1.	Paradise Lost 07:53	lyrics
Disillusioned mind brings chills A smile within my daily pill Loss of sleep makes me ill Impossible to just stand still Am I the only one afraid? Why did, my mind, this thought pervade? Fences erect where flowers laid Is this prison one I've made? Does God extend his hand to the wicked and the damned? Playing mistress to trepidation, I fall further from elation Counting all that I've done wrong, I see the list is growing long When being jocund becomes my vice, I think I've lost my paradise Sweaty palms with slight incisions Curled up in fetal position Voices whisper somber truths Innate need to find a roof Veil my woes in sheets of laughs But who will write my epitaph? Sable goddess kiss my head When I wake up, will I be dead?
2.	Terrigen Mists 05:54	lyrics
There's a galaxy waiting for the divine Celestial solace beyond my grasp there're ethereal smiles to guide your passage I lost my ticket in my moral lapse Ode to mother, she's a house of gold We desecrate her love, bend her arms and make her fold 'till we see perfectly There's no mother quite like she There's a milky way that paints the sky When the sun absconds for a rest There's a pestiferous throng that's landed on mother It's made its home on her breast We're no children, we're executioners Banging down on mother's chest Wanting it to implode Still we see perfectly The dying galaxy
3.	Increasing Entropy 08:28	lyrics
Temperatures rising, but people are colder still A long way from the ashes, but still very far down hill Ignorance blinds you blissfully, I wish I couldn't see The ruins of your city, and those below me. Every day, I grow jaded and exasperated Hold me now before I fall to apathy Every time I look into your eyes World of black, crowned again, increase entropy What lurks in the darkness is not as frightening as what poisons the light Shadows across the hall, a bomb on your homeward flight Snap back to symmetry, A suicidal shade precariously perched A bullet from the legislative, a sanguinary sect in the church "Don't hang on. Just let go" Every day, I grow jaded and exasperated Hold me now before I fall to apathy Every time I look into your eyes World of black, crowned again, increase entropy
4.	Eye of the Sun 06:42	lyrics
I lull in suspended sunrise Intervals of white within the sable landscape Wrapped up in a blanket of space Warmed by the heat of the sun Vitriol has condemned the Stars They align tonight for the gallows Abysmal eye beckons to me I descend into the shadows. And I see god Can you see the markings in the sky? Illustrations of a thoughtless child Dangling innocently by a noose Repugnant is now what once would beguile The sunset is scored by thunder The child is torn asunder Bound in shackles of thought Held down by what I bought And I see naught Eye of the sun Invisible to you, yet it's all I see What's insubstantial to you caves in on me Poisoned mind, nefarious visions I find Found in shackles that bind How do you expect me to climb? I am the sun
