In solitude and darkness he is taken. The light flickers upon a shadow in front of him. It does not speak, it does not bend, and slowly moves closer.
Just before a glove covers his mouth he lets out a scream of fear, growing ever distant in the night, but the trees stand guard and keeps it from finding a saviour.
The footsteps of the devil are almost all that is heard, and a light scraping of his prey follow into the void. Scraping, steps, dirt, and dust.

A vision of clarity
Comes with the division of view
Nothing but the projected thoughts
When the blind arise and alter this life
And in the caves of our minds our demons awaken
An open throat scream at our indifferent world
Torn from flesh, a timeless decay
Unto the stream of inexistence
Shredded spirit fading away
Are you open to the world around you
Is reality clearer when nothing stands in the way
To whom it concerns the pain is endless
But to those blinded in security this is only passing

Drawn awake by a loss of breath
Feeding the glow dancing on the tapestry
In his mind a feeling stirs
Something seeping, something strange
An acid stench of ash rising from the bottom floor
Bright notes appear, vibrating in the light
In the depths of his home his mistakes are held high
In here there is peace and clarity
Brought down from his fear and desperate hopes
This death comes expected and without loss
Nothing will be saved for me, all shall be lost
And with reawoken purpose he stares at the abyss

Violation at every level keeps the soul at a loss. With every opening door there is growing and waning trust.
Violation at every level keeps the soul at a loss. And when the shadows may fold around you the void seems all you can trust.
With a fading whimper all but knowing escapes you. And the window in your cell seems to bring the stars closer.
With every opening door it may end, and there there is nothing but the ever growing trust.

In the midst of the station, shadows of clouds
Sharp, directional lights flow down the track
The fog thickens, her vision now focused
Wether or not she may still live, she lets go
Gone are the dreams she kept too tightly
A scattering echo on the station walls
Steps of desperation by the fence
The air stops moving, a wall of coldness breaks through their path
In the instant the driver can see, this time ends
A lifetime lost in the shadows held dear
She chose not to choose and she holds no fear
As her splattering brain covers the window
All that was her is taken away
Do you reach for her now, when the world has moved on
In a monstruos pace like the train, without a care
Our place corrodes and our choices put aside
Ours will allways dissappear, so will our ideals in time
The broken bones of those fighting out of fear

Philosophical Breakdown

The human race is in the midst of many great steps in its evolution.
The way we act among ourselves is changing drastically.
Some cling desperately to the old, some move on forward, and some move around
in the in-between area, disconnected from the flock.
We are corroding our stereotypes, we are changing our society, as we always have.
It's a journey beyond any other that we will truly experience but sadly we will always be forced to only see
a glimps of it all, a frame of reality as it passes us by into the neverending existance.

Under the weight of our world even hell must collapse, and with shouting and screaming not one demon lasts.
The running steps of madmen aflame as their reason relapses unto crumbling minds. And there you find hope, among the desperate few men.
You gather the air and let go a muffled scream. With feet on the soil, scraping and hurting. Your soul seems revived and crawling for mercy.
You struggle and pull every limb, every muscle. But the rope still holds, you do nothing but shuffle.
And then the world is torn apart.

Aflame as it tells of my wrongdoing
Without the life which I have chosen
Dragging me down
judging, repeating words
What may escape my broken lips could never comfort them now
So many others would have lived another life or more
Another life for me, another taken, nothing gained
Dragging me down
Visions and memories
I have forsaken
Without reason
And nothing is what remains
So many others would have lived another life or more
Judge me, take me down
Without reason
What is taken is with fear
The inner monologue will not silence
And it screams at me...

We're far enough, unsheathe your blade. Ripples and waves as the man is let free.
It all ends with a sigh.
And then time took it all back.
