The Fall 04:38
There's a Spirit calling out No mindless wonder in this world of doubt A Reality more real than this Deception will steal our minds of bliss. No strength within myself It was all spent when mankind fell The sting of death entered in We started to die when we began. The father of lies, the tempter's crown Unrighteous souls will keep us bound But innocent blood shed from Thee The stripes You wore were for me. I long to understand What the Creator has done for man Can our feeble minds comprehend? We started to die when we began.

Never Die 04:29
I spent my time dying hard With no satisfaction in my heart I pushed and I shoved until I cracked Now He lives in me and I won't turn back. Ride on, follow the Son Never die, life's just begun Don't hand me your deceiving lies He is the Father and Son Lay Your hands upon my chest Make my heart beat hard like piston heads I know where I'm going, He knows who I am It's written in blood, truth never ends.

Dead 05:18
Please don't say he smiled alot Now they've layed me to rest A wretched heart and a mind to match Finally peace in my death. However morbid it may sound This world held nothing for me By the grave and a twinkling eye I have reached my destiny. My life has passed in front of my eyes A vapor in time, I lived and I died. No more depression trying to disguise Freed from the body that tortured my mind. No one ever knew the inner tears that fell Bottled up inside a living prison cell. Though the Father of freedom saved my very soul Years of corruption never let go.

Baby, do you understand me now? Sometimes I feel a little mad Well don't you know no one alive can always be an angel? When things go wrong I seem to be bad I'm just a soul whose intentions are good Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood Baby, sometimes I'm so carefree With a joy that's hard to hide And sometimes it seems that all I have to do is worry And then you're bound to see my other side I'm just a soul whose intentions are good Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood If I seem angry, I want you to know That I never mean to take it out on you Life has it's problems and I get my share That's one thing I never mean to do...because I love you Hey, don't you know I'm human? I have thoughts like any other one Sometimes I find myself alone and regretting Some foolish thing, some little simple thing I've done I'm just a soul whose intentions are good Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

Lying alone, looking to the sky My pulsating veins and my bulging eyes. I think about decisions that I've made I can't take it no more and it's got to break I want to know why I live in disgust Only thinking of hate and corruption Can't I leave these things behind? And go from this world of hate and destruction Darkness shines around my thoughts; I believe my mind is dead What I find in peace of mind gives me the feeling of dread I walked alone, on my own I didn't have a hand to hold The door was slammed but I found the key I can leave this world, forever be free

... 02:20
Do you know how it feels, When you wish to live no longer? Do you know how it feels, To have been took by someone stronger? You know you've got to die to live on And when your time is near Will you ever be sure? Can you see things quite clear? (also known as the outro to "Sinister" originally by Pentagram)
7.
As my world crumbles all around me I search for answers lying within What a fool I've been to not have seen What once was mine, the love she gave And so I bear the pain of an unwanted life The birth of mind broken down in pieces This infliction of my misery My body lives but my heart and soul I've cheated Never again will I know such love Such emotion only once could I find Now in detachment, I'm drifting away Execution for my blindness but I've been granted a stay I can't carry on this self-injustice Time feels so ripped and torn Dreams, all my everything Tears, closer to the end of mourn Age is upon me, I live and learn There's a light out there at every turn What a fool I've been to not have seen What is mine, the love she gives
8.
Return 04:34
Last night I lay dreaming Of days and nights gone by My heart was drowning Underneath a bridge of sighs Return to Me Return to Me my child Return to Me Return to Me my child I wept within a vision Followed with a will Saw Him there, His cross to bear And I am grieving still! Conception of a disappointment In an afterbirth of sin Wasted years of denial Too much pride and the fear of man
9.
Rise up my love My fair one, come away For lo, the winter's past The rain is gone, it did not stay Open up, my love Perfect one, my love Until the day breaks The shadows flee away Ravish my heart with the look of your eyes How much better your love than wine! Oh my love, so beautiful Lovely, as Jerusalem Turn your eyes away from me For they have overcome, overcome me Open up to me my love My dove, perfect one For my head is covered with dew My locks with drops of the night
