Impressions of an Empire

Everything leads to nothing
All things you've seen they mean nothing
All thoughts you ever had have led you nowhere
Every bit of fear you ever had means nothing
Compared to the lives lived and lost here
I still hear their desperate cries
They cut right through my skin and I wonder
Have you ever been down at the bottom of the barrel.
Felt like you needed help but you never needed any
Always reaching out for someone
Just anyone
But life isn't shining you in the eyes
It's out there with someone
And you're stuck here with darkness and no one
There is no light at the end of the tunnel
It's just stories beautiful bedtime stories
for us to fall asleep
for them to let life go
Just one final step away just one final breath
Just one final step towards
Towards that road that leads to the place that they call nowhere
He's waiting patiently to tell you one last story
Just one, just one final story
Just one just one just one

Fading Out

She stood by the side of the lake
Looking at her father
looking at the man who raised her
She followed him on his last late night walk
His final late night out
As a tear quietly hit the earth
She realised what was happening
The man who put her on this planet
He was ready to give in
You're leaving me and mom all alone
All the times you sadly told me to be strong
That I should embrace all the good things crossing my path
That was just a mask of a drunk old man
Meaningless words drenched in booze
She was screaming without a sound
I think it's time for me to go home I think my mother needs me
It looks you don't longer need us
This still water will bring you where you wanna be
This still water will bring you back where you wanna be
And I won't tell mom you said goodbye
That would be a lie, cause you never did
And the darkness surrounding us
Has always been a part of us
And the black moon shining down on us
Has always been a part of us
And mother leaves a light on
If only she knew
If only my brother was still alive
I can’t carry this burden
All alone

Black Ponds

Still water till the leaves fall down
Setting things in motion
The reflection of the sunlight
Brings you back to where you wanna be
Mentally but physically it's impossible
You're a wreck smacked down by life
Why me is this where it ends for me
Why me.
This pond with trembling water
This is the the place where the lost souls go
This is the place where we meet again
I can't remember how I got here
But I know it did not end tonight
Bring me back to where it all went wrong
So I can make things right again
Bring me back to where it all went wrong
So I can make everything right again
But as the sun goes down
I'm just another victim of the night my friend
But as the sun goes down
But as the sun goes down

Breathe think live
Understanding life
Breathe think live
All I’m asking why?
Please destroy me
Please don't remember who I was
This house I've build for us
Leave it open 'till the end of days
Cause with you disappearing
All beauty I've ever known
Has walked away from me
All that remains, the memories
Of what you meant to me
These are growing cold
Like this fast wind blowing through our house
Have I just become
A person just like them?
Breathe think live
Understanding life
