The walls are moving closer now Can you feel it, can you feel it? You are not saved until you see the dawn Set my Eden on fire now You did it, you did it Smoked out my soul once and for all I′m coming home tonight Can we make it right? Or twist the dagger in my back You lit the fires in me that I never thought I had Now it′s nothing but a memory...
BE PATIENT, SOMEDAY THIS PAIN WILL BE USEFUL TO YOU BE PATIENT, SOMEDAY THIS PAIN WILL SETTLE DEEP IN YOU
The helix is shattered now You broke it The destruction of my entire essence Drink the nectars of the shadow flower now Contaminated And sit back as it reaches for your heart
Deep in you In the excavation of my human heart I found something Something that I never knew existed...
Have you lost your way? Livin′ in the shadow of the messes that you made And so it goes Everything inside your circle starts to overflow Take a step before you leap Into the colours that you seek You′ll get back what you give away So don′t look back on yesterday
Wanna scream out No more hiding Don′t be afraid of what′s inside Gonna tell ya you′ll be alright In the Aftermath Anytime anybody pulls you down Anytime anybody says you′re not allowed Just remember you are not alone In the Aftermath
You feel the weight Of lies and contradictions that you live with every day It′s not too late Think of what can be if you rewrite the role you play Take a step before you leap Into the colours that you seek You give back what you give away So don′t look back on yesterday
Wanna scream out No more hiding Don′t be afraid of what′s inside Gonna tell ya you′ll be alright In the Aftermath Anytime anybody pulls you down Anytime anybody says you′re not allowed Just remember you are not alone In the Aftermath In the Aftermath
Before you break you have to she′d your armor Take a trip and fall into the glitter Tell a stranger that they′re beautiful So all you feel is love, love All you feel is love, love
Wanna scream out No more hiding Don′t be afraid of what′s inside Wanna tell you you′ll be alright In the Aftermath
Wanna scream out No more hiding Don′t be afraid of what′s inside Gonna tell ya you′ll be alright In the Aftermath
Anytime anybody pulls you down Anytime anybody says you′re not allowed Just remember you are not alone In the Aftermath In the Aftermath Gonna tell ya you′ll be alright In the Aftermath In the Aftermath Just remember you are not alone In the Aftermath
Droning winds sang my name in choirs so silent and grievous Imploring me to awaken, to enlighten my moonlit eyes Famished, grinning in pain, branded stiff by those scorching rays In vicious grief these tears I shed, when beholding my fallen realm In shadows entangled, in solitude I mourn Cold hymns of obedience engulves my resurrected soul Feed me... fill my lungs with the souls of the sacrificed ones Worship... call for the black god aftermath, call for my return
Aftermath... call for my return!
As the son of the elders I′ll see As a descendant of the dark breeds the hate I feel Only my own cries of vengeance I hear Obey, speak my name! Bow before me... I′m the one who′ll stand by the throne Of fire born with darkness within Behold my call for this night that soon shall fall...
Raising the chalice for the black god aftermath, to it′s glory and grace
Bring the damned souls into me, bring the virgin′s blood to invoke me! Hear my hunger, listen to the nocturnal preaching of mine Shadow wings embrace the earth, lay the land forever in dusk Unveil me, the faceless one... The one forlorn and once dethroned Let my gimness be unleashed, set free the holocaust with me Cold humns of obediance unchains my wrath upon the earth Arrival... the birth of an era obscured by sulphur and flames
Aftermath... call for my return!
Now brimstone fills the black nights, since aeons riding these winds Still, the black god aftermath prevails
