By Example 03:43
Can you see without your eyes? Can you tell the truth from lies? Can you read the subtle signs - messages between the lines? And can you hear without your ears? Detect danger as it nears? Keep away from unseen fears Can you think with no mind - no facilities? Lead yourself (before taking me) Resist hell (never give in) Can you think with your own mind - leaving prejudice behind? Taking in the truth you find? Set yourself free. Can you live with your own life - navigate the dark of night? Turning weakness into might Lead yourself (before taking me) Resist hell (never give in) We all need and we all bleed - no one sees We all sink if we don’t swim - life or death We all feed a certain greed - make your own We all live and we all die - take your time Time takes us all Make yourself (before making me) Learn life well (and teach another) Time will tell (if you ask it) Make yourself (while you’re still here)

Buried 04:36
If the world you want is out of reach You better get ready to learn before you preach to me! Demystify; find what you’re missing The louder you shout, the less we listen Technology can claim your time Yet time can claim your life Decay; entropy will consume us all But the time we have is the time to stand tall Technology can claim your time And time will claim your life Knowledge and wisdom we claim to find Buried in a pit of strife Technology will take your time And time will take your life Knowledge and wisdom we think we find Buried in a pit of strife

Give In 05:20
Is your life a simple thing to enjoy while you can? Or is it serious stuff to carry out the plan? Do you forge a path out of wherever you’ve been? Would you change it all, if you could choose once again? You shape yourself, your enemies, your friends. Reality hard as rock, yet it ever bends Is your life played on a screen or are you in control? Maybe it’s just better to give in to the flow Ooooh whoah whoah just give in to the flow Whoah ooooh whoah yeah just give in to the flow Shine your own light - Sing your own song Maybe it’s right - it can’t be wrong It’s up to you - so take control But when it’s not just give in to the flow Guess you didn’t ask, or it came too fast But things have gotten strange - it’s time for a change We’ll survive this stuff - we always do Just stick with me and I’ll stand by you Shine your own light - Sing your own song Maybe it’s right - it can’t be wrong It’s up to you - so take control But when it’s not just give in to the flow Ooooh whoah whoah just give in to the flow Whoah ooooh whoah yeah just give in to the flow Will you follow me for miles and years? I’ll do my best, despite our fears Maybe I don’t know which path is true Whichever we choose, it’s better with you Shine your own light - Sing your own song Maybe it’s right - it can’t be wrong It’s up to you - so take control But when it’s not just give in to the flow Well, I don’t know everything - don’t even know what I think But I can still sing when I’m on the brink Shine your own light - Sing your own song Maybe it’s right - it can’t be wrong It’s up to you - so take control But when it’s not just give in to the flow Shine your own light - Sing your own song Maybe it’s right - it can’t be wrong It’s up to you - so take control But when it’s not just give in to the flow

Breathe in the air Choke out despair Take me in, let me out Trust in me without doubt Wear what you wear Take me, I'm ripe From death to life Ready to fight From death to life Darkness to light Death to life Take me, I'm ripe From death to life Ready to fight From death to life

Time is enemy to us all - By the time you see it, it’s too late To do anything - for time is running out Become stronger, yet still it’s taken a piece - of life and you’ll never get it back So just move on and become stronger still Wisdom persists in spite of time, Yet time pushes and in the end will overcome As all is consumed by entropy Consumed by disorder - All things to dust, in time Life eats life, death breeds death Time may change us, Time will take us Resist your fate, Time will just wait Use time as a tool to get stronger Just wait and see - wither and atrophy It comes around to bite your back A cold world of hard facts Listen to me - This prophecy You can’t beat it - Ignore or heed it It will break you, rend and take you The more you push - deeper it cuts Powerless - Against time Toe the line - Against time - Don’t be daunted You got what you deserved - You asked! Listen to me - This prophecy Can we defeat the demon of entropy? No!

You don’t have to be a wise man Just to see the future And you don’t have to know everything Just to know what you should And what is beautiful was never meant to last Y’just gotta seize it enjoy while it lasts Beautiful memories Take heart here today Might be the only today we have Break into song or dance Enjoy everything you can And what is wise and what is smart? You gotta be yourself whoever you are in your heart Beautiful memories Take a minute if you need to Just don’t fall apart All your life you strove to Be included in some part Whence did we come and why are we here? I think I have the answer let me whisper in your ear Beautiful memories Beautiful memories

Songs have an energetic feel, blending classic heavy metal with progressive, symphonic, death metal and doom metal tones.
