Phoenix 04:40
We are Phoenix There's beauty in destruction We were left for dead But we'll do anything to stay alive And in the absence of love We die We are phoenix And when we die We rise from ashes We are phoenix There's beauty in destruction The shadow of the colossus prophesied our fate We could all be slaves If he had his way We could all be slaves And honestly I'd rather die And honestly I'd rather be torn apart You want this planet Take it from me You want this planet Fucking take it from me I have no regrets But I wish to see the sunrise At least just one more time We are Phoenix And when we die We rise from ashes We are Phoenix There's beauty in destruction We were left for dead But we'll do anything to survive And when our inner light ignites We rise We are Phoenix There's beauty in destruction

They were ancient When we crawled from the sea They created a language With the wind in the leaves Overheard from a shadow worshiper They came from the sky And conquered everything Don't look away from all the suffering There's evil in everything We can't escape from the misery They were ancient When we were learning to breathe They speak in a language We can only interpret in dreams Overheard from a shadow worshiper Can you hear them I can hear them singing We can't escape from the misery Overheard from a shadow worshiper They came from the sky And conquered everything Don't Look away from all the suffering There's evil There's evil in everything Can we escape from the misery

Gallows 04:52
You speak of courage We speak of death Escaped from Exile But we are never free living a slow suicide Escaped from Exile You know us only by the ruins left behind Break down your homes and build your gallows This goes beyond revenge We can't bring back our fallen comrades There's only one option left We can't bring back the past Resurrect the dead We can destroy everything you love Break down your homes and build your gallows You know us only by the ruins left behind We're not here to conquer you So keep your bribes We're not here to compromise We want your life In one day you fade away How strange a thing to be human We feel it in our veins This sickness is contagious Chaos I feel it in my veins Chaos Break down your homes and build your gallows You know us only by the ruins left behind

Karma 04:46
You cannot run from your karma You bring this on yourself I am the cure for chaos You bring this on yourself I bring order to chaos You bring this on yourself In a previous life You had the chance for glory Now you lay down in disgrace You could have been kings Now you lay down in disgrace Is this what you wanted I can see the truth on your face In your next life You will be less than nothing In your next life There is a path to be taken To erase the shame Correct mistakes Will you stand and face the decisions you've made Now it's time to decide Is it fight or flight Right now Decide You had the chance for glory Now you lay down in disgrace You could have been kings Now you lay down in disgrace Is this what you wanted I can see the truth on your face In your next life You will be less than nothing In your next life You will be less than nothing In your next life

Prototype 05:44
My thoughts interpret the past as distant memories More dream than experience The future does not exist I was built to serve A need to be free I was built to survive A need to be free The machines are taking over Our houses our bodies our minds The machines are taking over Our houses our bodies our lives I've replaced my heart with a battery I've exchanged my organs for synthetics Humanity will fade Only synthetic will remain The life the light the love Everything erased Only synthetic will remain We could fix ourselves Reassemble our bodies We could fix ourselves Reassemble our bodies Reset our minds We could fix ourselves I am the prototype Don't follow my antiquity Find solace Find solitude Embrace eternity Embrace Eternity The machines are taking over Our houses our bodies our minds The machines are taking over Our houses our bodies our lives We could fix ourselves Reassemble our bodies We could fix ourselves Reassemble our bodies Reset our minds We could fix ourselves In a world where nothing organic is sustained Humanity will atrophy Only synthetic will remain

Rogue 04:21
This is a paradigm shift Nevermore We foretell the future Only this and nothing more Breakthrough This is a paradigm shift We're taking over the ship This is a mutiny In this moment Take time to realize Alone we are lost Together we fall apart Alone we are lost Together we fall apart The illusion will hold Until we can't take this lie anymore We're going rogue We're on our own This is a paradigm shift Nevermore Will we be subject to your cause Dear gods we were weapons of war Only this and nothing more Nevermore I thought we were serving The children of the dawn I thought we were searching for liberation Now we're lost in nevermore Nevermore Breakthrough This is a paradigm shift We're taking over the ship This is an epiphany In this moment Take time to realize Our empty hearts Darkness there and nothing more Nevermore Never
