Intro 00:29
It's in your hands!

Ruin 03:31
Don't let this world Fade away We hold in our hands, the choice To make our mark. Or simply decay All thoughts of fondness will flee the minute we lay down and recede Future generations will only look back on us with disgust For it will be their world then (But it is our world now) Don't fall into the shadows of the crowd (Open your eyes, they're scared) That we might figure it out We are the heart and the soul It's time to take back control. I for one will not bow down to the tyrants sitting atop their thrones Safe and sound In their cities of gold We are heading for ruin But we could be more (We can be more) We are heading for ruin Dare to dream Open your hearts to sing We create our own destiny Who will we be? Who will you be?

Auroras 03:09
Above auroras Fill my eyes Dancing across the skies Blindingly beautiful They caress my mind Colours intertwine forever never ceasing to shine Every new day brings with it the choice to love free from the negativity we breed When did our strive to live die? We are alive! How did that slip our minds? We have all forgotten how to love without the hate. We have allowed triviality To reign In this world where we have all forgotten what it means to truly Live life blissfully Every new day brings with it the choice to love free from the negativity we breed Step back and watch them shine Auroras fill the skies Step back and watch them shine Colours intertwine forever Colours intertwine forever never ceasing to shine Auroras Fill my eyes

Hunter 03:55
Pushed aside and suppressed Slipping through the cracks (Of your own consciousness) Surrounded by ghosts of what has come to pass Your mind twists and bends wishing each breath to be your last You're living as prey Let every moment shine For fleeting are the hands upon the cracked face of time. Bleh Fleeting are the hands of time Oh Love your life upon this earth Your past does not equal your worth The future is yours to shape. Your will, never let it break If you're tired of being pushed to the last of the pack Bare your teeth and run with the wolves Never Looking Back! Become the hunter Life is not infinite Make the fucking most of it. Become the hunter

Fearless 04:28
It must be hard Waking in fear of becoming everything you have ever dreamed Never reaching for the heights you've only soared in your sleep Continuously told Time and time again That you'll only fall That mediocrity is what your future holds. Don't let it slip through Don't let that feeling die It's burning in your heart Its high time you spread those wings and reached for the heights you've only soared in your sleep The stars, they are yours to claim Realise your dreams Just because you're breathing, Does not mean you're living life Don't fear becoming Everything you are inside Despite what people may say This is your life Be you and only you in every way Don't let it slip Through Don't let that feeling die It's burning in your heart Its high time you spread those wings and reached for the heights You've only soared in your dreams The stars They are yours to claim Realise your dreams Don't let it slip through Don't let that feeling die It's burning in your heart This is your life Despite what people may say Be you and only you Don't let it slip through Don't let that feeling die it's burning in your heart It's high time you spread those wings and reached for the heights You've only soared in your dreams The stars They are yours to claim Realise your dreams.

Hands Bound 04:18
Whoever said this was set in stone? A life controlled you can never call your own I'd rather live my life with a mind sound Than to dream in the clouds with my hands bound Their tongues spill dishonesty But their eyes tell no lies With words they speak so heavenly Yeah! Their voices echo the void in sleepwalking minds Becoming nothing more Than another pawn upon their board. Becoming nothing more than another pawn upon their board I forever swore My heart would never be burdened By their wars For this my heart beats ever harder I will never be their martyr For this my heart beats ever harder I will never be their fucking martyr oh Whoever said that this was set in stone Set in stone A life controlled you can never call your own Superiority is what they claim The truth is every heart beats the same Our peace our freedom lay in equality A rose by any other name Our hearts beat the same Our peace our freedom lay in equality A rose by any other name Our hearts beat the same A rose by any other name Our hearts beat the same.

Like Kings 03:10
Beauty lay in this world we perceive It is wasted on their eyes for all they see is opportunity To further their destructive ways To feed the greed A monolithic era is what we've dreamed Man made structures Redefine our skyline Blocking sun from soil Where life now fails Why can't they see Why can't they see Why can't they see That this hell they speak of So fearfully, Is exactly what this world will be Why can't they see That this hell they speak of Is exactly what this world will be if we keep killing to feed our greed Stop dying to consume everything Killing to feed your greed A monolithic era is what we've dreamed The greed of humanity Has redefined Our existence Peace died the day we decided to live like kings Tear down their walls Let the light shine in Life will prevail again When we behead the kings. Behead the kings

Flourish 04:46
We are the architects of our own demise Breeding hatred like a spreading disease Afflicting those of a closed mind Time wasted searching for the cures of the ailments of this world When all we have to do is look in the fucking mirror Closed minded people live out their lives In darkness Never seeing the light Where did we go wrong We have blacked out the sun for too long It's time to start acting like we fucking belong Further bettering the quality of our own lives By destroying life I see no sense I see no reason Killing Season After season Will you break free, fight for change or sit back and just play your part in the clot, that's choking the life from our worlds once thriving once flourishing heart. Will you be the beginning Or the end. It's your hands
