1. Voice of the Timeless ============================== Take center stage Cascade the crowd in a sea of stories Just as grand as they are false Another lie for masses Take center stage Envelope the crowd in mistranslations Opposite the truth Another lie for the masses Towers rise, but for how long, When empires have tried to stifle this song? We are the voices that are being drowned out We won't stop singing 'til His words resound out again In a worthless decree You vow to uphold the truth Another lie for the masses An avatar of one You clearly never knew This time, someone speaks up And calls you out A determined stance among the baying Of weakness and false hope For love is not found In the lies of men And faith is not strong When held up by a book We are the timeless that are searching for the answers We tell the truth amidst a sea of cancer We are the voices that are being drowned out We won't stop singing 'til His words resound out again For it's in love That we find truth 2. Philistine ============================== Just sit there and watch As I show you up And do what you Could never do I could swear I see the envy in your eyes Insults spew forth In a voice nobody Cares to hear Nobody wants to hear What do you have to show? What accomplishments are Yours to claim? Does anyone even know your name? The uncultured are unfit to judge Even the lightest stroke of the brush Let's see what you've done Let's see what brings your comments to merit Let's see what you've done You have nothing to show for yourself What lacks in your words Isn't something that can be faked I've heard this drivel before Just sit there and watch As I show you up And do what you Could never do Could never do And everytime I hear this I just can't help but laugh To have no talents of your own Yet criticize so fast What lacks in your words Isn't something that can be faked I've heard this drivel before, but A philistine's mind is his mistake 3. See Reason ============================== Was there a time when, when everybody knew What it would take to be a part of this world, But something more than one of the herd? I hear it every day The wailing of incessant decay My ears bleed from the inside out Amidst a noise so overplayed Am I the only one among us Who isn't blinded by misconception? Oh, help me, Aristotle Is your voice so far, far away? Was there a time when, when everybody knew What it would take to be a part of this world, But something more than one of the herd? I read it every night The mindless libel, another pointless fight My eyes, strained from the lack of thought Of the words within my sight Oh, help me, Socrates Are your words forgotten? Was there a time when, when everybody knew What it would take to be a part of this world, But something more than one of the herd? 4. A Well-Dressed Cannibal ============================== You eat our young Their flesh still rots away at your teeth The blood not even dry before you smile and Speak your lies "I'm looking out for you" you spew to your herd Still you can't tell the sheep from wolves It's been decades since we've seen that light That light you've basked in your whole life You've built your strong, hardy frame, all of this and more By feeding off our flesh, our blood, that you've convinced us so well We've given to you willingly for our benefit as well The bloodstained words of a well-dressed cannibal Stripped us of our flesh and bone, and cast us in a cell And claim we should be grateful to you I won't be grateful to you You've torn at me for far too long Still you insist you should have more You've grown so full, yet there's nothing left of Me, but you still hunger for more It's time to free ourselves from being consumed Stop you from tasting the meat you convince us so well We've given to you willingly for our benefit as well The bloodstained words of a well-dressed cannibal Stripped us of our flesh and bone, and cast us in a cell And claim we should be grateful to you You've grown so strong Now there's nothing left of me 5. Hallways ============================== Unhinged The clutter surrounds my feet I dare not to dream or wonder Lest I find myself ensnared Can't bring myself to focus Unless I lose something else in itself Amongst the storm of attentions I close me eyes, and the words race across like a river of lies So cold to the touch, these waters, but I can't stop to garner my warmth God help me, if I could only stay attentive These distractions beating down on my neck, mocking me in silent noise The clutter surrounds my feet I dare not to dream or wonder Lest I find myself ensnared Walls rise and lead me astray I must shake of my worst doubts Minotaurs stalk the hallways I know I must find my way out No map could help me here No compass to guide me here I grasp at anything, anything at all, that could help me through these mazes And with each step the air grows colder, and the pathways more absurd The clutter surrounds my feet I dare not to dream or wonder Lest I find myself ensnared Walls rise and lead me astray I must shake of my worst doubts Minotaurs stalk the hallways I know I must find my way out I turn around But this could not be from where I came I set my sights on a path, but it shifts and turns and leads me away These endless hallways These tattered walls Will be the end of me if I let them I can't let them Walls rise and lead me astray I must shake of my worst doubts Minotaurs stalk the hallways To steel myself, I shout I know I'll find my way out (I know, I know) I know I'll find my way out (I know I'll find my way out) 6. Undeserved Cure ============================== And I never could let go Of the vices that I hold So I sit and stare and wonder How you found light in my soul Static and lights were all I knew I'd turned away for so long, claiming my freedom in chains Breathing, but air never filled my lungs I lived my life choking on delusions, never reaching out And that's all I had to do And I never could let go Of the vices that I hold So I sit and stare and wonder How you found light in my soul I had nothing left to forfeit But had everything to gain The change is without question But outside, I'm still the same Walking alone, but you're still there Alas, I feel it now, the wind sweeping by An undeserved cure, to rid me of all my ills I lived my life limping, never reaching out And that's all I had to do And that's all I had to do My nights spent wondering where I'd remain if I kept this path the same And that's all I had to do And I never could let go Of the vices that I hold So I sit and stare and wonder How you found light in my soul I had nothing left to forfeit But had everything to gain The change is without question But outside, I'm still the same And that's all I had to do I live as I walk, but know that I deserve nothing I live as I walk, but know that I deserve nothing I felt I had the knowledge of all I was meant to know My life had more ideas, more truths in which to show And then you announced your presence, lifting my head to the sky I knew of death impending, yet you claim I'll never die I had nothing left to forfeit But had everything to gain The change is without question But outside, I'm still the same 7. A Thousand Lives ============================== I have walked Through the verdant fields of Hyrule And the charred, smoking roads of Reach Across the Wasteland of the Mojave I have fought Against the best wielders of Soul Edge Against the legions of the Reapers Against the minions of Neo Zeed And it never ends! I've ridden horseback down to Chuparosa I've been the King of Iron Fist I've come on top in the Liandri Tournaments A thousand lives, I've done all this! And it never ends! I have snuck Through an army of Genome Soldiers Past the Ogawara guard Past the henchmen of Zhao Yun Ru I blasted my way Through countless Robot Masters Through the troops of the Commonwealth Through the thugs of Comando Sombra And it never ends! I've run at lightspeed through the loops of Mobius I've knifed the Russians in Paris Escorted refugees across the Shiverpeaks A thousand lives, I've done all this! Jumping through the Mushroom Kingdom Saving the princess (I've done all this!) Adventured across Cyrodiil and Looted every chest (I've done all this!) I've saved Neo Tokyo from the Galaxy Gang (I've done all this!) So many worlds I've stepped foot on Not one of them the same (I've done all this!)
