Catharsis 03:32
Black serpent Venom trap I am your servant And you are mine Mind control Oppression by fear Gave you my soul And you still take my tears Blood Will let me be Death Will set me free Why did I change? Should I just flee? This feeling is so strange But it's too late for me The grave is ready I am now pure Release my body My fate is secure Blood Will let me be Death Will set me free Why did I change? Should I just flee? This feeling is so strange But it's too late for me This hell I left This peace I meet I am your servant I'm at you're feet Blood Will let me be Death Will set me free Why did I change? Should I just flee? This feeling is so strange But it's too late for me Written by : Tiago Martins

The Exile 06:47
Lonely man Filled with regret Waiting to die alone A castle of nothing A spiral of emptiness I am forgotten Everyone has nothing But we all have everything The power to change The option to regret Start over, this is our new begging Destroy our dark past Our host cries Our earth weeps With numerous tries We become immortal creeps The 3 tomoe eye That sees everything Mourn our blackened skies That we destroy for nothing What happens now? Lonely man Filled with regret Waiting to die alone A castle of nothing A spiral of emptiness I am forgotten The 3 tomoe eye That sees everything Mourn our blackened skies That we destroy for nothing What happens now? The power to change The option to regret Start over, this is our new begging Destroy our dark past Our host cries Our earth weeps With numerous tries We become immortal creeps Written by : Tiago Martins

Rupture 05:19
Failure chases me, disappointment, I'm falling I lost another fight, perpetual, accepting Into this black hole again, I'm tired of running Angels deny me, forever rejected Always promising, you're faith betrayed Lies that I continue, my soul decayed The venom spreads, I wonder in silence The tears that destroy me, devours, erases me The start of death, the end of life The cycle ends, like sand in my hands As long as I breathe, I can hope for demise The everlasting anger, that burns in my eyes The song of Gaia, has been sung at dawn I was cursed, before I was born Always promising, you're faith betrayed Lies that I continue, my soul decayed The venom spreads, I wonder in silence The tears that destroy me, devours, erases me The start of death, the end of life The cycle ends, like sand in my hands Written by: Tiago Martins
4.
Imprisoned 04:37
This new begging This place I hate This lonely feeling I suffocate Can't feel myself no more Can't see your thoughts The half open door The heart that rots No place left to crawl The ending of it all My blood is sand My eyes are dust Biting the feeding hand In fake gods I trust The hell I dream It’s the hell I feel Illusion is over My mind's set to kill No place left to crawl The ending of it all Written by : Tiago Martins
5.
The Catalyst 04:09
Crawling through madness As if there is no sun Darkness eroding What have I become? Taking lives, as they are given Creating pain, as we fall Our scraped sky's cry To show we got nothing at all I am the catalyst The trigger, the gun I make things happen But I'm the weakest one Written by : Tiago Martins
6.
Obsolete 05:23
Denied by life
Crucified by pain
Salvation not found
Are we waiting in vain?

What is matter or time?
Why is life a grain of sand?
The universe is a wall
I am the wall
You are the wall
We are the wall

Nowhere to run
An ocean of sadness
No place to call our home
We embrace our own madness

We won't embrace

Believe the lies
Lose yourself 
Time flies
You'll mourn my death
 What is matter or time?
Why is life a grain of sand?
The universe is a wall
I am the wall
You are the wall
We are the wall

I won’t forget
I won’t forgive
The pain you caused
I was deceived

Fuck off!
Let me live
In my mind, I am what you did
And now I cry, unfortunate by you
Depraved by fate, and killed by death Written by : Mp & Tiago Martins
7.
What will I lose tomorrow? Can't see the light of day A world drowned in sorrow It's needless to say An action without consequence Like a bullet without a shell A glaze of indifference Magic without a spell All of our dreams Denied and broken It's not as it seems Our faith is stolen The rose that blossoms In the sky Kill our emotions And we don't know why An action without consequence Like a bullet without a shell A glaze of indifference Magic without a spell All of our dreams Denied and broken It's not as it seems Our faith is stolen Written by : Tiago Martins

Salvaging 05:36
If you look back You won't see me I'll erase myself From your memory Don't take a step Without walking You're sinking in You're falling down There is a barrier That erodes us There is a vacuum That seeds mistrust Salvage what you can Take all that's left I have no more plans You and I can't stand I've seen what you done I know my name Trying to brake me down You're killing me Down to my past I forsake my death All I see is you But I'm dead inside In hell I stand Waiting for you But in my grave I failed to live Written by: Mp & Tiago Martins
10.
Faking symptoms My own denial This false disease I'm on my knees Irregular pattern Cycle of frustration The choice you made The debt I’ve paid Rejecting your flesh You're rejecting yourself I always tried to help Even though you've put me through hell Your presence tires me I am no longer free I cast myself aside I lost my will, but I still have my pride The tears I dropped for you Don't mean that I gave up The years I lost for you You gave them all for lust Rejecting your flesh You're rejecting yourself I always tried to help Even though you've put me through hell Your presence tires me I am no longer free I cast myself aside I lost my will, but I still have my pride All the limits that you break All the memories that you take This hole in me is you I will never forget Written by : Tiago Martins
11.
My Redemption, begins today A self-consuming hate, I can't wash away You're becoming, a monster of lies A feeding Frenzy that will eat you alive To wake up again To fall down again Ignoring the pain You're falling again Your redemption ends my life now Failed creation! You're going down! Your conception, is full of hate My Redemption, ignoble trace! To wake up again To fall down again Ignoring the pain You're falling again Written by: Tiago Martins & Mp
