THIS DEAFENING WHISPER LYRICS

1. Awakening

2. The Curse

Suffer, is such an empty word, an anemic notion
Compared to what I endure day after day
I am the one, who hears the lies and feels the cries
Like cuts of blades and ice within my mind

What the fuck, have the stars done?
For when I was born, I was in their sights
Why cursing me with the gift of sight?

No point in knowing the truth
If you can’t change the facts

If only I could stop the voices by cutting off my ears
Or rip out my eyes to prevent these visions I fear

No point in knowing the truth
Its all for nothing
If you can’t change the facts
Like living in a future past

Nothing can heal the sadness
Of witnessing a tragedy no less than twice
And all the eyes, of my peers are divided between
The haters, the non-believers and the followers
I try to push it back inside, as if the choice was mine
What should I expect from life? It’s the only thing I can’t forecast

Hope, trust and love are for the dead
I’ve seen enough to know we’re damned

Under oath I will, spit my truths at the world
What I used to care for, now feeds my apathy
I am the voice of the fallen, not knowing yet, not fearing yet
I’m just a slave of fate, a messenger to the maker’s will

No point in screaming my truths
If I can’t heal the wounds

I refuse, to keep on living this way
This is not a life, this is a stride

What the fuck, have the stars done
For when I was born, I was in their sight

3. Doves And Crows

As forlorn as tomorrow seems,
And as bleak as the road ahead is,

They feed your soul that the worst is already behind
But the ugly truth is hiding behind two masks

No hero, no vigilantes left on your side
You’ve cast away
Our will to save the ashes of this burning town
I’ll watch the flames, from my outdated throne

A still born constitution, that’s what guides your way
In a dog eat dog world, eye for an eye prevails

What will it take to show you that
I am not your stupid Justice’s dove anymore
The white has turned to black
I’m a fucking Hitchcock crow now
Our thirst for blood is unquenchable
Our real motivation has never been the one they advertised

We were too good to be true
Our myth just misled you
You knew this day would come
When your heroes let you down

Discrown me, Discrown me
I’m the king of thieves if anything
Discrown me, just discrown me
I’m nothing but a freak, just as real as your comics

The ropes that bind my faith are starting to fray
My medals and my scars rest no longer on my chest

Doves and crows are at war inside my head
And I know, there are no heroes left

4. Heavy Heart

I’ve taught myself to believe in nothing
I’ve never put my faith in anything but me
But now it’s clear, that I need more

How could I be a beacon for the masses?
How could I guide a soul as I lead the way
Unsure and biased by my atheist pride ?

My heart is heavy and my eyes are welling

Face down; I watch this spring becoming a river
Splitting the earth in two

And there you were,
Bled out and naked
Freed from the purity
That your wings used to convey

Should I believe in you?
Or should I just
Should I just run?
It took an angel’s touch
To heal and breathe my faith back in

And as I stare at your Half-masted halo
I finally realize, that my eyes can lie
You may just be a side effect to this drug

A hallucination or divine enlightenment
But only a fool would doubt such a gift
Disbelieve is a breach

Against all odds and logic, I chose to believe
That there is still light in this darkness I’m in
Against all odds and logic, I chose to believe
That angels could only be the sign that I needed

Make me a believer, Make me a believer

Show me now, convince me now
Find me, Pick me, Lift me, Save me

5. Siren’s Strain

Carve a line in stone instead of drawing in the sand
Prevent the tide of progress to wash it all away

As giant monsters come to die on the shore,
For everyone to glare, for everyone to fear and stare

I see our human condition, encapsulated in a rusty snow globe
A microcosm, an Easter Island tragedy bis

The sirens are singing to lure us in
Like moths to flames
In our world, they’re ringing
The sirens are singing
Either ways it seems the end is near

For a hundred years my name was feared
My wrath and greatness torn the seas
What was my playground is now my grave
For I am just a white washed name

We’re all made of sand, what we cherish what we own
From the flea sized chip to the mile-high glass house
Our cities growing, the Empire’s spreading
The foundations of man are built on quicksand

I cannot wait to see you bleed
Amnesty please’ you’ll scream
Pour you down the drain, I will
See it all collapse like a house of cards
On thin ice for centuries you’ve lied

The sirens are singing to lure us in
Like moths to flames
But in our world, they’re ringing
Either ways it seems the end is near
When will our pride stop leading us by?

Empathy is a raft lost at sea

How long will this all last
Until the sea takes it all back?

Where the ocean meets the sky
That’s where, the answer lies

We’re all made of sand, what we cherish what we own
It takes an outside eye to see how blessed and ignorant we are, sailing adrift

6. As Brails To The Mast

7. Embrace The Brawl

It is on; the cloud of war is wrapping us all
This sets the end of an endless status quo
Choose wisely your weapons

For too long this lying world smothered you
Crisis after crisis, confusion’s settling in
The war within our walls is metaphorical

Nothing is out of reach when you don’t set your boundaries
When all is said and done
Stand tall for what you stand for

We all have something to lose, you’re no exception
The worst of time reveals the best in us all
So stand tall, and embrace this brawl

Nothing is out of reach when you don’t set your boundaries
When all is said and done
Your acts eclipse your words
Your values don’t mean shit if they’re not worth dying for
Once more
So scream on the top of your lungs
And stand tall for what you stand for

In hope for a better tomorrow
We have got to embrace
A declaration of war

A vision of prosperity, with the bitter taste of poverty
A misleading postcard of a shityard,
A pink and white implant, they thrust in your eyes

Assassination of our blood-earned human rights
These are the symptoms that we can’t take as facts

No loving arms to hold us up against the tides
No shoulders to lean our weary heads on

Stand tall for what you stand for

8. Deadly Antagonism

Goliath, colossus with feet of fleece

A man like me is only defined by his reflection in his enemy’s eyes
Every david needs his Goliath, to stand tall and follow a path
That hatred molded

All I know and all I see is the ill-fated irony, what more could I ask for ?
You were my reflection on a smoked mirror that lies now broken on the floor

The antithesis of myself as the media said, just tell me why, a part of me died with you, that night
Facing you was an endless combat with my image against the stained glass
The perfect symmetry and deadly antagonism

The final hit exploded it, shattering you to pieces leaving me here next to a wall, opaque and mute
You were the one, the scale of all evils were tipped but 6 feet underground,
both our legacies fade and rust.

I dreamt this day and pictured your fall, in every possible way and wicked scenario

You were a Russian doll, trapped inside something bigger than you;
your legacy ate you from the inside out.

All I know and all I see is the ill-fated irony, what more could I ask for?
You were my reflection on a smoked mirror that lies now broken on the floor

Is this what winning feels like? With the bitter taste of victory stuck in my throat,
I’m struggling
Is this what winning feels like, Goliath?

9. Unrest In Peace

The death of day is the womb of a cold night
Prepare your guns; the dead are coming to town

Cling on to your guts,
Keep an eye on your back
Issues are all shut
And they’re crawling in like rats

What’s left of their brains
Will be melting down in flames

Now that your mom was your brother’s very last meal
You feel the chaos of a life that seems so unreal
The city’s burning tonight
And you’re sitting on the ringside

Can you hear the crows, flying at the gates
The seven trumpets, ringing the very end

We were too proud to hear the signs
The coming of the fallen ones was heralded awhile back

What should be resting in peace
Decays now at our feet
And we’re too scared to run
And we’re too human to open fire

Prepare to soak up the entire pavement
I’ll blow your head up, whatever’s left of it

Come closer say hello to my new best friend
Look him down the barrel, don’t be afraid

I’ll keep just one bullet for myself

10. Datura

Can you help me understand?
What books and life have failed to teach me
Can you free me from the guilt?

For me to carry on

These fragments of memories are haunting my sleep
Turning to nightmares all the beauty of reckless dreams

And now I get it right
The warnings and the signs make sense now
I cannot change the fact
I’ve let you down

But now it’s all so quiet
The warnings and the signs make sense now
I’d kill myself tonight
To bury your head again, in my arms

And this is the part where I think I should feel sorry
But in this twirling chaos, emotions are spinning
I just don’t have the strength to beg your forgiveness
And I’ll never get that chance

I’ll silence their voices
I’ll silence their voices once and for all

It’s time, that I get this right
I’m a poison for you, a disease, a trap
I can’t change that fact, but I won’t hold anything back

11. Aesir To Mankind

12. Dealers Of Safety

Put a man on a pedestal
And praise his name beyond reason
Watch his ego steal the show
And his values turn to low

Our destiny is in our hands, again

We, the people
We, the free

When the ones we called our saviors
Are the ones that need assistance
That’s when you know
That the system is flawed
They’ll leave in silence

Never again,
Begging for assistance
Never again,
Letting our lives, at play
Into their shaky hands
They brought this plague on us
In the first place

When the ones we called our saviors
Are the ones that need assistance
That’s when you know
That the system is flawed
When the ones we called our saviors
Let us down

Our destiny is in our hands, again
We, the people
We, the free

Violation of our rights,
Propagation of their deadly lies,
Indignation of the masses,
Abolition of this non-sense, ending it all

When the ones we called our saviors
Are the ones that need assistance
That’s when you know
That the system is flawed
When the ones we called our saviors
Let us down

We will now fight the crime, as one
It’s in our hands,
We take the reins from there

This city is ours again

Let the symbols burn one by one
Tear up their capes, rip their masks off
Make this madness stop!

We don’t need you anymore
We don’t need you anymore
Yeah
We don’t need you anymore

Let the symbols burn down
