This Consequence

Tracklist

• 1. Abandon Us (03:38)
   copy

  By my own volition, isolated and set free
  The symptom of your violence and the dissident in me
  Untrusting of the promise of a figurehead to lead
  When they've broken all their promises and left us here to bleed
  To bleed
  
  Abandon us
  You turned your backs on all of us
  Abandoned us
  All we had
  Reduced to dust
  
  Use your intuition
  Awaken from your sleep
  How many years controlled by fear?
  The fallacies run deep
  
  Contention, contention
  Diverted, diverted
  Democracy is deserted
  
  Abandon us
  You turned your backs on all of us
  Abandoned us
  All we had
  Reduced to dust
  
  Can't you see
  The urgency?
  Spiraling uncertainty
  There must be change
  So we can save
  Save ourselves from divergency
  
  Yet, here we are
  Left to bleed
  You abandoned us
  
  Abandon us
  You turned your backs on all of us
  Abandoned us
  All we had
  Reduced to dust
• 2. Discordant Nation (02:40)
   copy

  Living through discoordination in our society
  A boiling point of our frustration and mass anxiety
  Anyone can see undeniably diversion is the new disorder
  Forced complacency
  Assimilated to the syndicate
  
  Kill all your sympathy in this discordant nation
  Yield to and bend the knee to this discordant nation
  
  Creating a nation that's controlled by fear and alienation
  
  Kill all your sympathy in this discordant nation
  Yield to and bend the knee to this discordant nation
  
  It breaks us down
  
  Sterilizing the compassion in your heart
  Will you let it all?
  Will you let it all tear us apart?
  
  Kill all your sympathy in this discordant nation
  Yield to and bend the knee to this discordant nation
• 3. Aftermath (03:38)
   copy

  Will we die alone?
  Now we've been left for dead
  At the behest of the words unsaid
  The crux of survival from the heart to hands
  Eradication of our promised land
  
  We're reeling from the aftermath
  Still bleeding from the damage of the past
  We're reeling from the aftermath
  That feeling that it's just out of our grasp
  
  This is the consequence
  A people lost and dispossessed
  We were misled
  Left for dead
  But you can't give in to despair
  
  We're reeling from the aftermath
  Still bleeding from the damage of the past
  We're reeling from the aftermath
  That feeling that it's just out of our grasp
  
  I'd give my life
  I'd give my life to change this
  But you can't see through the lies
  I'd give my life
  I'd give my life to save you
  But I can't turn back the time
  Turn back the time
  
  We're reeling from the aftermath
  Still bleeding from the damage of the past
  We're reeling from the aftermath
  Aftermath
  That feeling that it's just out of our grasp
  
  I'd give my life to change this
  But you don't see through the lies
  I can't turn back the time
  But I still try
• 4. Forever Aligned (04:05)
   copy

  Wander through this desolation, the emptiness inside
  The venom of this isolation begins to claim its prize
  A part of me only you could see
  To save this wretched wounded man from all consuming grief
  
  Breathing a new vitality
  Give me a place to rest
  Connecting the deepest depths of me
  Now my tongue must confess
  
  It's you I find
  Forever in my mind
  We are aligned inside
  Forever in my mind
  We are aligned
  
  When my breath begins to tremble, swallowed by this dread
  I feed me to the wolves that linger in the shadows of my head
  Find a pain in me, it will bleed eventually
  Face to face with what must change
  Killing this deceit
  
  Pull me
  Pull me from the depths
  Save me
  Save me from defeat
  Deliver me a revelation to find a new
  A new belief
  
  It's you I find
  Forever in my mind
  We are aligned inside
  Forever in my mind
  
  All you can see eternally
  Connection of spirit and what's in between this life
  I find forever in my mind
  
  Calculating divinity to understand the spirit unseen
  Now we are aligned
  We are aligned
  
  And it's you I find forever in my mind
  We are aligned inside
  Forever
  We are aligned
  We are aligned
  We are aligned
  We are aligned
• 5. I Believe (03:54)
   copy

  Covering the truth inside us
  Giving into spite
  Self inflicted paranoia hindering our sight
  
  Lose track of what used to drive you to make you feel alive
  That part of yourself that gave you the willingness to fight
  
  Some people will say it's part of life
  I chose to refuse to let it slide
  Finding faith in these dark times
  Keeping hope alive
  
  I believe there is hope for better days
  I believe we will conquer what we face
  
  Discovering the faith inside us,
  Save us from despair
  No matter what this world will tell you,
  Do not live in fear
  
  Learn to let the light guide you
  Let go of the pain
  You can't kill the passion in me
  My devotion remains
  
  I believe there is hope for better days
  I believe we will conquer what we face
  
  Come what may the light will guide my way
  Come what may I won't be led astray
  
  Do you believe that something can renew your strength
  When you find it you stop at nothing,
  It's in every word you say
  So keep the faith
  
  The light will guide my way
  I won't be led astray,
  And nothing will stand in my way
  
  I believe I believe that there is hope
  I believe there is hope for better days
• 6. Where It Dies (03:27)
   copy

  This is where it dies
  Wasted too much time deciphering the lies
  Defending who I thought you were inside
  Vilified anyone who tried to expose the bitterness that you hide
  
  Now you're caught in your own stalemate
  No one left to manipulate
  It left me drained
  As I watched you change
  
  I see who you've become
  It's too late for your repentance
  Now our trust is undone
  So you will suffer
  Suffer my vengeance
  
  You, drown in your misery
  You, now you are dead to me
  
  I see who you've become (Who you've become)
  It's too late for your repentance
  Now our trust is undone
  So you will suffer
  Suffer my vengeance
  
  You, drown in your misery
  You, now you are dead to me
  This is where it dies
  Suffer my vengeance
• 7. Collusion (03:22)
   copy

  Held down against the pavement disavowed
  Subordination of the need to expound
  Coordinated covert invasion
  The system
  Appropriation of a subversive sound
  The revolution can't be contained by a fascist system enslaved
  To the belief that resistance will fade
  
  Contrive a need of hostility to be deceived by division
  Wars and greed
  Death and disease
  It's a world in collusion
  
  Hands bound
  Determination can be found
  In the minds of those who refuse to bow down
  Stop waiting for a symbolic savior
  You can turn belief to truth by living unbound
  
  Contrive a need of hostility to be deceived by division
  Wars and greed
  Death and disease
  It's a world in collusion
  
  What can't be seen is our captivity
  Covert and crafted to create our dependency
  
  Contrive a need of hostility to be deceived by division
  Wars and greed
  Death and disease
  It's a world in collusion
  
  It's a world in collusion
• 8. The Fall of Us (04:18)
   copy

  Cauterizing the wounds you caused in vain
  I realize how much we've lost
  
  Your words forsake and betray you
  It's your facade that I see through
  You let the bitterness take you
  It's the death of our trust
  
  My tears, my heart and blood
  Are not enough
  In the fall of us
  Your fears at war with trust
  And the loss of love
  It's the fall of us
  The fall of us
  
  Recognizing the life you claim to live
  Normalizing your arrogance
  I've got no more to give
  No more to give
  
  My tears, my heart and blood
  Are not enough
  In the fall of us
  Your fears at war with trust
  And the loss of love
  It's the fall of us
  It's never enough, the fall of us
  
  Hate, fear
  Hate, fear
  Hate, hate, fear, fear
  Hate, fear
  Hate, fear
  
  I'm lost inside your vacant eyes
  A cold mirror of the darkness you hide
  I tried to save you from the pull of the tide
  The fear has changed you into what you despise
  Hatred is your weakness
  Hatred consumes you
  
  My tears, my heart and blood
  Are not enough
  In the fall of us
  Your fears at war with trust
  And the loss of love
  It's the fall of us
  
  Your fears at war with trust
  It's the fall of us
• 9. Broken Glass (02:30)
   copy

  You speak in shards of broken glass
  
  You punish me to try to take away my dignity
  Strip away my confidence to prey upon the kindness that's in me
  
  So now I will withstand
  Drive a nail into my hand
  Crucified to ruthless circumstance
  Too blind to understand
  That you alone will suffer the consequence
  
  You speak in shards of broken glass
  My wounds may bleed, but the pain won't last
  
  Now I watch as you
  Collapse
  My suffering will mend
  Your bitterness won't end
  
  So now I withstand
  Drive a nail into my hand
  Bleeding out, but I still will not relent
  Too blind to understand
  In the end, you will repent
  
  You speak in shards of broken glass
  Broken glass
  My wounds may bleed, but the pain won't last
  The pain won't last
  
  Now I watch as you
  Collapse
• 10. Requiem (03:29)
   copy

  auterizing wounds that won't mend
  Is this the beginning of the end?
  
  Can we be saved before it's too late?
  Our lives in declivity
  Watching our world fall apart
  Into dismay
  
  Emerge from the pain again
  I swear this is not the end
  This is not our requiem
  
  Avowed to avenge and repent
  Rain down, I brought punishment
  No more will you suffer discontent
  
  For you
  I will not relent
  
  Your sacred heart I will defend
  And we will see new life again
  This is not our requiem
  
  Emerge from the pain again
  I swear this is not the end
  This is not our requiem
  
  We emerge from the pain again
  This is not our requiem
  I swear this is not the end
  This is not our requiem
