The Veil - AngelMaker

I, in loneliness will wither away if I let the over bearing weight of the world

consume me

The future is as bright, as the city lights

An empire of naught built upon a crown of rot

Your masks cannot hide the strength in which you left to die

Wasting precious time burnt alive

Next thing you know you’ve pissed away your precious life

The days of judgement draw near

They will not pardon you

When your thirsty and cold will you know what to do?

Insurrection ensues and all you cry for is help

You’ve failed to see the signs it’s time to pay for pain that’s dealt

All we do is consume, expel and rot away

We live our lives so blind, looming hell impending

What do you stand for?

Who does it benefit?

Why endorse all the horrors of the innocent?

Where are your calluses?

Where is your composure?

Choosing to filter love and overload with fear

Who are we to blame for all the ways leading us into an age of ruin?

Our forefathers blame theirs

Passed the veils, the meagre ways will fail

Fail us all

Let our will determine who shall thrive or die

I’m sickened by the cycle of the world surrounding me

Slipping through the holes of my own insanity

We, the purveyors of our own calamity

Take a step back, is this what you want to be?

How far do we go and at what cost?

Fleeting fame feeding egos so lost

We’re trapped inside a cage but the door is unlocked

It’s thrive or die but at what cost?

How long can we sustain these crimson ways?

How far can we go before collapsing?

Just listen to the world and all her agony

Your lack of contribution utterly disgusts me

Youʼll probably say Iʼm wrong

You soon shall surely see

An age of regress is written in prophecy

Who are we to blame for all the ways leading us into an age of ruin?

Our forefathers blame theirs

Passed the veils, the meagre ways will fail

Fail us all

Let our will determine who shall thrive or die
