Now nothing is gonna be the same From this day forward Now nothing is gonna be the same From this day forward Adrift among its existence It starts to rise Emphatic endeavor to be Intensified Distant proximity Of a new energy Seeking integrity It's time to let it be Darkness is the sight This black wall Hides a power that will never Draw back Potential paragon Strange phenomenon Absolute form of life Full capacity Adrift among its existence It starts to rise Emphatic endeavor to be Intensified From this day forward nothing is gonna be the same From this day forward nothing is gonna be the same Transfer of the energy Renewal of vitality Revival of the will to be Transfer of the energy Renewal of vitality Revival of the will to be

An abstract reality Kingdom of dissension Made of absurd situations An abstract reality Freedom of illusions Innate from a veracious fiction Imprisoned by infinite horizon Deserted in a world without conception An abstract reality Mental hurly-burly Preposterous integrity An abstract reality Can you believe what you see? Experience impossibility Imprisoned by infinite horizon Deserted in a world without conception Getting harebrained You are bewildered by the things you see Getting insane It is an exordium to your lunacy Reality is unreal No way to know what is true You are confused and you feel That someone is playing with you Hegemony of uncertainty Domination of the nonsense Archness of the tare Loss of accuracy Your senses are fading Overwhelming falsifications You cannot bear Padlocked in a liberty Completely unescapable finalizing your entrance Into the exit hall It's too late to stop the process It is irreversible Solitary confinement will end it all

Droïdomized 06:42
He is the first one to be Where someone was before Where life is a lie and humanity is no more No more than an illusion No more than an aspect Suffering from a pain that doesn't really hurt But causes damages to his fulfilments Theft of feeling by the corner of an eye A lobotomy gets its part of impeachments Computerized animation of existence A life engulfed under a synthetical brain The pain of an electronic pestilence Burning microbes running into corporate veins Somebody stole all of his emotions There are no laughs, no tears, no sleep Fading and fading, he never asks questions The needle has gone too deep Don't ask him the goal of his life He will never know Don't ask him the goal of his life He's a robot Prey of mad science, lobotomized Transformed into a zombie, inhumanized Vision brings the memory Of a life under a human form Memory brings the vision Of a present that is not conformed See what you've done to that man See what you've done He does remember the sorrow, the joy But doesn't feel them anymore Because the anger of being a toy For sure would be filling his core He is the first one to be Where someone was before Living in the present by a body of the past Once it was his own But it is not anymore That body is alive but its life didn't last He's been droïdomized

Once a bad but tractable intent Now a mischieving illusion Once a malignant experiment Now turned to obsession Insensitiviness of your action Makes you want to quit But stopping now would make it unappealing It is all in the challenge of making everything fit If it all works out, Reality would mean nothing Unreality's exhalation Reaching your senses Truculent force, truth's instinction A life with no limits Dream of a lunatic idealist Starting to be imminent Regeneration begins Dream of a lunatic idealist Starting to be imminent Regeneration begins Illegitimate experience Nullification of existence Decomposition of realism Life is losing euphoism Incoherence rules Mentality is fooled Victim of your fantasy Desideratum

His mind is the mold Of fearful events A matter of time 'till it's reality The power to see What someday will be Visions of the future Through creativity What's in his mind? The birth of another tragedy Just give him time And it will be part of destiny And it will be part of destiny Brain by brain A contagion runs A virus of madness Hits every man on earth An acropolis Hides the antidote He'll find its access When the right time will come It isn't like it was meant to be Now that it's real There is no access he can see He starts to fear Cheated by his imagination Punished for his crime against humanity Innocence would be found only in his mind He's now forced to soar through that world in his mind To find the strong antidote that will save mankind Destiny must not turn to a tragedy Destiny must not turn to a tragedy!

Chronocraze 05:47
Yesterday has been understood But its past hasn't been figured You would be surprised if you could For sure, today would be clearer No one is leaving beyond time Existence is limited by life The past is gone today draws the line It is not dead, it is just stuck in ice Will you break that ice? Sudden turn of the process of time Sudden overthrow Chronological turbulence Mixture of the epochs Sinking into confusion slime Madness starts to grow Nightmares of the past are no more frozen The chronocraze strikes Chronocraze You are plunged in a dead-end odyssey Through the heart of a timeless state where the frontier between now and then Is just a misguiding fate Memories are free Recollections are materialized I hope you have Only good souvenirs Some pretend to know What has been and what will be The truth will only glow If you are there to touch and see Shadows of what used to be Entering your realities Shadows of what used to be Reaching all infinities Past deeds are mixed with Present actions The only future you have is made of expectations The only future you have is Is threatened by the chronocraze
