The Ashes Of You
03:56
|
|||
|
We broke the chains
And ended the cycle
We’re on the run
Away from the ice and snow
And expectations
Of who we’re supposed to be
Go up in flames
Only ashes of you remain
Lovely Ladies
Hiding inside their own bodies
Caged singers who grind their teeth
Dreaming of running away
The thoughts don’t change
They enter the cycle
Of love and hate
For the ones who have captured our minds
So will I ever
Know who I’m supposed to be
Before it all goes up in flames
Lovely Ladies
Hiding inside their own bodies
Caged singers who grind their teeth
Dreaming of running away

Times Demise
01:51
|
|||
|
We escaped so far away
That the men began to pray
And we tried to then deny
At the cost of what’s inside
We deny the times we wrought
And the pain that our love brought to us
How could I see the plan?
Of course I should have made a stand
And let my soul be damned
She’s gone she’s not with me
She’s gone so far, so far away
She might have stayed
If not for all the times I prayed
Now that I’m in the deepest dark place
We start to fight an endless war
Where time’s demise
Denies a world where
White’s the sun, and she’s the moon
And all that we have is now

Now I See You
04:43
|
|||
|
Just too wide to jump across
I watch you out of my reach
Can you hear me crying out to you?
My memories have been erased
I only know what is right now
And yet my love for you feels ancient
As if I’ve already made a vow
Now I see you
I won’t leave you til we see this through
It only matters if I’m here with you
Just in time for something new
The stations of our enslavement
Divide the fabric of the soul
Tattered tapestries hang on opposite walls
A tortured reminder
Of being half whole
We stand united in cause
Set apart by war-time laws
Two arms that should not be joined
Because apart is how they’re strong
We stand beside unspoken love
It’s a sun too bright to stare
We’ll just wait until the earth stands still
And I’ll finally call you mine

Deception and Cunning
05:26
|
|||
|
The seas will carry me out with the tide
Dragged through waves unable to hide
What appears an unbreakable bond
Slips away and the ripple is gone
A shell of myself
My prominence behind me
Always and forever yours
Remember your place
Far underneath my gaze
Bring me the spoils I deserve
A ride alone ahead in the dark
Approaches slow and steady the mark
Misty rain the light falls apart
No closer than I was at the start
In the moment my thoughts contrived
False Bravado to enshroud my lies
At the moment you sought control
A grand bargain for rights to my soul
In the aftermath of my pain
We move forward with backward gain
The tide has ripped me away from the sand
Flays my heart unable to stand
Home is where the meek go to mend
What’s been written shall be whole again

Enemies Are Friends
08:17
|
|||
|
In like a queen she enters
Capturing alive the senses
Just one glance and now I’m back in time
A love once mine
Fighting a lonely feeling
She stares back at those she’s fearing
Just one look and now I’m back in time
Losing fights
Don’t wanna let her go
Even though that I know
She’s a piece of a giant puzzle
Does she understand it now?
Only one way out:
Build a lie
Fabricate a story
Enemies are friends.

Torn Asunder To Sand
05:53
|
|||
|
As I turn around
Watching as he moves
Closer to my side
A note from a friend
This small bird is telling me
To hold on
Maps of you start anew
All the lies
Become see-thru all in view
Void of my trust
Our bond has turned to dust
Once again
Signed and sealed by your fate
Intent on turning away
Through the storm that we steer
Your cause opaque turns to clear
And the bond that we had
Is torn asunder to sand
A stone whose visage was cast
A traitor until the last
(you can’t betray, lest your love fall away)
Why did your life become spared
Our path that crossed all ensnared
Alone our speech can evolve
One major bump to resolve
Don’t think that this was the plan
I sacrifice where I can
The lions roar at the gate
Signed and sealed by your fate
You betrayed me
From the first light
Please forgive me
I’ll do what’s right
Love means to hide
Just to stay at my side
You must go now

A Father's Sin
02:59
|
|||
|
A boy raised by men
No counterweight assumed
Nightmares go unsoothed
So he builds them all a home
And now they are friends
Midnight sky and spiderwebs
Soul long ago extinguished
His single joy is counting dead
A boy raised by men
A boy raised by men
A boy raised by men
But a father knows only what he knows
There’s no price for lasting legacy
So a young boy must take his father’s name
To ensure the family tree remains

March and Descend
04:34
|
|||
|
The first time I saw you
I thought to myself
She’s been abandoned
Alone by herself
Oh why
Did you help me out
When you need it yourself
I don’t know why
Our paths crossed again
But the old wise tales
Float through my head and say
Better to gamble on
The man you know
Than the stranger you don’t
Going dark
The look
Of pure surrender
Drink to fall
To rest
Eternal slumber
Poison pain
To shame
The folks unwilling
Follow through
With deeds
Left unfulfilling
Next of kin
A sin
To then abandon
Lines to cross
A gate
Which now divides us

The Last Night On Earth
05:44
|
|||
|
To find you’ve been unloved
To find your world untrue
To fight off accusations
Before insanity ensues
If you knew that you would die
Before the next horizon dawn
Would you welcome all the fear
Would the panic make you strong
A family of conquerors
Only one sues for peace
Defamation characters
A bloodline must decrease
No one seems to wonder
No one seems to ponder
They’ve all been torn asunder
While their lives they all squander
Don’t be afraid little one
The circumstantial evidence
That implicates your soul
Shifting puzzle pieces
That bend to fill the holes
Death must come for everyone
Don’t waste your time counting your breaths
Seek out the things of which you’re enthralled
Voice your opinion: your argument’s flat
Only one man can fight for you now
This time will tell the truth
Don’t be afraid little one
(Don't be afraid)
Death comes for us all
(It comes for us all)

Time Runs Out
05:40

Another day in paradise
Now we sip from the vine of life
Today is not the day I die
Yet the mountain of certainty unwinds
Time runs out

Stay Here
02:45
|
|||
|
I don’t know just how to say
I don’t know if I can explain
How I know the thoughts in your head
By the way your eyes hypnotize
Down I go to live in the ocean
You’re the air I need to keep breathing
I don’t know just how to show
I don’t know, I thought you should know
Stay here
We’ll live the dreams of the angels
Stay here
We’ll fall asleep in the moon glow
I don’t know just how to show…
I just thought you should know

The Fifth Row

I consider this album to be one of the best releases of the decade. In addition to the incredible music they nailed the issues and potential dangers of AI back in 2018, years ahead of most people involved in computer science. Listen to this music but more importantly - listen to what they are saying about the possible future of mankind once AI reaches sentience.They call this AGI+ sentient AI "JCN" or Jason. AGI is here in 2024 and JCN is near.
