Hey, what are you doing out here? I could ask you the same thing Come on, everyone's back at the base Everyone? Yeah, we're all getting briefed for the mission. What is this your first day? Yeah... you could say that Alright rookie, I'll cover for you this one time But if the boss catches you slacking, he won't be as kind as I am Let's go Well can you keep up? Earn our trust with what you sell Because our legion Is impressed with your potential You'll get a quick fix From what you've come to know A bag of tricks For sneaking by the lies they sell themselves We could be someone Just close your eyes and run into the fog with us In reaching towards the sun We'll shape what we become Just let it go Be one of us I know There's a method to your kindness Still I'll borrow To release my inhibitions You'll get a dose of what will keep me From losing focus Till my next withdrawal Keep consuming till you're all Down where you belong We could be someone Just close your eyes and run into the fog with us In reaching towards the sun We'll shape what we become Just let it go Be one of us Woah, woah Woah, woah Woah, woah Woah, woah You're one of us You're one of us You can trust us with your life But if you cross us it's your Goodbye We could be someone Just close your eyes and run into the fog with us In reaching towards the sun We'll shape what we become Just let it go Be one of us Woah woah Let it go Be one of us Woah woah Let it go Be one of us

I watch you cut my world down I swear you have me figured out I hope You know I didn't wanna slow down Torn by the way you drag me out You won't Let go You draw me closer to you somehow Not sure if you can tell I used to cover so well Something is calling me from deep down A pulse I've never felt Oceans beginning to swell It took a while to see you take in All that I had to say Your mind would wander away You looked inside me, I was broken Somehow you found a way Warm unexpected delay Just don't let go now I watch you cut my world down I swear you have me figured out I hope You know I didn't wanna slow down Torn by the way you drag me out You won't Let go You draw me closer to you Somehow I watch you cut my world down I swear you have me figured out I hope You know I didn't wanna slow down Torn by the way you drag me out You won't Let go I watch you cut my world down I swear you have me figured out You won't Let go I didn't wanna slow down Torn by the way you drag me out You won't Let go

Hey Wait I've got some things I need to say Before I watch you fade away Blame Hate Every action that you take Has made it clear that things have changed Wait Wait Wait We belong together Redeem ourselves For this bleeding carousel The secrets they won't tell It's time we break the silence We're in control Together we can move the world Our newfound strength in tow It's time to face the violence Your empty soul Devised to disembody An endless hole Forever deep and rotting All this time You've drawn me closer To your side I'm crossing over To defy Wait Wait Wait Wait Listen To the sound of my voice We have Been wandering in circles Anticipating your choice You've been at the surface Treading water But remember Just remember We belong together Your empty soul Devised to disembody An endless hole Forever deep and rotting All this time You've drawn me closer To your side I'm crossing over To defy You've made an art Of taking moments to discard Those who gave you their heart I want to know Did you order the killing blow My phantom calls from below I sink into the Warming waters They make me new They call on me to end you Grateful now Forever into a glory My old self would Never allow You won't let go Woah Woah Although his heart Remains alone Awakened now His cover's blown He never felt More at home Woah Woah Woah Woah Woah Woah Woah Woah

X - Assassin 05:14
I make my way back to the edge of my old home I'm undetected For they've been left in the dark My past behavior marked me someone to dispose I've reconnected With what was wrecked in my own heart I'm hysterical again Should know better than to Send someone like me Away I slip into your old impenetrable lair I see you reaching A weak beseeching I look into the eyes that said my fate was fair Thought you were teaching But there was nothing there I'm hysterical again Should know better than to Send someone like me Away I'm hysterical again Should know better than to Send someone like me Away To be frank I've replayed this moment each day I keep finding ways to reawaken My hate But wait Among the stars I go up against Got to keep taking Got to keep making scars Play the violin Disposing my every friend I'm hysterical again Should know better than to Send someone like me Away It's alright Don't be scared It's alright Don't be scared I will right What's in my head I'm just dancing on your grave Should know better than to Send someone like me Away I'm just dancing on your grave Should know better than to Send someone like me Away I'm just dancing on your grave Should know better than to Send someone like me

about

Shards of the Void is a concept album, told across three acts. A strained relationship between mother and son leads to an emotionally charged adventure, set in a fractured world where shards of reality create distortions and grant those who wield them unique abilities. Odin, the leaders of New Earth, carefully study and use the powers of the reality shards to maintain order in their isolated city. But when Ajax, son of Mary - the leader of Odin, decides to steal one for his own benefit, a chain of events is triggered that drags him down a path towards self-realization.
