The Birth of Tragedy (2018)

1. VIGIL

ARISE 

There’s nothing here that’s left for me 
I’m cold but I’m not blind 
It’s said that death will set you free 
Why won’t they honor mine? 

Oathbreaker  
Savior 
No future in sight (Traitor) 

Oathbreaker (Traitor) 
Savior 
A bastard, undone (Traitor) 

Can’t bear to see you fall  
So far beyond the wall 

And now my watch has ended 
Take care, the night’s descending 

Return before the evening comes 
On roads we’ve left behind 
I’ll never make it on my own 
I need you by my side 

Oathbreaker (Traitor) 
Savior 
No future in sight (Traitor) 

Oathbreaker (Traitor) 
Savior 
A bastard, undone (Traitor) 

Can’t bear to see you fall 
So far beyond the wall 

And now my watch has ended 
Take care, the night’s descending 

Dishonor, disgrace 
A curse upon your name 

AZOR AHAI 

ARISE (Traitor)

2. AT THE HORIZON

Ripped away 
Beyond my grasp 
Beside myself 
The light is failing me 

No time 
Left to say 
My hopes for you 

Go on without me 

At the edge of the world 
Don’t leave my tale untold 
All warmth is gone 
The winds are strong 
The sun moves on 
Shadows grow long 

Don’t leave me here 

Stand alone 
To gaze upon 
The skies beneath 
Exhale all your fear 

Barely on 
The precipice 
A sight that brought me to my knees 

Go on without me 

At the edge of the world 
Don’t leave my tale untold 
All warmth is gone 
The winds are strong 
The sun moves on 
Shadows grow long 

Would you take me at my word 
And forsake me to the cold 

At the edge of the world 
Don’t leave my tale untold 
Your life moves on 
All hope is gone 

Shadows grow long

3. ONCE UPON A TIME

Weigh the worth of ancient deeds 
To rise alone 
To speak 
So slow (So slow) 
Underwhelming 

Dethrone the myth that keeps us down 
Spare the rod, declare my foe (My foe) 
No distractions 

Waking, breathing 
Walking, Sleeping 

Don’t look at me like 
I’m the one who sold your soul 
Bear the pain you’ve wrought 
Til reach betrays control 

Tradition beckons us to search 
These tales 
Outside of what 
We know (we know) 
Of sacred endings 

Should we doubt, hate, or believe? 
Is it virtuous to go (to go) 
Without understanding? 

Fable, legend 
What’s the moral? 
Tell me a story 

Don’t look at me like 
I’m the one who sold your soul 
Bear the pain you’ve wrought 
Til reach betrays control 

Speak the name that sets us free 
Once upon a time indeed 

Don’t look at me like 
I’m the one who sold your soul 
Bear the pain you’ve wrought 
Til reach betrays control

4. PROSTHETIC GOD

Remedy 
Victory 
Everything you say 
Fresh new batch of blatant lies 
Every fucking day 

With every waking moment 
You make me fucking laugh 
Go find yourself a corner 
You’re a failure and a half 

Depravity 
Narcissist 
Fucking egoist 
A worthless cardboard hypocrite 
That fills the air with shit 

Shut your fucking mouth 
You pathetic fucking prick 
Go tell your fragile ego 
To meet my fucking fist 

I won’t worship (FUCK YOU, YOU FUCK) 
Your Prosthetic God 
I won’t worship (FUCK YOU, YOU FUCK) 
Your Prosthetic God 

Insanity 
Your vanity 
A dipshit on display 
Greasy fucking tiny fingers 
Stain our fucking flag 

You’re not a fucking tyrant 
No fucking king at all 
Why don’t you let me show you 
Where you can shove your fucking wall 

Iniquity 
Incompetence 
Flagrant fucking lies 
Every time you fucking speak 
More brain cells fucking die 

Shut your fucking mouth 
You pathetic fucking prick 
Go tell your fragile ego 
To meet my fucking fist 

I won’t worship (FUCK YOU, YOU FUCK) 
Your Prosthetic God 
I won’t worship (FUCK YOU, YOU FUCK) 
Your Prosthetic God 

Fuck you  

Crawl back into your fucking hole 
Fuck you you soulless asshole 
Crawl back into your fucking hole 
Fuck you you soulless asshole

5. QUIET
