BENEDICTUM LYRICS

1. Dream Of The Banshee


[Instrumental]

[Music: John Herrera]


2. Fractured


[Music: Wells, lyrics: Freeman]

Loos of control
Is vexing my soul
I must adapt to survive
Deafening refrain,
I fall out of frame
Each breath takes me
Farther from life

Torn and tattered
Doesn't matter
Torrid rapture
Cry!

I'm fractured
Won't be captured

Far from the depth
My fortune inept
Panic and manic combined
Spinning my head
The quick and the dead
There's no alibi

Torn and tattered
Doesn't matter
Tears from laughter,
Why?

I'm fractured
Won't be captured
Fractured

Fractured
Won't be
Fractured
Won't be captured
Fractured!
Fractured!


3. Obey


[Music: Wells, lyrics: Freeman]

Kneel down before me
For I can make it so
Prostrate before me
Before I let you go

Your imagination
For degradation has pushed you far
Beyond the pale
Struggle for your dignity,
This is what you asked of me
You don't breathe unless I say!

And as the light relents to day
It shall be me left standing
You will obey
You will obey
Every word
Obey!!!

You've changed the story
But think that I don't know
Unclaim your glory
As punishment unfolds

Ride upon my Berkley Horse
The governess that you endorse
You shall call me Domina!
'Twas your decision
For such derision
To the corner now, bad boy!

For as the light begins to wane,
Fantasy's flight becomes your bane

You will obey
You will obey
My spoken word
You will hear the words that I convey
You will obey
You will obey
Listen to my voice now and obey

Step into the after,
Your flesh released to me
This is nit a romance,
As you struggle to break free

You will obey
You will obey my spoken word
You will hear the words that I convey
You will obey
You will obey
Yes, you will obey
Hey, are you listening?


4. Fighting For My Life


[Music: Wells, lyrics: Freeman]

I've been told there's and ebb and a flow to life
Even so I just can't seem to get it right
Just the facts though, ipso facto
But I just let it roll right off my back

I try to put it all behind me now
But still somehow
I'm fighting for my life
Fighting for my life
We are here, here to fight
We are here, here to fight

Been kicked out more than once
From the school of life
Learned a lesson or two on how to survive
I'm a creature of human nature
And I just stand my ground until the last

They say the future is a spotless place
But I have to say I'm fighting for my life
We are here, here to fight
Fighting for my life
In the light

You want me? A piece of me?
You want me? That will never be!
Confront me? A piece of me?
You want me?

Free your mind so I can climb
Free your soul so there's a place to go

Fighting for my life
We are here, here to fight
Fighting for my life
Fighting for my life
Fighting for my life
We are here to fight


5. Scream


[Music & lyrics: Jared Blackstone]

I like it better when we're all alone
No one around to tell you where to go
You like me better on your little pills
You said your life has left you empty thrills
Scream shout!
Break out!

You tell me what yo want I'll call the man
And I'll watch you bleeding as I hold your hand
But don't give up that's what they want to see
'Cause in the end it's only you and me

Scream shout!
Break out!

With all the pain that we've been through
And all the times we made it new
To watch it all go down like this
We're locked in one last fatal kiss

Do with me what you please
Cut out this disease
Bored and uninspired
Leaves me undesired

Scream shout break out!
Scream shout break out!

With all the pain that we've been through
And all the times we made it new
To watch it all go down like this
We're locked in one last fatal kiss


6. Evil That We Do


[Music: Wells, lyrics: Freeman]

Satisfaction guaranteed
Cutting like a knife
Pierce the wound
You're gonna bleed
False self-sacrifice

Broken vows to do no harm
Retract the spell and break the charm
There's silence in the sound no deed
Undone when karma comes

Oh, the evil that we do
Oh, the evil that we do

What say you!

Dark intentions always see
The dawning of the light
Egos thrash like sharks
That feed confronted by their lies

This world still bares the scars
Of inhumanity at large
Tenderness it lies entombed
When we do nothing evil rules

Oh, the evil that we do
Oh, the evil that we do
Evil
Evil that we do
Evil
Evil

Oh, the evil that we do
Oh, the evil that we do

What say you!


7. Crossing Over


[Music: Wells, lyrics: Freeman]

Stay with me!
Will you not pray with me?

Skies fallen, what fate for me waits for me?
Long shadows, whispers and words
Revealing a spektrum of haze
Did I pass with a whimper
A gasp or a blaze?

Dark hollows a trip from the gallows
Deep seated bereft and depleted
Bored holes in the depth of my soul
As I cry out to be heard no more!

Crossing over for the river is wide
Cerberus in my sites
I am crossing over to the greater unknown
For my life now has flown far from me

Cold comfort I grasp
For my senses
And not in the vastness I see
Concealing the terror within
Was my life full of light or a bastion of sin?
Can't follow pushed from the Bardo
Now knowing there is no tomorrow
Drawn breathe as I heave from the depth
Is there no more of life for me left?

Crossing over for the river is wide
Cerberus in my sites
I am crossing over
Will I cling to the sheets?
Phlegathon burning brightly for me

This is my own Gethsemane
This is my own mortality!

Die sweetly release
Now completely
Don't know what's beyond or beneath me
Life checked as if incomplete
And I know not what fate lies for me

Crossing over for the river is wide
Cerberus in my sites
I am crossing over
For the chasm is deep
As my life slips away from me
Crossing over to the greater unknown
Where the truth shall be shown
I am crossing over,
For the river is wide
Cerberus by my side


8. Cry


[feat. Tony Martin]

[Music: Wells, lyrics: Voigt / Freeman / Wells]

What's become of all of us?
Feel the pain and deceit
Deep in the darkness we fall away
Take a look around you
Chaos rules the day
There is no justice for all

Cry for this land
Feel her pain as we fall from grace
All is lost broke apart
As we cry for the human race

What's become of both of us?
Feel the pain and deceit
Deep in the darkness we fell away
Take a look inside you
Chaos rules your mind
No chance at justice at all

Cry for this land
Feel her pain as we fall from grace
All is lost broke apart
Don't cry for the time we waste

Cry for this man
Feel the pain as we fall from grace
All is lost broke apart
As we cry for the love we waste

Is there no one that hears us?
No one to wipe the tears that fall
Too late to try and change us
There's no one else to blame shame

Cry for this man
Feel the pain as we fall from grace
All is lost broke apart
Don't cry for the time we waste

Cry for this land
Feel her pain as we fall from grace
All is lost
Is it lost?


9. Thornz


[Music: Wells, lyrics: Freeman]

Careful as you gaze upon me
I will turn you to stone
Glacier ice runs in my veins
I'm a roseless thorn

Heartless doesn't even cover
He was dark from the day he was born
You might say you're roseless thorn
But I'm standing here and I'm a woman scorned

Like a slithering snake hidden deep in the weeds
He tore out my heart and he left me there to bleed

Like nails on a chalkboard
His words became to me
I was so turned around
Didn't know my own name
And I could barely breathe

Like oil and water we've become
The hurt has turned to hate and the damage done
For you have taken the better part of me
Now a roseless thorn and a woman scorned!

We will turn you to stone

Now I know we have reached this point of no return
Can't you see in my eyes all the hate and how it burns

Now if I were you I would sleep with one eye open
For not only my heart but my trust has now been broken

Like oil and water we've become
And now the damage has been done
For you have taken the better part of me
Now a roseless thorn and a woman scorned!

Like oil and water we've become
The hurt has turned to hate, the damage done
For you have taken the better part of me
Now a roseless thorn and a woman scorned!

We will turn you to stone


10. Die To Love You


[Music: Goldy, lyrics: Goldy / Freeman]

On the road to nowhere
Now I've been here before
I am just so tired of crying
Please no teart no more

Then the thought of you returns
To my mind, my heart, my soul
And I would gladly leave,
To you I'd cleave
Just to be with you once more

Can't take the pain I can't remain

I would die
Die just to love you
I would die
Just to love you

Never has a heart been broken
So far beyond repair
And I reach out to you
What more can I do?
Please, wait, my love, I'll be there

Our hearts entwined we'll recombine
And we shall fly straight across time

I would die
Die just to love you
I would die
Just to love you


11. Apex Nation


[Music: Wells, lyrics: Freeman]

Drive it harder, push it farther
Straight to the limits we will ride
Can you see the road that frees me?
A coalition by my side

We're the Apex Nation
Breaking the barriers down
Join the Apex Nation
As we try to drive the ideal line

Wheels and metal roll together
It's like a freeing of the soul
Floor the pedal, breaking through hell
And now we know we're not alone

We're the Apex Nation
Loving the feel of the wheel
Join the Apex Nation
As we try to drive the ideal drive ride, drive ride

Formula 1 the Grand Prix bring it on
On to the 24 hours of Le Mans
Nascar the fast cars become one with us
Stand on your feet 'cause we just can't get enough

We're the Apex Nation
Breaking the barriers down
Join the Apex Nation
As we try to drive the ideal line

Ideal line
A coalition by my side
Ideal line


12. Retrograde


[Music: Wells, lyrics: Freeman]

Light slowly gives way
To the wind now it sways
The remains of the day
Time it marches alone
To a beat of its own
This can't go on
And on, and on!

And it feels like
A life rewinding
All my dreams
To dust are grinding
Gone is all my levity
So long I've prayed and cried
Yet it all seems tossed aside
Bound and locked
I hold no key

And in the aftermath
I feel my own demise
And in the aftermath
The smoke it starts to rise

Time moving backwards
Retrograde
Reversing in orbit
Tied to the stake
Retrograde

There's a stop in the clock
That's counting
And the tension's slowly mounting

Harnessing my energy
The pressure won't subside
I slowly die inside
My struggle now is to break free

In the aftermath there is no ray of light
And in the aftermath nothing moves forward

Time moving backwards
Retrograde
Reversing in orbit
Not much more can I take
Retrograde

Time it marches alone
To a beat of its own
But I forge on!

I see it very clear
In the aftermath
I know my time is near

Time moving backwards
Retrograde
Reversing in orbit
Tied to the stake
Retrograde
