BLOODSHOT DAWN LYRICS

1. Smoke And Mirrors


Rising
A fear of unknowing and misinformation
The Death of indignation
pure ignorance

Powers
Force fed facts to deter the mind
What's real? What is lies?
When is our time to die?

[Chorus:]
Serpent's tongue
Spitting poison
When you look upon the mirror
Can you face what you're blind to see?
No more lies
We won't survive
If you read between the lines
You'll see beyond the blindfold of our times

Rising
Hidden agenda, battles of nations
The death of care and reason
Total war

Powers
Force fed facts to deter the mind
What's real? What is lies?
Now is our time to die!

Living in fear
We are more than this
Civilization was built under nations
Of humans existing as one

[Chorus]

[Solo: Ellis]
[Solo: McMorran]

[Chorus]


2. Consequence Complex


Born...
A pure existence untainted by others
We go through time ingesting negatives and lies
But ask yourself, what is life?

You must not hold your problems
The time is up
If you don't face the facts
Your mind will erupt

[Pre-chorus:]
Mind over matter, trivial factors
Control the storm within the head

[Chorus:]
You must cast into shadow
All the hate and fear for a better tomorrow
We won't be defeated
The consequence complex controls
Shaped thoughts of all will falter
As your mind is filled and becomes altered
Break free from the shackles of your mind
And see the grand design

Living...
Animosity is rife
Journey of life, unfathomable pain
Take from the positive, not negatives and lies
With questions unanswered, this is life...

[Solo: Ellis]
[Solo: McMorran]

[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]


3. Unified


Behold!

Behold your empire of ritual disdain
With you the martyr king
Crying out for the advent of change
While clutching so tight to your invisible chains

You keep your mouth shut for fear of judgement
As soon as backs are turned you abandon your silence
You're a hypocrite and liar, but you know this too well

[Chorus:]
We are unified in chains
That hold us to the ground
Content to blend with the crowd
Mediocrity resounds

Behold, the signs of a fractured mind
Now push it 'til it breaks
So fucking used to denying yourself
You know it must end, but you do it so well

I hold your world in the palm of my hand
I'll squeeze the life right out of you...

[Chorus]

We are unified in chains
That hold us to the ground
Content to blend with the crowd
Identity unfound

[Solo: Ellis]

You say that we are unified
I say that we have lost control

I refuse to accept that this is my only solution
A broken machine that no one even tries to fix anymore
I am sick of pretending that this is the only way for me
This is not who I am meant to be...
It's meant to be

[Solo: Ellis]
[Solo: McMorran]

[Chorus]

A time will come when this will be undone
As all you thought you knew turns out was never true
And all that we are returns to the start
But I'll welcome in the end to begin and grow again


4. Inadequacy


I have a story to tell, living in my own hell
Complications, interrogations of my own thoughts
Inadequacy to expectation, forever striving for what?
How can you know what you want if you don't know yourself?

In the vortex of thought
My mind collides with my empathy
Complexity of inadequacy
Shaping the path that will be

[Verse:]
Pushing the limits of human capacity
Blind by self expectations, a driving tenacity

[Pro-chorus:]
Standing still in the eye of the storm
While everything's torn apart
A twisted sense of fascination
How did you let it get this far?

[Chorus:]
I'm at the edge of ruin
Caving under the pressures that I put on myself
In danger of burning out

Complexities of my mind
Failing to see the grand design
Concerns for others thoughts
Hindering me, my future diseased

[Verse]
[Pro-chorus]
[Chorus]

[Solo: McMorran]
[Solo: Ellis]


5. Black Hole Infinity


Infinite life, recycled matter erupts
Light reforms, planets are torn as power is formed
From black hole devastation, time and space, recreation
Infinite...

[Chorus:]
Beyond all comprehension
The galaxy becomes part of a new dimension
Beyond the realm of no light
Foul species shall thrive

Gravity's force, aeon of endless creation
Solar system's source, the Sun is god

Our earth's destiny out of our control
Destruction of all worlds, collision of fire and planets
Behold the death of everything, the birth of a new beginning
Infinity...

[Chorus]

[Verse:]
As we return to the void from which we came
Nothing will remain

[Solo: McMorran]
[Solo: Ellis]

[Chorus]
[Verse]


6. Human Void


[Chorus:]
Caught between your lack of empathy and callous greed
The Human Void dominates me
Caught in the boundaries of my mind
All emotion declines
Set yourself free from the plague of humanity
Open the doors of your mind and leave
Among the Human Void
Existing without reason, living without ploy

Vicariously live your life without compassion
A grotesque trait of the human condition
I can't deny we all fall for it
Yet we preach contradiction, hypocrites

[Verse:]
Soul destroyed
Human Void
We all fall into the void, catastrophe
We all live an existence with care from sins absolved?

[Chorus]

Life without compassion will lead to our extinction
I won't deny and embrace it
In the blink of an eye, we are just hypocrites

[Verse:]

Human
Human Void
Shallow and Callous
We exploit
Burn it all

[Solo: McMorran]
[Solo: Ellis]

Burn it all, this failing society
Through self absorption we damned ourselves into nether
We are beyond salvation


7. The Image Faded


You close your eyes and try to recall
But can only glimpse the splintered pieces of the whole
Try to catch them and they drift out of sight
The Image Faded
Unclear after all this time

Begin scrabbling for inspired fiction
Subconscious fabricates a distorted scene of the story you left behind

Living your life in a dream
Of the day that never comes
A fantasy so clear
Only to wake and find…

… Nothing can live up to this
The images in your head
Start to believe it and you’re losing your grip
Addicted to a made up world

Now indifferent to your waking life
You pray for endless night
Keep your head in the clouds and your life will pass you by

Living your life in a dream
Of the day that never comes
A fantasy so clear
Only to wake and find it never was

With every sleep you return
To the day that never comes
But always wake to find it never was

[Solo]

Living your life in a dream
Of the day that never comes
A fantasy so clear
Only to wake and find it never was

With every sleep you return
To the day that never comes

But always wake to find it never was


8. Demons


So many things I can't remember
Too many things I can't forget
The thoughts that keep me awake and plague me with regret
A constant reminder of mistakes I cannot escape

A wretched ache that never leaves
The scars unseen
Caught in the shadow of a memory
My mind's my enemy

My mind's my enemy

These demons
They're haunting me - they're all I see
These demons
Threaten with destiny - it's changing me

Can't say you didn't see it coming
And now you're losing this war
You're the only one in it now... The others have moved on
So stop saving face and start saving your soul

Can't keep living this way
Won't dull this pain
Stop trying to fight it alone
Now let these demons go!

Let these demons go!

Go!

These demons
They're haunting me - they're all I see
These demons
Threaten with destiny - it's changing me

[Solo: Benjamin Ellis]

These demons
They're haunting me - they're all I see

No more will demons be haunting me
I set them free
