Axis

Axial Shift 07:24
This world is dying before my very eyes And what I can see says it’s pretty hopeless to try and survive But as axes shift and seasons change anew Perhaps it’s not too late to try, to take back the past, to pay our dues Blackened ground and smoke tainted sky I lost my dreams, I watched this land… die Those of us who are left to fight, let’s fly We’ll take back our world, one step at a time

Rise!

Opening Eyes 06:14
Open your eyes, look up to the skies, give purpose to your life Breathe in the air, you feel it there, rhythms in the sand The desert cries, metal birds fly, your world is shaking These shattering walls will finally fall… atoms are breaking We’re out of time, there’s no more to waste We must act now; we’ve come about face Skies sublime, how did we come to this place There’s no time, there’s no more time to waste One single track, no time to look back, forward we fly Throw off your chains, wash out the stains and, we’ll start our lives again First this must fall, tear down these walls, free this world of hate We fight back now, no matter the how, we’ve something left to save I don’t want to hear this, I don’t want to feel this, I don’t want to watch this land die I will never forget this, I will never regret this, broken machines under a crimson sky

Look me in the eyes and tell me this was worth it Worth the pain and loss of life Tell me this time we did things the right way Tell me this time we didn't fail I am lying on my deathbed, waiting for some sense of peace Waiting for a sign I am waiting for my life to end, I can see the axis has aligned Please can you tell me now in the hours before the morning Tell me if we could have saved everyone in need Tell me if our fighting has been for nothing Or if it's for a just cause that we bleed (I don't want to feel this, I don't want to hear this, I don't want to watch this land die) There's no sense in regret On the edge of life and death We have overcome the odds and lived this long We have changed the world, for better or for worse And I hope someday we'll be remembered in song I take my last breath I take my last breath I take my last breath with peace
