lyrics

Under the strain the cracks start to show
Still can't tell, when it falls, which way it will go
How can an empire, for aeons, stand
with it's foundations built upon the sand?

A thousand questions, but never an answer
After a lifetime spent, I can't tell what's been gained
Where am I going? What am I fighting for?...
…Still this undying dedication to a dead cause

The lasting shreds of belief barely hold me together
As I stand on the edge staring out at the dark of forever
No way to tell which way is wrong or right
I'm blind in the darkness, and I'm blind in the light

A victim of my own uncertainty
Bound by parameters of my morality
Am I knowingly leading myself where no one can follow?
Deeper into this hole, there's no way out

A thousand questions, but never an answer
After a lifetime spent, I can't tell what's been gained
Where am I going? What am I fighting for?...
…Still this undying dedication to a dead cause

[Solos: Ellis]

[Twin Lead: Ellis & McMorran]

[Solo: Ellis]

Where am I going? What am I fighting for?...
…Still this undying dedication to a dead cause

Through Gritted Teeth

Something a bit different - The awesome debut from this Brighton based hard rock/grunge band. It has some of the most epic melodies and grooviest riffs you'll find throughout the UK underground. Bloodshot Dawn

I dig this album so much, definitely a keeper. Subtly and masterfully mixing death metal subgenres, backed with an over the top production. They're true professionals. Can't wait for their next release! doive

An excellent blend of tech and melodic death metal. This album is noticeably different from Demons (a stunning release), but still retains their style. Taylor Henderson
