lyrics

All alone you rule, crown yourself a fool
Sever yourself from harm and confrontation
In God you trust, in nothing but yourself
Another lord arrives
The king of an empty hall

Six billion souls adrift barricade themselves
Congregate, separate
Alone in hollowness, they walk to different tunes
Isolate, segregate

All alone you rule, crown yourself a fool
Sever yourself from harm and confrontation
In God you trust, in nothing but yourself
Another lord ascends
The king of an empty hall

Deaf, they tell naught but their own empty story
Restlessness, shallowness
Write it on every wall, for others to ignore
Existence, arrogance

Evolve and prosper, you grow apart
Sever all bounds and crush your way into the crowd
Destroy everything that makes you human
Dead figures, dead vessels

All alone you rule, crown yourself a fool
Sever yourself from harm and confrontation
In God you trust, in nothing but yourself
Another lord will come
The king with a broken crown

and powerful vocals are the trademark behind these
gems of melodic death metal, evoking at times Dark Tranquility, In Flames or Insomnium. ... more
