"Miserabile Visu (Ex Malo Bonum)" lyrics
"Miserabile Visu (Ex Malo Bonum)"
A red priest broke into our classroom
Caught us children by attention
"Listen closely to the words I speak
Lord knows if we'll ever, ever again meet"
Spoke such words never spoken before
On the way he declared there were
Miracles like you've never seen
From a man who was raised up in the sea
A man is coming in thirteen-one
To charm the daughters and the sons
Scared for our lives, I turned to your hand
Hold this tight while we run, if we still can
What disasters may come
Whatever it may be
At the end of the age
It will land you and me
What tragedy may bring
Whatever may fall
The end of the world
You'll still belong
Before the red priest took his last breath
He told me, "Child, now don't forget
The sun will turn dark very soon
Your days are numbered when there's blood on the moon
"The earth will shake and the sky will fall
The eyes will open of those involved
Don't take this son, but you'll be killed
By the man from seven hills"
A man is coming in thirteen-one
To charm the daughters and the sons
Scared for our lives, I turned to your hand
Hold this tight while we run, if we still can
What disasters may come
Whatever it may be
At the end of the age
It will land you and me
What tragedy may bring
Whatever may fall
At the end of the world
You'll still belong
Look children to the eastern sky
When you hear the voice say your last goodbyes
Look there to the eastern skies
When the ghosts take hold of the men who died
Look children to the eastern sky
When your fathers weep and your mothers cry
Look children to the eastern sky
What disasters may come
Whatever it may be
At the end of the age
It will land you and me
What tragedy may bring
Whatever may fall
At the end of the world
You'll still belong
Look children to the eastern sky
When you hear the voice say your last goodbyes
Look there to the eastern skies
When the ghosts take hold of the men who died
Look children to the eastern sky
When your fathers weep and your mothers cry
Look children to the eastern sky
Look children to the eastern sky

In Motive - "What I Have To Give" In your own mind, walk a thin line
Counting new cars as they drive by
I was locked out of my own house
In a blackout in the dark clouds, purgatory
Am I ever gonna let it go?
Am I going to forget it?...
Justin Courtney Pierre - "Footsteps" You don't seem the type to hold me underwater
I fell asleep and dreamt I'd turned myself around
Scratching deeper there's an urge to sever wires
Scratching deeper there's an urge to end it all

Circa Survive - "Drift" Through the line there's a song
That will never be shared, dependent
Holding on to a fault that I couldn't forget
Prevent
I don't ever wanna do it again
Doesn't make it ours to condemn

Islander - "Mayday" Mayday, mayday...
Mayday, mayday
We're headed for destruction
Kamikaze, bring the bloodshed
Reaper reaping what we sow
Big brother in the sky as they watch us in our homes
Set us up for defeat

Press To MECO - "Smouldering Sticks" Man, I feel like a peasant in rags on a battlefield
Out and about for a daily morning stroll
I can't stop my mind coming back to the places
That's guaranteed to leave me full of holes
