"Dead Reckoning" lyrics

Within the fortress, deceased memories
The corpses rot, no need for an elegy
I've seen this place a thousand times maybe more
Colour is now fading from the past, forgot who I was before

Lost faith in a life already wayward
Blind lead the blind in search of something real
Must make a friend of the god, the god of death
The only certain for us all, since our first breath

This moment fleeting, so much yet still to come
A silent greeting waits for us when we're done
Fear not what lurks in shadows beyond
Hell is empty and all the devils are here

Lost faith in a world forever cursed
Won't waste my time in search of answers unfound
Must make amends with myself, the god of death
Worship unto me, for I hold the key

Look in my eyes, deceiver
I know the poisoned mind your skull conceals
I'll smash apart, and search through the mess
Try to find some sign of life, some intelligence
I find nothing, the tomb is empty
So vacuous are the halls of your mind

A solitary pin drop echoes
For eternity

Endless, dissonant, distorted, feedback loop

Against all odds, I find my way
You just want me dead
Killing my fire within
You just wish I'd end
Against all odds, I find my way
Killing my soul that's within...
No compass
With stridence with we live by our own guidance
Storms pass, subsidence
But I, I will remain

I live my life by dead reckoning

I live my life by dead reckoning
I live my life by dead reckoning
