Ghosts 05:56
Smoke in our eyes We are now cursed Ash in our throat We are now cursed Choking gases Savage spectres  Extinct delights Ravaged wonders The rotting wild Salted land Bloated carrion Endless dust and sand Our grief, devastates us Blind to the blood on our hands Graveyards of skeletal forests The stink of a dying land Dead woodland once our lungs Our soul, where we begun Taint of man, violent spores Infection creeps once more Smoke burns our eyes  We are now cursed We'll yearn for ghosts,  Ghosts of broken earth We are now cursed We are now cursed We are now cursed By the ghosts of broken earth Memories fade Beauty now gone The haunt is all we'll know From today and now from now on   Our grief, devastates us Blind to the blood on our hands Graveyards of skeletal forests The stink of a dying land Our grief, devastates us Blind to the blood on our hands The grief The grief The blood on our hands Smoke burns our eyes  We are now cursed We'll yearn for ghosts,  Ghosts of broken earth   We are the ghosts We are now cursed We are the ghosts The ghosts of broken earth

Bloom 04:05
Too Late We See The truth  We thought These lands fertile and free Such entitlement hateful tendrils should’ve been clear This is not who we are? This is who we've always been Too Late We See The truth We thought these lands Fertile and free Such entitlement hateful tendrils should’ve been clear Refused to see the smoke, but now there is fire They've added the fuel, we're stuck in the mire  Where fear is fed, the wretched bloom,  Into a hopeless canopy, Then darkness Such Darkness It may feel so anathema  Blinded by our own authority Too Late We See The truth Of ourselves

Shadows 06:46
A fractured doorway,  Out of place,  So familiar  Something tight in every face   Embrace of home  Something is now stale The earth in my hands Once rich, now turning pale   The warmth of sanctuary Has turned cold and splintered Those bitter, scathing winds  Blow a deadly winter This dirt, my roots Something ugly grows I left, I went away Has that same ugliness not be sown A hint of dissonance,  Broken sounds in the night,  The hint of dissonance,  Shadows where there should be light Hold Your Torches  Aloft   These Roots Can Not Be Lost Hold Your Torches  Aloft
