Revelation 03:54
They shackle your hands to their shrine of death, and call it piety. They shackle your mind and numb your senses. Now you are virtuous. Who says? I say it’s my way. Don’t tell me how to. Who says? I say it’s my way. Don’t tell me how to. I will take your gods away. Reveal them as the devils they are. Crush your idols, turn your love to hate. Return them, turn them into dust. They render their judgement and expect your remorse, and call it grace. They suffer injustice and advocate pacifism... Call it hope. Who says? I say it’s my way. Don’t tell me how to. Who says? I say it’s my way. Don’t tell me how to. I will take your gods away. Show them for the devils they are. Crush your idols, turn your love to hate. Return them unto dust!

No Escape 04:16
Dominion of slavery, I breathe down the neck of compassion. Impatience, a virtue, in a world that never sleeps. Where is your patience? Rest now in agony, I’m feeding your every desire. Resistance, a final stand, the epitaph of your corruption. When I chase the night you know it never ends. Then will I face the night, when storms of rage descend. Well, when I chase the night, you know it never ends. Then will I face the night, when I chase the night again. Don’t resist the will to fight when friend becomes foe. Instead resist complacency. I’m not your enemy! As the world crumbles around us, realize you stand alone. The truth is that you’ve always been afraid of what reminds you. Where is your patience? Well, when I chase the night, you know it never ends. Then will I face the night, when storms of rage descend. Well when I chase the night you know it never ends. Then will I face the night, when I chase the night again. Where’s your patience?

A Dying Lie 04:55
We never run from anyone who tries to stop our liberation of the ones born inside a lie. They are blind, we shall free them from their oppressive desires. Burdened into proliferation, empowered by their own allies who cannot save them. They will die with their lie tonight. So why should we cease this fight? Whoever runs will die. No one leaves the fight. Whoever runs will die. Now reinforce the line! War has burned my eyes, now I want to live your lie. Will I long for life, when I have killed your light? We’ve never questioned anyone whose mind survived interrogation, whose answers made us realize that we’re at the end and it’s senseless, like our oppressive desires. Burdened into retaliation, empowered by our own denial that cannot save us. We will! Die, with their lie tonight. So why can’t we cease this fight? Whoever runs will die. No one leaves the fight. Whoever runs will die. Now reinforce the line! War has burned my eyes, now I want to live your lie. Will I long for life when I have killed your light? Who decides who lives, who dies? Who decides who lives, who dies? Who decides who lives, who dies, who lives, who dies? Don’t breathe the lie that you know! Who decides who lives, who dies? Who decides who lives, who dies? Who decides who lives, who dies, who lives, who dies? Don’t breathe the lie that you know! Why?

Insane 04:07
Well, it’s your imagination. ‘Cause when you ask a ques- tion, there’s another side of you that wants a lie. So why’re you comin’ to me now? ‘Cause you never used to care, which of them was wrong or right. Am I going insane? Are you even real? But if I’m going insane, what does it mean to feel? Well, it’s your expectations. Let me pose a question, that if you ever learn the truth you’ll feel denied. So why’re you lookin’ at me now? Is it really so absurd, that all your so called friends have lied to you? Am I going insane? Are you even real? But if I’m going insane, what does it mean to feel? Am I going insane? Is this even real? But if I’m going insane, what does it mean to... Forget about the answers, what about the questions? What if I told you that the road your on is destined to forget the questions, and give you answers the likes of which the world has never known. Why can’t you forget about the answers, what about the questions, the likes of which the world has never known? Am I insane? Is this even real? But if I’m going insane, what does it mean to feel? Are you even real? What does it mean to forget about the answers? What about the questions? What if I told you that the road your on is destined to forget the questions, and give you answers the likes of which the world has never known. Why can’t you forget about the answers? What about the questions the likes of which the world has never known?

True Life 06:18
Life is a means to the end of creation, and still the mind reigns where the heart is wisest. I won’t stop until there is nothing left to die for, nothing left to teach us hate. You would have us believe, that faith is everything. But it’s nothing but a veil that hides the world of truth. I won’t stop until there is nothing left to die for, nothing left to teach us hate. Scolding the people that cast you aside. Heathens, you call them. But you, you are the heathens, betrayers of true life. Savour true life. No one to catch you, no one to say what is right. Savour true life. Nothing to die for, nothing to teach us hate. Taking power where weakness reigns: the meek will never die! How is it you come to thrive, you thief of innocense and decency. I won’t stop until there is nothing left to die for, nothing left to teach us hate. Savour true life. No one to catch you, no one to say what is right. Savour true life. Nothing to die for, nothing to teach us hate. Savour true life.

Burn to Life 05:25
Shatter me, crush my thoughts. I’m your star, I’ll haunt your skies forever. What is this place that we enhabit? Why is there nothing left to see? Can you help us find our way back to a place where we should be? Burn me, I will wait no more. Show me fire breathed from passion. I will wait no more. Show me fire breathed from passion. Shatter me, crush my thoughts. I’m your star, I’ll haunt your skies forever. Hating the ones we need. Imprisoned by our obsession, our poisons and our greed. What is the value of life when it’s spent wanting, waiting for our hearts to stop. A life without passion is a life without living. Burn me, I will wait no more. Show me fire breathed from passion. I will wait no more. Show me fire breathed from passion. There’s no place like home when you are waiting to die.

As I stand on the precipice of my denial, your voice echoes in my mind. The circles of my absence cannot be ignored. Voices of the heart must not go unanswered. Help me break the cycle, loosen the chains around my heart. ‘Cause I will not be ignored! When I drink and drive the night away. When I drink I drive the night. Weakness torments me as I spiral into distrust, while you turn to dust. Our battle, hidden from the ones that feed on your duplicity, corrupting my connections to the ones that love your masks. I want to hate you, but to hate you now is to hate myself. Why can’t you turn and face me anymore? When I drink and drive the night away. When I drink I drive the night.

Self Denial 05:39
Never knowing what to think, I dig inside myself only to find that I’m empty. There is nothing that I want, only to find a way to rid me of this burden. I stand alone as I become myself, shedding my past and all the lessons I have taken. Never in the dark but never confident, I’m losing ground to feeling what I know is real. No one wants to hate the one who hides behind their tongue. Calls them a lie to serve the ones, who want to hate the one shunned before their sun, calm in denial. Inside I will die because I wait for you. Drifting on an abyss, a boundless surface with a depth that’s haunting my every dream, a single wish to giving in and going under with the fire. Never to return to doubt and conflict, my inner being now a mirror of the outside. Uncertain if I still choose my self or if reality is simply just illusion. No one, wants to hate the one who hides behind their tongue. Calls them a lie to serve the ones, who want to hate the one shunned before their sun, calm in denial. Inside I will die because I wait for you.
9.
Don’t speak to me of sacrifice, you’re not the only one that hungers for the way things used to be. You tell me you feel paralyzed, but I’m not the one who gave up knowing that the end of love was nigh. Never again will I endure your silence. Turn into the light when the time comes for your intention. Don’t deny yourself, be alive. Be warned of nightmares disguised as dreams that haunt and linger. Only confidence can save you now from wounds that never heal. Never again will I endure your silence. There’s no salvation from despair with wounds that never heal. Never again will I endure your silence. Turn into the light, when the time comes for your intention. Don’t deny yourself, be alive. You’re never alone. Even in my absence, you were never alone.

about

Resurrect Tomorrow Utrecht, The Netherlands

Sporting a brutal sound and lyrics to match, Resurrect Tomorrow launched themselves into the fray with their first album "A Dying Lie". A heavy album filled with often very personal stories, it strikes a confrontational tone where nothing is beyond question. A less is more and no-subtelty attitude means that nothing is ever loud enough, as the band strives to give 110% every step of the way. ... more
