Face Without Soul
Reflections of Lost Identity: Benediction's 'Face Without Soul'
Lyrics
Reflected face, dragged from the void without a soul
Reflected face, pulled from emptiness, lacks a soul
Illusive dream, poisoned with no control
An illusory dream tainted by uncontrollable forces
Consuming time, condemned arise from glassy sleep
Time-consuming, condemned emergence from a deep, dreamless sleep
A vengeful mind, prowling into dreams it seeps
A vengeful mind infiltrates dreams with predatory intent
Now it seeps
The infiltration intensifies
Murdered mirror takes revenge upon the narcissic one
A murdered mirror seeks revenge against the narcissistic individual
A trail of vengeance follows, bleaching bones a bastard son
A trail of vengeance follows, leaving a destructive legacy
Gaze upon silver coloured soul, bizarre occurs
Gazing at a soul with a silver hue, witnessing bizarre occurrences
Rapid ageing, growing old, alias the blur
Rapid aging, growing old, under an assumed identity
Anomalous entity
An anomalous entity with unsettling qualities
Drawn into your dream
Drawn into a dream, becoming part of it
Solace ingesting age
Solace found in consuming age
Is in the way it breeds
Age breeds solace in a peculiar way
Bitterness the crying words
Bitter words express the pain of betrayal
Corroded affair betrayed
An affair corroded by bitterness
Weeping in its futile anguish
Weeping in futile anguish, causing devastation
Leaving its victims shattered and decayed
Leaving victims shattered and decayed
Pause for reflection
A moment to pause and reflect
Screeching, deformed, frozen face
Screeching, deformed, frozen face emerges threateningly
Threatening from the unquiet place
Threatening presence from an unsettling place
Stalking beauty to feel such pain
Stalking beauty to experience intense pain
A pleasing violence it's so insane
A pleasing violence that is profoundly insane
So insane
Emphasizing the insanity of the situation
In reflection the eyes they glare and gleam
In the reflection, eyes glare and gleam
Muted howlings from within a victims dream
Muted howlings resonate within the dream of a victim
Ferocious are its embroilled cries
Ferocious cries echo in the embroiled situation
The mirror never lies
The mirror, a truth-teller, never deceives
