Song Description

I deep look into the study of one mans struggle with depression brought on by the Season of Death, Winter. The grayness, the sunless days take their toll on everyday life.

Lyrics

Season of Death (In three acts)

ACT I ? ?The realization?

Eleven Twenty Nine,
Here I stand alone.
The chill of the approaching season cuts right through me.

The cemetery gates,
Memories are fading.
The past of the approaching future is left to see.

How many times must I go through this?
Insanity, she comes and goes.
To take away my pain,
To help my mind sustain,
To save me from this self indulgent torture.

The winter comes,
The winter goes,
The cycle turns the soul to stone.
The old man dies,
The young man lives,
The soul reborn again just to stand alone.

The season of death is here.
The passing of time is clear.
The means to an end,
A judgment call by a blind man in a silent room.
What is left to validate.
What is love and not to hate.
What is death without dying,
A soul that cries by a deaf man in a darkened room.


The season of death is coming,
The season of death is calling.
The season of death will cleanse you for another year.
The season of death it knows you,
The season of death you?ll go through.
The season of death will be all you ever know here.


Act II ? ?The Confrontation?

Don't sacrifice my bad intentions,
just to fuel your own design.
Swallowed whole by your inventions,
plant the seed in your mind.
Mourning brings you soul suspensions,
that won't help, you this time.
No more need for intervention,
This is the end of your life.

(pre-chorus)
I... dont need you..
And I... will Bleed you..
Take from me the pain that's given.
Steal from me my own religion.
I... don't need you...
Take from me the pain that's given.
I... will bleed you..
Steal from me my own religion.

(Chorus)
Look to me with bloodied eyes,
there is no faith to analyse.
Just...Show... me... your... pain! Show me your pain.
These steps lead to paradise,
One more soul to sacrifice.
Just...Show... me... your... pain! Show me your pain.

Keep winding up this institution,
willing out your soul to bleed.
Keep in mind this is retribution,
to fill the void to plant the seed.
From me this takes no constitution,
my hate flows from this basic need.
Spare me this mental prostitution,
deliver me from insanity.

(pre-chorus)
(Chorus)
Just...Show... me... your... pain! Show me your....
Just...Show... me... your... pain! Show me your....
Just...Show... me... your... pain! Show me your....
Just...Show... me... your... pain! Show me.

(solo)

Just...Show... me...
Look to me with bloodied eyes,
Just...Show... me...
there is no faith to analyse.
Just...Show... me...
These steps lead to paradise,
Just...Show... me...
One more soul to sacrifice.

Act III ? ?The Finale?

Some how you found me after all these years.
In my mind I thought you just a memory.
You were once my savior, my life, my love, my only light.
But now I see the truth and the pain has stricken me.

Darkened visions that once held their grip on me,
Have left the body and the mindless to transend.
And now my enemy, my pain, my love, my darkness,
There is no rest for me until you meet your end.

(Chorus)
Be-trayed,
So a-fraid.
This is not,
what dreams are ma-de of.
Be-trayed.
Not a-fraid.
This is what
Nightmares are ma-de of.

The season of death it knows you,
The season of death you?ll go through.
The season of death will be all you ever know here.
