When Darkness Reigns

My failure is so evident
 And I cannot hide the torment
 Face first to the earth
 Plagued by the earthly mindset
 I cannot escape my basement
 Face first to the earth
 Hands around my neck
 I might as well bow in shame
 Over matched, outwitted
 Defeat is my only name
 I believe everything you tell me
 And you've got me convinced I'm guilty
 I'd better close my eyes and sleep
 Run away 'cause tomorrow's a better day
 But this is your hour
 When darkness reigns
 But this is your hour
 When darkness reigns
 But this is your hour
 When darkness reigns
 But this is your hour
 When darkness reigns across the channels and mediums
 I feel the loss
 Face to face with the possible death of dreams
 Mental purity fades to the obscene
 Hence the search for another crutch
 Another void fill
 Another cane to serve as much
 And we'll mourn for the death of a brother lost
 And we'll toast to the death of another farce
 Have I lost the battle?
 But have I lost the war?
 Do I have what it takes to endure the setbacks
 Ignore the scars
 You'd have me adopt that suicide
 You'd have me succumb without reply
 But you forgot the thousand deaths I've died
 You'd have me continue this pace
 'Cause you'd like me to join your race
 But that grave will be nothing but an empty space
 Arise from the dead O sleeper
 Prepare for the battle cry
 'Cause this is the hour
 When truth divides
 'Cause this is the hour
 When truth divides
 'Cause this is the hour
 When truth divides
 'Cause this is the hour
 When truth divides it's done
 Revive the sick, the surge of blood
 Grab a torch and we'll light and burn
 Ignite offensives to claim the loss of sight
 Wipe the sleep from your eyes
 Release the fate of soul demise
 And it's clear for you to understand
 The smoke will clear and fill the land
 And now the claims are made
 Downcast eyes accompany shame
 The chaos amassed against will redirect
 To find a home anew
 To face the depths
 You've lost my enemy
 Now taste defeat
 Now taste your own saliva
 'Cause you'll never quench the heat
 Arise from the dead and wake
 Arise from the dead
 Arise from the dead and wake
 Arise from the dead
