Flattering Of Emotions Where is the person that could have been Who, what took over, when did the end begin Should we not prepare for the uncertain Mysteries of our life, of our destiny See things that are not there Intruding voices What went wrong to their picture perfect life They once knew - Flattering of emotions [Solos: Schuldiner, Masvidal] A mind shared by an uninvited stranger Which comes and goes as choose to appear Should we not prepare for the uncertain Mysteries of our life, of our destiny See things that are not there Intruding voices What went wrong to their picture perfect life They once knew - Flattering of emotions 2. Suicide Machine Controlling their lives Deciding when and how they will die A victim of someone else's choice The ones who suffer have no voice Manipulating destiny When it comes to living, no one seems to care But when it comes to wanting out Those with power, will be there Prolong the pain How long will it last? Suicide machine A request to die with dignity Is that too much to ask? Suicide machine How easy it is to deny the pain Of someone else's suffering [Solos: Schuldiner, Masvidal] Robbed of natural abilities In death they now seek tranquility In a confused state of mind Extending agony, they must be blind Manipulating destiny When it comes to living, no one seems to care But when it comes to wanting out Those with power, will be there Prolong the pain How long will it last? Suicide machine A request to die with dignity Is that too much to ask? Suicide machine 3. Together As One Labelled a creation of evil Ridiculed for their shocking appearance Sharing both please and pain Two minds, two hearts, one soul Separating mentally An illusion of privacy Together - they absorb each other's lives As One - they will live and they will die A living hell has begun [Solo: Schuldiner] Displayed as a nightmare Criticized through words and eyes As they stare To the normal it seems grotesque Connected by a bond of flesh Two minds, two hearts, one soul Separating mentally An illusion of privacy Together - they absorb each other's lives As One - they will live and they will die A living hell has begun 4. Secret Face There is a mask That covers up one's true intentions Once removed, things become very clear Analyze behavior patterns to see beneath The person that is presented to you Vulnerable through trust Life is a twisted maze of obstacles Presented by people with a secret face [Solo: Schuldiner] What's on the outside Is not always all that is real Live by caution, what I feel When things are reversed People are shown for what they are The truth is revealed Banish the false Pacifying moments with an acquired disguise to obtain The things they want By the anguish of someone alse Materialistic motives are fulfilled Cherich the true Vulnerable through trust Life is a twisted maze of obstacles Presented by people with a secret face 5. Lack Of Comprehencion A condeming fear strikes down Things they cannot understand An excuse to cover up weaknesses that lie within Lies Laying your guilt and pain On people that had no part in the molding of a life That creates its destruction Lies Right before your very eyes A reflection of the mistakes To the end you will deny Your part in the demise of a life Lack of comprehension Thriving on your cliche Compelled by self-resentment [Solo: Schuldiner] Reaching into the minds of those that created The depression in which they In which they drowned their flesh and blood Lies So easy to blame the Everlasting fear on a pathetic attempt To justify the ending of life Lies Right before your very eyes A reflection of the mistakes To the end you will deny Your part in the demise of a life Lack of comprehension Thriving on your cliche Compelled by self-resentment 6. See Through Dream Born into darkness Where sounds portay the images that are out Out of reach from my sight Which has been denied Hands change into my eyes Body senses intensified Sight so close yet far away In dreams my thoughts take their form To give memories identify Through dreams I obtain The ability to connect sight with sound [Solo: Schuldiner] Close your eyes and imagine to be without What we take for granted every time we open eyes A permanent shadow to never step away Feel the dark in the cold Feel the warmth of the light Which has been denied Hands change into my eyes Body senses intensified Sight so close yet far away In dreams my thoughts take their form To give memories identify Through dreams I obtain The ability to connect sight with sound 7. Cosmic Sea [Instrumental] [Solos: Schuldiner, Masvidal] 8. Vacant Planets Mysterious object of flight on a voyage To correct what they have done, what we are doing Perhaps submerged, living in the inner most Recesses of the planet - no choice but To adapt to an underground world Limiting our passages of thought Are they the examples of regression A life form's abusive progression In a realm so vast, we sit among the Vacant Planets [Solos: Masvidal, Schuldiner] So many worlds yet to be seen that once have shared The same effects that come from greed, mass production Perhaps submerged, living in the inner most Recesses of the planet - no choice but To adapt to an underground world Limiting our passages of thought Are they the examples of regression A life form's abusive progression Chuck Schuldiner - Vocals/Guitars Paul Masvidal - Guitars Sean Reinert - Drums Steve DiGiorgio - Bass Bass on "Cosmic Sea" by Skott Carino NOTE: All lyrics are the property and copyright of their owners.
