[Agony] I am pain

I am real. I'm not a dream

I'm the chain around your neck as you scream

Surrender now

You can't beat death at his ruthless game

Make your bow

Hang your head in shame

[Me] I can't believe there is no way out...

[Agony] You'll find you are wrong

[Me] You fill me with doubt...

[Agony] You were never that strong

[Agony] I am pain

I am the wound that never heals

It's all in vain

No compromise, no deals...

[Me] I can't believe this is the end

[Agony] It's written in stone

[Me] Where are my friends?

[Agony] You have always been alone!

[Rage] (Pain!) We lead

We hide as the pain leaves the rage inside

(Motion personified alpha)

Being here, welcomed by...a sane mind

A travelled lie

[Agony] I am pain

I am the end, I am your wraith

Nothing remains

I'm the loss of hope and faith

[Me] I can't believe there is no way out...

[Agony] You'll I find you are wrong

[Me] You fill me with doubt...

[Agony] You were never that strong

[Rage] We lead, we hide as the pain leaves the rage inside

(Motion personified alpha)

Being here, welcomed by...a sane mind

A travelled lie

All the time, I had waited with rage

All the time, I was promised my salvation

[Love] I can't accept this, we will find a way

Out of this cesspool of doom and dismay

Beyond this dejection there's beauty and grace

A glorious future we long to embrace

[Rage] (Pain!) All the time, I have waited with rage

(Motion personified alpha)

All the time, I was promised my salvation
