1.	Archforce 05:00	lyrics
I am the love, I am the hate I am emotion, good and bad I am despair, I'm paradise I am the fear that grows within A fallen angel, a holy demon The balance between black and white I am your doom, I'm savior When the world as you know it dies All your secrets I hold inside I'm unrelenting, you are mine I am the hunter, I am the prey I am the flesh you feast upon You are my masters, you are my slaves Your gazes of fear flatter me I am the king, I am the queen I am the law that controls you I am the truth, I am the lie I am the word you say out loud All your secrets I hold inside I'm unrelenting, you are mine I'm not a god, I'm only you You worship me, I despise you You wonder my intricacy You belong to me All your secrets I hold inside I'm unrelenting, you are mine I'm not a god, I'm only you You worship me, I despise you You wonder my intricacy You belong to me
2.	False Prophet 03:31	lyrics
The hour of our doom draws near Feel nothing but remorse and fear The blackened sun shines upon us Our hands tremble, sanity gone Inside your mind The hunt is on - run Defy, deny Pray to the false god We set foot on the shores of Hell And so we say our last farewell The demons laugh, they see us fall What have I done? I've doomed us all Inside your mind The hunt is on - run Defy, deny Pray to the false god Save us The blade of heresy cuts through my skin This false prophecy is my only sin I despise everyone and my own fear Somebody tell me what the fuck I'm doing here I do not deserve salvation
3.	Where Day and Night Collide 04:37	lyrics
I am your night, you are my day We can't be together Not in this world Your eyes they shine like stars so bright As I embed the blade They shut their light Give me your hand, show me your scars I'll take you to a place Where we can become one Open your heart, trust me your love I'll take you to a place Where we'll be eternal The wound so deep, the pain you bleed I see your innocence These words I bless When your life passed, I held your hand Maybe in the next life I'll tell you why Give me your hand, show me your scars I'll take you to a place Where we can become one Open your heart, trust me your love I'll take you to a place Where we'll be eternal In death we love, we're eternal Our ways will never part Our hearts they become one I hold the key, I'll never leave I'll keep you by my side Our souls will never die
4.	The Rise of a Blood-Drawn Moon 02:06
5.	My Immortal Enemy 02:50	lyrics
Inside your head my chaos reigns You tried to die, you tried in vain This war I will not let you win Even if you are God and King I know I can't kill you It's not my plan anyway I just want you to feel What I feel because of you Your ridicule is just a stain You played it safe, I made you fail I ban your divine intervention And enforce my own resurrection I know I can't kill you It's not my plan anyway I just want you to feel What I feel because of you You held me down for too long I held you in, lost and gone Time has come to unleash my... Rage
6.	Angelica 04:45	lyrics
I crossed the seas to her I flied to heights for her I gave my heart to her I did everything Just to watch her burn I was buried alive I left myself to die I could not save her life Broke from the inside Just to break again I was a scar on her skin An evil scar that time healed I'm better off forgotten I'm nothing but a burden I only want her to know That she deserves more I threw my life away I cried the pain away I bled the tears away Gave it all away Just to feel her die I was a scar on her skin An evil scar that time healed I'm better off forgotten I'm nothing but a burden I only want her to know That she deserves more I would have killed for her She let me die for her I stole myself from her...
7.	Dirty Hearts and Broken Secrets 04:57	lyrics
I know this honest confession is just Another nail in the coffin I never denied you the right to know There's no forgiving what I did If you allow me, this agony will Be buried down beneath the earth Embed your curses underneath my skin And clean my heart of all the dirt I don't expect you to forgive all this But still somehow I wish you would I don't want to lose my desire to live I'm falling into endless doom The ghost of everything I will not hear The words that you will never speak The pain of doing the impossible I'm sick of all and everything I said I'm sorry but I didn't speak out loud I merely thought it in shades of regret I want to say it but I struggle to have faith Are you sure you want to stand in the rain?

about

The Santtu Pesonen Project Joensuu, Finland

Started in December of 2012 by a then-ambitious 18-year-old Santtu Pesonen, The Santtu Pesonen Project has served as the Finnish hobbyist musician's primary musical outlet. The project's sound originated in a style reminiscent of hard rock, and every album since the debut EP has steadily taken it more towards progressive rock/metal. ... more
