Edge of Existence

Here I stand at the edge of existence
Staring into oblivion
Can't you see what I've become? I have been petrified
I fear that all this waiting has turned my body to stone
All I can do is watch as my world falls apart
And cracks beneath my feet
Falling into the abyss, I am alone
I am alone now
Now I fall away from existence
Floating into oblivion
No one can pull me back, I've drifted too far
Into my own worst hell
Can't you see what I've become? I have been petrified
I fear that all this waiting has turned my body into stone
Falling into the abyss, I am alone
I am alone now
Falling into the abyss, I am alone
I am alone now
I am alone
I am alone in the abyss
Now I fall

Prometheus

Prometheus gave fire to man
Little did he know it would be his end
Left for dead like Prometheus
The eagle is here to eat us
The weight of the world
The burden is mine alone
The weight of the world
It will bury me
Don't let me waste away
The weight of the world
The burden is mine alone
The weight of the world
It will bury me
Don't let me waste away
I am what you made me
But I'm far from perfect
Don't blame me for what you had me do
Prometheus gave fire to man
Little did he know it would be his end
The guilt will drown me
The blame will take me away
The guilt will take me away
Damn me now
Blame me now
Left for dead like Prometheus
The eagle is here to eat us
Prometheus

All for Nothing

Please don't let it be all for nothing
I turned your trust to rust
When I hid behind my mask
Please don't let it be all for nothing
Your tears kill me
My chest feels so tight, I cannot breathe
I don't want you to feel this way
But I know its all my fault
I want to help you mend
But I'm the problem
So maybe I'll disappear
I'll disappear
And leave you to heal
And feel
Something other than pain
And strain
Of a broken heart
Broken love from a broken trust
I'll never be the same as I was then without...
You made me so much better than I was before you
I can hear it when you say my name
I know nothing will ever be the same
All your trust I turned to rust
When I hid behind my mask
Nothing will be the same
Don't let it go yet
I can't let it go yet
Don't let it go yet
I can't live without you
Don't let it go yet
I can't let it go yet
This is not over yet
I can't live without you
Without you I am nothing but broken

Something waits for me in the shadows
I know I'm the one that it follows
Manipulated by the fear
Afraid for everything I hold dear
I will never sleep again
I just don't think that I can
I've watched a thousand men Final track from The Archaic's soon-to-be released first demo.

Lyrics:
Something waits for me in the shadows
I know I'm the one that it follows
Manipulated by the fear
Afraid for everything I hold dear
I will never sleep again
I just don't think that I can
I've watched a thousand men never wake again
Never wake again
You haunt me in my dreams
Can you tell me what that means?
What it means to see you face even when you're not there
Cut the strings and set me free
Free from all this haunting
I will never be me, never be me, until I'm free
Guilt and shame and loss and pain
All become synonymous with your name
All the pain
And the shame
All the same
As your name
All the shame
And the blame
All the same
I tried to vanquish my demons
But I haven't learnt a thing
'Cause I'm still the same man as I was then
Trying to forgive myself for what I've done
I'm still the one who buried you
When you went down you took a part of me with you
Divided without a soul
Never again to be whole
