🏚️ Track 4 – "Sanctuary" 🔒

Dive into the haunting depths of the mind with this powerful chapter of Echoes of a Broken Mind. "Sanctuary" twists and turns through chaos, fear, and the labyrinth of despair. Crushing riffs 🎸, chilling vocals 🗣️, and atmospheric undertones 🌫️ pull the listener into a false refuge, one that soon becomes a prison. There's no escape.... or is there?

Choose Me Over Oxygen

A cry for release. Take Me Away blends gothic sorrow with crushing metal power; a track built on haunting riffs, thunderous drums, and vocals dripping with raw emotion.

This is the sound of despair turned into defiance: a voice rising from the shadows, begging for escape yet roaring with strength. The atmosphere is heavy, cinematic, and tragic, echoing like prayers lost among gravestones.

Lyrics:

I walk around
And all I see is evil
Angry, mad
And simply twisted people

I pantomime 
And pretend that I am one
Sick and sad
Like my wicked ways have come

I move around
And all I see are walking dead
Frozen, scared
It’s filled my heart with dread

Behind my eyes, there is another way
To bring the light of good to the day
To break the place where the wicked stay
Or if it does not work, take me away

I have no heart to give today
When it’s my soul that has to pay
I have nothing left to say
Take me away!
Please take me away!

I break away
Before the burning of the cross
Sick and sad
I can’t handle all this loss

I run away
Before the sickness gets inside
Fast and scared
Before the light inside me dies

Now I’m free
I left the evil well behind
Full of hope
For the nature of mankind

Behind my eyes, there is another way
To bring the light of good to the day
To break the place where the wicked stay
Or if it does not work, take me away

I have no heart to give today
When it’s my soul that has to pay
I have nothing left to say
Take me away!
Please take me away!

Take Me Away

They shake your hand, they wink and smile
Sellin’ lust and lies in every aisle
Politicians in their fancy suits
But we’re the sheep that follow their boots

Money, power, sex on display
We cheer them on, yeah we pay to play!

Sheep in suits, dancing for the crown
We bang our heads while they tear it down
Sheep in suits, we lick their boots
Love, sex, and power… follow the loot!


Backroom deals and cocktail thrills
Hot blondes, red wine, political kills
We all nod, we all obey
Chasing pleasure, while they make the play


Money, power, sex on display
We cheer them on, yeah we pay to play!


Sheep in suits, dancing for the crown
We bang our heads while they tear it down
Sheep in suits, we lick their boots
Love, sex, and power… follow the loot!


Raise your glass, bite your lip
Power’s a game, we all trip
In bed, in streets, on the floor
The world’s a stage, we beg for more


Sheep in suits, dancing for the crown
We bang our heads while they tear it down
Sheep in suits, we lick their boots
Love, sex, and power… follow the loot!


Follow… the loot… (bang your head…)
Sheep… in suits… (never stop…)
Love… and power… (scream it loud…)

Sheep In Suits

Forge of Eternal Wrath

Iron Uprising

The day you that you died 
Was the first time in years that I cried 
I fight it off don’t want to feel 
Tell myself this isn’t real 

The silence fills the room 
But it feels so heavy 
I don’t know what I’m supposed to do 
The static on tv 
Drowns out the way I’m feeling 
Fuck the way I’m feeling 
I’m angry that you died for no reason 
Feels like my heart won’t stop bleeding 

Bleeding I feel it 
Just take it 
Embrace it 
Take me 
I’ll fake it 
I made it 
Don’t break it 

The day you that you died 
Was the first time in years that I cried 
I fight it off don’t want to feel 
Tell myself this isn’t real

Breathe in breathe out 
Breathe in breathe out 
My heart sinks in my chest 
I’m a fucked up mess 
My heart sinks in my chest 
I’m a fucked up mess 
Is this the bitter end 

The day you that you died 
Was the first time in years that I cried 
I fight it off don’t want to feel 
Tell myself this isn’t real

Bitter ends (prod. 52Blu)

{{BEST OF ME}} (Prod.52blu)

[Verse 1]
Buried beneath your goddamn halo,
You preached, I bled, you burned me slow.
Carved my sins in your holy name,
You smiled when I drowned in shame.
Now I’m clawing through the dirt again,
A requiem soaked in blood and gin.
Angels turn their heads away,
’Cause I’m the curse they couldn’t slay.

[Pre-Chorus]
I hear your whispers callin’ me back,
From the black of the earth, from a heart gone cracked.
You dressed my corpse in chains and lace,
Now I rise to spit in your face.

[Chorus]
Upon my grave, I stand again,
Screamin’ fuck your cross, fuck your Amen!
I built my throne from my decay,
Kiss the dead and watch ’em sway.
Upon my grave, I breathe your hate,
Crown of dirt, my twisted fate.
Light the pyre, let heaven shake,
Upon my grave, the gods will break.

[Verse 2]
Your prayers are poison in disguise,
Drippin’ honey from serpent lies.
I was the saint you crucified,
But the sinner in me never died.
Through every crack in my coffin lid,
I felt your guilt for what you did.
Now your church will taste my rot,
Your holy water turns to clot.

[Pre-Chorus]
You thought I’d fade in dirt and flame,
But even death can’t kill my name.
From bones to dust, from hate to grace,
I smile as the worms embrace.

[Chorus]
Upon my grave, I stand again,
Screamin’ fuck your cross, fuck your Amen!
I built my throne from my decay,
Kiss the dead and watch ’em sway.
Upon my grave, I breathe your hate,
Crown of dirt, my twisted fate.
Light the pyre, let heaven shake,
Upon my grave, the gods will break.

[Bridge – (guttural growl and melodic scream)]
Bleed the choir, burn the light,
Let my ghost feast on the night!
Every tear you dropped was fake,
Now feel the earth beneath you quake!

[Outro]
Lay the roses, cold and black,
I’m the ghost that won’t turn back.
From the pit, I rise, depraved
Forever crowned upon my grave
