In chemistry, acylation (rarely, but more formally: alkanoylation) is the process of adding an acyl group to a compound. The compound providing the acyl group is called the acylating agent.
Because they form a strong electrophile when treated with some metal catalysts, acyl halides are commonly used as acylating agents. For example, Friedel-Crafts acylation uses acetyl chloride (ethanoyl chloride), CH3COCl, as the agent and aluminum chloride (AlCl3) as a catalyst to add an ethanoyl (acetyl) group to benzene:
The mechanism of this reaction is electrophilic substitution.
Acyl halides and anhydrides of carboxylic acids are also commonly used acylating agents to acylate amines to form amides or acylate alcohols to form esters. The amines and alcohols are nucleophiles; the mechanism is nucleophilic addition-elimination. Succinic acid is also commonly used in a specific type of acylation called succination. Oversuccination occurs when more than one succinate adds to a single compound.
Protein acylation is the post-translational modification of proteins via the attachment of functional groups through acyl linkages. One prominent type is fatty acylation, the addition of fatty acids to particular amino acids (e.g. myristoylation or palmitoylation). Protein acylation has been observed as a mechanism of biological signaling.
People say we got it made,
Don't they know we're so afraid?
Isolation.
We're afraid to be alone,
Ev'rybody got to have a home.
Isolation.
Just a boy and a little girl,
Tryin' to change the whole wide world.
Isolation.
The world is just a little town,
Ev'rybody tryin' to put us down.
I-hi-hi,
I-hi-hi-hi-solation!
I don't expect you to understand,
After you've caused so much pain.
But then again, you're not to blame,
You're just a human, a victim of the insane.
We're afraid of ev'ryone,
Afraid of the sun.
Isolation.
The sun will never disappear,
But the world may not have many years.
I-hi-hi,
Needed you
you were only using
needed you
just tore me down.
Here I stand in isolation
feeling emtiness and doubt.
Walking down the broken highway
sucking sugar plain and sweet.
Did your mother ever tell you that the joyful are the free?
I need some lovin' like an inmate neecls a dime
I need some lovin' like a poet needs a rhyme.
Here I stand - in isolation.
My empty hands - in isolation.
Walking down the broken highway
sucking sugar 'cause it's my way.
Find me one heart to complete with
heading for the farthest reaches.
I need some lovin' like a body needs a soul
I need some lovin' like a fastball needs control.
Here I stand - in isolation
my empty hands - in isolation.
Strike up the band - in this proud land -
Got a lot to do
got a lot to say
got a life to live
Got a lot to do
got a lot to say
got a life to live.
People say we got it made don't they know we're so afriad

We're afrain of everyone, afraid of the sun
Isolation
The Sun will never disappear
but the world my not have many years
Here in isolation
Seeing more than the eye can see
Safe in peaceful silence
So far out of reach
Closer to purest liberty
Isolation is what I seek
Manifest with the long lost truth
Where pain and agony is absolute
In this life of sadness
True serenity lies within
Dream of distant places
Where no soul has ever been
In my mind
No time, no space
So close
People say we got it made
Don't they know we're so afraid
Isolation
We're afraid to be alone
Everybody got to have a home
Isolation
Just a boy and a little girl
Trying to change the whole wide world

We're afraid of everyone
Afraid of the sun
Isolation
The sun will never disappear
But the world may not have many years
I'm stranded here in a dream and there's no ticket back
I feel a cold wind blowin', my future looks black
You left me here and you've taken all my yesterdays
I guess to stand alone is the price that I pay
Now look what you've done to me
Because we just disagree
I'm out here alone and it's you that I'm waiting for
Can't go livin' without you, girl
It doesn't matter what you say or do, girl
Can't go livin' without you, girl
Isolation
I close my eyes and you're dancin' in the moonlight with me
I try to touch you, but you, you had to get free
I turned around and you're nowhere left in sight
I'm just a lone survivor, you know it ain't right
Now look what you've done to me
Because we just disagree
I'm out here alone and it's you that I'm waiting for
Can't go livin' without you, girl
You know that I'll be waiting here for you, girl
Can't go livin' without you, girl
Isolation
I remember holding you just yesterday
But you're memory is all that I have today
We were talking 'bout promises we once had made
But you never came back
Why'd you run away
(You ran away)
Can't go livin' without you, girl
It doesn't matter what you say or do
Can't go livin' without you, girl
Isolation
Girl, I'm so isolated
Can't go livin' without you, girl, oh
Girl, you know I'm gonna wait for you
Can't go livin' without you, girl
Raindrops fall to cleanse my soul
The song of whales tear me apart
My eyes still stray along this shore
A seagulls` plaint adoring mine
My tongue too weak to speak a word
O` was I born to be misunderstood
Fingers touch, but do not feel
O` tired seem my restless eyes
So tired is my smile
In my endless depth of guilt
A cripple of my fear
And the needle serves me well
Memories now wash ashore
I feel remains of sympathy
Imagine the ability
To gather roses in winter....
Somebody
Something
Welcomed me
On the other side
Dank and gentle
Moist and soft
Almost like lone
The needle serves me well
But whom have I to blame ?
Just the cripple of my fear
Just call my disguise
The needle serves me well
The needle serves me well
But whom have I to blame ?
So tired is my smile
Was I born to astray
In my endless depth of guilt ?
Just a cripple of my fear
Just call my disguise
Just almost like love
I'm living my life in a separate way
Looking for something from day to day
There is a searchlight in my heart
There's an empty space where nothing grows
There is no life for the rose
Only a shadow in my heart
I'm living in a world of isolation
I'm living in a world of isolation
Well I've watched the waves come and go
And I can never escape from what I know
There is but water on my heart
But I see you in a special way
It's a sensation on what it says
Because we are living world's apart
I'm living in a world of isolation
I'm living in a world of isolation
[Solo]
I'm living in a world of isolation
I'm living in a world of isolation
Isolation, oh yeah

In isolation
In fear every day, every evening
He calls her aloud from above
Carefully watched for a reason
Painstaking devotion and love
Surrendered to self preservation
From others who care for themselves
A blindness that touches perfection
But hurts just like anything else
Isolation, isolation, isolation
Mother, I tried, please believe me
I'm doing the best that I can
I'm ashamed of the things I've been put through
I'm ashamed of the person I am
Isolation, isolation, isolation
But if you could just see the beauty
These things I could never describe
These pleasures, a wayward distraction
This is my one, lucky prize
Isolation, isolation, isolation
Afraid to say hello
Afraid they might know
Afraid to say hello
Afraid to face the day
Pain won't go
Afraid to face the day
Oh, so cold, oh, so cold
If I had a home
A pillow of my own
Maybe I'd go home
They gave me wings to fly
And took away the sky
Left me here to lie
Oh, so cold, oh, so cold
Whisper once again
Those sweet words in my ear
Whisper once again
Say it soft and clear
Did I hear you say that you loved me
Did I hear you say that you knew
Just for a moment
There was company that knew
The feeling of isolation too
The light went on ...
No more fear in the morning
No more hate in the morning
I love to feel the morning
Feel love in the morning
Just for a moment
There was company that knew
The feeling of isolation too
In the clear of the dayevery eveninghe calls for a love from abovecarefully watch for a reasonmistaking devotion and love

Shall overcome
Someday
See, uh
When you are awake, I'm asleep
And when you are asleep, I will awake
And I will live neither in this cell
Nor in my heart
Only in my head
Yeah, some motherfucker told me um
I needed to stop dwelling in the past
Deafened by the dissident harmonies
Of sick white crackers
And the tyranny of the self righteous
As I live in my desire
For emptiness
Hate
Is all you see
And in my fear of becoming like you
I gauged out my eyes, damn
You know? be worried about the man
? need to worry about themselves
But all this political bullsh*t
Be fucking up my high
And to you?
I am but the offspring of an obsolete machine
But your myth of superiority
Would not exist
Without me
Send me
Shall overcome
Someday, someday
Someday
You prey on the weak to fulfill your lust
And what you perceive as the kingdom of god
Is no more than the word of man
And his fear of death
Shall overcome
Someday
Someday
Yeah, mmm
See paradise
Is the fact that I exist
And I exist
Despite you
I exist
I exist
Despite you
Despite you

Iso -
Living my life in a seperate way
Living on my own from day to day
Under two nations
In isolation
Oh yeah, living under two nations
In isolation
Oh yeah, living under two nations
So hear me now
This weakened voicing
Listen one last time
It is dying
Here at the end I am
Watching closely
Afraid to see you
Afraid to be
So here it is again
This loneliness of mine
I can't seem to find you
I don't believe you're there
Is this your hand?
Is this the turning?
I need to say I lost you
I need to say goodbye
And save me from this blinding night
Of nothing
Save me from the dying
Save me from my god
Choose to find salvation in the sorrow
I hope to see you laughing
Laughing at the end
So here it is again
This loneliness of mine
I can't seem to find you
I don't believe you're there
Is this your hand?
Is this the turning?
I need to say I lost you
I need to say goodbye
I'm standing here in line
Hoping to see
My dreams are intertwined
I'm here by your side
So here it is with me
This old friend of mine
I'm trying to break free
I'm here by your side
So here it is again
This loneliness of mine
I can't seem to find you
I don't believe you're there
Is this your hand?
Is this the turning?
I need to say I lost you
You arrive like a dragonfly
Float above the grass, trembling still
Think you might open up your heart
Open up your heart, someday you will
Yes, there's always a way
Yes, there's always a way
To end this isolation
When you rise like the Milky Way
On a luminous night the epic unknown
Though I try, try to find a sign
Of another life, I am alone
And there's always a way
Yes, there's always a way
To end this isolation
One step away from everyone
If you could open it up
You could connect it to us
One step is more than enough
To get a look in
You could be already gone
I wish you would take me along
To end this isolation
To end this isolation
I try so hard to get it right
Look for something in your eyes
And I see it
But you won't let yourself feel it
I wait for you to make a sign
Let the door open in your eyes
And I believe it
People say we've got it made
Don't they know we're so afraid?
Isolation
We're afraid to be alone
Everybody's got to get a home
Isolation
Just a boy and a little girl
Trying to change the whole wide world
Isolation
The world is just a little town
Everybody's trying to put us down
Isolation
I don't expect you to understand
After you caused so much pain
But then again, you're not to blame
You're just a human
We're afraid of everyone
We're afraid of the sun
Isolation
They say we'll never disappear
The world may not have many years
In time we fly in time we die
Oh--oh--oh
Know what it feels to be lonely
Don't know how it feels to be free
Reacting wild, some moody child
Don't know what's in store for me
Oh--out in the cold--isolation
Out on my own--isolation
Out all alone
Up go the golden mast
Float out to sea at last
Roamed a thousand miles
Still lonesome child
But my ship is comin' in
Oh--out in the cold--isolation
Out on my own--isolation
Out all alone
It's my test no fight with myself I ain't wrong
It's my quest a life with myself I am gone
Oh yea isolation
Oh yea isolation
Out in the cold isolation
Out on my own isolation
Out in the cold isolation
Out on my own
Isolation out in the cold
Isolation out on my own
Isolation out in the cold
Isolation out on my own
Isolation out in the cold
Overflowing with hatred, I cannot contain me, I erupt
I feel violent, volatile, on the verge of destruction
So lost inside myself, it resonates this beating against my head and heart
So lost inside myself, it isolates as routine bites hard
This downward spiral, this endless circle, this solitude
so you think i'm crazy
want to take me away
inject me with electric shock
i'm not going nowhere
hear what i say loud and clear
reveal your sly intentions
and free my isolation
a second longer say it's alright
a second longer say it's alright
a second longer i'll be insane
and what you say
the second i become you
fry electricity
gas me till i pass on out
run your wires through me
weep to ease the tension
with your failed philosophies
and free my isolation
you will not control me
a second longer say it's alright
a second longer i'll be insane
a second longer say it's alright
the second i become you
and what you say
lost my mind today
called me a liar
it was my desire
i told them what was wrong but they
yeah, they called me a liar
why should i care what they say
i am not afraid
they called me a liar
i told them they were wrong still
so i set 'em on fire
Isolation always grows
Cold frustration fills our souls
Disillusion is the goal
Direct the masses
Let the profit grow
We spend our lives in apathy
But there's much more than we can see
Manipulate our destiny
But we are still feeling free
We live by the threat of their methods
We are hiding like worms in the meadows
We don't know what's going on
We` ll never know what's going on
With our innocent minds
We don't know what's going on
We ll never know what's going on
What are we living for
What are we fighting for
Is it wealth or even more
The rhythm of our daily lifes
Work, eat, shit and sleep at night
We walk around with brainwashed minds
That's what we ll never get in mind
We live by the threat of their methods
We are hiding like worms in the meadows
We don't see what's going on
We' ll never see what's going on
We are living their lies
With our innocent minds
We don't know what's going on
We' ll never know what's going on
We are living their live with our innocent minds
Isolation fills our souls
Communication is running low
They' ve achieved the final goal
Raise production and the profit grows
We spend our lifes in agony
But there's much more than we can see
Manipulated destiny
But we are still feeling free
We live by the threat of their methods
We are hiding like worms in the meadows
We don't know what's going on
Well never know what's going on
We are living their lies
With our innocent minds
We don't see what's going on
We' ll never see what's going on
We are living their lies
L: Igor L. and Claudio C. M: Igor L.
Isolating myself, from a thousand lies
From all those empty plights, avoid all that hurts
No contact with external, entombed in my mind
Coldness surrounds me, like a womb of thorns
Chorus x2:
Like a shivering stone
Covered by a shivering hand
A pale, static face, behind a misty glass
Denying the ritual, erasing all codes
Cast away from this, a world which I will leave
Just longing for the call of my bitter god
Chorus x2
Silently, Tacitly, in an endless row
Ageless images, call you by an unknown name
Endlessly in the hollow age, always to lie outside
Gather round
Collect your fears
I know the story well
You'll believe
It's all so clear
The lies we often tell
In the pages
Of this life
That somehow twist
Your head around
Feel the raging will
To fight for things
You want right now
No one can help us
No one decides
Deep in isolation
We were left to die
No one can find us
We can only pray
It's our destination
To live another day
Save your tears don't allow
Weakness to prevail
All the years all this time
Is now a distant haze
And though everything
Dropped out from under you
So long ago times are so uncertain
You're afraid to try alone
No one can help us
No one this time
Deep in isolation
The future is denied
No can find us
We can only pray
It's our destination
To live another day
No one can help us
No one this time
Deep in isolation
In fear every day, every evening
He calls her aloud from above
Carefully watched for a reason
Painstaking devotion and love
Surrendered to self preservation
From others who care for themselves
A blindness that touches perfection
But hurts just like anything else
Isolation, isolation, isolation
Mother, I tried, please, believe me
I'm doing the best that I can
I'm ashamed of the things I've been put through
I'm ashamed of the person I am
Isolation, isolation, isolation
But if you could just see the beauty
These things I could never describe
This is my one consolation
This is my wonderful prize
Did your wants of sin,
Crumble at your feet?
Does the blood on your face,
And your hands taste too sweet?
And in my mind,
You were looking fine.
Well isolation.
Well and inside, you aint fine to me
Well isolation, desolation.
Don't wait for me,
Well at the edge of the world.
Yeah, don't come to me at all.
The way you look and think of me,
Well it's much,
much,
much,
much too strong.
And in my mind
You were looking fine
Well isolation.
Well and inside, you aint fine to me.
Well isolation, desolation.
Don't wait for me,
Well at the edge of the world.
Yeah, don't come to me at all yeah.
The way you look and think of me,
Well it's much,
much,
much,
much too strong.
And in my mind,
You were looking fine.
Well isolation.
Well and inside, you ain't fine to me,
When all is lost to you inside
When all the darkness takes the light
The ritual it has begun
And now you tear away from everyone
Disconnected so alone yeah
Severed ties from all you know
Isolation Brings you to the end
Until you love again
Isolation If you could only see
What will come to be
Yeah!
Justify you waste away
You dare to dream but still you're too afraid
And now you're broken and deceived
Lost to live this cruel reality
You're disconnected so alone
Severed ties from all you know
Isolation Brings you to the end
Until you love again
Isolation If you could only see
What will come to be
Yeah!
Maybe you'll stand
Maybe you'll give and break to find another way
And make things better
Maybe you'll find
A life you can live and learn to love along the way
And make things better
And make things better
Isolation Brings you to the end
Until you love again
Isolation If you could only see
What will come to be
Yeah!
Isolation Brings you to the end
Until you love again
Isolation If you could only see
What will come to be
You're disconnected so alone
What will come to be?
Release
Thirty years of nothing
Macabre chilling scene
Heinous is the rescue of the
infants soulless screams
Raking up the past
Opposites attack
Adjustment brings me danger
Let sleeping dogs lay
Confronting guilt
strange faces appear
Allies are Foreign
conscience of blood
Taken at birth
happiness abused
History is hanging
for the ten score and three
Thirty long years of nothing
In exile
stripped away
all is lost
Sterile life static law
Sterile life static law
Thirty years of nothing
Surviving the test of time
Fermented controlled chaos
Left in a dirty malingering lie
Tested is my courage
skeletons appear
Adjustment brings me danger
Let sleeping dogs lay
Retracing steps faking ties
Running hard saved my life
Emotional blackmail
The well of forgiveness has run dry
Sterile life static law
Sterile life static law
Thirty years of nothing
Thirty years of nothing
Thirty years of nothing
Isolation is like serving time
except in this case I've done no crime
I choose to be alone to search my soul
to see if there is good in this heart with a hole
I had no control when I lived out there
my life became a nightmare
there is no love in isolation
all you have is your imagination
I live in a world created on my own
contempt for the outside keeps me alone
Isolation is for me
the only way to be free
Isolation - is liberation
when desperation is what you feel
Isolation - is liberation
when desolation is what you feel
Isolate - myself
free - myself
isolate - myself
be - myself.
Inner scars
That never heal
Another day
In this solitude
This resistance
Turned prison cell
Your life is slowly fading
Your life is built upon a lie
Existence now forgotten
Memories of isolation
Isolation
The anxiety's convincing
You'll end your tribulations
Panic has taken over
The anxiety's convincing
You'll end your tribulations
Panic has taken over
The fear sinks in a crushing hold
(The fear sinks in a crushing hold)
Keep the outside from closing in
(Keep the outside from closing in)
Slowly dying
Your life is slowly fading
Your life is built upon a lie
Existence now forgotten
Memories of isolation
Isolation
-Solo-
Your life is slowly fading
Your life is built upon a lie
Existence now forgotten
Memories of isolation
Isolation
The fear sinks in a crushing hold
(The fear sinks in a crushing hold)
Keep the outside from closing in
(Keep the outside from closing in)
Slowly dying
Your life is slowly fading
Your life is built upon a lie
Existence now forgotten
Memories of isolation
Isolation
The anxiety's convincing
You'll end your tribulations
Panic has taken over
The anxiety's convincing
You'll end your tribulations
Do you know how it feels to be standing
Alone, with the weight of the world
Pressing down on you hard.
On chance to choke the pain gained,
By the things that you say, by
The games that you play.
From this moment I stand amazed, the
Question still remains. How you choose
To behave, what you make of your lifetime.
Let those feelings leave, I know that life's
Been tough. Be aware of what you've got.
Stay, stay with me, take me home
Don't let me go. Stay, stay here with
Me, where our souls will be free.
Lay down your principles and pray to your
God of emptiness, like a last stroke of
Consciousness, an attempt to be brave
And to reach expectations.
Your time has come, cherish all your loved
Ones in this bleak hour. Cause I know
They'll be leaving you one by one.
When the darkest clouds gone by
ISOLATION
It's the end
Of another year
End of
Another night
It's the end of another beautiful day
Oh won't you
Come and visit me
What do you say?
Isolation
Isolation
It's my place of hibernation
Isolation
I am human
Believe it or not
Nothing in the closet
What you see is what I've got
Isolation
Isolation
Is my place of hibernation
Isolation
Drinking whisky all night long
Nothing came at first
And then along came
My song
Isolation
Isolation
It's my place of hibernation
End of another year
It's the end of a beautiful day
End of another night
That's right!
Isolation
Isolation
Isolation
Medication
Sedation
Isolation
Human?
Are you human for my
Experiments?
Are you normal?
Is your brain right
(Brain right?)
Medication
Isolation
Isolation
Medication
Isolation
The body feels cold
The body is blue
It could be me
I'd rather it was you
Isolation
Manyana, Manyana
Isolation
Sitting in a box
Made of wood
It feels nice
It feels good
Isolation
The best news I've ever heard was when you said you wouldn't leave
Because I know the distance would tear us apart.
And all the things you said,
Wouldn't mean a thing if you weren't here with me.
So as you turn your back to me,
I just want to let you know that I could never do this to you.
This is where our roads divide and they split in two,
And I will never see you again.
But I respect your choice.
The familiar pain sets in again,
But I can't let this drag me down.
It's things like this that made me who I am today.
It's thing like this that helped to shape/make me who I am today,
It's every hardship that I've faced.
And I've lost hope in myself,
But I just want you to know:
As everyday goes by,
Floating endlessly through the wavering radiance
to a sun so long forgotten, I need the warmth.
As I wait to find Babylon, I dream to reach out,
to oscillate and find my God or this fleeting
notion of peace. It wont be long until we can
regain whats left of ourselves. Hand in hand, we
can be set free from the chains that have bound us
(John Lennon)
[Originally by John Lennon]
People say we got it made don't they know we're so afraid
We're afraid to be alone, everbody got to have a home
Isolation
Just a boy and a little girl
Trying to change the whole wide world
Isolation
All the world is a little town
Everybody trying to put us down
Isolation
I don't expect you to understand
After you caused so much pain
But the again you're not to blame
Your just a human, a victim of the insane
We're afrain of everyone, afraid of the sun
Isolation
The Sun will never disappear
But the world my not have many years
The law of the material world
It goes like this
Everything is temporary-all life
It comes into being
Stays for some time
Produces some by-products
Dwindles and vanishes
What's the deal
Why are we here
Trapped inside this body
This body carries the soul
That's right-it's just a shell
So many think we are this body
But we're not
It's what we are inside that counts
Why are we proud
Now I know why I cannot resist
In tune with nature's way
I walked a crooked path alone
I thought I could get there on my own
What am I to condone
This body I don't even own
People want to know your occupation
Where'd you get your education
Don't wanna meet the soul within
Good looks and wealth a necessity
You think it's love but it's a smoke screen
When good looks fade
Divorce lawyers bring pain
Isolation
Help me realize I cannot regret
It is hard to be good and it is hard to be bad It is hard to be something it is hard to be sad It is hard to realize it is hard to understand how he is feeling now One year end of the life one year you must be tough One year terrible dream one year shit is here In the rain and in the mud I will leave my soul After the prison people are happy but different
Say what you got to say After the darkness here comes the day
I'm sitting here and the daze disapear
Slowly
Taken back into the real world
Just a moment ago everything seemed so nice,
Illusion of another world
But now I want back, tell me why
Tell me why
Isolation [4X]
Still sitting here, staring at the wall
All I want is being back in my own world
My second self left me alone left me alone
Can't stand the pain, need another chance,
Chance to escape
Isolation [4X]
Pressed into lifeless shapes
Suffer from vertigo
Confronted with a brutal world we grow
Dispersal - disorder
Just chopped in bits
Dissection - into pieces
That will never fit - again
Betrayed and agonized
Until the day you die
But your self-made prison is a lie
Dispersal - disorder
Just chopped in bits
Dissection - into pieces
That will never fit - again
We are the travellers of eternity
We lost our way, we walk alone
We are creators of our destiny
In isolation we shall drown
There is no common ground
No union, no alliance
Too many try to be the first in line
Dispersal
Disorder
Dissection
Isolation
We are all witness to insanity
The plague is spread across the land
We are observers of catastrophes
I'm stranded here in a dream and there's no ticket back
I feel a cold wind blowin', my future looks black
You left me here and you've taken all my yesterdays
I guess to stand alone is the price that I pay
Now look what you've done to me
Because we just disagree
I'm out here alone and it's you that I'm waiting for
Can't go livin' without you, girl
It doesn't matter what you say or do, girl
Can't go livin' without you, girl
Isolation
I close my eyes and you're dancin' in the moonlight
with me
I try to touch you, but you, you had to get free
I turned around and you're nowhere left in sight
I'm just a lone survivor, you know it ain't right
Now look what you've done to me
Because we just disagree
I'm out here alone and it's you that I'm waiting for
Can't go livin' without you, girl
You know that I'll be waiting here for you, girl
Can't go livin' without you, girl
Isolation
I remember holding you just yesterday
But you're memory is all that I have today
We were talking 'bout promises we once had made
But you never came back
Why'd you run away
(You ran away)
Can't go livin' without you, girl
It doesn't matter what you say or do
Can't go livin' without you, girl
Isolation
Girl, I'm so isolated
Can't go livin' without you, girl, oh
Girl, you know I'm gonna wait for you
Can't go livin' without you, girl
One, two, one, two, three, go!
Verse 1
Stop there,
Time's up,
Must shut the fuck up!
Might just rip through,
Kill you one shot!
Now there's,
No speech!
This word
Might be your last, I'll break you down bitch!
Chorus
Don't fight the fear within you,
Fight it within your mind,
Rip free the light that binds you,
See through the fear that has left you inside!
Verse 2
These hands, your blood,
I'll feel your pulse rip through the inner side of me!
Can't scream,
Can't take!
The hate away,
I'll drain the blood my soul can't take!
I'l break you down bitch!
Chorus
Don't fight the fear within you,
Fight it within your mind,
Rip free the light that binds you,
See through the fear that has left you inside!
(Left you inside) x3
Chorus
Don't fight the fear within you,
Fight it within your mind,
Rip free the light that binds you,
See through the fear that has left you inside!
Don't fight the fear within you,
Fight it within your mind,
Rip free the light that binds you,
I’m so cold…..
All of these years I’ve been gathering
Building a wall around me
To shroud me
But it keeps me from healing
This ball of frustration
Is stealing my soul away from me
Now I’m cold inside
Can anything get me out
Of this isolation I’m in
What is my pain about
Where did my troubles begin
I’m so cold…..
I can’t express any feelings for anyone
How do I repress my demons as hard as I try
I can’t figure out how to control
All the anger inside that’s destroying my life
Can anything get me out
Of this isolation I’m in
What is my pain about
Where did my troubles begin
Somebody tell me
Why I feel like there is no fucking way
To handle this and I’m lost now
I’m so cold
I’m so cold
And I’m lost now
I’m so cold
I’m so cold
Can anything get me out
Of this isolation I’m in
What is my pain about
Where did my troubles begin
I can’t express any feelings for anyone
How do I repress my demons as hard as I try
I can’t figure out how to control
All the anger inside that’s destroying my life
Can anything get me out
Of this isolation I’m in
What is my pain about
Where did my troubles
Begin…..
I cannot stand this deafening silence
My feeling subside for my spirit has died and I’m
Trapped in this darkness
All the things I'll never seeAll the things I'll never be
All there is that's left for me
Is here in this eternity
Of isolation
The cavalcade, the jamboree
Of life I thought was meant for me
I never dreamed that it would be
Replaced by this eternity
Of isolation.
All the things I'll never see
All the things I'll never be
All my hopes are memory
All there is that's left for me
I know of a place
Not far from here
Where the world fades away
And everything is silent
A place of surreal beauty
I often go there
And I isolate myself
from the world
In isolation
Bathed in emptiness
Quiet contemplation
Utter hopelessness
In isolation
So intoxicating
My inspiration
Is ever fading
Solitude, my cunning friend
I have nothing
There is no hope, no despair
Only quiet reflection
The bleak, baleful designs
That I fashion
May someday come to pass
Should I have my way
In isolation
Bathed in emptiness
Quiet contemplation
Utter hopelessness
In isolation
So intoxicating
My inspiration
Is ever fading
The weight of the world
Crashes down
It brings me...
It brings me down
I have drifted
so far away
From everything
From everyone
In quiet solitude
I will fade away
I won't look back (no)
I won't look back
Maybe someday
You will understand
Please forgive me (oh)
I try to see myself in a different light
Isolation
Storms, they used to move me
Winds, they used to change me
In this state I can take what I hate
Isolation
I used to tell myself that it wasn’t right
Isolation
Storms, they used to move me
Winds, they used to change me
In this state I can take what I hate
Isolation
Living
Falling
Make your move
Isolate
Storms, they used to move me
Winds, they used to change me
In this state I can take what I hate
I satnd alone
We're still running
Over time and far away
We've lost our days
The days of grace and misery
I don't need anyone
To find out we're sinking to hell
Black flames on everyone
Can't you see whre you're going?
Too many things are changing
And people never change
Can i trust you anymore?
Well no
We're still running
Over time and far away
We've lost our days
The days of grace and misery
Turned into ashes
Memories are faded away
So i stand alone
Cause i don't care anymore
Everything, it's so quiet here
Seasons last, more than thousand years
Suddenly my vision is clear,
consciousness into clarity
I can hear echoes from the sea
overwhelmed by tranquility
Radiance unfolds gradually,
every wound now begins to heal
Take on my burden, shake of my head
Chained by what I understand, won't let me grow
New found sight opens up for each
step into similarity
Void is all coming into reach,
mistakable familiarity
Take on my burden, shake of my head
Chained by what I understand, won't let me grow
Lay down my burden, take all my years away
Release me within emptiness and make me whole
There is a desire, there's a need of finding faith,
I decide by painting it all in grey
Inner transformation turns a weakness to a strength,
through the times the spirit will remain
Tethered by restrictions of the way to be aware,
all is gone the hindrance will fade away
Fundamentals separate transcending into where
time that flows is neither night nor day
Every piece that we retrieve from covering our eyes,
dawns on us we cannot leave with everything inside
I will reach my hand and try to open up the sky,
In the clear of the day every evening he calls
for a love from above carefully
watch for a reason mistaking devotion and love
isolation, isolation, isolation, isolation
surrender to self preservation and brothers
who care for themselves as long as it touches perfection
a person is like everything else
isolation, isolation, isolation, isolation
mother I tried to believe me I'm doing the best I can
I'm ashamed of the things I've been put through
I'm ashamed of the person I am
isolation, isolation, isolation, isolation
but if you could just see the beauty
whose face I could never describe
who's playing the game to distraction
isn't my heart for a prize?
She naked she hopeful
These pillows of soul now keep going
She? s going?
To find her way
Any answer to these guiding lights
To you
Tonight I can? t love
For u are the only one
For u are my only one
She aint anchored by love
She treats me like
Diseased sights for the young
No one
She wakes me she goes
He won? t sleep
And now wait for the leaves
When can u grow?
When can u breath
For u are the only one
A blinding white light, like a cold white sun in the night
But there's nothing at all that's divine about the discharge of rounds
And as you crawl through the maelstrom of war
Whatever you'll endure, you'll endure alone
Falling deep into the abyss, with survival rate more hit than miss
Wailing through the swamps, assessing every sound
Judging the threat of the demons, airborne and on ground
But one must believe, one surely must conceive
Whatever you'll endure, you'll endure alone
Because in the end, there's no-one but you
Your comrades in arms have no power to do
A thing for your plight, or a thing for your life
On your trip to hell, you'll be all alone, this is the essence of total isolation
Making resolves on your final breath, suddenly faced with your last conquest
Will yourself to live you give it your best, now cradled in the arms of death
Falling deep into the abyss, some rounds graze, while others pierce
