lines of reason are crossed, they fall powerless
a never-ending, self-exposed transparency
give them wars to fight
forgiveness is worth the cost
one last failure of the gods
in path of days ending, before our time is done
the parasites are all ascending
they know what will become
distant the memories, lasting the crimes
this world stands before us
reminding us of loss, an absence of cause
in path of days ending we stand only for ourselves
time will not fix what time has brought
faith will not mend what faith has wrought
time will not fix what time has burned
faith will not heal what faith has lost
we’re losing the fight for balance
with hearts of violence
silence the remorse

Djent is a tired genre and why this is exactly, I'm unsure of. It does, however, still have its moments -- Astraeus, for example. Perhaps it's an obsession with creating interesting riffs and compelling song structures, whereas other djent bands focus on, 'how heavy can we get'. Mirrors boasts a sort of stream of consciences element, exploring a theme and moving on seamlessly with many songs blending into the next.
I also greatly appreciate the inclusion of an instrumental version.
Be Djentle.
