01. As It Begins

[Instrumental]

02. When The World Becomes Undone

[Chorus 1]
When your children close their eyes
They will dream of a paradise
When their tears turn into blood
When the world becomes undone
When the world becomes undone
When your world becomes undone
When your world becomes undone, yeah

[Chorus 2]
When your love has fallen apart
You will have deflated heart
When their dreams turn into blood
When the world becomes undone
When the world becomes undone

[Post-Chorus 1]
I've got this funny feeling that God is dead
I've got this funny feeling that he don't care

[Post-Chorus 2]
The world is disappearing from her eyes
The world is disappearing from her eyes

[Chorus 3]
When your children clear their eyes
They will know of our demise
And when the tears turn into blood
When the world becomes undone
When the world becomes undone

[Post-Chorus 1]
I've got this funny feeling that God is dead
I've got this funny feeling that he don't care
I've got this funny feeling that God is dead
I've got this funny feeling that he don't care

[Bridge]
What you do today, you bring tomorrow
Nothing is enough to match your sorrow
Watch your world slowly burn in flames
Nothing is left, man is the blame
What you do today, you bring tomorrow
Nothing is enough to match your sorrow
Watch your world slowly burn in flames
Nothing is left, we're all the blame

[Post-Chorus 2]
The world is disappearing from her eyes
The world is disappearing

[Outro]
When your children close their eyes
They will dream of a paradise
When the tears turn into blood
When the world becomes undone

03. Love The Ones You Hate

[Verse 1]
Every time you said you loved me, you loved yourself
Every time you said you cared, you loved yourself

[Chorus]
Love the ones you love to hate
Dancing devils in your parade
We all make mistakes
And you will be fine

[Verse 2]
You dance in a circle with the words that you say
You wanna take a, take a chance with all the lies you say

[Chorus]
Love the ones you love to hate
Dancing devils in your parade
We all make mistakes
And you will be fine

[Bridge]
All the times we sat at the table
You could've tried to understand me
All the pain this father has been through
You could've tried to understand me
All the times we sat at the table
You could've tried to understand me
All the pain this father has been through
You could've tried to understand me

[Chorus]
Love the ones you love to hate
Dancing devils in your parade
We all make mistakes
And you will be fine
Love the ones you love to hate
Dancing devils in your parade
We all make mistakes
And you will be fine
Love the ones you love to hate
Love the ones you love to hate
Love the ones you love to hate
You will be fine
And you will be fine
And you will be fine
And you will be fine
You will be fine

04. Fell In My Hole

[Intro]
I fell inside my hole again

[Verse]
I tried to figure out what's wrong with me
I felt like falling in the abyss in my mind
How do I figure out this mess that's me?
How did I end up in this hole inside of me?
I felt I knew what's going on with me
How could I not see I became inverted?
How do I find a way out of here now?
Emotions crushing everything inside of me

[Chorus]
I fell inside my hole
Where I lay is black and cold
Feel your body fall apart
I'm never getting out of my black hole

[Bridge]
(Out of my black hole
Never getting out
Out of my black hole
Never getting out of here
I know I will figure it out
I know I will find a way out
I know I will figure out
I know I will find a way out
I know I will
I know I will
I know I will)

[Chorus]
I fell inside my hole
Where I lay is black and cold
Feel your body fall apart
I'm never getting out of my black hole
I fell inside my hole
Where I lay is black and cold
Feel your body fall apart
I'm never getting out of my black hole

[Outro]
I'm never getting out of my black hole
I'm never getting out of my black hole
I'm never getting out of my black hole
I'm never getting out of my black hole

05. Succumbing To The Event Horizon

[Instrumental]

06. Vultures

[Verse 1]
They come around when you are on your knees
Surrounding one by one, taking what you need
Your mouth is dry as you lay down
Begging for those vultures to set you free
Vultures pick your bones, pick them so clean
Bathing in your tears of misery for years
They take you for everything you have
Consuming you 'til there's nothing of you left

[Refrain]
Only God knows what's wrong with me

[Verse 2]
They show up when you stink and rot
Taking everything that's precious to your heart
When you have been stripped down
Vultures fly away, thorns in your crown

[Refrain]
Only God knows what's wrong
Only God knows what's wrong with me
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
Vultures circle all around you
They come to take your soul across the river

[Bridge]
They only come around when things are wrong
They only come around when you got what they want

[Refrain]
Only God knows what's wrong
Only God knows what's wrong with me
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
Vultures circle all around you
They come to take your soul across the river
Vultures circle all around you
They come to take your soul across the river
Vultures circle all around you
They come to take your soul across the river

07. End Of Days

[Verse 1]
As I pick the scabs (I'm watching the pus bleed out)
And the world has lost its shame

[Chorus]
Every time I see a shadow on the sun (On the sun)
You can see that the world has come undone (It's come undone, yeah)
And with the living and the dead we pray (Dead we pray)
It's pretty clear it's the end of days (End of days)

[Verse 2]
You invade me like a parasite (He's under your skin)
Possess my nightmares in my life (Possessing me)
He's feeding you with the poison that infects you
He turns the light to dark and never tells you
He's the bullet in the gun that makes the hole in your head

[Chorus]
Every time I see a shadow on the sun (On the sun)
You can see that the world has come undone (It's come undone, yeah)
And with the living and the dead we pray (Dead we pray)
It's pretty clear it's the end of days (End of days)
Every time I see a shadow on the sun (On the sun)
You can see that the world has come undone (It's come undone, yeah)
And with the living and the dead we pray (Dead we pray)
It's pretty clear it's the end of days

[Bridge]
And all that you believed in is gone forever
And all that you loved is gone forever
And all that you believed in is gone forever
And all that you loved is dead

[Chorus]
Every time I see a shadow on the sun (On the sun)
You can see that the world has come undone (It's come undone, yeah)
And with the living and the dead we pray (Dead we pray)
It's pretty clear it's the end of days (End of days)
Every time I see a shadow on the sun (On the sun)
You can see that the world has come undone (It's come undone, yeah)
And with the living and the dead we pray (Dead we pray)
It's pretty clear it's the end of days (End of days)
Every time I see a shadow on the sun (On the sun)
You can see that the world has come undone (It's come undone, yeah)
And with the living and the dead we pray (Dead we pray)
It's pretty clear it's the end of days

08. The Woods

[Instrumental]

09. We All Break Down

[Verse 1]
See the children play
On a sunny day
They all look beautiful
I can't say the same

[Chorus]
We all fall down sometimes and we can't get up
We all break down sometimes and we just give up

[Verse 2]
See the old man pray
For a better day
He looks sad and lonely
I can say the same

[Chorus]
We all fall down sometimes and we can't get up
We all break down sometimes and we just give up

[Post-Chorus]
Every time I see the news
Someone is dying for religious views
And what have we become?
Every time I look at you
I see the tears are killing you
And what have we become?

[Bridge]
The world is breaking down
(We all break down)
The world is breaking down
The world is breaking down
(We all break down)
The world is breaking down

[Post-Chorus]
Every time I see the news
Someone is dying for religious views
And what have we become? (What have we become?)
Every time I look at you
I see the tears are killing you
And what have we become? (What have we become?)
Every time I see the news
Someone is dying for religious views
And what have we become? (What have we become?)
Every time I look at you
I see the tears are killing you
And what have we become? Yeah

10. Lay With The Wicked

Behind a black veil with all her snakes
The smell of candles permeates
She looked at me and said a curse
Then it all took a turn for the worst

See the witches sing and dance
Rituals put me in a trance
Seeing stars and now it's black
She sent my soul to burn with the damned

Voodoo woman put a spell on me
She stabs her dolls and buries them six feet deep
Throwing flowers and dancing with the dead
She takes my soul and I lay with the wicked

Voodoo woman put a spell on me
She stabs her dolls and buries them six feet deep
Throwing flowers and dancing with the dead
She takes my soul and I lay with the wicked
And I lay with the wicked
And I lay with the wicked
And I lay with the wicked
And I lay with the wicked
And you lay me down
And you lay me down
And you lay me down
And you lay me down
And you lay me down

11. Splinters

Yesterday I was hurt forever
Long ago I was scarred forever

All I know is I tried my very best
To bury all of the feelings inside of me

Every splinter in my back is a tragedy
Every splinter tells me the truth, no apologies

I see the sun and I say, "Try to make it one more day"
You try to make all the pain, try to make it go away
I see the sun and I say, "Try to make it one more day"
You try to make all the pain, try to make it go away

Day in and day out, we fight it, we fight it out
We try to get to something better

Every splinter in my back is a tragedy
Every splinter tells me the truth, no apologies
Every splinter in my back is a tragedy
Every splinter tells me the truth, no apologies

12. Dreams Of The End

Bloodshot eyes
Stressed out mind
Driving myself insane
Haunting dreams taunting me
Slicing 'til I bleed

Tossing and turning with worries churning
The fear of losing yourself
Try not to fall inside your hole
The fear of losing your soul

When I just look at myself in the mirror
I see someone breaking down
When you watch your family through their struggles
No one understands

Shortness of breath, lost consciousness
Nightmares lay me to rest
Self-medicate before it's too late
The dreams come to an end

Why don't you look at yourself in the mirror?
And see yourself breaking down
Every time you hope for things to get better
Dreams come to an end

Staring at the ceiling cracks falling
Motionless on my back, crying
Try to go to the light, dying

When I just look at myself in the mirror
I see someone breaking down
When you watch your family through their struggles
No one understands
Why don't you look at yourself in the mirror?
And see yourself breaking down
Every time you hope for things to get better
Dreams come to an end
When I just look at myself in the mirror
I see someone breaking down
Every time you lose someone that you love
Dreams come to an end

13. Closure

[Instrumental]
