Tracks



01. Fight for Life

Dragging me down
I try to keep myself from sinking
Without a sound I scream in silence
I stop all breathing

You fight for it and live for it, then it lets you down
Fight for life and it's all i see
Fight for life until it's through with me

Chewing me up, engulfed in madness
Searching again
Meaning in life
I keep on searching further to no end

You fight for it and live for it, then it lets you down
Fight for life and it's all i see
Fight for life until it's through with me

You fight for life then it's through with you

Holding me back
I keep on fighting, for what reason?
Torturing me, what is the purpose?
My time has ended

You fight for it and live for it, then it lets you down
Fight for life and it's all i see
Fight for life until it's through with me

02. Give It Up

You get in my space
You get in my way
I cant do nothing
Nothings wrong

Keep on pushing
Up in my face
I'm gonna leave ya
Face down in the dirt

First you said it
Dont think you get it
One more time i'll
Break you down

You came out of no where
You only got yourself to blame
I gave all the warnings
There's nothing left to offer

Give it up

I can not take it
You're bothering me
What's your problem
Just get lost

Insist on prying
Your gonna get hurt
One more word
I'll burst and I'll break your bones

I'm bleeding from my ears again
Listen to this shit I have
Bleeding from my ears again
Listen to this shit I have
Bleeding from my ears again
Bleeding from my ears

You came out of no where
You only got yourself to blame
I gave all the warnings
There's nothing left to offer

You'll get what you deserve
You'll get what you have earned
I gave all the warnings
Theres nothing left to offer

Give It Up

03. Pick Me Up

One thing looking over my shoulder
Is the thought that it won't last
I got to give it this, it's moving fast
Better make a mark before it all pass

Whoever thought that they had doubts had better think again
You cannot begin to understand aal the things I am
That's for sure
If my world falls to pieces, will you still be there to pick me up?

I got respect for the people who listen
To the people who understand
The way I am and the way I act
This is my, there's no changing that

Whoever thought that they had doubts had better think again
You cannot begin to understand aal the things I am
That's for sure
If my world falls to pieces, will you still be there to pick me up?

Pick up the pieces of me
Pick up a piece

If my world falls to pieces, will you still be there to pick me up?

04. The Last Chance

On and on you test your will
You've held on for this long
Don't want to die against your will
The choice is not your own

Every day you look at your sins
Once chance to wash them away
Every moment and everything
How precious life has become

This is the last chance
Your time is up and now you are free

Everything that you did
The memories are strong
All the lives that you touched
Embedded are my thoughts

Every day you look at your sins
Once chance to wash them away
Every moment and everything
How precious life has become

This is the last chance
Your time is up and now you are free

All your life
Had all the time
Thought you had the world
Felt this inside
Now you have died
We say goodbye to you

This is it you will be missed
And all you've done we won't forget it
Say goodbye, we say goodbye to you

This is the last chance
Your time is up and now you are free

This is it you will be missed
Say goodbye, we say goodbye to you

05. True Self

Honor - Choices that you make, reflect of whom you truly are
Courage - Rise above the masses, live your life complete and strong
Compassion - Is the power that must be used for the good of all
Loyal - To the ones in my care, standing true for what the cause

My soul has been searching, longing for something
I see my true self and I have learned well

Honesty - There are no shades of grey, only truth as it can be
Sincere - Don't need to give my word, to speak of such, is the same thing
Courtesy - There's no need to prove strength, even respect your enemies
Values - This is the code I feel, emotions without words, can speak

My soul has been searching, longing for something
I see my true self and I have learned well
My true self

Insight, intelligence, integrity, the honor that is in my soul

06. Hear Me

Sad the eyes
Distance is your best friend
At night it comes
Will they hear?

Being alone is what you want
It's the only way that you feel safe inside
The darkness that is me must try and heal

Please hear me
The pain that i feel
Happiness was nowhere to be found

Here I am
You hear nothing that i said
I showed the signs
Please hear me

Being alone is what I want
It's the only way that i feel safe inside
The darkness that is me must try and heal

Please hear me
The pain that I feel
Happiness was nowhere to be found

Please hear me
I scream out for help
Have you even heard a word of mine

07. Forever Dead

I am sickened by what I've heard
I can't believe the thing that you have done
To go this far nothing is unreal
It is a waste forever dead

This blood is on your hands
Now you're gone
You brought this upon yourself
And you will live forever, forever dead

You go and make all your choices
The path you choose, it can't and won't be won
Did you ever stop and think for a moment
That you will live forever dead

This blood is on your hands
Now you're gone
You brought this upon yourself
And you will live forever, forever dead

I'm sickened by what I've heard
I can't believe the thing that you have done
To go this far for nothing
It is a waste, forever dead

The blood is on your hands
Forver dead

Every day that goes by I think of this
We could not see the damage that was done
Another friend is lost, why is this?
It is a waste, forever dead

You brought this upon yourself
And you will live forever, forever dead

08. Let Go

Did you think you'd be alone?
Did your life turn out the wayyou wanted?
You worked your fingers to the bone
Now you stare at the four walls that own you

You must break, you must break away

All your world has turned to grey
The colour on your life has gone and left you
What once you had has gone away
Consuming are the thoughts you just won't let go

The photos that you have will fade
Is'nt that enough of a sign to show you
That everything in life will change
The hand that you have been dealt must not own you

You must break, you must break away

All your world has turned to grey
The colour on your life has gone and left you
What once you had has gone away
Consuming are the thoughts you just won't let go

09. Until It's Over

It's been a long time
I'm home again
Nothing I remember is there
Will everything come back to me again?

I towed the line, I did my time, until it's over
I gave it all, I watched you fall, until the end

Everyone I know is gone from here
Please tell me where I've been
Now, everything ?
Come back tell me again

I towed the line, I did my time, until it's over
I gave it all, I watched you fall, until the end

Now I'm left without a home, theres nothing but sorrow
And I got no place to go
Memories are gone
I'm left without a home
I'm left all alone
Where are they? Only heaven knows
My memories are gone

I towed the line, I did my time, until it's over
I gave it all, I watched you fall, until the end

10. Jaded

My life is complicated
I tried but it's too late an
Just when i think that it's ok
This place has overtaken

More and more than I'm here
It's all fake, I can't tell
I think i finally understand
How i got this way

Every day I think that I'm Jaded
More than I can admit
In every way I think that I'm jaded

To all that I have hated
I can't begin to state that
In every way that I think
My brain's activated

More and more than I'm here
It's all fake, I can't tell
I think i finally understand
How i got this way

Every day I think that I'm Jaded
More than I can admit
In every way I think that I'm jaded

There is no way that I can turn back
I see all things and it's crystal clear
Living here is war on my life
It has changed every piece of me

Every day I think that I'm Jaded
More than I can admit
In every way I think that I'm jaded

11. Threw It Away

You had your chance, it's over, no more time
This is not even over, it blows my mind
Can't understand what's in your mind
I feel this deed within me, it's all inside
I sacrificed everything, now it's my time

Throw it away, you threw it away, it's gone forever

I don't know any other way to live my life
This is all I've ever wanted amd it's mine
Can't understand your mind, I don't understand
Can't understand what's in your mind

Throw it away, you threw it away, it's gone forever

You had your chance, you're done, now it's in my grasp
He, who hesitates, is lost and now I've got the upper hand

Throw it away, you threw it away, it's gone forever

You played that hand and folded, you let it go
I stepped in and kicked the door open, you can't stop us now

Throw it away, you threw it away, it's gone forever

12. One Last Song

Take a listen to your whole world
Can you hear the screams?
All alone i wonder
How much longer, is there time for me?

One last song
I want to give this world
Before it's gone
One last song

I don't think we learned a thing
Our history repeats
Will we heed these lessons?
Slit our throats and watch us bleed
Is there time for me?

One last song
I want to give this world
Before it's gone
One last song

Why can't we? When will we?
I don't think we want to learn
We won't be fucking happy
Until we destroy it all

One last song
I want to give this world
Before it's gone
One last song
