Go!
A rush of blood To my head leaves me winded and wanting To feel the weakness in my body Beaten and crushed like my soul I walked the streets flirting death But I never kissed back I'm so lucky so cursed so fucked up But that's the way that it goes It's the ebb and the flow I wish that I could give you my time Give you my time Seems that doomsday has come early this year The last angel has gone I can't remember the last time I cried The last angel has gone home The memories stacking up And they pull at my guts What do I have to do to end it The better days hacked away Leaving me only pain This regret is never ending But in the blink of an eye This life passes you by I wish that I could give you my time Give you my time Seems that doomsday has come early this year The last angel has gone I can't remember the last time I cried The last angel has gone home I can't remember I can't remember I can't remember the last time I cried Seems that doomsday has come early this year The last angel has gone I can't remember the last time I cried The last angel has gone home 02. Honor
Resolute a stance of defiance
Always teetering on the brink Nothing can hold you back when When you're not holding back a thing Open arms we embrace tomorrow Closed fists, tarnishing today We're not afraid to open our mouths and scream We believe in what we say Like a whisper to the dusk An oath against the shadows Denying the dark FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'til the break of dawn Like a prayer unto the dawn In arms against the shadows Destroying the dark FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'til the break of dawn Covered in sweat and blood Yet still our heads held high Actions have consequences When you life for foolish pride Been careful not to lose ourselves Stand together one passion, one hate We believe in a better tomorrow We believe in what we say Like a whisper to the dusk An oath against the shadows Denying the dark FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'til the break of dawn Like a prayer unto the dawn In arms against the shadows Destroying the dark FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'til the break of dawn FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'til the break of dawn We'll fight out battles we'll wage our wars Settle the scores with honor and blood We'll wear our scars like medals of hope Like medals of hope Like medals of hope We'll fight out battles we'll wage our wars Settle the scores with honor and blood We'll wear our scars like medals of hope Like medals of hope Like medals of hope Like a whisper to the dusk An oath against the shadows Denying the dark FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'til the break of dawn Like a prayer unto the dawn In arms against the shadows Destroying the dark (whisper to the dusk) In arms against the shadows Destroying the dark (whisper to the dusk) In arms against the shadows Destroying the dark (whisper to the dusk ) FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'til the break of dawn FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'til the break of dawn FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'til the break of dawn FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'til the break of dawn 03. Falling Down
You're always looking back
Runnin' from the past. You're always sweating me about the next big heart attack You're lookin' over your shoulder starin' down the path (I'm fallin' down) Fallin' down Fallin' down It's in your head All the voices mistaken Shake it off shake it off We're all dyin' in the end It's in your head All the voices mistaken Shake it off shake it off We're all dyin' in the end I terrorize me images so horrible, So horrible To clear my thoughts I drill a hole into my skull Clean up my brains and sweep them underneath the rug I need them more than I needed any other drug I'm fallin' down Fallin' down Fallin' down It's in your head All the voices mistaken Shake it off shake it off We're all dyin' in the end It's in your head All the voices mistaken Shake it off shake it off We're all dyin' in the end Hey, hey, hey Come on [Solo] I'm fallin' down Fallin' down Fallin' down It's in your head All the voices mistaken Shake it off shake it off We're all dyin' in the end It's in your head All the voices mistaken Shake it off shake it off We're all dyin' in the end 04. Becoming the Bull
Come on!!!
Grab the bull by the horns the old adage goes Nobody tells you where to go from here Seems like fates pulling you Decisions have to be made The the best path is the hardest earned Back and forth the struggle consumes us all Trying to keep a level head In the most unsettling of times Today I'll become the bull There is so much to stake I stumble, I lose my place Pride and arrogance surrounded by sin Destiny takes its hold Fight it or let it go But I choose how the day will end Back and forth the struggle consumes us all Trying to keep a level head In the most unsettling of times Today I'll become the bull Today I'll become the bull This walk can get lonely I lose myself inside my head No one can touch you When you're outside staring in Remove myself from this rat race Back and forth the struggle consumes us all Trying to keep a level head In the most unsettling of times Today I'll become the bull Today I'll become the bull Today I'll become the bull Today I'll become the bull Today I'll become the bull 05. When Two Are One
Bang!
Explosions in my head that just won't quit A train has crashed into the wall around my heart And left the old me dead, obliterated Stop! My breathing in the night when you're not there The silence ringing through my ears And all I want to do is hear your voice But you're not there Drawn together Painter's brush stoke Sleight of hand we We won't go up in smoke Fates colliding Love undying Like the rising tide Beating hearts grow but never die To simplify I'll stand by your side Close my eyes Hope will never die Like the rising tide Beating hearts grow but never die To simplify I'll stand by your side Close my eyes Hope will never die [Solo] Go! And take away the pain of being me Soothe my soul, caress my heart And end my fear, all my bad memories Eradicated Ring! Like gunshots herd against the silent night My love is louder than these words. They're stronger than the rest, unstoppable Unstoppable Drawn together Painter's brush stoke Sleight of hand we We won't go up in smoke Fates colliding Love undying Like the rising tide Beating hearts grow but never die To simplify I'll stand by your side Close my eyes Hope will never die Like the rising tide Beating hearts grow but never die To simplify I'll stand by your side Close my eyes Hope will never die Will never die DIE...... Drawn together Painter's brush stoke Sleight of hand we We won't go up in smoke Fates colliding Love undying Like the rising tide Beating hearts grow but never die To simplify I'll stand by your side Close my eyes Hope will never die Like the rising tide Beating hearts grow but never die To simplify I'll stand by your side Close my eyes Hope will never die Will never die DIE...... 06. Lose It
Standing on the edge
Battle in my head I'm dying to know I'm dying to know If I take this leap to fail or succeed I'm dying to know I'm dying to know This is it I'm shaking My body's aching I lose my hold I will let go This is it, I'm falling My wings need to grow I lose my hold I will let go There's so many roads Pitfalls filled with doubt I'm dying to know I'm dying to know Grabbing what I need Grip until it bleeds I'm dying to know I'm dying to know This is it I'm shaking My body's aching I lose my hold I will let go This is it, I'm falling My wings need to grow I lose my hold I will let go If I If I take this, this leap Will I be broken? I'm dying to know This is it I'm shaking My body's aching I lose my hold I will let go This is it, I'm falling My wings need to grow I lose my hold I will let go I will let go I will let go! 07. No One Cares
(I'm so tired)
All riled up, I can taste the winter I would shut up, if I thought that it mattere. That's what it feels like When you're stitched into the skin I feel stuck, and no one thinks something's missing Something's missing No one cares, no one listens, Screaming words that you fake hearin'. No one cares, no one listens anymore (No one listens anymore) My eyes burn as I bury how I'm feelin' Close my eyes it's my life that I've been stealing If it's all right, why do I feel a sense of longing? I had it all, and yet I thought that something's missin' Something's missing No one cares, no one listens, Screaming words that you fake hearin'. No one cares, no one listens anymore No one cares, no one listens, Screaming words that you fake hearin'. No one cares, no one listens anymore So paranoid I've been hiding from the sun I'm tired of being afraid of everything and everyone Oh, so tired No one cares, no one listens, Screaming words that you fake hearin'. No one cares, no one listens anymore No one cares, no one listens, Screaming words that you fake hearin'. No one cares, no one listens anymore No one cares, no one listens, Screaming words that you fake hearin'. No one cares, no one listens anymore 08. Can't Happen Here
Chariots clashed in the dead of night
Subversiveness clouds the clearest of minds Blink of an eye we're collateralized Raised up in arms never knowing why We get what we take when we take nothing Pull the helmet from your eyes We're erased and betrayed by mistakes Does your god know my god? This is how the world will end And it begs the questions When bullets cloud the sky Taking away the pain of Thinking for ourselves Demons beat down They beat down our doors And it begs the question Could this scene be real Stealing away our children Taking away our dreams! We get what we take when we take nothing Pull the helmet from your eyes We're erased and betrayed by mistakes Does your god know my god? This is how the world will end Does your god know my god? This is how the world will end [Solo] We get what we take when we take nothing Pull the helmet from your eyes We're erased and betrayed by mistakes Does your god know my god? This is how the world will end Does your god know my god? This is how the world will end Does your god know my god? This is how the world will end Does your god know my god? This is how the world will end 09. Slow Burn
It begins with a dark glowing ember
Something black burning it's way out of me Searing the flesh Pain is the only thing I feel Scars all I see Oh no the fire's burning my insides again What can I do to silence my desire tonight? Flames consuming reason leaving only ashes left You will catch me for regretting my decision I can't keep telling myself What I want to hear I can't just close my eyes I know that it's killing me And it's poisoning the best in me But I say, I don't want to believe What I see, I don't want to believe So let me tell you more (tell you more) About the lies I lead That is how I choose to douce the flames in gasoline Broken teeth replace the blackout memories in my head Wreckage from the past haunts me, shake me to the bone I know it's over but I can't go home tonight But after this I feel as empty as the night before Feel the pain and yet I'm still begging for more Masochistic, nihilistic, urging backward thought My life's a mess and I can't find a way to fix it I can't keep telling myself What I want to hear I can't just close my eyes (My eyes, my eyes, my fucking eyes) I know that it's killing me And it's poisoning the best in me What I see, I don't want to believe So let me tell you more (tell you more) About the lies I lead Calling, calling out The darkest reaches of my soul Are riddled with self-doubt Crawling, crawling out My will to fight will more than suffice When others would lay down It's only as dark as you make it I know that it's killing me And it's poisoning the best in me What I see, I don't want to believe So let me tell you more (tell you more) About the lies I lead 10. Blow

Lead Sails (And A Paper Anchor)
Marching alone, like a good soldier does
I'm setting sail, with anchors holding me down Pack up my bags, stow them away I'm bidding farewell to all that is safe Will I come up for air, come up for air After awhile the current is calling me Lulling me, waving goodbye I'm out here alone, oh God can you save me now? Sinking my heart turns to stone Withering away, a shrinking violet dies So full of life, these lights have dried me out Into the sea, I needed a drink I never thought this would consume me whole Will I come up for air, come up for air After awhile the current is calling me Lulling me, waving goodbye I'm out here alone, oh God can you save me now? Sinking my heart turns to stone (I turn to stone) Sinking my heart turns to stone Save me, take me home Over and over again Save me, take me home Wishing that this all would end Save me, take me home Over and over again Save me, take me home Wishing that this all would end After awhile the current is calling me Lulling me, waving goodbye I'm out here alone, oh God can you save me now? Sinking my heart turns to stone After awhile the current is calling me Lulling me, waving goodbye I'm out here alone, oh God can you save me now? Sinking my heart turns to stone Sinking my heart turns to stone Save me take me home When I come up for air Save me take me home When I come up for air Save me take me home Over and over again Save me take me home Wishing that all this would end |
