Consider me dead if that's what you want
Gather around me, the day has come...

Straight through the threshold, the morning calls
Wasn't meant to be there, when I opened the door
You saw me begging, you saw me down on my knees
I felt defenseless, and you don't know how it feels

I have made up my mind every time
It's been dragged in the dirt
Every scar wears a thought
Leaving battles that I've loved

It's been hard, it's been fiercely infected
It's been dropped, it's been suddenly present
Cutting ways that I've walked
Earning miles through it all

I was late for the kill, but early for the slaughter
I don't care how it bleeds
I was late for the kill but stopped in to drag the waters
Turn the bitter to sleep

I do believe there's something more
Though my vision's blurred
Straight out of nowhere, with the lack of words
I've been given the time, I've been given the faith
Don't try to stop me, don't you lie to my face

I have made up my mind every time
It's been turned to prevail
Every word feeds the crown
To dictate the profound

It's been hard, it's been fiercely infected
It's been dropped, it's been suddenly present
Cutting ways that I've walked
Earning miles through it all...

Through it all...

I was late for the kill, but early for the slaughter
I don't care how it bleeds
I was late for the kill but stopped in to drag the waters
Turn the bitter to sleep

Just hear me out on this one
Cause I ain't got nothing to hide
I will wipe out this mess
And return to life


Consider me dead if that's what you want
Gather around me, the day is done...

Late for the kill...
Early for the slaughter...
Late for the kill...
Stopped in to drag the waters...

It's is just the way it starts
The way it feels
The mission will trying to find the need
What makes to another
For the way it goes
The facts to a making are turning gold
One by one they set to fall
So distinguished alarming to go through it all
Forging to something that wasn't meant
To be in the shadow of make believe

Run, down
You try to make me
Run, down
The struggle within me

I give it away and now I am so tired
There is nothing more left to find
Ill be wanting to change
Two lives worth of reckoning
It hurts to be blind
And how I've been fading lives
I've been growing to pick my side
And to let me be me
For the reckoning

It's just the way i need
To plant that seed
Will tear down for nothing
Will channel our greed
All I'm asking for is to reach the point
We're i won't dwell on resentful times

Run, down
You try to make me
Run, down
The struggle within me

Oh right!

I give it away and now I am so tired
There is nothing more left to find
Ill be wanting to change
Two lives worth of reckoning
It hurts to be blind
And how I've been fading lives
I've been growing to pick my side
And to let me be me
For the reckoning

When i see the grateful day
The hours in me to from the start to the threshold
It'll be the greatest slay
The force i will turn
Will shift to burn
I'm holding on
And you'll stick with that
Releasing the kill
Replacing courage by will
It will be the sweetest relief
The struggle may fade
And the air i would breathe

I give it away and now I am so tired
There is nothing more left to find
Ill be wanting to change
Two lives worth of reckoning
It hurts to be blind
And how I've been fading lives
I've been growing to pick my side
And to let me be me
For the reckoning

Watch me now...

Gave in for the moment
A lifetime of thrills
Paid up to deserve it
Made up with my pills

Now will you ever learn
And make it all just turn

An ironic pattern
A foolish will
A sweet reputation
A passion to kill

Falling down again
And feel the core getting chilled

How it lies, a twisted device
Giving you up ten times
Stop the search and you will find

And dismantle the thrill

Hunting for closure
But the story goes on
A cancer that bleeds...
Won't leave till your done

Like streams of broken glass
Passing through your veins

Obsessed with obsession
Corroded from guilt
Such a drag of progression
The tears getting spilled

Now will you ever learn
And make it all just turn

How it lies, a twisted device
Giving you up ten times
Stop the search and you will find

How it lies, a twisted device
Filling you up to deny
Stop the search and you will find

I'm playing alone and will master
Talking to myself and will find out
How to retain ever after
The pain, the sound, the bottomless game
I was taught



How it lies, a twisted device
Giving you up ten times
Stop the search and you will find

How it lies, a twisted device
Filling you up to deny
Stop the search and you will find

And dismantle the thrill...

From the darkest river, comes the darkest heart
Never to be one with all I know

So bitter to the core, won't you fix your grudging soul
Forgiving, yet unable to see what you have done

Embraced by the treasury...
The mind's in captivity...
I'm not your enemy...
Forced mind activity...

Now is it so damn hard
Don't tell me what I don't deserve
Coating the words, crushing the urge
To be able to feel something more

Now where do we go...

Deliverance is mine
Me, myself and the hands of time
Deliverance is mine
And you're way out of line

Deliverance is mine
Me, myself and the hands of time
Deliverance is mine...

Now let me run my own fucking show...

Make up with your spitefulness
Drain yourself from all the guilt
Become all of what you preach
Before you spill all your guts

Embraced by the treasury...
The mind's in captivity...
I'm not your enemy...
Transporting all the guilt
Forced mind activity...
Ignoring what was built

Now where do we go...

Deliverance is mine
Me, myself and the hands of time
Deliverance is mine
And you're way out of line

Deliverance is mine
Me, myself and the hands of time
Deliverance is mine...

Time to live through yourself
Time to kill that golden parasite
Respect your own self
Stop intoxicating your beliefs


Now where do we go...

Deliverance is mine
Me, myself and the hands of time
Deliverance is mine
And you're way out of line

Deliverance is mine
Me, myself and the hands of time
Deliverance is mine...

Live through yourself...

Let me tell you about a soul who loves disaster
The night comes clean and then he dreams of going faster
He deals with angels one on one and gets his hopes up
It runs so deep, it runs so deep...

Changes...
Won't you tell me why it's changing...
It breaks my heart each time
Changes...
Won't you tell me why it's changing...
It breaks my heart each time when it dies...

The desire we will fight
Is tearing through my veins
We're exploiting our fears
Bringing fire to tears, I am lost

He fights the anguish and he overcomes the madness
See angels fall and now the demons are his masters
With broken heart he turns away from all the sadness
It runs so deep, it runs so deep...

Changes...
Won't you tell me why it's changing...
It breaks my heart each time

Changes...
Won't you tell me why it's changing...
It breaks my heart each time...
When it dies...

The desire we will fight
It's burning in my veins
We're exploiting our fears
Bringing fire to tears, I am lost

Turn your back on me...
Does it have to be?

Turn your back on me, like the ones I've lost, opened up my insanity
Does it have to be, such an endless story that keeps on breaking me

I'm gonna reach out, I'm gonna take back what I once had
It's like I blacked out, no more deceit, no more regrets


Changes...
Won't you tell me why it's changing...
It breaks my heart each time

Changes...
Won't you tell me why it's changing...
It breaks my heart each time...
When it dies...

The desire we will fight
It's burning in my veins
We're exploiting our fears
Bringing fire to tears, I am lost

Choking on nothing
Hands turning cold
The deeper the mind goes
The deeper the hole

I'm reaching a point where
No one else goes
My fate seems to be split in half
Can't control it at all

Words turn to ashes
Comfort won't help
Pointless to reach out
I'm losing myself

All I know is I wish this could end
Get rid of this feeling and stop to pretend

Let me... try to understand as
I've failed to be... someone I'm not
It's so real... I've been fooled once again
I've been forced to feel...

It's like I'm not present
It's like I'm not here
A voice calls with vengeance
I am lost with the fear

Searching for meaning, searching within
The lust that was broken, has vanished again
Feels like a set up with no one to trust
The pictures I'm seeing won't leave till they're loved

So let me... try to understand as
I've failed to be... someone I'm not
It's so real... I've been fooled once again
I've been forced to feel...

And now I wonder what's become of me
Is it the truth that was found?
Whatever it is, I won't respect the sound of giving things up...


Choking on nothing
Hands turning cold
The deeper the mind goes
The deeper the hole

I'm reaching a point where
No one else goes
My fate seems to be split in half
Can't control it at all

Let me... try to understand as
I've failed to be... someone I'm not
It's so real... I've been fooled once again
I've been forced to feel...

So let me...

Once I lost it
It took hold of me
Once again
Lost and left to see
What was there
Wouldn't let me be
Spoiled with misery
Spoiled with energy

Let me be that one
Who will rise and return from sleep
Give me strength to run
Become one with the remedy

No regrets, no compromise
Story will be told
Won't reject the cure this time
Let this river flow...

As the river
Meets the sea
That's when the ghost
Becomes my belief
Will it wash up?
Serve in need?
Bring the harvest
Without greed...

Bring the harvest, without greed...
Bring the harvest, let me feel...
One for the core, one for the mind
One by one, make me run

Let me be that one
Who will rise and return from sleep
Give me strength to run
Become one with the remedy

No regrets, no compromise
Story will be told
Won't reject the cure this time
Let this river flow...

I will rise up
I will rise up
I will rise up once again

I will rise, I will rise again...

So clear to me yesterday
So clear once for all
It was there almost watching me
Became one with the fall

What if the best of me
Will say that I won't recall
If those empty witnesses
Won't say nothing at all

No regrets, no compromise
Story will be told
Won't reject the cure this time
Let this river flow...

Lost, it's been a long time
For this moment to come
Lost, it's been a long line
Where I've been waiting too long

All those words and the consequences
Won't you please shed some light
All the fear and all that joy
Guide my way as I turn in desire

How it hurts when I give up
The way that it ends
Twist and turn till it erupts
The way it commands...

Lost, it's been a long fight
And it kept holding on
Lost, it's been a long sigh
It has been clearing my mind

All those years being overloaded
All the strength I put in
Let me share what I've done to myself
I've been losing to win

How it hurts when I give up
The way that it ends
Twist and turn till it erupts
The way it commands...

How it hurts when I give up...
You don't understand
Twist and turn, the way it looks into my eyes again


How it hurts when I give up
The way that it ends
Twist and turn till it erupts
The way it commands...

How it hurts when I give up
You don't understand
Twist and turn, the way it looks
The way it commands...

Where is it all?
Where am I?

Only present to bleed, only present to die
Only scratching the joy, yet filled with desire
I will be turning my head off...

I've made ways to forgive, I've made ways to forget
Ceasing the hours, made a friend I can reach
Can you hear how it's calling?
I'll make sure it's not falling

How long will I
Turn myself around this time
Can I revive?

And then it came
Blood rushing straight through the eyes of pain
Moving up, getting sane

It feels the same
But times takes a toll on this buried flame
Lift me up, say my name

I was longing longing to feel it, crying for sleep
Finding the essence, burned by the heat
Given the answer, given the cause
Suddenly seeing, it was lost when I called

I'm crashing down - nothing to keep
Without a sound - I wed the weak
When it turns out the enemy's loose
At the back of my mind it is twisting the truth

How long will I
Turn myself around this time
Can I revive?

And then it came
Blood rushing straight through the eyes of pain
Moving up, getting sane

It feels the same
But times takes a toll on this buried flame
Lift me up, say my name


The feeling surrounds me, bigger than pain
Awaken by loss, engaged to maintain
It might switch for all I know
I'll let it drown in the afterglow

And then it came
Blood rushing straight through the eyes of pain
Moving up, getting sane

It feels the same
But times takes a toll on this buried flame
Lift me up, say my name

Here I am, the prodigal son
The self proclaimed deprived
Spending hours of fighting the peace
When I should lay it on the line

It makes it hard, I won't fall asleep
Until I'm one with the other side
Fighting shadows, imaginary scenes
Flashing through my mind

So... could I be on the rise
Reality or disguise
Constantly mesmerized
Ripped and torn
Hypnotized

Let me feel the urge to get that rush once more
I will beckon when the sound of venture calls

When will I learn to resist?


I should have put it down
While it was in my hands
Like love that never dies

I'm preaching words
That could answer it all
As I'm bound to break the ties

I'm making progress again
The return of the blind
Feel the kick setting in
Don't ever choke it again...

Let me feel the urge to get that rush once more
I will beckon when the sound of venture calls

Could I be on the rise
Reality or disguise
Constantly mesmerized
Ripped and torn
Hypnotized

I'm making progress again
The return of the blind
Feel the kick setting in
Don't ever choke it again...

I'm on the rise!
