01. Become The Fuse

I Won't own the consequence of your deception
Or live within the confines of your blame
I can't see the destruction of peace
From the places I know are guarded by belief
We may never undo what is ruinous
But we will weather what storms may strike
From this day on, may the torch inside always stay

Ignited with burning conviction

Become the fuse
Behold the fire of redemption
Become the fuse
Let this be the catalyst of action

You know what it takes to be ignited?
So much more to say so much more to be done
Silence can never be divided
And love will never be enough

Believe only some of what you see
Awaken the light you know that exists within
You know what is holding you captive
Is in conflict with your perception

Become the fuse
Become the fire within
Become the fuse
The strength to be the catalyst of action

Awaken, the dormant force
Awaken, the light within
Awaken, it must be done
Awaken, become the fuse

You know what it takes to be ignited?
So much more to say so much more to be done
Silence can never be divided
And love will never be enough

We may never undo what is ruinous
But we will weather what storms may strike
From this day on, may the torch inside be always stay

Ignited with burning conviction
Become the fuse
Behold the power of redemption
Become the fuse
Let this be the catalyst of action
Become the fuse
Summon fire of devotion
Become the fuse
Let this be a life transformation

02. Not My Master

This day is worth living
This fight is worth fighting
This hope is worth hoping
What I walk away from is not my master

This day is worth living
This fight is worth fighting
This hope is worth hoping
What I walk away from is not my master

If it came down to life or death would you even make a choice
If it was tomorrow would you see the today you've destroyed
I feel like I've been here before so many painful times
But I know your crying for my help not of your own device

Denounce, denounce. Denounce their cure
It's worse than the disease
Denounce, Denounce. Denounce their cure
Deny their disbelief

Just keep telling yourself
This day is worth living
This fight is worth fighting
This hope is worth hoping
What I walk away from is not my master

Just keep telling yourself
This day is worth living
This fight is worth fighting
This hope is worth hoping
What I walk away from is not my master

You've left and claimed one more lie to live
With so many more fears to cower in
And ill spill your blood in the abyss of tears
Then spread my remains on the battlefield

Denounce, denounce. Denounce their cure
It's worse than the disease
Denounce, Denounce. Denounce their cure
Deny their disbelief

And I keep telling myself
I just keep telling myself
I just keep telling myself
What I walk away from is not my master

It's so true when they say
Sometimes you just gotta walk away
And never look back!

It's so true when they say
Sometimes you just gotta walk away
And never look back!

03. Between Hell And A Heartbeat

Deformed living hemorrhage knotted into flesh
Betrayal lives within hosts
Anchored in bones
Surviving on secrets told

All screams are but whispers
In the realm of the barely living
Unraveled, in the arms that carried
If it's still worth loving it's still worth letting go

One last nail
In the coffin of all your trust
Where there once was love now lives total disgust

Somewhere between hell and a heartbeat [x2]

Sometimes the unforeseeable
Is what our lives become
And now matter how strong and spirited we are
Some hold the weight of the harm done

One last nail
In the coffin of all your trust
Where there once was love now lives total disgust

Deprived
Undreamed of
Somewhere between hell and a heartbeat

Grey skies rain down a hail of black
Put your ear to my chest and hear nothing
This is oblivion
Absence heard with clarity
Just hope it's all a dream
Stagnation of the all being
We cease to be
Somewhere between hell and a heartbeat

04. In Ashes They Shall Reap

Born to bleed fighting to succeed
Built to endure what this world throws at me [x4]

Let me tell you of a force crashing through my veins again
Like a page torn from a chapter of a book of better days
In the moments that we see together some will never know
It's these words that never give to justice screaming all alone

I was born to bleed fighting to succeed
Built to endure what this world throws at me
Born to bleed fighting to succeed
Built to endure what this world throws at me

You may trusted me an answer and put hope in
Me a seed
All these memories come haunt us if we still feel to believe
Now the fear we all once held is a breath we must attain
Because those who sow in flames in ashes they shall reap
Ashes are all that you're left with what you sow in flames [x4]
Our life sorrows of my own creation saving sand for a love [x3]
Those who sow in flames, in ashes they shall reap

I was born to bleed, fighting to succeed
Built to endure what this world throws at me

Born to bleed, fighting to succeed
Built to endure what this world throws at me [x5]

But those who sow in flames in ashes they shall reap [x2]
Those who sow in flames in ashes they shall reap

05. Hands Of A Dying Man

This goes on...

Before me lies a wounded soul
A spirit at the end of a lonely road
Such a cruel fate looms yet he has no fear
As the sands of existence fall like tears

All joy had perished
All contempt was mine
Once I held the hands
Hands of a dying man

Another crow lingers overhead
Now that I know the cold touch
From the hands of a dying man

Death devours never resting
Never fed, never repenting
Robbed of justice, stripped faith
Accepting this all it what it must take

So pass your judgement
An cast your stones
But only once you've held the hands, hands of a dying man

I will grant your forgiveness
For the wrong you've done
Once you've felt the coldest touch
From the hands of a dying man

And for those who still speak names in vain
My only justice lies in knowing
They'll eat every fucking word!

So now i use this to...
Strengthen, the fight inside of me
Strengthen, beyond what you can see
Strengthen, my resolve
In honour of those who choose to carry on
I strengthen, the fight inside of me
Strengthen, beyond what you can see
Strengthen, my resolve
Always in the names of those who carry on

One day you'll know a touch so cold
And you'll embrace it all alone
And what inside it what you would
This is where it all strikes cold

06. Everyone Bleeds Now

You fucking bleed now

Underneath the veil was a
Killing power
Only a cursed love could retain
I lent it a vision and a voice
And pleaded in the greatest moment of need

Carved into time
Every reflection dies
This will be the bleeding of your life

Carved into time
Every reflection dies
Every reflection dies
Until you see it clearer
Every reflection dies
Inside the broken mirror

Every reflection dies

And now I'm forced to see...

You fucking bleed now
Everyone fucking bleeds now

Crowned in pure disdain
Barely able to contain
Now this will all end in blood
Cleansing, lasting, murderous

Carved into time
Every reflection dies
This will be the bleeding of your life

Carved into time
Every reflection dies

Nothing was enough
And once was to fucking much
Nothing was enough
This will end in blood

Get bled

Everyone fucking bleeds now

07. No Halos For The Heartless

I see a world that's out of focus
Lost and dying as we witness virtue
Thrown aside

Now degenerates and leeches thrive
While the working mans condemned
And the junkies, risen up onto a throne of lies
A wretched pedestal
But only fools will watch it all

I have no halos for the heartless
No pity for the insincere
No honour for the worthless
Who've done nothing in life to be revered

When addicts die
Their abuse fades
If heroes live
They face the hardest days

They'll stigmatize the soldier
And question motives to try
And cheapen all their sacrifice
They pay homage to those who don't deserve
Praising thieves and liars
The corrupt and the pariahs
Decency is left to die

It's completely despicable
Only weak minds will deem them worthy

I have no halos for the heartless
No pity for the insincere
No honour for the worthless
Who've done nothing in life to be revered

I have no halos for the heartless
No pity for the insincere
No honour for the worthless
You never did a fucking thing in your life to be revered

08. Through The Thorns

Soldier on

Now it's all irrelevant
The journey here and what it meant
The time and distance
Others hate for my persistence
Every stride enlightens
It's all begins emerging
I've been here before
But veered from my path
I will get

Through, the trials
Through, the trenches
Through, the demons
The voice inside pushes me
Through, the trails
Through, the trenches
Through, The demons
The truth will soldier on
And it will surface
Something inside gets me
Through the thorns

Through, thoughts that kill me slowly
Time, times that test us all
Thorns, that pierce and cut us deeply
I soldier on and I get through
Through, thoughts that kill me slowly
Time, times that test us all
Thorns, that pierce and cut us deeply
The voices inside pushes me through

Only the true soldier on

Into oceans of hurt
Over mountains of grief
When it manifests
I got enough enough fight inside to get

Through, the trails
Through, the trenches
Through, the demons
The voice inside pushes me
Through, the trails
Through, the trenches
Through, the demons
The truth will soldier on and it will surface
And when it matters most
This will always get me...
Through the thorns!

Only the true
Only the true
Only the true
Only the true, will see this truth

Through! The! Thorns!
I soldier on and I get
Through! The! Thorns!
The voices inside pushes me through!

09. Every Lasting Scar

Hard rain pours down on the concrete
Seeps in deep below
Cold screams of the city are
Heard through the walls of every home

Most seek for a deeper meaning
Beyond their daily woes
Most see nothing more than black clouds
It's all that they know

We Become
Our scars, if we let them
But all that we truly need
Is out there for the taking

We scream every word
It's brought us together
Every lasting scar
Reminds us how we got here

We scream every word
It's brought us together
Every lasting scar
Shows what it's taken to be
Who we are

Some dwell into emptiness
The hurt they claim is real
Been let down now it's meaningless
They find ways to conceal

Never to be seen again
Until it's all too late
And if we don't learn from it all
Well repeat the same mistakes

We Become
Our scars, if we let them
But all that we truly need
Is out there for the taking

Every lasting scar
Shows us what it's taken to be
Who we are!

We scream every word
It's brought us together
Every lasting scar
Reminds us how we got here

We scream every word
It's brought us together
Every lasting scar
Shows what it's taken to be
Who we are

We scream every word
It's brought us together
Every lasting scar
Shows what it's taken to be
Who we are!

10. As Damaged As Me

You knew just where to touch
Your words always cut
So much darker than lust
We both longed for trust
So much more than just hate
My hands there to suffocate
So deep I penetrate

When you're as damaged as me
To punish yourself is to love
When you're as damaged as me
You relish in the pain of another

We were destined to fuck
You knew how hard to touch
We were destined to fuck each other
We were destined to fuck
Your words always cut
We were destined to fuck each other

Over!

When you're as damaged as me
Your eyes say what we know
And when you're damaged like me
You like hands upon your throat
When you're as damaged as me
You know you're to fucked for words
And when you're damaged like me
You take what you don't deserve

Inflict the damage!

You take what you don't deserve
What you don't deserve
You take what you don't deserve
You don't deserve
You take what you don't deserve
Now you to fucked for words

You're to fucked for words
Now you're just fucked
You were to fucked for words
Now you're just fucked
You're fucked!

You're to fucked for words
Now you're just fucked!

11. Words Became Untruth

The man drifting seeks poison and promise
A threat to all, mostly to himself
Hearing voices from the great beyond
Now only he can dig himself out

Eyes red, wrists cut
Reaching out but not from heaven
Soul black, head fucked
Hell's existence isn't numb

You can't keep him from the bottom
Where the dwelling begins
Once capable and caring
Now in perils seductive grip
His mournful cries are pitiful
Sung to dying skies with no stars
Now his letter's kept inside a flame
Those who read only know the burning

Eyes red, wrists cut
Reaching out but not from heaven
Soul black, heart fucked
Hells existence isn't numb
Mouth sewn, hands bound
But do you cease the torment
Skin cold, failed unknown
Scream until the blood fill your lung

Yeah, now you're a threat
But only to yourself
Yeah, now you're a threat
To your own tomorrow

All your words became...
All your words became...
All your words became...
Untruth!

12. Undiminished

[Instrumental]

13. Merciless Tide

Father of all that is merciless
Creates what cannot be more vile
Servants beg their twisted master
To victimize defile

The merciless tide
Consumes and purifies
All those who've done wrong
And believe it's right

Your on the wrong side of a merciless tide
And it's crashing down upon you
On the wrong side of a merciless tide
Up to your throat as it haunts and surrounds you

The merciless tide
Has come to paralyze
All those who've done wrong
And believe it's right

Sink!

You're on the wrong side of a merciless tide
Now it's crashing down upon you
On the wrong side of a merciless tide
Up to your throat as it haunts and surrounds you
On the wrong side of a merciless tide
When your punishment is everlasting
On the wrong side of a merciless tide
Where will you hide, when your fate comes crashing?

The tide has turned on you!

Sink!

14. Pollution Of The Soul

Defy it!

It's forced into our minds
It's pollution of the soul
So invasive and poisonous
To resist is to gain control

Leeching the life
Sucking the faith
Polluting the blood
It's everything this world throws at us
Pure distortion of the truth

It's forced into our minds
It's pollution of the soul
So invasive and poisonous
To resist is to gain control

Don't let it burn you alive
Don't let it scar you
Defy it!

Don't let it burn you alive!
Don't let it scar you
Defy it all!

They forced it into our minds
It's pollution of the soul
So invasive and poisonous
To resist is to gain control

15. Escape (New Diehard Edit)

Feel no pain, but my life ain't easy
I know I'm my best friend
No one cares, but I'm so much stronger
I'll fight until the end
To escape from the true false world
Undamaged destiny
Can't get caught in the endless circle
Ring of stupidity

Out for my own, out to be free
One with my mind, they just can't see
No need to hear things that they say
Life is for my own to live my own way

Rape my mind and destroy my feelings
Don't tell me what to do
I don't care now, 'cause I'm on my side
And I can see through you
Feed my brain with your so called standards
Who says that I ain't right
Break away from your common fashion
See through your blurry sight

Out for my own, out to be free
One with my mind, they just can't see
No need to hear things that they say
Life is for my own to live my own way

See them try to bring the hammer down
No damn chains can hold me to the ground

Life is for my own to live my own way
