02. Throwing Your Life Away
I saw the worst of you
You saw the worst of me Gotta learn to let it go And leave it be You're no good for me I'm no good for you Thought it'd last forever How sad and naive Can you try to see things my way... Can you listen to what I say? And you keep on calling back for more Throwing your life away Throw your life away Do what you got to do I must confess - I couldn't care less About your sorry... mess ... Life can be so unforgiving... ... Life can be so cold... 03. Salt In Your Wounds
Don't turn your back on me
I'm not going anywhere I'm telling you as a friend There's more to life Down on your luck Walking that very fine line The pressures too much You're losing your touch Been a long time coming Time to break the mould Been a long time coming No more salt in your wounds What's done is done What you did was wrong Now pick up the pieces and move on Don't turn your back on me I'm not going anywhere I'm telling you as a friend There's more to life 04. One Man Army
There is darkness all around me
Or is it all within me? Plastic faces, they are melting They couldn't stand my heat One man army... (Out of control...) Phase two could be fatal No time for fear, next level's here Chain of command - it is broken Inside my head the voice is clear Warning light shines red Reports show 1 million dead The pressure's on to deliver Once again I am your saviour There is darkness all around me Or is it all within me? Plastic faces, they are melting They couldn't stand my heat ...I am the chosen one... ...The one man army... ...Out of control! 05. Through The Halls
Floating in a dreamlike state
My body is sleeping my mind is awake Losing... control... Letting go... letting it flow... Been floating down the river Through halls of jasmine trees Otherworldly beauty As far as my eyes can see The whole world is open Stretching out its arms Beneath me the ocean It's calling my name Leaving all my burdens behind The past and the future entwined Losing... control... Letting go... letting it flow... 06. Treading Water
How did you get this far?
Lying, cheating, stealing your way You are burning out - Like a falling star Always looking out for number one When you're all alone At the end of your days When you're all alone Will you regret your ways? Never to find your inner peace You're treading water again Need to find some kind of release But you're dancing on storm clouds 07. Dying Every Day
Working my fingers to the bone
Too old to run too young to die Light a fire And warm my soul So far from home I don't know where I'm going anymore This ain't living... just dying everyday At the end of the day, I'm all alone Not falling anymore, but my life ain't my own 08. Born To Die
Never had it easy
Was never on a roll Never felt love, sweet love Always felt the pain Never left compassion For my fellow man Some say I was born to die Well, I guess they're right I was born to die I guess this was my life Never meant to cry But this pain is driving me insane Never lived the good life Always warring with myself Never felt joy, sweet joy Always felt the pain Grew up on the edge of a sharp steel knife Some say I was born to die Well, I guess they're right ...Guess this was my life... ...Never meant to cry... ...I was born to die... 10. In My Blood
I have sailed upon the devil's sea
Tossed and torn, battered and worn Lived through the pain Survived my final battle I'm coming home It's in my blood - In my soul It can't be bought - can't be sold Won't back down - will cut you down In my blood - In my soul The moon and stars, They guide me through the night Can't change my situation Nor my destination I will return and take back what's mine You will learn that this is my life 11. Elusive
You will never see the real me
I have no interest in you Wipe off - that trown You cannot hold me down I know I can shine But not for you I will have my day My time will come Stick around Spend some time Your mental chains Stick around You will see Can't keep me in line 12. Sleeping With One Eye Open
Been going nowhere
For so long you don't care Can't hold a thought in your head Kinda wasted, kinda dead Days go by... Watch the pendulum swing Your fear of life Seems so strange Sleeping with one eye open Just a cold, empty stare You revel in your despair Kinda wasted, kinda dead 13. No One Heard
You're waiting for salvation
- Guess it never came to pass Who helps you when you're searching - You know that nothing lasts Still you plead for absolution - And you're buying all the lies - He was never there, never there All your praying - it's all lies All your kneeling - I spit in your eyes The fate of betrayers - You got what you deserved All your praying - No one heard Ignoring what's around you - Never heeding nature's call Building temples and double standards - Watching wisdoms fall Still you think you've been chosen - Hypocrisy standing tall You think your God is waiting - One eye laughs in his hall |
