I am the one you will call the destroyer
The messenger of my disgrace (I am my own disease)
You sit on your throne of compassion
The charges will fall as we all go marching so helplessly on

We came this far to tear the curtain
Shed light so I can see your eyes
Shed your light on me

What is this unhealthy obsession
to destroy everything you create?
(I am my own disease)
You, the God of the broken and wrenched
The charges will fall
I am my own disease

I carried the weight of this burden
I've watched as they all fell away
*this is not just a dream it's a nightmare
I carried the weight of this burden
I've watched as they all fell away
It's not just a dream it's a nightmare

We came this far to tear the curtain
Shed light so I can see your eyes
Shed your light on me

We wall fall to ruins if we don't bury disguises that we've made
We will see the finish if we would carry ourselves to the end of the race
The charges will fall
I am my own disease

I am my own disease
I am my own disease

You said it yourself.
To convalesce from empty sorrow,
someone had to squeal.
To drive to the bottom.
You said I know.
I know it's not your fault.
Like wire around your bones you would never numb.
I take it I'm a mad man, but I would never squeal.
I never said it was no good.

The innocent will rest in the peace they've been given.
Paintings will sleep on the floor.
Build walls of lonely dreams as beauty fades.
I can't take this anymore.

Lock yourself up like a bird in a cage.
You sing but no one ever listens.
How much were you paid to sell out the mad man?
Like a scientist or a master of design.
I knew exactly what I was doing.
I heard of your disease,
and shots of penicillin barely kept you alive.

The innocent will rest in the peace they've been given.
Paintings will sleep on the floor.
Build walls of lonely dreams as beauty fades.
I can't take this anymore.

I am the clone. I dwell in silence.

The innocent will rest in the peace they've been given.
Paintings will sleep on the floor.
Build walls of lonely dreams as beauty fades.
I can't take this anymore.

We are but captives.
We are diseased.
We know that one day
we will be free.

I've seen it again and again.
We just have to close the door
and you know we can't ever let them in.
You got what you wanted.
You got what you wanted so just go.
And now you can't make a single noise.
So what do you have to lose?
You got what you wanted.
Subject to the judgment of a fool.
You got what you wanted so just go.
Am I meant to follow? What is it to lead?
The tone of a steady voice or the sound of a piercing scream?

The dirt under my fingernails tells of the grave I'm digging.
And I know there's something out there that I have to see that's haunting me.

We'll kill the parasite that lingers in our skin.
The loss of appetite.
But you got what you wanted.

Am I meant to follow? What is it to lead?
The tone of a steady voice or the sound of a piercing scream?
The dirt under my fingernails tells of the grave I'm digging.
And I know there's something out there that I have to see that's haunting me.

They'll never know, they'll never know.
I'm not exactly what they wanted.
The man they thought I was began to die.
We just have to close the door and we can't ever let them in.
You got what you wanted, now you'll find somewhere to begin.

We are but captives. We are deceased.
We know that one day we will be free.

The dirt under my fingernails tells of the grave I'm digging.
And I know there's something out there that I have to see that's haunting me.

Can you feel the tension?
Have you heard the voices of the lost?
Churning up the fire
To reach the dark side of you

When the walls decide to close in
And the floor disappears beneath you
Just hang on to our last words and

Resolve

Touch your hands to water
Place them on the fire
Have faith
The flame will lose it's strength
Just touch your hands to water

Hold your breath for one more second
Soak the torch in kerosine
And light the match and
Watch as it all closes in

Can you feel the tension
Can you hear the voices of the lost?
Just hang out to our last words and

Resolve

Our lives will hang on the words
You have spoken
And we will wait for our God to return

Lift your hands to the Heaven
Let your heart be incased in flames

Touch your hands to water
Place them on the fire
Have faith
The flame will lose it's strength
Just touch your hands to water

Our lives will hang on the words
You have spoken
And we will wait for our God to return

Lift your hands to the Heaven
Let your heart be incased

So cold, your icy fingers
Around my neck
You offer this rotten apple
Begging me to taste and see
I take just one bite

I know you're coming like a bad dream
When the demons fall to place
Perverting all the answers
Corrupting what's inside you
Believing everything
Cut deeper to the core

But we know what's inside

Go to bed young dreamer
A prophet you'll arise
To call us out
Go to bed young dreamer
You tell of our decline
But you follow us down

The breath of the fallen angel
Brings death if you breathe it in
Although you know what dwells inside

To bite down, to chew, and to swallow
To muscle it down to dissolve
Bed ridden shivering fever
Follow it down

Your icy fingers around my neck
Offering destruction
And begging me to taste and see
So I take just one bite
It's the poison in your veins
It's the shiver down your spine
Cut deeper to the core
But we know what's inside

And we know you'll bite down
And you'll follow us all the way down

Foresee the day of the Lord
The Heavens blacken above them
The day will bring no light
For I will shake the heavens

Raise the flag on the hilltop
For now we march to Babylon
Say a prayer for the fallen
It's time to choose which side you are on

Hear the noise on the mountain
From the furthest horizon

Pick up the pieces as they fall
Our sins wont carry our burdens
So will you leave them behind?
While I've been held behind these walls
Will I be left or forgotten?

They run like the hunted
For now we march to Babylon
In the darkest of days
The mighty failure has gone

Most glorious of all kingdoms
Will fall like a stone
From the Heavens

Pick up the pieces as they fall
Our sins won't carry our burdens
While I've been held behind these walls
Will I be left or forgotten?

Foresee the day of the Lord
The Heavens blacken above them
The day will bring no light
For I will shake the heavens

Cold in a panic.
Keep my away from this.
In this damp air, there is ignorance in bliss.
Have you ever seen when the stars go out and it blackens the scenery?

No way around it.
I'm sorry I may not amount to much.
In secret I'm dirty, and I've chosen to give up.

There's something about your motives that never answer the questions.
The ending of all disasters will invoke reform.

No way around it.
I'm sorry I may not amount to much.
In secret I'm dirty, and I've chosen to give up.

Invoke the progress in a simple mind in the factory.
Invoke the progress when the stars go out and it blackens the scenery.

Cold in a panic.
Keep my away from this.
In this damp air, there is ignorance in bliss.

This is a celebration
Of the ones who lost
Their chance to die
Will you believe the masses
Or will you overcome?

We are the sons of the fallen nation
We hold the keys to our demise
And grace will kiss your head
As you fall asleep

I'm so tired of always letting you down
Still you offer to turn it around
I just can't seem to get my feet on the ground
Still you offer to turn it around

This is your one destraction
Weakening your ability to grow
So you'll push yourself further away
Eyes of zeros, of nothing
Still you throw it all away
And you'll push yourself further and further away

I'm so sick of the desire
To throw it away
And I feel so expired
So I'll bury my head and dissolve

I'm so tired of always letting you down
Still you offer to turn it around
I just can't seem to get my feet on the ground
Still you offer to turn it around

Sever the head of a snake
Lie there and wait for distraction
Sever the head of a snake
Lie there and wait for the pain to sink in

I'm so tired of always letting you down
Still you offer to turn it around
I just can't seem to get my feet on the ground
Still you offer to turn it around

Sever the head of a snake

We are fortunately ever so self-destructive
We live inside this labyrinth
Waiting to go home

Labyrinth oh labyrinth
Your worst is what we'd might expect from you
And in your tired walls you sing out of tune
Come in

Labyrinth oh labyrinth
Your worst is what we'd might expect from you
And in your tired walls you sing out of tune

Come in, make your self at home
'Cause you wont be leaving soon
All your friends are dead and gone
And you've got nothing to lose

You tried to spit at the sun
Burn it out, like a burning ember
(The ember burns inside)
As you call under the moon
Make it heard
Let this be straight forever
(The ember burns inside)
'Cause the life you live is less than alive

As they scream
"Let them burn"
You know you'll burn at the hands of your king
As they scream
"Let them burn"
You know you won't
You won't forgive them

She crawls through the dirt like a four-legged spider
He's there, laying beside her
As the serpent's tongue is wrapped around her neck
Let them burn
Let them burn

And he knows that she died inside
And he knows

Open hands hold porcelain souls
Into the ears of a traitor
I still see a believer
The witness is here

She's a witch and I love her
Bring back her soul with the blood of the saviour
Is it too much to forgive?
The witness is here

Open all the voiceless souls
She falls to her knees and she begs for forgiveness
As the heavens open their gates
The wood burns and the fire blazes
But he brought back her soul with the blood of the saviour

Red leaves blow in the wind
Leaving home and everything it's known behind
Barren branches wave goodbye
As the red leaves slowly die

Every flower stares and watches
As the wind takes me away
Before the sun shone upon me
Now the wind takes me away

Red leaves falling
Through the branches
Making their way to the ground
Blowing by the flowers sleeping
No one knows the leaves are leaving

Every flower stares and watches
As the wind takes me away
Before the sun,sun shone upon me
As the wind takes me away

Every flower stares and watches
As the wind takes me away
Before the sun shone upon me
Now the wind takes me away

Every flower stares and watches
Every flower stares and watches
