01. When A Demon Defiles A Witch

They appear!

I remember when the fire was
security, now it's killing me.
A wolf can't hunt without its
prey, so take me to my grave.

The demons dance by
the fireside but tonight
they migrate to my bedside.

Burn the bed,
burn everything.
It's a lie anyway!

There's nowhere left to run,
there's nowhere left for me to be
without you by my side.

I cry but if you take a closer
look you'll see it's a demon's eyes.
There's no coming back for me,
for my spirit guide is trapped
inside my brain.

I don't know who I am!
In the name of the Father and
the Holy Ghost close your gates,
lock the doors, there is no hope.

Burn the bed,
burn everything.
It's a lie anyway!

There's nowhere left to run,
there's nowhere left for me to be
without you by my side.

How could the world
take you from me?
They all deserve
to burn with me!

What has the world come to
when a demon defiles a witch?
Nobody trusts a word I say!
I can't erase these memories
but I will erase humanity.

Erase humanity!

Burn the bed,
burn everything.
It's a lie anyway!

There's nowhere left to run,
there's nowhere left for me to be
without you by my side.

How could the world
take you from me?
They all deserve
to burn with me!

02. Forgiveness Is Weakness

He is finally dead!
Come celebrate this day,
it was slow and full of pain.

Good riddance!

I hope you're born again so I can
have my turn to beat you and cut you,
put my curse upon you and pass you
down to my bloodline's youth.

Admit it all you want,
the truth shall never
set you free!

Revenge is sweet but so is disease
when it turns you into a slave.
Gather your friends and your family,
so they can watch me spit and
piss on your grave.

Forgiveness is useless,
it's just another form of weakness.
This is for my family,
let us have this moment.

He is finally dead!
Come celebrate this day,
it was slow and full of pain.

Good riddance!

I hope you're born again so I can
have my turn to beat you and cut you,
put my curse upon you and pass you
down to my bloodline's youth.

Admit it all you want,
the truth shall never
set you free!

This is for my family and
the ones who suffered with us,
let us have this moment.

The years have come and gone
and we all still remain broken,
let us have this moment.

He's finally dead!

We all know you're going to Hell,
come back to life I'll send you myself!
Dig the casket from the dirt, you don't
deserve to be one with the earth.

Revenge is sweet but so is disease
when it turns you into a slave.
Gather your friends and your family,
so they can watch me spit and
piss on your grave.

Forgiveness is useless,
it's just another form of weakness.
This is for my family,
let us have this moment.

03. Brimstone

Sleep with one eye open,
you've no idea what I'm capable of.
Keep claiming holier than thou,
my knife can stab more holes
than you can count.

How dare you sleep
where a King once slept,
and dry the tears of where
his Queen has wept?

Kill, torture, terrorize,
welcome to my mind.

Terror comes in many forms
and tonight I'm terror,
you're my whore.

For now I'll leave you
blind but still alive,
so you can feel my
presence stronger.

This soil has cursed me,
my inner demon's thirsty.
You've confirmed to me
the world isn't safe!

My only worry in the world
is that you can walk on
your own two feet.

Because when you feel
that last breath slip away,
I won't get to see you fall
down to your knees.

Kill, torture, terrorize,
welcome to my mind.

Kill, torture, terrorize!
Kill, torture, terrorize!
Kill, torture, terrorize,
welcome to my mind.

Terror comes in many forms
and tonight I'm terror,
you're my whore.

I sold my soul so
long ago so I could
watch you burn!

Kill, torture, terrorize!
Kill, torture, terrorize!
Kill, torture, terrorize,
welcome to my mind.

04. Hickory Creek

It's so hard to let go,
you can hear me but
I'm invisible.

But if you dig out your eyes
maybe pain will subside,
the worst that could happen
is you never see me again.

But the worst
is yet to come,
my friend.

This path I walk is
comforting but now I'm left
to sing this song alone,
I'm fading faster now.

I left so long ago,
you never noticed
I was gone.

Now that you don't have eyes
maybe now you'll realize
within your own head you're
creating these lies.

For what it's worth you're
still beautiful but beauty
lies within the eyes.

This path I walk is
comforting but now I'm left
to sing this song alone,
I'm fading faster now.

It's time to walk
away with nothing left,
nothing left in my soul.
I'm fading into myself!

This path I walk is
comforting but now I'm left
to sing this song alone,
I'm fading faster now.

It's time to walk
away with nothing left,
nothing left in my soul.
I'm fading faster now!

05. Black Bear

With this body
he is God and
I am nothing!

He has come for the blood of my only son,
I can sense his heartbeat slowly fade.
The sound of my voice is his way to me,
I buried my tongue with my family's bones.

As I lay me down to sleep
I pray to the Lord to put
me six feet deep.

Put me six feet deep!

Father forgive me for I have sinned,
I know that we will all meet our fate.
Even the beast of the underworld burns
eternally within his own flame.

Sleep my son, feel my embrace,
please don't forget my love.
As the bullet goes through his brain
I wake up to live it again and again.

As I lay me down to sleep
I pray to the Lord to put
me six feet deep.

Put me six feet deep!
Pray to the Lord to
put me six feet deep.

06. We Are One

Hallowed be thy name!
I scream these words
as I slip into madness,
someone pull me out.

I am many but numbers
count for nothing.
Therefore I'm nothing too!

However, I'm a murderer,
but I could be a savior
and someone's mother.
I have it all!

I'm a saint,
a sinner and a child
but we all still
look the same.

And you'll never know my name,
you'll never take them from me.
We are one, we are one!

Yeah go!

He's just trying to help us,
maybe we should listen.
Shut your mouth, you don't know
what's best for us or anything.

What will you say the
moment we all come together?
Tell him all the lies or speak
the truth of what we are?

I'm a murderer but
I could be a savior
and someone's mother.
I have it all!

I'm a saint,
a sinner and a child
but we all still
look the same.

Accept what we are,
the longer you fight
We become more.

Accept what we are,
the longer you fight
We become more.

You need this to be whole,
suck it down, breathe out the smoke,
come back to what you know.

Close your eyes, let it go,
you know that we're all powerful.
We are madness, we are one!

We are one
We are madness,
we are one.

We're all powerful,
we are madness
We are one...

07. The Other Side

I don't think I'll make it!
I take my ego and set it to the side,
forget who I am, reevaluate my life,
eternal doom is coming for me.

I don't think I'll make it!

Dripping sweat,
I make my way to
the other side.

I don't think I'll make it!

Clench my jaw
and pull myself
up to my feet.

I've got to make it out!

Through all the hatred and pain
I'll stand by my brothers' side,
we'll overcome and make it out
To the other side.

No regrets, no guilt or sympathy,
I turn my back on the woes of history.
Eternal doom is a distant memory,
I've finally made it.

Dripping sweat,
I make my way to
the other side.

I've finally made it out!

Clench my jaw
and pull myself
up to my feet.

I've finally made it out!

Through all the hatred and pain
I'll stand by my brothers' side,
we'll overcome and make it out
To the other side.

We'll make it out!

Once in the dirt,
now above the clouds.
I am now free, I am godlike!

I am reborn!
The universe is
at my feet.

I am godlike...

08. Third Depth

A fantasy awakes,
a dark desire to Watch
you slip away into oblivion.

I can't wait to see
your flesh turn pale,
when I hear the last
breath you take fail.

Even with you dead,
I still feel the pain,
in my heart things will
never be the same.

Now I must live out
this dark fantasy,
I am not the man
I came to be.

Should I feel this way
I'm not supposed to?
I can't find it in me
to care at all.

It's a shame we don't
see eye to eye,
that's why I am here
to take your life.

Even with you dead,
I still feel the pain,
in my heart things will
never be the same.

Now I must live out
this dark fantasy,
I am not the man
I came to be.

Serenity never felt so empty,
sanity never came back to me.
I'm not stable, I'm not stable...

Even with you dead,
I still feel the pain,
in my heart things will
never be the same.

Now I must live out
this dark fantasy,
I am not the man
I came to be.

09. Lovelace

Picking at my scabs again,
I just want to see them bleed.
I am numb and dead inside,
bring me back to life.

I don't want to talk anymore,
close my eyes and stop my heart.
Words only enhance the sound
of what I don't care about.

At what moment did you
realize that I meant nothing,
when did everything fall apart?

Help me, I'm begging,
I'm pleading, I need you now.
Help me, running away won't
get you found.

Help me, flesh and blood
runs deeper than this.
Help me, help me find
my way back home.

Father can you hear me,
I'm trapped inside a nightmare.
Wake me up or put me in the ground.

Mother can you see me,
I need you to be there.
Running away will never
get you found.

All you ever need is
to shove that needle deep
and reach your eternal sleep.

At what moment did you
realize that I meant nothing,
when did everything fall apart?

All you ever need is
to shove that needle deep
and reach your eternal sleep.

All you ever need is
to shove that needle deep
and reach your eternal sleep.

Father can you hear me,
I'm trapped inside a nightmare.
Wake me up or put me in the ground.

Mother can you see me,
I need you to be there.
Running away will never
get you found.

10. Doom Woods

In the night they call my name!

The moon is my light to a
greater side of Hell, but I am
already there collecting my
childhood nightmares.

She's gone and I want
to disappear, disappear.
Take me away into the trees!

I dread the sun to rise,
bury me so the night
will never end.

They say don't
walk to the darker side,
but where the light shines
the devil is alive

I've seen Hell
through a child's eyes,
and I know in time
the Devil I will find.

The Devil I will find!

In time I will escape
but in this place my soul
remains encased.

The leaves have
swallowed the sun,
my heart has reached
absolute zero.

I have no one left,
even my shadow has
died on me.

She's gone and I want
to disappear, disappear.
Take me away into the trees!

I dread the sun to rise,
bury me so the night
will never end.

Tear him from his mother's hands,
turn this young boy to a man.
Don't you cry for him now!

Tear him from his mother's hands,
turn this young boy to a man.
Now his destiny's found!

Don't walk to the darker side,
but where the light shines
the devil is alive

I've seen Hell
through a child's eyes,
and I know in time
the Devil I will find.

The Devil I will find!

The devil is alive,
he will find you.
The devil is alive...
