+ | ====== Paroles ====== | ||
+ | ===== Indecision ===== | ||
+ | ==== ...And You Wear Too Much Make-Up ==== | ||
+ | As empty words poured from her lips - as the vanity suffocates | ||
+ | may I never breathe your name | ||
+ | may I never suffer your presence | ||
+ | may you never need to feel the same | ||
+ | and I'd like to, I'd like to | ||
+ | wish it away | ||
+ | burn it to ash | ||
+ | Erasing shadows that you've cast | ||
+ | ==== At the Wake ==== | ||
+ | How does it feel? How does it feel? | ||
+ | all of your dreams - well did they ever come true? | ||
+ | and did you get what you want? | ||
+ | how does it feel to be alive? | ||
+ | stare into the eyes of all your dead friends | ||
+ | you're the one that did this to them | ||
+ | stare into the eyes of all your dead friends | ||
+ | all these ghosts no longer children | ||
+ | stare into the eyes of all your dead friends | ||
+ | you were met with resistance | ||
+ | you fought hard, you persisted | ||
+ | now look back on your transgressions | ||
+ | head in hands | ||
+ | this is your punishment - and this is your penance | ||
+ | this is your reward - trophies and tombstones | ||
+ | How does it feel to be alive? | ||
+ | ==== Believe ==== | ||
+ | I BELIEVE... | ||
+ | in eternal life, in myself, live forever, in immortality | ||
+ | I believe in a world free of excessive desire | ||
+ | a world filled with compassion and sensitivity | ||
+ | not senseless murder, hate and material obsession | ||
+ | one life that condescends upon the importance of possession | ||
+ | I believe in myself, I believe we are more than just simply bodies | ||
+ | I believe in a million tomorrows and a life after death | ||
+ | I've never asked for anything from life | ||
+ | I'd rather give than take from it | ||
+ | I've never turned my back, I never will | ||
+ | This life is what we make of it | ||
+ | I believe that dreams destroy - that we are more than just bodies | ||
+ | in myself - in a million tomorrows - in human nature - in equality | ||
+ | I believe | ||
+ | ==== Blindfold ==== | ||
+ | Millions are enslaved at the hands of intangible gods | ||
+ | They submit their souls to the merciful unknown | ||
+ | Faith is not a savior - don't give in your grace | ||
+ | You're drowning in your holy water you know theres no escape | ||
+ | You've been seized - by the greed known as faith | ||
+ | Your false prophecy - sacrificed lies clenched so tight - | ||
+ | Do not believe the myths. I will not fall victim to their lies. | ||
+ | Burning Saints (lyrics by Artie) | ||
+ | Where is the center of the world? | ||
+ | arrogance is ignorance, arrogance is blinding | ||
+ | Empires are temporary - every government is temporary | ||
+ | no standard prevails - nothing lasts forever | ||
+ | your assimilation is at hand | ||
+ | shield your eyes from the sun and kneel and pray | ||
+ | waiting for the destruction of the new roman empire | ||
+ | waiting for the end of televised war and plastic culture | ||
+ | reaching across the world and spreading like a fucking cancer | ||
+ | Amputate it, sterilize it and start all over | ||
+ | ==== Cowards ==== | ||
+ | Selfishness fuels the need to satisfy their greed | ||
+ | Rape and take this flesh- take them for what they' | ||
+ | Eye for an eye in punishment for their sins- and now I act in defense of the | ||
+ | defenseless | ||
+ | Cowards! - human liberation- for the dying civilization- | ||
+ | Selfishness fuels the need to satisfy their greed- | ||
+ | animal liberation- for the dying civilization | ||
+ | cowards lead this genocide | ||
+ | innocent life objectified | ||
+ | " | ||
+ | unheard they cry | ||
+ | in loneliness they linger | ||
+ | in agony they die." | ||
+ | ==== ...Crawling ==== | ||
+ | You're running away from your enemies | ||
+ | you submit to every attack | ||
+ | everybody gets their chance to wrap their hands around your neck | ||
+ | this is how life imitates death | ||
+ | nothing changes - nothing moves | ||
+ | spend your final hours hearing roaches crawl across your casket lid | ||
+ | hear the soil falling over your head | ||
+ | it buries you - weakness | ||
+ | crawling on floors and trying to hide yourself in dirt and in cracks | ||
+ | disaster follows you so cross your filthy fingers behind your back | ||
+ | circumstance makes you the victim | ||
+ | that's what you want to believe | ||
+ | But you become the vermin that you hate when you let weakness keep you safe | ||
+ | Let's just say that I went back inside to pull you out | ||
+ | Then you said that you'd much rather crawl | ||
+ | Let's just say that I left you there to rot away | ||
+ | you're so determined - chest dragging... | ||
+ | CRAWL - you're crawling | ||
+ | while I live, I may fail - but I will never be weak | ||
+ | ==== Crucifix Escapist ==== | ||
+ | Dead souls rising to the jailers of the dying | ||
+ | Hear our crying as we cast thy sinners down | ||
+ | An angel fell from hell with its wings aflame | ||
+ | Having served my time in your paradise of torture and despair | ||
+ | To play the harps of sin | ||
+ | Crucifix escapist | ||
+ | ==== Dead ==== | ||
+ | Every day is another nail in your coffin | ||
+ | sealed inside and forgetting all light | ||
+ | take as much as you can -shove it down | ||
+ | and coke on the best years of your life | ||
+ | this is life - so welcome to it | ||
+ | this is life - it's the way it is | ||
+ | this is life - so get used to it | ||
+ | this is life - it doesn' | ||
+ | sacrifice every part of yourself and each day you will never get back | ||
+ | and no matter how much you give | ||
+ | they will still take it - take it all away | ||
+ | take it - take it all away | ||
+ | you will never survive this life | ||
+ | you gave too much of yourself away | ||
+ | you can't survive this life - you're dead | ||
+ | you've sealed yourself away | ||
+ | sealed away from the rest of the world | ||
+ | ==== Destiny ==== | ||
+ | indivisible - we are sworn | ||
+ | a pledge, a vow, a promise - we are sworn| | ||
+ | indivisible- we are sworn | ||
+ | a pledge, a vow, a promise | ||
+ | in times of need of consolation you're there | ||
+ | like my conscience giving me strength like no one else | ||
+ | I can feel you teaching me about myself | ||
+ | I can feel you | ||
+ | letting me know you are there | ||
+ | you're my security- I bleed for no one else | ||
+ | my destiny lies in your eyes - I can feel it, I can see it | ||
+ | your security keeps me alive- I can feel it, I can see it | ||
+ | ==== Disregard ==== | ||
+ | in complete disregard for innocent human life | ||
+ | in complete disregard for the welfare of mankind | ||
+ | destroy your surroundings and let others deal with your mistakes | ||
+ | " | ||
+ | we'll burn the bias - break the chains shun the blame | ||
+ | and take the blame for the final time to shun the persecution of a lifetime | ||
+ | ==== Dream Come True ==== | ||
+ | You build up all that hope, all that faith | ||
+ | to watch it all disappear | ||
+ | Dreams fulfilled are as good as dead | ||
+ | worse than a dream that never came true | ||
+ | dreams die when they come true | ||
+ | dreams die when there?s no hope | ||
+ | nothing to live for | ||
+ | nothing to hope for | ||
+ | nothing to dream of | ||
+ | nothing to wish for | ||
+ | nothing to believe in | ||
+ | nothing to dream of | ||
+ | nothing to hope for | ||
+ | nothing to die for | ||
+ | dreams die when they come true | ||
+ | dreams die when there' | ||
+ | ==== End of a Short Rope ==== | ||
+ | Waking up suicidal | ||
+ | penniless, broken and a wasted | ||
+ | getting used to the desperation - the sweat, the panic | ||
+ | can't find a reason to maintain this charade | ||
+ | why the fuck should I keep going when every day gets more meaningless? | ||
+ | what do you want me to say? everything is not ok | ||
+ | I used to think that I was good enough | ||
+ | but now the easiest decisions are just too much | ||
+ | you have your status and all of your money so don't presume to understand | ||
+ | so don't patronize me privileged fucker | ||
+ | you could never know what it's like to feel so starved | ||
+ | at the end of a short rope | ||
+ | at the end of every night - ask yourself | ||
+ | what is left of your life? | ||
+ | it's a disease | ||
+ | ==== False Prophet Preaching ==== | ||
+ | preach common sense and call it religion | ||
+ | tell me not to kill and now I must worship you? | ||
+ | you're invisible - I can't see you | ||
+ | you're inaudible - I can't hear you | ||
+ | feed the hungry - clothe the naked | ||
+ | starve the hungry - choke the thirsty | ||
+ | let them all bleed dry in my grasp | ||
+ | no angels stalk - stalk, stalk, stalk | ||
+ | I am reborn - I know apocalypse | ||
+ | (and no one fucking tells me) | ||
+ | what is wrong and what is right | ||
+ | ==== Fracture ==== | ||
+ | for 1200 days and nights I remained sleepless | ||
+ | only seemed to lie recounting in a dream that disappeared long ago | ||
+ | as hours grew to days grew to months grew to years | ||
+ | regretfully it appears that this dream was nothing but a foregone conclusion | ||
+ | left to spend my waking days refuting the illusion | ||
+ | put my mind to rest and strengthen my will | ||
+ | display to me your fidelity and put my mind to rest | ||
+ | transparent walls that enclose (fracture) | ||
+ | separating us from the words of those | ||
+ | words untold never cease to repeat nothing superior could I aspire to create | ||
+ | ==== Guilty ==== | ||
+ | no one is born a bigot | ||
+ | there is no mind more open than a child' | ||
+ | but teach a child prejudice, hatred | ||
+ | and that mind begins to close until a racist is born | ||
+ | evil is not innate, no child knows color | ||
+ | teaching their children to lie, prejudge and be close-minded | ||
+ | sometimes what we don't teach our children is more important than what we do | ||
+ | it's relentless | ||
+ | this ignorance that infects us all | ||
+ | it has come to be what we expect | ||
+ | perpetuated by years of ignorance | ||
+ | passed on through the generations | ||
+ | but we won't be deceived | ||
+ | why are we born with blood on our hands and sin on our minds? | ||
+ | why are we born with guilt and a blade hanging over our heads? | ||
+ | evil seems instinctual, | ||
+ | why are the tools no longer given to us? | ||
+ | why have we rights to abuse? | ||
+ | we refuse to be guilty | ||
+ | ==== Hallowed Be Thy Name ==== | ||
+ | I question the sin | ||
+ | systemized beliefs organized | ||
+ | identity in honor in fear | ||
+ | at the mercy so we worship | ||
+ | the lies are not the host | ||
+ | Stockholm syndrome - passed down, let down | ||
+ | promise me salvation, promise me deliverance | ||
+ | Who should I fall for? | ||
+ | Who should I fall to? | ||
+ | Who should I die for? | ||
+ | Who will collapse me? | ||
+ | FOR THOSE I LOVE I WILL SACRIFICE NOT FOR THOSE I'VE NEVER SEEN | ||
+ | Hallowed be thy name | ||
+ | ==== Hello Cruel World ==== | ||
+ | Your popularity contest veiled as a revolution | ||
+ | wallow in misery, suffer your celebrity | ||
+ | hold your status above me | ||
+ | hold it high above me | ||
+ | wallow in your misery, suffer your celebrity | ||
+ | you hold a special place in my heart with handshakes and smiling faces... | ||
+ | ...and all your actions, they have a reason | ||
+ | premeditated compliments | ||
+ | your life - contorted, contrived - and you play the part so well | ||
+ | in their lives I've seen compromise but I will not compromise | ||
+ | your game, your rules, you win | ||
+ | I am their slave | ||
+ | I'm just a pawn in their game | ||
+ | Labels make the best the best targets | ||
+ | persecution is its own reward so still you carry your cross for all to see | ||
+ | why live without an audience? | ||
+ | in their lives I've seen compromise but I will not compromise | ||
+ | complacent slave! | ||
+ | ==== The Higher Side of Low ==== | ||
+ | swallowing an ocean of absence | ||
+ | soaking in the tortured admissions and passionate denials | ||
+ | the absent friends and enemies, the manufactured threats | ||
+ | the crushing weight of memories are all that I have left | ||
+ | the absence of feeling - no love, no pity, no hate | ||
+ | and the absence of anything as what's left of me | ||
+ | drowns in waves of mindless apathy, submerged in total despair | ||
+ | dilute the venom of misery | ||
+ | see the world through the bottom of a glass | ||
+ | as all sensation separates from a numbing heart | ||
+ | another dosage of the antidote suffocates emotion before it starts the same | ||
+ | depression | ||
+ | the same fear...constant frustration at the same reflected stares | ||
+ | ...but cold flesh protects my mind like a clear, smooth, hard bottle-glass skull | ||
+ | from crushing volumes of nothing | ||
+ | ==== How Far the Mighty Have Fallen ==== | ||
+ | never trust in a mortal | ||
+ | a pale symbol of your integrity | ||
+ | aiding your quest to magnify your name | ||
+ | take my place - I had plans to leave | ||
+ | somewhere far from this triviality (insanity) | ||
+ | pedestals that are self made tend to crumble as the spotlight fades | ||
+ | something' | ||
+ | your ego conquered your soul | ||
+ | something' | ||
+ | extremists are always the first to go | ||
+ | the world doesn' | ||
+ | ==== Last Beat Of My Heart ==== | ||
+ | in a wave of forgiveness | ||
+ | on angels wings | ||
+ | we dare to breathe | ||
+ | reach out your hands | ||
+ | don't turn your back, don't walk away | ||
+ | How in the world could i wish for this? | ||
+ | never to be torn apart | ||
+ | close to you until the last beat of my heart | ||
+ | at the close of day | ||
+ | these words in shadow play | ||
+ | here and now - here and now | ||
+ | my heart cries out | ||
+ | the naked bone of an echo says " | ||
+ | reach out your hands | ||
+ | reach our your hands - i'm just a step away | ||
+ | ==== Lies ==== | ||
+ | you're always pointing fingers | ||
+ | you're too blind to be | ||
+ | to proud to blame yourself and too afraid to see | ||
+ | you're always pointing fingers | ||
+ | they should be pointed inward | ||
+ | you're the one at fault | ||
+ | you're too blind to see the truth | ||
+ | no more of your - no more lies | ||
+ | waste my - time with | ||
+ | your lies - your lies | ||
+ | excuses are what failures are made of | ||
+ | but I'm no failure | ||
+ | I point the finger inward | ||
+ | I'm not looking for a scapegoat | ||
+ | I am...I am...I am.. the truth! | ||
+ | ==== Making People Apologize For Accusing You of Things You Actually Did ==== | ||
+ | extinction of existence pending close behind | ||
+ | burning through the wake - the desire to seize the day | ||
+ | extinction of existence pending close behind | ||
+ | burning through the wake I escape | ||
+ | Into the light through fire and nails at our backs | ||
+ | and thorns at my side and friends on fire | ||
+ | will you quench my thirst with this holy dirt? | ||
+ | living at the hour of our deaths | ||
+ | yet I strive still with god against my will | ||
+ | and thorns against my face set aflame the human race | ||
+ | Ashes in my eyes | ||
+ | Set fire to your lies | ||
+ | ==== May Be Monitored to Assure Quality Control ==== | ||
+ | Our teeth break on nails yet we chew on them still | ||
+ | as moths to a flame | ||
+ | no one is saved | ||
+ | no one still lives | ||
+ | driven by guilt and greed and numb to all extremes | ||
+ | and you want everything in arms reach | ||
+ | gorge yourself on images and promises | ||
+ | but what do you have? what do you feel? | ||
+ | what do you want besides more? | ||
+ | what is your definition of what is real? | ||
+ | who uses you and what for? | ||
+ | sculpted, written in stone: the myth of " | ||
+ | reach out for the intangible | ||
+ | chase your fantasy in to the wasteland | ||
+ | shit breeding shit - this what is left of us | ||
+ | shit breeding shit - what has become of us? | ||
+ | "give me convenience or give me death" | ||
+ | this is what rapes us, makes us and breaks us every fucking day | ||
+ | ==== Most Precious Blood ==== | ||
+ | Count me out of your aspirations | ||
+ | as I tear down your ambitions | ||
+ | no devotion, no obligation | ||
+ | as contagions fill the air | ||
+ | you've exhausted every option | ||
+ | it's time to tear you down | ||
+ | I will not surrender my soul | ||
+ | tighten the noose around our necks | ||
+ | tighten the noose around my soul... | ||
+ | ==== Never Again ==== | ||
+ | swallowed again | ||
+ | I fell in too deep | ||
+ | I reach out my hand only to fall witness to my shadows blood | ||
+ | these eyes have never betrayed | ||
+ | next time I'll know better | ||
+ | this wrong will make me right this wrong will make you right | ||
+ | I burn these memories | ||
+ | your tears feed the fire | ||
+ | my veins flood with regret | ||
+ | I can see right through you | ||
+ | I was so blind - never again | ||
+ | a bleed like a leech | ||
+ | because I was so attached | ||
+ | obsessed, a parasite to your promises | ||
+ | you broke me in two because I wouldn?t bend | ||
+ | I held on too tight | ||
+ | lost my grasp in the end - (you were never there) | ||
+ | here I am where you promised that I'd never be | ||
+ | The vacancy of my soul- tearing itself | ||
+ | never say goodbye! | ||
+ | Never again | ||
+ | I was so blind | ||
+ | ==== No ==== | ||
+ | no racism | ||
+ | no respect | ||
+ | no regret | ||
+ | no religion (no rest) | ||
+ | NO. | ||
+ | ==== No Place Like Home ==== | ||
+ | bound by inability and left to suffer the absence | ||
+ | words have failed me once again | ||
+ | attempts at completion have again left me empty | ||
+ | fate's design has forced me | ||
+ | to live without | ||
+ | and when I close my eyes I envision | ||
+ | one so undeserving of your presence | ||
+ | one who does not appreciate you as I | ||
+ | one who needs not struggle with your absence | ||
+ | ==== One Last Time ==== | ||
+ | cast me into darkness and rob me of all prosperity | ||
+ | turn myself against myself | ||
+ | try and recreate me | ||
+ | are you obsessed with possession or possessed by obsession? | ||
+ | drained absolute - still I bleed | ||
+ | screaming silent - still I bleed | ||
+ | take me for what I'm worth and let me disintegrate | ||
+ | in your arms, one last time | ||
+ | let me die where I always wanted to die | ||
+ | so I break this glass with such intent with hopes to erase all I never wanted to | ||
+ | forget | ||
+ | bleed me inside out with your eyes as I walk through your lies one last time | ||
+ | (bleed me) | ||
+ | you're gonna need more to destroy. | ||
+ | ==== Promise ==== | ||
+ | I refuse to relive my past | ||
+ | live with no discretion in my head | ||
+ | all the hours I was living | ||
+ | inside I was dead | ||
+ | I refuse to reflect upon a past that I now regret | ||
+ | because living with the past is harder than it is to forget | ||
+ | its your choice | ||
+ | discard your final chance | ||
+ | destined to die by your own hand | ||
+ | I'll bleed for my faults and I'll die for my cause | ||
+ | true in every breath to myself til my death | ||
+ | for all of the time that you wasted away | ||
+ | a year of life for every wasted day | ||
+ | a constant reminder of what I used to be | ||
+ | but you will never blind me with your negativity | ||
+ | ==== Purgatory ==== | ||
+ | we'll all suffer for what we've done | ||
+ | we pay no mind but we're all guilty | ||
+ | we were created and will be taken away just the same | ||
+ | and we'll beg and plead and wish and fade away | ||
+ | NO HEAVEN NO HELL NO HERE NO NOW | ||
+ | false sense fooled by society we've been deceived betrayed once again | ||
+ | I have taken part and for that I am at fault | ||
+ | I've lent a hand in destroying humanity | ||
+ | we'll be judged we'll be punished we'll take responsibility once and for all | ||
+ | NO HEAVEN NO HELL NO HERE NO NOW! | ||
+ | ==== Reconsider ==== | ||
+ | believed to be a revolution | ||
+ | but to most just a style | ||
+ | superiority at others exclusion | ||
+ | disdain for those defiled | ||
+ | just another form of segregation - emboldened | ||
+ | enforcing your ideals | ||
+ | step back - reconsider your position | ||
+ | step back and try to deal in something real | ||
+ | i'm not turning back to the vow i made to my soul | ||
+ | do it for yourself | ||
+ | not to assume some role | ||
+ | to shut out and segregate was not the original intent | ||
+ | it seems we've lost sight of what it once meant | ||
+ | what it once meant | ||
+ | its not a question of worth but its worth questioning... | ||
+ | ==== Release the Cure ==== | ||
+ | Our pain is profit, health is poverty | ||
+ | unveil the truth - we've swallowed lies | ||
+ | they' | ||
+ | one death is tragedy - billions the industry | ||
+ | Epidemics equal revenue | ||
+ | plugged in for life as you wear that caring disguise | ||
+ | how many more lies am I insured for? | ||
+ | we pay for research while we live in disease | ||
+ | so sick and tired as we wait...(for you to) | ||
+ | Release the cure | ||
+ | How many more lies are you prepared to sell? | ||
+ | I'll swallow another pill as I drown in my wishing well | ||
+ | searching for something more by the light of a fading torch | ||
+ | weeding us out, keeping us down - involuntary unnatural selection | ||
+ | bleed out the money before we are dead | ||
+ | force us to wait as the infection spreads | ||
+ | all this time the clock is ticking | ||
+ | this is not what you'd call living... | ||
+ | ==== Resurrection ==== | ||
+ | eternal life on earth - a resurrection | ||
+ | my resurrection | ||
+ | my blood still flows | ||
+ | I have a purpose | ||
+ | I have unfinished business | ||
+ | I was taken to early I have a dream - it was a mistake | ||
+ | I haven' | ||
+ | bring me back if just for one day | ||
+ | I have a purpose - I broke my promise | ||
+ | my dream was killed - somebody took me away | ||
+ | why? why? why? why? | ||
+ | is there life after death? | ||
+ | bring me back if just for one day | ||
+ | born again | ||
+ | betrayed again | ||
+ | ==== Safe Haven ==== | ||
+ | this time it's all over again - destroyed again and let down again | ||
+ | built up again to be torn down again | ||
+ | this time it's all over again | ||
+ | built up again to be torn down again | ||
+ | you became a memory awkward in your presence | ||
+ | that state of mind separation from devotion | ||
+ | I have no regrets except for everything | ||
+ | if I offered eternity you'd still expect more | ||
+ | run and run you'll never run far enough | ||
+ | I know where you go when you're afraid | ||
+ | ==== Samaritan ==== | ||
+ | Just a man...imperfect...vulnerable | ||
+ | why can't my words be seen for what they are | ||
+ | an expression of my ongoing struggle | ||
+ | I am not your culture | ||
+ | I am not your shelter | ||
+ | I am not your addiction | ||
+ | I am not your solution | ||
+ | running with my head down | ||
+ | the blood fills my mouth - the sting fills my eyes | ||
+ | dying to avoid the sight of the endless struggle | ||
+ | to find an end to this passion play of which we?re all a part | ||
+ | the depths we'll fall to...for the love of... | ||
+ | don?t want to carry it anymore - the weight on my shoulders | ||
+ | your hands around my neck | ||
+ | not seen as an attempt to dig deeper with myself | ||
+ | and now it's my cross to bear | ||
+ | ==== Save Me ==== | ||
+ | where did you go and where were you running to? | ||
+ | how could you not know I would come after you? | ||
+ | this comes and goes in waves and in spirals | ||
+ | nothing is permanent - nothing is final | ||
+ | Save me | ||
+ | where did you go and where were you running to? | ||
+ | and so you asked but why should I answer you? | ||
+ | that's one thing I never told anyone | ||
+ | because I'm saving that for when the end comes | ||
+ | save me | ||
+ | save me from the great white noise | ||
+ | save me from the spirals and the tides | ||
+ | save me from the passage of time | ||
+ | and save me from what I've done to myself | ||
+ | ==== Shadowboxing ==== | ||
+ | your fighting yourself - against these same walls | ||
+ | your own opposition - and you're at it again | ||
+ | in the mirror your hands clenched - it's fists against flesh | ||
+ | in the shadows in the mirrors it's deja vu again it's you once again | ||
+ | the same walls your blood shatters - it's you against you | ||
+ | what do you have to prove? - there' | ||
+ | but watch yourself fight yourself - into a corner | ||
+ | got yourself against the ropes | ||
+ | fight against yourself and you will always win | ||
+ | shadowboxing | ||
+ | kill yourself fight yourself | ||
+ | tear down the blood walls with shadowed swings | ||
+ | and you've won once again | ||
+ | fight yourself kill your self and you've won again | ||
+ | exclusive adversary personal opposition | ||
+ | but you don't realize fight yourself you'll always win | ||
+ | ==== Sharpener / Falling in Love is like Setting Yourself on Fire and Hoping You Won?t Get Burned ==== | ||
+ | I'm not a part of your life anymore | ||
+ | your life is not a part of me anymore | ||
+ | you're not a part of yourself anymore | ||
+ | your puzzle has one too many pieces | ||
+ | my veins are open awaiting incision | ||
+ | my hands are open clutching at nothing | ||
+ | and it burns me through what's become of you | ||
+ | misunderstood I've done all I could | ||
+ | cut me open - deeper still | ||
+ | the more you say the more of me you kill | ||
+ | words that cut me to the bone | ||
+ | a constant reminder of all that you?ve done | ||
+ | and it burns me through | ||
+ | knowing that there is nothing I can do | ||
+ | ==== Slave ==== | ||
+ | a slave to impulse | ||
+ | set your desire on fire | ||
+ | can't take your eyes off the flame | ||
+ | and all you dream of is fame | ||
+ | bleed the eyes that victimize - a cannibal, an animal | ||
+ | your feigned compassion slips with every word that passes your lips | ||
+ | where then where will we be when there' | ||
+ | you are not your compassion - so much thought with such little action | ||
+ | how does it feel to know that everything you can do | ||
+ | has been done before so many times before | ||
+ | how does it feel to know that everything you can say | ||
+ | has been said before so many times before | ||
+ | ==== Suspension of | ||
+ | Disbelief ==== | ||
+ | Authority is based on nothing but intimidation | ||
+ | they live to instill fear to compensate for the courage that they lack | ||
+ | their power is an illusion kept alive by those it abuses | ||
+ | and by those who sit back and watch while others suffer the subjugation | ||
+ | so I won't break and I won't bend | ||
+ | no compromises - I'm not giving them another inch | ||
+ | I won't break and I won't bend | ||
+ | their power is a fucking lie | ||
+ | it's false power - their power is nothing but a lie | ||
+ | acknowledging the power structure is the first step towards allowing it to | ||
+ | dominate you | ||
+ | by living inside the system' | ||
+ | supervised | ||
+ | constantly under their surveillance isn't it time you recognized what it means | ||
+ | to live above and outside their laws | ||
+ | by obeying your very own moral code? | ||
+ | hasn't too much time been wasted staying right where society placed you? | ||
+ | aren't our lives far too short to waste even one more minute standing in line? | ||
+ | Yes! | ||
+ | when no one fears them | ||
+ | no one respects them | ||
+ | no one runs from them | ||
+ | watch them as they disappear | ||
+ | Their power is a lie | ||
+ | ==== This Time Tomorrow ==== | ||
+ | carve your name into my chest | ||
+ | burn myself down till there' | ||
+ | concrete rushes up to meet my fading heart | ||
+ | death is the climax of all emotion | ||
+ | tear me down - let me fall | ||
+ | what we once held so dear disintegrates in our hands | ||
+ | this time tomorrow - where will I be? | ||
+ | this time tomorrow - where will you be? | ||
+ | this time | ||
+ | ==== Those Homophobic ==== | ||
+ | i keep stupidity by my side | ||
+ | i've got stupid masculine pride | ||
+ | i use hatred to express fear | ||
+ | there' | ||
+ | love as! Some church defines it! | ||
+ | Expressed! As we'd confine it | ||
+ | suffers! the undeserving | ||
+ | don't look for mercy in these eyes | ||
+ | why can't they just do whats right? | ||
+ | its not love that brought them here | ||
+ | there' | ||
+ | love is love! | ||
+ | ==== Through the Wasteland Go Searching We ==== | ||
+ | through the wasteland, forward to death | ||
+ | closer to it with every step | ||
+ | in stale air we draw a breath | ||
+ | in the midst of life we are in debt | ||
+ | and closer still with every step | ||
+ | through the wasteland forward to death | ||
+ | once we were so young and lived so carelessly | ||
+ | now through the wasteland go searching we | ||
+ | life feeds on life - as parasite to host | ||
+ | dust returns to dust | ||
+ | and in god we rust....slowly, | ||
+ | wastelands of regret like you could never imagine | ||
+ | trying hard to forget defeated aspirations | ||
+ | but each day your hands shake in fear of what comes next | ||
+ | what comes next? | ||
+ | ==== To Live and Die in New York City ==== | ||
+ | they measure success by what I possess | ||
+ | where once was a heart there' | ||
+ | are you satisfied? | ||
+ | under filthy streets - subhuman screams | ||
+ | in desperate times we live by desperate means | ||
+ | are you satisfied? | ||
+ | I said what I meant and I meant just what I said | ||
+ | New York is in flames and the sidewalk cracks are shallow graves for this stolen | ||
+ | city | ||
+ | it's burning down - then sink manhattan and let them drown | ||
+ | their hollow souls crumble against the best laid plans of rats and men | ||
+ | I DARE YOU TO BE REAL | ||
+ | to make your mark is to die face up on flaming asphalt | ||
+ | your corpse will speak for itself | ||
+ | ==== Tunnel Vision ==== | ||
+ | self preservation - the end of ambition | ||
+ | life is so long when you spend it waiting for | ||
+ | all the things you'll never be getting | ||
+ | everything you don't deserve is everything you want | ||
+ | you think you deserve everything you want | ||
+ | now you're getting older | ||
+ | your whole life is over | ||
+ | the glass stares right back - you watch yourself disappear | ||
+ | in the bathroom mirror - like so many others | ||
+ | in tunnel vision we see ourselves with eyes wide open | ||
+ | lying awake at night hating ourselves | ||
+ | for not living the life that we should have led | ||
+ | life is so long when there?s nothing worth living for | ||
+ | life is so long when there?s no one else | ||
+ | ==== Under Siege ==== | ||
+ | desparate and famished | ||
+ | scourged and suicidal | ||
+ | live and die by the sword | ||
+ | fall victim to your idols | ||
+ | tortured by despair | ||
+ | smoldering in desparation | ||
+ | suffer and burn alive in the flames of desolation | ||
+ | under siege | ||
+ | these truths are seen through the eyes of a dying world | ||
+ | the die has been cast | ||
+ | the final solution drawn | ||
+ | end this fear we?ve lived in like societies pawns with negligent abandon | ||
+ | I've watched with content eyes | ||
+ | destroying their greed | ||
+ | shatter their ambitious lies | ||
+ | these truths are seen through the eyes of a dying world | ||
+ | Victims of A Callous Society (lyrics by Justin) | ||
+ | survivors of systematic persecution continue to suffer | ||
+ | like cowards society turns away | ||
+ | it doesn' | ||
+ | driven from their homes by ethnic cleansing | ||
+ | to defend and set free we must prepare | ||
+ | the innocent are the ones who suffer | ||
+ | not the politicians who lead the debate | ||
+ | the innocent die | ||
+ | the politicians argue | ||
+ | they send out more armies to maintain the hate | ||
+ | abandon and ignore | ||
+ | the feud begins anew | ||
+ | rescue the victims of this holocaust | ||
+ | who blindly fight for pseudo-martial rights. | ||
+ | ==== What Culture? ==== | ||
+ | say your prayers and count your blessings | ||
+ | you all make me choke | ||
+ | all your pleasures all my poisons | ||
+ | talk yourself out of breath | ||
+ | outside of the spectacle you are nothing | ||
+ | a society of drones churning the rumor mill | ||
+ | you've proven nothing - you've changed nothing | ||
+ | you've done nothing - you ARE nothing | ||
+ | in small circles you are the center | ||
+ | enjoy your fame it doesn' | ||
+ | close your eyes and spread your lies | ||
+ | what culture? | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== The World is Just Another Thing in My Way ==== | ||
+ | in the name of all that?s sacred | ||
+ | all that's left will be you and I | ||
+ | faced with distress and disappointment | ||
+ | we distanced ourselves from the world | ||
+ | we both ran as far as we could but shelter was not anywhere | ||
+ | we ran in opposite directions but destiny brought us here | ||
+ | in the hours that remain speak no more of tortured days | ||
+ | this world has failed us both - together we turn away | ||
+ | in the name of all that's sacred - all that's left is you and I | ||
+ | ==== Worlds Apart ==== | ||
+ | no matter how hard I tried the words remained unspoken | ||
+ | ineloquence has caused my someday to be broken | ||
+ | uncertainty has forced me to the price | ||
+ | ruined is the first day of the rest of my life | ||
+ | overestimate your own relevance | ||
+ | crushing is the weight of your insignificance | ||
+ | selfishness is rooted in your heart | ||
+ | so proving to me that we're world?s apart | ||
+ | when I began to see with my eyes and not with my heart | ||
+ | is when I first discovered that we were worlds apart | ||
+ | Worlds apart | ||
+ | ==== You Dissolve ==== | ||
+ | watching you like this | ||
+ | tears me apart | ||
+ | you regress your feelings | ||
+ | the guilt is all mine | ||
+ | I can't forget a feeling like it meant nothing | ||
+ | torn in two as you | ||
+ | regress this frustration | ||
+ | this walls are closing in on me - my wrists feel so weak | ||
+ | this urge never overcame me so strong | ||
+ | like thorns in my eyes I hear your voice still silent in my ears | ||
+ | in dreams I smile - in consciousness I cry | ||
+ | what happened to the promises? | ||
+ | your lies and hatred | ||
+ | you shut me out | ||
+ | became what you despised magnified | ||
+ | I know it would hurt you but I wish I could just wake you up | ||
+ | you're not waking up this time | ||
+ | set yourself up for self-destruction again | ||
+ | you're not waking up |
