Pick Your Poison-Album

Labyrinth

The sunrise after this night of hell, it's a butcher, baby, massacre, a thrilling kill. Can I linger on with this pain inside me? (They'll chew you up and spit you back to hell) I see the lost wretched romance, will I ever make it, take it? Come on, give me a chance. To show the soul that's trapped inside me. (You'll have to take it from my dead hands) It's a broken record playing in my mind, you'll never know what you might find. Step into the crazy worlds I see, to see the truth inside me. The lovers end, you'll never know what you might find. (You'll never win) The time has come, and you're all alone. The sunrise after this night of hell, it's a butcher, baby, massacre, a thrilling kill. Can I linger on with this pain inside me? (They'll chew you up and spit you back to hell) I see the lost wretched romance, will I ever make it, take it? Come on, give me a chance. To show the soul that's trapped inside me. (You'll have to take it from my dead hands) The lost may never come home, they'll have to find their way out, all on their own. They'll try to break me, but I'll make my stand. They'll have to take it from my cold, dead hands. A sinner's masterpiece (his masterpiece) Will never be complete, can I do this? Can I live this lie? Will I beat this? Can I ever win this fight? Can I make it through this cold dark night? Don't try to stop me, cause I need to make this right. Can I do this? Can I live this lie? Can I beat this? Can I ever win this fight? Can I make it through this cold dark night? Don't try to stop me, cause I need to make this right. The sunrise after this night of hell. (Can I do this? Can I live this lie?) It's a butcher, baby, massacre, a thrilling kill. (will I beat this? Can I ever win this fight?) Can I linger on with this pain inside me? (Can I make it through this cold dark night?) (Don't try to stop me, cause I need to make this right) I see the lost wretched romance. (The lost may never come home) Will I ever make it, take it? Come on, give me a chance. To show the soul that's trapped inside me. (They'll have to take it from my cold dead hands) 

Starting Over

It will be alright! Starting over, it will kill me. Bring me back to times we had. It's far too late, and I cannot wait any longer. And it's killing me. It's been one dark year, and you grow older, older, older. And I hope I get closer, wiser and stronger. But I'll see you soon, one day you will find you were always on my mind. And I think of you. I'll cross a burning bridge and I'll always be with you. It will be alright. The pieces come together and they form a perfect picture, I'll win this fight! I'll cross the seven seas and you'll always be with me. Baby, don't cry tonight. My only sin was saying goodbye, all those times. I drove away and cried, and lied, and said I'd be alright. Baby, don't cry tonight. My only sin was saying goodbye, all those times. I drove away and cried, and lied and said I'd be alright. Alright! In my dreams, I see her face. She looks at me. That's as close as they will let me be. Just a memory, it will turn real. Eventually, I don't care what they do, cause nothing can stop me. Baby, don't cry tonight. My only sin was saying goodbye, all those times. I drove away and cried, and lied, and said I'd be alright. Baby, don't cry tonight. My only sin was saying goodbye, all those times. I drove away and cried, and lied, and said I'd be alright. Starting over, it will kill me. Bring me back to times we had!

I'll Get You Next Time Gadget!

One lie to soften the fall, it shows you never cared at all. The burn, it still flickers inside. The fire that will never die. My soul needs to breathe! My heart needs to scream! My shivering cry, I'm empty inside. I'll let it go for now, the vengeful curse of karma will come around. The thought of you is a disgusting mess, tell me the truth freaking confess. It's taking me so long, I thought I could be more strong. You screamed the deceiving cry, goodnight sweet baby get ready to die. I'm a nightmare, not a dream! I'm the terror at the murder scene, that you see when you close your eyes! Goodnight, sweet baby, get ready to die. Die, die, die. It's taking me so long, I thought I could be more strong. You screamed the deceiving cry, goodnight sweet baby, get ready to die. I'll let it go for now, the vengeful curse of karma will come around. The thought of you is a disgusting mess. Tell me the truth, freaking confess. Confess, confess, confess. I got a knife stuck in my back, now I see. I had a beautiful dream you took from me, in the end we got a wonderful prize. I see the beauty in her navy blue eyes, I got a knife stuck in my back, now I see. I had a beautiful dream you took from me, in the end we got a wonderful prize. I see the beauty in her navy blue eyes, we make these rounds! (Hey blue eyes) And now what's left? (her blue eyes) You took my heart, (eyes) and now I'll take this all back. I got a knife in my back, now I see. I had a beautiful dream, you took from me. In the end, we got a wonderful prize. I see the beauty in her navy blue eyes. I got a knife stuck in my back, now I see. I had a beautiful dream, you took from me. In the end, we got a wonderful prize. I see the beauty in her navy blue eyes. Her blue eyes.

This Isn't Blackmail This Is War

As they say go to the river of darkness, and you bleed my heart. And we could never just stop, running around in circles. And you bleed my heart. (My heart, my heart) And we can run again, it's time to pretend. And I can guess again, which one you are. You screamed the words of deception, I won't give to your games. Your thoughts, your words are your weapons. You and I are so not the same. Just go, nice sweater *****, you took the best of me, my head is hung in shame. Move on from your oppression, move on and start again. You took the best of me, my head is hung in shame. Move on from your oppression, move on and start again. You run in circles, and I could see not forever more, you tried to fool us. Pretend to be something that you're not. You are the last one with no humility, you are a freaking disgrace, with no humility. You are the last one with no humility, you are a freaking disgrace, with no humility. Oh this is the end!

Snowmegeddon

Why do we die alone? If I died in your arms tomorrow, would you know what I lived for today? The end of time is taking over, as the memory fades away. The voices scream inside my head, driving me insane. Their haunted whispers say I'll soon be dead, the endless crushing pain. The rush, it's tough, I've had enough, I simply can not stay. I can't end my life at home. I just need to run away, I need to die alone. Go! The light is fading, yet getting brighter. The flesh is cold now but I'm feeling warmer, the end has come but now I feel stronger. The final breath, it was painful but now it is over! The voices scream inside my head, driving me insane. Their haunted whispers say I'll soon be dead. The endless crushing pain. The rush, it's tough, I've had enough, I simply can not stay. I can't end my life at home. I just need some time to run away, I need to die alone. Bleed! My time it is fading to nothing, and I need to walk away from this. Home where I've been for so long, my time it is fading to nothing. And I need to walk away from this, home is where I've been for so long. Why do we die alone? I need to do this on my own, I need to leave this home. Until my body turns to stone, I need to die alone.

Bob Cox Lives In Ohio

Let's get this show on the road, you know I've been waiting so long just to go. I never thought it would be this hard, the constant liars that fake it, didn't say I would make it. They've been saying it from the start, but it's alright. I won't stop until I hit the streets, and it's been so wild. The time will comes and they'll be watching me, we came together not knowing our names. To tell you the truth, I really can't complain. The downfalls and the two-faced friends. They'll never change, not even in the end. Bringing us down putting out our flames, but when we're through, we'll burn this whole freaking place. I'm not ashamed (I'm not ashamed) My heart is on this one way train, I'm on my way, I'm on my way. Back to the top, you better watch your place. I'm not ashamed, my heart is on this one way train. I'm on my way, I'm on my way. Back to the top, watch your place. Following our dreams and breaking hearts, that's how we've always done it from the start. The downfalls and the two faced friends, they'll never change not even in the end. Bringing us down putting out our flames, but when we're through we'll burn this whole freaking place will go up in flames. The time will come, we'll be at the top again. The stars will fall and I'll watch them crash and burn, and we won't stop until they all return. I'm not ashamed, my heart is on this one way train. I'm on my way (I'm on my way) Back to the top, you better watch your place. I'm not ashamed, I'm not ashamed. My heart is on this one way train. I'm on my way. Back to the top, you better watch your place.

Two Faced Charade-Album

Welcome To The Show

At the stories beginning, starts a sad mystery. A talk that's sure to stain dark history, a tale that's sure to stain dark history. My eyes are gazing window shades are open wide, I sit back in pure awe at the girl that will change my life. She'll never know, she will never expect. I'm watching, admiring in secret. She'll never know, she will never expect. I'm watching, admiring in secret. While she sits there all alone, on her own she can't defend. I'm watching in, I'm watching in, like an arcane guardian. I spy with my wretched eye, she's like a drug that intensifies. Demented minds, but I will strive, to have her forever by my side. Forever mine. You're lost and lonely, it's ordinary. You stalk and you stare, she's my new neighbor. Obsessed it's scary, can you blame me. Your logic's hazy, I'm not crazy. She'll never know, she will never expect. The nightmare that is up on stage next. While she sits there all alone, on her own she can't defend. I'm watching in, I'm watching in, like an arcane guardian. I spy with my wretched eye, she's like a drug that intensifies. Demented minds, but I will strive. To have her forever by my side, to have her forever by my side. I'm watching in, I'm watching in, (she'll never know) I'm watching in (she will never expect) I'm watching in.

Victim Of The Virtuoso

Into the night, you disappear in the fog. But know that won't oppress us, ignorantly stroll along. Cause your innocence is what I thrive on, what I thrive on. Anything in life worth fighting for, it makes you think of what you'd do for for it and more. Cause if you had your vital prize, you'd be in perfect paradise. Which is why I follow her, this perfect girl. Which is why I follow her, this perfect girl. Which is why I follow her, follow her. This night I stray from all uncertainty (uncertainty) Do my actions clear, my slate of purity (That's in me) If I sit back and let it be, I'll never know true harmony. So it's time I cut these chains, and set myself free. (Set myself free) Set me free, so everyone out in this crowd. Have you ever felt taken down, let the rage build up inside. So forget it, just throw it down. Just throw it down, anything in life worth fighting for. It makes you think of what you'd do for it and more. Cause if you had your vital prize, you'd be in perfect paradise. Which is why I follow him, this perfect boy. Which is why I follow him, this perfect boy. Because he makes my new world, this perfect boy. Because he makes my new world, this perfect boy. I'll follow him. I'll lurk along in the darkness, and fantasize of what he means to me. (There's a boy, he's taken my heart from me) (There's a boy, he's taken my heart from me) Can't you see, that he's perfect for this scene. And he'll always be better then the rest and I must confess that I've meant every word I've said. Can't you see, that he's perfect for this scene. And he'll always be better then the rest, and I must confess that I've meant every word I've said. Can't you see, that he's perfect for this scene. And he'll always be better then the rest, and I must confess that I've meant every word I've said. Can't you see, that's perfect for this scene. And he'll always be better then the rest, and I must confess that I've meant every word I've said. He's like a sickness, secret mister let me be. Just like a drug I'm having with-drawls on my knees. I'm screaming. He's like a sickness, secret mister let me be. Just like a drug I'm having with-drawls on my knees, I'm screaming. Please my darling, let me freaking be. The absence of your presence, know it's killing me. So now it's time I cut these chains and set myself free.

The Relentless

Jeremy, just stop, and breathe, open your eyes and see. A cold blooded monster born from pure jealously, the wants and needs of a sick savage beast. An unquenchable thirst for this romantic scene, to play the lead the star of your love story. House lights are fading, you keep me waiting. House lights are fading, I'm waiting here, I'm waiting for the show. Maybe I'll wait to see, the possibilities that are awaiting. Maybe there's a light at the end of this tunnel (I'm running down) Stuck on repeat, like an eternity of a never ending sleep. Infinite dreams, so goes the cycle. (I'm hopeful) This can't be, a crushing pain that's in my chest. I must protest these feelings, this is all an atrocity. And everyone can tell right from the start, there's bound to be a broken heart. I'll break their heart, you cast the parts, it's plain to see. I'm just an extra as he takes the lead. The curtains rise to reveal act one, the first scene starts the tragedy to come. And everyone can tell right from the start, there's bound to be a broken heart. I'll break their heart, and everyone can tell right from the start. There's bound to be a broken heart, I'll break their heart. Maybe I'll wait to see, the possibilities are awaiting. Maybe there's a light at the end of this tunnel (I'm running down) Stuck on repeat, like an eternity of a never ending sleep. Infinite dreams, so goes the cycle. (I'm hopeful) Post dramatic, psychopathic rush. (rush, rush, rush) This must be a dream, will I awaken from this nightmare that has taken a hold of me. My sanity has eluded me, it makes me wanna scream. It makes me wanna scream.

Voices

My newfound courage thrives but it is trapped inside, my cautious mind. I've got to test my luck and overcome this, and maybe if I try I may succeed to fail. But if I don't try, I will always fail to succeed and prevail. He's going out to hit the town, I'll follow him, stare through the window, there he is. (He's intimidating perfect) But did my eyes deceive me? He was not alone. (This cannot be) This cannot be, must be a dream. I can't bear this harsh reality, this can't be the end of my story. He's my only destiny, (the end of my story) we must create our own fate. I'll take his heart before it's too late. (Mysterious, unwelcome guest) Who the heck is this, he was not alone. He was not alone. He strokes her hair, he moves in close. She doesn't care, I'm losing hope. Pretentious freak, expired luck. I'll finish her, pretentious freak. Disgraceful, vile, evil, worthless piece of ****. Who the heck is this?! (This cannot be) This cannot be, must be a dream. I can't bear this harsh reality, this can't be the end of my story. He's my only destiny (the end of my story) We must create our own fate, I'll take his heart now before it's too late. Stop this now, I can't handle this **** anymore! She has to pay for all this pain, I'll take her six feet under the freaking ground! (The freaking ground!) Maybe she'll get crushed and never be found, maybe she will fall or maybe she will drown. Either way, I'm sure to take her down. This cannot be, must be a dream. I can't bear this harsh reality, this can't be the end of my story. He's my only destiny (the end of my story) We must create our own fate, I'll take his heart before it's too late. (This cannot be) This cannot be, must be a dream.

Lust Of The Lost

There comes a time when all else fails, he puts pressure on me, how can I prevail? This weight I carry keeps piling on, she is not the one love blinds what's right from wrong. What's right from wrong. Watch their lust, it sparks alive and it tears me up inside. I'll admit I'm terrified, jealousy is my new guide. I must reside, I must abide. Live out my life caught in a lie, but I might die, if I don't try. I try to find as I search my mind, will you take her hand and leave me behind? The isle clears as my hope illudes, she's burning through my freaking solitude. Watch their lust, it sparks alive. And it tears me up inside, I'll admit I'm terrified, jealousy is my new guide. I must reside, I must abide. Live out my life caught in a lie, but I might die, if I don't try, try. I'm so sick of this romantic tragedy! (this tragedy) I'm plunging head first to insanity! (insanity) She's come to stay and I never said that it was okay. Her broken words won't make this right, I can see straight through all of her lies. This can't be real, I don't care how she makes him feel. This is not her place and in my case, she can pack up and get out of my face. Watch their lust, it sparks alive. And it tears me up inside, I'll admit I'm terrified. Jealousy is my new guide. I must reside, I must abide. Live out my life, caught in a lie. But I might die, if I don't try. Dir young, can we stop this wedding? You are not his other, I'm his only one. Back off, she holds him safe and sound. Even now, while he's caught in her whisper. 

Legends And Legacies

Well, welcome in. To my home, it's your grave, a stage to set my sins. And I will win, you can tell by the grin on my face as the knife digs in. This is all part of my master plan, this is my justice served, fight back just as hard as you can! This night reveals the woman I really am! A shade of red stained on my hands, I strike again!

And you cry please (please) enough (enough) This town ain't big enough for the both of us. You see (you see) you're dead (you're dead) to me. You're a freaking dead to me. Horror, she will fall from the light. Reborn in horror, it serves her freaking right, burn!

To Play Hide And Seek With Jealousy

It started out as one love one passion, now it's bursting out into a chain reaction. (My sinful deeds I will never confess) This dead will make out to be a useless witness, this is just what we wanted. Which is why it feels so right, cut slice, dig as deep as you can. Look int his hands, and know her blood is on your hands. My lead is the reaper, and my anger is my scythe. Together we will make this life, (together we will) hide and seek, a sick game of destiny. And this round you will never win, (you know you'll never find her) Here we go, count to ten let's start the show. Where you've gone he will never know, cut throat executioner. I aspire to survive, it's a case of an unsolved murder. Baby, now you're all mine. No services, coffin, no hearse. I'll find a place to hide her corpse, under the world, bury my secrets, evidence will burn. The deed is done I've lost my mind, last sense of my conscience starts to fade and die. Under the world, are the sins committed for this boy. This girl who died it's justified, she's out of sight, now you're all mine. Now you're all mine. Hide and seek, a sick game of destiny. And this round you will never win, (you know you'll never find her) Here we go, count to ten let's start the show. Where you've gone, he will never know. Woah-oh-ohh-ohh, I'm a savior, I'm a sinner. I'm a sick cold hearted killer, I'm a lover I'm a winner. And I'd do it all to steal him, from a life he thinks he wants. But I know he would regret, living life without another girl. And now she's freaking dead, I'm a sinner I'm a sinner. I'm a sick cold hearted killer, I'm a lover I'm a winner. And I'd do it all to steal him, from a life he thinks he wants. But I know he would regret, living life without another girl. And now she's freaking dead, it's sadistic, it's pathetic. So simplistic, it's poetic. It's ironic, so psychotic. And I really really want it, so I took what I deserve. And I said he well forget the price. So I cut her into pieces, took my demons own advice. Now you're all mine. Go, look for your lover. If you keep searching she will show up dead. I am the murderer, you will never see her pretty face again, never again.

Even A Ghost Has A Sanctuary

What have you done? (done, done) Alone in the dark, I walk into your bedroom. The blood and the knife that you used to condemn her to her tomb. (her tomb) This darkness has overcome your common sense, be honest impulsive actions made a mess. This darkness's like a fire burning red, so vicious a heartless monster, not a person. How could you call me a freaking monster, (a monster) After everything I've done for you, baby don't scream. You know I did this all for you and me. Now just say you forgive me and that you are happy, you're driving me crazy. You've driven me crazy. Don't scream, you know I did this all for me. Now just freaking forgive me, you better be happy. You're driving me crazy, you've driven me crazy. This darkness has overcome your common sense, be honest impulsive actions made a mess. This darkness's like a fire burning red. So vicious, a heartless monster, not a person. Now just close your eyes, stop and listen to what you're saying. Never say goodbye, you're scaring me. Innocence will die, what have you done to my friend? You are not her, this face is my disguise. You're scaring me. Don't lose your head, keep your smile. Pull it together just for awhile, my darling, don't let go at all, not ever, no. Don't be afraid, open your eyes. You may be in for a surprise, the light is closer than it may seem. You will never leave me, you will never be with anyone else. This darkness is hollow, your pride you will swallow whole. Or it will be the end of you, so bite your tongue, you will stay strong. Or a lifeless, worthless corpse you will become. One kiss, be forever my mister. 

The Show Must Go On Part 1

I must accept these consequences for my actions. When all I did was what the world told me I should do, and do anything for my dreams, if I only knew. The cost of my dreams, AKA, you would be you. I'm dead now. The nightmare is slowly taking over all that's happened, it is enabling him to take exactly what she wants. Until she gets what she desires, we'll be at her whim. My inner demon, she is screaming at me take him now. This is your only chance, won't get another, don't let me down. Don't freaking whine, the deed is done, you'll be just fine. So you want true romance? Roll the dice, take a chance. Why won't you let me in, just let me in. We'll masquerade this awkward phase that we're stuck in, if you accept me and forever be by my side. Remember what I said, every day's a new sunrise. So let's just act, pretend like this never happened. I'm your arcane guardian, just let me in. You know our love is caught in your eyes, and those hazel eyes. They terrorize, they terrorize. My inner demon, she is screaming at me, take him now. This is your only chance, won't get another, don't let me down. Don't freaking whine, the deed is done you'll be just fine. So you want true romance, roll the dice, take a chance. Don't let me down, if I can't have you I will never be found. (never be found) It's sure to kill me, if you leave me. So I'll leave you gagged and bound. I won't reside, never abide. (tell me why) Won't live my life caught in a lie, baby don't scream. Don't scream. You are not alone, her arms are not your new home. Now just close your eyes, you will never say goodbye. Baby, don't scream. You know I did this all for you and me. (tell me why) Don't freaking scream, you know I did this all, just for me. You know our love is caught in your eyes, and those hazel eyes. They terrorize, they terrorize. Don't let me down, if I can't have you I will never be found. (never be found) It's sure to kill me, if you leave me. So I'll leave you gagged and bound. I won't reside, never abide. (tell me why) Won't live my life caught in a lie. 

The Show Must Go On Part 2

There's no escape, from this place. But somehow you unlocked all the chains, paralyzed in authentic fear. Cause I'm insane, and I'm deranged. You mustn't share twisted affairs, with all your peers. So I'll push you down the stairs, and I'll hide you down in the dark for years. This cannot be, it must be a dream. (More like a corrupted nightmare) I can't bare this harsh reality. (This can't be the end of my story) He's my only destiny (can't be the end of my story) We must create, our own fate. I took his life, now it's too late. This cannot be, it must be a dream. I can't bare this harsh reality. He's my only destiny, I watched their lust, it sparked alive. And it tore me up inside, I will admit I'm terrified. Let jealousy serve as my guide, I can't reside I can't abide. Can't live my life caught in this lie. So I must die, goodbye goodbye goodnight.

Council Of The Dead-Album

Rest, rest in peace, dear deceased and tell us all your stories. Scream, shout, let it out. (scream, shout, let it out) It's hard to make a sound when you're all fallen asleep. Caught in dream far from reality. Scream, shout, let it out. (Scream, shout, let it out) Cause it's all over now. Understand, open your eyes and you'll see. I'm not here to judge you and I'm not here to preach, my role here is to guide you as we search through your past. So let's all get started, we're together at last.

The Fog

When she was young her mind was pure and free, an ambitious girl, with ambitious dreams. Who knew that she'd grow up to be, trapped in her mind, a detainee. Just like a ship lost at sea, she lost her faith, lost all belief. No shred of hope of ever returning, just close your eyes, trapped in a fog she realized. This is her demise, she's practically paralyzed. This sickness conditions, and all of the symptoms. Prescriptions can't fix this, this horrible illness. Wind starts to blow, the rain pours as the waves crash below. The beacons glow, fades away as she fights the undertow. This storm is encroaching, her mind that's eroding. The fog comes in flowing, the storm is approaching. (The fog) She can't see through this haze, confusion, delusions, her mind's in a daze. Can't recognize a face, no memories of loved ones not even a trace. She's ready to go and you can see it in her face. (She's moving on) She will escape this maze, and conquer the haze, she's no longer afraid. The thunder's crashing and clouding up your head. Your thoughts and your memories dissolve and the water's turning red. No weather warning nobody could predict, the forecast, the anguish, the suffering, she's sick. The storm, walls, they won't bring her down. She'll find her way out past the clouds. She'll rise up and never be drowned, determined to rout her way out. (Of this fog) She can't see through this haze, confusion, delusion, her mind's in a daze. Can't recognize a face, no memories of loved ones not even a trace. She's ready to go and you can see it in her face. (She's moving on) She will escape this maze, and conquer the haze, she's no longer afraid. No, she's no longer afraid. The storm, walls, they won't bring her down. She'll finder way out past the clouds, she'll rise up and never be drowned. Determined to rout her way out, of this freaking fog! She can't see through this haze, confusion, delusions, her mind's in a daze. Can't recognize a face, no memories of loved one, not even a trace. She's ready to go and you can see it in her face (she's moving on) She will escape this maze, and conquer the haze, she's no longer afraid.

Hell In The Headlights

Crash, the impact that took my life. But, what happened to the little girl still trapped inside? Did she make it out alive? Did she survive? The headlights showed me the light, lit the tunnel down the road to my demise. All we went for was a little drive, who knew that it would be the last time? You spread these lies, just another way to justify. That our lives are gone and we must move on, but that is not alright. All I needed was a little time and all I wanted was to say goodbye. Well, I can't move on, this is all so wrong and I will not comply. My life's decaying! But, what happened to the little girl still trapped inside. Did she make it out of there alive? Did she survive? I accept the path that's chosen for me. But leave my girl alone, she has a life to lead. Don't mercy me, no sympathy! Don't take her life, God just take me. My life is fading, you spread these lies, just another way to justify. That out lives are gone and we must move on, but that is not alright. All I needed was a little time, and all I wanted was to say goodbye. Well, I can't move on, this is all so wrong and I will not comply. The fire's blazing, I hear her cry. God, don't forsake me. Don't let her die! Another victim of a DUI. Murder, a freaking homicide. You can save her life tonight, don't let her die! You spread, spread these lies. Just another way to justify. You spread these lies, just another way to justify. That our lives are gone and we must move on, but that is not alright. All I needed was a little time, and all I wanted was to say goodbye. Well, I can't move on, this is all so wrong and I will not comply. I'll beg and I'll plead (and I'll plead) I'll do whatever it takes, God please just promise me. (promise me) She'll be (she'll be) safe without hr father, promise me. She won't understand, she won't believe. She'll wonder where I've gone and why I had to leave. She'll be told that her daddy's gone away to a place in the sky, that's where I'll stay. In the night, she will meet me in her dreams. That's as close as we will ever be. I'll whisper in hr ear and I will say "Daddy loves you, everything's okay" (everything's okay) 

Brother's In Arms

The fire falls down from the sky, the order's in. And we'll be bringing them the fight, God bless my brother back home with my father. Give me the strength to beat this night, sweat, ache, blistering heat. Pain in each step I take with my bleeding feet, this air it's so hard to breathe. Through the dust and the smoke and the torrid debris. Marching forward, towards the murder. These homes are breaking, the ground and the walls are shaking. I hear children cry, no time for goodbyes. So I hold my head high, as the fire fall down from the sky. Fire falls down from the sky. And the blast consumes, fire ignites and burns our flesh. As we face our doom, never to see our homes again. And we struggle and strive, in the fight to stay alive. And the hope that we'll survive, will we make it through the night. I'll be going down, but I'll take them out. Insurgents are all around, they're burning the world to the ground. But if I'm going down, I will take them out. Slums these poor homes, are now our war zones. Together we're marching forward, towards the murder. These homes are breaking, the ground and the walls are shaking. I hear children cry, no time for goodbyes. So I hold my head high, as the fire falls down from the sky. My brother's beside me, (beside me) are strong and not one is breaking. We stand side by side, we fight or we die. And we hold our heads high, as the fire falls down from the sky. We die, we fight or we die. 

The Killing Zone

This is the killing zone! All of the guns, drugs, hard thugs out on the street. They'll never see, they won't believe I'll make a name for myself. No good, young blood is what they're all calling me. Misunderstood, I'm just a lost soul, lost like everyone else. The pressure is pressuring me, to prove to them that I can be, father if you could see me now. You'd see the man I am and you would be so proud. I'll take it all, I will take everything. Clean out that one stop shop stock, I guarantee. I'll be on top of the world, I'll be invincible. The pressure is pressuring me, this is who I am meant to be. This is the killing zone. I'll take it all, I will take everything. Clean out that one stop shop stock, I guarantee. I'll be on top of the world, I'll be invincible. They followed me into the streets, I turn around in disbelief. The window's down what do I see? Shotgun, cocked, pointing at me. The streets are unforgiving, they shoot to kill, nowhere to flee. Eye for an eye decisions, I stole from them, so they've come for me. The streets are so unforgiving, the pressure is pressuring me. The streets are so unforgiving, this was always my destiny. I took it all, yeah I took everything. Cleaned out that one stop shop stock, now look at me. A rooting corpse on the street, a wasted life I leave. This is the killing zone! 

Fading Memories

Cook it up just to numb the pain, pull the belt in a search to find my last vein. Like a felon in for life, I'm wasting away. It's the only think in life that keeps my mind sane, but was it worth the consequences? It numbs the hurt, it numbs the pain! Cause in the end I lost a friend who died in vain. I could never get enough to heal the pain, it all went wrong, he was left defenseless. He should not have died, it should be me. But now I see that if I believed in something (Believe in something) We'd be alive, but now we're nothing. But it made me feel, it set me free. It cloaked the pain that tortured me. It made me blind, I couldn't see. The only one to blame was me. It was my selfish lies (selfish lies) That caused the end of his life, and now he's gone and so are we. We're all just fading memories destined to fail, sink back as the drugs take way. Through my veins, I feel my life begin to fade. What's done is done and it ain't ever gonna change, it's the only think in life that keeps me sane. My skin turns pale as the drugs destroy my soul within, it's poison, complete bittersweet, defeat I'll never win, I'll give in. Let go of the life I wish I never began! This man is sick so I ask myself, well what if I believe in something? We'd be alive, but now we're nothing. (Now we're nothing) But it made me feel, it set me free. It cloaked the pain that tortured me, it made me blind, I couldn't see. The only one to blame was me. It was my selfish lies (selfish lies) that caused the end of his life, and now he's gone and so are we. We're all just fading memories destined to fail, (destined to fail) I'm falling faster, gaining speed to a fate I can't believe. I'm a disaster, a one way ticket to hell made just for me. I'm sorry mother, I'm not the man that you thought that I would be. Now it's all over, he's awaiting me. 

The Uprise

And we've been set free, from the grip of isolation. From the torment of corrupt, and immoral sovereignty. They brought us peace at, at a price so unforgiving. So we commend their selfless deeds, cause now we're finally living! We, we won't let go. (no) And we will stand up, round up everyone that we know. And we will gather young and old to fight this war, they gave us hope (hope) so we will stand proud cast out hatred from our homes, we will never let go. They fell as they choked, on their own words, our heroes put them all to shame. In their places, cowering in disgrace. You read the stories through our scars, these wounds will dictate who we are, no more! No more! Break out of this implacable ruthless hold, eager to live so we'll finally take control. Enough of the despicable, savage **** Malevolent, it's time to stand up and fight this. We hold our homes, and destroy the evil! We, we won't let go! (no!) And we will stand up, round up everyone that we know. And we will gather young and old to fight this war, they gave us hope. (hope) So we will stand proud cast out hatred from our homes, we will never let go. Dear heroes, before you arrived, we were sad and afraid. We thank you for your sacrifice. Your deaths won't be in vain, after the torture and pain that we had to underground. We want you all to know, they can break our bones. They can't beat us, whip us, throw stones. But they can't break our souls, they can try but they'll be unable. To have our lives, our existence and our freedom, we won't back down. And we'll never be defeated, we will rise. We, we won't let go (no) And we will stand up, round up everyone that we know. And we will gather young and old to fight this war. They gave us hope (hope) So we will stand proud cast out hatred from our homes. We will never let go. The devoted and strong will always live on.

My Life Before My Eyes

I lie here waiting, for one of my sons to walk right through my door. But no one's coming, cause everyone I've loved is lost, I'm on my own. My greatest fear is here and I don't want to die alone. I want my family, they always said they needed me but I need them more. It's getting harder to breathe and I feel the cold, and it's taking over. (I see) I see my friends and family and my boys are by my side. Before it all went all went wrong, before the both of them had died. And I will try just to go back to a time when I knew I had it all, I'd give anything to have them here beside me. But that'll never be, I'm all alone. Dear God, how did this happen to me? You left me with no purpose, and left them both to bleed. They killed me boy at home, and the other overseas. So now, I'm left to rot alone and die in this hospital. If they could both just be here now, I'd let them know before I go I'm so damn proud. But they are never coming home, so now I'm left to rot alone and die in this hospital. Give it up, surrender. (surrender) Let it all subside, there's no one by your side. You'll never, you'll never win this battle within. (battle within) Your time has come, your body's going numb. Now give in, now give in, now give in. (I see) I see my friends and family and my boys are by my side. Before it all went wrong, before the both of them had died. And I will try just to go back to a time when I knew I had it all, I'd give anything to have them here beside me. But that'll never be, I'm all alone. My skin goes cold as I'm barely breathing. My body's done, I've lost all control. I want my sons right here beside me, but now they're both gone. And I don't want to die alone. I'm starting to feel my vitals failing, I'm drifting away to the dark unknown, death sinks in as it overcomes me. My greatest fear is here I don't want to die alone, as the last beat of my old heart subsides. The doctors call the time, it looks like I've died alone.

One In The Chamber

I was a living soul just like the rest of you, a normal guy working nine to five. Keeping up with the bills, because my mother was ill. I lost track of time, she lost her freaking mind. Eventually, she died! I was broken and petrified, so I drank the medicine tonight. Bottoms up, here's to my cruddy life. Where have all my morals gone? Washed away with the bottle, how did this all go wrong? (it all went wrong) It wasn't my intention, but there's no redemption. For those who take away the lives of innocent, I'm inebriated I'm dangerous I can't, I can't live on. So there's one in the chamber, just waiting for me to end it all. I drank my sorrows down and poisoned my soul to the core, I drove away that dreadful night. Couldn't take this life not anymore. Behind the wheel, the tunnel vision I couldn't see them. 85 through the intersection, my sick transgression, I freaking killed him! I saw the blood, what had I done? Where have all my morals gone? Washed away with the bottle, how did this all go wrong? (it all went wrong) It wasn't my intention, but there's no redemption. For those who take away the lives of innocent. I'm inebriated, I'm dangerous, I can't, I can't live on. So there's one in the chamber, just waiting for me to end it all. It's come to this, a pen and paper, a loaded gun. I can't live on another day with everything that I've done. Dark has taken all control, the accident had a consequence, I took a father from his girl! And God can't even save my soul. This life I live is barely living, hollow man, I have no feelings. Burn in fires down below. It's just what I deserve, cause I am evil and despicable. One shot ready to go, I put my finger on the trigger, life I want mine to be over. Where have all my morals gone? Washed away with the bottle. How did this all go wrong? (it all went wrong) It wasn't my intention, but there's no redemption. For those who take away the lives of innocent. I'm inebriated, I'm dangerous, I can't, I can't live on. So there's one in the chamber, just waiting for me to end it all. (end it all) There's one in the chamber just waiting for me to end it all. End it all! My mother is gone so I guess I'll just leave this is for whoever finds me. All I can really say is I'm sorry, I can't live with myself what have I done? I can't take the guilt, and the pain the emptiness. It's all just too much, I'm hollow. I can't take life anymore.

The End Of The Beginning

The stories told, the truth unfolds. Try to remember my darling souls, look deep into the eyes of the soul that sits across the room. And start to recognize their face, they'll start to recognize yours too. Reunited friends and family, your souls I've gathered here. A second chance is your gift my friends. Oh, no, you mustn't fear. Cause this is not the end, it's time now to transcend. And start another journey, or go back to amend the life you lived before. You know it's always been up to you, so now it's time for you to choose. Cause this is not the end, it's time now to transcend and start another journey. Or go back to amend the life you life before, you know it's always been up to you. So now it's time for you to choose, cause this is not the end. It's time now to transcend and start another journey. Or go back to amend the life you lived before, you know it's always been up to you. So now it's time for you to choose, cause this is not the end. It's time now to transcend, and start another journey. Or go back to amend, the life you lived before. You know it's always been up to you, so now it's time for you to choose. Cause this is not the end, it's time now to transcend, and start another journey.

The Incubus-Album

Trophy Wife

August 21st, 1953. Let's set the scene. The table's set with the silver cutlery, the crystal's out for the champagne chardonnay. To celebrate the anniversary of 9 years ago, when he came back home. Please come in and take a seat, you're all on cue, the party's just beginning. He's right inside, our proud marine. Man of the hour, reason that we've all convened. Let me propose a toast, to a husband and a father. Brave, he gave us hope. His absence tortured me, can just imagine all the evil that he has seen? I watch him while he dreams, he stays asleep through the sweats and the screams! It's haunting him, so it's haunting me! So I'll just take my perfect smile and just let it be. The table's set with the silver cutlery, the crystal's out for the champagne chardonnay. To celebrate 9 years ago when he came back home, and now when he leaves on business trips and meetings. It makes me feel sick and incomplete, our boy needed his father home, I was on my own, disunited home. His charming smile, it's hypnotic, pleasantry. Either that or maybe too much wine, tingles up my spine and makes my body weak. Intoxicating. I'm feeling jaded, overjoyed I know it shows I hope they all can see. Preeminence in this life we lead, captivated by the love that we share I hope they all can see. The table's set with the silver cutlery, the crystal's out for the champagne chardonnay. To celebrate the anniversary, of 9 years ago when he came back home. And now when he leaves on business trips and meetings, it makes me feel sick and incomplete. Our boy needed his father home, I was on my own, disunited home. Intoxicating. I'm feeling jaded, overjoyed, dumb and giddy, and a little dizzy. The rom is spinning and it's making me. Feel faint, faded fall to the floor make a scene. With all the eyes in the room, I sure hope that no one can see. 

Pretty In Porcelain

I stand alone in the dark, I feel glued cause I can't move. My heart it pounds in my chest, fast as he take his first step into the room. My stomach drops deeply, his eager eyes they stare undressing me. I'm nauseous so sickly, am I dead, am I dreaming? Oppressive caressing, paralyzed gotta wake up from this nightmare misery. But the nightmare's not over, so it's only just begun. As he starts to arrange me, does it all for fun? (I'll have you know) I'm not a game you can play, freaking doll to manipulate. His fingers feel like blades as they run my thighs, he paints my face, he changes my dress, I'm ready for his night. But no through my eyes, I'm stuck imprisoned and paralyzed. Count to three, open my eyes and see. The world around me is still a nightmare, I gotta wake up from this dream. What could it be this vision's trying to tell me? I can't see it clearly, feel it try to break me. With his touch I feel the burn of a thousand suns, I try to scream, I try to move but I just can't run. He's playing with me like a porcelain doll, but there's nothing I can do. I just feel so small, makeup running down my face. From the tears and the sweat, I feel so disgraced. As he dresses and undresses me, I fear I may die. Wake up, wake up, wake up. But the nightmare's not over, so it's only just begun. As he starts to arrange me, does it all for fun? (I'll have you know) I'm not a game you can play, a freaking doll to manipulate. His fingers feel like blades as they run up my thighs, he paints my face, he changes my dress, I'm ready for his night. But not through my eyes, I'm stuck imprisoned and paralyzed. I'm stuck imprisoned and paralyzed. I know to you that I just seem like an inanimate being, deep down inside I am alive, and you are torturing me. The suffering you've inflicted, you're addicted cause your head's sick. Actions wicked, sick and twisted. Scars will heal, but I'll still feel it. But the nightmare's not over, so it's only just begun. As he starts to arrange me, does it all for fun? (I'll have you know) I'm not a game you can play, a freaking doll to manipulate. (Please wake me up) His fingers feel like blades as they run up my thighs, he paints my face, he changes my dress. I'm ready for his night. But not through my eyes, I'm stuck imprisoned and paralyzed. 

Bury My Burdens

I pray on my knees what are you trying to show me, God tell me please because it's driving me crazy. Am I sick? I'm sick, fanatic or possessed by a demon inside me. That is poisoning my soul deep from within, the fear, the fear, the fear! That's imprisoned me here, caused by these blackouts and nightmares, that seem to have come from nowhere. I'm scared, I'm scared. Am I ill and impaired, or am I bound by a curse from an evil? So I'll say a prayer, please God please purge out this torment inside me, the night caught fire, the dark sunk in. I felt the venom deep within, myself a toxic war. We've all got something to live for, I must contain my lunacy. Keep up the front that I'm okay, my burdens I must ignore. We've all got something to live for. I don't know why I faint, but these blackouts create these visions in my head of hate. And am I sick? Or is there more than it seems? At first glance is there a message hidden deep within these dreams? Please God please, purge out this torment inside me. Set me free, or have you forsaken me? the night caught fire, the dark sunk in. I felt the venom deep within, myself a toxic war. We've all got something to live for, I must contain my lunacy. Keep up the front that I'm okay, my burdens I must ignore. We've all got something to live for. Locked away I'll hide out, feels like I've come undone. Or I can leave now, but where can I go? Where can I run? We've all got something to live for. Gotta open my eyes to see throughhthe storm, and I try to maintain. The illusion of glee that makes me seem okay, day by day but it's starting to destroy me. I'll live a lie, keep it inside. I'll live a lie, I'll live a lie. The night caught fire, the dark sunk in. I felt the venom deep within, myself a toxic war. We've all got something to live for. I must contain, my lunacy. Keep up the front that I'm okay, my burdens I must ignore. We've all got something to live for. I'll live a lie!

Debilitated

Secrets of the night, make everyone go hide. Pretend we're not afraid, but we are terrified inside our minds. I visualize that everyone has died, everyone has died, everyone has died, everyone has died. And I try to masquerade the fear inside. But it's taking over, taking over my mind. I don't know how long I can hide but, I will try again and again to fend off the fear inside. And I will strive because I must survive, these involuntary dreams. And every time I faint, I wake up in untold pain. Perplexity absurdity, tell me please what's wrong with me? He says you're fine, you think I'm fine? I think you're fine, but I will run some tests for your piece of mind. I know how hard it can be, at home you cook and you clean. I just think you need some sleep, and for the dreams. They're more than dreams! They're only dreams. They're just imaginary, fiction, merely fantasy. I know you're scared and afraid, but you can't let it persuade you. To feel so dismayed, I will try again and again to fend off the fear inside. And I will strive because I must survive, these involuntary dreams. And every time I faint, I wake up in untold pain. Perplexity absurdity, tell me please what's wrong with me? Ma'am I've received the results of your tests, and it appears you have either. Voluntarily or involuntarily ingested a high does of a drug called ketmine. Is there something you're not telling me? No! I've been drugged, taken advantaged of, it must be what's causing all these dreams. It's smothering me, I can hardly breathe, every tie I fall asleep. I will try again and again to fend off the fear inside. And I will strive because I must survive, these involuntary dreams. And every time I faint, I wake up in untold pain. Perplexity absurdity, tell me please what's wrong with me?

The Dark You Fear In The Night

He said darling it'll be okay, we'll figure out this situation don't worry. (What?!) Don't patronize me with those condescending words you spew, your point of view is filtered through your ignorance. I'm caving in, I try to speak but I'm feeling weak. So I collapse down to my knees and cry will I ever see the light again? Who could have done this sick misdeed again, again repeatedly? Transgression suffers me, who could this culprit be? My paranoia's conquering, the last hope left inside of me. Disintegrate my sanity, tear me apart piece by piece. He said darling don't you cry, now look me in the eyes and believe in me and the words I say. That it's gonna be alright, (it's gonna be alright) Revitalize your faith in life. My love I'll try, (I swear I'll try) To reignite the hope and light, the dark you fear in the night. You don't understand what it's like to be, violated and forced into apprehension every time I fall asleep. Not just when I black out, but every night that I dream. It's a virus in my head for which there's no vaccine. Who could have done this sick misdeed again, again, repeatedly? Reticent sinful deeds, threatens my morality. I look around and I can't see. But it feels like eyes are watching me, panic anxiety, trepidation, misery. He said darling don't you cry, now look me in the eyes and believe in me and the words I say. That it's gonna be alright. (it's gonna be alright) Revitalize your faith in life, my love I'll try. (I swear I'll try) To reignite the hope and light, the dark you fear in the night. Every night I lie alone in our bed, while you play in our shed. With your hobbies, you're happy. Do you know how I feel? I'm lying there crazy, pulling the hair out of my head now my soul it feels dead. He darling don't you cry, now look me in the eyes and believe in me and the words I say. That it's gonna be alright, (it's gonna be alright) Revitalize your faith in life, my love I'll try. (I swear I'll try) To reignite the hope and light, the dark you fear in the night. Transgression suffers me, who could this culprit be?

Eleven Fifty Nine

It's eleven fifty nine, it's the story of my life and everything that could change in it. It's eleven fifty nine, it's the minute I could die and be lost to the end. God save me! The clock counts down to my demise, each faucet drip pierces my ears and swells my eyes. With tears I feel one now it burns as it runs down my face, I want to save myself but now I fear it's far too late. Fate hides outside, worries run through my mind. What will I find, what will I find? Under your medals, uniforms, and mini model Ts. A dirty secret that you never wanted us to see, lost in the rain. I'm abandoned and betrayed, the predator's been preying all along and I'm the game. (And I'm the game) I should have known, I should have seen the signs. Cause never were they clearer, I'm a mess how will I ever survive? The clock is ticking away, it's counting down the minutes, to the seconds of the rest of our lives. You're sick, you're a plague on me. Cyanide you are the poison on society, (You're slowly killing me) Perverted, twisted, fantasy. How could you do this to me? Your lies have forsaken me, we were a family. This proof just can't exist, refuse to believe in this. God I should have known, God I should have known, these pictures of your victims. Some of them just barely teens, in silver frame, your latest victim it's a picture of me. Lost in the rain, I'm abandoned and betrayed. The predator's been preying all along and I'm the game. (And I'm the game) I should have known, I should have seen the signs. Cause never were they clearer, I'm a mess how will I ever survive? The clock is ticking away, it's counting down the minutes to the seconds of the rest of our lives. I'm starving but I can't seem to eat, I'm so tired but I won't fall asleep. I won't lie down, I've got to lie down, dang I can't, I can't breathe. I should have known, you were the one who'd take it all away from me. The labyrinth in my mind, just trapped me in that horrible dream. We fell in love, we shared a life, you vowed it all to me. Your lies have forsaken me, we were a family.

Your Escape

Where do we go from here? We gotta disappear and get far away from this place, we have to escape the torment and piercing fear. All caused by this engineer of these twisted vicious games, the direful pain. Oh, how our lives have changed, all hope replaced with rage. Our light was lit but now it's fading away, just like a sinking ship we're going under to survive. We must escape and overcome these waves, oh my God, oh my God. I'm gonna be sick, we've got to get out of here. We've got to go, carry on my dear, I tell myself. You're strong and you can defeat this. Clandestinely we will vanish free, away and never return again. We've got to leave, my son and I must flee. Far away from this sick monstrosity, perpetuate our broken lives be free. From this imperiling plight that is condemning me, honey wake up I've packed your things. We've got to go, we've got to leave. Our precious time's diminishing, we've got to hurry we must leave. Honey wake up, I've packed your things. We've got to go, we've got to leave. Our precious time's diminishing, we've got to hurry we must leave. Can't let him see the fear in me, I must hide my anxiety. To protect you from this agony, he's coming in you've got to leave. Go, run away and get out of here. Make no delays and go disappear, go live the life that you want to. You have to simply leave me here, and son I swear it'll be okay. Just as long as you make your escape, don't be afraid of the world. Go make your mark and live another day, stay safe away. He comes in through the doorway, each step he takes I pray he doesn't see him. In the shadows of the hallway, sneaking softly out of the back way. No, he won't let him go, captured him! And now he's a hostage, locked in the closet. He pleads, begs us not to leave. Again and again and again and again, he said who do you think you are, trying to leave me? Don't know who I am or all the things I've seen, so take your final dose. My one last treat while you try to scream. Go, run away and get out of here. Make no delays and go disappear, go live the life that you want to. You have to simply leave me here, and son I swear it'll be okay. Just as long as you make your escape, don't be afraid of the world. Go make your mark and live another day, stay safe away. Drift away from here, feel it pulse through your veins. Take your last breath, just drift away.

Maze In My Mind

Alone here in this empty room, safe to presume that I've been here before. (Been here before) I remember it here, consumed by all of the fear. I can't take it anymore, lie to me, lie. Just lie to me please this can't be the truth. I'll deny, I'm stuck in my mind. And it seems I have to fight my way through this, I've got to find a way away from here. It's got me running around in circles, (circles) a manic maze in my head. And will I ever wake up again? Is this a dream or am I simply dead? Lie to me, lie please this can't be the truth. This knife stuck stabbed in my back that you used to carve, out this hole. To suck out the soul from me. It's got me running in circles, (circles) a manic maze in my head. And will I ever wake up again? Is this a dream or am I simply dead? Can't let this terror conquer me, gotta wake myself from this sick dream. To make it through and be free, from this hellish world I see. Is there a chance I can succeed, or should I just let it be? This drug induced, unwilling, sleep. God wake me up you'll see, I will be strong I will be free. Never let another control me, that is a fact I'll guarantee. Believe in me. I'll proudly march from this room, consumed by fear I will face my own doom. I'm lost inside my head, I will fight through never surrender, have to be free or I'd rather be dead. It's got me running around in circles, (circles) a manic maze in my head. And will I ever wake up again? Is this a dream, or am I simply dead?

The Judged

Ladies and gentlemen of this jury, I'm here today to bring this criminal to justice. One whose crimes are so heinous and evil, that if I had the power of the almighty I'd sentence her soul to hell. You've been accused of this horrid abuse, advocate your lies and hide behind your bruise. I'm not the culprit, I'm the victim of perjury. I swear I'm innocent cause I'm the one who's guilty of the atrocities. There's her confession, let's get on with the sentencing. That's bull**** he's the one who defiled me. See, she admitted it! Honor you must convict, I guess it's hard to see who is to blame. Stuck on the outside looking in, humiliation fuels my shame. Want to shed off my skin, so discredit me and take it all. Because it seems I'm destined to fall, disparage me and make the call. Deep down I know it's not my fault, I'm not to blame. How could I ever have asked for this? So do your worst, I'll stand up tall. And I'll never feel guilty at all, it's clear she instigated it. Spirits of chanel and her cherry lipstick. Used to tempt us with her smile over promiscuous dissident, Hariot's calamity. Order the penalty now, give her what she deserves. Give her what she deserves, lured him in with provocative beauty. She's done it before and she'll do it again, trust me. You're all so blind, how can't you see? His argument's enormity, I've lost my faith in society. How could you do this to me? To me, so discredit me and take it all. Because it seems I'm destined to fall, disparage me and make the call. Deep down I know it's not my fault, I'm not to blame. How could I ever asked for this? So do your worst, I'll stand up tall. And I'll never feel guilty at all. I will wake up, I will fight. Back to reality, I'd like to see you try. What a shame, I hope you said your goodbyes. I will prevail or I will die. Lock the cage, throw away the key. Settle in because you'll never be leaving. Lock the cage, throw away the key. You will suffer here, you will never leave. Lock the cage, throw away the key. Settle in because you'll never be leaving. Lock the cage, throw away the key. You will suffer here, you will stay asleep. You're all so sick, but now I see. This horrid dream is all just me, blaming myself for this tragedy. But now I see it clearly, so discredit me and take it all. Because it seems I'm destined to fall, disparage me and make the call. Deep down I know it's not my fault, I'm not to blame. How could I have ever asked for this? So do your worst, I'll stand up tall. And I'll never feel guilty at all. Guilty of sin, judgement for crimes commited.

How The Mighty Mock The Weak

Your heavy hateful gaze, places all the weight and blame right on my shoulders. Meant to bring me down to the ground and shiver while the room gets colder and colder. You thought it worked out all so well, you thought you sent me down to hell. You thought it worked out all so well but know that I'm not dead yet. No I'm not dead yet. And how the might mock the weak, I'm not one of them. So here's a promise I will keep, and I swear I will be free. Never again, rule over me. Well you can try to bring me down, to a place where I feel guilty, lost and lonely. I won't let that happen now, you can try your best but I won't you break me. I should have seen the signs were there, but I could never be prepared. I should have seen the signs were there, but I wouldn't accept it I was scared. No I'm not dead yet. And how the mighty mock the weak, I'm not one of them. So here's a promise I will keep. And I swear I will be free, never again. Rule over me. Well I'm not scared, I'll make it through somehow. This isn't over now, all of my fears. I'll overcome somehow, I'll overcome somehow. And how the mighty mock the weak, I'm not one of them. So here's a promise I will keep. And I swear I will be free, never again. Rule over me. 

Marionette

The stage is set for the scene, the special guest it must be me. Cause I'm the only one in this room, except for my love, onstage. Who's tied up awaiting doom. To my surprise, suddenly I see. On stage his scene partner is me, so I'll sit down and take my seat. Enjoy the show meant just for me, the torturous rage that's performed on this stage. As I gaze at myself playing his role. It makes me feel whole, when I'm in full control. I'm no longer a doll that you own. She cuts, slices, watches the blood drip down his arm just for the rush. He's confused, what will he do? No intermission, on to act two. I'll string you up, make you my puppet, hook in your arms and legs. My special marionette! The torturous rage, that's performed on this stage. As I haze at myself playing his role. (Never felt this way before) It makes me feel whole, when I'm in full control. I'm no longer a doll that you own. You've ruined me and everything, that used to seem pleasant to me. Is now a broken mockery, nostalgic lost reality. But now it seems, within these dreams. The power all belongs to me, and now you know there is no hope. So I'll take this knife and slice it through your throat. For you there is no hope! You've ruined me and everything, that used to seem pleasant to me. Is now a broken mockery, nostalgic lost reality. But now it seems, within these dreams. The power all belongs to me. And now you know there is no hope. So I'll take this knife and slice it through your throat. The torturous rage, that's performed on this stage. As I gaze at myself, playing his role. (Never felt this way before) It makes me feel whole, when I'm in full control. I'm no longer a doll that you own.

Tear Me Apart

I am awake, my demons that I've defeated. Have come back to reality, he doesn't know I'm still alive. I've got the element of surprise on my side, evil or righteousness. What should I do with it? So far he hasn't seen me, if I'm quiet I could crawl and sneak right over to the closet. Where my son's locked up and guarded, but I'm presented with this quandary. Once in a lifetime opportunity, to take advantage and avenge. And do some damage, take my sweet revenge. Could pulverize, I could punish him. Mutilate him like in my dreams, or should I make my great escape? Just take my son and run away, I will not fall. I will not follow your ways into the dark, (I won't be torn apart) Temptation is there, question is should I end him, leave, and make a new start? Make a new start, wanna make him bleed. Feel the suffering, trauma he inflicted on me. I decry, cause he deserves to die. Should I flee or should I end his life? Bleed, feel the suffering. Trauma he inflicted on me, I decry, because he deserves to die. Should I flee or should I end his life? I will not fall, I will not follow your ways into the dark. (I won't be torn apart) Temptation is there, question is should I end him, leave, and make a new start? Make a new start. Get up behind you, snuck up a knife before me lies. A chance to end you. (A chance to end you) Now what will I do? Give you a dose of your own medicine in the syringe, I'll take it and I'll push it in your skin. Wanna make him bleed, feel the suffering. Trauma he inflicted on me, I decry, because he deserves to die. Should I flee or should I end his life? I will not fall, I will not follow your ways into the dark. (I won't be torn apart) Temptation is there, question is should I end him, leave, and make a new start? Make a new start. I didn't fall, I didn't follow your ways into the dark. (Into the dark) I'll never become despicable monsters that you really are, you can't tear me apart.

Runaways

They say blood is thicker than water, that only time will tell. If it's a faulty connection, the light will always fail. Let's go all in, play a game that none of us know. The stakes are high, it's all or nothing. You'll have to excuse my imperfect judgement, we all got lost along the way. We hold these wounds that will not heal, I'm a runaway, I'm a runaway. And God doesn't even know my name. I'm sick of these lies and tricks, why won't you admit you were pretending? You said we had your word, but your words is so absurd. How's it worked out? Has it worked out in your favor? Thought you'd be something more than face down on the floor, how's it worked out? Come on kid, keep your chin up. Thought you'd be something more than face down on the floor. We are the runaways, we all got lost along the way. We hold these wounds that will not heal, I'm a runaway, I'm a runaway. And God doesn't even know my name. These wild road leads several ways, on separate paths it feels unreal. Cause we're runaways, I'm a I'm a runaway. And God doesn't even know my name. This bond wasn't meant to break, a reaction we all still can feel. It was all in our heads, the illusion is dead. But I know that this is real, I'm so sick of this. Twisted lies and **** this outcome plagues me, makes me feel sick. We all got lost along the way, we hold these wounds that will not heal. I'm a runaway, I'm a runaway. And God doesn't even know my name. These wild roads leads several ways, on separate paths it feels unreal. Cause we're runaways, I'm a runaway. And God doesn't even know my name. 

The Game

Thank God I've printed on my skin, never give up. Cause there are times I want to quit, say I just don't give a **** but no, I won't let this go. This music is my home, I will be played no more. Let's settle up the score, I feel so torn. I feel so torn. Between what I know is right and what is wrong, to not let go. Is hard but letting go would kill me more, they'll lie and cheat and fake it. To the end and kill creative dreams and hopes, the sacrifices moments I have missed. My daughter, God I just want to go home. This is the life I chose,  I can't go back? (Should I go back?) But then I'd always lack, the one thing that has kept my soul whole. No, this is the life I chose. This is the life I chose, I feel so torn. Between what I know is right and what is wrong, to not let go. Is hard but letting go would kill me more. It's all just a game, it's all just a game. Tear down each other so we can be kings, it's all just a game. A sick freaking game, a game you must play when you're chasing your dreams. Save me, take me far away from my insecurities. Mask me, so nobody sees the parts of me I keep, buried deep inside of me. I feel so torn, between what I know is right and what is wrong. To not let go, is hard but letting go would kill me more. I feel so torn. (so torn) Between what is right and what is wrong, to not let go. Is hard but letting go would kill me more. 

Broken Glass

Wake up I breathe in, this west coast heat. And the morning's calling me, is this where I'm meant to be? It's always feeling, like I'm against the current. I get high from the rush, will it ever be enough? Is this it, my time to celebrate? As I grow I find that fate, isn't what I thought it's be. Every step's another journey, the time slips away. The future is inevitable, it always seems. That the grass is always greener, on the other side of the fence that is my life. And every inch I gain they, every inch I gain they take a mile. The buzz it comes down, and the real world comes out. And it haunts me in my dreams, it's why I can never freaking sleep. Is the glass half empty, is it half full? I'll throw it down say freak it all, as it shatters on the floor. What a perfect metaphor, is this it me time to celebrate? As I grow I find that fate, isn't what I thought it's be. Every step's another journey, the time slips away. The future's inevitable, it always seems. That the grass is always greener, on the other side of the fence that is my life. And every inch I gain they, every inch I gain they take a mile. I need it more. Will it ever be enough, will it ever be enough, will it ever be enough. Time slips away, the future's inevitable. It always seems, that the grass is always greener on the other side, of the fence that is my life. And every inch I gain they, every inch I gain they take a mile. Time slips away, every inch I gain they take a mile, every inch I gain they take a mile. 

Scream

We've only got, one life. One life limited time is all we got, so plot it out before it's over. We've only got one life, one life limited is all we got. Don't rot, away before it's over. I can't just sit around this stillness makes me sick. My world is spins around I want to conquer it, say you're offended. Can't defend, open arms a hand descended. Wait for the attack we can never go back, let's live our lives up to the fullest. Scream, la, da, da, da. Let it out and sing this chorus, scream, la, da, da, da. Let's live our lives up to the fullest, scream, la, da, da, da. Let it out and sing this chorus, scream la, da, da, da. It's now or never you won't ever be the same, since no one else can do this for us. Scream, la, da, da, da. We've only got, one life. One life limited time is all we got, so plot it out before it's over. We've only got one life, one life. One life limited time is all we got, don't rot. Away before it's over, we came together we can set each other free. Under pressure the aggressor I can be, we are the ones. To make it done, to make a change. To eat the gun, the risk is so much fun. Let's live our lives up to the fullest, scream, la, da, da, da. Let it out and sing this chorus, scream la, da, da, da. Let's live our lives up to the fullest, scream la, da, da, da. Let it out and sing this chorus, scream la, da, da, da. It's now or never you won't ever be the same, since no one else can do this for us. Scream la, da, da, da. Let's hear you scream. We've only got one life, one life limited time is all we got. So plot it out before it's over, we've only got one life. One life limited time is all we got, we got, we got. La, da, da, da. Let's live our lives up to the fullest, scream la, da, da, da. Let it out and sing this chorus, scream la, da, da, da. It's now or never you won't ever be the same. Since no one else, can do this for us. Scream la, da, da, da. Scream la, da, da, da. 

No Walls

The story of my life, and I speak to you. No filtered characters to hide behind, all the messed up thoughts that rush in through my brain. Will I lose the voice that keeps me sane? And will they see it? I'm running blind here, and nothing seems clear. I look up to the sky and I find I wonder why, why the hell am I alive and standing here? Ashamed I am afraid, that this all will be in vain. A burdened road to which the end, I'll disappear. I can't help but feel this hopeless, vicious pit inside my gut. And it makes me question my decisions, that I've made while growing up. I don't know now, (decisions I have made, have I messed up?) I don't know how, (the future unfolds, all I crave is hope) I look up to the sky and I find I wonder why, why the hell am I alive and standing here? Ashamed I am afraid, that this all will be in vain. A burdened road to which the end, I'll disappear I can see it. It's in my sights, I just gotta reach it. Pull it in before I go blind, it look into me. Dead in my eyes, and suddenly I notice I am terrified, I look up to the sky, and I find I wonder why. Why the hell am I alive, and standing here? I look up to the sky and I find I wonder why, why the hell am I alive and standing here? Ashamed I am afraid, that this all will be in vain, a burdened road to which the end. I'll disappear, I'm afraid I'll disappear.

The Negative

It will fall, it will break. Dissipate fade away to nothing, it will fall it will break. It will all be erased, break the lines. Know that I can't escape this, who am I? If I'm dreaming just wake me up again, running dry. The waters of time, have dried up to dust in the wind. It will fall, it will break. I'm lost in the words, it burns like the sun. They're still laid unspoken, my mind is undone. The world's disarray, this weight on my shoulders is crushing me down. The end I have seen through the shred, the seconds they scathe. They keep counting down, nothing is saved. Not a king nor his crown, I'll admit I'm afraid. That nothing and nowhere will ever be found, no echoes to foster the sound. Pull me back, from the edge I've been walking. I expect, once it's all said and done, they'll be nothing left. Was this a sign from above, or a presage to swallow me whole? Blinded by the world that sees through this rose coloured glass, fixated refuse to break the gaze. This blissful ignorance will keep no one safe, no one will be saved. I can't pretend, just wait for the end. I'm lost in the words, it burns like the sun. They're still laid unspoken, my mind is undone the world's disarray. This weight on my shoulders is crushing me down, the end I have seen through the shroud. The seconds they scathe, they keep counting down. Nothing is saved, not a king nor his crown. I'll admit I'm afraid, that nothing and nowhere will ever be found. No echoes to foster the sound, I feel me choke on my breath as I hold on to nothing. I feel the barriers are blurred, I feel me choke my breath as I hold on to nothing. I feel the barriers are blurred, it will fall. It will break, dissipate fade away to nothing. It will fall, it will break. In the end it will fade away, I feel my choke on my breath as I hold on to nothing. I feel the barriers are blurred, it will fall it will break. Dissipate fade away to nothing, it will fall it will break. In the end it will fade away, it will fall it will break. In the end it will fade away. 

Hurt

I hurt myself today, to see if I still feel. I focus on the pain, the only thing that's real. The needle tears a hole, the old familiar sting. Try to kill it all away, but I remember everything. What have I become? My sweetest friend, everyone I know goes away. In the end, and you could have it all. My empire of dirt, I will let you down. I will make you hurt. I wear this crown of thorns, upon my liar's chair. Full of broken thoughts, I cannot repair. Beneath the stains of time, the feelings disappear. You are someone else, I am still right here. What have I become? My sweetest friend, everyone I know goes away. In the end, and you could have it all. My empire of dirt, I will let you down, I will make you hurt. If I could start again, a million miles away. And I would keep myself I would find a way.
