Well, don't be afraid No matter what the others say Don't waste your time You have the power to make up your mind Save your own soul No matter what you're told Don't breathe and stare Tonight (tonight) Tonight is the night Tonight is the night (Tonight)(Tonight) To prove to yourself That you'll be alright (Alright)(Alright) The time is now Tell them inconsiderate bastards that they must bow down To the throne (The throne) The throne is something You'll always own Lies lies Everyone dies when everyone's feeding you terrible lies Do me a favor and just crown yourself And create your own power And your own wealth Break these fucking walls society builds Expand your surroundings (Expand them all) Use them to your advantage (Use them to your advantage) And discover (and discover) the power of will Well, don't be afraid No matter what the others say Don't waste your time You have the power to make up your mind Goodbye to all my constant fears Hello to all my life's years I want you to Kneel before me (You are the king) Goodbye to all your common sense Hello to all my confidence I want you to Leave me be The choice is yours It's not a chore It should take no effort all Don't make it so difficult I don't want to see you fall I don't want to see you fall Keep moving towards the throne Your wishes won't be granted You are on your own This city is yours This city Is Yours Well don't be afraid No matter what the others say Don't waste your time You have the power to make up your mind Save your own soul No matter what you're told Don't breathe and stare The opportunity is everywhere

Hawkeye 04:32
All he ever ever wanted was her He looked back as she waved And that's when he boarded his plane And this love Is strongest when he never knows if she'll see him again And her word on a page would never leave his hands Keep your eyes on the prize as you aim Have the backs of the ones who remain Its in your hands we trust Don’t let your words gather dust He wakes up in the sand of desperate hopes to keep composure When he looks around he sees that the enemy has swarmed all over As he shot they would not back away The days grew longer He lost his mind They stole his brain They beat him senseless in the desperate hopes for his pain He didn’t know if he’d get away They weakened his muscles They strapped him to lead They unleashed his chains and they left him for dead Keep your eyes on the prize as you aim Keep your eyes on the prize as you aim Have the backs of the ones who remain Its in your hands we trust Don’t let your words gather dust She told me she loved me And that I am the greatest man she knows I can't wait to have our own home We'll wake up in bed together There's no storm we cannot weather Instead of holding the ones I love I'm currently dodging the bullets from above As much as I want to run away I came to this place just to save the day Keep your eyes on the prize as you aim Have the backs of the ones who remain Its in your hands we trust Don’t let your words gather dust He picked himself up He picked himself up from the ground He picked himself up From the ground

I saw my face in the lake I chose the wrong path to take How could I be so blind to your words? I let the greed get the best of me The bodies have sunk to the bottom And I thought they were gone But I never checked my insides I never looked in my eyes I felt my heartbeat float to the top, but I never realized I held all their hearts in the palm of my hand It was the tell tale sign I thought I'd understand And as I sunk the boat The lake, she spoke The answers were inside of me, They were right in my throat Now it is the time to choke on the blood of these sins I drowned in the smoke But they were right They were right the whole time They screamed to me, and told me That I was to join them soon They screamed to me, and they clawed their fingers through every wound At this point, I'm already screwed At this point, I'm already fucking screwed Return the Slab Return the Slab Or suffer my curse Each hour it always gets worse Return the Slab Return the Slab What's your offer? Is this some kind of trick? What's your offer? I don't know what to pick What's your offer? Is there a prize? What's your offer? It's not my time to rise What's your fucking offer? I couldn't see myself in the mirror However... I saw my face in the lake I saw my face in the lake Lock your life up an throw away the key You weren't supposed to see this side of me Lock your life up And throw away the fucking key This is the person I should never ever be Return the Slab

Burn Victim 03:29
I've seen you slip and fall Buried inside these walls I was always by your side Every damn time you called You still walk through fire Taking the wrong turn I guess I'll have to watch you burn Well, look at that Bitch you at it again You telling lies to the sky With a paper and pen I never thought of truth you lack Until you took me for granted And stabbed me in the back But it's okay, you don't know how it feels To be the one who has to spin the wheel Do you think it's fun for me to see you fall? Why would you think that I never cared at all? Burn Now I'll watch you burn I cannot stop you now You clawed your skin with your nails I gave you a chance And you totally failed And you totally Failed Damn, I guess I never realized You're a waste of my time I was too hypnotized I never met someone So stuck up Talking tough and Acting like their so fucked up I see you've set your own fire Normally I would help but I'm too tired Of this bullshit Do you think it's fun for me to see you fall? Why would you think that I never cared at all? (You spat in my face and turned) Now I'll just watch you burn As the fire burns You start to fade away You are the reason why there's nothing else left to say Running out of time Running all out of time Took it all for granted And committed a crime Better recognize and realize I don't wanna look at you with my own two eyes Running out of time Running all out of time Took it all for granted And committed a crime Better recognize and realize I don't wanna look at you with my own two... Eyes

Sentinel 04:37
It never ends It never ends for me It's like my body's swinging on a tree What a shame! I cannot see the sun I thought this war was over But it has just begun The lights have turned off And I can't see my face Every single breath I take Will now be erased Look at me now I did this to myself Now is my time to Escape from hell Escape from hell I think it's best if you just walk away Is this the end? Is this the end of me And all the goals I may never reach What a waste! I know this isn't right Walk from the dark into the light I will never let myself Go down this path again Things just aren't the same As opposed to back then But now I know I know the fucking truth And now it's something that I have to prove I have to prove I think it's best if you just walk away It's all for the best I never asked for this shit in the first place So why the fuck should I stick around? I never asked for this self destruction Gotta get that weight of my shoulders It's a thousand pounds It's not the end It's not the end of me I'll show the world that I'm finally free I think it's best if you just walk away

Weakest Link 03:54
You thought you saved me But you enslaved me You were the one That was holding me back I had it all together Created a path that would last forever But you're the one That put the knife in my back Because I put you first Somehow this bridge would fucking burst between us!! Between our souls I don't wanna be caught up in the moment Caught up in all your trash If I stay I will be nothing I'll be nothing but your pile of ash You were the push to my success But you sold your soul Now it's all just one big mess After all the effort I've wasted I should've let you go I never felt so alive Until I figured out It was all a lie I put you first But you fucked it up So why am I the one that has to die? I took it all. Took all the blame It was the only way you could ever be tamed I took a bad turn Now I'll never be the same After all the effort I've wasted I should've let you go {I cannot sleep because I wonder What it's like to be afraid of it all I wish I had your back} But I just wish I knew How to prevent the fall {It was hell to see you suffer To see you face The cries for help that I saw My heart is under attack} I could've dragged you out Out of these closing walls But sometimes I just wish You made a fucking call I had it all figured out... but you.... You had to go because... You are my weakest link Breaking these chains you gave me from the first day Ending this bond we have I want to turn away

Inertia 05:34
Your single sentence walks away and runs without conviction You're hoping time will turn back every single coalition How dare you love a life that's endurably a life you're made to be living They look at you as if your sin is greater than their sinning Don't run away Stand against this trialled age And everyday Makes your passion fall away Raise your glass everyone you've made this boy ashamed of himself and all your wealth given to tithes has made you weaker inside yourself Don't run away Stand against this trialled age And everyday Makes your passion fall away Angels don't make mistakes, Bitch Dont walk ashamed We're all ashamed Find a day and repay all the sins Make a list and remiss all the battles and Grant a wish make it twice we suffice to make wine into water Tell the others I dont have dreams I dream nightmares Your single sentence walks away and runs without conviction You're hoping time will turn back every single coalition How dare you love a life that's endurably a life you're made to be living They look at you as if your sin is greater than their sinning Don't run away Stand against this trialled age And everyday Makes your passion fall away And take away those days those lies you've heard and learn to be whole again

The kiss of the devil has stained my lips forever a gun in your conscience never shot, but got my silence How could I see when you made me feel like I was worth it? If you want lies I'll make your bed instead And sit you silent inside your head Twas my deceit where the passion and desire meet Your waking up to the lies underneath your feet I've prayed for a new beginning I've stayed for I can't stand quitting Do you know why I'm fighting here? I've been praying for you my dear So every lover thinks their clever Now their heart is leather Wear your sleeves so tightly Hide the scars that shine so brightly The war of words starts now Don't back down Don't back down Twas my deceit where the passion and desire meet You're waking up to the Lies underneath your feet The lie of a back nine going into overtime love cries as lust buys a one way ticket to paradise I've prayed for a new beginning I've stayed for I can't stand quitting Do you know why I'm fighting here? I've been praying for you my dear Twas my deceit where the passion and desire meet You're waking up to the lies underneath your feet How does it feel to see the damage you've done? Fuck all your sympathy This war has begun If you can't live under it you're gonna have to get over it This was the love, the love that brought my heart closer to yours Was it really love or just the love you showed behind closed doors? I'm not the first, the first, and I am clearly not your last I hope you can look at yourself without the fear of broken glass Without the fear of broken glass I hope you can look at yourself I've prayed for (a new beginning)

Traitors liars cowards towers Tell me what I can't do and what I can't find in my own life be a serpent in the roses and get caught in thorns before your cozy money makes you frozen If you make music I'm the president Smells of plants in your cloudy residence You can look elsewhere You have lost our money Counteract counteract Make it count Turn the base around Actions safe and sound We gotta turn on our headlights To realize where we are going Is it worth it? Are these gifts worth showing? Counteract counteract Make it count Turn the base around Actions safe and sound Turn the base around It's like you to wish for fallacy when our dreams tell us leave we wake up to hypocrisy And everyday we search for the truth and realize we'd never find that in you Our arms have closed all the ties Flying away, waving goodbye Our eyes Fixed on the sky Not giving up Saving our lives Our eyes Fixed on the sky Not giving up Saving our fucking lives Counteract counteract Make it count Turn the base around Actions safe and sound We gotta turn on the headlights To realize where we are going Is it worth it? Are these gifts worth showing?

Reflections 05:47
This space in between my chest is growing because I've known the best I've ran away I've taken lives I've closed the space between my eyes I've known the things that make us whole But separate I have seen us fall I've seen the scars That lay upon your arm They scream to me with so much harm They remind me of the things I've done Like the times I refused to see the sun You're not awake You're in a dream Like the one I had when I couldn't redeem myself And now you're next in line Fight for me I've seen it all before (I've seen it all before) You're making sense of memories that I locked away behind closed doors I can't breathe I can't sleep Your actions are killing me Open your fucking mind So you can see what I see You (yeah, you) Yeah, you looked up to me (You looked up to me) when I haven't done any good at all But just remember one thing Know that you are loved You're becoming a man With the prospect of promised land With new eyes that face the day Let reflections fade away Let's go Just be your own individual As opposed to a coward. Very typical You can't say you're okay If you have followed my footsteps I think it's time to make your path One day you will see The proud man I could be Side by side, just you and me We'll seize the day. We will see One day you will see The proud man I will be Side by side, just you and me We'll conquer this journey You're becoming a man With the prospect of promised land With new eyes that face the day Let reflections fade away Get up Killing everything that involves my insecurities Starting off fresh with a heart full of purity Stretching out, broadening all my capabilities Dumping out the past if I utilize mobility You should do the same for yourself You should do The same

Stimulant 03:45
My body's losing its touch Channeling energy Through the air Is this pleasant atmosphere Or something that will make me scared? I feel like I'm the gods from above I know everything I breathe, speak, hate and love I think it's just a game (It is. So why are you surprised?) There is a price to pay (But there's no tears running from my eyes) Is your life worth the trade? (You just don't know what it's like) You and me have so much to discuss It took away my hunger But not my hunger for power It took away my smile But it took me many miles It made me an intellectual human being It's fucked up but are you seeing what I'm seeing? I think it's just a game (It is. So why are you surprised?) There is a price to pay (But there's no tears running from my eyes) Is your life worth the trade? (You just don't know what it's like) You and me have so much to discuss No no no. No You have no authority Of the unnatural chemicals inside of me It's making everything so easy It makes me invincible But wait When will I ever get home? When will I get my body back? Why won't you set me free? Goodbye to me Cornered in a dark blue room Contemplating if I should give in soon Cornered in a dark blue room Contemplating if I should give in to this trap But if I'm gonna be real I have to clear up Shake my fucking hand It's a deal I think it's just a game (It is. So why are you surprised?) There is a price to pay (But there's no tears running from my eyes) Is your life worth the trade? (You just don't know what it's like) Open the door and strive for victory I have the key

Justify 02:59
So as the tide fills our eyes We've wasted time, we've wasted time And as our hearts intertwine We lose our minds, we lose our minds It's not as easy as it seems and it's It's ripping my heart out from the seams So as you tell me I wrap the words around me And as you listen I find new life You listen So as the waves crash the sand We lose our hands we lose our hands And now our words are washed away Our hearts to pay, our hearts to pay It's not our fault and now we part How did this start? How did this start? It's not as easy as it seems and it's It's ripping my heart out from the seams So as you tell me I wrap the words around me And as you listen I find new life You listen Killing everything that ever meant a thing to me Tryna find the time so I can get down on my knees When the ground's too hard, I'm afraid I'll suffer I only need love once I find a different lover Art is a gift I wanna give to the best of me I'm gonna stop with this stupid shit And stop with this adultery, please

Oubliette 03:43
I had this memory Of when we used to run around Carelessly These fucking memories Tamper with my heart because you're Not with me (You're not with me) You're not with me Anymore You’re a masterpiece in a closed museum You’re a shining star through a blacklit lens I'd move mountains to see your face Gone at the wrong time, you’re in the wrong place You’re a masterpiece in a closed museum You’re my shining star I'd move mountains To see your face (I miss you. I miss you) (Please come back) We've been to hell and back Because we fought together How am I supposed to see the sun under this stormy weather? I cannot force myself to not feel this pain It's eating me alive I think I'm going insane I know you can't come home (I know you can't come home) But you're still with me No matter where I go (No matter where I go) Stay by my side I will conquer everything To point at which the heavens will start caroling for the push you always gave to me From the beginning Even though I lost you We are still fucking winning You’re a masterpiece in a closed museum You’re a shining star through a blacklit lens I'd move mountains to see your face Gone at the wrong time, you’re in the wrong place This candle's lit with a flame Although things won't ever be the same We'll meet again one day And finish everything To start all over I have these memories...
