This Means War 04:01
lyrics
buy track
Enjoy your arrogance, In a world full of ignorance We chose to step aside, Become a part of the new divide A rare breed, Bred from damaged seeds While fists kept erupting Holding out hands of giving If words are our bond You're too easily broken If words are our bond You're too easily broken Watch as you fade away, Slowly falling into the wake Of your mistakes Your life crumbles to ruins, Hidden in the masquerade You're two faced Fly so high, Exalt yourself Till wings ignite, too close to the sun Fallen from the angel, Into the devil You've become Engulfed in self-pity, From every path you've chosen Deep down we both knew, You could be better than this Let go of the past you've held so close I've felt you're pain stricken heart I know your shame Allow it to feed the flame Watch as you fade away, Slowly falling into the wake Of your mistakes Your life crumbles to ruins, Hidden in the masquerade You're two faced (X2) A battle cry screamed before, Been beaten and scorned Welcome to the front lines, This means war Gluttony and greed A world where we feast We're all just serpents Feeding off the fruit of the tree (X2)

Like lightning crashing through the ground So quick to judge and your words ring Like lightning crashing through the ground So quick to judge and your words ring Like thunder pounding in my ears Your words collapse, you have no control Like thunder pounding through my ears Your words collapse, you have no control And with this hate Pointed at our heads Like a loaded gun Left with no options Exhale the anger and breakthrough I wont deny my past Bring forth the future Nothing to lose, nothing to prove Exhale the anger Bring forth the truth Exhale the anger Bring forth this truth We'll stand, we'll breathe Ill hold on to what's left of me We'll stand, we'll breathe Ill hold on to what's left of me And with is hate Pointed at our heads Like a loaded gun Left with no options No options left for us now

You know I write, in hopes these words will make it stop Make everything feel alright Every minute is a new verse, a new countdown To find my end game is a hearse I cant stop it poetry and noting, jotting down rhythm and rhyme Knowing I march to a beat of a drum, one that is beating out of time Doing my own thing, with a future based on uncertainty But I'm scared of dying effortless Terrified of a death that's meaningless This is all that makes sense My mind's a wreck, the foundation is crumbling Ill stay starving I'll gladly bleed Expecting the world in our palms I'd rather die fighting for what I believe Ice flows through my veins Trying to fathom emotions that I struggle to contain Am I so insane? The truth made it hurt Forced myself to believe To what another's lies conceived Let the ice freeze the pain inside of me Allow it to alleviate and exterminate This hurt, this pain The malice, the shame The sores and blisters Hands worn thin These sores and blisters Arouse calloused I''ll stay starving I'll gladly bleed Expecting the world in our palms I'd rather die fighting for what I believe And everything will fall into place The American dream says work hard Pursuit of happiness Left with no promises Pursuit of happiness Left with no promises

Dear Brethren 04:42
lyrics

If only you were around for one last drink It worked for you, why won't it work for me But I can't pass, I can't let The world forget, you will live through me To strip a world from what you taught How selfish can I be, how selfish could I seem Halo over my disguise Left with the anguish of your demise For all those lessons I learned From loved ones whose time was too short You live on for reason Breathe of life to live on for you My dear brethren that lie in the sky Six feet under I still hear your voices (They're haunting) My dear brethren that lie in the sky Six feet under I still hear your voices (I'm calling for answers) You were always supposed to be there My brother, dear brother When I try to talk I feel a lump in my throat My brother, dear brother Everyday I awake to a tear inside, hiding my emotions Everyone says time heals all wounds, but it can't heal this Its just given me more time to cope My dear brethren that lie in the sky Six feet under I still hear your voices (They're haunting) My dear brethren that lie in the sky Six feet under I still hear your voices (I'm calling for answers) The only ones who believed in me, and all I could ever become Who had faith in the nothing, I feel I'm becoming I could be bleeding, but my pulse keeps beating For a heart that believes in you, as you believed in me Playing a game of roulette, spinning the barrel Hoping I won't fail, thanks to you I refuse I'm driven by a dead man's fuse, because I'm looking into a world That has next to nothing left, that it can take from me One day I'll see you soon As I look into the night sky Begging for your advice The answer comes loud and clear I feel a presence I know you're near I know you're right here I feel you're presence near I know you're right here I feel you're existence as you fade

I never thought I'd find a place where I belong A place to call home, I always felt trapped Inside of walls, for so long I felt worthless Till I found my purpose I always felt I couldn't feel like fit in To find safety, a sense of serenity My mind ran around the clock But when the music come on, time just up and stops This families all I've got, The blood I've been given is not This is all that I have Just try and take it away Sometimes life drags you down, till you cant hear the sound Of your salvation Sometimes life drags you down, chews you up and spits you out Chews you up and spits you out Sometimes I've felt the demon in me Lost in my mind, I feel it slowly slipping Away I catch myself, trying to hide What's left inside You called me the animal, who's the one stuck living in a cage Just ask yourself who's really the shame When you look into a mirror of your own graves Look inside of us, there's a fire you cant control Wild and full of a fury, you cannot Chain us any longer, put a stake through my heart Holy water couldn't tame me With a pride of a lion, this heart on our sleeve The lies we've been fed for so long We fight the hand that feeds And make it on our own, no longer we stand alone Sometimes life drags you down, till you cant hear the sound Of your salvation Sometimes life drags you down, chews you up and spits you out Chews you up and spits you out This is my bloodline

Karma 02:58

My jaded eyes became clear As sober lies fed into fear But I as the fool, let them seep into A castles walls The fortress that protected me For so long, struck me down Its almost been a year But a lifetime since I felt anything like this Its obvious to me now That ignorance was bliss Deny me, despise me Desolation, annihilation Deny me, despise me Desolation of what was left Like the tides undertow Slowly dragged me in For the waves to crash unto me Right through me I see you standing alone within the crowd I feel the commotion as the world surrounds Me and you when everything used to stop Now only the pain subsides when I look into your eyes I see nothing but the cold hard truth And there's nothing banding me to you Like the tides undertow Slowly dragged me in For the waves to crash unto me Right through me Karma, Welcome to the dark Karma, That you never knew Karma, Welcome to the dark Karma, What lies in my heart Karma, Welcome to the dark Karma, Judge me for what you think I am Karma, Welcome to the dark Karma, You'll never see what I'll become

Relics 04:07

Tomorrow is waiting, to become yesterday Its hard for me to move, I cannot speak Nothing left to say, feeling the weight of a world On my shoulders Nothing left to say, weighing down on me We wont allow our past, to control our outcome The future is in our hands, we design our own plans We are the architects, to pull ourselves from this mess We can be the architects, to build something more than this I'm leaving these bridges behind me Unsure moving forward blindly Finally I can see This isn't who I wanted to be Enjoy your city of plunder, no longer will I will be dragged under The shackles that chained me, I will leave behind Just keep holding on, patience is a virtue That I have lost That time has come, that time is now We are the broken, we are the damned Using your judgement, to pave our own road I will follow spirits blindly, through the ashes may they guide me The grass may not be greener at the other side(x2) But if nothing else it time I tried This is my goodbye, at least its time I tried This is my goodbye, if nothing else it's time I tried This is my goodbye, at least its time I tried I'm leaving these bridges behind me Unsure moving forward blindly Finally I can see This isn't who I wanted to be
