The Threat Of Progress
02:02
|
|||
This is the threat of progress slashed ear to ear
We search for hope and we live in fear
an author to tragedy
writing in the pages of your misery
a victim in the dirt
the stain of defeat
nothing more crippling
the stain of defeat wont end me.
---------------------------------------------------------
Think back and fear what youve seen.
It seemed so unrealistic.
This world
a misunderstanding
a trial run
got taken too seriously
Mistakes were made.
Loyal ones turned out fake.
New kids, new days.
Are we willing to make a change?
Forced into a world.
that makes me sick.
I can't believe, youre not outraged!
what can you say to the ones beyond recall?
some days seem hopeful
ill do whatever it takes

Your life is a
contradiction
Feeding off of your affliction
Blind vision
Pray for a world that's soon ending
no reward
While your walls are burning down
Deny all you see, a false reality
Save your fucking breath
In a world of human failure
your god has closed his eyes
Blinded by deceit
you wont reach me
let me burn and save your fucking breath

Light the fuse and laugh.
Tourch everything that you've built.
You've left me with no option
Smash the chair youre sitting in, shatter the glass thats in your hand
All that you have, all that you own, all that you worked for...on fucking fire!
You turned around and everything good is gone

Stripped Away
02:09
|
|||
The days fall out
of our pockets one after the other.
We are slowly watching our civil liberties being stripped away
We've been chained in damnation for far too long
those chains still follow behind as we sit lost in the sands of time
Our past
aggression
Now a present fucking memory
Denied basic rights
What have you done?
Decisions made by a puritanical culture.
a Christofacist party telling us whats right for our minds and our bodies
This is not about what's right,
it's ultimate control.
A line has been drawn
in the sand.
YOU HAVE NO RIGHT!!!

Introspection

|

Spit in the face of pride
Every step we keep repeating
I've tied it off before, but those cuts keep on bleeding
no more chains to bare
ive bled my last drop for you
This isnt what i planned
to pledge my devotion to.
Raging through the minefields
of this hollow life.
Searching for my place.
searching for my home.
a million cries for virtue battles through my mind.
There is no reason why
I could believe your little lies
Put yourself in my shoes. Nothing to give. Everything to fucking lose. Self reflection.
Been stomping on eggshells my entire life
Theres no way you could ever silence me.

Out Of Reach
02:00
|
|||
You came crashing down
like a ton of bricks not cemented into a wall
Collapsing with a smile
it almost seemed intentional
Choking on your bile
I can hear you say,"You became your enemy".You took your beating
with a fucking smile
it seems like There is no getting out of this one.
Dreams are not allowed
Here's to those who die trying
Debris is falling from the burning sky
step back and take a look from the outside
Flashing lights and more lost time
I'd rather get left behind
Then become another innate failure
Born as free men but our hands are tied
Eyes left bleeding from the tears weve cried
We struggle to lift every day
What will we leave behind?
A tortured, shuddering mess
Over burdened by mankind
It feels like we're slightly out of reach
-never gaining ground

Rerun

We never know what the new days will take
nothing but time away
why waste all the hours with those that we dont know
why do we waste so much time alone?
take advantage of these times
That shape our fleeting lives
dont wait to communicate
Just because we dont have much time
we live on repeat we live through the worst of times
we cant wait for the perfect day to get up and rise
We can watch these moments pass
Or we can live them like our last
And take them for all they're worth
all theyre fucking worth!!!

Downhearted

im throwing knives at my tv set
do we deserve this punishment
an embarrasment to the world
is this shit show over yet
i know i didnt sign up for this
our cries for justice go unheard
forced into the life we live
not a chance for us to take
we bend and bend until we break
ive got nothing more to give
-----------------------------------
how could this all have gone so wrong
i cant believe it, im so ashamed
we keep on singing the same old song
we just keep pointing fingers
(we keep) fanning the flames
an embarrassment to the world
we've got nothing more to give
Don't tell me how to live!

Ill Will
02:46
|

Got me by the throat.
Your hands are freezing
And fingernails are burrowing in
Paralyzed by the past, the airs escaping my lungs.
My last lights are fading fast.
That forked tongue
still flicking at my ear
Do your worst
I'm a fool,
I've earned my bitterness
when you run me down, dont pick me up
I am a broken man
Who cant be saved
barley breathing. forever broken
an unmarked grave
my blood is boiling thin
I can taste it with every breath taken in
It seems I've finally lost the will to care
My existence weakens
to a lump of clay
Hollow bones begin to crack
from seasons of decay
If I were fire, I'd burn the world away
Chained to a life disgusted by the way i live day to day
Nothing seems to heal.
Nothing seems to change.
Everything is fading...
My last lights are fading fast.

Gutsy

We used to stand defiant
In this festering earth.
The chaos was our one true calling
Completely out of sync
Broken glass and now you drink?
Youre on thw wrong side of the wall
So abnormal and now you fall
Look at the cracks below,
can you save yourself?
You've been rotting away from who you used to be
Your mind shuts off like a switch on a machine
Rejecting all pleasure, denying all your pain
If I can't keep my eyes open,
then I'd rather be dead.
These words have no place in my mouth
let alone my head
Look at the cracks below,
can you save yourself?
You've been rotting away from who you used to be
Your mind shuts off like a switch on a machine
Rejecting all pleasure, denying all your pain
numbing of all senses, while your body decays
this life is not what you thought it should be
We live
and die
without ever really knowing
who we are
