Take This Life
It's not so much the pain
It's more the actual knife
Pretending the picture is perfect
I cut myself to sleep
I close my eyes for a second
And curse my fragile soul
I scream to hide that I'm lonely
The echo calls my name
If I ever, If I never
Make me understand the thought whatever
Make me see. make me be
Make me understand
You're there for me
Take this life, I'm right here
Stay awhile and breathe me in
Take this life, I'm right here
Stay awhile and breathe me in
The rain drops just beg to hit me
What now? Hasn't rained for days
No time to play hide-and-seek
I call on you to take me on
Break me down to pieces
Put me back, do it right this time
Struggling to fill this empty shell
Burn all my efforts
In the end it means nothing
If I ever, If I never
Make me understand the thought whatever
Make me see. make me be
Make me understand
You're there for me
Take this life, I'm right here
Stay awhile and breathe me in
Take this life, I'm right here
Stay awhile and breathe me in
These thoughts
Burn a hole in my heart
These thoughts
Will keep me free and
If I ever, If I never
Make me understand the thought whatever
Make me see. make me be
Make me understand
You're there for me
Take this life, I'm right here
Stay awhile and breathe me in
Take this life, I'm right here
Stay awhile and breathe me in
Leeches
Leeches
Like leeches
In ignorance we trust
If you say this way
I will take that way
Fuel for the fire
Which I thrive
Spit me out
I'm glad I don't belong
Save me the speech
You'll be forgotten and gone
This burns
It rips, it hurts
Leeches
They preach to us
Words of wisdom
From blocked minds
Spit me out
When I don't belong
Save me the beat
You'll be forgotten and gone
This burns, it rips, it hurts
They make you bleed your turn
The chance of a lifetime
How does it feel to be alive?
-Solo-
A tear for the poet
That can't be heard
Praise the artist
That steals
Spit me out
I'm glad I don't belong
Give me the speech
You'll be forgotten, gone
This burns, it rips, it hurts
They make you bleed your turn
(It hurts)
The chance of a lifetime
<lyric>
Reflect The Storm
Shot for shot
Let the bullet penetrate me
Embrace me
Tell me stories of golden gods
The precision in your voice
Pierce the walls that I've build
Your eyes reach deep in me
Take a chance
They don't come
Much bigger than this
Dark Star spend
Another day with me
A dead surface
That doesn't reflect
The storm underneath
Take a chance
Bring me the calm
When there's nothing
Expose the dark side
Aching and emotional
Expose the dark side
Impossible to tame
Away from the eye of the storm
Away I find what is really me
Throw yourself
Into the eye of chaos
Infiltrate me
Sneak out before I awake
Take out the trash
And burn it
Try to find a beautiful
Place to lay
These fragile bones of mine
Away from the eye of the storm
Away I find what is really
Away from the eye of the storm
Away I find what is really me
-Solo-
When there's nothing
Expose the dark side
Aching and emotional
Expose the dark side
Impossible to tame
Away from the eye of the storm
Away I find what is really
Away from the eye of the storm
Away I find what is really
Away from the eye of the storm
Away I find what is really me
Dead End
Save all your prayers
I think we lost today
There's no morning after
And no one's around to blame
I'm not afraid to bleed
But I won't do it for you
We'll start among hypocrites
The melody of our time
So say goodbye to the world
We are the dead
Can't walk the earth
Scream your lungs out
Wait for laughter
You don't have to wait forever
It's the next disaster!
What decides when
You've lost the war
When the first man falls?
Or when they erase it all?
We're too numb to feel
The downfall starts right here
Hold your breath and swim
Swallowed my life's tear
In times of make believe
No one really seems to care
Maybe I should care less
'Cause I will die too
So say goodbye to the world
We are the dead
Can't walk the earth
Scream your lungs out
Wait for laughter
You don't have to wait forever
It's the next disaster!
What will it take for us to realize
The more we provoke
Winter will come twice
Save all your prayers
I think we lost today
There's no morning after
And no one's around to blame
Scream you lungs out
Wait for laughter
You don't have to wait forever
Here's the next disaster!
Scream you lungs out
Wait for laughter
You don't have to wait forever
Here's the next disaster!
Scream
We are ordinary people
We all exist with life
In the end we pray
Don't let them see
We're just living different lies
We're just living different lies
We're just living different lies
I say scream, you scream
I scream, we scream
But no one listens
Abuse to feel superior
Is it working for you
They scream, you scream
I scream, we scream
Abuse to feel superior
Is it working for you?
We're ordinary people
Mortal realms?
Say scream, you scream
I scream, we scream
But no one listens
Abuse to feel superior
Is it working for you
They scream, you scream
I scream, we scream
Abuse to feel superior
Is it working for you?
We're just living different lies
We're just living different lies
I say scream, you scream
I scream, we scream
But no one listens
Abuse to feel superior
Is it working for you
They scream, you scream
I scream, we scream
Abuse to feel superior
Is it working for you?
<lyric>
Come Clarity
-Solo-
Rushing through thirty
Getting older every day
by two drawing pictures
Of innocent times
Can you add colour
Inside these lines
I want you to lead me
Take me somewhere
Don't want to live
In a dream one more day
I want you to lead me
Take me somewhere
Don't want to live
In a dream one more day
Sure, if we change my perspective
I'm certain I will change today
I'm certain it will change our ways
When things fall into place
I want you to lead me
Take me somewhere
Don't want to live
In a dream one more day
I want you to lead me
Take me somewhere
Don't want to live
In a dream one more day
-Solo-
I want you to lead me
Take me somewhere
Don't want to live
In a dream one more day
I want you to lead me
Take me somewhere
Don't want to live
In a dream one more day
I want you to lead me
Take me somewhere
Don't want to live
In a dream one more day
I want you to lead me
Take me somewhere
Don't want to live
In a dream one more day
Take me somewhere
Don't want to live
In a dream one more day
Take me somewhere
Don't want to live
In a dream one more day
Vacuum
The yesterday we loved
Speak of tomorrow
The burden of man is that
Time never takes a pause
We live from Monday to Sunday
But we forget what it means
Then a ghost comes to visit and
We tell stories from tabloids
Call all your friends
Watch fake photos
From a made up vacation
Speaking in tongues
About ancient artefacts
We steal from beggars
And ask for understanding
We lie, rape, steal and murder
To make tonight's headlines
Trust the system
Make your contribution
Smile, applaud, love, hail
The weaker you get
The stronger they become
Listen in silence
Hear her voice
How far are we
Ready to take this?
Listen in silence
Hear her voice
Before it all crumbles
Lie, rape, steal and murder
Smile, applaud, love, hail
Gather in front of the TV
Exploding sympathy
The weatherman, our trust
Our punctual company
We steal from beggars
And ask for understanding
We lie, rape, steal and murder
To make tonight's headlines
Trust the system
Make your contribution
Smile, applaud, love, hail
The weaker you get the
Stronger they become
Listen in silence
Hear her voice
How far are we
Ready to take this?
Listen in silence
Hear her voice
Before it all crumbles
-Solo-
Lie, rape, steal and murder
Smile, applaud, love, hail
Listen in silence
Hear her voice
How far are we
Ready to take this?
Listen in silence
Hear her voice
Before it all crumbles
Pacing Death's Trail
Compassion, confession
Resolve and compromise
Dedication, domination
Please define the lines
Mutation innovation
Bear off to sun seen
Retaliation termination
Six lives and greed
Surrender to nothing
Run as far as you can
I'm trying to hold on
To what I believe in
But my heart, is in a coma
Integration redemption
A need to be seen
Gyrated disrespected
Stand in line
To be centre of scene
Surrender to nothing
Run as far as you can
I'm trying to hold on
To what I believe in
But my heart, is in a coma
-Solo-
Surrender to nothing
Run as far as you can
I'm trying to hold on
To what I believe in
But my heart, is in a coma
<lyric>
Crawl Through Knives
The black hole
Forever mine
I need the fear
Push me out
Ohh be brave
Show me signs
Should I feel shame for
The questions that I have?
If you could be
The things I need
(I'd crawl through knives
An inch per tear)
These knees
They bleed, for you
(Let the colour persuade
The hate that you fear)
Feed the lie
Force the reason
Leave me in doubt
Need some motivation
It's in my hands
The sky, so bright
It's burning
It's for me to decide
If flames will reach
Heaven tonight
It's in my hands
Nailed to the floor
Paralyzed
Emotions drifting
Searching the new
If you could be
The things I need
(I'd crawl through knives
An inch per tear)
These knees
They bleed, for you
(Let the colour persuade
The hate that you fear)
It's in my hands
The sky, so bright
It's burning
It's for me to decide
If flames will reach
Heaven tonight
It's in my hands
The sky, so bright
It's burning
It's for me to decide
If flames will reach
Heaven tonight
-Solo-
It's in my hands
The sky, so bright
It's burning
It's for me to decide
If flames will reach
Heaven tonight
It's in my hands
The sky, so bright
It's burning
It's for me to decide
If flames will reach
Heaven tonight
Versus Terminus
When all is said and done
We know what's right, what's wrong
But does it matter then
When all is said and done?
When all is said and done
We know who's left of one
But does it matter then
When all is dead and gone?
Seeing everything go
End of all things
And life as we know it
Shift your point of view
You've been warned
This one way ticket is for you
When all the lights go out
We know what that's about
But does it matter then
When all the lights go out?
When all that's left is lies
There'll be nothing
Left to realize
But does it matter do
They know they left its lies
Seeing everything go
End of all things
And life as we know it
Shift your point of view
You've been warned
This one way ticket is for you
When all that's left is lies
We'll see nothing
Left to realize
But does it matter do
They know they left its lies
Seeing everything go
End of all things
The life, that we know
Shift your point of view
You've been warned
This one way ticket is for you
<lyric>
Our Infinite Struggle
In a disaster story
A central conflict of primal rage
Usual sort of desperation
Characters remain the same
Never cut you out,
I cut you in!
Feeding on life leftovers
I am writing to you
You should realize
It hurts in me, too
Walk on broken glass
Is the pain the same at the end?
All the elements in life's complexity
Make our struggle infinite
Never cut you out,
I cut you in!
Feeding on life leftovers
I am writing to you
You should realize
It hurts in me, too
All the elements in life's complexity
Make our struggle infinite
Never cut you out,
I cut you in!
Feeding on life leftovers
I am writing to you
You should realize
It hurts in me, too (To cut you in)
Feeding on life leftovers
I am writing to you
You should realize
It hurts as I cut you in
<lyric>
Vanishing Light
A vanishing light
The end of a compromise
A fury and rage
A dream will be managed
Beyond getting them in lines
Learn to survive
A fine way to
Make friends and a place to call home
Take a picture and
Jump before we crash
Take a picture and
Jump before we crash
We'll slide away and
Learn your ways
We'll fire when ready
This is the race
To no mans land
But in no set direction
You're on the easy route
Money a front, theres no doubt
Take a picture and
Jump before we crash
Take a picture and
Jump before we crash
We'll slide away and
Learn your ways
We'll fire when ready
This is the race
To no mans land
But in no set direction
Its so, so sad
But pay no mind
Take a picture and
Jump before we crash
Take a picture and
Jump before we crash
We'll slide away and
Learn your ways
We'll fire when ready
This is the race
To no mans land
But in no set direction
Your Bedtime Story Is Scaring Everyone
Find time
And play with innocence
Like you ever would
I don't see you make any sense
I guess you deliver misery
Just like you should
9 o'clock
And you paint the skies grey
It's not your fault
We're the ones who betray
But how can you say it with such ease?
You want to take a stand or just please?
Your bedtime story is scaring everyone
But you make me understand the evil that men do
The evil that men do
