Hope, a new beginning Time, time to start living Just like just before we died There's no going back to the place we started from Hurt, falling through fingers Trust, trust in the feeling There's something left inside There's no going back to the place we started from All secrets known Calm, old wounds are healing Strong, truth is worth saving I want to feel alive There's no going back to the place we started from All secrets known

So I found myself in the sun, oh yeah A hell of a place to end the run, oh yeah California I'm fine, somebody check my brain California's all right, somebody check my brain Check my brain I'm walking the streets I creep and fall, oh yeah When she sang I answered the call, oh yeah California I'm fine, somebody check my brain California's all right, somebody check my brain Check my brain Tears that fill my bong Years expended gone I hung my guns and bought them away, oh yeah A trick of the trade and by the way, oh yeah California I'm fine, somebody check my brain California's all right, somebody check my brain Check my brain Tears that fill my bong Years expended gone Tears that fill my bong Years expended gone Check my brain (x3)

Last Of My Kind So young, so brazen, so unholy I come to you in painted skies Your broken teacher, ancient story The living challenge to their lies Trapped in the cold outside There ain't no shelter And they want to force my hand Until I take what I want And then break all the lies That they feed the fucking liars Smash all the temples And crawl through the rubble And cry to the fallen I'm the last of my kind still standing I'm alone Roll over all upon the hillside I am ??? what they throw away I go to sleep behind the eight ball I live to fight for one more day I'm trapped in the cold outside There ain't there no shelter And they want to force my hand Until I take what I want And then break all the lies That they feed the fucking liars Smash all the temples And crawl through the rubble And cry to the fallen I'm the last of my kind still standing I'm alone (The last of my kind still standing)

Time to change has come and gone Watched your fears become your god It's your decision It's your decision Overwhelmed, you chose to run Apathetic to the stunt It's your decision It's your decision You feed the fire that burned us all When you lie To feel the pain that spurs you on Black inside No one plans to take the path that brings you lower And here you stand before us all and say it's over It's over It might seem an afterthought Yes, it hurts to you know you're bought It's your decision It's your decision You feed the fire that burned us all When you lie To feel the pain that spurs you on Black inside It's your decision It's your decision No one plans to take the path that brings you lower And here you stand before us all and say it's over It's over
Hear foot steps creak the floor The shadows give away Someone outside the door Wont let 'em in Life damaged gives to crime A run down broke machine That steals your piece of mind Before you know it's gone Lay down Lay Silence burning on your tongue Keep us separate Hiding in the darkest slumber Boiling to the surface A looking in view too long on the outside Desperate plans make sense in the low light A looking in view too long on the outside Desperate plans make sense in the low light These things I hate in you Also reflect it seems Distortion laced with spite Teach you how to leave Lay down Lay Hiding in the darkest slumber Boiling to the surface Crawling on your skin, discomfort Makes you brake and run and stumble, fall A looking in view too long on the outside Desperate plans make sense in the low light A looking in view too long on the outside Desperate plans make sense in the low light It's why you never tell me (what's on your mind) It's why you never tell me (what's on your mind) It's why you never tell me (what's on your mind) It's why you never tell me (what's on your mind) A looking in view too long on the outside Desperate plans make sense in the low light A looking in view too long on the outside Desperate plans make sense in the low light It's why you never tell me (what's on your mind)

Run Run 'til you drop Hide Everyone knows We all trade in never befores Selling out for the score Pray Squeal when you're caught Cry It's not my fault Time to trade in never befores Selling out for the score It seems you prophesized, all of this would end Were you burned away, when the sun rose again Hate Long wearing thin Negative All you've been Time to trade in never befores Selling out for the score It seems you prophesized, all of this would end Were you burned away, when the sun rose again

You tried to kill me off Surprised, I remain A scale tips, impossible Afraid of my own name And I always paid attention to all the lines you crossed Forgive this imperfection it shows, and know I am the child that lives and cries in a corner Dies in a corner Alone inside your mind Intent obsolescence Built into the system I tried to shake it off You can't remove this stain A scale breaks, impossible Afraid we are the same And you never paid attention, to all the lines I crossed Forgive this imperfection it shows, and know I am the child that lives and cries in a corner Dies in a corner Alone inside your mind Hides in a corner Dies in a corner Alone inside your mind Intent obsolescence Built into the system

Just another lesson learned Wear a scar, a bore repeating Take a simple fateful turn Opened up to stop the bleeding Feeling like you never could Been the disconnected frying Hit the vein and struck a nerve Seeing through a self that's blinding Nowhere to buy in Most of us hiding Others are shining Just another brick you toss Stone the number one deceiver Multiply the added cost Easy to become a believer Feeling like you never could Been the disconnected frying Hit the vein and struck a nerve Seeing through a self that's blinding Nowhere to buy in Most of us hiding Others are shining You know when you find it In your darkest hour, you strike gold A thought clicks, not the be-all end-all You know when you find it In your darkest hour, you strike gold A thought clicks, not the be-all end-all Just another lesson learned... You know when you find it In your darkest hour, you strike gold A thought clicks, not the be-all end-all You know when you find it In your darkest hour, you strike gold A thought clicks, not the be-all end-all Just another lesson learned, yeah Just another lesson learned...

Take Her Out Here I am again I feel time is dragging on Are you getting tired of me? Wenching, overdrawn Faceless, blind Want to take her out again She's not just mine Want to take her out again In a body less embraced Thriving, I have grown Fickle, changing grip, replace Choking, take it all Faceless, blind Want to take her out again She's not just mine Want to take her out again Dedicated, true to form Still the only one Only guarantee Continue after I am done Faceless, blind Want to take her out again She's not just mine Want to take her out again

Give away your love and then remove another tomb Painted words adorn the walls, echoing untrue I feel cold... Promises abound, you rarely find it to begin Maybe I'm afraid to let you all the way in I guess so... I excuse myself I'm used to my little cell I amuse myself In my very own private hell I excuse myself I'm used to my little cell I amuse myself In my very own private hell Lately I'm beside myself, pretending unconcerned Standing at a corner where I threw you on a turn I'll move on... Flowers on a cross remain, marking an ending scene Damn it all if blood you spill, turn the grass more green Life is short... I excuse myself I'm used to my little cell I amuse myself In my very own private hell I amuse myself In my very own private hell

I don't want to feel no more It's easier to keep falling Imitations are pale Emptiness... all tomorrows Haunted by your ghost... Lay down, black gives way to blue Lay down, I'll remember you Fading out by design Consciously avoiding changes Curtain's drawn now it's done. Silencing all tomorrows, Forcing a goodbye... Lay down, black gives way to blue Lay down, I'll remember you
