I live, I stalk, I hunt, I eat With indifference for all I walk, I kill, I sleep, I breed Slowly taking control The sickest part of our species Ravenous to evolve We spread like a fucking disease No vaccine protocol And at the end of days This will be our legacy, we Kill, kill, multiply Until the skies are black and the rivers dry Take, take, we take our time We leave no one else behind Kill, kill, and deny Until the skies are black and the rivers dry Take, take, we take our time We leave nothing else behind I don't feel anything at all As rats gnaw on my bones I'm not made of the same things at all A mechanical heart The sickest part of our species Ravenous to evolve We spread like a fucking disease No vaccine protocol And at the end of days This will be our legacy, we Kill, kill, multiply Until the skies are black and the rivers dry Take, take, we take our time We leave no one else behind Kill, kill, and deny Until the skies are black and the rivers dry Take, take, we take our time We leave nothing else behind You cannot stop what never ends You cannot stop what never ends You cannot stop what never ends You cannot stop what never ends And at the end of days This will be our legacy, we Kill, kill, multiply Until the skies are black and the rivers dry Take, take, we take our time We leave no one else behind Kill, kill, and deny Until the skies are black and the rivers dry Take, take, we take our time We leave nothing else behind

I've talked the talk I've walked the walk It's taken ten fucking years For them to see I don't need their approval I've paid the piper, I've stayed my course Lived chomping at the bit With only blood, sweat and tears to adhere to Open your eyes and see that it's so menacing You need to realize that bleeding is a luxury Give 'til there's nothing left Value in every breath You need to realize that bleeding is a luxury Take it for granted Forsake the cost Wear a big shit-eating grin With only blood, sweat and tears to adhere to Now bear the burden to chase your fate Grind your teeth 'til it fucking hurts So they can see I don't need their approval Open your eyes and see that it's so menacing You need to realize that bleeding is a luxury Give 'til there's nothing left Value in every breath You need to realize that bleeding is a luxury Seize the day Take your beatings Lead the way or decay as you fall down You fall down Open your eyes and see that it's so menacing You need to realize that bleeding is a luxury Give 'til there's nothing left Value in every breath You need to realize that bleeding is a luxury It's a luxury Bleeding is a luxury

I'm gonna give this monster life I may not have the pieces I'll keep on going through the night To see you are left screaming Face to face The congregation of the damned Face to face Screaming while we can I get carried away Lost in a moment Torn into pieces A violent display I'm carried away Lost in a moment Searching for answers I'm lost in the fray This life's a case of do or die Sometimes I need no reason To lose myself in you tonight Right now's the darker season Face to face The congregation of the damned Face to face Screaming while we can I get carried away Lost in a moment Torn into pieces A violent display I'm carried away Lost in a moment Searching for answers I'm lost in the fray The congregation of the damned The congregation of the damned Face to face The congregation of the damned Face to face We're all screaming while we can I get carried away Lost in a moment Torn into pieces A violent display I'm carried away Lost in a moment Searching for answers I'm lost in the fray I'm carried away Lost in a moment Searching for answers I'm lost in the fray I get carried away Lost in a moment Torn into pieces A violent display I'm carried away Lost in a moment Searching for answers I'm lost in the fray

Don't give a shit about it Curl up, I start to doubt this Something has died in me today (smell the decay) I need some air around me Claw walls until my nails bleed Don't seal my coffin shut today Coffin nails So hard to pull How can I break free? From the ties that hold you down (break free) From the grips of loneliness (break free) There's something missing in my life that I'm running after (break free) Never meant to be hold down (break free) All I need is home right now (break free) There's something missing in my life that I'm running after Self doubt breaks down my resolve It cripples a part of my soul And masterfully I'll hide my pain (smell the decay) Dead eyes and a hollow smile Pitch black, my vision is gone And masterfully I'll hide my pain Coffin nails So hard to pull How can I break free? From the ties that hold you down (break free) From the grips of loneliness (break free) There's something missing in my life that I'm running after (break free) Never meant to be hold down (break free) All I need is home right now (break free) There's something missing in my life that I'm running after These coffin nails Are keeping me from the only thing I love This monster is holding me How will I break free? From the ties that hold you down (break free) From the grips of loneliness (break free) There's something missing in my life that I'm running after (break free) Never meant to be hold down (break free) All I need is home right now (break free) There's something missing in my life that I'm running after

We're all hell bent on destruction Trying to erase black spots on our souls Hide from a violent eruption Cataclysmic engulfing us all Lay down (lay down) Tonight (tonight) In front of the things That conquer us all Your body, it taunts me Your flesh is, oh so haunting Children of the night Throw your hands up in the air We all know we've lost the fight Hope dies out and we can see the end Black days begin Walk down this path of temptation Deny the flesh ignore whats crawling below Stay true (stay true) Stay cold (stay cold) In front of the things That conquer us all Your body, it taunts me Your flesh is, oh so haunting Children of the night Throw your hands up in the air We all know we've lost the fight Hope dies out and we can see the end Black days begin Your body, it taunts me Your flesh is, oh so haunting Children of the night Throw your hands up in the air We all know we've lost the fight Hope dies out and we can see the end Black days begin Children of the night Throw your hands up in the air We all know we've lost the fight Hope dies out and we can see the end Black days begin

This life starts With a heartbeat Is it beat, beat, beat Beat, beating, me down Like the loser I am? I can't help But to see That success scares The living shit out of me Like the loser I am Every time I walk away Every word I never say Restless, chasing shadows Choices, facing Gallows Are you hanging by a thread Or swinging from the rope? Don't think we don't see your scars Are you afraid of who you are? Are you afraid of who you are? Denial What subtle burn Is it burn, burn, burn Burn, burning me out Or feeding the flames? Spread out the ash Pretend to see That you can still Find some value in me; Or is it feeding the flames? Every time I walk away Every word I never say Restless, chasing shadows Choices, facing Gallows Are you hanging by a thread Or swinging from the rope? Don't think we don't see your scars Are you afraid of who you are? Oh my god What am I afraid of Success or not having what it takes? Oh my god I afraid of me And everything that brings Restless, chasing shadows Choices, facing Gallows Are you hanging by a thread Or swinging from the rope? Don't think we don't see your scars Are you afraid of who you are? Afraid of who you are Are you afraid of who you are?

Razor wire Gift wraps the things we've done Afterthoughts Of past storms weathered before Oh no, oh no! I watch the clouds roll in Oh no, oh no! It's happening again, I'll be Watching, waiting Dreadful, shaking Will the storm pass over us today? (Will lighting strike our sins away?) Watching, waiting Falling, shaking Will the storm pass over us today Or is our future looking grey? Aftermath Much worse then it was before Battle scars Some are seen and some are not Oh no, oh no! I watch the clouds roll in Oh no, oh no! It's happening again Watching, waiting Dreadful, shaking Will the storm pass over us today? (Will lighting strike our sins away?) Watching, waiting Falling, shaking Will the storm pass over us today Or is our future looking grey? You can't hide from thunder And I never thought We'd turn out this way, yeah! You can't hide from thunder Watching, waiting Dreadful, shaking Will the storm pass over us today? (Will lighting strike our sins away?) Watching, waiting Falling, shaking Will the storm pass over us today Or is our future looking grey? Hey! Hey!

There is no light in sight Only a tunnel of pain Only your legs will carry you Carry you to the end Live your life for yourself Or live for the struggle at best Just don't let it strangle you Just don't let it strangle you And after all this No one will carry you home And without a thought You let your guard fall to the ground Thought you were the king But now it's gone Taste the air as you pull it in your lungs Try to savor it for one more song The thick of the battle A metaphor for this life You never see it hit you Until it smashes you in the face You try as best as you can And life knocks you down again Just don't let it strangle you Just don't let it strangle you And after all this No one will carry you home And without a thought You let your guard fall to the ground Thought you were the king But now it's gone Taste the air as you pull it in your lungs Try to savor it for one more song Get up Get up now Get up right now I scream to myself Get up Get up now Get up right now I scream at myself And after all this No one will carry you home And without a thought You let your guard fall to the ground Thought you were the king But now it's gone Taste the air as you pull it in your lungs Try to savor it for one more song Try to savor it for one more song

Can't check myself at all Break my fist on the fucking wall Because raw instinct is all I know And it suits me just fine Convince myself that my Actions aren't received as spite Then passionately is how I'll go And it suits me just fine When I have everything I want Will I be good enough? But I can't have everything Cause nothing's good enough I'm insatiable And I hunt down my dreams It's the only thing I know Suddenly anger cripples Colours red everything around me Sometimes we hurt the ones that we love And it kills me inside Then I will pay a price, you see? The cost is overbearing The price I pay could be undreamed of And it fills me inside When I have everything I want Will I be good enough? But I can't have everything Cause nothing's good enough I'm insatiable And I hunt down my dreams It's the only thing I know I'm insatiable Don't look down on me I can bear this burden alone This constant dart craving Ripping apart my soul Cause nothing's good enough I'm insatiable And I hunt down my dreams It's the only thing I know I'm insatiable Don't look down on me I can bear this burden alone This constant dart craving Ripping apart my soul I'm insatiable

Used to be I could make the pieces fit Break the edges force fit all of this How could I ever be so wrong? At our base we are doomed once we begin Kinda makes you wonder "What's the sense?" How could I ever be so wrong? And I know that Fate keeps loathing I can't help (but go back to it) A flame still burns (at the back of it) And although (there is a lack of it) I won't forget how... Simply put, what's done is dead and gone Can't forget, not for very long There is no pride involved in love You can't manufacture happiness Try forever, you would be remissed There is no pride involved in love No pride involved And all that I know is that I know nothing I can't help (but go back to it) A flame still burns (at the back of it) And although (there is a lack of it) I won't forget how You made me feel alive But nothing lasts forever Yet something deep inside It takes me home again I can't help (but go back to it) A flame still burns (at the back of it) And although (there is a lack of it) I won't forget how You made me feel alive But nothing lasts forever Yet something deep inside It takes me home again And all that I know is that I know nothing All that I know is I know nothing

All hail the tip of the spear The misguided, unyielding force Unleashed abroad a foreign nightmare of pain Is this what we want for ourselves? Creep, crawl under your sheets Sneak its way through the back door Unaffected 'til we are affected Then we push for war, then we push for more Then we push for war Ravenous and racing forward Never looking back, we kill more than we need Knives out, we bare our teeth Strength and pain are what rules the world End of days and we're racing to red lights Does that make sense to anyone else? Deny any wrongdoing Pass the buck and then fake some more blame Life's a circle then we all reap the whirlwind Then we push for war, then we push for more Then we push for war Ravenous and racing forward Never looking back, we kill more than we need Gluttonous we feed our power Never looking back, we kill more than we need What goes around comes around And around and around And hateful young men Turn to old hateful men What goes around comes around And around and around And hateful young men Turn to old dead men Ravenous and racing forward Never looking back, we kill more than we need Gluttonous we feed our power Never looking back, we kill more than we need We kill more than we need

Too unafraid of what's to come I hit the ground and run Not sure what's coming next And never looking back Hollow nights to empty days Something had to change Before it gets too late and there's no turning back One by one we fit and then we fall One by one we fit and then we fall Lonely, is this what we've become? So lonely, fragile and unloved Lost inside ourselves and blindly staring at the sun So lonely, is this what we've become? Line them up they fall Something to live for Not sure who's coming next But never looking back I want something more Something to live for Before it gets too late and there's no turning back One by one we fit and then we fall One by one we fit and then we fall Lonely, is this what we've become? So lonely, fragile and unloved Lost inside ourselves and blindly staring at the sun So lonely, is this what we've become? One by one we fit and then we fall One by one we fit and then we fall Lonely, is this what we've become? So lonely, fragile and unloved Lost inside ourselves and blindly staring at the sun So lonely, is this what we've become? Is this what we've become? So lonely, fragile and unloved Lost inside ourselves and blindly staring at the sun So lonely, is this what we've become?

It started with a kiss and turned out something else The blood coursing through my veins I think of no one else I never believed in much but I believe in this I'm incomplete without you, I'd kill to taste your kiss I'm lost and lonely Scared and hiding Blind without you When the the world comes crashing down And the skies begin to fall (I'll wait for you) When the days grow old and long And my skins turns into stone (I'll wait for you) When the pain it seems too much And my heart starts beating out of touch I don't need a thing I'll wait for you It's all so different now, emotions burn me out I have a lifeless touch, this distance leaves no doubt I fear it all too much but part of me believes As the years pass away you made me recognize I'm lost and lonely Scared and hiding Blind without you When the the world comes crashing down And the skies begin to fall (I'll wait for you) When the days grow old and long And my skins turns into stone (I'll wait for you) When the pain it seems too much And my heart starts beating out of touch I don't need a thing 'cause I'll wait for you Yeah... 'cause I'll wait for you... When the the world comes crashing down And the skies begin to fall (I'll wait for you) When the days grow old and long And my skins turns into stone (I'll wait for you) When the pain it seems too much And my heart starts beating out of touch I don't need a thing Oh, no I don't need a thing I'll wait for you

Alone! Empty, and searching again I don't see any other way... The brave! Hollow, and brake again I don't feel anything but pain... I dream of numbness To ease the pain I beg for sleep To take... to take me away! Another night Another empty avenue Is waiting for you And calling me Another night Another empty boulevard Is waiting for you And calling me Desperate, clear Quiet thin air I feel that this is all in vain... Beating for change Empty, Cold, Stare I dream of numbness To ease the pain I beg for sleep To take, to take me away Another night Another empty avenue Is waiting for you And calling me Another night Another empty boulevard Is waiting for you And calling me Lift, More Lift, More, Bear Lift, More, Bear, Sleep To keep me up at night I dream of numbness... To ease the pain... I beg for sleep... Take me away... Another night Another empty avenue Is waiting for you And calling me Another night Another empty boulevard Is waiting for you And calling me Calling me It's calling me Calling me It's calling me
