Breaking Point
When our revolution comes The gutters will run with champagne When our revolution comes The streets will be painted in violent colours And given new names And given new names When our revolution comes We shall stride down Heretic Boulevard And if we should die Before that great day Well, at least we tried And we would've died anyway

"I wrote this song about a coup;e of close friends dealing with the harshness and pain of substance abuse. This song remains very dear to me this day" <br/> (Brian Korban)<br/> <br/> Each breath a struggle<br/> Your dreams slip away<br/> Blinded, reality<br/> Gets harder and harder to face<br/> Killing themselves<br/> What can explain<br/> A moment of pleasure for a lifetime of pain<br/> Killing themselves<br/> It's such a waste<br/> <br/> [Pre-Chorus]:<br/> Dare to realize<br/> It's never too late<br/> You can't brush it off<br/> As just a dream<br/> It's never too late to change<br/> <br/> [Chorus]:<br/> ...And Kingdoms rise<br/> ...And Kingdoms fall<br/> Down will come baby cradle and all<br/> <br/> Lured in, prisoners<br/> To its domain, crippled<br/> It watches you bleed<br/> What a waste<br/> <br/> [Pre-Chorus]<br/> [Chorus]<br/> <br/> [Bridge]:<br/> Dependency grows<br/> Need more and more<br/> With nothing to show<br/> The endless war<br/> <br/> Life slips through your hands<br/> <br/> [Chorus]

Come to me Let me smell your scent I've waited far too long My bones are frail and fragile Take my heart I've felt everything that's left to feel Take my eyes I've seen everything worth to see Take my wooden mask of soul Take my ears I've heard everything that's left to hear Take my mouth I've said everything worth to say Take my wooden mask of soul To be free again

You're fighting far from the space around you<br/> And now you're holding your ground<br/> Your enemies keep circling around you<br/> You can't even make a sound<br/> <br/> [Pre-Chorus]:<br/> You're twisting your body inside out<br/> And now for what<br/> <br/> [Chorus]:<br/> Your conscience<br/> The Question<br/> Your Position<br/> The Enemy Within<br/> <br/> Well you think that it's all over<br/> And now you're on your way<br/> Your power trips keep winning you over <br/> Burning the books night and day<br/> <br/> [Pre-Chorus]<br/> <br/> [Chorus]

"Inspired by my house being broken into and robed multiple times as a kid (even on Christmas Eve one year) it's about the feeling of invasion, helplessness and loss. But on a happier note, it's my favorite solo on the record"<br/> (Brian Korban)<br/> <br/> Your reason I can't see<br/> No solution no happy ending<br/> In this world we hold so dear<br/> There's too much, too much fear<br/> <br/> If we build a new<br/> We build on trust<br/> But we're the fools to believe<br/> The reward we receive<br/> Disappears in the blink of an eye<br/> <br/> [Chorus]:<br/> Is there no love left in the world?<br/> <br/> Oh the tangled web we weave<br/> Conscience is non existing<br/> To be raped of all, only tears to fall<br/> Only to be scared, no mercy to be spared<br/> Time runs short<br/> <br/> [Chorus]<br/> <br/> Shameless world, at a loss for words<br/> Show pity for the thief<br/> What possesses torment<br/> Who allows it to be<br/> Who could have a heart, and tear apart<br/> Something sacred to the soul<br/> It's all bittersweet, the sincere are in the cold<br/> <br/> With time we all can change<br/> But what to do <br/> When time runs short

Sacred no warning<br/> Thinking no more, cause you won't last<br/> Falseness is around me<br/> Taking no more all men must clash<br/> Hey you, in the darkness<br/> Don't see the light, don't come too near<br/> Dazed and lifeless<br/> Don't mess around don't laugh with fear<br/> <br/> Shredding your victim, you rip like a knife<br/> Ripping no further, you take someone's life<br/> <br/> [Chorus]:<br/> Your life's<br/> Shifting fire<br/> Plans, buried underground<br/> Shifting fire<br/> Drowned without a sound<br/> <br/> So you've slowed down<br/> Say you can't last, it's all in the brain<br/> Morning, your head pounds<br/> Tells you to stop, you've gone insane<br/> Order after order<br/> You're to the edge, explosions near<br/> Built up, deep inside me<br/> Can't get the message clear<br/> <br/> Shredding your victim, you rip like a knife<br/> Ripping no further, you take someone's life<br/> <br/> [Chorus]<br/> <br/> Final destination<br/> You see the end, but death is here<br/> Soaring, revolution<br/> A bit fed up of fallen tears<br/> <br/> Hey you, in the darkness<br/> Don't see the light, don't come too near<br/> Dazed and lifeless<br/> Don't mess around don't fuck with fear<br/> <br/> Shredding your victim, you rip like a knife<br/> Ripping no further, you take someone's life<br/> <br/> [Chorus]

"My personal favorite. This song live was responsible for many a destroyed nite club. Railing, tables, & chairs we're no match for the swirling mass of bodies the song created.<br/> It was absolutely intense live!!!"<br/> (Brian Korban)<br/> <br/> Scream, let it build into a rage<br/> Like fanatics set loose from their cage<br/> Uncontrolled mayhem, on the floor<br/> And oh, you're dying for more<br/> <br/> [Chorus]:<br/> Feel the power rushing down your spine<br/> It's a sign, for madness to strike<br/> Let 'em bleed<br/> <br/> Scream, you withstand pain<br/> Electricity is flowing through your veins<br/> Like animals, you answer with a roar<br/> And oh, you're dying for more<br/> <br/> [Chorus]<br/> <br/> Hysteria is ruling your mind<br/> Pumping adrenaline increasing inside<br/> After all, isn't that what we are here for?<br/> <br/> Lunacy set in, have you gone overboard?<br/> Answer to question is your scream for more<br/> Fists in the air<br/> As the energy explodes in your head<br/> <br/> Let 'em bleed (Repeat)

"Rewritten and rearranged by producer Kurdt Vanderhoof (why? Just to change it he'd say) the new version was not a band favorite, and not well received by many at Metal Blade"<br/> (Brian Korbain)<br/> <br/> Always on her back<br/> Tearing her apart<br/> Ready to attack<br/> The one who broke her heart<br/> <br/> When she begins to trust<br/> Always seems to let loose<br/> Now the tables turned<br/> And you will pay your dues<br/> <br/> [Chorus]:<br/> Evil for evil<br/> <br/> Caught up in her spell<br/> There is nowhere to run<br/> She's after your soul<br/> Your fate has begun<br/> <br/> You were always on her mind<br/> She was willing to please<br/> And you left her behind<br/> Now you're on your knees<br/> <br/> [Chorus]<br/> <br/> You stabbed her in the back<br/> Now she's stabbing you<br/> Feel the blade cut right through your heart<br/> <br/> [Chorus]

"My anti-war song back in the day, it's kind of funny how the lyrics really hit home with all the current problems in the world today" (Brian Korbain)<br/> <br/> We see the time slip through our hands<br/> Hatred builds between foreign lands<br/> So much is spoken, still nothing is said<br/> Will the words rhyme, will we live to see the end?<br/> <br/> Wasted minds forge the battle plan<br/> Instead of taking the time to help unite man<br/> <br/> [Chorus]:<br/> What will it take<br/> To learn from our mistakes<br/> Destruction of the world<br/> Stand up, rise to your feet<br/> March through the streets<br/> Crusaders on a never ending search<br/> <br/> Why must we die to prove our faith<br/> Why must we cry it seems such a waste<br/> Oh, but man must have his rival<br/> To prove the strongest is fit for survival<br/> And why? <br/> Cause in battle he'd gladly die<br/> <br/> [Chorus]<br/> <br/> We close our eyes<br/> And try to hide<br/> From the truth we see<br/> And what it means, the end of mankind<br/> <br/> Sometimes it seems like no one cares<br/> That the fate of the world is in evil hands<br/> The voice of the people is silent<br/> What will be the outcome <br/> Only time will tell<br/> <br/> Hear our cries <br/> Realize <br/> There must be another way<br/> <br/> [Chorus]

Katie was a kid, I guess she hid her thoughts from everyone<br/> Went to school in at eight, she was never late didn't know the meaning of fun<br/> Every night Katie prayed to god above<br/> But her daddy gave her everything but love<br/> She woke up one day, said I am on my way<br/> Her mother read the letter, it did say<br/> I am on my way . . . . I am on my way<br/> (Chorus)<br/> Riding with the angels<br/> Riding with the angels<br/> Riding with the angels<br/> All around every boy in town tried to win her back<br/> It was a no go, cause she rode with joe he was the leader of the pack.<br/> People ran for cover when they rode into town.<br/> The night was black and raind on the ground<br/> Engines screamed, ready to go<br/> They knew the ride would be there last<br/> They're on their way . . . . They're on their way<br/> (Chorus)<br/> (Chorus)

Fire burns the fields beneath our feet<br/> The first was our last mistake<br/> Don't give in, save your prayers<br/> Because the rose has the power<br/> Enhanced by the thorns it bares<br/> (Pre-Chorus)<br/> The winds have changed<br/> The storm has passed<br/> (Chorus)<br/> Paint the shadows black<br/> Paint a portrait of faith<br/> To wash the colors away<br/> Run for shelter. The walls are closing in<br/> Expect no sympathy, its over before it begins<br/> No time to waste and no time to cry<br/> Blind faith of a dreamer leaves you questioning why<br/> (Pre-Chorus)<br/> (Chorus)<br/> The world is filled with fear,<br/> To make innocence quiver<br/> They may seem sincere, but there drifting like a river<br/> What happened to good beats evil?<br/> Do you find yourself ruled by ego?<br/> See their faces, green with envy<br/> Their trading places, haunted with jelousy<br/> (Pre-Chorus)<br/> (Chorus)
