Current mood:  tired
The digital release of our upcoming EP "Time Only Takes Lives" is coming in fast. We're hitting the studio one last time very soon to polish off some touches on the cd. We're planning on having this cd released in January. It will be a strictly digital release and it will be free. We'll have a download link available as soon as it is complete.
The tracklisting for the EP will be as follows:
1.) For Years To Come
2.) The Damned (Lead The Blind)
3.) Dead End Path
4.) Held Back
5.) I Am Who I Am
6.) End Of Days (Interlude)
7.) A Devil In The Flesh
Also, we're currently going through a bit of a line-up change at the moment and this will be our final release with our current line-up. We'll have even newer material in time for Spring Break with our new line-up, as well as a 2 week West Coast tour to be announced sometime in the near future.
Expect our debut full length to arrive around Summer time. The cd is tentatively titled "The Anchored Hearts Of Drowning Men" and will be concept cd based on the "end" of the world, the predictions behind it, the lives it may take by natural disaster, and the lives people will take from one another.
Enough with that, here's the completed cdep in lyric-form. You may recognize some of the songs from our previous demos. Like I said, the CD will be available soon and we'll post a download link as soon as it is complete.
1.) For Years To Come
Overcome and outlast the trends that pass by
It will fade in and out for years to come
Most have went back on every word that they said
The line has been drawn, the weak from the strong
The line has been drawn, the weak from the strong
This will not die, die, die, This will not die
2.) The Damned (Lead The Blind)
As you prepare yourself for the last days
You begin to search for your savior
But you've been blinded by the lies
Of modern man
Take the hand of the
Of the convicted
And the condemned
As the damned lead the blind
As this entire world grows cold
We begin to grow more apart
Don't be led astray
And don't be left for dead
Take the hand of the
Of the convicted
And the condemned
As the damned lead the blind
As the real truth begins to set in motion
The lies begin to unravel
And wings are ripped from angels
as time takes our lives
Wings are ripped from angels
as time takes our lives
The hollow, the broken
And the defeated
We are the damned
3.) Dead End Path
This death end path, one way to go
From the bottom
Straight to the top, I won't look back
I'm too far gone
I won't be beat, I will hold strong
Hold my ground
This dead end path, one way out I
Broke the chains
Breaking the chains, that held me back
Smashing through the walls
The walls that stood in my way
Don't try and hold me back
With bloodied, broken hands
I will hold strong
This world chewed me up
And spit me out
I'll pick up the pieces
And tear your world apart
From the inside out
Don't try and hold me back
Don't try and hold me back
Don't try and hold me back
With bloodied, broken hands
I will hold strong
This world chewed me up
And spit me out
I'll pick up the pieces
And tear your world apart
From the inside out
4.) Held Back
Nothing remains sacred
When nothing is held true
The only truth is my bruises
And my burns
My hands will stay calloused
My scars will never heal
I'm emptied of emotions
And dead to the world
I've never seen so clearly
Till I turned my back on this world
Blind to all that's around me
And clear to what I long for
To love is to be held back
The lessons of my past
Will strengthen my future
Nothing remains sacred
When nothing is held true
The only truth is my bruises
And my burns
My hands will stay calloused
My scars will never heal
I'm emptied of emotions
And dead to the world
I'm taking my life back
And living for myself
To love is to be held back
5.) I Am Who I Am
Wash me away but leave behind my sins
I put all that I had into my beliefs
My weakness overpower all my strength
And I will always be
I will always be incomplete
I ask you, Leave me and don't wait
I beg you, Let me die in my own way
Wash me away but leave behind my sins
I put all that I had into my beliefs
My weakness have become my strengths
And you won't keep me
You won't keep me incomplete
I ask you, Leave me and don't wait
I beg you, Let me die in my own way
I am who I am, I am who I am
No hope, No future
Surviving never occured to me
All I will be known for is what I did not do
6.) A Devil In The Flesh
Two black eyes and slit fucking throat
Are all that's left in the end
You're running in circles
And trapped inside your cage
Now you're haunted by demons
Within your living hell
It's too late to dream, you are consumed
Forget what it means to live, You're too close to death
Look up to the sky, this time will be your last
Choke on your blood, spit your last fucking breath
And say your last prayer, but it won't mean a thing
Open your fucking eyes
A shadow in your mind
A devil in the flesh
The monster comes to life
You're left with nothing
Forget what it means to live
Now you are under my control
Say your last prayer, it won't mean a thing
Now you know what it means to bleed

Lyrics
nothing remains sacred when nothing is held true
the only truth is my bruises and my burns
my hands will stay calloused, my scars will not heal
I'm emptied of emotions and dead to the world
I've never seen so clearly till I turned my back on this world
Blind to all around me and clear to what I long for
TO LOVE IS TO BE HELD BACK
nothing remains sacred when nothing is held true
the only truth is my bruises and my burns
my hands will stay calloused, my scars will not heal
I'm emptied of emotions and dead to the world
I'm taking my life back and living for myself
TO LOVE IS TO BE HELD BACK

Explanation
This song is about my involvement in the Las Vegas hardcore scene. For almost 4 years, I put everything I had into supporting the scene that I once loved. I put on countless shows, whether it be in my house or some hall. I booked bands I loved, and bands I disliked. But no matter many how much I did, it was never good enough. People always complained, but never wanted to do it themselves. To this day, I still find it in me to want to do this, but the heart is long gone.
I worried so much about hardcore that I forgot about myself. I have nothing to show for this. I've got a few good friends, but that's it. Most of my friends are two faced and fairweather anyways. I ruined going to college twice, never got a job and put off getting my license for too long, I was a loser.
My love for hardcore and the Las Vegas "scene" held me back from worrying about myself. This has nothing to do with being selfish. There's always a time to look out for number one, and I waited too long to do so.
