The Few and the Fallen
Show me what makes you stand up
When everything
Turns to ashes
Paralyzed
By my own senses
Holding me up by the throat
The signs all are overwhelming
Mistakes and mistakes building
Hold on to what you can when
Everything is stripped away
The Lies and fights and blood and tears will
Flood the lungs they breathe with
Hold on when the time comes
You'll see that
the pain was not in vain
Hole up in your own perception
Wrap yourself in the lies that shield you from
The life you've forfeit
For what?
Well not me not anymore
This time is mine
I will stand up fot
The ones who cannot stand themselves
(Chorus)
When your destruction comes will you crawl
On your hands and knees
When this moment comes will you
Stand up and Fight
Stand up and Fight
Or will you fall like the rest
(Chorus)
Will you let this moment define you?
Or will you let it break you
A Better View on a Bitter World
See through
This constant struggle
Blinding you from what
Matters the most
Escape the prison you're in
The walls of your regret
The freedom calling you
If only you will stand
Do what it takes to make you
Move on from what will take you
Away from everything
Think about the failures and
Release yourself from that fall
The poison in your words
And forget
The ones who've brought you there
One last chance to stop
the thoughts from overwhelming
This isn't the way
To let yourself go
Keep your head up
And take them
(Chorus)
Just keep it coming
Knock me down
And I won't let you keep me down
This time
This isn't what my lifes about
The final say is mine
Disgusted
With your deception
The signs ring out like
The lies you spit
(Chorus)
And I know what
It means to suffer
Through the pains and trials that
We must
Endure always
But to stand
Is to have survived.
The Mercy Untold
One life and another
Million to lose
This is where it all begins
Think about your life
And everyone you love
What would you
Give up for them?
I'll just ignore the lies
Pretend that it's alright
Just look past your face
I know it's not alright
How can I believe
In something that seems so naive
When even my own truths
Seem only to deceive
Me and I
Don't know
Where to hide
Just keep on running until
The thought subside
One more seconds gone
Another moment lost
Just think what could've been
But never mind the cost
I'll just ignore the lies
Pretend I know what's right
Even though I know
That I can't win this fight
The gears that turn with
A ticking vengeance in mind
Forcing bliss on us all
The echoes far behind
What is there to lose
You cannot stop these hands
Collecting on the debt that
Every life demands
So take advantage of
The time that we have left
Before your time will come
(Chorus)
To watch it all fall down
As it all fades away
Where do we go now
When we should have
Held on
But what matters now
As it all fades away
And the hand stops
I'll just ignore the lies
Pretend that it's alright
I'll just look past your face
I know it's not alright
Just let it go
Just let it go
Sit here and Wait
I know how hard
Is is to look past this
For something more to believe
and not my own
(Chorus)
You cannot stop
These hand from ticking away
They're counting down
Counting Down
A Heart Felt Forgery
Look me in the eyes
When you say those words
Something pure and Just?
No only hurt
Take a leap of faith
Only to fall face down
You showed me yourself
And I watched you fall down
You compromised yourself
And all of your beliefs
For what?
(Chorus)
Don't follow me
Cause I can see
You're not the one
You claim to be
And I will not falter
I'll watch you drift away
Into your
Own insecurity
And Broken is all you'll be
The words were right
But the intent was flawed now
The time was here
And just as quickly gone
(Chorus)
And I'll watch you bleed for me
And Broken is all you'll be
Look me in the eyes
When you say those words
Something pure and just
No
Only hurt
Take a leap of faith
Only to fall face down
You showed me yourself
And I watched you fall down
You showed me yourself
And I'll watch you bleed for me
The Masquerade
Reveal the poison
Covering
Everything
Like malice gripping it's hand
To choke out impurities
Zig zags coursing through our veins
What stand now to purify
Lead the thoughts just a bit further
To a conclusion you can't deny
It all come to this comes
To what is not defined
What you see worth living for
When death is justified
That's right
Just keep it in
Make sure it hits you right here
Push past the surface and
Reveal the
Fear
(Chorus)
You act like you've won and
There's Nothing to fear
There's no longer restraints
To hold you here
And I will define
What you'll never be
Never be
That's right
Just keep in
Make sure it hits you right here
Push past the surface and
Reveal the
Fear
(Chorus)
You act like you've won
And theres nothing
To fear
There's not longer restraints
To hold you here
And you'll go on with
Life day by day
Following suit
With the masquerade
Forged By Fury
Just one chance to prevent
This from happening
Hold the lines
Their footsteps are deafening
This is how it begins
The air thick with sweat and fear
No room for defeat
Men and gods will know what happened here
One man stand above
Casting shadows upon
The feeble truths
And all who are looking on
Now the silence consumes
One million all standing still
Ready to spill their own blood
In defense of
All that is just and right
Their weapons all held up high
Poised for the final fight
Their blood will
Flow
The Stars fade
Releasing the dawn
And it's fiery exposure
Of all that went on
The man stand
Observing the sight
The pain in his eyes
The only thing..
What is left when all is gone
And the bodies of the dead
Are all our children look upon
(Chorus)
You cannot see through
His weary eyes
To keep
His convictions true
The battle continues to grow
once more there is peace
But was it worth the price
The right slaying the wrong
Tightening the vice
The light grows dim
As the man turns
One step at a time
For he is not done yet
The night is young
This is his time to change it all
The gift this one man bears will help
Shape it all
Open up your mind
Accept the truth of things
The words he prophecies
Will for ever ring
When this clock
Strikes the hand of two
All show know and see the things I say are true
(Chorus)
The hand strikes
The sirens sound
Everything you once knew
Crumbles now
The light overwhelms
The man standing tall
Do you know who I am?
I am the voice
The redemption of all
The last judge and jury
The sword of the damned
I am forged by fury
