1) Slings and Arrows
another night goes by and im stuck wondering why, what will tomorrow bring, body's numb and i dont feel a thing. as you scream from the side, wasted youth, wasted life, how can i help if you dont try, stand aside or get buried alive. one day im just going to snap. breaking point, cant turn back, talk is cheap, you bring us down, when times got tough you just backed down, you only waste your breath. i wont give in, i'll fight to the death. it's over now, ive had enough. you walked away. i called your bluff
2) The Cure
i write, you read, you dance, i scream, retain a lifestyle they cant reach. cowards lurking in my shattered window as deciet and lies knock at my door. shackled down i feel the sickness growing when wisdom is seeping through the cracks. concept erased. pain struck embrace, something's for sure, we are the cure. i want to know just how long it takes to keep running from something you cant control. feel that? something's for sure, we are the cure.
3) Red, Black and Blue
the tensions running so thick, tough as nails, gotta break it with an icepick. non stop gotta get what i want as i take another step and dip around the corner, so choke on the pistol smoke, uh! pardon me, as i clear my throat. you wage a war that warrants no worries. a coward's shrug. bank bullets and stories, your lies they victimize but i am the lion. where i spit a fire starts. outspoken hearts, restless as sharks. i smell the fear on your breath with salvation your soul i will test. and now the fury starts to shake me. heres to the black and the blue, you die for me, and i die for you. no sympathy. fury deilver me.
4) Set the Stage
set the stage the ambush begins throught the windows the doors we're all breaking in did you think we would let you win, in fear you froze and slow goes your grin. satisfaction of defeat calms the plenty for a while. the decay of a sepices cures this world's will to die. i live my life by choices, never thought to question why. no more remorse in sight. you know it's all i have. the sky in reach. my eyes start the trembling.
5) Ripped to Bone
i too refuse that empty dream, borin in caste with hope in hand.locked in cage and told to sing. i'll break the bars that break and bind break your words before the suffocate me.your destruction ranks second to none. stepping on the weak. always watching out for number one. my flesh is ripped right off the bone to feed the mouths all but my own. all but my own. flesh ripped from bone.
6) Tight Rope
walk another day on the tight rope, say your prayers hold on tight. did you know that they live on the wire? did you know that they waste so much time? its time to lose you break youll pay for you mistake. in tears for years endless sadness is broken. i think you must be joking the sorrow is endless it's blinding the madness.
7) Transistor
resist. the world you see it just aint right. we're gonna burn it, we're gonna burn it tonight. we've got these punks locked in our sights. the ignorance i pledge my life to fight. transistor, resistor. send me a death wave. they destroy s from the inside out. let the virus corrupt us throughout. resist. resistance.
8) War is hell
wakeup i wipe the sleep from my eyes. with a breath of strength. im late, thats no surprise. at war with time, alarms like land mines. your face shows it all with each cut and scar. it takes strength to reain in these times of war. youll never recover so dont look back. just jeep your chin up high and back teh next attack. enemies drop bombs of fire again. full fledge front line with all of my friends. the size of your heart determines who wins, modern day life. let the fury begin. war is hell.
9) Safety Off
the warriors. bringing the hardcore reality. 2004, ready to explode.
10) Scene Celebrity
you paid your dues, now you think that we owe it to you? wake up from yourself righteous haze. and realize you mean nothing. a worthless charade. you're a scene clebrity, you now right to look down on me. harcore, my life my pride. how can you sit back and judge my life as a lie? one more time, pushed aside my life and my pride. special no thansk that you put on the side. taking more than what you put in. you have to act tough. talk tough, to hide whats inside. my life, my pride.
11) Lightning Strikes
lightning strikes again. to waken life within, a shock runs through our hearts, our veins are torn apart. and into nightwe fled, thoughts of home inside our heads. we found the latches locked.in the rain of all night we knocked. and knowcked and no one came. forgotten voices voiced in ein, truth did free my mind. fear locked the door behind, and now we're all alone. outside the walls we once called hime.
12) More than Metaphor
tonight. this life. this plan. this fight. we found our rhythm in the rage. tht burning light that needs no stage. though left with nothing you forget. through nothingness we smash. rework. to build upon whats real. like setting sund the depserate glory fades. old likes so sweet can taste so true. but strip away a death obsession, a gimmick, a clever cloak. and of your brave now broken world what will remain? this war means more than metaphor. this firght is all too real. the fron lines are right here..
13) Vital Eyes
high spun language, but we're not hearing the words. it spoke to us at birth, it said "men, when something starts there's got to be an end." the mind, it suffers more. heads up to the sun when the world turned cold. blind as a bat to forever unfold. the lies that were taught to the young by the old. there hearts are stone but once gold. there eyes are wide, their tongues are tied, they're sold. bound and gagged and thrown into the cold. living suicidal, trying to understand, this world's on wheels. build it up, watch it break. giving up, there's no way. listen up, You've got a lot to learn. Inside lies a purpose driven life. high spun language, but we're not hearing the words. it spoke to us at birth, it said "men, when something starts there's got to be an end. cycles die and then begin again. pinned by inner demons. sing the anthems call: we're born, we lie, we live, we die. (chorus) living life in denial of death, fearing death in denial of life.
14) Foreign Pain
trouble. looking at a heart once gold, life already lost. beginning to the end (a mental holocaust). and it's so depressing, worrying. truth is hard to find. trouble here! still seeking, repeating. still i gotta strive. i gotta strive, i gotta try. engaged with foreign pain. bombs dropped right through your brain. life's hard you know the game. i try but still it rains. hearts just explode (awake i try to see). lock and reload (inhale this life i breathe). searching, seeking, now exists a problem somewhere deep inside, now i gotta know. (chorus) and i cut through snakes with deadly knives of mind. and the serpents’ fangs again will kill in time.
