Crushing Me
05:06
|
|||
|
All I know
are the pin pricks of pain
that control me
that hold me
from reaching the end
I push it aside
in my mind
eating energy
it’s taking a toll
I’m losing
I’m losing control
These feelings are crushing me
The anger, the pain, the loss is too great
These feelings are crushing me
The anger, the pain, the loss is too great
Your hands are soothing
your voice is calming
it takes the red haze away
You light my darkest path
and help me find the way
but your ghost is fading
and your body is gone
My memories are slipping away
I was about to give up hope
when you came to me
when you saved me
These feelings are crushing me
The anger, the pain, the loss is too great
These feelings are crushing me
The anger, the pain, the loss is too great

Haunting Heart
06:11
|
|||
|
My strength
It comes from being happy to be alive
for I could have died
so many times
the simple things
are getting so complicated
thinking too much
and feeling not enough
I am the wind that is
stuck in the tornado
Looking for freedom
looking for your touch
Your hands are calling
Your heart is still haunting
Looking for freedom
looking for your touch
Your hands are calling
Your heart is still haunting me
I'm about to fall
and it seems that you don't care at all
self absorbed
and self contained
you keep yourself far away
The dreamer in me
is searching for reality
but all I get is a slap back
from you
I am so tired
of trying to break through
Looking for freedom
looking for your touch
Your hands are calling
Your heart is still haunting
Looking for freedom
looking for your touch
Your hands are calling
Your heart is still haunting me
Your words are like knives
when you say goodbye
Cutting through my pages
cutting into my brain
Looking for freedom
looking for your touch
Your hands are calling
Your heart is still haunting
Looking for freedom
looking for your touch
Your hands are calling
Your heart is still haunting me

My Destroyer
05:08
|
|||
|
I’ve been the devil
I’ve been the queen
I tried to give you
everything you need
I am a liar
I am a saint
I give you all
of my inner hate
I just try to keep it all alive
Your destroyer
is my desire
What you see kills all of me
Your desire
Is my destroyer
What you see Kills all of me
I’ve been your demon
I’ve been your prince
kept the dreams at bay
and promised lots of nothing
I am a poet
I am all fear
These hands crush it all
with eyes full of tears
I just try to keep it all alive
Your destroyer
is my desire
What you see kills all of me
Your desire
is my destroyer
What you see kills all of me
You watch and can’t be seen
You’re closing in on me
Destroying all I am
Controlling all you can
Your destroyer
is my desire
What you see kills all of me
Your desire
is my destroyer
What you see kills all of me
Your destroyer
your desire
My destroyer kills all of me
Your desire
is my destroyer
What you see kills all of me

Beautiful and she was
In the moonlight
Beautiful in the sun
Swimming

And she was

And she was
Round my head
Swimming dancing

she was
Beautiful in the sun
Swimming dancing

This Hell
05:16
|
|||
|
Anger depression despair
takes up all the air around me
crushing all who care
My back is breaking
under the weight
my heart is aching
too many tears too much too late
My eyes are blinded
My fears are burning
My tears are driving the hate
This hell is what I make it
This hell is what I see
This hell is made for all of us
this hell inside of me
People are dying
people are suffering
your phone is more important than your dreams
fear of the other
fear of the unknown
you'd rather kill your brother
than give a piece of your home
you're piling on top of each other
watching everyone bleed
This hell is what you make it
this hell is what you see
this hell is made by all of us
this hell is what you feed
In this hell
anger depression despair
In this hell
you avoid the signs to beware
Push it under
push it deep
push it far below
and keep it beneath
it still won't disappear
won't go away
it just fuels the fire
for another day
This hell is what you make it
This hell is what you see
This hell is made for all of us
this hell inside of me
In this hell

Of Man and Machine

Proprietary programming
Installed at birth
Pay rent for your thoughts
Lease your soul
Raise your worth
Privatize your prayers
pay for time
at the altar of despair
free thought is a crime
all we want is a solution
all we want is some relief
But there is only the purity
Of realizing grief
microchipped and scanned
there is no end at hand
electrocutionary troubling
another signal begins
a binary language
of sin
and we can't see within
all we want is a solution
all we want is some relief
But there is only the purity
Of realizing grief
Fall down the spiral
resistance is futile
One mind, one thought
a single piece of code that becomes
a true awakening
it's finally time to give in
and kneel to submission
and let us win
all we want is a solution
all we want is some relief
But there is only the purity
Of realizing grief
all we want is a solution
all we want is some relief
But there is only the purity
Of being machine
(resistance is futile
resistance
resist us)

The Harm Anthem
03:48
|
|||
|
She looks in the mirror
Can't see past the scars
Tries to shut out the words
That feel like burns from cigars
Daisy's on the floor
Her heads on the door
Holding on to her heart
She can't take anymore
Daisy's in chains
Daisy's in chains
She's at war with herself
And going down in flames
She sings Ashes, Ashes
The girl falls down
Can't get back up
Cause she's coming unwound
Daisy's razor blades
Daisy's cutting games
Runs across hidden skin
Now to hide the blood stains
Daisy's in chains
Daisy's in chains
She's at war with herself
And going down in flames
Put them all away
Time to put a smile on her face
Opens up the door
Makes sure nothing's out of place
Daisy's in chains
Daisy's in chains
She's at war with herself
And going down in flames
Daisy's in chains
Daisy's in chains
Dreaming of the day
She can silence the pain

Damaged
04:33
|

|
I got these chemicals running in my blood
living and changing me
building blocks
of broken dreams
they’re changing me
these chemicals burning through my veins
distorting my body
I’m in pain
I’m born disillusioned
and grown in the ruin
I’m damaged
I’m damaged
I’m damaged
Damaged and drained
My body is killing me
twisting my form and my dreams
my heart gets weaker every day
with the anger and the pain
I cannot change this life
no matter how hard I try
I’m living with the feeling
that some day soon I will die
I’m damaged
I’m damaged
I’m damaged
Damaged and drained
I wake up in the morning and I say to myself
Just breath in
My eyes open up and I say to myself
just breath out
I got these chemicals running in my blood
living and changing me
building blocks
of broken dreams
I’m damaged
I’m damaged
I’m damaged
Damaged and drained

I'm Still Alive
04:25
|

|
Angels calling for my blood
Destroying peace that holds someone
Someone beside me
someone inside me
Everything’s gone in the colors I choose
I won’t move the mountains for you
I’m still alive
Just look at me
These scars have cut to the inside
And my fears still bleed
I’m still alive
Jut look at me
These scars have healed on the outside
but these fears still bleed
And it’s finally come down to this
breaking down the ones we miss
We fear all that we can see
You fear all of me
I feel the burning
I feel the rage
I feel the need to break this cage
I’m still alive
Just look at me
These scars have cut to the inside
And my fears still bleed
I’m still alive
Jut look at me
These scars have healed on the outside
but these fears still bleed
Simple shadows passing by
can you see the deaths that I survived
The simplest truth
the quietest scream
the loudest heartbeat
that you’ll ever see
The strangest story
most colorful dream
these are all stuck inside of me
But I’m still alive
Just look at me
These scars have cut to the inside
And my fears still bleed
I’m still alive
Jut look at me
These scars have healed on the outside
but these fears still bleed

Rip It Away
05:16
|

|
Every morning
they all say
Suck it up
cause We’re all dying anyway
and you still have Dreams of white
and Dreams of saviours
but we’re all just dust
No angels
just strangers
You take it away
You rip it all away
rip it away from me
You take it all away from me
this loss is too big
Too big for your religion
cause I’m wounded
I’m pained
I’m distraught
This way
I tear at the feelings
Crying in this hole
I’m alone
Dying Alone
You take it away
You rip it all away
rip it away from me
You take it all away from me
I can’t stand this burning
I can’t stand the touch
Don’t try to save me
I’ve lost too much
we’re all just dust
I’ve lost too much
You take it away
You rip it all away
Rip it away from me
You take it all away from me
You take
You take it away
You rip it all away
Rip it
Rip it away from me
You take it all away

Obedience
05:15
|

|
In the silence of serenity
We get lost
in what we cannot see
your feet are planted on this ground
and your head is lost high in the clouds
Turn around
Keep walking backwards
The sun
is blinding
And you can’t think
About running
keep running
keep running from the answers
Simple truth
simple justice
keep it here
You keep running from the answers
Just keeping it real
I am the problem
I am the key
I am the one who won’t simply be
I am the privilege
in the chosen few
Stuck on the bottom
and pulled down
Kept in the darkness
I’m drowned in the crowd
If I take this remedy
Will you all see
The captivated hypocrisy
Of my independence
my stubbornness
And your need
To run
keep them running
keep them running for the answers
Simple truth
simple justice
Just keep it real
I am the problem
I am the key
I am the one who won’t simply be
I am the privilege
in the chosen few
Stuck on the bottom
and pulled down
Kept in the darkness
I’m drowned in the crowd
Pull me up and pull me out
Keep pouring it on
pull me up and pull me out
Or just let me drown

You Dumb Sick
03:14
|
|||
|
I’ll start out by saying
condolences
You never did anything half-assed
But at the rate you lived it
You knew it wasn’t gonna last
A slow suicide of abundance
Gluttony was your specialty
What you couldn’t consume
Knew only your brutality
A slow suicide
A slow suicide
You dumb sick fuck
Narcissistic mental case
You really had so much potential
But you let it go to waste
A slow suicide
a slow suicide
Never left a trail of papers
Never the one to blame
You Caused more drama than anyone
made others feel ashamed
Shove another person down
Make others feel your hurt
You bet your ass I’m glad you’re dead
I turned you back to dirt
a slow suicide
a slow suicide
You dumb sick fuck
Narcissistic mental case
You really had so much
But you let it go to waste
You dumb sick fuck
a slow suicide
slow suicide
slow suicide
You dumb sick fuck
Narcissistic mental case
You really had so much
But you let it go to waste
You dumb sick fuck
Narcissistic mental case
You really had so much
But you let it go to waste
slow suicide
slow suicide
slow suicide
