AS BLOOD RUNS BLACK LYRICS

1. Intro

2. In Dying Days

Leaders are hard to come by, followers are omnipresent
Satisfied with a mediocre lifestyle
Satisfied

No one is setting a path for us to follow
No one's striving to be on top
No one is setting a path for us to follow we will all fall in the end
In dying days

The path has been set, you're leading far astray
Far astray

BRING THE MOTHER FUCKIN RUCKUS!

In darkness

Unfortunate as you may be, you'll never see the light
Someone must rise above, someone must precede
Unfortunate, you must precede
Unfortunate

Leaders are hard to come by, followers are omnipresent
Satisfied with a mediocre lifestyle
Satisfied

No one is setting a path for us to follow, we will all fall in the end
In dying days
As the time to rise approaches
No one will take responsibility

3. My Fears Have Become Phobias

A mass suppression depressed by life unsure what he's to live for
But then away came the better days when life opened its new doors
Struggling for a way everyday to live life not to fail but succeed
Overcoming on overwhelming load of power and greed
Break the chains
That grab one's soul
[chant:] break these chains, that take control
Break these chains, that take control

Wasting all that's left of a day
Watching time just fly away on his own
Dreams are surpassing him by
Why not live life to it's fullest and give it a try

How much does one simply have to conquer what he's become?
And how many others can say my fears have become phobias?
How much should one take for granted?
He's changed by life in order to see that he can succeed
And how can you?

We'll break the chains
We'll break the chains

A mass suppression depressed by life unsure what he's to live for
But then away came the better days when life opened its new doors
Struggling for a way everyday to live life not to fail but to succeed
Overcome

I will believe
I will believe
I will believe
I will succeed

4. Hester Prynne

Your vision of a new life was impure
Gave into temptation and threw away what you believed
Your immaculate state of mind was only temporary
Your faults, your flaws, got the best of you
Your commitment, your pledge to another human being
Was destroyed through curiosity
Your goal in life is far out of reach
You'll find yourself out of luck
Branded into your cest-doomestic livestock
Society kept track of your defiance
Branded into your chest-domestic livestock
Terror embedded into your thick mind
Bearing your emblem with pride
Plagues by its purpose in geness
Subsequently flaunting its meaning
Your vision of a new life was impure
Gave into temptation and threw away what you believed
Infestation
Roc-a-way
Your immaculate state of mind was only temporary
Your faults, your flaws, got the best of you
Got the best of you, got the best of you
Your guard was let down
Your past turned against you
Your guard was let down
Your past turned against you

5. Pouring Reign

[instrumental]

6. The Brighter Side Of Suffering

A struggle of change that is made
A wrinkle in time, battle of the brave
Fighting for hope of one's beliefs
Deceiving thought planted in minds
When hell freezes over will come the time
That one's point will have been made
There's shattered thoughts, and broken dreams
Wasted lives all for the brighter side of suffering

There's more than fighting for cause
There's fighting for what you believe
If there's a fork in the road of your path
One side needles the other's glass
At least you're walking instead of dragging on what's paved
Some see the glass half empty, others full
I just see the water's cold
And so is this world that we live in
And so I segregate
Separated from the ones without a cause
I segregate
I segregate
Would would you believe?
Could you believe?
There's more to this than what it seems
It's the brighter side of suffering
Poverty, injustice, struggling with the pain
A humble mind of wisdom and non-corruption
Would you believe?
There's more to this from this life
There's more to this
Finding a solution
Hope for tomorrow, for a better today
A new revolution
We stand and fight and face the pain

7. A Beautiful Mistake

I look into the eyes of a broken heart pride thats made of stone
Why am I destroyed by love, what made your self so cold?
Is it the darkness that covers yourself black?
This isn't the girl I know who stabbed me in the back
Facing you, your words like a gun,
One shot when you speak so pull the trigger and aim at me
I'm stuck in the middle of a cross fire,
Breaking me down is what you desire
I wont let you

So my soul will seek, inside of me,
My true self and what I believe
What's to become of ourselves?
Has love lost its meaning?

You showed me the way to love, and I came about,
Then you stole my heart then left me
I'm waiting for the day to come that you'll save me
So my soul will seek, inside of me,

My true self and what I believe
What's to become of ourselves?
Has love lost its meaning?

Pushed to the edge of this world, this is why I cant love
The moment I hope that you'll come rescue me
I will fall in love with you
Take me away with you
Take me away with you
Suicide in my mind cant change
I cant live without you

8. Strife (Chug Chug)

The risk of failure's what makes life worth living
A chance is given more
Doors can shut to make new beginnings
Another chance to explore
Explore
Strive for more

Would you carry out what you walked through?
Would you carry out and make a fucking move?
A plane life you live, walking on what you made
Took shit for granted, and threw it all away
Then along came 1 then 1 and 3
Then 1 more a set to see
A set to see
You tried to push us away, you pushed it away
You it all away, you pushed us away

The risk of failure's what makes live worth living
A chance is given more
Doors can shut to make new beginnings
And I'm not depressed from it
It's just your fucking testament
We tried over and over again, to pull you through
Now we're at the very end but where are you?

Another band, a fallen dream another outcast
Another 1 to a band, fallen dream, a fucking outcast
Now that you're gone we carry out this torch
The one you threw away with no remorse
No fuel to light the fire, but we're still going strong

[chant:] Going strong, going strong

9. Beneath The Surface

Judged by appearance, and misspoken words
Not the content of one's character, just by what you heard
Have you heard of rumors?
Some clash with lies
One degrades another out of despite
Inhumanity

[chant:] how can one
Claim to be perfect despite the things he has done
[chant:] how can one
Be so blind to see, you're no fucking different than me
Different than me
Maybe it's me, I'm not trying to change the world
But actions speak louder than words
And all in time I'll learn from the mistakes that are mine
But I wont forget those mistakes done unto me
Done unto me

Who am I to judge, use judgmental words?
What matters is appearance?
Or what you heard?
Live by what you have and believe
Judge by appearance, and misspoken words,
Not the content of one's character, just by what you heard

Have you heard of rumors?
Some clash with lies
One degrades another out of despite
Out of despite
I'm human
I'm not perfect just like you

10. Legends Never Die

A contribution made
A man-made self brigade
An imposition of that's dwelled
And hospitality far from reality
Casts neglecting yourself

And in the process of these lies
Heroes never live, legends never die

Preserve one's self, in safety for growth
Preserve one's self
Preserve one's self, in safety for growth
Preserve one's self

Finding strength in yourself
A massacre of your dignity
A fortune for someone else
Inspired by insufficiency
Interrogation and hypocrisy
Inspired by insufficiency
Interrogation and hypocrisy

And in this world full of lies
Heroes never live, legends never die

A masquerade
A disposition of everything that you believe
A front put for success
Only one could see
Only one can see

Preserve one's self in safety for growth
Preserve one's self in safety for growth
Preserve one's self in safety for growth
Preserve one's self in safety for growth
Why kill a dream?
Why kill a dream?
Feed off the weakness of your kind
Feed off the weakness for your prime
