1. Beautiful Things

Are you okay?
Cause I need to know babe
Cause a lot of things changed
Why does this keep happening?
Are you okay? wait
I don't need to hear a damn thing
That's already been said before
I had your love once, I don't want it no more

With nowhere to run, and no way to hide
You'll fear what they see inside
Those who don't learn will burn out of spite
Rise up from the ashes of their lives

On and on, over and over again
But not this time, but not this time
I refuse to go through the motions

Every time I try to make it out alive
You just pull me in
Now I'm tired of all the lying and fighting,
Hoping and trying
I'm giving up to giving in

I live my life walking on the line
Feel like I'm running out of time
It's not like you seem to care
Stuck out in the middle of nowhere

With nowhere to run, and no way to hide
You'll fear what they see inside
Those who don't learn will burn out of spite
Rise up from the ashes of their lives

Locked away in our tortured minds
We come to find that we've become
The ghost in the reflection
Am I alive or is this a lie?
So tell me, tell me, can you feel my heartbeat?

Do your worst
May your hypocritical lies
Fill with light and illuminate and burn
Lighting up the night for the sake of lessons
To be learned I'm pulling back now
I want to know how you thought this would work out
Lives were affected, hearts infected
This my confession of our disconnection

I felt this way in life too many times in my mind
I'm all out of love, I'm bottled up
Nobody's home, but I still keep the lights on
And I guess it's better to know just what you want to say
But all jokes aside just open up your eyes, come on
Just open up your eyes and see what's going on.

With nowhere to run, and no way to hide
You'll fear what they see inside
Those who don't learn will burn out of spite
Rise up from the ashes of their lives

2. Change the Scheme

Yeah
The tyrant's words are ending lives
I'll take him by the throat
Cause I watched you abandon
Every fucking thing that you believe in
I'm not just a livid fool
But I'll shatter the idols that you breath for
This time I'll take what's mine
A breath for a breath, an eye for an eye
And we'll leave nothing left inside your mind
But a remnant of hope and your will to survive
Peel away the skin that you've been wearing
Wolf seen as a sheep led into slaughter

You're the reason that my blood runs cold
I'd give up everything just to have you know
What I'm feeling and thinking

You disappoint me with these lies that you wear so well
You're disguised, trying to hid, trying to be someone else
Don't forget it you'll soon regret it
You feel that you're running from
Someone we who's trying to help

I swear it on my life, my body as my oath
I've been trying to find a way for you
To run away and make your way back home

I'll measure the wealth of
The soles, of the soles of your shoes
Of the lives that you walk through
But by the time I'm through with you
You will face your judgment with no excuse

Purge. Purge.
Here comes the cleansing
Purge. Purge.
Take back your life

Open your eyes and let this shake you
Gotta learn to free your mind
Ignore all the glances from the wicked eyes
We've strayed so far from the grand design
And the end is coming soon we can see the signs

Lord know I'm a restless fool
Cause I only want what's best for you
I try to hide it in and let you know
Guess I never really learned to let it go
It's frozen in time, frozen still in my mind
So why do I keep wishing for this nearly shattered vision, oh
Push the limits of the world we live in
Take what it gives you then make it what you want
All it takes is for you to believe it
Whether you're ready or not
Just tell me

You disappoint me with these lies that you wear so well
You're disguised, trying to hid, trying to be someone else
Don't forget it you'll soon regret it
You feel that you're running from
Someone we who's trying to help

I swear it on my life, my body as my oath
I've been trying to find a way for you
To run away and make your way back home

When will you see this is not what you're meant to be?
When will you see you're fucking up your life?
You know your prize, now make your sacrifice

3. Deadlocked

Take another step into the pit
You're meeting death talking
Game, set, match bitch
Fingers on the casket
What?!

With the blade of woe the sensatiable
Cuts down the traitor when he feels
The anger, blade sharp as razor
He'll remember all the sins
And the shit he's gotta pay for

Breathe out,
The disease inside eats away at the man you plan to be,
Not much has changed with the way you
Play these games with those you love

I try to see things through your eyes
So I can understand who you are and where I stand

For what it's worth
I want to know you better
You've got me feeling like
It wasn't worth the wait, I should've told you
For the sake of saving time

Crystalline eyes where the real truth hides
False figure for the blind with a bloody compromise
(deceit in that you speak)
(for all the people you meet)
With all the words that you have spoken
Shot around like a broken lie
So sharp so dangerous
Lying to the world is just a game to us
I won't be fooled cause I've learned along the way

You gotta go in on your own
You gotta trust in what you know
You gotta somehow find somehow find some way to solo learn all the ropes
Will you decide what it is for me to stumble on
All that you hide
All of your senseless pride

I see blood in your eyes tonight

For what it's worth
I want to know you better
You've got me feeling like
It wasn't worth the wait, I should've told you
For the sake of saving time

Don't think you're dead when you're just hopeless
I see the pain in your eyes
And I know we've been addicted
My veins are raging

We're not dead yet and we can be saved
But we're chased by the labels that we claim
Labeled deceiver

Deceiver… deceiver… deceiver!
The bones of those they betrayed
Have now paved the way

Brace yourself, I'm afraid we've been mislead,
Misguided by idle hands,
Where are you now?
Cause I've finally figured out
That this road that you led me down
Goes to a place I knew I'd never get out
Alive… alive… I'm burning from the inside.

4. Dream Eater

Dream with your eyes open,
Dream with… dream with…
Dream with your eyes open

Every little thing that you say to me
Is breaking me inside and I can't find the piece
Even though I've been picking up all the pieces
(gotta put it together)
Walking around in the darkness
My love is gone, my dreams are haunted
By a ghost of what I really was

This tattered soul and
Broken bones have been haunting me
But I can't stand the sight of this man that I claim to be,
Why was I set free?
Fuck! what have I become, I'm not the enemy?
Walking around I lost a piece of myself
My true identity

I finally opened up to
The sky that I've been staring at
Wondering what would've become of
What we thought we had when we were young

I stand for myself, but I wasn't really ready
To be rid of who I was
I stand for myself, I may not do everything right
But at least I know who I am

I gotta learn to fight my own fights
Gotta learn to grab the light to light my own life
(live it right)
Making decisions, making them tonight
What's the last thing that you would do
Before you start your new life?

I don't know who I am anymore,
My mind is clouded, what have I become?
I pray to god for guidance on this journey
I've been given my sense of being punished and forgiven
Stay away from my path and
Maybe I will come back to you
When I have found myself

I've been searching for something
I lie awake; lie awake to find out where I've been
I won't let you remember me

My heart is torn, what can I say?
I stayed for myself and now
I'm ready to be rid of who I was
So let's make this our night
We only get one in our whole life
Don't let the world fall fast asleep
It's our chance, it's our chance

I'm lost in the words that I speak
Like whispers and lies I can't seem to
Keep hidden away from the world
And everyone that needs me to see them clearly
I'm better off waiting for long enough
The gates around my mind have opened up
As I make my through
You will see something that you have never known

This is the rebirth of a new life
I'm only a dreamer, who sleeps with closed eyes.

5. Shadow Walker

What's the point?
Are you even listening to my voice?
Or has it just faded away?
I wanna know, did you comprehend
Or was my breath wasted?
How could you be so hollow?

Don't waste my time
With this petty shit that this world claims to see
You feed but you bite my hand
Despite the second chances,
Burning away only feeds the flame
But I savored, only to suffer
You misconstrued all the flaws in miserable souls
And they call it murder
But I won't let it take the best of me

It follows me, eternally; I can't get it out of head

I'll take your breath, right out your chest
Oh I'm begging you, please give me a reason
I'm making mistakes I'd say,
Learning your lessons the hard way
(so give your best)
Your blood and sweat, oh I promise you
You're alive for a reason
Please don't throw your life away
Only you can choose your destiny

Only you can choose the path that you see true
Is your desire worth what you have to lose?

Reach for light,
Cause you've gone and lost your sight
And yes I know I put the weight in your hands,
And honestly, I won't take away
From the life that you have to lead
I'm just trying to make these changes and
Right the wrongs that you feel inside
(this sin we know)
With bridges burn
There's no way to find your way to riches

I know you're all talk, and this is all wrong,
You live to die just to feel like you belong
I'm not wrong to assume that you're hopeless,
My heart's wasting away for the worthless

It follows me, eternally; I can't get it out of head

I'll take your breath, right out your chest
Oh I'm begging you, please give me a reason
I'm making mistakes I'd say,
Learning your lessons the hard way
(so give your best)
Your blood and sweat, oh I promise you
You're alive for a reason
Please don't throw your life away
Only you can choose your destiny

So where will you run now?
(we see the truth in your eyes you know you can't disguise)
So where will you run now?
(you know you can't escape we all have our fate)
Because we see that the wolves are at the gates
Biting the legs of the ones who covet,
It was they who led me to your door.

6. Transcend

(so far I don't know which way to go)
(feels like I need a miracle)

Feelings changing my surroundings left me wondering
And I think how it's kinda crazy you remember
The way you separate from the answers
Burning up in flames from a single ember
It's funny how a spark so small can inspire such great change

Let the fire burn on
Just don't get lost in all the flames, all the flames
You've got to see above and beyond
To take a step to a higher place
Where even you can change your fate

How could you expect to face
A fear that's always faceless
How could you believe
The ones that are to blame are really blameless
How could you shamelessly live your life so fucking shameless
It's time to speak up and start giving names to the nameless

Now what did you expect for me to say
With all these thoughts as you stray away from me?
Your bones unwinding at the seams
My dreams are the awakening
Wake up!
Open your eyes so you can see inside
Try to recognize this fire inside
Everything you once knew dies tonight

With closed eyes (with closed eyes)
I'm feeling all the oxygen in my lungs burning

Let the fire burn on
Just don't get lost in all the flames, all the flames
You've got to see above and beyond
To take a step to a higher place
Where even you can change your fate

You think you're safe from life
When you know you are not
You know it's hard to breathe
When your lungs won't stop burning
Sometimes you just gotta take a chance and live

The way to survive is to light up the night
With the choice to not give in
We don't belong here, we won't be long here
(follow me if you even can)

We can't pretend we're the only ones who believe,
You have to find it inside your heart just to see,
And everything you've known, you've had to fight for it
You can't just burn the bridges
Just let your heart pressure you to stay

There must be something there
Something inside that makes you care
You'll feel the heat beware
But I promise with the fire in your heart
There's no need to be scared

I've got a fire in my heart.
