1. St. James
Now I don't know if this is something to be concerned
of, but I've got these ideas of murder.
I keep hearing these voices in my head and I keep checking
for monsters under my bed.
Cause they said, they said I was pure,
they said I was cured. But unsure,
If I would use this gift or abuse it.
so I decided to bury the evidence.
when I awoke it was evident,
this was a message, yes but this was not heaven sent.
And I spent my days and my dreams and I've spent my
nights awake figuring out what it means.
when I awoke things weren't the same,
I hear something dark its calling my name.
St.James, St.James, St.James, St. James
2. Dissentipede
To my dearest, I hope you hear these words that I speak;
honestly at its sincerest,
as the days go by we struggle just to survive.
Ironically we're not living it means we're alive.
so hold your tongue its not a matter of right or wrong,
but if I continue on this road my friend will I never
stop to seize the end.
White walls to mask the bars, Then throw us to the wolves.
throw us to the wolves.
White walls, white walls, white walls
guess ill never learn. I guess I get what I deserve,
sounds like a broken record haven't listened to a god damn word.
hold your tongue, its not a matter of right or wrong,
but if I continue on this road my friend, back and fourth and back again.
will I ever stop and seize the end
ever stop and seize the end
ever stop and seize the end
back and fourth and back again.
will I ever stop and seize the end
ever stop and seize the end
ever stop and seize the end
back and fourth and back again.
3. Anxiety Attack
There's a feeling at rise,
it grinds my teeth, stings lungs,
first instinct "draw with my guns" instead I just turn
to run, run from the path of the first born son.
what's done is done and I know all and above time is not always enough no,
its not always enough, not always enough not always enough.
forget what you think what you believe what you know,
cause in the end, its only you alone.
all I ever wanted to be was a father to you. Just like my father was to me.
If I admit to the guilt have faith and try to believe
will forgiveness set me free?
Not a chance in hell.
so forget what you think what you believe what you
know, when you finally reach the end it is you who
stands alone. against your foes and the people you love the most.
face your ghosts!
you know this story is fucking getting old all I ever
wanted to be was a father to you just like my father
was to me, if I admit to the guilt have faith and try
to believe will forgiveness set me free?
there's a feeling at rise,
it grinds my teeth, stings lungs first instinct "Draw
with my guns" instead I just turn to run,
run from the path of the first born son what done is
done and I know all and above time is not always enough
no its not always enough not always enough not always enough no
4. Bitter To The End
so here we stand toe to toe.
Like I said before It's time to face for ghost what
makes you think time would make a difference?
Now that you're here I think It's best for you to listen.
I don't think you want to hear the things I've got
to say, but if its the last things I do ill make you
listen any ways stop standing staring in awe,
I will spit in your face and still back you will crawl.
Back you will crawl. So convinced there's no way out,
broken promise that you've made.
so convinced there's no way out no roses or footsteps
will fall on your grave. I don't think you want to
hear the things I've got to say but if its the last
things I do ill make sure you listen anyway.
stop standing staring in awe,
if you can look me in the face and prove I am wrong
then Ill kill thy poet and cut the tongues from these
songs I'm not afraid I'm not afraid but if I ever stood
face to face I wouldn't know what to say,
hands start to shake, blood starts to race, I'm not afraid not afraid.
what makes you think time would make a fucking difference,
what makes you think standing here I would fucking
listen. If I ever stood face to face I wouldn't know
what to say I'm not afraid I'm not afraid.
5. Lovebirds
Walk away
You mask your face, hide behind your faith
No saints, no saints, just slaves
Just criminals you are all the same
You're all to blame
And I could strike you down
But I'll just call you out
You preach a truth, a lie, a love so divine
You say we're children of God but you're no son of mine
No you're no son of mine
How can we love with venom running through our blood?
How can we be loved for the things that we have done?
And when we speak, we speak into tongues
To swallow your speech is to poison the words in the verses that are sung
And you're wrong, there's sh*t all written in the stars
Choke on your words, I will sit here and starve
Drink to cure the thirst, die for the cause
You say everything in your silence in your pause
Oh god, isn't the truth raw?
But I'd rather know that than believe love that was so goddamn false
Heartless fiend
You say you love but true motives speak
So listen to these words while your world decays
And you will hear no doubts believe when I say that:
We're all slaves living in a brainwashed age
Plant in us the lies that you seed
You think you reap what you sew?
I'll spit it back in your face and watch the sh*t grow
Over and over and over we go
Over and over and over we go
Cowardice your mark the face of the ignorant
You can hide behind the cross
I'll live for my sins
6. Many Masters
I've been bruised and broken bodied.
To the broken hearted that means nothing at all.
Well I'll surrender to you now if it means I'll feel
the slightest bit of something.
cause I've been running for some time.
From many crimes, many men would not do.
To tell you the truth well I ain't got no excuse.
you'll only see me smiling when I'm hanging from that
noose. So walk through. if I'm a monster you're the
same just a preacher in disguise.
Your words are corrupt can make me think otherwise,
you use your trusted words to put people in a bind
take my advice; think with you own damn mind.
don't talk to me about thievery and munity when you
single us out and you steal our beliefs.
try to seize try to police the world but we cant.
as long as we think we can its an on going dance.
I've been bruised and broken bodied to the broken hearted
that means nothing at all well ill surrender to you
now if it means ill feel the slightest bit of something.
I'm only here to prove you wrong in my death.
even though well never know you assume you know best
you think I've been poisoned think I've got problems
because I'm not trying to neglect starve or solve them
cause I've been bruised and broken bodied to the broken
hearted that means nothing at all well ill surrender
to you now if it means ill feel the slightest bit of
something. I'm not afraid of my own inner demons,
they kept me company when no one else would I've got
reasons to believe they're just misunderstood,
understand, this separates the good from the bad,
its not the man who makes the story,
its his story that makes the man.
I'm not in the business of doing people favours,
I'm not the one to run when I'm face to face with my
maker between you and I it was not suicide it was murder
if you're the one to give her the gun if you're the one to encourage her!
7. Many Lives
[Instrumental]
8. Shallow Believer
Dead saints, shallow believers,
all fakes the best deceivers no love for the broken
hearted just a broken road for the dear and departed.
Dead saints, shallow believers,
all fakes the best deceivers no love for the broken
hearted just a broken road for the dear and departed.
You're just a coward with a crutch lube and leach burned
all that you've ever touched walk with me I'm born
to lose forced to walk a mile in cowards shoes no sleep
in heaven for this life. This is the hell I choose
dead saints all slaves. Just get a clue you fucking
crook, you fucking crook
dead saints, shallow believers,
all fakes, the best deceivers.
No love for the broken hearted.
Just a broken road for the dead and departed
Dead saints, shallow believers,
all fakes the best deceivers no love for the broken
hearted just a broken road for the dear and departed.
there must be a better way to draw rest to these withered
eyes. Other than a leap from the edge for a cowered
in disguise and I'm confused as to why you all look
so fucking surprised that id rather cast this body
to be washed out with the tides my mind it runs deeper
than the darkest of oceans,
and these thoughts and feelings should have been locked
and never been opened and they say the only thing to
fear is fear itself, I believe the only thing to fear
is ourselves and after everything is all said and done
there can be no remorse no compassion for the monsters
we become. for the monsters for the monsters for the monsters we become.
9. Dead Saints
Dead men walking, dead saints watching. don't you ever try to fucking stop me. dead saints lie. dead saints rise. and you say its okay ill be fine sink back into my skin time after time this time ill make it alive, before you crawl back inside and fuck with my mind. Despite what you think your lust is not thicker than blood. if you believe that it is I took the liberty to load your gun, point it at yourself because there is no point to run. maybe not today but soon vengeance will come. You said that this was best you did what you thought was right my guess is that just helps you sleep at night, and if you are to die before you wake, say hello to my father for me because its hell you will face.
10. Taken
lets be clear everyone’s got skeletons in the closet, oh you don’t? Well mine aren't dangerous I promise, there are things I keep deep beneath my skin, begging to let them out the wait when did I let them in? Everything is wrong, everything is lost. Look in my eyes and seek the damages you cause, I'm lost yea, yea I'm a lost cause every time I look at you my stomach ties in knots and its rots. It fucking rots my brain every time I give into these thoughts it always ends the same. But who’s to blame? I hid my shame but I can never escape forever ill be haunted for ill never know your face. Everyone is wrong and everything is lost. Look into the mirror and seek the damages you’ve caused the pain the suffering your ignorance has caused no thought at all this is all your fault, fill these wounds with salt, disinfect the affection because of you I'm scared to look at my reflection scared at what they say may be true, every day goes by I look a lot like you. Now I don't know if this is something to be concerned of but I've got these ideas unheard of and I keep them locked deep beneath skin of my teeth they will only be revealed in the darkest of dreams so everything is wrong everything is lost we're all fucked so go ahead and try to fun from your shadow, soon we'll find we drown in water so shallow every day a struggle every day is a different battle tell my mother that I love her but another day I cant handle because I'm torn between my nightmares and my dreams and accepting the truth is never as easy as it seems nothing. No nothing is what it seems. Everyone is wrong, everything is lost, Everyone is wrong, everything is lost, Everyone is wrong, everything is lost. we're all fucked. Everyone, Everyone, Everyone, We're all fucked.
11. Victus
So you think you're the only one with hollowed out
bones trust me when I say we are not alone,
its been told that home is where the heart is but I
don't think that I can go back to where I started.
Life deals shitty hands that's for certain,
its how you deal that defines the person needless to
say, through the guilt and the shame,
I always find these endings always ending the same.
I'll never know why or where I stand why cant I hold
the stars in the palm of my hands?
Or why some thirst for the blood of another man?
Or let alone never alone understand how we can take
our own. How we can take our own take our own so lets
pretend for a second we can do it all again would you
take that chance see how it plays out in the end?
Me? I wouldn't change a single fucking thing but don't
be so eager to pass off your judgement cause if it
ever came down to it would you rise above it? Rise rise rise above it.
I will, I will, I will, I will
No.
We can't stop now, we've started to rust no we can't
slow down we must rick ourselves up but I never wanted
to go down this road off the beaten path.
I must go it alone we are not meant to die here it's
clear more than ever we must face our fears and I admire
you for being so brave as I recall you were praying
for change, victus the fears I have sung I will I will
overcome my heart still lies with the son,
I will I will overcome forgive all the things I have
done I will I will overcome, we will rise with the strength of the sun,
I will I will overcome forgive all the things we have
done. We will we will overcome.
we will rise with the strength of the sun,
we will we will overcome.
