FROM AUTUMN TO ASHES LYRICS

1. Deth Kult Social Club

On the might of kings and captains
On the eyes of midnight watchmen
I know my hatred is perfect for the culprit
Who deserves
It dead meat
Against your broken bones
Thrown in a ditch to die alone
But there is no dream
Worth pursuing
When there is no body embracing
And there is no war worth fighting
When there is no blood worth spilling
On the might of kings and captains
On the eyes of midnight watchmen
I know my hatred is perfect for the culprit
Who deserves
It's dead meat
Against your broken bones
Thrown in a ditch to die alone
But there is no dream worth pursing
When there is no body embracing
And there is no war worth fighting
When there is no blood worth spilling
I know my hatred is pure
For the new recruit
123 go imposters
On the fast track to public execution
Beggars for morely unite
But your pleas are ineffective
And if you ever come back
Beautiful incarnation
I'll lay down at your feet
And accept my punishment
You better save yourself
You better save yourself
You better save yourself
There is no dream worth pursing
When there is no body embracing
And there is no war worth fighting
When there is no blood worth spilling
There is no dream worth pursing
When there is no body embracing
And there is no war worth fighting

2. On The Offensive

Elementary eavesdropper
There are things you cannot comprehend
Did you want a kiss did you want a flower in your fist
Or was it all just make pretend
I'll follow you until the end
I'll follow
Burning down your home
Burning down
Just to rebuild it again
Burning down
I will never steal from you
Burning down
Or any of your friends
Burning down
Adolescent eavesdropper
There are things you wish you could forget
So you start to weep and
You start to drink yourself to sleep
And you only kiss your cigarette
But don't we all feel sick to death
Or do we
Burning down your home
Burning down
Just to rebuild it again
Burning down
I'll never steal from you
Burning down
Or any of your friends
Burning down
You shower me with gifts
They don't fix it
I'm no purchase bastard
Fuck up tell me right now
If you find me on the offensive
For the first time help out
Tell me right now
Are you happy
How can you be
Are you happy
With me
You're an adult eavesdropper
And by now the roles have been reversed
And you inflict the shit
You hated as a kid
There is only one way to break this curse
Burning down your home
Burning down
Just to rebuild build it again
Burning down
I would never steal from your
Burning down
Or any of your friends burning down

3. Recounts & Recollections

This is a progression
And you would prefer
The obsolete so leave
Expired
Make room for shorter teeth
You caught me
Sulking and feeling sorry
But this boy
This boy has everything
This boy
This boy has everything he needs
Give yourself over to time and decay
Caged by the freeway
This a progression
You would prefer
The obsolete so leave
Give your self over to time
And decay
And decay
Give yourself over to time
A worse negation of life then death
Is that you'll never want what you get
But failing is just as sweet as success
I've tried them both
And have no preference
So open your eyes and scan the horizon
Pick a direction and don't stop driving
Recounts and recollections
Arguments and objections
Make a connection
Open your eye lid
Scan the horizon
Waking to dream with the brave and defiant
Give yourself over to time and decay
Caged by the freeway
This is a progression
You would prefer
The obsolete
So leave
Give yourself over to time
And decay
And decay
Give yourself over
My self motivation
This scar this badge of honor
My self motivation
This scar this badge of honor
My self motivation
This scar this badge of honor
My self motivation
Is here

4. Daylight Slaving

Steam rising and spiraling
Then vanish in the wind
I can't tell where the land
Ends and they sky begins
Are you acquainted with
The threat of being killed
Are you conversing with pigeons on the windowsill
And every battle has been fought
And everything I think was thought
Down and down we've descended
Every day keeps getting shorter
As my sleeves start getting longer
And the sidewalks overflow
Patronize pedestrian
With no sense of direction
I am lost and cant ask a question
Steam rising and spiraling
Then vanish in the wind
I cant tell when the land
Ends and the sky begins
This city is truly assaulting my senses
Unkempt unruly devour defenseless
Occupant if poverty build character
And spoils breed arrogance
Id rather consort with the low and the decadent
Every battle has been fought
Everything I think had been thought
Down and down we've descended
Everyday keeps getting shorter
As my sleeves keep getting longer
And the sidewalks overflow
Patronize pedestrian
With no sense of direction
I am lost and can't ask a question
You'd better have the strength
Of the wandering aimless
With an audience of the most prestigious
Do you have the strain to love the one
You came with
I hope you have the strength
Were in the belly of
Every battle has been fought
Everything I think has been thought
Down and down we've descended
Every day keeps getting shorter
As my sleeves start getting longer
And the sidewalks overflow
Patronize pedestrian
With no sense of direction
I am lost and cant ask a question

5. Delusions Of Grandeur

Pressing on about our business
Comfort is getting too expensive
Hot shots for the pigeons with a death sentence
Your something like a pistol that's been polished bright
But if it never leaves the holster it can never save your life
I need a meaning I can get behind
To be alone is to be alive
A better message to subscribe to
To be alone is to be alive
Set sum I'm an hour older
Mile markers punctuate the shoulder
Harboring delusions of grandeur
Your something like a canvas that's been stretched and primed
You can become something priceless
Or you can be a waste of time
I need a meaning I can get behind
To be alone is to be alive
A better message to subscribe to
To be alone is to be alive
This is the best time to be alive
To be alone is to be alive
Consider where complaining gets you
To be alone is to be alive
Were living much too
Were living much too comfortably for me
Keep drifting
Keep drifting aimlessly
Stay with me
Stay with me
We'll stay busy
Stay busy
On endless trips to anywhere
To end up where we'll be
I need a meaning I can get behind
To be alone is to be alive
A better message to subscribe too
To be alone is to be alive
This is the best time to be alive
To be alone is to be alive
Consider where complaining gets you
To be alone is to be alive

6. Sensory Deprivation Adventure

On your honor
On your honor
Le me explain my behavior
On your honor
On your honor
I swear I was trying to save her
Who's the liar
Who's the killer
As I was doing a favor
When I fell upon her by way of a merciful murder
With every warning you wonder
Don't have to tell the truth
Just have to keep remaining mute
And I'll still think for my owner
Yes I know what Ive done and what I'm gonna do
Don't have to tell the truth
Just keep reaming mute
Yes I know what I've done and what I'm gonna do
No witness
No weakness
Don't buckle under the pressure
A servant
A self saint
For all those who suffer
Were caught in a current of confusion
But whats been suggested and whats be proven
With every warning you wonder
Don't have to tell the truth
Just keep remaining mute
And I still think for my owner
Yes I know what I've done and what I'm gonna do
I am only what you made me now
I am a reflection of your wealth
And if you think think you hate me now
You only hate yourself
Every warning you wonder
Don't have to tell the truth
Just have to keep remaining mute
And i still think for my owner
Yes I know what I've done and what I'm gonna do

7. Everything I Need

I have everything I need
Innocent victims they don't exist
Who told you this
Outfit the nation with a blindfold and a crucifix
Infinite wisdom
A bullet for the pacifist
Improving methods to cripple the populace
In keeping up with the font stampede
I have a choice
I could keep retreating
But I let it run me run me right into the ground
In keeping up with the font stampede
I have a choice
I could keep retreating
But I let it run me run me right into the ground
I have everything I need
We have no knowledge of the cause and cause and effect
Our fathers leaped behind the ugliest
In heritance
Innocent victim
Its every kid who has a wish
Oh god your in for the greatest disappointment
In keeping up with the font stampede
I have a choice
I could keep retreating
But I let it run me run me right into the ground
In keeping up with the font stampede
I have a choice
I could keep retreating
But I let it run me run me right into the ground
The ground
The ground
The ground
Ground
I let it trample me
I let it trample me
I let it trample me
I have everything I need
I have everything I need
I have everything I need
I have everything I need

8. Underpass Tutorial

This monument to the matron
Quick change of mood when you came in
A nervous introduction
Then we can for invincible alliance
Your growing fond of deception
All the things you forget to mention
And every indiscretion pushes me further away
Desperate, do you ever grow tired of begging
I know I know id rather live with nothing
Negative maybe but I've been working on it
Progress just moves so slowly
We are growing more and more distant
We are growing more and more distant
Miss model mess hit the pavement
Young debutante formed a habit
Measures that may seem drastic
Whatever makes you feel accepted
But I'm going south for the season
With nothing but a paper back companion
And mine is the only opinion with which I'll have to agree
Desperate, do you ever grow tired of begging
I know I know id rather live with nothing
Negative, maybe but I've been working on it
Progress just moves so slowly
Each and every under pass that bears the declaration
Of a dated love affair
And the number of Satan
I was educated there by the commuter station
The burdens you're bearing with
Threaten to break the back
Of the widow that weeps when she wakes
We growing more and more distant
We are growing more and more
Desperate, do you ever grow tired of begging
I know I know id rather live with nothing
Negative, maybe but I've been working on it
Progress just moves so slowly

9. Love It Or Left It

These are the keys
These are the keys
To a pulse that Ive been monitoring
She loves to dream
She loves to dream
But dreamers chase and never obtain
A victory
A victory
A vicious hand on a violent streak
Learn to run
Learn to run
I'll never be right for anyone
The more it gets suggested
The more I'm uninterested
Strength for now
Nothing later
Love it or leave it ya
Hated and left it
Trying to outgrow that phase
I'm drifting further away from
My element
My element
My element
These are the keys
These are the keys
To open minds and to empathy
She loves to dream
She loves to dream
Its better then her reality
A victory
A victory
I'm not as old as I used to be
I will not run
Today's the day
The wheels are back on the motor arcade
The more it gets suggested
The more I'm uninterested
Strength for now
Nothing later
Love it or leave it
Hated and left it
Trying to outgrow that phase
All of my ammunition
Is for the wrong weapon
Ive got the worst intention
And question no question
To keep it on offensive
General admission
For when you feel protected
I'll make you regret it
Love it or leave it
Hated and left it
Trying to outgrow that phase
Love it or leave it
Hated and left it
Trying to outgrow that phase
Just let me
Just let me
Just let out of this

10. Travel

Next time we walk down to the docks while welcoming morning sun
Well share rations of bread with
Drifters and deceivers
Know I only see this hour after evenings of infamy
There are thousands of you like me
And you'll be so so sorry
When you start to hate the sound of laughter
Grinding your teeth down to powder
And how rewarding is it just to be alive
We could have residence in the worst prison
That happens when you die and have no friends to carry caskets
In the saddest procession
And those people love to say they're sorry when your soul departs
But they recover oh so quick
There are thousands of you like me
And you'll be so so sorry
When you start to hate the sound of laughter
Grinding your teeth down to powder
There are thousands of you like me
And you'll be oh so so sorry
When you start to hate the sound of laughter
Grinding your teeth down to powder

11. A Goat In Sheep's Rosary

A coarse exhalation of lungs that pray for pity
My two fingers punching the keys diligently
Trembling ground pushed my glass off the table
Spilling the blood of the son of your idol
If it were not for the extensive bug collection
I would know not what Ive found
This world would still be flat
Mary would be a virgin
And I would still be sleeping sound
If every word is a dead symbol empowered by the carriers expression
I'll bury my instrument citing this incident
I'm a flickering bulb that keeps blaming the filament
The most honest telling of this boyish fable
Is that on level ground
I'm never feeling stable
Ive got to try to outlast this candle
Or trust department to fight the inferno
If it were not for this extensive bug collection
I would know not what I've found
This world would still be flat
Mary would be a virgin
And I would still be sleeping sound
Its an endless quest to maintain
When no one is ever right
And out of the fertile plains
We bathe in the fractured rays of
Sun sunlight sun sunlight
And if it were not for this extensive bug collection
I would know not what I've found
This world would still be flat
And Mary would still be a virgin
I would still be sleeping sound

They say this country was based
Hard work and integrity
And whats been done
That's a lie
It was built on murder man
Mayhem
Slavery
Oppression
Lies
Stealing
And tyranny
As a baseline

12. Pioneers

Dismiss the telegram
This is no exhibition
A pile of papers that are bound and tethered
We know the end of man will stem
From stale tradition
Relaying opinions
Changing like the weather

And this will never be and this will never be reversed
An installation
Sending an open invitation
To all the pioneers driven by suspicion
The old world is gone and
We keep wishing for a new frontier
To sink our teeth in and
Forget what you thought you believed in

The plans we execute are far between and few
But I'll go around the world just for something to do
Existence is fleeting
You spend your life dreaming
The shores are exhausted
The time is receding

And this will never be a
And this will never be reversed
An installation
Sending an open invitation
To all the pioneers driven by suspicion
The old world is gone
And we keep wishing for a new frontier
To sink our teeth in
And forget what you thought you believed in

And those who resisted
Were dragged out form their homes
This necklace was fashioned out of their teeth and bones
And those who resisted
Were dragged out from their homes
This necklace was fashioned out of their teeth and bones
Their teeth and bones

To all the pioneers driven by suspicion
The old world is gone and
We keep wishing for a new frontier
To sink our teeth in
And forget what we thought we believed in

Resistance is fleeting
Resistance is fleeting
Resistance is fleeting
Resistance is fleeting
