I AM WAR LYRICS

1. Don't Warship Assholes

Paralyzed, disgusted, fed up, with insincerity
Amount to something more
Than your petty wants and needs
Behead, the betrayal
Hack the head of mediocrity
Challenge yourself
Live, grow, and breathe
Emboldened, emblazoned, inspired by insincerity
Amount to something more
Than your petty wants and needs
Can't take it, can't take it
What I'm forced to hear
Can't believe it, can't believe it
Can't believe my ears
Realizing, embracing, enforced with peace and clarity
Challenge yourself
Be truer than you can be
Redefining, a new mindset, better way of living
Amount to something more
Than your petty wants and needs
Can take it, can take it
My mind is clear
I believe it, I believe it
I believe my ears

2. Uninvite Me To Your Facebook Party

Don't invite me
To your sad pity party
Can't fit the mold
Of who you need me to be
Always wear my heart on my sleeve
Sometimes its hard to take it back
Save your judgement don't worry about me
My heart is pure can't turn it black
Always wear my heart on my sleeve
Sometimes its hard to take it back
Save your judgement
I can't hear your words I won't fake it
Your insincerity I can't take it
I'm not trying to be your friend
I'm not trying to fit in
I'm checking out
Of this pathetic game
I know who I am
I know who I need to be
Always wear my heart on my sleeve
Sometimes its hard to take it back
Save your judgement don't worry about me
My heart is pure can't turn it black
Always wear my heart on my sleeve
Sometimes its hard to take it back
Save your judgement

3. The Poisoning

When I wake up take my first breath of the day,
it tastes of rancid, rotten, bitter, decay.
It seems clear that the walls are closing in,
and even friends are enemies.

When I wake up take my first breath of the day,
best intentions are quickly laid to waste.
It seems clear that the walls are closing in,
And I keep on playing the game.

Poison in, Poison out. That's what you offer
and I keep on drinking.
Suffer this, Suffer that. You can't deny the drama we're all
seeking.

And in the darkness it finds me, doesn't matter if I
try to get away. And in the darkness it finds me tries
to drag my spirit away. You can't take the fight out of me.

Try to run but the wolves are at my heels.
Their teeth so sharp this metaphor cuts so real.
I won't die from my gaping open wounds.

The infection you can't see that's killing you.
Try to run but the wolves are at my heels.
Ravenous, hungry, raging at full tilt.

I won't die from my open gaping wounds,
and I'll grow stronger then all of you.

4. Plug Me In

I can hear it, but can you?
I can feel it, how 'bout you?

Flip the switch, and my teenage mind went psycho.
So many feelings, a never ending cycle.

When I hear those words, come tearing through the speakers.
When I feel those words, my futures looking brighter.
There was a time, music felt so alive.
Those days aren't dead. And neither, neither am I.

There was a time, music felt so alive.
Those days aren't dead. And neither, neither am I.
Looking back, those were times to test a young soul.
So much anger, I could not even let go.
Then it hits my ears, comes tearing through the speakers.
Then it hits my ears, can handle any demon.

No more, Dead eyes.
No more, White lies.
No more, Dead eyes.
Not again, I am alive.
When the music hits can't stop me.

5. Bat Out Of Hell

Pure lighting flowing thru you.
Ignition.
Inspiring you touch.
Explosion.
Pure lighting flowing thru you.
Infectious.

Leaving your head in a rush, like a bat outta hell.
Wild energy out of control.
We're coming, we're coming.
We're coming for you.

An outlet, a direction for rage. A blast of power.
We're coming, we're coming.
We're coming for you.
We're coming, we're coming.
We're coming for you.

Power builds inside you.
Ignition.
Steam rolling away.
Explosion.
Power builds inside you.
Infectious.

6. Hunting Me

So burdened with disgust,
I wage my war against the world.
It can seem a losing battle but it's not.
And I'm going out on my shield.

How much more can I give of myself?
I'm looking deep inside,
If the answers don't come soon I'm fucked.

But I'd rather die then hide.
There's monsters hunting me, I would always stand and fight,
but this beast I recognize. Oh god, not me.

There's monsters hunting me, or just trapped deep inside.
but this beast I recognize. Oh god, not me.
Myself I do distrust, no perfect martyr for the world.
If I think I'm getting out alive I'm not,
but I'm going out on my shield.

I know the score I've been beaten before.
The answers lie inside, I will never know it all who cares?
But I know enough to survive.

7. Chipped Shoulders And Heart Attacks

I can see it in you, I can see it in me.
Black mark on the heart, blemish waiting to break free.

Chipped shoulder, heart attack. You'll never see what's coming
it you're always looking back.
Fight, fight. A soul jet black, will never love anything
it will always lack.

Stand up, take it back.
Your sanity is yours, if you could only laugh.
Chipped shoulder, heart attack, never see what's coming.

Before you fall, Before I fail to catch you.
Step back repose. There must be another answer.

So until you stop, stop to breathe.
Don't you, don't you tell me.
How horrifying life can, life can be.
I think you're scared, scared to live and breathe.
I think you're scared to live and breathe.

8. I Don't Know Anything

So what have I learned? After all this time just more questions,
like who am I?

After all these years, can I connect the lines.
Make some sense of this picture.
We all fake it sometimes, we all fake it sometimes.

I don't have many answers, don't know the meaning of life.
Just trying to make my way, just trying to see some sky.

I don't know it all, but I would die to try.
I don't know it all, I just want a beautiful life.
I don't want a beautiful lie.

Run away. With your ideas, of what I need. To say.
In your world, I can't assimilate.
It doesn't matter, in the smallest way to me.
What you think I should be.

Lost and found. This life never ever lets me down.
No time to weep as it, sweeps me off my feet.
Never safe, never weak. Steadfast.

9. A Nightmare

Let me tell you, the worst story I can imagine.
Let me sell you, the worst dream I've ever had.

Walk with me thru a nightmare, a twisted journey.
Walk with me thru a nightmare, fade away.

Help me. Show me. Teach me how to live and breathe.
Show me how to sacrifice, and swear to be by my side.

Help me. Show me. You mean more then everything.
My reason to sacrifice, just swear to be by my side.

I'm never saying good bye, I'm your solider for life.
I'm never saying good bye, Without you nothing feels right.

For now, forever and always, you are painted white in my dreams.
You are the savior that pulls me back, you are my light when
all goes black.
You are the morning dawn on the darkest night, and you are all I
need to be right.

10. Lead By Liars

Everyday, is a giant brain washing scheme.
Hatched by those who profit from deception.

Steal your money, steal your mind.
Take a number get inline.
If your not buying what they're selling.
Beware, beware.
It could be the end of your life,

Our Leaders, are liars, cheats, cowards, and degenerates.
I will never surrender my mind.

Hypocrisy, the standard of the day. Preached by those,
who cloud our perceptions.
Of what is virtuous and hideous.
A truer monster we'll never know. More grotesque then,
Any other villain.

Beware, beware. It could end your life. Open your eyes,
what motivates is greed, fear of a demon.
Whose face is never seen.

Stare into the abyss, see what you want to see.
Tell me if you can make any sense,
out of the lies we are forced to eat.

11. My Love Affair With Disaster

No longer a zombie, I sat up and walked. Walked out the door.
Freed myself from burdens, I jumped up and ran. Ran out the door.

I can't live that way anymore, depressed by what I love.
I can't live that way anymore, loving what makes me depressed.
A never ending disaster, a love affair with evil symphony.

My passion is mine. Where I walk it walks with me.
My passion is mine. Always burning in me, you can't fade me out.

Pull, pull, pull, pull, pull me down.
Back underneath, back underneath.
Back under deep, dark ground again.
Pull me down, so I can't see.
So I can't think, so I can't be myself again.

I'll get out, I'll find relief.
So I so you, so we can fuck me up again.
No one's fault. Incomplete.
Not denial. I just see. What's in front of me?

12. Nihilistic Motivation

Crushing the day, before it's chance to rise.
I'll eat your heart right out of your chest,
before it's good and ripe.

Driven thru pain. It's character building time,
do I pull back when it hurts,
or is the pain my chance to shine.

I know I have what it take, I always did.
I had to die before I could live.

Pushing myself, destroying walls I've built.
Smashing all in my way. Release all guilt.
Striving again, stretching my wings to fly.

From way up here the darkness is a spec in the morning light.
I'm not living in hell. It's living inside of me.

Just scream, and let it out,
Just scream, and let it out.
Trust me, I have no doubt,
Trust me, I have no doubt.
Fuck.

13. Feel The Game

Life can feel so isolating, like you're on this walk alone.
I felt this way before. I felt this way before.

Like the world was black and dead.
And my heart was ice and stone.

I felt this way before. I felt this way before.
When you reach the edge, no turning back.
Every word is like, a vicious attack.

You cannot compromise.
Close your eyes for a moment.
It passes and the glory is gone.

I felt this way before. I felt this way before.
A fleeting moments happiness, displaced outraged feelings.
I felt this way before. I felt this way before.

You cannot compromise, you cannot compromise.
You cannot lose control.
You cannot be compromised, you cannot lose control.

14. Hold This Sword With Your Face

15. Call Me Slugger
