LOVE AND DEATH LYRICS

1. The Abandoning

Wake up sleepy Wide AWAKE!

I... Am... The walking dead.
I am death's best friend.
I create disaster.
I'm the master killing me.
There's no Innocence,
There's only pain
I’m empty!

Master, Master save me.
Master, Master kill me.
Don't give up on me now.
Cause that's what I've already done.
My body's breaking down.
I feel my mind getting numb.

Why... Do... I hurt myself?
Why can't I escape this hell?
I am always blaming,
Always chasing broken dreams.
I keep screaming out,
But no one ever Hears Me!

Master, Master save me.
Master, Master kill me.
Don't give up on me now.
Cause that's what I've already done.
My body's breaking down.
I feel my mind getting numb.

Bleeding from my disconnection.
Lost inside myself.
Forsaken by my own reflection.
Abandoning myself.

I'M WIDE AWAKE!
On myself...
I'M WIDE AWAKE!
Give up, give up...
On myself...
Give up, give up
I'M WIDE AWAKE!
SAVE ME!

Master, Master save me.
Master, Master kill me.
Don't give up on me now.
Cause that's what I've already done.
My body's breaking down.
I feel my mind getting numb.

Bleeding from my disconnection.
Lost inside myself.
Forsaken by my own reflection.
Abandoning myself.

NO!

I'M WIDE AWAKE!

2. Whip It

Crack that whip
And give the past the slip
Step on a crack
And break your momma's back
When a problem comes along
You must whip it
Before the cream sits out too long
You must whip it
When something's going wrong
You must whip it

Now whip it
Into shape
Shape it up
Get straight
Go forward
Move ahead
Try to detect it
It's not too late
To whip it
Whip it good

Crack that whip
And give the past the slip
Step on a crack
And break your momma's back

When a good time turns around
You must whip
You will never live it down
Unless you whip it
No one gets their way
Until they whip it

Now whip it
Into shape
Shape it up
Get straight
Go forward
Move ahead
Try to detect it
It's not too late
To whip it
Whip it good

I say whip it
Whip it good
I say whip it!
Whip it
Good!

I say whip it
Whip it good
I say whip it
Whip it good

Now whip it
Into shape
Shape it up
Get straight
Go forward
Move ahead
Try to detect it
It's not too late
To whip it
Whip it good

I say whip it
Whip it good
I say whip it
Whip it, whip it good

3. Watching The Bottom Fall

You say it’s criminal
(It’s not criminal)
I say it’s logical
(It’s logical)
I said my last no thank you
Where do we go from here
We trust the same lies
Trust the same things
Justify the crime
What’s it for
What is it for

Watching the bottom fall
(The bottom fall)
Watching you burn it all
On and on, on and on
Will we learn again
And will it hurt forever
Watching the bottom fall
Fall!

You say I’m cynical
(You say, I say)
You’re hypocritical
(I say)
I said my last no thank you
I thought I made it clear
We trust the same lies
Trust the same things
Justify the crime
What’s it for
What is it for

Watching the bottom fall
(The bottom fall)
Watching you burn it all
On and on, on and on
Will we learn again
And will it hurt forever
Watching the bottom fall

I don’t have energy for you
I don’t have energy to see this through
I don’t have energy for you
I don’t have energy can we be through

I’m through – with you

I’m through – with you
I’m through – with you
I’m through – with you
With you
Through, with you

Watching the bottom fall
(The bottom fall)
Watching you burn it all
On and on, on and on
Will we learn again
And will it hurt forever
Watching the bottom fall

Fall!

4. By The Way...

My life
Your death
I’ve been contemplating
And I let you go
As you disappeared
I didn’t see it standing there
I didn’t see it fall apart
And everything was so unfair
I had to walk away
To get it right

And by the way
I’m doing alright and you don’t know
What I had to give to walk away and live again
I’ll always miss you and
And by the way
I think about you and the memories
Are never gonna leave
I know I’ll see you there with me
Where we will always be alive

You’re gone
I’m here
It’s completely unfair
And my gifts
Your scars
I will carry now

Did you see me standing strong
Dying with a broken heart
From you fatality
So why’d you have to go
Why did you go

And by the way
I’m doing alright and you don’t know
What I had to give to walk away and live again
I’ll always miss you and
And by the way
I think about you and the memories
Are never gonna leave
I know I’ll see you there with me
Where we will always be alive

I don’t know how to go on
I hate you didn’t make it
I’m so devastated
I don’t know how to go on
I’m holding onto memories
Dying in my misery
I don’t know how to go on
I’ve never felt pain like this
I don’t know how to go on
Tell me how to go on

And by the way
I’m doing alright and you don’t know
What I had to give to walk away and live again
I’ll always miss you and
And by the way
I think about you and the memories
Are never gonna leave
I know I’ll see you there with me
Where we will always be alive

5. Meltdown

I think I’m having a meltdown

I feel the tension
(I feel the tension)
Confessions told
(Tell me, tell me everything)
Insanity is taking over
The fantasies are driving me mad

Before
Never let go
Before I fold
Before
Never let go
Before I fold

You know that I am heading for a meltdown
Controlling me losing it all
You know that I am heading for a meltdown
Just take away the tears
I’m suffocating, don’t leave me here waiting

The cry within
(Cry within)
The flesh is bold
(Tell me, tell me everything)
Calamity is waiting silent
The razor is cutting the pain and letting it out

Before
Never let go
Before I fold
Before
Never let go
Before I fold

You know that I am heading for a meltdown
Controlling me losing it all
You know that I am heading for a meltdown
Just take away the tears
I’m suffocating, don’t leave me here waiting

Over and over in my head
I see your scars
Remember the day when we first met
Take me back

Before
Never let go
Before I fold
Before
Never let go
Before I fold

You know that I am heading for a meltdown
Controlling me losing it all
You know that I am heading for a meltdown
Just take away the tears
I’m suffocating, don’t leave me here waiting

Meltdown
For a meltdown
Meltdown

6. My Disaster

How can you watch me suffer
How does it feel
Why do you stay so silent
Will the time reveal

You’re the leader I follow
Am I a victim of circumstance

Feeling everything
Crashing down on me
Lost and so afraid
It’s my Disaster
Losing everything
Giving all of me
I feel so betrayed
In my Disaster

How can you say you love me?
It’s so unclear
I hope the pain will leave one day
With all the fear

You’re the leader I follow
Am I a victim of circumstance

Feeling everything
Crashing down on me
Lost and so afraid
It’s my Disaster
Losing everything
Giving all of me
I feel so betrayed
In my Disaster

But I’ll make it through
But I’ll make it through

I’ve got to dominate
I will not tolerate it
Will I appreciate
The pain that leads me to you

Feeling everything
Crashing down on me
Lost and so afraid
It’s my Disaster
Losing everything
Giving all of me
I feel so betrayed
In my Disaster

But I’ll make it through
My Disaster
But I’ll make it through
My Disaster

7. I W8 4 U

[feat. Mattie Montgomery of For Today]

Make you real and honest
Make it worth it all
Make the pain melt away

WAIT
Don’t throw away another day
WAIT
Take a new avenue
WAIT
Look inside you will find
WAIT
The way you lie

Tell me you lost it
Tell me you lost it
Whatever it takes you know I won’t let it break you
Tell me you lost it
Tell me you lost it
Don’t carry the weight
I wait

I wait for you
Always will, always do
I wait for you
Hurting, bleeding, dying, but
I wait for you
Always will, always do
I wait for you
Hurting, bleeding, dying, but
I wait

Make you feel so vibrant
Make you fall in love
Make you feel like brand new

WAIT
Don’t throw away another day
WAIT
Take a new avenue
WAIT
Look inside you will find
WAIT
The way you lie

Tell me you lost it
Tell me you lost it
Whatever it takes you know I won’t let it break you
Tell me you lost it
Tell me you lost it
Don’t carry the weight
I wait

I wait for you
Always will, always do
I wait for you
Hurting, bleeding, dying, but
I wait for you
Always will, always do
I wait for you
Hurting, bleeding, dying, but
I wait

I’m fed up of missing you
I’m fed up of all your lies
I’m fed up of chasing you
I’m fed up of your disguise
I’m fed up of missing you
I

8. Fading Away

Contamination feeding the masses
Procrastination killing us all

We can see it decay and we play with it
Will we ever know
That we’re livin’ a lie
We can say it’s ok and keep fakin’ it
Will we ever know

Lie down and let go
We’re fading away
Time, time is so cold
We all die one day
Lie down and let go
We’re fading away
We won’t be around

This masquerade is falling to pieces
This escapade is coming apart

We can see it decay and we play with it
Will we ever know
That we’re livin’ a lie
We can say it’s ok and keep fakin’ it
Will we ever know

Lie down and let go
We’re fading away
Time, time is so cold
We all die one day
Lie down and let go
We’re fading away
We won’t be around

Lie down and let GO!
Lie down! Let go!
Lie down! Let go!

Our pictures are so clear
We’re fading away

Lie down and let go
We’re fading away
Time, time is so cold
We all die one day
Lie down and let go
We’re fading away
We won’t be around

Lie down and let go
We’re fading away
Time, time is so cold
We all die one day
Lie down and let go
We’re fading away
We won’t be around

9. Paralyzed

Why is my love so cold?
No more will I pretend
Gasping for air as you're slipping through my fingers
Don't kiss me goodbye
Please don't leave here

I'm dying inside
(Knowing it's my fault)
Crying with my
(Fist against the wall)
Can't get away
I swear I'm gonna break
I'm paralyzed
I need you now

The smell of sacrafice
Your disappearing whispers
I cannot grasp how my life inside just withers
Don't kiss me goodbye
Please don't leave here

I'm dying inside
(Knowing it's my fault)
Crying with my
(Fist against the wall)
Can't get away
I swear I'm gonna break
I'm paralyzed
I need you now

I need you
I need you now
I need you

Death before I give dishonor
Death before I disobey
BAAAYYY!
Death before I give dishonor
Death before I disobey
DISOBEY!
DISOBEY!

I'm dying inside
(Knowing it's my fault)
Crying with my
(Fist against the wall)
Can't get away
I swear I'm gonna break
I'm paralyzed
I need you now

10. Chemicals

The lies that you sell
They offend me
(You're the killer and the kisser)
Try to not tell
All my secrets
(Stop the pressure, hear the whisper)

Watching myself fade away
How long will I live so broken?
A fallen friend, no family
How long will I...
Keep, keep, keep failing
Can you tell that I hurt
It's critical
All I can smell is the burn
Of chemicals
And slowly losing sensation
Let me go, let me fight
Chemicals in my mind

Regret as I fall
For the sweet burn
(You're the killer and the kisser)
Inject as I crawl
To my Master
(Stop the pressure, hear the whisper)

Watching myself fade away
How long will I live so broken?
A fallen friend, no family
How long will I...
Keep, keep, keep failing
Can you tell that I hurt
It's critical
All I can smell is the burn
Of chemicals
And slowly losing sensation
Let me go, let me fight
Chemicals in my mind

Time missed
I guess I've never contemplated
All the time that I have missed
Time, stress
I guess I've never contemplated
All the time wasted in stress
Time missed
I guess I've never contemplated
All of it
Time, stress
I guess I've never contemplated
All of it
Can you tell that I hurt
It's critical
All I can smell is the burn
Of chemicals
And slowly losing sensation
Let me go, let me fight
Chemicals in my mind

I'm not a criminal
I hate the chemicals
I'm not a criminal
I hate the chemicals

I'M NOT A CRIMINAL
I HATE THE CHEMICALS
I'M NOT A CRIMINAL
I HATE THE CHEMICALS

11. Bruises

Hearing voices in your head
Hurting bruises spoken through their mouths again
Every letter breaks the skin
One by one the bruises find their way back in
They bleed you dry
They bleed you dry

Show us how to live
How do we forgive
Through the bitterness
How do we get there
Show us how to die
How to give our lives
Living sacrifice
How do we get there

Many scars we try to hide
How much longer will we keep the pain alive
They bleed you dry
They bleed you dry

Show us how to live
How do we forgive
Through the bitterness
How do we get there
Show us how to die
How to give our lives
Living sacrifice
How do we get there

Now that I gave you all of my heart
Why do they rip it apart
Shattered and broken down again
Fix the pieces
The pieces

Show us how to live
How do we forgive
Through the bitterness
How do we get there
Show us how to die
How to give our lives
Living sacrifice
How do we get there

Show us how to live
Show us how to die
How do we get there
Show us how to give
How to give our lives
How do we get there

12. Empty

[Expanded Edition Bonus Track]

I hear the words you say
With your twisted tongue
Careless venom

I live caught in your web
There’s a tug on the line
And you eat me alive

Tell me how you’re better than I
Why are you so empty inside?
You’ll never ruin me!!

Use me as your own device…
You beat me down…
With your judgments…

And I bought what you sold…
It cost everything…
And it’s left me… alone…

Tell me how you’re better than I…
Not better! Not better!, NO!
Why are you so empty inside?

You haven’t got a clue!
I’ve wiped my hands of you!
Tell me how you’re better than I…
You’ll never ruin me!!

You look so innocent
You’re screaming, I’m not listening
YOU’LL NEVER RUIN!
You’ll never ruin me!!

I FEEL!
SO MUCH!
TORTURE!
FROM YOUR WORDS!

I FEEL!
SO MUCH!
TORTURE!
FROM YOUR WORDS!

Remove the stain of your curse
The trace of your smell is decaying
Discard the weight of the guilt
You’ll find no remorse
You’ll be left hollow

Tell me how you’re better than I
NOT BETTER! NOT BETTER!, NO!
Why are you so empty inside?

You haven’t got a clue!
I’ve wiped my hands of you!
Tell me how you’re better than I
You’ll never ruin me!!

I FEEL!
SO MUCH!
TORTURE!
FROM YOUR WORDS!
