[God hates]
2. Vision
It rises it rises it rises it rises it rises
it rises it rises and my eyes
say and my eyes say and my eyes say
and my eyes say and my eyes say and my
eyes say push me away
Rage of inconsistence
a wall of inviting fading color.
I fade through your sight disguised.
And I will hand you this birth
Untie you with words
give you what i burned
A crutch of tunnel vision
forcefed denial- I reconcile
crave till I die.
And I will bleed you this world.
Untie you with words
forsake you this hurt.
And you can't reach for me
yet you reek of me
I'm still alive today
forcefed dreams will make you see.
I can't fuck with the minds of the brainless
found another way to get inside.
This shield has left you shameless
I'm witness to your suicide.
fall fall fall fall fall fall fall fall
Grow. Grow cold like me motherfucker.
Grow. Grow cold with me motherfucker.
My vision is endless
Mindfucking the brainless
My power relentless
Mindfucking the brainless.
For once my eyes are clear
No tunnel vision here.
Grow. Grow cold like me motherfucker.
Grow. Grow cold with me motherfucker.
My vision is endless
My power relentless
My vision is endless
My power relentless.
i feel sick i feel sick i feel sick i feel sick i feel
sick i feel sick i
feel sick i feel
3. Keep It To Myself
My blood runs free now, done feeling defiled.
Strike that which poisoned me before
my sweet denial.
I've hidden for longer than i can say.
Salvation lies in those who don't betray.
I've curled up, obsessed about it, for far too
goddamned long.
With my eyes red, and a heaviness, I stumbled to your
door.
(and you heard me, and you welcomed me, and you hid
me, and you cleared me... and you held me, and you
opened me, and you helped me because they raped me)
I've felt I've come alive, I owe you so much more than
my life. It's like every sign I knew was true, hand me
my life, my mind with you.
I served my time alone, I served my time alone.
They had trapped my life, concealed my time, help make
it die...
I served my time alone, I served my time alone.
They had trapped my life, concealed my time, help make
it die...
I saw the blood in your hair. Relive it. Relive it.
Relive it. Relive it. Relive it. Relive it. Relive it.
Relive it. Relive it. ( I think I'll keep it to
myself. I think I'll keep it to myself. I think I'll
keep it to myself. I think I'll keep it to myself.)
4. Servant
God bless my curse. why heal? this gift hurts. The
fire has died? still i'm
tortured by the burn inside. but you didn't have
fucking thing to do with
it, you never played a goddamn part in it, i've given
so much i'll die in
it, you still feel its your right to fuck with it....i
was never pushed, i
fucking let go, you never pushed me you fuck, you
think i'd give you the
pleasure? Fail. I hope you fail in your life, i know
you've failed in your
mind...i've learnt what faliure is about, you fucking
dead sure i won't try?
if i cry then i can't see, these blood soaked tears
set me free, i drowned
these tears so i can see reality inside of me....i was
never pushed, i
fucking let go, you never pushed me you fuck, you
think i'd give you the
pleasure? is that what you believe, is that what you
fucking wanna hear? you
fucking know i'm real, you fucking know i'm here...i
know you inside out, i
know you better than i know myself......i serve you
better than i serve
myself...why? why, why is this in me. i'm breathing,
i'm praying to that
selfish god within me, to that hollow god that stalks
you. praise your
goddamn life, fulfill your goddamn life...praise your
goddamned life,
fulfill your goddamned life. stillborn liar, wartorn
liar, forlorn liar. i
may fail but you have to pick me up to see, i may fail
but you have to test
me out to see. i may fail but you have to pick me up
to see, i may fail but
you have to test me out to see. you scatter, but i
have to gather, fallen
all over and i will gather. you scatter, but i have to
gather, fallen all
over and i will gather. why?
5. Reform Reason
And I should never dream again...
Still I will never hide.
These crossed hearts that bear my name satisfy my
thirst for strength, and failure- sickness thats hides
the
way to bleed and leave peace behind you.
Now drown out the screams inside.
Replace them with reason.
For reason is the drug that hides and kills your drive
to
breathe, believe and reach for dreams that light the
way
to free yourself from binds of inward hate.
And I dream of hands that cover me.
Safe inside dried eyes that feel my breath surviving
wars
that you fought.
And no one could ever help you stand for your dreams.
I feel silence, stare through me with executional eyes
that relive every shortcoming of the flesh.
Stare at my life while I relive the child that brought
me
here to try my fear.
I feel silence, stare through me with executional eyes
that relive every shortcoming of the flesh.
You live for times to qualify my anger.
Dry your eyes and reach for self-absorption.
Peel myself off broken concrete,
Despise the taste of my sour blood as I roll my eyes
up to the sky.
Grieve for the ones you've lost. Grieve for the ones
you've never seen. And I grienve alone for souls
unknown
to me.
And I dream of hands that cover me.
6. Branded
For life, by life.
Born into my skin, shedding filth within.
Final game of sin, breeding faith again
Step a little closer to see, touch upon the scar
that's healed
Every little bit of me rests upon the agony in my
head.
But I have seen the pain, covered scars still remain
Lost in my own game, I'm killing fate again
Branded-branded-branded-branded
crawl inside my head
But I have seen the pain, covered scars still remain
Lost in my own game, I'm killing fate again
Branded-branded-branded-branded
crawl inside my head
Branded for life
Branded for life
Branded by life.
7. Dead Alone
Drown my eyes
Fight, rise, cry
leave my mind bare to die.
My face shows no soul
Skin torn, I'm growing cold
My mind won't start alone
Fuck yourself, shut up and die
I still can't hear your cries
these bloody veins will rise
scarred through from pain inside
Fuck yourself, leave me to die.
Razor bath, worn down path
Painless graft, my last laugh?
Torn of soul, dead alone
no more bullshit leave me bare to die
No one has seen what's happened here alone
it's my respect this fight has now dethroned
No one cares what happened here alone
curse this fucking lifeless soul.
My face shows no soul
Skin torn, I'm growing cold
My mind won't start alone
Fuck yourself, shut up and die
I still can't hear your cries
these bloody veins will rise
scarred through from pain inside
Fuck yourself, leave me to die.
I'm dead alone.
8. The Devout
Humans feed off bullshit...a numbing reminder from
this self-induced critic.
I proved what I already know.
If I stood here much longer I couldn't take myself for
much more than what
you already think I am. Faith was found in my self.
What is it they're looking at? What is it they're
talking at? What is it
about you? What inspires me to attack this hollow?
this shelter? this cover?
This is more than I ever want to show through my
eyes...infect me...reform
me...inscribe me...release me...(for haven't you
taught me i'm worthless?)
Call upon your sense of self...that natural gift they
took from
you...they've killed for your mind....they've raped
your soul...and you let
them? Don't they realize these are lives. These are
lives. Yours are lies.
Yours are lies.
They have raped your minds, now hear them cry out, get
out, cry out, get
out. You fanatic christian-muslim fucks. If I believe
everything you preach
and every word you spit out blindly, then all you've
truly taught me is
godhates, godhates, godhates, godhates, godhates,
godhates, godhates,
godhates, godhates, godhates, godhates, godhates,
godhates, godhates,
godhates, godhates, godhates, godhates, godhates,
godhates, godhates,
godhates, godhates, godhates
9. Sever All Ties
Between this journey from birth to death do we need a
witness? A scribe to
write down the endless thoughts and hidden emotions we
contain? And then a translator to hold them up to our
face and say "here it is. here is what you
think. here is what you are." That is what you make of
me? Well I feel the
weight of your words but you'll feel the razors of
mine.
My soul reborn in whose image?
Give me one reason...any reason....to loathe you. I've
known you my whole
life. I feel like i am you. I am your witness inherent
around you. I act as
your weakness, your strength, your scribe.
Our souls reborn in one image.
Can you breathe now? I breathe you. Can you breathe you?
(i'd give my life to sever all ties)
Listen...can't you hear our pain? can't i free these
demons from inside you?
I know they've threatened and shamed you, but won't
you trust me and let me show you my way? again and
again and again time has stolen our lives. I will not
bow down to your words of confusion for i know them as
just that....the words of the denied. Are you
listening? If you are tell me what i'm saying for i
need to know i haven't made this up. I realize that
you've never
shared that laughter before but you will laugh again
and so will i...and so
will i.
And I looked at you as your blood ran in lines down
me. And from that point on every thing was clear to
me. Your essence was honest and beautiful....I felt
numb but set free. And from that point on every thing
was clear.....
10. Phased
Worn out by pain, crumbled in shame
same blinded game, curse out your name
For every fucking lie, i've seen through blinded eyes
your god i'll still deny, afraid he'll stunt my high.
and every fucking time i wake with bloodshot eyes,
phased through all sense of right, i'll still be
searching
deeper, farther, slower, freer
tell me how you want to be
victimized by all you see
while you sleep tight tonight
i'm afraid i'll still be searching
deeper, farther, slower, freer
tell me how you want to be
victimized by all you see
while you sleep tight tonight
i'm afraid i'll still be searching fo whats right.
come face me, come phase me
come face me, come phase me
come face me, come phase me
come face me, come phase me
the system alive, the choke hold of time
the system alive, come phase my life
i'll face my life, come phase my life
i'll face my life.
11. God Of Disgrace
I failed. I tried. On my time you lied.
I freed myself, but i'm tied, i'm tied.
Inside, curl me up and throw me in the gutter.
I hide, freedom as i feel mental slaughter.
Still blind, quick to see the way i falter.
I'm tied, now to fuel the way i feel that...
I'm a god, but not a man.
Pure disgrace mirrors pure hate.
I'll break this mirror to match your face,
I'll break this mirror tempt my disgrace.
Inside, I hide, still blind, i'm tied
I'm a god, but not a man.
Pure disgrace mirrors pure hate.
I'll break this mirror to match your face,
I'll break this mirror tempt my disgrace.
Inside, I hide, still blind, i'm tied
I'm a god, but not a man.
I can see what no one can.
I'm a god, but not a man.
I'm a god, but not a man.
I'm your god of disgrace, disgraced.
I'm your god of disgrace, disgraced.
A god. A god. A god. A god.
12. Color Returns
Breathing just didn't feel worthwhile today.
I swallowed the taste of dead sex off her tongue,
she screamed in technicolor.
She's still screaming the color of her confusion.
I can't see the color of my screams.
They erased color from my mind, erased color from my heart.
Swallow the taste of dead sex off my tongue.
she screamed in technicolor.
She's still screaming the color of her confusion.
I can't see the color of my screams.
I bare my wrists with hope (that someone will slit them for me)
I couldnt deal with the burden (of slicing the veins myself)
But I would fall to my knees (and smile up at that savior)
I see too much in my blood.... too fucking much, too
goddamn much, I've seen too goddamn much
Sometimes while I breathe color returns, but it wasn't worthwhile today
I thought you never died (I lost that perfect color)
I thought you never died (I lost that perfect color)
I thought you never died (I lost that perfect color)
I thought you never died (I lost that perfect color)
I thought you never died (I lost that perfect color)
I thought you never died (I lost that perfect color)
I thought you never died (I lost that perfect color)
I thought you never died (I lost that perfect color)
13. Surprise!...Your Dead!
