1. Spy Vs. Spy
Nothing ever changes
Traps that aim to foil
Ease into your leisure
Blood begins to boil
Eyes in every corner
Spy the bombs you lay
Fortune weighs empty
Explodes now every day
Cracks in the mirror
Sevens in a row
Luck needs no comfort
If chaos steals the show
He who is clever
Builds toys electrified
Others lie waiting
Conscience, no guide
Ask me the reason
Trust me, I lied
Poisoned by the venom
And daily, I've died
2. The Rook
I used to be just like you
I'd sit here everyday
Mock suicide, your wounded pride
Kept getting in the way
You know that I can't tell you
You know I'd never lie
Your enemies are ill at ease
The moon is in their sky
Alright
Can anybody tell me
The difference right or wrong
Put games aside the second time
This joker's played too long
Don't say I didn't warn you
Don't say I wasn't fair
With open eyes, to your surprise
You'll find I wasn't there
And you say you could never read me
That cards never play in my eyes
But the pieces are moving, the game's an illusion
And the hand you've been dealt is mine
And you say you could never read me
That cards never play in my eyes
But the pieces are moving, the game's an illusion
And the hand you've been dealt is mine
Destiny's answer to everyone else
Seems empty as far as you've gone
Expect the surprises, don't ever ask why
You're facing this world on your own
Promises broken and promises made
The sooner you know, you can try
The best you can hope for is knowing someday
All winners and losers must die
3. Hangman
Take your memories, the things you've seen
Close your eyes and watch it like a dream
Green with envy and colored with lies
The universe inside you slowly dies
See the difference
Between you and me
I'm not the only one
Dancing with demons who die in the setting sun
Trusting in yesterday, the first time by
Leave your heart and be the last to try
Promising everything and dying to live
The lesson's learned and still you can't forgive
See the difference
Between you and me
I'm not the only one
Dancing with demons who die in the setting sun
Tempted by fortune, what comes and goes
Open your eyes, I fear the curtain's closed
Turning the pages and trying to find
The words that tell you what you left behind
See the difference
Between you and me
I'm not the only one
Dancing with demons who die in the setting sun
4. Standing At The Edge Of The World
Alright, heard somebody say
The secret to living is looking away
Nothing, nothing's ever real
The pieces you keep are the moments you steal
Come on, ask yourself why
The system is broken, it's useless to try
Too late, my child in time
You can't change the future by living a lie
Why am I a pawn in a game I can't master
Why am I alone in a world made just for me
Loving the silence, tired and alone
Slave to the darkness you call your home
Trusting in no one, tears in disguise
Dreams of tomorrow reflect in your eyes
Visions of yesterday, fate only knows
The truth's never far from the cards that you show
They tell you one thing, you tell them how
There's no place in hell like the place you are now
Don't let me stand at the edge of the world
It's too late for me
The sooner or later, it always arrives
Why does it have to be
Don't let me stay, isn't time at the end
Far from me and you
The silence is broke, love always survives
There's nothing left to do
5. Revenge Of The Viper Three
It's just a picture of what might have been
But now it's everything you see
Just leave it hanging on the wall that way
It lets you live it all again
Feel it coming
Chances are
The silver blade will leave a scar
See it running
Down the spine
The day you said revenge is mine
Still can't remember where it all began
Those who were five, now only three
Forget the shadows and the memories there
It's just a place where things went wrong
Feel it coming
Chances are
The silver blade will leave a scar
See it running
Down the spine
The day you said revenge is mine
Wasted anger turned inside
The pain is all you see
Eyes are closing, darker now
It's all you'll ever be
Now every day is one you hope to see
What's in the past, forever gone
You'll know the faces in the shadows fear
The ones who live to see them fall
Feel it coming
Chances are
The silver blade will leave a scar
See it running
Down the spine
The day you said revenge is mine
6. A Phone Booth In The Middle Of Nowhere
Nobody's calling
Asking myself why
Voices from nowhere
Just tempting me to try
Now I don't even know you
Or why I even care
Bizarre tales and mysteries
Keep asking why you're there
Somebody's leaving
Desert eyes enraged
Too busy watching
While nothing stays the same
Now you don't even know me
Or why I really care
Looking through the windows
Seeing sand blown in despair
Everybody's saying
Something's gone wrong
Enemies surround you
It's been silent for so long
Now I can't even see you
It's better left this way
Fading fast in memories
I knew you'd never stay
7. The Man Who Never Was
Just when you think you can face it alone
Just when you think you've seen it all
Echoes of confusion keep hiding the illusion
Wasted hours and years go on and on
Some say the night is betrayed by the sun
Some say the world is never fair
Time is unforgiving and you know you've been living
In the shadows of a man who never was
Now seeing is believing
Some things will never change
The question is the answer
The words get rearranged
Now yesterday's a memory
What will you do today
If pieces of tomorrow
Are things you throw away
Not every sinner finds comfort in hell
Not every saint loves the angels they sell
Sometimes I wonder if the spell that I'm under
Leads me to the things I'll never find
8. Stingray Part III
Destiny's a cold, dead hand, tempting me with nowhere
Rise and fall, but after all, today is dying somewhere
Possibly a part of me still believes I can
There was a time when only my mind said where it all began
Say, can you show me
What should I believe
Walking in shadows
'Til the day I step into my grave
A messenger, an empty page written by a dead man
Wake to find, but can't deny, the book's never been opened
Possibly a part of me still believes I care
Welcome the time when nothing inside says, "here's the line you fear"
Say, can you tell me
Who should I believe
Hiding in shadows
'Til the day I step into my grave
Say, can you tell me
Who should I believe
Hiding in shadows
'Til the day I step into my grave
Can't you see the part of me burning in the fire
Darker now than anything, temptation fuels desire
Love the soul and hate the man, nothing new, you say
I'd believe in stories too if I knew no other way
Say, can you show me
What should I believe
Walking in shadows
'Til the day I step into my grave
A eulogy, a silent psalm spoken by a deaf man
Try to hide, but can't decide, the spell's never been broken
Could it be a part of me still believes I can
Cursing the time when something inside said, "here's the life you planned"
Say, can you tell me
Who should I believe
Hiding in shadows
'Til the day I step into my grave
9. Moments Of Silence
10. Imitation Of Christ
Who am I deceiving when I place my trust
Devotion saved by mysteries, two thousand years of rust
If evil is the enemy, dish it out in spades
Crucified, now you decide just how this world was made
Meditation on the death of all I think and feel
Behind a wall of solitude, who can see what's real
Vanity's a poison pill, you fail at every turn
Glorified, you can't decide, and now you'll never learn
I can feel the desolation, chaos in my soul
Promising a new beginning, still I lose control
So they say that my reflection pales next to you
How can I trust myself to see it through with you
Everyday, a new temptation, something I can't say
Trusting my imagination, blind in every way
Would you say that I'm a theif for imitating you
Why would you even trust me if I do, should you
11. Last Chance... GremlinX
Walking in circles, wondering what might
Turn into, come back to, who knows what's right
Take every moment, you'll see it's true
Some laughing, some crying, what else can I do
Victims of choices, only one life
Paste tenses, last chances, fading into night
Losers and winners feeling the same
No ending, no denying, tell me who's to blame
No time for me to say
No time for you
Whatever sense it made
Won't be the same again
You'll turn away and find it's gone
Born to live and die the same as everyone
Read the lines they carve below your name
Will it say the past is just where you belong
Or will they live forever in your song
No time for me to say
No time for you
Whatever sense it made
Won't be the same again
You'll turn away and find it's gone
Now the demons you can leave behind
Fall along the way
Scattered on a world of dreams
See it everyday
Now they're gone
Yeah, they're gone
Now they're gone
Yeah, they're gone
If it's you and me, then who decides
Why the voices come
On and on, the echo flies
Burning in the sun
Now it's done
Yeah, it's done
Now it's done
Yeah, it's done
