THIS IS HELL LYRICS

1. Dead Salutes

We're all just singing along to the same tired beats and hollow songs, as if there's nothing wrong.
These are familiar games.
They're well rehearsed on a well worn stage.
And everyone is lining up with dead salutes and lifeless priase.
The actors are all droning on and underneath said tired song.
A battered throat, attempts to choke, and make a sound that's been gone for too long.
If tonight is all we'll ever know, then tonight I'm ripping flesh from bone.
I'm slashing throats from ear to ear.
I'm screaming so the deaf can hear.
(Tonight) is all we'll ever know.
(Tonight) I'm ripping flesh from bone.
(Tonight) slashing throats from ear to ear.
(Tonight) screaming so the deaf can hear.
Tonight is all we know.
These are familiar games, they're well rehearsed on a well worn stage.
Battered throats forever choke, to take back everything that's been taken away.
We take back everything.
These are the anthems for all your darkest days, get used to them they may not go away.
These are the lullabies for all your sleepless nights.
This is a latter to you hidden in plain sight.
(Tonight) is all we'll ever know.
(Tonight) I'm ripping flesh from bone.
(Tonight) slashing throats from ear to ear.
(Tonight) screaming so the deaf can hear.
So lock your doors, bar your windows, learn to love the solitude, run and hide.

2. Heaven Sent, Hell Bound

Bless me father for you have sinned.
It's been twenty years since you've shown your face.
And I must confess, it's hard to keep the faith.
(It's hard to keep the faith)
So forgive me if I've gone astray, but seeing is believing;
And you're selling me a story that isn't very convincing.
Bless me father for you have sinned.
It's been twenty years since you've shown your face.
And I must confess, it's hard to keep the faith.
So forgive me if I've gone astry, but seeing is believing;
And you're selling me a story that isn't very convincing.
Heaven sent hell bound.

3. Diamond Lanterns

Fuck dewlling on past romances; they've moved on there's no second chances.
We know these streets like the back opf our hands.
I would love to live in the now, but we can't we never knew how.
We're drawing maps of descent until we know where we stand.
Let go of all that regret, quit your job embrace the debt.
(We've been tattered and we've been torn)
And that's the reason we were born.
(We've been deceived and strung along)
And that's the reason we were born.
(We're pushing on, weary though we are, we're pushing on)
Diamond lanterns, burning bright, we are the match that ignites.
Fuck dwelling on past mistakes, fucking giving, it's my turn to take.
We know these streets like the back of our hands.
What a tangled web we weave when we try to live our dreams.
We're drawing maps of descent until we know where we stand.
Diamond lanters, burning bright, we are the match that ignites.

4. Moving Targets

I'll leave it burning,
And I won't be coming back again to this dismal town
Filled with fair-weather friends.
This time (this time)
I'll break ties with the greatest of ease.
Expect the worst from me, I'll come through like you wouldn't believe.
We built this life, and now it's ours (we built this life and now it's ours).
We'll leave this town for dead (dead).
Leave these streets and take with us our scars.
We built this life, and now it's ours (we built this life and now it's ours).
We'll leave this town for dead (dead).
Leave these streets and take with us our scars.
I'll leave it burning, and I won't be coming back again,
Because this town toure me down and I had to built myself back up again.
Snow falls (snow falls) on the sight of your first kiss.
I'm running out of places to hide.
I always knew it would come to this.
We built this life, and now it's ours (we built this life and now it's ours).
We'll leave this town for dead (dead).
Leave these streets and take with us our scars.
We built this life, and now it's ours (we built this life and now it's ours).
We'll leave this town for dead (dead).
Leave these streets and take with us our scars.
Apologies to my friends and family for my songs ending up this way.
Each word, each line, just a fragment of whatever it is that I was trying to say (farewell).
If you get one parting gift, it's that I carry memories like a bag of bricks (farewell).
And if you've seen the last of me, well then you've seen the very best of me.
I'll leave it burning and I won't come back.

5. Ad Infinitum

We breathe on borrowed time.
We light these torches far too late.
Inhale, exhale, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat.
The only things that ever seem to last are fuck you songs and epitaphs.
So now we write new testaments on paper bags with ballpoint pens.
I'd rather listen than write, I'd rather sit down than fight.
When everyday is the same as the last, we'll know our time us running out fast.
Our lungs are working on borrowed time.
These days we steal will be remembered as crimes.
So inhale, (exhale), inhale, (exhale), repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat.
When every day is the same as the last, we'll know our time is running out fast.
We lit these torches far too late.
Our lungs are working on borrowed time.
These days will be remembered as crimes.
We light these torches far too late.
(We lit these torches far too late).
Inhale, exhale, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat.
When everyday is the same as the last, we'll know our time running out fast.
Our lungs are working on borrowed time.
We lit these torches far too late.
And now I know there's hell to pay.
