1. Red Razor Wrists
I'm not sorry for the way that I am
The price of power
When you've never had anything
How far would you go to have it all?
They told me I could have everything
But I never thought I'd have to take the fall
Oh so heavy lies the crown that you paid for
Greed is the priority, it's fucking killing me
Red Razor Wrists I don't know if I'll even make it to hell
Red Razor Wrists I don't know if I'll even make it to hell
It's like the harder I try the more I fail
I'M A GOD DAMN MONSTER
All my life searching for something
All my life it's left me with nothing now
Blood in my eyes
Blood on my hands
I can't see I can't feel anymore
Blood in my eyes
Blood on my hands
Oh so heavy lies the crown that you paid for
Go ahead and turn your back to me
Here's a big fuck you, the first one's free
On your knees or on the throne
In the end we all still die alone
Oh so heavy lies the crown that you paid for
Greed's the priority it's fucking killing me
It's like the harder I try the more I fail
I'M A GOD DAMN MONSTER
All my life searching for something
All my life it's left me with nothing now
Blood in my eyes
Blood on my hands
I can't see I can't feel anymore
Blood in my eyes
Blood on my hands
Oh so heavy lies the crown that you paid for
Blood in my eyes
Blood on my hands
Blood in my eyes
Blood on my hands
I'M A GOD DAMN MONSTER
2. Scars
The guilt, the shame drives you insane
Here we go!
Burn it all, burn it all, burn it all.
I’m not looking back,
There’s nothing to gain burning it all and ignoring the pain.
Tell me what’s the reason
Give me something to believe in.
Stop. This isn’t insecurity.
Stop. And I don’t know what you want from me.
Stop. Forcing your standards upon me.
Stop. Because I’m better than you’ll ever be.
I’ll never. I’ll never re-live my past again.
So don’t ever, don’t ever come at me like that again.
I’ll never. I’ll never re-live my past again.
So don’t ever, don’t ever come at me like that again.
And the scars that light up the sky
Show the strength in me
Through the pain and the sacrifice
There’s still strength in me
To take away the sorrow.
The more lives I touch the less I feel
End it all, mother fucker
And seal the deal.
I’m no stranger to the place where demons wait
They fill up my heart with hate so
Stop. This isn’t insecurity.
Stop. And I don’t know what you want from me.
Stop. Forcing your standards upon me.
Stop. Because I’m better than you’ll ever be.
I’ll never. I’ll never re-live my past again.
So don’t ever, don’t ever come at me like that again.
I’ll never. I’ll never re-live my past again.
So don’t ever, don’t ever come at me like that again.
I’m a bad, bad man without a doubt
I’ll chew you up and spit you the fuck out.
I’m calling you out
And now you’ll see there’s still strength in me.
I’m calling you out
And now you’ll see there’s still strength in me.
And the scars that light up the sky
Show the strength in me
Through the pain and the sacrifice
There’s still strength in me
To take away the sorrow.
3. Fountain Of Wishes
You may not like me but you'll remember my name,
I've never known what it's like to have a home,
Love me or hate me, I still end up alone.
All my temper, all my doubt are eating my soul.
No need to re-live the past, my memories are torn,
But tonight, I am reborn.
One more coin in a fountain of wishes,
You try and try and try,
You're too addicted to resisting.
The bitterest truth is always better than the sweetest lies.
The bitterest truth is always better than the sweetest lies.
Are you gonna face me? Or are you gonna run?
I am everything you said I could never be.
What's the matter?
Don't you recognize me when I'm standing above you.
The bitterest truth is always better than the sweetest lies.
And there's no way to hide when I look in your eyes.
The bitterest truth is always better than the sweetest lies.
And there's no way to hide when I look in your eyes.
They poisoned the best of me
...When I look in your eyes
They poisoned the best of me
...When I look in your eyes
But now I feel nothing!
One more coin in the fountain of wishes,
One more coin in the fountain of wishes,
One more coin in the fountain of wishes,
One more coin in the fountain of wishes,
One more coin in the fountain of wishes,
One more coin in the fountain of wishes.
4. Bring The Rain
We are setting the fires
that light the way
and as the flames burn
they blind us from the pain
but this path leads only
to our darkest days
so give me something to believe in
and I’ll bring the rain
I don’t need to escape from this maze
cause I’m about to set it all a blaze
it’s time to face my fears
the past is gone I’m still standing here!
I’m still standing here!
I’m looking for a match if you couldn’t tell
I won’t shy away from RAISING HELL!
We are setting the fires
that light the way
and as the flames burn
they blind us from the pain
but this path leads only
to our darkest days
so give me something to believe in
and I’ll bring the rain
[2x]
Raise the flags, rev the engines, let’s find something to believe in
Raise the flags, rev the engines, we are something to believe in!
Raise the flags, rev the engines…… THUNDER!
I believe!!!
I’ll bring the rain, you bring the thunder!
I believe
yeah you better believe!
I’ll bring the rain, you bring the thunder!
[2x]
I’m still standing here!
We are setting the fires
that light the way
and as the flames burn
they blind us from the pain
but this path leads only
to our darkest days
so give me something to believe in
and I’ll bring the rain
5. Pledge Your Allegiance
Get the fuck up
Take a step to the edge
Left behind far from bliss
Heartless coward
Suicide is painless but you've never felt it anyway
Soulless bastard
Never trust a snake slither soul on fire
There is no place for you
So run away, fade away
Get the fuck away from me
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Everything burns, so why give a fuck?
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Everything burns, so why give a fuck?
Pledge your allegiance to our anthem
[x2]
Generation hate
Generation hate
Generation hate
Pledge your allegiance
Hear it, feel it
Need it, want it
It's like a drug but no one supplies it
Dissatisfaction's guaranteed
So you can hear it, feel it
Need it, want it
I am the drug you fucking fiend
Now beg now plead
Motherfucker on your knees
Heartless coward
Soulless bastard bow
Heartless coward
Soulless bastard
I'll bet you're sorry now
I'll bet you're sorry now
While we're speaking of cowards
I'll look straight through you, a.k.a fuck you
Where are my manners?
I don't have to hurt you
I'll just let you kill yourself
Never trust a snake slither soul on fire
There is no place for you
So run away, fade away
Get the fuck away from me
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Everything burns, so why give a fuck?
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Everything burns, so why give a fuck?
Pledge your allegiance to our anthem
[x2]
Generation hate
Generation hate
Generation hate
Pledge your allegiance
Hear it, feel it
Need it, want it
Hear it, feel it
Need it, want it
6. The New Breed
So you thought that you were better than me?
I can no longer bite my tongue, bleed
I'm not one to run my mouth
When fists come to fists I'll put you on the ground
I've had enough of your bullshit
Forget everything you thought you knew
I'm coming straight cut throat now, what you gonna do?
I'm forever and you think you won't always be a failure
I'm not asking you, I'm telling you
Now what you gonna do?
Don't bro me if you don't know me
Don't fucking bro me if you don't know me
Fucking right
[x2]
Ready or not, we are the new breed
We are the new scene
So tell me now? Do you want it, yeah
Do you need it? Yeah
Step up, step up
Or get the fuck out the way, punk
Where you running?
I don't hear you talking now
It must be hard when there's a fist in your mouth
Gotta get it, gotta take what I want
Don't stand in my path
Or there's gonna be a bloodbath
Don't bro me if you don't know me
Don't fucking bro me if you don't know me
Fucking right
[x2]
Ready or not, we are the new breed
We are the new scene
So tell me now? Do you want it, yeah
Do you need it? Yeah
Step up, step up
Or get the fuck out the way, punk
7. A Toda Madrè Ò Un Desmadrè
8. Judgement
I refuse to be the victim
I've been on trial all my life
I refuse to be the victim
This is the part where I pull out the knife
I've been on trial all my life
This is the part where I pull out the knife
The world "love" it has no meaning to me
Just an abandoned ship lost in a black sea
Hide my scars
Hide my bruises from fight after fight
Pages in time I wish I could rewrite
We have all been here before
To a place you hate, you hate to adore
We have all been here before
To a place you hate, you hate yourself for
[x2]
I'm not holding my breath
I'm tired of trying
I've got nowhere to rest in a world that's dying
[x2]
Cursed is the man who dies
But the evil done by him survives
Welcome to no man's land
In a time that feels like a world war
No intervention for a global meltdown
It's too late to help
I feel it's out of my hands now
We have all been here before
To a place you hate, you hate to adore
We have all been here before
To a place you hate, you hate yourself for
[x2]
I'm not holding my breath
I'm tired of trying
I've got nowhere to rest in a world that's dying
I don't believe in this world anymore
All rise:
In the case of Danny Leal against the World
The jury has reached a verdict
We find the defendants guilty on all charges
Judgment
I refuse to be the victim
This is the part where I pull out the knife
I've been on trial all my life
This is the part where I pull out the knife
9. The World Is My Enemy Now
[x2]
No more respect, no more power
The whole world is my enemy now
Get up, get up
The whole world is my enemy now
Fuck
Now what makes you think I ever cared?
Just what the fuck you thought about me?
It's not likely
I'm sick and tired of being ignored
Cut the shit, I've heard this before
I've got no time for an alliance
I'm saying "fuck you" out of kindness
You're spineless
And you're in trouble, seeing double
Falling to the floor, quit
You don't want a war, bitch
[x2]
If it's a war that you're looking for
Let me see you come and get it
This ain't the war that you're looking for
Motherfucker come and get it
No more respect, no more power
The whole world is my enemy now
I've got a license to hate
All the backstabbing cowards that stood in my way
And you fucked yourself when you left me for dead
And left the scars I can't get out of my head
[x2]
Get out of my head, fuck
Give me a reason not to smash you out
Shut your fucking mouth, this is my house
My rules, if you don't like it, fuck you
You're in trouble, seeing double
Falling to the floor, quit
You don't want a war, bitch
[x2]
If it's a war that you're looking for
Let me see you come and get it
This ain't the war that you're looking for
Motherfucker come and get it
No more respect, no more power
The whole world is my enemy now
No more respect, no more power
The whole world is my enemy now
No more respect, no more power
The whole world is my enemy now
No more respect, no more power
The whole world is my enemy now
The whole world is my enemy now
The whole world is my enemy now
10. Blood, Sweat And Tears
Every thought [?] is a battle.
Every breath is ignored
And I'm tired of excuses.
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
Over and over and over again.
I've had enough. I've had enough.
This struggle has come to an end.
And I have no reason to make amends!
With blood, sweat, and tears.
I'm over it!
Used, abused, and held down by fear.
[2x]
In the shadow of a burning desire.
Can you stand alone in the fire?
If you're not with us, you're against us. No turning back! [2x]
We are the counter attack!
I refuse to fall!
We'll overtake it all!
Every thought is a battle.
Every breath is ignored.
And I'm tired of excuses.
You have been warned!
This is the point of no return.
I'm not going back.
I am the counter attack!
With blood, sweat, and tears.
I'm over it.
Used, abused, and held down by fears.
In the shadow of a burning desire, can you stand alone in the fire?
If you're not with us, you're against us. No turning back!
[2x]
We are the counter attack!
If you're not with us, you're against us. [2x]
1, 2, 3, 4!
We are the counter attack!
No turning back!
If you're not with us, you're against us. [2x]
No turning back! We are the counter attack!
11. I've Earned My Time
Yeah!
So say that I've changed
And call me a liar
It's funny what the fame can inspire
Shovel shit while they still say I didn't work for it
You haven't paid your dues
You couldn't stand in my shoes!
From the outside looking in
I remember where I came from and where I have been
So never again will I let you win
You don't know what I've been through
I earned my time alright!
We've earned our time!
I earned my time!
They said we fail no matter how hard we try
We kept coming!
We kept coming!
They said we wouldn't look the devil in his eyes!
We're not running!
We're not running!
From the outside looking in
I remember where I came from and where I have been
So never again will I let you win
You don't know what I've been through
I earned my time alright!
I'm on the outside (outside)
I'm on the outside looking in!
I'll never forget where I come from
And I'll never forget where I've been
I earned my time!
We earned our time!
From the outside looking in
I remember where I came from and where I have been
So never again will I let you win
You don't know what I've been through
I earned my time alright!
I'm on the outside (outside)
I'm on the outside looking in!
I'll never forget where I come from
And I'll never forget where I've been!
You haven't paid your dues!
You couldn't stand in my shoes!
You haven't paid your dues!
We earned our time!
12. Middle Finger To The World
Middle finger to the world!
Oh, middle finger to the world!
All this time
Instead of living in a dream world, you said I wouldn’t (no), I couldn’t (no), I shouldn’t (no)
Said I was left behind and need to stay alive, but I’m not like you, I’m one of a kind
I got a problem with authority so proving you wrong is a priority
You said I didn’t have the voice but now I’m making noise and with a rebel yell
We cry more, more, more
Don’t look back anymore
The blessings of the retched heart like the penance from the bastard gods
Don’t look back anymore
The blessings of the retched heart, never, never
I thought you weren’t supposed to be the closest or the furthest from me
I’m not a victim of jealousy and talking all that shit will get your head split, I don’t give a fuck
I see what I want and I take it, you’re just a bitter pawn of my creation
Still think my singing is out of line, can you see this crowd, I think I’m doing just fine
And with a smile on my face, I got a middle finger to the world
And another one just in case, move!
Middle finger to the world!
Oh, middle finger to the world!
Fight fire with fire where the odds are stacked
Fight fire with fire and don’t look back
Don’t look back anymore
The blessings of the retched heart like the penance from the bastard gods
Don’t look back anymore
The blessings of the retched heart, never, never
Don’t look back
I, I, I
I'll fight fire with fire with the odds all stacked (I’ll fight fire with fire, I’ll fight fire with fire)
What would you know about hurt, what would you know about death (I’ll fight fire with fire, I’ll fight fire with fire)
I'll fight fire with fire with the odds all stacked (I’ll fight fire with fire, I’ll fight fire with fire)
What would you know about hurt, what would you know about death (I’ll fight fire with fire, I’ll fight fire with fire)
(I’ll fight fire with fire, I’ll fight fire with fire)
(I’ll fight fire with fire, I’ll fight fire with fire)
(I’ll fight fire with fire, I’ll fight fire with fire)
(I’ll fight fire with fire, I’ll fight fire with fire)
(I’ll fight fire with fire, I’ll fight fire with fire)
