1. The Divide

2. New World Torture

We are the underground
They know nothing of our sound
We are the underground
They know nothing of our sound

This one's for the pigs at the top
You know nothing of us
You know nothing of us
We're in the gutter singing
We won't give up
With our fingers crossed
Baptized in blood
Sick of watching with our mouths sewn shut
Raise the flag, sound alarms
Look at the state of me, you, us

Brainwashed [16x]

Are you skeptic?
Born and bred negative?
Are you dead set suffering?
Giving up?
Are you spoon fed?
Coughing up the ignorance?
Are you brain dead?
Loathing? Pulling at teeth?

Kill or cure
This is new world torture
Kill or cure
This is new world torture

If we have to kill the living to live
Prescribe plague and clean our slates with disease
(We won't follow)
They'll lead us straight to the grave
(There's no sorrow)
Convinced the answer's in the dust and debris

This is new world torture
Yeah

We're fighting fighting with fighting
Our unity is divided
This is the system declining on us
Put a nail in my coffin and light it up
Our condition is critical

We're fighting fighting with fighting
Our unity is divided
This is the system declining on us
Put a nail in my coffin and light it up
Our condition is critical

If we have to kill the living to live
Prescribe plague and clean our slates with disease
(We won't follow)
They'll lead us straight to the grave
(There's no sorrow)
Convinced the answer's in the dust and debris

If we have to kill the living to live
Prescribe plague and clean our slates with disease
(We won't follow)
They'll lead us straight to the grave
(There's no sorrow)
Convinced the answer's in the dust and debris

Seamless as it was
Before the winter came
The trenches will shelter our young
While we ration others save
We came paired for the worst
Frantic, out of luck
Chosen by our tragedies
To make the best of us
To make the best of us (Hey)

3. Your Evolution

This one’s for the gutter rats and the underdogs
For the have and the have not's
For the sinking ships and the hopeless
Guilty are the filthy rich
For the broken homes for the debt
For the sick and the deadbeat
For the sleepwalking who think their living the dream

YOU’VE GOT NOTHING

We are the souls who’ve been forgotten

This is a dead society
Built on sorrow, we’ll beg steal or follow
Control, consume
What the fuck are we to do
We’re being led to the slaughter

Pride, conviction, of a life, much to weak
We’ve been failed, by the system
Built to kill, they never listen

For freedom of speech, there’s not much to be said
Cut off your tongue and stand instead
You might get answers from them

(Believe in nothing, but yourself)

Souls who’ve been forgotten
Sing this with me
How can we live in fear of a mystery that we’ll never see?
Souls who’ve been forgotten, sing this with me

I put the bullet back in
Broadcast the reason
We won’t suffocate
This is your evolution
Don’t wait to be saved

Destroy, what destroys you
We’re been captured
We’ve been branded
Our lives were the mad mans slaughter
No future vision disorder
Don’t look up, look forward

DESTROY WHAT DESTROYS YOU

(Believe in nothing, but yourself)

Souls who’ve been forgotten
Sing this with me
How can we live in fear of a mystery that we’ll never see?
Souls who’ve been forgotten, sing this with me

I put the bullet back in
Broadcast the reason
We won’t suffocate
This is your evolution
Don’t wait to be saved

4. Brainwashed

This is the resistance movement
A new life for the executed
The blacklisted soul recruitment, brainwashed!
Turn it off, turn it off, turn it off

We're spilling our guts, we're spitting our blood
Who's first in the river?!
Stop struggling, struggling
You'll only sink further in

We're spilling our guts, we're spitting our blood
Who's first in the river?!
They're throwing you in a lifeline, down to hell they'll sing

Mislead, mislead, drain us of our
Differences keep the freedom of life under the gun
they'll take our rights we'll take them back again
they'll take our rights we'll take them back again

This is a death race, just another world trait of a broken system
It's like the blind lead the blind to the wrong decision
Possessed by the pace of life, we'll burn a living
They're running out of plots to bury the casualties
Out of sight, out of mind

Mislead, mislead, drain us of our differences
Keep the freedom of life under the gun
They'll take our rights, we'll take them back again
They'll take our rights, we'll take them back again

We won't fail, we'll find a way
We won't fail, we'll find a way
We won't fail, we'll find a way
We won't fail, we'll find a way
We won't fail, we'll fucking find a way
We won't fail, we'll find a way

Tell us how to think, tell us what we need
Tell us how to live, show us who to be
Another product of the system
Turn it off, turn it off

We're being brainwashed!

5. We Are Alive At Night

[Instrumental]

6. Our Legacy

If you want words to live your life by,
Walk the graves, walk the graves.
It’s written on the head stones.
If you want words to live your life by,
Walk the graves, walk the graves.
It’s written on the head stones,
Time waits for no one.
We are living proof of a world gone mad,
But this is all we have. We spin in cycles, we drift in the dark.
Our world falling apart.

Chance made us brothers,
Loyal to the last breath I take.
Our legacy won’t be wasted on me.

Side by side through thick and thin.
In the darkest times together we’ll be,
Searching for life in all we have left.
We won't be servants of time, not alive in regret.

Live every moment as if it was your last,
Honour the past, but never look back.
I should count my blessings for all I have,
And the fact I ever had the chance made us brothers,
Loyal to the last breath I take.
Our legacy won’t be wasted on me.

We’ll be singing from the fire with smoke in our eyes.
Coalition deprived, we are alive at night.

If you want words to live your life by,
Walk the graves, walk the graves.
It’s written on the head stones.
If you want words to live your life by,
Walk the graves, walk the graves.
It’s written on the head stones,
Time waits for no one.

Our legacy won’t be wasted on me.
Chance made us brothers,
Loyal to the last breath I take.
Our legacy won’t be wasted on me.

7. Four Walls

So when the saints go marching in
They won't be singing for your sins
They just hope to hell you've learnt something
Living and breathing

Everybody dies with a debt
No silence, watching death is how we live
Take it or leave it
Don't waste your breath
I clear my mind, deny real life, define "here"
Without borders, possessions or enemies

Everybody dies with a debt
We all die for a life that we fear we will only forget
Or confess to a God that we know we only hear in ourselves

Bottle it up, let your problems distill
Forget your dreams or fulfill them
Leave no trace, waste away
It's time for change

So when the saints go marching in
They won't be singing for your sins
They just hope to hell you've learnt something
Living and breathing

Four walls in this prison
But I can still see the river
Four walls in this prison
Lies to poison your decisions in life, take note

(Now you tell me why you're living a lie)
Don't ignore it, now you know
I saved my soul
I sold it to the open road

I found hope in the wreckage of progress
Trophies shattered and stained
("Do what you're told")
There's a mould to be broken
A light burning over your name

(And I saved my soul)
But I never said I wasn't the culprit
Never said I wasn't deceived
(I saved my soul)
Just trying to rewrite the wrongs
That were written on me
(I saved my soul)

Everybody dies with a debt
We all die for a life that we fear we will only forget
(I saved my soul)
Or confess to a God that we know we only hear in ourselves

So when the saints go marching in
They won't be singing for your sins
They just hope to hell you've learnt something
Living and breathing

8. Torment

I don't regret the times I spent spilling problems down my neck
Blood of Christ gone straight to my head
Like-minded negative influence

You've probably heard it all before but I'll say it again
I'll put my trust in poison
The smoke signals, it's time for change
The smoke signals, will you rescue me?

We're all fathers to a grave, we'll kill ourselves in our own way
And mothers to a faith that lets us learn from our mistakes
We'll always just remain the serving saviours of decay,
Cutting off our nose to spite our face

Still I'm no better off than I was
Still at the bottom no matter how high
We are still at the bottom no matter how high

The smoke signals, as I lay below
The smoke signals, tearing at my throat and I'm spitting blood

Won't rest compulsive, dependant on delusion
I'm getting tired of the same excuses
I set myself to self destruct because the truth hurts too much
I'll sleep in recovery
My heart racing
Facing the devil's smile

Still I'm no better off than I was
Still at the bottom no matter how high
A heart full of love that I lost
A handful of hope that'll get me by

All our needs will fade, we'll sleep in recovery
Suffer to save
This is my request for forgiveness
My blood has spilled
I confessed to my demons
And they don't regret a fucking thing

9. Kangaezu Ni

[Instrumental]

[Without Thought]

The times we live in can very easily be drowned in stress, confusion and disharmony. The way we perceive our thoughts plays a very significant role in the rise and fall of our emotions and can be the difference between suffering or blissfulness. Maybe, everyone now and then can be ‘Kangaezu Ni’ and sink into the here and now.

10. Life In Tension

Look me in the eyes, I am no one’s fool
Victim of nothing, prey to no one, cut the noose
There’s an escape route, but I’m not gonna take it
I won’t let it win
Our Saviour’s in our head, it’s in our hands but we burn the candle at both ends
Two fingers to the world
Fuck your life of suffering
I’ve got nothing to prove
They say ‘The best way out is always through’

Walk the rope, walk the rope
from everything to nothing
Hope you know, hope you know
this music is our therapy
A song for those who never give up
And walk the rope, walk the rope
We will overcome

Cornered by a life in tension
Take my hand, we will overcome
Living out a life in tension, cure us of the pain
Realize we’re all afraid
Real life is not for me
I’ll die singing:
‘Dreamers, we live the nightmare’
This crisis all inclusive,
survive on poor excuses
You’ll get out what you give in

There’s an escape route, but I’m not gonna take it
I won’t let it win
Do you feel like the rain is following you?

Don’t be the prey!
Don’t be the praying hands.
Don’t be the prejudice
of a life we’re yet to live.

Walk the rope, walk the rope
from everything to nothing
Hope you know, hope you know
this music is our therapy
A song for those who never give up

walk the rope, walk the rope
From everything to nothing
Hope you know, hope you know
This music is our therapy
A song for those who never give up
And walk the rope, walk the rope
We will overcome

11. Trophies Of Violence

Three years gone,
I’m still searching for the future of the broken young
This isn’t living, surviving with hope
Hold on, protect everything that you love and know
We are all victims of our own evolution
We suffer together, but we all die alone
We shame our nation while it’s on its knees
Stretched to breaking point with new disease
Won't you sing this with me?

We’ve strayed too far to be saved.
I’ve been told
The fastest growing sickness lives inside of me
Cut or suffer,
Beg or differ.
Can’t you see?
It’s in the minds of the weak
Who think they’re better than the shit we’re living in

Black our eyes
Take our tongues
We’re paying for the way shit should have been done
Fuck it
We’re paying for the way shit should have been done
And still we beg
But still we beg
With our head in our hands to a myth with a message,
But no escape plan.
Suffering show us what we should have done
We’re overdosed, we’re overrun
Our pride, our triumph
Trophies of violence

Always deceived by a false allegiance
To feed the ones that give in
Tear down our idols
Trophies of the violence

We’re back to set the record straight
We’re rage romantic and full of hatred
Some inspiration right now would suffice
This whole world is dreaming of a better fucking life

Thirsty parasites
We're dead behind the eyes
Of mindless genocide
We cannot stomach in our vile pride
It tastes like shit
But most of us don’t care
And the rest will never hear this,
The flat line criticals
We clot the bleed and cauterise
Just to get by
Predisposed and true to form
We rape the world of all it holds
We got the earth of all it has call it hell when can’t give back

We are a living abortion, a vile creation
But let’s make the best of a bad situation
Let’s make the best of a bad situation

Black our eyes, take our tongues
We’re paying for the way shit should’ve been done
Fuck it
We’re paying for the way shit should’ve been done

(You think you're nothing like these creatures)

Suffering show us what we should have done
We’re overdosed, we’re overrun
Our pride, our triumph
Trophies of violence
Always deceived by a false allegiance
To feed the ones that give in
Tear down our idols
Trophies of the violence
But it’s not the end of the world
Yet.

12. No Sides, No Enemies

We confide, they confuse, they resist, they refuse
We're the product of the feud
Where's the unity?
Defy the rules, we can decide for our self
Deprived of truth
Where's the unity?
With nothing left to lose we're singing:
No sides, no enemies
We're searching for a place where
We'll never be deceived

We'll win by understanding
Not reacting; it's my ship that's sinking
On our world not theirs

We'll lead the blind
Choose to read between the lines
Are you haunted by the future?
Are you afraid of the answers you need?
Are we loyal or have we fled?
The notes are dirty we will wage the debt

Sick of thinking what we could've been
Saving up to fund the bitter end
Tied to blame
Sick of thinking what we could've been
Tied to blame
Saving up to fund the future, the bitter end

Tied to blame for the pain inside
Sworn to change like the guilty on the line
No sides, no enemies
We'll never be deceived

Tied to blame for the pain inside
Sworn to change like the guilty on the line
No sides, no enemies
We'll never be deceived

Tied to blame for the pain inside
Sworn to change like the guilty who lie to survive
No sides, no enemies
I'm surrounded by the people I need

Don't take your time for granted
Don't chase your life away
It's not coming back
Take what is yours; demand it
We're gripping tight at the reigns

Are you drowning in the shallows?
Are you to blame for you actions?
Carry the banner, I hope you know:
There's a world outside that could be yours

There's a world outside that could be yours
Where's the unity?
There's a world outside that could be yours
Where's the unity?
This is our protest song, you're not alone
Where's the unity?
There's a life proscribed but I want more
Raise your fist if you're for it
Raise your fist if you're for it
Raise your fist if you're for it

13. The Woods

[Instrumental]

14. Method In Madness

Our angels
Just the devil's disguise
Widowed of life
For lies but not to die
They suffer
Watching believers cry
Wishing they could tell you there's no afterlife
Not this time

But there's no smoke without the fire
No conviction
No land without divide
No cure for the corrupted
No peaceful antidote
No search for the stranded
We're not lost
There's method in this madness

It's just another mass production
Here to poison our outlook
The front seats to a holocaust
Don't look, don't look, don't look
You listen to the priest with no proof
You listen to the siren as it gives up on you
You listen to the governing dead
Why don't you listen to your heart instead?

You've heard it all before
The crown you wear makes you numb to the thorns
We live in these thorns
Surrounded by a blood sport culture
There's nowhere to run

The lies won't take away your pain
There's a chain across the gates
And the skies have turned to grey

They're calling out your name
Sign here to keep your faith
March to the sound of the victim's beat
The unforgivable breed

With the spikes dug in I clench my fist
Decide what I believe
The idols of our breed
Are lost in our deceit
Our minds on what the hell we might have been
Our angels boarded in
We'll prolong acceptance with defeat
No sleep for the wicked

You listen to the priest with no proof
You listen to the siren as it gives up on you
You listen to the governing dead
Why don't you listen to your heart instead?

The lies won't take away your pain
There's a chain across the gates
And the skies have turned to grey
The masses are calling out your name
Sign here to keep your faith
Sign here to keep your faith...

15. Modern Minds

We'll choose our lives with blind intent
Haunt ourselves with fear of change
Struggle, save, watch time repeat
Let them treat our innocence
Take our freedom, take our rights
Teach us how to conquer life
By the book, by guiding light
Within the lines of modern minds
Too many misery victims born and raised
Drip feed the casualties
Turn it off, turn it off; fuck the company
No faith, no faith, no faith in me
There’s no time to waste
Landmines in the graves
Holding on to youth
Refuse

And all you wanna know is where we go in the end
Transfixed, dope sick, time to waste
And how do we get out of this hell that we live
My hatred’s pulling me in
We’ll choose our lives with blind intent
Haunt ourselves with fear of change
Struggle, save, watch time repeat
Let them treat our innocence
Take our freedom, take our rights
Teach us how to conquer life
By the book, by guiding light
Within the lines of modern minds
Don’t give up, give up, give up on yourself
Brainwashed like everyone else
Don’t bottle your dreams, hide them away
Cold future, no escape

Don’t speak knives
Don’t speak knives
Don’t speak knives on what our future could be
