1. Stop! Before It's Too Late And We've Destroyed It All
I live
I stalk
I hunt
I eat
With indifference for all
I walk
I kill
I sleep
I breed
Slowly taking control
The sickest part of our species
Ravenous to evolve
We spread like a fucking disease
No vaccine protocol
And at the end of days
This will be our legacy
We
Kill, kill
Multiply
Until the skies are black
And the rivers dry
Take, take
Take our time
We leave no one else behind
Kill, kill
And deny
Until the skies are black
And the rivers dry
Take, take
We take our time
We leave nothing else behind
I don't
Feel anything
At all
As rats gnaw at my bones
I'm not
Made of the
Same things at all
A mechanical heart
The sickest part
Of our species
Ravenous to evolve
We spread like a fucking disease
No vaccine protocol
You cannot stop what never ends
2. Bleeding Is A Luxury
Ive talked the talk, I've walked the walk,
It's taken ten fucking years,
For them to see I don't need their approval.
I've paid the piper,
I've stayed my course,
Lived chomping at the bit.
With only blood, sweat, and tears to adhere to-
[Chorus:]
Open your eyes and see,
That it's so menacing,
You need to realize that bleeding is a luxury.
Give 'til there's nothing left,
Value in every breath,
You need to realize that bleeding is a luxury.
Take it for granted,
Forsake the costs,
Wear a big, shit-eating grin
(with only blood, sweat, and tears to adhere to)
Now bear the burden to chase your fate
Grind your teeth 'til it fucking hurts
So they can see I don't need their approval.
[Chorus]
Seize the day,
Take your beatings,
Lead the way,
Or decay as you fall down...
You fall down.
[Chorus]
It's a luxury,
Bleeding is a luxury!
3. Congregation Of The Damned
4. Coffin Nails
5. Black Days Begin
We're all hell bent on destruction
Trying to erase black spots on our souls
Hide from a violent eruption
Cataclysmic engulfing us all.
Lay down (lay down)
Tonight (tonight)
In front of the things
That conquer us all.
Your body, it taunts me
Your flesh is, oh so haunting.
[Chorus:]
Children of the night.
Throw your hands up in the air.
We all know we've lost the fight.
Hope dies out and we can see the end.
Black days begin.
Walk down this path of temptation
Deny the flesh ignore whats crawling below.
Stay true (stay true)
Stay cold (stay cold)
In front of the things
That conquer us all!
Your body, it taunts me
Your flesh is, oh so haunting.
[Chorus]
[Solos]
Your body, it taunts me
Your flesh is, oh so haunting.
[Chorus 2x]
6. Gallows
7. Storm To Pass
Razor wire
Gift wraps the things we've done
Afterthoughts
Of past storms weathered before
Oh, no! Oh, no!
I watch the clouds roll in
Oh, no! Oh, no!
It's happening again
[Chorus:]
I'll be watching, waiting
Dreadful, shaking
Will the storm pass over us today?
Will lighting strike our sins away?
Watching
Waiting
Falling
Shaking
Will the storm pass over us today?
Or is the future looking grey?
Aftermath
Much worse then it was before
Battle scars
Some are seen and some are not
Oh, no! Oh, no!
I watch the clouds roll in
Oh, no! Oh, no!
It's happening again
[Chorus]
You can't hide from thunder
And I never thought
We'd turn out this way, yeah!
You can't hide from thunder
[Solos]
Watching, waiting
Dreadful, shaking
Will the storm pass over us today?
Will lighting strike our sins away?
Watching, Waiting
Falling, Shaking
Will the storm pass over us today?
Or is the future looking grey?
Hey!
Hey!
8. You Were King Now You're Unconscious
There is no light in sight
Only a tunnel of pain
Only your legs will carry you
Carry you to the end!
Live your life for yourself
Or live for the struggle at best
Just don't let it strangle you
Just don't let it strangle you!
And after all this
No one will carry you home
And without a thought
You let your guard fall to the ground
Thought you were the king
But now it's gone
Taste the air as you pull it in your lungs
Try to savior it for one more song
The thick of the battle
A metaphor for this life
You never see it hit you
Until it smashes you in the face!
You try as best as you can
And I knock you down again
Just don't let it strangle you
Just don't let it strangle you!
And after all this
No one will carry you home
And without a thought
You let your guard fall to the ground
Thought you were the king
But now it's gone
Taste the air as you pull it in your lungs
Try to savior it for one more song
Get up!
Get up now
Get up right now!
I scream to myself
Get up!
Get up now
Get up right now!
I scream at myself
And after all this
No one will carry you home
And without a thought
You let your guard fall to the ground
Thought you were the king
But now it's gone
Taste the air as you pull it in your lungs
Try to savior it for one more song
9. Insatiable
10. So Wrong
11. Ravenous
12. Lonely
13. Wait For You
It started with a kiss and turned out something else.
The blood coursing through my veins I think of no one else
I never believed in much but I believe in this.
I'm incomplete without you, I'd kill to taste your kiss.
I'm lost and lonely,
Scared and hiding.
Blind without you.
[Chorus:]
When the the world comes crashing down and the skies begin to fall,
I'll wait for you
When the days grow old and long and my skins turns into stone,
I'll wait for you
When the pain it seems too much and my heart starts beating out of touch I don't need a thing,
I'll wait for you
It's all so different now, emotions burn me out.
I have a lifeless touch, this distance leaves no doubt.
I fear it all too much but part of me believes.
As the years pass away you made me recognize,
I'm lost and lonely,
Scared and hiding.
Blind without you.
[Chorus]
Yeah...
'cause I'll wait for you...
When the the world comes crashing down and the skies begin to fall,
I'll wait for you
When the days grow old and long and my skins turns into stone,
I'll wait for you
When the pain it seems too much and my heart starts beating out of touch I don't need a thing.
I know I don't need a thing.
I'll wait for you.
14. Bravery
