HASTE THE DAY LYRICS

1. 68


I am the one you will call the destroyer
The messenger of my disgrace (I am my own disease)
You sit on your throne of compassion
The charges will fall as we all go marching so helplessly on
We came this far to tear the curtain
Shed light so I can see your eyes
Shed your light on me
What Is this unhealthily obsession, to destroy everything you create?
(I am my own disease)
You, the God of the broken and wretched
The charges will fall
I am my own disease
I carried the weight of this burden I've watch as they all fell away.
It's not just a dream, it's a nightmare

[x2]
We came this far to tear the curtain
Shed light so I can see your eyes
Shed your light on me

[x2]
We wall fall to ruin if we don't bury disguises that we've made
We will see the finish if we would carry ourselves to the end of the race
The charges will fall
I am my own disease


2. Mad Man


You said it yourself.
To convalesce from empty sorrow, someone had to squeal.
To dive to the bottom.
You said I know. I know it's not your fault.
Like wire around your bones you would never numb.
I take it I'm a mad man, but I would never squeal.
I never said it was no good.
The innocent will rest in the peace they've been given.
Paintings will sleep on the floor.
Build walls of lonely dreams as beauty fades.
I can't take this anymore.
Lock yourself up like a bird in a cage.
You sing but no one ever listens.
How much were you paid to sell out the mad man?
Like a scientist or a master of design.
I knew exactly what I was doing.
And I heard of your disease, and shots of penicillin barely kept you alive.
The innocent will rest in the peace they've been given.
Paintings will sleep on the floor.
Build walls of lonely dreams as beauty fades.
I can't take this anymore.
I am the clone. I dwell in silence. [x4]
The innocent will rest in the peace they've been given.
Paintings will sleep on the floor.
Build walls of lonely dreams as beauty fades.
I can't take this anymore.


3. Haunting


We are but captives. We are diseased. We know that one day we will be free. [x2]
I've seen it again and again.
We just have to close the door and we can't ever let them in.
You got what you wanted.
You got what you wanted so just go.
And now you can't make a single noise.
So what do you have to lose?
You got what you wanted.
Subject to the judgment of a fool.
You got what you wanted so just go.
Am I meant to follow? What is it to lead?
The tone of a steady voice or the sound of a piercing scream?
The dirt under my fingernails tells of the grave I'm digging.
And I know there's something out there that I have to see that's haunting me. (see that's haunting me)
We'll kill the parasite that lingers in our skin.
The loss of appetite.[x2]
But you got what you wanted. [x2]
Am I meant to follow? What is it to lead?
The tone of a steady voice or the sound of a piercing scream?
The dirt under my fingernails tells of the grave I'm digging.
And I know there's something out there that I have to see that's haunting me. (see that's haunting me)
They'll never know, they'll never know. I'm not exactly what they wanted.
The man they thought I was began to die.
We just have to close the door and we can't ever let them in.
You got what you wanted, now you'll find somewhere to begin.
We are but captives. We are deceased. We know that one day we will be free. [x2]
The dirt under my fingernails tells of the grave I'm digging. And I know there's something out there that I have to see that's haunting me. (see that's haunting me [x2])


4. Resolve


Can you feel the tension?
Have you heard the voices of the lost?
Churning up the fire
To reach the dark side of you
When the walls decide to close in
And the floor disappears beneath you
Just hang on to our last words and...Resolve
Touch your hands to water
Place them on the fire
Have faith
The flame will lose it's strength
Just touch your hands to water
Hold your breath for one more second
Soak the torch in kerosene
And light the match and
Watch as it all closes in
Can you feel the tension
Can you hear the voices of the lost?
Just hang out to our last words and...Resolve
Our lives will hang on the words
You have spoken
And we will wait for our God to return
Lift your hands to the Heaven
Let your heart be encased in flames
Touch your hands to water
Place them on the fire
Have faith
The flame will lose it's strength
Just touch your hands to water
Our lives will hang on the words
You have spoken
And we will wait for our God to return
Lift your hands to the Heaven
Let your heart be encased


5. An Adult Tree


So cold, your icy fingers around my neck.
You offer these rotten apples, begging me to taste and see.
I'll take just one bite.
I know your coming like a bad dream when your demons fall to place, perverting all the answers.
Corrupting what's inside you, believing everything, cut deeper to the core.
But we know what's inside.
Go to bed, young dreamer.
A prophet you'll arise to call us out.
Go to bed, young dreamer.
You tell of our decline, but you follow us down.

(We know what's inside)
The breathe of a fallen angel brings death if you breathe it in,
although you know what dwells inside.

[x2]
To bite down, to chew, and to swallow.
To muscle it down to dissolve.
Bed ridden, shivering fever.
Follow it down.

[x2]
Your icy fingers around my neck.
Offering destruction, begging me to taste and see.
So I take just one bite.
It's the poison in your veins.
It's the shiver down your spine.
Cut deeper to the core.
But we know what's inside.
To bite down, to chew, and to swallow.
To muscle it down to dissolve.
Bed ridden, shivering fever.
To follow it down.

[x2]
And we know you'll bite down and you'll follow us under the ground.
Go to bed, young dreamer.
A prophet you'll arise to call us out.
Go to bed, young dreamer.
You tell of our decline, but you follow us down.
(We know what's inside)


6. Babylon


Foresee the day of the Lord
The Heavens blacken above them
The day will bring no light
For I will shake the heavens
Raise the flag on the hilltop
For now we march to Babylon
Say a prayer for the fallen
It's time to choose which side you are on
Hear the noise on the mountain
From the furthest horizon
Pick up the pieces as they fall
Whoa, whoa
Our sins wont carry our burdens
So will you leave them behind?
While I've been held behind these walls
Whoa, whoa
Will I be left or forgotten?
They run like the hunted
For now we march to Babylon
In the darkest of days
The mighty failure has gone
Most glorious of all kingdoms
Will fall like a stone
From the Heavens
Pick up the pieces as they fall
Whoa, whoa
Our sins wont carry our burdens
While I've been held behind these walls
Whoa, whoa
Will I be left or forgotten?
Foresee the day of the Lord
The Heavens blacken above them
The day will bring no light
For I will shake the heavens


7. Invoke Reform


Cold in panic
Keep me away from this.
In this damp air, there's ignorance in bliss
Have you ever seen when the stars go out and it blackens the scenery.
No way around it.
I'm sorry I may not amount to much.
In secret I'm dirty, and I've chosen to give up.
There's something about your motives that never answer the questions.
The ending of all disasters will invoke reform.
No way around it.
I'm sorry I may not amount to much.
In secret I'm dirty, and I've chosen to give up.
Invoke the progress of a simple mind in a factory.
Invoke the progress when the stars go out and it blackens the scenery.
No where you runnin'
I'm sorry I may not amount to much
In secret I'm turning in
I've chosen to give up
No way around it. x2
(No way around it)
I'm sorry I may not amount to much.
Cold in panic
Keep me away from this.
In this damp air, there's ignorance in bliss


8. Sons Of The Fallen Nation


This is a celebration of the ones who lost their chance to die.
Will you believe the masses or will you overcome?
We are the sons of the fallen nation.
We hold the keys to our demise.
And grace will kiss your head as you fall asleep.
I'm so tired of always letting you down
Still you offer to turn it around
I just can't seem to get my feet on the ground
Still you offer to turn it around
This is your one distraction ,weakening your ability to grow
So you'll push yourself further away.
Eyes of zeros, of nothing.
Still you throw it all away
And you'll push yourself further and further away
I'm so sick of the desire
To throw it away
And I feel so expired
So I'll bury my head and dissolve
I'm so tired of always letting you down
Still you offer to turn it around
I just can't seem to get my feet on the ground
Still you offer to turn it around
Sever the head of a snake
Lie there and wait for distraction
Sever the head of a snake
Lie there and wait for the pain to sink in
I'm so tired of always letting you down
Still you offer to turn it around
I just can't seem to get my feet on the ground
Still you offer to turn it around
Sever the head of a snake


9. Labyrinth


We are unfortunately ever so self-destructive
We live inside this labyrinth
Waiting to go home
Labyrinth oh labyrinth
Your worst is what we'd might expect from you
And in your twisted walls you sing out of tune
"Come in"
Labyrinth oh labyrinth
Your most is what we'd not expect from you
And in your tired walls you sing out of tune
"Come in make your self at home"
'Cause you wont be leaving soon.
All your friends are dead and gone
And you've got nothing to lose."


10. Porcelain


You tried to spit at the sun, put it out like a burning ember.
She has a porcelain soul.
As you crawl under the moon.
Make this bed and sleep forever.
She has a porcelain soul 'cause the life you live is less than alive.
As they scream, "let them burn," you know she'll burn at the hands of your kin.
As they scream, "let them burn," you know you won't forgive them
She crawls through the dirt like a four legged spider.
He's there laying beside her.
When the serpents tongue is wrapped around her neck.
"let them burn,"
"let them burn,"
And he knows that she died inside.
And he knows.
Open hands hold porcelain souls into the eyes of a traitor.
I still see a believer.
The witness is here.
She's a witch and I love her.
Buy back her soul with the blood of the savior.
Is it too much to forgive?
The witness is here.
Open hands hold porcelain souls.
She falls to her knees and she begs for forgiveness as the Heavens open their gates.
The wood burns and the fire blazes, but he bought back her soul with the blood of the savior.


11. Autumn


Red leaves blow in the wind, leaving home and everything it's known behind.
Barren branches wave goodbye as the red leaves slowly die.
Every flower stares and watches as the wind it takes me away before the sun shone upon me.
Now the wind it takes me away.
