Sever. And step forward. I will separate myself from you. I will walk this line unassisted and undeterred. Sever. Sever the strings. I'll cast aside your uniform, your focus shifted too much for me to not question. Your sincerity. To manufacture misery...

Let me beat in your heart Be your drum of war and love Let me hide in your arms Be my cage, my key, my lock Let our bones collide Until the light falls like anvils from our eyes When our dreams ignite Disappear in their fire Be my deathless song Fil...

Your heart, your home, your voice, it's got a price tag Sign in blood, bury your rights in a body bag They're feeding fear through the fault lines You heard it here first, they got your freedoms on the front line Prime time, the noose at our throats Our l...

Shifting light outlines my battered form. Stranger to the world, alone in my abandonment. A gaining army of white horses, stark warning race before the icy front. The deceiving calm betrays all signs of impending change. Evening tide what do you hide,...

Your warm embrace has been replaced by cold And those defiant eyes have fallen Broken by the Floor Another rain-streaked face Left alone to drown in malice And your bleeding heart can only heal so much We can't weather this storm of longing And water ca...

My life is a weathered down shipwreck Splitting at the seams, held together by memories and dreams Every face I have seen, a stitch on my mind On a shadow of a dream And my heart is its cargo, a worn out old thing Been dragged around this rock more times...

Tragedy. Another day lies broken and lost. A shattered life cuts the pulse of acceptance. And all I want is to be something more then this. Another day lies broken and lost. A shattered life cuts the pulse of Acceptance. And all I want is to be anything...

Dear sky, Dear sky don't cry for me, be the hope I could never reach Cold sea, please don't let me sink Wrap your arms around me and carry me home I stood at the shore and spoke to the ocean I stood in the water and let my guts spill I said "You an...

These are the sentiments of a cold-blooded cynic. So believe me when I say I would love nothing more Than for everything to end unpleasantly. Concrete shoes. Rising tides. Grey skies. Let none survive. Don't say I didn't warn you. [x2] I would rat...

GO! I’ve heard enough No more, no more You’ve had your time in the sun Keep your head down kid, your fifteen seconds are done I know it hurts, I wanted it this way All these years, I’m still the voice you can’t destroy I know how this one ends Lying...

Black plagues line a fading sky. A dying world stripped to the bone. Intoxicated by the madness, blood weeps from open wounds. And still the fires rage. Consumed, now chaos reigns. Our pride dissolved, the rise and fall. The breaking point burned and...

Carrion. In a moment I’m lost, dying from the inside. Her eyes take me away. Tear me apart from the inside out. Dead eyes speak in volumes but our lips refuse to move. Could this ever be the last time, the final time that we see this through? Give me...

You sweep across the heavens, An extinction grade event And carve your name upon the gates Where angels fear to tread All hail my You shine like blood and diamonds, You sing like breaking glass You drag them out Into the street and turn their names to...

You answer to me I am the thunder and the rain The confusion and the pain And when I leave I will wash your wounds clean And leave them golden I got the whole world swingin' from the end of my chain And I'm calling I got your life in my hands and ever...

What will you tell your children when they ask you "what went wrong" How can you paint a picture of a paradise lost To eyes that know only a wasteland How will you justify watching the world die The clock is ticking, can't you feel our days are numbered...

Kill the lights I'm so sick of your face Another night wasted wishing you away Now I'm cut, I'm cut at the wrist But i still can't kill the pain I'd give anything to rip you from my head From my head The return of your voice marks another failure And i can fee...

When your lungs collapse, When your last breath fails. Upon reflection the fatal choice was yours alone. Convulsions constrict your flesh Into a portrait of agony. Crushed. Into a portrait of agony. Of agony. This, this is cataclysmic failure As your...

This is survival. This is my exile. I find no solace. I find no solace beneath a Godless sky. Will I find shelter in the places the Sun could never find? Now behold the consequence, the aftermath of ignorance, shackled to my worthless neck. Give me one r...

Twelve years I’ve fought for this Twelve years, my heart still beats For the ones who’ve stood beside me Still strong You can’t break me Twelve years I’ve fought for this Twelve years, my heart still beats For the ones who’ve stood beside me Through t...

Deliver me. From the darkest abyss, from the depths of eternal rest. Grasping at the threads of sanity, only to watch them slip through my hands. I see the light. I see the end. I see a frail hope, crushed by the weight of the world. I see the light. I...

Destroy, destroy, destroy, destroy. Destroyer We speak in lies, we speak in tongues We’ll see our damage done We live in dreams, we rest in peace Content to sleep in our chains Seven trumpets sound their discourse, nine circles of our devise Messages wr...

The warmth of your embrace Has lifted me from the ground The strength you've given me I can never truly thank you Through the darkness I found you by my side And I'll make this promise to you I will never let you down This is for every hour This is for every s...

Do you remember all those nights When we stood side by side And we said, "we'll save the goodbyes" The night is young We still have time In my dreams I see it ending I see the sky descending And I let the sadness empty from my heart 'Cause in m...

Like dragging nails through my skin Strip the scar, scratch the itch Dig your nails deep, until the nerve is good and raw Pulling teeth again, to pay for all your sins The blue pill or the red, all you want are enemies Feel the tension set to break We’...

Gazing upon your face Your love has released my heart To drown To sleep forever In your sweet embrace If i could reach the stars I'd place them in your eyes Just to remind me of such a timeless beauty Of you Lost myself to you I could not fall again Held here...

This is life. This is worthless. Is there consequence? This apathy is murderous. Hope is dead, Buried by regret. Alive for nothing And dying for even less. Is this the path we’ve chosen? Our minds and our future left to rot. These lives are worth not...

The night creeps through my bones with a winter's chill sending shivers down my spine, like cold hands across my skin. Five months have past and taken with them every sense of warmth, until my blood ran cold and life stood still. And still I hold my breath...

Shades drawn across No light may enter In my moment of weakness And this world is bearing down again So hard to clear my mind Why do i persist? I'll endure another day It's just so hard to resist And I can't continue on So hard to clear my mind To see the thou...

The devil’s at our door The Bloodwoods shiver in the glare of summers haze Dust of ancient lands breathes beneath our feet Since the dawn of time, giver of life divine Shadowed by dark ruination, looming down the line The poisoned lies of narrow minds...

Vanishing points and midnight horizons, Herald another night. Without you by my side. Bring me the light, Bring me the dawn, Bring me another day. But further, from your arms. And this world is frozen, And my limbs so numb. Feel the Frostbite....

You could never take my envy. You could never take my jealousy. You could never take my envy. You could never take my jealousy. A world without you is a world I could only wish for. A world with out is a world I'd fucking die for. You've taken everything...

I saw the disappointment from across your face. A mark of solitude. So here's to giving in. Your eyes have betrayed you. And ill wear this mask of disgust for every day I've met you. Disarm with a smile. Your eyes Betrayed me. String me another line as your kn...

Lies. My truth has been revealed, at the cost of everything I knew. My last safe-haven falls behind me, with the self that once consumed. Into the void. I'm pursuing only answers. I'm shedding skins and faces, past loves and bitter hatreds. And it has co...

Lie No more than shadows To be forgotten Fade away in time No more than shadow's their dreams will never come to pass Trapped by your web of ignorance Trapped by your web Your web of lies Too much pain Too much anguish already endured More fear than a person s...

If home is where the heart is, why do I feel so fucking heartless? The crumbling skyline cuts a vicious horizon, sinking its teeth into the cold September sky. Decaying towers of steel reach with crooked spires for the heavens, like bones of the hollow chest...

For every word misspelt For every knife that cuts you Every rose has its thorn To stab your heart For every word misspelt For every knife that cuts you Every rose has its thorn To stab your heart I watched as beauty fades away Drenched in tears she...

I - So it begins. Our eyes torn open. Free from the thorns of doubt. Free from our selfish confine. Our. Blood. Restless. Ceaseless. With open arms we stand, Before the dawn. II - The sun seems to have been rising, ever since I can recall. Lending a...

From crooked faith, the darkness flows From hallowed halls, through broken homes To prey upon the weakest lamb The cruellest heart is truly man And when the judgment came, they told us:"Turn away" As their laughter whipped the halls like cracking bones...

In an instant this world's hate engulfed all tenfold. Hate. I watched the birth of tomorrow's catch phrase. Terror. As the sky came crashing down. True terror now assumes a human form. Suspicious minds pointing fingers still ignore. Suspicious minds tear at in...

Now Your heroes have fallen. Championless, The seas are rising. So torch every banner, Every hope of surviving. This storm is breaking. Security has left you Treading water. Now taste the fear. Taste the uncertainty. What will you do when there'...

And through it all, we wore the pain We held our own Through the darkest of our nights It's written in my blood It's carved into my soul Through the darkest of our nights Because if you couldn't stop us then What hope do you have now When you dragged...

There was a time I felt invincible, In the cradle of youth I felt I owned the world, Until I held on so tight I felt it slipping away. Into the dark I stray, into the dark I stay, I chose a broken road until the life had left my soul. Into the dark I str...

After everything you've done. After your second face failed. This time theres nothing left to save. And your words were broken. With the touch of vipers you set your words upon my back. Spitting daggers you cant kill those already dead. Buried beneath a pile o...

Crashing to the surface. My convictions lay bare before the tempest. As chaos explodes around me, I find myself in the jaws of destruction. Tested, by the force of the tempest. Pushed, to the point of no return. Losing ground. Let the steel of my resolve...

But there is no silence. My thoughts drowned out. Screeching and grinding resonates through a hollow shell. There is no great wisdom. There are no answers. (x2) (I close my eyes, but all I see is red. I bite my tongue, but all I taste is blood. Once ag...

In a world of devoid of emancipation Like leaves too many question marks On my conscience, why? Why look up The ground is so much more pleasing And it's where these eyes belong I renounce, I renounce myself What I have become is not What I wish to be Break my...

There is nothing (There is nothing) I would not give These are the days of calm. (These are the days of calm) Please understand These are the days of calm. We don't forget. We don't forgive. 

Fuck the memories. We're dead at every turn. So spin your fucking shit and we'll die with every twist of tongue. Your hollow gaze has shifted past my eyes. Another dead face fades away. Now what's left to take? Another day I regret your memory. In my mind you...

Forever fucked We wage a war of suffering a deceit 100 thousand years of dreaming, drowned in a flood of fear and greed Precious heritage laid waste before the chainsaws snarling teeth Bleed the earth, bleed her 'til her heart no longer beats And still w...

The day lights gone The empty streets echo our past and the days that once were so beautiful Before now Before us So save yourself Cause all dreams are gone And all hope has faded And as the sunlight fails I watch this world slip away And we smiled as we betra...

If looks could kill. You would be a fucking shot gun. Against my head so fucking cold. Picture perfect and pathetic. I would so love to hang you. Cat got your tongue? Selling yourself short again? Your selling you're self short again. Bare your insecurities. I...

Freedom is slavery. War is peace. Ignorance is strength. Existence is suffering. (suffering) 

Brothers of abandonment, sisters of despair. Orphans to the watching ones above. Too far removed, too far to care. We are the unwanted. We are the one true threat. We raise our hands to this World's throat choke away its dying breath. This is the end of...

Do you see me? Do you see what I've become? I'm not the same beast, I leave a scar on all I touch You think you know me now, is it better than I know myself? I know it hurts like hell, admitting just how you've misjudged All my life I've been told the sam...

Consumed, I feel the rage growing inside me, a fear I cannot contain. At war with an enemy who does not rest, who will never relent. This city, these lifeless catacombs, our tombs they have become. Buried alive at birth, never to return. (to return) Chai...

Born of dust and stone Dead hearts, roaming a dying home Life leaves us all, white bones Upon the shores of time We are but sparks in a darkened world And yet some things were born to burn The napalm in your eyes Is all my cold heart needs If you brin...

I'd give the world for you to look my way. I'd give it all. Just to feel your love. Cast aside. Separate. Destroyed. Sweet laughter bleeds my ears. Your eyes tear at my throat trying to steal my tongue. Gaze of an angel melting my skin. A face so cold. Twice a...

I've walked these streets a thousand times, still this world never seemed colder. Compromised a thousand times, to the will of malicious minds. Reality never hit so fucking hard. Crushed by endless desperation, endless surrender. Retrace the steps, retra...

A system of complete control. The pressure builds It wraps its hands around your throat. A constant battle A silent war of mind and soul (Yeah, yeah, yeah!) Get up, get up One life, one shot, give it all you got (Yeah, yeah, yeah!) Get up, get up Keep...
