Killing Floor

Burnt out, left for dead
I needed this like a hole in my head
And I’m bleeding
Remember what you said
Our crossed paths never lead to the end
You’re making promises, that you know you’ll never keep
Why I’m always inching closer to the crypt that you will keep
You simply turned and went your way
But that was your choice that you made
Now or never, now or never
The time has come now don’t delay
So pull the trigger and make my day
For all we know
It left me numb my body outnumbered of control
And I’m left with the task to pick up the pieces
What's this life worth living for?
This is the killing floor
That consists of myself all alone
I don't know if this heart is still worth saving
Now am I an embarrassment
A lost cause to my family and friends
Am I worthless, maybe better off dead
You think I never heard a fucking thing you said
You’re making promises, that you know that I will keep
That’s why I’m always inching closer to the crypt that you will see
I drag my feet oh how they bleed
it makes me sick the way you bite the hand that feeds
Now or never, now or never
These games, these lies are killing me
Forever living in this hell is where I’ll be
Worthless, am I?

Pass The Torch

Kill me off the day I’m born
The morning comes before the warrant
True love is our substitution
On dead wings I’ll rise again
Amidst a sound so deafening
I think of all our lost institutions
We said that’s no excuse for what you said
Nor what you've done
Now it feels like we’re free falling
To ward off these tortured souls
We pass the torch
And it goes on and on and on
Build it up before it burns
On these days my stomach turns
I think of all our lost institutions
Don’t count on me to break my stride
It’s everlasting for all time
Now it seems we’ve found a solution

Your Lucky Stars

I wanna bring you down
Not for who you are, for what you’re doing now
On the tight rope walking thin
Rope snaps, turn your back, how can you win?
A lost soul you are
Can never count on you, so count my lucky stars
Playing to win, you’ll lose again
Can’t stop me from chasing my freedom
It’s your turn to burn
So abort your disposition
You can buy your freedom
Don’t tell me everything won’t have a reason
Your lucky stars, count your lucky stars
Don’t face those gallows, get up you’re still breathing
Your lucky stars, count your lucky stars
You can’t stop me from chasing my freedom
All hope is lost
How bout you look at yourself and tell me what’s the cause
Living it over like you do
You can’t stop me from this feeling
You’ll wait your turn
How could you live with yourself when the tables turned
Playing to win you’ll lose again
You can’t stop me from chasing my freedom
It’s your turn to go
So abort your disposition
You can buy your freedom

I am the one, edge of disaster
I’m underground as I try to resolve
The words you said meant everything
Wouldn’t change a fucking thing
Leave me here, I’m one the edge and I’m taking
It all to heart if you know what I mean
You’ll fucking pay for all your greed
We’re a part of this machine
Hope
Have we ever seemed so low
I could never be so humble, I will never be so far from
(We will never give it all away)
Home
How can we ever repay them
With my last dying breath I can see so far
I’m losing myself I can’t stop the enclosing
Walls from crushing what I’ve worked hard for
It could have been you, it could have been me
I’m not really sure I couldn’t foresee
I’m not alone, I’m not the only one laughing
I’ve become what I know you don’t need
We all live in discontent
Forever killing fellow man
We don’t lose all hope
With hope in our time
We’ll set examples for what we think is right
And never waiver the course that we ride
It’s time to savoir every human life
Let’s stick to it
So far from hope

Forever living immortal god
Heir to the throne
It’ll take them an army of sheep to survive
Still you bait the hook and sold our souls
For one mans conquest his hopes and dreams
So cynical
Give us a reason to follow a plan
That feeds the rich and eats the poor
We’re living in a fishbowl of big brother and corporate greed
We got to stand against their ideologies
The only way we move forward
is when we help the ones in need
A silent pledge, a vagabond
There’ll be no peace
Underpaid and you’re over worked
You’re dead to the bone
Fearing your god like a good little pawn
Now fall in line and serve the powerful
For one mans conquest his hopes and dreams
Greeds, needs, ideologies
Your dreams of becoming the one percent
Are paved in blood and draped gold

Pull back the blinds
So the morning stars may resurrect your mind
Go on now save yourself
Fear what you’ve been feeling
Round up the troops
The last song is sung for the immortal few
Into the breach we march
No fear of death nor doom
Sharpen the blade, polish the steel
Come back with your head or upon your shield
On battle grounds meet your demise
Say your prayers
Today's a good day to die
We bled the truth
A small price to pay for the unfortunate few
We bare the scars
For all those long lost abandoned
Who said there was never enough
Blood stains the boots
With a gun and a badge and the means to put it all on you
They are the many and
We’re the disordinate few
The perfect crime
Reliving the days when they said we’d have it all in time
Promises left in the shade
Haunts for the rest of our days

Save Your Breath
03:24

Please save your breath
That's the last time I'm wearing my heart upon my sleeve
I don't know but the way things are going I'll pull the trigger to watch it burn
Dream, close your eyes
In a moment or less she's like the devil by my side
Forcing me, to believe what she's says is the truth
It's not what it seems, in my mind
It seems the whole world's against me
The pain will subside in time
Whoa is me, please don't spin me in circles
Don't say what you really don't mean
I tried so hard to figure it out
Look it all that you have left for me
These city streets seem to surround you
(You want to take it away, won't you take it away)
What if I told you the world was gonna burn we'll fry tonight
(You know that I don't mind)
You, ought to know
That I've battled my demons and want to change the status quo
You and I, are growing further apart by the minute
It's just a waste of time
My friend, I don't owe you a damn thing
From the grave or till the end
Of my life, I've been holding this moment
For what was wrong or what was right
I tried so hard to settle the score
Look at all that you have left for me
These city streets seem to surround you
(You want to take it away, won't you take it away)
What if I told you the world was gonna burn we'll fry tonight
(You know that I don't mind)
Well I know the dreams seem to go, fall to pieces
(You want to take it away, won't you take it away)
Just give me your word you'll know, whats wrong or right
(You know that I don't mind)

As Time Goes By

As time goes by, take a look at me man
I've got my insecurities, my friend
That's the life I choose to live
As time goes by, every single second seems
Like a waste of time for you and me
This is a call out for the revival
How could you choose them over me
We're only here for a short time not forever
It's high time that you stand to make the change
Waiting, for you, to fight back
I can't live without
A yearning, a reason
To blow this all to hell
Amongst these things the world just falls to pieces
Decision came so fast now I am speechless
As time goes by, I remember the days
When it seemed like death was a lifetime away
But that's the life we're forced to live
As time goes by we can look back and say
That the path shaped us to effect some sort of change
After all you can't live forever
You gotta take it day by day
For every bad tie that you severed
Deep in your heart they're all the same
