I won’t forget your face
When the time comes
Ticking time bomb knows
You’re the one
You can’t escape all the ways that I've come to be
Innocence is gone it’s unrelenting
I feel the hate that’s inside is building it consumes me
And now the world's about to see me blow
Undying standing here I will remain and face the fear
Of being pushed down of being locked out
What goes around is coming to take you out
Preying off our innocence
This blood is on your hands
And what goes around now comes around
And when you see my face you will know
This is my revenge
Descending towards your ending
The opposition is fueling me
And from the pain I remain for all to see
I feel the hate that’s building
Deciding how you fail
Preying off our innocence
This blood is on your hands
Now it comes around now it comes around
Awww Switch
And what goes around now comes around
What goes around is now coming around

Sometimes Dead Is Better

Closed in bearing witness
An unspeakable hive that’s churning
Loathing so awake to see
Unexpected thoughts aren’t a dream
They keep coming back
And twist all around
With a noose taut tight
Buried in sin diseased within
Defiant fighting that goes on bringing blisters arise
I’ll see you on the other fucking side
Lie awake and feel the rage that’s breaking your soul
Unconscious cries alone
Unchained contained unchained no escape remains
For the ending desperately a cage despised
Only hear the clock by the second
The sun doesn’t rise
There’s no forgiveness a wasted life
What a shock to the scene terrified
Like a dream I’ll see you on the other side
I’ll see you I’ll see you I’ll see you I’ll see you

Our Place In Time
01:55
|
|||
I wanna live in a life that minds are all open
So simple are our stories built upon truth
It shouldn’t matter where your roots had been planted
It only matters what you say and you do
I try to find the good inside but I’m left searching and waiting what do you choose
Some say color can be so divisive
I find the problem is inside of you
My friends extend my family In you I find truth
We’re told our weakness is divided by difference
We’re told our weakness is love that’s not true
We’re told forgiveness is never the answer
We’re judged and told the next life we lose
My friends extend my family In you I find truth
We must be brave and in the face of resistance
Knowing that we can always survive
Labels labels they try to divide us
Their unable to open their minds
I won’t deny my difference
And I won’t ever apologize
I’ll love who I want to love It’s my life to decide

Revolution Rising

Revolution rising
Forced down a suffering nation
For revenge of dying this time the bend is about to
Break into violence
A cold sweat comes dripping down your hand
No peace in the silence
Coming war pits brothers vs men
They’ll be coming to reign
They’ll be choosing their sides
Waving flags in the name of fiction
Holding tight for the homicide
Killing fields seem to fit
Nobody's listening nobody listening
To the sound of the coming revolution
Revolution yeah what's the price
Revolution yeah what's the price
We're outta time we're outta time we're outta time
When sides are being chosen
We're outta time we're outta time we're outta time
When sides are being chosen now
Wake up wake up wake up is it fact of fiction
Wake up wake up wake up cause the tide is rising
We won't be restrained we won't be contained
This coming revolution this coming revolution
Revolution revolution revolution but yeah what's the price
Revolution revolution revolution but yeah what's the price
Revolution Revolution Revolution
Revolution Revolution Revolution
Yeah what's the price

No More Ashes
01:24

Exposed for my weakness a bleeding open heart
The roads I have traveled have let me down
The pain I have conquered the things I've endured
Scars that I wear like a fucking crown
It's like me and you we should help each other through
But in this world we will face our fears alone
When tomorrow comes we'll watch the others run
We'll watch you run you fucking pigs
Life in reset another challenge met
Now's the time you're gonna watch me rise
Strength Defiance I will not retreat
Strength Defiance I will not let this hold me back
This world is mine
There's no retreat
You mother fuckers

Signals

Skies burning brace for the impact
Waiting for a sign
They’re coming to replace us
When it’s done the insects thrive
It’s noxious destructive
Infections burn within
Debilitating cries from the empath
Paying for our sins
Dystopia arrives as ashes start to grow
Groening from the future he knows
Winds are blowing nightmares coming will we ever get to fight
Signals all around creation precision cuts no blood in sight
Circles on the ground must mean we’re coming to an end
Extinction cries extinction begin
Skies burning brace for the impact
Signals for a fight
They’re coming to replace us
When it’s done the insects will thrive
Dystopia arrives as ashes start to grow
Groening from the future he knows
Winds are blowing nightmares coming will we ever get to fight
Signals all around creation precision cuts no blood in sight
Circles on the ground must mean we’re coming to an end
Extinction cries extinction begin
Skies burning brace for the impact
Signals for a fight
They’re coming to replace us
When it’s done the insects will thrive
The sky is burning

Pass The Torch

We we have not lost
We have not lost It burns inside
So embrace all you can
Embrace what’s yours and mine
Embrace and never let it go
I come from another place a forgotten time
We used to preach that our open minds
Would never fail and never bend and never quit until the end
Conceding’s not in our sight
Extending hand build a scene so tight
I long to see tomorrow and I want you here with me
We’re standing side by side
No one can take this away
I’ll bring you up kid like they did in my past
I wanna show you that forever can last
If your heart is true nothing they can do
That will tear you down i’ll build you up
I will step to the side I will step to the side
Cause I want you standing with me
I want you standing right here
I come from another place a forgotten time
But I’m still preaching that our open minds
Can never fail and never bend and never quit until the end
Conceding’s not in our sight
Extending hand build a scene so tight
I long to see tomorrow
And I want you here with me
We’re standing side by side
No one can take this away
Let’s start today side by side
It’s spanning our generations
We’re standing side by side
It’s spanning our generations
We’re standing side by side

Killing Floor
02:29
|

From where I’m standing the truth is hidden in plain sight
It’s become a part of me
Age of pain the walls have started crumbling
Insincerity denying those without a voice
You’re just a coward who’s deciding how we make a choice
This fucking industry is built on slavery
This fucking industry is built on slavery
This fucking industry is built on slavery
This fucking industry is built on slavery
Change your fucking mind let the rest be complacent
Open eyes are the death of pain
Screaming loud be voices for voiceless
Coming down without restraint
Speaking out has become such a fucking bore
Actions change from ways they see nothing more
Than wasted worthless lives
But with exception
Tear the system down with no discretion
Be the voice for the voiceless innocent fighting back tear the system down
We’re watching and waiting no longer advocating
It’s time to make a change
No longer backing down
You can’t avoid it because your products death
You will accept the blame or you’ll lie with the rest
Your fucking industry your fucking industry
Your fucking industry your fucking industry
Slavery Slavery Slavery

Plague
02:56
|

Who trades their life for salvation
Who trades their life unless they’re lost inside
The weakness is but a distraction
So weakened and so blind
Salvation comes from suffering
Makes no fucking sense it’s worth nothing
Falling weak falling blind falling for the cause
Falling out till your world is all fucking gone
Spreading like disease begging for the cure
Spreading like disease god hates us
The gods all hate us they erase us
Like a plague fills your mind you better wake up
Seeking looking for divine retribution
Arrogance failing sense is the only solution right
GO
Spreading like disease begging for the cure
Spreading like disease god hates us
Who trades their life for salvation
Who trades their life unless they’re lost inside
The weakness is but a distraction
So weakened and so blind
Salvation for your sins salvation worth nothing
Salvation for your sins salvation worth nothing
All our questions arise in the face of your convictions
All our questions arise because it’s truth that we all seek
All our questions will arise
Find salvation for your sins
Find salvation for your sins

Ghost
03:10

We are the victims with eyes so lost
Keep retreating back to an empty call
With fear concede we’re falling
Stepping back to assess the scene
Always sinking down to the further between
Reflections here are haunting
Bring on acceptance before we die
The mirror never lies it shows us what others see
An unaccepted being
These eyes are staring black
Our hearts say turn away
These eyes are staring black
Our own acceptance of fate
Inside is a fighting war
Inside is a fighting war
Rejection unfolding denying revolting
Accept your fate accept your pain
And still the reflection seems alright
While wasting down from the inside
Deflecting glances are obscene
And all your secrets feel complete
Don’t Turn Away

Traitor
02:53
|

For too long we’ve been held down and pushed aside
Civil disobedience is now the answer let’s take the power back
I won’t be kept silent
I won’t be complacent
I won't be cast aside
I won’t be your fucking pawn
Persistence destroy the system so fuck your authority
Persistence builds our resistance
We’re gonna watch the whole place burn
You’re the one we mean traitor
You won’t close our eyes
When the walls come down we’ve got you in our sights
I won’t be I won’t be I won’t be in the shadows
I can’t be we can’t be nothing changes while remaining the same
We’re left fighting and trying
No respect to the ones that left dying
This traitor is hateful
Civil fucking disobedience
All the lies and deception
While the constitution burns to ash in front of you we must unite
You’re the one we mean traitor
You won’t close our eyes
When the walls come down we have got you
We’ve got you we’ve got you we’ve got you in our sights
It’s time for our revenge
It’s time for our revenge you fucker

Keep Trying
03:35
|

keep retreating to dark when the other feelings start
And the night is becoming your safety
All the pain remains unchanged
Just starting to start again
While the visions begin and the prisons your skin
They wanna know if you’re alright
There’s nothing anyone can do
And nothing feels right
Keep Trying
Something has to change so I can face another day
Keep Trying
Condemned is how i feel in a life that feels unreal
The Innocence feels right
And your declaration means you will change inside
till the waves start crashing you’ll change
Right back to where you have to start again
I’ll start again
It comes in waves prepare yourself to
Keep Trying
Something has to change so I can face another day
Keep Trying
How much can I take and how long until I break
Beyond the dark overwhelming pain inside of me
Beyond the dark condemned is how I feel
So when the lights becoming too dark and nothing takes the pain away
The understanding thoughts have no recourse
Nothing to explain
We wish to heal tonight and we wish to feel alright
But the prison lies deep within this skin afraid to listen
Keep Trying
Condemned is how i feel in a life that feels unreal
