Killer Be Killed

ate
Malevolent minds breeds this infection
Decimate until nothing remains

Now you’re feeling like you wanna give it up
Now you’re looking for a better life
You try to take the ups and downs
Give in to the ride

Find a way you’ll never get a second chance
Fuck ‘em all and only follow your own plans
To get to your own end
Live as if you might never die

High standing on the doorway
Burnout suffering
All chasing wisdom
Bleed, flowing ever free

Oh I thought I was clear that we would never coincide
You chose to gamble but I’m free to choose my side

Spiritual belief, an obsession
To desecrate your body, mind and soul
The punishment of your transgressions
Living in the age of the cutthroat

Now you’re feeling like you want to give it up
Now you’re looking for a better life
You try to take the ups and downs
Give into the ride

Find the way you never get a second chance
Fuck ‘em all and only follow your own plans
To get to your own end
Live as if you might never die

Bending contortion
Taking shape
Hollow and writhing
Lay the blame
Deep inside I feel
Constant chill
Rip apart your insides
Stretching skin

Make me remember that I’m alive
Make me remember
Make me feel like this life ain’t the only one
See you across the river
When our time is through
’Til then give in to the ride
As if we’ll never die

Never die
Here’s my sign
Live as if you might
Born into the fight
Never die
Here’s my sign
Give in to the ride
Fire is on my side
I’ll never die

2. Dream Gone Bad

We carry on with tradition
With clouded thoughts in the mirror
Another hidden misdirection
Until the worn reflection becomes clear

Never too late
Time to turn it all around
Never too late
And you'll never walk alone

Feverish complications
The solution was so simple
An effigy of unimportance
Laboring under delusional hands

Never too late
Time to turn it all around
Never too late
And you'll never walk alone

My reflection in front of me
Staring into my hardened soul
I am my worst enemy
Life is killing me

Hear the calling
When earth and sky will fold

Feel the walls close in
I can't escape destiny
Don't sell your soul
Born with a heart of stone

Hear the calling
When earth and sky will fold
And remember
When I am turning cold

You're fighting to bleed an emotion
Through the efforts I spare nothing now

Never too late
Time to turn it all around
Never too late
And you'll never walk alone
Never walk alone

You always know where you are
Into yourself
Into forever
Walk into the light

3. Left of Center

I question why you're always difficult
You're most inherently insane
Spinning the wheels of your frustration
When the consequence is all the same

Left of center
You the other side
Unified in our divide
Differences intensified

Another reasonable warning
Too busy shifting all of the blame
Who am I to judge your possession
Enable all, forfeit the game

Left of center
You the othеr side
Unified in our divide
Diffеrences intensified

I hear sound from the fallen
Relive the song and celebrate
Force-fed another line of reasons
Always and only about you

Left of center
You the other side
Unified in our divide
Differences intensified

Spinning your frustration
Busy shifting blame
Why you're always lying
Drown in self-denial
Maybe the end gives all the answers to the why
Pieces of your life solidify
Crawl

Crawl to walk
Walk to run
Run to fly
Gives you all the reasons
Gives you all the answers
To the why

4. Inner Calm from Outer Storms

Are you made from the moonlight
To return to the sea
Stay awake for your whole life
Only curse is to sleep

Wired into the night sky
Course is fine to lead the way

Are you filled with the divine
That was locked in the street
Did you take a chance with your whole life
Do you only love to be free

Sun has shone
Shone exertion
Dissipate from the constant pass
Poles sway all the energies
Distant race without a path

Enthroned
The realm above
Collision of the universe
Cosmic lunacy
I’ll take your soul/collect my fee
Trash hole from beyond
Every fear will burn
Beneath the burning sky
Embrace me one last time

Ashes of unholy serpent
A man again now I must be

Defiant warlord
Unleash your hate upon us
Cryptic vortex
Extinction rises and you’re next

From beyond this mortal body
Inner calm from outer storms

Come in with a purpose
I could never sound the alarm
I would never run first
Look at what a coward you are

Pariah/messiah…mercenary
Death threat emissary
Tyrant/usurper
Judge…jury…executioner

All this fire for your war
So now I’ll stay here killing
Not for anyone else
I only live for myself
Nobody else
I know you know how it felt

Blackhole existence
Defy the system
Out of a body experience...now!

5. Filthy Vagabond

I wanna go to every place
And never slow down
I might not come back alive
Forever is the fire in me
A lightning bolt in the ground
I'm gonna be

Living free
Onward and upward
You know me
Don't tell me
What you think of
Who I should be

City lights when passing by
My home is the road
Sound check hotels/backstage hell
I'm going for broke
Getting hammered, playing loud
What life is all about
Dirty clothes, shitty food
Hell... I'm in the mood

Living free
Onward and upward
You know me
Don't tell me
What you think of
Who I should be

There's no life in between
The journey calls to me
Where every day is new
So I'll stay on the move

There's nothing here to lose
So I'll stay on the move
There's no life in between
The journey calls to me
Chasing horizons
Blue sky in front of me
That's the way it ought to be
No more conforming
Freedom not lost on me
Knowing your enemy

Living free
Onward and upward
You know me
Don't tell me
What you think of
Who I should be

There's no life in between
The journey calls to me
Where everything is new
So I'll stay on the move

6. From a Crowded Wound

Travel alone and not coming home
Back to nowhere
Trying to die and not far to go
Never come here

You try to feel like a god
Inside your place
That nobody reaches

Carry along you’re fine without me
You should know this
Bury the lie that you still believe
Never mind me

The dream of your life is not meant to know
It gets so cold like falling snow
The blink of an eye
The feeling of trapped and fallen souls

The source of your pain’s not from below
We climb so high but we’re still low
You look ’til you find
Your chosen design
And then you’ll know
There’s nowhere to go

Calling
Nobody left but I keep calling to be saved
I hear the truth but it won’t stop putting me to sleep

Fearing
There’s nothing left but I keep fearing for the end
I’m on my own but I can’t stop bleeding
From a crowded wound

I’m convinced all the roads lead back to you
I’m convinced all the roads lead back to you

Leave your mark on the land
Driven from your blood
Loving cancer I ripped you from me

In the dead of the night I am left to be
Final form that I am becoming
In the dead of the night I am left to be
Final form that I am becoming

7. The Great Purge

A face like your own
Through a cloud and you can't see
Uncovered stones
Form the words that make me

Clear the land of all believers
And avoid the mastermind
And then I hear you
Inside then nightfall
Your well-known skin
Is warm and by my side

A face like your own
Through a cloud and you can't see
Uncovered stones
Form the words that make me

Wipe the creature from the face of earth
Rid the demon off his feet
End the reign of his existence
Bury the man
Bury his dream
Bow down
Bow down
Bones of saints are found
Behold
Behold

Beware of men that are too proud
Ashes to ashes
Crosses to graves
Holy burial ground
Drown... drown
Where are they now?
Where are they now?
Descend to darkness
Descend to madness

8. Comfort from Nothing

Caught in a landslide
Losing belief
Give in your power
Trust in the machine

Storm
Running the deep
Bury the root
Sprouting the beast
Cold
Crushing it down
Given the space
Drip is the feed

Hearing the voices I expected they'd come for me
Given the choice I thought that they'd comfort me
But they don't

Keep falling backward
Land on your feet
Still running faster
Refusing defeat

Crawl
Blood on your knees
Follow a dream
Affinity
Dig
Rising above
Over the peak
High is achieved

Hearing the voices I expected they'd come for me
Given the choice I thought that they'd comfort me
But they don't

Give me all you've got
Wipe the dirt off my face
Give me all you've got
Or become a disgrace
Give me all you've got

Paranoia
Selfish need to mutilate
Schizophrenic
Chaos syndrome in disgrace
Lay your trust into my bloody hands
I know that you'll understand
Hostile
Proliferation of the sick
Devour
Annihilation of the meek
Pay for me to beat you to the ground
Bury you above it now

9. Animus

Barbarian infestation
War is their religion
Kill the only answer
Hate can only end with death

Barbaric bastards
Breeding Huns

You're severed head is a trophy
Your body fed to pigs
Hate the only answer
Pain can only end with death

Nomadic bastards
Animus

You'll be decoration for me
A blinding barrage that you can't see
This is how we kill
This is how the devils kill

10. Dead Limbs

No one can see
Blinders up uncertainty
Oceans alive
Ride the wave or you sink
Lack of connect
Throwing shade unto me
Lost all connection
Our wheels keep turning

Always remind you thoughts of yesterday
And we chase the ghost away
They haunt you
Haunt you everyday

Bridging our fate to exist and repeat
We recognize our decline apathy
Echo distortion the sound I receive
No more direction
Our wheels keep turning

Always remind you thoughts of yesterday
And we chase the ghost away
Thеy haunt you
Haunt you everyday

You're facing thе wild on your own
The weeds and the thorns overgrown
Attempted to push it away
You'll choke when you swallow the day
You're facing the wild on your own
All of the days you had now gone

They never came back
The flame was out too long
Furious soundwaves

Blasphemy
Catastrophe
Travesty
Insanity
Our wheels keep turning

Always remind you thoughts of yesterday
And we chase the ghost away
They haunt you
Haunt you everyday

11. Reluctant Hero

You've returned to me as a shadow
You've come back
To fill the empty canyon of my loss
This is not real
I refuse to feel you're in a better place
And now I know
The pain of never reaching for your face
We tear in two
I would welcome you back in my dreams
Take me
Where the pain will pass and beauty remains
Until then
I touched your hand for remembrance
Hoping we can
Turn the darkest mourning into thanks
We tear in two
I bеg the road to rise and meet you
May the wind bе at your back
And the sunshine warm on your face my friend
Until we meet again
