The Divide 01:56
lyrics
The Divide In a crowded place, I'm looking back Look through those eyes, that don't even hold a mark Look at these wings, couldn't hold flight Have them burned down while the morning lights rise And now I walk to face the end So let me breathe my own air One last time before the blade Restlessly comes settling in Let the wind blow let the rain fall Hear the executioner call Watch the traitors' head roll As the shadow takes his soul Is there anything left In this world worth saving Oh my values now lost They were the ones under the blade And the day they died Was the first day of my life
2.
Forgive and Forget 04:18
lyrics
I've decided to keep a journal, To have it all on record So when I no longer have a use in this world, I'll still have something good To leave behind, a god damned beginner's guide On how not to fuck up, With examples offered I feel a pain of conscience, enslaved to the substance I am to take on the blame, all the bruises and the shame I'll forget everything I wanted to say All the good that I thought I could convey No way to fix what's broken I've been raised for frailty and haze Yet things won't stay Forever safe anyway I keep repeating mistakes I can't remember the steps It's like a pattern for failing against the stakes A stained fantasy coming alive Makeshift paradise, we've sold our souls and fantasized Too late to bargain now All the breaks have weathered out Too many decisions that were not my own Too many opinions that I could not control Too many lessons that I didn't learn Too thousand reasons to just let it go All alone - Forgive and forget Without a home - Forgive and forget Abandoned and cold - I'm sober, but my soul is drunk All the faces that I once known Broken and torn I can't let Go I'm drowning in the waters of my own conscience Please someone wake me up Please give me peace of heart Don't let this sinking conscience Freeze me up

Heavy Eyes 03:29
lyrics
My eyes deny me the privilege Of getting some shut-eye Can't reason with this wreckage And I'm up all night No matter how much I try In the morning I can't hide My red eyes betraying I’m not alright So I keep like I always do All these things locked up inside me Don't tempt me I’m the worst bet you could have made I’ll take my turn and be the first to Walk out that door I’m trying hard to keep my self from going down that road Cause once I’m out There’s no going back Hey, no, don't throw Everything away We’ve come to far to let it all go Down the fucking drain The scent of alcohol is buried Deep inside these walls And nothing you could ever say Will wash it away Hey don't worry You won't hear much from me If you can't steer this ship to safety I'll keep outta your way There's not a presence, just your absence here Looming in the dark You know I've always had a weak voice To match my weary heart I always thought that I could speak out And come to bear my heart But there was no one I could reach out to No one to hear me out The one I tried so hard to reach Was nowhere to be found Just these empty eyes reflecting The emptiness around Despite your desperate reassuring That everything’s alright I saw this picture perfect coating Of a fruit that’s rotting out I was too petrified to do it So I just kept on giving up Instead of facing all my fears I’d let the days go by And as they passed, they took apart Almost all that I had Your broken will, my broken heart - have wasted half of my life And I'm afraid to realize I wasted all of my life

Scavengers 03:49
lyrics
Scavengers of the aftermath When the worst will pass we'll be the ones to last To remember, the first time, the last time That we spent hours dreaming, believing That something will come to save us from our wreckage The thought of losing everything Has often crossed my mind My demons in front of me Gotten out of hand But i don't have the patience To see everyone around Selling me their false intentions They don't know how Their side of brightness, is so FAR The shallowness behind its beauty - haunting Decisions made on good intentions But with no regards Repercussions (falling like a) House of cards We had everything. Now gone Beggers and thieves We go together like eachothers worst enemies The water will spill, it will come to wash awy without will No matter how hard we try, The nights will go by, and days will betray, But feelings won't fade won't shed and won't die, Let reasons unfold, I've told you, we're Beggars and thieves We go together like each-others' worst enemies The water will spill - it will come to wash awy without will So dry your eyes, The taste of happiness, Is just a glimpse of things to come We've seen the weather change Witnessed the clouds turn grey We've cured the cancer, Set other monsters free I'll leave no uncertainty regarding who will set you free You can rest assured, it will be it will be me Beggars and thieves We go together like each-others' worst enemies The water will spill - it will come to wash awy without will

Shutter 04:29
lyrics
At the edge of space lies a ship, It's unmanned, floating idly away for quite some time Its crew has been long dead In a weightless atmosphere Where the sun never shines Only the smoke condenses fear Clear above the ruins of the men that were here And at the side of that ship stands written Friendship, love, and commitment This is the captain With one last log... I killed everyone Despite everything The emptiness settled in No wrong or right - no end in sight Exasperation grew So I refuse to count my blessings Aa I refuse to live the long and prosperous life Cause when I climbed aboard I knew I won't regret the time I have dreams that crawl their way deep under my skin Echoes that last too long inside the back of my head This is a not cry for help This the scream of a dying man, The last one alive, Sane enough to realize The uselessness of everything I see just how lost I am So with a dying breath I leave a legacy behind For no one to find There isn't anything out here, nothing above or below Just vanity and mad men... never accepted their own And all our theories have taught us, surrender thought over blood It's all just politics and the fall of us is the loss of love Wither in doubt we're all running out We went again to far With or without an answer we're all Rounding towards the fall We left the silk beneath these streaks To be the secret the silence keeps But if we're so afraid of the dark How come we're here, falling apart Before our bodies will wither Before we turn into dust We'll take the few missing pieces Leave nothing untouched Cause all incentives on reason Are vacancies between seats Our tombs are made out of questions Nobody cares what they read
