What We've Become

As we put
All our hope into
A broken system
We set us all up to fail
Built a country on morals and laws
Only to fall victim to bribery and crime
At our weakest moments we turned to tyrants for protection
Only to become the body bags that protect their investments
How could we let things get so out of hand?
We are to blame
They planted the fear in us
Stand one!
Stand tall!
We are prisoners of our own existence
Afraid to make the change
Stand with me, escape this jail they call the "land of the free",
Lets give them something to fear!
You will fear us!
Give them something to fear (x4)
Following the path they have created for us
We will all soon be but memories
Buried beneath
The rubble of our old luxuries
We suffered
Too long for the "dream"
Stand one!
Stand tall!

The Disgrace Of Man
05:20

I'll lift the shadows off the hell you breed
And all the lives you take
For the final time you hold me captive
Inside these walls
Breathing dust and ashes that remain,
This is for the sane
The sun is setting on a wasted day
Pathetic machines told to obey
You are nothing now!
Don't tell me who I am,
You are the disgrace of man!
I am not your slave today
Bring on the torture
You couldn't break me if I was made of glass!
We are stronger
For never giving in and never giving up
Follow the weak, and this is where you die
Where you die!
This should not exsist
Eternal misery (x2)
Some days just feel worse
To be everything that you hate
It is such a waste of life
Doing what I feel is not right
For me to pretend that I'm proud of this way of life
Take me away from this hell we live in
Breathing dust and ashes that remain
Inside these walls
I will take the shackles off my wrist
And tear downs these fucking walls
This is me being set free!
(We are stronger, for never giving up and never giving in)

A Trail Of Thorns

You stood right next to me
Through the good, the bad and all that could be
True friends come with inspiration
You took my hand, followed me to the end
When tripped along the words of resentment,
When my crippling past comes back to haunt,
You carried my broken body
And healed my wounds,
Wounds of regret
Keep going on,
You must not give up!
(Those words stuck to me)
I will go on,
I will not give up!
This is me,
Overcoming you
Dear friends and family
Give me life,
Give me light,
To carry on
And not look back
(And not look back)
Words of inspiration
Came swiftly through your heart
Finding its way
To mine
Now a fire burns
Burns deep within my chest
Fueling my determination
To Complete my quest
Walk with me!
With goals set in mind
Help me walk another step
Count the few to call my friends
Walk with me to the end
You stood right next to me
Through the good, the bad and all that could be
True family comes with determination
With a tight grip,
We march on!
Feeling the warmth on your hands!
Gives me hope to walk again,
This is where we make our stand!
Hearts of regret will be cleansed,
We march on!

We are the children of the stars!
Born in the fire of a dying sun
Our hearts beat to the glisten of the stars
A connection through time
We were once them
They've become us
We've been thanking the wrong things for the chance we've been given
Been given
This is here and now
Let us savor it before our time runs out
Before our time runs out
What would you do
If you lost everything?
Does your life mean anything to you?
It's inevitable
The world will end one day,
some day soon
A balance must be put in place
Losing sight of the simple things
We clouded our minds with hate
Don't take this gift for granted
We must unite and live side by side
This is our only chance to get it right
Get it right
We've been thanking the wrong things for the chance we've been given
This is here and now
Let us savor it before our time runs out
It would be a shame if we
Would amount to nothing (we are the children of the stars)
Even when their deaths gave us everything (we are the children of the stars)

20th At Midnight

We act as if the world owes us something!
What once was a blessing
Has now turned to a curse
Oh mother, how we have plagued you!
Once we were few
But now we spread as hell fire
Pressing a knife to your skin!
Carving our own selfish names in,
Exhausting you to the point of no return!
This is all we had left!
An infection way out of control
We spread it through the years
Constructing machines that make you gasp for clean air!
Retaliation, is at hand
No longer, will she stand
Do you think you have a right to be alive?
Her finger on the trigger,
Your life will not linger,
To erase the trace of man
With a smile on her face she knows we're all as good as dead!
Oh mother, forgive us!
We do not know what we do!
We've been blind
Since the dawn of our existence
Pressing a knife to her skin
Carving our own selfish names in
Exhausting you to the point of no return
We must suffer, to truely understand what we have lost
An infection way out of control
We spread it through the years,
Constructing machines that make you gasp for clean air!

The Last Of Us
05:11

What once was a village full of life
Has now become the birth place of our demise
In the summer of 1665
Was the start for us to fight for life
Starting with the tailor
We all fell one by one
All fell from a dark man's plans
Only to live such a short life
(Such a short life)
How could such a small thing topple so many lives?
In isolation we kept to ourselves
Only asking for bread and water
So that we may die with our stomachs filled
One by one my family fell
The sickness I feel has come for me as well
What once was a village full of life
Has now become the birth place of our demise
With dirt under my nails
From graves I dug up for ourselves
Seeing the dirt covering your face
No more of this hell you have to endure
Hearing the banging of death on my door
I did my best to just ignore
Soon I will die
Send your chills up my spine
(I am next),
One by one
(I am next),
One by one
The lingering stench of death has me convinced
The chills on my spine persuade me
Seeing the ghost of my loved ones
Soon I will haunt with them
Soon I will haunt with them
Everything ends here,
With me in a grave,
As another victim of Eyam

Where Wings Used To Be
07:57

Why Was I the one that was left behind?
To Take the world on
Strapped to my shoulders
As my knees buckle I kneel vulnerable
You looked into my eyes
And saw yourself take flight
It's hard to think that your betrayal felt so warm to my heart
To my heart
The Flames of hate I was forced to ignite
Engulf me!
Burnt to the core, my heart still beats pure
Flowed my veins with ideas in store
So fly away
I will find you and rip the wings from flesh
Put you in the pain you made me endure
Changing my world
Seeing behind all the lies
Deceiving us, you made us all die
Rip you from the pages of history
The future will be rid of you
No one will know
No one will care
A god once praised
Now just a lifeless body
With scars
Where his wings used to be
Engulf me!
Burnt to the core, my heart still beats pure
Flowed my veins with ideas in store
Banish you
Watch your symbol as it fades through time
No more, do I have to purchase hope
No more, do I have to repent
Rational thinking has turned me into a man
I thought I could never be
Absence of your faith
Has made me a better man
Able to understand, comprehend
All the bullshit behind your master plan
Bleed out, bleed out through your scars
Let the blood hit the floor (x2)
So everyone can see what a liar you are
