1.The Illusion Of Power
What is it that turns you on to the illusion of power?
This thing that grabs you by the heart and makes you wanna tear
things down.
There is no reason why I should need all this power
But if you cross me now, I'm gonna tear your whole world down
Illusion of power
Things that I feel seem so real
Illusion of power
I can't get the emotional things straight in my head
Everything I love dies too soon or is already dead
Don't stand too close I spit and breathe fire
Anything I've got now you can not desire
You wanna be my friend I promise you nothing
Nothing I can give you, nothing I can do for you
I'm being chased by the sins of my past and it's killing me now,
Killing me now
Illusion of power
Things that I feel seem so real
Illusion of power
Illusion of power, it's already set, signed, and sealed
Illusion of power
Powerful! Who are you foolin?
You're caught in a complex catacomb of your own inadequacies
(Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha)
and pitiful weaknesses.
Your soul secretes insecurity (ha ha ha ha)
so you live on the reflection side of the mirror;
you're terrified of true power.
YOU FEAR ME!
I can tell you stories of my
Shaded past and I can
Drag you down into the
Depths of my soul
Illusion of power
Things that I feel seem so real
Illusion of power
Illusion of power, it's already set, signed, and sealed
Illusion of power
Why don't you come closer? (Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha)
Promise a story I will tell, yeah,
I'll save you from your dreams yeah, (Ha ha ha (yeah) ha ha ha

Save you from your dreams. (Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha)
YOU FEAR ME!
It's illusion just an illusion
Illusion just an illusion
2.Get A Grip
I see it on the TV, it's playing on my mind.
Everything I see has got something to do with killing my
brother.
Just another mind game, or maybe it's a sign?
When the child with a gun holds it up to the head of his
brother.
That ain't nice, gotta get a grip, gotta get a hold on life.
Gotta get a grip cause you're gonna slip, yeah.
Somebody tell me, where did we lose?
Where's the point that we lost the control to live with each
other?
Mister politician, searching for a lie.
What's the truth, will the youth find the proof for a
revolution?
Cause that ain't nice, gotta get a grip, gotta get a hold on
life.
Gotta get a grip cause you're gonna slip, on ice.
Gotta get a grip, gotta get a hold on life.
Gotta get a grip cause you're gonna slip.
Gotta get a hold of the situation, gotta get you into my life.
Gotta get a hold, get it moving.

3.Can't Get Close Enough To You
How many tears must we cry before learning
Things that we have, they're for real and we're losing.
Can't get close enough to you cause you're just too far away.
Why do you believe that we've got something coming?
You took it all, left me standing here with nothing
Can't get close enough to you cause you're just too far away,
Too far away, too far away.
In your world you must be dreaming if you think you can survive.
Taking all and giving nothing, that's a crime.
What makes you something special?
What about me? I'm here too.
You don't care what I'm feeling and that's the truth.
Can't get close enough to you cause you're just too far away.
All I need is understanding and the right to survive
Only you could see the warnings and pass me by.
What makes you something special?
What about me? Well I'm here too.
You don't care what I'm feeling and that's the truth.
Can't get close enough to you cause you're just too far away.
Too far away.
Can't get close enough to you cause you're just too far away.

4.Shaking Off The Chains
Is life everything you want it to be?
Does it give you everything that you need?
Does it live up to your expectations?
Are you ready for the celebrations?
This is not for the weak of mind (weak of mind)
Are you sure that you're my kind? (my kind?)
Do you wanna be part of me? (be part of me?)
Are you sure that you can really see?

Tapping on the window, the window of your soul.
I'm shaking off the chains
I'm tired of all the pain
I'm shaking off the chains
Let me live again
Shaking off the chains
Shaking off the chains
5.I Won't Cry For You
So ya lie awake and think about tomorrow
And ya try to justify the things you've done
But there's noone here to hear your tears fallin'
When ya turn around ya find out that you're the lonely one
And it feels like someone's treadin' on your shadow
And you always thought that heaven knows for sure
And it feels like you're drownin' in your tears
So I won't cry for you
No I ain't gonna die for you
And I ain't gonna lie for you
No I ain't gonna cry for you
I ain't gonna cry for you
So ya lie awake and think about the sorrow
Does it really still the fears in your mind?
And you try to realize the things you've wanted
But you take it all for granted and now it makes you blind
And it feels like someone's treadin' on your shadow
And you always thought that heaven knows for sure
And it feels like you're drownin' in your tears
So I ain't gonna cry for you
No I ain't gonna die for you
And I ain't gonna lie for you
Oh I ain't gonna cry for you

6.Guilty As Hell
Stand back and look at you and tell me that is what you want to
be.
You realise that what you're seein' is a replica love thing
Inside my world is pretty grim, that even I can't survive in
I wouldn't try cause I know you
Deep inside you know you're guilty as hell
Deep inside you know you're guilty as hell
You realise that what you see is just a replica of me
Only me.
Oh it makes no difference if you're the only one.
It doesn't matter when all is said and done
Gonna feel the shame, God will put the blame on you.
Oh yeah.
If I was you
If I was you
I'ld wanna see
I'ld wanna see inside my head
I'ld wanna know if I was fucking dead
I wanna know what's going on
Someone tell me the truth
There's no fear in a fallen angel
There's no love in a heart made of stone
There's no truth in a heart that is screaming
Deep inside you know you're guilty as hell
There's no fear in a fallen angel
There's no love in a heart made of stone
There's no truth in a heart that is screaming
Deep inside you're guilty as hell, I hexed you.
7.Sick And Tired
Got no time to be on the road
Got no holes in my shoes
You're the reason all my friends are gone
But I won't run from you
So many promises and you broke them all

8.Rusty Angels
They say you came from heaven, but I know that's not the truth
Cause I don't think an angel could look anything like you
Your eyes are made from saphires and your heart is made from
stone
You've gotta be the closest thing to hate I've ever known
And if I didn't know better I'ld say you had come alone .. to
the party, oh yeah.
The light is always shining but you swear that it's gone black
The tide is always turning but you're never looking back
If I didn't know better I'ld say times were pretty bad
Cause rusty angels they can't fly
Rusty angels gonna die yeah
Rusty angels they can't fly
Rusty angels gonna die, gonna die
The gift you bring of fire and your dreams they turn to dust
Your flying days are over and your wings have turned to rust
If I didn't know better I'ld say all you had is lost
Cause rusty angels they can't fly
Rusty angels gonna die
Rusty angels they can't fly
Rusty angels gonna die, gonna die
If you swallow just a little pride
You might find a little love inside
Open up and let somebody in
Cause if you need somebody you know it's not a sin.

How the Hell am I supposed to please everyone?
Tell me what it is that I'm supposed to do yeah
I ain't here for everybody, but I ain't here for you
You said it isn't right, but you said it isn't wrong.

10.Kiss Of Death
This is no ordinary soul, that you're destroying.
Just another life that drifts along with the sands of time.

you're hurting me.
You told too many lies and so it ends now.
You tried to touch me, but then I knew your plan.

Now I see it, it's as clear as day.
No you'll never stand a chance, oh no you'll never stand a

But I've seen this road before, oh yeah.
There is no reason why I should listen now.
No you'll never stand a chance, oh no you'll never stand a
chance.
So many people tried before, but still I came through stronger
than before.
Someone like you could never get through my door no more.
Nothing you can do will hurt me, I am indestructible.
Nothing you can do will hurt me, I am indestructible. Yeah.
