1.Medication
We'll keep calm and carry on,
With good intentions.
They'll prescribe the rights and wrongs,
Until we're perfect.
So maybe one day we'll be safe,
In control and full of grace,
Never making a mistake.
So flawless.
Cut us deeper to the core,
We won't feel a thing.
Imperfections weighing more,
Repressing difference.
I wish this wasn't all so hard,
To be yourself and not on guard.
To stop the racing in your heart.
We'll fight it.
Put me under,
Now I'm powerless.
I'll take it all,
I'll take it all,
I'll take it.
I can't breathe without you.
You won't trust me,
I won't trust you too.
Bring me back and,
Bring me back and,
Bring it,
Medicate me.
Hide me deeper in my shed,
Until I'm all alone.
I'm hearing voices in this sound,
Hallucinating.
I could have sworn I heard it too,
A sudden, beautiful adieu.
It's telling me what I should do,
I follow.
Put me under,
Now I'm powerless.
I'll take it all,
I'll take it all,
I'll take it.
I can't breathe without you.
You won't trust me,
I won't trust you too.
Bring me back and,
Bring me back and,
Bring it,
Medicate me now.
As I'm turning into dis-reflection,
You can't slow me.
My body and my mind,
My emotions and my pride.
The simplest things became the hardest part now,
The easiest parts have taken all my dreams.
I'm afraid,
I'll never be okay.
I'm afraid,
I'm scared I can't be happy.
I'm afraid,
This silence you feel is not a way to be sincere, (I'm afraid)
And it's a way to cope,
A way to heal, (I'm scared I can't be happy)
But not for me when I can't feel. (I'm afraid)
The subtleties that make me want to, (I'll never be okay)
Be alive and not a statue, (I'm afraid)
Breathe the air,
Be me to talk to. (I'm scared I can't be happy)
I'm afraid. (I'll never be the same)
2.Sacrifice
It's so familiar to me
A gun in your hand, a hole in my chest
And now you strike a match and inhale
It's now to the points where it's all so routine
The anchor's up, your ship has been sailed
Close your eyes to fight the demons deep within your mind
Satisfy your worst intentions
I'm your sacrifice
Dressing yourself up to kill
You do this for peace, you do this for love,
But you know there has to be loss
Lives torn apart as you've hit your mark
You'll take your share at anyone's cost
Close your eyes to fight the demons deep within your mind
Satisfy your worst intentions
I'm your sacrifice
The metal is cold to lift and to hold
But now my heart feels the warm undertow
I cannot breathe, the way I feel about you suffocates
I will not speak, the words I feel about you go to waste
I will lay here until my body washes up on shore
I'll sacrifice with everything I believed in before
I'll get back up and do it again
Close your eyes to fight the demons deep within your mind
Satisfy your worst intentions
I'm your sacrifice
3.Forget Your Heart
Fight these eyes,
They're drawing you, inside.
Sign the name in marker,
Watch the clouds as they got darker.
Felt it start to slip away.
All the schemes were made and plotted,
All the rules have been forgotten now.
I made it by the skin of my teeth again this time.
I'm waiting,
Still waiting,
To get away and make a change,
Seasons last forever in this phase.
Forget your heart.
It's weighing you down inside,
As you confide your life to someone else.
Maybe we're scared to be alone,
We're not prepared to throw the stones,
And watch them drift out of our control.
I braced my body for the sudden impact,
That was more than I ever thought that it would be.
And when it knocked me over,
I've never felt more stiff than sober now.
I'm struggling to get up and run away.
I've wasted,
I've wasted my life away.
I've gotta change,
I've gotta burn the book and turn the page.
Forget your heart.
It's weighing you down inside,
As you confide your life to someone else.
Maybe we're scared to be alone,
We're not prepared to throw the stones,
And watch them drift out of our control.
There's no return,
To what you had when you started,
Before you lost control.
You will never recover.
Fight these eyes,
They're drawing you inside.
Lie down,
And break down,
You're dead.
Lie down before you lose control.
Lie down,
And break down,
You're dead.
Lie down before you lose control.
Forget your heart.
It's weighing you down inside,
As you confide your life to someone else.
Maybe we're scared to be alone,
We're not prepared to throw the stones,
And watch them drift out of our control.
4.Intervention
Forgive all my sins
I know I'll commit them
I know what will happen
When I trade reason for loss of control
A call to arms
With holes and scars
With healthy minds
We enlisted to war
You will see a shadow
Cast upon the light you know
There will be an angel weeping
Tears of blood that stain the earth below
You'll lose yourself
But you won't find any peace
You won't find any hope
You'll lose yourself
Is this where you belong？
You try to avoid it
You try to abstain
But it relentlessly
Takes its control
You must obey
You'll cower now
You've surpassed
Your threshold for pain
You will see a shadow
Cast upon the light you know
There will be an angel
Weeping tears of blood
That stain the earth below
You'll lose yourself
But you won't find any peace
You won't find any hope
You'll lose yourself
Is this where you be？
You are not the one who's trapped inside
You can make a difference
Look into your mind
Your memories are what defines
Who you really are
That's what makes you special, beautiful
You can still be loved
You are held in such a high regard
Your blood is contagious
Summoning desperation
Your mind is a blur, a chemical spill
You need to wipe it out
You must fight, you must fight
You must stand, you must stand
You must believe in yourself
You will see a shadow
Cast upon the light you know
There will be an angel
Weeping tears of blood
That stain the earth below
You'll lose yourself
But you won't find any peace
You won't find any hope
You'll lose yourself
Is this where you belong？
5.Good Luck With Your Lives
I've looked you right in the face
And I have told the worst lies
I've put my arms around you
And felt nothing at all
I've stolen tasteless bread
I've salted hundreds of cities, paint them red
I've taken a thousand miles and
I'll take a thousand more until you say
You can't believe me
You can't make me stay
You won't change
I hear your whispers calling me
I will turn away (turn away)
Just like a hunter you will prey
Prey on me
And the world will let you hang
I just made a pact with them
To always drop you where you land
I'll fight from my way and
I'll say that I've changed and
I'll try to convince you you should stay
Whatever your goal, I'll be here
Making sure you fail
You can't believe me
You can't make me stay
You won't change
I hear your whispers calling me
I will turn away (turn away)
Just like a hunter you will prey
Prey on me (prey on me, prey on me, prey)
These seven years have opened my eyes
But I don't want you living all again (all again)
You can't believe me
You can't make me stay
You'll never change
I hear your whispers calling me
I will turn away (I will turn away, turn away)
Just like a hunter you will prey
Prey on me
Undreadful？ I have been
Loyalty？ I have none
No respect, no passion
I'm out to find it
6.Texas Mickey
Single file you fall into
Another empty bottle
Growing larger, trapped inside
And now you cannot swallow all your pride
You'll fall asleep alone tonight
With one day less until you die
Until you die
One more time
You'll confirm all our suspicions
While you close your eyes and lie
You and I
Will continue to discover
That we're wasting so much time
Silver rings piercing the skin
We know you're keeping secrets
Horizontal memories
Too many just to regret deep inside
You'll fall asleep with them tonight
Penetrating in your mind
And not just tonight
One more time
You'll confirm all our suspicions
While you close your eyes and lie
You and I
Will continue to discover
That we're wasting so much time
Looking back
All the stupid drama
That painted my world black
Holding hands was the gateway drug
That led to mess I'm in
But I won't give up, I won't lie down
As you take away my friends
Don't try to change me now
Don't start to judge me now
There's been a hundred lows
But there has been a million highs
And now we're wasting so much time
7.The Artist
The artist's palette falls,
The paint is spilled with blood.
Someone shot him down,
Left him without a soul.
His body's laid to rest and underground he'll stay,
With hopes to resurrect and live again another day.
Now they decide who lives and dies.
Now!
His peers won't come around,
They're too disgraced to face.
Another soldier down,
His life work's a waste.
And now these walls are bare,
No one pretends to care.
A distant memory,
His masterpiece
In disrepair.
Now they decide who lives and dies.
Now they will hold you back.
They will hold you back.
They will hold you...
We stand tall and illuminate.
We fight through and prevail.
We don't stop where you'd be giving up.
We won't ever fail.
A martyr takes his hand,
To make him live again.
With savage sleight of hand,
He'll force his legs to stand.
A sick and gutless joke,
A serenading hoax.
Interrupted peace.
A waste of time.
A pathetic excuse for hope.
The sleepless nights have no compassion
And the dreams that come aren't true.
A charade of lies unconscious
And so much left to be proved.
But the sun will rise and fall again
And the nights will start to shorten.
The memories will fade into darkness.
You can't let it go.
But your world is turned upside down.
It's a panic you can't release.
Once you have it, you just can't
Ever ignore it.
That's when you realize your best
Days are behind you.
And all you ever live for
Is regret.
You can't take it away. (You!)
You can't take it away. (You!)
8.Burning Hearts
The blood is rushing to my head
This room is spinning 'round the bed
A flashing image perforates
Tarnishes memories of grace
A bursting fiery fortune to misshape
And if my body makes it out
Unscathed and safe from broken vows
A promise spoken leaves me holding on
I just can't get a hold of
Why we always hurt the ones we love
Can burning hearts still keep us strong？
A crack has formed in the foundation
The floor is falling out from under me
A pleading loser makes his case
A liar shakes his hand and breaks
A life of honor turns into his shame
And if my body makes it out
Unscathed and safe from broken vows
A promise spoken leaves me holding on
I just can't get a hold of
Why we always hurt the ones we love
Can burning hearts still keep us strong？
It's all my fault (It's all my fault)
This eagle's flying down below where shadows fall
Now it's sinking in (Now it's sinking in)
That I'm sinking into this place I never thought I'd view
You can't trust me, I'm not worthy
You won't ever feel this way
The storm is moving overhead
The wind is blowing back, we've been disliked
And if my body makes it out
Unscathed and safe from broken vows
A promise spoken leaves me holding on
I just can't get a hold of
Why we always hurt the ones we love
Can burning hearts still keep us strong？
9.Darling Harbour
In a lighthouse by the sea
At the 33rd degree
You make me feel so special and free
But there's something in the air
Turning stutters into stares
I look into your blue eyes and say
(Darling) Don't throw it all away
(Darling) I'm here to make you stay with me
In the sun I look so pale
Northern skin's so thin and frail
But I try to close my eyes when everything starts fading
When I wake up from this dream
Shivering under cold sheets
Ten thousand miles away, I wish I was on king street
(Darling) Don't throw it all away
(Darling) I'm here to make you stay with me
Newly risen, how brightly you shine
Something seems to give inside my heart when you're nearby
All I've given to you is vacant eyes
I don't understand
I can't figure it out, I can't figure it
On a park bench by the street
At the 43rd degree
I'll sit and watch the snow fall and think
If these words could tell the tale
And excuse to no avail
Would you ever begin
To forgive me again, to forgive me now
(Darling) Don't throw it all away
(Darling) I'm here to make you stay with me (stay with me)
(Darling, don't throw it all, don't throw it all away)
(Darling, I'm here to make, I'm here to make you stay)
10.Live To Kill
We live to kill each other
We are the wealthy and the poor
We shout but we don't listen
All we want is more
Shut the door
You're letting the darkness out
It's just about the time to watch you die
Close the blinds
We're hiding our skin from sun
Where you become yesterday's headlines
I never said that I was sorry
We live to kill each other
We are the wealthy and the poor
We shout but we don't listen
All we want is more
It will be beautiful
When I'm catching in the life I stole
With the perfect sound at the perfect time
All the single words I forged to line
It is safe to say to forget your name
When the song I wrote's on the stereo
I don't have to justify
Paying your dues is a waste of precious time
What would you leave when you could follow？
We live to kill each other
We are the wealthy and the poor
We shout but we don't listen
All we want is more
More than we deserve
Realize our potential
Maximize our return
We'll conserve
A portrait of everything perfect
And aim every house has heard
I'd take it all and leave you nothing
We live to kill each other
We are the wealthy and the poor
We shout but we don't listen
All we want is more
We live to kill each other
We are the wealthy and the poor
We shout but we don't listen
All we want is more
All we want is more
All we want is more
11.Replace You
I'm the setting sun behind the trees,
The saddest one you've seen.
I've been burning holes and breaking dreams,
And I regret it.
I'm fixing things I've broken,
It's not as easy, as it used to be.
I'm throwing temper tantrums,
I used to settle but now I make a scene,
You can't believe.
I said I'd never walk away,
But I'm not able to stay.
I said I'd never leave this place,
But I can't stay here.
To watch you fade, and watch you change in,
To someone I can't face.
I can't replace I, can't replace you.
You're the swirling wind above the sea,
The maddest storm they've seen.
Now your breaking waves and smashing dreams,
And you can't help it.
You're drowning streets and stranding a million people,
You're starting out with me.
You're crashing down from anger,
You stop and settle, and now you're sound asleep.
And so serene.
I said I'd never walk away,
But I'm not able to stay.
I said I'd never leave this place,
But I can't stay here.
To watch you fade, and watch you change in,
To someone I can't face.
I can't replace I, can't replace you.
And when the sun is down,
And when the skies are calm you'll see, calm we'll be.
Wait for the cycle,
We'll repeat our same mistakes (same mistakes)
The same mistakes we've always made.
I said I'd never walk away,
But I'm not able to stay.
I said I'd never leave this place,
But I can't stay here.
To watch you fade, and watch you change in,
To someone I can't face.
I can't replace I, can't replace you. (replace you)
I said I'd never walk away,
But I'm not able to stay.
I said I'd never leave this place,
But I can't stay here.
To watch you fade, and watch you change in,
To someone I can't face.
I can't replace I, can't replace you.
I said I'd never walk away...
12.In Memory Of...
Fighting tears, trembling voice straight to my ear
A moment I'll never forget
Someone I love, telling me someone I love
Had just been called to his reward
24, a leader a father adored.
We'll never be with him again
Take me down to the garden behind the old house
Sail away with me
Words can be the most beautiful or the most cold
I didn't know what to say
To a father who suddenly loses his son
I still think about that every day
Take me down to the garden behind the old house
Sail away with me
Break it down
Trace the steps moving to the gold town
Lost your past from me
Made the plans and backed out
Stayed at home and did nothing
But now I'm taking the 400 up north
The last time I'll ever see your face
I don't want to believe that this is it
I want to believe in something more
Growing up wasn't easy for this boy
Who only wanted to live and do what's right
I can't feel (I can't feel)
I can't feel my heart when I hurt myself
I can't feel (I can't feel)
I can't feel the pain when I hurt my friends
I can't feel (I can't feel)
But it's taking you further, and further, away
Take me down to the garden behind the old house
Sail away with me
Break it down
Trace the steps moving to the gold town
Lost your past from me
Take me down to the garden behind the old house
Sail away with me
