- A Fight For Peace
Hell walks the earth. His name is pain. I swear to God I've seen him. He's no stranger to me. I know him well. I'll write your name into the stars. We all have hell at our backs ready to take us. Salvation for these many scars. We all have dreams at night we're scared to speak of. They say everything happens for a reason and we all have purpose here. Can you tell me what this all means and why God am I here? We are all the same. We fight the same fight with different faces in different places. Demons by other names, they haunt us at night with different faces in different places. If all roads lead home, then home is pain. I swear to God I've been there. This place gets stranger by day. Am I in hell? You've taken this a step too far. We all have hell at our backs ready to take us. We need you staying where you are. We all have dreams at night we're scared to speak of. We all fight for peace of mind.
- And Weep
Your god is dead.
Your hands are soaked in blood.
You liar.
You're charged with death.
Murder of what's pure.
Perverted God for a fallen youth.
They'll follow every single word you say.
You're charged with death.
- Finite
We're the ones you run to when your world is crashing down.
This choice made years ago is such a heavy crown.
I didn't know it would be so hard.
That my words would mean so much.
I'm not your priest.
I'm not your prophet.
I'm not a saint.
I'm not god, so what now?
- Golden Barriers
Fame is a lonely world
Success has its enemies
Look where it's gotten us
Is this what we wanted
It has nothing for me
What can you offer a man
That has nothing to lose
I'm sick and tired of looking past the things you do
- Heart of a Child
With the heart of a child
My tainted eyes have
Not lost every ounce of innocence
I still fight to hold onto my youth
I won't give into death like you
Kingdom of youthfull minded
Positive but not innocent
- Malevolence
Who do you think you are?
And what have you become?
I have barely recognized your face for so long.
What do you think they see?
And what have you portrayed?
I can barely recognize your face.
It started with just a taste.
- Music City
Music city never shines so bright
As the nights when coming home to those lights
All the cities, buildings, and bridges in this country
Can't compare to the love affair between you and me
I have traveled the whole wide world
And I can't find a better place to reside
Every single tour takes me kicking and screaming
- My Song
In the winter of 2010, I lost my mother to the barrel of her loaded gun.
Two weeks later my forgotten dad lost the battle of his life long suicidal run.
He was dead to me years ago but losing her was an eternal blow.
I've spoke in the past of the broken, but now I really know.
If there's one thing I've learned, we're all put here to die.
- Prevaricator
Drown me in your lies and your unrepentant selfishness. Blood thirsty and deceitful. We were to be sheep among wolves. Oh but our flesh never tasted so good. You call me your brother. You call me your family. But you lie to my face. Look me in the eye you coward. I ought to put you in the ground. I ought to put you in the ground. You die with your secrets. You die with your secrets. We all die with our secrets. We all die with our secrets. I question your loyalty. Shed your skin. You were never one of us. I question your loyalty. Drink the blood. You were never one of us. I will never trust the hands of men. Never trust again. Will never trust the hands of men. Never trust again... We walk in the same circles. We walk the same streets but I’m not hiding in dark corners. How did you think you could keep this from me? I can’t think of one thing big enough to lie about. That’s small enough not to matter, not to matter. You kept your enemies closer than you kept me. Not cause you’re scared of defeat, but so your lies can’t be seen. You kept your enemies closer than you kept me. Not cause you’re scared of defeat, but so your lies can’t be seen.
- Resurrection Of The Beast
This night brings with it glory,
these hearts a victory song,
these eyes the flames of passion.
Watching now, the skies are splitting,
drying now the ocean's parch.
Cracking now, these lands are barren.
- Retribution
I can see it, I can feel it,
I can smell your fear in the air
can you feel it? can you see it?
can you feel your heart beat faster?
3X
Life as you know it is over and
this will be the death
- Room For The Dead
There's a battle for my soul between God, the devil, and rock n roll and when my head hits the sheets my feet will hit the ground running to heaven before the devil knows I'm dead. This place is a waiting room. Hoarding the diseased, waiting their turn. Sicker and sicker I wait and wait. I feel my lungs becoming numb. This place is a deadly room, culturing disease, waiting to burn. Pacing and pacing I wait and wait. I feel my legs becoming numb. Doctor I've got this lump in my throat. It's not the cigarettes that stunt my growth. There's voices inside my head. I need the medicine. Who will win the battle for my soul between God, the devil, and rock n roll and when my head hits the sheets my feet are tired of running. Murdered or the murderers, we're all the same. Kingsmen or the poorly dressed, we're pawns in this game.
- Shiver
Cheap steps make for easy regrets but keep your words of contempt.
You are no friend my enemy you tear me down keep me weak.
I wear no crown of weakness His is no crown of weakness.
I wear no crown of weakness hide in your own contempt.
- The Eternal Female
i am the reaper
i will be the demise of your reign
i am the dark shadow where you hide
self-righteous fascist, you chase the sun
glory belongs to no man
crooked church, you sell the Son
thieves deserve to have no hands
our prisons were built with the stones of law
- The Jealous Wings
Wading through the water, slow and thick. I am aware now.
They’re not who they said they were, slipping on their words beneath the surface.
For what it’s worth I know, I’m not the man you were.
I’m living in the shadows of intent and we’re all teeth in the wolf’s mouth.
Risk and regret, thrive tonight, the masterminds of mud and mire.
Build your kingdoms up and when they fall, we’ll be watching every brick.
- The Life
Look at all of us running
Always behind, always late
We're always playing catch up
In this human race
All of these young men dying of old age
To feel alive could cost you everything
It's hard to hold onto your ideals
- The New Born Wonder
I'm lost without a sound but I have ears to hear.
God, I'm weak and I'm tired and I want this fighting in my head to stop.
They say hang it up young man.
They say hate only leaves you cold and alone.
I'm too jaded to care but too scared to run.
I let my apathy get the best of me.

- The Resurrection Of The Beast
This night brings with it glory,
these hearts a victory song,
these eyes the flames of passion.
Watching now, the skies are splitting,
drying now the ocean's parch.
Cracking now, these lands are barren.
- While The Sparrow Sleeps
Outside these city walls I sing
while the sparrow sleeps.
These hands couldn't raise any higher.
This heart couldn't find a deeper hole.
With your blood on my hands,
I speak more about you than with you.
The work of my hands is not yet my prayer.
If a song is just a song, will my voice be heard.
- Words Misread
My cynicism was never yours to boast.
You've greatly missed the point of what was said.
Instead of questioning them, you just followed me.
Robots, zombies, cattle herded by other's words.
It was never meant to be like this. breeding your anger was not my intention.
Though that be the case, I've made this bed and now we all have to weep in it.
Hate, dissension between brothers of the same.
Words meant to provoke thought, misread instead.
