We are sick to the back teeth, of all this shit Draw the line, (Surrender it) Force fed lie after lie until we just can't stomach this Shed the weight of this self loathing, we come out fighting coz we're better than that Time will tell but you won't tell us, we'll see for ourselves coz enough is enough And if there is one thing that life has shown (It's that no one ever knows) You're not in control The truth is that no one ever knows ONLY YOURSELF x2 The truth is we the truth is we Know what we live for x2

Adrift 02:39
Abandoned from an early age, to be born into a broken home A threat was made upon my life before I ever could have known Overcome everything, through the worst of times Their pride forever fuels my life, the true power of the mind Born into, the world alone. Cast aside, to the unknown. Shown the way, and raised with love. I'll forever be the son you lost. THE SON YOU LOST. LOST! My father never spoke a, single word to me But then again he left me, before I came to be My mother always raised me, to be true of heart Forever blessed by a man, who owed me nothing from the start I've been adrift for far too long, but now it's time to come back home. Again But now I'm home again!

With eyes too blind to see your ignorance, (has taken its toll) With ears too deaf to hear, all sense too numb to feel You risk the love that you have and you just can't seem to understand You're just wasting away, we're all fading away You don't have to confine yourself to these walls I'll be your eyes, when light begins to fade And bring new life, to your shade I'll bring new life To your shade With eyes too blind to see your ignorance, (has taken it's toll) With ears too deaf to hear, all sense too numb to feel You risk the love that you have, and you just can't seem to understand You're just wasting away, we're all fading away Just because you exist (x2) Doesn't mean you're alive (Alive) With eyes too blind to see your ig-nor-ance With ears too deaf to hear, all sense too numb to feel You risk the love that you have You're just wasting away, we're all fading away Away You risk the love that you have, that you have I'll be your eyes, when light. BEGINS TO FADE

Denounced 04:04
I can't stand to hear another word, It's changing me Why should I sit here and be denounced, In such a way Defense to attack in the blink of an eye. No moment of respite You fail to see what's right and wrong in this world. As if the borders collapsing Change, it changes me It changes me (It changes me) If you lived like this yourself. You'd see You just don't understand And you never will And now when I look at you I don't know what to think, I don't know how to make you see who you are I DONT KNOW WHAT TO FUCKING SAY Anymore! Within my mind is a battle of change (you can't win) Bearing arms loaded with. HATE! Have you any ground to walk on. On your horse that stands so tall We wave our banners for our own reasons. You can't burn them all x2 You can't burn them all A Battle with no end. You call arms and never cease to persist And you'll never reach the horizon. When you're stranded on the shore.

We are the victims of our own demise, You can’t sustain a system built on lies, PAIN. You pushed it aside and let, Greed consume all of your pride. Greed. Consumed your pride. (Don’t think twice) we’re living in a broken nation, (Time to realise) we have to face our own creation. Where will we go we have no home? What once was peace has now all gone. Why should we live in this life of torment (we are one) Shoulder to shoulder, WE ARE ONE The air I breathe and all I see, Will soon be buried under my feet x2 Why should we live in this life of torment, WE ARE ONE The air I breathe and all I see, Will soon be buried under our feet. We are the victims. x3 We will stand and unite. WE WILL UNITE Shoulder to shoulder, We will unite. Shoulder to shoulder, we must unite WE. MUST. UNITE.

Apart 03:25
The current never stops Forever sweeping me beneath my feet The wind it never fades This constant gale i thought i couldn’t face The fire always burns There is a message hidden in these flames The earth it still rotates As long as there is land to break our fall, how can we be so. How can we be so… Apart from life, From what’s on our minds. But also from what’s right in front of our eyes. We try so hard to submerge ourselves In something we’re uncertain or afraid of. But all it takes is this moment, to stop and open up. Because you might realise the light you worked so hard to fight Might not be so unbearably bright. [Pause] And just like that, you know these walls. All it took was something or someone [to break the fall] The current never stops The wind it never fades The fire always burns The earth it still rotates

Because the voices in my head (NEVER SLEEP) Neither do I Hour after hour, again and again How do I drown the voices in my head Too proud to ask for the help I probably need. But I find this burden entwines, With the stubborn in me On top of borderline addiction, it's so hard to keep control So I'll follow the rabbit hole down to the devils door I knock on the devils door, and pray to god that he answers me x2 I seek the strength to end this torment The minutes are hours the hours are days There's not much more that I can take before I just cave My past is calling me, towards my future Lack of understanding, My vision is impaired I've just about had, all that I can bare For better or worse, in health and in sickness I am the true portrayal of insanity Because the voices in my head never sleep Neither do I Hour after hour, again and again How do I drown the voices, IN MY HEAD On top of borderline addiction, it's so hard to keep control So I'll follow the rabbit hole down to the devils door
