Knives Are Drawn

I see the blood on your hands
I see the lies on the wall
I see the fortress you built now fall
I see this house made of glass
I see you throw the first stone
I see you sinking the ship all alone
You'll never feel this pain until you fight this war
You'll never go without until you beg for more
You'll never hear their screams 'til the silence falls
And you never turn your back 'til the knives are drawn
I see you shaking inside
I see you've lost all control
I see the ghost of the past and I know
I made this bed full of nails
I built this tomb on my own
I wont forgive and forget and I hope
You'll never feel this pain until you fight this war
You'll never go without until you beg for more
You'll never hear their screams 'til the silence falls
And you never turn your back 'til the knives are drawn
A broken mirror fills my soul
And all these shattered pieces still wont make me whole
The longer that I stay the more this distance grows
Now I cant look away because your knives are drawn
I'll wait
But I should of known
I'll wait
Like a lost child never to find a home
I'll break
But I wont wander this world alone
I hate
But still the knives are drawn

Both Eyes Open

Screaming your name I tear and I claw at the walls
And it's hard to breathe again when you never really mattered at all
I've burnt the bridge an I'm locking every door
And it's hard to feel pain if you never really care at all
But it’s not enough
And it won't keep the wolves at bay
They hunger for your suffering
And tonight we are their prey
With both eyes open
I see what I’ve become
The curtain’s closing
I am the chosen one
Whispering your words I tear away all I know
I light the fuse and I'm waiting for the bomb to blow
I'm so damn tired and my dignity is torn
But it's hard to feel ashamed if you get just what you're asking for
But it’s not enough
And it won't keep the wolves at bay
They hunger for your suffering
And tonight we are their prey
With both eyes open
I see what I’ve become
The curtains closing
I am the chosen one
With each breath I'm choking
I turn away from what I've done
What I've become
I'm coming undone
When all is said and done
I'm not the only one
I'm breathing it in and the pain is like an open sore
And it's hard to face the day when the nightmare's all your living for
I cant pretend someday I'll be reborn
But it's hard to stand up when your knees are too broken to crawl
But it's not enough
And it won't keep the wolves at bay
They hunger for your suffering
And tonight we are their prey
With both eyes open
I see what I've become
The curtain’s closing
I turn away from what I've done
The curtain’s closing
I am the chosen one
The curtain’s closing
I turn away from what I've done

Darkness Following

There's a monster in the mirror
And I kinda like his face
We all need a friend in a world of enemies
There's an angel on my shoulder
With a gun against her head
I don't need a fairytale
I'll never find a happy end
The sun wont shine
The birds wont sing
I've lost all faith in everything
I'm cold as ice
I'm the darkness following you
You can try to run
You can try to scream
You can pray for faith but you'll never heal
I'm cold as ice
'Im the darkness following you
There's a killer on the corner
But he says that he'll play nice
I turn my back and look the other way
But I see them sharpen their knives
There's a rapist at the altar
And a priest strapped in the chair
This whole world's filled with corruption
I cant be the only one who cares
The sun wont shine
The birds wont sing
I've lost all faith in everything
I'm cold as ice
I'm the darkness following you
You can try to run
You can try to scream
You can pray for faith but you'll never heal
I'm cold as ice
I'm the darkness following you
And I'll follow you
Right until the end
And I'll follow you
I'm your only friend
I'll follow you
'Til there's nothing left to save
And I'll follow you
Right into your grave
The sun wont shine
The birds wont sing
I've lost all faith in everything
I'm cold as ice
I'm the darkness following you
You can try to run
You can try to scream
You can pray for faith but you'll never heal
I'm cold as ice
I'm the darkness following you
Darkness
Following you
Darkness
Following you
Darkness
Always follows you
Darkness
Right into your grave

In The Name Of
04:47

After all is said and done
You shoot your mouth like a loaded gun
You fight for rights of those who've done us wrong
A lifetime of hate as we lament wha'ts gone
All in the name of god
Look at what you've done in the name of peace
Blood flows and heads will roll
Look at what you've done
You fake sympathy with no compromise
You show your hand but you're dead inside
You're making deals with the enemy
The sacrifice of suicide is your destiny
All in the name of god
Look at what you've done in the name of peace
Blood flows and heads will roll
Look at what you've done
Fall to your knees
Look at all you've done
See what you've done
Look at all you've done
See what you've done
In the name of god
See what you've done
In the name of god
Look at what's become
In the name of god
Your hands are stained with blood
In the name of god
In comes the flood
In the name
In the name of god
Fall to your knees

Blackened Days
04:38

When the night is drawing nearer
And skies they dont seem clearer
Awaken in a cold sweat again
You're shaking and shivering, restless
Alone you break waiting for vengeance
Please wake me now and just end these dreams
Sometimes you cant see their smiles through their painted on faces
Sometimes the mirror it only shows all our disgraces
When you're looking into broken mirrors
Your finger is hard on the trigger
You'll never find your way home again
You can pray for divine intervention
But you'll never find answers just questions
Please take me now and silence these screams
Sometimes you can make it right and your fortunes are faded
Sometimes you're lost and you'll never find just where you place is
Sometimes you cant see their smiles through their painted on faces
Sometimes the mirror it only shows all our disgraces
(And you can't see through)
The faith that you've misplaced
Leaves a scar that still remains
And all that you're laying to waste
Leaves me lost in blackened days
Sometimes you cant see their smiles through their painted on faces (their faces)
Sometimes the mirror it only shows all our disgraces
The faith that you've misplaced
Leaves a scar that still remains
And all that you're laying to waste
Leaves me lost in blackened days
And they're whispering your name
They'll haunt you 'til your dying day
All the hurt and all the pain
Leaves me lost in blackened days
