Gasoline dreams of water flowing Moisture on the glass, infatuation Golden ale to wash away Aching ideas coming in day to day I don't want a voice no more I don't want to scream no more I've been dead like you Nothing to myself Sickness breeding misery Looking for escape Broadcast, we are the receivers Injecting stories from true deceivers Sick, sick, this is what we want To feed from depths while getting kicked from the top I don't want to breathe anymore I've been dead like you Nothing to myself A sickness breeding misery Looking for escape

Mankind 02:52
I’m gonna hunt you down I’m gonna make sure that you never were I’m gonna make you hurt so bad something I can assure I will cut your fucking throat I will cauterize your eyes I will make you feel the pain In amounts you won’t realize You don’t want to stay here I don’t want to stay here I don’t want a distraction that will haunt me for a life-time So much for regress So much for progress Don’t ever wanna sustain a hatred for mankind! I’ve seen the crippled hands I’ve seen the broken bones you rectified I know the falling shadows swarm with folks of your own kind That will cut my fucking throat and will feel me from inside They will make me feel the pain, in amounts I won’t realize You don’t want to stay here I don’t want to stay here I don’t want a distraction that will haunt me for a life-time So much for regress A Self-righteous progress Don’t ever wanna sustain a hatred for mankind!

She's got nothing On me and I'll soon be forgetting about it How close we come To tying the noose then our life is all done Now we see each other In plain sight, but I've been blind forever So off with your attack Quick place your pawns all across the map Not that it's anything to say But please stay away from this You don't want it I gave you the count of three Enough to understand me And now it's time to go Love is discomfort Settling for second instead of first While time will pass through my mind Night is so haunting Filled with foul memory of the whole thing And can you wait for me Or rid yourself and set me free Not that it's anything to say But please stay away from this You don't want it I gave you the count of three Enough to understand me And now it's time to go

Hurt 03:21
I’ve seen you look at her and stare with exotic eyes I know she knows but she pretends to read hungry inside Why do these things we fear don’t make sense and cause us to hurt Hurt It’s always something that breaks us and cause us to hurt Hurt Just give me something, anything but this Some people never change, some people don’t change at all The war won and you feel dizzy and ready to fall Why do these things we fear don’t make sense and cause us to hurt Hurt It’s always something that breaks us and cause us to hurt Hurt Just give me something, anything but this Cause to hurt

Get A Gun! 03:12
They're coming in waves for you Eroding earth under our heals Persisting to control Until we have no ground to stand The shot up children hit the streets Rallying concerns and argument The static over shadows Overcomes the origin of it all And it doesn't matter One more reason to get yourself a gun They tried and failed, seen the cause So get yourself a gun The hands of modern gods Laid out what will be and what is They need not to abide For gods cannot commit such crimes We're spinning now Spinning in emotion We could rewrite it all For this one night And we don't see Like a child of a bitch of a dog We submit One more reason to get yourself a gun They tried and failed, seen the cause So get yourself a gun

Better Days 00:44
Don't want to stand on my laurels anymore But I can't stand on my own two feet It's like a huge weight on my shoulder Crushing down on you and me I need better days This isn't working I need better days I need more clarity If I wake early in the morning Most likely fall back asleep There's nothing quite like my lack of production Just stare at a wall all day
7.
Settle Down 02:44
I’ve been wondering what you Have been searching for ever since we first met Its like you, just can’t settle down Settle down enough to keep all of your friends Sad and confused are we To undermine to goals that dictated our lives Your minds a question Seeking answers, proving people wrong, embarrassing best friends, Never resolving problems I’ve done things I can’t take back Made mistakes, I’ve told some lies and I’ve been a dick How bout you? Ignoring what you built Cast aside the rules you wrote and forced down our throats Sad and confused are we To realize how far we’ve come and how much we’ve grown Your minds a question Seeking answers, proving people wrong, embarrassing best friends, Never resolving problems If I could take it back (seeking answers) If I could do it again (proving people wrong) I think I’d waste your time (embarrassing best friends) Just like you wasted mine (never resolving problems) I wouldn’t be so nice (seeking answers) I wouldn’t show I cared (proving people wrong) I wouldn’t be so kind (embarrassing best friends) You wouldn’t have entered my mind (never resolving problems)

By Pattern 02:07
Sign out your heart with your hands Share your concerns along with demands At the end it's all a failed faulty plan Lanterns aligned, folded flags Freedom placed by dirty hands In the end you say, "Take all you can" Well, can you explain? Been scheming by pattern, no less While i play the fool in the mess Pull to show worth and cracked at grace Trust and control were all misplaced Hours spent building on a shattered base Lanterns aligned, folded flags Freedom placed by dirty hands In the end you say, "Take all you can" Well, can you explain? Been scheming by pattern, no less While i play the fool in the mess

She lost her innocence at age 15 to a man who paid money, money! (She didn’t break the law, no person raised an eye) A Norman occurrence her parents didn’t think twice They got her dowry in return they got her rights, rights! (Scared and confused, she closed her eyes tight) Bright green pastures and memories of friends She thought it was in her head, reality broke her heart (She couldn’t face the truth, she didn’t want to) How in the hell could this be all there is? Shattered and confused quickly turned to rage (She thought to fight back, she tried to fight back) Half a decade defected all her dreams Her sprit is broken there’s no where left to go, go (She had to let go, it hurt to hold on) She still can’t believe that this is the way it is She’s fragile and broken she cries all the time, time (She got down on her knees, she closed her eyes tight) Bright green pastures and memories of friends She thought it was in her head, reality broke her heart (She couldn’t bare the thought, another hopeless life) How in the hell could this be all there is? Shattered and confused quickly turned to rage (The cycle repeats, nothing is done) And she knows she can’t leave And if she does it could mean her end In a land the constitutes the trade of a human girl Supported by holy books Dragged on for thousands of years What is she to do? Could someone please tell her?

Come sweet sorrow, let the days pass by Thoughts sink while body passes through time Waters around grow still and cold Colors once bright begin to crush and fold I can't find the reason But I try November bring the season When I die Mirrors reveal a bitter sweet taste The truth about my time being a waste My skin constricts and crushes Leaving one only option I can't find the reason But I try November bring the season When I die

You're so righteous, yes, you pray for them everyday Even though you condemn what they do Whatever helps you sleep How's your son, are you still writing him? You're such a fucking saint with your thought provoking slogan Preaching lies and furthering hate in your self defense Our indifference and guilt accepting Keep their weapons loaded and armed We silently break our own hearts Avoiding any kind of blame You put your faith in the man with the gun Who will be the hero when the war is won. Our indifference and guilt accepting Keep their weapons loaded and armed We silently break our own hearts Avoiding any kind of blame Don't support their lies and greed Don't support their death machine

Second Hand 03:26
Some people never change and they never will And then they come around and ask me if you still Only hope to never be like you Then they come around and ask me What this war is, is worth fight for? Can’t you see that were running out of, running out of, time Can’t you see that were running out of, running out of, time Some people pray for change I think you know which ones The ones who pick up trash and play catch with their sons My only wish is for people to learn from this Then they come around and ask me What this war is, is worth fight for? Can’t you see that were running out of, running out of, time Can’t you see that were running out of, running out of, time Can’t you see that were running out of time Can’t you see that were running out, running, running, running out …of time

It's pretty clear that you wanna go Getting distressed, give your routine a rest You're saying you didn't want to be apart ever I didn't ever want to be a part of you Pattern forming, life conforming Stuck together in a house of cards You're saying you didn't want to be apart ever I didn't ever want to be a part of you
