(Mosh, mo, mo, mosh
Mo, mosh
Mo, mo, mo, mosh) x4
(Open up the floor
And jump in the pit
Bounce up and down
Like you don't give a shit
Run in a circle
And make the room shake
Tear it all down
Like a fuckin earthquake) x2
Get the party started
And mosh in the streets
Can't stop us
We mosh to the beats
Point of no return
So keep the receipt
Better hold your own
Or you'll be kissing concrete
Controlled chaos
Let's break down the walls
Only live once
So go for it all
No matter your size
Whether big or small
Get in the pit
And try not to fall
(Mosh, mo, mo, mosh
Mo, mosh
Mo, mo, mo, mosh) x4
(Open up the floor
And jump in the pit
Bounce up and down
Like you don't give a shit
Run in a circle
And make the room shake
Tear it all down
Like a fuckin earthquake) x2
Get your anger out
In a positive way
The floor is yours
To push and slay
Better get ready
For the music melee
Don't worry though
This is how adult's play
Dance and push
Do you feel it in your bones
The pit opens up
Spinning like a cyclone
No time to waste
So get off your phone
This is where I feel myself
And am at home
(Mosh, mo, mo, mosh
Mo, mosh
Mo, mo, mo, mosh) x4
(Open up the floor
And jump in the pit
Bounce up and down
Like you don't give a shit
Run in a circle
And make the room shake

This is self-expression
aggression at its finest
But don't jump in
If you're scared and spineless
Be brave and strong
It'll remain timeless
Rockin at shows
With friends is priceless
pits are no joke
Here's a little advice
Stay aware
If you plan to roll the dice
If you don't
You might pay the price
Yelling for a medic
To bring some fuckin ice
(Mosh, mo, mo, mosh
Mo, mosh
Mo, mo, mo, mosh) x4
(Open up the floor
And jump in the pit

Lights Out
03:59

(When lights go out
She turns to a freak
When lights go out
He turns to a beast
Meant for each other
In the night, they ride
Monsters and ghouls
Sent to earth to collide) x2
It's all fun and games
Til the lights go out
It's give and take
In this heavyweight bout
Push and pull
And I'll show what I'm about
You might change me
But I'll never sellout
This love has me trippin'
Surrounded by monsters
Can't be scared though
You have to conquer
The demons in your head
Don’t let them alter
Your smile and grace
Only makes you stronger
Shout out to the girls
Who love the ghouls
No love to the ones
Who play us as fools
see what you get
For being so cruel
Thanks to the lovers
For staying old school
(When lights go out
She turns to a freak
When lights go out
He turns to a beast
Meant for each other
In the night, they ride
Monsters and ghouls
Sent to earth to collide) x2
Make your way to the stage
I see your pretty face
This is what I love
When you and me embrace
Warmth rages in the flames
Of eternal gates
Can you sense my desire
Bumping in the bass
It all depends
On the chosen path
Will you listen to the word
Or feel his wrath
shower in sin
As I take a bath
To cleanse my soul
Of a tattered past
Remember what I say
It all has an effect
On our ability
To grow and connect
But I'm only human
What did you expect
A romeo dead and lost
Without his Juliet
(When lights go out
She turns to a freak
When lights go out
He turns to a beast
Meant for each other
In the night, they ride
Monsters and ghouls
Sent to earth to collide) x2
They force my idle hand
Isolation pulls me down
Fall from heaven
Slamming to the ground
Black wings on fire
They're burning so bright
Illuminate the darkness
That has my soul tonight
Have you heard
The other side in someone's voice
Their eyes tell all
Like I really had a choice
Join me in love
It's something to rejoice
Talk dirty to me like
Are you wet and moist
The mystery of love and death
In this ancient riddle
Said this before
I'm stuck in the middle
Who would've thought
I'd fall for your giggle
Lovers to the end of time
Plain and simple
(When lights go out
She turns to a freak
When lights go out
He turns to a beast
Meant for each other
In the night, they ride
Monsters and ghouls
Sent to earth to collide) x2

When you get hurt
And see how it feels
It wasn’t a dream
With ache so unreal
When you get hurt
And see how it feels
Is your heart still there
Or was it her meal
When you get hurt
And see how it feels
You'll question
All your beliefs and ideals
When you get hurt
And see how it feels
How did you react
And what did it reveal
Not getting what you want
Is a tough pill to swallow
Lost in love and sex
As I chose to wallow
Her beauty captivated
I chose to follow
The right hand of the devil
coming tomorrow
He tells me to give up
But I won't let him in
But he knows the stories
Behind that darkened den
"give up, take my hand
I'll take you to the promised land"
Where you wanna be
With white grains of sand
Could this be true
Or is it another trick
To sell my soul again
I feel so sick
People in power
Just bitch and politic
Casting spells of hate
Witches on their broomstick
When you get hurt
And see how it feels
It wasn’t a dream
With ache so unreal
When you get hurt
And see how it feels
Is your heart still there
Or was it her meal
When you get hurt
And see how it feels
You'll question
All your beliefs and ideals
When you get hurt
And see how it feels
How did you react
And what did it reveal
Something that'll test
your strength and commitment
To the ones yet to feel
I know you're indifferent
Here's some advice
As you stand resistant
Never fall in love
To ones too distant
To the things you love
I say stay dedicated
Someone will take notice
As demonstrated
Don’t let them take control
And keep you regulated
Your time will come soon enough
As estimated
Lucky to be alive
I feel born again
Could this be my purpose
Words bleed with the pen
footsteps behind the bar
Every now and then
Remind me of a time before
When boys turn to men
When you get hurt
And see how it feels
It wasn’t a dream
With ache so unreal
When you get hurt
And see how it feels
Is your heart still there
Or was it her meal
When you get hurt
And see how it feels
You'll question
All your beliefs and ideals
When you get hurt
And see how it feels
How did you react
And what did it reveal
Creepin' in the streets
A broken soul waits
Die for the things you love
see who appreciates
Your sacrifice of all your work
As they immolate
My heart, mind, and soul
All burned at the stake
family and friends
Will feel disconnected
But art, music, and movies
Will have you resurrected
All we ever wanted
Was to feel accepted
In a world that keeps us down
And feeling rejected
This is my frustration
Accepted or disowned
They'll never know the real me
To them unbeknown
He's a caitiff coward
Without a backbone
Never to be heard
Sing from a dead zone
When you get hurt
And see how it feels
It wasn’t a dream
With ache so unreal
When you get hurt
And see how it feels
Is your heart still there
Or was it her meal
When you get hurt
And see how it feels
You'll question
All your beliefs and ideals
When you get hurt
And see how it feels
How did you react
And what did it reveal

Crowd Surfin'
02:58

Surfin the net
I see you in the crowd
Screaming my name
Man, oh so loud
Ride that wave
In a sea of fans
Towards the stage
That’s where we jam
Rock star dreams
Hope we get noticed
Ride or die
I'll never lose focus
Onto the grave
With youthful angst
I see no change
Just copy and paste
Are we all led
Til everything's erased
Controlled and stabbed
By people two-faced
Stand with me
Before it goes to waste
And leaves us broken
With a bitter taste
Feelings of joy
Yeah, when we crowd surf
Blue emotions
Have us looking like smurfs
Hard as guns
But soft as nerf
Connected to the artist
This is our turf
The live show
Is something euphoric
But a revolution
Is something historic
Can you find meaning
In words metaphoric
What is time
In times prehistoric
Surfin the net
I see you in the crowd
Screaming my name
Man, oh so loud
Ride that wave
In a sea of fans
Towards the stage
That’s where we jam
Rock star dreams
Hope we get noticed
Ride or die
I'll never lose focus
Onto the grave
With youthful angst
I see no change
Just copy and paste
Every day that goes by
You'll never see again
Life's too short
It comes from within
The strength you need
To overcome a loss
Will our paths intersect
On a crisscross
can't be random
It was meant to be
Time to rebuild
And clean the debris
Of a broken soul
That was shut down
A thousand heartbreaks
Left in a small town
The disease, the decline
And wasted time
But I'm better now
And feeling fine
shed no tears
And cry your fears
things you learn
Throughout the years
Surfin the net
I see you in the crowd
Screaming my name
Man, oh so loud
Ride that wave
In a sea of fans
Towards the stage
That’s where we jam
Rock star dreams
Hope we get noticed
Ride or die
I'll never lose focus
Onto the grave
With youthful angst
I see no change
Just copy and paste
Closed for good
I'm out-of-service
Never open up
Can't find my purpose
Anxiety creeps
I'm getting nervous
We've only begun
To scratch the surface
When things are no more
Where do you go?
Can only find peace
At a local show
Escape reality
Only for the moment
Society, the bitch
And lethal opponent
Judged by your looks
And the way you dress
Don’t give in
To their ways and stress
As death approaches
In this game of chess
Make wise moves
To find success
Surfin the net
I see you in the crowd
Screaming my name
Man, oh so loud
Ride that wave
In a sea of fans
Towards the stage
That’s where we jam
Rock star dreams
Hope we get noticed
Ride or die
I'll never lose focus
Onto the grave
With youthful angst
I see no change
Just copy and paste

Hope

(Something you never lose
No matter the circumstance
It always comes around
Whether fate or by chance
walk the line
Balanced high on a tightrope
can't break the unbreakable
This is called hope) x2
Had to learn the hard way
Not everyone's a lover
Better open up
Don’t judge a book by the cover
You'll be amazed
At the things you discover
It'll relieve the pain
And help you recover
Can't rain all the time
But it has now for months
Will it go away
it's happened more than once
I hear it in my dreams
Loud and deep, the devil grunts
But the strength within my soul
Is my counterpunch
Too many fails though
They laugh when I botch
As they count down my days
On their wristwatch
The fateful time and clock
Is something I can't dodge
But hope remains in me
As the hate I dislodge
(Something you never lose
No matter the circumstance
It always comes around
Whether fate or by chance
walk the line
Balanced high on a tightrope
can't break the unbreakable
This is called hope) x2
In these dark days
I refuse to be ignored
The never ending hour
I once was adored
With love and friends
And memories restored
To be on top
Is what I'm working toward
So I swing my sword
As I cut all ties
bright days ahead
Waiting for the sunrise
Headphones full blast
I used to fantasize
How cool would it be
To be known and recognized
Visualize this
in the back of the bus
Staring out the window
With lyrics to discuss
Music in my ears
No need to cuss
Never gave up hope
they'll appreciate us
(Something you never lose
No matter the circumstance
It always comes around
Whether fate or by chance
walk the line
Balanced high on a tightrope
can't break the unbreakable
This is called hope) x2
Trust issues cast shadows
It'll never brighten
The darkness in my soul
Will scare and frighten
Anyone who tries
To cheer me up and lighten
My mood only gets worse
As my chest tightens
I can't stand it
The wait's unbearable
All the things I've done
So bad and terrible
Karma catches up
Is my heart repairable
Based on your beliefs
They're all forgivable
Not everyone believes
In the spiritual
Sometimes over-the-line
And hypocritical
Makes no sense
In a sense lyrical
Hope is all we have
In lines satirical
(Something you never lose
No matter the circumstance
It always comes around
Whether fate or by chance
walk the line
Balanced high on a tightrope
can't break the unbreakable
This is called hope) x2

Rain or Shine
04:23

(We do what we want
No matter the weather
Birds of a feather
Always stick together
Live life with the sun
can't stop our shine
When the rain comes
It'll be our time) x2
This is me
I remain unapologetic
Sorry not sorry
Serenade so poetic
Gotta keep it moving
My ways so kinetic
In a mind so uncontrolled
And frenetic
Wild and free
And full of energy
Nothing can touch the soul
like a memory
Onto the days
When we're old and elderly
Decline to disorder
With random entropy
I dread that day
But I remain defiant
A sore subject
Like I woke a sleeping giant
Who could sleep
With all this excitement
You only live once
One chance to triumph
(We do what we want
No matter the weather
Birds of a feather
Always stick together
Live life with the sun
can't stop our shine
When the rain comes
It'll be our time) x2
nerve wears thin
Where is my peace of mind
It was left with my heart
Somewhere far behind
It's heartbreak
And insanity combined
You gotta push through
Never know what you'll find
Of all the things
That piss me off
You calm me down
With a touch so soft
It'll be alright
No more bedtime issues
I feel no pain or sadness
When I kiss you
The world's ours to take
With no apologies
We're gonna do it anyway
Against their policies
Public outcasts
We are the oddities
With unique features
And rebel qualities
(We do what we want
No matter the weather
Birds of a feather
Always stick together
Live life with the sun
can't stop our shine
When the rain comes
It'll be our time) x2
The worst of times
Can't bring us down
The best of times
Were shared in this town
That I've called home
For so many years
Don’t you know
We become what we fear
These thoughts of you
make me wanna leave
Never thought you'd be the one
To trick and deceive
Guess I deserved it
The treats you'll receive
Under your spell
On a cold hallow's eve
I'm so torn
Don’t know which way to go
No matter how bad it is
I learned long ago
Your attitude determines
Where you wanna go
So keep your head up
And get ready for the show
(We do what we want
No matter the weather
Birds of a feather
Always stick together
Live life with the sun
can't stop our shine
When the rain comes
It'll be our time) x2

(Look at her
She's so promiscuous
Revels in her looks
And sexy influence
touch so hot
We're close to the fire
Burn with her
What's left to inspire) x2
Influence
With poetic justice
Raisin hell
And causing a ruckus
Blinded by lust
And lips so luscious
I'll be your duke
If you be my duchess
torch my heart
Burn it to ashes
Can't get over you
And your eye lashes
Pierce my cheek
With hot flashes
Make me sweat
my body crashes
Into the scene
That's alive and well
Played me once
I'll see you in hell
Nothing stronger
Than the sense of smell
You helped me breathe
And come outta my shell
(Look at her
She's so promiscuous
Revels in her looks
And sexy influence
touch so hot
We're close to the fire
Burn with her
What's left to inspire) x2
Inspire
Coming through in the clutch
Did you hear me
did I say it too much
Leaning on you
A supportive crutch
No one is perfect
Who is a nonesuch
Bit the hand that feeds
Need I say more
Finally on my own
To live and explore
get down with me
On the dance floor
Banging our heads
At Warped tour '04
Can't be scared
To be hated or dissed
Passing the torch
With a flaming assist
shoot the j
With a flick of the wrist
Nothin but net
You just made the list
(Look at her
She's so promiscuous
Revels in her looks
And sexy influence
touch so hot
We're close to the fire
Burn with her
What's left to inspire) x2
What will inspire
The next generation
Influence the world
Without hesitation
The fall of man
Can't be our destination
waiting for change
And the next incarnation
Destined to bleed
Our work speaks volumes
Turn it to eleven
knock down the columns
That hold them high
While we jam our tunes
Stick it to the man
In our ill costumes
You'll know when it happens
Have we gone too far
Trapped like fireflies
Our hearts in a jar
Catch us with scars
But you know we're too quick
Influence and inspire
The lonely homesick
(Look at her
She's so promiscuous
Revels in her looks
And sexy influence

Goin' Down
03:54

(Love it when she goes down
Spinning round and round
Lost in the underground
Dead and hell-bound
Love it when she goes down
Spinning round and round
Screams so loud
While never making a sound) x2
Lip pierced with colored hair
And ball in tongue
She's my favorite type of girl
When I was young
A punker smoking cigs
Probably with a black lung
Didn't care though
Knew we were both scum
She's the only one
To give me balance
when she displayed
Those in bed talents
Healed my mind
And dropped all my bad habits
Back in the game
And solving mathematics
A 50-50 chance
You win or lose
I like those odds
Who could refuse
Yes or no
Can't wait for the news
Is she the one
Or will she misuse
(Love it when she goes down
Spinning round and round
Lost in the underground
Dead and hell-bound
Love it when she goes down
Spinning round and round
Screams so loud
While never making a sound) x2
She's so hot
No, she's off the chain
Like my cousin said
I'll try to explain
works it so hard
While using her brain
Can't help myself
It's hard to maintain
She drives me crazy
But in a good way
Makes me feel myself
Every single day
I try to stay calm
And try to downplay
My excitement
When she comes my way
gave it away
When she bit my finger
She's done this before
She ain't no beginner
Running with the devil
And down with the sinners
Halo with horns
I've found a winner
(Love it when she goes down
Spinning round and round
Lost in the underground
Dead and hell-bound
Love it when she goes down
Spinning round and round
Screams so loud
While never making a sound) x2
Why am I still here
Down to take a road trip
Or fly high in the sky
On a spaceship
To the moon and back
This is a courtship
To the one I love
That helps me get a grip
On my reality
I have to be courageous
Is it career suicide
When it's too outrageous
I remain shameless
Girls that are flirtatious
Another big word
Was I too ostentatious
Vulgar to you
But funny to me
What happened to the days
When we lived carefree
To touch you
Feels like a razorblade
Cutting into my skin
The pain of love portrayed
(Love it when she goes down
Spinning round and round
Lost in the underground
Dead and hell-bound
Love it when she goes down
Spinning round and round
Screams so loud
While never making a sound) x2

Enemies

(You never wanted me to see
You're the enemy
Enemies all around
Nobody is for me
Thought you were on my side
Apparently not
If I see you again
You gone get got) x2
Bow down to no one
And resist the system
Not everyone is for you
And your mission
Nemesis in disguise
Takes your position
Stand up for yourself
Cause they thrive in your condition
Foes and villains
And women are killers too
beware who you fall for
Just my point of view
Attracted to her smile
Wickedness shows through
Her smoking body
With all those tattoos
They condemn me
Through all my vices
With their nose stuck
in all those devices
Just give in
Who will pay those prices
We're losing our minds
And headed for a crisis
(You never wanted me to see
You're the enemy
Enemies all around
Nobody is for me
Thought you were on my side
Apparently not
If I see you again
You gone get got) x2
So I can't join you
I'll feel like a tool
In their industry
Of what's hip and cool
Wasting days away
I should've stayed in school
And did my own thing
With plans to overrule
That's how they like it
Bow down to your highness
The whole world against me
And my niceness
Nice guys finish last
Get over your shyness
Most of them
Are afraid and spineless
Let me live my life
Without you butting in
Can't even get ahead
Without you cutting in
Try to take me down
But I know you'll fail
Ain't it a bitch
When no one buys what you sell
(You never wanted me to see
You're the enemy
Enemies all around
Nobody is for me
Thought you were on my side
Apparently not
If I see you again
You gone get got) x2
Darkened black souls
The masters of betrayal
learn from mistakes
And I'll blaze that trail
You'll be so ashamed
Better tuck that tail
You never were the one
To wear that veil
I see
A wolf in sheep's clothing
Look into my eyes
This is fear and loathing
Thought you had me
And the thought of proposing
Makes me sick
As death is approaching
My heart is eroding
At the thought of all you fakes
I'll die one more time again
Before my heart breaks
I'll only say this once
I don’t need twenty takes
You'll never get the best of me
my dreams at stake
(You never wanted me to see
You're the enemy
Enemies all around
Nobody is for me
Thought you were on my side
Apparently not
If I see you again

We reign in blood
Kill kill kill
We shoot the scud
Kill kill kill
Before the flood
Kill kill kill
Fail like a dud
Die die die
We crucify
Die die die
Come from the sky
Die die die
We deify

Do I hate everyone
Just wish they'd understand
Not cut from the same cloth
I'm my own strand
Addiction is the cause
And that I can't stand
I hate this fuckin world
And institutions have me banned
Can't take it anymore
I'm about to erupt
Violence is the answer
And I don’t give a fuck
Their system doesn't work for me
It's something to disrupt
Who really gives a shit
In land so corrupt
Let the buildings burn
And our hearts fuckin bleed
Take care of yourself
And others in need
Hope you feel shock
In these words you read
A ghost's monologue
As memories recede
(Kill kill kill
We reign in blood

Beware of the destruction
left in our wake
A night time ritual
Leads to an outbreak
To erase it all
With a dirty handshake
A contract of thieves
We'll never overtake
Haunted by the spirits
Of what I've become
Habitual line stepper
As the bombs come
Falling from the sky
We're gonna blow up
This is what happens
When you don’t show up
Caring about opinions of others
Is the nemesis
What's holding me back
To begin genesis
Every excuse to stay put
Is venomous
Stop holding me back
You fuckin supremacist
(Kill kill kill

Memorize
A broadcast with no interruption
Hypnotize
Narcissists planning reproduction
Advertise
The path and methods, destined to destruction
Paralyze
Our minds programmed for consumption
Trapped in the dungeon
Of our own self-thought
Wants and needs
Have my heart in a knot
Will I ever escape
For years I've fought
This room so dark and cold
I'm just an afterthought
Just another stat
Recorded in their book
Who cares about your life
and the toll it took
I'll tell you this, you're on your own
Judged by your look
So I stay to myself
In my sheltered nook
(Kill kill kill
We reign in blood
Kill kill kill
We shoot the scud

Lights Out, Pt. 2
04:05

(When lights go out
What will you see
When lights go out
Who will you be
Begging for someone
To believe me
To find the one
Who completes me) x2
Is it so easy
To be this dreamy
Rockin a beanie
Tagging with graffiti
Not too sleazy
Never getting sleepy
I see you over there
Looking good in your bikini
Cool like the other side
Of the pillow
Crying to myself
There goes a weeping willow
Feeling the poison
Of a black widow
Shot in my dream
By my hero
Did you hear
I never made a sound
As bullets filled my chest
Round by round
All by myself
The fear keeps me
Scared and alone
That's all I'll ever be
(When lights go out
What will you see
When lights go out
Who will you be
Begging for someone
To believe me
To find the one
Who completes me) x2
Overcome the fear
To live on my own
The fear to be seen
The fear to be known
The fear to talk to girls
The fear of what they'll think
Don’t associate with him
He sees a shrink
Perverted and nasty
He's a loose cannon
Pissed at the world
With reckless abandon
No family support
To fulfill his dreams
Wish they'd understand
His darkwave theme
Your ways make no sense
It's always follow the leader
You were my biggest fan
And supportive cheerleader
I can't see the future
I'm not a mind reader
Sorry I'm not the way you want
an over achiever
(When lights go out
What will you see
When lights go out
Who will you be
Begging for someone
To believe me
To find the one
Who completes me) x2
Let her go
What do you have to hide
Be your own person
And be your own guide
You have to take a stand
And pick your own side
Before it tears you apart
On the inside
shit I don't want
And shit I don't need
Getting into trouble
Only plants the seed
To her hateful words
And loathsome creed
Do you really think
Those were wicked deeds
I understand your concern
you're only being cautious
But you don't get it
And you're being obnoxious
It makes me sick
As I start to feel nauseous
Guess you'll never accept
thoughts in my subconscious
(When lights go out
What will you see
When lights go out
Who will you be
Begging for someone
To believe me
To find the one
Who completes me) x2

(Follow your dreams
Do what makes you happy
Is there any meaning
I've never been savvy
Am I too cryptic
Red as the blood line
Black the night sky
I'm the star that doesn't shine) x2
You can't get what you want
In a mind so narrow
Singing songs of love
Like a pretty little sparrow
Overthrow the king
He's a spoiled little pharaoh
And cupid didn’t miss
When he shot his arrow
Straight through my heart
It's as cold as dark matter
Wish he would've missed
So my heart didn't shatter
Never thought I'd perform
And be a sad rapper
Humbled by the fans
Around the stage, they gather
Getting close
But don't count chicks before they hatch
Knock the 8 ball in the pocket
And hope you don't scratch
Falling for these models
I finally met my match
online obsession
Love has me so attached
(Follow your dreams
Do what makes you happy
Is there any meaning
I've never been savvy
Am I too cryptic
Red as the blood line
Black the night sky
I'm the star that doesn't shine) x2
Is it so weird
I'm in love, but never met
A cheap fantasy
To wanna make you sweat
My tears on tape recorded
On a VCR cassette
Publicly displayed
on a retro TV set
Know this, when I say
That I'm no angel
If no one's listening
Then you stayed faithful
Were you having fun
In your days, so painful
Learning to live
And what to bring to the table
Don’t you fuckin quit
I'm getting excited
The flame burns within
So bright and ignited
Do your thing, I got your back
As we stand united
Dream big and high
And don’t become shortsighted
(Follow your dreams
Do what makes you happy
Is there any meaning
I've never been savvy
Am I too cryptic
Red as the blood line
Black the night sky
I'm the star that doesn't shine) x2
A deadbeat artist
Is what they’ve called me
Not going anywhere
With his artistry
What will it take
For me to leave
Why am I still here
For the fear they'll grieve
You uphold an image
Of clean and good morals
For the sake of the family
Please, just keep it formal
Why are you this way
can't you just be normal
Sorry, this is me
I can't take it when we quarrel
You make it so hard
For me to show my face in public
I'm my own man
Sorry, you're gonna have to stomach
My own decisions
That make you so ashamed
I'm grown up now
you’ve seen it yourself through that window pane
(Follow your dreams
Do what makes you happy
Is there any meaning
I've never been savvy
Am I too cryptic
Red as the blood line
Black the night sky
I'm the star that doesn't shine) x2

3 Eyes in the Sky

(Judge, watch, and damn
3 eyes in the sky
Why do we exist
Nobody knows why
Burn, watch, and save
3 eyes in the sky
Why do we exist
Nobody knows why) x2
The good, bad
And the in between
The ones who listen
And live squeaky clean
Always obey
And buy the routine
Saints among sinners
They walk with Constantine
Through the gates of hell
To promote their cause
But not everyone believes
In god and Santa clause
you'll burn
If you forsake the ten laws
Their warning of misfaith
Always gets an applause
From the faithful clergy
The men and women of god
Believe in divinity
And religion aboard
Shunning heresy
And denouncing the odd
Claiming blasphemy
With other gods a fraud
(Judge, watch, and damn
3 eyes in the sky
Why do we exist
Nobody knows why
Burn, watch, and save
3 eyes in the sky
Why do we exist
Nobody knows why) x2
Not too extreme
Most of us are in the middle
With contrary beliefs
To this holy riddle
Will it cause uproar
Creating a ripple
In their massive following
Little by little
We question our thoughts
And bias history
Unravel truth with science
Unlock the mystery
Is there a god
Or is it trickery
Getting us to believe
sacred simplicity
Don’t think our neutral ways
Are the problem
When you're forcing ways
That push us to the bottom
You claim to save
And care for the fallen
But where were you
When the grave came calling
(Judge, watch, and damn
3 eyes in the sky
Why do we exist
Nobody knows why
Burn, watch, and save
3 eyes in the sky
Why do we exist
Nobody knows why) x2
Burn the book
And choose to be bad
As their conforming ways
Drive you mad
Use these words I write
As a launch pad
To break the mold
And destroy the ironclad
Where will you be
As they're glorifying
Never to save
The dead and dying
No one is coming
Nor will be rising
Into the heavens
Leave you mystifying
In my darkened soul
Brave and nocturnal
The flame within
forever and eternal
You'll never see it
Like words in my journal
Join me in hell
With his majesty infernal
(Judge, watch, and damn
3 eyes in the sky
Why do we exist
Nobody knows why
Burn, watch, and save
3 eyes in the sky
Why do we exist
Nobody knows why) x2

A Dime A Dozen

(hate you so much
You're so common and basic
You're a dime a dozen
All with the same faces
On a path of self-destruction
Always getting wasted
You have to save yourself
In this wonderland oasis) x2
Hate you so much
You're so common and basic
No one to blame but yourself
So just face it
Look in the mirror
And you'll see why you're hated
You grew cold
Claiming I'm became complacent
Constantly in hot water
I tried to help you out
But you just used me
Looking for a handout
Thought you were sincere
And honest as a scout
But couldn’t see past the lies
Of your fallout
I see it coming now
I have their sight
From a mile away
Burning in dreams so bright
An elite tradition
Will I ever reach their height
In a place so common
They've earned my despite
(hate you so much
You're so common and basic
You're a dime a dozen
All with the same faces
On a path of self-destruction
Always getting wasted
You have to save yourself
In this wonderland oasis) x2
All the same faces
You're a dime a dozen
Everywhere I'm not
Hear the rain clouds coming
You'll know when it ends
All of a sudden
The storm is here
To end the discussion
Better tap out
When I get a grip
On your scrawny neck
And kill your ego trip
Too sexist for you
I know you like the whip
Lose all color
And kiss your blue lips
Goodbye to you
As I take your life
With cuts so deep
How you would entice
Tempt me with pleasure
Oh how I paid the price
Aimed for my heart
With precision so precise
(hate you so much
You're so common and basic
You're a dime a dozen
All with the same faces
On a path of self-destruction
Always getting wasted
You have to save yourself
In this wonderland oasis) x2
Kill me twice
A soul ripped and torn
Between a choice
be alive and reborn
Remember it all started
With a life unborn
So rebel with me
And throw up your horns
Can't hide it anymore
I see your fangs
Do you believe in god
Or the big bang
Theory denies the word
In this sarcastic slang
But karma always comes around
Like a boomerang
Will you catch it
Always remains the question
Could never handle a loss
With uncontrolled aggression
Not looking for a hit
This is my expression
To handle getting over you
This is my confession
(hate you so much
You're so common and basic
You're a dime a dozen
All with the same faces
On a path of self-destruction
Always getting wasted
You have to save yourself
In this wonderland oasis) x2
