Signs
You can smell the fear in here
As they try to cut you down
Can’t get away from this
They will try to shut this out
Are we abandoned yet?
They will never know
When the signs are crystal clear
You can hear it calling out

If there’s nothing left to lose
If the future feels so far from here
Did we burnout far too soon?
Burn away

As these voices break and tear
And the words come screaming out
Can’t throw the blame at this
They will try and run you out
Are we abandoned here?
They will never know
When the signs are crystal clear
You can hear it calling now

If there’s nothing left to lose
If the future feels so far from here
Did we burnout far too soon?
Did you see this coming miles away?
Did we fail this like you knew?
Burn away

Can we just stop falling?
Can we hold this line forever?
Or burn out like before?
If we face this end we never fall

If there’s nothing left to lose
If the future feels so far from here
Did we burnout far too soon?
Did you see this coming miles away?
Did we fail this like you knew?
Burn away

What Are You Waiting For
Break through the lines
While we all take to the skies
Know that we can’t stray from the lights
Watch wide awake, we head out
To this fight with nothing more than what we came with
Nothing more than what we had

All of the times that we waited for
Built up the chance to define us
Wait for the time to align and
Slow down for nothing

Close to the wires
So close that this desires in disguise
And while the fire it rips through inside
Watch wide awake, we head out
To this fight with nothing more than what we came with
Nothing more than what we had

All of the times that we waited for
Built up the chance to define us
Wait for the time to align and
Slow down for nothing
All of the times that we waited for
Look to the skies for a sign and
Wait for the call to collide and
Slow down for nothing

It’s time to bend or break now

To chase this, is to crave this
It’s more than the call as the pain hits home
Won’t let these beggars choose our fate
As they waste it, we embrace this
It’s more than us all as the pain hits home
Can’t let these beggars choose our fate

All of the times that we waited for
Built up the chance to define us
Wait for the time to align and
Slow down for nothing
All of the times that we waited for
Look to the skies for a sign and
Wait for the call to collide and
Slow Down For Nothing

Clarity
Question these thoughts
I’ve never done before
Clarity is all I ever wanted
Lost this train of thought
Tracks been down before
I swear you never said you really want this

Kill these thoughts or fall apart

I guess that we’re still holding on to what we had
I guess that we’re still holding on to what we had

A conscious stream of thought
Without design or verse
This clarity is all I ever wanted
From the bridges that lay torn
To the lines crossed and re-drawn
From the front and the fault
To the final call

Kill these thoughts or fall apart

I guess that we’re still holding on to what we had
I guess that we’re still holding on to what we had

Back down for nothing
Break in the end
Change this direction underneath us
Scratch at the surface
Stab at the core again

I guess that we’re still holding on to what we had
I guess that we’re still holding on to what we had

Call To Disarm
Hear the call, call it surrender
Raise a flag and try to defend
All they saw, all that they paid for
In the end all that they lived for
Still we swear, on all that we hope for
Past this time, wasting away
Cut this short, ignite a signal
And were left always defending

Bring this down, take it back
Cut this from under my skin
The memories that we’ll never have
Are all made from where we begin
Face this up, play this down
Cut this from under my skin
You can’t miss what you never had
And now that will never begin

As we fall, fall at the last line
Stay the same, heels in the ground
Cast a thought, how do we end this?
Hold the blame, always remember
We fight this one, are you with me?
This calls still strong, can you hear it?
We face this fear of fading
We’re only feeling defeated again

Rise to this call to disarm
Take what you think you deserve
Rise to this call to disarm
Free from what we’ve now become

No-one ever saves you
No-one ever takes your place
All that’s safe is left behind
They won’t ever praise you
They won’t ever take your fall
Ride this low before this

I can’t bring this down, take it back
Cut this from under my skin
The memories that we’ll never have
Are all made from where we begin
Face this up, play this down
Cut this from under my skin
You can’t miss what you never had
And now that will never begin……Tear down these walls just to defend.
Back to Top

Conflict In Memory
Here at the edge
They shoot down our hope in blame
All along, faith that we placed betrayed
And we’re to defy, live out our fears again
Into the fray once more we find our way
All in a moment

To avoid complications
As we search for ourselves in vain
In desperation
Reaching for something that won’t go away
They incite confrontation
To distract from our idle hands
With no desolation
Aim high or look down
The fallout will slow this decay

As we bring this on ourselves
Do you remember, do you remember everything?
As we force this to the edge
Do you remember, do you remember anything?

Liberate all your stations
To defect from this righteous path
In deprivation
When fear leads to anger and anger to hate
No divine lined horizon
To enlighten the darkest night
With no consolation
Strike at the system
Resisting and forced into change

As we bring this on ourselves
Do you remember, do you remember everything?
As we force this to the edge
Do you remember, do you remember anything?

Raised from the flames and we build again
Try to delay but we can’t replace
Back to the message
And onto the edge once again
Only this time it ends

As we bring this on ourselves
Do you remember, do you remember everything?
As we force this to the edge
Do you remember, do you remember anything?

“Scratches & Scars”

Calculate This Risk
Escape into a world from an unfamiliar place
Going down the only road never listening what we’ve been told
Estranged from all these voices screaming all the time
Further from your hopes and dreams, nothings ever what it seems

Falling out of time, we are falling out of line
We are falling out of time we are falling

Fade into a blur from the fear you used to face
Only now you’ll never know and you’re losing sight of this control
Rely on all your vices changing all the time
Grand delusions, broken schemes, nothings ever what it seems

Falling out of time, we are falling out of line.
We are falling out of time we are falling

Live for these moments they don’t even notice
Hide in the shadows cast by our battles
Past this attention divine with a vengeance of standing for nothing
We all have demons to burn

Falling out of time, we are falling out of line
We are falling out of time we are falling

Headgames
Get away, feel unsafe fall to pieces
Now you hold it in your eyes
Numb the pain, Keep the faith stay deceited
Now we know what we sold now it’s all gone wrong.
Where did we go?

In a place to deny, I deface and defy
Cutting you from my mind, and we’re falling

If there’s another way to break me through this
Will I ever find it yet?
Make my own luck and you make excuses
Burn this one down too it’s all in your head

Hide away, stay awake feel to suffer
Now you hold it in your eyes
Inner blame, in a way; hidden meanings
Now it’s all gone wrong, where did we go?

In a place to deny, I deface and defy
Cutting you from my mind, and we’re falling

If there’s another way to break me through this,
Will I ever find it yet?
Make my own luck and you make excuses
Burn this one down too.

Just give me something to put this away,
Your face is expressionless only means one thing.
To be certain when nothing is said just give me something.
It’s all in your head.
And now we’re stuck here burnt in this memory,
a place we know we can’t get back from.
And now we’re stuck here trapped in this disbelief,
A place we know there’s no way back from here.

If there’s another way to break me through this,
Will I ever find it yet?
Make my own luck and you make excuses
Burn this one down too.

Barriers
Time waits for no man
Sent here to break you down
Can’t wait for closure, sick of it all

These tracks we trace they never lead home now
Just let go while the memories cold
They’re fast asleep while we’re stained with thoughts
Of all we know is we’ll never resort to their way of feeling distain

Feeding the game again
We’re feeling the way
Free from the pain again

Time waits for no man
Sent here to break you down
Can’t wait for closure, sick of it all

I believe in, chase this feeling I will get this out
Time will take this, from this clenched fist
I will get you out these barriers

There’s just disgrace where there’s your mass distraction
Too far away, out of reach, call to action
Wide awake we collide with your recall
Never thought you’d be bought
Now it’s come to this way of feeling distain

Feeding the game again
We’re feeling the way
Free from the pain again

Time waits for no man
Sent here to break you down
Can’t wait for closure, sick of it all

I believe in, chase this feeling I will get this out
Time will take this, from this clenched fist
I will get you out

I believe in, chase this feeling I will get this out
Time will take this, from this clenched fist
I will get you out

Sick of it all

Low
A call out to deny this failure to disguise
Of false hearts and nervous lies
This comedown’s another sign
Afraid for a former soul, a life that we used to know
You play dead

Words come over again. Low
Your words come over again

Face down in shame tonight
You can’t hold a line of eyes
With Blame thrown and fights with fire
This time is called tonight
Caught out, you missed the truth
It turns out you always knew
You play dead

Words come over again. Low
Your words come over again

A call out to deny this failure to disguise
Of false hearts and nervous lies
This comedown’s another sign
You play dead

Words come over again. Low
Your words come over again

Break The habit
It’s finally over it’s something real
Break the habit no time to heal
Fortune is planning to bring you down
Falling forward or falling short?
Lose this cycle and find this cure
Fortune is planning to bring you down

(Became the things we never see again
The cause, and now we’re standing tall
The thought of losing all control
And we won’t fall)

One last time just don’t let go
It’s still a long way down from here tonight
When all this is hopeless and frantic

Your hands feel forced when these thoughts feel torn
Erase this fall and the sirens call
Fortune is planning to bring you down
Built to spill or your built to last
Stick to this future or kill the past
Fortune is planning to bring you down

One last time just don’t let go
It’s still a long way down from here tonight
When all this is hopeless and frantic
What we are they’ll never know
Given the time to take them
I’ll pretend it’s too late to fold
They’ll never know
Just don’t let go

We search for something,
We fight the thoughts that lead away
It counts for nothing in their eyes
We kill the pain

We’re defined by these designs

Rotton In Denmark
The chances that we take
From the messes that we make
All these promises of being tomorrow
Your resolution

Where is your protest now?
As you’re lying helpless on a feeling
The more you say the less I believe you
The more you don’t, I don’t wanna hear it

Falling for something that was not there
Falling for something that was not real

The chances that we take
From the messes that we make
All these promises of being tomorrow
Your resolution

Where is this problem now?
Why do you force it if you can’t face it?
The more you say the less I believe you
The more you don’t, I don’t wanna hear it

Falling for something that was not there
Falling for something that was not real

The chances that we take
From the messes that we make
All these promises of being tomorrow
Your resolution
The vacant looks you fake in the wake of this mistake
All these broken lies you leave behind you
Your resolution

Your resolution is no solution

I won’t bring us back down
In silence before its cold and I know I could never
I can’t take us back to something
Nothings new now I know I could never

The chances that we take
From the messes that we make
All these promises of being tomorrow
Your resolution

Fiction Burn
Reset yourself and clear this air
You saw it’s gone too far
This conscience scar, you crossed the line
You lost this one, you lost that fire

Knock me out eradicate this doubt inside myself tonight
I’ll find a way, I’ll find a way to make it

Face up the facts ignore the truth
Detach yourself from this
Create your proof in your defence
This fiction burns with evidence

Knock me out eradicate this doubt inside myself tonight
I’ll find a way, I’ll find a way to make it
Save yourself, just turn your back on everything by failing us
I’ll find a way, I’ll find a way to make it

All that’s left of this is what you make of it
There’s time to change this so just let this in
Reset yourself and clear this air, you saw it’s all I ever had

Knock me out eradicate this doubt inside myself tonight
I’ll find a way, I’ll find a way to make it.

Save yourself by failing us.

Dark Matter
Blood, sweat and fear make this whole thing alive
Count all your allies on one hand
Self preservation is one thing to save
Just don’t rely, just don’t rely on them for nothing is real
Your truth is your word and you don’t even know how
And which one to trust, jump these conclusions
And we will get you out

(Standing at the edge of ourselves)We are the rage
(Can’t fight the final discord) They bend to break us
(Whose saving us?) Back where we belong
(Standing at the edge of ourselves) We’re all the same
(Can’t fight the final discord) Whose sent to save us ?
(Whose saving us?) Back where we belong.

Can’t face this fear when there’s nothing to say
Find all directions leading the same way as the others
We suffer the same they can’t understand
They won’t understand and. So when this whole thing is done
When words have no meaning and actions have no words
For the things that were said,
Your absence is louder than anything at all.

(Standing at the edge of ourselves)We are the rage
(Can’t fight the final discord) They bend to break us
(Whose saving us?) Back where we belong
(Standing at the edge of ourselves) We’re all the same
(Can’t fight the final discord) Whose sent to save us?
(Whose saving us?) Back where we belong

Now we’ve found out, Re-define

(Standing at the edge of ourselves)We are the rage
(Can’t fight the final discord) They bend to break us
(Whose saving us?) Back where we belong
(Standing at the edge of ourselves) We’re all the same
(Can’t fight the final discord) Whose sent to save us?
(Whose saving us?) Back where we belong
Through all these words and even scars

Crosswires
Crosshairs phased and open fire
Losing track and crossing wires
Aim for you
Facing forward all the time
We bite down you open wide
Hating you will never find a place inside that you deny

Spill your guts now everytime
Questions fired you lose your spine
It’s just like you to close your eyes and open fire
Ricochets, blood shot eyes
Faith in you, has all but died
Blame falls through forever, you’re out of time

Strike me down and I’ll become even stronger than you
Never thought that I could ever
Become more than not enough
You took this time from me, I’ll take this out on you whatever

Open seasons, open skies
Warning shots fall on dead eyes
Sights on you and
Your defending all the time, This offence under fire
Watching you blur the lines
Bought into another, you’re wasting time

Strike me down and I’ll become even stronger than you
Never thought that I could ever
Become more than not enough
You took this time from me, I’ll take this out on you and after
Everything is said everything is done
Now we know it all means nothing
Everything is said, everything is done
Now we know it all means nothing

The lies that we all live under, I won’t let this go

Strike me down and I’ll become even stronger than you
Never thought that I could ever
Become more than not enough
You took this time from me, I’ll take this out on you and after
Everything is said everything is done
Now we know it all means nothing
Everything is said, everything is done
Now we know it all means nothing

Made To Waste
Why walk away when I can break your silence
Why hold my tongue when I can see right through your words
Don’t hold your breath ‘cos I won’t be there for you
When karma hits you and you’re left to runaway

What’s worth nothing in your eyes, not enough too

We’re sick of the silence as we always wait forever
As we slowly drift away
Taking it back to all we know just to notice
It’s always hard to take, we’re all made to waste

I won’t turn my back ‘cos I know I can’t trust you,
I’m watching everyone and everything you do.
The time has called for you to take your side now,
When no-one listens, and you’re left to runaway.

We’re sick of the silence as we always wait forever
As we slowly drift away,
Taking it back to all we know just to notice
It’s always hard to take, we’re all made to waste.

We’re sick of the silence as we always wait forever
As we slowly drift away.
Now it’s over cut this open,
Had what I miss, just get through this,
As this hurt burns with the knife turns
We just waste it all.
Back to Top

Slow Burn
Don’t wait for hate to decipher these messages
Just look for signs that will guide you
And I know that all along, alone we fall

Wait for this moment to fade into nothing
All along alone we fall
Wait for this moment to fade into nothing

Will we ever learn? Still the fires slow burn
Will we ever know? Still the fires slow burn

Hold this embrace in the face of these enemies
Just hold this line and defy them
‘Cos you know that all along, alone we fall
Wait for this moment to fade into nothing
All along, alone we fall
Wait for this moment to fade into nothing

Will we ever learn? Still the fires slow burn
Will we ever know? Still the fires slow burn
Will we ever learn? Still the fires slow burn
Will we ever know? Still the fires slow burn

Lives born from ashes are just blown away
Last time we came home with nothing
Except ourselves to blame
Another recovery

Will we ever learn? Still the fires slow burn
Will we ever know? Still the fires slow burn
When the embers die, the more that meets your eye
Lose grip of what we hold
Will we ever learn?

Thirty Seconds Too Far
Searching, Hiding the meaning
Reason, trying to bleed the ego
Never believe us
Freedom, we’re gonna be failing now

(are we trading justice
to find the truth)

It’s alright if you never believe us
It’s alright if you never can see
It’s alright to fall on your knees
and it’s alright if you never believe us

“No Association”

Catch 22
In their eyes I see promises of the last time that they tried
Still they cry at the thought of going through it all again
(Lost all the things you know)
Through the lies and hope and lust and faith and sin
(This is your time to show)
The less they say the more you have to

Can’t go round
Can’t go under
For all this time
Makes me wonder

In their eyes they’re still blind to this altered state of mind
All they find is the thought of going through it all again
(Lost all the things you know)
Through the lies and hope and lust and faith and sin
(This is your time to show)
The less they say the more you have to

Can’t go round
Can’t go under
For all this time
Makes me wonder
We won’t waste this
Back to Top

Half Cut
Walk out alone again
(Thought what I never found here)
Forced hopes and dreams they cut you thin
(How did I ever get here?)
Fake praise it rains on your parade when you are half cut
(In process)

Once you make up the difference between what you want
And what you think you need
Back to Top

Vessel
This feels so hollow
These pills to swallow
You’ll never get my empathy
You’ll never get what you want from this
These swords you fall on
These rules you call for
You’ll never get this honesty
You’ll never get what you want from this

Let it go
(Just once I’ll say, don’t throw away)

Headstrong just to seize the day
Give me one more day to make it all gone
Headstrong just to seize the day
Give me one more day to make it

Fall into places
Round empty spaces
You’ll never get my empathy
You’ll never get what you want from this
Forced into rages
On these blank pages
I’ll never get this honesty
You’ll never get what you want from this

Let it go
(Just once I’ll say, don’t throw away)

Headstrong just to seize the day
Give me one more day to make it all gone
Headstrong just to seize the day
Give me one more day to make it all gone

Utopia
Break this fall down here from heaven
Lie and wait here for you hell
when prayers dont answer what you ask for
Forced to saving someone else
(Another day, I can’t wait, lose my grip as she slips away)

Getting harder to speak
Getting further to reach
Visions blur our belief in utopia

Break this fall down here from heaven
Lie and wait here for you hell
when friends dont answer what you ask for
Forced to saving someone else
(Another day, I can’t wait, lose my grip as she slips away)

Getting harder to speak
Getting further to reach
Visions blur our belief in utopia
Falling faster awake
Heartache will shoulder the blame
For you straight up believe in you
Believe in me

Getting harder to speak
Getting further to reach
Visions blur our belief in utopia
Back to Top

No Association
So this has come around
Faces are changing everyday
Turning night into the ground
Chasing a world they couldn’t change
(For all the chances that they save)
Are we burning up? Do we fade away?
(For all the plans they had to break)
To end this all for nothing

(All in all we lived to see that its over)
I guess that we’re falling closer

So lost under the sound
Waiting for something just to change
Fading night into the crowd
Hating a world they couldn’t face
(For all the chances that they save)
Are we burning up? Do we fade away?
(For all the plans they had to break)
To end this all for nothing

Fall closer
Just fall closer
We fall closer to this

(All in all we lived to see that its over)
I guess that we’re falling closer

Are we burning out? Do we fade away?

In hope and lust, for losing touch
In faith thats lost, for in this we trust
To ends begun, to battles won
Our waiting call, for unless we fall

(All in all we lived to see that its over)
I guess that we’re falling closer
Back to Top

Shikata
See destruction in their eyes
Sleeping under saddened skies
‘Cos there’s paninc in the air
Still society just stares
Everyday her eyes they burn
Past the point of no return
Hiding guilty in the trap
Now there’s no way turning

(Hard to say, turn away, I can’t face another day, learn to pray)
There’s no way out alive

Presecence scared by prejudice
All the names they seem to fit
Under pressure in disguise
Losing freedom victimised
Taste the smell of burning skin
Fell the pressure sinking in
Ingnorance is unprepared
Now the last resort is to beg

(Hard to say, turn away, I can’t face another day, learn to pray)
There’s no way out alive
