Intro 01:44
2.
We try to separate Ourselves from what we’ve made We live an honest life We can’t go back in time We try to justify Our self-entrapping style We’re born with boundless minds We feel the stress (To my grave) So lie through your teeth And lead me direct to my grave Lie like you mean it (Where in the world did they get that idea?) Work ’til you die (Where in the world did they get that idea?) Waste your whole life Translucent lies Pollute our minds With ceilings so low Where’s the reason to fly? So lie through your teeth And lead me direct to my grave (Where in the world did they get that idea?) Work ’til you die (Where in the world did they get that idea?) Waste your whole life And I know that greed’s insatiable It drives them every day But true wealth is unobtainable If you choose to live this way I’ll never take this from you I’ll never choose for life to end I’ll never take this from you I’ll never choose for life to end I’ve seen my life flash through my mind ‘Fore I was 21 years old I’ve seen it all through my father’s eyes I caught a glimpse of his lonely world And I’m not saying that every path is right But I wish we’d keep each to their own Religion, finances, decisions, romances How vapid and hollow How trite, how mis-sold But who the hell are we to save them from themselves? (Where in the world did they get that idea?) Work ’til you die (Where in the world did they get that idea?) Waste your whole life And I know that greed’s insatiable It drives them every day But true wealth is unobtainable If you choose to live this way
3.
Sane 03:34
A promise to uphold Your actions feel controlled When loyalty’s rewarded What’s the point in being bold You’re nothing but your word Your own desires unheard This self-inflicted obligation Moulds you with the herd This self-inflicted creation (It calls your name) This kind of life won’t keep you sane Can we fix this world? So plagued by constant debt A shell, a silhouette Resigned to find excitement From some digital connect The apple of your eye Your way to justify A life without a purpose or a meaning Scream I’m not gonna take this anymore I’m not gonna take this anymore These meaningless obligations (They call your name) This kind of life won’t keep you sane Can we fix this world? Won’t keep you sane Can we fix this world? So if this is your only try Would you be unique Or will these burdens make you feel small? And if you had to say goodbye To that familiar face Do you believe they’d love you at all? Love you at all Well it’s time to break these chains Well it’s time to break these chains This kind of life won’t keep you sane Can we fix this world?
4.
Anchored 03:38
From source to sandy shore This river runs its course With a path of least resistance It’s unstoppable Washed up along the coast My doubts won’t let me float No path lain out before me I’m suffering As the waves wash over me I’ll know The tides won’t bring me closer If I stay stubborn anchored in the ocean As the waves wash over me I’ll know The tides won’t bring me closer If I stay stubborn anchored to the ocean floor My world proceeds to turn My skin begins to burn This static sense of purpose Is consuming me Revive my fading dreams Turn every sail to wind Discard morose inflictions The scars marking me As the waves wash over me I’ll know The tides won’t bring me closer If I stay stubborn anchored in the ocean As the waves wash over me I’ll know The tides won’t bring me closer If I stay stubborn anchored to the ocean floor Your words sound In deaf ears I don’t want to hear you as I grow So I won’t be silent anymore So take back Those fake tears When did you ever care at all? I won’t be silent anymore As the waves wash over me I’ll know The tides won’t bring me closer If I stay stubborn anchored in the ocean As the waves wash over me I’ll know The tides won’t bring me closer If I stay stubborn anchored to the ocean floor Anchored to the ocean floor Anchored to the ocean floor
5.
Drifting 03:53
(I feel you drifting away) (x2) One step too far I’m in suffering So close to giving in oh So tell me I’m wrong Tell me I’m wrong You’ll never know What you mean to me Or what we could have been oh My weakness prolonged Weakness prolonged We sell our souls to the highest bid And we encounter more thieves than we know We sell our souls to the highest bid I feel you drifting away (These walls are only built up by ourselves) Drifting away (My heart rate set to rise then fall to hell) One more attempt At this purgery This sense of urgency oh This cleansing of mine Cleansing my mind One final step Try to turn away Try to turn away oh Or run back to fight To seize and ignite We sell our souls to the highest bid And we encounter more thieves than we know We sell our souls to the highest bid I feel you drifting away (These walls are only built up by ourselves) Drifting away (My heart rate set to rise then fall to hell) (This song’s for you) (x2) We sell our souls to the highest bid And we encounter more thieves than we know We sell our souls to the highest bid I feel you drifting away (These walls are only built up by ourselves) Drifting away (My heart rate set to rise then fall to hell) (This song’s for you)
6.
Do you ever feel The most rotten of feelings? As you drift away your lifetime Slow and circumspect Never undermine The weakness we draw on As we force ourselves to Never question what comes next For the pain we feel now And all that’s to come Denial won’t keep you safe This world of ashes can’t survive Now the Earth boils Fuming from your contempt As the waves loom angry Growing larger on the sky But it’s not too late To pin our eyes open Privilege and desolation Walking side by side For the pain we feel now And all that’s to come Denial won’t keep you safe For the life that you stole Is yours now to earn Your riches won’t keep you safe On the fall of this world You sat vapid cold Your ignorance keeps you chained This world of ashes can’t survive (Can’t take this back) The undeniable change The crippling droughts It’s now No shield for such sights The arctic ice melts This time With famine abound But hope to be found Can you find it? As dark days draw in As humankind dies Will you save it? For the pain we feel now And all that’s to come Denial won’t keep you safe For the life that you stole Is yours now to earn Your riches won’t keep you safe On the fall of this world You sat vapid cold Your ignorance keeps you chained Our world of ashes can’t survive (Can’t take this back) Our world will fall before your eyes
7.
Razor's Edge 04:35
These days Hurt more than they ever did With no hope Nothing left to inspire this And these chains They shackle to broken ground But this way Seems so closed off this time around My life Summarised into vacant words Is all I hear Against a background of sufferance And I’m torn Between the boy and the man in me And I’ve learned The middle ground is just apathy On this razor’s edge (x2) And I won’t lose sight Not one more time I know my dreams They’ll rule my life On this razor’s edge (x2) One chance To escape from the tunnel’s eye As it chokes Making pinholes of distant lights And I’m scared Of the branch that I yearn to ascend But I know That I’ll never grow to love the stem On this razor’s edge (x2) And I won’t lose sight Not one more time I know my dreams They’ll rule my life On this razor’s edge (x2) Life should not be a series of things that you do because they all aim directly at one ultimate goal. No, life should be a series of things that you do at that time in your life, at that moment, because you enjoy them. It’s never too late to decide who you want to be. And I won’t lose sight Not one more time I know my dreams They’ll rule my life On this razor’s edge (x2) I won’t lose sight Not one more time I know my dreams They’ll rule my life On this razor’s edge (x2)
8.
Fear from nowhere Your fickle heart it smothers Mental warfare Your power like no other End this nightmare These iron bars confine me And I can’t seem to shake this sinking feeling So I’ll write this on my chest And bare it all for the world to see Though my head knows that it knows best I’ll let my heart pull the strings for me (Just admit you’re mine) Conclude your internal war (Tell me true this time) Am I not worth fighting for? Fear from nowhere This undefined horizon Mental warfare Injected with this bleakness End this nightmare Don’t dare to say you love me ‘Cos I can’t seem to shake this sinking feeling So I’ll write this on my chest And bare it all for the world to see Though my head knows that it knows best I’ll let my heart pull the strings for me (Just admit you’re mine) Conclude your internal war (Tell me true this time) Am I not worth fighting for? You fabricate your aims You clean stains from your name You do this for yourself You do this for yourself You fabricate your aims You clean stains from your name You do this for yourself So I’ll make this choice I’ll make this end So I’ll write this on my chest And bare it all for the world to see Though my head knows that it knows best I’ll let my heart pull the strings for me (Just admit you’re mine) Conclude your internal war (Tell me true this time) Am I not worth fighting for? So I’ll write this on my chest And bare it all for the world to see Though my head knows that it knows best I’ll let my heart pull the strings for me (Just admit you’re mine) Conclude your internal war (Tell me true this time) You’re not what I’m fighting for
9.
No more words We’re not quite dead yet But you’ve lost grip On all your common sense So I’ll sit in my room And try to drink this pain away Heavy thoughts Conspire to plague my mind And I can only try To count the times That I’ve been happy just to know I’ve kept you safe ‘Cos you are the wind that whispers slowly Drifting through my swollen lungs You are the itch that creeps it’s way To taste like poison on my tongue Shadows fade but still your shiver Filters softly down my spine Like a villain starring in this Mental relapse pantomime So I’ll stay right here alone And you’ll live your life like you’ve got Nothing left to give (To live this crushing fear alone) (To live my life out here alone) Cut the ties I’m not justifying Pain we’ve caused Without empathising Passion fled And only anger fills its place Speaking falsely Just to pacify me Written words Must come and neutralise me Pen and paper And a hold on my own space So I’ll stay right here alone And you’ll live your life like you’ve got Nothing left to give And though the time will help you through I know I’m better off than you To live this crushing fear alone So let’s get this story straight right now I never wanted to be turning this pen on you We’ll escape to better days somehow But I’m wide awake searching in desperation So I’ll stay right here alone And you’ll live your life like you’ve got Nothing left to give And though the time will help you through I know I’m better off than you To live this crushing fear alone So I’ll stay right here alone And you’ll live your life like you’ve got Nothing left to give And though the time will help you through I know I’m better off than you To live this crushing fear alone To live my life out here alone
10.
Colder 03:33
I’m gonna find you When there’s nowhere left to keep him The sour taste of love Fades slowly when you’re sleeping Now here’s the question Is it you or is it me babe? That drove the wedge into The paradise we’re keeping Oh, well imagine That it’s me who knows Where you’ve been sleeping Can you fathom The consequences Of selfish reaping This time Don’t try and justify the cause You seem much colder now Than you have done before And I can feel this weight Already breaking all my bones I feel much colder now Than I have done before Than I have done before Is it so obvious There’s no-one here to help you No more regrets ‘cos child The Lord ain’t gonna save you Is your perception that to lie Is an attribute To peel away my skin And tinker with my heart true Oh, well imagine That it’s me who knows The tricks that we suffer Can you fathom The pain of being Betrayed by a lover This time Don’t try and justify the cause You seem much colder now Than you have done before And I can feel this weight Already breaking all my bones I feel much colder now Than I have done before Than I have done before It’s out of the question It’s out of control ‘Cos you knew it was you Who could make me feel whole Don’t try to protest it Don’t try and break through ‘Cos I’m better than this now I’m better than you Don’t try and justify the cause You seem much colder now Than you have done before And I can feel this weight Already breaking all my bones I feel much colder now Than I have done before Than I have done before
11.
A steely resolve And a promise to bear But you don’t No you don’t even care Create your façade Help me feel like I’m safe Blur my hindsight And soothe all my scars A genuine taste Leaves me craving for more Such a comfort To trust who you are Light the flame Fill my veins Lead me to despair Lie through life Kill to thrive Lead me to despair So throw me to the wolves And let me die A morbid reveal My surrender so cold Your intent Like a spear through my bones A twisted design But no different from most This decay It pervades Every weakling it finds Two faces for every mind Light the flame Fill my veins Lead me to despair Lie through life Kill to thrive Lead me to despair So throw me to the wolves And let me die Light the flame Fill my veins Lead me to despair Lie through life Kill to thrive Lead me to despair So throw me to the wolves And let me die
12.
A sycophantic murmur A view to chasing lies To follow template footsteps To lead a vacant life This solitary struggle I fear it breaks my bones To overcome this anguish To venture far from home I just tried to chase my dreams I won’t give up my fight ‘Cos I’ve fire in my eyes I’d longed for something more ‘Fore I was 21 years old This pain is yours to take No more than harrowing mistakes I’d longed for something more ‘Fore I was 21 years old So don’t tell me this is life Another ruthless onslaught Another minion won To serve a failing system So I intend on keeping One eye open And one eye shut I’ll keep your message on my lips So I won’t taste it on my tongue I won’t give up my fight ‘Cos I’ve fire in my eyes I’d longed for something more ‘Fore I was 21 years old This pain is yours to take No more than harrowing mistakes I’d longed for something more ‘Fore I was 21 years old So don’t tell me this is life I tried to find A way to see The person I Was meant to be These words they fall On fragile scars And only reinforce the marks I won’t give up my fight ‘Cos I’ve fire in my eyes I’d longed for something more ‘Fore I was 21 years old This pain is yours to take No more than harrowing mistakes I’ve longed for something more Since I was 21 years old So don’t tell me this is life So keeping One eye open And one eye shut I’ll keep your message on my lips So I won’t taste it on my tongue
