Bleed Red
03:30

Monsters don’t sleep under my bed
They lie inside my fucking head
Remembering the things I drank to forget
A blood-curdling hymn to make me feel at home,
Does it make your skin crawl?
It’s too late for me
I look over your corpse
With a delight that's almost physical
Does it ever get any better?
It’s too late for you
Too late for me
Monsters don't sleep under my bed
They lie inside my fucking head
Remembering the things I drank to forget,
The voice is asking
If you bleed red,
They cut you open
To see what you’re made of
If you bleed red
A sick, sordid sin
A hunger deep within
Does it make your skin crawl?
It’s too late for me
Dark storms inside my head
Is there a shelter for my sanity?
Strike the match light the flame
It’s too late for you
Too late for me
Monsters don't sleep under my bed
They lie inside my fucking head
Remembering the things I drank to forget
The voice is asking if you bleed red
They cut you open see what you’re made of
If you bleed red
Tear them open
Leave nothing behind
Take away their everything
No trace to ever find

Smoke & Mirrors
04:41
|

Throw me back
I battle but my strength is drained
My time is over
Let go of holds
I’ve held so long
This is vast
A snowstorm in an hourglass
This is bleak
This is deeper than the deepest sea
Swallow me up
And let the darkness delete me
I am a lost soul
Behind the smoke and mirrors
I am a lost soul
Behind the smoke and mirrors
With demons within
A wake of destruction
I’m starting to waiver
I’m starting to lose everything
This is fierce
A snowstorm in an hourglass
This is bleak
This is deeper than the deepest sea
Swallow me up
And let the darkness delete me
I am a lost soul
Behind the smoke and mirrors
I am a lost soul
Behind the smoke and mirrors
The harbour’s eyes can’t see me
Too far gone
Desolate and lone
Do I deserve to burn?
Now the venom spills out on the floor
No one hears the cry
My guilty conscience has severed the cord
Do I deserve to burn?
Do I deserve to burn?
This is bleak
This is deeper than the deepest sea
Swallow me up
And let the darkness delete me
I am a lost soul
Behind the smoke and mirrors
I am a lost soul
Behind the smoke and mirrors
Do I Deserve to burn?
Behind the smoke and mirrors

Buried
04:32
|

Cut me away
You lied and cheated and killed
To find your way through
You don't have any demons
They're too scared to come anywhere near you
You don't have any demons
They're too scared to come anywhere near you
I'll leave you in your grave
And when the light does fade
Your bed of darkness will be made
Buried in your misery
We will drown in your despair
Let me burn the bridge that leads to you,
You’re in search of a soul to seize, ‘cause
You don't have any demons they're too scared to come anywhere near you
You don't have any demons they're too scared to come anywhere near you
Believe me when I say
You’ll see the truth today
your bed of darkness has been made
Buried in your misery
We will drown in your despair
The blade of madness has become unsheathed
Black eyes burn in the mirror
Pure disgust staring back at you
A fire of self-loathing washes over you
Take a deep breath, the hate fills your lungs
Buried in your misery
We will drown in your despair

Oblivion
04:52
|
|||
It has a mind of its own
A virus with no home
It lures you with a caress
She’s my cruel mistress
It cuts you to the bone
Pure evil on the throne
Infected and possessed
She’s my cruel mistress
Nothing is real anymore
I’m grieving the loss now
I know there’s no cure
Descending with ghosts
I know this is the end
Descending with ghosts
The fate of the damned
It has a mind of its own
A virus with no home
It lures with a caress
She’s my cruel mistress
Not with you
Not with any of them
Her vile addiction is oblivion
Acid burns
My stomach turns
This fever climbs higher and higher
Nothing is real anymore
I’m grieving the loss now
I know there’s no cure
Descending with ghosts
I know this is the end
Descending with ghosts
The fate of the damned
The light you had has left your eyes
You leave this world behind
Lost in the grey oblivion
And when the moon and sun collide
It casts an end to time
Lost in the grey oblivion
Nothing is real anymore
I’m grieving the loss now
I know there’s no cure
Descending with ghosts
I know this is the end
Descending with ghosts
The fate of the damned
Lost in the grey oblivion

The Noose
03:25
|
|||
Drank myself sick on tears of liquor
And I drowned in junkie’s blood
We never question why
We always chase this high
A thousand is never enough
The night stretched long and black
Like the tongue of a sinner
Strangled by the noose
Drowning out the screams
Well the first one is the killer
It’s a slippery slope
Now my eyes are bleeding a deep crimson red
But I can’t feel shit, cos I’m already dead.
Would you believe what has happened to me?
I’m already dead
I’m already dead
The nights stretch long and black
As the tongue of a sinner
Strangled by the noose
Drowning out the screams
Drank myself sick on tears of liquor and I drowned in junkie’s blood
Join me for a round of sweet fucking nothing,
You’ll never kill my night
If you give in to more then things will never change
If you give into all you’re going down
Going down
I’m already dead
Fell into darkness
Liquor and lies
I fell into darkness
Liquor and lies

Reclusive
04:39
|

Welded walls
Surrounding my world
I’m in solitude
Rejection from a world that I’m yearning to feel again
I hide away
No one will know my suffering
A mind enslaved
No one will know I’m crumbling
Why am I falling apart?
I’m going under the radar where no one will find me
Who are you when no one is watching?
What's engraved on your skin?
Who will tell of the blackness amongst us
Now we’re lost and can never begin
Who are you when no one is watching?
What's engraved on your skin?
Who will tell of the blackness amongst us
Now we’re lost and can never begin
Nowhere to hide
Into black space I’m crawling
Watch how my life
Is slowly taken from me
Why am I falling apart?
I’m going under the radar where no one will find me
Why am I falling apart?
I’m going under the radar where no one will find me
Who are you when no one is watching?
Who are you when no one is watching you?
Who are you when no one is watching?
What's engraved on your skin?
Who will tell of the blackness amongst us
Now we’re lost and can never begin
Who are you when no one is watching?
What's engraved on your skin?
Who will tell of the blackness amongst us
Now we’re lost and can never begin

Seduced By Shadows
04:09
|
|||
There was a time
Before the voice took hold
All of the morbid confessions you keep
Built this kingdom of sorrow
To fill the black hollow
Pre-decomposed, post alive
Is your sacrifice
You knew you were going to hell
The sound of the demons never ceased
Wade through the mire of souls
Just to gain your place
But the fires burned your skin
Tore you to shreds as you paid with your sins
This is your place to feast
So feast
And now you’re crawling away
You feel better when the night kills the day
This is your indulgence
Seduced by a shadow
This I foretold
Now the beast has taken hold
Screaming as loud as the cold howling wind
The venom we all swallow
Will haunt us all tomorrow
Nobody gets unscarred
Your final disregard
You knew you were going to hell
The sound of the demons never ceased
Wade through the mire of souls
Just to gain your place
But the fires burned your skin
Tore you to shreds as you paid with your sins
This is your place to feast
So feast
You’ll never escape
It will swallow you up
You’ll never escape
Seduced by shadows

The Narcissist
05:12
|

You've shown the world all you want them to see
But I think you’re masquerading
For you there'll never be another release
Better than mass attention
Everyone knows who you are
And the mask has fallen away
And the people that held you high
Are nowhere to be seen
See a reflection of a broken man
The horror of your truth
A life they won’t recall when they bury you
The horror of your truth
I won't believe it about you
This story always gets old
Your apathy never cuts through
Carved from empty words, a heart of stone
The truth you never told
I can see you’re struggling
With the truth you never told
We should’ve never believed in the first place
But now you’ve lost your hold
See a reflection of a broken man
The horror of your truth
A life they won’t recall when they bury you
The horror of your truth
I won't believe it about you,
This story always gets old
Your apathy never cuts through
Carved from empty words, a heart of stone
I won't believe it about you,
This story always gets old
Your apathy never cuts through
Carved from empty words, a heart of stone

I Am The Undead
03:57
|
|||
I move amongst the living
Their eyes and mouths swirls around me
Drifting through doors
Like blue smoke and red mist
Violated by breathing
Fornicating
Her sour bloodstream makes me wretch
Immersed in a warm bath of chemicals
High and wide glass walls
Look down on rows of crowded towers
I AM THE UNDEAD
I AM THE UNDEAD
A field of grey tombstones
Broken columns and spires
A collection of monuments to the vanity of man
Her sour bloodstream makes me wretch
Immersed in a warm bath of chemicals
High and wide glass walls
Look down on rows of crowded towers
I AM THE UNDEAD
I AM THE UNDEAD
My rotten soul will rise up
To claim this world of yours
My rotten soul will rise up
And claim it all
There is no mercy
From the black hole within my eyes
There is no escape
I AM THE UNDEAD
My rotten soul will rise up
To claim this world of yours
My rotten soul will rise up
And claim it all

Circles

I'll be waiting around to hear the words you’re gone
You’re now unburdened from the strain of life
a life so long
So it's time
Time for the truth
Know this life
Was never here for you
So this life was never really fair
Cold and out
I know that nothing’s ever set in stone for you
Wrap around the words
Tear away the hurt
Now’s the time,
You’re still alive
And you said it yourself there's no way out
Take me by the hand
A getaway unplanned
And you said it yourself there's no way out
Forced to fade away
Without a choice
So it's time,
Now it’s time to tell the truth
Know this life
Was never here for you
Solo
So it's time,
Time for the truth
Know this life
Was never here for you
So this life was never really fair
Cold and out
