As I look in the mirror I see something's different I take a closer look This image is scaring me I feel my skin itching I fear the person beneath This fight will end in one way Will it be me or him? Am I strong enough? Will I survive? I take another look I see him weakening I'm not afraid anymore I know that I am stronger I feel the power rising This is my final hour I'm running from myself I'm scared of what I've become This fight will end in one way Is this my time? Was I strong enough? Did I survive? I take another look I see I'm weakening Who lives? Who dies? What will survive? When I am done What will become? What will become of me? The blood is running faster I can't control my feelings I'm at the point of braking This is where everything ends I'm not running anymore I'm no longer scared I have already won The time is mine to spare Who was strong enough? Who did survive? I take ome last look I see now who's the weak

What I conquer I control When I kill I take the soul I'm your god, I'll take your hand You will vanish into sand Hindsight and snow blind Cannot control your mind Bring all the murders You'll see so much further Bring all the murders Cannot escape the walls you built The hunger you feel is their guilt Bloodred fear but not of you 'Cause they're just like you, they feel it too

Soulless 03:27
Can you see the light at the end of this darkness? I hear them closing in on us This is where we will rest I hear them breathing in the dark, Their smell is closing in on us This is where we will rest, will rest forever This is it I can't stand them This is it Are you ready They're watching every move I take They're crowding me until I brake The evil has spread in to my soul I fear am loosing my control I can't belive what I've become I fought but now I'm not alone I feel my life draining away Was I so easy to betray? This is it I can't stand them This is it I am ready Soulless I can't see the light at the end of this What once was me no longer exists This is where the new world will begin We won't stop until you're all in sin I've fought for so long, now the end is near But this isn't over, there's still room for fear With just one taste you will see With just one bite I'll set you free This is it are you ready? You are now soulless A simple invatation to my world Were every new senstation is absurd This quiet desperation won't be heard You'll get what you deserve This is it I can't stand them This is it are you ready You are You are You are now soulless

You gotta have a disease to be special but with intelligence you will be lead to ingorance borders are-a changing, sorting the dreams to manipulation Ph. D and A++ What is wrong with talent and guts? Dirty works for lawyers salaries The difference's huge when you're burning calories Well, we are special and we never grew up to fast We believe in something that is real Well, we are lost. We're the dead hand of the past And we are drowning but got gills of stainless steel You live in the bottom of your scratched and broken dreams But they expect you to accept all of the national themes And only with cash you can afford to stay sober but forgetting 'bout the days in October It's an endless struggle for perfection as we're voting "ourselves" in the election never understanding the real state of art trying to be smart, by following your heart Once you start to doubt yourself, you will fade away
5.
So Far Away 05:27
The same record's playing again and again And it's your face that stares through my mirror Keep trying to wash away your scent But it's never enough, I can't face it You're so far away You're too close to me still I see your eyes when I close mine I hear your laugh and your calming words I keep feeling your skin in my palms And it's never enough, no it's never enough You're so far away You're too close to me still You're so far away and it hurts You're never there when I scream I need to grow my tower Where it hurts you the most I need a process, I need a way out Need to burn you away A path to grow on, to hate and to love To find a new face in my mirror You're so far away You're too close to me still You're so far away and it hurts You're never there when I scream
6.
War Chant 03:29
I'm through with you, I'll take a bow Only dreams can save you now You never got so close, never got near I'm gonna paint my vengeance with your fear Go find yourself a place to hide and forget that you never tried You won the battle but you lost war You got another one comin' at your backdoor Face to face Eye for an eye You never fail, cause you never try Face to face Eye for an eye I'll close my eyes and watch you die Just walk away From this tragedy, walk away I worked so hard to let it go For seven months I laid below Just run and hide and hide and run Nothing left you're fucking done It took so long to understand the betrayal Appearances can be deceiving Your only choice now, is leaving Say goodbye to your fantasy You never were my friend, not even close to me

Freeze the picture Can't hold on to the benefit of youth Line up the stricture Every day is a moment of truth Playing house like the cavemen did Memories of what my childhood forbid Is this the price to pay; getting old? Not even close to fool's gold I see an old man in the mirror Now everything's clearer These four walls I've seen them all Getting ready for a curtain call Early to rise and early to bed, Makes a man healthy, but socially dead Am I the same? Never doubted my self, but I'm fading I got my pawn in the game And the mirror's degrading God was never my maker and Satan was never my dad Ereasing the fallen taker Getting back the life I've never had I have been down Down but never broken The man I wanted to be Is the boy that I became Always taking the higher ground I never lived in shame And just because I could Doesn't mean I should I'll never surrender I'll never compromise I'm just a guy who knows about sacrifice Carve my name in stone But I won't die alone

Released from the ball and chain Impulsive's no part of my plan I'm winning, I won Now's a good time to carry on Radiant eyes they shine so bright They shine until the end of time Smile in delight and it's conquered me Totally blind, I'm a devotee Embracing the time and fighting for more I see it now, must overcome We're legion, united Everyday is new, I'm so excited So pretty, so golden So innocent, so unbroken I'm chosen, I'm strong I'm forever and eternal My heart dwells and I want more Don't remember how I lived before This monster created life A peaceful soul, got no regrets Boosting my inspiration 'Scuse me, while I kiss the sky
9.
Breathe 06:06
Time, heals all wounds but still my soul is scarred as I'm standing on the churchyard and staring at your stone the pain hurts down to my bone now that you left this earth I stand here left to hurt Breathe Without you Breathe without you How can I breathe without you? you left this world in a haste and all that's left is a bitter taste Time, heals all wounds now I still wonder why did you say goodbye? it's hard to comprehend and alone is where I stand tough you gone to past you found some peace at last Staring at myself in the mirror on the wall Trying to figure out why I feel so small The pain cuts like a razorblade My minds trapped in a mystic shade My brain can't handle it all It feels like my head has hit the wall
10.
Enola Gay 02:47
Little boy you fall so fast In the blink of an eye you hit the ground Little boy you're one in a million but the million dies with you Lightning flashes and thunder roars Lightning flashes before my eyes Mushroom cloud in the sky You're all gonna die Little boy you're hurting big A creation made to kill Little boy you'll never grow up You're just a shadow of the fat man Sulfur, shrapnel, expand out of town

Smudge 04:58
How futile my mark on the world seems to be Whatever happens to me I'm sure won't leave a scar I've faced those inner demons of which they speak I'm unsure if they even, if they even cared Show me faces of despair Make me cry when I'm in your arms Light the way for me to walk Show me how to hide a pain Never No, never have I been This close To finding me I've read the thousand words of an artist I guess the picture wasn't perfect However dull the colors seemed to be I'm sure my life can fade, can fade beside it Bring some ink into my world Draw a picture full of contrast Make a difference, make me smile Give me pain and lead the way
