01. Resurrection - Lyrics:
There was a time
When I could breath my life in you
One by one
Your pale fingers started to move
And I touched your face
And all life was erased
You smiled like an angel
(Falling from grace)
We've been slaves to this love
From the moment we touched
And keep begging for more
Of this resurrection
We've been slaves to this love
From the moment we touched
And keep begging for more
Of this resurrection
You kissed my lips
With those once cold fingertips
You reached out for me
And oh how you missed
You touched my face
And all life was erased
You smiled like an angel
(Falling from grace)
We've been slaves to this love
From the moment we touched
And keep begging for more
Of this resurrection
We've been slaves to this love
From the moment we touched
And keep begging for more
Of this resurrection.
02. Pleasure In Pain - Lyrics:
To tired to figure it out my head is spinning
My heart is so drained right now I think I'm slipping
On my last nerve
I'll get what I deserve
I need this I want this
I'm so obsessed
Pleasure in pain
I feel whole again
I break the seal with my hand my blood starts pumping
Screams ring out so loud right now so deafening
On my last nerve
I'll get what I deserve
I need this I want this
I'm so obsessed
Pleasure in pain
I feel whole again
You'll never forget my face.
03. Worthless - Lyrics:
Did you ever realize
That your way of life
Is effecting all around you
Bottom feeding ignorant
You make me fucking sick
Did you ever realize
That everyone you know
Can't fucking stand you
Acting like you know everything
When you don't even have a clue
You're worthless
Worthless
I can't fucking believe
You never realized
That your way of life
Revolves around theft and greed
Every week a new identity
Yet still an asshole to me
Did you ever realize
No matter how hard you try
You'll never make a difference
Just keep on fucking pretending
That you're our savior
Worthless
Nobody cares if you die
Worthless
You are fucking worthless.
04. Six - Lyrics:
She has seen so many things it's so surreal
She has done so many things it's so unreal
She has been almost everywhere
And tasted everything
She has been a dream since birth
Who could conquer anything
Night after night after every single night
She never gave up
Fight after fight after motherfucking fight
She came out on top
One rule one way of life
Only the strong survive
Never back down never back down
Destroying everything
Blood all the blood every single drop of blood
She sucks it up
Breath every breath every single damn breath
She screams with love
One rule one way of life
Only the strong survive
Never back down never back down
Destroying everything
Nobody in this world will ever stop her
Nobody in this world will ever touch her
Everybody in this world will want to be her
Everybody in this world just needs to see her
She's everything
And she'll destroy the world
Never back down never back down
Destroying everything.
05. No Reason To Live - Lyrics:
Brown, yellow and white diseases
Plague the streets with a vile stench
The smell of shit and piss fill the air
So fucking disgusting
Day and night feed off humanity
Scraping by on the remnants of life
No cure, no hope, no way to change
Paper bags filled with liquid love
No, no reason to live
No, no reason to live
Steel benches and cardboard beds
Sheets made of black and white
To hide the sun
Live off garbage like a fucking pig
No way to survive
Day and night feed off humanity
Scraping by on the remnants of life
No cure, no hope, no way to change
Paper bags filled with liquid love
No, no reason to live
No, no reason to live
No, no reason to live
No, no reason to live
So, so fucking disgusting
No, no reason to live
So, so fucking disgusting
No, no reason to live.
06. Killing The Beast - Lyrics:
You're a man who lives in solitude
Never knowing what life could bring you
You have to raise your fists just to break through
All the voices inside your head that make you
You're a man who's filled with attitude
Don't you know that everyone hates you
It would be so simple for me to kill you
Mark my words my man I will stop you
Killing the beast killing the beast kill
You'll always see me
You'll always need me
You'll never last one minute without me
You can't take away all the lies that you told me
But I can take away all the feelings that I had for you
You'll always see me
You'll always need me
You'll never last one minute without me
I'm killing the beast
Killing the beast
Tear his heart out.
07. The Flame - Lyrics:
Her eyes opened
After that terrible night
Would she ever be the same
A revelation of her own demise
No one left but herself to blame
Her silence only fueled the flame
And now the angels
Have lost their wings
In daddy's playground
Nothing is what it seems
This was the last time
That he'd see her
That he'd touch her
That he'd make his little girl scream out loud
I'm gonna pound you into oblivion
I will make you fucking bleed
There is no escaping me
This is your destiny
He came to her
Through the window again
The fan blowing to hide the noise
No hesitation from the devil inside
Everyone he touched was destroyed
His madness only fueled the flame
And now the angels
Have lost their wings
In daddy's playground
Nothing is what it seems
This was the last time
That he'd see her
That he'd touch her
That he'd make his little girl scream out loud
I'm gonna pound you into oblivion
I will make you fucking bleed
There is no escaping me
This is your destiny
Time to walk with me
Time to die
Let me take you somewhere secluded
Where only the trees can see
If I can't have you no one will
Didn't you know it was always me
Your flame now burned out
You were daddy's little girl
Your flame now burned out
Oh god what have I done.
08. End It All - Lyrics:
Another day another town another city
It's all the same
And I used to find comfort in all of this
It's an excuse to deviate from the norm
Pathetic isn't it
After all these years still not content
Happiness has been long lost
Suffering a drug with no cost
How great would it be to end it all
Another show another state another country
It has always been the same
Commanding troops just like a general
Leading the warriors into a battle
Pathetic isn't it
After all these years, still not content
Happiness has been long lost
Suffering a drug with no cost
How great would it be to end it all
Why bother it won't satisfy
Nothing ever does
The pills, the love, the recognition and support
I live to die rot and decay
Happiness has been long lost
Suffering a drug with no cost
How great would it be to end it all
How great would it be to run away.
09. Black Heart - Lyrics:
Black heart dead soul
Apathy and misery
Loss of control
Any of the above would describe me
I hate being inhuman
All I do is fuck everything up
Someone just please put a gun to my head
I just don't care anymore
I'm broken tired and sore
I just don't care anymore
From my black heart
Faceless humans
Just want to get inside me
Shut down long ago
Not even the closest know me
Like a leper everything I touch
Rots dies then turns to dust
Everyone should just stay away from me
I just don't care anymore
I'm broken tired and sore
I just don't care anymore
From my black heart.
10. Needle - Lyrics:
I gave up trying
No use in lying
Another broken promise
Another bond demolished
Will I ever give a fuck
About anyone or anything
Day by day live in denial
The needle is reality
Weightless painless numbness shameless
Lying on the floor
I don't even care
Feeling so useless
Only one thing will fix this
Veins are flowing with my solution
Picturing death for inspiration
Set me free
Oh what a feeling as it enters my skin
Taking me back before the life filled with sin
Weightless painless numbness shameless
I'll show the world I'm the hand of god
I'll give you everything you need
I'll make all your dreams come true
I'll take away all your misery
I'll answer all your prayers
I'll fill you with hope
I'll feed you when you're hungry
I'll be the one to help you cope
Weightless painless numbness shameless
Needle.
11. Empire - Lyrics:
Do you believe in me
Enough to sacrifice
Do you believe in me
Enough to end your life
Do you believe in me
Enough to kill for me
Do you believe in me
Enough to die for me
Come on and join me
Grab my hand
Together we will feast
On the blood of the weak
Empire
Destroying dignity
Empire
Destroying humanity
When you walk the path
You will discover a world undreamed of
Your suffering will be legendary
Do you believe in suffering
Do you believe in me
Enough to slay your brother
Do you believe in me
Enough to betray your family
Come on and join me
Grab my hand
Together we will feast
On the blood of the weak
Empire
Destroying dignity
Empire
Destroying humanity
When you walk the path
Your feelings won't betray you
When you walk the path
Your agony will elate you
Empire
Destroying dignity
Empire
Destroying humanity.
12. Kingdom Of Heartache - Lyrics:
[Bonus Track]
Years ago, they came to me
Claiming they would protect me
Their fingers felt like silk
And lips tasted like candy
They were my everything
Something left from a dream
This was the first time
I felt so close to god
And all the angels
Lead me to his kingdom
There is no escaping
Judgement arise
Trapped in the
Kingdom of heartache
There is no escaping
Judgement arise
Trapped in the
Kingdom of heartache
There's no way to understand
What the hell has happened
One minute, on top of the world
The next minute, I'm drowning
They took away everything
Shattered (shattered)
All my dreams (all my dreams)
This was the last time
I felt so close to god
And all the angels
Lead me to his kingdom
There is no escaping
Judgement arise
Trapped in the
Kingdom of heartache
There is no escaping
Judgement arise
Trapped in the
Kingdom of heartache
Sinking, sacrifice
Keep on bleeding (bleeding)
Mutilate all my feelings (feelings)
Together in hell
Becoming a demon
Kingdom (kingdom)
Of heartache (heartache)
Judgement arise
Judgement arise
Judgement arise
In the kingdom of heartache.
13. Paralyzed - Lyrics:
[Bonus Track]
What's that behind her back (her back)
Suffocated with a plastic bag
She grasps for air
Next struggle, her feet are nailed to the floor
Carving again and again
Slicing away the flesh
(Don't choke to death)
Begging again and again
Praying for it all to end
The knife severs her spine
Paralyzed, paralyzed
Hole in the spine
She is paralyzed
Bleeding from the back of her neck
Gagging from all the blood that's in her mouth
Breathing her last breath
Fighting to stay alive
Paralyzed, paralyzed
Hole in the spine
She is paralyzed
Paralyzed, paralyzed
Hole in the spine
She is paralyzed
Paralyzed, paralyzed
Hole in the spine
She is paralyzed
Oh god
Look at that.
