01. The Abandoning - Lyrics:

Wake up sleepy, wide awake!

I am the walking dead
I am death's best friend
I create disaster
I'm the master killing me
There's no innocence
There's only pain
I'm empty

Master Master - Save me
Master Master - Kill me
Don't give up on me now
Cause that's what I've already done
My body's breaking down
I feel my mind getting numb

Why do I hurt myself?
Why can't I escape this hell?
I am always blaming
Always chasing broken dreams
I keep screaming out
But no-one ever hears me

Master Master - Save me
Master Master - Kill me
Don't give up on me now
Cause that's what I've already done
My body's breaking down
I feel my mind getting numb

Bleeding from my disconnection
Lost inside myself
Forsaken by my own reflection
Abandoning myself

I'm wide awake!
On myself
I'm wide awake!
Give up, give up
On myself
Give up, give up
I'm wide awake!
Save me

Master Master - Save me
Master Master - Kill me
Don't give up on me now
Cause that's what I've already done
My body's breaking down
I feel my mind getting numb

Bleeding from my disconnection
Lost inside myself
Forsaken by my own reflection
Abandoning myself

No!
I'm wide awake.


02. Whip It - Lyrics:
[featuring: Matt Baird]

Crack that whip and give the past the slip
Step on a crack and break your momma's back
When a problem comes along, before the cream sits out too long
When something's going wrong

Now whip it into shape
Shape it up, get straight
Go forward, move ahead
Try to detect it
(It's not too late)
To whip it, whip it good

Crack that whip and give the past the slip
Step on a crack and break your momma's back
When a good time turns around
(You must whip it)
You will never live it down
(Unless you whip it)
No one gets away
(Until they whip it)

Now whip it into shape
Shape it up, get straight
Go forward, move ahead
Try to detect it
(It's not too late)
To whip it, whip it good

I say whip it, whip it good
I say whip it, whip it good

I say whip it
(Whip it, whip it)
Whip it good
I say whip it
(Whip it, whip it)
Whip it good

Now whip it into shape
Shape it up, get straight
Go forward, move ahead
Try to detect it
(It's not too late)
To whip it, whip it good

I say whip it, whip it good
I say whip it, whip it, whip it good.

03. Watching The Bottom Fall - Lyrics:

You say it's criminal
(It's not criminal)
I say it's logical
(It's logical)

I said my last "no thank you"
(Where do we go from here?)
We trust the same lies, trust the same things
Justify the crime

(Watch it falling)
What is it for?

Watching the bottom fall
Watching you burn it all
And will we learn again?
And will it hurt forever?
Watching the bottom fall
Fall

You say I'm cynical
(You say, I say)
You're hypocritical
(I say...)
I said my last "no thank you"
(I thought I made it clear)
We trust the same lies, trust the same things
Justify the crime

(Watch it falling)
What is it FOR!

Watching the bottom fall
Watching you burn it all
And will we learn again?
And will it hurt forever?
Watching the bottom fall

I don't have energy for you
I don't have energy to see this through
I don't have energy for you
I don't have energy, can we be through!

I'm through with you

I'm through with you
I'm through with you
I'm through with you
I'm through with you

Watching the bottom fall
Watching you burn it all
And will we learn again?
And will it hurt forever?
Watching the bottom fall
Fall.


04. By The Way... - Lyrics:

My life
Your death
I've been contemplating
And I let you go
As you disappeared
I didn't see it standing there
I didn't see it fall apart
And everything was so unfair
I had to walk away
To get it right

And by the way
I'm doing alright and you don't know
What I had to give to walk away and live again
I'll always miss you and
And by the way
I think about you and the memories
Are never gonna leave
I know I'll see you there with me
Where we will always be alive

You're gone
I'm here
It's completely unfair
And my gifts
Your scars
I will carry now

Did you see me standing strong
Dying with a broken heart
From you fatality
So why'd you have to go
Why did you go

And by the way
I'm doing alright and you don't know
What I had to give to walk away and live again
I'll always miss you and
And by the way
I think about you and the memories
Are never gonna leave
I know I'll see you there with me
Where we will always be alive

I don't know how to go on
I hate you didn't make it
I'm so devastated
I don't know how to go on
I'm holding onto memories
Dying in my misery
I don't know how to go on
I've never felt pain like this
I don't know how to go on
Tell me how to go on

And by the way
I'm doing alright and you don't know
What I had to give to walk away and live again
I'll always miss you and
And by the way
I think about you and the memories
Are never gonna leave
I know I'll see you there with me
Where we will always be alive.


05. Meltdown - Lyrics:

I think I'm having a meltdown

I feel the tension
(I feel the tension)
Confessions told
(Tell me, tell me everything)
Insanity is taking over
The fantasies are driving me mad

Before
Never let it go
Before I fold
Before
Never let it go
Before I fold

You know that I am heading for a meltdown
Controlling me losing it all
You know that I am heading for a meltdown
Just take away the tears
I'm suffocating, don't leave me here waiting

The cry within
(Cry within)
The flesh is bold
(Tell me, tell me everything)
Calamity is waiting silent
The razor is cutting the pain and letting it out

Before
Never let it go
Before I fold
Before
Never let it go
Before I fold

You know that I am heading for a meltdown
Controlling me losing it all
You know that I am heading for a meltdown
Just take away the tears
I'm suffocating, don't leave me here waiting

Over and over in my head
I see your scars
Remember the day when we first met
Take me back

Take me back
I want to go back
Take me back

Before
Never let it go
Before I fold
Before
Never let it go
Before I fold

You know that I am heading for a meltdown
Controlling me losing it all
You know that I am heading for a meltdown
Just take away the tears
I'm suffocating, don't leave me here waiting

Meltdown
For a meltdown
Meltdown.


06. My Disaster - Lyrics:

How can you watch me suffer?
How does it feel?
(How does it feel?)
How do you stay so silent?
Will the time reveal?

You're the leader I follow
Am I a victim of circumstance?

Feeling everything
Crashing down on me
Lost and so afraid
It's my disaster

Losing everything
Giving all of me
I feel so betrayed
In my disaster

How can you say you love me?
It's so unclear
(It's so unclear)
I hope the pain will leave one day
With all the fear

You're the leader I follow
Am I a victim of circumstance?

Feeling everything
Crashing down on me
Lost and so afraid
It's my disaster

Losing everything
Giving all of me
I feel so betrayed
In my disaster

But I'll make it through
But I'll make it through

I've gone to dominate
I will not tolerate it
Will I appreciate
The pain that leads me to you?

Feeling everything
Crashing down on me
Lost and so afraid
It's my disaster

Losing everything
Giving all of me
I feel so betrayed
In my disaster

But I'll make it through
My disaster
But I'll make it through
My disaster.


07. I W8 4 U - Lyrics:
[featuring: Mattie Montgomery]

Makes you real and honest
Makes it worth it all
Make the pain melt away

Don't wait another day
Take a new avenue
Look inside you will find
The way you lost

Tell me you lost it!
Tell me you lost it!
Whatever it takes you know I won't let it break you
Tell me you lost it!
Tell me you lost it!
Don't carry the weight, the weight

I wait for you
Always will, always do
I wait for you
Burning, bleeding, dying

Makes you feel so vibrant
Makes you fall in love
Makes you feel like brand new

Don't wait another day
Take a new avenue
Look inside you will find
The way you lost
Tell me you lost it!
Tell me you lost it!
Whatever it takes you know I won't let it break you
Tell me you lost it!
Tell me you lost it!
Don't carry the weight, the weight

I wait for you
Always will, always do
I wait for you
Burning, bleeding, dying

I'm fed up of missing you
I'm fed up of all your lies
I'm fed up of chasing you
I'm fed up of your disguise

I'm fed up
FED UP

Tell me you lost it!
Tell me you lost it!
Whatever it takes you know I won't let it break you
Tell me you lost it!
Tell me you lost it!
Don't carry the weight, the weight

I wait for you
Always will, always do
I wait for you
Burning, bleeding, dying

I'm fed up
I'm FED UP.


08. Fading Away - Lyrics:

Contamination feeding the masses
Procrastination killing us all

We can see it decay and we play with it
Will we ever know
That we're living a lie
We can say it's ok and keep faking it
Will we ever know

Lie down and let go
We're fading away
Time, time is so cold
We all die one day
Lie down and let go
We're fading away
We won't be around

This masquerade is falling to pieces
This escapade is coming apart

We can see it decay and we play with it
Will we ever know
That we're living a lie
We can say it's ok and keep faking it
Will we ever know

Lie down and let go
We're fading away
Time, time is so cold
We all die one day
Lie down and let go
We're fading away
We won't be around

Lie down
Lie down, let GO!
Lie down! Let go!
Lie down! Let go!

Our pictures are so clear
We're fading away

Lie down and let go
We're fading away
Time, time is so cold
We all die one day
Lie down and let go
We're fading away
We won't be around

Lie down and let go
We're fading away
Time, time is so cold
We all die one day
Lie down and let go
We're fading away
We won't be around.


09. Paralyzed - Lyrics:

Why is my love so cold?
No more will I pretend
Gasping for air as you're slipping through my fingers
Don't kiss me goodbye, please don't leave here

I'm dying inside (knowing it's my fault)
Crying with my (fist against the wall)
Can't get away
I swear I'm gonna break
I'm paralyzed, I need you now

The smell of sacrifice
Your disappearing whispers
I cannot grasp how my life inside just withers
Don't kiss me goodbye, please don't leave here

I'm dying inside (knowing it's my fault)
Crying with my (fist against the wall)
Can't get away
I swear I'm gonna break
I'm paralyzed, I need you now

I need you
I need you now
I need you

Death before I give dishonor
Death before I disobey
Death before I give dishonor!
Death before I disobey!
DISOBEY! DISOBEY!

I'm dying inside (knowing it's my fault)
Crying with my (fist against the wall)
Can't get away
I swear I'm gonna break
I'm paralyzed, I need you now
I need you now.


10. Chemicals - Lyrics:

The lies that you sell
They offend me
You're the killer
And the kisser
Try to not tell
All my secrets
Stop the pressure
Hear the whisper
Watching myself fade away
How long will I live so broken?
A fallen friend, no family
How long will I keep failing?

Can you tell that I'm hurt?
It's critical
All I can smell is the burn
Of chemicals
And slowly lose to temptation
Let me go, let me fight
Chemicals in my mind

Regret as I fall
For that sweet burn
You're the killer
And the kisser
Inject as I crawl
To my master
Stop the pressure
Hear the whisper
Watching myself fade away
How long will I live so broken?
A fallen friend, no family
How long will I keep failing?

Can you tell that I'm hurt?
It's critical
All I can smell is the burn
Of chemicals
And slowly lose to temptation
Let me go, let me fight
Chemicals in my mind

Time, missed
I guess I've never contemplated
All the time that I have missed
Time, stress
I guess I've never contemplated
All the time wasted in stress
Time (time) missed (missed)
I guess I've never contemplated
All of it
Time (time) stress (stress)
I guess I've never contemplated
All of it

Can you tell that I'm hurt?
It's critical
All I can smell is the burn
Of chemicals
And slowly lose to temptation
Let me go, let me fight
Chemicals in my mind

I'm not a criminal
I hate the chemicals
I'm not a criminal
I hate the chemicals
I'm not a criminal
I hate the chemicals
I'm not a criminal
I hate the chemicals.


11. Bruises - Lyrics:

Hearing voices in your head
Hurting bruises spoken through their mouths again
Every letter breaks the skin
One by one the bruises find a way back in

They bleed you dry
They bleed you dry

Show us how to live
How do we forgive
Through the bitterness?
(How do we get there?)

Show us how to die
How to give our lives
Living sacrifice
(How do we get there?)

Many scars we try to hide
How much longer will we keep the pain alive?

They bleed you dry
They bleed you dry

Show us how to live
How do we forgive
Through the bitterness?
(How do we get there?)

Show us how to die
How to give our lives
Living sacrifice
(How do we get there?)

Now that I gave you all of my heart
Why do they rip it apart?
Shattered and broken down again
Fix the pieces
The pieces...

Shown how to live
How do we forgive
Through the bitterness?
(How do we get there?)

Show us how to die
How to give our lives
Living sacrifice
(How do we get there?)

Show us how to live; show us how to die
Show us how to give our lives.
