02. Her Voice Resides - Lyrics:
Our time is ending, I feel it's only just begun
And I'm frustrated, I can't believe you're not the one
My ears are bleeding, her voice resides inside my head
And now I'm choking, release this noose around my neck!
Will I just fall to pieces?
Or am I all right?
To iron out my creases, you must lacerate me 'til they're gone
These are my final words to you
I know you're listening, can you hear me
The time has come to say goodbye
These are my final words, to you
The clock is ticking, my heart is bursting through my chest,
And now I'm crying, the tears are pouring off my face,
The chair is creaking, her voice resides inside my head,
And now it's over, you put this noose around my neck
Will I just fall to pieces?
Or am I all right?
To iron out my creases, you must lacerate me 'til they're gone
These are my final words to you
I know you're listening, can you hear me
The time has come to say goodbye
These are my final words, to you
Heaven, where is my angel?
I need her now, holding me
Heaven, where is my angel?
I need her now, holding me tonight
Now!
Will I just fall to pieces?
Or am I all right?
To iron out my creases, you must lacerate me 'til they're gone
These are my final words to you
I know you're listening, can you hear me
The time has come to say goodbye
These are my final words, to you.
03. 4 Words (To Choke Upon) - Lyrics:
Betrayed one more time
But somewhere down that line
You're gonna get what's coming to you
Look at me now
Look at me now
Look at me now!
Pull the knife from my back
Soon I'm the one that's on attack
Can't wait to return the favour
Look at me now
Look at me now
Look at me now!
Too many times I've seen it
Rip a hole into our friendship
This is how it's been, how it always will be
You think you're above me
(You think you're above me!)
But now I'm here to end this
Four words to choke upon!
Look! (Look!)
At, me... now!
Betrayed one more time
But somewhere down that line
You're gonna get what's coming to you
Look at me now
Look at me now
Look at me now!
Pull the knife from my back
To leave the one inside intact
Can't wait to return the favour
Look at me now
Look at me now
Look at me now!
Too many times I've seen it
Rip a hole into our friendship
This is how it's been, how it always will be
You think you're above me
(You think you're above me!)
But now I'm here to end this
Four words to choke upon!
Look! (Look!)
At, me... now!
Oh!
Too many times I've seen it
Rip a hole into our friendship
Four words to choke upon!
Too many times I've seen it
Rip a hole into our friendship
This is how it's been, how it always will be
You think you're above me
(You think you're above me!)
But now I'm here to end this
Four words to choke upon!
Look! (Look!) At, me... Now!
04. Tears Don't Fall - Lyrics:
Let's go!
With bloodshot eyes I watch you sleeping
The warmth I feel beside me is slowly fading
Would she hear me, if I called her name?
Would she hold me, if she knew my shame?
There's always something different going wrong
The path I walk is in the wrong direction
There's always someone fucking hanging on
Can anybody help me make things better?
Your tears don't fall, they crash around me
Her conscience calls the guilty to come home
Your tears don't fall, they crash around me
Her conscience calls the guilty to come home
The moment's died, I hear no screaming
The visions left inside me are slowly fading
Would she hear me, if I called her name?
Would she hold me, if she knew my shame?
There's always something different going wrong
The path I walk is in the wrong direction
There's always someone fucking hanging on
Can anybody help me make things better?
Your tears don't fall, they crash around me
Her conscience calls the guilty to come home
Your tears don't fall, they crash around me
Her conscience calls the guilty to come home
Oh!
Yeah!
This battered room I've seen before
The broken bones they heal no more, no more
With my last breath I'm choking
Will this ever end, I'm hoping?
My world is over one more time
Let's go!
[Solo Guitar]
Would she hear me, if I called her name?
Would she hold me, if she knew my shame?
There's always something different going wrong
The path I walk is in the wrong direction
There's always someone fucking hanging on
Can anybody help me make things better?
Your tears don't fall, they crash around me
Her conscience calls the guilty to come home
Your tears don't fall, they crash around me
Her conscience calls the guilty to come home
Better!
Your tears don't fall, they crash around me
Her conscience calls the guilty to come home.
05. Suffocating Under Words Of Sorrow
(What Can I Do) - Lyrics:
The night is starting here we go
I check out everything
This is our time to lose control
What do you want from me
You line them up we'll put them down
This is so frustrating
To watch you sleezing all around
Yet you keep on smiling
What can I do to make you see?
(You're guilty)
What can I do to make you feel?
(You're wanted)
What can I do to make you see?
(You're guilty)
I'm suffocating under words of sorrow
Her skin reflects behind the blur
I'm intoxicated
Where am I from? Why am I here?
(You're so predictable)
Fingers running through my hair,
But its all just fiction
She steps out from her underwear,
So beautiful
What can I do to make you see?
(You're guilty)
What can I do to make you feel?
(You're wanted)
What can I do to make you see…
(You're guilty)
I'm suffocating under words of sorrow
Go!
(There's bodies lying on the floor)
But I keep on staring…
(My world is over, close the door)
Her skin reflects behind the blur
I'm intoxicated
Where am I from? Why am I here?
You're so predictable
Fingers running through my hair
I'm a new addiction
She steps out from her underwear
So beautiful
What can I do to make you see?
(You're guilty)
What can I do to make you feel?
(You're wanted)
What can I do to make you see?
(You're guilty)
I'm suffocating under words of sorrow
(Words of sorrow).
06. Hit The Floor - Lyrics:
I see you walking home alone, your face is alive and bright
But you can't see how weak you are 'cause I could end it tonight
It's the feeling you get when you think that someone behind is watching you
Well I can tell you now, that someone is me and I'm about to make it right
Why do you take it all?
Why do I beg for more?
I never thought that this is how I'd hit the floor
Why do you take it all?
Why do I beg for more?
I never thought that this is how I'd HIT THE FLOOR!
I creep up from behind, touch your neck, move down your spine
You take a look and breathe so sharp
Just a matter of time
Don't scream I ask of you, but then you let one out and now it's time to go
I come down on you like a ton of brick
All over so it's time to go
Why do you take it all?
Why do I beg for more?
I never thought that this is how I'd hit the floor
Why do you take it all?
Why do I beg for more?
I never thought that this is how I'd hit the floor
HIT THE FLOOR!
Whoa-oah!
Whoa-oah!
Whoa-oah!
Whoa-oah!
Why do you take it all?
Why do I beg for more?
I never thought that this is how I'd hit the floor
Why do you take it all?
Why do I beg for more?
I never thought that this is how I'd HIT THE FLOOR!
Take this for me, I don't wanna hurt you
Take this for me, I don't WANNA HURT YOU!
07. All These Things I Hate
(Revolve Around Me) - Lyrics:
Once more I'll say goodbye to you
Things happen, but we don't really know why
If it's supposed to be like this
Why do most of us ignore the chance to miss
Oh yeah
Torn apart at the seams as my dreams turn to tears
I'm not feeling the situation
Run away try to find that safe place you can hide
It's the best place to be when you're feeling like
Me! (Me)
Yeah! (Yeah)
All these things I hate revolve around Me! (Me)
Yeah! (Yeah)
Just back off before I snap
Once more, you tell those lies to me
Why can't you just be straight up with honesty (honesty, honesty)
When you say those things in my ear
Why do you always tell me what you wanna hear (wanna hear, wanna hear)
Oh yeah (yeah!)
Wear your heart on your sleeve, make things hard to believe
I'm not feeling the situation
Run away, try to find that safe place you can hide
It's the best place to be when you're feeling like
Me! (Me)
Yeah! (Yeah)
All these things I hate revolve around me (Me)
Yeah! (Yeah)
Just back off before I snap and you'll see! (Me)
Me! (Me)
All these things I hate revolve around me (Me)
Yeah! (Yeah)
Just back off before I snap
Torn apart at the seams as my dreams turn to tears
I'm not feeling the situation
Run away try to find that safe place you can hide
It's the best place to be when you're feeling like me
It's the best place to be when you're...
Me! (Me)
Yeah! (Yeah)
All these things I hate revolve around me (Me)
Yeah! (Yeah)
Just back off before I snap and you'll see (Me)
Me! (Me)
All these things I hate revolve around me (Me)
Yeah! (Yeah)
Just back off before I snap.
08. Room 49 - Lyrics:
Yeah!
I can't believe what I've seen, so scratch my eyes out!
You, were at ease, on your knees, in his apartment!
You said his name, as I came, in your direction!
Now, I can choose, what to do, with both of you
I loved you! (I need you...)
You hurt me! (I loved you...)
I loved you,
You, hurt, me, bad!
GO!
Your words, bury me, of what I used to be
I can't erase all those things I've seen
Your heart, smothers me, now it's hard to breathe
I can't erase all my memories
I, take a step, to the left, now you see me!
Tears, start to pour, as you crawl, in his apartment!
You, screamed his name, as I came, in your direction!
Fists, start to fly, say goodbye, there's no excuses!
I loved you! (I need you...)
You hurt me! (I loved you...)
I loved you,
You, hurt, me, bad!
GO!
Your words, bury me, of what I used to be
I can't erase all those things I've seen
You heart, smothers me, now it's hard to breathe
I can't erase all my memories
OH!
Wha-oh-ah-oh!
Wha-oh-ah-oh!
Wha-oh-ah-oh!
Wha-oh-ah-oh!
Get up!
(Hey!) There's no excuses!
(Hey!)
(Hey!) There's no excuses!
(Hey!)
I loved you! (I need you...)
You hurt me! (I loved you...)
I loved you,
You, hurt, me, bad!
GO!
Your words, bury me, of what I used to be
I can't erase all those things I've seen
You heart, smothers me, now it's hard to breathe
I can't erase all my memories
Erase all my memories of you!
09. The Poison - Lyrics:
Now, is your time to die
We've gathered here to say goodbye
No, more, you'll cry
No reason left for you to fight
Feel, pain, no more
Emotions never felt before
Where, do, we go
We go, she'll never know
Holding on to you, to keep from falling
Your eyes are closing now
Another chapter's ending
Hard, times, we always saw
There's nothing left of you no more
Fear, has, no place, no place
Cover her face
Holding on to you, to keep from falling
Your eyes are closing now
Another chapter's ending
This is our last goodbye (goodbye!)
This is our time tonight
[Solo Guitar]
Holding on to you!
Holding on to you... To keep from falling!
Holding on to you, to keep from falling
Your eyes are closing now
Another chapter's ending
This is our last goodbye (goodbye!)
This is our time tonight (goodbye!)
This is our last goodbye!
10. 10 Years Today - Lyrics:
Ten years ago, I got a call that nearly killed me
Repeat yourself, my hands are shaking
When I was told, my friend was gone I felt so guilty
A thousand questions left unanswered
I'll bleed if you want me to!
I'll serenade before I do
I'll bleed if you want me, to!
On and on although you're gone, candles burn without a flame on
Our final call to you, I know you're listening
How could you leave us that way?
Where did you go? (ten years today!)
Ten years ago, I stood beside the wood that held you
I must sit down, my legs are shaking
We let you go, with gifts of plectrums for your journey
And melodies to help you on your way
I'll bleed if you want me to!
I'll serenade before I do
I'll bleed if you want me, to!
On and on although you're gone, candles burn without a flame on
Our final call to you, I know you're listening
How could you leave us that way?
Where did you go? (ten years today!)
Wh-oh-ah!
Wh-oh-ah!
Wh-oh-ah!
I'll bleed, if you want me to (I'll bleed if you want me to!)
I'll bleed if you want me, to!
On and on although you're gone, candles burn without a flame on
Our final call to you, I know you're listening
How could you leave us that way?
Where did you go? (ten years today!)
Where did you go? (ten years today!)
Where did you go?
How could you leave us that way?
Where did you go? (ten years today!).
11. Cries In Vain - Lyrics:
Lord, you know I've cried a thousand tears tonight
But nothing seems to quench the thirst you keep on craving
But now I need an answer to my prayers and you're not there
So why I think you listen?
Listen!
Has no one told you, your cries are all in vain
And everyone keeps trying to take that all away
Has no one told you, your cries are all in vain
Your cries!
Lord, I can't disguise the look inside my eyes
The more I try to look away the more I'm staring
But now I need an answer to my prayers and you're not there
So why I think you listen?
Listen!
Has no one told you, your cries are all in vain
And everyone keeps trying to take that all away
Has no one told you, your cries are all in vain
Your cries!
You cries in vain
You cries in vain
You cries in vain
You cries in vain
I look away!
Has no one told you, your cries are all in vain
And everyone keeps trying to take that all away
Has no one told you, your cries are all in vain
Your cries!
Has nobody told you when you look away
The stories they told you still run through your veins
Has nobody told you when you look away
The stories they told you still run through your...
Run through your veins!
12. Spit You Out - Lyrics:
I am what I am, so I...
Spit you out!
Do I, cut the ties? or do I, hold on tight?!
Time has come for me to realize
All those things I loved I now despise
But it's, my life!
(I'm taking back what's mine!)
It's, our, time!
(To rise above!)
It's, my, life!
(I'm taking back what's mine!)
It's, our, time!
Your pictures on my wall
With this around me I don't feel it's over
I've never felt this way before
With you around me I don't feel it's over
I am what I am, so I...
Spit you out!
Can you justify how I...
Time has come for me to realize
All those things I loved I now despise
But it's, my life!
(I'm taking back what's mine!)
It's, our, time!
(To rise above!)
It's, my, life!
(I'm taking back what's mine!)
It's, our, time!
Your pictures on my wall
With this around me I don't feel it's over
I've never felt this way before
With you around me I don't feel it's over now!
The end!
I know you're faking!
You try to get me back!
I know you're faking it!
The end!
(..feel it's over..)
(..feel it's over..)
(Bullet for my Valentine! crowd cheering)
(How ya doin' everyone?! crowd cheers again)
But it's, my life!
(I'm taking back what's mine!)
It's, our, time!
(To rise above!)
It's, my, life!
(I'm taking back what's mine!)
It's, our, time!
To rise above!
13. The End - Lyrics:
Our hair reminds me of a time when were we once were
Your fingernails that marked my back now rot in earth
The sheets we slept in blew away, and now the storm is over
The taste of you inside my mouth remains, but still I'm hearing
There's no love, everybody's crying
There's no truth, everyone's misguided
And now the end is here!
There's no more pills to swallow
The bitter taste I feel, won't lead me to tomorrow
Your scent reminds me of a place we used to go
The kisses placed upon my neck show signs of, no return!
The bed we fucked in, smells the same, and now the the stench is fading
The taste of you inside my mouth remains but still I'm hearing
There's no love, everybody's crying
There's no truth, everyone's misguided
And now the end is here!
There's no more pills, to swallow!
The bitter taste I feel, won't lead me to, tomorrow!
Cries for anger
Lies for power
Fighting for nothing, is what you were born for
Cries for anger
Lies for power
Fighting for nothing, is what you were born for
AHH!
YAAH!
Cries for anger
Lies for power
Fighting for nothing, is what you were born for
Cries for anger
Lies for power
Fighting for nothing, is what you were born, for!
