Delusions 03:51
It's when you're so surrounded that you feel most alone Reaching for the comfort in a person that you'll never know Your screams fall on deaf ears, You waste your breath 'Cause to them you are no-one, They wouldn't care if you were dead Don't dare put your faith into the lies of the lost ones Don't dare put your faith into the demise of the forgotten sons Throw yourself into, a pit of delusion Throw yourself away, become all you claim to hate When you've lost your path again Don't come running back You'll always be lost Always be searching for something that isn't there Throw yourself away Become all you claim to hate You throw yourself away Suffocate You think you know disdain But I'll show you real hate

Collapse 03:25
Give up everything for false ideals and misinformation We know you will Yeah we know you will Call to the refugees Lost in Society Your lives are forfeit to slavery A monetary indulgence I pay no subtleties to the words I feel This world is crumbling and we're losing everything Are you listening? The children of underclass homes One day you'll become The void obeying the debtors throne Put your hand to the sky As the world relapses Fuelled by the drug Lie to yourself As it all collapses Give up everything for false ideals, misinformation We know you will Put your hand to the sky As the world relapses Fuelled by the drug Lie to yourself As it all collapses Put your hand to the sky As the world relapses Fuelled by the drug Lie to yourself As it all collapses Give up everything for false ideals and misinformation We know you will Yeah we know you will

Heartburn 04:52
What do you know about truth, When all you hear is lies? You don't really know, Anything that matters in this life. You just walk and walk and walk, To the sound of the drums. When you give into everything you're running from. What do you know about safety, When the fire's let be? Breathing in the smoke, They say, "We are going to set you free" But you don't really know, You don't really see the powers that be, Will crush your soul, Your freedom is forfeit, All hope is lost to the dormant. It's getting harder, To read these headlines, As rage inside burns, Across your eyes. So pick up your feet, And pick up your dreams, 'cause we won't let them be crushed, By the men who hold us back. What to do you know about silence? Why do you lie and cheat and steal for the right to exist, Think about it, Is that all there really is? Your freedom is forfeit, All hope for more is lost to the fate of the dormant. Your freedom is forfeit, All hope for more is lost to the fate of the poor. It's getting harder, To read these headlines, As rage inside burns, Across your eyes. So pick up your feet, And pick up your dreams, 'cause we won't let them be crushed, By the men who hold us back. It's getting harder, To read these headlines, As rage inside burns, Across your eyes. So pick up your feet, And pick up your dreams, 'cause we won't let them be crushed. What do you know about truth, When all you hear is lies? You don't really know, Anything that matters in this life.

Ideologies 04:41
Standing there like a hole in the system Resist the gravity of society The endless production line Of waste and lies and hate and I can’t make my point any more clear To resist is to run in fear We are bound to cycles Orbiting freedom in search of the right words The words of a lost man The words of the hollow man Upholds the pillars of establishment The words of the honest man Will be lost unto history Raise Your hands To be chained down where you stand Raise Your hands To be chained down where you stand Words entice I can’t fight I will fall So the worms will feast on Me Lies spat from minds disconnected From the world that they claim to know You only feel malevolence Contempt for all you know Raise Your hands To be chained down where you stand Raise Your hands To be chained down where you stand They’d arm the world to the teeth Put guns in hands of the children Eye for an eye, Lie for a lie The world will burn with the blood on their hands They’d arm the world to the teeth Put guns in hands of the children Eye for an eye, Lie for a lie The world will burn with the blood on their hands Distortion of innocence from birth Ideology contaminates the need for pity You had a chance to save them You had a chance to save them from the waves Facedown in the sea But you let them die They suffer the hands of the tide You couldn’t care less There’s no money in live refugees You let them die They suffer the hands of the tide You couldn’t care less There’s no money in live refugees

Castles 03:23
So I build it up, built it up on myself When everything goes wrong I put my faith in the white noise Distorted lines rise against my walls And the pressure builds Until I cannot hear at all Until I cannot hear at all So I just I just hide in the darkness of my room Blocking out every moment Every moment that comes too soon I build it up like a castle, my fortress, my keep To hold in every whimper and weep that I let slip From the pride that I refuse to swallow Is this a path that I am doomed to follow? So I just I just hide in the darkness of my room Blocking out every moment Every moment that comes too soon And I realise I am better off Alive on the inside And with each waking breath I lose hold of this rope around my neck So I just lay here With my head in my hands Head in my hands Silence the screams inside my head (You're not good enough, you're not good enough) Someone please, let me forget (You're not good enough, you're not good enough) Broken down into pieces of what it is What you feel is emotion paralysis Cold heart, cold skin on cold bones The corpse of a dead soul Trying to find home But what is home to the mind in a mad life? Hiding from the blackness of a black knife Trying to take control the only way you know Will let you forget and finally let go And I realise I am better off Alive on the inside And with each waking breath I lose hold of this rope around my neck So I just lay here With my head in my hands Head in my hands (Head in my hands)
