1. The Light Has Died
If I told you I'm a liar, would you still believe?
Is it the actual fact or just the message you need?
Could you turn a blind eye to put yourself at ease?
Going through the motions, only hear what you please
So it's falling apart again, but you'll hold it together if you can
And it seems all right, but you don't know why
The holes in your palms are bleeding you dry
If I told you there's no hope, what would that do for you?
Would you just lay down and die because you know that its true?
Could you stand knowing full well that you're fucked in the end
Or just run away and tell me that I'm wrong again
There's a whole wide world of tragedy
So just enjoy the show
'Cause at this point in time we are
So goddamn lost we don't know where to go
You are alone and you won't be saved
You're not forgiven for the mess you made
Save all the tears you cry
You're gonna need them when the well runs dry
Go ahead, open your eyes
The Light Has Died
So it seems to always end the same
In single file we go right down the drain
So you want a way out, then you'll be glad to know
There's not a goddamn place where you can go
Where you're not wrong and we're not fucked
But it should be quick with any luck
So put the kids to bed and say good-bye
Then tell them we're all gonna die
and when they ask what the fuck to do
Just smile and say, "That's up to you..."
Because we've gone too far
and we don't know where we are
Miracles won't save the day
Only you can pave the way
2. No One Loves You
No one loves you
No matter who you might hook
It’s just a chemical reaction to the way that you look
No one cares
No one cares, no matter what they might say
You’re just a vapid piece of meat to be thrown away
It doesn’t make you special
Doesn’t make you anything more than what you are
It doesn’t make this a tragedy
‘Cause love won’t get you very far
You’re alone, You’re alone
and you always were
No one cares, No one cares
and they never did
It’s a shame, It’s a shame
and that’s how it is
But it’s true, but it’s true
No one loves you
It’s just a part of who we are
So throw away what you thought you knew
Black, white, wrong, right, no one gives a fuck for you
From the highest mountain to the deepest grave
No one loves you anyway
No one loves you
No one cares
No one loves you
No one dares
Instead of hating yourself
Now you can see the truth
You should hate everyone else
‘Cause everyone hates you
You’re alone and you’ll always be
You are lost and you always were
You are human and you always are
No one cares and they never did
Are you broken down?
Think it isn’t fair?
Well no one loves you
So no one cares
3. Rip Me From This Flesh
9:30 and the light is gone
some would tell you it’s been dead all along
I’ll take the rain and the dark but it’s not what I need
I know there’s something more but that’s not what I see
10:30 and it’s getting cold
This road to nowhere is getting old
Thought I was right all along
Now I know what’s best
I need the hand of a God
to rip me from this flesh
They say that time will heal
but that’s just part of the deal
‘cause when you turn your back
it’ll pull the knife
then sink it in for the rest of your life
and ghosts of mistakes you made
can’t stay in their fucking grave
They’ll always follow you, but you should know
to dig it deep and bury ‘em down low
It’s another perfect ending
To another perfect day
So sing a song of what’s not to be
and raise your glass up high as you reach
‘cause you are flesh and you are weak
salute the present ‘cause the future’s bleak
but there is always a way out if you seek
And so I found another way, a path
but don’t follow me there
you should stay, right here
it’d be too much to bear
with that cross of yours already weighing you down
it’s much too heavy for the road I found
Cut by cut and line by line
slice, peel and cauterize
The razor goes in then it’s off with the skin
and I burn what’s left to rip me from this flesh
Rip me from this flesh
and I’d gladly make my way to Hell
but it’s so far down
Where’s your God now?
Where’s your God now?
Cut by cut and line by line
slice, peel and cauterize
The razor goes in then it’s off with the skin
and I burn what’s left to rip me from this flesh
4. At A Loss
The moment is over
Now I don’t understand why we haven’t let go
The time has passed
Can’t you see it?
Or do you not know there are some things
that are not meant to be
Are we forcing ourselves into places
we don’t belong?
The foundations we’ve built upon,
what if we’re wrong?
Could we recover?
Do we have a choice?
Is it really worth screaming with only one voice?
Are we lost?
Are we trapped?
Or just never meant to be?
But you don’t have to say you’re sorry,
if I don’t have to say I’m right
So we go, but we know
any hope of coming back is lost
Save your prayers, no one cares
and they won’t get us anywhere
‘Cause we looked too hard for miracles
and this is what it cost
No God to save, no Devil to blame
and now we’re at a loss
We are gone, so long
I hope we don’t start this over again
‘Cause we sailed, but we failed
so that didn’t get us anywhere
and we looked too hard for miracles
now this is what it cost
No God to save, no Devil to blame
and now we’re at a loss
5. We Break By Design
We break by design
Like nothing else
We’ll fuck up things all by ourselves
No cause, no cure
and not a goddamn tear for what we were
Just so you know
every dream of yours is being broken
and we’ve got your silver lining to make sure it’s choking
and when it’s finally dead
we’ll ring it up as a noose
‘cause once your dreams are gone
then we’re coming for you
So say good-bye
then run and hide
because the truth isn’t there
when you close your eyes
and you think you’ve won
and you think you’re saved
when all you’ve done
is dug your grave
And as you sit
and wait to rot
you think about
the choice you’ve got
Forgive and forget
just drift away
or get a hold of yourself
‘cause there’s Hell to pay
This is not a time for peace
So stand!
We break by design
We break, we break
we break then we all follow
won’t cut the ties that bind
so shut your fucking mouth
and get the fuck in line
We break because we’re scared
too scared to see the truth
if no one here will cry for you
then they wouldn’t die for you
and there’s nothing you can do
We break by design
so shut you mouth and close your eyes
everything will be just fine
everything will be just fine
6. No One Is Forgiven
Angel’s don’t fly here he said
nor do mortal men
This is where all dreams are built
So rid yourself of your earthly guilt
The world is yours to have at your whim
all you must do is take it in
But the devil’s in the details
Now do you really think you should
Sell the soul you wrought through Heavenly grace
to the devil in the woods
Is it wrong to need to know?
Just think about all the places you’ll go
Though the joys of Heaven are locked for you
it was built for man, so you can too
build your own and sit upon it’s Earthly throne
Then turn away from the Crown of Thorns
and embrace your fate with a head of horns
No one gets away
in 24 years you’ll pay
Sold your soul for this Earthly shell
Now you think that you know Hell
But I was born in Heaven, now forbidden
No one is forgiven
All you could ever need
is now laid at your feed
Remember this as you fly through the stars
and you wish to learn it all
You may know the world and all it holds
but if you rise, you have to fall
No one gets away
in 24 years you’ll pay
Sold your soul for this Earthly shell
Now you think that you know Hell
But I was born in Heaven, now forbidden
No one is forgiven
Everything you do will come back to you
7. God Eats Children
No one saw this coming
but you never do
it only takes a second
to taint everything you knew
In the time it takes for your day to start
Your whole world could fall apart
Five years from where you were
did you really think you’d be where you are?
Neither did I...
But it’s so easy to blame yourself
So let’s not try
Just shut your mouth and sew your eyes
curl up in a ball, let’s get ready to die
Now doesn’t that feel better still
Well if it doesn’t, it soon will
‘Cause there’s no future from where I stand
While we hope we can
pawn our problems on somebody else
I need the touch of a God, ‘cause I can’t handle myself
But God is hungry
and he needs to eat
So let’s start the feast...
God eats children
He always has
They don’t succumb to fate
they’re just on his plate
because we lined them up
and put them there
then prayed and hoped as if we cared
Because we didn’t see the future coming
Too late to catch, so why start running?
Now when life gets us down
We put our knees on the ground
So if you need us, that’s where we’ll be
No need to worry, we’re not on our feet
Without these prayers, I don’t know what we’d do
It’s pretty scary when it’s only you
8. Failure
Your life is only as good as your next day
But if you try, you might find a way
To think back on a time when we weren’t lost
and we were too young to know the cost
of the games we play and the words we say
and how things don’t disappear when you turn away
But I’d like to think deep down we knew
That just because you believe doesn’t make it true
So we’ll never go home again
and we’ll never be whole again
Time’s only changing us ‘cause that’s what it does
Look back and laugh at what a failure this was
But we also knew there’d be a time
We would have to leave all that behind
and say good-bye to who you were
While you try to figure out just who you are
Now how’s that working out for you so far?
‘Cause I’ll never go home again
and I’ll never be whole again
Time’s only fucking me ‘cause that’s what it does
Look back and laugh at what a failure this was
So you’ll never go home again
and you’ll never be whole again
Time’s only changing you ‘cause that’s what it does
Look back and laugh at what a failure this was
9. Never Meant To Shine
Let’s form a giant circle
everyone join hands
and we’ll sing our favorite songs
for as long as we can
Let’s form a giant circle
you know how it goes
and we’ll sing our favorite songs
until our heart’s explode
We could have built a better future
but that’s a little too cliched
We could have stopped this coming
but it’s no fun that way
We could have built a better future
but we missed that train back then
So let’s join our hands and sing our songs
We should have built a better end
One day we’ll all be free
but that’s probably a sin
so let’s form a giant circle
that way everyone wins
If I can’t hear you
You’re not speaking
If I can’t see you
You’re not there
So if I close my eyes
and I plug my ears
I don’t have to care
I hope there’s cake
I hope there’s punch
A small snack
a light lunch
or so I heard
at the end of the world
We were never meant to shine
10. I See Black
You know it goes away, they say
as if that makes it true
I know it hurts today, but hey
what can you do
I guess it’s easy to say, you know
until it happens to you
and that’s something that I have to deal with
I only wish it wasn’t so damn hard
just to let things go
‘cause I’m not doing so well, so far
but I hope it won’t show
In case you couldn’t tell
the scars should give me away
and that’s something that I have to deal with
if only for another day
So now I’m picking up the pieces
to see what I can save
I only had the best intentions
but that’s how the road to Hell is paved
and that’s where I am
it’s not by choice, but still
I’ll take what I can
‘cause I still hear a voice that says
I gave myself away again
we all know the song but kinda hum the words
fucked one more time but we never learn
Somehow I know that this is just another phase
and in the give and take something had to break
and now I stand amazed
That I walked away and there I stayed
but it hurts more than you’ll know
I never thought this would be easy
and that’s just the way it goes
And I get carried away by the things I say
at the end of the day someone had to pay
I’m just surprised I volunteered
to be the one who’s cast aside
to leave it all and not know why
I won’t find much comfort here
‘cause I see black and I think it shows
but I really hope you’ll never know
what it’s like to feel this alone
and I guess that I will never learn
another bridge that’s fucking burned
and just because I say I’m alright
doesn’t mean I sleep at night
11. The Beauty of Decay (v. 2005)
Sometimes we find what we struggle for
but then it turns into a wreck
‘cause no one minds the vulture’s claws
until they’re planted in your neck
As you suffer, you may cry
but we’ll just feed you a lullaby
The more you struggle, the faster you sink
and this place only gets colder
but if you listen then you may just hear
The weight of the world as it’s breaking your shoulders
Now take a moment to pretend
This is not the fucking end
Now take you seat as the curtain goes up
They say the world is a stage
One more regret as the lid’s coming down
They say the world is a grave
So grab a bullet for your hopes and dreams
and just blow them away
‘Cause that’s the price that we have to pay
For the beauty of decay
