1. Welcome To The City
Words are only words, but we speak only truth. He whispers, "This is what it feels like when you feel nothing. I can taste the salt of the waves.
We cannot see for miles like those before us, we can only look to the horizon, while keeping faith and never fading in a city where we're born just to die."
2. A Modern Masterpiece Of Horror
Open your eyes, look at the reflection that burns into your skin. What do I do now? am I myself anymore? My self-subscribed conscious monster. are you still breathing? I must say you have interesting aspects of what the world should be. You speak with a language all your own, and I am paralyzed to know I can read you. Claim Presence of your hidden agenda. You are not an individual. If you'd look in the mirror, there are two of you. [Of me]. I feel Torn, I feel empty. Leave the bodies in the dirt, face first. Am I myself anymore. Which part of me, of us, is playing the role, myself or reflection? I have become the opposite. I am the American Dream I am lesson's unreleased! A method of satisfaction, honed from years of misuses of excuses gone wrong. I Can Read You. This cannot be what it looks like, an unfamiliar face withers in the dust. But this is me, this is who I am. This is me looking into the mirror.
3. Stepping Away From Defeat
Just look inside yourself, and break free from their grasp. This is a turning point, this is your last chance. When you get that far, you'll know what to do. If you get that far, you'll leave them all behind! Take another step and you'll be further from despair. No one can hold you back, no one can bring you down This is a fight that can't be lost, you must pull through. For when you do, nothing can ever.... break you. Take Another step and you will prevail. If you look back it will only lead to shattered hope. Just focus on forward motion, don't ever turn around. If you have dreams, make sure they are those of your own. Follow through, take the steps and they'll come true. Do not take the hand which has dragged you down Push away and look ahead to find your guiding light. We refuse to be told what to do And we refuse... to let you... hold us back....Take another step and you'll be further from despair. No one can hold you back, no one can bring you down This is a fight that can't be lost, you must pull through. For when you do nothing can ever.... break you.
4. In Search Of Words
Put your face down to the pavement and watch the snow-laden fog fly with the wind. Under the table with here feet on your lap. A simple stares never made you so numb. Slow down it breaks with the tide and it still moves closer to your heart. Let the streetlights guide your wanders, and the bottle set the stage for summer. So master the art of self-conclusion and hope to breathe in the morning. Let the streetlights guide your wanders, and the bottle set the stage for summer. "Baby, I'm at your bedside and your not getting your medication, baby!"
5. Eclectic Sounds
6. The Fine Art Of Pretending
And now it's time for us to say goodbye. What was considered a friend is now lost and gone. I never felt I was one for you anyway. So maybe this is the end, but the end is all we need. We're different from you, I hope that if we do tell you goodbye, it will be for good. With this pain, you show no care. It's time to fix things, and let you die away. And someday, i wont be there and you'll turn to find me, I'm not there. But that doesn't really matter to you does it? With our spirits bruised and battered, why did you let it go this path? You don't need me, and that's the way it is, why did you let this happen? These are the words I have to speak. And this is goodbye my friend. I wont miss you, when you're gone! I've moved on and you're still the same. Let the tears add up, I've moved on and forgotten your name. Your name is a faded memory. Shards of glass count for the pieces that you've made of my trust. It can never be fixed, you can never mend the pieces back together. You caused this. Everything was fine before you came along, and everything will be fine long after you're gone!
7. To Be Evil
With my friend called Misery who lurks in a damaged world, he calls to me in the most horrific of dreams. A friend, or enemy? He is the lonely star outside of this closed universe. Misery is our twisted soul who suffers the darkest of pains. Beauty, a thing not believed in to my friend Evil. He travels like a ghost in the shadows, his heart is dying for any form of life, a form yet so distant.
8. Grey And Everything In Between
They walk the streets by the thousands, slowly marching to their imminent end. No one saw this coming, no one can believe it's true... but it's here. Right in front of us, the end of the way things used to be. We'll walk these streets with empty pockets barely scraping by, pushing onwards another seemingly hopeless day. Filled with a hundred burning churches and a thousand terrifying cries, longing to be heard. For they stand and wait for the long awaited revelation. This is the change. This is our time!
9. The Final March
We sing like we are the wind, and burn like fire. A feeling so unheard of, yet so familiar. This is the bridge not to be crossed, but we take in strive and take each step as if it were the last. With each final step we get more lost in our own selfish motives. To be drawn out on paper instead of spoken words. We're all victims to these actions and we all have this guilty conscience. And we're all guilty... But I will stand up and admit to my mistakes. When we can learn to look back and forgive what we've wronged, that is when we can move on! This city is painted black and white.
