1. High Rate Extinction
Reign over you another day
Take all I can
Slave to me there's no other way
Break all I can
Come and taste me
Stay and praise me
Take all I can while I burn you down
Weak man
Weak man
You know you never will be free
Come for you time after time and again
Crawl with me
Give me what I need from you
Don't question why
On your knees in front of me
Weak man
Weak man
2. All I Had (I Gave)
How long have I given all I've got?
Here I stand
My days and nights now are solitude
I struggle on
I've paid my price
All I had I gave
So much still lingers inside my head
I've lost it all
No trace of tolerance I can find
An empty heart
I've paid my price
All I had I gave
Save all that you feel for me
3. Will That Never Dies
I stand beside all that I am
Alive through all my fears
A drive inside me to succeed
Will that never dies
I'm spilling all my problems to you
I cry
You're deaf
So no one's hearing me at all
A weaker man would lose his faith
So many days without end
Undying need to take it all
Will that never dies
I've never turned my head to see
How it might have been
If I were weaker than my peers
I'd have given in
4. Fixation
Burning hunger to rid you from
my mind
You control me, the blind leading
the blind
You are poison but you numb all
my pain
Dying slowly, dying life that you
drain
My blood is toxic and my veins
burn for you
You are nothing but you´re all
that I do
You won´t break me
5. No Quarter (Led Zeppelin cover)
Close the door, put out the light.
No, they won’t be home tonight.
The snow falls hard and don’t you know?
The winds of thor are blowing cold.
They’re wearing steel that’s bright and true
They carry news that must get through, oooh
They choose the path where no-one goes.
They hold no quarter, they hold no quarter.
Walking side by side with death
The devil mocks their every step
The snow drives back the foot that’s slow
The dogs of doom are howling more
They carry news that must get through
To build a dream for me and you
They choose the path where no-one goes.
They hold no quarter, they ask no quarter.
The pain, the pain without quarter.
They ask no quarter.
Yeah! without quarter, quarter, yeah!
The dogs of doom are howling more!
I hear the dogs of doom are howling more!
6. Self-Inflicted
I'll never lose the scars you gave
No longer can I live in peace
I'll carry anguish to the grave
Frustration that I can't release
Self-Inflicted
Self-Inflicted
To see you smile it cuts me deep
Knowing that you're no longer here
I see you dying as I sleep
Wish I could leave it all:
Self-Inflicted
Self-Inflicted
All my pain is
All this pain is
Self-Inflicted
Self-Inflicted
7. Negative Pollution
Burn by love I taste the memories
I lick my wounds with pride
Count my days and nights in misery
Fueled by this rage inside
I can't look back
Can't look back
Nothing you could ever say to me
Could drain this swollen mind
Driving nails into my hands and feet
You left me crucified
I can't look back
Can't look back
8. Existence Is Punishment
I gave my heart and soul to you my friend
You let me fall
If you could only see what's in my heart
You'd take my hand
I've lived this life as a man would do
Why's it so hard to find the truth?
My faith is strong within myself
I bleed of pride
Inside
I won't forgive
You can't take it back now
It's to hard to swallow
No words
No conviction
I've found the truth inside myself
But I am still doing time
Opened my eyes to what is real
This world is hard
It's cold
It's agony
9. Holding Nothing
Holding nothing
Scratch the walls just to survive
You can't fathom what that's like
You can listen to you lies
In the end you'll do your time
Holding nothing
Staring at myself again
What I see would swallow you
In your eyes I'll always be nothing
Never did you understand
Never did you give respect
Never did you ever love
Never
Never
10. I Have Failed
Rule me no more
I control my mind
I will not give myself to you again
Weakness is pain
Your strength is twisting me
I've never felt so helpless and alone
I have failed
Nowhere to turn
There's growth in pain I feel it
I pray to God it's not too late for me
Hard to believe on man could lose to such
All that I've lost can never be conceived
I have failed
