1. Born is the Enemy
Born Is The Enemy
Cold and freezing
Holding nothing
I did all this for you
Don't even call me your friend
You will not lose in the end
I see in front of me
Born is the enemy now
Cold and freezing
Holding nothing
I did all this for you
Now there's nothing left for me to do
This is the start of something new
Stains of your guilt are left for you
I see in front of me
Born is the enemy now
Down
You're trying to bring me down
You're not gonna break me
I did all this for you
You're going down
2. Ignorance of Bliss
Ignorance Of Bliss
Come down to earth he mentions
Full of his best intentions
It's now time for an occupation
Time to make some money with that
education
Come down to ground
Mortgage bound
So proud
Can't you see these dreams will never
end themselves?
Set me free, I will find the beauty of
this world
Come down to earth he mentions
Full of their blind intention
It.s not time for a inoculation
Time to make some money with your
new foundation
Tied
I won't be tied down
3. Blood of Angels
The Blood Of Angels
Take this meager offering
Accomplice to your conspiracy
Break down my configuration
Hoping to find a better day
It's never what they say
It's never what they say
It's all about the silence in-between
Into a pain that works for me
The blod of angels
Behind a door we learn to bleed
The blood of angels
Make this another sacrifice
Affording the vulture's appetite
Bring me a slice of consolation
Knowing that there's another way
All this had to bring around
my ignorance
All this had to bring around
my innocence
4. Countdown
Countdown
I now see you through your own eyes
You are more than you realise
I can't explain what you can't see
But you are all that fills me
Countdown, counting down for me
All roads are leading to your town
And it's some place I've never been
Countdown, counting down for me
Please don't seduce me with your smile
Because i'm only human
Countdown to you
Countdown to you
I try not to but I'm only falling faster
Countdown to you
Not supposed to but i need you here
forever
It's not like this is meant to be
You are so much better than me
I can't explain what's happening
But I'm losing this fight
Feel a way home but you never
Feel
5. Prism of You
Prism Of You
My life's been holding it's weight
Beneath a blackened sky
So hard I've worked just for
the dreams to pass me by
Now when the time is right
for me to win this fight
You come along with all your
bells and whistles
Head... I'm in above my head for you
It's way too early or late
But never comes in time
Is this the hell i get for
all my other crime?
No matter how i try I can't
look in your eyes
I need to turn away before
this fills me
Head...
I'm in above my head for you
Head...
I'm in above my head for good
Why?
Turn away from this pain
I wrote this song for you but you'll
never know
6. End of Days
End Of Days
Is it a piece you want
or is it peace you want?
Is this your fatherland?
Is it the holy land?
Am I your enemy or a best friend to be?
Will you meet up with me
over the weekend?
All they say
Misconstrue
Word of war without proof
Can't you see I'm like you?
Brave
I will not live in fear
even with the bombs in sight
I will not disappear
This is the beginning of my life
Is this a holy war or an oil power war?
Is this another phase?
Is it the end of days?
Am I your enemy or a best friend to be?
Will you meet up with me
over the weekend?
Precious days of our youth
Now a war, what's the use?
Can't you see I'm like you?
Brave
With all the pain and suffering
Brought from the choices they make
How can we close the gap?
This has got to end
Another fake democracy fills
our children with hate
What are our choices when it's
us or them?
7. Severance Day
Severance Day
Call this restitute
Call this open truth
Call this my salute
Call this severance.
Call this retribute
Call this misspent youth
Call this my abise
This is my severance day
My way
and it's all of my soul that i give
and it's my way
Call this non-dilute
Call this ill repute
Call this tainted fruit
Call this severance
Call this over-shoot
Call this double proof
Call this my uproot
This is my severance day
My way
8. Sellout
Sellout
Well it's safe to say your credibility
Went without your sensibility
All that's left are memories of
What you were supposed to be
I never, I never, I never wanna be
I never, I never, I never wanna be
The sold out lich that you are
Not even God can save you
How did you get conceited?
This is the price you pay
What will you do defeated?
Sold out, sold out
Well it's safe to say your credibility
Went without your sensibility
All that's left are memories of
What you were supposed to be
I never, I never, I never wanna be
I never, I never, I never wanna be
The sold out lich that you are
Don't you know that they hate you?
How did you get conceited?
This is the price you pay
What will you do defeated?
Sold out, sold out
Where was your sense of reason?
We didn't get a say
Wronged by the tides of treason
You sold out, sold out
(You're a fucking sellout lich,
You're a fucking sellout lich,
You're a fucking sellout)
9. September
September
He never talked about it yet it remained
and the emotion of it, again betrayed
How could he hold his head high?
He never talked about it again
He said, let yourself be born again
He said, all you were is all you'll be
He couldn't live without it
before the rain
There's not regret about it
While in the fray
He took a spoonful of pain
He didn't think about it, he said
You'll go your own way
First Sunday of September
On this great day
10. Beggars with Knives
Beggars With Knife
What you wanna do?
What you wanna see?
Is it not the truth that you want from me?
Now you walk away filled with dignity
and your lies
These lies they wield with knives
No (another lie)
No (another knife)
I'll never let this pain be my enemy
No (another lie)
No (another knife)
You'll never be a part of me
Now you've seen the truth
Felt a part of me
What is it you spew when you're on
the street?
Now you walk away filled with dignity
and your lies.
How could you promise the fruits
of yesterday?
I won't hold you
Will I concede?
11. Sibling
Sibling
I needed a song for you
It's not too easy being so fucking positive
When your life is filled with pain
I nkow it's been hard for you
But now you're old enough
To find the strength within
Believe me it's wrong to do
All of that wasted time inside
Just to do it all again
I know it's been hard for you
But now I've had enough
You've got to learn to swim
Comedown do this for me
Pick yourself up and breathe in
But now I've had enough
You've got to learn to swim
Your feelings of hate for you
Are pretty fucking hard to shake
When your past is filled with shame
I know it's been hard for you
But know the time has come
You either sink or swim
