1. Forgiv'r
You think I don't know there's a spike in my eye?
It fell from a hole in the sky
Quite uninvited, refusing to leave
Now it digs in further and further
Looking for answers I know I'm a fraud
I know I can't win them all
I can't stand to fall
If they knew the things I'd done, do you know what they'd say?
Lock him away!
I used to star in a one man show
I used to abuse the things that I know
I used you to get what I need
Now I see I was mistaken
It may have been I was stuck in between
What you say and what you mean
Not anymore!
All it takes is no mistakes
I failed one hundred thousand times over
Now I'm at your mercy
There's no doubt I won't sell out
If I had one more chance to start over
I am at your mercy
I've done things I'm not proud of
Things I don't speak aloud of
It's all behind me
Left to waste away without a trace
I've had my fill and now I'm gone
2. The Fuse that Burned too Fast
I wake
I drive
I seal the anger inside
Everyday, a little more
Building on what was before
Come and go, one to know
Red Eyes
Everywhere I go
I see him staring back at me
And I can see his Red Eyes sending painwaves
Crushing me, crushing me, rushing blood into my head
It all builds in time
A bomb set and primed
Supported by a weak man's pride
Try my best to not react
Need something to help distract
My mind
But it will return
Drawling down my spine
The fires blazing underneath
With razor teeth bite, sinking, holding, locking
Onto me, onto me, rushing blood into my head
I know I have nothing to gain
And everything to lose
This town has got the worst of me
I don't care!
Enraging, fury unfolding, taking over
He always gets the worst of me - I don't care
My rage builds inside
I'm losing my mind
When I see those
Red Eyes!
Everyday, a little more
Building on what was before
Come and go, one to know
RED EYES!
Everything I see
Reminds me of what was before
I can't ignore his Red Eyes sending painwaves
Crushing me, crushing me, rushing blood into my head
His Red Eyes
Are all I see
Enraging me
Fury unfolding
Why can't I ever be free?
Run - he chases me
Hide - he finds me
Fight - defeats me, hits me, beats me
Run - he's faster
Hide - he's there
Haunting me forever, evermore
3. Magnified
A story into legend
Brave man into a hero
Disorder into chaos
A mortal man becomes
A hellspawn or an angel
And all is different
Every thing has changed
Put your ear to the ground
Capture every sound
Of transmutation
An amplification
To the highest degree
An accelerated soul
What was before, no longer
What's now in store is stronger
Intensified, body and mind
Became a freak of humankind
Within his right to choose this?
Eternity may not agree
Take off your face, swallow the moon
If you don't see, can't be immune
What couldn't be done has now begun
Keep looking up to see what's won
Make sure it's worth the travels
Going in blind, no change of mind
A change is coming
Now it lays its claim
On human nature
A substitution a mind set in its way
Thus he kills his old self
Emerge from the husk of his old self
Magnified a hundred power
Centralia changes he
A powerhouse is born
Disorder into chaos
Good into a saint
Monster from a madman
A hero from the great
Everything is different
And everything has changed
Story into legend
A few into a swarm
Inflamed from an inferno
Tempest from a storm
Everything is different
And everything has changed
4. Sonar Con Aventura
Slow down
Brain is letting go
I'm tired of being awake
I find I'm floating at an incredible rate
Can't help but be overcome
Paralyzed by wonder
Dry rain and silent thunder
Painting the deep of my mind
A world of surprise
Coral caves and silver skies
If I awaken
What will I remember? Will I remember?
Speed up, don't fall behind
Feet barely touch the ground
What do I expect to find
Accelerate to catch up before it all passes by
Can't help but be overcome
It lasts for minutes
It lasts for light years
It ends at the other side of tonight
Caught in the world behind my eyes
Escape to the world behind my eyes
5. Eeny, Meeny, Miny, Die
Smokey fields with secrets yield
What you can't fix your eyes on
The darkened sky cannot be pryed
Apart from the horizon
... and so this is life
It will go anywhere
Indifferent of a begger's lamentation
Some trees rot away
Others will meet the axe
Their lives lived blinded
Today we stand
Tomorrow we fly
Pick apart a perfect plan
And alter all you know
What's done is done; and will ever be
On the street, the two would meet
It looked like he would miss it
But one must have just misjudged
And left a body, twisted
He fell on his back
His eyes wide open looking upwards
Fading from crimson to nothing
Whether it's a mistake,
Fully intentional, it happens
One thing leads to another
Today we stand
Tomorrow we fly
Today we kill
Tomorrow we die
Pick apart a perfect plan
And alter all you know
What's done is done; and will ever be
What's done is done.
