1. So Blind
Wasted truths and useful lies, burning red in dead eyes.
Can't repair the tainted soul. The heart is so cold.
CHORUS
Bringin' the pain, bearing the loss.
Hating the life, corrupting the cross.
Kickin' the dog, breaking the mind.
Oh why am I so blind?
Corrupting life with the cries, wishing that your body dies.
Takin' the needle, shooting the vein. Life is gone, bringin' the rain.
CHORUS
2. Lace Labor
Strap me down to cut me up.
Make life new. I smell the blood.
I can't fight. I can't scream.
Make me hang on your f-cking strings.
Sew my mouth shut and seal my eyes.
Leave my ears to hear your lies.
Make my ribs grow through my chest.
Destroy everything below my spine.
CHORUS
I must break your strings
to tear the paper walls away.
Behind the stitched eyes staring
as Lace Labor leads the way.
Teach me pain and butchery.
Made me your slave for all I see.
I can't run. I can't hide.
This labor will take my life.
Stretching veins and burning skin.
Left to the cold to do me in.
What have you made me? What have you done?
Someone save me. Look what have I become.
Feed me pain, the way of life.
Spill my blood to save your mind.
Painting life like a symphony.
Torment on the misery canvas.
CHORUS
I must break your strings ( I am not alone,)
to tear the paper walls away. (just a shadow of my soul.)
Behind the stitched eyes staring (No use in weeping for me.)
as Lace Labor leads the way.
3. Horror Drive
HAUNTING all there is to be.
BURNING inside of me.
BROKEN, frayed too fast.
SCARED nothing's gonna last.
CHORUS
Heart's beating so hard,
Screaming so loud.
In the hour that you die,
You are mine.
REPEAT
RAGE is what I'm fed.
FATE, the hour of dread.
DARKNESS in these walls.
SMILE! I'm cutting you down.
CHORUS
Heart's beating so hard,
Screaming so loud.
In the hour that you die,
You are mine.
Heart's beating so hard,
Screaming so loud.
In the hour that you die,
You are my horror drive.
4. Give In
Pale blue soul you search for the better you. Pale blue soul don't you ever give up.
Don't you ever let me in. Don't you ever take my hand.
CHORUS
I'm the worst thing for you.
Corrupt what I touch.
I'm the best thing for you.
Give in to me.
REPEAT
Come with me I can show you what life is like when you have to make it yourself.
I will now corrupt your vision and show you that you get what you pay for.
CHORUS
Pale blue soul you search for the better you.
Pale blue soul don't you ever give up.
Don't you ever let me in.
Don't you ever take my hand.
CHORUS
I'm the worst thing for you.
Corrupt what I touch.
I'm the best thing for you.
Give in to me.
I'm the worst thing for you.
Corrupt what I touch.
I'm the best thing for you.
Now you've got your hooks in me.
5. My Worst Fears
