1. I Am Nothing
I AM NOTHING
Aware of some, aware of nothing more,
I have no faith I cannot settle scores,
You hope some day, I'll move out of the dark,
Your wishes fail 'cause I am nothing...
-Chorus-
Slave to it all once again I fear,
Slave to it all are the ones most dear,
Thrilling you all with my tales not real,
You believe in them time after time...
On hopeless days I sit and justify,
A wholesome life, of which I'm so deprived,
I hope and pray, that I won't stay around,
Too long to stain, 'cause I am nothing...
-Chorus-
Hope someday?
I could be wrong...
2. Mouth
MOUTH
Feel so low some days
And only I can taste
Resent security
Obscuring all I see
In my mind
In my mouth
In my soul
Only you provide these symptoms that I show
I could go out in style
Go back from where I came
But luck sees to us all
And rarely plays the game
We've seen it all through many years of lonesome hell
Back to a place where we all terminate
3. Fader
FADER
It's in my heart; it's in your soul,
You choose to judge,
Is that your role?
Don't analyse or complicate,
You'll critisise, you can't relate...
And now you want some understanding.
What's my point of view?
-Chorus-
Then I'll just fade away
When I hear all your lies I choke
Then I'll just fade away
Suffering from the times you spoke I fade
Regarding more? just seems much less.
So cynical you must confess.
I'm dying here, completely blind
Your will to live- just dampens mine,
And now you want some understanding...
What's my point of view?
4. Look at Me Now
LOOK AT ME NOW
I need it the most, most subtle
Unnecessary trouble.
Abusing too much, regardless
The smallest taste is harmless
So look at me now
So look at me now
So eager to say, it's "nothing"
The lifestyle that you're offering...
A promise of hope has shattered
But does it really matter?
So look at me now
So look at me now
With alluring honesty
It seems my only crutch,
My acquired profanity
It seems to be. it seems to be too much
So look at me now
So look at me now
5. Illumination
ILLUMINATION
Always, sometimes, always seems to be
Chaos, crisis, always feeds off me,
Then you'll get carried away,
The trauma is all too real.
And ohh too much, it's in my soul don't let it show
And ohh too much, it's in my head don't let it grow again
As I'm walking I'm breathless, i'd welcome clarity
My final excitement was failing to agree
Then you'll get carried away
The drama is all too near...
And ooh too much, it's in my soul don't let it show
And ooh, too much, it's in my head don't let it grow again
6. Something Real
SOMETHING REAL
Array of fortunate life
But could you live through the fight
No you couldn't...
All the years of sheltered emotion
All these years I've seen no devotion
From you I could offer honesty
If everyday offered something real
Decay of fortune and might
But would you stand up and fight
No you wouldn't
All these years without any notion
All the years I've seen no devotion from you
7. Divided
DIVIDED
This your only grace.
The art of conversation,
Regarding common sense.
As merely an infliction,
Divided we stand
Divided we stand
Maybe you're content.
Relying on religion,
You steal without consent.
Just consummates my theory,
Divided we stand
Divided we stand
Divided we'll stand.
Regardless we'll fall.
How subtle the words we've come to know,
Divided we stand.
Determined to fall.
Just like this hollow world that sleeps inside of me................
Divided we stand
Divided we stand
8. Sell It to the World
SELL IT TO THE WORLD
It's not without it's consequence
It's not without its joy
Sell it to myself
Sell it to myself
Then sell it to the world
It's not without belligerence
It's not without a ploy
Sell it to myself
Sell it to myself
Then sell it to the world
It thrives in one fraternity
And slowly will destroy
Sell it to myself
Sell it to myself
then sell it to the world
9. Never Again
NEVER AGAIN
Murder more or less,
The anger rages
Blame your loneliness,
Blame your situation
The essence is how
Much pleasure allowed
Solution is stealing
The times that you try,
So many must die,
Their loss so appealing
Murder more or less
The sense engages
Blame unwillingness
Blame your complications
The essence is how,
Much pleasure allowed,
Solution is stealing
Times that you try
So many must die
Their loss appealing
Is it too much to say?
Never again, never again
Is it too much to say?
Never again, never again
10. Control
CONTROL
Set you heart at a pace no one could follow
Until its right in the face no one would swallow
We the subtle damned, refuse to follow
And we are determined to control
So many hours in the day in which you'll suffer
The saviour you delegate just basks in power
We the subtle damned, refuse to follow
And we are determined to control
We've lost it all
We breed contempt
With years to go a wealth of debt
A simple retreat
11. No Reason
NO REASON
But you say its all over, you're down by the water
There something's you can't conceal,
It's the same old show,
Maybe you don't know,
Go and find some reasons to live....
Always a mistake I'm selfless,
Always a mistake I feel,
But there's many times when you seem so shallow,
There's many times when you're without worth
But you say it's all over, you're down by the water,
They're something's you can't conceal,
It's the same old show,
Maybe you don't know,
Go and find some reasons to live....
There are different ways to hear this,
There are different ways to learn,
And there maybe years when you're lost in darkness
Maybe years when you're incomplete
But you say its all over, you're down by the water,
There something's you can't conceal,
It's the same old show,
Maybe you don't know,
Go and find some reasons to live....
12. World Pretending
WORLD PRETENDING
Washed out your simple world,
But it seems to reappear,
Without, your simple words,
You cannot interfere
And now its so absurd what you're saying to me now
Your worlds pretending
You're saying to me now
Your worlds pretending
You're saying to me now
Your worlds pretending
And for your "so called" friends
They always seemed so dear
But when it all got worse
They seemed to disappear
And now its so absurd what you're saying to me now
Your worlds pretending
You're saying to me now
Your worlds pretending
You're saying to me now
Your worlds pretending
