1. Shadow of a Doubt
what it is i do now
that ive got insane
parts of me have gone blind
resisting is in vain
i dont know what caused this
or how i brought this on
i just know i cant fight it
just like approaching dawn
In a straight jacket
my mind will transform
in a state of mind
hostility reborn
Cast the demons out
Keep the voices in
Shadow of a doubt
insanity begins
I cant fight my
mad-ness a-way
bind-ing-fright-end
death has its way
killed all those around me
that i once called friends
this feeling now excites me
as my life now ends
mentally incapable
of reaching an end
shadow overcomes me
myself my only friend
2. No Amends
You push your empty promise on me
what kind of person should i be?
locked inside this empty shell
Ill send your soul straight to hell
You call yourself a fucking friend
well i dont want to make amends!
all this shit you pushed on me
Id like to watch you fucking bleed
You soulless fuck
No truth you tell
is this fate?
or is this hell?
Your ruthless lies
You hid them well
my growing hate
begins to swell
Shut your face - dont say a word
You mindless fuck - go cull the herd
Ill choke your ass Ill choke your soul
until the last truth be told
tear your body limb from limb
and on my face a fucking grin
With friends like me Ill wish for death
prepare to take your final breath!!
No!
AMENDS!
No!
AMENDS!

4. Fathom To Choose
What to do in this thing called life
what to do in this thing called strife
what to say in this thing so real
what to say with these things i feel
what act i choose in this drama
what act i lose in this coma
nothing can ever be real to you
nothing you ever see will get through
I cant tell what to say
I cant think what to do
I cant fathom who to be
even though i could choose
running back in my head
running back into my bed
running back through my life things-slow-ly
appear to be to me
the things that i cant see
running and running
and hiding, this wont last
searching and finding
and seeking and bli-in-ding
What to do in this thing called life
what to do in this thing called strife
what to say in this thing so real
what to say with these things i feel
what act i choose in this drama
what act i lose in this coma
nothing can ever be real to you
5. Flawed Conspiracy
Youre no good to me
you serve no purpose
you are jsut empty space
you are the lowest
person i could ever meet
i wish you would never be
in my sights again and again
Things appear at night
That you never see
in the light of day
source of your fright
Things appear to me
at the crack of dawn
things are haunting me
conspiracy thats flawed
this will never come
to serve a purpose
occupy the world
from the earths lowest surface
things that i could think up
i wish you would never be
breathing as my enemy
6. Apathetic
cry to the world
your angst drives you more
you think lifes so cruel
and you complain like a whore
No one cares about your problems
im apathetic to your insecurities
who gives a damn how you solve them
youll get no sympathy from me
what do you know
you fucking disgrace
is this concept of reality
to hard to embrace?
how could you know?
with your pitiful embrace
is your life turned to death
to painful to face?
7. Cold Blooded Betrayal
Walking down this road today i realized that
you had lied
Striking up with vengeance i came
to realize
that you were worthless and a
backstabber
i will strike back at you
with full force
Patiently Waiting
For this feud to end
I cant believe i was
betrayed by my friends
Stabbed in the back
with a knife thats so cold
developing actions
that once were thought to be bold
Stabbed me in the back with your might
you stab on
Greeted me with a friendly face
that you had on
Juxtaposition of your worthless acts
had me fooled
you dont care about friends you just follow
your own rules
Why cant this end?
I will kill you
Why cant you be?
just a good friend
Why cant you see?
Youre destroying me
What will I do?
To get back at thee
You are the worst thing to happen to me
I dont even know how it came to be
Looking back i shouldve ruined you when i had the chance
now im stuck in a endless circel of a friend betraying mess
I
Cant stand you
for the things youve done to me
I
Will destroy you
and avenge only me
now that ive destroyed you
i have won
that should teach you a lesson
in this life
Juxtaposition of your worthless acts
has you fooled
you dont care about friends but now you follow
my new rules
8. Battle Scars
What can you tell me now?
Of your wicked deeds?
What can you preech to me now?
what can you foresee?
Chorus:
What-Do-You-Know
A-bout-this-toll
What-do-you-see
in-side-this-soul
Left
With
Battle
Scars
Taken
From
Falling
Hard
Thoughts left inside my head
from the blood filled air
images ingrained in my mind
from the battle unfair
untouchable just like the dead
racing back and forth in my prime
impending doom in my head
cut down jsut before my time
9. Ending Times
this is the last encounter of war
the final day of conflict and fights
nuclear holocaust bringing the end
world ending in a bright flash of light
where can we
go from here
i dont know
i dont care
the world stops
in a daze
people lost
mania rage
this is the first time we can all see
the world as it was never meant to be
running for shelter in the worlds end
fleeing for survival to ones own whim
taking back now what was lost before
ending our days in the war of all wars!
10. Apocalyptic Storm
This is the end
of creation
you cannot see
oblvious
this is the end
you will not know
what will come
revelation bestowed
running
to the gallows
in my own end
this will not be
the last god send
This will destroy
this will infest
this will annoy
social detest
when will you see?
what you must flee?
in order to know
th answer is unknown
running back the state of
the world that was lost
running through the file
of our flaws and the cost
knowing the end will not
help us today
try to find a cure it
doesnt matter anyway
this is an apocalyptic storm that is coming
the huricane to end all in the running
what can we do? would it even help to pray?
apocalypse is dawning, were all fucked anyway
This is the end
of creation
you cannot see
oblvious
this is the end
you will not know
what will come
revelation bestowed
11. Deadly Venom
I cant take this anymore
the deadly venom is seeping sore
trapped in the vein and in antibodies
running around in black treachery
Deadly!
Venom!
Infects!
Me now!
Deadly!
Venom!
Disects!
Us now!
I cant fight off this virus
Infected now unrighteous
no cure found for my disease
from pestalance ill never be free!
12. Twisted Metal
You are the next victim
of this shameless crime
Prepare to face your fate
prepare as i make you mine
Twisted Metal!
Will unfold!
Twisted Metal!
Grabs ahold!
You are running
from this thing called fear
Prepare to face cold death
torturing end comes near
