1. The Imperfect Crime
Lyrics: Chris Helme
Tears streaming down her face she wants to say goodbye
Pain her lies could not erase starting to build up inside
Blood will wipe the slate clean she’ll only suffer for a moment
Carve away the broken parts a sacrifice to mend a broken…
Heart beating stops her body lays still
Her skin turns cold my bloodlust fulfilled
When morning comes the sun may rise
But never again will she open her…
Eyes oblivious to my crime no one will ever know
Now I must hide what I’ve done the evidence must never show
Cold hours before dawn when I buried her in silence
Calm my pulse starts to decrease in the wake of violence
Heart beating stops her body lays still
Her skin turns cold my bloodlust fulfilled
When morning comes the sun may rise
But never again will she open her…
When I held her life in my hands it was so hard to decide
Even after breaking my heart should she live or should she die
I can recall all the good times that we had together
But we both had different ideas of what was forever
When they found her body there my future was at stake
Here I sit upon the stand paying for my mistakes
Fear that I had little chance I try pleading insanity
Death the sentence handed down a fitting end for me
Heart beating stops her body lays still
Her skin turns cold my bloodlust fulfilled
When morning comes the sun may rise
But never again will she open her…
I tried retrials and appeals with nothing but failure
Hope the governor will call my last minute savior
Take a front row fucking seat for my execution
When the guards pull the switch electrocution
My heart beating stops my body lays still
My skin turns cold their bloodlust fulfilled
When morning comes the sun may rise
But never again will I open my eyes… truth goes unseen
2. Fair Weather No More
Lyrics: Chris Helme
It was another pointless day no progress
Another dream was smashed to dust far from success
I only tried to be your friend gave you a chance
You gave me nothing in return I had to laugh
Your immaturity kicked in you turned to me
With arrogant and selfish words you burned me
It’s friends like you who make it hard to fucking care
Next time you need someone to shove I won’t be there
I just can’t sit by and let you make a fool of me anymore
You still don’t understand that karma will return one day to settle the fucking score
Where will you go when your
Friends leave too and you have
No one left you’re on your own &
Now you’ll learn your lesson
I decided long ago some things are better left unsaid
I’ve held my tongue for long enough exactly what goes through your fucking head?
No more insulting tones just keep your distance leave me the fuck alone
With friends like you who needs a fucking enemy your conceit breeds hate
How could you ever call yourself my friend?
I gave it all I had, but it was not enough
I spent time waiting for my patience to end,
And when the time came, I had to walk away
You’re just blind too afraid to face the fact that
You have no fucking tact; you don’t know how to act
To behave like a fucking child and argue with
Everything I fucking say, it killed our friendship
I just can’t sit by and let you make a fool of me anymore
You still don’t understand that karma will return one day to settle the fucking score
Where will you go when your
Friends leave too and you have
No one left you’re on your own &
Now you’ll learn your lesson
It was another pointless day no progress
Another dream was smashed to dust far from success
I only tried to be your friend gave you a chance
You gave me nothing in return I had to laugh
Your immaturity kicked in you turned to me
With arrogant and selfish words you burned me
It’s friends like you who make it hard to fucking care
Next time you need someone to shove I won’t be there
3. The Bitter Taste of Dissent
Lyrics: Chris Helme
Lie after lie spews forth from each corner of his crooked mouth
Sacrificing lives for a war that his ignorance and greed brought about
A legend in his own mind, the man is a walking contradiction
In the guise of freedom, he practices retaliatory eviction
Onslaught justified as we watch our brothers die
Blood will paint the desert sands, and soil their greedy hands
Mere pennies saved will wash away their sins
Honor is ignored sold cheap by corporate whores
Blood will paint the desert sands, and soil their greedy hands
Mere pennies saved will wash away their sins
We can only tolerate these lies for so fucking long
Only by taking a stand will we prove that this is wrong
So ask yourself, how many of our nations children
Must be returned to their homes in body bags before we realize
Your country is using you to fight a war based on financial decisions
You can see the dollar signs behind their deceitful eyes
Onslaught justified as we watch our brothers die
Blood will paint the desert sands, and soil their greedy hands
Mere pennies saved will wash away their sins
Honor is ignored sold cheap by corporate whores
Blood will paint the desert sands, and soil their greedy hands
Mere pennies saved will wash away their sins
We can only tolerate these lies for so fucking long
Only by taking a stand will we prove that this is wrong
We must not give in
