Change pace to save face, there was never a point anyway. Bleed us all dry and for what, a fucking way to escape from your own wretched fate? What is this? A goddamn alibi? Or somewhere just to lay your head at night? This isn’t a mistake it’s the goddamned answer. Change or not we’re done with your shit So just find a fucking coffin and lay down bitch. This isn’t a mistake it’s the goddamned answer. Change pace to save face, there was never a point anyway. Bleed us all dry and for what, a fucking way to escape from your own wretched fate? An alibi, Or somewhere to lay your head at night? You bite our hands too often to be fed anymore Change or not we’re done with your shit Lay the fuck down bitch. What is this? A goddamn alibi? Or somewhere just to lay your head at night? This isn’t a mistake it’s the goddamned answer. Change or not we’re done with your shit So just find a fucking coffin and lay down bitch.

Abrogate 01:48
Let the light touch you Pleading to forget but history forbids it The light erases all in its glow Let it envelop you Let my mind rest again Let it envelop you Let my mind rest again Let the light envelop you And let me be at peace End this reign of torture Pleading to forget But history forbids it Forbids it

Disturbance 04:36
Just let me scream into the void 'cause no one's listening should I unleash the beast or just bide my time? Or bite my tongue? Sometimes I think there's something wrong with me open my eyes to find there's something wrong with humanity It's almost inexplicable, the disrespect that mounts In this game of life we play, we thrive to tear each other down This coexistence, the balance that holds us together Rips us apart tonight as the clouds part and lightning strikes The heavens open up, the angels of vengeance are upon us And now we're all victims of this disturbance Exposing all our failures for the world to see Stare in awe and bow down at the sight of its dark aura Built of all our sin and set on a path to destruction again Just let me scream into the void 'cause no one's listening should I unleash the beast or just bide my time? Sometimes I think there's something wrong with me But there's something wrong with humanity Sometimes I think there's something wrong with me But there's something wrong with everything

Deviate 04:23
You came in and fixed it all, The seams were weak but it held together. It held together for a while. I’m not a tyrant, I just know what I want. There was nothing left to do But watch it fall apart again. One day it will be better, But for now it’s a goddamned nightmare. Expecting failure is second nature, But it only sets us up for something better. Let’s not relinquish who we are for the ones that don’t care at all. Climbing towards the horizon, we deviate. Rising up with passion, we deny this fate. One day it will be better, But for now it’s a goddamned nightmare. Climb towards the horizon and deviate. Rise up with passion and deny this fate. You came in and fixed it all, The seams were weak but it held together. It held together. I’m not a tyrant, I just know what I want. There was nothing left to do But watch it fall apart again.

If I am to be crucified for what I say and do, Apparently I won't be the first The example I have made of you, Is the ignorance of all humanity I speak the truth yet all I get right back from you is lies The stench of deceit flows from your mouth and feeds the ears Of the oblivious population Blood is red, bruises are blue This is what you'll look like when I'm done with you You're stuck here making the same mistakes over and over again Why can't you see this isn't who you were meant to be? We're fucking over it Floating through the depths of your mind This disease gripping you tightly by the throat It knows who you are now Just an insubordinate waste of life Careening down in this spiral of anguish Hear me now, your hourglass lies at your feet Just enough time to stop and think, What have I done?

Retribution 03:56
This is not the war that you wanted But it's the one you've earned When will you learn? Is that too much to ask for? Or is this just my retribution? There is no silence in this house anymore Cries of lies and blasphemous rites Fill the halls of my sanity Razors kiss the pain away Pearly rows of sweet escape The sorrow flows and begs to stay Welcome to hell and here's your seat This is not the war that you wanted But it's the one you've earned When will you learn? Is that too much to ask for? Or is this just my retribution? I swear to you, you have become my last regret There is no silence in this house anymore All that once was is lost and destroyed There is no silence in this house anymore This is not the war that you wanted But it's the one you've earned When will you learn? Is that too much to ask for? Or is this just my retribution? When will you learn? Is that too much to ask for? Or is this just my retribution? This is not the war that you wanted But it's the one you've earned

Machination 03:38
Time is lost and I’m without purpose. The sun set hours ago, where it went I’ll never follow. The moon, my only friend, The one that watches as I wake. Sleep tight my love and bury your mistakes within my dreams. Breathe in and live for a while. There’s nothing wrong with pretending to be yourself When no one knows the real you. But how many times can you put on a mask Before it wears out and falls away? Time is all that’s left to blame, Just drown the years in all we’ve learned. Giving up was never an option when you were around. But I held my head up in spite of it all And left nothing but dust in my wake. We are what no one sees. Sacrifice is second only to forgiveness, Mastering one is the key to the other.
