Lyrics

1. IMITATION

Reflective light this mirror image
If i was born to see then give me sight
They sold the soul before the vision
No time to choose it, foresight for decision
Neurotic in a drug filled relation
To choose the imitation
Imitation

Reflected light
Swimming in disease
Contaminate with self destruction
Mirror the image pay for the release
Please take me down before you rule
I'm not the headless cesspool
Same person hiding from something
Dropped his belief for a heaven and hell

Machine for future
Design for hire
The soul now golden
The land now broken

Shallow head of sight
The handheld image
The structure of chemical function
Kill yourself for a sinking few

Machine for future
Design for hire
The soul now golden
The land now broken


2. HANG YOUR HEAD

We're gonna take you down

You are not blind
You see their ways
There is recesion in masses of the land today
You seek the reason
You cannot find
Where are the leaders of a country that's lost it's mind?
Hopeless cause
Hopeless cause
They mask the pressure
To cover up their laws

Their gonna hang your head down

An invitation to feed their minds
What they don't realize
It's payback time
Take it slow, do what we know
The hopeless cause transformed to a better solution

We're gonna hang our heads down
You're gonna hang your head down
We're gonna take you down
We're gonna take you down


3. HATE RIVET

I tried my hardest to look in your eyes
I tried my hardest to see
Whole truth, the truth is a lie
I know you'll never believe
I have to lie and it burns my throat
But the lies are supporting me
I'm empty inside not empty in mind
Is this what you see?
Or is it just me?

This is the age of no belief
Last breath of hope has been released
I'm starting to lose complete control
Hate rivet let me go

Power trip blood for oil
Shed the flesh of a broken land
They lead us on, tell us “it's all right”
The whole truth is it's black and white
Hatred and repression have taken over

I know she's taken the speech for granted
She's held in deception
She's drowned beneath the masses
She's blinded by the truth

This is the age of no belief
Last breath of hope has been released
I'm starting to lose complete control
Hate rivet let me go

We reach our breach in silence
The truth is forgotten
Rejected from our egos
We turn away from our lives


4. DARKEST BEFORE DAWN

Thought i was living to be free but i don't see that anymore
I was just trying to be me but the walls of the world won't let me be
There's always something to remind me what to do
There's always some way to get back to you
Just let me know when you need my faith
I'll be there to fly away with you, with you

I know someday we'll make it work
And i know the rain will clear the way
I know someday we'll take it home
And i know the pain will clear the way
There's always something to remind of you
There's always a way to take me there
Just let me know when you need a hand
I'll be there to be with you

Cause it's always darkest before dawn
And when the sun comes up, all the rain is gone

I was picking my head up
And you knew it would fall down
All the weight of the world
Has got me on the ground

Cause it's always darkest before dawn
And when the sun comes up, all the rain is gone


5. SISTER (FRIDAY) MALEDICTION

Sister friday malediction
Sister friday malediction
Sister friday malediction
Sister friday malediction
I've been lying to myself
For so many many years
I've gathered up my memories
And wrapped them in my tears
Sister friday malediction
Has been singing me the blues
Sister friday malediction
Has been singing me the blues
My heads as empty as my pockets
My breath smells like my shoes
My heart's an anxious whore
Cause she's ready to blow
And like a bloody sunday
Sweet negro music flows
Sister friday malediction
Sister friday malediction
Sister friday malediction
Has been singing me the blues
The world's a fallen airplane
Cause it's running out of fuel
And we are all going down baby
Far below ground
To the devil's mansion
To the devil's mansion we go
On to the devil's playground
On to the devil's playground
My heads a rolling thunder
As lightning brings us there
And sister friday malediction
Doesn't even care
Sister friday malediction
Doesn't even care


6. OUT OF TIME

10,000 dreams push the message
It's the same again
What it will become again
Who puts these thoughts inside my head?


Is this what we've taken?
Have we taken it all?
Have we taken in all in silence?
Here we go here we end
The thoughts inside my head

I'm out time

We care more about who we hate than who will survive
What i think we deserve
What we think we deserve
What we think we deserve

1000 dreams moving backwards
I'm lost again
1000 ways burning head
I'm dead again
I'm underneath
Dreaming backwards
I'm down again
My screaming empty inner conscious

Is this what we've taken?
Have we taken it all?
Have we taken in all in silence?
Here we go here we end
These thoughts inside my head
I'm out time

1000 screams i'm saying things inside my head
1000 ways i'm wishing followers would be lead

Is this what we've taken?
Have we taken it all?
Have we taken in all in silence?
Here we go here we end
The thoughts inside my head
I'm out time


7. SPEED PIG

Once again we see
Sweat and fear we dream
The hope we share for faster life
Slows in the end again
Cause i'm a speed pig
I'm a speed pig

Is it true?
Is it true, it all stays the same?
Is it true?
Nothing stays the same

Once again we hope
Blood and tears i'll shed for you
The ream we share for better life
Grows in the end again
Cause i'm a speed pig
I'm a speed pig

Why when i tried so many times
In a dream you said the image was better off dead
When everyday day you know i'd be back for you
The hope we shared
I'll make it slow for you


8. TOO LATE

I look out the hole in my window
I really see nothing there
Everything goes from the goodness to the problem factor
And then we stand with our hands in the air

Is there too much to pay
For the games that we've played?
Can we undo the crimes we've etched into time?
Is there time for a change?
From the things we've estranged
Is it ourselves we should hate or is it too late?

I walk through these crowded city streets
I really see no one there
Money in their pockets
Proves to us that they've progress
But their hearts show they don't care

Is there too much to pay
For the games that we've played?
Can we undo the crimes we've etched in our time?
Is there time for a change?
From the things that we've estranged
Is it ourselves we should hate or is it too late?

I breathe the early morning air
This crazy world has often scared my hope of ever wanting
To ever want to live here
This crazy world has often scared my hope of ever wanting
I take a step into the air


9. I MAKE IT RAIN

I sit at home and watch as my everlasting life floats through the air in a dream a little message sent out from hell i watch as i dream
I listen out for your footsteps behind my door they never came and today i listen more
Alone i wait so impatiently
My ignorance splitting you and me
When we're far apart we will go our ways
When the sun is shinning i make it rain

If you don't want the sun i'll do it back well if you don't wont you cut please me some slack
I never wanted this you did once say
You know i won't be here waiting all day
Waiting all day
Well why can you speak words you don't mean im the one who gets hurt why can't you see?

All i do is wait impatiently
When the sun shinning i make it rain

All i do is wait impatiently
My ignorance splits you and me
When we're far apart we will go our ways
When the sun is shinning i make it rain
