May the bridges we burn light our way!


2. IDLE HANDS

I, I've become everything you despise (You despise)
I, I will stand against the odds
We will stand against the odds

There will always be heartache
That no one can heal
This kingdom's coming,
Our time is slipping away
You stand up and preach to me
What the fuck do I believe?

Fuck!
Do you not hear my words?
Give me an answer
I have nothing to believe
These years seem wasted

Get up on your feet,
For I won't stand alone
We will prevail, stand up and speak aloud!
We will not fail, it's our time to rise
It's our time to rise!

We will not fail
It's our time to rise

God, can you help us? (x2)
Why don't you listen? (x2)
Or do you even exist?

Show us everything, tell us everything,
It's about time you made us believe! (x2)
You made us believe!

The scars we carry all tell a story
Is there anything past this grave that we dig?

These visions are burning my eyes
There's blood on my hands
This whole life's a lie
Please save me now!

Burn this empire down,
But where do I begin? (x2)


3. PEGASUS, PEGASUS

We’ve suffered these consequences,
Lived our lives, we’ve witnessed regret
For the first time,
We’ve lived our lives and we’ve witnessed regret

Love her, you know it’s right,
But maybe it’ll be just fine
You want her, you think it’s tough
Carrying all these scars inside,
‘Cause you love her, you know it’s right,
But maybe it’ll be just fine
You want her, you think it’s tough
Carrying all these scars inside

It’ll be alright at the end of the night
Don’t believe the suffering,
Don’t believe the hype.
Just acknowledge its presence
And its existence

You stood so strong,
Always by my side
Once upon a time

You can’t bring me down!
Bring me down!

Love her, you know it’s right,
But maybe it’ll be just fine
You want her, you think it’s tough
Carrying all these scars inside,
‘Cause you love her, you know it’s right,
But maybe it’ll be just fine
You want her, you think it’s tough
Carrying all these scars inside

Fuck!
I hate the way you chat so much shit
I hate the way you stick around
Look at me, you’re a waste of time
Let me say you fucked this life!
Fucked this life!

We’ve suffered these consequences,
Lived our lives, we’ve witnessed regret
For the very first time,
We’ve both made mistakes and every fucking time
You keep passing the blame,
But I’ve accepted mine.


4. INHALE

We’re all at war with an enemy,
It’s human nature to be scared in this fight
Deep down inside
I’ll bring out the best in you
I’ll tell you every little thing
That you don’t want to hear,
And I’ll drag you out to the depths
To remove that fear

Time after time, you realize
That every second counts
And every moment

Past, present, and future,
I’ll be the demon that will show you everything in life
It’s time to recognize every little thing that you’ve done
You got to roll the dice
And take that gamble on life (Gamble on life)

We are the ones that lost our way
Bound by these choices that tell these tales
We are the ones that lost our way
Bound by these choices!

We get scared and jump ship
We’re living each moment as a lie (x2)
As a lie!

Things are getting harder
Things are getting a little bit faster
Things are getting harder
Things are getting that little bit faster

It’s time to rise above
The nightmare won’t end until you wake up,
So fucking wake up!


5. LAND OF THE FREE

We’re all held down by anchors,
Our bodies ache from the poison,
They fed us (They fed us)

The further you dig, the more you’ll find out
Now open your eyes to open your mind
To what is around us now!

Time is fading,
Questions are being asked,
What is on their minds?
They’re out of sight but control what’s around us
They’ve taken death’s job into their hands

A corrupted life,
That’s all we’ve seen,
Full of lies and tragedy

And if they have their way, (x2)
We’re all going to die!

We’re all going to die
If they have their way
And we don’t stick together! (x2)

We lay as broken souls,
Waiting for your lies to break through
We lay as broken souls,
Waiting for your lies!

This is not the end
It’s not order out of chaos
There’s no peace in the world,
No hope for the people,
‘Cause we live in fear
For those who are watching us make a stand

If we make a stand, we can be as one (x6)


6. SHEEP IN WOLVES' CLOTHING

Remember where you come from,
Remember who you are,
Don’t follow suit,
Don’t become that fool (x2)


7. REGRETS

You’re forever leaving me in the dark
I’m forever feeling that you’re tearing me apart!

Can you not see what you’re doing to me?
‘Cause I’m not feeling myself anymore

These things you do and say
Are making me lose this faith
Can you not see
That I’m walking on broken fucking glass?

These words I speak are tame
For what I see,
You brought out demon inside of me
Now welcome to hell!
Welcome to hell!

I’m not feeling myself anymore
These things you do and say
Are making me lose this faith

I walk these backstreets
I am never afraid
You took everything I had,
Now I suggest you change your ways

Change!
Change your ways!
Look at me now!
Change your ways!

A life without control is not what I wanted
I regret not saying what I needed
I promised myself I would see this through,
I promised myself I would see this through!

I regret not saying what I needed,
A life without control is not what I wanted!
I regret not saying what I needed,
I regret, I regret!


8. LOATHE

(Instrumental)


9. TRIALS

If you’re not dreaming,
Then you’re just sleeping. (x2)

I’ll climb the highest mountain,
I’ll swim across the seas,
For this dream I always thought was out of reach

From the bottom of my heart,
Fuck you!
You’ll never know what this means to me!

We were cast aside
Thrown to the waves
To fend for ourselves,
To live another day

You are the force that drives me on,
I built this all upon your foundation,
And that’s something I’ll never forget,
I will never forget that
You are the force that drives me on,
I built this all upon your foundation,
And that’s something I’ll never forget,
I will never forget!

Cast aside
Thrown to the waves
Fend for ourselves
Live another day

We will stand strong, never divided
This victory will be one for the books

Oh God, will you fix these broken wings
So I can hold my head up high? (x2)


10. EXHALE

Memories in the making,
Everything is set on course
Our hopes and dreams are laying the way
We jumped ship, and set our path,
We cannot be grounded,
We cannot be held,
We cannot be held!

People change, people hate,
But they need to understand
That we will be the same,
And that we’ll never change
We are who we are!
And we will stay the same,
And we will never change!

Never change, we will never change,
Bring it!

This is the undertow,
We’re going to fight our way
Back through it all

It’s us against the odds
These chains can’t hold us down,
Can’t hold us down

We chose to cut ourselves free (Down)
From the expectations of those (Can’t hold us down)
Who refuse to believe in us, yeah!

You’re going to be my history,
You’re going to be my memories,
My history, my fucking memories
My fucking history, motherfucker!


11. TRUTH AND LIES

Don’t let go of these thoughts,
Now someone please help me bury them alive
Now I’ll leave these ashes behind me (Behind me)
We’ll leave these ashes,
We’ll burn everything in sight

I’ll be here beside you
With every waking site,
So tread carefully
Take a breath of this fresh air,
And understand my mind,
‘Cause I never said,
I never said it was right
To be a fucking fool like me
I can’t seem to understand this fucking head
All these dreams and all these thoughts
Are fucking tearing me apart,
Are fucking tearing me apart!

I chose the path I walk,
And I have no regrets (x2)

We’ll leave these ashes,
We’ll burn everything in sight

I’ll be here beside you
With every waking site,
So tread carefully
Take a breath of this fresh air,
And understand my mind,
‘Cause I never said,
I never said it was right!

Now this is a turning point for me in my life,
Through every broken glass I survived,
Now I will never wear my heart on my chest
Until I confess, I never said it was…


12. LION'S DEN

I’m in the lion’s den again
I find myself searching for a cave
Where I can lay my head,
And rest these thoughts,
To release this rage!

I promised myself
I would never go back to my ways
This is the reaper’s way,
My darkest days, my darkest days!

I’ve got a lot on my mind,
That I can’t seem to hide,
This body aches and this mind is broken
I’ve got a lot on my mind,
That I can’t seem to hide,
I need to find a new direction now!
I can’t seem to breathe anymore (x2)
Push your face into mine,
Tell me it will be fine. (x2)

I’m in the lion’s den again
I find myself searching for a cave
Where I can lay my head,
And rest these thoughts,
To release this rage!

Release this rage
I can’t seem to breathe!

Analyze this face,
Analyze these expectations,
Realize that I don’t give a fuck
You’re fucking disgrace.
