Lyrics



If It Wasn't For Hate We'd Be Dead By Now


If it wasn't for hate, we'd be dead by now.
If it wasn't for truth, we'd have taken out bow.
If it wasn't for love. we'd have faded away.
If it wasn't for hate, baby, I'd have lost out today.

It won't kill me, you can't stop me
It won't kill me, you can't stop me
It won't kill me, you can't stop me
It won't kill me, you can't stop me

If it wasn't for death, I know I'd never feel this alive.
If it wasn't for lies, I probably wouldn't survive.
If I wasn't for damn hypocrisy, I wouldn't have to sing this song.
If it wasn't for patience baby, I couldn't wait out this long.

I'm killing everything you know
I'm killing everything you know
I'm killing everything you know
I'm killing everything you know


Dstryr And Dstryr


All hail!
The leaders of the revolution.
We've got your policy, your war, your hate, your retribution.
All hail!
The sheer failure of a nation.
S.O.S boys, this is white noise.

Destroyer, destroyer
We sing it like a funeral choir.
Mourning now our hope is burning in the fire.
Deceiver, deceiver
You never where a great acheiver
This is a joke, I hope you choke
Non believer.

Everything you destroy, we replace
Destroyer, destroyer
Every word you write, we will erase
Destroyer, destroyer
Everytime you think you've stopped us
We rise up stronger from the dust.
Turn around motherfucker, 'cause we ain't done.
Destroy, destroy
Destroy, destroy

All hail!
The shot that set a nation running
The smoking shells are piling up, just keep 'em coming.
All hail!
The warning sound of our salvation.
Line 'em up boys, this is white noise.

Destroyer, destroyer
Religion needs a new employer
I've got a rope to hang your jesus even higher.
Deceiver, deceiver
I load the truth and cock the lever
And then I'll take my aim towards your fucking leaders.

Everything you destroy, we replace
Destroyer, destroyer
Every word you write, we will erase
Destroyer, destroyer
Everytime you think you've stopped us
We rise up stronger from the dust.
Turn around motherfucker, 'cause we ain't done.

Destroyer, destroyer
We live inside the fire.
Destroyer, destroyer
We live inside the fire
Destroyer, destroyer
We live inside the fire
Destroyer, destroyer
We live inside of you.

Destroyer, destroyer
We live inside the fire.
Destroyer, destroyer
We live inside the fire
Destroyer, destroyer
We live inside the fire
Destroyer, destroyer
We live inside of you.

Destroyer, destroyer
We live inside of you.
Destroyer, destroyer
We live inside of you.
Destroyer, destroyer
We live inside of you.
Destroyer, destroyer
We live inside of you.

We live inside of you.
We live inside of you.

Everything you destroy, we replace
Destroyer, destroyer
Every word you write, we will erase
Destroyer, destroyer
Everytime you think you've stopped us
We rise up stronger from the dust.
Turn around motherfucker, 'cause we ain't done.

Destroy, destroy
Destroy
We live inside of you
We live inside of you.



It's Not The End Of The World But I Can See It From Here




My soldiers march tonight
In the city of your dreams
This beautiful army
Are tearing at your seems
Down on your knees
Go and ask disease
I'll take it all everything I see
Oh can't you hear the symphony?

Behind these walls
They're watching for
As our union crumbles into hell

It's not the end of the world now baby
So come on cry those tears
It's not the end of the world now darling
But I can see it from here!

Oh baby don't cry tonight
Because your tears they will clean
I didn't know this blood red rune
Was deafened by your screams
Watch what you say
I will betray
My promises they will decay
I'll make amends but not today

Behind these walls
They're watching for
As our union crumbles into hell

It's not the end of the world now baby
So come on cry those tears
It's not the end of the world now darling
But I can see it from here!

(It's not the end of the world now baby
So come on cry those tears
It's not the end of the world now darling
BUT I CAN SEE IT FROM HERE!
I CAN SEE IT FROM HERE!


Where We Belong


I'll take these storms away
Start a brand new story
I'll make it through each day
Singing death or glory
Lord won't answer me
I won't let it bring me down

I know these times are grave and I'm living under
I know I'll be okay with the rain or thunder
I heaR It calling me, I will march into the sound
Oooooh whooa!

Ooooh I just get the feeling
You're holding me down and the answers needed
I guess there being smothered by the sounds
Of all thIs emotion and all of this hate
Still I keep searching for something
To put my faith in
To find my place so I keep singing

I'll take these storms away
Start a brand new story
I'll make it through each day
Singing death or glory
Lord won't answer me
I won't let it bring me down
Ooooh whooaaao

Hold on hold on
We'll move along
Where we belong
Where we belong
My heart my soul

I don't need a vision I like to embrace
And I don't need false promises, hopes and wishes
To find my place so I keep singing

I'll take these storms away
Start a brand new story
I'll make it through each day
Singing death or glory
Lord won't answer me
I won't let it bring me down
Oooooh whooaaa oh

Where we belong
Where we belong
My heart my soul
We stand alone

Hold on hold on
We'll move along
Where we belong
My heart my soul
(Repeat)

Hold on hold on
Where we belong
My heart my soul

I'll take these storms away
(Where we belong)
Start a brand new story
I'll make it through each day
(Where we belong)
Singing death or glory
Lord won't answer me
(My heart my soul)
I won't let it bring me down


Next Stop Atrocity


Kid you better say nothing,
You better lie low.
'Cause this futures' coming,
666 foot below.
Pack up your belongings
Get your suitcase and your clothes.
Ain't nothing changing boys,
Time to go.

Get in the car, get in the car.
We keep it running but you won't get far.
We got velocity, next stops Atro city.
Get in the car. get in the car.
We keep it running but you won't get far.
We got velocity. I wanna be atrocity.

On the phone is a dial tone.
On the TV, just ghosts.
All the rivers are boling.
Better the devil you know.
All the voices in chorus.
They all sing out of key.
We're on the road to nothing,
And nothings gonna stop me.

Get in the car, get in the car.
We keep it running but you won't get far.
We got velocity, next stops Atro city.
Get in the car. get in the car.
We keep it running but you won't get far.
We got velocity. I wanna be atrocity.

I wanna be atrocity.
Atrocity,
Yeah she loves me.
I wanna be atrocity.

Get in the car, get in the car.
We keep it running but you won't get far.
We got velocity, next stops Atro city.
Get in the car. get in the car.
We keep it running but you won't get far.
We got velocity. The next stops Atro city.
Get in the car, get in the car.
We keep it running but you won't get far.
We got velocity, I wanna be atrocity.

Atrocity,
She loves me.
Atrocity,
She fuckin' loves me.



For He's A Jolly Good Felon

Simon, don't stop with all the lying.
'Cause we know where your from,
You get along by taking things that don't belong to you.
So can you feel it?
Oh when you steal it.
All that adrenalin, living in sin
And you can sell it off for half the price.
Oh what would your mother say?

We take to get along,
We're holding on, we're holding on,
And all these estates we're on,
Everyone's singing!

Mikey, oh where'd you get those nikes?
'Cause I know you ain't got, the notes to drop.
Left alone you'd take the fucking lot!
Not succeding, nothing to beleive in.
Cause it will all go wrong,
Everything's gone.
Now your future is on the roll of a dice.
And that's the price that you pay!

We take to get along,
We're holding on, we're holding on,
And all these estates we're on,
Everyone's singing!

We don't need anyone!
We're holding on, we're holding on,
All the police are wrong,
So we're still singing.

Seven days a week,
Patrolling all these streets.
I try to stop, but I can't help it.
I know you call me weak,
My future is oblique.
I take to get along,
Cause I still need it.

We take to get along,
We're holding on, we're holding on,
And all these estates we're on,
Everyone's still singing!

We take to get along,
We're holding on, we're holding on,
And all these estates we're on,
Everyone's singing!

We don't need anyone.
We're holding on, we're holding on.
We don't need anyone.
Everyone's singing.

We don't need anyone.
We're holding on, we're holding on.
We don't need anyone.
Everyone's singing.


A Better Nothing


A dark place in the light of this city.
I know this feeling I keep buried inside,
Won't retreat, or delete.
It ends tonight.
The dull pain that remains isn't pretty.
I'm being smothered in the flames I ignite.
"Oh my city is burning tonight."

[Chorus]
So how's it gonna feal when I leave this town,
Broke and burning, with the memories that we once found.
I'm out of time and I'm, I'm out of place.
I left a love I can't replace, to find home.
Yet everytime I'm left with nothing,
But nothing's all I need.
Another time, there's always something,
But never inside me.

My chest tightens.
It brightens the light of the stars,
Revealing our scars, all the times that were ours.
On the run with nothing but an appetite for lust and seduction.
I won't start again with the feelings.
I know what I need and it's so unappealing.
I sink below, let me go.
I need to find my way back to what I know.

[Chorus]
So how's it gonna feal when I leave this town,
Broke and burning, with the memories that we once found.
I'm out of time and I'm, I'm out of place.
I left a love I can't replace, to find home.
Yet everytime I'm left with nothing,
But nothing's all I need.
Another time, there's always something,
But never inside me.

So how's it gonna feal when I leave this town,
Broke and burning, with the memories that we once found.
So how's it gonna feal when I leave this town,
How's it gonna feel, how's it gonna feel, when I leave.
So how's it gonna feal when I leave this,
So how's it gonna feel?

To find, to find, to find, to find, find, home.
Yet everytime I'm left with nothing,
But nothing's all I need.
So how's it gonna feal when I leave this town,
How's it gonna feal when I leave this town,
How's it gonna feal when I leave this town,
How's it gonna feal, how's it gonna feel,
When I leave, [x8]
When I leave this town.


Streets Of Nowhere


She won't let me go.
Don't put me down.
I've seen the scenes,
And I've been around.
Big city lies, the bullshit smiles,
The inside jokes and the changing styles.
But when I'm here,
I leave behind what I don't need,
'Cause every time I walk these streets I know they're mine.

It's just another day.
Living here this way,
Nothing ever troubles me,
And I say...
Lalalalala
Everything's ok!

Oh these roads they should talk,
Yeah feels good to walk,
These streets of nowhere.
These streets of nowhere.
Grey clouds up above,
But you still gotta love,
These streets of nowhere.
These streets of nowhere.

Your faded signs,
Your tiny crimes.
Your endless jokes that go on for miles.
Your errant daughter walks the water.
You wouldn't have a word said agianst her.
But I agree, the factories,
The shopping carts, sing a symphony
That sounds like home to me.

It's just another day.
Living here this way,
Nothing ever troubles me,
And I say...
Lalalalala
Everything's ok!

Oh these roads they should talk,
Yeah feels good to walk,
These streets of nowhere.
These streets of nowhere.
Grey clouds up above,
But you still gotta love,
These streets of nowhere.
These streets of nowhere.

It's just another day.
Living here this way,
Nothing ever troubles me,
And I say...
Lalalalala
Everything will be ok!

These streets of nowhere...

Oh these roads they should talk,
Yeah feels good to walk,
These streets of nowhere.
These streets of nowhere.
Grey clouds up above,
But you still gotta love,
These streets of nowhere.
These streets of nowhere.


Dirty Little Heart


Another night, another year that gone.
Raise your glass, I'm not home tonight.
Nothings changed but everythings different.
Getting cold in the bus stop light.
All the days, all the time we spent,
Making plans for another life.
Staring out of a backseat window.
Making cuts with a plastic knife.

This dirty heart still longs to beat.
Back in your arms, back on your street.
These open wounds you gave me.
These broken bones will take me,
Crawling on through the debris
Of my dirty little heart.

Another flight, still I don't belong.
An empty glass. still not home tonight.
I look for a chance, but only find indifferance.
I'm growing old in the glare of a spotlight.
All those nights, all these hearts I've haunted.
All the memories we shared.
I wonder if this will ever be different.
I wonder if they will ever be spared.

This dirty heart still longs to beat.
Back in your arms, back on your street.
These open wounds you gave me.
These broken bones will take me,
Crawling on through the debris
Of my dirty little...

These open wounds you gave me.
These broken bones will take me,
Crawling on through the debris
Of my dirty little heart.

This dirty heart still longs to beat.
Back in your arms, back on your street.
These open wounds you gave me.
These broken bones will take me,
Crawling on through the debris
Of my dirty, dirty...

These open wounds you gave me.
These broken bones will take me,
Crawling on through the debris
Of my dirty little heart.


Darkest Blue


I can see into this abyss
There is no stopping myself from feeling this
And I think it's coming through the air
It torments me
I try to move the dial and change this frequency

Everywhere that I go
Misery will follow
It won't let me go
It won't let go

I keep fading into you
Drowning in your darkest blue
A sorrow pulls me down
I'm weightless without sound
I stil hear them calling

There's no hope
There's no hope for me
Cause I can't silence the sound
They keep calling me

Everywhere that I go
Misery will follow
It won't let me go
It won't let go

I keep fading into you
Drowning in your darkest blue
A sorrow pulls me down
I'm weightless without sound
I stil hear them calling
I stil hear them calling



The Light That Burns Twice as Bright


Take me by the hand and lead me to the slaughter
Close my eyes
Just sink and let it go
The warmest rain
It falls on the darkest crimson mountain
Seeping from the wound I sink below

Don't say the pain will fade tomorrow
The last thing that I feel will be today

You
You
You
Don't you know?
You took apart my soul
You
You
You
Don't you know?
You put me on my knees and cut my throat

I lost my postivity
I'm positively lost
I thought the path was obvious
It's not
Resign myself to failed potential
The wind exits the sails
My scarlet hands are staining these two nails

Don't say the pain will fade tomorrow
The last thing that I feel will be today

You
You
You
Don't you know?
You took apart my soul
You
You
You
Don't you know?
You put me on my knees and cut my throat
This is how it feels...
