A Red Dawn : The Need to Defy
Les paroles
1. SMOKE, MIRRORS AND A RAZORBLADE
See the smiling face of death approaching. I've seen it coming from miles away. The smiling face of death approaching. I've seen it coming from miles away. From miles away. White line that lies before me, while below it, a lonely face I see. For a short while this will make things alright, it's a deceptive feeling, I've realised.
Each breath I take reveals a dark side of me, best undiscovered. Unrealised. Flick of the skull tilted back to the sky, A moment passes, left wondering why.
Float so high above the troubles of this life, Sink so low with the struggle and the strife. Smoke, mirrors and a razorblade, in the morning light we vow to never do it again. 'Til the next morning comes and we've given up the fight. The search for Self, The search for meaning, universal wrong or right. Grey cloud disperses before me, Reveals the face I've grown to despise, and now it's dawned on me I'm in this alone. Feels like I've pulled the trigger, Doesn't matter. Dead on the ground. The embers burning, swelling, filling the air. My haven dissipates, Disintegrates. Flick of the skull, tilted back to the sky. A moment passes left wondering why. Float so high above the troubles of this life, Sink so low with the struggle and the strife. Sail away on the edge of a knife. Drown your sorrows in your drink tonight. Smoke, mirrors and a razorblade. In the morning light we vow to never do it again. 'Til the next morning comes and we've given up the fight. The search for Self, The search for meaning, universal wrong or right. Imaginary red line that lays before me. A path to destruction that ruins beliefs. Falling in to a wonderland where pain and death go hand in hand. Forever this will end my fight. The struggle for a pure freedom. A universal wrong or right
2. DRAW THE LINE
Death of another friend is where we draw the line. Another scar that never ever mends is where we draw the line. And all the shame that's a means to an end again is where we draw the line. So we vow to never ever forget. That's where we draw the line. Deny again what you know has become. So fight the system and take control. As time destroys our precious memories. So does it heal the pain of trauma past. You've taken all that you once gave to me, except my memories. The one thing you can't have. The death of another friend is where we draw the line. Another scar that never ever mends is where we draw the line, and all the shame that's a means to an end again is where we draw the line. So we vow to never ever forget that's where we draw the line. As time destroys our precious memories, so does it heal the pain of trauma past. It heals the pain of trauma past. Watch as another friend dies. Stand by as you're crucified. Deny as you tell more lies. Nothing more is justified. Watch as another friend dies. Stand by as you're crucified. The death of another friend is where we draw the line. Another scar that never ever mends is where we draw the line. And all the shame that's a means to an end again, is where we draw the line. So we vow to never ever forget. That's where we draw the line
3. THE HARBINGER
You feel nothing more than I do, and nothing more do I feel. Another lie to hide behind is just another blatant lie to keep me blind. No other reasons can I find in my mind or inside. Nothing makes me satisfied. We've all been there, but we don't all come out alive. This darkened place inside our own minds; We've all been there, so why can't we all survive? Can't control it, Won't deny it. Control is just a state of mind. Another place to hide inside is just another dangerous place inside my mind. Another reason undefined. Can't make it this time. Nothing makes me satisfied. We've all been there but we don't all come out alive. This darkened place inside our own minds; We've all been there, so why can't we all survive? We've all been there but we don't all come out alive
4. WISH YOURSELF TO DEATH
Have you ever wanted something so bad you just don't know what to do? You just sit there, barely breathing you can barely move. Ripping the walls apart, Tearing them down. Ripping the walls apart, Tearing them apart. This distance that's growing between you and I is tearing me apart. Ripping me to pieces and it's killing. It's killing me. It's breaking down my will to live and burning down my idea of who we are. When everything I've wanted's turned to ashes now, beneath a fiery sky, I wish I could die. You can't breathe, then I hold my breath. You make a wish, I wish myself to death. You're all I ever wanted, I only wish I could gibe you more. So beneath this fiery sky, please bury me when I die. This distance that's growing between you and I is tearing me apart, Ripping me to pieces, and it's killing. It's killing me. It's breaking down my will to live and burning down my idea of who we are. When everything I've wanted's turned to ashes now, beneath a fiery sky. I wish I'd die. You can't breathe, then I hold my breath. You make a wish, I wish myself to death. You're all I ever wanted I only wish I could give you more, so beneath this fiery sky, please bury me when I die
5. WHEN THE WATER RUNS CLEAR
I believe in something more. Yes, I believe there's more in store. A factory for the bleeding is a factory for the label whore. Once you get your foot in, There's no freedom for you anymore. There's gotta be an exit here. There's gotta be another door. If you want this shit, nothing's harder than taking the chance that you've been given. Completely undeserved, But do we recognise it? Now, the time has come. You got something to say, then just say it. You got the need to defy, Then get to it. Nothing's clearer than making the choice of indecision. Completely unreserved, But do we compromise it? Now the time has come. You got something to say, then just say it. You got the need to defy, then get to it. Now the time has come. You got something to say then just say it. I believe in something more. Yes, I believe there's more in store. A factory for the bleeding is a factory for the label whore. Once you get your foot in, there's no freedom for you anymore. So wash the blood stains 'til the water runs clear. There's gotta be an exit here. There's gotta be another door. If you want this, We've all seen better days. I know that we have all seen better days
