1. INTRO

(Instrumental)


2. GUIDELINES

I will not follow the path
You've laid out before me
I'll break these chains one by one
I'm an outcast chasing dreams
Born in misery
This world is a broken home

Life flashes before our very eyes
And we're blinded by the light

So when I meet the end
I wanna know that I lived all I could
From the outside with no Guidelines
I will never pretend to be satisfied
Spilling blood for a dime
I'll live my life with no Guidelines

Livin' like there's no tomorrow
Keep my vices well fed
There is no more right or wrong
I've let go of all control
I'll find peace when I'm dead
My beliefs are what keep me strong

Life flashes before our very eyes
And we're blinded by the light

So when I meet the end
I wanna know that I lived all I could
From the outside with no Guidelines
I will never pretend to be satisfied
Spilling blood for a dime
I'll live my life with no Guidelines

On the outside..there's no Guideline
I'll live my life..with no Guidelines

Though dreams come with uncertainty
I'll chase mine endlessly
I'll live my life with no restraints
I will not die in vain

So when I meet the end
I wanna know that I lived all I could
From the outside with no Guidelines
I will never pretend to be satisfied
Spilling blood for a dime
I'll live my life with no Guidelines


3. ANGEL IN THE DARK

She walks the dark streets in heels
And every man around caves in
Over and over again
No one cares 'bout how she feels
But surely they leave the stain of sins
On her skin

Her soul seems unbreakable
She's been through hell and back
In search of purpose..I'm screaming!

She won't find it..Looking in the dirt
She has gotta look up and let the light into her heart
She's been blackened..She's been torn apart
But maybe this is not the end
She can start again..She's an Angel in the Dark
Angel in the Dark

If you walk this world alone
You simply will not make it
Don't let darkness win the fight
Let your heart guide your way home
And don't you ever question it
You've gotta find the light

Your soul is vulnerable
Cause you've been through hell and back
In search of purpose..I'm screaming!

You won't find it..Looking in the dark
Angel you gotta look up and let the light into your heart
You've been blackened..You've been torn apart
But baby this is not the end
You can start again..Angel in the Dark

You won't find it..Looking in the dark
Angel you gotta look up and let the light into your heart
You've been blackened..You've been torn apart
But baby this is not the end
We can start again

We've all been mislead..We've all got some dirt
You've just gotta look up and let the light into your heart
You've been blackened..You've been torn apart
But maybe this is not the end
We can start again..You're an Angel in the Dark


4. PREDATOR (ANIMAL)

There's violence in me
It runs so fucking deep
Yea it's the beast within me
Screaming to be unleashed

How do they keep control?
It's tearing me the hell apart
Maybe I don't bare a soul
My morals lie deep in the God damned dirt

All I have left is a set of instincts
Crying out for the blood of innocence

I am an animal
Born to be wild, feeding off of my kills
Become the prey or the predator
I am an animal
Born to be wild, feeding off of my kills
Become the prey or the predator

I won't be a victim..Ever again!
Approach me the wrong way
You'll meet your fucking end

Don't make me lose control
You won't like what follows
Man, I don't bare a soul
I'll leave you bloodied and bowed

All I have left is a set of instincts
Crying out for the blood of innocence

I am an animal
Born to be wild, feeding off of my kills
Become the prey or the predator
I am an animal
Born to be wild, feeding off of my kills
Become the prey or the predator

All I have left are my instincts
All I have left are my instincts

So far beyond
The breaking point
Now it's insanity
I need to avoid

Trying to contain this rage
Is hell on earth
How do they keep control?
And what the fuck is it worth?

All I have left is a set of instincts
Crying out for the blood of innocence

I am an animal
Born to be wild, feeding off of my kills
Become the prey or the predator
I am an animal
Born to be wild, feeding off of my kills
Become the prey or the predator


5. BURN

Are you man enough
To know when you are wrong?
To let the guilt sink in
And see what you're made of

I had to face that light
I had to face the truth
This grueling pride inside of me
Took a swing at my dreams

When will I find serenity

I never meant to give up
I just didn't know where to turn
Cause every single bridge I've crossed I've burned
I thought I was so much stronger
I swear I never meant to run
Seems every single thing I touch I burn

I was so intent
On making it alone
I shut out all your words
I was contrarious to the bone

So self destructive
How can I change this
This burning pride inside of me
Set ablaze my dreams

It took me years to say..that I was wrong

I never meant to give up
I just didn't know where to turn
Cause every single bridge I've crossed I've burned
I thought I was so much stronger
I swear I never meant to run
Seems every single thing I touch I burn

I'm damn sick of trying
To live with..with myself
I wanna burn!

I never meant to give up
I just didn't know where to turn
Cause every single bridge I've crossed I've burned
I thought I was so much stronger
I swear I never meant to run
Seems every single thing I touch I burn


6. CHASING SHADOWS

Drowning in torment
My sanity's gone and my faith's been stolen
You cut me open
This wound is so deep and I'm left here choking
On the words I could never say
Need an out from this endless maze

I'm always chasing shadows
You left a mark in my soul
I'm livin' with your ghost

I'm growing weary
Desolateness is suffocating me
And your absence kills me
Will the sorrow ever set me free?
I still hear your voice breathe my name
A delusion that never ends

I'm always chasing shadows
You left a mark in my soul
I'm livin' with your ghost
Why do I chase these shadows?
A never ending illusion
I'm livin' in sorrow

I walk among..ghosts and shadows..

All I hear is you screaming my name
This delusion will never end!

I am always chasing shadows
You left a mark in my soul
I'm livin' with your ghost
Why do I chase these shadows?
A never ending illusion
I'm livin' in sorrow


7. BEFORE WE FORM

You found me broken
A mile deep in hate
Though you're my light in this cryptic life
You've unearthed all my mistakes

I'd destroyed what little life I had
And you gave me something back
Don't let this vicious part of me
Provoke you to retract the gift of your love

You fill the emptiness
The nothingness inside my soul
But when passion flourishes
The demons in us take control

Baby, let's not break before we form (Before we form)
Darling, let's find the strength to weather this storm (Weather this storm)

I'll no longer be the nightmare
That kept you in despair
I'll go down in flames for you
I'll walk with you in hell

You reminded me we're not alone
We've got something to lean on
The faith I have in us is much too strong
We can make it through this storm

You fill the emptiness
The nothingness inside my soul
But when passion flourishes
The demons in us take control

Baby, let's not break before we form (Before we form)
Darling, let's find the strength to weather this storm (Weather this storm)

Before we..form!
Baby, let's not break before we form (Before we form)
Darling, let's find the strength to weather this storm (Weather this storm)


8. SEX IS ANGRY

You look so damn good down on your knees
I know no one else can make you scream like me
Our love is just like a war
But when it hurts I know
That you just want me more

You can make me miserable
Bring out the worst in me
But you're so fucking beautiful
So go on and hate me, disrespect me
I love it when the sex is angry

This is almost suicidal
Might be the death of me
But you're so irresistible
So go on and hate me, berate me
I love it when the sex is angry

Now we only speak when we're arguing
You got me scratched and bruised
But I don't feel a thing
Shoulda walked out that door long ago
But when it hurts I find myself wanting you more

You can make me miserable
Bring out the worst in me
But you're so fucking beautiful
So go on and hate me, disrespect me
I love it when the sex is angry

This is almost suicidal
Might be the death of me
But you're so irresistible
So go on and hate me, berate me
I love it when the sex is angry

Our love is just like a war
No retreat, no remorse

Baby I love the way you scream
Yeah I'm that fire and you're kerosene
Baby I love it when we fight
Cause when it ends, we're both satisfied

This love is just like a war
So when it hurts I find myself wanting it more

I love it..I love it..I love it when the sex is angry

You can make me miserable
Bring out the worst in me
But you're so fucking beautiful
So go on and hate me, disrespect me
I love it when the sex is angry

This is almost suicidal
Might be the death of me
But you're so irresistible
So go on and hate me, berate me
I love it when the sex is angry


9. WELCOME TO MISERY

Wake up to a cigarette burning
Hate that smell, hate her guts, I hate everything
This sure ain't the life that I dreamed of
Hey world, do you see me?

Welcome to this place that I call home
Welcome to misery
Welcome to the only thing I've known
Welcome to my misery

I'm so tired of everything breaking
Around me, it's an overwhelming burden
This sure ain't the life I had dreamed of
Hey God, where do dreams go?

Welcome to this place that I call home
Welcome to misery
Welcome to the only thing I've known
Welcome to my misery

Can I break free from misery?
Will this ever meet an end?
Can I escape this agony?
Am I forever condemned?

Welcome to this place that I call home
Welcome to my misery

Welcome to this place that I call home
Welcome to misery
Welcome to the only thing I've known
Welcome to my misery

Welcome to this place that I call home
Welcome to misery


10. HEAVEN

I know we only spent a few days together
Somehow it felt like forever
I let you into my lonesome world
And now I want a piece of yours

I loved every moment with you

Cause looking in your eyes
Was like peeking into heaven
I'm aching to see you again
I could stare at your smile
For days on end
I'm aching to feel you again

I miss it how we would just lay around
And the way your body replied to mine
Oh baby now it's just a waiting game
Until our bodies intertwine

I'll make the most of every moment with you

Cause looking in your eyes
Was like peeking into heaven
I'm aching to see you again
I could stare at your smile
For days on end
I'm aching to feel you again

I'll make the most of every second with you

Cause looking in your eyes
Was like peeking into heaven
I'm aching to see you again
I could stare at your smile
For days on end
I'm aching to feel you again

Looking in your eyes
Is like peeking into heaven
I'm aching to see you again
I could stare at your smile
For days on end
I'm aching to feel you again


11. PROMISED LAND

I'm facing eternal damnation
The prince of darkness has summoned me
I'm desperately seeking the light
That will forever set me free

As the serpents arise
I pray that God hears my cries

You know where I have been
But judge me where I stand
Forgive me for my sins
I will earn promised land

The voices that clutter my head
Have only hellish things to say
But the faith in me grows much stronger
As I settle in in the fray

As the serpents arise
I pray that God hears my cries

You know where I have been
But judge me where I stand
Forgive me for my sins
I will earn promised land

Can you hear me?

When I meet my demise
I pray that God hears my cries

You know where I have been
But judge me where I stand
Forgive me for my sins
I will earn promised land
