1. VULTURES ABOVE

Would you take away all of the graves
That litter my mind till this day
Would you clear a path through the trees
Or are you just gonna walk away?
Don’t leave me here this way
Take me back
Where this began
I swear to God I used to love these lights
This city is darker
Ate me alive
Should have known they’d protect their hive
Open me up
Climb inside
Take what you want just remember what’s mine
Take my heart
Take my eyes
Take my soul and feel the other side
Vultures above
Lions below
Nothing like waiting to see how you go
Do I fight this?
Do I fight this?
Hands are tied
Behind my back
Belief in me, the only thing I have
And it’s fading
Slowly eroding
Tired of the people and all the commotion
See the finish line
But I can’t feel my legs
See the checkered flag but there’s no gas left
And I’m sinking
I’m sinking
Vultures above
Lions below
Nothing like waiting to see how you go
Do I fight this?
Do I fight this?
Take me
I want this, I don’t want you
I need this more than you do
White doors are slowly closing
I lie awake just hoping


2. EXTRACTION

I can’t breathe
Suffocating
Just loosen the noose
You give me no reasons
So fuck your excuse
I’m tired of you
Breaking me down
I’m losing the fight
The only way out is to get to the light
I’m so sick that I’m embracing
The end
This is what you wanted
Pushing and pulling
Till limbs start departing
I fracture, I’m bleeding within
No one can see that I’m drowning from sin
Now breathe
Now breathe me in
I’ve got this noose around my neck
Reminds me of the time I have left
I need to do this on my own
‘Cause I was meant to be free so just leave
Colliding
Our worlds caving in
Too bad the tunnels were dug from within
I can try piece back this puzzle
If only the pieces weren’t dead from the hollowing out
I’ve got this noose around my neck
Reminds me of the time I have left
I need to do this on my own
‘Cause I was meant to be free so just leave
Extract me, get me out
I’m sick of the ghosts that are dragging me down
Extract me, get me out
The anchors and chains only scarring me now
Extract me, get me out
The target is burning a hole in my back
Extract me, get me out
If this is called living then stop my heart


3. DIG ME OUT

Get up
I can feel that it's changing
Diamonds forming from stone
I'm reaching out to the hands of time and
I'm begging for a little more
So dig me out

Pushed the nails from my coffin
I let the dirt seep inside
Clawing, scratching for days on end till
I caught the sun in my eyes
So dig me
So dig me out

So I tried to fly
Anchored to the wind
Slowly falling
I was falling
I'm not ready
Only dirt can catch me now
You can not bury me
Try and I'll find a way
You can not bury me
Try and I'll find a way
You can not bury me
Try and I'll find a way
You can not bury me
Try and I'll find a way
So dig me out
So dig me


4. HURRICANE

Don't let your heart give way
Cause it just might be the last time
You can take it

I know the past has been cruel
But that's a hurt you remember
And you can use it

Let's keep marching on
Let's all keep marching on
Push aside all the broken times
Break away and leave the past behind

Hurricane take us away
Spit us out and start again
Far away from all the wasted life
We've seen
Hurricane take us away
Leave behind our misery
In the wake of the destruction we have seen

Will you look back on your life
And know you did all you could
To live alive be happy
Don't let the past bring you down
Mistakes are lessons you learn from
Just pay attention

Did you crawl did you claw did you fight back
Did you walk did you hit did you fight back
Did you push till it cracked did you fight back
Did you love just enough to get love back

Let's keep marching on
Let's all keep marching on
Push aside all the broken times
Break away and leave the past behind

Hurricane take us away
Spit us out and start again
Far away from all the wasted life
We've seen
Hurricane take us away
Leave behind our misery
In the wake of the destruction we have seen

Hurricane take us away
Spit us out and start again
Far away from all the wasted life
We've seen
Hurricane take us away
Leave behind our misery
In the wake of the destruction we have seen


5. SEPARATION

You fucking make me sick

You're cut to pieces

They're all around
You think you can take one
Heart can't be found
You're just a sheep
In the masses clothing
Vowed to your shepherd
Now you're following
You fucking make me sick

Fake
You fucking make me sick
Fake
You fucking make me

You seek attention
Of a world gone wrong
No place you can hide now
Blink your eyes you're gone
You're just a sheep
In the masses clothing
Vowed to your shepherd
Now you're following
You fucking make me sick

Fake
You fucking make me sick
Fake
You fucking make me sick
Fake
You fucking make me sick
Fake
You fucking make me

Close your eyes again
Are you blinded by the web of fucking lies
Pretend
That you're worth something when you're not
Behind a screen
Do you dream?
Do you wish that you were in
Someone else's skin?
And I know that no one is listening

Close your eyes again
Are you blinded by the web of fucking lies
Pretend
That you're worth something when you're not
Behind a screen
Do you dream?
Do you wish that you were in
Someone else's skin?
And I know that no one is listening

Fake
You fucking make me sick
Fake
You fucking make me sick
Fake
You fucking make me sick
Fake
You fucking make me


6. CAN'T BE UNSAID

I’m letting go

You need to fall
Before you learn how to fly
You know I’ve made mistakes
But I tried
I’ve lost everything
No price I can pay to begin again
Just go

I’m letting go of who I am
I’m running towards the ocean
Drown the thoughts that weigh me down
I’m letting go
I’m changing now
Back before the voices
Twisted up and tore me down
I’m letting go

Blame me
Blame who you want
This life’s too short to right the wrongs
We just hurt the very thing
That has carried us
With a life to live
Just go

Can we move through this struggle?
Can we push past the pain?
Can we all climb this mountain?
Can we do us again?

I’m letting go of who I am
I’m running towards the ocean
Drown the thoughts that weigh me down
I’m letting go
I’m changing now
Back before the voices
Twisted up and tore me down
I’m letting go

I know the truth
And the sky’s falling down
Lies coming out, I’m done
I know the truth
And the sky’s falling down
Lies coming out, I’m done

I’m letting go of who I am
I’m running towards the ocean
Drown the thoughts that weigh me down
I’m letting go
I’m changing now
Back before the voices
Twisted up and tore me down
I’m letting go


7. REFLECTION

I look in the mirror, at me, it's so hazy
I look like a shell that's just barely breathing
Why does it move when I'm standing still?

Am I the reflection?
Am I fucking crazy?
Who do you see?
You judge the cover with the scars so deep
So tell me now who do you see?

I could see it in my reflection
All along
The face that hides me
I should of seen this all along
You tore me open
Now you see what lies beneath my skin
Who have I become?
I've got to live with what I've done

I'll tell you mine if you tell me yours
Secrets best kept with a similar cause
If only the weight of the world was gone
I'd see that this life has so much more
Who do you see?
You judge the cover with the scars so deep
So tell me now who do you see

I could see it in my reflection
All along
The face that hides me
I should of seen this all along
You tore me open
Now you see what lies beneath my skin
Who have I become?
I've got to live with what I've done

Who do you see?
‘Cause I know it's me


8. DONE FOR GOOD

I'm focusing on everything
They forced me to stop
So I'm starting again

I feel so alive
I'll take what's mine
You get what you give. it all just takes some time
I'm searching for a saviour
But the prayers won't reach the end
I've got to leave this life behind me
Just push me from the edge
I'm breaking the cycle
And I'm starting this again
I'm taking the high road
And I'm dreaming of the end
It's all I know

Tried talking to God
But fell on deaf ears
Changing the tide means forgetting your fears
There's no rescue
No help from above
You'll find in yourself how to change
What's on the cards
I'm searching for a saviour
But the prayers won't reach the end
I've got to leave this life behind me
Just push me from the edge
I'm breaking the cycle
And I'm starting this again
I'm taking the high road
And I'm dreaming of the end
It's all I know

Woke up, I'm alive now
I can see past the horizon
See the shimmer on the waters edge
As the calm breeze hits against my chest
Woke up, I'm alive now
I can see past the horizon
See the shimmer on the waters edge
As the calm breeze hits against my chest
I'm not done for good
I'm not done for good

Woke up, I'm alive now
I can see past the horizon
See the shimmer on the waters edge
As the calm breeze hits against my chest
Woke up, I'm alive now
I can see past the horizon
See the shimmer on the waters edge
As the calm breeze hits against my chest
I'm not done for good
I'm not done for good
I'm not done for good


9. PATHWAYS

Who are you talking to
You’re not welcome to stay
You’re making me sick
Like a ship in rough seas
I want to bury you
Deep inside
I want to lock you up
In the back of my mind

I'm losing sight of me
But I can't help myself
God knows the things I've done
When I dragged my life through hell

This demon’s out to get me
Pour the poison down my throat
And it’s breathing in the air I'm
Slowly choking on my ghosts

I know you have the key
Ruin whats left of me
According to you
I'm nothing anyway
I want to bury you
Deep inside
I want to lock you up
In the back of my mind

When the bottle hits my lips
I can't stop till I'm a mess
I thought this was my release
From the sorrow and the grief
What’s inside of me
What’s this side of me
What’s inside of me
What’s this side of me


10. UNBROKEN

Break what needs to be broken
Save what needs to be saved
I'll bleed for this if that is what it takes

Cause this is war

This is war
I'm crawling through the dead
The ghosts that call my name
With a shadow in my heart
And I'm swallowing the pain
I'm falling down again
I'm broken on the inside
The pieces never mend
I'm dying to forget

Try, you know we got to survive
Is this as bad as the last time?
I need to find the strength again
I'll bleed for this if that is what it takes
Cause this is war

This is war
I'm crawling through the dead
The ghosts that call my name
With a shadow in my heart
And I'm swallowing the pain
I'm falling down again
I'm broken on the inside
The pieces never mend
I'm dying to forget

We can't run any longer
We can't step to the side
We need to face these feelings
We need to fight for life

This is war

I'm crawling through the dead
The ghosts that call my name
With a shadow in my heart
And I'm swallowing the pain
I'm falling down again
I'm broken on the inside
The pieces never mend
I'm dying to forget


11. BRING ME HOME

I feel like I've got nothing left
Been searching so long for a reason to live
The deeper I dig, the more I'm losing my grip

If I let go would you hold on anyway?
I'm at the edge
I'm facing the end
Should I leave it all behind?
Can I live this life?
Wake me up
Save me
I'm lost and I'm alone
Take me home

Goodbyes only getting harder
I see it on your face that you
Hope it's the last time
Ink's blurred on the page
Tears falling from rafters
I hope I choose well when I'm playing with fire
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
I'm coming home

I'm getting back to me
Back to the man that you need me to be
It's been so long, I've been so far away
Give me one more chance you'll see
The best of me
I'm at the edge
I'm facing the end
Should I leave it all behind?
Can I live this life?
Wake me up
Save me
I'm lost and I'm alone
Take me home

I've watched as I fall
Now watch as I fall away
From the stars to the oceans
And I'm floating far away

You are the rope, you are the anchor
Holding me back from the edge
You are the strength and the love
To bring me home again

I'm at the edge
I'm facing the end
Should I leave it all behind?
Can I live this life?
Wake me up
Save me
I'm lost and I'm alone
Take me home


12. LIONS BELOW

Stand up
Be a man
Take it on the chin like I know you can

Those walls must be closing
Choking all the air
Empty your lungs with your lies
You scared?

All alone in the dark in the end
We're all connected, black silk from your web
Draining the life out of dreams I have dreamed
I hope that you hear this, I'll never forget
Glad you're gone

You'll never hear me say
That I'll need you here to watch me
Watch me walk away

Go ahead admit that you're wrong
You'll feel so much better
Your conscious so torn
How do you sleep? Do you lie awake?
Do you dream of hell or just your mistakes?
Open your eyes and peek through holes
Jump the fence and run with the wolves
How would it feel on the other side?
How would it feel with nowhere to hide?
Glad you're gone

You'll never hear me say
That I'll need you here to watch me
Watch me walk away
Now I'm alive and I'll cut these ties tonight
And I'm dying to survive
And you've taken all that's mine

Now I'm alive
As the candle loses light
The hope is burning bright
All the bridges set on fire
Now I'm alive
Now I'm alive

I see straight through your eyes
Where you hide behind the lies
I see straight through your eyes
Where you hide behind the lies
I see straight through your eyes
I see straight through your eyes

Now I'm alive and I'll cut these ties tonight
And I'm dying to survive
And you've taken all that's mine

Now I'm alive
As the candle loses light
The hope is burning bright
All the bridges set on fire
Now I'm alive
