1. GRAVESIDE CONFESSIONS

All I see is a blood red moon
All I see are suicide wounds
I could die tonight, it's never too soon

All I see are enemies
It's demons as far as I can see
I have reoccurring vampire dreams

I look into the mirror and I don't want to see anything
Whispers that go on forever
All I hear is screaming since... I can't remember

Hand of the shadow
You're in my projection
Verbal misdirection
Inner Insurrection
A living death sentence
I am death in its essence
A living death sentence
I am death in its essence

These are my graveside confessions

All I see is a blood red moon
All I see are suicide wounds
I could die tonight, it's never too soon
All I see are enemies
It's demons as far as I can see
I have reoccurring vampire dreams

I've thought about death so much I don't fear her anymore
When I die I'm not gone you just won't see my human form
And when you sing these words back
No god will forgive you for that

Hand of the shadow
You're in my projection
Verbal misdirection
Inner insurrection
A living death sentence

I am death in its essence
I am a living death sentence

My last words before death
Let me remind you of who I really am
These are my graveside confessions

Nail me in the casket
Its just me and my depression
I've already died
And there no fucking heaven
Graveside Confessions
We can all meet death together
Let these songs be our good bye letters
Graveside Confessions
And when you sing these words back
No god will forgive you for that

My Graveside

My last words before death
I'll go deeper I'll get darker than anyone of them
I don't pick and choose who I judge
Fuck everything
Fuck everyone
Let me remind you of who i really am
A forgotten one
A fallen one
Drowned in blood of unforgiving sins


2. PRAY FR PEACE

Black widows and grave dirt
All the pills in the world
And it's still going to hurt
Bleeding out takes forever up and down makes it quick
This is for the heretics
You will only find hopelessness in my lyrics
An entire generation on the edge of suicide
I can fucking feel it

Blood against velvet our worlds wrapped in sorrow
Dreams in black and white, for us there's no tomorrow
I've sat with death and this is what we said

From the lips of death
Unholy forgotten text
There is no eternal rest

In my heart of hearts
I'm a cold blooded nihilist
I don't believe in god
Or good things
Only death exists
You can pray for peace
You can pray for peace but death is all you get

I've been saved, god's silence was deafening
I've prayed to Satan and it was the same thing
You can pray for peace but death is all you get

When I have this war paint on
I don't even hear the songs
All I feel is the wrath of hell
Self inflicted wounds that never healed
When I'm on this stage I'll look though you and into the void
Kill. Erase. Destroy

All the violent deaths we died
The lives we stole to save another life
All those times we crossed over and left a part on the other side

In my heart of hearts
I'm a cold blooded nihilist
I don't believe in god
Or good things
Only death exists
You can pray for peace
You can pray for peace but death is all you get

I've been saved, god's silence was deafening
I've prayed to Satan, it was the same thing
You can pray for peace but death is all you get

Blood against velvet our worlds wrapped in sorrow
Dreams in black and white, for us there's no tomorrow
From the lips of death
Unholy forgotten text
There is no eternal rest

In my heart of hearts
I'm a cold blooded nihilist
I don't believe in god
Or good things
Only death exists
You can pray for peace
You can pray for peace but death is all you get

I've been saved, god's silence was deafening
I've prayed to Satan, it was the same thing
You can pray for peace
You can pray for peace but death is all you get

Black widows and grave dirt all the pills in the world
And it's still going to hurt
Bleeding out takes forever up and down makes it quick
This is for the heretics
You will only find hopelessness in my lyrics
An entire generation on the edge of suicide
I can fucking feel it


3. SEVEN SOULS

Seven souls and two dead eyes
Who am I, who am I tonight?
Seven souls and two dead eyes
Who am I, who am I tonight?

Look death in the eyes and see what I see
No lies and no disguise
God of death is the only god I need

I'm a soul that can't be at peace
Maybe you're just like me
My greatest enemy is when I sit and think

I'm back from the dead, with the same old heart
Embrace this pain, before it tears you apart
Soulless, we all died young
I'm back from the grave with my dead friends in my lungs
I'm more like you than you think
When I look in the mirror, I still hate what I see
Crossed out
This is the only real me

There's subtext in these songs I don't even know about
The past lives they hid lines just to fuck around
Inevitable, it's what I know deep down
Tortured souls, they go fast, they don't last
And I won't always be around
No, I won't always be around

Ask me no questions and I'll tell you no lies
You want to know if I'm really dead behind the eyes
You want to know if I'm going to scare you tonight
You want to know if I want to take my life

Ask me no questions and I'll tell you no lies
I'm seven souls
Seven souls and two dead eyes

To you it's a wall of sound
But I can see them
And their here right now
In the shadows, way deep down

Unholy souls
Let yourself be known
So I can let go
Give into my violent soul, that inner asshole
I just want to get my finger on the trigger and pull, pull, pull...

My violent soul
That inner asshole

One of these souls has a shelf life
That fucker wanted me dead by 25
And every day since I've been restless
I know its just a matter of time

I'm back from the dead, with the same old heart
Embrace this pain, before it tears you apart
Soulless, and we all died young
I'm back from the grave with my dead friends in my lungs
I'm more like you than you think
When I look in the mirror, I still hate what I see
Crossed out
This is the only real me

Seven souls
Seven souls
Seven souls
Seven souls

Seven souls and two dead eyes
Who am I, who am I tonight?
Seven souls and two dead eyes
And I'm lost, lost inside


4. CURSED

I have death tattooed on my soul
A thousand years of past lives etched in stone
I have the keys to all the locked rooms
Put me inside so you don't have to
All those secrets so far down
I can get in but I can't get out

They spoke in tongues and put their spells on me
Shadows in the afterlife held by ethereal entities
Death will find you and you will suffer
Antithesis of life, bereft of lovers
Break the curse

Death take me first
I have death tattooed on my soul
A thousand years of past lives etched in stone
All those secrets so far down
I can get in but I can't get out

Cursed
I think I've been cursed
Fucking Cursed

Alchemy
Their whispered words a weapon that kills with ease
Necromancy
Conjuring our separation from reality
Alchemy
Necromancy
All these ghosts they don't want to be free
It's death that's really obsessed with me

Break the curse
All these voices they're only getting worse
Death take me first
Inside it's past lives and it fucking hurts
I play with guns
I play with knives
I don't give a fuck anymore
Anything that leaves a scar behind

Break the curse
Death take me first
I have death tattooed on my soul
A thousand years of past lives etched in stone
All those secrets so far down
I can get in but I can't get out

Cursed
I think Ive been cursed
Fucking Cursed

Lie to me, stab me in the back
End it all for me, get your last laugh
Cursed
I think I've been cursed
Fucking Cursed
Cursed


5. CARRY US AWAY

Blackened skies have followed me all my life
But it ends tonight

Crawling through the void, there is no peace for me
Destructive by nature, there no hope for me
I tried than I died, death is all that waits for me

They warned me and I'll warn you
They'll get under your skin
They'll stick to you
And I'm only here now 'cause I made it through
I made it through

The words on this page
The blood on this stage
That's all we have
That's what we take to the grave
When the world starts to blur
I know they're not just words
They are more than their meaning
You and me we die in a dream
That's all we have
To carry us away

These are eyes that I can hide behind
It's easy to swallow all my lies
Truth is, these songs got a hold on me
Turned me into something I'm not suppose to be
I was found DOA in my last life
Repeat might be tonight

Blackened skies have followed me all my life
But it all ends tonight
My worst nightmares they live inside
These are ghosts that have haunted me all my life
This is a letter to all the people that I'll never meet
Farewell to everything that I was suppose to be

The words on this page
The blood on this stage
That's all we have
That's what we take to the grave
When the world starts to blur
I know their not just words
They are more than their meaning
You and me we die in a dream
That's all we have
To carry us away

They warned me and I'll warn you
They'll get under your skin
They'll stick to you
And I'm only here 'cause I made it through

I'm not killing myself
I'm killing the voice that turned my head into hell

It's not that I want you to clean my thoughts from the walls
Sometimes it gets so dark I can't escape it all
I don't want you to hear about my death and wonder how
But I've tried thrice, I shouldn't be here now
Could that really happen
Could you all just vanish
Could that really happen
I'm afraid to ask it


6. TALK TO THE DEAD

Some nights I know my life will end with violence
Some nights I'll do anything for silence
I'll punch a hole with some lead
Just to get the ghosts out of my head

There's a little truth inside all these lies
I hide myself well in between the lines
I've been here before, so I know how it ends

I know how it ends

I can talk to the dead but it's not what you think
Secret lives & broken promises
All the pain that made there heart's break

Push the .45 against my temple
The room goes silent, now it's uncomfortable
I'll plant a seed for your own inner torment
Life is hell but we're going to enjoy it

I'll feel better with deaths hands around my neck
All I want to do is sleep in my death bed
Put me in a deep sleep
I don't want to wake up for weeks

Locked in the darkest parts of my soul
I told you before this hell is home
Scream till you bleed
Die in front me

No matter where I look there is no real me
I want to taste the tears as they roll down my face
To make up for the years when I couldn't feel a thing
I'm not a real person, just other peoples memories

My face hurts from faking it
Tonight I'm not making it
Black roses on my grave
Bury me with razor blades
The further back you go
The bigger the horror gets
I see life running though me
But I don't exist

I can talk to the dead but it's not what you think
Secret lives & broken promises,
All the pain that made there heart break
I can talk to the dead but it's not what you think
In the after life their is no light, their drawn to me every time I scream
Let death reach out and touch you
Let it take its pound of flesh from you


7. JNUARY NIGHTS

(Instrumental)


8. CEMETERY WANDER
Graves beneath my feet
Dead grass and dead memories
These are the stories of the recently deceased
17 years old I still remember the day
My life changed when I lowered a child into the grave

Her mother stood over her, cuffed and chained
With her moment of silence, this is what she said
I love you little angel, I didn't mean what I did
No I love you's brought anyone back from the dead
They walked her out of there, shot gun in her back,
I have so many memories and a lot are worse than that
Dead in my arms
We've already been there

The soldier that that took his life, in front of his wife
She watched a bullet leave the back of his head
Life just isn't right
We did an open casket for him that day
When I close my eyes I can still see his face

I'm not saying life is pointless
In the context of time and space
We are not important
Find what you love, hold it close
Make the most of it
Two teenage couples out on graduation night
Celebrating all the things ahead of them in life
My morning was three teenagers in the reefer
One in ICU but death still got to her

I saw her ghost in the cemetery later that same day
Blonde hair pulled back, I know it's cliche

Cemetery wander and I remember every body I put in the ground
Three bodies a day for three years
I've got so many of ghosts around
I laid my hands on every single one
I knelt and prayed with their loved ones
I locked the casket when it was done
Let's give in to our true nature
Turn on the ones you love

Eat the young
I have baggage
I have demons

You don't want to met them
You don't want to see them
I laid six souls in the ground that day,
That's why they stick to me
I just want you to hear it
I just want you to feel it
You know I'm laughing at these lyrics
I just need you to get it
I just need you to live it

And never forget it
I just want you to cringe
So think twice about reading this

Cemetery wander and I remember every body I put in the ground
Three bodies a day for three years, I've got so many of ghosts around
I laid my hands on every single one I knelt and prayed with their loved ones
I locked the casket when it was done

Cemetery wander and I remember ever body I put in the ground
Three bodies a day for three years, I've got so many of ghosts around


9. COUNTESS OF PERPETUAL TORMENT

This will be the last time that you ever hear from me
An inmate in my own asylum, that's where you'll find me
Walk into the light until you can't see
Die waiting, like the world will be

Just scream it
Don't even think about it

She feeds off that energy
Just like Dracula inside me

2083 the year of my death
99 years possessed by the countess
Forever in love with death
Bound to the countess of perpetual torment

Lost girls looking for their lost boys
We're all in hell
Love is a lie, we're all empty inside
And I'll go to my grave with that truth to tell
I'll draw blood that I don't even need
Just to see you writhe
Just to see you bleed
I'll take this to continuity

When the record's over you won't know what to do with me
I'll take this to dark fucking places
When you're in my head
You're in hell
No safe spaces

I'm here for the death penalty
Kill em all, no gods to sort em out
That's what I want to see
I'll be here when death knocks at my door
Waiting for the end
I can't take it anymore

2083 the year of my death
99 years possessed by the Countess
Forever in love with death
Bound to the Countess of perpetual torment

I can write about anything
But when I scream
Death is all that comes out of me
One cut more and it all goes black
One cut more and I'm not coming back
All these years and I know my abuser
Her name is death
And I've gotten used to her

She wants to drag me down to hell
I'm already there so you might as well
I am one of those kids that got fucked with
These are not just words, I am actually sick
This is for the ones that live at the edge of the abyss
In our world only death can save us


10. DEAD BODIES EVERYWHERE (KOЯN COVER)

Come on, step inside
And you will realize
Tell me what you need?
Tell me what to be?
What's your vision you'll see?
What do you expect of me?
I can't live that lie
Hate a sick mom with a fucked dad
Dealing with your life dead bodies everywhere
You really want me to be a good son
Why you make me feel like no one
Let me strip the plain
Let me not give in
Free me of your life
Inside my heart dies
Your dreams never achieved
Don't lay that shit on me
Let me live my life
Hate a sick mom with a fucked dad
Dealing with your life dead bodies everywhere
You
Really want me to be a good son
Why you make me feel like no one?
You want me to be something I can never ever be
You want me to be something I can never ever be
A sick mom with a fucked dad
Dealing with your life dead bodies everywhere
You really want me to be a good son
Why you make me feel like no one?
Dead bodies everywhere
Dead bodies everywhere
Dead bodies everywhere
Dead bodies everywhere
Dead bodies everywhere
Dead bodies everywhere
Dead bodies everywhere
Dead bodies everywhere


11. COLD DEAD SUMMER
Carved in stone
Its tombstones for us all
It looks like the road to hell
But I don't know where it goes
Painted in blood
I gave my soul but it wasn't enough
Time grows life just to kill love
Painted in blood
But its never enough
Now we rot in the summer sun
Dreaming of oceans
Oceans of blood
Now we rot
Now we rot in the cold dead summer sun
This is where you lay down
I'll prepare you for your grave now
Close yourself inside your casket
Sometimes I want to go back
To stand with the dead everyday
When grief left them with nothing to say
Somber silence went on for days
I can still hear them pray
They all sounded the same
And they didn't change a thing
I thought you wanted to see blood
I thought you cut just because
Death in repose
These are brand new lows
Death in repose
Suicide pact with all my demons
I'm going to free them
Finally you'll see them
Too many skeletons for one man's closet
Too many demons with their claws in
I have death in my heart right now
I'm ready to go and I don't care how
Now we rot in the summer sun
Dreaming of oceans
Oceans of blood
Now we rot in the cold dead summer sun
Sometimes I want to go back
To stand with the dead everyday
When grief left them with nothing to say
somber silence went on for days
I can still hear them pray
They all sounded the same
And they didn't change a thing
Death is all that waits for you and me
I thought you wanted to see blood
I thought you cut just because
Death in repose
These are brand new lows
Death in repose
Utopis, the land that can not be
There is no heaven above the earth
Theres no hell below the dirt
Death is all waits for you and me


12. ALIVE FOR THE LAST TIME

Alive for the last time
I'm lost inside
With no respite
This is the moment I cross over
The old me dies and I'm one step closer

Scars on scars from different decades
It's not supposed to end this way
Scars on scars
It's not a fucking phase

I only am fight or flight
If it's fight I'm ready to die
Death will end the suffering
It's better in the end
Just trust me
I'm your inner voice
Your fucking best friend

Anything to get away
Separate myself from my soul

Anything to get away
Separate myself from my soul

A little more time and you'll remind people when I was alive
A few more lies and I'll convince you everything is fine
A little is good than more is better
These seem like songs but they're suicide letters
All these songs end the same
No matter where it starts, it ends in the grave

Anything to get away
Separate myself from my soul


13. COLLABORATING LIKE KILLERS (RE-RECORDED VERSION)

I'll make you suffer alone
And make you think it was meant to be
I'll rip apart your soul
And make you think it was meant to be

Close, close your eyes
And breathe my
Breathe my
Breathe my lies

Collaborating like, like killers
Collaborating like killers
Collaborating like, like killers

All the beauty you'll never see
All the things you'll never be
Never be

Collaborating like killers
Collaborating like killers
Like killers
Collaborating like killers

Collaborating like killers

All the beauty you'll never see
All the things you'll never be


14. MY HEART IN ATROPHY (RE-CORDED VERSION)

If only my words could capture my feelings
So thoughtless and empty, so void of any real meaning
Meaning

It feels like I'm looking at life from the past
Half alive or half dead, I don't think I can last

Your thought freeze the blood to my heart
Kill the thoughts to my mind
Kill the thoughts to my mind

When I walk by you'll never see me
When I crack a smile you'll never see me

I'm giving up I'm letting you drown
I'm giving up I'm letting you drown

You can't stop me now
You can't stop me now

You can't stop me now
You can't stop me now

15. SLIT WRIST SAVIOR (RE-CORDED VERSION)

That was her first time
That was her last time

Cut at your face
Blood in the sink
You'll hate yourself
Till the day you die

Till the day you die

Blood on your hands
Blood on your legs
Why does this happen time and time again?
Time and time again

Blood

I should have sown my heart in my chest
Our eyes should have never met

Slit wrist savior
She cuts to see blood
