1. MECHANICAL MAN

... I need and it's never-ending
Who am i? Wasted
Who am i this time?
Who am i? Wasted
Who am i?
I regret every moment
And i mourn
Every piece of memory
That i've lived this way
Why should i try?
Otherwise... Who am i this time?
I need and i can only give myself
The strength to look the other way
Why should i try?
Otherwise.. Who am i this time?
Give me electricity..
Given my life to sacrifice
Nothing left to call myself
Caught up in my purpose
Can't seem to get
What i want
What i want
Can't seem to get
What it is that i want
I said, he's on the left,
She's on the right
That leaves me no place to go
I'm buried under layer
After layer after layer of device
Who am i?
Wasted. Who am i this time?
Who am i? Wasted
Otherwise, this time


2. IN THE SHADOW OF THE SUN

The horizon closed down
What did you see before the world went dark?
I know i have no home now
No place to hide
My home is in your space
Stranger
No place to hide
The edge of the water cracks
And you can see
They all have the same face
Brother
Is there room
For a sister now that
Your bed is gone?
Destroy
Destroy
Destroy..
Brother, friend is foe
And life is a struggle to survive
Brother. Destroy.
Stranger...
Like dust and we fall
And we fall and we fall...
The horizon closed down
What did you see before the world went dark?
I know i have no home now
Give me some place to hide
No escaping the horizon
No escaping the war
Brother, we are home
The horizon closed down


3. FIRES OF SORROW

...you're so pale
The lines of your eyes are weathered
Your broken arms
Can hold me no longer
You're so pale
Now i'm falling down faster
Can't see the ground yet
But i know it's cold and wet
I see you
In every cracked line
You haunt me
While i chase your ghost
I can't seem to catch you
I just can't face your grave
You're lost in the darkness
You cannot hear me
I'm lost against the background
Wherever i look you can't be found
The shadows fall around me
And i can't see where i want to go
Because because because
You're so pale and dead
I just can't face your grave
???
Release me
Let me go..


4. VISION AND THE VERITY

Met up with my soul again on a cold dark road
It got tired of me a long time ago
So i've been living alone
Do you know what it is to be dead like me?
Can you feel what it is to be dead like me?
Can you feel what it is to be?
I cut out my heart just the other day
Held it in my hand
Said it doesn't work that well anyway
Who needs blood coarsing through veins..
This is the stain of my father's shame
This body is ravaged by disease and despair-
I just wanted to get away from there
Who needs blood coarsing through veins..
This is the stain of my father's shame
I'm tired of feeling so weary and old
So tired so hopeless so lifeless and cold
I can almost mark the day
When my soul began to fade away
No longer scared of the ghosts i used to see-
I'm one of them, they're just like me
I can almost mark the day
When my hope began to fade away
Down on the road i saw a dead man
Said, dead man, you look a lot like me
Who needs blood. Who needs shame
From my father all this came
So i picked up the dead man, put him across my back
Said, dead man, we're going to fade away into the day..
Departed my soul again on a cold dark road


5. KINGDOM'S END

I'm bleeding this time
For no reason at all
I just miss the feeling
Of losing it all
So used to it
I am the cave of life and death
And the blood that makes the clock tick
I didn't ask for it
Felt so hollow
Had to dry up and out my skin
To hold my insides in
I'm so uncomfortable
But the skin
Holds the decay in
Scraping the pins along the skin
Release the decay within
I am the cave of life and death
And the blood that makes the clock tick
I didn't ask for it
Disease.....
Your flesh
Dancing to the drum of rot
Rhythm of disintegration...
One battle, two with death
Came and pulled me out by the breath
Doesn't make the pain of living go away
Don't want to face the world today
Disease.....
Used to fight with death
Several times a night
Facing that brick wall
Choking for my life
We got to be good friends
Death and i
I'd never give in and he'd never lie
Scratch till i pop up a vein
Feel the hollow walls
Sucking air that'll never get anywhere
When this chemical lung gives out
I'll be living at my body's mercy.
Until then
I'm living at someone else's mercy


6. AFTER THE FLOOD

(Instrumental)


7. SLEEPING THE WICKED

Find a lost man
Lost in his loss of control
Find a lost man
Get lost in his loss of control
Become useful
For the use of the user
Become the dog bone
Then chew your way out
Her way into the game
Is to ride his wild dick
Get close to me
Then maybe you can be me
Fire find a lost man
Lost in his loss of control
Forget your own
Forget your own displacement
Her way into the game
Is to ride his wild dick
Get close to me then
Maybe you can be me
So base in the basement of your body..you stink
Fill her so she can feel wanted
So she can fill a purpose
Fire make a habit deceive me
Tell a fucked up story be showered with pity
Fire i feel nothing for you
I am nothing like you
Bred a victim born again a warrior
Now i just don't care about the war
Fire fire is the colour of my eyes
Burns straight to the inside


8. SURVIVING THE SIREN

On beaches of bone
The siren sings
And you cover your ears
But it's the song you used to sing
There's no escaping
As you are pulled into the sea...
And he said
I'm gonna sail my ship
Away from this shore
Can't feel my soul within me anymore
So he followed a song
He heard within his heart
It was bound for disaster
Right from the start
He's gonna get it
After just one day into his journey
He was well off course -
Gave in to the easy way out
Then he came to his senses
Towed in a line of regret
But it was too late -
He was caught in her net
He's gonna get it
Woe is me
Well, i asked for it
This is what i deserve
Well, i asked for it
Wait till we get outta here
He yelled to the captain
Then we'll get our freedom back
I'm trapped in the stare
He said
I've gotta get my soul back
Woe is me.well, i asked for it
This is what i deserve
I can't take my eyes off of her
If i can't have her no one can
Because i'm the man
Woe is me
Well, i asked for it
This is what i deserve
I'm gonna wring your neck
Gonna wring your neck
I'm gonna gonna wring
Your neck neck neck
Now the ship's going down
We'll wreck upon the rocks
And we'll be fed upon
Woe is me. There's no escaping
I'm scared and i want outta here
But i can't turn the ship back
Woe is me. There's no escaping
I take full responsibility
He begged to the captain
I couldn't keep my dick in my pants
There's no escaping..
On beaches of bone
The siren sings
And you cover your ears
But it's the song you used to sing
There's no escaping
As you are pulled into the sea


9. TAKE THE LOW ROAD

... In all this time i have found
That no one speaks my language
I learned long ago
That i walk alone
I don't believe in me
What can i say
2 days dark and grey
And not much different from yesterday
I hate what i am
Not much more pleased
With what i've become
Used to close the door and sleep away the days
I don't believe in you
What can i say, time is the enemy
It makes me empty
It is the thief of me
So i went to the big door
And asked the old man for a favor
Show me a brighter day
Down here in this mud where i'm stuck
Felt a ghost of myself running away
Show me a better way
I hate what i am
Not much more pleased
With what i've become
Used to close the door and sleep away the days
But i've come to face the day
When my childhood was taken away
These movements of displacement say:
Yesterday will never be back again
Build a wall around inside out
I won't let you out
i won't let you in
Caught up to my knees in mistakes


10. DISCIPLINE OF DEGRADATION

Seething in this red world
I am nothing
Thrown to the roadside
I carry the death
Of the desert on my skin
Have you looked into these eyes
Feel the cracks in my hands
From soul to skin
I am dry and i am alone
I eat gravel
Shakes in my stomach
To drown
The voices in my head
The sun's too far away
And you don't notice
Crawling, i am worthless
And i am alone
...one and two
And i see 2 faces below me
And i see yours in both
But one is open the other is closed...
There is no dignity
There is no grace, and i am alone
Seething in this red world
I am nothing
Sold to a false hope
Now i just float along in this dead ocean
There is no dignity, there is no grace
And i am alone in this dead ocean
