1. BLOOD IN THE WATER

They can smell blood in the water
Circle ‘round waiting to strike

They want your soul seduce you with their lies
Selling death the end of the sublime
Obfuscate the fog of deception
Sowing hate to drag you to their end

Drowning down into the darkness below
A slave to the slaughter
Sinking down into the blackout you go
There's blood in the water

Listen close the heart of deception
Beating loud the rhythm expands

They want your soul seduce you with their lies
Selling death, the end of the sublime
Obfuscate the fog of deception
Sowing hate to bring you to their end

Drowning down into the darkness below
A slave to the slaughter
Sinking down in to the blackout you go
There's blood in the water

They want your soul seduce you with their lies
Selling death the end of the sublime
Obfuscate the fog of deception
Sowing hate to bring you to their end

Drowning down into the darkness below
A slave to the slaughter
Sinking down in to the blackout you go
There's blood in the water


2. BURN THE SKY

The heat is rising fast and furious the midnight air is warm and dry
Take a few drags and drop the mortars it's OK if you want to die
The insignificant blaze you've conquered chest out chin up sixth marine
So damn confident so experienced I can't handle it kill my fear

But who are you to decide
Who lives who burns and who dies
You're not the one to be so bold
Making decisions only God should hold

Burn the sky - born to die
You end a bloodline generations at a time
Burn the sky - left to die
A cloud of souls rises up to veil the moon and burn the sky

Under cover on the horizon the blackened quilt of deep despair
The path of a beast that's ever hungry the more it eats the bigger the better than
Trained for the battle the warriors in gear
The bravest of the brave have given lives right here

But who are you to decide
Who lives who burns and who dies
You're not the one to be so bold
Making decisions only God should hold

Burn the sky - born to die
You end a bloodline generations at a time
Burn the sky - left to die
A cloud of souls rises up to veil the moon and burn the sky

Burn the sky - born to die
You end a bloodline generations at a time
Burn the sky - left to die
A cloud of souls rises up to veil the moon and burn the sky


3. BRACE FOR IMPACT

You can see it coming right before your very eyes
Terror hits before the inclination to survive
Can you react in time to save what will become
Or will you be taken by surprise

Grab a hold - take a seat
Bow your head and tighten up and spread your feet
Grab the rail - close your eyes
Grit your teeth and hope it isn't time to die

Bracing for the impact - bracing for the pain
Bracing for the impact - driving me insane
Bracing for the impact - bracing for the pain
Bracing for the impact - driving me insane

You can't get out of the way no matter how you try
If you don't brace for impact there's a chance to die

Grab a hold - take a seat
Bow your head and tighten up and spread your feet
Grab the rail - close your eyes
Grit your teeth and hope it isn't time to die

Bracing for the impact - bracing for the pain
Bracing for the impact - driving me insane
Bracing for the impact - bracing for the pain
Bracing for the impact - driving me insane

Some will only venture where the railing keeps them in
Some will trust a man but not his fate
Following a path that others have chosen for you
Safer and so more controlled than blazing your way through

Bracing for the impact - bracing for the pain
Bracing for the impact - driving me insane
Bracing for the impact - bracing for the pain
Bracing for the impact - driving me insane

Brace for Impact
Brace for Impact
Brace for Impact
Brace for Impact


4. A PLACE TO DIE

I can see the face of the ever clear I see apparitions fly
Shadows falling in my peripheral turn to see them and they hide
Double vision and out of focus heat rising from deep within
I am dying inside from the thirst another drink to make things clear

I just need a place where I can die
A place where I can be who I see in my mind
Searching for a place where I can live
Live with my demons and the terror they can give

I can feel the pounding of the spinning earth voices whisper in my ear
Feels like my head may come apart blood is flowing from my ear
Operate with one eye open decisions not so clear
I can hear the call of the captain calming nerves and always there

I just need a place where I can die
A place where I can be who I see in my mind
Searching for a place where I can live
Live with my demons and the terror they can give

One shot two shot - three shots more
One more for the road before I hit the door
One to hide the shame - one to heal the pain
Numbing all the choices I have made

I just need a place where I can die
A place where I can be who I see in my mind
Searching for a place where I can live - a place to live
Live with my demons and the terror they can give - terror they can give

I just need a place where I can die - a place where I can die
A place where I can be who I see in my mind
Searching for a place where I can live - searching for a place
Live with my demons and the terror they can give


5. THE WALLS

When the sky is coming down
When you feel like you're going to drown
When you know the end is all that you've been looking for
When the pain is too much to bear
When there's no one who will care
And you've gone down every avenue and still can't catch a break

I can feel emotions I have no time for
This can't be all there is there's something I'm here for

I can see the walls are falling down on me
I can see the walls are falling they crumble to the sea
I can see my dreams are broken laying on the ground
I can see the walls are falling - I can see the walls are falling down

And it's such a permanent thing
No prize and no brass ring
And there are no more lives to find along the way
Understand how you must feel
It is the only thing that's really real
And you can't go back you cannot change your mind

I can feel emotions I have no time for
This can't be all there is there's something I'm here for

I can see the walls are falling down on me
I can see the walls are falling they crumble to the sea
I can see my dreams are broken laying on the ground
I can see the walls are falling - I can see the walls are falling down

I can feel emotions I have no time for
This can't be all there is there's something I'm here for

I can see the walls are falling down on me
I can see the walls are falling they crumble to the sea
I can see my dreams are broken laying on the ground
I can see the walls are falling - I can see the walls are falling down

I can see the walls are falling - I can see the walls are falling
I can see the walls are falling down
Falling down - are falling - I can see the walls are falling
Down - I can see the walls are falling
Falling down - I can see the walls are falling down


6. CRY FOR THE DEAD

I'm in the middle of a catastrophe
I can't mourn for those behind me

I stand staring at the stones upon the ground
The tribute within the granite on the mound

I can't live without the ones I love
I am nothing without them now

You can't imagine how it feels to me
You know I won't survive this tragedy

I stand counting all the stones upon the ground
And read the names on the granite in the mound

I can't live without the ones I love
I am nothing without them now
I can't live without the ones I need
Don't know if I know how

I am shadowed by the thoughts in my own head
And I'm not ashamed that I cry for the dead

We may never heal from our history
We may never care or feel again

I walk away from counting stones upon the ground
It's so peaceful here the dead don't make a sound

I can't live without the ones I love
I am nothing without them now
I can't live without the ones I need
Don't know if I know how

I am shadowed by the thoughts in my own head
And I'm not ashamed that I cry for the dead

I can't live without the ones I love


7. THE WICKED HOUR

Cold and gray, I call my home it's very dark and overgrown
Life will hide just out of sight into the shadows of the night
The hair will raise upon your back in place of some unknown attack
The freezing touch that bites the skin the terror ready to begin

The cold wind blows through the deadest of the trees
I have gotten dark in my alone
There is nothing forcing stopping me
I will take the weight of sitting throne

The angels falling hard
You can't begin to understand
I can smell the scent of deviation in the air
The wicked hour close at hand

I live under the mask of darkness
A blackened veil of the unknown
I need a sign to follow up into the light
The wicked hour finds me alone

Every turn the same routine the smell of death and gasoline
The mist and smoke are in your eye the feeling you're about to die
The bumps that raise upon your skin tell it's about to begin
The unexplained is present here and now

An icy chill to paralyze your spine
I am in the darkness when alone
No gun to my head as you can see
Take on everything as if my own

The angels playing cards
And never giving up their hands
I can see the signs of deviation in their eyes
The wicked hour close at hand

I live under the mask of darkness
A blackened veil of the unknown
I need a sign to follow up into the light
The wicked hour finds me alone

Angels falling hard
You can't begin to understand
I can smell the scent of deviation in the air
The wicked hour close at hand

I live under the mask of darkness - mask of darkness
A blackened veil of the unknown - of the unknown
I need a sign to follow up into the light
The wicked hour finds me alone


8. TOO MANY LIVES

Evil was in the air back in the day inside your mind - your mind
Over now an over saturation keeps it live - alive

Too many people too many lives
And most are evil look in their eyes

Horror you see the numbers and the world has reached it's end - the end
Dying as the people spread like locusts on the land - this land

Too many people too many lives
And most are evil look in their eyes
Too many people too many lives

151 thousand people die everyday
350k is born everyday - everyday
We had enough to go around as of yesterday
Tomorrow there will be no more for everyone

I have the key - my trigger and me
Pull out the weeds to save the flowers and the trees
I have the key - my trigger and me

Evil you see the numbers and the world has reached it's end - your mind
Dying now an over saturation keeps it live - alive

Too many people too many lives
And most are evil look in their eyes
Too many people too many lives
And most are evil look in their eyes

We had enough to go around as of yesterday
Tomorrow there will be no more for everyone

I have the key - my trigger and me
Pull out the weeds to save the flowers and the trees
I have the key - my trigger and me


9. GREY DRAGON

Told about a metal creature flying through the air
Breathing fire and searching for a mark
Read the map and heard the rumble never realized
Something so destructive could be right before my eyes
Stricken by its beauty I was simply mesmerized
Couldn't think to move or run my mind was paralyzed

Death from the skies - now I know that it's for real
And I can feel the fire
Death from the skies - dragon wings are overhead
And you're about to die

So close the wind is blowing a vortex from the wing
My ears were almost bleeding as the beast was about to sing
Felt the heat from the breath that it was blowing through the air
It didn't sense my wonder and didn't seem to care
Didn't have a plan for cover never had the need
Of what was about to happen trembling indeed
Terror and despair like I had never seen before
No plan to shield myself but frightened from the roar

Death from the skies - now I know that it's for real
And I can feel the fire
Death from the skies - dragon wings are overhead
And you're about to die

Armored scales that shield the beast from danger all around
Massive wings to keep the space and hover over ground
Razor spikes that slice the air on the whipping end of a tail
The screech of a warning a battle piercing wail

Death from the skies - now I know that it's for real
And I can feel the fire
Death from the skies - dragon wings are overhead
And you're about to die

Death from the skies - now I know that it's for real
And I can feel the fire
Death from the skies - dragon wings are overhead
And you're about to die


10. REAGGRESSION

You can see the blood in hand the violence of modern man
The echoing of kicking can the foiling of another plan
The writing that is on the wall says for a good time give a call
The teachers of your children small are not who they say not at all

I can't take this anymore
I can't open up the door

Moving forward giving thrust is not the only way for us
To win the battle with the rust collecting on my brain
And there's a shadow on my future where success should ever lie
And there are way too many forks to know hich path is really mine

I can't take this anymore
I can't end up on the floor - I can't I can't end up on the floor
I can't take this anymore
I can't open up the door - looks like I lost my key

It's a constant battle just to live and not to die
It's a dream to live without tomorrow in my mind
And I used to see my future standing over me at last
You can't open up tomorrow without closing down the past

Reaggression
Reaggression
Reaggression
Reaggression

Blackened eye a bloody lip never abused just a slip
The scars that tell a story are all talking once again
But I can see the knuckle bruises cross the center of your eye
There's a massive storm brewin' and yet safer than inside

I can't take this anymore
I can't end up on the floor - I can't I can't end up on the floor
I can't take this anymore
I can't open up the door - looks like I lost my key


11. UNDONE

They cast an evil web and trap the deepest thoughts of mind
They've got those arms of law in many ways they can wrap you up into a daze
They'll suck the life and history right out of your dark soul
Don't fall in to their deadly game your life will never be the same

Why did you tell me I'm the one that can't be left or undone
How can I carry on again - why did you leave me so undone
Why did you tell me I'm the one that can't be left or undone
How can I carry on again - why did you leave me so undone

They take your life they bleed your life so bad from digging in their fangs
They've got that money power draining your heart dry
And I can see the attraction when they venom fill your heart
You'll play the role of the victim as they're tearing you apart

Why did you tell me I'm the one that can't be left or undone
How can I carry on again - why did you leave me so undone
Why did you tell me I'm the one that can't be left or undone
How can I carry on again - why did you leave me so undone

Why did you tell me I'm the one that can't be left or undone
How can I carry on again - why did you leave me so undone
Why did you tell me I'm the one that can't be left or undone
How can I carry on again - why did you leave me so undone


12. SEVEN SECONDS ‘TIL THE END OF THE WORLD

The hour glass has lost its sand
Death stands tall and walks the land
Drinking blood of the Godless nations
A generation destined to end
We walk the edge for many years
A prophet's voice and a liar's tears
All falling on deafened ears
A generation destined to end

Faithless pray and all is gone
Final days the ending song

Can you feel the fires burning
Can you see the worm is turning
Seven seconds 'til the end of the world
Seven seconds 'til the end of the world
Can't you feel the fire raging
Can you hear the demons screaming
Seven seconds 'til the end of the world
Seven seconds 'til the end of the world

And now the calm before the storm
No where no time left to run
A fist slams on an iron sword
A generation destined to end
Blind lead the blind to a shallow grave
The sun is hiding blackened haze
A reckoning for all our ways
This generation destined to end

Faithless pray and all is gone
Final day the ending song

Can you feel the fires burning
Can you see the worm is turning
Seven seconds 'til the end of the world
Seven seconds 'til the end of the world
Can't you feel the fire raging
Can you hear the demons screaming
Seven seconds 'til the end of the world
Seven seconds 'til the end of the world

Can't you feel the fire burning
Can you hear the demons screaming

Can you feel the fires burning
Can you see the worm is turning
Seven seconds 'til the end of the world
Seven seconds 'til the end of the world
Can't you feel the fire raging
Can't you hear the demons screaming
Seven seconds 'til the end of the world
Seven seconds 'til the end of the world
