From Ashes To New : Day One

Teksty


1. LAND OF MAKE BELIEVE

You stand there all alone and try to think of what I said
But this unfamiliar tone just keeps on ringing in your head
Everything you've known is what I'm bringing to an end
The situation that you're in is your creation and it's dead
It's what it is
Enough of this
The shit you talk is nothing kid
You're bringing what I love in this
And that is why it's come to this
I'm jumping in
Confronting it
And plan to stop for none of this
Now you'll see how much fun it is
When I leave you buried under it

You think you're special, you think I have to follow you
Just quit your guessing, I'm not the person you assume
You think you're special, think I have to follow you
Now what you gonna do, when I come to split your world in two

You've underestimated me
I'll be the one to haunt you in your dreams
And when the ashes rest you'll see
I've torn you from your land of make believe

I wish you had the courage and the heart to use your brain
Cause you're wicked on the surface, and you're partially insane
You're thinking serves no purpose and it's harmfully in vane
Your slippers ain't working and your home's too far away
Now you're stuck
You're outta luck
You stand there thinking how the fuck
It's clouding up
Surrounding us
Your house is spinning round above
Now the flood
Of sounds enough
To show your throat you found your gut
And how you've spun
Around the gun
Show's me the one the coward was

You think you're special, you think I have to follow you
Just quit your guessing, I'm not the person you assume
You think you're special, think I have to follow you
Now what you gonna do, when I come to split your world in two

You've underestimated me
I'll be the one to haunt you in your dreams
And when the ashes rest you'll see
I've torn you from your land of make believe

Don't fall asleep, cause you can't run from me
Don't fall asleep, cause you can't run from me
I'm coming for you, I'm coming for you
Don't fall asleep, no it's not make believe
I'm coming for you, yea I'm coming for you

You think you're special, think I have to follow you
Now what you gonna do, when I come to split your world in two

You've underestimated me
I'll be the one to haunt you in your dreams
And when the ashes rest you'll see
I've torn you from your land of make believe

Don't fall asleep, cause you can't run from me
I'm coming for you, yea I'm coming for you


2. FARTHER FROM HOME

I lay awake and look at the ceiling and wonder why
I'm so afraid to face all these feelings and want to die
I'm out of place and nothing's appealing to stay alive
Why try to face it when it's so easy to say goodbye

It's all unfolding, it's so controlling
It tries to pull me under, nothing's going right for me
This tension's growing, it tries to hold me
Hear me scream

I'm taking over
With my back to the ropes, I'm never letting go
I'm moving closer
Everything that I know is feeling farther from home
I'm never giving in,
This world I'm living in is losing color
I'm taking over
With my back to the ropes, I'm never letting go

I try to make the changes, it's so hard to sway my mind
There is no way to make it but to leave these scars behind
Within my thoughts are racing, I'm too far away at times
I drive myself insane, it's tearing me apart inside

It's all unfolding, it's so controlling
It tries to pull me under, nothing's going right for me
This tension's growing, it tries to hold me
Hear me scream

I'm taking over
With my back to the ropes, I'm never letting go
I'm moving closer
Everything that I know is feeling farther from home
I'm never giving in,
This world I'm living in is losing color
I'm taking over
With my back to the ropes, I'm never letting go

I take a deep breath down inside
I shake and try to breathe but I
Hate the way that I lived my life
And it seems
All the lies that I try to hide
Remind me of what I left behind
Unwinding thoughts inside my mind
Hear me scream
I'M SCREAMING OUT LOUD

It's all just weighing on me
It's all just weighing on me
I'm reaching out
I'm screaming out loud


3. LOST AND ALONE

Oh how the skies have fallen down upon me
I'm trapped in this wake of nothing
What once was beautiful is now a disease
I can't believe this once was something

Burning down around me can't make it through the debris
I can't make it, no
I try my hardest to see can't find my way on these streets
I can't make it home

Lost and alone in this world with no hope
Trying not to let go but there's nothing to hold

Everyday it seems that we're evolving
Into a world that's not there for you
And everything we were is now dissolving
Into this apathetic life that we choose

Nowhere to go nothing to hold
Everything around me starts to crumble
Nowhere to go nothing to hold
Someone save me

Save me this nothing is drowning me again
Nothing can save me it's drowning me again
I'm pleading for an end but this nightmare just began


4. SHADOWS

Some people will never change
Running your mouth all the same
You and your shadow just blasting my name
I hear the words that you say
I see the games that you play
You and your shadow just blasting my name

Is it hard to take a breath with my name in your mouth
Is it hard to digest that I made it out
You hate me now, you betrayed me now
And you blame me now, cuz you're breaking down
Who would you impress if you take me out?
There's nothing, no one left, it's a daydream now
You're spacing out, no awaking now
No erasing how you played me down

Some people will never change
Running your mouth all the same
You and your shadow just blasting my name
I hear the words that you say
I see the games that you play
You and your shadow just blasting my name
You and your shadow just blasting my name

I thought by now you would've learned to be discreet
You sing my name, like a bird every time you tweet
I top your feed, but it's not for me
You keep dropping me, like my stock decreased
You should probably be concerned that you dot your T's
Everything's backwards like you stopped on green
Like a clot you bleed, like a thought you see
Like we fought the free, like you're stopping me

Some people will never change
Running your mouth all the same
You and your shadow just blasting my name
I hear the words that you say
I see the games that you play
You and your shadow just blasting my name
You and your shadow just blasting my name

You'll see your shadow
You'll see your shadow
You should've known, you'd be there all alone
You'll see your shadow
You're on your own (where'd everybody go), wait for tomorrow
You'll see your shadow
You should've known (you'd be there all alone), wait for tomorrow
(You'll see your shadow)

Some people will never change
Running your mouth all the same
You and your shadow just blasting my name
I hear the words that you say
I see the games that you play
You and your shadow just blasting my name
You and your shadow just blasting my name
Blasting my name


5. THROUGH IT ALL

There's not a day that passes by
The pain has not amassed inside
It's breaking me down to the ground
It's like I crashed and died
It's hard to leave your past behind
Especially when you're last in line
And half the time it acts like vines
And wraps inside my fragile mind
Hiding in plain view it seems
The same old shit I choose between
Taking who I used to be
And keep it subdued beneath
Close to dead and losing me
You took a chance and you believed
So did I, I let you lead
And grabbed the line you threw to me

And through it all...
You saved me, you made me
And through it all you changed me forever
You love me, you hate me
And through it all you changed me forever

You've given me a chance to change
Helped me in ways I can't explain
I'll never understand the way
You took my hand with no dismay
Now I'm who I am today
And that's the man I plan to stay
But can't escape, I can't evade
You stranded me and ran away
Why'd you do it why'd you leave
Why'd you help me find my feet
Why'd you guide me blindingly
Then turn and say goodbye to me
All this time I tried to be
The person you applied to me
This lie you feed that I'd succeed
Is why I'm me, a dying breed

You saved me, you made me
And through it all you changed me forever
You love me, you hate me
And through it all you changed me forever

Through it all you changed me
I'm not the same me
For better or for worse this person that you made me
Through it all you changed me
I'm not the same me
For better or for worse you changed me forever

It's killing me down deep within
It makes me strain to breath again
All this pain I keep it in
If it's the end where'd we begin
It's so hard to comprehend
Where we are is where we end
Let's make believe let's just pretend
You don't hate me and want me dead
What you said stays in my head
An unrelenting discontent
It torments me to no extent
Entrenches me just like cement
It makes no sense what your intent
Bled for me then fled instead
You never meant to be content
Fuck the words let's just be friends

You saved me, you made me
And through it all you changed me forever
You love me, you hate me
And through it all you changed me forever

Through it all you changed me
I'm not the same me
For better or for worse this person that you made me
Through it all you changed me
I'm not the same me
For better or for worse you changed me forever

Whoa...

Through it all you changed me
I'm not the same me
For better or for worse this person that you made me
Through it all you changed me
I'm not the same me
For better or for worse you changed me forever


6. FACE THE DAY

Break away
Rip the flesh from the bone
And bury me

I wake up every morning
It's hard to look at me
I chose this life I wasn't born in
And all the lies I'm caught between
Feeling empty, broke inside it's never ending
Can't escape everyday's the same routine
I gotta try no matter how unrelenting
I gotta fall to find my feet

I will face the day

I'll break away
from this dying part of me
I'll breathe new life
into what was dark and grey
And I hope I can make it
Through another day
And I hope I can make it
Going on this way

I can't keep going on this way
Feels like I'm stuck in time
I can't keep living life afraid
While each chance is passing by
I sit and wait but still I hesitate
Comatose with a distant look in my eye
Standing with one foot in the grave
Not sure which half's alive

I will face the day

I'll break away
from this dying part of me
I'll breathe new life
into what was dark and grey
And I hope I can make it
Through another day
And I hope I can make it
Going on this way

I can't go on this way

I'll break away
from this dying part of me
I'll breathe new life
into what was dark and grey
And I hope I can make it
Through another day
And I hope I can make it
Going on this way


7. DOWNFALL

I'm broken and beaten down
I feel so defeated now
It's me against the world
I feel like I'm the one who's bleeding out

My minds so depleted now
Should I just be leaving now?
Can I restart it all?
Control Alt Delete it now

I'm tired of yesterday
Let's see what tomorrow brings
I'm trying my best to say
These words I keep swallowing

Demons keep following me
Screaming they're calling for me
No more free falling for me
I'll steal the time I'm borrowing

Dreams are dreamt broken
Worlds shattered and choking
And I'm stuck here hoping
There's something for me

We all fall down sometimes
And it makes it hard to believe
We can learn to somehow survive
No matter how much we bleed

We can make it (and now we know)
We can make it (so don't let go)
(Don't let go)

Every time I wake up
It's hard to believe I opened up my eyes
I try to stay up
But I keep on falling and I don't know why
Everything's fucked
And I can't keep living wearing this disguise
Can I change my luck or am I stuck in time until I die?

Dreams are dreamt broken
Worlds shattered and choking
And I'm stuck here hoping
There's something for me

We all fall down sometimes
And it makes it hard to believe
We can learn to somehow survive
No matter how much we bleed

We can make it (and now we know)
We can make it (so don't let go)

After it all
We are the ones who suffer the downfall
After it all (after it all)
We are the ones who suffer the downfall
After it all (After it all)
We are the ones who suffer

We all fall down sometimes
And it makes it hard to believe
We can learn to somehow survive
No matter how much we bleed

We can make it (and now we know)
We can make it (so don't let go)
(Don't let go)


8. BREAKING NOW

I just don't care, don't care anymore

I just don't care anymore and I can't pretend
I haven't been here before and haven't seen the end
I sometimes hope for a cure I'm just lost within
I just don't care anymore, why can't I win

I open my eyes and these lies
they breed and they feed off of me
I try to revive a design
but can't see a need to agree
I'd hide in my mind and rewind
the scene or I'd flee underneath
But time after time I still find
I bleed more for me to succeed

It's hard to care care care if I'm breaking now
Every single thing I swear tries to take me down
It's hard to care care care if I make it out
Every single thought of despair tries to take me down

I'm keeping myself alive to just live like this
And force myself to decide what's my life's purpose
I'm stuck in back of the line and behind the mix
Still trying to find what is mine find where I fit

I open my eyes and these lies
they breed and they feed off of me
I try to revive a design
but can't see a need to agree
I'd hide in my mind and rewind
the scene or I'd flee underneath
But time after time I still find
I bleed more for me to succeed

It's hard to care care care if I'm breaking now
Every single thing I swear tries to take me down
It's hard to care care care if I make it out
Every single thought of despair tries to take me down

All the time it's trying to break me
Every lie is trying to take me
Now I find I'm dying to save me
But down inside I care a little less lately

All the time it's trying to break me
Every lie is trying to take me
Now I find I'm dying to save me
But down inside I care a little less lately

All the time it's trying to break me
Every lie is trying to take me
Now I find I'm dying to save me
But down inside I care a little less lately

All the time it's trying to break me
Every lie is trying to take me
Now I find I'm dying to save me
But down inside I care a little less lately

It's hard to care care care if I'm breaking now
Every single thing I swear tries to take me down
It's hard to care care care if I make it out
Every single thought of despair tries to take me down

All the time it's trying to break me
Every lie is trying to take me
Now I find I'm dying to save me
But down inside I care a little less lately

All the time it's trying to break me
Every lie is trying to take me
Now I find I'm dying to save me
But down inside I care a little less lately


9. EVERY SECOND

I’m broken, I’m hoping
For a reason to keep on going
Doors open and closing
Everything seems like slow motion
I’ve chosen this moment
To stop my self-erosion
I’m focused on owning
Myself, my own opponent

But in this moment that is falling apart
I keep thinking
Is the path I chose where I should start?
I keep sinking

I’m dying every second I’m alive
Every second I’m alive
I’m trying to feed the fire that inside me
The fire that’s inside
I’m dying every second I’m alive
This life’s reflection in my eye
It reminds me the scars made me stronger

I won’t go quietly
Won’t let the past unwind me
I don’t know whom I see
Worth trying to put behind me

But in this moment that is falling apart
I keep thinking
Is the path I chose where I should start?
I keep sinking

I’m dying every second I’m alive
Every second I’m alive
I’m trying to feed the fire that inside me
The fire that’s inside
I’m dying every second I’m alive
This life’s reflection in my eye
It reminds me the scars made me stronger

Every second I’m alive
I’m getting closer to my grave
I try my best to just survive
Feels like I’m broken every day
I’m hoping that I’ll make it
I’m hoping but I’m flakey
I’m cold inside this basement
Time to try and fight the shaky
I’m shaking and I’m waiting
Still debating on which way to go
Swaying and I’m fading
No escaping, still afraid to know
Inside my thoughts are erasing
So I’m bracing for a weighted stone
The world is so much colder
So I may just have to change alone

I’m dying every second I’m alive
Every second I’m alive
I’m trying to feed the fire that inside me
The fire that’s inside
I’m dying every second I’m alive
This life’s reflection in my eye
It reminds me the scars made me stronger


10. SAME OLD STORY

It’s stuck on repeat
Making me breathe
Ever so deeply inside
Am I sleeping
I’ve tried screaming
Nothing can keep me alive
It seems easy
Make believing
Leaving these feelings behind
It’s deceiving
Guaranteeing
Nothing is seemingly right

Can’t look away
Can’t bare to watch but want to see
I can’t escape
This flood that I jumped in
Without a trace
I vanish from the air I breathe
Last gasp I take
I thought nothing was something

The best thing to ever happen to me
Has now become the worst thing
It’s still the same old story, it’s still the same old story

It still replays
All of these days
All of these ways
That it died
Paths that we made
Left to decay
All from betrayal and pride
Feels like D-Day
When we stay
Like cars on freeways that collide
Let’s be safe
And not retrace
Mistakes that we made throughout time

If I make it out alive
I’ll make it my last goodbye

Still the same old same old
Still the same old story


11. YOU ONLY DIE ONCE

What would you live for, what would you lie for?
What would you kill for, what would you die for?

Name something in life you might think twice to die for
No matter if it's right you take a knife and say goodbye for
Out the lights and say goodnight like nothing's left to try for
Out of mind and out of sight decide to close your eyes for

Can you be so sure it's worth it? Nothing anymore is perfect
What's it for if you're uncertain? Doors don't open, closing curtains
Nothing more, no returning, no respawn, no reinsertion
No 2.0, no new version, only you; your only person

What would you live for, what would you lie for?
(Better hope you find it was everything inside you love)
What would you kill for what would you die for
(Better make your mind up 'cause you only die once)

It rips apart your heart, it's hard to keep it underneath
Losing sight of who you are, discarding life it seems
Push yourself so far it starts to alter what it means
You live to breathe, you kill for dreams, you die for something no one sees

What's it take to make you kill and go insane against your will
Makes you change the way you feel for what is fake and what's for real
You've been placed in this ordeal to sit and wait or take the wheel
The choice you make won't fade until you soak up all the blood you spilled

What would you live for, what would you lie for?
(Better hope you find it was everything inside you love)
What would you kill for what would you die for
(Better make your mind up 'cause you only die once)

What if it kills you, what if you die?
What if you don't make it out alive?
What if it kills you, what if you die?
What if you don't make it out alive?

You only die once
You only die once
You only die once
You only die once

(You only die once) What would you live for, what would you lie for?
(You only die once) What would you kill for what would you die for
(You only die once) What would you live for, what would you lie for?
(Better hope you find it was everything inside you love)
(You only die once) What would you kill for what would you die for
(Better make your mind up 'cause you only die once)

You only die once
You only die once


BONUS TRACKS


12. THE LAST TIME (FT. DEUCE)

You never thought I'd follow through
So here's a song for all of you
Reaction for attacking me and acting like I'm small to you
This is what you call the truth
It chews you up and swallows you
A fraction of the wrath in me unraveling for all to view
I'm glad you always hated me
Cuz that's what made me chase the dream
And now I'm here, so close, so near, and you're so far away to me
This is what you made me be
You'll always be the same to me
So full of fear, afraid to hear, me spit the truth so blatantly

You brought me down for the last time
It's the last time I shut my mouth
I'm screaming out from the inside
For the first time
It's the last time you bring me down

It's funny that you think we're friends
It's maybe time to think again
The shit you said, you wished me dead, instead of trying to make amends
Now it's finally sinking in
That I'm the one who's finishing
So don't pretend to take offense, you earned it every single cent
Almost thought that you were right
I almost thought I'd lose the fight
And came undone, you almost won, you almost conquered me with spite
You never saw it through the light
It blinded you it skewed your sight
The shit you talked, and what you thought, and now it fucking ends tonight

You brought me down for the last time
It's the last time I shut my mouth
I'm screaming out from the inside
For the first time
It's the last time you bring me down

[Deuce:]
Quiet as a mouse was always shutting my mouth
Quiet in the beginning till I figured it out
Look at me now straight spitting without
All these fake ass mother fuckers holding me down
You thought I had a nervous breakdown and was playing around
Your whole shit went underground soon as I popped the fuck out
Soon as I stepped on the scene and started knocking 'em out
Stomping'em out just for trying to block my ass out
What the fuck you talking about rocking a crowd
This is rock not pop look who's popular now
Bitch please stop talking me down
The only thing that you were ever good at was mocking me
How I couldn't see how you were stopping me
You brought me down

You brought me down for the last time
It's the last time I shut my mouth
I'm screaming out from the inside
For the first time
It's the last time you bring me down


13. AN OCEAN OF ITS OWN

Now the tide is rising
And I'm staring at the wake
I get this feeling inside and
I think that it might be too late
There's nothing left to confide in
The only thing concrete is this weight
So I'm stuck here deciding
How much more before I break

I can't get out
No one's around
To see me struggle for life
I'll stand alone and drown
Will I be found
Or just forgot about
Yea yea, you always pull me down
And now

My heart is sinking like a stone
In an ocean of it's own
You said I'd never be alone
I guess I should've known

I guess I should've known
I'd be here alone
On the bottom alive stuck in the undertow
I hold my throat
As the water chokes
The silhouette of the sky I stare at from below

Feeling there's a lot that I just gotta say
Thought I had a shot but you're caught in your ways
It always was your plot, planned to cross me like a knot
Rip my heart from it's spot and toss it away
Feeling like a rock when I dropped in the waves
Keeping all my thoughts in a box hid away
Floating on the top while a drop to the bottom
With the chains me around locked to the block made of fate

My heart is sinking like a stone
In an ocean of it's own
You said I'd never be alone
I guess I should've known

Sinking like a stone
In an ocean of it's own

I thought you understood
I thought you were here for good
I never thought you'd leave me here in a pool of my own blood
[x2]

I thought that you'd understand
You left me standing here reaching out my hand
I thought that you'd understand
I thought you'd understand (I thought you'd understand)

I'm still standing here reaching out my hand
I thought you'd understand (I thought you'd understand)

My heart is sinking like a stone
In an ocean of it's own
You said I'd never be alone
I guess I should've known

Sinking like a stone
In an ocean of it's own


14. WHO'S LAUGHING NOW

Look at me now, laughing now, you had me down
Look at me now, laughing now, happy now

I remember it all when you used to laugh loud
Back to the wall I was afraid to act out
Feeling so small I was scared and trapped, now
I'm standing up tall and don't plan to back down
Every breath I breathed I had to breath deep
And every dream I've dreamed was promising me
I'd be nothing but empty on the verge of defeat
So stop pretending you believed in these dreams

Look at me now, laughing now, you had me down
But it's my turn now
Look at me now, laughing now, happy now
That it's turned around

I can still see the faces like it's today
They're what it took to make this life, it's too late
To take back all the hatred and fights that you've made
Nothing can erase this despite what you say
Put a smile on my face the taste of what you gave
Made me hate your way of life so I knew I'd never change
Never sway from my direction kept my mind inside the game
No more stressing just confessing I'm laughing now you're in your place

Look at me now, laughing now, you had me down
But it's my turn now
Look at me now, laughing now, happy now
That it's turned around

Now that it's over (it's over, it's over)
I think it's time that you get a taste
And now that it's over (and now it's finally over)
I'm sitting here with a smile on my face

(Laughing!)
It's funny how it is I thought I never had a chance
(I'm laughing!)
You put your money on this shit and now I made you fold your hand
(Laughing!)
It's funny how it is I thought I never had a chance
(I'm laughing!)
You put your money on this shit and now I made you fold your hand
So look who's laughing now, a smile's worth a hundred grand

Look at me now, laughing now, you had me down
But it's my turn now
Look at me now, laughing now, happy now
That it's turned around

(Laughing!)
Now that it's over (it's over, it's over)
(I'm laughing!)
Look at me now! It's my turn now!
(Laughing!)
Now that it's over (And now it's finally over)
(I'm laughing!)
I'm laughing now! That it's turned around


15. LOST AND ALONE (ACOUSTIC)

Oh how the skies have fallen down upon me?
I'm trapped inside this wake of nothing
What once was beautiful is now a disease
I can't believe this once was something
Burning down around me!
Can't make it through the debris!
I can't make it, no!
I try my hardest to see!
Can't find my way on these streets!
I can't make it home!

Lost and alone in this world with no hope!
Trying not to let go when there's nothing, nothing to hold!

Everyday it seems we're evolving
Into a world that's not there for you
And everything we were is now dissolving
Into this apathetic life that we choose
Burning down around me!
Can't make it through the debris!
I can't make it, no!
I try my hardest to see!
Can't find my way on the streets!
I can't make it!

Lost and alone in this world with no hope!
Trying not to let go when there's nothing, nothing to hold!

Nowhere to go, nothing to hold!
Everything around me starts to crumble!
Nowhere to go, nothing to hold!
Someone save me!
Someone save me
The path I'm taking has me breaking
The world around me
My surroundings keep me down here fading
I watch it changing
It seems crazy, it's the road we're taking
There's no escaping
From this waking nightmare we're creating

Lost and alone in this world with no hope!
Trying not to let go when there's nothing, nothing!
Lost and alone in this world with no hope!
Trying not to let go when there's nothing to hold!

Someone save me
The path I'm taking has me breaking
The world around me
My surroundings keep me down here fading
I watch it changing
It seems crazy, it's the road we're taking
There's no escaping
From this waking nightmare we're creating
