Lyrics

1. SHADOW INSIDE

Revived, recreated
Every single burn I still feel it
Contaminated but I don’t need the cure
No blood, no redemption
Every single lie I still hear them
Reaching for the sun, I won’t be ignored

I’ve been set ablaze
Now I can finally breathe

Caught in the flames, there's nowhere to hide
New light will break the shadows inside
Embrace the change and then you will find
New light will break the shadows inside
The shadows inside!

Blinded, devastated
Everything I was imitated
You used to know me but now you don’t anymore
My world, my reflection
Everything I am separated
All I desired was the spark to restore

I’ve been set ablaze, set ablaze
And I don’t want to change

Caught in the flames, there's nowhere to hide
New light will break the shadows inside
Embrace the change and then you will find
New light will break the shadows inside
(The shadows inside)

I burned away my past mistakes
The ashes fade and I remain

Caught in the flames, there's nowhere to hide
New light will break the shadows inside
Embrace the change and then you will find
New light will break the shadows inside

There's nowhere to hide
There's nowhere
Caught in the flames, there's nowhere to hide
New light will break the shadows inside


2. UNDER FIRE

Knocked down
Undressed humanity drowning in resistance
Lights out
Signs of the enemy hiding in the distance

There's no time, nowhere to run
But someone's got to lose
It's your life, your chance to run
Or your chance to prove

Under fire I won't turn away
Through it all I will stand
I will carry on
I will carry on

Under fire
Under fire

Reckless
No more apologies
No more contradictions
Fury
Sealed with this sanity
Pulling through conviction

There's no time, nowhere to run
But someone's got to lose
It's my life, my time to stand
It's my time to prove to you

Under fire I won't turn away
Through it all I will stand
I will carry on
I will carry on

Under fire
I will fight for this
Under fire
Won't give in
Under fire
I will fight for this
Under fire
No I won't give in

Under fire I won't turn away
Through it all I will stand
I will carry on
I will fight for this
I will carry on
I will carry on


3. NEVER LET ME STAY

Taking back control
Are you taking me away?
I don't wanna go
But you never let me stay
Taking back control
Are you taking me away?
I don't wanna go
But you never let me stay

Fall asleep in worry
Drowning in my head
About the earth and wild
Slowly I forget
I wanna come back home
But I'm afraid that I stepped out alone
Should I be ashamed?
Maybe I'm to blame

Taking back control
Are you taking me away?
I don't wanna go
But you never let me stay (Never let me stay)
Taking back control
Are you taking me away? (Are you taking me?)
I don't wanna go
But you never let me stay (Never let me stay)

Barricades have crumbled
The effect with the dust
Safe and sound no longer
Nothing left to trust
I know I shut myself out
I know I'm in my way
Prisoner to my doubts
Can I be saved?

Taking back control
Are you taking me away? (Are you taking me?)
I don't wanna go
But you never let me stay (Never let me stay)
Taking back control
Are you taking me away? (Are you taking me?)
I don't wanna go
But you never let me stay (Never let me stay)

But I will, I will
But I will, I will

I know I shut myself out
I know I'm in my way
Prisoner to my doubts
Can I be saved?

Taking back control
You've been taking all control again

Taking back control
Are you taking me away? (Are you taking me?)
I don't wanna go
But you never let me stay (Never let me stay)
Taking back control
Are you taking me away? (Are you taking me?)
I don't wanna go
But you never let me stay (Never let me stay)


4. MY DESTRUCTION

Say what you want, I've never sinned
Breathing in the world that you wish you could breathe
And I will wake, and I can say
There is another, a better part of me

Cut all you want, I'll never bleed
You'll never be my destruction
Crush every bone, they'll never break
You'll never be my destruction

I may be scared walking in fear
Feels like I'm calling out but nobody can hear
I've got a voice, a beating heart
I've got to live it and climb out of the dark

Cut all you want, I'll never bleed
You'll never be my destruction
Crush every bone, they'll never break
You'll never be my destruction

My destruction
My destruction, yeah
You'll never be my destruction


5. CASUALTIES

Lost our world is changing
Now torn apart
Lies no ones admitting
We are who we are

I will never reconnect
This will never be perfect
Like it was before

All I loved has spoiled
All I had decayed
When it all falls apart
Every moments the same

In darkness we buried each other
Divided refusing to break
The bombs fell but no one surrendered
In this war we’re all casualties

Lost our world is changing
Now torn apart
Lies no ones admitting
We are who we are

All I loved has spoiled
All I had decayed
When it all falls apart
Every moments the same

In darkness we buried each other
Dividing refusing to break
The bombs fell but no one surrendered
In this war we’re all casualties (In darkness)

Lost our world is changing
Now torn apart
Lies no ones admitting
We are who we are


6. CRAWL

Did I erase my senses
Did I erase who I've become
I'm so ashamed and I hate it
It's obvious I've come undone
It's getting harder to fake it
I'm just a shell of what I know
I know you're scared and I hate it
Still you'd never let go
Over and over again she says

Don't crawl away
You're not alone, not alone
Don't crawl away from me
You swore you'd never let me go, let me go
So don't crawl away from me

I feel the same when I'm with you
I feel the same when I'm on the floor
I'm just a pattern repeated
A part of me closes every door
You bear the pain of holding on every single day
I may be down but I still hear you say

Don't crawl away
You're not alone, not alone
Don't crawl away from me
You swore you'd never let me go, let me go
So don't crawl away from me

I'm losing all touch in my mind and myself
Will I find another you to save me?
I'm losing all touch in my mind and myself
Will I find another you to save me?
Yeah!
You can't save me
All that's left then where I am
You are the rest of this broken man

Don't crawl away
You're not alone, not alone
Don't crawl away from me (There's so much left to say)
You swore you'd never let me go, let me go
So don't crawl away from me
Don't crawl away from me


7. SWALLOW YOUR TEETH

Every single night I wonder is this how it's supposed to be
You struggle every day when you take attack for me
You're not a god, I'm not your slave
You can try but I will not obey
I will not obey
You're not a god, I'm not your slave
And you can try but there's no controlling me

I've had enough, the shit you preach
You talk too much, swallow your teeth
Yeah

Every single night I wonder is this how it's supposed to be
The rich are getting richer, the poor are meant to bleed
Is there a choice? Is there a way?
I won't be your prey
I won't be your prey
Is there a choice? Is there a way?
We're making one today

I've had enough, the shit you preach
You talk too much, swallow your teeth

(Swallow your teeth, swallow your teeth)

With so much hate, you drown in shame
The angels cry but you won't change
You built your world on fear and pain
The snakes will surely sing your name

Oh, depravity
We have all been following
Slight of every hand
Tricked again, you motherfucker
You motherfucker!
We won't be your prey

I've had enough, the shit you preach
You talk too much, swallow your teeth

With so much hate, you drown in shame
The angels cry but you won't change
You built your world on fear and pain
The snakes will surely sing your name


8. DEATH KNOWS MY NAME

I find it hard to see that I'm still here alive (that I'm still here alive)
A bitter taste of lessons you know I'll bite
Don't wanna go alone but no one's here tonight
Still I can't believe I'm on the other side

This won't be the end
Out of the dark, out of the dark
Death calls me her friend
She sings my name
This won't be the end
Out of the dark, out of the dark
Death calls me her friend

She follows close behind
We're standing hand-in-hand
Breathing down my spine
Thirsting for all I am
Slipping from her side I finally catch her eye
I look in my demise
It's all been in my mind

This won't be the end
Out of the dark, out of the dark
Death calls me her friend
She sings my name
This won't be the end
Out of the dark, out of the dark
Death calls me her friend
She sings my name

This won't be the end
Out of the dark, out of the dark
Death calls me her friend
She screams my name
This won't be the end
Out of the dark, out of the dark
Death calls me her friend
She screams my name


9. LOST IN THE GREY

We are greater than this
We are stronger than before
There's no locking us in
We’re not hopeless anymore

Everyone feels safe, safe on the inside
Holding on but never really alive
Everyone feels safe, safe in the outline
Holding on to the cage in your mind

I’ve found a way to pull you from the life you hate
To somewhere real so you don’t find your self lost in the grey
We are greater than this
We are stronger than before
There's no locking us in
We’re not hopeless anymore

Don’t tell me that you’re, you’re the same
There's nothing, no mold that I can’t break
Don’t tell me that you’re full of shame
There's nothing, you’re a rat that wants to bleed
I'm just a rat that wants to bleed

I’ve found a way to pull you from the life you hate
To somewhere real so you don’t find your self lost in the grey
We are greater than this
We are stronger than before
There's no locking us in
We’re not hopeless anymore

We're hopeless not helpless
There's more to life than what's in site
We're hopeless not helpless
We're hopeless not helpless
(Not helpless)

I’ve found a way
I’ve found a way
We are greater than this
We are stronger than before
There's no locking us in
We’re not hopeless anymore


10. MY SORROW

Here I am
Side by side with the pressure that stalks me
I walk through hell with this backbreaking heartache
Bleeding out all these close complications
Always the prey for your frustration

I suffocate can barely breathe
I just can't walk away
I just can't walk away
A world of pain surrounding me
But I won't walk away
No I won't walk away

Buried deep no one can reach my sorrow, my sorrow
Baring all the blame no one can take my sorrow, my sorrow
My sorrow

Will I outlast the struggle of patience?
A ticking time bomb defusing with hatred
No recovery. No rejuvenation
I'm at a dead end but I can take it

I suffocate can barely breathe
I just can't walk away
A world of pain surrounding me
But I won't walk away
No I won't walk away

Buried deep no one can reach my sorrow, my sorrow
Baring all the blame no one can take my sorrow, my sorrow
My sorrow

Buried deep no one can reach my sorrow, my sorrow
Baring all the blame no one can take my sorrow, my sorrow
My sorrow
