1. NEVER SEE

Never knowing solace
Never knowing peace
An aimless journey, sure to end in defeat.
I fan the flames
They continue to grow
Remorse, I'll never show


2. THE SCAPEGOAT

I stand feeling sorrow
I stand feeling the pain
There's no prison more frightening
Than the one inside my brain
The sun has gone down
The darkness arrives
Still searching for that part of me I'm doomed not to find
And I lie to myself, say it's part of life's plan
These misfortunes have made me, who and what I am

Nobody.
But myself.
To blame.

There's no one out there that can save me
If you need someone to blame, just blame me.


3. SLOW BURN

Thoughts weigh heavy
So heavy on my mind
My senses suffocated, how could I have been so blind?
With my hands on my head
I wish I were dead
And a head full of dread for all I've ever said
Does it kill you to know all the secrets I'll never show?
I've been down, but never this low.
What will become of me when these demons start to show?
Through those tired eyes do you see a broken man?

Can you empathize this pain, I know you feel it too.
Cause at the end of the day nothing else holds true
So, I'll slip like a stone across the sea, to the nightmares I've lived, and the nightmares I'll see.
I'm left behind to wallow, my faith and cruelty combine
My chain of suffering. Just leave me behind.
In shadows I'll circle, in shadows I'll blend.
No lifeless echo, but a lifeless end.

The hands that kill form an illusion of peace.
But I won't be fooled by your pseudo security
I'll press my finger to the sand
And I'm drawing the line

I can escape my need for wrath
Come trial by fire, let it come...
You can't escape the scorching sun
The end has only just begun

See what they've done to me?
With my mercy at stake I fell to my knees.
Now cruelty my master, I do as I please.
Take what I want, I do what I need.

Its me and me alone.


4. NOTHING BUT A NIGHTMARE

5. SUCCUMB

I can't repair the damage done
Seen all there is to see, under the dying sun
While others conquer life, I'll run
To my weakness I've succumb
Caught in a web that can't be undone

Believe me I've tried to be, what they want me to be
I can't, I won't. I want to be free
It's getting harder to deal, could this be real?
I tried to come to terms with what I really feel.

I can't repair the damage done,
Seen all there is to see under the dying sun
While others conquer life, I'll run
To my weakness I've succumb
Fuck it, whats done is done.

I wish my only saving grace, wasn't 'it can always be worse'
Someone's got to make it, you see.
So, why can't it be me?
We all dream together at night, but yet, we're still alone
There's no healing hand of time
In this void we wither and die

Seems like there's no way out, of my own private hell
There's no one led to fight
Forever destined to dwell
And I can't fucking see why it's happened to me
I got what I deserved, and that I know for sure.

What's done is done, Nowhere to run
Too blind to see, In disbelief

There's nothing left, under the sun
I'm fucking done
Await my storm of scorn
