1. VOICE OF THE VOICELESS

With my back against the wall, i knew i’d find you here.
All these contradictions have led us nowhere.
We all have our problems, we all have our own faults.
Show me a sign and you will be saved from this hell on earth.
Give me a sign they will be saved.
Deal with your own faults first.
Giving into sin has never been so easy,
When the devil on my shoulder tells me there’s no hope.
Face to face with life i stand,
Fighting for the upper hand.
Yeah i’m fighting for the upper hand.
I’ve walked through your hell and i didn’t get burned.
Another day with you, that is a lesson learned.
We are the silent ones that live without voices,
The voice of the voiceless.
Could you look back on your life without regret?
Without the doubt?
Without your voice.
We are preachers of the same faith,
What makes us different
Makes us the same.


2. HOLLOW DISPOSITION

What you hide underneath, just under the surface.
Leaves me empty inside, with nowhere left to go.
We’re all afraid to die alone.
We all fear the unknown.
What leads us into the light is just us letting go.
Fall back and let the dead embrace you.
I know why you can’t sleep at night.
I can’t change the way you think,
The things you hate
Or your broken faith.
A soul among us is all you’ll ever be.
Another set of bones, a ship that’s lost at sea.
When will you learn there’s no such thing as home without someone to love?
He’s not coming back, he’s not coming for you.
Your savior is never coming back.
What you’ve become has made him disappear.
So many eyes are watching me.
I can feel my skin burning.
Where is your savior now?
Your savior is never coming back.


3. GIVING UP MY PRIDE

This strain you put on us is eating me alive.
I’m so tired of never knowing if there’s any truth behind These lies.
It takes one to know one.
I’ve been here before.
I know what’s in store.
You’re just another reason why I’m fighting this war.
For everything that I believe in.
Fighting this war.
For everything that I believe in.
I’m leaving my past behind because to grow is to give into your pride.
And everything I’ve found along the way,
Has only taught me one thing.
And everything i’ve lost and loved that’s changed,
Has only made me better.
I was blinded; barely breathing.
You tried to shut me out,
But I could still see.
How distant you’ve become.
So far gone from the rest of us.
I’m leaving my past behind,
Because to grow is to give into your pride.
I’m leaving my past behind,
Because I’m giving up my pride.


4. A CHANCE TO CHANGE MY WAYS

The broken glass cracking underneath my feet is all that’s Left of what we used to be.
You tore apart my head and left me wishing I was dead.
I should have never let you in.
And I can hear the doubt that echoes in your voice,
I know I have no choice.
Where were you when I was losing hope in everything?
Where were you when all I needed was a chance to change my Ways?
I knew from the start I’d end up alone,
But still I tried to make you stay.
There will always be a part of you that I could never reach.
I need a way out.
The air is getting heavy and the thought of you is driving Me insane.
And I can’t sleep tonight
'Cause every time I close my eyes I see it differently.
Where were you?
When I was losing hope in everything.
Where were you?
All I needed was a chance to change my ways…


5. LIMB FROM LIMB

I stand where they decide,
From what is wrong and what is right.
Don’t let this love escape you,
They say it never lasts.
Take a deep breath.
It’s only a matter of time before we’ve reached the bottom.
I’ve spent too long,
Trying to read between the lines.
I’ve spent too long,
Wasting my time for something that was never really mine.
I give and give,
But all you do is take.
I’ve spent too long,
Wasting my time for something that was never really mine.
I’ve wasted too much time on so many people who never gave a Shit about me.
The monster you created will tear us all apart.
Limb from limb,
Flesh from bone.
There will be nothing left of them.
Nothing left of them
Keep believing people never change.
Steady breathing, I’m better off alone.
I’m better off alone.
I can save myself,
But I can’t say the same for you.
You’ll never shed your old skin.
You’ll always just be the same.
You all deserted me,
Now you know I’ll never forget.


6. HOMEWRECKER

Fuck your closure,
I’ve wished you dead for this.
Fuck forgiveness,
I’ll hold this grudge like nobody’s business.
I’ll hold this grudge until the day I fucking die.
Whore yourself out,
So much for self-esteem,
So much for your self-esteem,
I hope you fucking choke on all the pride you swallow.
Your innocence in exchange for my sanity.
Looks of disgust will follow you straight to hell
Fuck your closure.
Fuck your forgiveness.
This is all my fault,
For ever trusting you.
My fault,
For ever letting you in.
My fault.
You’re just another fucking slut,
Looking for another dick to suck.


7. UNDERNEATH MY SKIN

Promise nothing no one but yourself,
'cause I've been dying just to live a little longer.
And I can’t sleep,
I want something of my own.
I’ll let the shore wash me out with the morning light.
When I broke away I found myself so out of reach.
Lonely eyes staring right back at me.
Promise me I’m better off, promise me I’m better off.
Just tell me I was wrong.
Just tell me that I’m not enough.
Don’t think I ever want to put this behind us.
I never want to put this behind us.
I don’t want to forget you.
No, I don’t want to forget you.
Consumed by your empty words and the thought of a better Life.
Every passing second reminds me that I can’t turn back now.
When everything I say and every word I write means nothing To you,
I mean nothing to you.
If you close your eyes you’ll wake up someone new.
Surrounded by faces you swore you’ve never seen.
I said I’d never give in to the loneliness underneath my Skin.
I said I’d never give in.
Keep walking through these walls that I feel in every bone.
Keep walking through these walls that we built on our own.
I don’t want to forget you.
No, I don’t want to forget you.
Just tell me I was wrong.
Just tell me that I’m not enough.


8. HOLDING ON

Meet me where the ocean meets the sky.
We knew it had to end, we tried to keep it going.
We’re all trapped in our own lives.
Our own situations have consumed us.
But when I look back,
I like to think I’ve changed.
The person I was will not define me.
Set it off.
Cold feet, no sleep and a troubled mind.
I’m days away from yesterday.
Finding reasons just to reason with myself,
So I don’t feel this way anymore.
Cold feet, no sleep,
I’m alone in my head again.
Finding reasons just to keep holding on.
Keep holding on.
Trapped under ice and I’m breaking through.
Everything I’ve lost has become so clear.
No, an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.
Finding reasons just to keep holding on,
Through broken promises and separate ways.
There’s a part of us that stays the same,
There’s a part of you and I that will never change.


9. INVINCIBLE

We used to drive down to the ocean and walk along the wall.
We never cared much about our problems, we knew we had it All.
We never gave too much thought to the innocence we lost,
Or the words we forgot to hold onto.
We were young.
We were free.
It was just you and me.
We had love.
We had dreams that were reachable,
Or so it seemed that nothing really mattered.
When I held you in my arms,
I was yours and you were mine.
We were invincible.
Invincible…
Remember Boston, the empty roads and our drunken heart-to-Hearts.
Remember laughing about nothing while racing shopping carts.
We were on top of the world and the view was beautiful,
But nothing compared to you.


10. SEPARATIONS

I’ve been shattered,
By the eyes that betrayed me.
I’ve been deceived and misguided,
By the ones who said they would save me.
Where do you go from the bottom when all you know is Nothing?
Do I give in?
Do I let go?
Do I stand for something?
We all live with the weight of a tombstone.
Heavy on our backs,
Harder to run from.
I always thought I’d be someone who’d find their way back Home.
I always thought I’d be the one to save you from yourself.
You’re fading fast,
But when I reached out you turned away and left me on my Own.
You thought you knew me all to well,
But nothing will change my mind.
I’ve set my path and I’m leaving you behind.
Fuck all the doubters who wouldn’t believe,
And fuck all the blind who refused to see.
Suck it.
You’re falling fast.
I tried to pick you up off the ground,
But when I reached out you left me on my own.
