Lyrics


1. THE HOUNDS OF ANUBIS

I'm the king of the world, and it's crumbling down.
All around me falls the ruins of my enemies.
You can't control me.
Or can you not see?
You can't control me.
It's time to admit defeat.

When I speak, you listen to me.

And all we need is a release,
A reason to be and a fight in which we believe.
We are the ones who save ourselves,
Don't think these walls will keep us out.
Don't abandon, don't abandon what we've started.
'Cause I believe in you.
In fighting for whatever I have to.

You tremble and grow weak.
It'll take everything you have just to breathe.
You're begging, you're begging, "Let me out!".
You're begging, you're begging, plead for mercy.
You'll beg you'll beg you'll scream.
Fall to your knees.

You've failed me for the last time.
What's yours is mine.
Because I'm taking over.

And all we need is a release,
A reason to be and a fight in which we believe.
We are the ones who save ourselves,
Don't think these walls will keep us out.
Don't abandon, don't abandon what we've started.
'Cause I believe in you.
In fighting for whatever I have to.
(Don't abandon what we've started).

'Cause I believe in you, in fighting for whatever I have to.


2. EPIPHANY

Go!
You think I'm weak?
It's called honesty.
Believe me, here's your epiphany.
Just let go.
Your inner thoughts betray you.
I need to just let go.
It'll wear me down.
Unless I learn to finally pretend.
But I know that won't happen.

Oh it feeds and feeds.
It breaks down everything.
Destroys the life that I've been seeking.
You try to force your way in so you fight
And fight you're battling.
I believe, nothing is what it seems.

There's something you don't know, a place you'll never go.
There's something you don't know, you need to let go.
There's something you don't know, a place you'll never go.
There's something you don't know, you need to let go.

You run from everything you can't control.
Let go of control.
It will wear me down.
Unless I learn to finally pretend,
But I know that won't happen.

Oh it feeds and feeds.
It breaks down everything.
Destroys the life that I've been seeking.
You try to force your way in so you fight
And fight you're battling.
I believe, nothing is what it seems.

Oh it feeds and feeds.
It breaks down everything.
Destroys the life that I've been seeking.

Oh it feeds and feeds.
It breaks down everything.
Destroys the life that I've been seeking.
Oh it feeds and feeds.
It breaks down everything.
Destroys the life that I've been seeking.


3. THE WRETCHED

You're dead to me.
It might be hard to understand.
I'll show the world who you really are.
So just step aside.
So let this be the beginning.
The time of liars and thieves is descending.
And let this be your warning,
The path of the wretched is burning.

I thought I knew you now you can't save your name.
(We won't follow the deceiver)
Don't try to silence my words with your lies.
(We won't follow the deceiver)

What were you searching for when you stabbed me in the back?
What were you lying for when we gave you all you had?

I finally see that you've fallen away
From the bond that we had I fear it won't be the same.
I thought I knew you but you threw it away.
Now you're dead to me (fuck you).

I thought I knew you now you can't save your name.
(We won't follow the deceiver)
Don't try to silence my words with your lies.
(We won't follow the deceiver)
This is what I expected, another life lesson is what
I'm left with.
Look at what you've started...
A war of words is what we'll part with.

So don't act like you don't know exactly what you really are
The truth will find us both in the end, in the end.
The difference being that it will show me blameless while
It robs you of your breath.
Your deceiving is worthy of receiving an end.
So don't act like you don't know what you are my friend.

I thought I knew you now you can't save your name.
(We won't follow the deceiver)
This is what I expected,
Another life lesson is what I'm left with.
Look at what you've started,
A war of words is what we'll part with.
This is what I expected,
Another life lesson is what I'm left with.
Look at what you've started,
A war of words is all we'll part with.

You're dead to me
So don't act like you don't know


4. CONSIDER IT MUTUAL

Every time I look around my name is on your lips.
Every time I look around you're further away.
Every time I look around my name is on your lips.
Every time I look around you're fading away.

We taught you how to build an empire
You showed us how to tear it down.
These past few years have changed my life.
I won't give up without a fight.

If it's true that I can be replaced.
Why is it that I cannot be erased.
I can see that you're letting go (letting go)
It's kinda funny that you'll never know (never know)
I am already gone.

You think you're justified
You're tearing down my dream
I think you're terrified
You lost your way

It's time you recognize somethings you can never fight.
Will you ever learn? When will you learn?
I'm making progress, I'm where I should be.
I'll use the rage that flows through me.

If it's true that I can be replaced.
Why is it that I cannot be erased.
I can see that you're letting go (letting go)
It's kinda funny that you'll never know (never know)
I am already gone.

I never ran away, it was more of an escape.
Bitterness will plague your nights always.
My story as told by you couldn't be more wrong.
Just wait for the headlines, it won't be long.

I kept your dirty secrets, your private life.
You hide from all those who hold you up high.
I don't need to hide behind a lie.
If friends are friends for never,
You were never a friend at all!

We all know you're getting old.
You should just let go (just let go).
You can't keep it going.
I promise you, you're coming down.

Look at me and see what you could have been.
Look at me and see what you could have been.


5. 2012

You get what you deserve for fucking with me.
You get what you deserve for fucking with me.

You're not the first, you won't be the last.
Your days are numbered so make them last.

No one will recognize me
A new face, a cold heart to stand in your way
(Stand in your way).

I know I said you'd be ok.
Forgiveness won't come your way.
Well I lied, it's time you fucking die.
You've dug your grave, it's time that you pay.

No one will recognize me
A new face, a cold heart to stand in your way
(Stand in your way).
No one will recognize me
A new face, a cold heart to make you break.

I'll finish you!
I'll finish you!
I'll finish you!

You thought you could get away
And you thought you could escape.
Your time is up (Your time is up!)
You can't hide from me.

No one will recognize me
A new face, a cold heart to stand in your way
(Stand in your way).
Now this is what you get for taking my life away.
You can't run away (You can't run away!)


6. DREAM CATCHER

We’ve been a burden though we were kept alive.
By the ones we’ve forsaken, by the ones at our side.
The truth we’ve found is out there lost in everything.
We can show the way for the wandering.

When we’re young we’re so naive.
It never ends unless you seek the beauty hidden underneath.
It never ends unless you seek
(It never ends unless you seek)
It never ends unless you seek, you’ll find out who you are.

It’s easy to see we’re running out of time.
The walls are collapsing.
They’re coming down on me (coming down coming down).
And nothing’s as it seems.
This world is in ruins you can’t believe what you see.
Don’t you see, don’t you see?

Don’t you desire to see the truth?

This is what you wanted.
This is what you needed.
This is what you wanted.
This is what you needed.

Truth is out there, just believe.
Truth is out there, just believe.

It’s easy to see we’re running out of time.
The walls are collapsing.
They’re coming down on me (coming down, coming down).
And nothing’s as it seems.
This world is in ruins you can’t believe what you see.
Don’t you see, don’t you see?

This world is over!
This world is over!
This world is over!
This world is over!


7. LIKE FATHER LIKE SON

If you're not my blood, you are my bones.
The only one I've ever known.

You showed me how to be a man.
You don't know what you mean to me.
So many secrets run through me.

Don't fuck with family!
Don't fuck with family!

I've tried to be a better man
For you will see that I've grown.

I know we've both made mistakes but you could never fail me.
In my heart you're the one who's molded me to be
A man who could make you proud.
Do you have regrets do you ever look back?
Do you have regrets, don't look back.

The one I turn to.
Nobody sees me as you do.
You're always there.

You taught me all I know (you better me I know)
You taught me all I know (you better me I know)
I'm sorry for the times I made you sad
I just want you to know that.

I know we've both made mistakes but you could never fail me.
In my heart you're the one who's molded me to be
A man who could make you proud.
Do you have regrets do you ever look back?
Do you have regrets, don't look back.
(Don't hold back, don't hold back!)

Many nights I laid awake trying to think of a way to say
But the words just don't seem to escape.
They get trapped at the start but the feelings won't fade.
So here's a song to say I love you.

This is the one I hope will let you know
I don't need blood but I need bones. You are my home.

I know we've both made mistakes but you could never fail me.
In my heart you're the one who's molded me to be a man who could make you proud.
Do you have regrets do you ever look back?
Do you have regrets, don't look back.

I don't need blood! I need bones!


8. BATTLE ROYALE

Breathe!
They will turn their backs on me unless I decide to breathe.
You will forget me unless I breathe..
I've seen the worst in myself tonight.
I almost lost the fight.
My mind is lost within my dreams.
Pinned down, wrapped up, in the arms of sleep.
I feel it slowing now. I can barely see my way out.

I won't forget.
And every single time I see your face it reminds me of why
I walked away.
I won't forget.
And this is how you remind me that when I walked away,
I was right to save me from myself.
Goodbye, never say I am not enough.

I'm scared I've thrown it all away and
I'll never be the same
What have they done? What have I become...
This is the end of running from you.
I promise you that

I won't forget.
And every single time I see your face it reminds me of why
I walked away.
I won't forget.
And this is how you remind me that when I walked away,
I was right to save me from myself.
Goodbye, never say I am not enough.

Never say never, never say I'm not enough.
Never say that I...
Never say never, never say I'm not enough.
Never say I'm not enough!


9. YOU'RE ALL I SEE

Hold back, I won't hold back.
This fight will be the death of me,
Or will it set me free?
(Will it finally set me free)
Will it set me free?

Love me if you know what it means,
And I'll be as strong
As you need me to be
(As strong as you need).
Yeah you'll see.

And everywhere I look you're all I see.
Did you mean anything?
Can't you see you're my everything.

And I was on the outside looking in.
You know I want you, I want you
(you're all I see).
And I cannot let go.

Stay awake,
Don't let it pull you in.
It'll drag you under water,
With no chance to swim.
It's gonna try,
Gonna try to pull us in.

The fog rolls in to block out the light.
Answers and questions
Removed from all sight.
But I won't give up, if you won't.
I won't give up, if you won't.

And everywhere I look you're all I see.
Did you mean anything?
Can't you see you're my everything.

And I was on the outside looking in.
You know I want you, I want you
(You're all I see).
And I cannot let go.

I was on the outside looking
From the wrong side of it all.
You know I need you, I need you,
I cannot let... I cannot let go.

Hold on, hold on!
Can't you see?
Please believe...

And I was on the outside looking in...
You know I want you, I want you.
(You're all I see)
And I cannot let go.

Now I'm on the inside looking
From the right side of it all.
You know you want me,
I want you! So let's not let...
Let's not let this go.

Hold back, I won't hold back.
This fight will be the death of me,
Or will it set me free?
Will it set me free?

It's not about what you've done.
It's all about what you'll become.
What you'll become.


10. WE KNOW WHO YOU ARE

You’re fucking fake!
Two-faced!

You’ve gone down this path of no return.
The reputation you have, you haven’t earned.

Now it’s time you learn.

I think you’re cursed.
What can I say…
I’ll crush your dreams, I’ll end your days.
(Now!)

Why am I the only one who sees inside you,
I see right through you.

Why am I the only one who knows exactly who you are.
Exactly who you are.

Your lies will fall on deaf ears.
You can’t ruin any more lives.
Now live in fear.

Live in fear.
Live in fear.
Live in fear of me.

Why am I the only one who sees inside you,
I see right through you.

Why am I the only one who knows exactly who you are
Exactly who you are.

This time your lies won’t get you far
We know who you are.
This time your lies won’t get you far
We know who you are.
This time your lies won’t get you far
We know who you are.
This time your lies won’t get you far
We know who you are.
This time your lies won’t get you far.
We know who you are.

Why am I the only one who sees inside you,
I see right through you.

Why am I the only one who knows exactly who you are
Exactly who you are.

Why am I the only one who sees inside you,
I see right through you.

Why am I the only one who knows exactly who you are.
Exactly who you are.

“This time your lies won’t get you far
We know who you are.”
