Slip the Noose

I see a young me in you
So wide eyed and confused
Anger glows in your heart
igniting that very spark
Consuming me, protecting you
Consuming me, protecting you
We must slip this noose
We must slip this noose
A burning open book
ashes before we look
The story of my life
suppress to survive
Consuming me, protecting you
Consuming me, protecting you
We must slip this noose
We must slip this noose
Ah
Slip the noose
Slip the noose
Slip the noose
Slip the noose

Doom in Bloom
03:17

I feel the sunlight retreat
It does not want me to see
what my introspection brings
as the words leak out of me
Everything's a shade of red
from the mirror to my hands
Staining everything I touch
as I reach for what is loved
Smearing fleeting memories
spattering those I can't see
Pieces of what used to be
pooling around my two feet
No one has the right to judge me
as I pick at open wounds
Some cuts are deeper than lifetimes
Roots that kill must be removed
I feel the sunlight retreat
It does not want me to see
what my introspection brings
as the words leak out of me
Everything's a shade of red
from the mirror to my hands
Staining everything I touch
as I reach for what is loved
Smearing fleeting memories
spattering those I can't see
Pieces of what used to be
pooling around my two feet
No one has the right to judge me
as I pick at open wounds
Some cuts are deeper than lifetimes
Roots that kill must be removed
Doom in bloom
Doom in bloom
Doom in bloom
Doom in bloom
Doom in bloom

It Only Gets Worse

Rising waters
drowning me
Slitting my throat
Writhing, as blood flows into the sea
One lesson I’ve learned
This world's indifferent to me
To me...
Rising waters
drowning me
Slitting my throat
Writhing, as blood flows into the sea
One lesson I’ve learned
This world's indifferent to me
To me...
This I can no longer endure...
It only gets worse
It only gets worse
It only gets worse, it only gets worse
It only gets worse, it only gets worse
It only gets worse, it only gets worse

There is nothing to win
if there's no one to lose
The scars we leave are not
our paths we choose
And it's all on the line
for the weary and wise
Everything earned
came with a cost
We will never know
how much blood was lost
There is nothing to win
if there's no one to lose
The scars we leave are not
our paths we choose
And it's all on the line
for the weary and wise
Everything earned
came with a cost
We will never know
how much blood was lost
There is something that I must admit
Giving up is starting to make sense
When all of this passion withers away
only the beaten and broken will stay
Sometimes the agony is just too much
I do not want to hurt
I never thought that I would be too late
Don't be blown apart by your mistakes
Don't be blown apart by your mistakes
Just one more thing before I forget
I found a way to disarm from within
When standing eye to eye with your darkness
plunge the blade of spite into its chest
Reach into the wound for innocence
Remove the resent
Make amends before it grows too late
Don't be blown apart by your mistakes
Don't be blown apart by your mistakes
Don't be blown apart by your mistakes
Detonator
Detonator
Don't be blown apart by your mistakes
Detonator
Detonator
Don't be blown apart by mistakes

I Won't Let You Go

I want to be, the better me
That you deserve, to finally see
The dullest blade sharpens the truth
That every day, I'm losing you
I want to be, the better me
That you deserve, to finally see
The dullest blade sharpens the truth
That every day, I'm losing you
There's no easy way to say
There's nothing left to save
There's no easy way to say
I've destroyed everything
Please, just don't let me go
Please, just don't give up hope
I want to be the better me
That you deserve to finally see
The dullest blade sharpens the truth
That every day, I'm losing you
I want to be the better me
That you deserve to finally see
The dullest blade, sharpens the truth
That every day, I'm losing you
There's no easy way to say
There's nothing left to save
There's no easy way to say
I've destroyed everything
There's no easy way to say
There's nothing left to save
There's no easy way to say
I've destroyed everything
Please, just don't let me go
Please, just don't give up hope
Please, just don't let me go
Please, just don't give up hope
Please, just don't let me go
Please, just don't give up hope
Please, just don't let me go
Please, just don't give up hope
I'm so timid to us
Flinch at the slightest touch
Resistant to pure love
How deep dysfunction cuts
How far can violence reach
To find the missing key
Living in fear of
Vulnerability
I'm so timid to us
Flinch at the slightest touch
Resistant to pure love
How deep dysfunction cuts
How far can violence reach
To find the missing key

Vulnerability
Please, just don't let me go
Please, just don't give up hope

It's Not Up To Us

It's not up to us
this pace we must run
It's not up to us
this pace we must run
In the middle
of the line
I look left then
to the right
It's not up to us
this pace we must run
It's not up to us
this pace we must run
To never be
quite good enough
To never be
quite good enough
it's not up to us
this pace we must run
it's not up to us
this pace we must run
To never be
quite good enough
To never be
quite good enough
Ah
In the middle
of the line
I look left then
to the right
It's not up to us
this pace we must run
It's not up to us
this pace we must run
To never be
quite good enough
To never be
quite good enough
There is no end in sight
without the will to fight

Dream Debris

When I was just a boy
I so wanted to be loved
when I thought held your hand
I know now it was a gun
It was empty from the start
but a threat to make them run
A veil of protection
though we needed none
Paint with debris
Die in the dream
Dream debris, dream debris
When I grew into a teen
I wouldn't dare to speak
Unable to understand
I was not meant to be
And as I’ve become a man
the burden I do not need
I stand before you all
a self portrait in debris
Paint with debris
Die in the dream
Dream debris, dream debris
We were deceived
when led to believe
we could be anything
we wanted to be
We were deceived
when led to believe
we could be anything
we wanted to be
Dream debris, dream debris
Dream debris, dream debris

Hum of Hurt

Running uphill
swimming upstream
Choosing this life
I refused to concede
I never knew what
it meant to be free
I’m not the man
I wanted to be
Soul searching leaves
a murder scene
with evidence
of such catastrophe
Mirrors reflect what
the world doesn't see
I’m not the man
I wanted to be
We are so cruel when old gives way to new
...when old gives way to new
We are so cruel when old gives way to new
...when old gives way to new
I know this one hurts
I know this one hurts
We are so cruel when old gives way to new
...when old gives way to new
We are so cruel when old gives way to new
...when old gives way to new
I know this one hurts
I know this one hurts
I know this one hurts
I’m not the man
I wanted to be

Nothing is Over

Get up now, nothing's over
We must run deep into the night
Wake up now, do not cower
They have come for the glow inside
You must know, nothing's over
No time left, we are in their sight
March headlong, take no cover
We must rage for the dying light
Spirit will bend
Love retreats
Soul gives in
Heart depletes
Get up now, nothing's over
We must run deep into the night
Wake up now, do not cower
They have come, for the glow inside
You must know, nothing's over
No time left, we are in their sight
March headlong, take no cover
We must rage for the dying light
Bureaucracy, aims to cull and incite
Theocracy, seeks to enslave the mind
Technology, it's deceiving our eyes
Autonomy, is the fight for our lives
Spirit will bend
Love retreats
Soul gives in
Heart depletes
Get up now, nothing's over
We must run deep into the night
Wake up now, do not cower
They have come for the glow inside
You must know, nothing's over
No time left, we are in their sight
March headlong, take no cover
We must rage for the dying light
