Isolation
Nobody left
Communication but nothing said
The black sheep of the herd never gets to say a word
Just sits back and lets the castle burn
There's no hope for them to understand your pain
They wouldn't help you anyway
Run for your life
There's nothing left to gain
No will to fight
Take everything away
One step off the ledge and it's a long way down
A long way down
Mass confusion
Nothing clear
In conclusion
We're all so insincere
Actors under stage lights waiting for the closing line
Some stars just never get to shine
There's no hope for us been led too far astray
Time only measures our decay
Run for your life
There's nothing left to gain
No will to fight
Take everything away
One step off the ledge and it's a long way down
A long way down

Puppet Dance

Places places everyone the show is about to start
The crowd is eagerly awaiting this work of art
Remember your lines and maintain your disguise
Let yourself become the mask you hide behind
This is a masterpiece
A comic tragedy
A romance horror mystery and everything in between
Don't make them ever want to look away
Dance puppet dance let your strings do the talking
Dance puppet dance now cause everyone's watching
The life of a marionette is exhausting
So dance puppet dance now cause crying ain't solving a thing
The curtain closes for the intermission
It's gone well so far the audience is having a ball
Take a moment to admire the applause that you're given
Don't break your concentration now
Remember the show goes on
You are the star of the evening shining bright
No second chances now all eyes are on you tonight
This is the moment you've been waiting for all your life
Dance puppet dance let your strings do the talking
Dance puppet dance now cause everyone's watching
The life of a marionette is exhausting
So dance puppet dance now cause crying ain't solving a thing
The show is over there's a standing ovation
The curtain closes and your heart is racing
This is the night that they'll be talking about
For the rest of their lives
For the rest of their lives
Dance puppet dance now you've managed to please them
Without any rhyme or with out any reason
The life of a marionette's incomplete
And it's lost without guidance from writers and blind puppeteers

Freedom

It's been a long time coming up from under the surface
Chosen my direction gonna make it worth the wait
Acceleration elevating every step I take
Taunted by the ground below
Ascendancy I claim
I will not be afraid
A shallow grave I will not dig myself today
The sky above awaits
I'll heed the call
No slave to gravity I'll gain control
Don't catch me if I fall
I'll do this on my own
I'm gone I'm going home
Holding ties are severed now
Oceans unexplored
The path I walk enlightened by the bridges that I burn
Stripped of all dependency
The tables have been turned
Lived and I have learned
I'll heed the call
No slave to gravity I'll gain control
Don't catch me if I fall
I'll do this on my own
I'm gone I'm going home
A shallow grave I will not dig myself today
The sky above awaits

Rum or Die
03:49

A rope in my hand and the wind on my back
The ocean the only home that I'll ever have
I sail through infinity possessing no fear of what lies underneath
Or what I'll never see
This vessel grows colder with each passing night
Relying on the rum just to keep me alive
This life isn't easy
I know it's the only thing left for me
It's all that I need
The land I once loved has no love left for me
So I've made my home on the infinite sea
Don't dare try to find me I'm far beyond your reach
It's the pirates life for me
The country is crawling with murderous thieves
They'll cut off your head if you fail to believe
That the have all the answers to questions that you'll never ask yourself
Or anyone else
The sea's unforgiving but it remains fair
The weak torn apart but I will not be scared
I'll face all the demons
If it kills me at least I can say that I'm free
I'll perish in peace
The land I once loved has no love left for me
So I've made my home on the infinite sea
Don't dare try to find me I'm far beyond your reach
It's the pirate's life for me
The land I once loved has no love left for me
So I've made my home on the infinite sea
Don't dare try to find me I'm far beyond your reach
If this kills me at least I can say that I'm free
From the shackles of life
Cause I'd rather be dead than afraid to survive
No one deserves to be terrified to open their eyes
So this is my goodbye

Post Life Crisis
05:37

I close my eyes and say my prayers on the darkest of all nights
But I get the funny feeling now that something isn't right
I'm looking out the window and I can't believe my eyes
Risen corpses roam the streets the dead return to feast upon life
Lock your doors and bar your windows
This is a war we'll never win
Though we can't be sure when it may end
We will see it through until our final breath
Blood will soak the streets tonight
Relinquish hope the dead are rising
All alone but I'm surviving amidst all this confusion
Splitting heads they're multiplying
Seeing red continue fighting
Mothers screaming children crying
Final resolution
This is the end this is the end of everything we know
We can't pretend we can't pretend we'll live to see tomorrow
So raise your weapons hold them high
There's no way we'll make it out of this alive
They won't take us down without a fight
Monsters lurk at every corner
Armageddon stands before us
If I live I can't be sure what future this could bring
Gun in one hand knife in the other
Hopes and dreams are torn asunder
Punishment we all must suffer for what we have become
This is our final stand and we don't have a chance
So hold your loved ones close and say your final prayers
This is the end this is the end of everything we know
We can't pretend we can't pretend we'll live to see tomorrow
So raise your weapons hold them high
There's no way we'll make it out of this alive
They won't take us down without a fight
The human race brought to it's knees
At the mercy of the murderous deceased
How could we think that we'd survive
A civilization built on lies
We don't deserve to be alive
My final breath escapes my lungs
And I can't help but laugh at what we have become
I know that we deserve this though we never understood it
Underneath the surface we were zombies from the start
This is the end this is the end of everything we know
We can't pretend we can't pretend we'll live to see tomorrow
So raise your weapons hold them high
There's no way we'll make it out of this alive
They won't take us down without a fight

Let Them Burn
05:23
|
|

We fear those who protect us
Revere those who neglect us
We are not alone
The hour of redemption upon us now
We'll spend it taking back the throne
The last man standing was always meant to stay alive
It's time for them to learn what happens when you play with fire
Smile as we let them burn
They've come to strip us of our power
Relieve us of our pride
Among the wreckage we'll survive
Hold on to what they cannot take away
It's been so long since we have seen the light of day
Conforming to their will while they find pleasure in our pain
Constant contradictions let them feed off our submission
Now their ignition will become the light that guides our way
They've come to strip us of our power
Relieve us of our pride
Among the wreckage we'll survive
Hold on to what they cannot take away
And when the ground beneath them fails to hold the weight of all their ignorance
They will know that we were right
Don't wound what you can never hope to kill
Don't wound what you can never hope to kill
The fear in your eyes is as clear as the sky
As your souls ascend to the sun
So how does it feel to know nothing is real
When all that you've worked for is gone
Silence falls as heroes rise
Hand in hand we've taken back our lives
Fear not their power
Heed not their pride
The last man left standing was meant to claim victory
Broken and bruised but you're still standing here with me
Nowhere to go now
And no one to lead
But we'll find our way
Find our way
