World of Lies

Verse 1:
Bloody nightfall
Whispers sunlight
Still as evil as I’d thought it was
Creepers rampage
Rambunctious mind-slaves
Still as lovely as I’d thought they were
Chorus:
Why these lies?
Honey, honey, I’m so sick of the lies (x2)
Verse 2:
Well a black hand pulls me
And he calls out slowly
You’re as beautiful as I’d thought you were
Baby’s crying
And she won’t stop crying
And the mother, mother is out working to buy a soul
Kill the father
And your God is bothered
Society, she is out working, searching for the same soul
Screw me over
And you’re one step closer
To the achievement there that is burning, fresh in your mind
(Chorus)
Bridge:
Why? (x3)
Chorus:
Why these lies?
Honey, honey, I’m so done with your world of lies (x2)

Verse 1:
I saw you yesterday, looking through the fog mirror
I saw you yesterday, looking through the glass
They told me yesterday, when I was looking through the fogged mirror
They told me yesterday, surely it would crack
Chorus:
So what’s it like, Alice, underground?
Because they’ve banned us from going down
And what do you see, Alice, in the Earth?
Mother nature, she’s giving birth
Verse 2:
Who are you? (x3)
Who are you, Alice?
Eat me, drink me, eat me, drink me
Help me, help me
Oh, Alice
Eat me, drink me, eat me, drink me
One gets bigger, another gets smaller
Help me, help me
An issue gets bigger, an issue gets smaller
And the thing on the news from yesterday got set aside for a brand new thing
Alice, why are you sitting down for tea? Help me
World War III is starting, Global Warming is increasing
People are living on the streets, people don’t have enough to eat
Alice, I’m starving here
(Instrumental Break)
(Chorus)
Outro:
Oh no, our Earth
Mother, our Earth
Sister, our Earth
Oh no (x2)

Easy Anarchy
05:22
|
|
||
|
Verse 1:
Science fiction
Overwhelming pictures, set the scene, we fall in ditches
Never-ending supersonic advertisement
A mask upon the Earth
Velvet rabbit
We follow you, we wreck the truth, a migrant trader (traitor),
A shadow in the sky, I feel my feet are burning
A sinner built from birth
Chorus:
Easy Anarchy
Fate is coming for me
Verse 2:
So tell the Nazis
Hold them to their tongues, and stop the vacant zombies
Eradicate the future of the plants and flowers
The valiant murderer
Shifty system
The president of fuck you all, the loss of victims
A spiritual consciousness for proposition
A tumbleweed amiss
(Chorus)
(Instrumental Break)
Chorus:
Easy anarchy
Fate is coming for me
Easy anarchy
God have mercy on your soul

Whatever Though

Verse 1:
I sit and wait upon a park bench
The lights are passing by
Sudden explosion in the sky
It’s getting late, the moon is passing
I’m fragrant, and I’m fierce
I dip away without a care
Chorus:
They say it goes on and on
Scattered, but still strong
It goes on and on
The end will never come
(Instrumental Break)
Verse 2:
I fall asleep upon that park bench
The night left me behind
I thought the heat would blow my mind
And I don’t know why I can’t save you
It’s fucking vicious and it’s cruel
But human, don’t you know I made you
We can’t all play it by the rules
Chorus:
It’s hypnotic and wrong
It goes on and on, stupidly along
It goes on and on
It’s broken ‘til it burns down
It goes on and on
The end is coming soon now
Bridge:
So value who I wish to be
And watch the world still disappear around me
And tell me why I’m such a burden
To this poor Earth, its iron curtain
Chorus:
It goes on and on, hypnotic and wrong
It goes on and on, stupidly along
It goes on and on
We broke it, so it burned down
It goes on and on
The end is coming soon now
Outro:
Whatever though

Mask
04:48
|
|

|
Verse 1:
Here lies the filthy stench of everlasting procreation
We stumble to our deaths of human-biased information
In dwelling up above, there is no longer admiration
For soon, we’ll all go down the rabbit hole of slow evasion
Forget your parent or your company, what’s more convenient
Than zoning out and running pictures through your head again
Forgive your father, for he knows just what he does, now listen
Take the bait
Chorus:
And witness deja vu brawling with you
I’m crawling with you
Witness deja vu, it’s not what you’d heard
Extinction’s absurd
Verse 2:
I have a memory from when I was just a child
All of the brainwashed humans walk around unreconciled
And soon they’ll come to know of just what lies beyond the curtain
As they appear to consummate, their egos all uncertain
Forgive your parent or your company, whichever’s decent
I’m zoning out and hearing anthems in my head again
And once I reach the dirt, you’re standing at the grave I dug for all of you
Chorus:
Witness deja vu brawling with you
I’m climbing with you
Witness deja vu, it’s not what you heard
Extinction’s absurd
Bridge:
It’s absurd (x4)
(Instrumental Break)
Chorus:
So witness deja vu brawling with you
I’m flying with you
Witness deja vu, it’s not what you’d heard
Extinction’s absurd
It’s absurd

The Reckoning
05:18
|
|
||
|
Verse 1:
Murderous, but the urge is fleeting
Watch me walk, I can feel it creeping
To the well, where I’ll slip and fall down
Straight to hell, I can’t stop the thoughts now
Pre-Chorus:
But I know it’s not the chemicals
That cause me to be the way I am
And I know it’s not the tradition
‘Cause I’ve tried so hard to deviate
Chorus:
I don’t think I’ve lost my way
I won’t let go
I reckon you’ve lost your mind, so
Let me know when you decide to have some more compassion
(Instrumental Break)
Verse 2:
Just had to stop the pain
Please don’t tell, I’ll never start again
Need some more, sorry I betrayed you
I’m a whore
Pre-Chorus:
Please, I swear it’s not the chemicals
That cause me to leave you in the dust
Don’t you judge, you’re such a hypocrite
I’m just trying not to feel
Chorus 2:
I think that you’ve lost your way
I’m letting go
I reckon you’ve lost control, so
Let me know when you return to face a new direction
(Instrumental Outro)

March Of The Gods

|

|
Verse 1:
I take the first step
I smile through the fear
Though now I’m not sure, I might disappear
And it seems quite strange
His self-righteous behavior
But it’s an elegant chance to meet our maker
Chorus:
Open up your mind, and nurture your thoughts
Nurture all your soul, and piece all the parts together
There is a revolution standing by
Open up your heart, don’t turn a blind eye
Focus all your love, there’s a rise in the tides, meanwhile
There is a revolution standing by
Bridge:
All’s not lost
All’s not lost
Here we are
All’s not lost
Verse 2:
Step number two
Confronting the demons
It’s a vicious battle between darkness and light
And we might overcome
If we march forward with purpose
But the unity’s gone, and it’s making me nervous
(Chorus)
Bridge:
All’s not lost
All’s not lost
Here we are
All’s not lost
Look again
We can win
Look again
We will win
Step number three

Queen Of Wands
05:19
|
|
||
|
Verse 1:
All these cards have lived up to their purpose
Now they are a mess upon the table
I sit and observe their bleeding colors
As they, scattered, lay a metaphor for my future
Chorus:
But I am the queen,
If you know what I mean,
I’ll work my magic in your dreams
The queen of wands, I’ll be
(Instrumental Break)
Bridge:
So who am I but a fighter jet
Flying and bombing in the breeze
And who am I but a control freak
I’ll dictate your every move
If chaos is of a virtue
I’m a minor prodigy
And I’ll fly until I explode you
You don’t want a thing to do with me
Verse 2:
So I want to know if you’ll still love me
But I’m too ashamed to ask you, so
Please try to forgive me for obsession
I’m not angry, I just want to know
Chorus:
Because I am the queen
And I know just what you need
So just hold me
The queen of wands, don’t leave

Roommate

|
|
||
|
Verse 1:
I don’t think I’m going home
Those who gave me hope are gone
And I’m lost again
Fading, waiting, alone
Please get me out of here
My brain has checked out from the fear
And I want to believe that the runaround is over
But I’ve never found a four-leaved clover in this field of horror
Chorus:
I beg for attention
Though I’ll never mention
Just what has happened here
I transfer the tension, the stress, and pretend that I’m okay
I welcome the sorrow
For I hope tomorrow will correct what I feel
But as for right now, I have a new roommate
And this one doesn’t steal
Verse 2:
So zero closes in
I’d like to think I have a friend
And I try to maintain optimism even though hell has risen
Even though
Dear God, help me to believe all that I witness is not reality
And I’ll wake up from this nightmare
At home, back in my body
At one with my soul again
Chorus:
I beg for attention
Though I’ll never mention
Just what has happened here
I transfer the tension, the stress, and pretend that I’m okay
I’m okay
I welcome the sorrow
For I hope tomorrow will correct what I feel
But as for right now, I have a new roommate
And this one doesn’t steal
Bridge:
Please, get me out of here
Dear God, help me to believe
Please, get me out of here
Dear God
Chorus:
I beg for attention
Though I’ll never mention
Just what has happened here
I transfer the tension, the stress, and pretend that I’m okay
I’m okay, I swear to you
I welcome the sorrow
For I hope tomorrow will correct what I feel
But as for right now, I have a new roommate
And this one doesn’t steal

Is This Life...
13:41
|
|
||
|
Verse 1:
My hometown was hit by a car yesterday
I heard it on the news
Our new laws have justice thrown away
I heard it on the news
We all tried to fight for our lives
I heard it on the news
Any move we try to make is a failure
I saw it on TV
Chorus:
Is this life or betrayal of life
Where hypocrites control the world
No, we can't end world hunger, baby
But we sure can start a war
Is this life or treason, honey
I can't seem to find out myself
Is this world so cruel that maybe
The poor are banned from having wealth
Verse 2:
Teenage suicide level increases
I saw it on TV
Another child star's in rehab
Well isn't that the Disney dream
When you wish upon a star
You yawn then go to sleep
Racism is back on the streets
And all the mixed kids
We're crying
(Chorus)
(Instrumental Break)
(Chorus)

Part 1-
Verse 1:
A sullen road, I walk along
Amidst blackness, I appear
Silence my brain of the sounds
What am I doing here?
Chorus:
Wouldn't it be nice to be a spider?
Wouldn't it be nice to trap my prey?
And if you ever killed me
Wouldn't it be nice to have your way?
Verse 2:
Everything I'd ever want
Is trapped inside a dream
I make vows, I live them down
In nonconformity
So tell me, who am I to be
In this blank society?
And if I could restore myself
In self-sufficiency, oh
Chorus:
Wouldn't it be nice to be a spider?
Wouldn't it be nice to trap my prey?
So suck the blood, power me up
Wouldn't it be nice to kill today
Bridge:
Wouldn't it be nice?
Wouldn't it be swell?
To be venomous
In malevolence
(Instrumental Break)
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
Part 2-
And then she crawled upon the stairs
And I wondered why she had visited me
Upon those melancholy stairs
Looked in her eyes and I saw my own face
I wanted to chop her down standing there
With that mocking look she gave
I wanted to set her on fire
I wanted right to my territory
Of all the evil in the world
Her eyes, her eyes, her eyes
Of all the evil in the world
Her eyes, her eyes, her eyes, my cries
And then I knew that she was me
I wished her death and I wished my own pain
I cannot take away her chains
She dies, I cry, she cried
And wouldn't it be nice to be her? (Wouldn't it be nice?)
Wouldn't it be nice? (Wouldn't it be nice?)
And if I ever killed her, if I ever killed me
Who would even know it was me?
This venom that I have
Looking into my reflection again
This venom that she has
She could end me with a single bite of her shame
Looking at me
Elimination game

Verse 1:
Cold as ice
Bold as starlight
Woe is me on a bad night
Your pity is such a sad fight
I told you to give up
You kept me around for the feeling
'Cause there's nothing else like a hot fling
And I don't know why you entrapped me
If you planned to set me free
Chorus:
Voca me cum benedictis
Voca me cum benedictis
Verse 2:
So tell me now
Do you read me?
All my tears taste like whiskey
And I was warm when you held me
But you whispered slow, give in
And I let you steal all you wanted
I couldn't heal, so I confronted you
And now that you feel so indifferent to
I pray you'll sing with me
(Chorus) (x2)
Verse 3:
Cold as ice
Bold as starlight
Woe is me on a bad night
And your pity is such a sad fight
I told you to give up
So tell me now
Do you read me?
All my tears taste like whiskey
And I was warm when you held me
But you whispered slow, give in
(Chorus)
