1. The Weight
Waves have washed me upon your shore
Smooth seas didn't make me a good sailor
I've been living with you
Within a dream that came alive
On the side
Caving in on myself
Venturing deeper within me
I've been eager to pull
To pull out the thorn in my side
To feel alive
Waiting for the call that breaks these walls
Painting these halls with the weight of it all
Be the one you want to know the most
I weigh me down just to pick me up
I'll show you me like you want me to be
The weight has made me blind
Leaving it all in open for all the world to see
I'm showing me hope to make me last
The dark haunts my presence and have erased my past
Still the melody in my heart chimed on...
Chimed on...Chimed on...
It chimed the right tone
I've been waiting for the call that'll break these walls
Painting these halls with the weight of it all
Be the one you want to know the most
I weigh me down just to pick me up
I'll show you me like you want me to be
The weight has made me blind
Oh, so blind
I'll show you me like you want me to be
Love has made me blind
2. Highest Bitter
Facing, I am fading
I've become the word transparent
Seize me as I'm wasting
Bitter tears in glorifying you
Feels like I am being devoured
Devoured by feeling blue
I build it up, you always tear it down
It seems like this is it when you're around
It's not that I don't wanna play the game
It's just that if I lose then you're to blame
You only aim for my weak mind
The one you know that you can buy
You make me sell myself to the
Highest bitter
Welcome to this exhibition
Where I am the main attraction
Come and see me in the pillory
Enjoy my misery
I know you've said it all before
When it was up to you
I didn't pull it through
I never cried out when you lied
I just smiled and slowly died
I build it up, you always tear it down
It seems like this is it when you're around
It's not that I don't wanna play the game
It's just that if I lose then you're to blame
You only aim for my weak mind
The one you know that you can buy
You make me sell myself to the
Highest bitter
3. Havoc
This time I'll go too far
Go too long, gonna set the bar
I'm out for blood, I wanna silence the peace
Cause I am havoc, let me have my release
Come on!
Pick a fight, swinging my right
Make a sucker bleed out, knocked out, lights out, goodnight
Cause in the ring, I am the raging bull
Here's to me, now go get your pull
I am the prosecutor, judge, executioner
The sound of the hammer just sealed your fate
Cause I'm the arsonist, attend my wake
As the Salem Witches burn at the stake
You're gonna see me
You're gonna scream and
You're gonna feel my blade slide in your side
You're all beneath me
You won't defeat me
Cause I am here with havoc as my bride
"Step right out folks!
Witness a real live circus freak wreaking havoc in your neighbourhood.
You better step out of his way or he'll beat you to the ground."
This time I'll go too far
Go too long, gonna set the bar
I'm out for blood, I wanna silence the peace
Cause I am havoc, let me have my release
You're gonna see me
You're gonna scream and
You're gonna feel my blade slide in your side
You're all beneath me
You won't defeat me
Cause I am here with havoc as my bride
4. Pages
Imagine me as you
Be my eyes and ears
As you read on
Learn about my past, present and future
My flaws, my belief
My success and my love
Loss and all my hopes
My grief and my death
Suffering in silence
Just to be a part of life
Smiling at the crowd while singing
Words made up by lies
My childhood years came and went
I felt nothing to repent
Minutes felt like hours
And the hours seemed like
Days
Nights
All inside is lost in
A haze
Frights
Scared of turning another page
Saved memories
Read them to me and tell
Tell me my story
Some, some will hurt but I can't live without...
I strive to find and re-light the flame
Need to re-fuel and throw away the shame
Mind over matter
That's how it's played
Suffering in silence
Just to be a part of life
Smiling at the crowd while singing
Words made up by lies
My childhood years came and went
I felt nothing to repent
Minutes felt like hours
And the hours seemed like
Days
Nights
All inside is lost in
A haze
Frights
Scared of turning another page
Oh another page
5. Flames
There is no need to decide
Light the fire, let me die
I feel no more agony
It is just like it should be
My burning fire, take me home
My one desire, feed me more
My only choir, in my dome
Let me rewire...
Shed my flesh inside the heat
Keep on going till the last heartbeat
I'll know then that I'll become
The one thing you should stay away from
My burning fire, take me home
My one desire, feed me more (and more)
My only choir, in my dome
Let me rewire...
I want to fade from a life that's never real
All alone but I am with me
I am the master of my final journey
Hold onto your seat and feel
And feel...
My burning fire, take me home
My one desire, feed me more (and more)
My only choir, in my dome
Let me rewire...
Let me go
Let me go
And let me go
Just let me go
Let me go
6. Loved Ones
I was there for a moment, but now I am gone
I was watching over you and gave you all the clues
So I gave new life to a withered rose
Tears filled my eyes and all the rest I suppose
I guess my life was ripped away from me
In death, vengeance will set me free
Loved ones, this is your song
I wrote it to you
Now that I have found what I've been looking for
I wished I could tell you
You can't see through my transparent flesh
Floating through time and space, I'm weightless
I'm in that other place where you go when you die
The place where everyone goes
So I gave new life to a withered rose
Tears filled my eyes and all the rest I suppose
Loved ones, this is your song
I wrote it to you
Now that I have found what I've been looking for
I wished I could tell you
So I gave new life to a withered rose
Tears filled my eyes and all the rest I suppose
I guess my life was ripped away from me
In death, vengeance will set me free
Loved ones, this is your song
I wrote it to you
Now that I have found what I've been looking for
I wished I could tell you
7. After The Fire
Intentionally lost
Never to be found
Some time ago this flame
This flame was drowned
I wished last time
Would be the last
Leaving those moments far
Far in the past
Hiding from your eyes to see
Hoping you would not remember me
In a safe haven
I'll be free
I'll be free
This passage could only end in flames
With no room for reason
Just starting the game
With only one breath
Again so blind
This wave of emotions poisoned my mind
Give up this heart left shattered
Survivor alone you stand
With a last leap of faith
The flames will make their brand
One thing is certain
Everything will burn
Within the ruins of men
Save what you can
Hiding from your eyes to see
Hoping you would not remember me
In my haven I'll be free
And I'll never again re-light this spark
Never again serve as your mark
Never again stand in the mire
Never again be after the fire
Come near...
Appear...
Act out...
Don't shout...
I will not fear...
Head clear...
Fall out...
Just go about...
Closing in on me
I feel the heat rising here
Within the deep pitch black
Alone with the wolf pack
I hold up the spear
And I pierce through the fear
Push forward, hit full strength
I have the heart to go the full length
Come near...
Appear...
Act out...
Don't shout...
I will not fear...
Head clear...
Fall out...
Just go about...
And I'll never again re-light this spark
Never again serve as your mark
Never again stand in the mire
Never again be after the fire
And I'll never be after the fire
No I'll never be after the fire
I'll never be after the fire
8. Remember
Name the place so you'll remember
Just open your eyes and see
Then make believe what has been is the center
That ignites the light within you
The voice inside is your defender
Just speak the words and see
Then make them bleed right through and pierce your armor
Reveal the one within you
Make your way through the madness that is life
Embrace what you might find
If sadness clouds your mind
You will have the tools to use
You'll only have to choose
The voice inside is your defender
Just speak the words and see
Then make them bleed right through and pierce your armor
Reveal the one within you
Remember when it all caves in
The marks you bear that makes you win
In the dark you search within
Just remember when it comes to giving in
The battlefield is yours to win
Remember how, remember when we wore
The coat of arms that made us heroes of the day
Just render the memories again, my friend
You know it lies within, you know where to begin
Remember when it all caves in
The marks you bear that makes you win
In the dark you search within
Just remember when it comes to giving in
The battlefield is yours to win
9. Chivalry
Run away
Far away
From the past that's chasing you
Run away
Win the race
Let your will carry you home
And then you tumble along the way
It catches you up like you were prey
It shakes you up and make you regret
"I used to love you. I used to care.
You loved me and trusted me, but I betrayed you.
You were just standing there with tears in your eyes.
I should have felt something, but I was just empty inside...
I know I should have helped you out of this puddle of mud, instead of pushing your head in face first."
You've, you've reached the borderline
You've, you've reached the borderline
It's getting closer
You can feel the heat
It's getting nearer
There's no defeat...
Dig a hole and hide
To the soil you may confide
Until it collapses and buries you alive
I guess you were unaware of it all
Ignorance blinded your actions
Where do you go when you've gone too far?
An act of chivalry
Disgracefully
Unfaithfully
Borderline
Borderline
Borderline
Borderline
