1. The Price We Pay

Things never seem to go according to plans
so we always end up improvising,
we're not smart enough to have a plan B at hand
so we always end up compromising,
it's killing us to settle with the cards we get
when we know there's much more at stake,
but giving in to pressure is the safest bet
& it's also our biggest mistake.

That's the price we pay, that's the price we pay

we never asked to be put into this position
we never had high demands,
we never clamed to be on some kind of mission
like we had some kind of masterplan,
it's not as if we know exactlywhat we came for
so we settle for what comes our way,
we're always unprepared for the final encore
what the fuck are we supposed to say.

Every move we make every step we takethat's the price we pay,
every rule we break, every move we fake that's the price we pay!

2. Life Will Kill You

You can't escape life just because you stopped living
but you're dead the same second you decide to just give in
and given the choice between your own life and death
I suggest that you cherish the time you have left
'cause time waits for no one and we're all growing older
I've found myself looking more over my shoulder
I like to say fuck it i could be dead tomorrow
and deal with the stress the pain and the sorrow

life will kill you, in the end we're all gonna die
life will kill you, it doesn't matter how hard you try
life will kill you, even if you don't give a damn

what part of your own death that you don't understand
death comes in all sizes all shapes and all colours
but we like to believe that it only happens to others
the closer we get we try to avoid it
we've tampered with nature so much we've destroyed it
it slips through our fingers the more we live
what the fuck are we thinking acting like we control it
it's a cold fact of life but we should try to be brave
how brave can you be with one foot in the grave

life will kill you, in the end we're all gonna die
life will kill you, it doesn't matter how hard you try
life will kill you, even if you don't give a damn

what part of your own death that you don't understand

life will kill you, it's all a part of the great big plan
life will kill you, even if you're in a rock and roll band
life will kill you, so you might as well enjoy each breath

and now you're three minutes closer to death

3. Prisoners

It's all in your head the thoughts you have that build your world illusion,
the faith you need so you can proceed & build a saine solution
is it the truth, is there any proof to back up the things you believe in,
or is it a dream to make it seem like a goal that you're achieving

We are the prisoners, of the system we create
We are the prisoners, stuck inside the space we made to escape

What can you do to make it through the mindtricks you're producing
learn to live with the faith you lack, the faith that you're reducing,
you can be curel & ridicule the current situation,
but what will it take for you to break the self illumination?

We are the prisoners, of the system we create
We are the prisoners, stuck inside the space we made to escape

We're stuck in a rut,
we keep on mixing things up & we can't tell what's fiction from fact,
the more we all try to live up to the illusion
the more we all fall through the cracks.

We are the prisoners, of the system we create
We are the prisoners, stuck inside the space we made to escape

4. Final Stand

I see the truth in the eyes of the sky
& since I was a baby I've been destined to die,
this life it has no meaning,
I greet death like a friend,
I'm in a state of worship,
I've got a faith a must defend,
my ticket to the heavenly,
my salvation from hell,
my gateway to eternity,
my escape this insanity.

My death will be my final stand, my death will be my sacrifice
my death will be my last command & be my guide to paradise

My grave is open,
I've said my good-byes,
Ma path has been chosen,
my faith can't be denied,
a better life awaits me if I make my sacrifice,
my sins will be forgiven when I reach my paradise,
my tikcet to the heavenly,
my salvation from hell,
my gateway to eternity,
my escape from this insanity

5. None The Wiser

You Want A Piece Of The Cake It's Not Yours For The Taking,
You Make A Hen Out Of A Feather With The Proof That You're Faking,
You Play Your Cards Like You're Sitting On All Of The Aces,
But You Don't Even Know What A Real Poker Face Is

You Take What You Can Get From What's Left On The Table,
You Make Facts Out Of Fiction Based On Rumours And Fables,
You're Waiting For A Chance To Get A Share Of What They Created,
You Want A Foot In The Door When History's In The Making

Chorus: You're Chasing Waterfalls To Make Your Way Upstream,
You're Eating Sleeping Pills To Reach Your Highest Dreams,
Your Mediocracy Takes YOu To New Extremes,
You're Two Times Bitter But You're None The Wiser

You Never Participate In The Collective Agreements,
But Take Credit Where You Can For Other Peoples Achievements,
Then You Break Down And Cry When All Your Great Expectations,
Are Pulled From Under Your Feet And Turn Into Desperation

Where Can You Go,
What Can You Say,
Who Can You Turn To,
To Get It Into Your Head?

6. Little Baby

You're my little baby,
there's nothing to be scared of,
I promise you'll be safe right here with me,
You don't have to cry now,
just keep a little secret,
You'll never know where daddy hides the keys.
just do what I tell you
if you don't try to fight it
then I promise you that it won't hurt.
You know you can trust me,
so move a little closer
and let me put my hand under your skirt.

This house is not a happy home

I just wanna touch you
sneak on down beside you
and feel the softness of your perfect skin.
Don't feel bad about it,
I promise you it's normal,
'cause loving you could never be a sin.
Don't you talk about it
'cause no one will beleive you,
they'll say it's just one of your bad dreams.
and mummy isn't home now,
there is noone to disturb us,
so nobody will know where daddy's been

This house is not a happy home

7. The Cure & The Poison

It's the payoff the reward
The release from all the tension
The biggest wise in my life and it adds a new dimension
It's the beauty and the beast
It's my fall and it's my saviour
A good excuse for self abuse the changed my behaviour
I love it and I loath it with a passion that's superior
It fucks with my emotions and it makes me feel interior
It breaks me down and then builds up a wonderful illusion
That brings out my emotions and adds to the confusion
It's not a problem I can do just fine without it
But I wouldn't chance it that's the fucked up thing about it
It pulls me in and spits me out without a secong warning
It puts me right out in the cold
While it's busy warming
It's a hopeless competition and there's no way I can win it
But I never tend to see the signs while I'm stuck right in it
I play the game and lose the game
There's no way to avoid it
Cos I'm too busy fucking up pretending I've I've enjoyed it

The cure and the poison
The loss and the gain
Escaping once again
The cause and solution
The pleasure and pain
All run through my veins

All I need is just one more I promise I'll be fine
It's really just a harmless way for me to kill some time
I'll sit back and lose my track and work hard on a case
It helps me blur out all the sharpest edges in this place
It's always gets the best of me while being etnertaining
But in the end there's not a single ounce of sense remaining
I scrape myself up off the floor and mend the broken pieces
And do it all again the vicious cycle never ceases

The cure and the poison
The loss and the gain
Escaping once again
The cause and solution
The pleasure and pain
All run through my veins

8. Where Can We Go From Here?

New crimes come with new treasures
new times call for new measures
new dreams come with new let downs
lost games come with new rebounds

new love comes with new losses
new faith comes with new crosses
new cash comes with new winnings
new life comes with new beginnings

where can we go from here?
where the fuck can we go from here?
where can we go from here?
where the fuck can we go from here?

new signs come with new warnings

new laws come with new leaders
new lies come with new decievers

where can we go from here?
where the fuck can we go from here?
where can we go from here?

where the fuck can we go from here?

where do we go from here

it's a part of the game part of the gamble
we go we left this handles
screw you're hand with you're lucky strokes
and the loosing street coming up with stakes
can you reach the P
speak you're mouth co's we are sure what everybodys gonna do
what a dirty work for you
the winning to winning or you choose to loose
when you wanna be just a days news

where can we go from here?
where the fuck can we go from here?
where can we go from here?
where the fuck can we go from here?
where can we go from here?
where the fuck can we go from here?
where can we go from here?
where the fuck can we go from here?

10. Falling

I can't say I've been saved after all of my sessions
Despite having dealt with my faults and depressions
A lesson's been learned though it taught me to listen
To all of the thoughts I've been busy dismissin'
I'm still dealing with feelings of under achieving
And I've always had issues when it comes to believing they say
Time is healing you forgive and forget
But it just doesn't feel like I've gotten there yet

I'm creeping, I'm crawling
I'm screaming, I'm calling
I'm climbing the walls but I'm falling

I've made mistakes and I've learned a few lessons
And I've come to terms with a few strange obsessions
Cos we all have our issues that we need to take care
Of the less appropriate sides we're not always aware of
I crawl back in my shall each time I take a beating
Think positive thoughts is what I keep on repeating
I'm lerning to deal with the cards I've been given
Cos my confidence fails me the further I'm driven

I'm creeping, I'm crawling
I'm screaming, I'm calling
I'm climbing the walls but I'm falling

11. Carnivore

Give me a reason
i give you good advice
coz' we are all reactions
we're thinkin over twice
the public execution is got to be well planed
get yourself the right tools and watch those good events

fast and painless
sharp and stainless
creatures always have to die
fast and painless
hard and shameless
no remorse make surely fry
carnivore until i die

don't think it's over
once the work is done
throw away the skin of bold
and walk away the crumps
invite you're friends
make it up and hope that they can't tell
if no one smells the difference
you know that it's done well

fast and painless
sharp and stainless
creatures always have to die
fast and painless
hard and shameless
no remorse make surely fry
fast and plainless
sharp and stainless
creatures always have to die
carnivore until i die

don't forget to watch the clock
that's a big mistake
the worst of real the demages the last who can escape
we grant some fucking pointless
once it's over done
the last advice i give you
is don't tell anyone

fast and painless
sharp and stainless
creatures always have to die
fast and painless
hard and shameless
no remorse make surely fry
fast and painless
sharp and stainless
creatures always have to die
fast and painless
hard and shameless
no remorse make surely fry
creatures always have to die
