2. Keep Away From Me

Whatever you do
Just do it away from me
Whoever you want to be
Just be it away from me
Wherever you go
Just go there away from me
Whoever you are now
Just stay clear away from me

These shackles that hold us all here
This burden so heavy it's not clear
Look into your eyes, it's just a vacant stare
Looking back I can tell you never cared

Whatever you do
Just do it away from me
Whoever you want to be
Just be it away from me
Wherever you go
Just go there away from me
Whoever you are now
Just stay clear away from me

The reluctant and broken road
Beaten down and bruised
Deaf, dumb and blind
From all the endless abuse

Whatever you do
Just do it away from me
Whoever you want to be
Just be it away from me
Wherever you go
Just go there away from me
Whoever you are now
Just stay clear away
Just stay clear away from me

3. Vengeance Is Clear

I feel so trapped in my own head,
I replay everything that you've said.
I can't escape this desperate feeling.
Overwhelmed by my consuming dread.
I'm looking in the mirror, eyes full of doubt and fear,
no time to settle scores, so no more.
Thy will is done, no explanation,
no rhyme or reason, no more.

DO OR DIE WHAT'S DONE IS DONE.
DO OR DIE VENGEANCE IS CLEAR!

A fucking nod to the guilty, undone by their woes.
Don't torture yourself by the seeds they sew.
It's an end to the story, a chapter to be closed,
I'm locked up in a vault I'm loyal to a fault.
All this life I've waited through the rain,
never to feel this weight again.
I swore to the thunder, I summoned the rain.
I prayed down in the dirt, never to fall again.
Under the skin we're all just blood and bone
I've hit the walls so many times
can't remember them all.

DO OR DIE WHAT'S DONE IS DONE.
DO OR DIE VENGEANCE IS CLEAR!

All this life I've swore to the thunder.
All this life I prayed to the rain.
All this life I've crawled down in the fucking dirt.
All this life I swore to the thunder.
All this life I summon the rain.
All this life I prayed down in the fucking dirt
never to fall again.

DO OR DIE WHAT'S DONE IS DONE.
DO OR DIE VENGEANCE IS CLEAR!
SO CLEAR!
DO OR DIE WHAT'S DONE IS DONE.
DO OR DIE VENGEANCE IS CLEAR!
SO CLEAR!

4. Nest Of Vipers

Let me ask you!
If I died for you,
Would you die for me?
What do the cards say?
On this cold dank day!
I've spread the deck so many times,
I've watched the lamps burn bright,
I've spread the deck so many times,
I've seen their insight!
All the signs told me all this time all this time...

THE KINGS SWORN MEN MAKE PERFECT LIARS.
SHE SLEEPS WITH BONES BESIDE HER...
THEY FOUND HER BODY IN A NEST OF VIPERS!

How many miles to Babylon I've been back and around the sun...
Riding in the hands of gods, To spill the wine and worship dogs!
I've spread the deck out so many times,
I've watched the lamps burn bright.
All the signs told me, this time...

THE KINGS SWORN MEN MAKE PERFECT LIARS,
THEY FOUND HER BODY IN A NEST OF VIPERS!
SHE SLEEPS WITH BONES BESIDE HER.....
THEY FOUND HER BODY IN A NEST OF VIPERS,
IN A NEST OF VIPERS!

Heir to the throne!
Wings spread spitting fire!
Heavy is the crown that weights down the desire!
If I die for you would you die for me?

THE KINGS SWORN MEN MAKE PERFECT LIARS,
IF I DIE FOR YOU WOULD YOU DIE FOR ME?
THEY FOUND HER BODY IN A NEST OF VIPERS,
IF I DIE FOR YOU WOULD YOU DIE FOR...
SHE SLEEPS WITH BONES BESIDE HER,
IF I DIE FOR YOU WOULD YOU DIE FOR ME,
THEY FOUND HER BODY IN A NEST OF VIPERS...
IN A NEST OF VIPERS!
IF I DIE FOR YOU WOULD YOU DIE FOR ME!?

5. Iona

Sick and twisted,
She stands with a lions roar, Leaves you breathless!
Down and out, but never counted, so count her in!
Doomed and haunted, a vicious midnight stare,
the weight so heavy!
Cloaked in black, with a vicious midnight stare,
she leaves you breathless!
Everyone knows death walks on these roads,
everyone knows there's sights unseen.

SHE CARRIES A BLACK ROSE,
SHE CARRIES A BLACK ROSE!
Effigy from the story closed,
SHE CARRIES A BLACK ROSE!

Sweet Iona she's so bloodthirsty all men better beware.
Not her gaze,
her fucking violent stare, she leaves you breathless!
Everyone knows death walks on these roads,
everyone knows there's sights unseen.
Everyone knows death walks on these roads,
everyone knows!

SHE CARRIES A BLACK ROSE,
SHE CARRIES A BLACK ROSE!
Effigy from the story closed,
SHE CARRIES A BLACK ROSE!

Have you ever been in love?
Love is a killer!
Have you ever been in love?
Love is a killer!
Everyone knows, everyone knows love is a killer!

SHE CARRIES A BLACK ROSE,
SHE CARRIES A BLACK ROSE!
Effigy from the story closed,
SHE CARRIES A BLACK ROSE!

6. Wishing

Nothing is what it seems.
In the hanging garden, nothing is what it seems.
And no one is pardoned for the sins they receive.
And if you take my hand from that very lost place,
I will lead you through darkness
to that very safe space.

WISHING, YOU WERE HERE.
WISHING, YOU WERE HERE.
I'M WISHING YOU WERE HERE,
YOU WERE HERE RIGHT NOW!

We're all filled with dread.
When the universe crumbles
and we're all filled with dread.
As humanity stumbles
and we're all left for dead.
Your god does not dwell here
so break all your mirrors.
We will ride to tomorrow and save all your fears.

WISHING, YOU WERE HERE.
WISHING, YOU WERE HERE.
I'M WISHING YOU WERE HERE,
YOU WERE HERE RIGHT NOW!

In the hanging garden where the dead flowers bloom.
It's the root of all evil, filled with death rot and gloom
and if you take my hand from that very lost place.
I will lead you through darkness to that very safe space.

WISHING, YOU WERE HERE.
WISHING, YOU WERE HERE.
I'M WISHING YOU WERE HERE,
YOU WERE HERE RIGHT NOW!
I'M WISHING YOU WERE HERE,
YOU WERE HERE RIGHT NOW!
WITH ME!

7. You Give Me A Reason To Drink

Don't need your validation. Just keep your approval.
Don't need your invite. It's all right by me!
Abusing. Confusing.
I'm only refusing to let this effect ME anyhow!
Nobody gets me here. I'm a loner...
Always choosing to be out of place.

YOU GIVE ME A REASON TO DRINK.
KEEP TURNING THIS WATER TO WINE.
YOU GIVE ME A REASON TO DRINK.
KEEP ON TURNING THIS WATER INTO WINE.

Don't send your condolence, just keep your opinion,
don't need your so sorry. It's all fine by me! It's Abusing.
So confusing. I'm refusing,
To let this define me anyhow!
Nobody gets me here. I'm a loner...
Always choosing to be out of place.

YOU GIVE ME A REASON TO DRINK.
KEEP TURNING THIS WATER TO WINE.
YOU GIVE ME A REASON TO DRINK.
KEEP ON TURNING THIS WATER INTO WINE.

Hanging cold corpses off the holy highway.
Leaving dead bodies in life's wake!
So drained from seeking sympathy,
from a dead hearted society.
That could care less about humanity anyway!

YOU GIVE ME A REASON TO DRINK.
KEEP TURNING THIS WATER TO WINE.
YOU GIVE ME A REASON TO DRINK.
KEEP ON TURNING THIS WATER INTO WINE.

8. Witches

Pony up there's a price to pay
For the knowledge of tomorrow and your questions today.
Pony up there's a price to pay
When You throw the bones thrice and they come your way.
You've come seeking what doesn't exist,
As you fall to the bottom of your own abyss.
You've come seeking what doesn't exist,
As you look to the signs all this time dismissed.
So bite your tongue,
Until it bleeds from all that's wrong.
Cut the cord, as we run, Do what you will, Thy will is done!

WITCHES, CONJURE, ALL THIS NIGHT I SUMMON WITH SIGILS!
WITCHES, WITH POWER, AS THEY OFFER ETERNAL VIGIL, WITCHES!

End of story cause this chapter is closed,
There could be another outcome
That just isn't disclosed.
End of story as it all draws near
the water will be muddy and it never will be clear
You've come seeking what doesn't exist
As you fall to the bottom of your own abyss.
You've come seeking what doesn't exist
As you look to the signs all this time dismissed!
So... bite your tongue
Until it bleeds from all that's wrong,
Cut the cord, as we run, Do what you will. Thy will is done!

WITCHES, CONJURE, ALL THIS NIGHT I SUMMON WITH SIGILS.
WITCHES WITH POWER, AS THEY OFFER ETERNAL VIGIL.
WITCHES, CONJURE, ALL THIS NIGHT I SUMMON WITH SIGILS,
WITCHES... POWER!

This blood runs cold, beneath my skin.
These sorrow days, has reached its end!
Pony up! Price to pay!

WITCHES, CONJURE, ALL THIS NIGHT I SUMMON WITH SIGILS.
WITCHES, WITH A POWER, AS THEY OFFER ETERNAL VIGIL.
WITCHES, CONJURE, ALL THIS NIGHT I SUMMON WITH SIGILS,
WITCHES WITH POWER!

9. Dealing With Demons

We're gonna be out all night,
'til the morning comes,
'til the early light, that's right!
After the witching hour and the stroke of three
you're dead to me, no memory!
I'm in a don't fuck with me mood once again,
nothing left to lose nothing to win.
I'll never cut and run, just too far gone,
I'll never cut and run! This city is full of disease,
leave your body and blood on the streets.

TWELFTH HOUR DEALING WITH DEMONS.
LOOKING FOR MY WAY TO APPEASE THEM.
LEFT BESIDE, LOST CASE,
AROUND HERE WE CALL YOU TWO FACED!

There's a new destination, though I'm too far gone,
Guess I'll tag along there's nothing wrong!
It's a Hollywood night a fucking funeral flight,
let's not lose sight, wet the appetite.
Nothing left to lose nothing left to win.
I'm in a don't fuck with me mood once again.
I'll never cut and run, just too far gone,
I'll never cut and run! This city is full of disease,
leave your body in blood on the streets.

TWELFTH HOUR DEALING WITH DEMONS.
LOOKING FOR MY WAY TO APPEASE THEM.
LEFT BESIDE, LOST CASE,
AROUND HERE WE CALL YOU TWO FACED!

There seems to be some misunderstanding.
If you're on the fence I'll knock you off.
There seems to be some misunderstanding,
you play both sides and it's getting fucking old.

TWELFTH HOUR DEALING WITH DEMONS.
LOOKING FOR MY WAY TO APPEASE THEM.
LEFT BESIDE, LOST CASE,
AROUND HERE WE CALL YOU TWO FACED!
AROUND HERE WE CALL YOU TWO FACED!

10. The Damned Don't Cry

Awake, the world forever asleep.
Promises, that no one ever keeps.
Fighting for my own sanity.
At the break of each and every day.
Fuck, wake up, wake up, wake up, stains on my soul.
Wake up, wake up, wake up, just remember.

THE DAMNED DON'T CRY.
WE'RE BORN TO DIG AND DIE.
TO PLAY THROUGH HIGHER STAKES.
SURVIVE THROUGH DIRE STRAIGHTS.

Seen, with mine own eyes.
Held on, through the demise.
Letting go, of all the sadness and the woe.
Regrets, regrets, regrets, stains on my soul.
Regrets, regrets, regrets, just remember.

THE DAMNED DON'T CRY.
WE'RE BORN TO DIG AND DIE.
TO PLAY THROUGH HIGHER STAKES.
SURVIVE THROUGH DIRE STRAIGHTS.
THE DAMNED DON'T CRY.
WE'RE BORN TO SEEK WHY.
TO PLAY THROUGH HIGHER STAKES.
SURVIVE THROUGH DIRE STRAIGHTS.

Regrets, regrets, regrets.

THE DAMNED DON'T CRY.
WE'RE BORN TO DIG AND DIE.
TO PLAY THROUGH HIGHER STAKES.
SURVIVE THROUGH DIRE STRAIGHTS.
THE DAMNED DON'T CRY.
WE'RE BORN TO SEEK WHY.
TO PLAY THROUGH HIGHER STAKES.
SURVIVE THROUGH DIRE STRAIGHTS.

11. Scars Me Forever

You smile and it scars me forever,
you live life like a wild god.
You said these ties would never sever!
You said never never.
Sit in my room and I think of the future,
sit in my room and I think of the past.
Going down the rabbit hole, try to hold on, but
I'm sliding down fast. Fast!

WHEN EVERYTHING IS NOT WHAT IT SEEMS TO BE,
I GOT TO PACK UP MY DAYS AND NIGHTS,
WALK AWAY AND LEAVE!

All good must now just come to an end,
I'm so sick of your scene and your friends.
Intuition makes it so easy
to call it quits and set this free.
Sit in my room and I think of the future,
sit in my room and I think of the past.
Going down rabbit hole, I try to hold on,
but I'm sliding down fast. Fast!

WHEN EVERYTHING IS NOT WHAT IT SEEMS TO BE,
I GOT TO PACK UP MY DAYS AND NIGHTS,
WALK AWAY AND LEAVE!

Would it be so easy for you to watch me go?
So walk out that door forever,
we said never, never! Never!
You laugh and it scars me forever, don't leave so easily.
You said these ties would never sever, you said never, Never!

WHEN EVERYTHING IS NOT WHAT IT SEEMS TO BE,
I GOT TO PACK UP MY DAYS AND NIGHTS,
WALK AWAY, AND LEAVE!
WHEN EVERYTHING IS NOT WHAT IT SEEMS TO BE,
I GOT TO PACK UP MY DAYS AND NIGHTS,
WALK AWAY, WALK AWAY AND LEAVE!
