1. Gone Sovereign

No one's laughing now, no one's laughing now
I'm sullen and sated and you can't put a price on me
I won't share this disarray, I won't pull these hands away
I need to be chosen and my God don't pray for me

So scatter all my ashes when I'm dead
And shatter every legend in my head
If only the committed will survive
Is anybody here still left alive?

This is mine

Come no further, you go too far
I'm running 'round in circles once again
If you can't forgive me, I won't take it very hard
But I won't make it easy in the end

So scatter all my ashes when I'm dead
And shatter every legend in my head
If only the contented will survive
Is anybody here still left alive?

This is mine
This is mine
Yeah

So scatter all my ashes when I'm dead
And shatter every legend in my head
If only the committed will survive
Is anybody here still left alive?

This is mine
Mine
Mine
Mine

2. Absolute Zero

The bloody angle, the symmetry
Your cheap adhesive isn't holding me
My mouth is a gun I can shoot, I can show you the truth
And I don't need a reason to lie to you

No pun intended, no punishment
If I offended you, you needed it
Ideas are the bombs in your mind, a fissure in time
If you don't have a weapon you can't have mine

I can bleed if I want to bleed
I can fail if I feel the need
This face is my last confession
This life, it feels like a prison

Oh, I'm not afraid
I'm giving into grievances again
You're looking at an absolute zero
I'm not the devil but I won't be your hero

The catatonic, the sacrilege
Your primadonnas are a privilege
My God has a need to react, it's as simple as that
It's better just to settle than face the facts

I can bleed if I want to bleed
I can fail if I feel the need
This face is my last confession
This life, it feels like a prison

Oh, I'm not afraid
I'm giving into grievances again
You're looking at an absolute zero
I'm not the devil but I won't be your hero

One thing that I can't stand
Is when the minutes fight the second hand
I'll waste a lifetime's worth
Just to cling to one more day

No fucking quarter, no premiums
The world is stuck in delirium
Man is a four-letter word, it's really absurd
The hate isn't fake, it's just inferred

Oh, I'm not afraid
I'm giving into grievances again
I'm down to absolute zero
Another zealot with the weight of the fucking world

Oh, I'm not afraid
And I will let you down as I hold you in
You're looking at an absolute zero
I'm not the devil but I won't be your hero

3. A Rumor Of Skin

You deleted your evidence.
You depleted yourself.
Face down wasn't good enough.
You had to give me your hell.

Not much more inside of me left to lose.
No one hates me quite like you.
Let me show you the proof.

I don't mind my own self-loathing,
and I don't need help from you.
I know I'm lonely,
but what am I supposed to do?

You believe that you're innocent.
You're relieving your guilt.
The Jury seems to be deadlocked.
Look at the drama you built.

Seems like everyone's guaranteed damaged truth.
What makes someone hate like you?
And is there something to prove?

But I don't mind my own self-loathing,
and I don't need help from you.
I know I'm lonely,
but what am I supposed to do?

Oh, I don't mind my own self-loathing,
and I don't need help from you.
(I don't mind my own...)
I know I'm lonely, but what am I supposed to do
(I don't want to know...)
With all my coldest memories of you?
(I won't give my all...)
I know I'm angry... and I don't know need help from you
(I don't want to know...)

4. The Travellers Part 1

I think I'm happy
Mostly happy
On a green autumn day

I'm walking lazy
Barely moving
Settle out and fade away

Seems a life is something more
Than a journey with no end
I just wanna lose it all
And find myself again

I'm on my own
I'm on my own

I don't need a conscience
To tell me how I feel
I don't need these weary eyes
To focus on what to conceal

I don't need anybody
To tell me who I am
Blame it on a broken heart
I'm falling apart again

5. Tired

I'm alive in here
So alive in here
Pulling down a little peace

I'm open wide in here
Smoulderize in here
Saving grace and killing me

You say this only makes me incomplete
I'm cancelled out and rendered obsolete
Tell the mad chameleon he's not welcome anymore
I know what I'm looking for

Somewhere close
Somewhere safe
Somewhere I know
I know I'll never live in chains
The one is now aware
So stay away from me
I'm just too young to care

I can see in here
And I can feel in here
Comatose with common sense

I take my time in here
Somebody get me out of here
What am I so against

I just wanna watch the whole world burn
Lost a million times and I won't learn
Show me someone innocent
I'll show you there's no proof
I may be gone but I'm no fool

I'm not close
I'm not safe
I don't know
Don't know
Am I better off in chains
The one is not aware
So stay away from me
I'm just too young to care

I need
Somewhere close
Somewhere safe
Somewhere I know
I know I'll never live in chains
The one is now aware
So stay away from me
I'm just too young to care

Too young to care

6. RU486

(This record is an unseen enemy of the human mind)
(You are going to relax)
(Use it regularly, Bring your mind to follow the suggestions to an unpleasant degree)
(You are going to relax)
(The mind needs nervous tension. And now we shall begin)
(Listen only to my voice)
(One word of caution)
(RU486)

The pity turns complacent
The fear gives it a rush
Nobody needs a hopeless romantic
Who never sleeps, and dreams too much
The fear is unrepentant
That means there's nowhere to hide
So draw a breath, and kill my Judas
You'll never know until you come inside!

You are defeatist
Forsaken
A jewel in the crown of the sun
Never repeated, or taken
I wouldn't change a fucking thing that you've done

(Going Down Alive)
(Going Down Alive)
Assume your nemesis!
(Going Down Alive)
(Going Down Alive)
Are you 486?

Another weak contender
Another pound of the nails
The future lies in perfect condition
You can do it if you're built to fail!
I only know solutions
I've never thought of the end
Someone else is closing the casket
Another hungry mouth to defend!

You are defeated
Forbidden
A name at the top of the list
Never related, or stricken
I wouldn't change a fucking thing about this

(Going Down Alive)
(Going Down Alive)
Assume your nemesis!
(Going Down Alive)
(Going Down Alive)
Are you 486?

(YOU!)
Projector
(WON'T!)
Suspector
(FEEL!)
The victor, it's only who is left to say
(YOU!)
Contractor
(DON'T!)
Detractor
(SEE!)
The answer! It's screaming what you'll never say!

We are demeaning!
Forever!
A world that will never exist
Always repeating, or severed!
We wouldn't change a fucking thing about this!

(Going Down Alive)
(Going Down Alive)
Assume your nemesis!
(Going Down Alive)
(Going Down Alive)
Are you 486?

(Going Down Alive)
(Going Down Alive)
Assume your nemesis!
(Going Down Alive)
(Going Down Alive)
Are you 486?!

7. My Name Is Allen

Hope I'm not hopeless
Gathering focus
I have no pity for a prison that died

Don't even say it
Consider the source again
Your indecision let me make up my mind

The normally vacant
Will make you contagious
What does it matter when the human is gone

Before you bother
I knew I'd mastered this
So take your time
'Cause I know what went wrong

There's only room in here for one
And I've decided it's not you
I had to do what must be done
You would have done it too

Suddenly I'm feeling strange
I know you want it
Tell me you will never change
I know you wanted to

Nobody's out there
You're getting us nowhere
I just remember why I put you through hell

You might be different
But I didn't ask for this
You know you're crazy when you're talking to yourself

There's only room in here for one
And I've decided it's not you
I had to do what must be done
You would have done it too

Suddenly I'm feeling strange
I know you want it
Tell me you will never change
I know you wanted to
I know you wanted to
I know you wanted to
I know you wanted to

Why delay or complicate
The gravity of my persuasion
Look into that part of you
I am you without hesitation

There's only room in here for one
And I've decided it's not you
I had to do what must be done
You would have done it too

Suddenly I'm feeling strange
I know you want it
Tell me you will never change
I know you wanted to
I know you wanted to
I know you wanted to
I know you wanted to

8. Taciturn

I'd cross the sea to you
I've left myself deserted here again
I'd cross the sea to you
My pieces are too broken now to mend

In the middle
Under a cold black sky
The sun will only burn for you and I
In the moment..
Before I lose my mind
These hours don't mean anything this time..

Give me a sign
Show me the line
Maybe tonight
I'll tell you everything

Give me a sign
Show me the line
Maybe tonight
I'll tell you everything

I'd cross the world for you
My reasons have no reason to remain
I'd cross the world for you
I don't know what I'm doing wrong but I can't stay the same

In the middle
Under a clear blue sky
The sun can only burn for you and I
In the moment
Before I lose my mind
These hours don't mean anything this time..

Give me a sign
Show me the line
Maybe tonight
I'll tell you everything

Give me a sign
Show me the line
Maybe tonight
I'll tell you everything

Give me a sign
Show me the line
Maybe tonight
I'll tell you everything

Give me a sign
Show me the line
Maybe tonight
I'll tell you everything

Everything
Oh...

9. Influence Of A Drowsy God

All those times before
When I was just another face
Among the others
Keeping secrets to save myself
I could blend into the background
And savor the unknown
I could practice preservation
And hide behind this shell

But my god's are released
On a world that is falling down
My call is a beast that will not
Let me give up now
I know I'm all or nothing

Giving my elation
A little something to relax
All the others indecisions
Will make me go mad
There's no time to hear the arguments
Or simply close my eyes
I believe this confrontation
Deserves my full attention

When my god's are released on a world
That is falling down
My call is a beast that will not
Let me give up now
I know I'm all or nothing
I'm all or nothing

I can see why nothing has happened
Promises strain
I'm writing this down as I run
Take all the examples
And what have I learned?
Nothing can heal you
And everything burns

My god's are released on a world
That is falling down
My call is a beast that will not
Let me give up now
I'm all or nothing
I'm all or nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing

10. The Travellers Part 2

My body's broken, no words spoken
Am I finally at the end?
This conflagration is my contagion
Holds me down
Yet again

Maybe life is nothing more
Than a curse inside the blessed
I will fight this bloody war with every strangled breath

I'm on my own
I'm on my own

I don't need a conscience
I don't need to feel
I don't need these weary eyes
Tell me what I know is real

I don't need anybody to tell me who I am
Blame it on the broken heart
I'm falling apart again

11. Last Of The Real

Where's my crucifix?
Where are my cigarettes?
This hypodermic melancholy
Is not enough
Scratch this credit fraud
This hate is all I've got
Just feed me whiskey and you'll feel me
The time has come
Imagine all the people
Belittled and abused
You want a revolution
I want the fucking truth

No voodoo ordeal
Can stop me now
I'll tear this place apart
Til you give me what I want
The last of the real
Can't stop me now
I'll tear this place apart
Til you give me what I want

Hundred dollar bills
And quiet little kills
Think you can hold me?
It'll take an army
I'm everywhere
You press into the flesh
Clich?s are beat to death
Is this the best you can come up with?
Feels like despair
I made the news today
Front page above the fold
You tell me God is dead
I'll show you Hell has come

No voodoo ordeal
Can stop me now
I'll tear this place apart
Til you give me what I want
The last of the real
Can't stop me now
I'll tear this place apart
Til you give me what I want
Til you give me what I want
Til you give me what I want

Bow your fucking head
Desecrate your dead
Can't you see you're laying all the lies, get it
Close your eyes for all your fucking sin
Your talk is doubt
Remember how you wanted to be born again?
Well you were forced with this

No voodoo ordeal
Can stop me now
I'll tear this place apart
Til you give me what I want
The last of the real
Can't stop me now
I'll tear this place apart
Til you give me what I want
Until you give me what I want
You can't stop me now
You can't stop me now
