1. In Vertigo
A little too big and a little too small
The thing is that life isn't one size fits all
So take a sip and a couple of bites
And lay back to feast with your own eyes
Down down down the rabbit hole!
Wake up to see the tiny world at your feet
A giant surprise, yours alone to meet
There's no way up, so don't wallow in fear
No need to drown in a pool of your own tears
Down down down the rabbit hole!
Down!
(She's falling! She's falling down!)
How did I wind up here?
With this strange crowd?
When will my feet hit the ground?
(She's falling! She's falling down!)
How did I wind up here?
In this strange land
When will I find...
Time and time again
We seek the answers
Time and time again
We fail to question
Time and time again
We go down, down, down...
Now let's just skip straight to chapter eight
She's tired of your so-called friendly debate
The riddles and tales you present to appease
Will be of no help when she's down to her knees
Down down down the rabbit hole!
Through trial and error one must learn to accept
But that's not the case, here, we're taught to forget
Don't you think for a second that the rules are dead
What's that my dear? Off with her head!
Down down down the rabbit hole!
Down!
(She's falling! She's falling down!)
How did I wind up here?
With this strange crowd?
When will my feet hit the ground?
(She's falling! She's falling down!)
How did I wind up here?
In this strange land
When will I find...
How did we get here to a place where the notes don't sound?
How did we get here to a place that stands alone in a crowd?
Take me back to that field that I've never been
Take me back to that sky that I've never seen
How did we let the sound slip away?
How did we let the sound slip away?
2. As One We Survive
LIVE!
The cold hand of the past emerges
from the graves of our ancestors
Eyes open!
To your feet
Another day of sight unseen
Take back the night
And let life release
This slow death will not cease
Just when you thought
That your end was near
Live for one more night!
Just when you thought
That your end had come
Live for one more night!
LIVE!
LIVE for one more night!
Watch now!
The sun set before it rose
The moon never once revealed its face
It?s an icy path to a stone walled city
Just when you thought
That your end was near
Live for one more night!
Just when you thought
That your end had come
Live for one more night!
We suffer as ONE
As ONE we survive
3. The Gift Of Silence
I've had all I can take
To hate for hate's sake
Tearing down what you cannot create
The time has come to be put to sleep
A gift of silence for a herd of sheep
Nature is red in tooth and claw
Did they tell you you must be
The first without a flaw?
Nature is red in tooth and in claw
LET IT RAIN, rain all over me
Till the water will no longer bleed
Oh, let it rain so you will see
What it's like, what it's like to be FREE
I stand before dangerous territory
Staring the enemy right in the eye
If only I could cross the line
Seize control, don't let the currents divide
The pattern is equal
For those who play the game
The pattern is flawless
Don't you dare deny the blame
LET IT RAIN, rain all over me
Till the water will no longer bleed
Oh, let it rain so you will see
What it's like, what it's like to be FREE
Let it rain, pour it all over me
I WILL SHED MY SCALES INTO THE SEA!
Let it rain, pour it all over me
I will sit there and let you repeat
Till your words WILL NO LONGER BLEED!
LET IT RAIN, rain all over me
Till the water will no longer bleed
Oh, let it rain so you will see
What it's like, what it's like to be FREE
4. Blood As My Guide
I've been kicked around and dragged through the mud
No tales of my glory will ever be sung
The fear we all feel is more than just real
It's a blinding emotion we must forge into steel
My brothers and sisters we're the true underdogs
What good is this land if one day it's all gone?
Together we trudge on this blood drenched soil
And together we face – WE FACE this mortal coil
We will survive!
At the end of the tunnel there's always a light
WE WILL SURVIVE!
If we stay strong we can win any fight
Win any fight!
They prey on the sheep for the sheep are weak
And the watchdogs protect us from restless sleep
But the wolves and the dogs are few
And we are many
Survival's an instinct we forget we carry
So let us awake to the truth!
We will survive!
At the end of the tunnel there's always a light
We will survive!
If we stay strong we can win any fight
Με οδηγό το αίμα
Ανοίξατε – ανοίξατε
τις πύλες
Για να μπουν οι ψυχές
στον κάτω
Στον κάτω τον κόσμο
Οι ψυχές μας....
Σήμερα κλαίνε οι
ουρανοί
Σήμερα το αίμα – το
αίμα πέφτει σαν βροχή
Σαν σήμερα
γεννηθήκαμε
Και απόψε θα
πεθάνουμε
5. Mr. Cold
Tonight, I met a grinning man in a dark suit
A glowing reflection, to my surprise
Were vibrant orbs in place of eyes
His mouth never twitched as he spoke to me
Meaning no harm, he was passing by
In hollow times we'd meet...
If you ever meet the man named cold
You will feel the chill STRAIGHT TO YOUR BONES
If you ever stare into the eyes of the Mothman
You will feel their FRIGHT
It's as if he knew
One day they'd wake and draw pictures of his face
It's as if he knew
One day they'd drive up and down this place
In hopes of looking into his mind
We eat, we breathe, we sleep, we bleed
We eat, we breathe, we sleep, we bleed
We bleed EVEN AS YOU DO... we bleed
We will see you again... in time!
The fascination passed so we dug the grave
And along we buried all the strange
The weirdly eloquent answers to life's mysteries
We eat, we breathe, we sleep, we bleed
Today is the day the questions stopped
Even the ghosts are too, they're TOO SCARED TO TALK
Today is the day I thought would never come
HOW STRANGE IT FEELS now that the weird is all gone
6. Dust To Dust
I had to go blind to truly see
What was right in front of me
I'm a fool for thinking there was a shot
The game was rigged right from the start
Still I need to play, to go along
See KARMA'S A BITCH
But she's not YOUR DOG
When you least expect
She'll turn around...
When you look the other way
She's bound to bite!
All it takes is a second
To fall in a trap
Absent choice
I'm on a one-way path
Racing to the break
I will leave nothing behind
Take your needles
Stick them in your arms
Pull my limbs
till you tear them apart
BREAK MY BONES
Hell, CRUSH MY SKULL
You'll never take my soul
Take my life but
You'll never take my soul!
Woke up to flies buzzing around
To the warm touch of your blood
And a body...?!
Your body indeed
The disease is spreading, tick tock
Is there still enough time to play God?
Racing to the break
I will leave nothing behind
Ashes cross my path
I ignite! I ignite!
Take your needles
Stick them in your arms
Pull my limbs
till you tear them apart
BREAK MY BONES
Hell, CRUSH MY SKULL
You'll never take my soul
Take my life but
You'll never take my soul!
7. A Devil Made Me Do It
Catch me if you can
I am faster than your mind can fathom
Armed with the element of surprise
I slither through the corners of your eyes
Pull me inside your wildest dreams
I will follow – I will follow
In the wreckage of what I perceive
I will follow – I will follow
I'll take your unwillingness
And MAKE YOU CRUMBLE!
I'll take your hesitance
And WATCH YOU BURN!
Dancing blindly through all the madness
What if I, if I take a little peek?
Come out – Come out wherever you are
Trust me you'll enjoy it
There's nothing quite like the sweet taste of impulsion
Let your inhibition take a back seat
Just enjoy the ride
Come out – Come out wherever you are
Pull me inside your wildest dreams
I will follow – I will follow
In the wreckage of what I perceive
I will follow – I will follow
I'll take your unwillingness
And MAKE YOU CRUMBLE!
I'll take your hesitance
And WATCH YOU BURN!
8. The Killing I
You know I need to make good time
So OPEN WIDE!
The main course is a PIECE of mind
I can't shake this nerve of mine
You know I got the EVIL EYE
To satisfy my dark desires
I'm handcuffed to your filthy grind
Paralyzed
I'm always fighting with a
PAIR OF EYES
So put em up, come and get it!
I'm on the loose
Bloody knife in my hand!
ON THE LOOSE
And I'm coming for you!
Sink your teeth in the pain
So you can feel its bite
All you need to consume
To fill the hole inside
All this time you're wasting to change my ways
You better run, cause I'm livid!
Hold a mirror to your face
And take a look before it's gone
I'm sick of all your preaching
It's time to bite your tongue
I'm on the loose
Bloody knife in my hand!
ON THE LOOSE
And I'm coming for you!
Sink your teeth in the pain
So you can feel its bite
All you need to consume
To fill the hole inside
Sink your teeth in the prize
So you can get a taste
All you need to consume
To make your HEART RACE
SINK YOUR TEETH IN THE PAIN
So you can feel its bite
All you need to consume
To fill the hole inside
Sink your teeth in the pain to feel the bite!
Feel the bite! Feel the bite!
9. Orphans
Knock, knock is someone at the door?
There's no fairytale to read here
No DAMSELS in distress
Just two sisters that were caught in a mess
There's no wicked stepmother or FAIRY godmother
No unpleasant day waiting to be saved
Knock, knock is someone at the door?
Hush little girl, we can wait a little more
The demons you fear crawling in the night
I wouldn't let you anywhere near their sight
Hush little girl, don't say a word
Sister's gonna get you a MOCKINGBIRD
Hush little girl, don't say a word
Sister's gonna – gonna take care of you
Knock, knock is someone at the door?
I have always lived in this castle
No one will come knocking
I HAVE ALWAYS lived in this castle
No one will come knocking
I have always LIVED IN THIS CASTLE
No one will come knocking on my door
Hush now little girl, for there's nothing left to fear
Open your eyes, you will see things crystal clear
There's no magical bean that'll send you towards the skies
Just a rusty SKELETON ladder you will have to climb
Trust me little sister, you are stronger than you realize
So go on it is time
Time for you to open your eyes!
As we go through our lives pretending
There's no difference IN WHAT WE DECIDE
As we go through our lives pretending
There's no difference IN WRONG OR RIGHT
Knock, knock is someone at the door?
I have always lived in this castle
No one will come knocking
I HAVE ALWAYS lived in this castle
No one will come knocking
I have always LIVED IN THIS CASTLE
No one will come knocking on my door –NOT ANYMORE-
No one, no one will come knocking –NOT ANYMORE
NO ONE WILL COME KNOCKING ON MY DOOR
10. Burn It All Down
I made sure, my dear
I made sure of it, my dear
Made sure of the life we'd be living here
While you thought I was VULNERABLE and WEAK
I made sure they'd never again speak!
A drop was all it took, a drop ever so sweet
And down they FELL, their fate to meet
You see, my dear, you were always my favorite
So I made sure, I MADE SURE they would savor it
For no matter what crimes were revealed
Every man deserves a final meal
Burn it, BURN IT all down
So at last we will see the sky
Burn it, BURN IT to the ground
So at last you will know
YOU WILL KNOW WHY
I will keep you safe
I will show you the way
They treated me like the SCUM of the Earth
While dear old Mother questioned why she gave birth
You see, I really wasn't given a choice
I had to give my thoughts a LITERAL voice
Come out to meet me by the tree
I'll give your eyes so much more to see
Burn it... burn it all down
Burn it, BURN IT all down
So at last we will see the sky
Burn it, BURN IT to the ground
So at last you will know
YOU WILL KNOW WHY
