raise your eyes to the churning sky the light that burns your dreams a crusade they manufactured in a house where no one sleeps we’ve all seen the killer staring through the mirror we’ve portrayed the victim buying our mutilation we are the worms our freedom has now become our disease one nation under filth the can’t have my hands and my heart is pumping fucking blood save your mind raise your eyes see this is all that you get your time is now you had your chance kid fall in line born to be slaves until the graveyard becomes home your noose will be a necktie selling flowers to dirt digging graves for the nameless turn their shit into sugar pushing death like it’s painless you don’t want to notice everything’s wrong you’re sitting down while they’re playing the last song your loss will be found faith is fading a dying outlook disillusioned you paid to see the suffering programed by television another channel is all you got left commercialism has made you what you are another soul to save dig a hole for the loneliest mother send the child that she born home in a box hand his gun to the next one in line real american hero you must be dreaming the countdown has begun we’re only moments away the fallout shelter is brimming with death and decay lower your flag and run it all end in five four three two one.

where the fuck were you when the tide rolled in leaving millions dead another slow movie watch it happen watch the old man grin ready to begin his conquest of cashing in the end try to drown your sorry in gasoline you’ve severed your purpose and that’s the way that they want it to be that’s why we’ll all die in vain stocking the ground buried like blisters in mothers face this is hell save yourselves from burning bright judgement day is here you’re not the first one to swallow this shit don’t forget to chew we fucking choke on the air we breathe a genocide of hope and faith it’s alright we’ll tell the children we had no choice consume the blood and the life of every fucking thing black gold strangle hold what a brilliant struggle no one’s fighting back we only watch in amazement while our world turns black watch it happen watch the old man grin dying for his age old conquest divisible in the end because the fact that you’re so distracted has you bind and gone to the point that you don’t remember which side you’re on as they controlled you gave them what you were to take the place of where you’d like to be does it feel like hell the seas are boiling over the city is in flames your children are dying we’ll never be the same look at what we’ve wasted it’s all over no sequels it’s over now this is the end my friends your prayers won’t save you shut up and spread the disease.

all i see is black and white a red distraction from a guiding light drenched in fate too blind to fight you say he calls to you so go on and come on your face is commonplace it’s hard to take with such a salty taste well i can see that you’re bored the way you’re constantly changing your faith whore try to cover your conscience with the wool of history christ is covered in conflict that’s all i need to say you swallow the sermon it makes you feel so pure we’re not gonna stand we’re drowning in shame don’t you every feel that your god left you here to die you only know the things they told you and i’ll bet you really think that there’s a better place in the sky is blasphemy what you can’t face another scar that you just can’t erase is it that you lost your faith you cannot fake it so face it you ain’t gonna live forever you won’t get to see live forever take wat you want from me if what they say is true we’re on a road to hell ever wonder why death’s the only thing they sell they will not let you live your life they think there’s a better place to die for sounds like a fairytale lie death will be the end as you can see it’s all a farce keep your eyes open.

getting away was never so easy who’s laughing now this is the last time i run from a fire you should have been burned at the stake like the whore that you are my arms have held the ugliest truth in disgust and undying contempt my eyes have bled the same you’re choking on words left stale you should have been told you’d fail your runway is a cattle line rot away like thoughts of happiness your innocence is gone my penance was holding on to a worthless salvation you sold yourself an empty design in time you’ll beg for damnation you’ll want it now you’ll suffer the sorrow and you’ll say that i’m to blame how could someone be so vain you’re so guilty you look surprised what did you think death would look like how am i to blame for your callousness faith torn away like you childhood her flowers have died the pony is a fake our rainbow turned black and fell from the sky the princess missed the stage i’ll be dying for the rest of my life you’ll be sucking it up for a while like the leech you are you’ll be there to get what you can you better close your eyes try to remember the last time you looked your best you should have been burned at the fucking stake you can rot in hell you fucking whore.

tear it open cut if off stitch it up each incision covers your regret they won’t burn the beautiful leave it here or take it to the morgue these eyes don’t look like much this smile is failing again these scars have got a lot to say but they’re bound and gagged look and see you may not be quite as beautiful as you’d like to be it’s hard faking perfection if it’s not right get out the glass it doesn’t hurt you to be so vile go for the throat you do it with style you play the part emulate someone in lavender and lace so you can be a shining star in a sky of shit so envy well we all need someone to validate our flaws and our actions a silent partner that won’t impede your progress so no one remembers the way you were i know i have said this before you lust yourself with star struck eyes again and again this is war how sick of this face are you just end it all now get your gun don’t forget to smile kill what the knife won’t take away to stand and take your place among those who’s faces aren’t just skin and bones a dead masquerade we dance to decay until we’re left alone you’d cut yourselves to feel anything like a big star bury every celebrity we don’t want them and we won’t care.

frozen in time as white as the snow i fell it was beautiful and i’m sorry your grace is disgusting the way you part your lips so full of shit and i don’t want to be saved i’m learning you fake what you can’t give and tie the rest to your face it’s how you live and i watched you change look at me what went wrong i lost myself and found regret and he became my only friend you cover yourself up in denial he’ll raise again you wanted glamour and i hope you got a good look you had the real thing you watched it leaving i let it die this won’t come again the doors slam shut no second chance the first time was when you should have learned the last time was the last time again can’t keep it down he’ll rise again up from the floor he’ll rise again look away a blinking eye a beating heart the seconds that we waste when judgement is a parasite cancer is your faith and when you look into his eyes lies you wanted glamour and i hope you got a good look you had the real thing you watched it leaving i let it die this won’t come again stop spinning around it’s time to dance with empty hands you try to gain control and lose your breath you tie it to your face tell yourself that it’s big time stuff.
