Show me the way
Sweet Mary Jane
Don't let it go
To default
To default
To default
It's a prison of voices
Oblivion of all ideas
Virtual Anarchy
Anarchy Anarchy
You trying to kill me?
You trying to kill me?
Suicidal hornets
They will cover all of your light
I'm the fire on your family crest
I'm important to your quest
I don't know
Hell no
My little girl
If I where you
I'd open a door
Different ways
for us to roll
Learn your lines
Be ready
And we'll define the martir
Into the night
We will all be reborn
Are you ready my love
Forget it
Do it
Do it fast
Into the night

Suffocate on a baby’s breath
Light a candle on your own death
Fight the power to lose your head
Either way the lies are fed
Hard enough to think you re not alone
No words to say whats done is done
Hard enough to be out there on your own
A path lies ahead, a dying tree to waste your breath
Damage done how can it mend
When war remains a children’s play
Noone unites, everyone hates
Justifying the rise of the apes
Hard enough to think you re not alone
No words to say whats done is done
Hard enough to be out there on your own
A path lies ahead, the great unknown
Suffocate,
Permanate,
Hold that breath
Justifying death
Hard enough to think you re not alone
No words to say whats done is done
Hard enough to be out there on your own
A path lies ahead, the great unknown

Try higher, try hard
Spin yourself like spinning top
Stay hungry, walking tall
Until you absorb and understand
Try harder, take your time
Bulletproof and fireproof
Always a wall, always a line
To climb above and seek the truth
It’s calling me to testify
It’s calling me to amplify
It’s calling me to testify
It’s calling me to amplify
Always a waterfall
Tries to drown you down
Always a waterfall
Wears you a wave for crown
Breathe in
Breathe out
Swim until you find your shore
Life’s fatal, life’s raw
You can’t play and stay safe
Life’s pain, broken bones
There’s no life beneath your prays
Try harder, hurry up
My feet brought me to this town
There is dust on every roof
Let the rain come down
It’s calling me to testify
It’s calling me to amplify
It’s calling me to testify
It’s calling me to amplify
Always a waterfall
Tries to drown you down
Always a waterfall
Wears you a wave for crown
Breathe in
Breathe out
Swim until you find your shore

Empty glass stained with your lipstick
The TV is puking some random chick flick
Miles is playing a song about Spain
I’m in the mood for a small dose of pain
Tiny light, like a butterfly
Ashes on the sheets
Who will sing me a lullaby
When I’m down and I’m weak (when I hate that I’m weak)
Would you show me the reasons?
Would you like to try?
I will summon my demons
we will join them and fly
Now it’s time for Billie to sing the blues
About a Blue Moon, a sentimental bruise
And she goes on about some hanging strange fruit
The fire water still burns as I shoot
And now the whiskey keeps twisting my blood
The carpet’s wet as you crawl through the mud
We’re slow dancing again through the rain
I could use just a little more pain
Save me now, give those reasons and show me how
How to escape from myself

They were looking out for us
They’re looking after us
But we’ll never find a way out
there's no need for that
They were looking out for us
They’re looking after us
But we’ll never find a way out
Better ride the wave
Seeing the head light, the fear taking over
Figure a way out before it is over
Seeing the head light and the fear’s taking over
Gotta figure a way out before it is over
If you think you’ll run then it’s over
If you think you'll stray then it's over
Thinking, overthinking won't save you this time
I'm falling over and over again
How can they say they want me to give up?
I’m falling over and over again
How can they sleep well telling all these lies?
Better at stake then giving over
I said better at stake than giving over
You better run than going back
My heartbeat is pounding
I'd rather walk for miles
My heartbeat is trembling
Just keep me off their sight
Just keep me off their sight
Just keep me off their sight
Just keep me off their sight

I should have known before
the ashes stopped my breath
I'm almost done, don't wanna
put pressure on your way
You'll stand
You'll fake
Till the end of time
and I'll be there
I should have known before
the ashes stopped my breath
Standing still
Frozen by fear
Can't help you out
I'm paralyzed x2
You'll see in time if it mattered x2
I can't breathe
A useless observer
I am
I could have saved you
But still, fear was my shelter
I should have known before
the ashes stopped my breath
I'm almost done, don't wanna
put pressure on your way
Standing there
Immobile
If I don't move
they'll kill her
I should have known before
the ashes stopped my breath
Standing still
Frozen by fear
Can't help you out
I'm paralyzed x2
You'll see in time if it mattered x2
I can't breathe
A useless observer
I am
I could have saved you
But still fear was my shelter

And the mobsters
And the kingpins
And the black ties
And the tall hats
And the suckers
And the tricksters
the abusers
Serial loosers
And the bankers
All these wankers
It’s the open veins
The open veins of our people
The open veins
The open veins of our land
All the fires, condemn those liars
Burning the city, we’re fifty one-fifty
Home grown Nero, absolute zero
Imperial sound or just the usual
We’re dead inside
But we’re left here alive
Those who hold the keys to our prison
are those who commit the crimes

A wonder life i can’t deny, the life you tried to give me
i tried it on and left behind the blinding lights that kicked me
in a wonder world. And you, a girl so undecided
a millions doors in front of you
Waiting the sun, aint it? are you waiting too?
Waiting the sun honey, in a dead-end tomb
Out on the road to somewhere
While all my world around ya is turning, just craving
I’m all alone not ill disposed
thinking, how will i run away ya ya ya from you
Bad Reverie
Sad Memory
Have turned into one dead letter
Last Reverie
flat memory
just wanna feel so much better
I abide, but I can’t see it over
Empty now, the world around
Haunting lights, in the room
Trying to hide away the night
Improvise/[All but wise(???)] one more time
Waiting the sun, aint it? are you waiting too?
Waiting the sun honey, in a dead-end tomb
Out on the road to somewhere
While all these thoughts i left em wondering, just growing
I’ve hidden some, most left behind
sinking! How will i run away ya ya ya from you
Bad Reverie
Sad Memory
Have turned into one dead letter
Last Reverie
flat memory
just wanna feel so much better
I abide, but I can’t see it over
