1. Force-Fed

What exists around us?
The right to choose free spirit
Master of fate embrace
Time to judge them, aversion to believe the lies
What are we waiting for?
Preserving the right to decide

Unaware of what exists around us

Chasing the dreams, the shadows behind me
Everything's clear

Force-fed awaken realize


2. Anti-Hero

Send us to die across the seas
Where it's told we want to deceive
Send us so far from home
Empty hearts want to believe the fight is for humanity
Look at yourself heroic state of existence
Patriot in your mind
Look around you, the world is caving in
Victim of life, the antihero
Torn between right and wrong the antihero
Black white dead all over
When does the war against war begin?


3. Better Days

Suicide on the horizon
I count these miseries to ten
Contempt is a lifestyle
Contempt is a lifestyle

The demons trike twice
Demons, these demons strike twice
Contempt is a lifestyle
Contempt is a lifestyle

Suicide on the horizon
I count these miseries to ten

These past of the tint of light turns to twilight
'Cause I won't understand
Better day
'Cause I won't understand

'Cause I won't
Bow down won't let this eat me alive
Crawl out of my hole
Exorcise the demons

Better Days
These past of the tint of light turns to twilight
Cause I won't understand
Better Days
Cause I won't understand


4. Precious Lie

The weight of the world
Upon me, what do I seek?
The horror of what has become
The touch of your hand

She was a precious lie
I always dreamed of
Took lust into love

The power behind your eyes
Makes me believe
My faith in you
Can do no wrong
I would crash the gates of hell

Is this where I belong?


5. Washed Out World

As the sunsets and life reverts to dust
Night falls over my eyes,
A sigh of relief for the end of this day
My hopes and dreams
Is this what has come to be?

Sky is gray washed out world
Deep in this place I won't go

Smell of rotting flesh, a look of disbelief
Wooden cinders scorched the earth
Mother forgive us what have we done?
What does the future hold?


6. Living Nightmare

Empowered to enslave
Instructed to degrade, the burden of victory
The bloodlust of a generation

Blood on my hands
Mercy for the weak
Judgement incomplete

My vanity shields me
Monitored to issue control
Widespread propaganda
Masked hidden agendas

Our eyes receive, but can't perceive their lies


7. Soul Engraved

And in the end I'll rise
Endured the event that should have been my demise
Looking forward to new life, my second chance
In a candid instance I witness life flash before my eyes
My sense of purpose is encouraged by my will to survive

Looking past that day toward my future.
What will it be? Knowing what must be done.

And it shows my seams are frayed,
Give me the strength,
Strength to face the day.

My soul has been engraved, give me
The strength, strength to make this change

Battered and torn form a selfless act,
My spirit not broken
I'm back with a vengeance, fists clenched,
To grasp this destiny
My will to conquer all,
Understanding of what I must do.


8. Gone Forever

I lived all these years, Lost in a hollow shell
Darkness clouds the corners of my mind
Will I ever see the truth?
Will he ever reveal himself?

Will I be gone forever?
Will I disappear?

Mirrors all around
Destroy me, reflections move
Through the darkness
Yet I stand still in fear and suffering
Fear is the only end

I lived


9. Judge The Blood

Listen to these words of wisdom
It's time to break down the walls, break down the cries
And when I wake does the sun shine on me?
And when I sleep does the moon look from above?

It's time to break down the walls, break down the cries
It's time to break down the walls, break down the cries

And when I wake does the sun shine on me
And when I sleep does the moon look from above
Have you ever taken the time to judge the blood?
Have you ever taken the time to think about it?
