Betrayer 01:45
Sharpen the blade. Behead the fuckin snake. Lost sense of reality. Lost grip of my faith. A sudden twist of fate. Hang your head in shame. Betrayer, you're the one to blame. And for a moment I forgave you, yet here we are again. bitch. Take the knife out from my back and place it to your neck. Cut open from ear to ear, now you will know my pain. Eye for an eye, life for a life. Mother fucker. Betrayer. I see through your lies.

Let Me Sleep 01:58
Save myself from this empty shell What is this loneliness I feel? Breathe in the air of a broken home. waiting for the end. I need to turn away Before I'm in too deep. I need to get away. Wish my mind was at ease. Caught in a vicious cycle. I need some relief. Put me out of my misery. Put me in the grave. Put me out of my misery Please just let me sleep. Running from your demons, You'll never escape. Searching for a scapegoat, You'll never reach. How can I make it out of this alive. When the hand that's tried to take my life was mine. I don't want to be me. I'll never rest in peace. All I ask is that you let me sleep.

I have felt the creeping claws of death. I have felt the reapers hands. A broken home is all I've known. I will spend my days preparing for the gallows. I've been marked as an outcast by lack of faith. God has threatened to smite me. When will you realize you cannot kill what you did not create. So if I'm meant to burn, let me burn. Don't try to save me. I know what I am. Unholy. Retribution is for those who can't think. Forcing thoughts upon us human slaves. My redemption lies at the end of a rope. Born to fucking swing. Born to fucking swing.

Waste 02:15
I've walked through the valley of the shadow of death, with a knife in my spine. I took a fall from grace, there is no heaven's gates. For I have sealed my fate. You'll fear me, you'll fear the man I've become. Slowly losing grip on reality, I guess I'm nothing. You'll fear me, you'll fear the man I've become. Slowly losing grip. I'm losing my mind. I can't fucking take this anymore I'm slowly losing my mind. How can you go through life living, like you can't fucking die. Losing the strive to survive. You won't stand the test of time. But the blood Is on your hands. There is no life worth living. If there's no life worth saving. A waste of life to rot in hell. A waste of life walking the earth as filth.

Breathe 02:38
Years spent alone for the things I've done. Forever trapped in my own head. Tried to figure out where I went wrong. Wishing I could take a fucking breath. So tell me what it's like to be just like you. To walk a fuckin mile in your shoes. You spend your whole life running, pretending you've got nothing to lose. Give it up and face the fuckin truth Stop living like you've got nothin to lose. So what's it now that you've got to prove. You're a perfect example of being born to lose. I've got this feeling deep inside won't let me be me, won't let me live my life free. I will break these chains. Separate yourself from me. Or separate the skin from bone. Separate yourself from the place you called home. Forever damned on this walk alone. Six feet deep is making it harder to breathe. Give it up and face the fucking truth. Stop living life like you've got nothing to lose. So what is it that you've got to prove? You're a perfect example of being born to lose. Six feet deep harder to breathe.

Mirror 02:21
I'm a slave. Dancing with the devil But he's been wearing his ugly head. But who am I to judge. When I look just like him My heads on a swivel. And I've seen the world refuse to turn. You wanted things to be different? Every bridge I built I watched you burn. So how the fuck am I supposed to give in to change? When the pages of the book have been torn. I've seen your god dealin his greedy hands. And I've seen his crown of thorns. Oh man in the mirror. Why the fuck am I like this. Wishing I could be like them. Wishing I could be like you.

Look at me and tell me what you see. Slowly slipping from sanity. Im running in circles Chasing a ghost Of who I used to be. It's safe to say, I tried my fucking hardest to escape this mother fuckin crutch. Where were you when it all started? I guess I've got a fuckin problem. Why can't I just let go. Is this what hurt you the most? Damned with a curse. This is what I get for favoring the leech. No time to waste when playing these games. But I've got it all figured out. Refuse to be another slave. Pound my head against the wall to make the voices go away. But they still speak to me. Pound my head against the wall to make the voices go away. But they still speak to me. Convince me I'm unworthy. Forget my name. Forget my fuckin face. You we're supposed to save me. I don't want to be saved. Look at me. Tell me what you see. I'm breaking free from your grip. I refuse to be a slave

Choke 03:12

I've tried to put this all to rest. But you cant outrun death. Buried alive. With all my regrets. A lesson learned I won't forget. I've suffered for far to long. What have I done to deserve this? Why do I feel this way? I know they're watching me. I can feel my bones bleed. I try to run away. From this place that haunts me. But no matter how far I get I can't seem to escape. I try to run away. From this place that haunts me. But no matter how far I get I can't seem to escape. I know I'm not alone. In this hell. I know I'm not alone. I know I'm not alone. In this hell. In this hell I call home. Calloused hands grab the hammer. Driving the nail through my head. Paranoia has made it's mark. This lesson I won't forget.

No room for the weak. You lost yourself so easily. Don't pray forgiveness. Except defeat. Live and let die. I'm not bound by your faith. No savior could save me from my mistakes. No one here can hear you scream. Fuck your false ideals. Fuck your false idols. No room for the weak. You lose yourself so easily. Don't pray for forgiveness. (Except defeat. ) Don't pray for forgiveness. (No one is listening.) I'm sorry. (I'm sorry) How could I be so blind to your impurity. Your gods, false idols. Mislead you like a puppet on strings. No gods. No masters. Will ever have their strings on me. Your gods False Idols, false idols, false idols. Your preachers preach of hope and forgiveness. While they molest the innocent. Off with their heads No gods No masters Off with their heads.
