Callused
04:40
|
|||
Too weak and too far, and just too late
Too callus to care. Too smart to think it's not fake
Too proud to forgive, just too lost to see
Too afraid of myself
To speak with you honestly
I want to watch you lose it all
Fake
I thought I saw you here
Leave
Guilty and it's so clear
Scared
Of what you might never find
Fear
All that you'll have in time
Convinced again
Afraid again
Let them all inside again
My thoughts a threat
To all my friends
And to myself
And to my life
I drank away another night
They’re not surprised
So what's next?
Another chance
To fuck it up?
To make amends?
To hide again?
Inside my head
I'm facing words
I never said
Punishing myself
For things I never did
But I see that I
Only wasted my time
So I will take your advice
And just fall on my sword
I showed you the scars
And you asked me
"Why'd you do that?"
I know that I did it just to prove that
I could and I'll do much more
I'm just counting the seconds till I can show you that it's all been for
This
I thought I saw you here
Leave
Guilty and it's so clear
Scared
Of what you might never find
Fear
All that you'll have in time
You don't deserve forgiveness
I'm afraid
Of the changes
I'm making
Living the life that
You've been shaping
Or is that an excuse?
Am I losing to you?
Am I speaking the truth?
I've just trying to prove
That I'm as good as you
The hell you put me through
That all my thoughts are true
And I refuse to kneel
Convinced again
Afraid again
Let you inside again
My thoughts a threat
To everything
And to myself
And to my life
And if I choose
I'll drink away another night
They're not surprised
It's in my blood
And in my thoughts
And in my wants
Fuck it all
I'm too far gone
You don't deserve forgiveness
You're right, I'm too far gone
You're right, I am no different
I am already gone
Fake
I thought I saw you here
Leave
Guilty and it's so clear
Scared
Of what you might never find
Fear
All that you'll have in time
Too weak and
Too far
Too callus
To care

Breed
04:52
|
|||
Screaming for sound
Bonded by blood
Nothing but ashes
Nothing; I've become
It lives inside my mind
Breed venom, Breed filth
Controls the thoughts inside
Destroying free will
Gone
It calls upon me
"Destroy this disease
Not even worth despise
Spread poison, spread greed"
It calls upon me
"Sacrifice for the free
Eradicate the dishonest
And liberate the diseased"
Eyes lock as blood is drawn
Silent, vigilant, still
The man I was is gone
Irreverent, this sentence;
As it's leaving my lips
If ignorance is bliss
Then please let me lie
These people
Their faces
They all know I'm tainted
I’m tainted
And they're all just waiting
For me
To slip up, to show I'm weak
Condemned
Believe what you blindly speak
It's changed their opinions
They think I'm a victim
So I'm forced to witness
Them all lose their lives
Awry
I can't control myself
The voices, their eyes
"Silence. Compose yourself and swallow your pride."
Irreverent, this sentence;
As it's leaving my lips
If ignorance is bliss
Then please let me lie
These people
Their faces
They all know I'm tainted
Irreverent, this sentence;
As it's leaving my lips
If ignorance is bliss
Then please let me lie
These people
Their faces
They all know I'm tainted
And they're all just waiting
To show me their teeth
I tried to just hide it
But I guess despite this
It's made its way out
And it's tightened its grip
It's thoughts are now mine
And my mind is it's home
If you think that you're suffering
It's easier alone
False hope
Irreverent, this sentence
As it's leaving my lips
If ignorance is
Bliss
Then please
Let me
Lie
With sin
Breed fear

Mannequin
03:08
|

Hidden behind closed doors
What are they thinking?
What did I do?
They're nothing like me
That's nothing new
Rather a madman
Than a statue
Wearing a mask they share
Why are you different?
Why're you the same?
Why can't you fix it?
You'll have no one but yourself to blame
Mannequin
Eyes aimed
Singing their hymn
Mannequin
Silent, you're lifeless like a statue
Mannequin
Try to pretend like you're everyone around you
Mannequin
Can wear a mask, but they'll see right through you
Mannequin
They'll sing their hymn until you're consumed too
So stuck in all their thoughts
I'm fucking tired
Listen or leave
Speak with conviction
Or don't speak
Live life with passion
Or live weak
Don't care if it's
Been said before
"Cliche" is a lie
There's so much more
You'll give and they'll get
Transform into a mannequin
Mannequin
Stood still
Consumed by sin
Mannequin
Silent, you're lifeless like a statue
Mannequin
Try to pretend like you're everyone around you
Mannequin
Can wear a mask, but they'll see right through you
Mannequin
They'll sing their hymn until you're consumed too
Desperate and clinging
Tired of the game
Mannequin
Insisting
To just quit persisting
But I know they're listening
So here's my reply
I'll take what is mine

Burden
04:37
|
|||
This feeling
Not leaving
Short fall from the ceiling
I'll steady my breathing
Last breath, so relieving
Burden
Ten million suns
Exploding all at once
The light blinds
The words bind
Suffer to stay alive
Cracked my head so I could see my own thoughts
Saw nothing nice, so I pretend I forgot
But they all know I've got something to hide
They like to stare
I feel their god damn eyes
Block out the sun, so we'll all go blind
Isolate, convince yourself you're fine
Take our tongues, but we'll still learn to speak
We'll speak through love, and our hearts aren't weak
Ten million suns
Exploding all at once
The light blinds
The words bind
Suffer to stay alive
Burden
Choosing numb
Choosing gone
Chasing nothing
Choosing wrong
Self destructive sonder
A burden; a bother
"Just like your weak father"
"You'll end just like your mother:
Young."
Block out the sun, so we'll all go blind
Isolate, convince yourself you're fine
Take our tongues, but we'll still learn to speak
We'll speak through love, and our hearts aren't weak
Ten million suns
Exploding all at once
The light blinds
The words bind
Suffer to stay alive
Choosing numb
Choosing gone
Chasing nothing
Choosing wrong
This is
Above all
A promise to those
Who'll stand and watch as you fall
This is the price we'll pay
(Burden)
Stoic
Shadows consume the tide
Hatred
Violence absorbs the night
Heathen
To stand the test of time
Burden
To punish for our crimes
Block out the sun, so we'll all go blind
Isolate, convince yourself you're fine
Take our tongues, but we'll still learn to speak
We'll speak through love, and our hearts aren't weak
Ten million suns
Exploding all at once
The light blinds
The words bind
Suffer to stay alive
Stoic
Shadows consume the tide
Hatred
Violence absorbs the night
Heathen
To stand the test of time
Burden
To punish for our crimes

I can't seem to redeem
What was lost here
I don't think I'll receive what is mine
I won't beg for what I know isn't out there
Nothing left to find
I want to see it
I want to mean it
Taken all in stride
I'm taking what is mine
Nothing to find
Made up my mind
I'll take this to the end
And take no one alive
Fragile teeth
To hide what's underneath
A crooked smile, to bring them to their knees
Primal thoughts, intrude inside your mind
You let them in, you let them thrive
I can't seem to redeem
What was lost here
I don't think I'll receive what is mine
I won't beg for what I know isn't out there
Nothing to find, you let them thrive
I hear the colors
I see the sound
Can you lose what can't be found?
I heard them screaming
I saw them beg
You can't kill what is already dead
(You can't kill what is already dead)
(Dana Willax Feature)
I don't think you could take what I've been through
I don't think
You could make it this far
I'm not afraid of what I'll face, and what I'll find here
I've been through worse and won
What a sick fucking taste
I won't let it go to waste
Chew you up
Get it down
Consumed by blacksound
In a hole, in the ground
Where I'll never be found
Just a chase, for a taste
Till the end of my days
I hear the colors
I see the sound
Can you lose what can't be found?
I heard them screaming
I saw them beg
You can't kill what is already dead
I don't care about judgment
Cliche is what they say when they're afraid of me
Don't know a thing about justice
But this whole world is fake
There's no such thing as shame
I hear the colors
I see the sound
How do you lose what can't be found?
I heard them screaming
I saw them beg
You can't kill what is already dead
I see the lies
I saw what's fake
The human mind
Can't be contained
This place is changing
Made it my own
If I'm dead
I'll make a grave a throne
What a sick fucking place
But I'd really like a taste
Yeah, this hole is my home
And I've made it my throne
Buried deep underground
Where I'll never be found
This is where I'd like to stay
Consumed by Blacksound

Forget
03:59
|
|||
I'm silent, so restless
No point in pretending
Forget who you are
(I know that it's hard.)
They think that they know you
We all know that's not true
Forget and begin
(To let it all in.)
I, know I have to try
But what if I'm not right
Not lucid, but vivid
I’ve begged for forgiveness
I
Can't change
I'll die this way
I'll just
Wait
Please just forget me
Crawling out of my skin
Forget, and I begin
To close my eyes
(Lose concept of time.)
Feels just like I'm sinking
With everything spinning
Feel more like myself
(And lost in a lie)
Born from sin
Molded by vice
The hour glass falls on its side
Time stands still
Bend my will
I
Can't change
I'll die this way
I'll just
Wait
Please just forget me
Crawling out of my own skin
Forgot again, how I got here
But I'll just wait
Because I can't change
But, I can't change
I want to stay
Please, just let me fall apart
Fall apart
Let me into my heart
Let me fall apart
Let my mind depart
I
Can't change
I'll die this way
I'll just
Wait
Please, just forget me
Let me love
Let me try to live
Let me fight
Let me try to forgive
I
Don't
Know

12 Months
04:02
|
|||
It's the gnawing in my stomach
It's the hatred in my eyes
It's the thing that keeps us bonded
It's everything that I despise
It's all the love there is to feel
It's every wish I've taken back
Its when you think that you're lost, that you turn to the black
Never lost, it can only be found
If you're broken, then welcome;
All to Blacksound
12 Months since I fell asleep
12 Months, still feels like a dream
12 Months since I knew myself
It's been 12 Months, but I could hardly tell...
12 months since you've said my name
12 Months I'll never be the same
12 Months of questioning myself
Questioning, if I could make it out
The offering
Of weakness
Humans as a whole
Believe in the millions
Aspiring for home
A home for the homeless
Who've made their mistakes
But still deserve kindness
To hurt is to waste
If I could just get through this
I could see so clear
All is Blacksound
