Dishate 05:31
Dishate With all that you've done With all of the lies that you've told to yourself I'll never forget the way you made me feel It's almost over now Just sing your song while you're still awake and breathing I can see your end Slow down, take a breath It may be your last Hold out your hand Accept this gift of eternal life in hell With all that you've done With all of the blood that you've spilled to the ground I'll never forget the calming of the impending storm It's almost over now Frustration's growing like the ashes What used to be your life So lie awake Accept these choices that you have made You have done this to yourself So lie awake Accept these choices that you have made You have done this to yourself With all that you've done With all of the blood that you've spilled to the ground I'll never forget the way you made me feel It's almost over now Frustration's growing like the ashes I can see your end So lie awake Accept these choices that you have made You have done this to yourself So lie awake Accept these choices you have made You have done this to yourself And I can hear you laughing You don't even have a clue, do you? They're always just sitting there laughing and staring at you As you did nothing You're no one You're nothing You're no one Slow down, take a breath It may be your last Hold out your hand Accept this gift of eternal life in hell Slow down, take a breath It may have your last Hold out your hand Accept this gift of eternal life in hell So lie awake Accept these choices you have made You have done this to yourself So you lie awake Accept these choices you have made You have done this to yourself So lie awake Accept these choices you have made You have done this to yourself And lie awake Accept these choices you have made You have done this to yourself

Second Perception From a mile away I watched you crawl out of a grave I tried to save you, but there was nothing left to save Am I to blame? Is it right that I bear all the shame Your bitter agony is killing me Break me Tear down the walls til the skin and bones are nothing Until there's nothing left but dust From a mile away I walked alone with all my shame I tried to blame you, but there was no one left to blame Am I the same? Is it right that I thought I could change My bitter agony is killing me Am I alive? Or am I breathing? I see your face staring back at me From a different point on reality Breaking me. Breaking me I tried to turn my face and hide I swallowed the fear and then I tried to look inside But your hollow eyes followed me I need a second just to check my perspective In retrospect I guess that if what I expected Was that this would be easier than it was I guess I was wrong So fucking wrong An optimist would say that it's time well wasted The truth is that time was spent wasting away While I wasted away living day to day The walls fell in on me What did I find When I looked inside? Time stared right back at me Looked me in the eye This is what time said to me Make your decision for the second time She said I need a second just to check my perspective In retrospect I guess that if what I expected Was that this would be easier than it was I guess I was so fucking wrong An optimist would say that it's time well wasted The truth is that time was spent wasting away While I wasted away living day to day The walls fell in on me Fell in on me Who am I? I've seen it once, I've see it a million times, I've seen it all Tried to make me feel I'm perfect But I can't take the shame I never thought I'd try Every day just fell apart In spite of me, in spite of you Of everything that we are What more do you want from me? What more do you need me to do? I've come and give you everything And I tried just to pass some time with you I tried it all for you I need a second just to check my perspective. In retrospect I guess that if what I expected Was that this would be easier than it was I guess I was wrong So fucking wrong An optimist would say that it's time well wasted The truth is that time was spent wasting away While I wasted away living day to day The walls fell in on me Fell in on me

Fear In Me 05:09
Fear in me How was I mistaken? I hit the water and thought I drowned Life was taken from me And I was shaking How was I mistaken? I hit the the water and there I found There was nothing left for me And I was braking How was I mistaken? Down on the water is where I found My hope left me for their pity They were laughing at me What more do you need? You've taken everything from me What more do you want me Me to do for you? What more can you see? You've taken everything from me I won't beg you for your pity You can take it away from me How was I mistaken? I hit the bottom and thought I drowned Life was taken from me And I was shaking How was I mistaken? Down on the bottom is where I found There was nothing left for me They were pissing on me What more do you need? You've taken everything from me What more do you want me Me to do for you? What more can you see? You've taken everything from me I won't beg you for your pity I could take my time All the things I find Suffocate in my mind Is this really my life? I don't want you taking your opinions into my time I can't face it again When you're with me everything is dead And it makes me feel like this is the end This is your bright light I hope you stay This is the end End of the road for you How was I mistaken? I hit the water and thought I drowned Life was taken from me They were pissing on me What more do you need? You've taken everything from me What more can you see? You've taken everything from me I won't beg you for your pity You can take it away from me

Prime Evil 04:34
Prime Evil I am becoming this anger that consumes me My whole life is lying in the ashes Subjugation of this mind Relinquish all control Consume me Lay me down Resurrect what remains A pungent afterthought of what once was Not looking back, just moving forward I'll become myself yet once again This all will end Riding on a bullet Embrace the impact The aftermath will consume me Masticate and spit me out Become this once again This life I create is filled with lies Is breathing Is pushing forward Feels so fucking good So overwhelming Sensational feeling To hate what I've become Empty out my mind Turn it all to black There's nothing left but rage I hate what I've become I hate what I've become

Weaponize 05:13
Weaponize They've come to take you down The way they took me long before you There's no use fighting now You're helpless as they stand before you You're fading And they're gonna bring you over to the dark side And they’re gonna make you see through other eyes and you're gonna be locked in the basement Darkness falls and you won't find your way again Do you have a soul for sale Do you think there's a chance that you will prevail Do you think you'll escape this Open up your eyes I watched them break you down The way they broke me down before you You're fading There's no use fighting now They've come to take you like they took me long before you I can't seem to help you now And they're gonna bring you over to the dark side And they're gonna make you see through my eyes And you're going to a place that's escapeless Empty out your mind, you're faceless They will drag your soul through hell hey will make you forget to remember They will take away your name Replace it on your arm with a number They'll break you down The way they broke me down before you Now you are nothing Break you down The way they broke me down before you Now you are nothing Welcome to the dark side see through other eyes want to escape this you're faithless You are not a soul for sale You are just a servant who will not prevail When your locked in the basement Open up your eyes I'll break you down The way they broke me down before you Now you are nothing Break you down The way they broke me down before you Now you are nothing Break you down The way they broke me down before you Now you are nothing Break you down The way they broke me down before you Now you are nothing I'll break you down The way they broke me down before you Now you are nothing Break you down The way they broke me down before you Now you are nothing

Z Song 07:17
Z Song My own desire to feel You are the bearer of unconditional things I tried But you were never satisfied with me You want to break me down I want to play the victim I always knew that there were times to be grateful for Everything that you've done for me, but it always brings me down I am nothing I always knew that what I wanted was a chance to show you just how to feel When chances up I never want to waste my time down on my face Look what you've done to me You're so high, I'm hollow Seems that I have nothing left when there's nothing left for me to feel I try to pass some time where I can fall away I only wanted you to see me Nothing is perfect But then you looked my way you cast me aside I am nothing, you are everything To you I'm nothing at all My life, my pride my sacrifices coming clear It always gets on me that everything I say You never seem to hear You are the bearer of unconditional, Unconditional love I tried giving you all, but you're never satisfied with me I am nothing I better take a minute look inside How far down will I know where I wanna be How from down will I go in the blackness There is nothing left that's a part of me What do you feel when nothing is real? Tell me what do you feel when all of this is not real? I tried to pass some time where I could fall away I only wanted you to see me Nothing is perfect But when you looked my way you cast me aside I am nothing, you are everything To you I'm nothing at all I don't want to waste away alone Away from everything My heart of stone waiting at the gates I pray to whom When will you tell me Where I need to be Where do I go? Tell me anything I need to know I don't want you waste away alone I am nothing I try to pass some them where I can fall away I only wanted you to see me Nothing is perfect But then you looked my way and cast me aside I am nothing, you are everything To you I'm nothing at all

Recidivist 05:27
Recidivist Change couldn't save me from hatred that made me Frustrated with the sense of oblivion My mind is aching escape from the blatant Past tense thoughts of life once forsaken What was a shell, the terror that drives me Chastised with lies, no hope of repentance Brought me from hell, no heaven will find me Blindly I see there is fate to this sentence They tried to change me They'll never make me see life through their eyes They tried to save me Make me believe there was hope in their promise My disease, acknowledging, room to grow My disease becoming me the clarity, I could not see My disease, begging me, needs to sow Visions are enthralled in me, appalled by those who can not see I can't feel anything When I breathe I can't feel anything When I breathe Wide awake in circles Fictitious parables Metaphors of life strive To distract me from everything Calming in my eyes find Blinding of the melanin Inside it's all the same Fearing at the last breath What do I see, what do I feel? Blinded by the bliss of this What do you see, what do you feel? Terror strikes your heart What do I see, what do I feel? Colours swirl, contagious mist What do you see, what do you feel? End of life Recidivist will claim you Purge and maim you I will take you home But only in pieces Now you're wide awake Staring up into the sky Loud, but silently Screaming out before you die Change, couldn't Blame, wouldn't Hate Now this sacrifice Resurrects the rage inside Pain is nothing now Screaming out before you die Change, couldn't Blame, wouldn't Hate, shouldn't Nothing can change me Change, couldn't Blame, wouldn't Hate, shouldn't They tried to change me I'll never change
