Maelstrom
03:17
|
|||
Take my hand for awhile
Steal my breathe with a smile
I need you more than ever to help me see this through
The current pulls me down, My head is going under
Maelstrom in my mind, feeling capsized
I’m howlin' for your gaze, to meet me for a spell
The current pulls me down, will you let me under?
And all I see ahead of this love is loss,
Take my hand but know someday i’ll let go
Fulfillment is a ghost and my heart is the haunted house
Try as you may you can’t heal these scars
And now the time has come
The hands have aligned
The sun is shining down on me
Now hear the battlecry
As we come alive
Imbue me with your melody
And as it all burns up
You start glimmering
I hope tomorrow never comes
Oh let this moment last
Unwavering
A peace inside though we knew
The spell you cast just could never last
My better side is just a mask to hide
The ghost inside my bones that drags me to this place
Monotony creeps in; won’t you take me far away
The demon in me always seems to win

Underneath the Gold
03:38
|

You’ve got a lot to learn
So just stick around
They’ll show you the way
To get that rock rolling
And as long as you try
I’m sure they’ll all love you
So don’t carry that sigh
Just give them your best
Maybe it’s not quite as nice as you thought it would be
And underneath the gold you can feel the cracks
Find your reason to put up a fight
And carve that name into the back of your head
30 odds years ain't got nothing to shine
This mountain will move I won’t settle for less
After the cameras off
you can see the smile
Fade away again
as the haunt resumes
And the voice in her head
Is all bitter and angry
Yearning for a dream
That slipped between her fingers
And deep inside her bones there’s a ghost and a pain
No one else to blame is it time to face up?
Find your reason and put up a fight
And carve that name into the back of your head
30 odds years ain't got nothing to shine
This mountain will move I won’t settle for less
No better time than the present to fly
To hell with your rules im gonna make you move
Find your reason and put up a fight
And carve that name into the back of your head
Burden me down I’ll still come back from this
This mountain will move I won’t settle for less
and in the end you'll find, the other voice mattered
was the one in your head so give them your best

Pale Eyes
02:50

Hey Pales Eyes,
Let me show you my bones,
Spend some time with this old ghost
If you got the swing baby,
I got the shine,
Let’s take this train off into the eve’
Devotion in kind,
Maybe just for the night,
You could be my queen?
But with a face like that I must be dreaming, woah
She’s got a fan club, and a check by her name
I’m just a phantom, who’s got the blues
Tell me your name
Or just give me a sign
That it’s time to leave this place behind
No need to wait
Or pretend for my sake,
You can be true for me darling
But with a face like that I must be dreaming, woah
She’s got a fan club, and a check by her name
I’m just a phantom, who’s got the blues
Light of my eye
You know I can't wait
til the sun burns out to
get a taste
let's lead them all out
far past the gate
so no one hears when I end the chase
Say what you want
But baby I know
Behind your pretty smile
There’s a demon in tow
Be my lady
Just for a spell
And don’t worry honey
Cuz I won’t tell
So hey pale eyes
What’ll it be?
Won’t you spend a little bit of time with me?

The Veil
03:22
|
|||
Complicit in the crime
Oh we’re just buying time
Sold them on a lie
Tempered in the masquerade
The Devil runs by a brand new name
the song remains the same
Steady your aim, count it down with me
Here’s to the fall of Rome
And the circle completing
Now bend your knee and beg
Repentant and believing
That still there was no better time than now
To stand up and fight your fate
You claw at the veil, but the truth you won’t find
Say it isn’t so
Where was our warning?
Crippled by the doubt
Of Who was deceiving (who)?
The devil goes by a brand new name
the song remains the same
Steady your aim, let it all out now
Here’s to the fall of Rome
And the circle repeating
Bend your knee and beg
Repentant and believing
That still there was no better time than now
To stand up and fight your fate
You claw at the veil but the truth?
we buried it long ago
Here’s to the fall of Rome
And the circle completing
Bend your knee and beg
Repentant and believing
That still there was no better time than now
To stand up and fight your fate
Don’t worry my dear, this all has happened before

Necessary Evil
03:28
|
|||
Catch the feeling
It's infectious
A necessary evil
So they chanted
As they marched on
Anger as their banner
Everybody look away
There's blood on the streets
Lined them up one by one
With a bullet to the head
Oh as we led him to the gallows
Tell me friends have you ever looked in a mirror?
Oh we're still hungry
Nothing is enough to extinguish the urge
Crush the hateful
Snuff the candle
We'll take no surrender
There's no mercy
Or good reason
Just a hunger for the feeling
Hey Mr. Commandant,
They said you would know
Just want to do
To save us your faithful
We’re down on our knees
We’re your bavarian bleu
Now the bolt has begun to bend
No lesson was learned
another reminder
Of the evil inside her
The circle keeps spinning round and round and round and round
Catch the feeling
It’s infectious
A necessary evil
So we chanted
As we marched on,
Anger as our banner
There’s no mercy
Or good reason
Just a hunger for the feeling
For the feeling
For the feeling

The Mirror
02:58
|
|||
My name is firebrand
And I’m bulletproof
I can’t hear your words
Over the sound of my roaring blaze
Do you toe the line?
will you join me on this climb?
I’ll make your castles move
my spirit's running high
This the start and I have no apologies
To give to thee
Gonna make you all see
that I was right all along
The rules don’t apply
To all the rising stars and the fever dreamers
Have you got the stones, to brave this bitter world?
Can you hear that rolling wheel, crushing another soul?
Alone, we feel, as the winter snow starts to fall
Down, again.
The devil our back won’t break
Fulfillment is our phantom pain
Is it ever enough for you? Won’t you help me see this through
The reverie of all my years snuffed out
Time doesn’t wait
It’s passing ya by
it feels too late
To turn this sinking old ship around
Is that me in the mirror?
Have I grown into this fool?
They told me that it’d be different,
They sold me a different world.
And the dream is gone
There’s nothing left to love,
But this cold dark grave.

Girl of my Dreams
02:48
|
|||
She’s waiting in my dreams
Bringing me to task
Reminding me of all
the bridges I’ve burnt down
It’s time to smell the ashes
Just it let decay
all the ghosts and past mistakes
I can’t wash away
I couldn’t be the man
you wanted me to be
for that I’m sorry darling
but the show must go on
But It’s what I deserve
It’s my penance
I’m looking through the wreckage
signs point to sabotage
Is it too late to turn this tide and get back to shore
Don’t feel bad for me
Just learn from my mistake
Don’t let her become the girl of your dreams
Indulge my wicked heart
Make me empty
Ohh I know someday
I’ll forget you
Yeah someday
But it can’t come soon enough
this hollow love is not enough
To live on
To live on
thoughts and flames but none compare
lost to time let me take it back
once endless skies now turn to black
how fate beyond does seem to lack
the best times are in the past

Funeral Song
02:55
|
|||
Looking down the end of a barrel
Always biting your tongue to get by
Walk slowly and shuffle down the alley
You wouldn’t want them to see you so low
Be strong no one has to worry
Don’t let it show
Just let it go
To that little old place
Where nothing ever seems to change
Keep kicking the can down the road
Call Fritz and let him know the score
On a grave a single white rose
Sits weeping alone
But you don’t know
There’s a little old place
Where nothing’s ever seems change
You can cry if you want
As long as you know
That things won’t get better
You died a long long time ago
And this is your funeral song
I’m playing you out babe
It’s all been a dream
It’s time to wake up
It’s to time to give in
You died a long long time ago
And this is your funeral song
Hey now it’s time to dry those tears
No one’s gonna miss you when you’re gone
The world’s turning you’re already forgotten
Just a flash in the pan
It’s time to go
To that little old place
we all know you’ll never change
You can cry if you want
As long as you know
That things won’t get better
You died a long long time ago
And this is your funeral song
I’m playing you out babe
It’s all been a dream
It’s time to wake up
It’s to time to give in
You died a long long time ago
And this is your funeral song

Voice in my Head
04:17
|
|||
They say it’s the times burgeoning on
Cast a shadow on the light of my soul
Sticking around
Bringing us down
Make your peace unwanted company
A new dawn is here and I’ll see it through
Even if it takes me far away
And I hope it takes me far away
From the voice in my head
You’re just a voice in my head
No matter how hard I try
It keeps coming back to you
Sitting all alone outside, just chasing the rain
Waiting on something to change
But it never does
it never does
You’re just a voice in my head
I’m running back in reverse,
Still haunted by your name
I’ve tried my best to fake it
And just bury away
This jukebox that keeps repeating
Your siren song
Your siren song
Is just a voice in my head
You're just a voice in my head
A voice from the dead
All the time that we’ve shared,
I hope it was fun for you.

The Worst Part
04:26
|
|||
When I was young I couldn't wait to age
Stand up tall with my pop the sage
I can help you hold the line
I may be small but I know in time
Things will look up things will change
I skin my knees for another day
Fleeting flickering fickle flame
Hide tonight and ease the pain
But don't you fret just yet
Cuz the worst part’s yet to come
It's waiting for you at the end
Right before it goes dark
You'll wonder if you ever truly got to live the life
You wanted to
Now that I'm older and worse for wear
Starting to rust, living on a dare
I'm slowing down I guess it's true
Time always gets the best of you
But don't you fret just yet
Cuz the worst part’s yet to come
It's waiting for you at the end
Right before it goes dark
You'll wonder if you ever truly got to live the life
You wanted to
The lines that paint your face won't lie
There's a price we all have to pay
You say that they'll never burn your heart out
But will you still believe
When there's no roses at your door?
But don't you fret just yet
Cuz the worst part’s yet to come
It's waiting for you at the end
Right before it goes dark
You'll wonder if you ever truly got to live the life
You wanted to
But you don’t you fret just yet
