From the inside to the outside
From my heart to the end
Never knowing, never known
All I get is all I give
I might be making myself sick
Isolated and alone
There’s a way if I can see it
I’m not sure that I can reach it
To transcend, to go on
From the inside to the outside
In my heart to the end
Reaching away
Reach beyond
I’ve tended to my own
For so very long
And it made me strong
How can that be wrong?
Now it’s time to turn away
(Before I turn to stone)
Pulling myself over the stones
Before the light, slipping away
Pulling myself over the stones
Before the light, before the love
Dragging my weight
Across this rock
Reach for the light
Hoping to love
If my strength fails
And this test kills me
I’ll keep reaching away
Reaching beyond
Believe in me
Reach for me
Until grace
Releases me

Nothing Gets Through
04:12

Destroyer lives in here
This plunge headlong
Many the victims
Refuse to be one
Empty sucking
Dry dead clicking
Fingers sticking to, staining everything you touch
Tainted me
Straining to see
Whatever used to mean so much
This love so strong
Where it all went so wrong
No more room for victims here
Nowhere to run to get clear
Feel it going down
Coming down on me
One more dig to see
There is redemption
There is anything in me
Windows...painted ‘em black
Barricaded the doors
I will take it
In pain until I die
Suffer a wall to drown the screaming
Look insanity in the eye
This plunge headlong
Where it all went so wrong
No more room for victims here
Nowhere to run to get clear
Feel it going down
Coming down on us
Shedding my skin
Again and again
Cold and reptilian

Beast
03:31

Escape the pain that makes you man
Lose all your hang ups
It doesn’t matter anymore
When you make yourself a beast
Forget what they want you to be
Break all your promises
Now that we are animal
It doesn’t matter in the least
Show me the way you feel this time
Let me see through your eyes
Choking on the taste of the lies
Shit’s best left for the flies
I know the pain you feel in your mind
I can feel it burning in mine
Spit it out, the bitter taste of lies
More shit to feed the flies
There is only this

Hearts of Metropolis
06:55
|
|||
Dogs, men, slaves
Show of teeth
Cut on backs
Of lesser men
They see
Only red
Night’s blanket downs
Still there is no end
Sixth siren howls
Calling us
In to drown
In the hearts of metropolis
Bleeding in love
Seething with hate
Madness we create
In misery
Is this the way all things should be?
The precious soil
Turned black with blood
All this pointlessness
Our greatest creation
The endless toil
Turns to bad blood
To all this pointlessness
We pledge our contribution

Not Dying
04:37
|

I’m trying to heal myself
I’m trying to believe
There’s a reason to be a better person
I’m gonna keep living
I’m not dying
Made to take take everything
That you’re gonna throw at me
I’m gonna enjoy the pain
Pain. Sweet. Pain. Sweet. Pain…
