"Victim"
 
House full of roses, a letter on the stairs
A tape full of messages for anyone who cares
Collage of broken words and stories full of tears
Remembering your life cause we wish that you were here

Nothing is harder than to wake up all alone
Realize it's not okay, it's the end of all you know
Time keeps passing by, but it seems I'm frozen still
Scars are left behind, but some too deep to feel

And some say this can't be real
And I've lost my power to feel tonight
We're all just victims of a crime
When all's gone and can't be regained
We can't seem to shelter the pain inside
We're all just victims of a crime

Some days you'll find me in a place I like to go
Ask questions to myself 'bout the things I'll never know
What's left to find? Cause I need a little more
I need a little time, can we even up the score?

And some say this can't be real
And I've lost my power to feel, tonight
We're all just victims of a crime
When all's gone and can't be regained
We can't seem to shelter the pain, inside
We're all just victims of a crime

Nothing lasts forever, for all good things it's true
I'd rather trade it all while somehow saving you
It must have been the season that've threw us out of line
Once I stood so tall, now I'm searching for a sign

So don't need your salvation with promises unkind
And all the speculations, save it for another time
'Cause we all need a reason, a reason just to stay
And some just can't be bothered to stick around another day

And some say this can't be real
And I've lost my power to feel, tonight
We've all been victims of a crime
When all is gone and can't be regained
We can't seem to shelter the pain inside
We've all been victims of a crime

Victims of a crime
Living with this crime

I'm missing you
I'm missing you
I'm missing you
I'm missing you...

"Tonight The World Dies"
 
Lost the meaning of our stay
Learn to live another day
Doubt the choices that we've made
I know that we can't hide our shame
It's only in disguise

Drowning in our own debris
Fool our thoughts as through we're free
Close our eyes so we can see
The depth of all we need to be
If only in my eyes

I don't mind- make the writing on the wall
Mother cries- tortured voices as we crawl
Find me on my better days
To lose it once again
In a way

So try and love me while you can
And take the time to understand
As long as I can touch your face
You know I'll never leave this place
If only in my mind

I don't mind- make the writing on the wall
Mother cries- tortured voices as we call
Find me on my better days
To lose it once again
But I seem to find no better ways
To consciously pretend

Silence all I want to say
With tendencies to run away
I'll run away with you tonight
Launder all my sins away
And just like that mistakes are made, you know
Tonight the world dies

I don't mind- make the writing on the wall
Mother cries- tortured voices as we crawl
Find me on my better days
To lose it once again
But I seem to find no better ways
To consciously pretend

"Fiction"
 
Now I think I understand,
How this world can overcome a man.
Like a friend we saw it through,
In the end I gave my life for you.

Gave you all I had to give,
Found a place for me to rest my head.
While I may be hard to find,
Heard there's peace just on the other side.

Not that I could,
Or that I would,
Let it burn,
Under my skin.
Let it burn!

Left this life to set me free,
Took a piece of you inside of me.
All this hurt can finally fade,
Promise me you'll never feel afraid.

Not that I could,
Or that I would,
Let it burn,
Under my skin.
Let it burn!

I hope it's worth it,
Here on the highway, yeah.
I know you'll find your own way when I'm not with you.

So tell everybody
The ones who walk beside me, yeah.
I hope you'll find your own way when I'm not with you tonight.

I hope it's worth it,
What's left behind me, yeah.
I know you'll find your own way when I'm not with you.

So tell everybody,
The ones who walk beside me, yeah.
I know you'll find your own way when I'm not with you tonight.

"Save Me"
 
Skull!

(They all know. They all know.)

Sorry, did I wake your dream?
Some questions run to deep
We only, only wake up when we sleep
Led by the lunar light, trouble's all we'd find
Lost our way tonight

Is it something we said?
Is it something we said to them?
Is it something we said?!

(Save me)
I'm trapped in a vile world
(Save me)
Where the end game's all the same as every other
We're only here to die
(Save me)
I'm losing my only dream
(Save me)
I can use some guiding light, some place to go
If you hear me, let me know

(They all know. They all know.)

Ever since the day you left my fate's been set unknown
How many years to walk this path alone?
So much to see tonight, so why'd you close your eyes?
Why can't I shut mine?

Is it something we did?
Is it something we did to them?
Is it something we did?!

(Save me)
I'm trapped in a vile world
(Save me)
Where the end game's all the same as every other
We're only here to die
(Save me)
I'm losing my only dream
(Save me)
I can use some guiding light, some place to go
If you hear me, let me know,
If you hear me, let me know

Help me find my way
I said help me find my way

No pulse inside of me
Stone cold lips and heresy
All lies and to a degree
Losing who I want to be
You'll find out right now
He may be out of his mind,
But some day you will find
That sanity's left us all blind
and dragged us all behind
A moment seen through those eyes,
Crystal blue disguise
They say that all beauty must die,
I say it just moves on

If you'd only open your mind
Then some day you will find
Insanity left us behind
and walked right through the door
I can see the pictures clear as yesterday
Pictures all my own
I can hear the voices begging you to stay
But know you're not alone

(Save me)
I'm trapped in a vile world
(Save me)
Where the end game's all the same as every other
We're only here to die
(Save me)
I'm losing my only dream
(Save me)
I can use some guiding light, some place to go
If you hear me, let me know,
If you hear me, let me know

Tonight we all die young
Tonight we all die young
Tonight we all die young
Tonight we all die young
Tonight we all die young
Tonight we all die young
Tonight we all die
Tonight we all die young!

"Lost It All"
 
Run away
I'm living with a hole inside
A piece of me that I have yet to find
The edge of reason lies uneven
Turn me off, feel the blood so cold

Like a product that was bought in salt
Asking me for the impossible

I ain't waiting for a miracle
I ain't waiting for the world to change
Under my skin lives the reason
Under my armor I lost it all

No more pain
No savior made of our design
Fool me before I tell ya not this time
Rape my body, lost my vision, lost my mind
I had to let it go

Another day living irrational
Another day inside this dying soul

I ain't waiting for a miracle
I ain't waiting for the world to change
Under my skin lives the reason
Under my armor I lost it all

There's something in your eyes
A part of me that I recognize
I want to let you know
We'd be there if we could and it's alright
You taught me how to feel
It's no wonder I'd do anything
Tell me why'd you have to go?
With the ones that come lost are the best I know
At times, it seems that we've lost it all

Burn it all
Burn it to the fucking ground
Believe the words that I don't want me around
Life with vision, indecision
World collision and heads will roll
With nothing left except the pain to show
Mental imagery on the floor

I ain't waiting for a miracle
I ain't waiting for the world to change
Under my skin lives the reason
Under my armor I lost it all

"4:00 AM"
 
There comes a day when we all find out for ourselves
That once we have the words to say, there's no one left to tell
I know why you're running away

There's a place where nothing seems to be a simple cry cohesively
It's all your mind, all your mind
Something little shouldn't feel this way, we got a million thoughts we can't convey
It's all your life, all your life

It's four in the morning, you got one more chance to die
Like beautiful stories, the greatest chapters flew right by
There comes a day when we all find out for ourselves
That once we have the words to say, there's no one left to tell
I know why you're running away

These things don't happen here, another fictional reality
It's all you'll find, all you'll find
It's just as good as any other day, I'm gonna teach you about mortality
No, it's not right, it's not right

It's four in the morning, you got one more chance to die
Like beautiful stories, the greatest chapters flew right by
There comes a day when we all find out for ourselves
That once we have the words to say, there's no one left to tell
I know why you're running away

In many ways, I guess I'll never let you go
I'm close behind but I've got room here left to grow
Until our second chance, just enjoy the dance,
And find out who we are (these dreams will never leave you)
Let's find out what we are (these dreams will never leave you)
(Never leave you asking why)

It's four in the morning, you got one more chance to die
Like beautiful stories, the greatest chapters flew right by
There comes a day when we all find out for ourselves
That once we have the words to say, there's no one left to tell
I know why you're running
I know why you're running away

"Carry On"
 
Some people live that selfish desire
Some choose to shout when they speak and they’ll be the start
Guarding the flame of those deep in fire
Seeking out those with a voice
One for tomorrow

They say we’ve lost our minds, we’ve just gained control

Search endlessly, fight till we’re free
Fly past the edge of the sea
No bended knee, no mockery,
Somehow we still carry on

Silence your fear, we’ve got to move higher,
Unlock the stars in the sky
Guarding us all
Battle the will of those who consṗire,
Take back the passion to live, vanish the sorrow

Destroys their perfect crime, watch the power fold

Search endlessly, fight till we’re free
Fly past the edge of the sea
No bended knee, no mockery,
Somehow we still carry on

Search endlessly, fight till we’re free
Fly past the edge of the sea
No bended knee, no mockery,
Somehow we still carry on
Carry on

"Not Ready To Die"
 
Gone cast away in time
Evil yours, now evil mine
So I robbed you blind,
The voices in my head could jest a less than peaceful side
The endless possibilities controlling every fight

You can't break me,
Crushed the fears of yesterday
You can't change me,
Barriers our trust will fade

I've stood in the dark,
Been waiting all this time
While we damn the dead I'm trying to survive,
I'm not ready to die

Damned, watch the masses fall
Burn it down, control 'em all
(Enemy) make me crawl,
To daddy's little girl to read the writings on the wall
While cast into the nothingness the final curtain call

You can't break me,
Crushed the fears of yesterday
You can't change me,
Barriers our trust will fade

I've stood in the dark,
Been waiting all this time
While we damn the dead I'm trying to survive,
I'm not ready to die

Through the madness we find
Loyalty is no match for power
Save your body or lie,
Left to rot in your darkest hour
Friends won't help you now
As long as you're mine

You can't break me,
Crushed the fears of yesterday
You can't change me,
Barriers our trust will fade

I've stood in the dark,
Been waiting all this time
While we damn the dead I'm trying to survive

And I'll control the world one person at a time
As I damn the dead I'm trying to survive,
I'm not ready to die

Oh!

I'm not ready to die
I'm not ready to die!
I'm not ready to die
I'm not ready to die!
Ready to die
Ready to die
Ready to die
I'm not ready to die

"Paranoid"

Originally by Black Sabbath
 
Finished with my woman cause she couldn't help me with my mind
People think I'm insane because I am frowning all the time
All day long I think of things but nothing seems to satisfy
Think I'll lose my mind if I don't find something to pacify

Can you help me occupy my brain
Whoah yeah

I need someone to show me the things in life that I can't find
I can't see the things that make true happiness, I must be blind

Make a joke and I will sigh and you will laugh and I will cry
Happiness I cannot feel and love to me is so unreal

And so as you hear these words telling you now of my state
I tell you to enjoy life I wish I could but it's too late
