-VERSE-
On endless floors
And corridors
Weak but not broken
And through the rust
It's hunting us
The last breath is spoken
-CHORUS-
You'll never stop me, stop me
I'll bring an army with me
It's never over, over
And it's not over til we say so
-VERSE-
It keeps us here
And knows our fear
A kindred divider
So stand up to
The path we knew
We'll scream through the wires
-CHORUS-
You'll never stop me, stop me
I'll bring an army with me
It's never over, over
And it's not over til we say so

Armageddon
03:30
|
|||
-VERSE-
I am the beast
I am the earth
I am the blood that fills the sky
I am the feast
of famine thirst
And every will to justify
-CHORUS-
It's every day
and every night
My own war
To take it head on
With every wrong
And every right
Back for more
It's armageddon
-HOOK-
Armageddon
Come, come and get it
Armageddon, baby
Armageddon
Come, come and get it
-VERSE-
I am the flesh
I am the flame
A temple to carnality
We are enmeshed
Sacred, profane
Reflected through brutality
-CHORUS-
It's every day
and every night
My own war
To take it head on
With every wrong
And every right
Back for more
It's armageddon
-HOOK-
Armageddon
Come, come and get it
Armageddon, baby
Armageddon
Come, come and get it

Down In Flames
04:07
|
|||
-VERSE 1-
Shame
Wear the pity and the blame
Basking in the glow
A lovely crown of thorns
Cliche
Overdramatic display
An unwelcome show
Of steady undertow
-CHORUS-
You'll make 'em watch while you go down in flames
Self-inflicted pretty little martyr
If forcing empathy
Is as clever as you can be
We'll gladly watch while you go down in flames
Burn baby burn
-VERSE 2-
Vain
You're the Abel and the Cain
No coincidence
You crave an audience
Stray
Committed to the decay
Fake mercy pose
And on and on it goes
-CHORUS-
You'll make 'em watch while you go down in flames
Self-inflicted pretty little martyr
If forcing empathy
Is as clever as you can be
We'll gladly watch while you go down in flames
Burn baby burn

Enemy
03:48
|
|||
-Verse-
Lost
In the time
In the way
Gone but not forgotten
New
Secret crimes
To repay
Now the walls have fallen
-Pre Chorus-
And so it's now or never
-Chorus-
I'm breathing in
I'm breathing out
I'll cut the ties that hold me down
I'm breathing in
I'm breathing out
I'll be the enemy
-Verse 2-
Caught
Quicksand grip
Pull me in
Whisper faith in sickness
Soon
Kill the myth
I'll begin
Be the first to witness
-Pre Chorus-
And so it's now or never
-Chorus-
I'm breathing in
I'm breathing out
I'll cut the ties that hold me down
I'm breathing in
I'm breathing out
I'll be the enemy

Ready Aim Fire
03:04
|
|||
-VERSE-
Seven million strung out on ambition
Sea of relay high rise in remission
All with a hope and a plan to make it out
Give up the ghost when they try to push it down
Now
-CHORUS-
Ready, Aim, Fire
-VERSE-
Die a thousand deaths in hesitation
Far beyond the spark of inspiration
Close to the soul and away from all the doubt
Live what is known when you hear the softest sound
Say
-CHORUS-
Ready, Aim, Fire
|
||||
7. |
Rockstar
03:45
|
|||
-VERSE-
They tell you that
You're staying here
In white walled observation
It's terminal
Or so they fear
Well-meaning resignation
-PRE CHORUS-
Whenever you feel that the world is a lie
A cruel and merciless hope homicide
You gotta fight it with everything you have inside
-CHORUS-
You are a rockstar
A superhero
Get up, get up
And show 'em what you're made of
You know what you are
So let the fear go
Get up, get up
And show 'em what you're made of
-VERSE-
Adversity
A souvenir
To spark your transformation
Tenacity
Is growing near
And here's the inspiration
-PRE CHORUS-
Whenever you feel that the world is a lie
A cruel and merciless hope homicide
You gotta fight it with everything you have inside
-CHORUS-
You are a rockstar
A superhero
Get up, get up
And show 'em what you're made of
You know what you are
So let the fear go
Get up, get up
And show 'em what you're made of

The Fall
03:47
|
|||
-VERSE 1-
You've bought all the happiness
But you still want more
Parade all that you possess
Though there's no one keeping score
Dreaming of vertigo
From the highest fame
Feeling the undertow
When it starts to break
-CHORUS-
Everything will fall away
Someday
All that's real is what remains
To always
-VERSE 2-
A cage of the tangible
All you had to own
You poor social cannibal
What's left when you lose the throne
We're of the same affair
Pride before the fall
We'll see what's truly there
When it takes us all
-CHORUS-
Everything will fall away
Someday
All that's real is what remains
To always

Shoot Em Up
04:12
|
|||
-VERSE-
We'll put your picture on a magazine
Gotta get your face on a video screen
We'll make you famous if you're helping us out
Boost the ratings with the panic route
That's the way
That's the way
You gotta
Give 'em all a show
-PRE CHORUS-
Get your gun, get your gun baby
And shoot it up, shoot it up
-CHORUS-
We'll help you pull the trigger
We'll tell you what to say
Just leave it all up to us and
We'll help you make 'em pay
We'll help you pull the trigger
We'll tell you what to say
Just leave it all up to us and
We'll help you make 'em pay
-VERSE-
It doesn't matter if you disagree
We're making it hand over fist on tragedy
The revolution will be televised
But just the part that we can monetize
That's the way
That's the way
You gotta
Give 'em all a show
-PRE CHORUS-
Get your gun, get your gun baby
And shoot it up, shoot it up
-CHORUS-
We'll help you pull the trigger
We'll tell you what to say
Just leave it all up to us and
We'll help you make 'em pay
We'll help you pull the trigger
We'll tell you what to say
Just leave it all up to us and
We'll help you make 'em pay

10. |
||||
-VERSE-
Get what you give
I always say
Be careful who you trust
A friendly shiv
A sad cliche
The disingenuous
If what you see
Is what you get
You show a second face
It's treachery
In silhouette
So here's the coup de grace
-CHORUS-
You'll get what's coming to you
You'll get what's coming
-VERSE-
The quest for fame
Does not impress
If that's the model trait
A petty game
To dispossess
Who you manipulate
The veil is thin
And minimal
The key to your success
The plan to win
Political
It's who you suck the best
-CHORUS-
You'll get what's coming to you
You'll get what's coming

The Devil
03:59
|
|||
-VERSE-
Forcing of the hand
A whisper in the ear
Spirit of enabling
Sinister command
Of what I want to hear
I'm the only one who pulls my strings
-CHORUS-
I'm the devil
Living in the pride
I'm the devil
No one's hands are tied
I'm the devil
Damnation dignified
I'm the devil
And it's only me inside
-VERSE-
Why would you pretend
Your will is not your own
Claiming something pushed you there
Don't mean to condescend
But it's you and you alone
You're the architect of your despair
-CHORUS-
And I'm the devil
Living in the pride
I'm the devil
No one's hands are tied
I'm the devil
Damnation dignified
I'm the devil
And it's only me inside

Demon
04:55
|
|||
-VERSE-
I said
"Lord, lord, lord"
It's a long dark road
And my tongue's a sword
When speaking gold
In my deep down soul
I am flies and blood
And it's black as coal
In this heart of mud
-CHORUS-
And they say,
"You got a demon"
-VERSE-
And I'm home sweet home
Like a herd of swine
And the seeds I've sewn
Well they're mine all mine
They're down so low
In floorboard rest
There's a great big hole
Straight through my chest
-CHORUS-
And they say,
"You got a demon"
