<p>Born of dust and stone<br />
Dead hearts, roaming a dying home<br />
Life leaves us all, white bones<br />
Upon the shores of time<br />
We are but sparks in a darkened world<br />
And yet some things were born to burn</p>
<p>The napalm in your eyes<br />
Is all my cold heart needs<br />
If you bring the matches<br />
I’ll bring the gasoline<br />
I’m the same bad news as you<br />
You’re the same kind of fucked as me<br />
I’m the same bad news as you<br />
You’re the same, you’re the same as me</p>

Old Ghost / New Regrets
<p>Forever fucked<br />
We wage a war of suffering a deceit<br />
100 thousand years of dreaming, drowned in a flood of fear and greed<br />
Precious heritage laid waste before the chainsaws snarling teeth<br />
Bleed the earth, bleed her ‘til her heart no longer beats</p>
<p>And still we wonder why<br />
As the ground beneath our feet turns to dust<br />
The air we breathe, laced with poisons<br />
A legacy of disgust<br />
A legacy of sorrow<br />
So we’re born with nothing and we die alone</p>
<p>We’re born with nothing<br />
And we die alone<br />
Regret is all we have<br />
Death is all we know</p>
<p>Forever fucked<br />
Eradicate the truths of history<br />
Train our eyes, train our minds so we no longer see the casualties<br />
Countless cultures murdered, generations stolen and deceived<br />
No guilt to bear<br />
Born to consume, to breed, to deny all that keeps us free</p>
<p>We’re born with nothing and we die alone<br />
Forever fucked</p>

Dream Run
<p>Do you remember all those nights<br />
When we stood side by side<br />
And we said, “we’ll save the goodbyes”<br />
The night is young<br />
We still have time</p>
<p>In my dreams I see it ending<br />
I see the sky descending<br />
And I let the sadness empty from my heart<br />
‘Cause in my dreams I feel I’m falling<br />
And I hear the darkness calling<br />
Don’t wake me up until the morning’s light</p>
<p>Because I’ve never felt more alive</p>
<p>Do you remember all those nights<br />
When we stood side by side<br />
And we said, “we’ll save the goodbyes”<br />
The night is young</p>
<p>Well I never want to press rewind<br />
Every mistake that lead us here<br />
I wouldn’t change for anything<br />
Dear girl, there is a world that stands between us and them<br />
See this was never about giving up, just giving in</p>
<p>Because you only live once<br />
But you spend your whole life dying<br />
So when it all comes crashing, know you’re not alone</p>
<p>We welcome death with all our sins<br />
There is no fear when this life ends</p>
<p>Do you remember</p>
<p>Do you remember all those nights<br />
When we stood side by side<br />
And we said, “we’ll save the goodbyes”<br />
The night is young<br />
We still have time </p>
<p>‘Cause I’ve never felt more alive</p>

Wild Eyes
<p>We build our dreams from the ashes of your nightmares<br />
Carry our father’s sins from the cradle to the grave<br />
We blaze our path through the darkness that you left us in<br />
Now we ride in the belly of the beast<br />
We are the diamonds that choose to stay coal<br />
A generation born to witness the end of the world</p>
<p>Against the grain<br />
Against the odds<br />
Against the world<br />
Forever the underdogs</p>
<p>We are the bastard sons<br />
We are the ones that refused to grow cold<br />
We are the thorn in your side<br />
We are the thieves in the night<br />
And we’re coming to take what’s ours</p>
<p>No regrets<br />
We inherit the sins of the fathers, now reap the vengeance</p>
<p>From the ashes of your nightmares<br />
From the cradle to the grave<br />
We blaze our path through the darkness that you left us in<br />
Now we ride in the belly of the beast<br />
We are the diamonds that choose to stay coal<br />
A generation born to witness the end of the world</p>
<p>Born to witness the end of the world</p>
<p>Viva the underdogs</p>

Dark Days
<p>What will you tell your children when they ask you “what went wrong”<br />
How can you paint a picture of a paradise lost<br />
To eyes that know only a wasteland<br />
How will you justify watching the world die</p>
<p>The clock is ticking, can’t you feel our days are numbered<br />
Head first into disaster from which there will be no return<br />
With narrow minds we decimate our one true home<br />
Cast into oblivion, judgement is calling</p>
<p>Behold the pale horse<br />
This is the funeral of the Earth<br />
Behold the pale horse<br />
This is the funeral</p>
<p>The blind eye can no longer be cast<br />
The clock is ticking, there is no second chance</p>
<p>The blind eye can no longer be cast<br />
There will be no future, if we can’t learn from our mistakes<br />
The clock is ticking, there is no second chance<br />
There will be no future, if we can’t learn</p>
<p>A forced extinction closes out the age of apathy<br />
The final act, sacrifice the world’s ecology<br />
The death of beauty, the death of hope<br />
Cast before the throne of avarice, judgement is calling</p>
<p>Behold the pale horse<br />
This is the funeral of the Earth<br />
Behold the pale horse<br />
This is the funeral </p>
<p>The blind eye can no longer be cast<br />
There will be no future, if we can’t learn from our mistakes<br />
The clock is ticking, there is no second chance<br />
There will be no future, if we can’t learn</p>
<p>I can’t watch it burn</p>
<p>Behold the pale horse</p>

The River
<p>Follow your heart to the water<br />
Fill your pockets with stone<br />
Throw your arms around me<br />
Never let me go</p>
<p>You were the first, you wouldn’t be the last<br />
What the river took, we could never replace<br />
And as the pain set in so did the realisation<br />
You were never coming home<br />
For nights we lay awake<br />
Wishing for answers, hoping against all hope<br />
And if love could change the course of fate<br />
These nights, we move mountains<br />
But as the news filtered down the line, the impact shook us<br />
Shook us to the core<br />
Loss struck like a dagger in our aching hearts</p>
<p>So follow your heart to the water<br />
Fill your pockets with stone<br />
Throw your arms around me<br />
Never let me go</p>
<p>It’s not the years in your life, it’s the life in your years</p>
<p>Old soul, so it’s said<br />
The day we lost is the day I found regret<br />
Not in the waters that embraced you<br />
But in the wake your absence left</p>
<p>Sink into me</p>
<p>Hold out your hands, sink into me<br />
Hold out your hands, I’ll take you away<br />
Hold out your hands, surrender the weight of this world</p>
<p>Follow your heart to the water<br />
Fill your pockets with stone<br />
Throw your arms around me<br />
Never let me go</p>
<p>Never let me go</p>

Swing
<p>This soul was born for battle<br />
My heart was built for war<br />
These eyes see through the lies<br />
Filled with disgust</p>
<p>Strip back the utopian rhetoric<br />
And you’ll find a sickness at the core<br />
A septic carcass rotting out<br />
Filled with disgust</p>
<p>We are the dead<br />
Empty lives, empty heads<br />
Guilty is as guilty fucking does<br />
Filled with disgust</p>
<p>All we have to believe are the lies that they feed us<br />
All we have to choose is the right to obey</p>
<p>Pray this time will be our mark on history<br />
When the shadow games and agendas<br />
Are wiped the fuck away</p>
<p>There is no such thing as different shades of truth<br />
It’s black or white, do or die<br />
Filled with disgust</p>
<p>You tie your noose with your lies but the world keeps turning<br />
“Swing low” we cry but the world keep turning<br />
Turning without you</p>
<p>It keeps turning without you</p>
<p>‘Cause all we have to believe are the lies that they feed us<br />
Born for battle<br />
All we have to choose is the right to obey<br />
Built for war</p>
<p>This soul was born for battle<br />
My heart was built for war</p>
<p>Swing motherfuckers</p>
<p>End it</p>
<p>Built for war<br />
Built for fucking war</p>

The Slow Surrender
<p>You’ve got to fight for your life<br />
There is nothing to fear but fear itself<br />
The Devil dances in idle minds</p>
<p>Fight for your life</p>
<p>I won’t turn back now<br />
This will be no slow surrender<br />
I won’t turn back now<br />
Carpe Diem, straight for the throat</p>
<p>Conflict, the all-consuming pain<br />
Time lost will never be regained<br />
Don’t waste your breath<br />
You can’t save your strength<br />
The battle rages in the here and now<br />
See every second that you waste<br />
Is time you’ll never live again</p>
<p>Fight for your life<br />
Fight for your fucking life</p>
<p>There is a price to pay<br />
Death is a heartbeat away</p>
<p>The Devil dances in idle minds</p>
<p>Fight for your life </p>
<p>I won’t turn back now<br />
This will be no slow surrender<br />
I won’t turn back now<br />
Carpe Diem, I gotta go straight for the throat</p>
<p>The Devil dances in idle minds</p>

Atlas
<p>My life is weathered down shipwreck<br />
Splitting at the seams, held together by memories and dreams<br />
Every face I have seen, a stitch on my mind<br />
On a shadow of a dream</p>
<p>And my heart is its cargo, a worn out old thing<br />
Been dragged around this rock more times than you’d believe<br />
To the east I call home<br />
But the west, she is calling<br />
From the north, to the south<br />
Forever I’m drifting away<br />
With more hope than fear<br />
Put your head to my chest and you will hear</p>
<p>The sound of it beating<br />
Is the sound of love leaving<br />
The sound of it beating<br />
Is the sound of the emptiness flooding in</p>
<p>Flooding in<br />
It’s the sound of the emptiness flooding in</p>
<p>And my life, it aches<br />
And my heart, it breaks<br />
And I just can’t shake the feeling all I am is sinking<br />
While one thousand eyes stare back at me<br />
But the ones that I’d die for are the ones I can’t see </p>
<p>Flooding in</p>
<p>It’s the sound of the emptiness</p>

Sleight of Hand
<p>No comfort</p>
<p>Fear, in the face of the unknown<br />
Born to die in a lonely world<br />
Hostility, breeds within the void<br />
Left by the loss of understanding<br />
Hatred, the true face of ignorance<br />
Force-fed to the masses with the promise of salvation<br />
Knowledge controlled, power withheld<br />
In the name of one, let all blood spill</p>
<p>There is no god, that could love this world</p>
<p>I find no comfort<br />
In a life lived on my knees<br />
No comfort<br />
Devine judgement, I could never believe<br />
No comfort<br />
I could never believe</p>
<p>To live a life without regret<br />
Is it not enough<br />
To love, and to be loved</p>
<p>Nothing lasts forever<br />
Nothing lasts<br />
Superstition rules in the land of the weak</p>
<p>Fear, in the face of the unknown<br />
Born to die in a lonely world<br />
Hostility, breeds within the void<br />
Left by the loss of understanding<br />
Hatred, the true face of ignorance<br />
Force-fed to the masses with the promise of salvation<br />
Knowledge controlled, power withheld<br />
In the name of one, let all blood spill</p>
<p>There is no god<br />
That could love this world</p>
<p>I find no comfort</p>

Snake Oil and Holy Water
<p>You want a piece of my mind, there is no peace to find<br />
This is all of your doubt repaid in kind<br />
I am alone in crowded rooms<br />
I am a ghost in forgotten tombs<br />
Widow maker, you’re no company to keep</p>
<p>‘Cause you can fool some people, sometimes<br />
But you can’t fool the world for the rest of your life<br />
You can fool some people, sometimes<br />
But you can’t fool the world</p>
<p>Nobody notices, nobody cares<br />
The curtain falls to no one, no where<br />
Nobody notices, nobody cares<br />
As the curtain falls</p>
<p>Soulless, spineless<br />
Cut from the beggar’s cloth<br />
You fill your skull with their shit ‘til it runs from your mouth<br />
Heartless, carcass<br />
I’ve seen more life in dead men’s eyes<br />
I’ve heard more truths alone with the night</p>
<p>And I’d rather believe in nothing than believe in a fucking lie<br />
I’d sooner fail one thousand times than regret I never tried</p>
<p>‘Cause you can fool some people, sometimes<br />
But you can’t fool the world for the rest of your life<br />
You can fool some people, sometimes<br />
But you can’t fool the world</p>
<p>You can’t fool us all<br />
You howl at the world, but speak a dead language<br />
You’re selling your soul, but no one is buying<br />
You pray to your gods of fashion and industry<br />
Heads in the clouds, but you live on your fucking knees</p>
<p>Nobody notices, nobody cares<br />
The curtain falls to no one, no where<br />
Nobody notices, nobody cares<br />
As the curtain fucking falls</p>
<p>Soulless, spineless<br />
Cut from the beggar’s cloth<br />
You fill your head with their shit ‘til it runs from your mouth<br />
Heartless, carcass<br />
I’ve seen more life in dead men’s eyes<br />
I’ve heard more truths alone with the night</p>
<p>No peace to find</p>

Blue and the Grey
<p>Dear sky,<br />
Dear sky don’t cry for me, be the hope I could never reach<br />
Cold sea, please don’t let me sink<br />
Wrap your arms around me and carry me home</p>
<p>I stood at the shore and spoke to the ocean<br />
I stood in the water and let my guts spill<br />
I said “You and me, we’re not so different, I see my reflection in all that you do”</p>
<p>We both keep our secrets<br />
We’re both, oh so blue<br />
My heart is full of darkness<br />
I know that yours is too</p>
<p>I sat on the rooftop and screamed at the sky<br />
I sat on the edge until I knew deep inside<br />
Like the sky, I will always be empty<br />
The horizon, my love, forever just out of reach</p>
<p>We both keep our secrets<br />
We’re both, oh so blue<br />
My heart is full of darkness<br />
I know that yours is too</p>
<p>Distance was born when the sea and the sky grew apart<br />
Loneliness was born the day I let you go<br />
I let you go</p>
<p>So now I stand at the shore and speak to the ocean<br />
I stand in the water and let my guts spill</p>
<p>We both keep our secrets<br />
We’re both, oh so blue<br />
My heart is full of darkness<br />
I know that yours is too</p>
<p>Dear sky,<br />
Dear sky don’t cry for me, be the hope I could never reach<br />
Cold sea, please don’t let me sink<br />
Wrap your arms around me and carry me home</p>
<p>Dear Sky</p>
