Hammers of our destinies
Smash us like collisions of planets
Fragile legs march to chaotic distance
Inching towards the end of our love as we know it
Time hasn't changed the weight of gravity
Time hasn't changed the wait
Countdown to expiration
My heart has not been sold
Or saved by your love
Obsession, self destruction
I'd burn it all for you
Damaged hypodermic sex
Lingers in the air until you reappear with it
And I feel an absence of self destruction
If I could have it all
It wouldn't be enough
If I had it all without you
My heart is the rising sun over abandoned skies
No longer wanted to light the earth
Left cold and unborn to the life below
Breathe the signs and the weight
Of calculated destiny
Although "...place and time are meaningless"
It would take an eternity
To replace the years of my life spent loving you
Time hasn't changed the weight of gravity
Time hasn't changed the wait
With a pen in my heart and a message to write
I can't pretend it's all for nothing or it's all been lost

I resort to impulse to escape the living
Facedown in your indifference
Waiting to fall in line
And I was never impressed
With your addiction to conscience
Pain has long been the lost humiliation of genius
And I've been misled to believe that I was alone
it always turns out better this way
Sedated so you won't have to feel a thing
I resort to impulse to escape the living
Counting the imperfections
Down the lines of my face
When all the regrets and failures
In you were so obvious
Pain has long been the lost humiliation of the soul
And I've been caught between
What's real and what's for sale
I'm not the one who profits
From stainless masquerades
I've come to terms with my fixations
And all your failing attempts
Faithful performances
The timelessness of your act
Won't be the end of me

Welcome to the inside
The dim light of revolution personified
Where your god is an assortment of colors and lines
In the city some days I hear the train coming
Like a three fold armageddon swallowing time
I feel the ocean coming alive
The rain falls like gunfire
And the sky falls apart
You are not who you say you are
I am counterfeit
We live on top of the most beautiful world
It's not real, we're running out of time as it is
I am counterfeit
Save your breath, save your breath
There are some places where the beauty does not reach
The rain storms flood the dead streets with innocent blood
Drowning your salvation in the undertow of your god
What have you become
I remember to tread water
I'm not breathing in
(Your sins show who you really are)
As I feel the ocean coming alive
I am less human inside
The streets run with the blood of the sanctified
Nothing has ever felt so cold as the silence tonight
In the city some days I hear the train coming
I am waiting to destroy this image of life
We live on top of the most beautiful world
It's not real, we're running out of time as it is
My name will crash these walls
And you will know my name is revolution
For the last time

It's been said that progress..
That is progress is the promise of annihilation
Prayers will burn and war will be a sign of the end
Until no one is left to medicate humanity of
The belief in the cure for the sickness which it taught
We are held hostage in the name of self denial
Consumed by the grace of God
We are held hostage in the name - rise and awake
The perception of our hell is their sleight of hand
Misdirecting our love into worship
Keep your finger on the pulse
'Cause the vein has been cut
And the blood has become my religion
I've replaced the walls of my defenses
Against the unaffected God infested portraits of fear and redemption
Rise and awake for this new offering of life
Rise for this new
For prison for church for saint for thief
The opiate of our sacred city
Mass media armed to the teeth
There is truth to burn
And a war in the streets

It's hard enough to pretend
That this quasi-cosmetic
Relationship's immune system is automatic
I've been so tragically fooled
Into believing that time is healing our wounds
While the remedy is looking at me looking at you
Pictures won't get me though this
Phone calls only make things worse
Permanent rescue from excuses better left unsaid
You hide your heart behind the thought of each sentence
Pictures won't get me through this
Phone calls only make things worse
You try to make it easier
But it won't stop me
What did you say
When it was already too late
What did you say
It's not what you think
What did you say when you try to speak
You suffocate
This conversation always ends in a hole
An apology is ended before it's begun
Your words hung by an umbilical cord
At any given second this womb could explode
What did you say
When it was already too late
What did you say
It's not what you think
What did you say when you try to speak
You suffocate
This is the love you say you want
This is the love you still don't know
This is the love you say you want
This is the love that leaves your heart broken

Prepare yourselves
A new war has come upon the sons of man
Lines have been drawn called to fire choked by thirst
We speak in terms of a forgotten world within ourselves
Take me alive I confess every fault of my heart
I am the ascent and the fall
Take me alive
I am the ascent and the fall
Held captive of judgment
The dead are guilty until proven innocent
Lives have been lost as teenage time bombs slit their wrists
In broken homes and mass detentions reality is lost
Take me alive I confess every fault of my heart
I am the ascent and the fall
Take me alive
I am the ascent and the fall
And I reject the labyrinth formed within me
I confess every mistake that I made
And I suppose you've been told
To open fire on your conviction
And I suppose that you'll surrender
Now that you've been warned
War has come upon the sons of man
We are called to fire and choked by thirst
We are called to fire within ourselves
Take me alive I confess every fault of my heart
I am the ascent and the fall
Take me alive
I am the ascent and the fall
Held captive of judgment I am the ascent
Held captive of judgment I am the fall

I walk
Inside a facelift
Made of conflict
The contents defeat the purpose
Because I live outside
A makeshift heart
It was always red plastic and cold
You've got to know your place in this...
I stick to the basic: intellect, substance, ambiance
With no poetry in my existence stuck going nowhere fast
I'm consciously falling out of love with myself
And the world with myself and my soul
I'm living for just one moment to die alone
You've got to know your place in this world
Your life won't disappear when your eyes are closed
Self is a statue in this world you crumble and fall
I sleep as if I was innocent
Not knowing what the world is made of
With one eye open I wouldn't dare to wake up
There are antenna in these veins
Trying to tell me something
Leave me under layers of dead skin
I'm invisible without them
I walk inside a facelift
Unknown outside of this shell
I'm not complete
I'm not complete

You only get one chance
I locked myself away in your hands
Time and again intoxicated by your scent
And I lost it, affection was force fed
Because it wasn't meant for me
You weren't meant for me
I keep a piece of your sincerity
Locked in vials of stress
Rope off the contempt
Tap the syringe
Leave your confession in my skin
You cried for me inside
I thought you die for me
I'm giving myself a second chance to explain
You said all the wrong things as I walked away
Here it comes again
I've been through the desert
On a horse with no name
I sleep in gasoline on a burning floor
So stop me if you've heard this one before
The green in complication
My static situation bends
To transpose my starving expectations end
The leeches spill infection
My reflection shows half a man
It's not enough you killed what I could have been
I'm giving myself a second chance to explain
You said all the wrong things as I walked away
Everyone I know seems to know me better than I know myself
They have no idea
It makes sense to feel pain
It makes sense to need pain
You only get once chance to decide
I guess I'll make up my mind when the time is right
You only get one chance to be alive
If your patience is waning it will only pass you by
It won't pass me by
And in the heart pounding end
The sun has not yet set
There is still a light that shines in the distance
I tried so hard to find the right thing
When I'm sorry is all I had to say
Maybe the pain was more than it seemed
I was awake trying to function in a dream
I want to walk with your hand in my hand
To find a place where this dream ends
And you and I begin

Praise the new drug!
Your routine is the latest trend
And you're wearing your enslavement
Like a prescription fashion statement
Hallelujah!
Your progress has been projected
To crash into this glass ceiling and burn
When this process fits you it will possess you
To reinvent the individualist
'Cause we are the living dead
Dreams fall apart into pieces
Before you know it, you've lost them
The dream has long been forgotten
The dream is dead
You've reached a new low
When this process fits you it will possess you
To reinvent the individualist
'Cause we are the living dead
Who fear not of man or God
Raise yourself up from the dead
So far you've been useless
Dreams fall apart
Reinvent

Hey kids! I don't think you're ready for this
Systematic rebirth
This is anything you want
Step right up, make your move
This is the primitive sound of the hunt
I've programmed this station to sit by and watch you bleed
Dead noise has been broadcast in our heads far too long
And it ends with the taste of your blood
It ends with the sound of your scream
I don't know the faces but I know the names
And I watch the shadows take shape
This time there is no prison to keep you alive and awake
This time there is no curtain to draw
Your dreams from physical reaction
Step right up, make your move
This is anything you want
Step right up, make your move
This is anything you want
The plug has been pulled from the wall
The battery is dead
Are you still afraid?
I don't know the faces but I know the names
And I watch the shadows take shape
This time there is no prison to keep you alive and awake
This time there is no curtain to draw
Your dreams from physical
Complications in our shadows
Lost in traveling the setting sun
Conversations behind closed doors
Caught in our heads to hear once more
