Nightmare

My dreams
Where have you gone?
It’s been so long
Where have you gone?

Wake me from this nightmare in wake
Whose thoughts are these
I never even knew my mind could go this low
Tell me that I’ll wake up it’ll be over
Please tell me what’s wrong with me
Not even the doc knows 

I feel so lost, feel all alone, nowhere to turn
No one else can fix me gotta’ solve this on my own
If I wanna get out alive it’s gotta be now

The dark is coming for me
The night is waking a monster inside me that’s tearing me apart at the seams
I’ll sew the hole where it left to stop the bleeding
Escaped a nightmare in wake and now I’m back in my dreams 

Wake me from this nightmare in wake
Inhale
Exhale
I need to make my mind unwind and let it breathe
Find another space where these ghosts can leave

In comes the meditation out with all the medication
I feel so lost, feel all alone, nowhere to turn
No one else can fix me gotta’ solve this on my own
Time to make my mind up if I want to get out alive
Time is now to try or die so stop knocking down death’s door

The dark is coming for me
The night is waking a monster inside me that’s tearing me apart at the seams
I’ll sew the hole where it left to stop the bleeding
Escaped a nightmare in wake and now I’m back in my dreams 

I gotta’ escape this
I gotta’ escape this

Wake up from this nightmare in wake

Where have you gone?
It’s been so long
When said and done
It’s undone

The dark is coming for me
The night is waking a monster inside me that’s tearing me apart at the seams
I’ll sew the hole where it left to stop the bleeding
Escaped a nightmare in wake and now I’m back in my dreams

Batshit

The first time I laid my eyes on her I thought damn do I want it
Now that I’ve got it
Oh no

She knew exactly what cards to play to make me want her even more
Now that I’ve got it
Oh no 

Everyone else around me said run as fast as you can
Didn’t hear a word past sex but the next thing I knew she was

Pounding my door down in the rain screaming my name
She’s gonna’ take me dead or alive
Bitch bat shit crazy

Said I’m over it but she just ain’t having it
She says but I’m one of a kind
Bitch bat shit crazy

Now he’s the only one I can see without starting up World War 3
A promise forever just you and me

Everyone else around me slowly started vanishing
Erases faces from my life he’s so immature

Ignoring warning signs around me
Caught up inside her bed
But now I’m all alone with the hell inside her head

Pounding my door down in the rain screaming my name
She’s gonna’ take me dead or alive
Bitch bat shit crazy

Said I’m over it but she just ain’t having it
She says but I’m one of a kind
Bitch bat shit crazy

Pounding my door down in the rain screaming my name
Bitch bat shit crazy
Said I’m over it but he just ain’t having it
Bitch bat shit crazy

She said they’ll drop like flies
Boy don’t bring your friends around me then I can’t hide my lies

She said off with your head
Boy you think it’s that easy to leave me gonna’ end up dead

Pounding my door down in the rain screaming my name
She’s gonna’ take me dead or alive
Bitch bat shit crazy

Said I’m over it but she just ain’t having it
She says but I’m one of a kind
Bitch bat shit crazy

Unbreakable

Cruisin’ through life with my worries low
When suddenly a nightmare struck a blow
It tried to count me out and write me off
But the ones that I care for bring me back to life
It can break my body but it can’t break the rest of me

Every morning the sun rises
Another battle has been won
Today might bring some surprises
But defeating me won’t be one

Round for round it’s getting brutal now
But hit after hit I refuse the ground
It’s hard to say who will come out on top
But I’ve learned it’s a choice to become unbreakable
It can break my body but it can’t break the rest of me

Every morning the sun rises
Another battle has been won
Today might bring some surprises
But defeating me won’t be one

They say keep enemies near
They say keep enemies near

Face your fear, face your fear and you can laugh in the face of fear

Don’t let it go
Don’t let go
Don’t let it go
Go to your head
Don’t let it go to your head
Don’t let it go
Don’t let go
Don’t let it go
Go to your head

Every morning the sun rises
Another battle has been won
Today might bring some surprises
But defeating me won’t be one
But defeating me won’t be one
But defeating me won’t

Face your fear, face your fear and you can laugh in the face of fear

They say keep enemies near
They say keep enemies near

Immortal

Sometimes it all comes crashing down at me it feels so hard to breathe
The enemy is hiding beneath the deep
Voices in my head urge me to run
What I’m running from is not the problem a vision I can’t see

I’m keeping my head above water
And my eyes are on the prize that amounts
The past may have left you so broken
You know and I know it’s about where we’ve been

Fighting to break the grip of the serpent wrapped around my neck
I touch the skin but leave no trace
Voices in my head urge me to run
The message defies me

I’m keeping my head above water
And my eyes are on the prize that amounts
The past may have left you so broken
You know and I know it’s about where we’ve been

I’m keeping my head above water
I’m keeping my head above water

I will not, I will not die defeated
I will not, I will not die defeated

I’m keeping my head above water
And my eyes are on the prize

I’m keeping my head above water
And my eyes are on the prize that amounts
The past may have left you so broken
You know and I know it’s about where we’ve been

I will not, I will not
You know and I know
I will not, I will not die defeated

Bullets & Bandages

We’ve got a talent seeing our flaws as fireman puttin’ out the sun for glare
It might impair but at least we won’t see enough to care
They cut off our talons, pulling our eyes from the truth while they poison the air
And what we share is that we don’t know better than this

So here I come towards the burning flame
Here I come

Sometimes it’s something we love that knocks us down
I’m too addicted to quit
But you’ve got the bullets and bandages
You’ve got the bullets and bandages

We’re loving something but we can’t understand how why or when
We made our beds but we don’t know how we got tied up
Our chests are beating we stand up for our friends but never for ourselves in the end
Cause it’s so lovely feeling safe even when it’s pretend

So here I come towards the burning flame
So here I come

Sometimes it’s something we love that knocks us down
I’m too addicted to quit
But you’ve got the bullets and bandages
You’ve got the bullets and bandages

I hope you’re already gone
‘Cause you know, you know I’m moving on

Moving on
I’m moving on
I’m moving on

Sometimes it’s something we love that knocks us down
I’m too addicted to quit
You’ve got the bullets and bandages
You’ve got the bullets and bandages

You’ve got the bullets and bandages
You’ve got the bullets and bandages
Sometimes it’s something we love that knocks us down
I’m too addicted to quit

The Call of Gaia

I gave you rise from the dust
But now you’ve turned on me
I feel the rising of disease
The burn is 3rd degree
Scaring my skin the cycle’s on repeat
You’re throwing away your only place to stay
And it’s all because of greed

I wonder if you know you put me through this
If you don’t change I will retaliate
I’ll shake you off, shake you off
To clear the slate
I don’t need your saving I can save myself
I’ll save myself from you

Your I need this I want that now mentality is killin’ me
I gave you everything I have
What is there left to say?
Scaring my skin the cycle’s on repeat
When will you wake up?  I am beautiful, I’m complex, I’m alive

I wonder if you know you put me through this
If you don’t change I will retaliate
I’ll shake you off, shake you off
To clear the slate
I don’t need your saving I can save myself
I’ll save myself from you

Chipping away at me with no regard
Chipping away at your life support

I know there’s potential
Think of your future
But you keep falling short
But you keep falling short

But you keep falling short!

I never thought it would go this far
I’ll give you one last chance
So take your last chance
And make a change
Or take your LAST DANCE

You know you put me through this
If you don’t change I will retaliate
I’ll shake you off, shake you off
To clear the slate
I don’t need your saving I can save myself

Afterglow

There’s parts of my past that I’d like to never say
I’ve taken risks that put others in harms way
Betrayed the ones I care about
Thinking only of my self felt lonely

I wish I knew what I know now when I was young
I wish I knew it can’t be undone
I wish I knew what I know right now when I was young

I’ve spoken lies just to create a disguise
I’ve brought tears down from my mothers own eyes
You’ve got my word
Never hurt again
Finally through my mistakes I see clear

I wish I knew what I know now when I was young

I wish I knew what I know now when I was young
I wish I knew it can’t be undone
I wish I knew what I know right now when I was young

I finally see so clear now
I’m only human after all

I finally see so clear now
I’m only human after all

I wish I knew what I know now when I was young
I wish I knew it can’t be undone
I wish I knew what I know right now when I was young

Gravity

Passing through the seasons in life so lifelessly
Still searching in the cold
You brought summer and now I’m revived
Together we’ll grow old
Infinitely
Here or another space
Your gravity
Is pulling on me

There’s something I see deep within your eyes
You show me we’re more than alive
After this world there will be no goodbyes

Just the feeling when I taste the wine on your lips
Can fuel the fire
There’s something true in you I can’t miss
It lifts me higher
Infinitely
Here or another space
Your Gravity
Is pulling

There’s something I see deep within your eyes
You show me we’re more than alive
After this world there will be no goodbyes

Your gravity
Your gravity grounds me
Gravity is pulling on me

There’s something I see deep within your eyes
You show me we’re more than alive
After this world there will be no goodbyes

There’s something I see deep within your eyes
You show me we’re more than alive
After this world there will be no goodbyes

Oh, Erica

We’ve lost all control
Now they walk on us, then walk on carelessly
Con artist of the century
Do you have nothing to say?
For the pain you caused for you own personal gain
We know there’s nothing left of empathy

Will we fade?
We need a vision, not division

Outside she’s a Marilyn
Inside there’s a Medusa
Don’t let her turn you to stone
Yeah she’s a Marilyn
Inside there’s a Medusa
Stuck in our ways will we always stay there?

They kiss sanity goodbye and welcome madness with hello (hello, hello)
A tomorrow we don’t wanna’ know
Something in the way of the dream we used to be that’s haunting me (Woah, Woah)
A nightmare where we aren’t free
Will we fade?
Don’t fade away

Outside she’s a Marilyn
Inside there’s a Medusa
Don’t let her turn you to stone
Yeah she’s a Marilyn
Inside there’s a Medusa
Stuck in our ways will we always stay there?

Stuck in our ways will we always stay there?
Will we fade until we’re not even a memory?

You remind me of someone else
Who turns everyone she knows to stone and lives alone

Outside she’s a Marilyn
Inside there’s a Medusa
Don’t let her turn you to stone
Outside she’s a Marilyn
Inside there’s a Medusa
Whatever happened to home?

Outside there’s a Marilyn
Inside there’s a Medusa
Stuck in our ways will we always stay there?
Stuck in our ways will we always stay there?

Welcome to the Show

Ever feel like life is passing you by?
No matter what you try you can’t turn back the hands of time
Technology surely consuming me
Soaked in light from the TV I’m like a zombie

Get up get out there’s so much more
Waiting behind the door

So live now
‘Cause everybody knows we’re all living in a silver screen
Live now.

I know that I should stay away from you
There’s something about this
Let’s go
I’m in case of emergency

Break glass and bring down the flames
This has been a taste of my own medicine
And this doesn’t taste all too great
I’m not enjoying this

Whoa
Why are the ones that you want the ones you can’t have and
I know the place that you’re in ‘cause I built it
American Psycho

Whoa
Why are the ones that you want the ones you can’t have and
I know the place that you’re in ‘cause I built it
American Psycho

I know as soon as I let go
The gravity will kick in
Let go
I wish that I could turn things around

Break glass and bring down the flames
This has been a taste of my own medicine
And this doesn’t taste all too great
I’m not enjoying this

Ahh

Whoa
Why are the ones that you want the ones you can’t have and
I know the place that you’re in ‘cause I built it
American Psycho

Whoa
Why are the ones that you want the ones you can’t have and
I know the place that you’re in ‘cause I built it
American Psycho

If only I wasn’t livin’ on the other side
I would have seen it comin’
If only I had kept my mouth shut
It wouldn’t be the end of this but
The words are falling like a broken dam and goddamn
You’re choking on a loaded gun

If only I wasn’t livin’ on the other side
I would have seen it coming
It’s a taste of my own medicine

Why won’t you let me in?
Why won’t you let me win?

Whoa
Why are the ones that you want the ones you can’t have and
I know the place that you’re in ‘cause I built it
American Psycho

Whoa
Why are the ones that you want the ones you can’t have and
I know the place that you’re in ‘cause I built it
American Psycho

Through The Seams

Nothing compares to the freedom before we grew
No more worries, we could be just me and you
But now each day is getting pulled further away
Cause we are burning like a wick that meets the flame
Let’s slow it down

We can disappear for another year
And get lost in ourselves
Let’s do the things that make me and you
Let’s leave it all behind
And get lost in ourselves
And do the things that make me and you
Let’s get lost in ourselves
Do the things that make me and you

Why not take some time and find what’s hidden in everything
And why not travel to the places to you unseen
We could stay up sharing voices from what we have dreamed
We are burning like a candle melting through the seams

We can disappear for another year
And get lost in ourselves
Let’s do the things that make me and you
Let’s leave it all behind
And get lost in ourselves
And do the things that make me and you

Woah, woah, woah, for another year
Woah, woah, woah, for another year

It’s coming up from being down that makes you feel so good
It’s coming up from being down that makes you feel so good
And now I’m longing to be where I should
And we can run away

We can disappear for another year
And get lost in ourselves
Let’s do the things that make me and you
Let’s leave it all behind

And get lost in ourselves
And do the things that make me and you

Woah, woah, woah, for another year
Woah, woah, woah, the things that make me and you

We can disappear for another year
And get lost in ourselves
Let’s do the things that make me and you
Let’s leave it all behind
And get lost in ourselves
And do the things that make me and you

R.E.D.

Another day, another night I know I’m not alright
Searching for what I am and how I can become alive
The feeling of feeling alone can be frightening at first
You never know who you could be until you dare to see

In a world so black and white I’ll remain being red
I’ll keep the blood pumping strong so I don’t feel so dead
I’ll be the brave, I’ll be the brave
In a world so black and white I’ll remain being red

Another day another night I feel the pressure on me
You try to turn me into something I will never be
The feeling of feeling alone turns into bravery
You never know who you could be until you dare to see

In a world so black and white I’ll remain being red
I’ll keep the blood pumping strong so I don’t feel so dead
I’ll be the brave, I’ll be the brave
In a world so black and white I’ll remain being red

I’m feeling the color come back to my face
Like I have been out in the cold for too long
But now I am back in the warmth here to stay
And there’s no changing that

Whoa . . . I won’t let you make me (Let you make me)
No . . . Or let you break me (Let you break me)

In a world so black and white I’ll remain being red
I’ll keep the blood pumping strong so I don’t feel so dead
I’ll be the brave, I’ll be the brave
In a world so black and white I’ll remain being red

A Phoenix Will Rise

This never ending ride
Ended to our surprise
We felt electrified and then the fire died
How we see our future isn’t always right
We’re sorting through the ashes in these changing times
A phoenix will rise

Here’s to breaking through all the walls this time
Make a fire lit from embers that were left behind
I know I will never be the same again
Never be the same again

Our brotherhood
The blood and tears
Throughout the years has led us here

Our brotherhood
The blood and tears
Washed away our fears from this new road
A phoenix will rise

Here’s to breaking through all the walls this time
Make a fire lit from embers that were left behind
I know I will never be the same again
Never be the same again

Let the fire spread
Let the fire spread
Let the fire spread
Let the fire spread

If there was ever a time to dare it’s now

Like a phoenix we’ll rise from the ashes

Here’s to breaking through all the walls this time
Make a fire lit from embers that were left behind
I know I will never be the same again
Never be the same again

Break Away

You never see what I see
The weight you’re putting on me
We never seem to see eye to eye
I keep running away
But I’m so quick to return
This battle in me is starting to burn
As I walk beside you
You try to take my feet right out from underneath me and I wonder
How many times will I fall?
You’re no good, I need out

Gotta break away, Gotta break away
You bring me down, You’re so contagious
Gotta break away, Gotta break away
We’ve had enough, yeah we wont take this

I built these walls to protect and try to keep out the wolves
Even though I built this place bullet proof
You’re toxic and you want to eat me alive from the inside
You’re no good, I need out

Gotta break away, Gotta break away
You bring me down, You’re so contagious
Gotta break away, Gotta break away
We’ve had enough, yeah we wont take this

Whoa we won’t take this
Whoa we won’t take this

Gotta break away, Gotta break away
We’ve had enough, yeah we wont take this
You wont bring me down

Gotta run, gotta run while I still can
Before it gets too late, before it’s too late

Gotta break away, Gotta break away
You bring me down, You’re so contagious
Gotta break away, Gotta break away
We’ve had enough, yeah we wont take this

Whoa we won’t take this
Whoa we won’t take this

Gotta break away, Gotta break away
We’ve had enough, yeah we wont take this

Square One

In the beginning it felt so right
You opened up my eyes to an exhilarating time
In-between your sheets
It felt just like the world could fade away
But we’d still be okay
Slowly you started showing your colors
That were hidden so well
But I don’t seem to care when no ones watching
I was under your spell

You take over my mind
I’m like a moth towards light
I say no but my body can’t fight
I swore that was the last time
I swore that I was done
How did I end up back at square one

Something about the guilt
A.K. the guillotine
Regret runs through my head but it can’t overtake
The want to try to relive tasting your lips
I know I’m smarter than this
But I’m under your spell

You take over my mind
I’m like a moth towards light
I say no but my body can’t fight
I swore that was the last time
I swore that I was done
How did I end up back at square one

I’d try to run but you’d come catch me
I’d try to hide but you’d come find me (x4)

You take over my mind
I’m like a moth towards light
I say no but my body can’t fight
I swore that was the last time
I swore that I was done
How did I end up back at square one

You take over my mind
I’m like a moth towards light
I say no but my body can’t fight
I swore that was the last time
I swore that I was done
How did I end up back at square one

Blackout

I know this thirst that I quench only lasts so long
Before I go at it again
I love it, I hate it, the prize isn’t worth the risk
It’s not just a game it’s a hunt
It’s going down
What’s going down next is a little more profound
Yeah!

You walk into the room
I can tell what’s on your mind
I try to look away but I loose that fight every time
Your eyes are set to kill
One this blackout kind of night
I better play my cards right

Not you again

I know the moment I run you won’t let me quit
You enjoy this hold you have on me
I love it, I hate it, fearing for my life
It’s not just a game it’s a hunt
It’s going down
What’s going down next is a little more profound

You walk into the room
I can tell what’s on your mind
I try to look away but I loose that fight every time
Your eyes are set to kill
One this blackout kind of night
I better play my cards right

Let go
Let go for a change
Let go
Let go for a chance to survive

You walk into the room
I can tell what’s on your mind
I try to look away but I loose that fight every time
Your eyes are set to kill
One this blackout kind of night
I better play my cards right
I better play my cards right
On this blackout kind of night

Fake

The truth will hurt when you find out exactly what you are
When you only care about yourself
The trust we shared has been shattered to pieces like stone to glass
Should have never let you in the pack
I made a mistake by thinking you had my back

I will reveal the fake you have become
Your words spill blood like bullets from a gun
I see right through your mask and you
I will destroy the fake you have become

You hold a pose so you won’t stand out
Disguised and all alone
You can’t hide for long I’ll find you out
How can you look into the mirror and see the person staring back
Over time the truth always breaks through
I made a mistake by thinking you had my back
I made a mistake by thinking you had my back

I will reveal the fake you have become
Your words spill blood like bullets from a gun
I see right through your mask and you
I will destroy the fake you have become

Nothing left inside you but plastic pieces glued
So I won’t feel as bad when I destroy you

Fake
Get out. Get out.
Fake
Get out. Get out.

Nothing left inside you but plastic pieces glued
So I won’t feel as bad when I destroy you

I will reveal the fake you have become
Your words spill blood like bullets from a gun
I see right through your mask and you
I will destroy the fake you have become
Fake
Get out. Get out.
