The future five align. Empty promises find us all the time.
Would you put it all on the line for the lost and frozen years? Leave us the bastard sons. Leave us the broken ones- To fend for ourselves, one by one. An epitaph not worth looking back. Another sunset falls on red on black. We hit a wall of dotted lines. An epitaph not worth looking back. Post cards of dust on bones. If the bad news doesn't beat us home. A rusted chain of sympathy for time well wasted, losses faded. A rusted chain of sympathy for time well wasted, losses... |

Stripped to the bone
Left standing alone You want everything And find falling home Follow-- follow the hollow And now there's no one left to burn Nothing to lose, nothing to earn Did you find what you were looking for? Was the greed worth selling yourself for? A bloodlust so deep it cuts With the faith of a sadist's Healing touch And you follow the hollow Your life is wrapped around greed addiction And you follow the hollow Your life is wrapped around the things you need Addiction |

Keep your eyes on the trigger
And your mind on the ecstasy Just caress the emptiness Sit back and let it bleed We need salvation We need another god on the TV screen We need to believe Fill your pockets with other's casualties Just a talk show leaper prophecy Just caress the emptiness Sit back and let it bleed Can you show me happiness? Can you show me the other side of the prison chain? Can you show me primetime addiction? Sadistic delusion Our father, Our sponsor, Our cheap plastic figure Our father, Our sponsor Can you spare one more dollar? |

You are a servant to your god
You are a slave to a book You say you are just a messenger But you'll end up hooked This place feels like home Walls echo, screaming no This tough love feels Like I'm being choked Dependant on a whim Bow down before him You suckle righteousness And siphon lies This rope feels like home My mouth is gagged My hands are bound This tough love feels like I'm being drowned And in a daze one day You'll wake up old and gray And realize you've alienated Those who cared about you Say you will forgive me me again Your pride is the birth of your original sin Say I can be saved again Well I won't and I think you know Because of you This is not all for him It's for you The blessed father Tainted blood of a martyr |

Of a dying breed and a decaying seed
We've been watching for years Waiting for it to bleed Handshakes and contracts Just before they turn their backs We've played along for far too long We've played along for far too long We'll lay this down to waste We'll leave you with a bitter taste A long road no closer to home Long road and we know we're still alone We've played for far too long We hope you listen to at least this song Nothing but traces Countless empty faces With black lips A cold kiss Of rejection |

Shades of lies forming stained glass
The beauty of which distracts Until it shatters down Crashes down Those whose colors shown until now Accusations hurled at deaf ears A link that breaks by light let in The truth will surely fade Ever rolling waves Wash them away They'll run from light they helped hide Pointing fingers at each other Screaming Until the sound of truth subsides Screaming slowly turns to singing Songs of shadowing of lies Lies Rebuilding shadowing of lies Lies Circumstantial truth of compromise Lies Rebuilding shadowing of lies Lies Paling apathy for truth survives |

A sudden gasp for air
One false move A blank stare is waiting for you Try to piece it together But you haven't a clue A blank stare is waiting for you It sends an impulse out Desperately searching Feeding off remains of it all Another burning bridge Another casualty paid in full Just let it crumble down And put to memory Remains of the wasted years It wouldn't be the first time It's all come crashing down The awful truth is finally out It's worse than you thought Feeding off remains of wasted years |
