Invaders 02:57
Soon I’ll come back down Leading on I’m safe and sound This mind frame had its storm Pacified till it’s begun Been meddling for so long Parts of me becoming drenched by every ounce Just stare into these eyes Voices fuel the war Warn me I’ve been wrong Ostracized by time alone but I just clearly want it Tall, tall closing walls This sad devotion marches through all I don’t need it, resign Will you fall, will you laugh? Will you blame it on my fate? Lonely hearts rarely bleed to see the sunshine Will you crawl, will you stand? Will you hold me till I break? Can’t retreat, can’t just turn it off Invaders Countdown to the hour Destination known Inject the fire to pure denial and I didn’t even want it Tall, tall burning walls Now derailed, will crush and surround I don’t hear it, resign

So Perfect 03:49
Are you sad? Shoulder to cry on? Pat on the back, oh you couldn't resist For a cost, two hearts will beat Find a friend amongst the dead I will do it any way Tear you from the inside, overcome I will do it any way You're so perfect for me You're so perfect but I don't I want you Lasted the night, midnight is calm Bite into the past as it reels you in Can’t allow a moment too weak Scream alone, sink deep in your bed So you see, you killed me Not even a care, reset the hour
3.
The pressure’s on play Making it my own slave A painted smile, you’re fessing up A concept that I’ve conceived Target, watch it sprout , confess too late Come off this crying Your cloak and dagger Needing a mind of better state The start of the line once through Facing, this falling out of grace To find a better way Your words to me prove to be unsound The weapon a shroud Straighten up, mark it unfair The meaning wears thin Self-made brawl, without near restraint Lean in, make a move, tear silently Think it out, your troubles will dilate Opponents fascinate
4.
Wither 03:41
We were two lovers With the same self-destruction And then all aspirations stowed Hence it is colder The drama ends a debate It is so exhausting when no one hears you scream What's the matter with me? What's the matter with you? So wishful when you reached the top and fell Oh can I be the one to carry the weight of your silence? This re-negotiation will unfold Stuck here in second place Hating myself to be loved by you So let's go at it backwards If you change, I'll be gone So let's forget about it And just wash the damage away I'd rather be nothing than be just like you I'll stay out of harm's way Healing time a friend I shed, am validated You have torn me down
5.
Wear your conscience gown You set up the fences Step up to your mound, a mental sore Now you’ve paced too far Thought that you could simply fool a player A past need has now turned hungry Read the beaming sensor Fired up, now find a measure Best times are under pressure For once just mean it Just speak your mind right now So let’s break it down These poor acts are senseless Love your voice’s sound, the centre core Bring you up to par Think that you will need more than a prayer Your running mouth’s not worth a penny
6.
Jerk 03:21
A headache gained, living through the masquerades Our thoughts are disconnecting soon A climbing doom, our own worlds apart Never thrived on driving you away So here we are with each other I can’t believe the things that I’ve put you through I was a jerk like so many others But every day I keep falling for you You called my game and to me it was all the same Left in the dust, misleading you This time’s for real, no more words to spare I’ll never let you go again So here we are with each other I can’t believe the shit that I’ve put you through I was a jerk like all of the others But to this day I’m still falling for you
7.
Intentions turn Desire’s deep within you Your patience sits on the edge of a wire Heard enough You seem to do well on your own It’s come over me Take me far away from here The shadows of our lives to be Simple things unclear Hide from these sore eyes to see Far away from here There should be a place for us to go Endless Light years from what was once home Malicious lure Inner aura surfaces soon A breathing fire, vengeance resides and still controls you You’ve had it rough? I’ve made myself the pray one last time It’s come over me
8.
It had to be farewell Who'd of thought that we’d allow Such a thing to stir us far away Though this time is damned Right from morning, straight through the longest days Gather pieces, pick them up someway Reasoning can't be found Remembered by countless fragments of you Circling familiar grounds will only endure so much Life through an empty shell May have imposed myself on you Wish I had the perfect words to say This mirage a sham Nothing's ever what it is meant to be Moment seizes, wish you would have stayed
9.
The Real You 03:50
Give us the word, you are convincing How many hands of theirs have strings? How many masks have you collected? Your puppets sing, you are the king This is your stage, your name, your home, the real you The light is red, please feed us a dream This, the permanent reflection I see you staring from the corner I’m the one you sell, they’ll know me so well Have you been yourself before? This, the shell of my perfection Body of one, blessed to be so loved Stay away from me, you will be safer Is it all worth it and what you made it up to be?
10.
Why so wired? Pensive at this hour Your thoughts will shift till you’re amazed Take it all, take it apart Just standing here and freaking out A poisoned heart will end it’s journey just the same Let it out Say what you have to say Guards are down, you're at it again My tears for you have washed away Can't inspire or ever erase The greatest tale of all Told a million ways Think aloud Split your mind apart Like fighting through a crowded maze Take it all, take it apart now complete, you are so proud You’re spiting darts, the truer face when you’re afraid
11.
Veil 03:18
A quick stare as if it were a loaded gun Now worse, I’m jaded I meant to break all ties but I’ve finally reached the bend You feel the need This temper’s like a disease I won’t break, you’ve shown me how it’s really done Just like you’ve stated I won’t ever be held down Proving what you are is simply monotone I don’t want to be left out again Rid me of this veil I don’t want to be left out I’ll trade for something real A mere taste, it kills you, now you’re on the run Till it has faded Just one look from those eyes and I face a moment’s end You steal, you feed My aching to be released A set fate, looking out for number one A point well taken I won’t ever be held down I won’t mend to your sarcastic undertones Fought fair, it seems you went from all to none It’s self-created Survival is implied, now it really does depend
12.
There’s a chance that it’s too late For things to come around Hauling out old dreams again I can’t live by those means I won’t see it crashing down Got to make it go away Breathe in Getting through these times with grace Moving towards the frontline Breathe in What I’ve undergone Can’t go higher, phased desire Just can’t have it all My thoughts now interlaced A suffocating sound Never been the best of friends I’m tearing at the seam But I’m not nearly bowing out Stand still in this hurricane Breathe in What a difference it could make A simple ray of sunshine Breathe in What I’ve undergone
13.
How many signs do you need? We’ll show you, make your eyes bleed This is us, we’ll come out fighting Show your scars Your sorry self cannot stay Our pours are firing off steam We told you it would be this way, no one can save you now Black clouds and solid glare Something’s in the air It’s coming to get you, you can’t win We will destroy you Leave it to us to conceive Ideas are flowing upstream This is us, there is no lying Set your fire Full grins and teeth are clenching Stay clear, we’re heading full speed Our path here only ends one way, your luck’s run over now It’s time for us now to feed Our moral crash Is landing We told you it would be this way, no one can save you now
