1. Devastator
A hate that outweighs love Sold like water to the drowning A frozen core A thickened skin I have grown Detached and loveless Devoid and numb I am here You must first belong to betray I've done both I fear
Faceless and haunting me Something I'll try to shake Until my heart and veins run dry Faceless and more than I can ignore A reflection f a time that I long to not recall But one we can't let go
For all my faults For all my wrongs lay bare And at this time I'm just carrion to them For all my faults For all my wrongs lay bare And at this time I'm just carrion to them
Sure, I've bled but I've always healed I don't believe I deserve to mend this time Because all my wrongs lay peripheral And they haunt me every single night Sure, I've bled, but I've always healed I don't believe I deserve to mend this time Because all my wrongs lay peripheral
I've belonged I've betrayed
(But one we can't let go)
2. Time
Through these frozen winter nights They drain our minds They test us all Through these tired and weary eyes We say farewell to one of us To a part of us all
And time will wait for no man All that we've lost we'll never forget Pull yourself off of the ground Don't give up on it now Just stay strong There's a life to be led And time will wait for no man
The sun goes down on a day which buried a friend And through saddened smiles we'll go Though the night is vast there is hope which always remains So we'll just move on but not forget
(Through these times of no regret)
These old coins tokens of a time once lost Its been lost to us all for too long Through this blood a legacy We'll push onwards to forge our own From a part of us
The sun goes down on a day which buried a friend And through saddened smiles we'll go Though the night is vast there is hope which always remains So we'll just move on but not forget
And time will wait for no man
3. Unveiled
Like it's my own life flashing before Whilst they search for a purpose An open door And as they stare into false light Words fall from the page Their whole world a lie
We'll be saving ourselves Even if the tides steal the shores A truth unveiled over time We'll be saving our god damned souls Every cry let out falls on deaf ears The clouds they gather above
When all that faith stands for nothing How much resolve? How much you have left?
We'll be saving ourselves Even if the tides steal the shores A truth unveiled over time We'll be saving our god damned souls Every cry let out falls on deaf ears The clouds they gather above
The truth is unveiled over time Over time we'll be pulling ourselves from the edge
And we find ourselves at the end of it all What we'll face what comes next An ocean will tempt draw us to it's waves They say we'll be cursed
Place your curse on me

5. Alive
For all the times I've been made to feel resentful Towards the things I should be grateful for By the ones I've laid trust on
But now it seems I've become more resilient For all the poison has been filtered out And I feel alive again
And even through the hardest times The storm will fail to break us down Despite the falters, and there's been a few We're still alive
And for all the misdirections For all the broken paths I've once been led I lit the fuse to burn those bridges No more will I re-tread these steps of mine
Even in our darkest times Our brightest moments are born Sometimes it takes a fall To become a stronger man
For every time That a high was ripped away from me By the vultures judging with their keys I've left them all behind
But now it seems I've become more resilient For all the poison has been filtered out And I feel alive again
And even through the hardest times The storm will fail to break us down Despite the falters, and there's been a few We're still alive
We'll find these answers on our own If we're led we'll never know We'll forge our paths with blood and bone If we're led we'll never know
