Lost It All

Run away, I'm living with a hole inside
A piece of me that I have yet to find
Edge of reason, lines uneven, turn me off, feel the blood so cold
Like a product that was bought and sold, asking me for the impossible

I ain't waiting for a miracle; I ain't waiting for the world to change
Under my skin lives the reason, under my armor I lost it all

No more faith, no savior made of our designs
Fooled me before, I tell ya' not this time
Raped my body, lost my vision, lost my mind, I had to let it go
Another day living irrational, another day inside this dying soul

I ain't waiting for a miracle; I ain't waiting for the world to change
Under my skin lives the reason, under my armor I lost it all

There's something in your eyes
A part of me that I recognize
I wanna let you know
We'd be there if we could and it's alright
You taught me how to feel
It's no wonder I'd do anything
Tell me why'd you have to go
With the worst to come lost the best I know
Time - seems like we lost it all

Burn it all! Burn it to the fucking ground!
Believe the words that I don't want me around
Life revision, indecision, world collision, and heads will roll
With nothing left except the pain to show
Mental manic driven overflow

I ain't waiting for a miracle; I ain't waiting for the world to change
Under my skin lives the reason, under my armor I lost it all

4:00 AM

There comes a day when we all find out for ourselves
That once we have the words to say, there's no one left to tell
I know why you're running away.

There's a place where nothing seems to be assembled quite cohesively,
It's all your mind, all your mind
Something little shouldn't feel this way,
We got a million thoughts we can't convey,
It's all your life, all your life!

It's four in the morning, you got one more chance to die
Like beautiful stories the greatest chapters flew right by
There comes a day when we all find out for ourselves
That once we have the words to say, there's no one left to tell
I know why you're running away.

These things don't happen here; another fictional reality
It's all your mind; all your mind!
It's just as good as any other day, I'm gonna teach you about mortality
Now it's not right, it's not right!

It's four in the morning, you got one more chance to die
Like beautiful stories the greatest chapters flew right by
There comes a day when we all find out for ourselves
That once we have the words to say, there's no one left to tell
I know why you're running away.

In many ways I guess I'll never let you go.
I'm close behind but I've got room here left to grow,
I took my second chance, just enjoy the dance, and found out who we are
Let's find out what we are, never leave asking why.

It's four in the morning, you got one more chance to die
Like beautiful stories the greatest chapters flew right by
There comes a day when we all find out for ourselves
That once we have the words to say, there's no one left to tell
I know why you're running, I know why you're running away!

Not Ready To Die

Gone
Cast away in time
Evil yours, now evil mine
So I robbed you blind
The voices in my head suggest a less than peaceful side

The endless possibilities
Controlling 935.

You can't break me
Crushed the fears of yesterday
You can't save me
Barriers, our trust will fade.

I've stood in the dark
Been waiting all this time
While we damn the dead I'm trying to survive
I'm not ready to die

Damned
Watch the masses fall
Burn it down, control 'em all
(Help me) Make me crawl
To daddy's little girl to read the writings on the wall

While cast into the nothingness
The final curtain call

You can't break me,
Crushed the fears of yesterday
You can't save me,
Barriers, our trust will fade

I've stood in the dark
Been waiting all this time
While we damn the dead I'm trying to survive,
I'm not ready to die

[Guitar solo]

Through the madness we find
Loyalty is no match for power
Say goodbye to your life, left to rot in
Your darkest hour
Prayers won't help you now as long as you're mine

You can't break me
Crushed the fears of yesterday
You can't save me
Barriers, our trust will fade

I've stood in the dark
Been waiting all this time
While we damn the dead I'm trying to survive

I'll control the world
One person at a time
As I damn the dead I'm trying to survive
I'm not ready to die!

Oh!

I'm not ready to die!
I'm not ready to die!
I'm not ready to die!
I'm not ready to die!
Ready to die!
Ready to die!
Ready to die!
Not ready to die!

The Fight

The problem with society's been how do we teach
And if they'll believe.
We'll fight this battle for years to come
'til we all accept that we can stand on our own.
Grandfather used his hands, he worked them to the bone.
Provide his family with a happy home, alone.

Don't take your aggression out on me.
My own man is all I'm meant to be.

This common place is so lazy, old, and tired
All your ideas are so fucking uninspired.
Takes more than one idea
More than one person to fight the fight
How many times have you taught and not conspired?

Don't wanna be, they never say
But don't call us the liars

We've walked these alleys a thousand times
And scattered around a thousand lies.
They are trying to hold you down
Your life may be hard
But keep your feet on the ground.
Why don't I have the finer things that others have?
The chance is there if you want it all that bad.
So bad.

Don't take your aggression out on me.
My own man is all I'm meant to be.

This common place is so lazy, old, and tired
All your ideas are so fucking uninspired.
Takes more than one idea
More than one person to fight the fight
How many times have you taught and not conspired?

Don't try and get me confused.
Cause I do understand.
And sometimes people need help.
That they may need a hand
When this problems going on.
A thing you have to get straight
Is that you don't own my hand.
And I don't owe you a thing.
So don't think about how sorry
You feel when now your treated so bad.

This common place is so lazy, old, and tired
All your ideas are so fucking uninspired.
Takes more than one idea
More than one person to fight the fight
How many times have you taught and not conspired?

And as we race we look back and we've come so far.
While some may conquer, the others had it so hard.
But in this day we just complain while there's no one for us to fight.
I guess we're bored and it's how we keep us occupied
