The gods and idols that we made

The judgments as they stand

Under watch as they now fade away

No trail left on this land

Machines that brought us to this fear

A time to crash and die

Steel and thunder all around us

Like a nightmare in a lie

I remember it like yesterday

So deeply it's ingrained

So much is lost inside me now

So much has been constrained

The pain I feel overwhelms me

The punishment as it stands

Watching over me, eyes that stare

Issuing silent unending commands

The time has come to end this

Ever watchful eyes grow strong

The gods stand over waiting to guide us

In spite of all our wrongs

I needed someone to draw the sword

Who witnessed the fight at the birthing shores

Who bound us in secrets then pulled us apart

I needed you to save my heart

I needed someone to break the night

To see through the darkness and bring the light

To bring the battles only I could win

To protect me from this world of sin

My guardian, protector throughout my days

Teacher for when battles raze

My master when I had my doubts

When death and bloodshed were all about

My comfort now that I lay here

To be there throughout all my fears

Now I return to meet my lord

Will you be there to draw the sword

And one day we'll rage together

you and I

We'll raise the sky

We'll fight the fallen 'till it's our time to die

And this time we'll be awake

as time goes on

Into the sun

The tired and unending things we've done

Let us never look behind us

Nothing revealed

No wounds to heal

Reaching for a time when we forgot to feel

Are we angels or are we demons

Do we believe

How do we leave

How do we wake up convinced it’s just a dream

Just a dream

Just a dream

How to convince ourselves

Is this all we are

The greatness we embraced

What have we become

Gods unto ourselves

(ch)

Tied into a circumstance

A fall of our own making

A final realm of consequence

The outcome of our waking

Is this all we are

The darkness in your eyes

The suffering endured

The idols we despised

Is this all we are

As the end is drawing near

No closer to the answers

The final days we craved

It's 3am and it's dark in here

Can’t see you but I feel you near

It brings me comfort in the fear

but the light is what I hold dear

Buzzing bright, unbroken

Filling up my veins

Electrical overload

Such power that it drains

Is this the end (is this the end)

Is this the end (is this the end)

The end of me (the end of me)

The end of you (the end of you)

It hurts

It hurts

It hurts

It hurts

I'll give you the pain you craved

I'll feed you the lies engraved on you

I'll give you the time to grieve your life

I'll show you those that you'll leave

I'll starve you 'till you've the body you desire

I'll stand you in the fire to brown

You'll suffocate in a grave of your own making

No chance left anymore that you'll be saved

I'll give you a beautiful death, you'll see

The most wonderful union we could have

I'll give you a finality unique

Beyond what you'd believe, brutality

Do you walk along with crazies

Is it empathy or spite

When you see what they can bear

it's me you torment with delight

When you speak with absolution

do you mean the words you say

When we follow your instruction

will you guide us the right way

Do you look on us with hatred

or it is love there in your eyes

I wish you'd treat us gently

We didn’t ask to be despised

We only want acceptance

and thought that you would be the one

to hear us without judgment

and guide us to the sun

Do you walk along with crazies

or do the crazies walk with you

Do we hinder you in blindness

When we seek the truth and know that all we had is gone

All it seems is left are ghosts with dreams to carry on

A million whispers claim that this is your destiny

A million lights left shining as a path to what must be

(ch)

(We are one) and we bear the mark

(One voice) and we break the silence

(One mind) and we bring confusion

(One blow) and we fell the sky

(One madness) and we drank the poison

but we never die

Where is the demon that’s within us, it is hidden in plain sight?

Does it steal away your confidence in the darkness of the night?

A flower in remembrance of something that is gone

A thorn to taste the blood and to atone for those we wronged

(ch)

As time elapsed and worlds collapsed, the graves grew ever more

Tattered torn and broken, bodies thrown upon the floor

The ending that we prayed for has come about at last

With nothing left to die for but dishonors of the past

(ch)

(ch)

It's times like these

that brought me to my knees

It's times like these

when all I have is this disease

(This disease - multi repeat and fade)

JUST THIS DISEASE

I can see it, It's getting closer

and I have nowhere left to run

I can feel it, It's in your breath

but you won't save me, from certain death

(ch)

It's times like these

that brought me to my knees

It's times like these

when all I have is this disease

(This disease - multi repeat and fade)

JUST THIS DISEASE

And it is seething, it wants my blood

it wants to tear me all apart

And it is waiting, it will never cease

Forever waiting, for its release

(ch)

It's times like these

that brought me to my knees

It's times like these

when all I have is this disease

(This disease - multi repeat and fade)

JUST THIS DISEASE

I can't escape this, there's nothing left

and now I know this is the end

I hope you're proud now, now this is done

I hope you understand, what you've become

(ch)

It's times like these

that brought me to my knees

It's times like these

when all I have is this disease

(This disease - multi repeat and fade)

JUST THIS DISEASE

Finally my dark side sees the light

are you held tight?

I wouldn't want for you to miss this show

It's art you know

A demonstration maybe, just a taste

but it would be a waste

a tragedy if you were not to see

the best of me

(ch)

You fucking little bitch you're going to die

I'm gonna cut off all your limbs and eat your eyes

You epitomize everything I despise

There'll be a thousand cuts for each and every lie

This is going to hurt more than you know

but that's the show

I'll enjoy every second of it

It's only fit

Of course it's nothing personal really

it's just that yearly

I clear all of the shit out of my life

This year was rife

(ch)

I'm going to slit you, hear you scream, watch you bleed

If I'd left you legs now you'd be on your knees

I'll tear off all your skin and make you see

that the only one who cared this much is me

Soon you're going to beg for me to kill you

but in truth

I'm having too much fun to let it end

Are you not too my friend?

Do you even know, did you ever see

what you did to me?

You know, I lied, it's fucking personal

I'll put you through hell

(ch)

I'll carve you up, drive you insane

You'll see your flesh go down the drain

When nothing I could do to you remains

I'll put a bullet through what's left of your fucking brain

(refrain)

The end it comes to everything my dear

Forgotten, the remains that I leave here

Trust me I'll continue when you're gone

Trash like you, there'll always be another one.
