Set Us Free

why do we live so blind
with our heads stuck in despair?
why do we waste, our lives
on a road of
distress
gasping for air
i've heard of a place of hope
a place to call a home
with a mind set right
ready to fight
because i know
we are not alone
you and i are not forever
but until then we will make it count
till we die we're bound together
bend and break untill we drop
this darkness wont last forever
just look ahead keep your head up
in the end it just wont matter
what sets us free is you and me
if we could only break through the dark times
and let our thoughts be covered in light
we will find a place of peace
oh you got to believe
just keep a hold of all the better times
its not a saving grace we need
with a heavy heart
and a shakey start
we got this
you wont need to do this alone
where's a heated heart i'll dethrone
the sinners that hold us back
we will set us free
this will set us free
death will set us free
the force that holds us back
the faith that keeps us alive
the fire that makes us strong
is all within us
my brother my friend
we'll stick it out 'till the end
and when you loose the grip
look over your shoulder
there's so much that you've missed
my brother my friend
we'll stick it out 'till the end
even if we are not of the same blood

The Watch
03:00

all i ever want today is war
and i keep on coming back for more
bulging eyes, my ears they bleed but i cant resist the score
all i need is war
through death my heart is beating even more,
some say and are mis-led to believe that the blood spilled to our feet won't feed the need for disbelieve. it happens over and over and over again
over and over and over again
all i want is war for evermore
you should too cause this world is meant to fall
hold my hand until the last dawn, no need to wheep you'll soon be gone
close your eyes, let this breathe
this is war
let them rot away
see their thrones and towers burning to cinder
while you and me stand watch
nothing left to surrender
let them rot away
let them fade away
let them decay
stand close to me
come near me
stand close to me
alone

Spit

Cant bring me down
Seven tons to keep me locked in
In the corner of my bed
Try to find a solid reason
To get myself out off my head
Digging through the mental mud
Leaves my hanging by a thread
Cut the strings that hold me back
Now im free,
I'll pick up where i’ve left
cant bring me down
But i know this race will keep cutting turns,
Bringing me back
To the edge
Keep on running one direction instead
To the point
Where no longer feel my feet
And let go
Regain control, Nothings following me
I'm the one who steers
I'm the one burning you
There is no sweeter taste
You can’t hold me down
i'll Let this hate run through
Down to my finger tips
I'll let you feel what i strive
I'll take these voices, the poison
You put inside of me
And i will spit it out
cant hold me down
No restraints that keep me confined
To the corner of my mind
No more pills to keep me comfort
I leave this rotten hole behind
From up here i see my conflict
I see the war inside my head
I see the fight that kept me crawling,
Now i'll lay it all to rest
i'm going back to a time where i was innocent
looking back at what i've done
But this hate still runs through me
I'm the one who steers
I'm the one burning you
Theres nothing left to say
I'm too far gone,
I'm through with you

Redeemer

turn my head around
my lonely place has gone
no longer linger in the world
that i depended on
dont break a single sweat
with this fistful of regret
thats what you get when you give
until nothing's left
and now
against the undertow
against the demons i wont lose control
and now
ill make this puzzle fit
ill pave my road
mark my words i wont quit
redeemer
head up
there's no reaching back
no patience
no set backs
one life to depend on
one voice to ignore
and another to rely on
break out this mental cage
do you even hear what i say?
i still feel i'm not getting through to you
break out the mental cage that blurs our sight
adjust the focus just to know im right
burn those bridges that lead us to our graves
light the dispaired alleys
that shadowed our lives
and now against the undertow
there won't be no reaching back
no patience, no setbacks
and now against the undertow
don't break a single sweat with a fistful of regret
mark my words i wont quit

Show And Tell

sit back and let the resin kick in
when my world falls apart i'll just build it again
i read the signs but i didn’t see the state of this
i tried to calm myself down
but its still over
i break the cycle, wave goodbye to my blurry eyes
i try to calm myself down
as im waiting for something,
a little push from the side
my mind goes weak as its running
running from the pain that is dawning
as i catch myself stalling
another glance to the side
inhale, my heartache is over
ill fight these demons just to say that im sober now
show me show me
burn the bridges the time has come
show me show me
two steps back but now its time to start
show me your heart
try to find the words to say
as i fall apart
so gently
i keep on telling myself it's just a phase
letting the minutes turn to hours turn to days
i sit back let the resin kick in
and when my world falls apart
i'll just start it again
as im waiting for something,
a little push from the side
my mind goes weak as its running
running from the pain that is dawning
and as i catch myself stalling
another glance to the side
inhale, my heartache is over
ill fight these demons just to say that im sober now
sit back let the resin kick in
as my world falls apart i'll just start it again
i found a way to clear the mist in my blurry eyes
a will to live and to be in control
i find it hard, say im good, but its only lies
but i gotta survive

i’ve had enough of your excuses
you telling lies
you have yet to see the worst of me
the fire in us has been fed with the air we breathe
you won’t ever get the better of me
i fucking warned you
you have yet to see the worst of me
i’m about to go over the edge
cause i know i’ve got heavier hands than you
we are nothing but close enemies
sick of your bullshit all of your lies
all i see is evil eyes
i fucking warned you

Thinner Blood
04:27

|
i`ve been back tracked
been battered, abused
pushed to the side and shattered by you
all of the things you've done to me
made the man i never wanted to be
you're meant to give me a home
but instead you left me alone
as you focused on being free
you forgot what you thought would be the best for me
i still dont blame you
cause it might be all in my head
i try to forgive you
but end up resisting instead
im not done bleeding
just give me the time to heal
i still dont blame you
its just how i feel
just wake up and read between the fucking lines
take a look at yourself
you might find theres a deeper meaning
give in to the fact that you have failed
ill make good use of my time
pretend that im doing fine
but i know
to let go
and leave it all behind
you dont even know me
so how dare you even say
your way of life has taught me
im in for better days
you dont even know me
so what gives you the right to judge
as i walk this path alone
im not giving up
fast forward
been grinding my time
pushed it aside and stayed on the line
all of the things you've done to me
made me the man i aim to be
you ran and left me alone
i made due and strived for truth
i fought for being free
dismissed what you thought was the best for me
i still dont blame you
cause it might be all in my head
i try to forgive you
but end up resisting instead
im not done bleeding
just give me the time to heal
i still dont blame you
and leave it all behind
leave it all behind

Between Us
03:40

for anyone who's ever been dragged down,
for anyone who's been down on their knees
a last salute to your fears and doubts
stand together
get back on your feet
we're taking back the time that we've lost
all the mistakes, the pain that we've caused,
has taught us how to be emotionaly free and not be the victim of unclarity
but when we feel alone!
stories told light the shadows we roam
a place that feels like home
we just gotta believe that...
between us!
bonds once broken, once carried us, ready to make amend
between us!
we wear our hearts on our sleeves, together we push through with ease
between us!
heavy hearts, our darkest thoughts, it bends our trust
between us!
we still have so much to discover, what broke us then only made us stronger
built to withstand your storm
built and battle-worn
from here on out we won't take flight,
ready to stand and face the fight
that all we are is sometimes all we need
no place for you and your talk that's cheap
if you feel you're on your own
use these words, you won't be alone
a place to call your home
together we got this
not always relentless in our trust
this bonds forever between us
together we got this
between us!

Monument

you missed the signs
missed hands reaching out your way
you call it quits when everyone else wants you to stay
brick by brick i can see you tearing your own house down
parts of of me want too see you fail
for what you've done oh you just dont understand
pleading not guilty thats how you are
bare witness now
there's one last chance to restart
rebuild, reclaim what you used to be
reborn you are in this uncertainty
dont fail me now
cause you're almost too far gone
lose some words so i know you're not lost
in what you've become
is a monument of what you hate
dont fail me now
cause you're almost too far gone
brick by brick i can see you building up those walls
reset your course
reset the needle pointing north
trace your steps when everyone else will just forget
rebuild reclaim
be the person you used to be
rebuild reclaim
lose some words, you're not lost
rebuild reclaim
reset the course that you are on
rebuild reclaim
trace your steps and dont forget

Empty Throne
04:40

i’m sick of feeling so useless
i’m sick of drawing the line
it comes in waves
overwhelming my conscience
come take a seat in this empty throne of mine
these are the things that will set us free
there's no bond to break between you and me
im out of breath,im out of life
working the circles,just buying my time
it’s like there's nothing between us
i’m a little cold and i’ve run out of breath
my weary mind lets me take on the fall
but i know it will all go wrong
you think you’ve got what it takes to be free
but you dont know the struggle of reality
i lost my heart through trial and error
but not lost hope it will all get better
these are the things that will set us free
there's no bond to break between you and me
im out of breath
im out of life
working the circles
just buying my time
i keep my mouth shut
i keep my eyes closed
i’ve done all these things
but you will never know
these are the things that will set us free
no bonds to break between you and me
