Razorwire and landmines, a war inside my head
Losing my grip on reality,driving my insane
Sinking into delusion,obsession with the dead
Tearing myself apart, thriving on the pain
Closer to the edge than ever before
Icarus's wings, watch me soar
Sun in my eyes, dirt in my mouth
A fall from grace, such a disgrace
Icepick to my eye, mallet in your hand
Two taps, a twist and its done
Peace of mind, emotions gone
Now I'm the perfect citizen can't you see
Calm and docile, sheepish as can be
And all it took was a Lobotomy.

My strength comes from my anger
My anger comes from my pain
My pain comes from my failure
My failure is my shame

Adrenaline pushes me forward
Synapses  fire in my brain
My ideas become my plans
My plans drive me insane

The spiral is unending
It keeps taking me around
It crushes my inner being
It dumps me to the ground

I keep on listening
I hear the deathly sound
My voice has denied me
I can't be heard in the crowd

My life is bittersweet
It's left a sour taste in my mouth
Since the day that i was born
My life's been going south

it all went away

I closed my eyes and the world went away
No flash of light, no new day
It just all went away
I opened my eyes and couldn't see a thing
It was all gone, nothing remained
No dark of night, no light of day
It all had gone away
The emptiness frightened me at first
I was lonely and scared
Like those times when nobody cared
When I had nobody and nothing was shared
I had nothing anyway
Before it all went away
The world didn't end for those who believed
The world didn't end for those who were decieved
The world didn't end for those who recieved
The world only ended for me
I had nothing anyway
Before it all went away
Someone took it and gave it all away
They left me here by myself
Like a forgotten toy on the highest shelf
They left me here without any help
So I closed my eyes and made it all go away
Never to be another new day

The blood on my hands holds no shame
The more I **** the higher my fame
A god of war I claim my throne
For all my sins I could never atone
The righteous I trample under my feet
They are full of lies and deciet
My crimes I wear proudly on my sleeve
I have no reason to decieve
I hold the keys to eternal judgement
I mead out the rewards and punishment
There is blackness on every soul
Life on earth has taken it's toll
If i could I'd wipe every slate clean
But that is well beyond my means
The system is set, the rules in stone
As is the marrow to the bone
You think me evil, you think me cruel
Remember I'm not the One who made the rules
The scales I hold are balanced and true
As long as you have paid your due
You see no one enters for free
This is just the way it has to be
So toil your lives away in the field
And hope you bring in a high enough yield
Me I'd rather weild my sword
And claim I **** for the Lord

How much do you want
How much do you need
There's only so much
I'm able to concede
Talk means nothing
When your silent
Aggression is everything
When your violent
I stand alone
In a crowd
Nobody hears me
I scream so loud
In front of your face
But never seen
I'm so *****
You're so clean
From the beginning
Until the end
Rigid and uncompromising
You'll never bend

Internal conflict
Life of lies
Lonely convict
Freedom denied
Tearing from the inside
Struggling to get out
Seeing through dead eyes
Voiceless I still shout
Here I am
Trapped in my skin
There's no escape
Prisoned within
My body is a prison
Ridden with strife
Dying on the inside
This is my life

It was a bright day full of gloom

As we gathered about your tomb
Buried deeply beneath the surface
Solemn mourning was our purpose
Dressed in black as should be

Dark smiles for the world to see
Somber souls we came to morn

For deathly dying we were born

Now body lying beneath the earth
Decaying corpse farthest from birth
Dancing the dirge of final death

We dance it until our last breath
