Survival
Survival

One more goddamn day when I know what I want
And my want will be considered tonight, considered tonight
Just another day when all that I want
Will mark me as a sinner tonight, I'm a sinner tonight, yeah

[Chorus]
Evil can no longer cover their eyes
If this disturbs you then walk away
You will remember the night you were struck by the sight of
Ten Thousand fists in air

Power un-restrained dead on the mark
Is what we will deliver tonight, deliver tonight
Pleasure fused with pain this triumph of the soul
will make you shiver tonight, will make you shiver tonight, yeah

[Chorus]

We are the ones that will open your mind
Leave the weak and the haunted behind [4x]

[Chorus]

Ten Thousand fists in the air

. . .


Just stop enough of the limitless critical comments on my life
Just drop the judgment and all of your pseudo-involvement in my life
Step back a moment, and look at the miracle starting in our life
Don't stop the moment, and let the incredible happen knowing that

All that you want is to criticize
Something for nothing
And all that I want is forgiveness one more time
To be the best in the world

Just stop with all of your little deliberate problems with my life
Enough of all the crippling, terrible pain we feel inside
Step back a moment, remember how the miracle started in our life
Take back the torment; I won't be enjoying this moment knowing that

All that you want is to criticize
Something for nothing
And all that I want is forgiveness one more time
I know that
All that we want is to feel inside
Some kind of comfort
And all that we've done
We can hide
We'll be the best in the world

All I ever wanted was to be a real source of compassion
From the moment that we found ourselves drowning in
All I ever wanted was to be a real source of compassion
From the moment that we found ourselves drowning in

All that you want is to criticize
Something for nothing
And all that I want is forgiveness one more time
I know that
All that we want is to feel inside
Some kind of comfort
And all that we've done
We can hide
We'll be the best in the world
We'll be the best in the world
Just stop enough of the limitless critical comments on my life
Just drop the judgment and all of your pseudo-involvement in my life

. . .



Guarding yourself from the love of another
Left you with nothing tonight
Why does it sound like the devil is laughing
Leaving me haunted tonight
You did decide

Now I want you, when you're gone, and now it's like
You're holding something just in front of me
Well then, I can't allow this to become another
One of those times that I'm left in the cold, dead
There's no compromise
Just another tie
I know I need to sever

Guarding yourself from the love of another
Left you with nothing tonight
Why does it sound like the devil is laughing
Leaving me haunted tonight
You did decide

Ever haunted, by the trappings of this life
Sweet redemption, just in front of me
Well now, it seems once again that I've lost another
One of the one's that have broke through the wall
Damned
Fate won't compromise
I have sold my soul,
And now the devil's laughing
You did decide

You were bold and strong, and ready to begin your life
All for nothing, you were sacrificed
You began alone, and so it will be when you die
All for nothing, will you be remembered?
You did decide

Guarding yourself from the love of another
Left you with nothing tonight
So now you know why the devil is laughing
He left you with nothing tonight

. . .



All my devotion betrayed
I am no longer afraid
I was too blinded to see
How much you've stolen from me

You want to know why I feel so horrified?
I let my innocence die
You want to know why I can't be pacified?
You made me bury something
I won't be sleeping tonight

I only wanted the missing link
Now I've been labeled a renegade
It seems so clear now what I must do
You're no immortal
I won't let them
Deify you
Leave you, you as the new messiah
Deify you
Renew belief in some demented myth (or man)

You want to know why it seems the passion has died?
We've all been living this lie
You want to know why my will has been fortified?
You've made hunger again
Good luck sleeping tonight

I only wanted the missing link
Now I've been labeled a renegade
It seems so clear now what I must do
You're no immortal
I won't let them
Deify you
Leave you, you as the new messiah
Deify you
Renew belief in some demented myth (or man)

All my devotion betrayed
I am no longer afraid
All my devotion betrayed
I am no longer afraid
I was too blinded to see
How much you've stolen from me
I was too blinded to see
All my devotion betrayed
I am no longer afraid
I was too blinded to see
How much you've stolen from me

Deify you
Leave you, you as the new messiah
Deify you
Renew belief in some demented myth (or man)

Deify you
Leave you, you as the new messiah
All my devotion betrayed
I am no longer afraid
Deify you
Renew belief in some demented myth (or man)
I was too blinded to see

. . .



You walk on like a woman in suffering
Won't even bother now to tell me why
You come alone, letting all of us savor the moment
Leaving me broken another time
You come on like a bloodstained hurricane
Leave me alone, let me be this time
You carry on like a holy man pushing redemption
I don't want to mention, the reason I know

That I am stricken and can't let you go
When the heart is cold, there's no hope, and we know
That I am crippled by all that you've done
Into the abyss will I run

You don't know what your power has done to me
I want to know if I'll heal inside
I can't go on with a holocaust about to happen
Seeing you laughing another time
You'll never know how your face has haunted me
My very soul has to bleed this time
Another hole in the wall of my inner defenses
Leaving me breathless, the reason I know

That I am stricken and can't let you go
When the heart is cold, there's no hope, and we know
That I am crippled by all that you've done
Into the abyss will I run

Into the abyss will I run

You walk on like a woman in suffering
Won't even bother now to tell me why
You come alone, letting all of us savor the moment
Leaving me broken another time
You come on like a bloodstained hurricane
Leave me alone, let me be this time
You carry on like a holy man pushing redemption
I don't want to mention, the reason I know

That I am stricken and can't let you go
When the heart is cold, there's no hope, and we know
That I am crippled by all that you've done
Into the abyss will I run

Into the abyss will I run
I can't let you go

. . .


Never again will I be dishonored
And never again will I be reminded
We're living within the world of the jaded
They killed inspiration
It's my obligation
To never again, allow this to happen
Where do I begin?
The choices are endless
Denying the sin
My art, my redemption
I carry the torch of my fathers before me

The thing I treasure the most in life cannot be taken away
There will never be a reason why I will surrender to your advice
To change myself, I'd rather die
Lonely, we'll not understand
I will make the greatest sacrifice
You can't predict where the outcome lies
You'll never take me alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive

Change again cannot be considered
I rage again, dispelling my anger
Where do I begin?
The choices are endless
My art, my redemption, my only salvation
I carry the gift that I have been blessed with
My soul is adrift in oceans of madness
Reparing the rift that you have created
I am not alone, brothers, give me your arms now

The thing I treasure the most in life cannot be taken away
There will never be a reason why I will surrender to your advice
To change myself, I'll rather die
Lonely, we'll not understand
I will make the greatest sacrifice
You can't predict where the outcome lies
You'll never take me alive

I'm no slave
Are you feeling brave?
Or have you gone out of your mind?
No more games
It won't feel the same
If I hold my anger inside
There's no meaning
My soul is bleeding
I've had enough of your kind
Wanting just...
Before you...

The thing I treasure the most in life cannot be taken away
There will never be a reason why I will surrender to your advice
To change myself, I'd rather die
Lonely, we'll not understand
I will make the greatest sacrifice
You can't predict where the outcome lies
You'll never take me alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive

Tell me you like it
Tell me you like it
You say you found yourself a new sound
The ships loaded and ready to go
A bit too much just like the old sound
Already heard it for the hundredth time
One hundred more, all have the same sound
Running around with all the sheep that you know
It's so sublime, they're breaking new ground
They're sure to have another hit this time

Come on
Can't you just leave it alone
It doesn't have any soul
Just find a thing of your own
And stop pretending to know
As the countless numbers hunger for world wide renown
All the pimping sons of plunder will roll up their sleeves
All searching for the answers they don't even care to know
Give it to me
Give it to me
You like it?

I'm still surrounded by the new sound
I've had enough and I'm ready to go
I'll stranglehold throughout the world now
The new obsession will fade in time
A thin reminder of the past now.
All convoluted hardly ready to go
Their whines and moans will never last now
I think you've given us a fill this time

Come on
Can't you just leave it alone
It doesn't have any soul
Just find a thing of your own
And stop pretending to know
As the countless numbers hunger for world wide renown
All the pimping sons of plunder will roll up their sleeves
All searching for the answers they don't even care to know
Give it to me
Give it to me
You like it?

As it's blown apart, hundreds thrown away
Makes me question just what I believe
Brothers torn apart, mindless drones enslaved
Makes me search for an answer
I don't want to know
It's like a plague from below
Killing all that I know
One hundred voices the same
Drench their sorrow in flame

As the countless numbers hunger for world wide renown
All the pimping sons of plunder will roll up their sleeves
All searching for the answers they don't even care to know
Give it to me
Give it to me
As the countless numbers hunger for world wide renown
All the pimping sons of plunder will roll up their sleeves
All searching for the answers they don't even care to know
Give it to me
Give it to me
You like it?
Tell me you like it
Tell me you like it
Tell me you like it
Tell me you like it

. . .



Hell is still overburdened
I must stand and wait in line
I may never know for certain when will be my time
How was I considered evil?
Vengeance taken in this life
Someone granted me
We're evil decades spent in ..

Led to nothing
Repeat it in mind
Led to nothing
If only I was born another time

Hell is still overburdened
I must stand and wait in line
Hell is still overburdened
Now I find that something...

There's the closing of the curtain
In the plane that was my life
Now this chapter's left for open tragedies in time
I was hiding for a reason
Holy blessed homicide
Seems I have committed treason
All I've sacrificed

Led to nothing
Repeat it in mind
Led to nothing
If only I was born another time

Hell is still overburdened
I must stand and wait in line
Hell is still overburdened
Now I find that something...
Hell is still overburdened
I must stand and wait in line
Hell is still overburdened
Now I find that something...

Faith is so unkind
Now I should have known
Blind leading the blind
Reaping on my soul
If it all amounts to nothing
Why, then, am I standing in this line?

Hell is still overburdened
I must stand and wait in line
Hell is still overburdened
Now I find that something...
Hell is still overburdened
I must stand and wait in line
Hell is still overburdened

Say, yes they know that you fought yourself another time
Don't they know that you're full of blame already?
Yes they know that you fought yourself another time
Decadence isn't easy, is it?
Yes they know that you fought yourself another time
Don't they know that you're full of blame already?
Yes they know that you fought yourself another time
Decadence isn't easy

Slowly recall all your mind
Why, your soul's gone cold, and your hope has run dry
Dead inside
Never enough to forget that you're one of the lonely
Slowly recall all your mind

Say, yes they know that you fought yourself another time
Don't they know that you're full of blame already?
Yes they know that you fought yourself another time
Decadence isn't easy, is it?
Yes they know that you fought yourself another time
Don't they know that you're full of blame already?
Yes they know that you fought yourself another time
Decadence isn't easy

Slowly recall all your mind
Why, your soul's gone cold, and your hope has run dry
Dead inside
Never enough to forget that you're one of the lonely
Slowly recall all your mind

We must scare you now
Don't run from me
I've been hiding my pain, you see
Said if I scare you now
Don't run from me
I've been hiding my pain, you see

Slowly recall all your mind
Why, your soul's gone cold, and your hope has run dry
Dead inside
Never enough to forget that you're one of the lonely
Slowly recall all your mind
Slowly recall all your mind

Say, yes they know that you fought yourself another time
Don't they know that you're full of blame already?
Yes they know that you fought yourself another time

Forgiven to me
You're forgiven to me
You're just another dead man living to me
Forgiven to me
You're forgiven to me
How can you let a dead man live?

Forgiven to me
You're forgiven to me
You're just another dead man living to me
Forgiven to me
You're all giving to me
How can you let a dead man live?
Forgiven to me
You're forgiven to me
You're just another nightmare walking to me
You weren't dreaming of me
Now you're giving to me
How can I let a nightmare live?

To be purified...
Instead...the pain
As the final words erupt from your mouth
Who will remember your name?

Forgiven to me
You're forgiven to me
You're just another dead man living to me
Forgiven to me
You're all giving to me
How can you let a dead man live?
Forgiven to me
You're forgiven to me
You're just another nightmare walking to me
You weren't dreaming of me
Now you're giving to me
No longer will the nightmare live

To be purified...
Instead...the pain
As the final words erupt from your mouth
Who will remember your name?

Walking alone, the world...
Fighting for moments, alone in the dark
Will you carry the burden the world has grown?
Will you destroy everything in your sight?
You were wrong, now give this one more try
You were wrong, in begging me to die...(or tonight)

To be purified...
Instead...the pain
As the final words erupt from your mouth
Who will remember your name?
Who will remember your name?
Remember your name
Remember your name
Forgiven to me
You're forgiven to me
Remember your name
Forgiven to me

. . .



I must have dreamed a thousand dreams
Been haunted by a million screams
But I can hear the marching feet
They're moving into the street

Now, did you read the news today?
They say the danger has gone away
But I can see the fire's still alight
They're burning into the night

There's too many men, too many people
Making too many problems
And there's not much love to go around
Can't you see this is the land of confusion?

This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in

Oh, superman, where are you now?
When everything's gone wrong somehow?
The men of steel, I hate these men of power
I'm losing control by the hour

This is the time, this is the place
So we look for the future
But there's not much love to go around
Tell me why this is the land of confusion

This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in

I remember long ago
When the sun was shining
And all the stars were bright all through the night
In the wake up this madness, as I held you tight
So long ago

I won't be coming home tonight
My generation will put it right
We're not just making promises
That we know we'll never keep

There's too many men, too many people
Making too many problems
And there's not much love to go round
Can't you see this is the land of confusion?

Now, this is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth fighting for

This is the world we live in
And these are the names we're given
Stand up and let's start showing

. . .


My conviction is stronger today
As i fight to uncover your sacred life
And the fear isn't going away
As the soldiers still die
Let the followers know their lives have been sold
For the good of your sacred life
For the truth to be told
And the pain to unfold
We must start asking why

Don't you know the war is far from over now
What a stumbling block we've fallen over now
As our brothers die defending no one
The war is far from over now

Liberation, a moral charade
For the cause is a part of your sacred life
Damnation a moment away in all the world's eyes
It's the doom of us all
We give in to control for the sake of your sacred life
Complications abound
You'll get used to the sound of alarms in your life

Don't you know the war is far from over now
What a stumbling block we've fallen over now
As our brothers die defending no one
The war is far from over now

Give us a moment of peace in our lifetime [x7]
Give us a moment of peace right now

Don't you know the war is far from over now
What a stumbling block we've fallen over now
As our brothers die defending no one
The war is far from over now

. . .



Failing, falling, lost in forever
Will I find a way to keep it together?
Am I strong enough to last through the weather in the hurricane of my life?
Can it be a conscious decision?
Are the rightful ways to alter my vision?
Am I speeding towards another collision in the early breeze of my life?

Memories don't lie
You're no better than
Memories don't lie
You're no better than
Memories don't lie
You're no better than
Those who have fallen
Memories don't lie
You're no better than
Memories don't lie
You're no better than
Memories don't lie
You're no better than
Those who have fallen

And please believe me
Did my eyes deceive me?
Don't stand me up
Just leave me
I have fallen again
This is the end
Pain redefined

Shaking, burning up with the fever
In the realm of pain, I am the deceiver
That will let myself, so I can believer her
But she dissembles my life
I cannot dispel the illusion
All my hopes and dreams are drowned by confusion
Can I find a way to find a solution that will reconfigure my life?

Memories don't lie
You're no better than
Memories don't lie
You're no better than
Memories don't lie
You're no better than
Those who have fallen
Memories don't lie
You're no better than
Memories don't lie
You're no better than
Memories don't lie
You're no better than
Those who have fallen

And please believe me
Did my eyes deceive me?
Don't stand me up
Just leave me
I have fallen again
This is the end
Pain redefined

And I know that stillness shatters
We have all been frightened by the
The sound of footsteps on the pavement of our lives
I stand and fight
I'm not afraid to die
Hypnotized, bury me tonight

Please believe
When the world deceives me
Don't stand me up
Just leave
I have fallen again
This is the end

. . .


Politics and people
All one and the same
Satan hides behind a different name

[Chorus:]
Take these chains away
Free my hands from bondage
Cant explain a way
Avarice will kill you in time

Violent upheaval
Cities drenched in flame
Wickedness we know we can contain

[Chorus]

Who will we murder now
See what we are becoming
An onyx veil that filters out the light
I'll saver this anger
My hate makes me stronger

Free my hands from bondage
Take these chains away
Running from destruction
Avarice will kill you in time

. . .


Endless suffering!

You've made a monster of me,
Through all your wicked lies,
Forever tortured by you,
Abandoned at deaths door.

Until I say no more!
Don't look away, you're just a former regret of mine!
And when you won't just look away, you're just a former regret of mine!
Erasing now!

You've made a rock star of me,
Gave me this wicked life,
Forever tortured by you,
A life I now abhor.

And still I say no more!
Don't look away, you're just a former regret of mine!
And when you won't just look away, you're just a former regret of mine!
Erasing now!

Recover all of the shit in your mind,
Recover antimony within,
Recover all of the shit in your little twisted sick mind,
I've said!
Recover all of the shit in your mind,
Recover antimony within,
Recover all of the shit in your little twisted sick mind,
I've said!

And when you won't just look away, you're just a former regret of mine!
Erasing now!

You've made a monster of me!

Until I say no more!
Don't look away, you're just a former regret of mine!
And when you won't just look away, you're just a former regret of mine!
Erasing now!

. . .


Give into me

[Verse 1:]
Two worlds are warring in me
Killing us now
Raging inside
Pleasure has hollowed in me
Remove the sickness
Plaguing my mind

Two worlds are warring in me
Killing us now
Show me the light

[Chorus:]
Two worlds collide
Whenever I step to the front
I look for a new place to hide
While ?telling out who I hide?
I swallow my pride
I never forget what I want
Starting to long for a time
I bury the war in my mind

[Verse 2:]
Two worlds are warring in me
Both sides are losing
Patience has died
None of them mourner in me
Drowns my completion
Regions divide

Two worlds are warring in me
Killing us now
Show me the light

[Chorus:]
Two worlds collide
Whenever I step to the front
I look for a new place to hide
While ?telling out who I hide?
I swallow my pride
I never forget what I want
Starting to long for a time
I bury the war in my mind

[Bridge:]
Give me a sign
Tell me when it's time
Show me the light
Tell me when it's fucking over

[Chorus:]
Two worlds collide
Whenever I step to the front
I look for a new place to hide
While ?telling out who I hide?
I swallow my pride
I never forget what I want
Starting to long for a time
I bury the war in my mind
