The Past 04:16
A path to close your eyes Your whole life you closed your eyes It all comes back Time to feel it again The child is back Time to feel it again The child is back Time to be me again My whole life I thought I was whole What I thought was wrong Now my world is gone All these years I’ve wasted my time With all these feelings Remaining inside Buried young one Child inside Rotting child Corrupted inside The idiot’s face Is on your face Distorts and squeezes The horror of ruin The idiot’s face Is on your face Contorts and bleeds The horror of ruin May all this pain Come back to you May all this pain Return to you The hate from the past The child from the past The child from the past Made my reality at last

I Fall 05:10
Any way at all I will find a way to fall find the thing I need I destroy then I feed Respite I needed tonight love and stars I needed tonight find the thing I need I destroy then I feed

Always Leave 04:11
I am living in this world on my own I just have my life it's all my own This world it didn't give me very much I don't have a lot I don't have enough If I had to stay here one more day well I won't I'm gonna go away I have not needed you for very long you're not worth much to be around to be around to be around not worth that much to be around chorus: Me oh I know I want to go If I was to go would you know? would you care? would you think I'd dare? I am living in my world on my own I just have me I'm alone Oh this life It is not worth much not much that much I'm not worth much If i had to stay here one more day well i won't I'm gonna go away I have not needed you for very long you're not worth much to be around to be around to be around not worth that much to be around chorus I have lived in my own world long enough I'm done with me I don't want this stuff Oh my life I'm living i don't know I cannot even love me why would you

Fiery Road 04:54
The burning sails of my ship the winds blown from your soul The burning sails of our ship the winds blown from our souls Come and gaze with me at our fiery road home I told you how much blood I had to give and how much time you had to forgive Now it’s about you and i weaving, our eyes alive Pleading for the sharpest life hands held tight our mouths wide Now it's about you and I See your face dissolve into the warmness of my sea Rivers they make the sea If I wait long enough I'll be a rock in your sea Patiently watching water on your bones I hoped that your water would purify me And take me home Come and gaze with me at our fiery road home Come and walk with me down the fiery road home

Down from my eyes World alive inside me Bright now capsized World I sent away On my little waters Darker than the sea Master of all my feelings Please protect me I will arise With or without what's me Life won't tread on me Life won't keep me still Chorus--- I have a way there is a way, you'll be the master, you'll be the slave You’ll be the one that takes it away, I'll be the one that gives you today My little problem with feeling pain Every time I try it’s not there again I've bled too much For the weakest answer I have my strength I have my mind In my life I'm living I don't even want hope I want the sea to hold me I'll just swim away If I can't have Escape from all that harms me I know the answer I will free the slave -chorus Life of waters One I never answered One I always needed One I put below me Why would I choose To discard my only answer I couldn't take it I still can't at all If I had a loophole If I had the easy way I wouldn't do this I would drown it all

There Alone 04:09
know who the real one is dancing in the mirror with a greased blade in his hand slipping me the middle finger armed me with complacency bribed me with the disposition of an apathetic man chorus: i know who’s the real one i know you’re not the real one i know who’s the real one i know i’m not the real one image of the opposed superior reconstruction idiom of the idiot champ image of repressed majestic form of destruction what a pathetic stupid man the agent of my destruction the superior bred spawn of mine a mistake in the formation a victory over size i know who the failed one is glorious in glass tableau with a deceptive act in hand i saw who the real one is he was dancing in the mirror triumphant were his eyes how piteous, this man
