the king is dead cuz we killed him off with his head now we are the villains oh how he bled and it thrilled us off with his head now we are the villains over and over again you always do the same damn thing overthrow your own friends double standards to the end always wearing your disguise this will be your demise the ones you idolize become the ones you victimize the queen is dead cuz we killed her off with her head now we are the villains oh how she bled and it thrilled us off with her head now we are the villains you choose to be what you destroy cheap theatrics you employ you cannot see what you create you have become the thing you hate you’re blind to all you love and all your wisdom from above it’s cheap and used and you’ve abused your right we’ve had enough oh how you bled and it thrilled us off with your heads you are the villains the queen is dead cuz we killed her the king is dead now we are the villains
2.
you are the reason we are the bleeding and this is the season you've started the reaping what we sow is who you are what you hunt is what is ours nothing you say can heal these scars There’s blood in the water, it’s time to sink or swim We’re lost in the deep end, where the ice is paper thin This isn’t how we chose to live, we didn’t choose to die If you try to choose for us again well, we’ll put up a fight Fight for survival, here in the wild I can see it; the bloodlust in your eyes Shoot to kill, shoot to thrill, these brains weren't meant to spill All over the ground
3.
oh no, not me, I’m not the one you want to be I’m reluctant not triumphant not the one you want to see I don't want to talk about war and politics I want to sing about love and innocence this phase is so contagious is this really how you raised us? first you claim to save us then you throw it all away. you degrade us then parade us in a maze of hate conflated with and traded with your faded overrated clichés oh no, here we are again, the same place we started in, with broken backs and broken lives, all of this is so contrived the inspiration is gone, all our friends have jumped the gun they’ve said their sad goodbyes and gone away to the rest of their lives
4.
caught in the trenches a million miles ago blood and guts and mud and rust horrors I'll never know again the sounds of bombs and guns and the ghosts that surrounded us I hear the echoes in my head the cries and screaming of the dead this is a war against everything you are just admit that you are done just admit you're the one who’s going to die come on, just end your life why are you so afraid? you do it all the time come on and blow your mind this is the time for your demise and all the lies you tell yourself to send you straight to hell this is a war against everything you are just admit that you are done just admit you're the one that’s on the killing floor your hands covered in gore go ahead, just try to run from the games you play for fun it’s over, you’re bleeding it’s time to stop the feeding All hope is gone, you are the one there’s no one left to lean on
5.
Martyrs 01:16
all of the bullets and all of the knives can never make up for all of the lives you sacrifice your sons and you sacrifice your daughters you don't understand we're not your martyrs every smile you fake all the lives you take can never make up for all of your hate
6.
Awakening 02:28
Here I am all alone In this house that’s not a home I am out of my mind Please don’t leave me behind Like you did the last time Try to hit that rewind I am not what I am This is not what I planned I have broken my hands I forgot how to stand On my own two feet I am incomplete I am defeated I am depleted Here on my own I am overthrown All I fear it’s all in here This place is such a mess All I hear Inside of my head Is wanting and depressed The ghosts inside of my mind They whisper things, all of the time Who I’ve been, where to begin? This is the start of my Awakening.
7.
you said I'd be okay you said I'd feel no pain you pulled out all of these pins and handed me this grenade you made me all these things you gave me lives and diamond rings you put the gun into my hand and pulled the trigger on all your plans I am the anti-christ my veins are cold as ice I took your sad advice it’s time to pay the price all I'm doing is bleeding every drop of blood onto the floor every single one of them and then you ask for more and just when I think I've had enough that's when you start playing rough I am all alone in this twisted fucked up home You are the anti-christ your veins are cold as ice I took your sad advice it’s time to pay the price
