"The Giant"

"The Giant"


It’s not so bad, I’m Dr. Strange
My broken heart, I have to face
My broken heart, Hell’s on its way

My time to start, procrastinate
I feel alive, I fucking hate
There’s nothing left, there’s nothing right
If there’s no point, why do we fight?

Welcome to my vicious circle
Trying to escape, break out!
Playing with my knife until it cuts me
Giant walking, no more talking
In my way and one way out
Fighting me forever, I’ll break the giant down

Caught between the lines of right and wrong yeah
Caught between the things that I don’t know
Up and down the mountain climbing, climbing
Drowning in a ocean to find my soul

I have to win, I never lose
I’ll have my way, you have to choose
War all the time, I’m fucking fierce
War all the time, what do I fear?
The giant walks, the giant eats
Out of control, the giant beats
And breaks you down, with all your might
With nothing left, and still I fight

"Think About An End"

"Think About An End"


Wake up on fire every day
And I never say goodbye
Pre-determined destiny
I've never been afraid to die

Ever since i was a kid
I've seen things my own way, with my own eyes
With my hands i turn the screws
In my life i decide

You're bent on under the will of endless dogmatic restraints
I will rage against the machine* spewing out blind faith#

Think about an end u can live with
Think about an end i can give u
Think about an end that would satisfy

The only thing that's touched my soul
Ever in my life of love
Tangible and Physical visable
Unlike your god above

Where is all the mercy on which your faith has been built
All i see is hatred caused by years of inbred guilt

Resurrecting genuflecting killing in the name*
You disavow the right to choose
Its medievally insane

Your god is dead or doesn't care
Tell me which ones worse
An uncaring god or knowing that your alone on this earth?

"This Battle Chose Us"

"This Battle Chose Us"


You give them Hell
Straight to the chin
If you can't win
Their hearts and minds
On the first try
Up and say aye!
AYE!
They'll listen

Fires are raging and the sirens scream
And your pathetic life has run out of road
If you were offered eternity
Would it slip through your fingers to wicked to hold?
Rebel
Backslider
Reach higher
You give them Hell
You give them

Hell this ain't no warning
You give'em hell because you must
It's a long hard road we're walking
Because this battle chose us
This battle chose us, this battle chose us

A gang of blood
And by killing so distilling
A simple plan
Never settle our true mettle
Yeah!
They'll listen
Fires are raging and the sirens scream
And your pathetic life has run out of road
If you were offered eternity
Would it slip through your fingers to wicked to hold?
Rebel
Backslider
Reach higher
You give them Hell
You give them

Hell this ain't no warning
You give'em hell because you must
It's a long hard road we're walking
Because this battle chose us
This battle chose us, this battle chose us

Hell, you give them Hell

You can't choose your battles, you can't choose your battles, this battle chose us

You give'em Hell
This battle chose us, you can't choose your battles

Battle!

"This Is Not An Exit"

"This Is Not An Exit"


I know I'll never be free
Change doesn't come easy
And if I'll never be free
You'll live in hell with me

Fear, a contradiction
Co-existence, darkness brought to light
My own skin don't seem to fit me right
Pain is my way, of self expression
A fatal choice that always hangs above
Love what I kill, kill what I love

I run, you run, you stop and then you take it
I run, you run, I stop and then you get it
I run, you run, you stop and then you take it
I run, you run, I stop and then you get it

From me,
The one who's giant steps ahead of where you'd be
What you don't see
I know I'll never save myself
Dying from this immortality

This is not an exit
I can never change it
This is not an exit
It's no way

Out, out of touch with
Mortal thoughts, humanity's a dream
Things are not what they seem
Hungry for you, but not to hurt you
Hunger for the secret of your life
I'm a timeless clock and you kill time

This is not an exit
I can never change it
You stop and then you take it
I stop and I can't fake it
This is not an exit

Pain is my way of self expression
A fatal choice hangs above
Love what I kill, kill what I love
Love...

This is not an exit
This is not an exit
I can never change it
This is not an exit
Hand over fist
Come and taste my dark trick
Hand over fist
Kill you when I give it
This is not an exit
This is not an exit
I can never change it

"Toast To The Extras"

"Toast To The Extras"


Swimming on the surface
It's a hell of a lot safer up here
Ain't prepared to dive
And uncover all my darkest fears
This ain't no covert operation
I don't have that much concentration

Staring at the clock
And my patience is wearing thin
One more down the gullet
Keeps me from jumping out of my skin
This ain't no covert operation
I'm lost in this fog of contradiction

I toast to the extras
I drink to them cause they don't talk too much
They fill up space and entertain
And when I cut em loose, they don't make a fuss
They all add up to zero in my mind
They're just here to cure the boredom for the night

Now sometimes this leaves me feeling hollow
That's when I take refuge in my pillow
This ain't no covert operation
I'm not even ready for confession

I toast to the extras
I drink to them cause they don't talk too much
They fill up space and entertain
And when I cut em loose, they don't make a fuss
They all add up to zero in my mind
They're just here to cure the boredom for the night

That's right

"Watchin' You"
(originally by Kiss)

"Watchin' You"
(originally by Kiss)



Livin' as you do and I'm watchin' you
And you don't really know a-just what to do

You don't really know
You don't really know
What to do

And I'm standin' here not quite aware
And I'm tryin' baby, tryin' not to stare

Ooh, 'cause everybody else is here
Yes, everybody else is here
Everybody else is here
Watchin' you

Ooh, 'cause everybody else is here
Yes, everybody else is here
Everybody else is here
Watchin' us

"We've Come For You All"

"We've Come For You All"


The mind can atrophy
such mediocrity
things aren't what they seem
sometimes
and every waking dream
repeating central theme
if we don't wake up do we die?
and when the best can be
worse than what's usually
found it's all between
the lines
then patience starts to bleed
increasing enmity
its time to let the bullets fly

developed all exposure
revealing no composure
the gates are open wide
the wrecking ball is here
your chest contains no treasure
the prisoners are loose
we've come for you all

pay the expected fee
for the insanity
now the reflection's deeply
lined
all systems fail and seize
break down and spill the grease
aggressive tendencies designed

and every element
will force a consequence
it takes a slanted state of mind
then patience starts to bleed
increasing enmity
it's time to let the bullets fly

"What Doesn't Die"

"What Doesn't Die"


First in last out overthrown
It's been picked clean to the bone
And so hard to remember things
Like when we used to kill our kings
Crusading for hypocrisy
Under our nose the holy bleed
Crumbling under its own weight
Apologies if you relate
'cause
You cannot kill
What doesn't die
Live up to my promise
My full potential realized
Death lives right inside your pocket
Take him out and have a laugh
Go and piss your life away
Another ugly waste of clay
And up above there's no one home
Why don't you answer your phone?
Reminding me to learn that poem
First in last out overthrown
Because
A stream of consciousness flows into a river of blood
Stem this tide of violence
as it rises like a flood

"Who Cares Wins"

"Who Cares Wins"


Close your eyes to the horror
Close your eyes to the pain
When you live in a box
No one knows your name
Living in the street
Moms and kids with nothing to eat
Welfare hotels
Who says there's no place called hell

I can't see you
I can't hear you
You don't see me
You couldn't be me
Who cares wins

There but for the grace of god
There but for the grace of god
Who cares, who cares, who cares, who cares
There but for the grace of god
There but for the grace of god...
Go you or I
Open your eyes
You don't see me
You couldn't be me

Invisible could be my name
Your excuses are so lame
Real pleas fall on deaf ears
Look away when I'm near
Freezing cold in winter's heat
Burning up can be a treat
Blisters breaking on my feet
At least I get a subway seat

I can't see you
I can't hear you
You don't see me
You couldn't be me
Who cares wins

There but for the grace of god
There but for the grace of god
Who cares, who cares, who cares, who cares
There but for the grace of god
There but for the grace of god...

Go you or I
Open your eyes
You don't see me
You couldn't be me
Who cares wins

Self help and preservation
Not now I'm on vacation
Priority is you
And screw all those around you

Now's the time for you to share
Indifference you have to care
Deep inside you know it's true
How do I get through to you
Open your eyes to the horror
Open your eyes to the pain
When you live in a box
No one knows your name

[CHORUS]

"You Gotta Believe"

"You Gotta Believe"


You can die screaming
Or you can give me what I want
I'm gonna get it, get it either way
And I can't let it be
Viciously
Relentless pursuit of vengeance
And I won't let it be
Viciously

Impaled
You all shall hail
You're just a bag of blood and I'm holding the nail
You gotta believe, you gotta believe
Impaled
And I never fail
You're just a bag of blood and I'm holding the nail

You gotta believe, you gotta believe

You're slowly dying
There's no more lying
I'm not your friend I never was I work alone
And I won't let it go ‘cause you're so
Brutal i
In your refusal

I just won't let it be
Viciously

Impaled
You all shall hail
You're just a bag of blood and I'm holding the nail
You gotta believe, you gotta believe
Impaled
And I never fail
You're just a bag of blood and I'm holding the nail
You gotta believe, you gotta believe
Impaled
The holy grail
Your goddamned soul is my white whale
You gotta believe, you gotta believe
Impaled

And you all shall hail
You're just a bag of blood and I'm holding the nail
You gotta believe, you gotta believe in me

In the small numbers when order sleeps and the streets are mine
It's a time and a place where I can thrive
And burn you with my demon eye
In my life the things I've seen
Inhumanly brutal the worst extreme
I torture me because I can
Obscene the soul of every man
In my life the things I've seen

Inhumanly brutal the worst extreme
I torture you because I can
Ive seen the soul of every man is fucking damned to a fate,
and dead if you don't, and damned if you do, and dead if you won't
Impaled

Impaled
You all shall hail
You're just a bag of blood and I'm holding the nail
You gotta believe, you gotta believe
Impaled
And I never fail
You're just a bag of blood and I'm holding the nail
You gotta believe, you gotta believe
In me
