Poisoned love burning through my veins Public suicide for sale, or so they say Hit the lights boy, take it off girl Pay the piper for you're far too gone to care Don't they see what they've become? Twisted, turning inside out But I won't let them change me I've seen it happen all before Skin on skin, the pleasure's worth the pain The price to pay is worth the cost, or so they say Take the hit boy, fall in line girl A life of solitude is all you'll ever know Don't they see what they've become? Twisted, turning inside out But I won't let them change me I've seen it happen all before Don't they see what they've become? Twisted, turning inside out But I won't let them change me I've seen it happen all before

Another summer night alone Days grow short, the air grows colder But it's hot as hell within the confines of this small town Twenty-three never seemed so old Wind is whistling through the trees that gave us shelter Seasons change and so have I A change of seasons brings a bittersweet reminder Of friendships lost along the way Colors fade, until I find my way back home Cold wind blowing once again Drifting forward, looking back Dressed in black, the sun has set, we must move on now Silence lingers through these halls Snow is falling on the streets that gave us guidance Lost until we find our way A change of seasons brings a bittersweet reminder Of friendships lost along the way Colors fade, until I find my way back home

Ecstasy 04:12
I'll write myself away Burn my eyes for you Ecstasy is everything we need Fame and fortune will bring you to your knees and die Will you remember me? When all is said and done We spend our lives chasing what we want Abusing love and trying to forget all we know

Take me downtown And teach me your tricks I'll learn quite well And don't think too much Make me your muse And show me your game I'll show you mine But not without a trade The sun has set, let's dance Torture me so well Nevermind their stares Forever watching us again Evergazing eyes, lead me to you know Evergazing eyes, staring through me now

Underground 03:29
It's been a long year, living underground With no place to call my own And there's no shelter here, standing in the cold And nobody even knows Oh lord, you let me down Laid my friend beneath the ground Burn my letters, hold my calls 'Till there's nothing left at all A week's gone by, the changes written on the wall He was a boy about my age He slipped and fell into a never-ending sleep Left his stories on the page Oh lord, you let him down Cut him off and shut him up How'd you like it if I played you just the same? Oh wait, I think that I just did It's been a long year, living underground Hanging pictures on the wall Won't you break me from this prison cell so cold? And lead me down that hall Oh lord, you let us down Cut the cord and watch us burn Won't you laugh it up? There's more to go around Don't you know that it's your turn?

Welcome home to the land of the free Free to lose your mind A bill of rights, but who's right to be so wrong? Woken up again from an American Dream Back to reality, a sad shadow of a nation long lost Corrupt with power but not entitled to use it Propaganda force fed to us like pigs prepared for a slaughter While gluttonous hogs feast off our bones If you're wrong, take it out on me And if you're right, there's nothing left to say And if you've won, turn your rust to gold But if you're wrong, throw yourself away Resurgence of the fourth reich here in America Silently, swiftly, creepin' through your area Hysteria No rights left from Miranda As she feeds us propaganda like a fuckin' cafeteria Give us a voice just to zip up our lips Given no choice but just to stick to the script 'Cuz improvisation is a threat to the nation An invasion on the United States of Corporation A stain on the image they keep tryin' to paint The portrait of sinner, depicted as a saint But a saint ain't meant to be one to deceive Abuse power and cease to occupy overseas But when we as a people occupy Wall Street We get beaten and sprayed, cuffed and taken away Nothing less than Marshal Law with the NDAA They just label us as terrorists and lock us in the bay If you're wrong, take it out on me And if you're right, there's nothing left to say And if you've won, turn your rust to gold But if you're wrong, throw yourself away

End(less) 04:21
Visions of my past appear to me in my sleep Thoughts long forgotten, manifest themselves Within the depths of my mind Reason and logic cannot explain The happenings within my head Insomnia is nothing new, a habit long accustomed Hours spent pondering my interpretation Of right and wrong Piercing the silence of words unspoken Desperation makes its plea Staring blankly into a future unknown by all Why I put myself through this endless torment? I'll never know Wounds heal with time, or so we're told So what happens when time stands still?
