Held back by hesitation
Living up to expectations
There goes my inspiration
Giving up
I've given in
Why do I lie to myself
Try to be like everyone else
Just get this out of my head
I can't stop this twitch
Why oh why can't I scratch this itch
Slipping through the cracks
And I'm not coming back
I try to keep my grip
Keep losing contact
This life is not enough
I feel so stuck
I gave it all I could
Not like I ever had much
Why do I try to be like everyone else
The perfect boy on display on the shelf
I'm not who I wanted to be
This twitch keeps telling me
Hanging by a thread
The blame is hung over my fucking head
I'm not who I wanted to be
This twitch keeps lying to me
This twitch won't stop
Till I'm fucking dead
But I know I'm perfect
Just the way I am
This life's a bitch
I can't stop this twitch
I'm losing sleep
Why can't I scratch this itch

Excuse me while I lay in my sorrows
With the pathetic pity that I have for myself
I fucking hate you, I fucking hate this disease, I fucking hate myself and every other fucking being.
I look at myself in the mirror, and you know what I see?
A fucking pile of filth with disgraceful pleas.
All this world does, is fucking spite me.
I feel my soul, it's tainted.
And fucking grimy.
I'll never know what the fuck these flaws mean
But I know I'm worthless, that I've fucked it all up, and it's all my fault.
I'm empty inside, hollowed out.
I pretend and pretend but there's always that doubt.
That doubt in myself, embedded in my core, the doubt that swallows all I've ever sworn.
The promises to myself, never kept.
And I repent, I repent, while I hope for death.
Cause I'm a pessimistic fuck.
A contradiction.
Of who I want to be, of who I was, my life is fucking fiction.
I'm a pessimistic fuck, a contradiction.
Every aspect of my life is fucking fiction.
I'm a pessimistic fuck, a contradiction.
Of who I want to be, I'm fucking fiction.
No one knows me, or how I feel.
No one ever will, because I'll never heal.

From the moment that you came around, we could tell what you were all about.
You need to wipe that grin off your face, ‘cause you wont ever be a part.
You’re here for the wrong reason.
You give nothing back!
Keep on taking, keep on faking.
It earns you no respect!
Dime a dozen, you’re a basic kind, I’ve seen it all before.
Too worried about who knows your name.
No one cares now, and no one cared before.
I’m so sick, I’m so sick, I’m so sick of your face!

A sovereign state masked by an abundancy of words and cliches that infest our mind and only make us feel free.
Shoot your political leaders in the head rearrange the game leave them for dead. You dont have our back we tried peace its time to attack. A lack of prosperity becomes reality. Abolish the american dream puppets talk while held by strings.
Take a second to think how you really feel. Open up your eyes to fallacy,greed and fear. This is our time to rise. For our beliefs we will die.
I was taught only to believe in what i can see. Lies and deceit spewed out the mouths of demons surrounding me. These words I speak, the only thing, thats seperating
them from me. Freedoms stripped, corrupted laws, in one nation under fraud.
Words of truth and power fall through the cracks of tyranny
United we stand divided we fall
Through the cracks of this police state
we don our masks and re-emerge anonymously,
guerrilla warfare is our new brand of justice.
Taking control of the streets and putting you in your coffins

Well I know that it’s late, but we know that you ain’t finished yet. I’m drinking till it hurts hoping to forget. Incoherent and in love they are one in the same. Come take another shot and I’ll show you love.
Built upon a nation, suicide and greed. I’ll show you the combination if you would follow me. I am no longer human I need another drink, this oil I consume proves that I am a machine.
Well I thrive off of passion, all the bullshit and love that don’t exist. I’m crippled from the torture and I can’t move my wrists. We all just want to party but life can get the best. I am a fucking rockstar and I’ll die just like the rest.
Built upon a nation suicide and greed. I’ll show you the combination if you would follow me. No loner fearing god, I only fear myself. For I will choose the devil and slowly burn in hell.
Everybody in this fucking world, there’s no hope for anything nor you and I. So no matter what you’re drinking, Let’s all fucking die tonight.
Oh. Where did I go wrong? I thought I had all the answers, but that’s just my luck. It just ain’t the same. This room is spinning but I can’t complain cause I know you will steal my soul. Rock n’ Roll is dead and I fucking killed it. I’ve been whiskey drinking, let the mayhem begin.

The year is 1989, the year I came alive
Thrown into a world expecting high
Now I ask who am I?
Well maybe I was right
I¹m not alive
I¹m broken inside
My life is broken inside
So here I am
I¹m living life
I¹m getting high
Stare at my face
I've seen so many things that you have never seen
How did I survive? I don¹t know
How did I survive? I never know
Well maybe I was right
I¹m not alive
I¹m broken inside
My life is broken inside
I can't read my own mind
Do I even exist or are you all in my head?
I know I won¹t be missed because everything¹s in my head
Well maybe I was right
I¹m not alive
I¹m broken inside
My life is broken inside
Now the world is on my back
O say can you see a dawning light, rip across my face
Rip across my face
I¹m not alive
Now I see
I'm never free

We are the new generation of tyrants
tied together by chains of lies
our blood thickens to an endless supply
We are a matrix of illusion
we are the new generation of tyrants
Stop accusing
stop denying
i will define myself
ignite the war inside my heart
i keep crawling deeper and deeper
I crave all the answers
but fear what may come after
why should i care at all
if it all crumbles before my feet
foreign hordes of sin and desperation meet
an assassin of the greater good
i crave all the answers
The heretics voice continues to tempt me
no memory of living regret free
perceive me with reality
a cup half full leaves our minds half empty
that's an oath you cannot keep
we have never been free
i'm losing myself
face the eyes of the vulture
as he's perched on his nest
identity withered away
night after night day after day
enough is enough
Stand strong
where do i put my trust
stand strong
i've loved and i've lost
i'll let the pressure take its toll
this is my favorite nightmare
you don't know the truth yet
the truth
the path you're on leads to boiling blood
we'll set the world on fire
and we'll watch it burn

20 years later still searching for success
Time after time, I still come out a mess
An endless race, I'm stuck in last place
Feeling down wishing I could be erased
You gotta understand I ain't scared of death
But disappointments got a grip, and I can't catch my breath
So much to lose
With the world to prove
So much to lose
I'm alright I'll be just fine
With the world to prove
Stuck at the bottom, still waiting for that sign
Bright and early, I kick into gear
Patience wearing thin, seconds turn to years
The clocks tickin slow, why the fuck can't I keep up?
It's true what they say
"You reap what you sow"
At the end of the day, I still fall short
Don't need your pity, don't want your support
So much to lose
With the world to prove
Endless cycle, forever stuck
Just waiting to die, I'm out of luck
Ambitions and desires, in a wreck
I sit here with this noose tied to my neck
I've lost everything
Nothing left to prove

My mind is a prison.
This is my hell.
Where all the roads lead to home
and all the devils speak
in the tongues of my friends that I used to know.
The place where my heart feels the heaviest.
I discern this and I don't want to be saved.
This torment is what I deserve.
Lost somewhere between the past and the present.
I am meant to be a shattered soul.
The closer I get, the further it feels.
What am I to do?
The dream-catcher above my bed
hasn't helped me sleep in months.
That dream-catcher was worthless
and ill never take that medication.
You always said that I was weak
and I never proved that I was strong.
There's a noose hanging from the ceiling
and its the only place I've ever belonged.

its not the first time that ive felt this way
a constant darkness
it eats me up everyday
im not just down,
its like im stuck underground.
and everytime i find myself on my feet im just let down,
I wont let myself drown.
everyface, everyplace, everything a fuckin waste,
we give our lives for just one taste
its safe to say i cherish everyday
no giving up im here to stay.
my, my head feels heavy, hopes are low
but i will not be the one to show.
everything i want to get back, slowly fades and away and turns black.
Less motivation everyday, I never thought these feeings would stay. x3
I dont want to end up like the rest.

can we find what we lost
a world worth seeing through ones torn vision
we are the strength of whats not been beatin
we were the heart that breaths with the beat
the strength that speaks without feat
we were the smile to inspire all that are tired
of this world that we live in
that only conspires against the ones that choose defeat
i will not choose defeat
i will not rest until we find our best
