Another backhanded move
Watching all the games you play
Another lie that can sooth
The mind you had at bay
I was the pawn this, Whole time
I thought we had more, With time
You can play another life, Not mine
Go play another game, Not mine
What did it take
To become so fucking heartless
What did it take
Cause you know you’re fucking heartless
I was the pawn this, Whole time
I thought we had more, With time
You can play another life, Not mine
Go play another game, not mine

Empire

This pain in our people
Thanks to our fake prophets
Leading into the unknown
With false promise
Watching helplessly
As you break down your fellow man
Watching carelessly
On top of our man made mountain
In the light of the fire
You look away
In the might of your empire
You take away
In the light of the fire (the light of the fire)
In the might of your empire
You take away
You take away
You take away
Sitting atop your throne
Can’t wait ’till I can get my hands around you
Cut your eyes out
Cut your throat out
We’ll overthrow this throne
Watching helplessly
As you break down your fellow man
Watching carelessly
On top of our man made mountain
In the light of the fire
You look away
In the might of your empire
You take away
You take away
We’ll overthrow this throne

Self Indulgence
02:36

Dwelling on your shame
Realize you’re now what you named
I can see the blood flow through you
Eyes roll back, invested in the black
Destiny
The road before you
Lost among the painted sky
Shattered are your dreams
Crumbling
The earth before you
Frost stole your tongue
Sit and watch it burn
Get away
Tattered your skin is
Suffering your heart is
All this self indulgence
Make or break
Blistered your arm is
Eroding your mind is
All this self indulgence
All the eyes
gather around you
I can see the shame
Overcome you
I hope you realize
What life had before you
I hope you realize
Don’t let it stop you
Another promise broken
Here we are
With what remains
Another promise broken
Here we are
With what remains
So ignorant
You are
What remains
Can’t tell the difference
Between
What remains

Eroding
03:02

Torn apart from the inside
I can’t help but watch
It pull me from the entrails
Of the man I deserve to be
I am the darkness
I am the light
Watch me pull myself
From this misguided blight
I am the master
I am the master
I am
I am
I am eroding
Withered from the inside out
I am eroding
Master of my undermining doubt
What’s left of me
Rebuilt from the pieces
And will be reborn
A new man shaped in time
I am the darkness
I am the light
Watch me pull myself
From this misguided blight
I am the master
I am the master
I am
I am
I am eroding
Withered from the inside out
I am eroding
Master of my undermining doubt
I am the master
I am the master
I am
Eroding

Rebuilt

I could swear you said
I didn’t need you then
With my back against the wall
A broken man, but grew so tall
When my world shot down
I said I needed you
Now I’ve built it back
I thought you had my back
I thought you had my back
These open wounds that bled
I didn’t need you then
Standing beneath cliffs so tall
A broken man, that had his fall
I know you heard me say
That I didn’t need you then
With my back against the wall
This broken man, had grown too tall
We all lived the lie
Watched you hollow inside
Why was I so blind
Why were we so blind
We all turned the eye
Shut out the outside
Why were we so blind
When my world shot down
I said I needed you
Now I’ve built it back
I thought you had my back
I thought you had my back
