"Come & Take It"

​

Hold your breath, and puff out your chest

Slap your face until you can make sense of this

Look away to lose contact

to forget why you ever thought that

​

Hold your guard, don't let it down,

Not for a second, don't make a sound.

Hold your tongue, please don't let it out

The fear of learning what it is all about 

​

Just a little while longer...

Just a few more hours

Just a little while longer...

Just a few more minutes

Just a little while longer...

Just a few more seconds

​

Guard this secret with all of your life

Don't you tell a soul, 

cause they'll know that you've tried 

There's no going back! 

You can't take it back!

Once you have said what you have said 

​

All of the thoughts will flood your head 

Pretty soon, there will be nothing left

All of the hope has been mislead

So say a prayer and lie your best...

​

Swear on your soul.

Swear on your grave.

Swear on your life.

Cross your heart and hope to die.

​

Now? (NOW!)

HOW ABOUT NOW?!

​

Take my hand.

I am ready.

​

Come and take it.

​

​

​

“An Empty Vessel”

​

I am so (broken)

Every single piece of me

I am so (torn apart)

Relinquished; I admit defeat

Avoided (like the plague)

Put the walls up!

Nothing left to see!

An empty (vessel)

Wipe the slate clean of me

​

“Be that as it may…”

​

It’s not the fall that gets you

It’s the sudden stop at the end (x2)

​

If I could do it all the same, 

I would not (I would not)

I’d throw it all away

If I had just one shot,

I’d never take another one again.

​

Be that as it may.

Please just get me through today…

​

​

​

“Demon Parade”

​

MARCH ON! 

And we're at it again now 

And you better pick up the pace! 

There isn't much more time to waste. 

Don’t you fall on your face, 

or you will be replaced! 

​

Fists all afire in the air. 

Distorting your vision with just one stare. 

So scared to look, 

The sight no one can even bare. 

​

And they press on 

And they push on 

And they carry on… 

As they move along 

How they march along 

Every single second, 

Every single minute, 

Getting so much stronger.. 

​

(I can feel them building up…) 

All of these demons... follow me now 

(I can’t take it anymore) 

​

All of these demons, follow me now 

Strength in numbers pummel the crowd 

All of these demons follow in line 

Little by little, every single time. 

​

Then they force through 

As they follow through 

But I’m pushing through 

And I’m telling you, 

I won’t die without a fight 

No, not here. 

No, not there. 

Not today, and not tonight. 

​

(I can feel them drawing near…) 

All of these demons... facing me now 

​

Bringing the terror, nothing to fear 

All my visions becoming so much more clear 

All of these demons; now you will hear 

I refuse to follow 

I am now your fucking leader 

​

I will lead the demon parade. 

I will do whatever it takes 

Putting everyone of them in their place. 

I will lead the demon parade now 

I will do whatever it takes now 

Putting every one of them in their place

​

​

"Silent Convictions"

​

What else have I got left to say?

What are the thoughts floating in my head?

Bouncing back and forth with no action now

Sequences playing so vividly

Stepped inside this trap that I have built

Drowning deep in my own shame and guilt

Finally admitting this to myself,

There’s nothing wrong with asking for a bit of help

“Look me in the eyes,

And tell me the truth.

For once in your life,

Please just tell the truth

And just tell me why,

Do you do the things you do…?”

Self-deprecating, but it is so liberating

To finally get this all off of my chest

To say the least, you tried your best

But was it good enough?

Or shy of too much?

Push away everyone that really cares

Then I wonder why I never get anywhere

Why do I always do this to myself?

Never-ending, expecting different results…

​

How do I plead?

Nothing but guilty...

I am guilty.

I have put myself here

No one left to blame

I have put myself in this place

Please forgive me...

Lock me up and throw away the key

Go ahead and toss me overseas
