Violent, manic, fatal pressure Fade to white Stack is short Burn the rest and start again Fade to white Stack is short Burn the rest and start again And I welcome the loss of the rotten soul But you keep holding us back because you always want the Violent, manic, fatal pressure

I walk Vision's flattening Stop from underneath I've been shifting, stumbling, body's numb Control means nothing Oh how will this end Break Heartbeat's dampening Catch this with my teeth I'm counting the minutes The red tape's calling Oh how will this end It's on the arm for you Don't fucking move, listen My head is split System is blistered I know what failure is I'm not convinced Bleeding ourselves when solutions don't fit I give the question back Suffer through the times spent waiting for the blackout All signs are pointed to a fake monument of wings, snakes Circling the body Time is distorted around me Scarring reveals every truth I can't recall the start and the end of it all The light separates into colors in the shape of you
3.
Full Tilt 04:39
I need two broken arms to hold numbers up Three accused of knowing They gave us up for the riches and the golden key to the void I'll be the one who will say when I'll be the one who says when this will end It's the room that's in a constant spin I'll keep the world outside I'll let the liars in And every word they said Turns into wasted years I won't forget I won't forget that Is the room still spinning now (all around) Must break or turn to lead I'm repercussions of all failed decisions We can't stop We'll start it over Barely listening when we pulled the alarms Every person was running away And I'm asking Is the room still spinning now I won't fill this well With grief With pain You vulture You fading memory All, I want it all I want it
4.
The Ladder 04:19
We've been hidden from a truth worth living for Precious are the moments leaving us Worship all the gold you bought and sold It's been all we've known Absurd existence It's been all we've known We came from the stars We came here from millions of miles To grow from the earth just to end up back inside it The time in between that we spend To march in a similar fashion The ladders we climb, have the same nails in our own coffins Bloodshot in a crowd of ravenous eyes Bloodshot in a crowd of ravenous eyes Absurd existence It's been all we've known I remember the way you reflect off the moon Fall from the grey in passing We've given up the meaning, the reasons we're living our lives Giving up our lives I remember the way you reflect off the moon Fall from the grey in passing Filling up with visions I've been Filling up with visions when you fall Reposition, it's life or death The knife's a mirror, it meets the neck Run it Cleanse and profit Absurd existence It is such a shame we've learned to love
5.
The Mirror 01:45
I, I'll ask to break free from this mirrored edge (It's what brings me home tonight) From the outside there's a break in the line, it's blurring the vision You would feel pain if you're playing the part in a brief intermission (Give it up and throw it away) But you never know, never know Take it from me, the fast moves slowly from the grey (It's what brings me home tonight) It's what brings me home tonight
6.
Only by Name 04:13
Beckon, the perfect bottom feeder Face it, you're just a grifter They're surrounding the cabin, now open fire I'm about to be found out now Sinking, always sinking You're just a grifter Taking steps to the bottom till you finally found out how I'll never see the moon strike twelve Please, let it go when you drag on and on to the tail of a verse I am alive, but only by name I am a ghost but only to myself Beckon, the perfect bottom feeder Face it, you're just a number I keep feeling the wheels turning the tables But I can't feel it take control Exit through the same old story There's a flood of consequence Exit through the same old story so the flood won't take me I'll never see the moon strike twelve Please, let it go when you drag on and on to the tail of a verse I can invent it Built and cemented I gave you my name You went and spent it, I was offended (I was offended) We've come across feelings of knowing Left on the table the objects were looking at me, look at me The sun breached through As God as my witness I'll storm past the guards and live out my delusion I don't care I'll take you with me I've done it again In the wake of a whisper I took all the pain at the wrist Information blacks out I'll deny it until I die Right, right Always right, right I'll say it, everything that you think will be mine Underneath the stained glass coffin Where the light will meet the earth I'll say it, everything you think

I feel weightless In the motions Just an empty touch so no one else feels the same thing I'm the white noise in the background of the last remarks you said The air seems colder from the inside It's like you were there The flashing cameras from the outside look in They, they'll find me running from the motions of the day I'm almost certain of the end Nothing happens Unimportant Just an empty touch so no one else sees the smoke from the backseat In a time when the crime felt quietly our own An empty color from the inside It's like you were there The view is filtered from the outside Look in They, they'll find me running from the motions of the day I'm almost certain of the end I won't make it back We'll watch all the flames surround me You won't speak the truth So let the flames speak for me The air seems colder from the inside Look in They, they'll find me running from the motions of the day I'm almost certain of the end I feel weightless in the motions Just an empty touch so no one else feels the same thing I'm the white noise in the background of the last remarks you said
8.
I can't be everything for everyone and anyone Who begs for the view from the peak Watch them chasing numbers Gnawing at the heels to feel the rush Of the worldwide distraction Higher I climb (reaching) Low as it gets (pleading) Higher I climb (reaching) Low as it gets See it as it's written It leaves a plastic taste inside the mouth Lost my voice Lost my message What's the point if no one's looking at me Lost my voice My message What's the point if no one's looking at me For the view from the peak Stranger give me comfort I seek Manufactured crowding the feed Stranger give me comfort I seek Manufactured crowding the feed And the strangers give me comfort I seek Fail to impress Fail to impress False status in comfort they seek Reaching for the status With their empty hands, they'll worship And worship and worship
9.
Gatekeeper 03:39
I want I want a vacant stage all to myself I want my name in lights but no one else Can coexist in this place You won't be seen in this town again if you won't listen Lean on the crutch that we need Just to stand for all the meek Keep them out, it's the cost No re-entry This is my town End up face down This is my town End up face down I'd rather be the fucking monster I'd rather make it feel like this one's all for me And it's all right, it's alright I won't be stopped cause I fought to get here It's all mine Burning the building down with us inside it I'd rather be the fucking monster I'd rather make it feel like this one's all for me And it's all right, it's alright I'll be at my own throat counting backward I'll be locking them out Light the match and pray This is my town End up face down End up face down Gatekeeper Overstayed the welcome Rhythmic push and pull I brought us together You can thank me later I'd rather be the fucking monster I'd rather make it feel like this one's all for me And it's all right, it's alright I'm going to stay up here forever I'm way too numb to feel it pouring down on me And it's alright, it's alright

No Comply 03:13
I spent these years in a deep regression You put the faith in the palm of his hand I want to be the voice of future riots I want to win, it doesn't matter the cost I dare you to take it Pressing against the machine It's okay, I didn't feel anything Pressing against the machine It's okay, I left and felt nothing Let go, it doesn't matter the cost It doesn't matter I spent these years in a deep regression You put the faith in the palm of his hand I want to be the voice of future riots I want to win, it doesn't matter the cost I dare you to take it I'll wait for it Wave goodbye I speak in words that you don't understand All your heroes You'll take the blame for it I won't be wrong You'll take the blame for it I dare you, I dare you to take it
11.
I got a bright future, I got some bad habits You want a blood red street, well you can fucking have it I haven't seen the end but we all heard it before Put on your Sunday best and give me four on the floor I've already beat the odds right down your throat When your mouth got in the way Spinning that bullshit into something we believed Can't take it back, damage is done And I'll look the other way Just to see it's the same Don't you dare speak my name The words are at my back, the air is getting thin I'm where the culture ends, you're where the panic begins Don't ask for me to clear the fear, I'm already gone Sit right there, you're nothing, keep doing nothing I spent lifetimes slowly dragging your dead weight When your mouth got in the way Spinning that bullshit into something we believed Can't take it back, damage is done And I'll look the other way Just to see it's the same Don't you dare speak my name Poisonletter, dig no deeper When your mouth got in the way Spinning that bullshit into something we believed Can't take it back, damage is done And I'll look the other way Just to see it's the same Don't you dare speak my name I'll look the other way When your mouth got in the way Spinning that bullshit into something we believed Can't take it back, damage is done

Everything that you wanted turns to ash Opposition's the motive You won't pass Three steps forward, four steps backward There's no onward Speak your piece I am what comes from the ashes You're not the first to oppose me I'm claiming the top of the hill Now the opposed has the floor You, you will be lost Without me because you will always be underneath I, I'm out for blood I want the peak I want the history to read I went through hell I took it all They'll speak of when the dark horse won If you could see all the angles You, you will be lost Without me because you will always be underneath If you could see all the angles You'll take the option to fail and burn it all away Everything you took, I take back Opposition's gone, I'll walk past Ten steps forward, one step backward I'll look onward Speak your piece From the book of the racing forward From the mouth of the lamb I'm the one underneath
