I've got a fire over me And you can't feel it I've got a light that I can see And you can't see it I've got a god inside of me And I'm his puppet I've got a personal deity A Holy Spirit Spirit Spirit I've got a fire over me And you can't feel it I've got a light that I can see And you can't see it I've got a god inside of me And I'm his puppet I've got a personal deity A Holy Spirit Spirit Spirit

Wrong Side 04:07
I want to go back down I want to crawl inside I need to feel it because I need reminding of what it's like To breathe Of all temptations I've felt Of all delights I've tried to hide Nothing ever gets me through Or makes me feel the way you do You breathe You bleed You dive Repeat Once more around the block The rush to greet you, the ticking clock I gotta get back to it every night Burn up the angel and be my guide And if I take one bullet, I'll take them all Learn to stand up or suffer the fall I'm on the wrong side On the wrong side On the wrong side I want to burn in its truth I want to feel it deep inside Beaded drop of more cold sweat As I hold back the numbness in my mind To breathe To bleed To dive Repeat Dark recognition of change Snuff out the thoughts, bury the pain I cannot wait to go under with you I cannot wait to play your game You breathe You bleed You dive Repeat Once more around the block The rush to greet you, the ticking clock Gotta get back to it every night Burn up the angel and be my guide If I take one bullet, I'll take them all Learn to stand up or take the fall I'm on the wrong side On the wrong side On the wrong side

Lipstick is running down the drain She goes out in the pouring rain The shadows of his hateful crime Her target locked on him tonight The Hand The Knife has come Her judgement has begun She draws her blade to kill with ease Her pain now sharpened into beast Nothing but vengeance in her eyes His sentence cast, it's time to die The Hand The Knife has come The Hand The Knife has come Her judgment has begun And he will be undone The Hand The Knife has come His final moments of despair She holds his head up by the hair And in the morning light revealed All power bending to her will The night was fearless, now the dawn The Hand The Knife has come

Run 03:55
The neon lights surround me In this dark and wasted Cityscape I'm sinking from the weight Web of lies Impossible to cut my way out Suffocate My last gasp another sound in the night Every day I run Searching for the sun But it just isn't there No it just isn't there Every night I fall Locked inside these walls I've got to catch my breath Before there's nothing left Cowardice and deceit Thrown at me from all sides Deteriorate Consuming precious time Whispers of Another life to carve out for myself They can keep their hate Swimming in it, consuming all of their filth Every day I run Searching for the sun But it just isn't there No it just isn't there Every night I fall Locked inside these walls I've got to catch my breath Before there's nothing left Run, run, run, run Run, run, run, run RUN Run, run, run, run Run, run, run, run Every day I run Searching for the sun But it just isn't there No it just isn't there Every night I fall Locked inside these walls I've got to catch my breath Before there's nothing left

The Product 02:45
Targeted identities customized for you and me You Public personalities turning us to commodities You We can't find our way out We want to forget No passion or real creation Just working to live When the product When the product Is you When the product When the product Is you Everything is on display, this is the digital age You Just existing like a ghost Missing all that matters most You No sense of direction Living to survive Too busy, distracted Away from real life When the product When the product Is you When the product When the product Is you When the product When the product Is you When the product When the product Is you Living to survive When the product When the product Is you When the product We can't find our way out We want to forget No passion in creation Everything is Everything is Everything is You

Trying to slip the chain that forces you down Whitewashed and painted over, it waits With feelings of all pain and pleasure It will know, it can see through lies Blood paints a picture on your wall In patterns of a marble hall Blood paints a picture on your wall In patterns of a marble hall Wishing all that you knew was only a dream Living and breathing slowly, slow dive Taking the weight of oceans, sinking It takes you, it will pull you down Blood paints a picture on your wall In patterns of a marble hall Blood paints a picture on your wall In patterns of a marble hall Blood paints a picture on your wall In patterns of a marble hall Blood paints a picture on your wall In patterns of a marble hall

Patterns 05:03
The western sky above Like a tapestry undone Another day is gone And I'm feeling sick Of not relating, dissociating What can my purpose be Valued only for producing And as the years proceed I feel just as lost So I shut things out Again and again and again So all I do is wait Survive and medicate Will I ever be More than my patterns of Forgetting Daydreaming Fixations consume me I'm tired of running From those who would love me I'm sick of these patterns I'm sick of these patterns I'm stuck with these patterns I'm stuck with these patterns I'm stuck with these patterns
