All those years I spent in confusion Never knew of anything else Heaven was a distant illusion While I was stuck in hell I was such a good little soldier Following your every command But those days are finally over ‘Cause now I understand That I don’t need this any more I’m tired of our private little war It’s you who’s driving me away Don’t you deny who is to blame today Now I see just how sweet it is to be Living free of all your drama and your sorrow I don’t know why it took so long to go But I’m finally looking forward to tomorrow Flying like a desperate arrow The time has come to make my escape The window to my freedom is narrow There’s no room for mistakes Running through the eye of the needle Anything to get out of here I know you think I’m broken and feeble But I’ve nothing to fear ‘Cause I don’t need this any more There’s too much baggage to ignore It’s you who’s driving me insane I’m throwing off your cruel chains today Now I see just how sweet it is to be Living free of all your drama and your sorrow I don’t know why it took so long to go But I’m finally looking forward to tomorrow

Ragged Town 04:15
Sticking needles in my veins To find some hidden pools of pain Thanks to you, I’m never dry Don’t you come to me and whine You’ve got your problems, I’ve got mine And I never ask you why Time is so slow when you don’t know Just when you’ll drown One day you’ll see reality Lies somewhere out beyond this ragged town Not a human, not machine Think I’m somewhere in between Devoid of feelings either way No waking up, it’s not a dream I’m fully conscious when I scream It’s all a nightmare every day Time is so slow when you don’t know Just when you’ll drown One day you’ll see reality Lies somewhere out beyond this ragged town I hate you now, I always will You’re like the ones I loved to kill But tonight you’ll be my clown Something’s wrong, something’s amiss I don’t know why I feel like this The burning scars have worn me down Time is so slow when you don’t know Just when you’ll drown One day you’ll see reality Lies somewhere out beyond this ragged town

Don’t ask where we’re going to go I said that I do not know Don’t analyze Or fantasize Just relax and enjoy the show As we walk ‘round the shattered bend Be sure that you comprehend There is no goal I have no soul On that you can depend I don’t want to see your face We’re all just a big disgrace I’ll never miss My being with Another waste of space I’m sure that you’ll never see Just what I was meant to be Another time Another crime That I’ll commit for free I’m putting up with you here next to me I’d rather fight this world alone I’ve never been too good with empathy Just broken ecstasy
4.
Don’t you know the world cannot be saved With good deeds the road to hell is paved I just want to live my life for me And wallow in my pit of apathy Hello I’m running from liberty’s end Oh no I’m running from liberty’s end And so…go Why am I always the only one Who ever seems to get anything done Guess I can’t expect you to pretend So now on me this whole charade depends Hello I’m running from liberty’s end Oh no I’m running from liberty’s end And so…go

Apocalypse and Armageddon Can’t compare to what’s on my mind Now that all my nerves are deadened Lord I swear, I will not be blind Sound the drums of war and ride Don’t ask me how, there’s no place to hide Wounds are bleeding Hope’s receding Death is feeding See you pleading why try I’m the last trigger The last trigger The last trigger The last trigger Smell of diesel on your skin That searing heat I cannot replace Frigid cruelty is my sin So feel the sleet tearing through your face Heavy price with little gain My mind is gone, lost inside my pain Limbs are severed Think you’re clever But whatever I will never cry, lie I’m the last trigger The last trigger The last trigger The last trigger Die, bye I’m the last trigger The last trigger The last trigger The last trigger Shed the skin for your society ‘Cause you know it’s a mask for the public to see And when the fire in your head hits a hundred and five Then it’s time to decide what to do to survive

Controlling all our behaviors In the disguise of a savior Who rescues us from our own demise Your wretched words, so distorted Your point of view, unsupported Infecting minds and destroying lives See I know that underneath your fancy crown Is a skull that’s full of nothing but decay So I go ‘cause I can’t take this lying down I’m a leader in the war against your way You think we’re weak and forsaken Well now you’ll learn you’re mistaken You’ll see just how much we have to give We’ll gather up all the hellions To mount our shiny rebellion And take the fight up to where you live ‘Cause I know that right below your furrowed brow Are a pair of eyes that see but still are blind So I go ‘cause I can’t take this lying down I’m a leader in the war against your kind See I know that underneath your fancy crown Is a skull that’s full of nothing but decay So I go ‘cause I can’t take this lying down I’m a leader in the war against your way

Well I can’t see But I won’t be The only one Emergency To set me free It’s all but done Climb inside the ruins of a mind that’s all but dead Feed the cannibals living within Any consolation will be swiftly put to bed ‘Cause I don’t need it any more than I would heed those words you said Why should I go We sunk so low It’s all the same A common foe Of grief and woe We curse your name Fall into the ruins of a life that’s barely there Tell me just who’s comforting your king While the choir’s singing of a fate that isn’t fair I’ll be riding high beyond the lies of those who never cared Who knows Welcome to the ruins of a paradise gone wrong I don’t know how things became like this Can’t go on dismissing all the stories and the songs That all tell the tales of what we had around here all along

Desolation 04:16
A mound of dirt and ash is all What’s left of valor Within this crater we call home Out from the darkness there will crawl A new disorder Like body parts all made of chrome And I don’t care how much you might stare now It doesn’t matter anymore, no The frozen factor breaks through skin To bone and marrow Of human fire, we’re both deprived The gun of silence lies within My broken shadow Just one less night we might survive But it’s my mission of raw ambition That keeps me hanging on to hope So we can’t give in now Won’t let them win now We can’t give in now And I don’t care how much you might stare now It doesn’t matter anymore, no ‘Cause I don’t care now

I can see you sitting in your ivory towers Built on lies and greed and lustful treachery Barren fields of glass and lakes of rust Are all that’s left of what you call your noble legacy I can feel the forces closing in on where I lie The tragedies you’re making me relive But this time I won’t run off and hide I’ll sacrifice to stand and fight you even if it’s more than I can give I would leave but I’ve got nowhere else to be Inside this frozen desert wasteland of the soul Is it me or are we all just choking on The bitter ashes that have made us so unwhole There are battles that you choose to lose Because they simply aren’t worth the time it takes to win But this isn’t one of those so saddle up and follow me Into the night where we will not ever give in I will never be What you made of me I refuse to forget and forgive I will never be What you want to see I’ll defy you even though it’s more than I can give Now there’s chaos and there’s rampant bloodshed everywhere Just like a Kung Fu Theater Friday night ‘Cause this time you know I won’t be scared I’ll prove to you that everything you said was wrong and I was always right I will never be What you made of me I refuse to forget and let live I will never be What you want to see I’ll defy you even though it’s more than I can give

Judges and jurors Betrayal and lies Agents of murder In clever disguise When this all started I fled and I ran Now I must finish What they all began I understand Your master plan I understand Rivers of venom And plains made of ice I’ll plow through them all now And never think twice Oceans and deserts Across them I’ll roam Nothing can stop me When I’m all alone I’m going home To claim your throne I’m going home Whoever guessed that I’d ever return Yes, when I left I had So much to learn But now I am here and It’s time to decide Live with your conscience Or die with your pride I am alive I have arrived I’m still alive You won’t survive
11.
Now this time you’ve gone too far It doesn’t matter where you are I’ll be coming after you You won’t even have a clue That your life is all but through, it’s true ‘Cause I am here to end your story Drown your fear in death and glory Close your eyes this might get gory Tonight My revenge won’t set me free But it sure as hell will make you see That you can’t do as you please Bringing others to their knees I’m the cure and you’re the pestilent disease ‘Cause I am here to end your story Drown your fear in death and glory Close your eyes this might get gory Tonight
12.
There’s nothing left to say I don’t know why it has to be this way There’s nowhere left to go I didn’t think that time would fly so slow I hate to say the answer’s still unknown Why some of us were meant to be alone I’m giving up, it’s true Sometimes that’s all I ever want to do I know it isn’t fair I wish I could forget I even cared The joys of company are overblown Cause some of us were meant to be alone I know that I am better on my own Cause some of us were meant to be alone
