Hard Lines
04:12
|
|||
Open lines, can't afford the payout
Gone but not forgotten
Drift away and even through the sellout
Didn't wanna watch them
At all costs the man becomes a legend
Finding ways to stay clean
Close the door and find your way to heaven
On the way you lost the dream
When it's all been said
Can't get ahead
Don't be afraid, afraid
Hard lines and you've had enough
Still waiting to call your bluff
Hard lines and it's all the same
Just step up and take the blame
All and all we give before we take it
Really ain't a raw deal
Only bad if no one ever commits
There's just a look that's left to steal

Fallen Believers
04:36
|
|||
Head down
Last round
All solutions the same
Fallen
Believers
No one left in the game
Old world
Confusion
Sands of time running low
Caustic
Religion
Burns away too slow
Keep them guessing
Taught the lesson
Locked away behind the door
Fought the fever
A true believer
Still the same as before
I gave up the one that was really for you
Tried being the one that was really for you
Lost cause
Short straws
Clean hands, washed away
Open
Ended
Only living today
Head down
Last Round
Some will win, some will lose
Fallen
Believers
They were able to choose

Thought It Out
03:17
|
|||
Black balled
Burning all the bridges to heaven
Slack Jawed
Running outta issues to sell
I don't want it
I don't need it
I don't see it
Thought it out and maybe I do
Couldn't do it
Apologize for telling the truth
Outmanned
Manifesting darkness in eden
Too planned
Wearing out your welcome too soon
I'm not the one
who went home too early
I'm not the one
who stayed out all night
I don't want it
I don't need it
I don't see it
Thought it out and maybe I do
Couldn't do it
Apologize for telling the truth
Outta time
Picking up the pieces of mercy
Going blind
After all the visions are gone
I'm not the one
who went home too early
I'm not the one
who went home at all

Followed By A Fall
03:53
|
|||
Full on the work is done
A pentecost for the prodigal son
Don't you believe it isn't over
We climbed the mountain
To seek the truth
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
Tomorrow's promise
Eye for a tooth
Forced the feeble to be trained
And when the verity was rotten to the core
The choices laid before all
To take their charity was better that before
Pride followed by a fall
Time was we cleared the fog
Chances are if you're dragging the dog
Ain't gonna be much of a hunter
Onward and upward
We travel on
Only believing what we're seeing
There's just one question
Before it's done
Is life or death the symbol of being

Kick Back
03:40
|
|||
Can't stop the whining one who's bleeding
Last up, the final curtain call
Look out for any sign of leading
I've said it all before
You've heard it all
No lock on any door
Looked over anyone who took the fall
Kick Back, begun
Kick Back, undone
Same old story
Kick Back, behind
Kick Back, unkind
All that Faded Glory
Don't walk
Don't ease the pain of strangers
Beneath there is an alibi
Watch out
There's a storm a'coming
Watch out
When the blood starts running
Watch out
It was all because of you

So long, consider me committed
Stepped out of the rat race
Not wrong, wouldn't have admitted
Not really a bad place
Stay strong, my weakness is forgiven
Still new to the whole scene
Long gone, didn't think I'd give in
Real easy to come clean
All signs pointed down the same road
The last step is the hardest
Even though it was shy of a load
You still held it in contest
It seems all has been lost
Butcher, Faker, Policy Maker
Once all the rivers are crossed
Butcher, Faker, Policy Maker
About time, taking what is needed
Won't end the confusion
In line, hating how they're treated
A simple illusion
All wrong, take it to the limit
Just needed a game plan
So long, consider me committed
Not really a big fan
All signs pointed down the same road
The first step is the hardest
Just waiting for it to explode
So you can all protest

End of Story
04:16
|
|||
There was a man who saw the reason
There was a man who changed it all
There was a man they charged with treason
There was a man who took the fall
We knew a man who had the power
Made us all see eye to eye
He took us to the final hour
and never asked the reason why
Have to stand up for something
Have to live for today
There's only one thing left to say
All looking for something
All needing the cure
Time passes on empty feelings and it
Ain't stopping for sure
You were the man who saw the reason
You were the man who changed it all
You were the man they charged with treason
You were the one who took the fall
We always knew who had the power
We never saw eye to eye
Sitting in the ivory tower
He won and never had to try

Common Enemy
04:11
|
|||
Edged out
Take your best shot
It's last time you'll be seen
Throughout
Found your weak spot
Regression toward the mean
Wrong one
Utility routine
We all can get along
With a common enemy
Head strong
Born into the scene
We all can get along
With a common enemy
Passed by
Made to measure
Never take the blame
Full on
Take your best shot
Nothing stays the same
Wrong one
Utility routine
We all can get along
With a common enemy
Head strong
Born into the scene
We all can get along
With a common enemy
Can't carry all the weight
Of all decisions made
Defend your alibi
Until you made the grade

Sleeping With Angels
04:15
|
|||
You life was worth living
but only so long
You gave up forgiving
and singing the song
All of the lies
And all of the time
Giving up easy
Was your only crime
Looking back now
And trying to sing
Sleeping with angels
Is the natural thing
Look back on nothing
Try to make sense
Destiny's blessing
Went over the fence
All the world's problems
You knew all along
You gave up forgiving
And singing the song
I tried to call your bluff
You knew you had enough

In Their Own Right
03:25
|
|||
Insisting on resisting
Won't put the fires out
The hands of time persisting
Causing a thrash about
Victims of the circumstance
Seeing black and white
Martyrs or just arrogance
In their own right
In their own right
We got the place surrounded
Ain't gonna go too far
There'll be no thought propounded
The carnival bizarre
Falling off the edge of time
Army for a fight
Living was their only crime
In their own right
In their own right
