You Don't Know My Name
04:10
|

|
You, you get me down
You push round and around
Then you break me on the ground
Hey, I’m dead afraid
You can’t wait til the end
and you bring me in there dead
Isn’t it a pity?
But I don’t mind
Isn’t it a pity, yeah?
You don’t know my name
You think it’s all a game
The people take what they’ve been given
Fate, it’s too late
It’s too late to wait for the things that break your day
Time, is it on your side?
It’s so long til you get to the break that brings the light

In The Night
03:47
|
|||
|
This isn’t how I planned to spend my time today
I think I’d better run and hide
I’m wresting with the voices spinning in my head
This isn’t what I want to find
[Chorus]
Save you from the demons in the night
Laughing as you run for cover
Something isn’t right
I’ve been a victim of the voices from the past
It’s left me with another way
It won’t destroy you but it melts you all the same
I’ve gotta fight another day

Higher Than The Sun
04:00
|
|||
|
You don’t wanna be the last one that can be saved
Push through the bodies of the crowd that you never made
Pulling all the roots you made from the shadows of shame
I can’t see you through the limelight that you have faked
You should be higher than the sun
You shouldn’t be the only one
Icarus fate can be undone
Ending the fable story
You should be higher than the sun
You shouldn’t be the only one
Roots in the ground; have you begun?
Nimrod, complete your story.
You’ve got nothing left to give now you have been raped
Selling what you haven’t got so they are allayed
You’re not gonna be the last one that can be made
Patriarchy keeps you down til you accept fate

Faceless
03:16
|
|||
|
I’m getting up, you’re getting out
Do what you want through all the doubt
You haven’t got what you can be
Take all you want you get from me
You’re in the deep & can’t get out
You fight, you struggle, scream & shout
The end is never far to see
You cannot get it all from me
Faceless
You could be the talk of the town
Helpless
You could be the only one who
Makes it
They can’t see what you have now they’re
Faceless
They wanna back you down to get around

Cult of Personality
03:45
|
|||
|
You think you’ve got it, you’re walkin’ tall
Just another little brick in the wall
Snake smile liability
Making moves on society
Another line another tragedy
Another fallen personality
They wanna take it, take all
Keep keep pushing until it falls
[Bridge]
Not giving out much sympathy
Don’t save your pity up for me
[Chorus]
I’m not giving up my cult
Of personality
Take an image, but not the whole
It’s a test and I fulfil it all
Another brush for reality
Paint what you like, give it to me
Another line another tragedy
Another fallen personality
They wanna take it, take all
Keep keep pushing until it falls

Breaking Out
03:46
|
|||
|
You’ve been down lately
And its all that you can do to keep yourself from giving up
You’re painted
But there’s nothing you can do or say that makes the grade or the cut
It’s all you ever want
You never wait up
It’s all you live for
You’re right there on the cusp
You’ve seen it all before
You’ve seen it all before
This is the opportunity
Breaking breaking out
You feel so frustrated
But there is nothing you can do or say that makes a bit of difference oh no
Underrated
There’s nobody to see what you have done so why should you give a fuck?
It’s all you ever want
You never wait up
It’s all you live for
You’re right there on the cusp

Black Flame
03:52
|
|||
|
Look at my hands
I’ve got nothing left
And all of my friends
Are lying dead
What have I done?
What have I gone and started?
I don’t wanna be one
But I can’t defend this thing
This searing in my heart
It’s burning a black flame
I’ve known if from the start
You’re bringing the end game
Black flame
Black flame
Look what you’ve done
Taken everything
You think that you’ve won
But the pain is increasing
Well what have you got?
You’re hoarding everything
The billions want more
Sick psychotic dreaming
This searing in my heart
It’s burning a black flame
I’ve known if from the start
You’re bringing the end game
Black flame
This searing in my heart
It’s burning a black flame
I’ve known if from the start
You’re bringing the end game
And so, the broken pieces
Desecrate your name
This dark and twisted shadow
Consecrates your shame
Black flame
Black flame

Automatic
04:10
|
|||
|
Entertainment full of lies
Numbing all the darkness
Where you get your mental vice
Silencing the question
Where do you hide your fire fight?
Underneath the surface
How can you sleep so safe at night?
Silencing the voices
This is the contest
You are so heartless
You re not a princess
This is how it’s automatic
This is the contest
You’re not a princess
You are so heartless
This is how it’s automatic
(Reprise)
Silence the question
Silence the voices
Blind to the choices
Ignorance is silence
Eat the spoon that feeds your mind
Ignorance is silence
Acquiesce the social slime
Blindness is a fortress
You really think that you’re alright
Even in the darkness
Why do you hide from all the light?
Even under water

Ain't Gonna Dance
03:15
|
|||
|
Gaslight creeper
Fear instilling reaper
Cut you down to keep the control
In your home and he’s keeping you alone
You never speak when he doesn’t know
Sinking deeper
Doubt what you remember
Depending on the cage makes you whole
Self esteem isn’t something you can clean
You can never break through what you know
Who you gonna tell about it right now?
[Chorus]
I don’t think that I wanna
Know your name
I don’t care what you say
I ain’t gonna dance with ya
Ain’t gonna dance with ya

Broken Crown
03:50
|
|||
|
This is the last time you will be seen
On the cover of a magazine
You broke the rules and you tried to flee
Hiding from your vanity
Hand in the lens that you used to love
Watching magic eyes above
Underhanded faking everything
Psycho personality
Headlines not what they all used to be
Goodbye glitterati
You break the rules but you cannot see
Blind to society
Hand in the lens that you used to love
Watching magic eyes above
Underhanded faking everything
Psycho sick celebrity
[Chorus]
You don’t know why you’ve been
Taken down, Taken down
The only thing about you is a broken crown, broken crown
Taken down, the only thing about you is your broken crown
Left to drown
No one cares about that; you are over now
