Tonight. Tonight is ours, give me your passion. Tonight is ours, give me your heart. Tonight is ours, now and forever. Tonight is ours, we bleed tonight. Live out your dream with everything you have inside you. This world can’t hold us back forever. We bleed tonight.

II. The Prey
02:40
|
|||
|
You left us there to die. One fateful day to rot beneath the stones, our flesh and blood prevail. I won’t forget that day. Took it all as our carnage gave you life. Every day we cry from beyond for we just won’t let you go. And at the hands of fate you'll pay what’s owed. Gore will tell our story. Validate your end. You'll get what you deserve. Suffer for our glory. I won’t forget that day. All that’s left is hate. You will pay for that day you ripped us from the earth and at the hands of fate we will get what’s owed. I'll never forget.

The American Dream
03:16

Fuck the American Dream. I know it all too well, I've watched it my whole life. I've felt those callused hands and looked into those broken eyes. One more bleeding heart that will never see its time. You suffer to survive, it will bury you alive. Fuck this place, burn it down. Everything I've loved is gone. This is not my home, I've played my final song. Tear us down, free us all. Sell your soul for something meaningless. A slow death for the corporate mess, and we call this happiness. What are we left with in the end? Defeat. A lifetime of obedience kicking in your teeth. Fuck this place, burn it down. Everything I've loved is gone. This is not my home, I've played my final song. Tear us down, free us all. We were sold a promise of a better tomorrow, fuck the American Dream. We were told that our choices were our own, fuck the American Dream. Promised the opportunity of a lifetime, fuck the American Dream. Deceived we could be all we can be. Fuck the American Dream.

Feeding Frenzy
03:53
|
|||
|
This fallacy hand fed the worst. Lies destroyed. Time gave nothing in return. I lost, we lost freedom for us. The wreckage won. Betrayed by you. Our trust. Our world forever gone. Force feed me all your lies, but it won’t work this time. No not this time. Your forgiveness it means nothing to me. My judgment day will cut you free. This sincerity force fed my pride. Foresight with open eyes. A champions’ just arrived. I lost, we lost freedom for us the wreckage won. Betrayed by you. Our trust. Our world forever gone. Every word you've said you lied, but it won’t work this time. No not this time. Your forgiveness it means nothing to me. My judgment day will cut you free. My purity, I hate what you made out of me. Forgiveness means nothing to me, nothing to me, nothing. Force fed me all your lies, everything you said you’ve lied, it’s time to say goodbye ‘cause it won’t work this time.

I. The Hunter
02:18
|
|||
|
I am a monster inside a man, the outer shell is my better half. Methods of madness have no end when you hunt the dead. An urge, strong urge I can’t resist and they will only set me free to run again. I am a wolf, a killer, alone I stand. All you see is my mask of sanity, a true mystery. The wolf will strike again. My dreams will prey on you. I promise this will set you free. Close your eyes wait for it. The warm crimson freedom will wash you clean. Your body will rot beneath the concrete. I am a wolf, a killer, alone I stand. All you see is my mask of sanity, a true mystery. The wolf will strike again.

Famous Last Words
01:45
|
|||
|
This army of inspiration, we came for our revenge. We'll raise the flag of discontent, we know who we are and were we stand. I know words can’t change the world but they can have an impact on life. Through some words that someone else wrote I found hope, and hope is all we have. Why sing another empty anthem? When you know this world needs direction. Hope is all we have. The hollow words you say, we both know they mean nothing. We know that your heart is hollow. We know that your words are shallow, but those words are all we have.

A Long Walk Home
03:16
|
|||
|
From day one you were my everything. You made me understand that love and loss go hand in hand. Instilled in me a sense of loyalty, a trust that could never be undone. Redemption is what I seek. Redemption, guilt gets the best of me. There's no better time than now to say I'm sorry. I should have never walked away, now my heart bleeds one more tortured song that I sing until my dying day. Redemption is what I seek. Redemption, guilt gets the best of me. I'm not the only one who can change the hate you took to your grave. I'm not the only one to blame for the pain you took to your grave. Redemption is what I seek. Redemption. Guilt gets the best of me.

Lock the door a killer is loose, head count is three. A terrifying reality that won’t end. It’s the shock of the century. Blueprint of hate. Blueprint of death. Evidence will soon unfold. State side road A1A. Searching. Another trail left cold. Searching. Body still not found. Searching. Discovery too unreal. News is in, only bones remain. Horror. One after another. Horror. The gruesome three are found. Horror. Decaying bodies lay. Report is in, the wolf has struck again. This is the work of a madman, the true face of evil. This is the work of a madman, the true face of death. Your time is up. Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide. The noose is set for your demise. We must. Convict at any cost. We must. Lay them to rest. We must. Grant the request. The end will justify the means. Terror. A mother cries out. Terror. A turn for the worse. Terror. A nation shocked by fear. You turned him loose to kill again. This is the work of a madman, the true face of evil. This is the work of a madman, the true face of death.

Discovery Of Jones

Take what you think you see. Is it real? Remove the bottomless intrigue. Does it feel? Embrace your sacrifice. Dead men die tonight. And out here no one can hear your screams. Backed into a corner, fear beating down your face. A firestorm awaits around the corner. These bullets are your saving grace. It will show what it believes. Does it breathe? Host a new meaning of life, set you free. Embrace your sacrifice. Dead men die tonight. And out here no one can hear your screams. Inject me with the will to live. I am the one left in ruin. This is our dying attempt. Embrace your sacrifice. Dead men die tonight. And out here no one can hear your screams. Inject me with the will to live. I am the one left in ruin. This is our dying attempt.

Standing On Paper Stilts
02:32
|

|
Endless days, I’ve got to find a way. Who am I? I die a little more each day. Pull out this affliction with my own two hands, I need to be a better man. Can’t you see through me? All I have is me but I don't know who I am. Spent life holding on, no chance of hope, no thought of bond. I don't know who I am. I don't know who I am. Why did it all go wrong? Endless day, got to find a way. Who am I? I die a little more each day. At 13 kept you at afar. Just wanted life to leave my heart. Shot up what all went wrong, fuck it I’m not that strong. Who are you to tell me how to live my life? I've given you all that I have and there’s no turning back, and there’s no turning back now. It’s time to fight. Make a choice and stand. What I've done with my life determines these endless days.

I need to feel alive tonight, sing your heart out. We are not damned in this. Take back the night. I will defy you. Take back what’s mine. I will defy you. What we defy now will shape our lives forever. With liberty we strengthen our own destiny. We must take back the night. Let’s make this legendary. We must take back our lives. Let’s live in all its glory. Loyal to our insight, we refuse to let this die, allegiance is our victor. Dedicated to the fight, with virtue we do what’s right. This is our declaration. Desperate for a life I can believe in. We are not damned in this life. Take back the night. I will defy you. Take back what’s mine. We must take back the night. Let’s make this legendary. We must take back our lives. Let’s live in all its glory.

The Slaughter Begins
03:38
|

|
Now I see I never knew closed eyes could kill me. Now I know and I see you for who you are. I’ve spent too much of my life watching you hide inside. Hoping you'd pull it off but you’re far from anything real. She sang let the slaughter begin. Her tears fell to the floor. What a beautiful sight it is as she lays down to die again, to die again. Once and for all I want someone to own what’s mine. Look to the future with no more lies. I'm writing you off for the final time. This disappointing pleasure was all mine. This will be the last time I try. Now I close my eyes. She sang let the slaughter begin. Her tears fell to the floor. What a beautiful sight it is as she lays down to die again, to die again. As she lays down to die again.
