Remedies 03:59
Take one last look my friends This is the last time I'll fit in Depart this sinking ship I'll shed imperfect skin And accept the fact that you are all so misdirected And we're so easily rejected from your cult Think of your origins When was the last time you gave in To any truthful sins Deceitful words enlist to all associated Stand by every judgement And realize that it was you all along Emotional extremity Believe just what you want to believe I'll hold on to this remedy for enemies Fall with your reasons Give up, recognize that this fabrication is set to fall Don't live in treason Words strike to ignite this fateful detachment of us all So easily rejected from your cult Emotional extremity Believe just what you want to believe I'll hold on to this remedy for enemies Fall with your reasons Give up, recognize that this fabrication is set to fall Don't live in treason Words strike to ignite this fateful detachment of us all

Mannequins 03:30
The perfect prototype A manufactured clone with painted eyes A shining vanity conceals a mystery from those who carry honesty Don't fight for the truth it's not worth the battle when all of the world would kill for the spotlight Don't reach for the throne Project a perfect tone until it shakes your bones The sound is safe If they could see our hearts The flaws would be disposed I won't hold my breath Bones and strings forcing all the actions for reactions Come all weak, listen to the melodies of broken faith We can barely breath in this air In our hearts we could only feel closer Only in our dreams They can clearly see Bones and strings forcing all the actions for reactions Come all weak, listen to the melodies of broken faith

Push away from the docks and set sail Let the waves wash away any trails We will break all the ties to take life by the reigns and forget all the names A release from the eyes that can only see failure We're free This is a promise everlasting Escape to a permanent retreat Imperfect souls are worth unmasking Becoming one into the sea See the shore through the rays of the sun No regrets for the things that we've done From mistakes we can see that there's always a love in the outcome of pain A defeat to redeem ourselves back from the storm 'cause We're free We are a promise everlasting This is a permanent retreat Steer towards the light Embrace it's casting Becoming one into the sea Ascendancy Never dismiss our loyalty Put trust in me and I will trust you Let the winds take control and hold on to me Put trust in me Take a breath to unfurl the best harmony for all to see Let the winds take control and hold on to me Put trust in me Take a breath to unfurl the best harmony for all to see Live through this stormy weather and strive for something better Ascendancy Never dismiss our loyalty Put trust in me and I will trust you

Elitist 02:54
In this profession appearance shows disdain Instability with nothing to gain We all know better than to question the fame We all envision the high horse being put to shame Slit your own wrists One more reason to forget If we're so helpless then why do we seem so confident an safe Are we pathetic? Is there no gratitude? An empty promise for the life we choose Unsystematic Following protocol Take your pick from the list of flaws You'll never get it from whats expected Secured in leadership Slit your own wrists One more reason to forget If we're so Helpless then why do we seem so confident an safe Face mistakes Make way for the underdog Pull, bend breaking your own protocol

White Walls 04:35
Wings by your sides It's taken me all this time to see them breaking Weak from disgust It's taken you all this time to feel no pain Fight for relief Die to believe I'll push the darkness And bind with you And take our last breath To mold with you Off the wall, on the floor Take me down and place the images face down Try to hate, bend and break Tear me down until there's nothing but dead space Bleed from your eyes A moment I could not bare to be a witness Trust is a thing I thought I could grasp, but now I know the difference One touch to feel One voice to heal I'll push the darkness And bind with you And take our last breath To mold with you Off the wall, on the floor Take me down and place the images face down Try to hate, bend and break Tear me down until there's nothing but dead space You won't see my face Try to hate Stimulate your rage Try to hate I'll push the darkness And bind with you And take our last breath To mold with you Off the wall, on the floor Take me down and place the images face down Try to hate, bend and break Tear me down until there's nothing but dead space And you won't have to see my face

Another tortured face From resentment It's always been this way Bold reactions Don't blame me Because I've always known it No retreat From your world infected Less stabbing words More of actively listening A deafening tone To hear you erupt and explode Make a sound Until it drowns A knife in sand Save your face Repudiate And rinse your hands It's so like you to take Every action To show no empathy So apathetic Don't believe Your own misconceptions No retreat From your world infected Less stabbing words More of actively listening A deafening tone To hear you erupt and explode Make a sound Until it drowns A knife in sand Save your face Repudiate And rinse your hands Go back home You relapse while I resist Go back home Less stabbing words More of actively listening A deafening tone To feel you erupt and explode Make a sound Until it drowns A knife in sand Save your face Repudiate And rinse your hands Let this calling break the crowd If I could remember where your light shined from I'd bust it out
