Paid Back in Spades

I look down, down from above
At all these things that I thought that I loved
But when I see it there looking so small
I realized it never, never mattered at all.
I rip it away
I rip it away
Now lightning shoots out of my hands
And in my wake I leave a battered land
And then I see you there screaming out
I'll make you feel exactly how I felt.
I rip it away
I rip it away
I rip it away
I rip it away
Yeah you want to be a big strong man
And walk over everyone make them feel as small as you can
How do you like it when the world gets turned around?
Yeah you don't like it do you?
No you don't
Tell me
I rip it away
I rip it away
I rip it away
I rip it, I rip it away

The Hounds
03:56
|
|||
Up at first light
Running for my life
Fog is rising as I'm racing through these hills
Here come the hounds
I hear them growl
Feel their hot breath as they are closing in
Sound the guns
Fire Comes
But you just missed me
You just missed me
I slipped away
To a new fate
My eyes adjusting to the darkness of this den
The scent of death
The crunch of bone
Screams caught in my throat as I turn to run
Sound the guns
Fire Comes
But you just missed me
You just missed me
Sound the guns
Fire Comes
But you just missed me
You just missed me
One step further from them
Brings me closer to you
You're just a shape in the dark and I don't want to see the truth
You're just a shape in the dark
You're just a shape in the dark
You're just a shape in the dark
You're just a shape in the dark
Sound the guns
Fire Comes
But you just missed me
You just missed me
Sound the guns
Fire Comes
But you just missed me
You just missed me

Keep on Fighting

Pack it up
Lighter
You're gonna walk away with me
Pack it up
Lighter
You're gonna walk away with me
And we'll go, and we'll go
Quit starring in this imaginary show
Keep on Fighting
But it just gets harder
The mountains they go up
But I can't get stuck in this town
Keep on Fighting
But it just gets harder
The mountains they go up
But I can't get stuck in this town
The trees they whisper
But you miss what they're telling
You're too busy stuck in your own little world
Oh the trees they whisper
But you miss what they're telling
You're too busy stuck in your own little world
Keep on Fighting
But it just gets harder
The mountains they go up
But I can't get stuck in this town
Keep on Fighting
But it just gets harder
The mountains they go up
But I can't get stuck in this town
Keep on Fighting
But it just gets harder
The mountains they go up
But I can't get stuck in this town
Keep on Fighting
But it just gets harder
You keep on
You keep on
You keep on

O Discordia
04:05
|
|||
I'm stuck climbing up the stairs
That go to eternity
My body wants to stop
But my mind keeps racing to the top
But my mind keeps racing to the top
O Discordia you're underneath my skin
O Discordia you're underneath my skin
The arrows pierce my chest
With their poison tips
I won't die from the wounds
But the side effects left inside me
But the side effects left inside me
O Discordia you're underneath my skin
O Discordia you're underneath my skin
O Discordia you're underneath my skin
O Discordia Discordia Discordia
O Discordia you're underneath my skin
O Discordia you're underneath my skin
O Discordia you're underneath my skin
O Discordia Discordia Discordia

Left with Nothing
05:03
|
|||
I'm walking over sands of red
I skate through the lakes of time
I wander to the end
It just starts over again
I don't know where to land
Cause I'm hung up
And floating
But the lights are down
And I'm left with nothing
The walls begin to shake
As my mind finally breaks
Step out under a different sun
Look through eyes that aren't my own
I don't know how to stand
Cause I'm hung up
And floating
But the lights are down
And I'm left with nothing
Cause I'm hung up
And floating
But the lights are down
And I'm left, I'm left with nothing
Mistakes were made in part
They take me back to the start
Maybe this time will be the one
In my hand I hold the horn
Please let me find the end
Cause I'm hung up
And floating
But the lights are down
And I'm left with nothing
Cause I'm hung up
And floating
But the lights are down
And I'm left, I'm left with nothing
I'm left, I'm left with nothing
I'm left, I'm left with nothing

Thistle
04:09
|
|||
Wind Blows and it whistles
They go messing with the trees
In my mind there are thistles
Just waiting to be plucked by me
And the weeds they grow
And the weeds they grow
Days close, darks coming
The sun is setting in
My minds still running
The thistles are closing in
And the weeds they grow
Oh the weeds they grow
Yeah, the weeds they grow
They keep growing in me
Growing in me
Breaths short, nights long
The weight is heavy on me
If I go under
The thistles become one with me
And the weeds they grow
Oh the weeds they grow
Yeah, the weeds they grow
They keep growing in me
Growing in me
They keep growing in me
Growing in me

Control
03:17
|
|||
I travel to the city
There's people, places I'll never know
The looks on all of their faces
They're stuck and scared with no where to go
But I'll teach you
I'll teach you
To lose control
There's ghosts of people among us
Their souls are choked by the day to do
I walk around unencumbered
Each step is mine to take
But I'll teach you
I'll teach you
I'll teach you
Yeah I'll teach you
To lose control

Bringing Me Down
06:05
|
|||
Whitewash your walls
And do the same with your life
You can't see the point in looking through someone else's eyes
You just misspoke
Meant it as a joke
You skipped that last step but there's no net to catch you now
And you keep bringing me down
And you keep bringing me down
And you keep bringing me down, down
And you keep bringing me down
Polish what you broke
Paint it with fools gold
To cover up the cracks you didn't mention when it sold
You're in too deep
To even see
The floor as it washes out from underneath your feet
And you keep bringing me down
And you keep bringing me down
And you keep bringing me down, down
And you keep bringing me down
It's a tragic scene
I can't look away
You've lost everything its all gone up in flames
Is it too late
Who can know
Just say your prayers and kiss your mother as you go
And you keep bringing me down
And you keep bringing me down
And you keep bringing me down, down
And you keep bringing me down
And you keep bringing me down
And you keep bringing me down, down
And you keep bringing me down
You're bringing me down
You're bringing me down
And you keep bringing me down
And you keep bringing me down
And you keep bringing me down, down
And you keep bringing me down
And you keep bringing me down
And you keep bringing me down, down
And you keep bringing me down

The Fires Rise
03:42
|
|||
The flames with their fickle dance
It moves you to a trance
The heat it pulls you in
But don't get too close or you will get burned
The smoke it moves
It embraces you
You can't escape the fumes
But don't get too close or you will get burned
Now the fires rise
And I burn
I live on the edge
Where I can see
The pretty lights and people
Living comfortable in the city
Within your walls
makes me want to climb
I feel lost in here
And I need to get outside
Now the fires rise
And I
And I
And I burn
Come close to me
And we'll dance in our sleep
As the fires rise
And we'll burn inside
Come close to me
And we'll dance in our sleep
As the fires rise
Come close to me
And we'll dance in our sleep
As the fires rise
As the fires rise

I met a man one day he walked along the road
He smiled at me and said his story's never told
I say I'll stay a while and listen to him talk
And he just laughs and on, and on, and on we walked
Now it's buzzing in my head
It's buzzing in my hands
It's buzzing in my head
It's buzzing in my hands
We walked the road a ways and I don't speak a word
His story's sad and it drills into my soul
I turn to look but he is not there anymore
And I can't seem to leave the path we walked before
Now it's buzzing in my head
It's buzzing in my hands
It's buzzing in my head
It's buzzing in my hands
Now it's buzzing in my head
It's buzzing in my hands
It's buzzing in my head
It's buzzing in my hands
It's buzzing in my head
It's buzzing in my hands
I'm buzzing out
I'm buzzing out
I'm buzzing out
