forget, everything that i've fucking known left with regrets, I'm withered right down to the bone no soul, I'm standing empty and alone I've lost control, as my past starts to unfold This pain i hold and these tears I cry bring me closer to taking my own life as my past repeats, I'm forgetting how to live forgetting happiness and what love truly is. The pain subsides but I'm left sickened and alone The feeling of loneliness as a king's dethroned No hope for me as my memories start to slip heartless and broken, it's tough to hold my grip Throughout the years, the memories fade the days I've smiled, without this fucking pain No love to give, no happiness in my soul Forgotten memories of a loveless fool are told

LYRICS

The Noose

Condemned, to suffer through this life so cold. My own harsh reality unfolds. Depression consuming me, burdened with fear I stand so bleak.

As my days fade away, it all fades to black in this cold reign. Livin a life of solitude and misery.

Through all these years, I've been running from my fears. Trapped alone in my head, left myself for dead, and now I'm searching for the depths again.

Too many nights alone. My minds a prison and I can't feel at home. Darkness watch over me, as I prepare for my own defeat.

So I sit alone on this night. Noose in my hands under the burning street light. Depraved of all hope, the reapers here to ensure I choke.

Just a boy with dreams, until I took my own life from me. Imprisoned by my own soul, the emptiness fills my bones. Emptiness take me home.


Judgement

Search for your place in this world. A lone wolf, you try break from the herd. Reliant to create your own path. Defiant that you won't relive your past. Outcast you push all others away. Deceit you lead loved ones astray. Forever you run away from the truth. This world is bound to break you.

Chorus:
True weakness in your eyes I can see. Coward you can never out run me. Close your eyes and accept its the end. Justice served and these wounds wont mend.
Pray for your life as you repent your sins. You hide behind your rotation of friends. Lies and deceit you won't defeat me. As you're found guilty the truth is set free.

chorus

Blind to the world you come apart at the seams. It's time you join me in reality. Frail words youve spoke nothing but lies have been told. You're full of bullshit and I was never sold.

chorus



SANDS OF TIME

Day breaks and I feel it once again
The world is moving and my head just spins
Time moves on as I fall back in my ways
The sands of time run cold right through these veins.

This lost hope, I remain here once again
This moving clock, time is far from a friend.
A last stand, to turn my life around.
A lost man, I still wait to be found.
This pain is never ending this pain is all I know.
Left without a prayer lost with no Holy Ghost.

Now I can't remain to let this blood run cold through these veins. Lost on this path I've been lead away. A beaten man here my body lays.

Not a moment left. This is a dying breath. I've grown old and alone and there is nothing left.

The sands of time spiraling down.
Alone I have defeated my self.
Life moves on as I'm left here again.
Time has never been my friend.


THE STORM

Thunder strikes I stand alone again
The rain falls as I embrace the end
Clouds overhead the cold is near
The storm approaches only sorrow I feel.

Gasp for air the waters overhead. Drowning alone lighting strikes again.

As everyday drifts away I wonder when will this rain go away?

Can never rest, this life's a test. I wonder if I even have a soul left.
Dark clouds, cold nights. Lost in the dark when I need some light.
Blistering winds come closing in, washed away by the rain again.

As everyday drifts away I wonder when will this rain go away?

The rain. Washed me away.


KISS OF DEATH

With the kiss of death your life is taken from me. Memories fade as as I'm embraced with defeat. The years I've stood looking up to you. Erased by the pain of what I've been through. I torture myself reliving my past. To hold you again and put you in life's grasps. But the afterlife awaits, the angels sealed your fate. No longer here with me, I reach for my dying days.

I will never forget your face, your life was taken and I'm left filled with hate (x2).

I guess that's just the way things go. We grow old and lose the loved ones we know. Well I guess that's just the way things go. Your life was taken but I just can't fucking let you go.

Tested and true, my love did not die with you. Angel of death, guide our loved ones to their rest.

Kissed by the angel of death, 6 feet down forever at rest. Kissed by the angel of death, my fucking heart rips from my chest.


FADED MEMORIES

Forget everything that I've fucking known. Left with regrets I'm withered right down to the bone. No soul I'm standing empty and alone. Ive lost control as my past starts to unfold. This pain I hold and these tears I cry, bring me closer to taking my own life. As my past repeats I'm forgetting how to live, forgetting happiness and what love truly is.

The pain subsides but I'm left sickened and alone. The feeling of loneliness as a king is dethroned. No hope for me as my memories start to slip. Heartless and broken it's tough to hold my grip.

Throughout the years the memories fade. The days I smiled without this fucking pain. No love to give, no happiness in my soul. Forgotten memories of a loveless fool are told.


AMONGST WOLVES


Amongst wolves, no rules, we live life like there's nothin to prove. Nothin to lose, so we stick to ourselves. To push through this living hell.

Stray dogs they stick together. The chosen few with bonds like brothers. You reach your hand out for me I'd do the same for you. True blue through and through.

Here for each other, defend our honor real wolves bleed blue and our pack stays together
The few the true. Tried and true.
Amongst the wolves it's the life that I choose.

Enemies talk, they run their mouth, we keep ours closed and back them down. Force in numbers with strength like no other. Picked away so we got chips on our shoulders.

Let down by the rest we'll go to war to protect our necks. You reach your hand out to me I'll do the same for you True blue through and through.

To live and die never defy wolves by my side we will never break stride


9th circle

Take it all from me. I gave it up just so you could breath. Led down a path of deceit. I turn to stone as your snakes stare into me. Time turned you astray. The beauty I knew runs cold in your veins. Forever betrayed. In the 9th circle youll fuckin remain.

Steve:
Ready for death because i fuckin need the rest. You ripped my heart out of my mother fucking chest. You took it all you took my last dying breath. All alone with a wish of your slow death.

Sent from hell, my love you betrayed. And I'm sinking deeper into this mess that you've made. Left with a cold heart, and ice in my veins. Sentenced to burn, in ashes you'll remain.

SHUTDOWN

Looking back at when we were the best of friends, I always had your back and you were here to defend. A pact to stick together through thick and thin. But now that so called pact came to an end. The years went on and we went our separate ways, your ignorance pulled you in a path that led astray. And now your here begging me to help you out. but now it's my time to turn around and shut you down.


why can't you see there is no we, you broke my trust when you lied to me
Dont know you now, Don't come around, or else I'll shut you down
You didn't care, you weren't there, when I lost hope and i couldn't bare.
But now I found a path around your lies and I'll shut you down


When I needed you you were never there for me there for me, I can't believe you broke your ties that quickly, I don't know why I ever gave a shit cause then i realized your selfish mind never did

But now that you're asking me to help you out. I've realized my life has been better off without, a fake friend like you, you don't pick.... and choose the parts of my life you're in and out. So now I shut you down!

Dont know you now don't come around I'll shut you down
I needed you but you couldn't be found
I'll shut you down
Next time you beg me to help you out
I'll shut you down
So keep your mouth shut don't make a sound or I'll shut you down

BORN TO FAIL

Born to fail, it's hard to compete. Since day 1 all I've known was defeat. I try to keep my head up, avoiding the weak. but it's hard to stay up when lifes a losing streak.
I've never settled always had my hopes high, but sometimes I've gotta ask myself why? The shit I put up with, is it worth my time? It's probably not, i can't keep living this lie

Born to fail I can't come out on top
I've tried my best but I have always lost
Born to fail I cannot shake this curse
For the rest of my years my life will only get worse

Im sick and tired of living to rot, day by day in these negative thoughts. I've sacrificed everything I've known to exist in my world living so cold. I've tried to find love a million ways, i guess I'll be alone for the rest of my days. I try to tell myself that I'll be fine
But in the end I wonder why I'm alive.
SHELL OF A MAN I CANT SHAKE THIS CURSE I'VE TRIED MY BEST BUT EVERYTHING JUST GETS WORSE
NO LOVE FOR THIS WORLD FOR WHICH I AM CURSED IM DESTINED TO ROT DESTINED TO BURN
