Nascita/Vita/Morte
04:15

I came into this world looking for suspects
To hear what I had to say
Innocence can go so far
Think you're close, but you're so far away
Chorus: I'm born into this world
I'm facing traverse
They'll try to cut me down
No I can't wait to die
x2
Well I called and I called but no response
No answer in the dark
I've been looking for justice in this town, but no
No justice here to be found
Chorus
So tired of slaving from day to day
How would you feel if your god abandoned you and me
I can't live with myself in this crisis we're in
But I don't fear death, I only accept it
Chorus

The Illuminators
06:42
|
|||
There are those who seek fortune
There are those who wander the earth
searching for treasure
A never ending search
There are those encased in darkness
There are those with blinded eyes
Searching on their hands and feet now
They're feeling their demise
PreChorus: Well I say, let them see
The illuminators will set them free
Chorus: Stuck in a world
with a tragedy like this
A concrete wall between
The people and their bliss
The Illuminators
Will set them free
The Illuminators
Will set them free
Trying harder each time
We're digging in the soil
How do we find diamonds
In this wasteland so soiled
These walls are paper thin
And I can hear every word
Your death will surely come
Struck by your own sword
PreChorus
Chorus
In time they'll come, we'll learn
That we have been doing it wrong
In time, they'll go, we're lost
We must always remember their call
Chorus 2x

Failure to compromise
Gets you nowhere in life my dear
So get back to your work
and stop talking off my ear
Shortcuts are always fun
'til they leave us stranded and dead
You listen to your own thoughts
and not a damn word we said
So get back to work now
Chorus: I told you once
I told you twice
You got to play nice
I told you once
I told you twice
Doin' what you do never got you far in life
2x
You've tried it before
Your oh so notorious schemes
What was that statement
oh how bitchy it seems
Cryin' from time to time
Begging for our attention
But don't think we look past
your ambitious pretension
So Get back to work now
Chorus

She Likes to Dance
05:25

Her physique makes me weak
Impressively tall
But only 5' 3"
But those high heels are making you appear like you just belong
But those high heels are making you appear like you just belong
She's so sweet on my lips
When she moves graceful hips
But the devil resides in those eyes with the lies she told me
But the devil is fine just if i could let her hold me
Chorus: She's everything I've wanted
and everything I've hated all my life
But I'll tell you my friend
I'm giving in tonight
She likes to dance 4x
She took me to a night club, and I'm hypnotized
She knew that I was hungry so she fed my eyes
As the night got longer, I saved her life
She dragged me under cover and thanked me twice
She wrote a little letter saying goodbye
Now I'll never feed those little hungry eyes
But the devil resides in those eyes with the lies she told me
But the devil is fine just if i could let her hold me
Chorus
She likes to Dance 4x
She likes to Dance 4x
But not anymore..

Make yourself cry
Cuz I won't do it for you
You said you'd die
but I can't prove it to you
I know you lie
But I can't hear it, i can't hear it no
Cuz I'm a trapped fool in a story, a story that's not my own
These eys see beautiful colors
trusting all the lights
Don't lead me into picture
Don't lead me into the night
I know you're there
But I can't feel you, I can't feel you no
Cuz I'm a trapped fool in a story, a story that's not my own

The Winter Pt. 1
04:27
|
|||
You hate me for the me that you imagined in your head
And the ones who stand with you say I’d be better off dead
But there’s nowhere else to roam If my feet aren’t on these grounds
Because the sky isn’t opening up for me Cuz I’m not going now
Stranger things have happened than simple abductions
Remember that pathetic excuse of an introduction
I’ve seen her eyes Oh how they shine
But your eyes are evil SO DON’T LOOK INTO MINE
A differing opinion is not an illness, stop acting like it is
Life’s too short to blame the weak, it’s not the apocalypse
You’ve got it all figured out, or at least that's what you say
But your mind is filled with illusions, illusions that you've made
It's scary to think that you're all alone in this desolate cold
Scary to think you're the only one in this abandoned hole
The snow is falling, the creatures are crawling, hunting for your heart
Their eyes are evil, and this is war...

The Winter Pt. 2
05:32
|

Blind lead the blind
see the sunrise
but it doesn't rise right
Let the light melt the mold
Blind lead the blind
see the sunrise
but it doesn't rise right
Part from the stories we're sold
Chorus: We can't follow
Never take
The path you left behind
This life (is) Nothing (when you're)
Drowning
Underneath your world
Lines, fall in line
Follow the hidden evil
Hatred will take its toll
Lines, fallen line
Shadows lend destruction
Let go, the hatred we hold
Chorus
Everything stops but life repeats, life repeats
Close those eyes and accept defeat, accept defeat

The Winter Pt. 3
05:05
|

Trading wicked past times
To heal the loss of those lives
Saving life from those lines
Hides the light from those blind
Quiet are the humble
Who survived the struggle
Oh, how the blood will last
Finally the Winter's passed
