AS THE WORLD BURNS

AS THE WORLD BURNS (free) 02:00
You breathe it in at your own discretion We breathe it in just because you exhale It's not just yourself that you're killing Lost in selfishness. You burn us all You say it's your choice because it's your body Well what about my choice? Isn't this my body? This toxic filth floods the Earth You strangle us with no concern Our eyes are burning and our lungs collapse As we all choke in this cloud of smoke Your body rots as you slowly decay There's easier ways to kill yourself Your suicide is killing us all As the world turns, it continues to burn You light the fire that consumes us all You take whats left and you burn it down Humanity vanishes before our eyes As the world turns, it continues to burn Accelerate the end of our lives You take whats left and you burn it down

THE SEPARATION (free) 02:00
I tried to bite my tongue I tried to keep it in But there's no turning back The separation begins This life I lead has left me drowning Can't relate to the people around me Isolate myself more everyday I can't continue to live this way The separation only grows stronger It's becoming uncertain how much longer I can keep these thoughts under control Or will I unleash my hatred on this world? Can I keep these thoughts under control? Or will I unleash my hatred on this world? The separation Eye to eye, we'll never see You'll always look down on me Things will never be the same The separation grows in me
3.
SCAPEGOAT (free) 02:01
You live your life like a fucking game Not once do you accept the blame Somehow the blood is never on your hands Overlooked. I’ll never understand Look at what you’ve done. At what you destroyed No longer will I sit and watch you deceive You’ve been exposed. Can’t pass the buck Your justice is served. Time is up You can’t hide. You can’t escape the blame No scapegoat. I’ll disgrace your name Chemicals been blamed far too long This is for those you have wronged No remorse for your ignorance No exceptions for what you’ve done No tolerance for your ignorance It’s all on you. There is no scapegoat

IMPRISONED (free) 01:49
Wake up in pain. Looking for the end Awaiting my failure. Continue to descend Further into this pit of despair Search for a way out. There’s nothing there Struggle within, I battle myself The more I live, the more I hate myself Paranoia poisons my mind Peace is something I’ll never find Anxiety grows in my confidence’s absence I am to blame for this painful existence Disillusioned thoughts. Constant Pain A troubled mind is all that remains Imprisoned in my own mind Lock myself in. No means for escape Imprisoned by my own thoughts No solution. I accept my fate Prisoner
5.
MY RELEASE (free) 02:16
This is my release This means everything to me This is my escape From all the bullshit. From all the fake This is all I need This is what makes my heart beat This is where I thrive This is what keeps me alive I've been searching for substance in all these different places Surrounded myself with all these different faces All that I found is a life filled with pain This is the one thing that keeps me sane This is my release This is what makes my heart beat This is my release This means everything to me

I watched you slip. I watched you fall I watched you give up on it all You reached out. Pleaded for help I was there. All by myself Dug yourself in with your ignorance Suffer below with your arrogance I tried my best to break you free But all you've done is made a fool of me Brick by brick. You wall yourself in You're on your own. This is the end Decisions you made burn you alive A hollowed corpse. Nothing left inside You shut us out. You showed us all You don't want help. Continue to fall There's nothing left of you to save This life will lead you straight to your grave You came to me for guidance, said you needed my help But everytime I tried to help you, you just fell back to hell I keep running through my head and I still struggle to see The fucking reason why I keep this bullshit company
