1.
All I ever had was this “promise of tomorrow” / Give me another empty hour, I’ll give you a reason to let it go / Now all I can do is retrace these fucking memories / As I choke to death on my own regret / These memories are poison / And it’s the noose that I'm hanging from / Time shows its face, and I turn my back / These memories are poison / I know I lie to myself when I say I've never been here / The truth is I've lived here all my life / I can’t find comfort in escape / When every exit leads me to the same damn place / It’s okay tonight, because we killed it together / These memories are poison... but they’re all that I have / We built a world we'd love to forget / A brick out of what we built to abandon / Every farewell said is just a heartfelt graveyard / These memories are poison.
2.
I cant breathe and it’s my dreams that are killing me / The search for inspiration takes its toll and it’s taken a lifetime to turn back and face my past / Running became so easy, and just as easy to forget what I was running from / This life never game me a reason, so I’m balling my fists / I’m fighting back / Tonight is gonna be make or break, because we’re pulling out all the stops / Yet I digress...I cant breathe and it’s my dreams that are killing me / From what I’ve done comes who I am / Now I’ve made my choice and I refuse to die without a voice / No one ever said that this was going to be easy / In this moment I will live forever / With the grace of what I let unfold / Living long enough to spit back everything they shoved down my throat / In this moment I will live forever, with the grace of what I let unfold / Inspiration was found where never searched / And even though its taken everything from me / It was never enough / I refuse to die without a voice / Let my last breath be a sigh of relief.
3.
Watch as the warheads fall from the sky / Give me the avian flu, the Bubonic Plague, the worst of our fears / How I would love to end these years / A dose of death for every individual / The dullest blade across the softest throat / An end to all, for all shall end. May you perish with the rest / This is a call to every martyr, every lost soul / Bring the fourth horseman and every bit of hell with him / Let us destroy the rest and leave none breathing / No patience for the living.
4.
I want to be the reason you don't believe in anything / Open your eyes. One mindset for the masses / This is the perfect death to your happy ending / An education in hypocrisy, a crash course in disbelief / I am not afraid and I call 'em like I see 'em / No trial for your brother, straight to execution / You have the facts. (I am not afraid and I call 'em like I see 'em.) / Where do you stand? / I am not afraid / This story's villain is wearing white / And he is masked under blue skies / This is the fold of your "revolution" / Let Him bleed on the cross, he’s your false resolution / A turning point; the end of faith / This will be your God's dying day / "Vengeance shall be mine," so Saith your Lord / You're shit out of luck and the look on your face is priceless / Where do you stand? / This is the fallout, this is the end of faith.
