Alive!

(Verse 1)
Sent me home to forget
Laid me down to rest
They tried to bury me
I’m not dead quite yet
Expected me to waste away
Become a memory
I’m refusing to decay
Solitude the enemy
(Pre Chorus)
Feel me
Breathing, I’m breathing
Take a breath
Hear me
Speaking, I’m speaking
I just said
(Chorus)
I’m alive!
Alive! We’re alive!
(Verse 2)
Draw a breath into my lungs
I feel alive again
Stretch my arms and my wings
And shed this heavy skin
Take the pain in my head
I can’t stop the feeling
Show you that I’m not dead
I will stand up screaming… Let me live!
(Pre Chorus)
Feel me
Breathing, I’m breathing
Take a breath
Hear me
Speaking, I’m speaking
I just said
(Chorus)
I’m alive!
Alive! We’re alive!
(Bridge Verse)
Try to pin me down
Give you one last try
You can’t hold me down
I won’t die
(Outro)
Alive!
Alive!
Alive!
I am alive!

Battle Scars
04:48

(Verse 1)
Falling stars are fading
Into nothing real
Pick the scabs stop bleeding
Pain that cannot heal
Weary hunter searching
Trophies in the past
Flashback burns forever
Behind an iron mask
(Chorus)
Fade away
Burning out
Sanity
Breaking down
Misery
All around
Can’t I see?
My way out
(Verse 2)
Embers from the ashes
Burning in the soul
Silhouettes of madness
Rising in the smoke
Hungry hell hounds barking
Never satisfied
Sleepless hero wasting
In mental homicide
(Chorus)
Fade away
Burning out
Sanity
Breaking down
Misery
All around
Can’t I see?
My way out
(Bridge Verse)
Treat my wounds
Make me well
Scars remain
Time will tell
Future holds
My prison cell
Battle scars
Keep me in hell
In hell!
Save me from my Hell!
(Chorus)
Fade away
Burning out
Sanity
Breaking down
Misery
All around
Can’t I see?
My way out

Empty Shell
05:35
|
|||
(Verse 1)
Broken, beat and tired
You long for home so far away
A warrior’s fame desired
Now you’ll never get away
He whom seeks the calling
Forever hears the voices screaming
Remember the soldiers falling
Replay the images as your dreaming
(Chorus)
From the battlefield
Fighting for their king
Where they live to kill
To their life they cling
Haunted by the choice
For what they believe
Crawl into the void
Searching for relief
Another empty shell
From the war machine
(Verse 2)
The hero’s welcome fading
His misery constantly parading
The face in glass not caring
Don’t recognize the man who’s
staring
I.D. tags are ringing
To names that have lost all their meaning
Medicate your misery
But you cannot escape reality
(Chorus)
From the battlefield
Fighting for their king
Where they live to kill
To their life they cling
Haunted by the choice
For what they believe
Crawl into the void
Searching for relief
Another empty shell
From the war machine
(Bridge V)
Empty shell – down I fell
Empty shell - prison cell
Empty shell – time will tell
Empty shell - what the hell!?!
(Outro)
The war machine is through with me
Empty Shell!

Shouldn't Be
03:43
|
|||
(Verse 1)
Angry man has taken over me
Angry man I do not want to be
Hate shadows my entire life
Losing grip on my reality (ON MY REALITY)
Thick paste is blood inside my veins
Cold sweat it soothes the burning face
Rage devours my damaged soul
Compassion now an empty space
(Chorus)
Outrageous
In too deep!
Contagious
Sickness me!
Memories of things that should not be
They should not be
Shouldn’t Be!
(Verse 2)
Look up to me with hopeful eyes
Breathing the stench of little cries
Strays licking scabs that drip
Stuck through my heart to rot inside
Spoiling bodies lie in forgotten graves
Memories that I want to erase
Maggots laugh at what I see
Buzzing bodies born to fly away
(Chorus)
Outrageous
In too deep!
Contagious
Sickness me!
Memories of things that should not be
They should not be
Shouldn’t Be!

Parasite
03:30
|
|||
(Verse 1)
Dark holes painted in bright sky
Shock wave kissing the earth good night
Fingers point at the one who blames
As the world goes down in flames
(Chorus)
Blind eye, deny
Ignore, parasite
Sleep well, sleep tight
Sweet dreams, parasite
(Verse 2)
Truth caught in a spinning web
Molesting flies before they’re dead
Suck the lies from many faces
Gag reflexes when it’s tasted
(Chorus)
Blind eye, deny
Ignore, parasite
Sleep well, sleep tight
Sweet dreams, parasite
(Bridge Verse)
Close your eyes (Won’t go away)
Hear the cries (Won’t go away¬)
Don’t you fight (Won’t go away)
Don’t you dare, Irritate
The parasite!
