The Novelist Lyrics

5 ContributorsThe Novelist LyricsThis was just the beginning
It was on till the end
Before you begin to criticize us
All our blood, sweat and tears
Laid out on the table, for your judgment
If you only knew how much this meant to us
You would reconsider
Reconsider
Your choice of words
Reconsider
Your choice of words
This will be a new chapter for us
And I am the novelist, the novelist
My words will bend and break you
I can't do this, night after night after night
I can't remember the last time, this was not on my mind
Inspired by the sound of the voices in the background, or even
The wind against my skin
Yeah
These lies are filled
With greed and hatred
These lights that guide us are truly damning
Am I left here all alone
Damning
Am I left here all alone
This will be a new chapter for us
And I am the novelist, the novelist
My words will bend and break you
I can't do this, night after night after night
I can't remember the last time, this was not on my mind
Inspired by the sound of the voices in the background, or even
The wind against my skin
Against my skin
So fixated
Everyone seems so blinded by the light
Everyone needs to wake the fuck up
So fixated
Everyone seems so blinded by the light
Everyone needs to wake the fuck up
And have a mind of your own
And now you're broke
You're wall's invaded
And my words surround you
You, you can know
Begin to criticize
Put aside, put aside

The Weaker One Lyrics

2 ContributorsThe Weaker One LyricsRight now it's easy to see
This is not the way this was ever meant to be
These days turn to dust
As your words crumble in my ear
This makes no sense to me
You have become a shadow to me
Walking along the outskirts of my mind
This was never my intentions
I thought that this one would last forever
Would last forever, forever
Gasping for air
And the space to inhale
As you bled me dry
The tables have turned and you have become
The weaker one
Day in day out
You are clutching to these memories
Look out your window
Watch the world pass by
It's called life
When the fuck will you realize
That there is nothing you can do
But make the best of it
This was never my intentions
I thought that this one would last forever
Would last forever, forever
Gasping for air
And the space to inhale
As you bled me dry
Surrounding my every move
Surrounding my every move
This is the dawning of a new age
A new chapter in my life
And this is just the beginning of my journey
These tables have turned and you have become
The weaker one
Day in day out
You are clutching to these memories
Look out your window
Watch the world pass by
It's called life
And this is just the beginning of my journey

Dishonour Lyrics

3 ContributorsDishonour LyricsI stand out in the cold for hours
Waiting to be struck down
I have never cursed someone's name so many times
Even if it's just a myth
All I want is to be brought to you
I feel you watching over me
Inside it kills
The sound of your voice echoes in my head
From time to time I close my eyes
I have to live with this for the rest of my life
Every hour drags out
Every sunrise seems so dull
It's like every walking moment without you here
I stand out in the cold for hours
Waiting to be struck down
I have never cursed someone's name so many times
Even if it's just a myth
Didn't you hear me screaming
No from the top of my lungs
Didn't you hear that saddened sigh
I feel you watching over me
Inside it kills
The sound of your voice echoes in my head
From time to time I close my eyes
I have to live with this for the rest of my life
Every hour drags out
Every sunrise seems so dull
It's like every walking moment without you here
That night of my life
You will regret for the rest of yours
I will see this fucking through
You have ruined everything I have ever lived for
I want to see this ground shake
I want to see this earth open up and swallow every last one of us
To prove to me there is no fucking god

Vanity Lyrics

3 ContributorsVanity LyricsNo more can I take this false pretense
You are everything but nothing to me
Holding the hand of a liar
This is a fucking disaster
Misrepresentation becomes an obsession
As your words are so far from the truth
All hell will reign down upon us
As you move mountains with your words
You looked at me with your withered eyes
That guides this empty being
Inside of you, inside of you lies nothing but vanity
This obsession you have with yourself
I don't think you realize
Is only skin deep
How can you look down at me
When you don't even know me
How can you look down at me
When you don't even know me
Misrepresentation becomes an obsession
As your words are so far from the truth
All hell will reign down upon us
As you move mountains with your words
You looked at me with your withered eyes
That guides this empty being
Inside of you lies nothing but vanity
How can you look down at me
When you don't even know me
How can you look down at me
When you don't even know me
I see nothing but a coward that has no ethics
You live in a world of your own make believe
You live in a world of your own make believe
Nothing but a coward
Nothing but a coward

Empress Lyrics

3 ContributorsEmpress LyricsWe dim these lights for your return
Only you never showed
I still see this door open
Expecting your arrival
I need to hear those words
Laying motionless on the floor
You felt the cold of this early morning
Now you cannot feel the cold of its night
All your pain has gone
All your pain has gone
All your pain has gone
I remember laying on my back staring at the ceiling
Wondering what comes next
Can it get any worse than this
My pain has been numbed with fear
Laying motionless on the floor
You felt the cold of this early morning
Now you cannot feel the cold of its night
All your pain has gone
I can never seem to speak of this tragedy
So my pen bleeds all of my emotion onto this paper
All your pain has gone
All your pain has gone
I remember laying on my back staring at the ceiling
Wondering what comes next
Can it get any worse than this
My pain has been numbed with fear
So this is how it feels to be stripped of hope
As I have never felt so fucking empty
Watch the colour drain from my skin
Take every last piece of it in
And think before you realize what you may lose
What you may lose
What you may lose
What you may lose
