Dying to Believe Lyrics
[Intro]
Like dragging nails through my skin
[Verse 1]
Strip the scar, scratch the itch
Dig your nails deep until the nerve is good and raw
Pulling teeth again to pay for all your sins
The blue pill or the red, all you want are enemies
[Pre-Chorus]
Feel the tension set to break
We've swallowed more than we can take
Like dragging nails through my skin
[Chorus]
Die, die, dying to believe
This beast you resurrected won't break its leash
We're die, die, dying to believe
That the ghost of the ills of this world will find you where you sleep
We'll find you where you sleep, yeah
[Verse 2]
God complex, let's start a war
Whose prayers will you answer, whose will you ignore?
Paint it black and torn apart
Baptised in hate to the beat, to the beat of a hollow heart
[Pre-Chorus]
Feel the tension set to break
We've swallowed more than we can take
Like dragging nails through my skin
[Chorus]
Die, die, dying to believe
This beast you resurrected won't break its leash
We're die, die, dying to believe
That the ghost of the ills of this world will find you where you sleep
We'll find you where you sleep
We'll find you where you sleep
[Bridge]
'Cause it's a sick fucking world in a sick fucking time
Splitting at the seams as you desecrate the hive
The cancer's in your heart, the poison's in your mind
Forked tongue motherfucker, tell me, how the hell do you sleep at night?
How do you sleep at night?
How do you sleep at night?
Dying to believe
[Chorus]
Die, die, dying to believe
This beast you resurrected won't break its leash
We're die, die, dying to believe
That the ghost of the ills of this world will find you where you sleep
Crushed Lyrics
[Intro]
Brothers, my brothers
Is this all that we are?
Sisters, my sisters
We've been crushed by the fists of God
[Verse 1]
Welcome to the free world, where nothing's as it seems
Tell me, can you find a cure when you can't see and you can't feel the disease?
Can you seek a higher truth when you're living on your knees
Where freedom grows from blood-soaked soil in the lands of hypocrisy?
[Refrain]
'Cause if you can't see the chains, tell me what use is a key?
It's cash, blood, and oil in the age of the refugee
They're trying to buy our minds, we ain't selling
Bang, bang, bang, hear they're nailing down the coffins
[Pre-Chorus]
Cut the strings, feel your heart start
Cut the cord
Crack this code of silence
All our lives in the hands of tyrants
[Chorus]
Crushed by the fists of God, crushed
Crushed by the fists of God, crushed
(We've been crushed by the fists of God)
We've been crushed by the fists of God
[Verse 2]
To the left, I see the rats, and to the right, I see the snakes
In my ear, they're whispering sweet sermons of cruel hate
So do you buy the fear or do you buy the lies? Tell me, what will set us free?
Do we kneel before the crooked few or do we bite the fucking hand that feeds?
[Refrain]
When death casts no shadow and hope carries no weight
Rise into the light and feel the shackles fade away
They fear what we know, we know how they break
Bang, bang, bang, drop the hammer of conscience
[Pre-Chorus]
Cut the strings, feel your heart start
Cut the cord
Crack this code of silence
All our lives
[Chorus]
Crushed by the fists of God, crushed
Crushed by the fists of God, crushed
We've been crushed by the fists of God
[Bridge]
We're just waiting for the sky to fall
Yeah, I'm just waiting
Feels like all our lives we've been waiting for the sky to fall
Feels like all this time we've been...
[Interlude]
Brothers, my brothers
Is this all that we are?
Sisters, my sisters
We've been...
[Chorus]
Crushed by the fists of God
Crushed by the fists of God, crushed
Crushed by the fists of God, crushed
Fractures Lyrics
[Intro]
The Devil's at our door
[Verse 1]
The Bloodwoods shiver in the glare of summers haze
Dust of ancient lands breathes beneath our feet
Since the dawn of time, giver of life divine
Shadowed by dark ruination, looming down the line
[Pre-Chorus]
The poisoned lies of narrow minds
Now spread into the soul of life
[Chorus]
Bitter blight fractures life
This call for change won't be too late
[Post-Chorus]
The Devil's at our door, the Devil's at our door
Selling fool's gold and a miracle cure
[Verse 2]
Hearts of fire unite and man their barricades
Truth is overwhelming, and yet hollow men still talk in vain
Sowing sickness, shifting focus away
Setting in stone a future we cannot sustain
[Pre-Chorus 2]
We can't quench our thirst on profits gained
And we can't turn back once it begins
[Chorus]
Bitter blight fractures life
This call for change won't be too late
Won't be too late
Won't be too late
[Interlude]
They poison the well and expect us to drink
When the river runs dry only then, then will they see
[Bridge]
'Cause you can line your pockets, but you can't buy back your soul
These gates are locked, this future is not yours to own
You can line your pockets, but you can't buy back your soul
These gates are locked, this future is not yours to own
Yeah
[Chorus]
Bitter blight, it fractures life
This call for change won't be too late
This bitter, this bitter blight, bitter blight
It fractures, yeah, it fractures life
This call, this call for change, this call for change
It won't be, it won't be, it won't be too late
Bottom Feeder Lyrics
[Intro]
Go
[Verse 1]
I've heard enough, no more, no more, you've had your time in the sun
Keep your head down kid, your fifteen seconds are done
I know it hurts, I wanted it this way
All these years, I'm still the voice you can't destroy
I know how this one ends
Lying in the gutter spitting teeth at the sidewalk
I know how this one ends
So bite your tongue if you can't tame it
[Pre-Chorus]
Let's get this straight while you're listening
In my world, you count for nothing
[Chorus]
Bow, you'll be the one to drown
With the rats and the snakes
Bow, you'll be the one to drown
Bottom feeder, bottom feeder
Bottom feeder, bottom feeder
[Verse 2]
I've heard enough, I've heard enough to know
Who talks the talk, who walks the walk and who's for fucking show
I know it hurts, I know it cuts
That I'm still standing, I'm everything you're fucking not
I know how this one ends
Running from the world as your lies begin to cave
Yeah, I know how this one ends
Your hollow words make shallow graves
[Pre-Chorus]
Let's get this straight, while you're listening
In my world, you count for nothing
Let's get this straight, while you're listening
In my world, you count for nothing
[Chorus]
Bow, you'll be the one to drown
With the rats and the snakes
Bow, you'll be the one to drown
Bottom feeder
Bow, you'll be the one to drown
With the rats and the snakes
Bow, you'll be the one to drown
Bottom feeder
[Bridge]
See I feel no guilt like I feel no pain
Like I feel the fire running through my veins
You can't draw blood when my heart beats cold
And I'll take your word like I take your name
An ego lost in the valley of self-disdain
Pride cometh before the fall and you'll break as I watch it all collapse
[Breakdown]
No mercy, no peace
You can't escape this beast
No mercy, no peace
You can't escape this beast
No mercy, no peace
You can't escape this beast
No mercy, no peace
You can't escape, now snap your neck to this
You snap your neck to this, oh
[Outro]
No mercy, no peace
You fucking bottom feeder
No mercy, no peace
You fucking bottom feeder, fuck
