Long Live lyrics - Atreyu

Go!

We say this means forever

Can't cut the chord and walk away

No special ceremonies

Seeking their approval, no not today

We’re not gonna hear it

You're full of shit

Our desires burning brightly

We’re still hungry getting after it

A symbol of promise and of light

When we were wandering lost in the dark

Somehow we'll make it through the pain

(Rise back up when we fall down, we'll fight)

Our bond is forever lasting

(Forever lasting)

Smash, move

Go stamp your feet

To the sound of our eclectic heartbeats

Dance, push

Rage, feel the heat

Kill the background music

A symbol of promise and of light

When we were wandering lost in the dark

Somehow we'll make it through the pain

(Rise back up when we fall down, we'll fight)

Our bond is forever lasting

The past is the past

What has been done is set to stone

The future is all we have

We are the ones who set the tone

And if I should fall

The ground won't touch me at all

We're up in arms

Side by side

Linked in our souls

Our bond is forever

Our bond is forever

A symbol of promise and of light

When we were wandering lost in the dark

Somehow we'll make it through the pain

(Rise back up when we fall down, we'll fight)

Our bond is forever lasting

Our bond is forever lasting

Our bond is forever lasting

Live To Labor lyrics - Atreyu

In the cold dead of night

Wrest your self from sleep

To face the morning light

So Pathologically

Trapped in a system that breaks originality

In favor of bland safe marketability

Middle of a long day

Turns into working long weeks

What are we doing this for

Whose fucking stocks will increase

At times we're all just little junkies and whores

Clawing scratching unattainable dreams

How much can we take

To labor and to break

Our backs against the system's walls

I say smash it fucking down

In control of our fate

We produce and we create

The guns from which we sell our souls

I say smash it fucking all

How ironic is the plan of our lives

Working doubles to survive, to get by

A passionless job in a meaningless lie

I despise being trite to get by

What do you offer?

What can you create?

What do you contribute?

What profit is made?

How much can we take

To labor and to break

Our backs against the system's walls

I say smash it fucking down

In control of our fate

We produce and recreate

The cost for which we sell our souls

I say smash it fucking all

I say smash it fucking down

Smash it fucking down

How much can we take

To labor and to break

Our backs against the system's walls

I say smash it fucking down

In control of our fate

We produce and we create

The guns from which we sell our souls

I say smash it fucking all

I say smash it fucking all

I Would Kill / Lie / Die (For You) lyrics - Atreyu

Go

Picture yourself alone

And trapped in a dark flooding room

The water is rising up

And signaling the impeding doom

Kicking at the walls with bound legs

Screaming at the world with no voice

Breaking your hands against black walls

The journey is long

And wrought with peril

I will be strong

This is never-ending

Please know I'd fight for you

And listening after all this heartache

You are my everything

I'll simply die for you

You are the greatest gift of all, yeah

You are so heavenly

And so I am tested

Punished, broken, dejected

Trying to buy you myself

Vowing to find a way out

Fake positivity

All that's left fueling me

The pain did not cause any doubt

The journey is long

And wrought with peril

I will be strong

This is never-ending

Please know I'd fight for you

And listening after all this heartache

You are my everything

I'll simply die for you

You are the greatest gift of all, yeah

You are so heavenly

This I swear, by the blood of my own

I will protect you, I could weather any storm

This I swear, my heart on my home

To love and protect you, to fight each and every war

This I swear, it's all that I know

To be your example, to stand up when others fall

Down

Please know I'd fight for you

And listening after all this heartache

You are my everything

I'll simply die for you

You are the greatest gift of all, yeah

You're heavenly

Please know I'd fight for you

And listening after all this heartache

You are my everything

I'll simply die for you

You are the greatest gift of all, yeah

You're heavenly

Cut Off The Head lyrics - Atreyu

Hold your breath, enable the sinner

When good people go silent, there's no winners

Only accomplices and deceivers

When good people go silent, there's no winners

To me, you're all the same

You should be bound and draped in chains

A bully, a rapist, it's all the same

Overload the boat, don't drag the lake

The only thing you're taking from me

Is a burning ax to the carotid artery

The only thing you're taking from me

Is a burning ax to the carotid artery

Some heads have gotta roll

Cut off the head and burn the body down

Burn it down

There is a demon living inside of you

A demon inside of you

Destroy you, I can justify the violence

Break through the shame and the silence

After so much has been taken away

The evil in you should be fully repaid

Some heads have gotta roll

Cut off the head and burn the body down

Burn it down

There is a demon living inside of you

A demon inside of you

And when the pushed push back, we'll see who's who

We'll see who's who

You will be damned, wasted in solitude

Wasted in solitude

And in the end

In the fires of hell

May be your torment

Redefine and amplify your constant suffering

Jet black your heart

Cut out your heart

Jet black your heart

Cut out your heart

There is no justice

There is no justice

Jet black your heart

Cut out your heart

Some heads have gotta roll

Cut off the head and burn the body down

Burn it down

There is a demon living inside of you

A demon inside of you

And when the pushed push back, we'll see who's who

We'll see who's fucking who

You will be damned, wasted in solitude

Wasted in solitude

A Bitter Broken Memory lyrics - Atreyu

Disassociate

Try not to feel

Pay no attention to it

It won't seem real

A blind eye enables what we quell

Then nature takes it course

And breaks your will

I can't pick up the pieces

As fast as you throw them away

I can't hold you together

If you don't want to stay

Don't want to be your light

I burned myself so much I died inside

So what is left of me?

A bitter broken memory

Don't want to live your life

I can no longer even sympathize

With what you've come to be

A bitter broken memory

Here we are

You expect me to face hell's fury

I survive

Sharing the pieces of your heartache

I'm imperfect too, a jaded monster just like you

I can barely fake it for me

And I won't play the game for the benefit of you

I can't pick up the pieces

As fast as you throw them away

I can't hold you together

If you don't want to stay

Don't want to be your light

I burned myself so much I died inside

So what is left of me?

A bitter broken memory

Don't want to live your life

I can no longer even sympathize

With what you've come to be

A bitter broken memory

Don't want to be your light

I burned myself so much I died inside

So what is left of me?

A bitter broken memory

Don't want to live your life

I can no longer even sympathize

With what you've come to be

A bitter broken memory

A bitter broken memory

A bitter broken memory

Do You Know Who You Are? lyrics - Atreyu

It's the end of the world and nobody cares

Got problems of our own so nobody stares

At themselves in the mirror anymore

A good hard look can shake you to the core

So

Do you know who you are?

Part of the solution or the one at fault

Look in your heart

Pull the pin, be careful where the fragments go

Live for yourself, don't care about collateral

Damage and such don't mean too much

When your head stuck up in your own asshole

It's easy not to see (so easy)

To be blind to the fact that the problems

That lay before us as we (as we)

Were created by a lack of our respect

So

Do you know who you are?

Part of the solution or the one at fault

Look in your heart

In your heart

Do you know who you are?

In your heart

Yeah, do you know who you are?

(I do, I do, I know who I am)

Part of the solution or the one at fault

(Cause today I'm standing up)

Look in your heart

In your heart

Do you know who you are?

In your heart

Revival lyrics - Atreyu

(Instrumental)

Heartbeats And Flatlines lyrics - Atreyu

Lie down, curl up in a ball

You'll never even need to crawl

Strive for shit, slave to it

You're working for the means to an end

Build walls and watch bridges fall

So hungry for the new next best

Strive for shit, slave to it

You're working for the means to an end

Does your heart have a beat?

Does it just sit in your chest?

Crowding your soul, taking space

While you wait for a place to decay

There is more to this life

Than the flesh and the pain

Who keeps carving their mark on your fate?

While you wait for a place to decay

To decay

Wide open skies (Wide open skies)

A billion dreams or dead stars in the night

Exploding cannonballs

Breaking down the walls between you and life

It's time to open up your eyes

To cut all strings and die

To draw the fucking line

Between the living and alive

Does your heart have a beat?

Does it just sit in your chest?

Crowding your soul, taking space

While you wait for a place to decay

There is more to this life

Than the flesh and the pain

Who keeps carving their mark on your fate?

While you wait for a place to decay

Your greed

Our greed

Consumes

Everything

Does your heart have a beat?

Does it sit in your chest?

Crowding your soul, taking space

While you wait for a place to decay

There is more to this life

Than the flesh and the pain

Who keeps carving their mark on your fate?

While you wait for a place to decay

Brass Balls lyrics - Atreyu

There you go, you dumb kid

Running your mouth again and again

Talking all that shit with a big grin

Tripping on words again and again

Oh how exceptional the sound

Of your word vomit coming out

You're getting caught up saying foolish things

I don't believe you believe half the shit you say

Say what you want, I don't give a fuck

I learn things the hard way

Lay yourself down on the tracks

Be crucified by your own words

You're no cross bearer

You're not a fucking martyr

(Just a kid, only a fool)

Barely man enough to stand

You're no cross bearer

You're not a fucking martyr

You're no cross bearer

You're no martyr

The world doesn't need more mindless shit

Labeled as unique, there's no heart to it

You may never feel it like I feel it

You'll never learn, there's no heart to it

But you've got the biggest fucking balls

Brass ones that drag as you crawl

And for some reason, I think you stole them

You may be faking after all

Say what you want, I don't give a fuck

I learn things the hard way

Lay yourself down on the tracks (lay down)

Be crucified by your own words

You're no cross bearer

You're not a fucking martyr

(Just a kid, only a fool)

Barely man enough to stand

You're no cross bearer

You're not a fucking martyr

Say what you want, I don't give a fuck

I learn things the hard way

Say what you want, we don't give a fuck

We learn things the hard way

Say what you want, we don't give a fuck

We learn things the hard way

Lay yourself down on the tracks (lay down)

Be crucified by your own words

You're no cross bearer

You're not a fucking martyr

(Just a kid, only a fool)

Barely man enough to stand

You're no cross bearer

You're not a fucking martyr

Moments Before Dawn lyrics - Atreyu

The falling's out, but we'd be back

Like a gunshot that may have hurt less

Than the words I caught in the chest as your body rot

I tried to catch you but I keep my heart locked

I fall through the floor

Hell can hurt like this

All the things I'll never say, the way it never plays (never plays)

Out the way I see it in my head

The pain, the way it haunts me lingering for days (lingering)

No funeral for what it could have been

Paralyzed again, engaged on the auto pilot

We can fight it but it's hard to hide it

Trying to deny the loss

Trying to hide the fact that

I haven't slept for days

(I haven't slept for days)

And you won't stop crying

(And you won't stop crying)

These moments before dawn

I'd rather be dying

I fall through the floor

Hell can hurt like this

All the things I'll never say, the way it never plays (never plays)

Out the way I see it in my head

The pain, the way it haunts me lingering for days (lingering)

No funeral for what it could have been

All the things I'll never say, the way it never plays (never plays)

Out the way I see it in my head

The pain, the way it haunts me lingering for days (lingering)

No funeral for what it could have been

I haven't slept for days

And you won't stop crying

These moments before dawn

Feel just like dying

But what do I know

I'm still here, broken and alone with my fears

Start To Break lyrics - Atreyu

Hunted by mindless beasts

Haunted by my desire

To create and destroy

To defy with a smile

Everyday is stick and move

Either way they're after you

Mediocre their soulless lives

They live for nothing, they have no pride

They're always after me

Pleading eyes and vacant arms

They're always draining me

Needy souls, empty hearts

Can’t pull the wool over my eyes

I can still see

I'm so tired but I won't stop moving

Fearful, my humanity is running away

I’m not foolish I won't stop dreaming

I know that I can be better than I am today

The pressure builds and I'm starting to break

I'm so tired but I won't stop moving

Fearful, my humanity is running away

Away, far from here

From all the cowards and fear

Far away, from here

From all the cowards and fear

The push beyond ones self

To live in the unknown

The push beyond ones self

To live in the unknown

Can't pull the wool over my eyes

I can still see

Can't pull the wool over my eyes

You can’t blind me

I'm so tired but I won't stop moving

Fearful, my humanity is running away

I'm not foolish I won't stop dreaming

I know that I can be better than I am today

The pressure builds and I'm starting to break

I'm so tired but I won't stop moving

Fearful, my humanity is running away

Go

If you've never been tested

Then you'll never see

What lives inside of you

Is worth more than anything

If you've never been tested

Then you'll never see

What lives inside of you

Is worth more than anything

And at that moment

When I doubt myself

I pick my feet up

And I hit the ground

I'm so tired but I won't stop moving

Fearful, my humanity is running away

I’m not foolish I won't stop dreaming

I know that I can be better than I am today

The pressure builds and I'm starting to break

I'm so tired but I won't stop moving

Fearful, my humanity is running away

Away, running away

Reckless lyrics - Atreyu

(I'm living recklessly)

(I'm living recklessly)

A black hole, a raging river

The void inside of me

Compelling me, driving me, I'm incomplete

Molding me, holding me up on my fate

There's something about

The wind in the trees

It's haunting to me

Despair in the air, anxiety on the breeze

There's something about

The sound of the waves

It holds me under

It never takes

It's getting the best of me, I'm living recklessly

A black hole, a raging river

The void inside of me

Compelling me, driving me, I'm incomplete

Molding me, holding me up on my fate

I'm living recklessly

I'm living recklessly

This hideous creation, self made

Beautiful inspiration, I'm plagued

(Day by day)

I'm hostage to my own creation

(Day by day)

I'm possessed, an abomination

Somewhere beyond

And past the point of nothing left

It will fuel me on

It will give me a new breath, go

And from the pages

Of ancient prophecy

A mythical plague

Propels my destiny

The betrayer of man

Forced a quest for certainty

Never asking myself

What beats inside of me

Never asking my soul

What hides inside of me

I won't break so easily

I choose my own direction

I can't stop (No)

Can't stop my evolution

I can't stop (No)

Can't stop this revolution

I can't stop (No)

Can't stop my evolution

I can't stop (No)

Can't stop this revolution

Go

When The Day Is Done lyrics - Atreyu

Feels like I'm falling face first

Down a flight of stairs

My jaw breaks the fall

My teeth are everywhere

But I'm a quick study

Pain doesn't bother me

It teaches me lessons

Corrects the weakness within

When the day is done

I'll stand triumphantly

When the day is done

I won't be washed away

After I fall

I'll fly on broken wings

Dreams come true

Nothing ventured nothing gained

I reject this risk nothing society

Pain building character

Teaching humility

I reject the weakness living inside of me

Pain building character

Teaching humility

I won't be led astray

In our culture that is so insane

No guts no glory

No pleasure no pain

Everyday you have

You've got to step up to the plate

When the day is done

I'll stand triumphantly

When the day is done

I won't be washed away

After I fall

I'll fly on broken wings

Dreams come true

Nothing ventured nothing gained

Accept the pain, breathe it in, and walk away

Accept the pain, breathe it in, and walk away

Accept the pain, breathe it in, and walk away

Accept the pain, breathe it in, and walk away

Accept the pain, breathe it in, and walk away

When the day is done

I'll stand triumphantly

When the day is done

I won't be washed away

After I fall

I'll fly on broken wings

Dreams come true

Nothing ventured nothing gained

So Others May Live lyrics - Atreyu

Every stitch represents a soul

A son, a daughter, someone you know

Freedom has a price

The high road, a steep toll

Party lines, they don't mean shit

When you're in the desert

When your life's at risk

Rich kids don't go to war

Only the disposable masses

Rich kids don't go to war

We do!

We do!

[Chorus x2:]

So others may live

Ask yourself what have you done

To deserve their respect

You've never been on the wrong side of a gun

Politicians or terrorists?

Killing the youth and robbing the sick

Running this nation into the ground

No IED kills like the house and senate

Rich kids don't go to war

Only the disposable masses

Rich kids don't go to war

We do!

We do!

[Chorus x2]

For the warriors that we have lost

For the ones that we're yet to lose

For the warriors that we have lost

For the ones that we're yet to lose

We stand with honor and salute the

Ones who fight for me and you

For the warriors that we have lost

For the ones that we're yet to lose

Every stitch represents a soul

A son, a daughter, someone you know

[Chorus x2]

Stronger Than Me lyrics - Atreyu

What feeling I get back typing

Laying in wait in the best parts inside of me

I don't know how you stand the sight of me

So detached I'm hiding from security

I tried to open up for you to see

But after all that it comes out frightening

Sometimes it must feel challenging

We'll overcome play dumb give up on me

Don't stop, not yet

I've still got more to give

Hold fast, the ship

Will get there in the end

Don't stop, not yet

I've still got more to give

Hold fast, the ship

Will get there in the end

The brightest day

Clouds are covering the bluest skies

And I can't stop the rain

Every drop stains on my name

So lucky, so ungrateful

My sanity, it is unwinding

When I threaten I'm done

Raise your drink, that keeps us fighting

Don't stop, not yet

I've still got more to give

Hold fast, the ship

Will get there in the end

Don't stop, not yet

I've still got more to give

Hold fast, the ship

Will get there in the end

When I was lost

You were always there, my guiding light

You are my ward, my compass rose, my lighthouse in the night

When I was lost

You were always there, my guiding light

You are my ward, my compass rose, my lighthouse in the night

Hold fast, stead fast

Go

Don't stop, not yet

I've still got more to give

Hold fast, the ship

Will get there in the end

Don't stop, not yet

I've still got more to give

Hold fast, the ship

Will get there in the end

Battle Drums lyrics - Kayzo & Atreyu

(Where these dark days turn to...

Pain hangs round like a plague in your stomach

And these dark— agh... fuckin' hell)

So this is it, will you take a stand?

You clench your fist and draw a line in the sand

Close your eyes, pray for strength, don't even give a fuck

The world's on fire, we're just not giving up

When these dark days last a lifetime

The pain hangs round like a plague in your stomach

And these heartbeats turn to flatlines

You better start running

I can hear the battle drums coming

I can hear the battle drums coming

I can hear the battle drums coming

One, two, three, go

I can hear the battle drums

I can hear the battle drums

I can hear the battle drums

So this is it, will you take a stand?

You clench your first and draw a line in the sand

When these dark days last a lifetime

The pain hangs round like a plague in your stomach

And these heartbeats turn to flatlines

You better start running

I can hear the battle drums coming

I can hear the battle drums coming

Fuck!

I can hear the battle drums coming

I can hear the battle drums

I can hear the battle drums

When these dark days last a lifetime

The pain hangs round like a plague in your stomach

And these heartbeats turn to flatline

You better start running

I can hear the battle drums coming

Warrior (Remix) lyrics - Atreyu & Zero 9:36 (feat. Travis Barker)

I am a warrior, I walk with the gods

I am a warrior, I will never stop, yeah

Sometimes I feel like I'm falling

So fast from the sky from the weight of my life

Sometimes I feel like I'm hunted

Attack me with knives, cut me up in the night

I am a warrior, I walk with the gods

I am a warrior, I will never stop

What doesn't kill me makes me stronger

I am the wolf, I am the hunter

I am a warrior, I walk with the gods

No, I won't take no for an answer

I leave behind all the lies

I taught myself to survive

I am a warrior, I walk with the gods

I am a warrior, I will never stop

What doesn't kill me makes me stronger

I am the wolf, I am the hunter

I am a warrior, I walk with the gods

I am a—

Heart of a, heart of a motherfucking god, already started this riot

Ain't buying whatever they selling, I'm locked in, not this time

'Cause you bleed me out, the weight of the world on my shoulders can't keep me down

Feel like a felon whenever it comes to this shit, I can never get the peace around (I am a—)

Superhuman, you shoulda knew this, feel like they keep on having disillusions

Shit's amusing, ain't enough hours inside of the day to keep living like (I am a—)

I got some shit to prove, it's going fine, take over the world 'cause I know what's mine

They keep taking shots like it's overtime, and

I am a warrior, I walk with the gods

I am a warrior, I will never stop

What doesn't kill me makes me stronger

I am the wolf, I am the hunter

I am a warrior, I walk with the gods

Yeah

Stop! Before It's Too Late And We've Destroyed It All Lyrics – atreyu

I live
I stalk
I hunt
I eat
With indifference for all
I walk
I kill
I sleep
I breed
Slowly taking control
The sickest part of our species
Ravenous to evolve
We spread like a fucking disease
No vaccine protocol

And at the end of days
This will be our legacy

[Chorus:]
We
Kill, kill
Multiply
Until the skies are black
And the rivers dry
Take, take
Take our time
We leave no one else behind
Kill, kill
And deny
Until the skies are black
And the rivers dry
Take, take
We take our time
We leave nothing else behind

I don't
Feel anything
At all
As rats gnaw at my bones
I'm not
Made of the
Same things at all
A mechanical heart
The sickest part of our species
Ravenous to evolve
We spread like a fucking disease
No vaccine protocol

And at the end of days
This will be our legacy

[Chorus]

You cannot stop what never ends [2x]
You cannot stop what never ends [2x]

And at the end of days
This will be our legacy

[Chorus]

Bleeding Is A Luxury Lyrics – atreyu

Ive talked the talk, I've walked the walk,
It's taken ten fucking years,
For them to see I don't need their approval.
I've paid the piper,
I've stayed my course,
Lived chomping at the bit.
With only blood, sweat, and tears to adhere to-

[Chorus:]
Open your eyes and see,
That it's so menacing,
You need to realize that bleeding is a luxury.
Give 'til there's nothing left,
Value in every breath,
You need to realize that bleeding is a luxury.

Take it for granted,
Forsake the costs,
Wear a big, shit-eating grin
(with only blood, sweat, and tears to adhere to)
Now bear the burden to chase your fate
Grind your teeth 'til it fucking hurts
So they can see I don't need their approval.

[Chorus]

Seize the day,
Take your beatings,
Lead the way,
Or decay as you fall down...
You fall down.

[Chorus]

It's a luxury,
Bleeding is a luxury!

Coffin Nails Lyrics – atreyu

Don't give a shit about it
Curl up, I start to doubt this
Something has died in me today (smell the decay)
I need some air around me
Claw walls until my nails bleed
Don't seal my coffin shut today

Coffin nails
So hard to pull
How can I break free?!

[Chorus:]
From the ties that hold you down (break free)
From the grips of loneliness (break free)
There's something missing in my life that I'm running after (break free)
Never meant to be hold down (break free)
All I need is home right now (break free)
There's something missing in my life that I'm running after.

Self doubt breaks down my resolve
It cripples a part of my soul
And masterfully I'll hide my pain (smell the decay)
Dead eyes and a hollow smile
Pitch black, my vision is gone
And masterfully I'll hide my pain.

Coffin nails
So hard to pull
How can I break free?!

[Chorus]

These coffin nails
Are keeping me from the only thing I love
This monster is holding me
How will I break free?

From the ties that hold you down (break free)
From the grips of loneliness (break free)
There's something missing in my life that I'm running after (break free)
Never meant to be hold down (break free)
All I need is home right now (break free)
There's something missing in my life that I'm running after.

Congregation Of The Damned Lyrics – atreyu

I'm gonna give this monster life
I may not have the pieces
I'll keep on going through the night
To see you are left screaming

Face to face
The congregation of the damned
Face to face
Screaming while we can

I get carried away
Lost in a moment
Torn into pieces
A violent display
I'm carried away
Lost in a moment
Searching for answers
I'm lost in the fray

This life's a case of do or die
Sometimes I need no reason
To lose myself in you tonight
Right now's the time to season

Face to face
The congregation of the damned
Face to face
Screaming while we can

I get carried away
Lost in a moment
Torn into pieces
A violent display
I'm carried away
Lost in a moment
Searching for answers
I'm lost in the fray

The congregation of the damned
The congregation of the damned

Face to face
The congregation of the damned
Face to face
We're all screaming while we can

I get carried away
Lost in a moment
Torn into pieces
A violent display
I'm carried away
Lost in a moment
Searching for answers
I'm lost in the fray

I'm carried away
Lost in a moment
Searching for answers
I'm lost in the fray

I get carried away
Lost in a moment
Torn into pieces
A violent display
I'mcarried away
Lost in a moment
Searching for answers
I'm lost in the fray

Black Days Begin Lyrics – atreyu

We're all hell bent on destruction
Trying to erase black spots on our souls
Hide from a violent eruption
Cataclysmic engulfing us all.

Lay down (lay down)
Tonight (tonight)
In front of the things
That conquer us all.

Your body, it taunts me
Your flesh is, oh so haunting.

[Chorus:]
Children of the night.
Throw your hands up in the air.
We all know we've lost the fight.
Hope dies out and we can see the end.
Black days begin.

Walk down this path of temptation
Deny the flesh ignore whats crawling below.

Stay true (stay true)
Stay cold (stay cold)
In front of the things
That conquer us all!

Your body, it taunts me
Your flesh is, oh so haunting.

[Chorus]

[Solos]

Your body, it taunts me
Your flesh is, oh so haunting.

[Chorus 2x]

Gallows Lyrics – atreyu

This life starts
with a heartbeat,
is it beat, beat, beat, beat, beating, me down,
like the loser I am?

I can't help
but to see
that success scares
the living shit out of me,
like the loser I am.

Everytime I walk away;
Every word I never say.

[Chorus:]
Restless
Chasing shadows
Choices
Facing Gallows
or,
Are you hanging by a thread,
Or swinging from the rope?
Don't think we don't see your scars
Are you afraid of who you are?

Are you afraid of who you are!?

Denial what subtle burn,
Is it burn, burn, burn, burn, burning me out,
Or feeding the flames?

Spread out the ash
Pretend to see
That you can
Still find some value in me;
Or is it feeding the flames?

Everytime I walk away;
Every word I never say.

[Chorus]

Oh my god,
What am I afraid of
Success or not having what it takes?

Oh my god,
I afraid of me
And everything that brings.

[Chorus]

Afraid of who you are?
Are you afraid of who you are!?!

Storm To Pass Lyrics – atreyu

Razor wire
Gift wraps the things we've done
Afterthoughts
Of past storms weathered before

Oh, no! Oh, no!
I watch the clouds roll in
Oh, no! Oh, no!
It's happening again

[Chorus:]
I'll be watching, waiting
Dreadful, shaking
Will the storm pass over us today?
Will lighting strike our sins away?
Watching
Waiting
Falling
Shaking
Will the storm pass over us today?
Or is the future looking grey?

Aftermath
Much worse then it was before
Battle scars
Some are seen and some are not

Oh, no! Oh, no!
I watch the clouds roll in
Oh, no! Oh, no!
It's happening again

[Chorus]

You can't hide from thunder
And I never thought
We'd turn out this way, yeah!
You can't hide from thunder

[Solos]

Watching, waiting
Dreadful, shaking
Will the storm pass over us today?
Will lighting strike our sins away?
Watching, Waiting
Falling, Shaking
Will the storm pass over us today?
Or is the future looking grey?

Hey!
Hey!

You Were King Now You're Unconscious Lyrics – atreyu

There is no light in sight
Only a tunnel of pain
Only your legs will carry you
Carry you to the end!

Live your life for yourself
Or live for the struggle at best

Just don't let it strangle you
Just don't let it strangle you!

And after all this
No one will carry you home

And without a thought
You let your guard fall to the ground
Thought you were the king
But now it's gone

Taste the air as you pull it in your lungs
Try to savior it for one more song

The thick of the battle
A metaphor for this life
You never see it hit you
Until it smashes you in the face!

You try as best as you can
And I knock you down again

Just don't let it strangle you
Just don't let it strangle you!

And after all this
No one will carry you home

And without a thought
You let your guard fall to the ground
Thought you were the king

But now it's gone
Taste the air as you pull it in your lungs
Try to savior it for one more song

Get up!
Get up now
Get up right now!
I scream to myself

Get up!
Get up now
Get up right now!
I scream at myself

And after all this
No one will carry you home

And without a thought
You let your guard fall to the ground
Thought you were the king

But now it's gone
Taste the air as you pull it in your lungs
Try to savior it for one more song

Insatiable Lyrics – atreyu

Can't check myself at all
Break my fist on the fucking wall
Because raw instinct is all I know
And it suits me just fine

Convince myself that my
Actions aren't received as spite
Then passionately is how I'll go
And it suits me just fine

When I have everything I want
Will I be good enough?
But I can't have everything
Cause nothing's good enough
I'm insatiable
And I hunt down my dreams
It's the only thing I know

Suddenly anger cripples
Colours red everything around me
Sometimes we hurt the ones that we love
And it kills me inside
Then I will pay a price, you see?
The cost is overbearing
The price I pay could be undreamed of
And it fills me inside

When I have everything I want
Will I be good enough?
But I can't have everything
Cause nothing's good enough
I'm insatiable
And I hunt down my dreams
It's the only thing I know
I'm insatiable
Don't look down on me
I can bear this burden alone
This constant dart craving
Ripping apart my soul

Cause nothing's good enough
I'm insatiable
And I hunt down my dreams
It's the only thing I know
I'm insatiable
Don't look down on me
I can bear this burden alone
This constant dart craving
Ripping apart my soul
I'm insatiable

So Wrong Lyrics – atreyu

Used to be, I could make the pieces fit
Break the edges, force fit all of this
How could I ever be so wrong?
At our base, we are doomed once we begin
Kinda makes you wonder, "What's the sense?"
How could I ever be so wrong?

And I know that
Fate keeps loathing

[Chorus:]
I can't help (but go back to it)
A flame still burns (at the back of it)
And although (there is a lack of it)
I wont forget how...

Simply put, what's done is dead and gone
Can't forget, not for very long
There is no pride involved in love.
You can't manufacture happiness
Try forever, you would be remissed
There is no pride involved in love,
No pride involved.

And all that I know is that
I know nothing

[Chorus]

You made me feel alive
But nothing lasts forever
Yet something deep inside
It takes me home again

[Chorus]

You made me feel alive
But nothing lasts forever
Yet something deep inside
It takes me home again

And all that I know is that
I know nothing
All that I know is
I know nothing

Ravenous Lyrics – atreyu

All hail
The tip of the spear
The misguided, unyielding force
Unleashed abroad a foreign nightmare of pain
Is this what we want for ourselves?

Creep, crawl
Under your sheets
Cheat it's way through the back door
Unaffected till we are affected
Then we push for war
Then we push for war
Then we push for war

[Chorus:]
Ravenous and racing forward
Never looking back
We've killed more than we need

Knives out
We bare our teeth
Strength and pain are what rules the world
End of days and we're racing to red lights
Does that make sense to anyone else?

Deny any wrong doing
Pass the buck and then fake some more blame
Lie's a circle then we all reap the whirlwind
Then we push for war
Then we push for war
Then we push for war

[Chorus]

Gluttonous we feed on power
Never looking back
We've killed more than we need

What goes around
Comes around
And around and around and
Hateful young men
Turn to old hateful men
What goes around
Comes around
And around and around and
Hateful young men
Turn to old dead men

[Chorus]

Gluttonous we feed on power
Never looking back
We've killed more than we need
We've killed more than we need

Lonely Lyrics – atreyu

To unafraid of what's to come
I hit the ground and run
Not sure what's coming next
And never looking back

Hollow nights to empty days
Something had to change
Before it gets too late and there's no turning back

One by one we fit and then we fall
One by one we fit and then we fall

[Chorus:]
Lonely, is this what we've become?
So lonely, fragile and unloved
Lost inside ourselves and blindly staring at the sun
So lonely, is this what we've become?

Line them up they fall
Something to live for
Not sure who's coming next
But never looking back

I want something more
Something to live for
Before it gets too late and there's no turning back

One by one we fit and then we fall
One by one we fit and then we fall

[Chorus]

One by one we fit and then we fall
One by one we fit and then we fall

[Chorus x2]

Wait For You Lyrics – atreyu

It started with a kiss and turned out something else.
The blood coursing through my veins I think of no one else
I never believed in much but I believe in this.
I'm incomplete without you, I'd kill to taste your kiss.

I'm lost and lonely,
Scared and hiding.
Blind without you.

[Chorus:]
When the the world comes crashing down and the skies begin to fall,
I'll wait for you
When the days grow old and long and my skins turns into stone,
I'll wait for you
When the pain it seems too much and my heart starts beating out of touch I don't need a thing,
I'll wait for you

It's all so different now, emotions burn me out.
I have a lifeless touch, this distance leaves no doubt.
I fear it all too much but part of me believes.
As the years pass away you made me recognize,

I'm lost and lonely,
Scared and hiding.
Blind without you.

[Chorus]

Yeah...
'cause I'll wait for you...

When the the world comes crashing down and the skies begin to fall,
I'll wait for you
When the days grow old and long and my skins turns into stone,
I'll wait for you
When the pain it seems too much and my heart starts beating out of touch I don't need a thing.
I know I don't need a thing.
I'll wait for you.

Bravery Lyrics – atreyu

[Bonus track]

Torture myself!
Yet I've never seemed so brave!
Remind myself!
What it takes to keep us safe!
And love forces!
Conspiring to, destroy you and me!
And my sacrifice is that aren't me!

[Chorus:]
My heart is broken, ripped open.
I can't shield my eyes from the truth.
My heart was broken, stitched shut again.
By those who beat for me and you.

Deny yourself!
The huge cause of this marching!
Engorge yourself!
And decide our casualties!
And love forces!
Conspiring to, destroy you and me!
And my sacrifice is that are me!

[Chorus]

Beautify,
The images from my mind!
But the memory stays behind!
Cut our eyes!
That no more in my life!
The memory comes back to life!

[Chorus]

For me and you!
For me and you...
For me and you!
For me and you!

We Are The Living Dead Lyrics – atreyu

[Bonus track]

Look up!
I can't !
To find whats killing you
Dig in!
Stand on!
Embrace what's inside you
Prepare for war and,
The battle is easy!
So simple and so true!

So much war!
This smoking buries us deeply!
Regret our days, when it's time to shine!
It's fucking time!

[Chorus:]
Roaming the night
Stalking our prey
We will take our time
We are the living dead!
Does this despite?
Forming the hatred into the night
We are the living dead!

Watch out!
Prepare!
To defend your dreams, stay true
Face down!
No guilt!
Don't dream, or we'll find you!

Will you fight back
And keep whats rightfully yours!?
Time to fight what's blocking you!

So much war!
This smoking buries us deeply!
Regret our days, when it's time to shine!
And now it's time!

[Chorus x2]

How far will our vengeance take us?
To our own demise...
How far will our vengeance take us?

Bloodlust!
Bloodlust!
Bloodlust!
Bloodlust!

[Chorus]

We are the living dead!

Another Night (Wishing I Wasn't Here) Lyrics – atreyu

[Bonus song]

Alone! Empty, and searching again
I don't see any other way...
The brave! Hollow, and brake again
I don't feel anything but pain...

I dream of numbness
To ease the pain
I beg for sleep
To take.. to take me away!

Another night
Another empty avenue
Is waiting for you
And calling me
Another night
Another empty boulevard
Is waiting for you
And calling me

Desperate, clear
Quiet thin air
I feel that this is all in vain...
Beating for change
Empty, Cold, Stir

I dream of numbness
To ease the pain
I beg for sleep
To take, to take me away

Another night
Another empty avenue
Is waiting for you
And calling me
Another night
Another empty boulevard
Is waiting for you
And calling me

Lift, More
Lift, More, Bear
Lift, More, Bear, Sleep
To keep me up at night

[Whispering:]
I dream of numbness...
To ease the pain...
I beg for sleep...
Take me away...

Another night
Another empty avenue
Is waiting for you
And calling me
Another night
Another empty boulevard
Is waiting for you
And calling me

Calling me
It's calling me
Calling me
It's calling me

Doomsday Lyrics – atreyu

Go
A rush of blood
To my head leaves me winded and wanting
To feel the weakness in my body
Beaten and crushed like my soul
I walked the streets flirting death
But I never kissed back
I'm so lucky so cursed so fucked up
But that's the way that it goes
Its the ebb and the flow
I wish that I could give you my time
Give you my time

Seems that doomsday has come early this year
The last angel has gone
I can't remember the last time I cried
The last angel has gone home

The memories stacking up
And they pull at my guts
What do I have to do to end it
The better days hacked away
Leaving me only pain
This regret is never ending
But in the blink of an eye
This life passes you by
I wish that I could give you my time
Give you my time

Seems that doomsday has come early this year
The last angel has gone
I can't remember the last time I cried
The last angel has gone home

I can't remember
I can't remember
I can't remember the last time I cried

Seems that doomsday has come early this year
The last angel has gone
I can't remember the last time I cried
The last angel has gone home

Honor Lyrics – atreyu

Resolute a stance of defiance
Always teetering on the brink
Nothing can hold you back when
When you're not holding back a thing
Open arms we embrace tomorrow
Closed fists, tarnishing today
We're not afraid to open our mouths and scream
We believe in what we say

[chorus:]
Like a whisper to the dusk
An oath against the shadows
Denying the dark
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'til the break of dawn
Like a prayer unto the dawn
In arms against the shadows
Destroying the dark
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'til the break of dawn

Covered in sweat and blood
Yet still our heads held high
Actions have consequences
When you life for foolish pride
Been careful not to lose ourselves
Stand together one passion, one hate
We believe in a better tomorrow
We believe in what we say

[chorus:]
Like a whisper to the dusk
An oath against the shadows
Denying the dark
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'til the break of dawn
Like a prayer unto the dawn
In arms against the shadows
Destroying the dark
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'til the break of dawn
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'til the break of dawn

We'll fight out battles we'll wage our wars
Settle the scores with honor and blood
We'll wear our scars like medals of hope
Like medals of hope
Like medals of hope
We'll fight out battles we'll wage our wars
Settle the scores with honor and blood
We'll wear our scars like medals of hope
Like medals of hope
Like medals of hope

[chorus:]
Like a whisper to the dusk
An oath against the shadows
Denying the dark
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'til the break of dawn
Like a prayer unto the dawn
In arms against the shadows
Destroying the dark (whisper to the dusk)
In arms against the shadows
Destroying the dark (whisper to the dusk)
In arms against the shadows
Destroying the dark (whisper to the dusk)
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'til the break of dawn
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'til the break of dawn
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'til the break of dawn
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT 'til the break of dawn

Falling Down Lyrics – atreyu

You're always looking back,
runnin' from the past.
You're always sweating me about the next big heart attack.
You're lookin' over your shoulder starin' down the path.
(I'm fallin' down)
Fallin' down
Fallin' down

It's in your head all the voices mistaken,
shake it off shake it off.
We're all dyin' in the end.

[Chorus x2]

I terrorize me images so horrible,
so horrible
To clear my thoughts I drill a hole into my skull
clean up my brains and sweep them underneath the rug
I need them more than I needed any other drug
I'm fallin' down
fallin' down
fallin' down

It's in your head all the voices mistaken
shake it off shake it off
we're all dyin' in the end.

[Chorus x2]

Hey, hey, hey
Come on

I'm fallin' down
fallin' down
fallin' down

It's in your head all the voices mistaken
shake it off shake it off
we're all dyin' in the end

It's in your head all the voices mistaken
shake it off shake it off
we're all dyin' in the end

Becoming The Bull Lyrics – atreyu

Come on!!!
Grab the bull by the horns the old adage goes.
Nobody tells you where to go from here.
Seems like fates pulling you.
Decisions have to be made.
The the best path is the hardest earned.
Back and forth the struggle consumes us all.
Trying to keep a level head.
In the most unsettling of times.
Today I'll become the bull.
There is so much to stake.
I stumble, I lose my place.
Pride and arrogance surrounded by sin.
Destiny takes its hold.
Fight it or let it go.
But I choose how the day will end.
Back and forth the struggle consumes us all.
Trying to keep a level head.
In the most unsettling of times.
Today I'll become the bull. [x2]
This walk can get lonely
I lose myself inside my head.
No one can touch you when you're outside staring in.
Remove myself from this rat race.
Back and forth the struggle consumes us all.
Trying to keep a level head.
The most unsettling of times.
Today I'll become the bull. [x5]

When Two Are One Lyrics – atreyu

Bang!
Explosions in my head that just won't quit
A train has crashed into the wall around my heart
And left the old me dead, obliterated.

Stop!
My breathing in the night when you're not there
The silence ringing through my ears
And all I want to do is hear your voice
But you're not there

Drawn together
Painter's brush stoke
Sleight of hand we
We won't go up in smoke
Fates colliding
Love undying

[Chorus (2x):]
Like the rising tide
Beating hearts grow but never die
To simplify
I'll stand by your side
Close my eyes
Hope will never die

[Instrumental Break]

Go!
And take away the pain of being me
Soothe my soul, caress my heart
And end my fear, all my bad memories
Eradicated

Ring!
Like gunshots herd against the silent night
My love is louder than these words.
They're stronger than the rest, unstoppable
Unstoppable

Drawn together
Painter's brush stoke
Sleight of hand we
We won't go up in smoke
Fates colliding
Love undying

[Chorus (2x)]

DIE......

Drawn together
Painter's brush stoke
Sleight of hand we
We won't go up in smoke
Fates colliding
Love undying

[Chorus 2x]

DIE......

Yeah.........

Lose It Lyrics – atreyu

Standing on the edge,
battle in my head,
I'm dying to know
I'm dying to know

If I take this leap,
to fail or succeed,
I'm dying to know
I'm dying to know

This is it I'm shaking.
My body's aching,
I lose my hold,
I will let go.
This is it, I'm falling.
My wings need to grow.
I lose my hold,
I will let go.

There's so many roads,
pitfalls filled with doubt.
I'm dying to know,
I'm dying to know.

Grabbing what I need,
Grip until it bleeds.
I'm dying to know,
I'm dying to know.

This is it, I'm shaking.
My body's aching,
I lose my hold,
I will let go.
This is it, I'm falling.
My wings need to grow.
I lose my hold,
I will let go.

(Bum, Bum, Bum, Bum, Bum, Bum, Bum, Bum, Bum, Bum, Bum, Bum, Bum, Bum, Bum, Bum, Bum, Bum, Bum)

If I,
If I take this, this leap,
will I be broken?
I'm dying to know

This is it, I'm shaking.
My body's aching,
I lose my hold,
I will let go.
I lose my hold,
this is it I'm falling.
I lose my hold,
my wings need to grow,
I lose my hold,
I will let go
I will let go.

I will let go!

No One Cares Lyrics – atreyu

(I'm so tired)

All riled up, I can taste the winter.
I would shut up, if I thought that it mattered.

That's what it feels like,
when you're stitched into the skin.
I feel stuck, and no one thinks something's missing.
(Something's missing)

No one cares, no one listens,
screaming words that you fake hearin'.
No one cares, no one listens anymore
(No one listens anymore)

My eyes burn as I bury how I'm feelin'
close my eyes it's my life that I've been stealing
if it's all right, why do I feel a sense of longing
I had it all, and yet I thought that something's missin'
something's missing

No one cares, no one listens
screaming words that you fake hearin'
no one cares
no one listens anymore

[Chorus x2]

So paranoid I've been hiding from the sun
I'm tired of being afraid of everything and everyone
Oh, so tired

No one cares, no one listens
screaming words that you fake hearin'
no one cares
no one listens anymore

[Chorus x3]

Can't Happen Here Lyrics – atreyu

[Verse 1]
Chariots clashed in the dead of night
Subversiveness clouds the clearest of minds
Blink of an eye we're collateralized
Raised up in arms never knowing why

[Pre-Chorus:]
We get what we take when we take nothing
Pull the helmet from your eyes
We're erased and betrayed by mistakes

[Chorus:]
Does your god know my god?
This is how the world will end.

[Verse 2]
And it begs the questions
When bullets cloud the sky
Taking away the pain of
Thinking for ourselves
Demons beat down
They beat down our doors
And it begs the question
Could this scene be real
Stealing away our children
Taking away our dreams!

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

Slow Burn Lyrics – atreyu

It begins with a dark glowing ember,
something black burning it's way out of me.
Searing the flesh,
pain is the only thing I feel,
scars all I see.

Oh no the fire's burning my insides again,
what can I do to silence my desire tonight?
Flames consuming reason leaving only ashes left
you will catch me for regretting my decision,
I can't keep telling myself what I want to hear,
I can't just close my eyes.

I know that it's killing me,
and it's poisoning the best in me,
but I say, I don't want to believe.
what I see, I don't want to believe.
So let me tell you more (tell you more)
about the lies I lead.

That is how I choose to douce the flames in gasoline
Broken teeth replace the blackout memories in my head
Wreckage from the past haunts me, shake me to the bone (to the bone)
I know it's over but I can't go home tonight.

But after this I feel as empty as the night before,
feel the pain and yet I'm still begging for more.
Masochistic, nihilistic, urging backward thought
My life's a mess and I can't find a way to fix it.

I can't keep telling myself what I want to hear,
I can't just close my eyes
(my eyes, my eyes, my fucking eyes)

I know that it's killing me,
and it's poisoning the best of me,
What I see, I don't want to believe.
So let me tell you more, tell you more,
about the lies I lead.

Calling, calling out.
The darkest reaches of my soul,
are riddled with self-doubt.
Crawling, crawling out,
my will to fight will more than suffice,
when others would lay down.

It's only as dark as you make it.

I know that it's killing me,
and it's poisoning the best of me,
but I say, I don't want to believe.
So let me tell you more, tell you more
about the lies I lead.

Blow Lyrics – atreyu

So fuckin' blow those words out the back of your head,
I've heard it all and I'm done with that shit,
You tell me lies, and you get what you get,
so blow those fuckin' words out the back of your head.

Oh my god did you just hear
lies are coming back in style?
Oh my god this seems so real that they find you,
and confine you

So shut your mouth, we've heard it all.
Hypocrite's and critics all
can fuck off we do this for our souls,
our souls.

What they say, won't make us go away.

So fuckin' blow those words out the back of your head,
I've heard it all and I'm done with that shit,
You tell me lies,
and you get what you get,
so blow those fuckin' words out the back of your head.

We're not sorry and we won't conform.
It's not our choice but something inborn.
If we fail followin' are hearts
can you blame us? (No, no, no)

A square peg in a black hole
We don't fit in that's the way it goes.
You should of not thought you're better than us,
no, you're not.
(No, no, no)

What they say, won't make us go away.

So fuckin' blow those words out the back of your head,
I've heard it all and I'm done with that shit,
You tell me lies,
and you get what you get,
so blow those fuckin' words out the back of your head.

So fuckin' blow those words out the back of your head,
I've heard it all and I'm done with that shit,
You tell me lies,
and you get what you get,
so blow those fuckin' words out the back of your head.
(Blow, blow, blow)
Blow those fuckin' words out the back of your head.

Tell yourself yourself you're not alone at all.
(Looking out your window, know you're all alone)
Oh, tell yourself you're not alone at all. (At all)
(Staring out your window, know you're alone)

What they say, won't make us go away.
Go away, go away, go away.

So fuckin' blow those words out the back of your head,
I've heard it all and I'm done with that shit,
You tell me lies,
and you get what you get,
so blow those fuckin' words out the back of your head.

So fuckin' blow those words out the back of your head,
I've heard it all and I'm done with that shit,
You tell me lies,
and you get what you get,
so blow those fuckin' words out the back of your head.
(Blow, blow, blow)
Blow those fuckin' words out the back of your head.
(Of your head, of your head, of your head)
Yea!

Lead Sails (And A Paper Anchor) Lyrics – atreyu

Marching alone, like a good soldier does
I'm setting sail, with anchors holding me down
Pack up my bags, stow them away
I'm bidding farewell to all that is safe

Will I come up for air, come up for air
After awhile the current is calling me
Lulling me, waving goodbye
I'm out here alone, oh God can you save me now?
Sinking my heart turns to stone

Withering away, a shrinking violet dies
So full of life, these lights have dried me out
Into the sea, I needed a drink
I never thought this would consume me whole

Will I come up for air, come up for air
After awhile the current is calling me
Lulling me, waving goodbye
I'm out here alone, oh God can you save me now?
Sinking my heart turns to stone
(I turn to stone)
Sinking my heart turns to stone
Save me, take me home
Over and over again
Save me, take me home
Wishing that this all would end
Save me, take me home
Over and over again
Save me, take me home
Wishing that this all would end

After awhile the current is calling me
Lulling me, waving goodbye
I'm out here alone, oh God can you save me now?
Sinking my heart turns to stone
After awhile the current is calling me
Lulling me, waving goodbye
I'm out here alone, oh God can you save me now?
Sinking my heart turns to stone
Sinking my heart turns to stone

Save me take me home
When I come up for air
Save me take me home
When I come up for air
Save me take me home
Over and over again
Save me take me home

Wishing that all this would end

The Squeeze Lyrics – atreyu

Sometimes it feels like the juice is just one, hell of a squeeze.
I'm wringing it out my hands, drinking in my agony.
I love this shit and I hate this shit, I need it just to survive.
I've served my time, I've earned my keep, and now I'm taking what's mine
(And only I can stop me)

[Chorus:]
So what is it that you were fighting for?
Is it something that's worth dying for?
Look me in the eyes, don't tell me.
Is it in your heart, what your striving for?
A painful lesson learned is worth so much more (so much more).
Can you open up your eyes and see?

All of our lives we ask ourselves is this really what's meant for us,
take a cold hard look at youself, it takes heart to face your reality.
I can, I cannot give two shits about your self doubt, when it's time to rise
I won't sell myself out (I won't sell myself out).

[Chorus]

And doubt falls away, like pages in a good book like an autumn leaf's decay.
And doubt falls away, like sand in an hourglass the end of a perfect day.

And doubt falls away, like pages in a good book like an autumn leaf's decay.
And doubt falls away, like sand in an hourglass

[Solo]

[Chorus]

Epic Lyrics – atreyu

[Faith No More Cover]

Can you feel it, see it, hear it today?
If you can't, then it doesn't matter anyway
You will never understand it cause it happens too fast
And it feels so good, it's like walking on glass
It's so cool, it's so hip, it's alright
It's so groovy, it's outta sight
You can touch it, smell it, taste it so sweet
But it makes no difference cause it knocks you off your feet

You want it all but you can't have it

It's cryin', bleedin', lying on the floor
So you lay down on it and you do it some more
You've got to share it, so you dare it
Then you bare it and you tear it

You want it all but you can't have it
It's in your face but you can't grab it

It's alive, afraid, a lie, a sin
It's magic, it's tragic, it's a loss, it's a win
It's dark, it's moist, it's a bitter pain
It's sad it happened and it's a shame

You want it all but you can't have it
It's in your face but you can't grab it

What is it?
It's it
What is it?...

Clean Sheets Lyrics – atreyu

[Bonus Track]

[Descendents cover]

Clean sheets mean a lot,
To a guy who sleeps on the floor,
I wanted your love,
An a shelf in your dresser draw,
You tucked me in,
Stopped my tossing and turning,
But I turned back the covers,
And saw those sheets are dirty.

[Chorus:]
Even though you'll never come clean,
You know it's true,
Those sheets are dirty,
And so are you.

The warmth of a bed,
To a guy that sleeps on the floor
was enough to perpetuate.
All the lies I heard before,
I want to hold you,
I hold my pillow instead
Because my pillow will never lie
Or be with a stranger in my bed.

[Chorus]

Where's the love I was looking for?
It's out the door.
I'm afraid to see you anymore,
So it's back on the floor,
'cause those sheets are dirty.

Woke up this morning,
Alone on the floor,
Thinking about those clean sheets
And the way it was before,
When I looked in the mirror,
I saw your face and thought of the past,
But now I know how dirty you are,
I took my fist and smashed the glass.

[Chorus x2]

Those sheets are dirty. [x3]

Creature Lyrics – atreyu

Go
Run away
In Distress
Try To Hide
From What's Creeping And Crawling And Stabbing Within
Try To Deny
The Turmoil Inside
If You Fight Yourself Hard Enough You'll Never Win
Any Ounce Of Serenity
Or A Calm Hope At Best
(Or A Calm Hope At Best)
Can leave you heaving on the floor
Gasping for breath (Are You Gasping For Breath?)
To Be Left On The Floor Gasping For Breath!

[Chorus:]
You're either the person you are
Or The Person Your Trying, Trying, Trying, Trying To Be
Don't let the outside sway too far
From where you want to be

And at any cruel moments Of This
You Can ruin The Best
Where's Your Body is Brutally Pressed
Against The Confines Of Your tense Flesh

And If You Close Your Eyes Tight Enough
Then None Of The Bad Can Get In [x2]
And If You Close Your Eyes Tight Enough
Then None Of The Light Can Get In (Then None Of The Light Can Get In)

Boom
You scream as the light hits you
It radiates though out your whole soul
Boom
The pain is clarity
It cleanses, and if it still fucking hurts than you still fucking know
That You Are Still Alive
That You Are Still In Control
If you would only take hold
Boom
The day with both hands
A death grip
And a good chance to outlive your past
You are living free
Where You Will Be Free [x2]

[Chorus x2]

Shameful Lyrics – atreyu

You should have ran for days
You embrace you betray
I am sick to say
You're a sad clich�
But when you ran you tripped and fell
On a path that lead you straight to hell
This is my salt in your wounds
This is my "I TOLD YOU SO"

If You Knew What I Know
Would You Move Like You Do?
With malicious Discontent
You went about hell-bent to destroy
But did you have a reason why?

[Chorus:]
Here's to lowering caskets
Of old friends
Choice and consequence
We'll birth a new day
With the death of an old and
Start over, Start over.
Here's To Burying Hatchets in Those
Who You'd Never Call Your Friend..
We'll Birth A New Day With The Death Of An Old Day And..
Start Over! Start Over!

Can You Breathe In Reach And Let It Out
Thee Evil Inside that's eating you out tonight
With Every Venomous Move I Will Suck You Up And Spit You
Get Out Of My Life, Get Out Of My Sight!

[Chorus]

You Let Yourself Get Carried Away
Don't Act Like Your Ashamed
You Let Yourself Get Carried Away
Bow your head now, accept the blame
You Let Yourself Get Carried Away
Bury this with you, a waste
And Now It's Time To See
What You Don't Mean To Me

Now it's time to see
What you don't mean to me
Now it's time to see
What you don't mean to me

Here's to lowering caskets
Of old friends
Choice and consequence
We'll birth a new day
With the death of an old and
Start over, Start over.
Here's To Burying Hatchets in Those
Who You'd Never Call Your Friend..
We'll Birth A New Day With The Death Of An Old Day And..

Our Sick Story (Thus Far) Lyrics – atreyu

And we danced
So Pristine and
Knee deep in sin
Balls deep in hate (I see your face)
I see your face
And it tears me apart
It tears me up
My mouth is full of love
My head is held in shame

[Chorus:]
When you kiss me
Do you still taste her?
Are you thinking of...?
Are you thinking of me?
With your lips pressed tightly up against his skin
Does your body still scream my name?
Does your body still scream my name?

Hold your breath
Keep it in
Trapped with secrets
'Til you're turning cold blue with guilt
Still no blood to spilt
Had I seen the plot twists coming?
Would I have checked out the book?
And even if I was dead
You would never be off the fucking hook.

[Chorus]

Can You Take It While I Fake It [x2]

[Solo]

Cross your heart, false your heart [x2]

[Chorus ("Press Your Heart, Fuck Your Heart" throughout)]

Cross your heart, false your heart [x2]

The Theft Lyrics – atreyu

He bends and he breaks
If he gives they will take away
His passion, his pain, his grace

He exhales,
A thousand black flowers explode
Into butterflies as they're away

[Chorus:]
Rip them out, take them,
Burn to coals as they crush and leave nothing
That resembles a soul of a man
See him numb, see him crushed (see him numb, see him crushed)
Rip them out, take them
Burn to coals as they crush and leave nothing
That resembles a soul of a man
Leave them numb, leave them crushed (leave them numb, leave them crushed)

Took the fire inside
One too many times
He's burning over and out now,
He flails
Up against the raging tides,
No more fights
Everything you ever wanted to see,
See it in his eyes
One more time, one more time

Climb down to test the waters,
My hands feel like they're rusting away, yeah, yeah, yeah,
So I'll pace around like a lamb before the slaughter
I'll stay here as long as you let me,
Decision's been made obvious so I will return
Where I started I'll stay here
When I'm finished I'll whither away

[Chorus]

We Stand Up Lyrics – atreyu

I've watched the sun go dancing fall
And watched the night reign
Please note that casual
Observers are always the first to go
So this is for me and the boys
We'll always play our part
To kick and scream
To be the ones you hate to love
I can never turn my back because this is all I know
You know all that is the truth
We are all we have
In a world that corrupts the strongest soul
You know all that is the truth.

If you blink don't do it twice
I've still got something to say here.
I will bare my heart to expose my soul.
If honesty has a price then I won't fucking pay dear.
We will take our dreams straight to the grave.

Go choke on this
And on my words,
And on us,
And on my honesty.
It's of no consequence
Because I've seen the opulence.
The beauty I've held in my eyes
If only for seconds
Words will never take away
What we have built together
With our hands, with our hearts, with our minds.

If you blink don't do it twice
I've still got something to say here.
I will bare my heart to expose my soul.
If honesty has a price then I won't fucking pay dear.
We will take our dreams straight to the grave.

If this is just in our heads then
Then we'll keep on living our perfect lie
One day at a time
God bless our cheating hearts
And damn your lies

If this just in our heads then
We'll keep on living our perfect lie
One day at a time
God bless us.

If you blink don't do it twice
I've still got something to say here.
I will bare my heart to expose my soul.
If honesty has a price then I won't fucking pay dear.
We will take our dreams straight to the grave.

Ex's And Oh's Lyrics – atreyu

You took me home
I drank too much
'Cause of you my liver turned to dust
Cold rust taste
A cruel creeping cold pain
Do you understand what I mean?
When you feel your soul drop to the floor
Like a hole
Like an open bleeding sore
Then you'll have bled like I bled
And you'll have wept as I've wept

Suck me down, it's time to rock and roll
Let's hit the bar, let's lose control
One false move, you took me home
One false move, you're all alone

But it looks so good and it feels so nice
I paid the price
I'll cut you out just to hear you scream,
Get away from, get away from me
And I can feel my heartbeat racing
As I realize what I must do
Get away from,
Get away from,
Get away from me

I should have turned and ran like hell
Last time I got the taste of you
I should have turned and ran like hell
And I'll see we're through
I should have turned and ran like hell
Last time I got the taste of you
I should have turned and ran like hell
And I'll see we're through
And I'll see we're through

You fell upon me like a plague
Weakness, sweet weakness
But I digress...
After all this...
You're just like all the rest

Suck me down
It's time to rock and roll
Let's hit the bar, let's lose control
One false move, you took me home
One false move, you're all alone

Your Private War Lyrics – atreyu

For my whole life, I have been burning down bridges
My only problem was foresight
I was standing on them, I never looked down
And now I am, knee deep in your bullshit
If you're ready for battle then I'm ready for war
So we can dance if you want lies

How easily we are deceived, how easily we believe lies

I will not run out of ammo, no more bowing my head
If every day is another slug, I will pull them out of my...
I will not run out of ammo, no more bowing my head
For every day is another slug, I will pull them out of my chest!

So raise your voices and hold your hopes up high!
Tell your stories, run your mouth, and tell your lies!

After all this time, don't wash my blood off of your hands
Let it crack and stain you, so the outside can match the in
Oh, does it make you the fucking toast of the town?
To pull yourself up, on those you're always putting down

So raise your voices and hold your hopes up high!
Tell your stories, run your mouth and tell your lies
So raise your voices and hold your hopes up high
Tell your stories, run your mouth and tell your...

You curse my name, burn down my house
As I bare my soul you cast your doubt, and I can live without

You're passing judgement (you're passing judgement)
With side long glances (with side long glances)
Am I splitting hairs or - do I dare to say? - you've had your chances
You're passing judgement, with side long glances
Am I splitting hairs or - do I dare to say? - you've had your chances

So raise your voices and hold your hopes up high!
Tell your stories, run your mouth and tell your lies
So raise your voices and hold your hopes up high
Tell your stories, run your mouth and tell your lies

Curse my name,
Curse my name,
Curse my name,
Curse my name,

Fuck!

My Fork In The Road (Your Knife In My Back) Lyrics – atreyu

So here we are again
The same fork in the road
I hate you. You love me
This story's getting old
The day that I opened up
You shut me out for good
Forgive, forget, fuck you
You are a liar and a whore

[Chorus:]
So take what you want and leave
You'll never get another part of

I remember the day that
I thought I would be free
I poured out my soul to you
Exposed everything
I take it out,
My heart's broke
My hand is much the same
I did my best to drink you away

[Chorus]

You are poison on man's lips
Lured in by the curves of your hips
Come here boy, stand by me
Look my way, have another drink

I should have got up...
I should have got up and left you

And I will never ever be your lover again
As far as I'm concerned, we are not even friends
This may not seem to subtle to you
The point I'm trying to make is we are completely through

[Chorus]

[Solo]

You are poison on man's lips
Lured in by the curves of your hips
Come here boy, stand by me
Look my way, have another drink

Untitled Finale Lyrics – atreyu

You put a bullet in my head
Turned black thoughts to red
This could all end in tragedy
I dream of your death,
Lay you down to rest
I won't look back in fond memory

But time marches on like a soldier, are you a killer?
I think I know what you are - a thief in the night
And though it's taken me so very long to figure you out
You're throwing stones, your glass castle is falling down
On top of your good times, I'm not interested in working this out

You put a bullet in my head
Turned black thoughts to red
This could all end in tragedy

And that's what you are, a sad plastic fucking mess
Don't come to me with how your tired, used up and just barely getting by
Because I would walk on by and not even,
Not even kick you when you're down,
Though you would deserve it because you are lower than the lowest dog
But this is the part where I say goodbye
And let the sands of time blow over us
Say goodbye, and let the sands of time blow over us

You've never had to crawl, you've never had to see,
What it feels like to be so trapped underneath

The weight of someone's world, comes crashing down on me
I was longing to be free, I put the bullet in you and me

[x5]
This is my farewell to you and I,
This will all end in tragedy

Woah, this will all end in tragedy. [x4 with fade out]

This will all end in tragedy [x3]

This will all end in tragedy.

Her Portrait In Black Lyrics – atreyu

[B-Side track]
[Underworld Soundtrack]

Hold your breath quiet now don't say a word
You could run (but) it won't do any good
Prayers forsaken when you lose faith inside
It's not time to die

Your life
Is it a lie
When you get what you're looking for
Your craves subside
Or will you crawl into
A casket
An early tomb
Lay down and give up inside
She'd rather die

When you fall
So spent from emotion
She is what
Brings you to your feet
Where challenges lie
On the verge of destruction
She pulls you back
And she gives you wings
(Death won't hold you as tight as she will)

Can you feel her
Running through your veins?
She will always live forever
(Can you bear the burden?)

Can you feel her
Running through your veins?
She will always live forever
(Can you bear the burden?)

You'll turn your back, you'll patronize
She's pleading
You will question your every want
She's bleeding out
She's bleeding out
She's bleeding out

Death won't hold you as tight as she will

Can you feel her blood run through your veins?
She will always live forever
(Can you bear the burden?)
Can you feel her burning through your veins?
She will always live forever

[Guitar Solo]

She's bleeding out
She's bleeding out
She's bleeding out

[Heart beat gradually slows]

Death won't hold you as tight as she will

Can you feel her running through your veins?
She will always live forever
(Can you bear the burden?)
Can you feel her running through your veins?
She will always live forever
(Can you bear the burden?)

Can you feel her running through your veins?
She will always live forever
(Can you bear the burden?)
Can you feel her running through your veins?
She will always live forever
