The Lost Carnival 04:07
lyrics

It’s a hazy day and it won’t be the last Look at the fun erased by the blast Trees on rooftops and booths wilted by floods Rats and roaches scavenge through the dust Toy dolls in pieces, oh look at the fun Dirty prizes, who wants one? Frozen in time, cars tethered by vines The Ferris wheel runs, but hasn’t moved in some time Join us at the fun fair A toxic past fills the land and the air Join us at the fun fair Put on your gas mask and we’ll take you there Weeds and grass growing through the walkways Follow in the footsteps that the soldiers made No hand in hand by mother and child No sugar induced, cotton candy smiles Join us at the fun fair A toxic past fills the land and the air Join us at the fun fair Put on your gas mask and we’ll take you there Epidemic to desertion Paved the path to desolation Under government assertion A life of isolation Join us at the fun fair A toxic past fills the land and the air Join us at the fun fair Put on your gas mask and we’ll take you there Join us at the fun fair A toxic past fills the land and the air Join us at the fun fair Put on your gas mask and we’ll take you there

Wake Up! You're Not Dead Yet 03:41

Hey you, been beat down You’re face flat on the ground Blood pools ‘round your head Your last breath, you’re close to it How did you end up this way? You know you’re turning blue And it’s time to face the truth Claw back away from death Head’s up, this is just a test Don’t you let it end this way! Even though the time has slowed Wake up! No, you’re not dead yet Open your eyes, rise and rise Wake up! No, you’re not dead yet Crack, crack open your eyes And look out into the night Alone just you and me We’re two voices, but one psyche Don’t you dare give up this way! It’s time to make our move The last chance, it’s up to you Vengeance that is the plan To plot revenge; let’s get even You know it’s really the only way! Even though the time has slowed Wake up! No, you’re not dead yet Open your eyes, rise and rise Wake up! No, you’re not dead yet Come on; get up on your feet Are you with me? Use your rage to elevate Are you with me? Even though the time has slowed Wake up! No, you’re not dead yet Open your eyes, rise and rise Wake up! No, you’re not dead yet Even though the time has slowed Wake up! No, you’re not dead yet Open your eyes, rise and rise Wake up! No, you’re not dead yet Wake Up!!

Whiskey King 04:32

Morning comes too early, my eyes burn in my skull A tough fight against the night, I’m up against my own will Made up my list, my agenda…and now it’s ripped to shreds I’m fighting fires with no water, I throw my hands on my head 1 shot…here’s Johnnie 2 shots…sit back Jack 3 shots…let’s meet the Maker Another round; do I have any takers? 4 shots…it’s a Turkey shoot 5 shots…at the Old Crowe 6 shots…I tip my Crowne Tonight, I’m gonna be the king of the town The final seconds; the countdown begins to pull the plug on the day Who needs a bed, we’ll sleep when we’re dead; let’s hit the town, let come what may I want the day to get blurry, let’s head out for a drink Pour the whiskey, let’s get dizzy; come raise your glass with me 1 shot…here’s Johnnie 2 shots…sit back Jack 3 shots…let’s meet the Maker Another round; do I have any takers? 4 shots…it’s a Turkey shoot 5 shots…at the Old Crowe 6 shots…I tip my Crowne Tonight, I’m gonna be the king of the town 40 hours a week I work my fingers to the bone I want to crawl in that bottle and call it home 48 hours until last call Come one, get me some alcohol 1 shot…here’s Johnnie 2 shots…sit back Jack 3 shots…let’s meet the Maker Another round; do I have any takers? 4 shots…it’s a Turkey shoot 5 shots…at the Old Crowe 6 shots…I tip my Crowne Tonight, I’m gonna be the king of the town 1 shot…here’s Johnnie 2 shots…sit back Jack 3 shots…let’s meet the Maker Another round; do I have any takers? 4 shots…it’s a Turkey shoot 5 shots…at the Old Crowe 6 shots…I tip my Crowne Bartender, pour me another round

Feel the Burn 04:06
lyrics

Take my hand, child and walk with me Through the land of agony Follow me through the pain Each foot step will be more bloodstained Your soul will cry, your heart will ache Pay the toll and head through the gates Take my hand, child and walk with me Through the land of agony Can you smell the melting the flesh? Can you hear the souls in distress? The flames on flames, there’s nowhere to turn The pain on pain is what you deserve Your back is to black, there’s no return Trapped in chains to feel the burn Embers fall and flames rise Ashes rain, breathe in the despised Take my hand, Son and walk with me Through the land of agony Can you smell the melting the flesh? Can you hear the souls in distress? The flames on flames, there’s nowhere to turn The pain on pain is what you deserve Your back is to black, there’s no return Trapped in chains to feel the burn The flames on flames, there’s nowhere to turn The pain on pain is what you deserve Your back is to black, there’s no return Trapped in chains to feel the burn

I'm Down 04:09
lyrics

I never saw it coming It took me by surprise I never saw that ghost before my eyes It’s all smoke and mirrors Or a sleight of hand An age old magic trick that I can’t understand Boom! I’m down It hit me like a truck A head on collision, they say it’s a drug Boom! I’m down It hit me like a brick My mind is blown, I guess this is it I should have seen the warning Right in front of my face I guess I was too blind and was caught off base Hidden in the shadows Hard for me to see It came out of the darkness straight at me Boom! I’m down It hit me like a truck A head on collision, they say it’s a drug Boom! I’m down It hit me like a brick My mind is blown, I guess this is it I don’t know where it came from, I guess I had no clue If you don’t listen to me, it may get you too Boom! I’m down It hit me like a truck A head on collision, they say it’s a drug Boom! I’m down It hit me like a brick My mind is blown, I guess this is it Boom! I'm Down (x3) They say it's like a drug Boom! I'm Down (x3) I guess this is it!

Imperfect Perfection 03:11
lyrics

I’ve made mistakes, I’ll admit I’m a man, I’m not perfect And as for you…you feel the same Nothing is your fault and I am to blame It’s not my fault, it’s not my flaws But thank you for pointing them out to me It’s not my fault, you’ve got the disease Imperfect perfection don’t you see? The angry dark clouds above my head Were made by you and all the things that you did And now it’s time that I speak my mind I want to see tears coming from your eyes It’s not my fault, it’s not my flaws But thank you for pointing them out to me It’s not my fault, you’ve got the disease Imperfect perfection don’t you see? Perfection is only a concept Not unlike this song Even though you thought you were right How does it feel to be so wrong? It’s not my fault, it’s not my flaws But thank you for pointing them out to me It’s not my fault, you’ve got the disease Imperfect perfection don’t you see? It’s not my fault It’s not my fault

Hall of Mirrors 06:00

Turn on the lights and let the burn subside Did you imagine you’d end up like this? Every way you look you’re staring back at you Walk ahead, don’t think twice You don’t want to know the real truth Step by step, tread slow What’s ahead? Which way should you go? Look left, look right Your reflection shows that you’re confused Don’t trust your eyes and all the clones staring at you A hall of mirrors has spun you around You made your way in, but can’t find the way out A hall of mirrors revealing the truth No stones to throw, there’s no break through There’s no escape the answers lie within Did you know you’d have to make a choice like this? Choose the right, choose wrong Choose the left, the confusion won’t last too long No hand to lead, no key for the quiz I hope you studied all night for this To pass this test you need to see inside…yourself Look left, look right Your reflection shows that you’re confused Don’t trust your eyes and all the clones staring at you A hall of mirrors has spun you around You made your way in, but can’t find the way out A hall of mirrors revealing the truth No one to save you Look left, look right Your reflection shows that you’re confused Don’t trust your eyes and all the clones staring at you A hall of mirrors has spun you around You made your way in, but can’t find the way out A hall of mirrors revealing the truth No stones to throw, there’s no break through Look left, look right Your reflection shows that you’re confused Don’t trust your eyes and all the clones staring at you A hall of mirrors has spun you around You made your way in, but can’t find the way out A hall of mirrors revealing the truth No one to save you No one to save you (x4)
