Change Our Ways 03:20
lyrics
buy track
Place the blame on me Your mistakes for eternity As I lose my head, the sight in my eyes Yet you refuse to go And our suspicions grow That we’re not safe here Cause you can’t see the way out Should’ve taken a step behind And we will be forced to fix this What happened to the world? To be forgiven would be sin Barricade this tragedy Show us the way to be cruel like you Chang Our Ways, to something new You’re just a parasite Obsessed with our stories When they’re not true Don’t trust that myth Yet we dig deeper down And my security is broken in two And we will be forced to fix this What happened to the world? To be forgiven would be sin Barricade this tragedy Show us the way to be cruel like you Chang Our Ways, to something new What happened to the world? To be forgiven would be sin Barricade this tragedy Show us the way to be cruel like you Chang Our Ways, to something new

At Night They Came For Me 05:00
lyrics
Did you miss me? As I keep you up And away From your safety To keep you from sleeping To keep you awake I know nothing about you so I want to talk But whenever we do I must bring out my claws I knew you wanted to be friends But my honesty convinces you, that you are not welcome here I will learn to fight those battles But I change your faithfulness Cause At Night We Came For You Switch these roles And where's my say, on how you make me see myself? Everyday is a war, with my own thoughts How I speak, how i talk, What is it for? To make me someone else, I don't know how our voices can hear each other anymore I knew you wanted to be friends But my honesty convinces you, that you are not welcome here I will learn to fight my battles But you changed my faithfulness Cause At Night They Came For Me When did I say, When did I say, you were saving me? You were saving me?! I knew you wanted to be friends But my honesty convinces you, that you are not welcome here I will learn to fight my battles But you changed my faithfulness Cause At Night They Came For Me When did I ever say that you were saving me? (Were saving me?) Tape my eyes shut So I won't see my reflection of what you've forced me to become

Broken Sky 02:56
lyrics
Let's get out, we're not ourselves here Let's escape, we don't seem human Let's break out, we'll find our comfort Our freedom is closer everyday But still so far away We're underneath a Broken Sky While my loved ones Repair my mind It's thundering down (Drowning me out) We're underneath a Broken Sky While my loved ones Repair my mind It's thundering down (Drowning me out) This place is mine, I cannot leave now I lock my door, so no-one enters You will not help, you can't see me like this My freedom is closer everyday (But still so far away) We're underneath a Broken Sky While my loved ones Repair my mind It's thundering down (Drowning me out) We're underneath a Broken Sky While my loved ones Repair my mind It's thundering down (Drowning me out)

Clockwork Heart 04:20
lyrics
It might be the case I've lost my senses It happens everyday But it's not news to us How can I help when I'm just a child? We see humanity better than you do Fix us My joins don't hold me Knocked down, I've seen to much Grow up And go somewhere new Charge us It's not so easy We have Moved on from the past I've lost my Clockwork Heart will you find it now? Cause we're all wanted Yet we fight for entertainment We fight to become strong Our minds simply collide I'll bide my time For my next move to rewind My time With no help at all Fix us My joins don't hold me Knocked down, I've seen to much Grow up And go somewhere new Charge us It's not so easy We have Moved on from the past I've lost my Clockwork Heart will you find it now? Will you find it? Will you find it? I don't think you see the way I don't think you see the way out I don't think you see the way I don't think you see the way out Fix us My joins don't hold me Knocked down, I've seen to much Grow up And go somewhere new Charge us It's not so easy We have Moved on from the past I've lost my Clockwork Heart will you find it?

Superior 05:37
lyrics
I’m so severely lost, who would want me around? I need to be loved, hear me behind glass walls Here I am again, I’m too selfish I’m not worth your memories I want to take care of myself I have this need to feel wanted Fight against my self slaughter I can’t force myself to be happy anymore We’re exhausted I tear away stars, further apart They can’t see each other because of me I’ll wait for you here until you come back Even though you don’t want me I’m not who you describe in your eyes I’m not that person you see I’m sorry there’s nothing special about my kisses, about the way I touch you. I’m sorry my body is blotched and bruised from myself. I’m sorry I wont ever be the naturally beautiful curiosity you so desperately need. I’m sorry I will never be the person you look up to. I’m sorry I will never truly make you happy like others did before you. I’m sorry for the ugliness in my head, it becomes habit when you tell yourself day in and day out that there is better out there. I’m sorry I don’t set alight your eyes so you’re burning to never see daylight. I’m sorry I’ll be the never-ending mistake whenever you think about me. I’m sorry my bravery is limited to the things I only know. I’m sorry I can’t speak when my words become a mixture of chemicals submerging my skin and weighing me down until I can’t crawl back up again. I’m sorry I wont be your delicate flower that you can show off to the class. I’ll never be that person you need. Infact, I need you now. I’m so irrevocably lonely and you wont ever see what I see, what I tell myself. Call me pathetic, it’s who I am Reach out for me my love, reach out We’re Superior Superior Reach out for me my lover Reach out

Erase 02:48
lyrics
What is troubling you? I know it never ends We create wars, to help us destroy Again I've seen far too much, for a child Destined to join No-one wins in a lifetime He stands up tall Head held high Promises to abide We will salute the carriages, that go on by When you return A frozen river across your face We can Erase No disgrace But will you die in vain?

Incandescence 02:50
lyrics
I am real Now don't call me fake People watch I should've known better, to not step outside I'm sorry There's just my body left behind I did not choose this I torture myself A mark on my skin to remind me Incandescence I am fire I feel warmth I am strong Incandescence I am fire I feel free I'll be just fine I am real Now don't call me fake People watch I should've known better To not step outside
