I will never be home,
This town, this city, and these city fucking lights.
They blind me, they wont show me the way home.
If home is where my heart is,
Then I can't call this world home.
These burning seas,
Won't separate my heart,
Nor will they bring you back to me.
All oceans apart,
Another place another heart,
This place will never be home.
It's just a house not a home.
My mind's awake,
In this city that is always sleeping.
This is a house not a home.
I never meant to burn any bridges on the way.
My brothers in arms,
My friends 'til the end.
I know we'll get there again.
I will never call this city home,
Just a place to keep my head high.
But my hopes still stay low,
When this world's out to get me

Demons

The rain it comes,
Without no warning.
The troops they come,
But they aint singing.
Will you let me out alive?
And get me out alive?
Can you feel it in my bones?
These demons, they scare me.
They haunt me at night.
And I just can't seem,
To put up a fight.
They're gripped, 'round my neck.
And I just can't escape.
It wont ever end.
These demons, they scare me.
They haunt me at night.
And I just can't seem,
To put up a fight.
They're gripped, 'round my neck,
I just can't escape.
When will this end?
We're sinking, we're falling.
His minions are calling.
The wolves at the gates,
They claw at the gates.
They're gripped around my neck.
When will this end?
The wolves they claw,
At my gates doors.
These demons,
Are coming out tonight.
These demons,
They scare me.
They haunt me at night.
And I just cant seem, to put up a fight.
They're gripped 'round my neck.
When will this end?

The hunters take,
From the depths of our world.
Another token for another trophy wall,
Another token for their weight in gold.
I'll tell you that I've been to hell,
This world ain't much different.
Why can't we coexist?
I'll tell you that I've been to hell,
And this world's just the fucking same.
They're kicked when we're down,
They'll be pulled underground.
Take the light from the life,
And with the knife, take their life.
Onto these lands that were built from glass.
All this pointless suffering.
I'll tell you that I've been to hell,
This world aint much different.
Why can't we coexist?
I'll tell you that I've been to hell,
And this world's just the fucking same.
Why can't we coexist?
It's just the same.

Broken Walls

Another debt,
Another hole in the wall.
Another stupid fold,
For a comfortable loss.
We stare at blank walls.
And now I find myself,
Finding myself.
I'm only living in the past,
For hope of a better future.
We stare at a broken wall.
A broken wall, and a broken mind.
Now I'm not one,
For a stupid fucking love song.
Nor is this,
A fucking love song.
You were taken in a city of gold.
A son a brother and a selfless soul.
Being happy just aint what it seems.
A life in the ground with a heavy burden,
Seems like its just for me.
We lost you in the city of gold.
Get me away from here.
This life is so precious,
And so unforgiving.
All this makes me think,
That nothing will last forever.
We stare at broken walls.
There was a time where I gave a fuck,
But now I've just, run out of luck.
I'll hope for a better future,
It's so unforgiving.
Goodbye my friend.

Like vultures you fly,
And like locusts you'll take our lives.
You've sold our hearts and our homes,
To another fucking empty throne.
You're not selling lives,
You're just selling souls.
Can you find a way,
To make for all the callous you've caused and the broken stars?
Can you open your eyes and see what you've done?
An iron throne,
Doesn't make you fit for a king.
An iron throne,
Doesn't make you fucking king.
Like vultures you fly,
And like locusts you'll take our lives.
You've sold our hearts and our homes,
To another fucking empty throne.
You think that an empty throne,
Will make you king?
I'm not stupid, I'm just hopeful.
And when this hope's gone,
And I'm hopeless.
Can you find a way, to a better place?
Can you find a way,
To make for all the callous you've caused and the broken stars?
Can you open your eyes and see what you've done?
An iron throne,
Doesn't make you fit for a king.
You're not selling lives,
You're just selling souls.

In a place where failure echoes,
I've explored every crevice.
Nothing else sounds quite,
The fucking same.
And now you'll walk in circles,
Like blinded sheep.
And you'll still hold your head high,
And put your hope in belief.
Of a fucking martyr,
Who you still call your father.
For a man of the faith,
Who walked us down your halls.
He put his trust in you,
We fucking trusted you.
Forgive me father,
For you have sinned.
A hopeless soul,
In a serpents grip.
I've been left here before,
These mirrors and lights,
Are twisted memories.
Kaleidoscope: Over and over.
I wish I never existed.
