Don’t really care what you’re coming here for Subtlety, no such thing, all I want is more Can’t afford anything I pay for I don’t care, just pretend, don’t want this to end Ooo oo oo Forgot that I came here alone Ooo oo oo Let me know when you’re ready to go I’m finding out the truth And I feel brand new Dramatic mouths will move But it’s all for you And you, just tryna breakthrough Won’t keep it on the down low, keep it on the down low You’re in my car I never thought we’d ever get this far Now tell me what you like Your appetite, is driving me crazy Let it fly Ooo oo oo Forgot that I came here alone Ooo oo oo We’re changing just a little but stay, yeah I’m finding out the truth And I feel brand new Dramatic mouths will move But it’s all for you And you, just tryna breakthrough Won’t keep it on the down low, keep it on the down low Got nothing to regret Looking in review We won’t be giving up We will wait our cue For you, just tryna breakthrough Won’t keep it on the down low, keep it on the down low You’ve got me lured No longer bored I got this energy you crave Don’t tempt me with suggestion We will not subdue Don’t tempt me with suggestion I’m the one who’ll pay I’m finding out the truth And I feel brand new Dramatic mouths will move But it’s all for you And you, just tryna breakthrough Won’t keep it on the down low, keep it on the down low Got nothing to regret Looking in review We won’t be giving up We will wait our cue For you, just tryna breakthrough Won’t keep it on the down low, keep it on the down low

Pray 03:05
lyrics

Line by line We’re fed the insanity We’ll catch them dancing ‘round the fire at the grove Too little, too late Do you see me clearly now? I poured my insides out To disarm my lonely brain And I’ll sing a lullaby Before I say goodnight To make the bad men go away And I can’t take advice I’ve got paradise Until the sunrise Blush Look at us Not enough We are the lonely brains Quit acting so blasé Not really that insane Get in the line and pray Line by line Got beat up senselessly I guess we’re waiting for the old blood to dry Collide into me Two is better than one Bout time we double the fun Now the bad men want to play You gotta lot of nerve I reek of modesty Plant the seeds Watch them breathe Die and repeat It’s so sad to believe You think we’re so naive You dirty fucking thieves We are the lonely brains Quit acting so blasé Not really that insane Get in the line and pray You run a sick parade Cut out the masquerade Gun fighting over fame Get in the line and pray Now read and weep As the people who speak Are tied and weighed down to burdens Stuck under their feet Gifted with a piece of the insanity We mask it as misery Two buttons away from death Run and hide The tides aren’t changing Out of time There’s no redeeming Search the sky Where is the meaning? Get in the line and pray We are the lonely brains Quit acting so blasé Not really that insane Get in the line and pray You run a sick parade Cut out the masquerade Gun fighting over fame Get in the line and pray

Oblivion (ft. Death Tour) 03:27
lyrics

Lost with no alibi A knife left marks along my skin Praise for the coward Tell me where you end and I begin No subtlety This time I’ve got everything that I need Alone with my dark fascinations Not restricted to my dreams What you want is what I need Lucid but I cannot see This sudden fear has left me expired Paranoia, paranoia I pulled the trigger but it misfired Paranoia, paranoia Sent death on kin Imagination on ten Got the burnt flesh, Just cos a bitch sinned Damn, I just made a bad bitch bend Now my soul gon’ swim in oblivion Paranoid, demon dogs biting at my neck I can see my breath, cold sweat on my chest I cannot rest, panic and stress Manic behaviour, suicidal wreck Over my shoulder, cardiac arrest Looking for a saviour before it all ends What you want is what I need Lucid but I cannot see This sudden fear has left me expired Paranoia, paranoia I pulled the trigger but it misfired Paranoia, paranoia Keep roaming round my head I like the sound Take another bow Regret but don’t discount Brain hit the blitz Brain hit the blitz Brain hit the blitz And the clock gon’ tick Brain hit the blitz Brain hit the blitz Brain hit the blitz In oblivion Crawling out but gotta brave Gonna save me from my inhibition Looking over the edge Gonna save me from my enemies

Embrace You 02:57

I’m gonna embrace you And I won’t see through All the little lies you hold in your head I’m gonna embrace you And I really want you to Pick the pieces that you want to forget Let’s forget about the awful things, yeah Prima-donnas in the car wash scenes fear Their lives are going south and I can’t see What I don’t believe You’re in a mood I’m now repairing, I won’t fake another nightmare They keep on telling me that I don’t really care I swear I’m just doing my best Let me wear my dress and fuck the rest I’m gonna embrace you And I won’t see through All the little lies you hold in your head I’m gonna embrace you And I really want you to Pick the pieces that you want to forget Trust me for a second, I need to get my story straight In the dog days, we’ll get through Trust me for a second cos you’ve got me Loving we’ll encircle Loving we’ll encircle again Conscious And I’ll cover my distaste for you Slow dance I’ll get the gun out of my safe Now we can all be safe from you Don’t speak another word of fallacy, yeah You’re wearing your resentment for us all to bear I swear I’m just doing my best Let me wear my dress and you can fuck the rest I’m gonna embrace you And I won’t see through All the little lies you hold in your head I’m gonna embrace you And I really want you to Pick the pieces that you want to forget Trust me for a second, I need to get my story straight In the dog days, we’ll work through Trust me for a second cos you’ve got me Loving we’ll encircle Loving we’ll encircle again Trust me for a second, I need to get my story straight In the dog days, we’ll get through Trust me for a second cos you’ve got me Loving we’ll encircle Loving we’ll encircle again

Foolish 03:49

Gotta fall apart, to start again Sitting around but I just don’t get it You must stop faking, don’t pretend Don’t act up, I can see right through you Pulling away cos I just can’t stop Can you feel it fall apart? I can’t see you in the stars Told myself I wouldn’t start Now I broke your goddam heart Wish this feeling wouldn’t fade I will take this to my grave You must stop faking love, you can’t pretend I feel it inside my head I’m foolish Destroyed me and now I’m on the mend Take me on the town tonight, I’m lonely I’ll see you on the other side A one way ticket to the repeat of history You can’t afford it but you insist on sympathy Taking back all that we’ve made Leave it blank don’t fill the space Emptiness is taking shape Oh my god it’s deafening And I know that you’re gone And it won’t be long before you’re acting up Please excuse my tongue Cos it’s just not enough I feel it inside my head I’m foolish Destroyed me and now I’m on the mend Take me on the town tonight, I’m lonely I’ll see you on the other side I see all the light ahead I’m chasing Keep digging down and down again Leave me on ground tonight, I’m lonely I’ll see you on the other side Undo Did it hurt you To fall through I can’t help you When I feel new I will call you Only to say I’ll see you on the other side Don’t look back Don’t lose track of me Don’t look back Don’t look back I feel it inside my head I’m foolish Destroyed me and now I’m on the mend Take me on the town tonight, I’m lonely I’ll see you on the other side I see all the light ahead I’m chasing Keep digging down and down again Leave me on ground tonight, I’m lonely I’ll see you on the other side

Bloodshed 03:40
lyrics

Got a lot of things I wanna say I’ll keep them quiet just to please you I’m always busy elsewhere thinking Not sorry for anything I see far beyond the dashboard You think I’m lying but I don’t care This is driving me in circles I’ll meet you on the outside Rough hands Take chance It cannot hurt to try Not once I won’t give up Rest assured It’s worth all the bloodshed Rough hands Break chance We’ll make it in the end At last It’s over now Won’t deny It’s worth all the bloodshed Appearance covered by a sweet lie Please don’t dig, just let me get by I don’t know the touch of sunshine I can’t waste all this time Break the silence just to break down I’m sick of acting when you come around Oh shit, you haven’t heard this? I’ll show you what it’s all about I can’t loose, I’m in too deep I’ve always got a landmine beneath my feet And when the day comes that I can’t compete I wish for the ground to swallow me Don’t bat an eyelid You wouldn’t know I’ve been sleeping alone And you don’t understand And you can’t comprehend That this burden I share is real Rough hands Take chance It cannot hurt to try Not once I won’t give up Rest assured It’s worth all the bloodshed Rough hands Break chance We’ll make it in the end At last It’s over now Won’t deny It’s worth all the bloodshed You think this shit is gonna stay? You wait, everything will change Manifest it everyday until it’s running through my veins Rough hands Take chance It cannot hurt to try Not once I won’t give up Rest assured It’s worth all the bloodshed Rough hands Break chance We’ll make it in the end At last It’s over now Won’t deny It’s worth all the bloodshed

Bleed Yourself Dry 04:16
lyrics

My head is spinning round and around Contempt is building And I doubt I’ll stay Cos you’re not really having fun You’ll just bleed yourself dry Just wanna know why you’re acting tough You’ll just bleed yourself dry I don’t wanna run away And watch you fall Or start it all again Night’s over now You cannot hold me back I’ll start it all again Don’t wanna run away And watch you fall Or start it all again Night’s over now You cannot hold me back I’ll start it all again Don’t be so sure you’re on your own It’s hard enough to balance and control And I don’t wanna be another casualty The symptoms of a heartache are deafening In time, in time you’ll know I’ll always be here I’m here, yeah I don’t wanna run away And watch you fall Or start it all again Night’s over now You cannot hold me back I’ll start it all again Don’t wanna run away And watch you fall Or start it all again Night’s over now You cannot hold me back I’ll start it all again Cos you’re not really having fun You’ll just bleed yourself dry Just wanna know why you’re acting tough You’ll just bleed yourself dry When you change, I’ll be here waiting Cos you’re not really having fun You’ll just bleed yourself dry (or start it all again) Just wanna know why you’re acting tough You’ll just bleed yourself dry (bleed yourself dry) I don’t wanna run away And watch you fall Or start it all again Night’s over now You cannot hold me back
