I think I'm alone now I'm here on my own No one can help me I suffer alone I'm in a low place I can't break away I'm locked inside of this prison And here I will stay

Oppression 03:41
Push me down I won't get up again Push me down And I'll stay down I'm oppressed I am oppressed On my knees I can't be free On my knees Living on my knees I'm oppressed I am oppressed I'm oppressed (on my knees) I am oppressed (push me down)

So Far Away 03:15
Wallow in the gloom A weighted tension's in the air Hollow eyes that look right through me Like I'm not there There's a gulf as far as I can see And that's the space between you and me Everything's so far away So far What's this strange company we keep As we wait for the shoe to drop Muted actions, silent words The battle not fought There's a gulf as far as I can see And that's the space between you and me Everything's so far away So far In frozen isolation With a statue's mouth I cannot speak Can't say what I needed to say The moment's lost There's a gulf as far as I can see And that's the space between you and me Everything's so far away So far

Too Late 02:50
You spineless coward You know you're wrong Yet you stand behind your craven words Pledging fealty Criminal activity Pathetic sheep amongst the herd You had your chance You didn't take it Blood on your hands You should've stopped it No more integrity Selling out your soul Fanning the flames of righteous anger Don't feign surprise When it turns on you Chaos can't stop once it starts moving You had your chance You didn't take it Blood on your hands You should've stopped it Too Late Now Your self destruction Ship is going down You cannot stop the rot within You had your chance You didn't take it Blood on your hands You should've stopped it Too Late Now

It's over now The dream has died You had a good run Can't keep it alive It's over now The lies that you sold The shine is gone No more brave and the bold Everything falls apart in the end Cities tumble and empires crumble Everything falls apart again History repeats History repeats It's over now There's no where to go The daylight is fading It's the end of the show Everything falls apart in the end Cities tumble and empires crumble Everything falls apart again History repeats History repeats

First was the word And the word was good Or so the fable goes You do the work The work of the lord Take it to new lows Forgive me father for you have sinned Touched by the hand of god First was the word And the word was good Or so the fable goes You do the work The work of the lord Taken to new lows Forgive me father for you have sinned Touched by the hand of god Turn the cheek and look away Turn the cheek and look away Let us pray Let us prey He died for us so you could sin He died for us so you could sin He died for us so you could sin He died for us so you could sin

Who am I really They all see through me They all know that I know nothing at all Can I keep faking This self affliction Another day goes by behind my wall Imposter imposter Space invader Get out of my head Imposter imposter Space invader Can't get it out of my head Who am I fooling No skill at lying If I stay quiet then it all stays the same When will they find out I don't belong here Another fool hiding in my name Imposter imposter Space invader Get out of my head Imposter imposter Space invader Can't get it out of my head

I don't need a friend I've got this one Where there's a will It can be done If you could, you would Taste the spoon If you could I know you would Taste the spoon Taste the spoon I don't need a friend It's best on my own Don't leave the house It can be done alone I'm self sufficient One of the chosen few And if you could I know you would too If you could, you would Taste the spoon If you could I know you would Taste the spoon Taste the spoon

Yeah Days and days of repetition Every day's the same You rolled the dice and now regret it Every roll's the same Maybe it would have been better But now you'll never know And the more you try to fight it Some things never change There's no point to anything You might as well just give up We're all going to go out just the same One more day around the sun Tomorrow might be different There are no rules Just play the game Play the game Yeah You think you've got it figured out But everyone's the same You think you have the final answer But you're not the only one One day the veil will be removed And you'll see the joke No one will be laughing at you You'll be laughing too There's no point to anything You might as well just give up We're all going to go out just the same One more day around the sun Tomorrow might be different There are no rules Just play the game Play the game

Sometimes these things they never fade away This never ending press of days We carry on as though we have more time to go But time is short and that is all we know Didn't have the wings so I never learned to fly Earthbound and yearning as I look up to the sky All of the could have beens, the choices never made Come crashing down upon me wave after wave A perfect moment that never, ever came Sometimes I think of the things that went away The moments shared but now are gone The bitter sting of memory and loss remains Those days have passed and what was once moved on Didn't have the wings so I never learned to fly Earthbound and yearning as I look up to the sky All of the could have beens, the choices never made Come crashing down upon me wave after wave A perfect moment that never, ever came Some days I think of you Sometimes it's hard

Something is wrong with the world Something is wrong with the world Make it stop Make it stop Something is wrong with the world Something is wrong with the world Something is wrong with the world Make it stop So I can get out Something is wrong with the world I never, never ever asked for this I never, never ever asked for this I never, never ever asked for this Disconnect Disconnect
