1. FEED THE MACHINES

Turn around, they might be watching
And you never disappoint them
Hide your innocence before they see right through
You mustn't disappoint them

You need the danger just to feel your heart beat
You need to die just to find your identity
You need the knife just to know that you can bleed
You need the pain now just to feel anything

We fall in line
We live the lie
Give up, give up and feed the machine
It grows inside
Nowhere to hide
Give up, give up and feed the machine
Give up, give up and feed the machine

They pull you faster, the cadence calling
And you never fall behind
So choose a face your only calling out
You mustn't fall behind

You need another death just to have a life to save
You need a master just so you can beg
You need a light just because you're so afraid
Now bow down and learn to be a good slave

We fall in line
We live the lie
Give up, give up and feed the machine
It grows inside
Nowhere to hide
Give up, give up and feed the machine
Give up, give up and feed the machine

Go back to sleep(x2)

Wake up(x4)

We fall in line
We live the lie
Give up, give up and feed the machine
It grows inside
Nowhere to hide
Wake up, wake up and kill the machine

Wake up, wake up and kill the machine(x2)


2. FACELESS

A voice screaming from within
Begging just to feel again
Can't find who I am without you near me
I'd give anything to live
Cause without you I don't exist
Your the only one who saves me from myself
I abandoned this love and laid it to rest
And now I'm one of the forgotten

I'm not, I'm not myself
Feel like I'm someone else
Fallen and faceless
So hollow, hollow inside
A part of me is dead
Need you to live again
Can you replace this
I'm hollow, hollow and faceless

Shadows growing in my mind
Ones I just can't leave behind
I'm not strong enough to pay this ransom
One more monster crawled inside
But I swear I saw it die
Can you save me from the nothing I've become
I abandoned this love and laid it to rest
And now I'm one of the forgotten

I'm not, I'm not myself
Feel like I'm someone else
Fallen and faceless
So hollow, hollow inside
A part of me is dead
Need you to live again
Can you replace this
I'm hollow, hollow and faceless

I'm faceless
I'm hollow and faceless

We are the faceless
We are the nameless
We are the hopeless
Until we have faces

I'm not, I'm not myself
Feel like I'm someone else
Fallen and faceless
So hollow, hollow inside
A part of me is dead
Need you to live again
Can you replace this
I'm hollow, hollow and faceless

Faceless


3. LIE TO ME (DENIAL)

Tell yourself its over now
Try to kill a broken vow
If only you could find the strength to kill the memories
These empty pages never turn
You lit the flame and let them burn
You tried to bury me so deep what lies beneath

Will your hope die alone
Will you fade on your own
Can you just turn away and let me go

Lie to me
You can feel
That this love was never real
Walk away
You can learn to love again

Lie to me
You can leave
I'll still be here when you see
You're not alone
You don't have to run again
Leave me in denial

All your secrets crawl inside
You keep them safe, you let them hide
You feel them drinking in your pain to kill the memories
So close your eyes and let it hurt
The voice inside begins to stir
Are you reminded of all you used to be

Can you just turn away and let me go

Lie to me
You can feel
That this love was never real
Walk away
You can learn to love again

Lie to me
Watch me bleed
Cause I'll still be here when you see
You're not alone
You don't have to run again
Leave me in denial

All the pain you fed
Starts to grow inside
It lives again and you can't let it die
So you believe you'll never find
A reason to love again

Lie to me
And watch me bleed
I'll be here when you see
You're not alone
You don't need to run

Lie to me
Watch me bleed
Cause I'll still be here when you see
You're not alone
You don't have to run again
Leave me in denial

You can learn to love again
Leave me in denial
You can learn to love again
Leave me in denial


4. LET IT BURN

I watch the city burn
These dreams like ashes float away
Your voice I never heard
Only silence
Where were you when our hearts were bleeding
Where were you when it all crashed down
Never thought that you'd deceive me
Where are you now

How long can you stand the pain
How long will you hide your face
How long will you be afraid
Are you afraid
How long will you play this game
Will you fight or will you walk away
How long will you let it burn
Let it burn
Let it burn

I watch the city burn
These passions slowly smoldering
A lesson never learned
Only violence
Is your world just a broken promise
Is your love just a drop of rain
Will we all just burn our fire
Are you still there

How long can you stand the pain
How long will you hide your face
How long will you be afraid
Are you afraid
How long will you play this game
Will you fight or will you walk away
How long will you let it burn
Let it burn
Let it burn

Will you wait until it all burns down
Will you hide until it all burns down
Will it hurt when it all burns down
Will you fight when it all burns down

Will you stand when it all burns down
Will you love when it all burns down
Will it end when it all burns down
Will you just let it all burns down

How long can you stand the pain
How long will you hide your face
How long will you be afraid
Are you afraid
How long will you play this game
Will you fight or will you walk away
How long will you let it burn
Let it burn
Let it burn

Let it burn(x3)


5. BURIED BENEATH

My eyes have adjusted to dark and so is my heart
The weight of the world has covered me
I'm in over my head
Am I living or dead
Can anyone hear me calling out
I'm calling out

Finally breaking so where are you now
It's been such a long time
But I've tried to live without
I'm suffocating I need you to breathe
So reach down and pull me up
Pull me up before I am buried beneath

I built this house on the shore
All I want was more
But I felt the sand start shifting
I saw the cracks in the walls
I painted over them all
I tried my best to just ignore
I can't ignore

Finally breaking so where are you now
It's been such a long time
But I've tried to live without
I'm suffocating I need you to breathe
So reach down and pull me up
Pull me up before I am buried beneath

I Thought I was climbing out
But it's dragging me down
What's hidden here with me
Thought I was alone
But it pulls me deeper now
I can't escape

Finally breaking so where are you now
It's been such a long time
But I've tried to live without
I'm suffocating I need you to breathe
So reach down and pull me up
Pull me up before I am buried beneath


6. NOT ALONE

Slowly fading away
You're lost and so afraid
Where is the hope in a world so cold
Looking for a distant light
Someone who could save a life
You're living in fear that no one will hear your cries
Can you save me now

I am with you
I will carry you through it all
I won't leave you I will catch you
When you feel like letting go
Cause your not, your not alone

Your heart is full of broken dreams
Just a fading memory
And everything's gone but the pain carries on
Lost in the rain again
When will it ever end
The arms of relief seem so out of reach
But I, I am here

I am with you
I will carry you through it all
I won't leave you I will catch you
When you feel like letting go
Cause your not, your not alone

And I'll be your hope when you feel like its over
And I will pick you up when your whole world shatters
And when you're finally in my arms
Look up and see love has a face

I am with you
I will carry you through it all
I won't leave you I will catch you
When you feel like letting go
Cause you're not, you're not alone

And I will be your hope
And I will pick you up
And I will be your hope
And I will be your hope

Slow fading away
Your lost and so afraid
Where is the hope in a world so cold


7. WATCH YOU CRAWL

You put my back against the wall
Watching, waiting
You never thought I'd this far
Beneath your skin
I watched you swim with all your lies
That pulled you under
And as you wait for my demise
I'm just getting stronger

Learning who you really are
And nothing can save you

I will fight until the end
Get ready to collide
And I will watch you fall again
I'll bury you alive
You try to bring me to my knees
Trying to take it all
Now I will stand and watch you crawl

I'll put you back where you belong
Hopeless, fading
And I will rise while you become the monster you have fed
I'll let you drown in your despair
And now nothing can save you

I will fight until the end
Get ready to collide
And I will watch you fall again
I'll bury you alive
You try to bring me to my knees
Trying to take it all
Now I will stand and watch you crawl

I'm still here
Now I watch you beg

I will fight until the end
Get ready to collide
And I will watch you fall again
I'll bury you alive
You try to bring me to my knees
Trying to take it all
Now I will stand and watch you crawl


8. THE OUTSIDE

What if I'm not the same
What if I never let go of the blame
What if you drag me back again
What if I would let you just pretend
I erase this memory
I escape this gravity
Is that how I used to be
Is that the price of my identity

I'm standing on the outside
I'm looking in on what you can't hide
I'm dying on the inside
'Cause now I can see your lies from the outside

What if I stand ashamed
What if I can't let go of the pain
What if I have something to lose
What if I've got nothing left to prove
I replace this life you stole
I embrace the world I know
What if you were always wrong
And if I said I knew it all along

I'm standing on the outside
I'm looking in on what you can't hide
I'm dying on the inside
'Cause now I can see your lies from the outside

I'm not you
I'm not you
I'm not you
I will never be you
I won't let you pull me through

I'm standing on the outside
I'm looking in on what you can't hide
I'm dying on the inside
'Cause now I can see your lies from the outside

I'm standing on the outside
I'm looking in on what you can't hide
I'm dying on the inside
'Cause now I can see your lies from the outside


9. WHO WE ARE

We were the ones who weren't afraid
We were the broken hearted
We were the scars that wouldn't fade away
How did we let go
how did we forget that we don't have to hide
We won't believe the lies again
We won't be paralyzed

We can be who we are
Now we are alive
We can fight they cannot contain us
It's who we are
We are undying
We are forever

We won't hide our faces from the light
Eliminate the space between us
It's who we are
We are forever
It's who we are

We were the tears that passion cried
We were the sacrifice
We were the flame that wouldn't die inside
How did we go wrong
We will not forget
We will not be left behind
We won't give up the fight again
We won't be denied

We can be who we are
Now we are alive
We can fight they cannot contain us
It's who we are
We are undying
We are forever

We won't hide our faces from the light
Eliminate the space between us
It's who we are
We are forever
It's who we are

We will never die
We will never die
We will not deny
Now we are alive

We can be who we are
Now we are alive
We can fight they cannot contain us
It's who we are
We are undying
We are forever

We won't hide our faces from the light
Eliminate the space between us
It's who we are
We are forever
It's who we are


10. BEST IS YET TO COME

Afraid it won't come 'round again
Afraid to move on
Wishing I could go back when
Everything was easier and meaningful to me

Wanting all we left behind
Like it's the answer
An hour glass we can't rewind
Holding back the life that I've denied for so long

Can I find my way to you?
And After all that we've been through
And after all we left in pieces
I still believe our lives have just begun
Cause now the past can be outrun
And I know you are the reason
I still believe the best is yet to come

A photograph's still in your hands
Afraid to let it go
The minutes rain like grains of sand
And time is just a war that's stealing dreams from within
So come and take them back again

And After all that we've been through
And after all we left in pieces
I still believe our lives have just begun
Cause now the past can be outrun
And I know you are the reason
I still believe the best is yet to come

I won't turn around
Let it all slip away
I'm never backing down
Cause tomorrow's a new day
And everything can change

And After all that we've been through
And after all we left in pieces
I still believe our lives have just begun
Cause now the past can be outrun
And I know you are the reason
I still believe the best is yet to come

I still believe the best is yet to come
The best is yet to come
I still believe the best is yet to come


11. HYMN FOR THE MISSING

I tried to walk together
But the night was growing dark
Thought you were beside me
But I reached and you were gone
Sometimes I hear you calling
From some lost and distant shore
I hear you crying softly for the way it was before

Where are you now?
Are you lost?
Will I find you again?
Are you alone?
Are you afraid?
Are you searching for me?
Why did you go? I had to stay
Now I'm reaching for you
Will you wait? will you wait?
Will I see you again?

You took it with you when you left
These scars are just a trace
Now it wanders lost and wounded
This heart that I misplaced

Where are you now?
Are you lost?
Will I find you again?
Are you alone?
Are you afraid?
Are you searching for me?
Why did you go? I had to stay
Now I'm reaching for you
Will you wait? will you wait?
Will I see you again?
