She cuts with her figure Every Jack trails in vigour Got it all Love Chimera But the eyes of a fiend And she knows She knows Vicious is her nature From her lips the tongues of pleasure Hissing hymns of blood and rapture She was born for the scene And she knows She knows I don't trust foreword Can't believe in this love Till the clothes come off How is it we fall so easy We ride for our worth On a wave of the curse 'Cause we could do worse Every sin has come Aligned in black salvation But I know it's her vacation Twisted tongue just in relation Black card of a queen And she knows She knows I don't trust foreword Can't believe in this love Till the clothes come off How is it we fall so easy We ride for our worth On a wave of the curse 'Cause we could do worse Every sin has come Why won't this work Should have known better Should have known this love was Should have known this love was Why won't this work Should have known better Should have known this love was Should have known this love was Why won't this work Should have known better Should have known this love was Should have known this love was Why won't this work Should have known better Should have known this love was Should have known this love was Why won't this work Should have known better

Take me by the scruff of my skin Pull me from this fever within Dragged down by the blight of my kin Painted with the seed in my sin And it's so lonely Give me the key to the pipeline I need to drown out these white lies Dropping my own-brand ego Keeping it Spartan now that we know There's peace in crossing that line A stroke that paints for my kind I think I'm losing it all Insane I'm finally free It makes me grind on my teeth A way of keeping control Split to quick to make it to your paradise Not quite fixed but hanging on my sacrifice Words don't stick but sting with every compromise What's the point of it all Scream don't shout, devout, you aren't a deity Grin don't pout, the crowd is just a speck to me Dripping, draining, tripping on my own two feet Raise the bar or you fold Lighting fires just to put them out Tasting the embers with my cotton mouth Circles and squares trying to force it Tying the tide inside a corset There's peace in crossing that line A stroke that paints for my kind I think I'm losing it all Insane I'm finally free It makes me grind on my teeth A way of keeping control Fooling the gods 'cause I'm Promethean Separated from oblivion Letting loose until I'm losing grip Clenching my fists until my knuckles split There's peace in crossing that line A stroke that paints for my kind I think I'm losing it all Insane I'm finally free It makes me grind on my teeth A way of keeping control You make me grind You make me You make me grind You make me You make me grind And now I'm losing control

EXPECT 03:08
Mother I can't drag what we both knew In a masquerade of both clowns and fools Don't put on a show, a tragedy for more views Is it worth Bearing all in hope just to prove its worth Little insecurity that came with the first With the rest all in tow, find the lamb on all fours Is it worth I'm tired of all your cries The way you victimise And now I recognise You won't learn, learn Forgetting all my reason It's not your turn, turn I will never regret what I Can't carry the weight What do you expect How could you lose your sight on me A bond that was there before I could breathe Tearing the links that were drawn in the scene of our lives I'm tired of all your lies The way you victimise And now I recognise You won't learn, learn Forgetting all my reason It's not your turn, turn I will never regret what I Can't carry the weight What do you expect Thought I would remain But the silence made a sound Filled with pure disdain I know I'll be without Triumph over evil Stamp out all your hate I know there'll be a sequel And I can't live on this way And I can't find it to stay And I can't carry the weight What do you expect

CITY SINS 03:43
Tall walls they won't Let up on my throat Fear has encroached On every life Life thrives in the dark Old scars leave their mark Street beats with no heart Is it by design Based in a need No hands are clean Rec parks play their part Rolled dice pull apart Collars, void and dart The homeless truth Have your eyes seen enough Naive from the start Palmed hands, that's a bluff The smile reveals Based in a need No hands are clean Based in a need No hands are clean Disgust and grey hairs trapped in a suit Harpies they swarm and smell the black fruit This time they go in Embrace city sins Slowly, you'll get over it What peace will you give To make it through The price on the tag has a hold on you I want out of here Averted eyes A solemn gaze We walk alone Amongst the haze A broken light To guide the way We walk alone

You said you'd show me the light Give me a reason We both know that's a lie A piece that is broken No I won't step away Or let you dictate I'm lost But who cares Why won't you leave it alone A figure that holds on Slipped through my hand An act of betrayal Just 'cause you cannot see me Doesn't mean I'm not there If you stop then don't stare Wade through the dark Brothers by mark Of the curse The chill of the night Whispers blood curdle I've tasted your slight Can't go any further You left me with red tears You ran to your cage So who was to blame I followed the flame Just 'cause you cannot see me Doesn't mean I'm not there If you stop then don't stare Wade through the dark Brothers by mark Of the curse On and on and on and on Trapped in the web of the lies that you've spun Covered our eyes in the games that you've won Tied to the tracks as the train starts to come It goes on and on and on and on Trapped in the web of the lies that you've spun Covered our eyes in the games that you've won Tied to the tracks as the train starts to come It goes go on and on and on and on Nothing to hear but the news that you run Nothing to see but the heads that you've spun Who report into line then hand you the gun
