Welcome to the end, where solace will never be found, as nations sleep in sin, we will be the end of this town. Put on your whorish makeup, meet me in downtown hell tonight, where the drinks are £1.90 or extra with a STI, riot vans warming up their engines and little children taking things outside, there will be no morning after, as my nightmares come to life. This place crawls with parasites, perverts and teenage brides, your going home alone tonight. DRINK UP, WE'RE LEAVING.

Time is money, money is greed, encircled by monotony, routine dictates, a dullards dream, devoid of personality. I wander blind, a vacant head, my aspirations put to bed, this apathy is all I know, I feel so low, so fucking low. Another day is dead and gone, these winter winds they bring me down, life offers me no sanctity, I graft but thats the irony. Theres a life i should be living, but the living makes me livid X2 Must our lives hang from the money tree?

Night & Fog 02:22
Marching out in single file, where is god in a land we once called home, mass confusion fills the air, every face in the room is filled with fear, the ceiling rumbles and the lights turn off, they look up for redemption but redemption never comes, we, we all seek redemption but redemption never comes. As we tread on broken glass, night & fog brings eternal darkness, is there no-one left to save us?

Slayer 01:27
Someone turn the lights on cause I cant see you anymore, how did it get to this? so drunk you cant remember or so sober that you throw away everything we took 2 years to build, this isn't what i wanted, this is the end of everything, a textbook romance fed to the flies. I set fire to our bed of.... LIES. And like that I was out like a light, with a broken heart and a broken life, locusts crawl while you soundly sleep and then they crawl on your body like a fucking disease, theres no escape from your past, with every breath feeling like your last, every step you take it sickens me and I cant fucking breathe. Go forth and flood the banks of the nile as crocodile tears fall from the sky, theres no place here for deceit, your puppy dog eyes don't work on me, so sleep sound in a lovers embrace as the flames of hell quench your aftertaste.
5.
Death 02:56
I've never been so fucking scared, my world lies broken on the floor again, I trash another room in vain, I'm satisfied but things are not the same, I tried to find peace of mind, in bottles of whatever I can find, another child full of despair, another family portrait disappears. Death. Mother, father, kneel to my throne, for I am the king of the bastard sons, my childhood flashes before my eyes, please don't turn me away, please don't tell me goodbye. As you walked out that door, my world was filled with remorse, as I stare longingly in dismay, I had everything then you threw it away. I will never forgive, you will live with your sins and I should have known, right from the start that you'd fuck things up and tear us apart. Love is blind.
