Rise! Get yourselves together
Rise! Stand up and live your life
Rise! Get yourselves together
Rise! Hands up, hands up high
Stand up to the devil slowly rising
Clear your throat now
You can cough for their demise
Speak out, don't let the status quo define you
This is your world, just put the fear back in their eyes
There comes a time when you know there's a problem
Rise up, it's a dawn of a new day
Hands up, it's gonna be okay
Even when they strangle you, get yourselves together
Strike down all that oppose you
Look now, what have they sold you
Even if they anger you, get yourselves together
Rise! Get yourself together!
Rise! Stand up and live your life!
Rise! Get yourselves together!
Wake up, this could be your finest hour
Pick your head up, and get your body off the floor
Hey now, don't be afraid to fight for something
This is your chance, and you can stand for so much more
There comes a time when you know there's a problem
Rise up, it's a dawn of a new day
Hands up, it's gonna be okay
Even when they strangle you, get yourselves together
Strike down all that oppose you
Look now, what have they sold you
Even if they anger you, get yourselves together
Rise!
Rise! Get yourselves together!
Rise! Stand up and live your life!
Rise up, it's the dawn of a new day
Hands up, it's gonna be okay
Even when they strangle you, get yourselves together
Strike down all that oppose you
Look now, what have they sold you
Even if they anger you, get yourselves together
Get yourselves together
Rise!

You Have Come To The Right Place
Hey, how long have you been crawling
With the sick and the appalling
It's like a cancer
Hey, you gotta rise up out of darkness
Gotta leave behind the heartless
You'll find the answer
If you're the last on Earth
Feel like you're damned or cursed
You have come to the right place
And if you have lost yourself
You can escape the hell
You have come to the right place
Sometimes you feel like giving up
Sometimes you've bled out enough
Sometimes you've got to believe in something
'Cause you're not the only one
Standing there losing blood
You have come to the right place this time
Hey, how long have you been rotting
Your veins are slowly clotting
You're growing weaker
Hey, you gotta wake up from the nightmare
There's nothing you will find there
Except the reaper
If you're the last on Earth
Feel like you're damned or cursed
You have come to the right place
And if you have lost yourself
You can escape the hell
You have come to the right place
Sometimes you feel like giving up
Sometimes you've bled out enough
Sometimes you've got to believe in something
'Cause you're not the only one
Standing there losing blood
You have come to the right place
Sometimes you feel like giving up
Sometimes you've bled out enough
Sometimes you've got to believe in something
'Cause you're not the only one
Standing there losing blood
You have come to the right place
If you're the last on Earth
Feel like you're damned or cursed
You have come to the right place
And if you have lost yourself
You can escape the hell
You have come to the right place
Sometimes you feel like giving up
Sometimes you've bled out enough
Sometimes you've gotta believe in something
'Cause you're not the only one
Standing there losing blood
You have come to the right place this time
With the sick and the appalling
It's like a cancer
Hey, you gotta rise up out of darkness
Gotta leave behind the heartless
You'll find the answer
If you're the last on Earth
Feel like you're damned or cursed
You have come to the right place
And if you have lost yourself
You can escape the hell
You have come to the right place
Sometimes you feel like giving up
Sometimes you've bled out enough
Sometimes you've got to believe in something
'Cause you're not the only one
Standing there losing blood
You have come to the right place this time
Hey, how long have you been rotting
Your veins are slowly clotting
You're growing weaker
Hey, you gotta wake up from the nightmare
There's nothing you will find there
Except the reaper
If you're the last on Earth
Feel like you're damned or cursed
You have come to the right place
And if you have lost yourself
You can escape the hell
You have come to the right place
Sometimes you feel like giving up
Sometimes you've bled out enough
Sometimes you've got to believe in something
'Cause you're not the only one
Standing there losing blood
You have come to the right place
Sometimes you feel like giving up
Sometimes you've bled out enough
Sometimes you've got to believe in something
'Cause you're not the only one
Standing there losing blood
You have come to the right place
If you're the last on Earth
Feel like you're damned or cursed
You have come to the right place
And if you have lost yourself
You can escape the hell
You have come to the right place
Sometimes you feel like giving up
Sometimes you've bled out enough
Sometimes you've gotta believe in something
'Cause you're not the only one
Standing there losing blood
You have come to the right place this time

Im Sick
I, I bit down on my tongue to see if I could feel
To see if I've been missing anything
And I, I crystallized my lungs to show you they were real
And waited for a sign that never came
If I'm not breathing, resuscitate my soul
Bring on the shame, bring on the pain
Yeah, I know that I'm sick, give me some more
I say yeah, we are the ill and the deranged
Yeah, I know that I'm sick, give me some more
I, I'm wishing you the worst 'cause I'm the bitter kind
And all this hate's been covered by [?]
But I, I might forget your name and I'll forget my lies
And maybe I'll just lay here on the rails
If I'm not breathing, resuscitate my soul
Bring on the shame, bring on the pain
Yeah, I know that I'm sick, give me some more
I say yeah, we are the ill and the deranged
Yeah, I know that I'm sick, give me some more
Give me some more...
Laugh at my face as I hang from this rope
I'm such a disgrace with my misguided hope
I look at my life in the blackest of ways
But when in the hell will this fear go away
[?]
I feel the disgrace with my misguided hope
I look at my life in the blackest of ways
When in the hell will this fear go away
Bring on the shame, bring on the pain
Yeah, I know that I'm sick, give me some more
I say yeah, we are the ill and the deranged
Yeah, I know that I'm sick, give me some more
Give me some more...
To see if I've been missing anything
And I, I crystallized my lungs to show you they were real

If I'm not breathing, resuscitate my soul

Prayers For The Damned
When I wake up to the sound of demons
They're always telling me that I'm no good
And all the angels keep scratching at my door
I'm doing what I can to fight this anger
I'm just a product of a living hell
And I don't wanna live like this no more
Everything is ruined in my head
Sometimes I wish I was...
But maybe I'm not alone
Maybe if you take my hand
And I reach up to God
Maybe this time he'll say a prayer for the damned
What have I got to lose
When I've already lost it all
Maybe this time he'll say a prayer for...
Say a prayer for the damned
For the damned
Have you ever been abused by someone
So blue that it chills your soul
Have you ever been afraid of your own ghost
I'm just a creature of a broken past
We're all looking for a second chance
And I don't wanna live like this no more
And all the madness rages in my head
Sometimes I wish I was...
But maybe I'm not alone
Maybe if you take my hand
And I reach up to God
Maybe this time he'll say a prayer for the damned
What have I got to lose
When I've already lost it all
Maybe this time he'll say a prayer for...
Say a prayer for the damned
We are not alone
It's darkest before the hope
Well you and I, we're not alone
Maybe I'm not alone
Maybe if you take my hand
And I reach up to God
Maybe this time he'll say a prayer for the damned
What have we got to lose
When we've already lost it all
Maybe this time he'll say a prayer for...
Say a prayer for the damned
(Say a prayer) for the damned
(Say a prayer for the damned)
(Say a prayer for the damned)
(Say a prayer for the...)

Better Man
Where is the blood I gave you?
Where is the sacrifice I made?
What the hell happened to me?
When did I turn so damn afraid?
I fly on crippled wings
But I will take your bitterness away
Where is the blood I gave you?
Where is the sacrifice I made?
I wanna let you know
These scars are here forever
Heaven help me be a better man
I really hope it shows
I'm mighty cracked and broken
Heaven help me be a better man
I try to swallow hard now
'cause I can't see beyond the blur
But I could make a new vow
Or die for you if you'd prefer
Did I become so vacant?
Have I just made this all a mess?
I know you've lost your patience
I'll beg forgiveness if there's half a chance
Just half a chance
I wanna let you know
These scars are here forever
Heaven help me be a better man
I really hope it shows
I'm mighty cracked and broken
Heaven help me be a better man
Sometimes my best isn't good enough
But I do what I can trying to be a better man
Give me a second chance, I'm gonna make it last
I'll do the best I can trying to be a better man
I wanna let you know
These scars are here forever
Heaven help me be a better man
I really hope it shows
I'm mighty cracked and broken
Heaven help me be a better man
Sometimes my best isn't good enough
But I do what I can trying to be a better man
Give me a second chance, I'm gonna make it last
I'll do the best I can trying to be a better man.
For you
For you
For me
Where is the sacrifice I made?
What the hell happened to me?
When did I turn so damn afraid?
I fly on crippled wings
But I will take your bitterness away
Where is the blood I gave you?
Where is the sacrifice I made?
I wanna let you know
These scars are here forever
Heaven help me be a better man
I really hope it shows
I'm mighty cracked and broken
Heaven help me be a better man
I try to swallow hard now
'cause I can't see beyond the blur
But I could make a new vow
Or die for you if you'd prefer
Did I become so vacant?
Have I just made this all a mess?
I know you've lost your patience
I'll beg forgiveness if there's half a chance
Just half a chance

Heaven help me be a better man
I really hope it shows
I'm mighty cracked and broken
Heaven help me be a better man
Sometimes my best isn't good enough

Give me a second chance, I'm gonna make it last
I'll do the best I can trying to be a better man
I wanna let you know

Heaven help me be a better man
I really hope it shows
I'm mighty cracked and broken
Heaven help me be a better man

Cant Stop
Every time you target me you really only waste your time
And what's the difference of a carcass and a human mind
You can't stop, you cannot stop me
You got blisters on your tongue from all the septic energy
Just another bitter leech sucking off a killing streak
You can't stop, you cannot stop me
You can't stop, you cannot stop me
Cold and jealous with apocalyptic malice
A kick to my head, nice try, but you can't stop me
You can't stop, you cannot stop me
Well everything you thought was wrong, you f*cking idiot
Someone sold you off and now you're just another hypocrite
You can't stop, you cannot stop me
There's gonna come a day when you regretfully remember this
A toxic love affair that's ending in a brutal kiss
You can't stop, you cannot stop me
Cold and jealous with apocalyptic malice
A kick to my head, nice try, but you can't stop me
You can't stop, you cannot stop me
You try to hold me back, put poison in the cracks
And pray for my death, but you just can't stop me
You can't stop, you cannot stop me
You can't stop, you cannot stop me
You can't stop, you cannot stop me
You can't stop, you cannot stop me
You can't stop, you cannot stop me
And what's the difference of a carcass and a human mind
You can't stop, you cannot stop me
You got blisters on your tongue from all the septic energy
Just another bitter leech sucking off a killing streak
You can't stop, you cannot stop me
You can't stop, you cannot stop me
Cold and jealous with apocalyptic malice
A kick to my head, nice try, but you can't stop me
You can't stop, you cannot stop me
Well everything you thought was wrong, you f*cking idiot
Someone sold you off and now you're just another hypocrite
You can't stop, you cannot stop me
There's gonna come a day when you regretfully remember this
A toxic love affair that's ending in a brutal kiss
You can't stop, you cannot stop me
Cold and jealous with apocalyptic malice
A kick to my head, nice try, but you can't stop me
You can't stop, you cannot stop me
You try to hold me back, put poison in the cracks
And pray for my death, but you just can't stop me
You can't stop, you cannot stop me
You can't stop, you cannot stop me
You can't stop, you cannot stop me
You can't stop, you cannot stop me
You can't stop, you cannot stop me

When We Were Gods
You and I in embryonic fluid
So entwined we could not let go
Cradled in your arms, reading poems of darkness
Fueled our love, it fueled our love
But I just want you to remember
When we were gods, when we were demons
We had it all, we had our reasons
We danced through the victories, we lived through the scars
I counted blessings while you counted stars
We had it all, yeah we had it all
When we were gods
Even now, covered in your ashes
Swollen tongue, bloodshot eyes
I am not defined by all of your disorders
I am good, and I will rise
But I just want you to remember
When we were gods, when we were demons
We had it all, we had our reasons
We danced through the victories, we lived through the scars
I counted blessings while you counted stars
We had it all, yeah we had it all
When we were gods
When we were gods
You though you could violate me when you wanted to
You though you could kill the part of me that haunted you
You though you could violate me when you wanted to
You though you could kill the part of me that haunted you
When we were gods, when we were demons
We had it all, we had our reasons
We danced through the victories, lived through the scars
I counted blessings while you counted stars
We had it all, yeah we had it all
When we were gods
When we were gods
So entwined we could not let go
Cradled in your arms, reading poems of darkness
Fueled our love, it fueled our love
But I just want you to remember
When we were gods, when we were demons
We had it all, we had our reasons
We danced through the victories, we lived through the scars
I counted blessings while you counted stars
We had it all, yeah we had it all
When we were gods
Even now, covered in your ashes
Swollen tongue, bloodshot eyes
I am not defined by all of your disorders
I am good, and I will rise
But I just want you to remember
When we were gods, when we were demons
We had it all, we had our reasons
We danced through the victories, we lived through the scars

We had it all, yeah we had it all
When we were gods
When we were gods
You though you could violate me when you wanted to
You though you could kill the part of me that haunted you
You though you could violate me when you wanted to
You though you could kill the part of me that haunted you
When we were gods, when we were demons

Belly Of The Beast
I stared at the face of evil in the belly of the beast
I turned my back on Jesus in the belly of the beast
Sometimes your only choice is no choice at all
Sometimes the only voice you hear is when the devil calls
So listen
I'm holding on, I'm holding on
It don't matter how deep you're digging in the belly of the beast
It don't matter how far you're falling in the belly of the beast
Sometimes it's not worth dying in the belly of the beast
You better pray for your sins to kill you fast
You better pray how long this life will last
'Cause what you do, what do when you're living
Is what you do, what you do when you die
I dove off the cliffs of sadness in the belly of the beast
I inhaled the fumes of madness in the belly of the beast
Sometimes your only choice is no choice at all
Sometimes the only voice you hear is when the devil calls
So listen
I'm holding on, I'm holding on
It don't matter how deep you're digging in the belly of the beast
It don't matter how far you're falling in the belly of the beast
Sometimes it's not worth dying in the belly of the beast
You better pray for your sins to kill you fast
You better pray how long this life will last
'Cause what you do, what do when you're living
Is what you do, what you do when you die
It don't matter how deep you're digging in the belly of the beast
It don't matter how far you're falling in the belly of the beast
Sometimes it's not worth dying in the belly of the beast
You better pray for your sins to kill you fast
You better pray how long this life will last
'Cause what you do, what do when you're living
Is what you do, what you do when you die
I turned my back on Jesus in the belly of the beast
Sometimes your only choice is no choice at all
Sometimes the only voice you hear is when the devil calls
So listen
I'm holding on, I'm holding on
It don't matter how deep you're digging in the belly of the beast
It don't matter how far you're falling in the belly of the beast
Sometimes it's not worth dying in the belly of the beast
You better pray for your sins to kill you fast
You better pray how long this life will last
'Cause what you do, what do when you're living
Is what you do, what you do when you die
I dove off the cliffs of sadness in the belly of the beast
I inhaled the fumes of madness in the belly of the beast
Sometimes your only choice is no choice at all
Sometimes the only voice you hear is when the devil calls
So listen

It don't matter how deep you're digging in the belly of the beast

You better pray how long this life will last
'Cause what you do, what do when you're living

It don't matter how deep you're digging in the belly of the beast
It don't matter how far you're falling in the belly of the beast

Everything Went To Hell
When I wake up to the sound of demons
They're always telling me that I'm no good
And all the angels keep scratching at my door
I'm doing what I can to fight this anger
I'm just a product of a living hell
And I don't wanna live like this no more
Everything is ruined in my head
Sometimes I wish I was...
But maybe I'm not alone
Maybe if you take my hand
And I reach up to God
Maybe this time he'll say a prayer for the damned
What have I got to lose
When I've already lost it all
Maybe this time he'll say a prayer for...
Say a prayer for the damned

So blue that it chills your soul
Have you ever been afraid of your own ghost

Maybe this time he'll say a prayer for the damned
What have I got to lose
When I've already lost it all
Maybe this time he'll say a prayer for...
Say a prayer for the damned
For the damned
Have you ever been abused by someone
So blue that it chills your soul
Have you ever been afraid of your own ghost
I'm just a creature of a broken past
We're all looking for a second chance
And I don't wanna live like this no more
And all the madness rages in my head
Sometimes I wish I was...
But maybe I'm not alone
Maybe if you take my hand
And I reach up to God
Maybe this time he'll say a prayer for the damned
What have I got to lose
When I've already lost it all
Maybe this time he'll say a prayer for...
Say a prayer for the damned
We are not alone
It's darkest before the hope
Well you and I, we're not alone
Maybe I'm not alone
Maybe if you take my hand
And I reach up to God
Maybe this time he'll say a prayer for the damned
What have we got to lose
When we've already lost it all
Maybe this time he'll say a prayer for...
Say a prayer for the damned
(Say a prayer) for the damned
(Say a prayer for the damned)

Rise Of The Melancholy Empire
There's always struggle here
With senseless pain and murder
No mother's milk to sip
No innocence to nurture
May God be cruel to you
May he rain his hell upon you
We will grow strong from this
We will not be defeated
However hard they try
Over and over and over a thousand times
Through all this suffering
As fall turns into winter
We will be back again
And grown in new found numbers
May God be cruel to you
May he rain his hell upon you
We will grow strong from this
We will not be defeated
However hard they try
Over and over and over a thousand times
We will grow strong from this
We will not be defeated
However hard they try
Over and over and over a thousand times
With senseless pain and murder
No mother's milk to sip
No innocence to nurture
May God be cruel to you
May he rain his hell upon you
We will grow strong from this
We will not be defeated
However hard they try
Over and over and over a thousand times
Through all this suffering
As fall turns into winter
We will be back again
And grown in new found numbers
May God be cruel to you
May he rain his hell upon you
We will grow strong from this
We will not be defeated
However hard they try
Over and over and over a thousand times
We will grow strong from this
We will not be defeated
However hard they try
Over and over and over a thousand times
