Verse:
She holds the rosary
Clinched tight into her first
She cries for broken dreams
and the pain that scars her wrist
Her thoughts hold her hostage
Social life that does not exist
Her lips touch the water
and this pill takes effect

Chorus:
She said why, when i tried
I think ill hide
Old scars left, beneath the sleeve
I felt so, betrayed and broken

Verse:
He always sits alone
Nobody pays attention
He's got his hand on a gun
He feels the world is against him
He pulls the trigger in rage
Shots heard now we know his face
His name is all in the night
Spilled blood to feel love

What is broke is done to me, Fuck You

This song describes our stage show. It's very driving in the beginning but ends with an operatic feel.

Verse:
Well i'm trying to make something
Out of this life you take away
Try to kill these dreams of mine
Try to be the keeper of my fate

Bont tell me that your sorry
Back off you got your attention
Back off leave my heart alone

Verse:
Well you can't blame my
For the things i wanna say
It's because of you
I'm not a sinner not a saint

You don't know
Your killing my soul
Pain inside
It's out of control

Bring Me Home........

An actual Conversation between lead singer John Gates and a past relationship.

I think ill dissapear
Find a brand new life
Breathe in the air
Emotions run high
I see your pretty face
In the back of my mind
Noone can take your place
How can i move on

Now i feel the worst
This pain is changing me
It's getting cold and jaded
Say i didn't care
Say its hard to feel
Try to justify your ways
and start running

I burn the notes you wrote
Watch the words go up in smoke
Feel the warmth you gave to me
Now it lights the sky
You say you need some time
To find out whats inside
Why cant it just be me

What is there to decide
Am i wrong or am i right
Your confusing me, i'm fading
You say i didn't care
You say its hard to feel
Try to justify your ways
And start running

Run......
Beat my chest within, just to feel again

Come back, did i waste your time

Now i know the truth
The peice missing wasnt you
You found your freedom
Enjoy it
You say i didnt care
You say its hard to feel
Try to justify your ways
And start running

Verse:
What didn't i do
Did everything for you
You left me unaware
With nothing to run to

The song starts off in your face. From the get go its a very high energetic song. The bridge slows down a bit just to break right back into the crazyness of the chorus.

Underneath is about trials of being in a harmful relationship. Having a controling significant other, who in this case is very disturbed that you have not given in, hence "I'm on top".

Verse 1:
It seems attention is your best friend
This is a waste of time
I'm just a man who wants more in life
It seems i've fallen behind
Well i've been there before no stranger to pain
Your not the caring type
I accept this, i'll get through it
Let's leave love to rest and bury the best inside

Verse 2:
It seems teh best things in life, start to mess with time
I'm no angel, tried to treat you right
So you grab my hand try to pull me in
It's not the place for me
I don't need that bitch, your an old disease

I'm underneath, I'm underneath
Oh you must take it
You cant beleive how i'm on top
Try to pleasure me, bring me to my knees
I wont be taken, your underneath your underneath
Now i'm on Top


Bride:
Breathe, Just Breathe
