There's only fear when it comes near - For the dog or for the man It doesn't feel, it doesn't care - So you need to understand You can't win, you're born to lose - You can't decide and you can't choose You're just dust, you're lost in space - And in time, you'll be erased Believe - this now There is - no escaping Bow down - let go You know - what is waiting There is - one truth There can be no denying Your time - will come You're either dead or dying They like to say that there's a way - To live on forever more But this is real and how it feels - Walk through and slam the door They lay coins upon their eyes - For lost souls to live on And they can wail, they can cry - But you will just be gone Try hard - run fast The pain is all that lasts Turn left - turn right Your day will turn to night They sleep - you weep The Reaper plays for keeps Get up - fall down Six feet - underground You're all gone - it's coming for you You're all gone - it's coming for you You're all gone - it's coming for you You're all gone - you're all gone There's nowhere left for us to go - We live on borrowed time Say goodbye to what you know - You get yours, I get mine There's no hope for us at all - The sun will never shine Believe - this now There is - no escaping Bow down - let go You know - what is waiting There is - one truth There can be no denying Your time - will come You're either dead or dying You're all gone - it's coming for you You're all gone - it's coming for you You're all gone - it's coming for you You're all gone - you're all gone

I’m the mountain you will defy Despite resistance you will comply When the truth is a bitter lie it’s easiest to tell I will break you through countless years Exploit your weakness expose your fears I show no mercy I shed no tears nor sympathize To find one’s solace in an everlasting war The pain within us must be well worth dying for When death has given you meaning in life You feed on malice and endless strife Long for the chance to twist that knife The beast within your core I’m the demon down deep inside In the shadows of your mind I hide Lust for misery and suicide Always knocking at your door The emptiness will feed on everything within Consume the will to be and let the end begin I am your lust for lies I’m your dark disguise I’m behind your eyes World turn black Foundations crack No turning back

Non Defectum 02:56
Well, I swallowed my pride; Decade down on my luck. I’m on a vendetta: Red robin hood dead ‘em; “Competitor” - stuck up myself at the register - robbing me - “veteran” Used to trend set ‘em; Now I just transcend ‘em. I am a conclusion but I have not ended… Battery; stuttering, stammering: Non defectum CHORUS 1 DO NOT FAIL: Non defectum. I DO NOT FAIL: Follow me. I Will say as I DO I swear I will NOT Faulter or FAIL Non Defectum I Will say as I DO I swear I will NOT Faulter or FAIL Follow Me VERSE TWO We pray to a screen and we worship a phone To distract from the fact that we’re dying alone… Wake up HEY, wake up HEY, the voice in my head Said take some offense, Put your heart in your head, Make tomorrow non sequitur Well wishers? Bread winners? Flash in the pan? BRIDGE Non defectum. We seize another day. No question. We seize another day. Non defectum. Non defectum. CHORUS 2 DO NOT FAIL: Non defectum. I DO NOT FAIL: Follow me. I Will say as I DO I swear I will NOT Faulter or FAIL Non Defectum I Will say as I DO I swear I will NOT Faulter or FAIL Follow Me OUTRO (CHORUS 3) DO NOT FAIL: Non defectum. I DO NOT FAIL: Follow me. Heart on my sleeve like the sign of the beast. No longer driven by the money, envy, rat race ending. Time to live my life.

Watching her from far away What could I possibly say? To entice such a thing Maybe just sit here and think? Some other time other place Shattered I left in disgrace Heaven forbid such a thing Hell, would welcome my sin Veneration Please let me in Pardon my sins Damaged and broken and cut This time I really fucked up Worthless and timid and small After I gave her my all Some other time other place Shattered I left in disgrace Heaven forbid such a thing Hell, would welcome my sin My Veneration My Veneration Down I go Lord I know and know how It is all over right now Tempted to take my revenge Received, but she never sent Me a glimmer of hope I'm at the end of my rope Down I go

Saddle up it’s time to fight. End is coming near. Now it’s time to pay the price of all things that I hear From a one eyed liar and a two-faced punk, gamblin’ your soul Your mouth bought you a shovel It’s diggin’ you a hole Chorus I’ll be here singing my song You’re there carrying on Telling lies all night long I’ll be here when you’re dead and gone 2 Your death walks right behind you In the light of the moon If I never see your cold, dead eyes, it’ll be too soon. Chorus I will be here singing my song While there carrying on Telling lies all night long I’ll be here when you’re dead and gone 3 I’ll be right beside you When you’re taking your last breath Dragging you to hell When they lay you to rest Chorus I will be here singing my song While you’re there yammering on Telling lies all night long I’ll be here when you’re dead and gone

How many problems Can one man take Before he starts...he starts to break? Let down again Goes the extra mile I only see his Crooked Smile Crooked Smile Left for dead a broken man That's how his life His life began Kicked to the gutter got right back up full of fire and one desire Crooked Smile The world's not fair Who said it was? No excuses Rise above All your problems Are so damn small Don't compare You've got it all end What you give Is what you get

Heaven Burn 02:57
Seen too much. I’ve endured. Pop the clutch, Pull the cord I’m unsteady, deadly, vested, edgy, ready to brawl. No more trust. You ignored My entrustment. Falling forward; Chest is heavy, broke the levee, bet he ready to fall. PRE-CHORUS Show me light, maybe make me a believer LIGHT’S OFF Show me Christ baby, make me believe LIGHTS OFF - THEY RISE For the ultimate deceiver Heaven will burn Heaven burn Heaven Heaven burn CHORUS ONE Arise! DO NOT LET SHEEP PREVAIL The shattered teeth Of the wicked speak Almighty, she has fucking failed VERSE TWO You can purify a child in the greatest lake But If it’s terminal, no prayer can save it for gods sake. Open my eyes Show me light, maybe make me a believer LIGHT’S OFF Show me Christ baby, make me believe LIGHTS OFF - THEY RISE For the ultimate deceiver Heaven will burn Heaven burn Heaven Heaven burn CHORUS TWO Arise! DO NOT LET SHEEP PREVAIL The shattered teeth Of the wicked speak Almighty, she has fucking failed Arise! DO NOT LET SHEEP PREVAIL The shattered teeth Of the wicked speak Almighty, she has failed !!! BRIDGE BELIEVE IN ME There’s bludgeoning And plundering And such a thing as suffering now SLOW DOWN Evil, pain, injustice, multiplicity, simplicity plus fiction… Take a look and SLOW DOWN BELIEVE IN ME There’s bludgeoning And plundering And such a thing as suffering now SLOW DOWN Evil, pain, injustice, multiplicity, simplicity plus fiction… Take a look and SLOW DOWN VERSE THREE I have seen too much to fall to faith. Heaven will burn. Heaven will burn. Heaven will burn. Heaven will burn Heaven burn Heaven Heaven burn CHORUS THREE Arise!

Believe in me. SLOW DOWN

Inside the church Anointed with Myrrh The Holy Ghost And a innocent girl He clutches her breasts As he welcomes death She goes for the throat Lays her innocence, to rest Alright guys! Get your dollars out And won’t you please welcome to the stage Little Miss Death! She comes in hungry Teeth on her heels She’s selling love Heaven above Huntin’ for her next meal She comes on fire She twists the flame Got a lust to tease Got’em on their knees Hallowed be her name Hallowed be her name Hallowed be her name Hallowed be her name Hallowed be her name She’s the shadows She’s the fear Lay back and die motherfucker Your end is near She’s the treasure She’s the pain She’s the potion to the magic Hallowed be her name

Social media is ripping apart the social aspect of human existence by creating a divide in communication, understanding, and unity.
