Martyrs

The wind is whispering of martyrs
Lay me down to rest, let sleep erase the memories
Let my heart succeed to end it’s beat and quiet all the waves
The anchor thrown and buried deep, no water left to carry me
No path to find the indiscreet of failing again
All those left behind are stuck with
pulling knifes out of hearts and minds
And you should’ve known better than this
You should’ve known better
You ran along these crooked lines
With nothing more than pain and lies
The memories you should have left behind
Digging holes to shelter in
You couldn’t climb back out again
Now your silence won’t stop screaming in my mind
Hope or no hope with nothing in between
Death beats suffering death beats dead beats
Hope or no hope with nothing in between
Death beats memories death beats dead beats
Dead beats, death beats, dead beats
I know that I’ll never know, I know that i’l try to do better
I took your word for it but there was meaning in between
The lines you never wrote at your last scene
If my chest is left in shatters and my soul is blackening
I hope it was enough to give you peace
You’ll rest In peace now and forever and ever

Bone collector

Ive tried for a while but you’re not getting back
We’ve been off the line for a while
You are the loneliest person that I have ever known
Calmly collecting your bones
And I stand on the outside but im constantly looking in
You look dead on the inside with no reason to live
Always alone with no better place to go
Just try to understand where I’m coming from
Wherever you are and your perception of time
You should’ve been better by now

Paint it black

Take your time it might make sense,
Im not sure what we’re up against
All I know is that we’re hardly hanging on
It will be past tense when forever ends
I can’t say I look forward to it
Let’s make this last before it’s gone
But you won’t promise anything
- I won’t be there to see it through
Our days are only numbered by your grace
And I always find our future painted over in your eye’s
Paint it black this circle collides
Sakes are biting tails, we’re out of time
Let black birds fly, let stars fall down
Because you won’t promise anything
- I can’t be there to see it through
Our days are only numbered by your grace
and I always find our future painted over in your eyes

Lose your faith
02:57
|
|||
|
Take a step back, keep breathing, everybody’s leaving
A sense of deception, you never learned the lesson
You might start a war for love but you’ll always make sure
that it’s never enough
White flags wave but never make a difference
And who fights for the other side?
It just might be a failure to try looking for some sense in this
You’re making all the same mistakes
again and again, lose your faith
In everyone, everything a martyr without company
You’ve lost enough for a lifetime but it was done by your own hands
Your tongue split ends to all the friends and any chance you ever had
Oh so confused. It’s never an excuse for failing all the way
You are oh so confused but it’s not an excuse for failing all the way
Sinking your own ship, clenching your fists it won’t change a thing if you won’t say you’re sorry
Starting wars for love is not enough when white flags wave to call it off

i'm telling this right now, i'm not giving up
i've placed it all on the line
we're here to stay; we're here to shine.
things are a bit different, but it's still the same thing.
our future isn't ending, give it a chance and you will see.
we've regrouped to continue on
it might take some getting used to, but in the end, it'll work out
we're not in this for them, we're doing this for me and you.

Venom
03:46

Patiently pending, waiting for the right time
To tell you that its time that I should be calling it a night
But I’ve come to far to call it off and I know you know its not that far off
Stars might fall down, don’t put the lights out make me stay for the night
Let’s lose our track of time, hold me throughout the night
Leave as the morning comes but don’t stay away too long
I’ve tasted the poison again, tongue tied from the venom I guess
We’re all alone, I know
Stars might fall down, don’t put the lights out
Make me stay for the night
Waiting for the part where I let you down
I’ll dry the disappointment from your eyes
Our end’s been painting pictures in my mind
You are one of everyone I left behind
Ive tasted the poison again, tongue tied from the venom I guess
I’ll act like I couldn’t care less, inside I will cease to exist
But I love you more than you’ll ever know
Let’s lose our track of time, hold me throughout the night
Leave as the morning comes but don’t stay away too long

A last chance to send a message
A last chance to wave the flag of absolute retreat
I owe all those who came before me
But the pressure is mounting heavily
And I can’t stand strong anymore
Likewise in between four eyes
We’ll push the barr until we’re both on fire
Filled with contradictions
Shit happens when you never listen and learn
Just watch it burn, just learn or watch it burn
We’ll take turns in lacking words
To describe what we’ve become
It’s never over ti’ll it’s done but we’ve let it go too far
We have forgotten about history
and so we endlessly try to invent the wheel
In lack of better things to say, I know we surely lost our way
When all the one’s that get hurt have no room in your world
Last but not forgotten, you will never fit in here
We’ll make amends again, for everything we did
We’ll make amends again

Bend and break
03:21
|

|
I am wandering, no specific place I’m after
Avoiding shame and constantly untied from all of it
If I’m alone I can’t disappoint you
You break your back to oblige, to find you’re dead inside
A call for arms that reach as far as mine do not
I’d give it all to give it up, i’m giving up
You’re not here to settle for less, acting like a pawn in their game
Losing sleep, not considering what you really need
Abort the mission of fitting in, move along when they won’t understand
Know that you can bend but never break
You break your back to oblige, to find you’re dead inside
Eventually you won’t fit in the lifeboat and nothing will be left to keep you afloat
A call for arms that reach as far as mine do not
I’d give it all to give it up, i’m giving up
I am wandering, avoiding shame from all of this
I won’t disappoint you again
You break your back to oblige, to find you’re dead inside
Eventually you won’t fit in the lifeboat and nothing will be left to keep you afloat
You break your back to oblige, to find

Stretch arm strong
03:00
|

I always seem to fall so far behind
Every morning its the same, nothing gets me out of bed
I’ll complain about it every single time
Please just let me have some space but include me all the while
I’m known to fear the worst, its my one and only curse
And it’s keeping me forever stuck inside
When my frame becomes a prison
there is no one that could understand a thing but I’ll swear I’m fine
My ribs turn
This lack of routine make my days fade (everything the same)
Turning into something I can’t face (one more day to waste)
Nothing seem important and I’m pushing it away
Save some grace for another day
And I want to stretch arm strong but my ribs turn (I’ve had it up to here)
Piercing through whatever backbone I have left (explosions in my chest)
When nothing seems important I’ll be pushing it away
Save some grace for another day
Welcome back into the world when you’re done with what you’ve earned
Letting go isn’t always giving up
his lack of routine make my days fade (everything the same)
Turning into something I can’t face (one more day to waste)
Nothing seem important and I’m pushing it away
Save some grace for another day
And I want to stretch arm strong but my ribs turn (I’ve had it up to here)
Piercing through whatever backbone I have left (explosions in my chest)
When nothing seems important I’ll be pushing it away
Save some grace for another day

Szczecin
00:50

I got up set for leaving, enough is enough
This bullshit macho nonsense feels like throwing up
Szczecin is where all hope goes to die
No one heard a single song they all wanted to fight
I got up set for leaving, enough is enough
This bullshit macho nonsense feels like throwing up
Szczecin is where all hope goes to die
No one heard a single song they just wanted to fight

In fear of any consequence I’ll retreat into dark corners again
The world just doesn’t make any sense, it will give to claim it back again
One last try to set it right, just decide because we’re running out of time
I feel the pain just by observing, this life is so much less than you deserve
One last try to set it right, just decide because we’re running out of time
And I know if the floor gets cold
we’ll be making statements no matter if they’re bold
Listen to reason, you’re begging for treason
Please let me go, you’re really not listening
And you are not helping me
I feel the pain just by observing
This life is so much less than you deserve
I tend to reach, to expect the worst
I live and breathe but I feel the curse
Of being different and sorry about existing in the first place
One last try to set it right, just decide because we’re running out of time

I love it. Have to agree with still bummed: this packs an emotional punch but rocks hard. I've played this whole album repeatedly over the last week which is unusual for me. Exhilarating, poignant, intelligent, melodic.

Wow absolutely love every song - positive engergy blasting through my ears - heart beats per minute at 222 - every strum and hit and shout deserves its own memory - when this album plays, heaven is an ocean of sound waves and the cover art of heathcliff is printed on my surfboard - especially enjoyed all bass lines ;)
