Welcome to the circus
Welcome to the shit show
Just another freak show
Hang your hat and hate at the door
It’s a game of torture
Souls are made to order
Everything you wanted and more
You gotta kill somebody to thrill somebody
Everybody’s gotta reason to bleed
You gotta fuck somebody to know somebody
That motherfucker ain’t me
Am I the only one
That doesn’t buy into the lies
Am I the only one
That doesn’t wear a disguise
Cause If I can’t break it
And I can’t change it
Then tell me how will I know
Am I the only one
That isn’t just here for the show
Welcome to the Circus
Grab your favorite stones
They came for broken bones
That’s what happens when you sign on the line
There’s no need for excuses
Everybody loses
The only way you’ll ever win is to die
You gotta burn somebody to learn somebody
Everybody’s got a Jekyll and Hyde
You gotta curse somebody to hurt somebody
Everybody needs a reason to die
Am I the only one
That doesn’t buy into the lies
Am I the only one
That doesn’t wear a disguise
Cause If I can’t break it
And I can’t change it
Then tell me how will I know
Am I the only one
That isn’t just here for the show
Welcome to the Circus
You gotta hide your face
Sell them what they bought cha
Teach them what they taught cha
You gotta hide your veins
This is how they gut cha
Right before they cut ya
You gotta hide your pain
Ugly how they rule you
That’s just how they screw you
You gotta hide your rage
Everyone’s earned this
Welcome to the circus
Ticky ticky tasket
Time to burn the casket
Time to burn this motherfucker down
Am I the only one
That doesn’t buy into the lies
Am I the only one
That doesn’t wear a disguise
Cause If I can’t break it
And I can’t change it
Then tell me how will I know
Am I the only one
That isn’t just here for the show
Welcome to the Circus

AfterLife
04:03
|
|||
I’ve heard the rumors that the rumors all were true
They may be looking for me but they’re coming for you
I’ll paint a picture you can better understand
They promise diamonds but they pay in sand
It goes on and on and on and on and on
It’s an old broken record stuck on the same song
It goes on and on and on and on and on
You all know it’s wrong but you’re singing along
I don’t want to wait for heaven to change me
I don’t wanna have to wait for the fall
I don’t wanna wait for heaven to change things
I don’t wanna wait, I don’t wanna wait
I don’t wanna wait for heaven to change this
I don’t wanna have to fall on the knife
Forever after, this disaster
Bring the AfterLife
You’d cut your nose off just to spite your fuckin’ face
That’s who you are, you know your place
You let them lead you by the throat with broken hands
So how’s the view beneath their shoe and what’s your plan
It goes on and on and on and on and on
It’s an old broken record stuck on the same song
It goes on and on and on and on and on
We all know it’s wrong but we’re singing along
I don’t want to wait for heaven to change me
I don’t wanna have to wait for the fall
I don’t wanna wait for heaven to change things
I don’t wanna wait, I don’t wanna wait
I don’t wanna wait for heaven to change this
I don’t wanna have to fall on the knife
Forever after, this disaster
Bring the AfterLife
I don’t wanna wait for heaven to change me
I don’t wanna wait
I don’t wanna wait for heaven
I don’t wanna wait
I don’t wanna wait
I don’t wait for heaven to save us
I don’t wanna wait
I don’t wait for heaven to save us
I don’t wanna wait
I don’t wanna wait
I don’t want to wait for heaven to change me
I don’t wanna have to wait for the fall
I don’t wanna wait for heaven to change things
I don’t wanna wait, I don’t wanna wait
I don’t wanna wait for heaven to change this
I don’t wanna have to fall on the knife
Forever after, this disaster
Bring the AfterLife
Bring the AfterLife

Times Like These
03:29
|

It’s nights like this under a harvest moon
It came too fast and it’s gone too soon
A wilted rose and a frozen tomb
A memory for the wind, anyways
Anybody noticed that the sky is falling
Are we all just happy in the rain
Am I the only one who hears the sirens calling
Am I The only one who feels the pain
It’s Times Like These
When the sorrow shadows all the laughter
Times Like These
When the hurt goes on and on forever
Times like these
I wanna fade away
I read all the pages from left to right
I took one in the morning and one at night
A fire still burns but it’s cold inside
And it’s all that I can do, anyway
No one wants to talk about the end is coming
Pointing fingers - handing out the blame
If I gave you answers to all your questions
Could you change or would you stay the same
Cause it’s Times Like These
When left is right and forwards backwards
Times like these
When days and nights just roll together
Times Like These
I wanna fade away
Fade away
Times like these
I wanna fade away
Cause it’s times like these
When the sorrow shadows all the laughter
Times Like These
When it seems like nothing worse can happen
Times like these
I wanna fade away
It’s times like these
I wanna fade away
It’s time like these
In times like these
It’s nights like this under a harvest moon
it came too fast and it’s gone too soon
A wilted rose and a frozen tomb
A memory for the wind, anyways
Anybody noticed that the sky is falling
Are we all just happy in the rain
Am I the only one who hears the sirens calling
Am I The only one who feels the pain
It’s Times Like These
When the sorrow shadows all the laughter
Times Like These
When the hurt goes on and on forever
Times like these
I wanna fade away
I read all the pages from left to right
I took one in the morning and one at night
A fire still burns but it’s cold inside
And it’s all that I can do, anyway
No one wants to talk about the end is coming
Pointing fingers - handing out the blame
If I gave you answers to all your questions
Could you change or would you stay the same
Cause it’s Times Like These
When left is right and forwards backwards
Times like these
When days and nights just roll together
Times Like These
I wanna fade away
Fade away
Times like these
I wanna fade away
Cause it’s times like these
When the sorrow shadows all the laughter
Times Like These
When it seems like nothing worse can happen
Times like these
I wanna fade away
It’s times like these
I wanna fade away
It’s time like these
In times like these

Roll Dem Bones
03:19
|
|||
This will be the last tear I shed for you
Some say they kill for god
And some kill for sport
The only difference makes no difference to me
It just depends on what looks better in court
Cause it’s a knock down drag out everybody bow down
Sick and twisted game that you play
There are no resolutions in the broken institutions
Or the funny bloody money you crave
This is the last tear
This is the last time
There was a time that I believed I could’ve changed it all
Somebody got to me
Somebody’s go to pay
There was a time that I believed I could’ve changed the world
Now I can’t now I don’t now I won’t
So roll dem bones
Puff your chest out at me
Just what the fuck were you thinking
I wrote the book on that shit
Bound it backed it burned it all down
I’m a bully beating reaper cheating super villain king of heathens
Everything you know that you’re not
You’re like a half wit parlor trick
No one ever gave a shit
I’m laughing on the day that you drop
This is the last tear
This is the last time
There was a time that I believed I could’ve changed it all
Somebody got to me
Somebody’s go to pay
There was a time that I believed I could’ve changed the world
Now I can’t now I don’t now I won’t
So roll dem bones

Pick Up Behind You
03:08
|
|||
Do you remember when you said this wasn’t real
Life was just a game we play and time was made to kill
Do you remember when you said we never laughed
You set me up for failure then you threw me in the trash
I’ve forgotten how heavy you are
You’re becoming so hard to hold on to
No matter how far or how hard you fall
I’ll be there to pick up behind you
Do you remember how the pulse felt in my chest
Or did you simply block it out, erase it like the rest
Do you remember how your heart would never change
You told me as you turned away and left me with the pain
I’ve forgotten how heavy you are
You’re becoming so hard to hold on to
No matter how far or how hard you fall
I’ll be there to pick up behind you
I’ve forgotten how heavy you are
You’re becoming so hard to hold on to
No matter how far or how hard you fall
I’ll be there to pick up behind you

Judgment Day
04:52
|
|||
You gotta watch for the shot
Beware the ricochet
Dance dance motherfucker
Til the fat bitch sings
You get one for the chamber
Two for good health
Know a little about evil
And a lot about hell
Playing ring around the daisies
With a shotgun shell
If you’re gonna take a life
Better keep it to yourself
Seems every time I think there’s a little bit of hope
Someone comes out swinging
With a deadman’s rope
Damned if I do
Damned if I don’t
Damned if I will
Damned if I won’t
Doomed if I try
Doomed if I fail
Damn you all to hell
I’m no angel I’m no savior
And I’ve never been a saint
Well I know I’m not the devil
Cause I still can feel the pain
Walk through fire and through brimstone
And there were no pearly gates
I’ll be sure to ask about it
On my final Judgement Day
Two tears in a bucket
One down the drain
Dance dance motherfucker
Til the war drums play
I know a little bout death
Alot about pain
I ain’t ever seen a storm
That don’t end in rain
Gotta pay the pied piper
Every dog will have it’s day
I don’t stress the mess
It’s just all so cliche
You can run around in circles
But it always ends the same
You’ll be swinging from the end
Of a deadman’s chain
Doomed if I do
Doomed if I don’t
Doomed if I will
Doomed if I won’t
Damned if I try
Damned if I fail
God Damn you all to hell
I’m no angel I’m no savior
And I’ve never been a saint
Well I know I’m not the devil
Cause I still can feel the pain
Walk through fire and through brimstone
And there were no pearly gates
I’ll be sure to ask about it
On my final Judgement Day
Watch for the shot
Motherfucker
I’m no angel I’m no savior
And I’ve never been a saint
Well I know I’m not the devil
Cause I still can feel the pain
Walk through fire and through brimstone
And there were no pearly gates
I’ll be sure to ask about it
On my final Judgement Day
In my final resting place
When I finally found my grace
I’ll be sure to ask about it
On my final Judgement Day

IOU
04:27

I wish someone would wake me
Cause I can’t sleep at all
Stuck in purgatory
Waiting for the fall
Auditioned all the endings
I find it hard to tell
Is it better to serve in heaven
Or better to reign in hell
Say my name
And watch the fire grow
Curse my name
A demon gets it’s horns
See my face
The one behind my eyes
I’m a son of a bitch - I’m as bad as it gets
And I’ll be that til I die
I wish someone would wake me
Cause I can’t sleep at all
Stuck in purgatory
Waiting for the fall
Auditioned all the endings
I find it hard to tell
Is it better to serve in heaven
Or better to reign in hell
You’ve never known pain before
Cain before
But I’m gonna show you
You’ve never been drained before
Shamed before
But I’d love to share
You’ve never know insane before
Deranged before
I’m here to show you
I owe you nothing
Feel my pain
I bet you can’t relate
Know my rage
The one you instigate
Hate this place
The one in which you hide
The devil I know or the devil I don’t
I just can’t pick a side
I wish someone would wake me
Cause I can’t sleep at all
Stuck in purgatory
Waiting for the fall
Auditioned all the endings
I find it hard to tell
Is it better to serve in heaven
Or better to reign in hell
You’ve never known pain before
Cain before
But I’m gonna show you
You’ve never been drained before
Shamed before
But I’d love to share
You’ve never know insane before
Deranged before
I’m here to show you
I owe you nothing
I wish someone would wake me
Wake me up
You’ve never known pain before
Cain before
But I’m gonna show you
You’ve never been drained before
Shamed before
But I’d love to share
You’ve never know insane before
Deranged before
I’m here to show you
I owe you nothing
I owe you absolutely nothing
I owe you nothing

Thanks For Asking
03:18
|
|||
Cause I’m alright
Thanks for asking
There’s a million things I’d love to say
But you don’t want to hear
Yeah it’s alright
I don’t need your blessings
I’d rather face the wrath of angels
Than the devil in the mirror
I don’t think god is listening
She told us to follow but left us behind
I’ve never seen an angel
But I know the devil and he told me I’m fine
What doesn’t kill you will only make you stronger
That’s what everyone keeps telling me
I’d rather capsize than chase an old horizon
Throw me back into the deadest of seas
I know that god is laughing
She gave us our wings but never taught us to fly
They say the end is coming
And if that’s true well I don’t think I mind
I always knew it would come to this
Heaven or hell I can’t tell which is which
I don’t think god is listening
She told us to follow but left us behind
I’ve never seen an angel
But I know the devil and he told me I’m fine
I know that god is laughing
She gave us our wings but never taught us to fly
They say the end is coming
And if that’s true well I don’t think I mind
Roll roll roll
Keep on moving ahead
Roll roll roll
Guess I’ll sleep when I’m dead

Blood And Tar
03:22
|

Peel away the skin that hides your face
Show me who you really are
Underneath that broken smile you wear
You’re twisted ugly and bizarre (Just like me)
I’m tired of pretending that this isn’t ending
I’m not sure which side of you I fear the most
Enemy that is the tag you gave me
I guess that makes me your favorite scar
Enemy you pushed until I’m broken
I’m what you made me
A badge of Blood and Tar
Crash and burn
You’d think you’d learn
Its almost like you love the pain
See if you can’t have it then no one will
You’re narcissistic and deranged (Just like me)
There’s so much deception that we’ve lost reception
I’m not sure which part of you I hate the most
Enemy that is the tag you gave me
I guess that makes me your favorite scar
Enemy you pushed until I’m broken
I’m what you made me
A badge of Blood and Tar
When we remember we are all mad
The mysteries disappear and life stands explained
Enemy that is the tag you gave me
I guess that makes me your favorite scar
Enemy you pushed until I’m broken
I’m what you made me
A badge of Blood and Tar

All I Know
05:11
|
|||
I don’t think that I’m crazy
Yeah but how would I know
When the voices remind me
That it’s all just for show
Well I thought I had answers
But the questions have changed
It’s so hard to feel anything
When I’ve only known pain
You can cast me out
And dig my hole
Spit on my grave
And curse my soul
You can hold me down
And not let go
But the devil you fear
Is all I know
And the road that’s less traveled
Well it’s all that I’ve known
Every time I look backwards
There’s still so far to go
If I’m born to be broken
Cold bloody and numb
Tell me why am I running
What am I running from
You can cast me out
And dig my hole
Spit on my grave
And curse my soul
You can hold me down
And not let go
But the devil you fear
Is all I’ve ever known
As I sit here in silence
All alone in myself
Who the hell would believe me
Better yet who’d I tell
I can tell
You can cast me out
And dig my hole
Spit on my grave
And curse my soul
You can hold me down
And not let go (hands on my throat)
But the devil you fear
Is all I known

Gold Gutter

Aww shit you know what time it is
Follow me down
I’d like to thank the world - for failing me
(Thank you all)
I’d count the ways, but that’d take days
And where would I begin
(With you and you and you and you)
I’d like to thank the bottom, for breaking me
(I owe you one)
And I’d like to thank the bible for sin
A pound of flesh
Won’t save your soul
Save your breath
Light the match
And look out below
Fingers to the sky
They’re pointed at you
Right at you motherfucker
Eye on the prize
Fist in the gold
And a foot in the gutter
I’d like to thank the world for blaming me
(You and you and you)
It is what is I did what I did to survive
(I’m not ashamed)
I’d like to thank you all for spitting on my grave
I know it makes you sick but I’m alive
(Still here)
Alive
A pound of flesh
Won’t save your soul
Save your breath
Light the match
And look out below
Fingers to the sky
They’re pointed at you
Right at you motherfucker
Eye on the prize
Fist in the gold
And a foot in the gutter
This is my favorite part of the movie
Naw I’m not fading to black
This is where you fucking scream
Bounce
A pound of flesh
Won’t save your soul
Save your breath
Light the match
And look out below
Fingers to the sky
They’re pointed at you
Right at you motherfucker
Eye on the prize
Fist in the gold
And a foot in the gutter

The End
03:43
|
|||
It’s hard to tell these days in which ways that we’re falling
I’m not sure anymore what’s right or what is wrong
It’s hurts to feel, to think, to know I may be nothing
But then again I’ve been wrong before
I’ve opened up my eyes
Just to wish that I’d stayed blind
Blacken out the sky
And let the arrows fly
It’s never over
Not til it’s over
Outside looking in
When do the nightmares end
Over and over
Until it’s over
The End
It’s hard to fathom just how fast we all are spinning
It’s hard to know that there’s a heaven beyond hell
It burns a hole right through my soul to think it’s ending
But then again, I’ve been right right before
I’ve opened up my eyes
Just to find out you’re all blind
Blacken out the sky
Let the arrows fly
It’s never over
Not til it’s over
Outside looking in
When do the nightmares end
Over and over
Until it’s over
Make a wish
Say a prayer
Hope that someone is out there
Build a bridge to Babylon
Then burn it to the ground
Burn it down
Blacken out the sky
Let the arrows fly
It’s never over
Not til it’s over
Outside looking in
When do the nightmares end
Over and over
Until it’s over
Just start it over
Until it’s over
Over and over
The End
