We are the end, we are the end of all (5X)
You are the end, the lions of the underground
Take a stand, raise your hands and bang your head down
We are the end of all
Mother nature has addicted
So many second chances
As we all know in this place
Everything breaks
For better or for worse
We all have made mistakes
By butchering the terrain
Square one, from my lungs
To show the world I still give a fuck
Prepare yourselves for judgement day
{CHORUS}
I found a demon inside my head
I'll never know if I'm alive or dead but we..
(We) won't bite our tongues
(We) will sing this song
Til it goes on and on and..
On and on and on and on..
Do you feel bad? You should
Cannot undo what you've done
Its inevitable that we cannot bend the rules
And in this cold hell
Everything breaks
Have you got demons inside your head
Tell me, do you feel alive or dead
Cause we won't bite our tongues
We'll sing this song
Til' it goes on and on and on
(Have you got demons inside your head)
{CHORUS}
We live our lives and destroy all in our way
Pollution, destruction calls the end of days
Invalid slaughter of such carnage and decay
Extinction, ignorance brings to light
The error of our ways
The error of our ways

How Do You Feel?

How could you do this to me?
This was not supposed to be
The deception and consequences
You made me feel
Like I have made a mistake
Your eyes, the way you looked at me
Staring and glaring with your malice fucking heart
Oh, how hard I tried
It must have been the wrong time
Now get out of my way
Get out of my way
So tell me how you fucking feel
Are you suppressed and are you alone
I'm moving forward living this life
All my decisions led me to here
You will never make me break down or shed a tear
{CHORUS}
I have made peace with all thats in my way
(I won't look back)
Never once have I tried to make you stay
(Just leave me be)
Count your last steps, keep them forward
Adapt to absence, pursue wayward
Walk away don't pretend you're lost
Its better off this way
( If I had something to prey to
I'd prey for change
I'd prey for a better hope
In hoping nothing stays the same
If I had one dying wish
I would wish back all the pain
I'm gonna sing for a better hope
I'm gonna make sure nothing stays the same 2X )
{CHORUS}
So tell me how you fucking feel

Don't Hold Back

Don't hold back
Make your own pathway
Regret don't exist
Freedoms a gift and you get what you give
So give
You know you could start a war
All the anger that builds
All the times you've hurt
You will never get the chance to say goodbye
To those who left
{CHORUS}
So grow some wings, make your mistakes
Make up your mind, you're out of time
(If you wait here)
There is no second chance to be free
Don't hold back, give it your all
Don't wait for the light of day to fall, it won't be long
Don't decease yourself so much it crawls
Step back
\
This is the time to stand up and say
That it was all for the memories
They give me fuel to stand here and scream
So scream these words right back to me
There will never be enough time with the ones you love
Express your anger and find a solution
To love is to be free and given hope is all you need
Spread your faith around me
So grow some wings, make your mistakes
Make up your mind, you're out of time
If you wait here, there is no second chance to be free
Be your own sun, be the happiness that shines in their hearts
Take a breath of hate and spit it right back, back
Back at the world
{CHORUS 2}
So grow some wings make your mistakes
Make up your mind, you're out of time
If you wait here, there'll be no second chance to be free
Don't hold back, give it your all
Don't wait for the light of day to fall
So show your colours, don't fade away
With freedom comes life and a hunger to strive, oh
And they could disappear
Before your eyes

Party hard!
You didn't come here to stand around
(Just listen to me)
So move and get your feet up off of the ground
Ya'll pass out and fucking drink too much
It'll be the best night of your life
(Get fucked)
This goes out to the drinkers that drink
All the shots only straight with no chase
(Drinks all round)
(Chug 8X)
(Nah 14X)
(Eyeah)
(Nah 14X)
(Eyeah)
Yeah, fuck, yeah, fuck, yeah, fuck
Everybody up
Ten beers down
Kiss the ground
Where am I now
I've blacked out
Show me what you're made of
Make some noise

Break The Body
01:50
|

|
Put your faith in my hands
Use my eyes to see red
This is your chance to shed
Amongst a world completely bent
Come clean of all your regrets
Don't spend your time dwelling on the maybe's
And looking for all the reasons
Why things can never work out
I have seen wrong, I have done wrong
But I am here now and I will be here waiting
If you pass the avenue of broken time
And you're scared you'll never get it back
Then don't look back, don't hold back
We have more to find than just a dead end with hurt eyes
You think you're seeing something
You're actually seeing nothing
And you're feeling something
That ends with nothing
So you're feeling nothing
Listen to these words I preach
You standing in front of me
A field of survivors listening for the next step
Listening to me, not the man in charge of death
If I asked him to describe a wealthy man
He paints a picture of a suit, tie, wedding ring
And a three story house mirroring
The reflection of apparent happiness
If I asked a blind man, what do you think his eyes see
I'm certain he ain't concerned with material luxuries
This is the point I'm trying to drive home
With a clear view while you're kicked down to your knees
You may bleed but that's what makes you alive
Free your mind and take charge of your life
This is the only story that matters
A true miracle admitted by ignorance
And sheltered by the act of prejudice
You are the lions of the underground
We are your voice and we are proud
With vibrations travelling through your feet
At the speed of sound
It's time to release the real world
And break the law with our amplified mouths
You are the back bone
So break the legs that hold these buildings up high
And break the body so the spirit
Under this broken system can come alive

One hand on your chest
One hand in the air
Repeat the words I say
You won't get the best of me
The strength that I built was taken away
I can't wait to rebuild myself someday
The lessons I've learnt will never be forgotten
And I'll be damned if I have to sit and rot here
While world maps get redrawn
Bury all your fears
I've been trying to find
(I've been trying to find)
A way, away from this desperation
A way out, a way out from here
We all are from the same world
We walk til' our toes touch the sand
Through hell to save ourselves
To break through the wall in your fucking head
Bury all your fears
You're still alive
Now find your way back
Up, up, show me what you've found
Up, and show me who you are now
Up, up, scream it out loud
Pass the strength you touched along the way
When I found emptiness I found myself
My prowess matched by tip toe-ing through hell
We are a frangible crowd amidst a field of fakes
The first page in the beginning of a new race
