lyrics

You say those words, you show the world,
Showing your colours.
I fight for love, I love to fight,
Fighting the others.

Grating my ears, feeding my fears,
Trying to hold it.
Giving it all, going to fall,
Just waiting for it.

Don't you know the truth about me?
I, like the others, want to be free.

Paint marks the walls, the spot where I'll fall,
The writing has said it.
Love in my ears, blood in my tears,
More looking forward.

Don't you want to be free?
Are you so blind you can't see?
All for one and one for one.
Throw away the memories.

All for one, one for one.

The Machinery of our Armageddon built of our sinful arrogance.
And a hatred so pure it rips us apart and renders us soulless.
Tempted by ecstasy; loveless, pitiful ecstasy;
The empty hollow kind, these daggers in my mind.
Narcissistic self hate, post-modern pretence,
Logical fallacy, this reasoned insanity.

The fears I thought had faded,
without her love, will become jaded.
The dark and blackened world,
the fated double edged sword.

Again and again I'll escape.
I'll recreate the life I'll leave behind.
Again and again, repeat and repent.
Will I ever learn?

Messiah, messiah, where is the messiah?
The liars, the liars, false prophets and messiahs.
Messiah, messiah, where is the messiah?
The liars, the liars, false prophets our messiahs.

Vultures, hypocrites swarm in for the kill.
Victims, martyrs swarm in to be killed.
You have been warned of the saturation.

Bound in flesh we see all the lies;
and, dying, we see how they bind.
Rend our souls while they take our lives:
Innocence dies on the altar of mankind.
Hold on, hold on.
A life is in the balance.
Hold on, Hold on.
A friend is not free.
Wait here, wait here.
There no point turning back.
They'll never come for you.
Free me, believe me, let me live again.
Free me, believe me, let me breath again.
Sleep brings no joy to me, remembrance.
Flashing eyes found your soul in a mystery,
hiding from the fires of a dark and blackened world,
led by false messiahs; their message of hope
dipped in sweetened lies.

All for one and one for one!
