Glistening Flesh

I try so hard to see things in a better way
Knowing deep inside it's not right
When I stop thinking every day about you
I'll be in the clear once more
It truly hurts to think
That I may have to let go of you
No pain, no gain it seems
And I know that I want the best for me

It's over, no more from your trauma dreams
Or your failed promises
It's over, I will wise up as I grow older
To see through glistening flesh

You left a mark on my burdened soul
It will take so long to heal
I can taste freedom from my longing for something good
From you there's nothing
It truly burns me within
That I lost something I could have had with you
I will paint your skin
With the lies you told me, and the cold manipulation

It's over, no more from your trauma dreams
Or your failed promises
It's over, I will wise up as I grow older
To see through glistening flesh

Let me move on
Let me live
I see beyond
Glistening flesh

Time will heal all wounds
I will be rid of you
Signs that I'll improve
Eye me around every corner
You left me in disorder
You left me in disarray

It's over, no more from your trauma dreams
Or your failed promises
It's over, I will wise up as I grow older
To see through glistening flesh

What lies above hides what is beneath
A smooth face hiding a scarred heart
To see through glistening flesh
Is to win the war on cold hearts

Ballistic

Make swift exit from me
Or I will go to ballistics
And paint this city red
And the blood will rest upon you
You turn me the wrong way
One too many times
And I can't tolerate it
And you wallow in it all

I'm going over the edge

Imp in sheep's clothing
Succubus of the mind
I'm going over the edge
I'm going over the edge
I'm going over the edge
I'm going over the edge

Ballistic

Make swift exit from me
Or I will go to ballistics
And bring ruin to everything
And you will be the last of me
You rub me the wrong way
Only one last time
And I cannot take it
And you won't hurt me again

I'm going over the edge

Imp in sheep's clothing
Succubus of the mind
I'm going over the edge
I'm going over the edge
I'm going over the edge
I'm going over the edge

Ballistic

This is my last stand
I will bring ruin
To all we all hold dear
If I find you anywhere near
I'm going feral soon
I'll go apeshit from you
And your mind games
And I will not blink

As I go ballistic

I'm going over the edge
I'm going over the edge
I'm going over the edge
I'm going over the edge

Imp in sheep's clothing
Succubus of the mind
Devil in fancy red dress
This is the last time

I'm going over the edge
I'm going to ballistics

Armageddon

The end times will never arise
The bloody end I've prophesied
Sold to foolish sods every way
Stupidly believe in the end of days
Armageddon

I'm a con with the darkest heart
My words are a weapon, lies like art
Poisoning the well for the "heretics"
My polemics consist of all but shit
Armageddon

Hellbent on spreading words of venom
I am the keeper of light in God's eye
Hellbent on spreading words of venom
I am the keeper of light in God's eye

We bow to him
We swear to him
Armageddon
We bow to him
We swear to him
Armageddon

I Have To Follow

You say that I have to follow
Who says that I am a dog to begin with?
You insist that I have to follow
With my will, I'm not one to mess with
No one can lead us into the fire
Without throwing a funeral pyre

They say that I have to follow
Who's the king and who makes the rules?
They insist that I have to follow
He who hammers down us all is cruel
Not one man can lead us to death
Without a payback for his debt

I have to follow
The world is so hollow
I have to follow
The depths of freedom so shallow

Can he make us all equals?
Can he bridge the gap separating us all?
Will he live on his promises?
Or will he treat us all like piss?

I have to follow
The world is so hollow
I have to follow
The depths of freedom so shallow

I will not fall for a self-proclaimed king
Who did not fight for such a petty thing
I will not collect my freedom to give them up
To him, this life is mine

You say that I have to follow
Who will make me a willing doormat?
They say that I have to follow
If I defy him, will he take off my head?
Bring yourself down to our league
And with the suffering you've brought to us
I'll make you fucking see
And then you will plead

I won't follow you
The world is just too hollow

Spiritual Immolation

Open the doors for my past demons
To fly right back in, kicking & screaming
Why don't you open it further for them
You seem to enjoy the chaos ensuing
You'll get yours', mark my words now
I'll put you in the position you put me in
And then you can swallow the laughter
That you so seem to enjoy
You'll pay for this, you'll burn for this
You'll suffer spiritual immolation
You'll scream for this, you'll bleed for this
You'll suffer spiritual immolation
Your heart will break
And I won't reach out my hand
And heal you again
