In the dead of night
There’s a fire in the sky
It leads to a home
When the lights go down
The monsters come out
We are not alone
I used to have a normal life
Far from terrors in the night
Just my uncle and me
But they took me away
Said I need a place to stay
Told me it’ll be okay
There’s lead paint on the walls
And asbestos through the halls
And an endless flight of stairs
Mrs. Frieda starts to wheeze
And I just can’t believe
This can’t be happening to me
(Chorus)
I feel the shock starting to hit
More than a feeling, I know that this is it
We’re all terrible and freakish kids
At least we know we’re halfway home
Now I lie awake in bed
‘Cause there’s voices in my head
And a fire up on the roof
Well, the trouble starts again
But at least now I’ve got friends
Who are just as weird as me
Men in Black come around
So wild dogs get put down
Then a bomb went off in town
I got shot in the face
But I guess I’ll be okay
For us, it’s just another day
[Chorus]
I keep waiting for this nightmare to end
Until then I can pretend
An angel can just let this demon be
My friends are all freaks like me
[Chorus]

Voice Of Reason
04:57
|

Alone
She's drowning in despair
Gasping out for air
And finding none to spare
Wounded
Weak and cursing God
Meek and spinning 'round
Infinite spiral down
She cries
In never ending night
My shadows blanket down
And soothe her growing fright
The rage
She's just so full of hate
I draw a crooked smile
Your dark lord awaits
(Chorus)
I smile
You suffer
My hands
Your throat
Drink deep
The sorrow
And taste
Your guilt
Built up
To crumble
My house
Of Cards
One and
One thousand
Knives stab
Your heart
A voice
Small and hard to hear
Whispers in your mind
You have so much to fear
You're lost
But I can be your friend
Make the torment end
Then start it all again
You're hurt
Staring daggers at the world
Questioning your worth
Scared little girl
Let me save you time
All you are is mine
Not even worth a dime
[Chorus]
You think that I've been beat
And dare I cry defeat
My name will travel on
Hunter of the shadows
Haunter of the night
Immortal and eternal
I will rise
Blood is on your hands
I was just the knife
You're still a hopeless wretch
A lamp without a light
Someday
Shadows will appear
You'll know that I draw near
And remember how you feared
[Chorus]

1,001 Scars
02:46

I am nothing at all
I'm just dirt like you said
If I pretend, I'll just make it worse
What good are friends, they'll just make you hurt
Is it my mind, that's just out of place
Or is it the scars on my face
Am I a waste of space
Has something been lost that can't be replaced
If I could bear my soul
I'd say I want so much more
But now I'll take solace since
I know you will burn in Hell
How many scars must it take
Before the meek stand up straight
And how many days will it take
To forgive these mistakes
I will escape this dark, evil place
On eagle's wings, fly me away

Blood Rhino Rides Again
02:32
|
|||
Mushroom clouds blot out the sky
Above a dark and lonely town
Where monsters roam, and children fight
And danger abounds
Conspiracies, and mysteries
And debts to repay
Glowing eyes, and gnashing teeth
To drive darkness away
So, on we ride
Into the fire
With blood in our eyes
It's down to the wire
We'll charge into the storm
With all our burdons borne
As we watch the flames rise
We ride, oh we ride

It's in your eyes
And I'm not surprised
You made your choice
And that's alright
Baby, I can't stay
But don't be afraid
I've got to go somewhere
Far away
Where I can feel the sun
And the ancient ones
And the fire and thunder
Guide my way
Today, you see
I've got to be free
Like a condor gliding
In the wind
Like a condor in the wind
Like a condor in the wind
Don't you cry
I will survive
Just like I've
Always done
Yeah, I'll get mine
If it'll take some time
Can't say who'll be
By my side
Today, you see
I've got to be free
Like a condor soaring
Through the wind
I'll fly away
And I'll start again
Broken hearts
They'll fade away
'Cause I'm a condor in the wind
'Cause I'm a condor in the wind
Wish I could find the words to reach ya
But I'm somewhere like Chichen Itza
