Welcome to The Family Lyrics

Hey kid
(Hey kid)
Do I have your attention?
I know the way you’ve been livin’
Life so reckless, tragedy endless
Welcome to the family
Hey
There’s somethin’ missin’
Only time will alter your vision
Never in question, lethal injection
Welcome to the family

Not long ago you’d find the answers were so crystal clear
Within a day you find yourself livin’ in constant fear
Can you look at yourself now?
Can you look at yourself?!
You can’t win this fight

And in a way it seems there’s no one to call
When our thoughts are so numb and
Our feelings unsure
We all have emptiness inside
We all have answers to find
But you can’t win this fight

Hey
(Hey Kid)
I have to question,
What’s with the violent aggression?
Details blurry, lost ’em too early
Welcome to the family
Hey
Why won’t you listen?
Can’t help the people you’re missin’
It’s been done, a casualty re-run
Welcome to the family

I’ll try and help you with the things that can’t be justified
I need to warn you that there is no way to rationalize
So have you figured it out now?
So have you figured it out?!
You can’t win this fight

And in a way it seems there’s no one to call
When our thoughts are so numb and
Our feelings unsure
We all have emptiness inside
We all have answers to find
But you can’t win this fight

Coming for you
And all mankind
I’ve lost my mind
Psychotic, Rapid dementia
I won’t be fine

I see, you’re a king who’s been dethroned
(Been dethroned)
Cast out, in a world you’ve never known
(Never known)
Stand down; Place your weapon by your side
(By your side)
It’s our war; In the end we’ll surely lose but that’s all right
(You’ll surely lose to me)

So have you figured it out now?
So have you figured it out?!

And, in a way it seems there’s no-one to call
When our thoughts are so numb and
Our feelings unsure
We all have emptiness inside
We all have answers to find
But you can’t win this fight

Keep inside
Where nothing’s fine
I lost my mind
You’re not invited
So step aside
I lost my

Keep inside
Where nothing’s fine
I lost my mind
You’re not invited
So step aside
I lost my

Unholy Confessions Lyrics

“I’ll try,” she said as he walked away.
“Try not to lose you.”
Two vibrant hearts could change.
Nothing tears the being more than deception,
unmasked fear.
“I’ll be here waiting” tested and secure.

Nothing hurts my world,
just affects the ones around me
When sin’s deep in my blood,
you’ll be the one to fall.

“I wish I could be the one,
the one who won’t care at all
But being the one on the stand,
I know the way to go, no one’s guiding me.
When time soaked with blood turns its back,
I know it’s hard to fall.
Confided in me was your heart
I know it’s hurting you, but it’s killing me.”

Nothing will last in this life,
our time is spent constructing,
now you’re perfecting a world… meant to sin.
Constrict your hands around me,
squeeze till I cannot breathe,
this air tastes dead inside me,
contribute to our plague.
Break all your promises,
tear down this steadfast wall,
restraints are useless here,
tasting salvation’s near.

Nothing hurts my world,
just affects the ones around me
When sin’s deep in my blood,
you’ll be the one to fall.

“I wish I could be the one,
the one who won’t care at all
But being the one on the stand,
I know the way to go, no one’s guiding me.
When time soaked with blood turns its back,
I know it’s hard to fall.
Confided in me was your heart
I know it’s hurting you, but it’s killing me.”

Unbound (The Wild Ride) Lyrics

Somewhere life is good, and things go as they should
it’s hard to find, but that’s alright yeah
Searching for the way, push harder everyday
It’s deep inside, that shining light yeah
But I’m scarred, by barriers placed in my path
I’m scathed

This ride that takes me through life
Leads me into darkness but emerges into light
No one can ever slow me down
I’ll stay unbound

Sometimes when we’re young, and always on the run
It gets so dark and I know that place yeah
So don’t be too concerned, you’ve got a lot to learn
Well so do I and we’ve got plenty of time yeah
Don’t fall off the track yet with so many races to go
Hold on

This ride that takes me through life
Leads me into darkness but emerges into light
No one can ever slow me down
I’ll stay unbound

Some live so wrong, with what we do is each his own
But living in fear, endless shame for countless years
I never lived in fear I knew I’d die another day
I never viewed my life as something… slipping away

Some live so wrong, with what we do is each his own
But living in fear, endless shame for countless years
I never lived in fear I knew I’d die another day
I never viewed my life as something… slipping away

There’s nothing here to take for granted
with each breath that we take
the hands of time strip youth from our bodies
And we fade
memories remain
as time goes on

There’s nothing here to take for granted
with each breath that we take
the hands of time strip youth from our bodies
And we fade
memories remain
as time goes on

Trashed and Scattered Lyrics

Keep on writing you’re just raping yourself
(Nothing can take my mind away from them)
Don’t you ask about me, ask ’bout somebody else
(Once I’ve fallen there’s many stories to tell)
I can feel it, won’t embrace it, it’s overwhelming how far you take it
(Stuck in a state of questioning)
And don’t you tell me you know we’re destined, you won’t convince me, I won’t listen
(Resentment building, you’ve put our lives on hold)

Trashed and scattered again, I’m feelin’ so low
You waste your breath while fuckin’ with me, my blood is so cold
My destination always unknown, I’ll find my way there
But you Goddamn Motherfuckers always wasting my time

I won’t be the victim, but the first to cast a stone
Sedated nights to the bar room fights as metropolis takes it’s toll
And don’t you try to stop me, it’s a place you’ll never know
Don’t try to judge or take shots at me, I’ll never let you seize control

Play your game and walk away, your integrity don’t mean shit, huah
Crawl on me you fucking parasite, and I’m gonna take you out

Label me, that’s fine, I’ll be somebody else
(Nothing in front of me but holes ahead)
Lie about my life, have a story to tell
(Lights went down, was on the edge and I fell)
Oh you’re so insightful, let me remind you to twist and break me, should make you worried
(Long way to go and you’re right there)
Two-faced liar, don’t try and know me, deceit brings fire, makes sure you can’t breathe
(Pick at pieces of my body below)

I never bothered with all the rumors, too much garbage
(All the same)
I’ll stand right here, come on you falsehood deceitful liar
(I know my destination – there’s no shame)
Don’t ever take my side, I know you’re never right, I’ll justify the means
(Nothing’s what it seems)
I’ll stand around and fight, but there’s no point tonight, been chained to this machine

Trashed and scattered again, I’m feelin’ so low
You waste your breath while fuckin’ with me, my blood is so cold
My destination’s always unknown, I’ll find my way there
But Goddamn Imposter are you out of your mind?

I walk down these roads alone and now you’re seen here
My feelings that I’m having towards you are perfectly clear (I control this ride)
My devils appetite is tonight and now I’m alright
But you Goddamn Motherfuckers always wasting my time

Play your game and walk away, your integrity don’t mean shit, huah
Crawl on me you fucking parasite, and I’m gonna take you out

I won’t be the victim, but the first to cast a stone
Sedated nights to the bar room fights as metropolis takes it’s toll
And don’t you try to stop me, it’s a place you’ll never know
Don’t try to judge or take shots at me, I’ll never let you seize control

[Guitar solo]

Don’t try and get the best of me
(No one can help but your own self)
City makes my body ache
(Lonely, don’t try and prey on me)
Feel your world keep dying, (Don’t try and get the best of me)
(No one can help but your own self)
No more use in tryin’ (City makes my body ache)
(Lonely, don’t try and prey on me)
And my body’s trashed and low, but to you I’ll never show myself or what’s inside
And I’ve seen it all before and I’ll settle the score,
I’ll never join your side

So Far Away Lyrics

Never feared for anything
Never shamed but never free
A life to heal the broken heart with all that it could

Lived a life so endlessly
Saw beyond what others see
I tried to heal your broken heart with all that I could

Will you stay?
Will you stay away forever?

How do I live without the ones I love?
Time still turns the pages of the book it’s burned
Place and time always on my mind
I have so much to say but you’re so far away

Plans of what our futures hold
Foolish lies of growing old
It seems we’re so invincible
The truth is so cold

A final song, a last request
A perfect chapter laid to rest
Now and then I try to find
A place in my mind
Where you can stay
You can stay away forever

How do I live without the ones I love?
Time still turns the pages of the book it’s burned
Place and time always on my mind
I have so much to say but you’re so far away

Sleep tight, I’m not afraid (not afraid)
The ones that we love are here with me
Lay away a place for me (place for me)
‘Cause as soon as I’m done I’ll be on my way
To live eternally

How do I live without the ones I love?
Time still turns the pages of the book it’s burned
Place and time always on my mind
And the light you left remains but it’s so hard to stay
When I have so much to say and you’re so far away

I love you, you were ready
The pain is strong and urges rise
But I’ll see you, when He lets me
Your pain is gone, your hands untied

So far away (so far)
And I need you to know
So far away (so far)
And I need you to, need you to know

Seize The Day Lyrics

Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
It’s empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over

I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time
But I’m too young to worry
These streets we travel on will undergo our same lost past

I found you here, now please just stay for a while
I can move on with you around
I hand you my mortal life, but will it be forever?
I’d do anything for a smile, holding you ’til our time is done
We both know the day will come, but I don’t want to leave you

I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time
But I’m too young to worry (a melody, a memory, or just one picture)

Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
It’s empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over

Newborn life replacing all of us, changing this fable we live in
No longer needed here so where do we go?
Will you take a journey tonight, follow me past the walls of death?
But girl, what if there is no eternal life?

I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time
But I’m too young to worry (a melody, a memory, or just one picture)

Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
It’s empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over

Trials in life, questions of us existing here, don’t wanna die alone without you here
Please tell me what we have is real

So, what if I never hold you, yeah, or kiss your lips again?
Woooaaah, so I never want to leave you and the memories of us to see
I beg don’t leave me

Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
It’s empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over

Trials in life, questions of us existing here, don’t wanna die alone without you here
Please tell me what we have is real

Silence you lost me, no chance for one more day [x2 then continues in the background]
I stand here alone
Falling away from you, no chance to get back home
I stand here alone
Falling away from you, no chance to get back home

A Little Piece of Heaven Lyrics

Before the story begins, is it such a sin,
For me to take what’s mine, until the end of time
We were more than friends, before the story ends,
And I will take what’s mine, create what God would never design

Our love had been so strong for far too long,
I was weak with fear that something would go wrong,
Before the possibilities came true,
I took all possibility from you

Almost laughed myself to tears,
(Ha hahahahaha)
Conjuring her deepest fears
(Come here you fucking bitch)

Must have stabbed her fifty fucking times,
I can’t believe it,
Ripped her heart out right before her eyes,
Eyes over easy, eat it, eat it, eat it

She was never this good in bed even when she was sleeping
Now she’s just so perfect I’ve never been quite so fucking deep in
It goes on and on and on,
I can keep you looking young and preserved forever,
With a fountain spray on your youth whenever

‘Cause I really always knew that my little crime
Would be cold that’s why I got a heater for your thighs
And I know, I know it’s not your time
But bye, bye
And a word to the wise when the fire dies
You think it’s over but it’s just begun
But baby don’t cry

You had my heart, at least for the most part
‘Cause everybody’s gotta die sometime,
We fell apart, let’s make a new start
‘Cause everybody’s gotta die sometime, yeah yeah
But baby don’t cry

Now possibilities I’d never considered,
Are occurring the likes of which I’d never heard,
Now an angry soul comes back from beyond the grave,
To repossess a body with which I’d misbehaved

Smiling right from ear to ear
Almost laughed herself to tears

Must have stabbed him fifty fucking times
I can’t believe it
Ripped his heart out right before his eyes
Eyes over easy, eat it, eat it, eat it

(Eat the shit out of it)
Now that it’s done I realize the error of my ways
I must venture back to apologize from somewhere far beyond the grave

I gotta make up for what I’ve done
‘Cause I was all up in a piece of heaven
While you burned in hell, no peace forever

‘Cause I really always knew that my little crime
Would be cold that’s why I got a heater for your thighs
And I know, I know it’s not your time
But bye, bye
And a word to the wise when the fire dies
You think it’s over but it’s just begun
But baby don’t cry

You had my heart, at least for the most part
‘Cause everybody’s gotta die sometime,
We fell apart, let’s make a new start
‘Cause everybody’s gotta die sometime, yeah yeah
But baby don’t cry

[Maniacal laughter]

I will suffer for so long
(What will you do, not long enough)
To make it up to you
(I pray to God that you do)
I’ll do whatever you want me to do
(Well then I’ll grant you one chance)
And if it’s not enough
(If it’s not enough, If it’s not enough)
If it’s not enough
(Not enough)
Try again
(Try again)
And again
(And again)
Over and over again

We’re coming back, coming back
We’ll live forever, live forever
Let’s have wedding, have a wedding
Let’s start the killing, start the killing

[Maniacal laughter]

“Do you take this man in death for the rest of your unnatural life?”
“Yes, I do”
“Do you take this woman in death for the rest of your unnatural life?”
“I do”
“I now pronounce you…”

‘Cause I really always knew that my little crime
Would be cold that’s why I got a heater for your thighs
And I know, I know it’s not your time
But bye, bye
And a word to the wise when the fire dies
You think it’s over but it’s just begun
But baby don’t cry

You had my heart, at least for the most part
‘Cause everybody’s gotta die sometime,
We fell apart, let’s make a new start
‘Cause everybody’s gotta die sometime, yeah yeah
But baby don’t cry

Critical Acclaim Lyrics

Shh… quiet, you might piss somebody off
Like me, motherfucker, you’ve been at it for too long
While you feed off others’ insecurities
You stand in front of me and bite the hand that feeds

Self-righteousness is wearing thin
(Lies inside your head, your best friend)
Heart bleeds but not for fellow men
(Broken glass, your fake reflection)

I’ve had enough
It’s time for something real
I don’t respect the words you’re speaking
Gone too far
A clone

So how does it feel to know that someone’s kid
In the heart of America has blood on their hands
Fighting to defend your rights
So you can maintain a lifestyle
That insults his family’s existence
Well, where I’m from we have a special
Salute that we aim high in the air
Towards all those pompous assholes
Who spend their days pointing fingers
(Fuck you)

Shh… quiet, you might piss somebody off
Like the heartbeat of this country when antagonized too long
I’ll be damned if you count me in as part of your generous hypocrisy
Collecting enemies

Tabloid gossip queen, worthless man
(There’s no need for us to bury you)
Selfish agenda once again
(Right this way, you’ve dug your own grave)

I’ve had enough
It’s time for something real
I don’t respect the words you’re speaking
Gone too far
A clone

All the way from the east to the west
We got this high society
Looking down on their very foundation
Constantly reminding us that our actions
Are the cause of all their problems
Pointing their fingers in every
Direction, blaming their
Own nation for who wins the elections
They’ve never contributed a fucking thing to the
Country they love to criticize

Excuse the obscene, ignore the untrue
Depictions we see try and get through
Admitting mistakes can hurt
I’m not the last but I sure ain’t the first

Shh… quiet you might piss somebody off

Self-righteousness is wearing thin
(Lies inside your head, your best friend)
Heart bleeds but not for fellow men
(Broken glass, your fake reflection)

I’ve had enough
It’s time for something real
I don’t respect the words you’re speaking
Gone too far
A clone

Beast And The Harlot Lyrics

This shining city built of gold, a far cry from innocence,
There’s more than meets the eye round here, look to the waters of the deep.
A city of evil.
There sat a seven-headed beast, ten horns raised from his head.
Symbolic woman sits on his throne, but hatred strips her and leaves her naked.
The Beast and the Harlot.

She’s a dwelling place for demons.
She’s a cage for every unclean spirit,
Every filthy bird and makes us drink
The poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings.
Fallen now is Babylon the Great.

The city dressed in jewels and gold, fine linen, myrrh and pearls.
Her place will come all at once as mourners watch her burn.
Destroyed in an hour.
Merchants and captains of the world, sailors, navigators too.
Will weep and mourn this loss with her sins piled to the sky,
The Beast and the Harlot.

She’s a dwelling place for demons.
She’s a cage for every unclean spirit,
Every filthy bird and makes us drink
The poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings.
Fallen now is Babylon the Great.

The day has come for all us sinners.
If you’re not a servant, you’ll be struck to the ground.
Flee the burning, greedy city.
Lookin’ back on her to see there’s nothing around.

I don’t believe in fairytales and no one wants to go to hell.
You’ve made the wrong decision and it’s easy to see.
Now if you wanna serve above or be a king below with us,
You’re welcome to the city where your future is set forever.

[x2:]
She’s a dwelling place for demons.
She’s a cage for every unclean spirit,
Every filthy bird and makes us drink
The poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings.
Fallen now is Babylon the Great.

Nightmare Lyrics

Nightmare!
(Now your nightmare comes to life)

Dragged ya down below
Down to the devil’s show
To be his guest forever
(Peace of mind is less than never)
Hate to twist your mind
But God ain’t on your side
And old acquaintance severed
(Burn the world your last endeavor)

Flesh is burning
You can smell it in the air
Cause men like you have
Such an easy soul to steal (steal)
So stand in line while
They ink numbers in your head
You’re now a slave
Until the end of time here
Nothing stops the madness,
Turning, haunting, yearning
Pull the trigger

You should have known
The price of evil
And it hurts to know
That you belong here, yeah
Ooh, it’s your fuckin’ nightmare

(While your nightmare comes to life)

Can’t wake up in sweat
‘Cause it ain’t over yet
Still dancing with your demons
(Victim of your own creation)
Beyond the will to fight
Where all that’s wrong is right
Where hate don’t need a reason
(Loathing self-assassination)

You’ve been lied to
Just to rape you of your sight
And now they have the nerve
To tell you how to feel (feel)
So sedated as they
Medicate your brain
And while you slowly
Go insane they tell ya
“Given with the best intentions
Help you with your complications”

You should have known
The price of evil
And it hurts to know
That you belong here, yeah
No one to call
Everybody to fear
Your tragic fate is looking so clear, yeah
Ooh, it’s your fuckin’ nightmare

[M. Shadows laughing]

Fight (fight)
Not to fail (fail)
Not to fall (fall)
Or you’ll end up like the others
Die (die)
Die again (die)
Drenched in sin (sin)
With no respect for another

Oh

Down (down)
Feel the fire (fire)
Feel the hate (hate)
Your pain is what we desire
Lost (lost)
Hit the wall (wall)
Watch you crawl (crawl)
Such a replaceable liar

And I know you hear their voices
Calling from above
And I know they may seem real
These signals of love
But our life’s made up of choices
Some without appeal
They took for granted your soul
And it’s ours now to steal

(As your nightmare comes to life)

You should have known
The price of evil
And it hurts to know
That you belong here, yeah
No one to call
Everybody to fear
Your tragic fate is looking so clear, yeah
Ooh, it’s your fuckin’ nightmare
