Mourn the Southern Skies
The seven year itch has come, for the middle class father to some Castle build from sand and stone is now crumbling into the dust Evening time has come Tuck the children in and steal the sun Execute the plan, make no mistakes Should we just refrain or start again? Love is relative But are relatives so loved that a father or mother won't take a sister or brother? Cut bait and move on? Carry on... Let no man put asunder I'm gonna love you 'til you're six feet under For seven years, bitch and moan and coming through the door, following on Take the time to bond and play, before a tired mind gets to unwind Evening time has come Tuck the children in and steal the sun Execute the plan, make no mistakes Should we just refrain or start again? Love is relative But are relatives so loved that a father or mother won't take a sister or brother? Cut bait and move on? Carry on... Let no man put asunder I'm gonna love you 'til you're six feet under

The evil of all evils lurks in the dark, hiding in the shadow of smiles Ponder the perfect moment to strike and laying the bait Setting the trap for the moment to come, waiting for the eyes to be blind Falsification of integrity and taking the prey... Beware the Wolf, don't swim with sharks Never go walking through woods in the dark Sociopathic illusion is coming your way Separate mother and child in the hunt, forcing the weakest to tire Circling numbers as appetites growl, indifferent to loss Greed and predation are fueled by the need, avarice born out of pride The victim must die for the pack to survive at every cost Beware the Wolf, don't swim with sharks Never go walking through woods in the dark Sociopathic illusion is coming your way Wolves will stalk in the dark The evilest of evil lives in the heart of many women and men Dormant, emotionless, absence of grace and masked with a smile Awakened by convenient fortuity, striking when defense is down Narcissist draining the life from strong and training the child Beware the Wolf, don't swim with sharks Never go walking through woods in the dark Sociopathic illusion is coming your way Wolves will stalk in the dark

Just like a stab through the heart, the world keeps killing you Question just who you are forevermore Make it a double on the rocks, but it'll only dull the pain Maybe it buys you just another day Shanked in the back, bleed from the Soul Realize you're dying once again Yesterday's bones will rise, a fool that should have died Tomorrow keeps the peace that hides today Feel like you've been torn apart, when you're living in a goddamn zoo Dissected and displayed, for all to gaze Ready to burn it and stop Start it all over again Happy the man that learns to pray Hunting in packs, striking the lone Following the orders of the man Yesterday's bones will rise, a fool that should have died Tomorrow keeps the peace that hides today Rise Die Shanked in the back, bleed from the Soul Realize you're dying once again Yesterday's bones will rise, a fool that should have died Tomorrow keeps the peace that hides today

Strapped to a rotting bed if I were up I'd rule the world Why can't I be a stand-up guy I'm stuck at prone Without me that worthless son of a bitch would not have a dime How did this happen to me - where did it all go wrong We make the grave mistakes Then try to fool our own minds Distress and consequence The rumination kills time How am I supposed to face the day to face the world If only I were given a fair break you'd see I swear You can end up burning bridges just for standing tall The losing circle is so cold lonely and dark We make the grave mistakes Then try to fool our own minds Distress and consequence The rumination kills time I see you everywhere It's so hard to look Now I hear you everywhere Friendships we had mistook So face - your reflection And take - your medication Now make - a new direction Or stay - in rumination And I'm still strapped to a rotting bed if I were up I'd rule the world Why can't I be a stand-up guy I'm stuck at prone Without me that worthless son of a bitch would not have a dime How did this happen to me - where did it all go wrong

Seems the front of curses arrived Born into houses with guns See the bodies and bullets that riddle the floor before the life expires Passed from a father to son Seal the future and steal their eyes it's time to take a stand Never remove the arms of men the fuse just needs a spark Screaming children on the fly Blend in with daughters and guns Fear now turning the cattle into a herd of stampeding cries Hell is a place with noone Demon contracts and notarized it's time to take a stand Never remove the arms of men the fuse just needs a spark Rage faced crazed Now they know your name Place in fame Settled scores of pain it's time to take a stand Never remove the arms of men the fuse just needs a spark Space out safe Cameras set the stage Script the play as the last story blows away See you all another day it's time to take a stand Never remove the arms of men the fuse just needs a spark It's time to take a stand...

Get ready for thrash attack, there is no turning back bring the poser to the stage He'll be tortured and thrashed, and hung on a rack Sense the violence in the air, each other's blood is what you'll share Dripping sweat, thrash 'til death Sacrifice to the sound of your flesh we will tear Cutting through and through Sharp, like a knife that will take your life Watch it end in a bloody mess Hands of thrash are ripping flesh from the bone Non believers stop and stare, come and join us if you dare Feel the power, get it right Leave the power behind for what's real, for what's right Cutting through and through Sharp, like a knife that will take your life Watch it end in a bloody mess Hands of thrash are ripping flesh from the bone Dive off the stage, add to the plague, no one can stop you now Rip through the crowd, the metal's so loud You burst at the seams, we thrive on the screams Cutting through and through Sharp, like a knife that will take your life Watch it end in a bloody mess Hands of thrash are ripping flesh from the bone

I date the final entry, they've been so far between So many role reversals, so many lies unseen Where's the land of honey? It all seems so unreal... I cried a dying river all the way to the lake Undertow of our disasters, soil bed rich in past mistakes Caught by the beauty of her, strapped in by nature's call In life we give her everything, in death she takes it all Sever the safety cords The rescue teams won't come today No way Flood surge is rising high Who survies is her proclivity Mourn not what we haven't known, only the things that we've had and lost These arms won't stop from shaking, take me home Under the southern skies, I'm begging Like a child awaiting a thrashing The night has fallen, and I just missed the sun Sorrow just hides behind a smile and goes the extra mile Better to risk it all than spend another minute dead Maybe I can be the light, instead of farming all the dark Truth is, the law's just a word and law's just truth to the lie These arms won't stop from shaking, take me home Under the southern skies, I'm begging Like a child awaiting a thrashing The night has fallen, and I just missed the sun Sorrow just hides behind a smile and goes the extra mile Sunrise so beautiful Come to shame my ugly scars... Mourn the southern skies Who is the judge, the criminal? Would be try himself just and fair? I can't imagine so, still I believe in the dreams, not the lies Why can't the dreams just come to me? it's the nightmares that won't go away My soul deserves to know Still I believe in the dreams, not the lies
