Now put your money Where your mouth is You have the method But will you move mountains? This has become quite a vehicle With no room for aggrandized egos You have adapted to the role Your portrayal betrays your soul Wherever you may go May your heart remain your home I can see the sequence Trans-human influence I maintain observance Focused on radiance You remain in silence Language omniscient I renounce the violence Devoid of intelligence They backed you into the corner Provoked your will From the brink You return to them stronger Hear it when you’re willing The sound of one hand killing The sound of one hand killing Killing... You are being hunted Subject to summoning a landslide You have adultered the altar Of a faceless Serpentine-coil of a riddle As you can imagine They are pulling every last stop You will not falter You offer to the people consistently Caught in the middle I’ll send for you When the coast is clear (How long will I be waiting, waiting) (How long will I be waiting, waiting) Climbing up to the top Gonna meet you there (How long will I be waiting, waiting) (How long will I be waiting, waiting) For you! Up on your feet (Oh) Darling dear (Oh) May the gods guide you right back here (Oh) Without you here (Oh) It’s not home (Oh) May you find what you’re looking for (Oh) An inner peace (Oh) The infinite (Oh) May it burn through your deepest fear (Oh) Without punch (Oh) There’s no show (Oh) May you hold them accountable They backed you into the corner Provoked your will From the brink You return to them stronger Hear it when you’re willing The sound of one hand killing They backed you into the corner Provoked your will From the brink You return to them stronger Hear it when you’re willing The sound of one hand killing (Ooh) (How long will I be waiting, waiting) (How long will I be waiting, waiting) (Ooh) (How long will I be waiting, waiting) (How long will I be waiting, waiting)

Are you sick of being tired? Are you tired of being sick? How did I get to where it pours Never rains Highway-lost Out of range My time A memory As you grip for the future It slips out of your hands The bitter-sweet truth You know too well You’ve got to take it You’ve got to face it where you stand Get out of your own damn way You must be out of your mind Don’t ask if refusal offends Are you sick of being tired? Are you tired of being sick? I can get a handle on it Time is a memory (fading) Time is ticking (fleeting) Time is a memory (after) Time is illusion Don't ask if refusal offends Get out of your own damn way You must be out of your mind As you grip for the future It slips out of your hands The bitter-sweet truth You know too well You’ve got to take it where you stand Grip on the future It slips out of your hands The bitter-sweet truth You know too well You’ve got to take it You'd better face it where you stand!

Wade into the water Step into the beauty of the sun Remember why you came here To realize the truth Forever home And they will haunt you 'Til the morning breaks You breached their trust And sealed your fate Ride the wave You best make your move And get while the getting is good When all have abandoned hope I'll still search for you Lost in the groove Your heart remains unmoved When I could abandon hope I'll still search for you I'll still look for you Listen to the water Merge into communion with the source And they will haunt you 'Til the morning breaks You breached their trust And sealed your fate Ride the wave You've made your move Got while the getting was good When all have abandoned hope I'll still search for you Lost in the groove Your heart remains unmoved When I could abandon hope I'll still search for you I'll still look for you I'll still look for you Feel you drop I pick you up I could almost swear I felt us float To the top From rock bottom And there we melt like summer You've made your move Got while the getting was good When all have abandoned hope I'll still search for you Lost in the groove Your heart remains unmoved When I could abandon hope I'll still search for you I'll still look for you! You are my oxygen You are my oxygen You are my oxygen You are my oxygen

The deal is fixed The cards are cut All of the heathens They are drinking from the cup This crooked game Is not of luck Digging down To reach the top Followers all scream for more until they're drunk And all god's children could give a fuck The way of the beast is tragedy by design Collateral waste Will you drown in the noise you have made? Surrounded by darkness You won't hide from the lights There is no escape From the ones who would profit from shame Will you drown in the noise you have made? The wings are clipped The bird half-cut Gone is the one who made her home among the stars A fall from grace Becomes her art Digging down No looking up When the riches and rewards are not enough And all god's children could give a fuck The way of the beast is tragedy by design Collateral waste Will you drown in the noise you have made? Surrounded by darkness You won't hide from the lights There is no escape From the ones who would profit from shame Will you drown in the noise you have made? They'll chew you up and spit you out The promise of demise is a religion The audience makes no sound They can't take their eyes off a collision The way of the beast is tragedy by design Collateral waste Will you drown in the noise you have made? Surrounded by darkness You won't hide from the lights There is no escape From the ones who would profit from shame Will you drown in the noise you have made? Erased! When enough is enough Not enough is too much When enough is enough Not enough is too much When enough is enough Not enough is too much When enough is enough Not enough is too much The will of the beast is tragedy by design Such a waste

Nobody's here for too long It's just a breath It's just a song And in the end No right from wrong You'll find it didn't matter Nobody's here for too long It's just a breath It's just a song And in the end No right from wrong You'll find it didn't matter You'll learn every time you fall Better to give everything or nothing at all What the hell you waiting for Better to give everything or nothing at all (nothing at all) If you live in the flow Life happens for us when we let it go If you fear the end will come Life happens to us when we're holding on Life is for the living You must carry on Nobody's here for too long It's just a breath It's just a song And in the end No right from wrong You'll find it didn't matter Nobody's here for too long It's just a breath It's just a song And in the end No right from wrong You'll find it didn't matter You'll learn every time you fall Better to give everything or nothing at all What the hell you waiting for Better to give everything or nothing at all (nothing at all) Disfrutar tu vida O tener tu muerte Disfrutar tu vida O tener tu muerte We all arrive here alone We all depart here alone But we don't wanna go We all arrive here alone We will depart here alone We ought to let it go You'll learn every time you fall Better to give everything or nothing at all What the hell you waiting for Better to give everything or nothing at all (nothing at all) Energy never dies It moves on to its next state If energy never dies We exist into post mortem

Brrruh! What are you watching, are you watching over me? What are you watching, are you watching over me? What are you watching, are you watching over me? Will you ever see what they can see? When every step is all that we It's revealed, you're exposed The inconspicuous now made known No more silence, nowhere to run Now you must confront your demons alone It unfolds in defence In damage control In denial of transgression You become target of vindication We got the picture Caught your act by the throat We couldn't leave enough alone You couldn't keep it undisclosed All things considered You were set for the fall You couldn't yield until it all burned to the ground All your deals done behind doors Secrets whispered, incognito Like great oaks rising from acorns Truth in the light Becomes the perfect storm Settled score Justice swift And the rift is closed You're delivered a final blow Now you are down on your knees You're dethroned We got the picture Caught your act by the throat We couldn't leave enough alone You couldn't keep it undisclosed All things considered You were set for the fall You couldn't yield until it all burned to the ground What are you watching, are you watching over me? What are you watching, are you watching over me? What are you watching, are you watching over me? Will you ever see what they can see? When every step is all that we My destiny is Not the seamless Integration into The void We got the picture Caught your act by the throat Couldn't leave enough alone Couldn't keep it undisclosed All things considered You were set for the fall Couldn't leave until it all burned to the ground

Adiós This is goodbye This is the last time You're out of control You've been warming your hands On the bridges you're burning All out on your own The contempt for the people who feed you It's unreasonable But it's never been my style To beat on a petulant child This is my last song for you This is my last song to you Part-time egotist Full-time narcissist Centre of the universe This is my last song to you Adiós This is goodbye This is the last time Two steps forward One backward One step forward Two backward So long, we are done You shoot your mouth just like a gun So long, we are done No going back The damage done But it's never been my style To beat on a petulant child This is my last song for you This is my last song to you Part-time egotist Full-time narcissist Centre of the universe This is my last song to you Adiós This is goodbye!

I lie in wait for you My enemy eclipsed The first and final warning A fatal catalyst Fire wrapped in clouds You've come to send me home A falsified ascension Thy kingdom come The fight, it blazes on Your cause is not my own I am not the only one I am not the only one Well, you've crossed the Rubicon And now you're a dog of war And no man's friend You've crossed the Rubicon now Wait (I recall when we were like each other) What have you (I remember it all) done? (You were closer to me than a brother) What have you become? You shed their blood In sanctimonious obligation Without empathy or thought And you held your soul to ransom People made senseless Under hail of friendly-fire Now they wander the wilderness Extinguished by their own decline The fight, it blazes on Your cause is not my own I am not the only one I am not the only one Well, you've crossed the Rubicon And now you're a dog of war And no man's friend You've crossed the Rubicon now Wait (I recall when we were like each other) What have you (I remember it all) done? (You were closer to me than a brother) What have you become? Death The glorious war machine Centralized in extreme Forged and sent to murder Order death to descend from circuits The annihilation Born from the heart of a false salvation In unified exaltation Fuel for their liberation Dig for bones, lick your wounds Your reward, the leash, remains Heel, and come when you're called From their command into your grave The hypocrisy of your liberty Your security for us all Insanity pleads its own defence To deter the advance of the law You and I, we're no different We originate from the sword I didn't want to single you out But I'm relentless You'll never feel You'll never be innocent again Relentless Dig for bones, lick your wounds Your reward, the leash, remains Dig for bones, lick your wounds Your reward, the leash, remains
