Equinox 08:07
Now’s the time Head in hands as the sun blinds Now’s the time Your tremble rumbles the frontline I’ll be here, I’ll be here Forever waiting I’ll be here, I’ll be here Forever waiting, forever patient They’ve drawn a line The grains of sand determine Your fate and mine Bite down hard and dig your heels in because I’ll be here, I’ll be here Forever waiting, forever patient The firing line Tears down the constitution Of your life Let what remains end your confusion I’ll be here, I’ll be here Forever waiting I’ll be here, I’ll be here Forever waiting, forever patient Now’s the time You’re the day and I’m the night Now’s the time We’re equal at last and I’ll take what’s mine I am here, I am here I have arrived I am here, I am here I have arrived Open your eyes

Chaser 03:55
I know they're coming I'll take her in my hand And she'll fuck with my head Just like she always planned They work together Changing who I am She takes the sting out From those that beat me down As her lips touch mine Her heat numbs my need My need to be somebody The bitch knows I'm weak Chaser, chaser, chaser, chaser, chaser, chaser, chaser, chaser, chaser The chaser hates me Loves my poisoned blood But I just can't resist her I knew I never could She's killing me Taking me piece by piece Until I'm a hollow shell Of all I once believed And now she's had her way She'll kick me to the curb once again But tomorrow this will all be a blur And I'll blame everyone except her Chaser, chaser, chaser, chaser, chaser, chaser, chaser, chaser, chaser

Killing Time 03:46
I've seen you on our ravaged roads, smiling, guiltless about our fate Your mouth spits lies but your eyes reveal all I've seen how the crowds part as you walk through But I know what you've done I know what you've done I've heard the whispers and seen the twitches on the faces of your friends You're as oblivious to them as you are me You need to see You need to see You need to see Someone should make you see A thousand hopes in your hands, a thousand reasons to change Why won't you change? Why won't you change? I could make a stand, I could be the one I could save us all by ending your days I'll plot and scheme until I see a way Until the clock strikes, I'm just killing time My body quakes as I step into the night The poison in my veins adds fuel to my fire You're my prey and I'll hunt you down You stole our lives; It's time to take yours The blade's up my sleeve and eager to breathe I hide in the shadows as I watch you pass My pace quickens, my pulse pumps harder It's killing time

Sanguine 05:26
Lost souls, bleak landscapes Blue skin, empty hands What a waste, don't go to waste Blistered heels, bruised desire Bitten tongue, words decay What a waste, don't go to waste Hidden in shadows, don't hide, don't hide Fearing denial, don't fear An eternity waiting, don't wait, don't wait Through the faces, she's here Hidden in shadows, don't hide, don't hide Fearing denial, don't fear An eternity waiting, don't wait, don't wait Through the faces, she's here Crumpled and creased, find your feet She moves at arm's reach Cheeks of blood burning Sanguine Kindred spirit, you can turn your fate She's there for the taking, don't leave it too late Let the cold rush, flavour your skin The taste of which is drenched in sin As your fingers lock, don't let her go As frightening as our hearts find the unknown Find the fight deep down within Let her golden touch cave you in Kindred spirit, you can turn your fate She's there for the taking, don't leave it too late Let the cold rush, flavour your skin The taste of which is drenched in sin As your fingers lock, don't let her go As frightening as our hearts find the unknown Find the fight deep down within Let her golden touch cave you in Let her in

The beauty of it. To be absorbed so much by another that you see through their eyes. They consume you almost entirely and the love their heart beats sends ripples through them like a stone cast across a wave. You’ll never know that now. In fact, you’ve never known that. The sadness in your eyes tells me your life story and it’s a life lived alone. I’ve waited for this moment for a long time. Everything ends and when it does, it takes all you are and ever were with it. It’s like glass. Everything is clear until one thing hits you. That one thing you didn’t see coming that shatters you and all those remaining fragments are your memories, which gradually crumble away. I’m your one thing and you’re just like everyone else.

I've walked this road before but the first time I didn't know it Life flying by in the blink of an eye The dirt's hard to scrub off when you've surrounded yourself with filth Drinking, smoking, fucking away our lives Any day, any day, any day, any day could be your last Find the guts, find the guts, find the guts, find the guts to make your life count The dust on my rags has been weighing me down But not as much as the attitude I adopted to get by I was distracted, paid no attention to the clock ticking It took someone to show me I was wasting my life Any day, any day, any day, any day could be your last Find the guts, find the guts, find the guts, find the guts to make your life count Any day, any day, any day, any day could be your last Find the guts, find the guts, find the guts, find the guts to make your life count As all the things turned red The green of enemies eyes was all that was left Sent shivers down my spine Those words I held as mine Gripping them so tight My knuckles became white and I, and I, and I, and I I found a reason to live To be alive's a gift Treasure who you're with And all friends will forgive All your mistakes Take a chance to break Away from what you know You can do it alone Change the life you chose Then you'll fucking show The lowest of the low You'll take everything you're owed Greed is good for the bad But when they've taken all you have It's yours to take back It's yours to take back So Live for today It's the only way A life with regrets Is a life you've betrayed All that I ask Is that you take a chance And remember these words That are written in the stars Live for today It's the only way A life with regrets Is a life you've betrayed All that I ask Is that you take a chance And remember these words That are written in the stars Any day could be your last Any day could be your last
