1.	Zero Hour 05:11	lyrics	buy track
Into this bloody world I fall Deeper and Deeper and deeper still. I reach up towards the shimmering stars, But the heavens cry black blue tears of pain Am I ever to be with you again As I witness the horrors of the world And feel the dirty dead dead dead eyes Which hold me and scratch me and take me away But ever still I hold my breath for that twain of hope and lurking death Never to breathe the word of flesh Only to wait, only to wonder Crystalline raindrops on the world which I hate Like the towering palaces grey which I hate Like its tell-tale citizens, all like each other All of them different, but somehow the same And I hate, hate, hate, hate For the sake of the feeling of being For this is the way that I am, not willing to change Not eager to die and yet not afraid I fall ever down upon the shit brown ground and I smile and I laugh and this echoes around me and I feel much at home in this suffering rot and I see you would join me, all alone you would join me together we’ll hate, the whole world together we’ll hate, hate, hate, hate we’ll hate all together and soon we will be the whole world take my hand lead me away can’t you see my fall from grace all I am has been betrayed here in my zero hour take my hand lead me away can’t you see my fall from grace all I am has been betrayed here in my zero hour all I am has been devoured welcome to my zero hour
2.	Grace 03:44	lyrics	buy track
The night turned red like the fire in your hair The bullets I had saved for you went flying through the air The poison touch I gave your lips was venom to your soul The guilt that I feel vacant is a pain I’ll never know No small pleasure do I have for giving you away The meaning in your gestures as you fell from grace Absent are my tears for you which had I surely shed Would drop upon this pool of blood beneath my feet and spread Though are future’s left us now no past comes crashing in No suicide regrets from me my razor dulls with sin No mystery shrouds your fate is clear your form has turned to dust And with these hands I rape your life, your secrets, and your trust Although your world is silent now your sleeping soul shall rise, Liberation from the old flesh, a new object of life Peaceful is my shadows leap into another land Insanity has captured me I’ve lost my steady hand Silent has my voice become so soon I cannot say I’ve lost my Grace, I’ve lost my Place and now I’ve lost my way

I gave you my word, this is my gun I’ll give you my sword, as these are my hands I’ll give you my heart, you’ve already won, Are we going to war, are we going to war So sudden was your hate for me so absolute and true You stood for things that you believed how I resented you You dot your I’s and cross your T’s no error in your ways And when your cursing fills my ears I think of better days I gave you my word, this is my gun I’ll give you my sword, as these are my hands I’ll give you my heart, you’ve already won, Are we going to war, are we going to war I signed the dotted line with one foot in the grave The company I kept betrayed me all the same It’s funny how things are, it’s funny, how they remain I gave you my word, this is my gun I’ll give you my sword, as these are my hands I’ll give you my heart, you’ve already won, Are we going to war, are we going to war You were a lover, were a friend, until I crossed your path The time we showed was at its end, divided we collapsed You stood back up endured the pain and cleansed yourself of guilt You rediscovered reasoning and now we fight for what we built I gave you my word, this is my gun I’ll give you my sword, as these are my hands I’ll give you my heart, you’ve already won, Are we going to war, are we going to war I gave you my word, I gave you my word I gave you my word, I gave you my word I gave you my word, now look what you’ve done I gave you my word, now look what you’ve done I gave you my word, now look what you’ve done I gave you my word, now look what you’ve done I gave you my word, now look what you’ve done I gave you my word, now look what you’ve done I gave you my word, now look what you’ve done I gave you my word, now look what you’ve done I gave you my word, this is my gun I’ll give you my sword, as these are my hands I’ll give you my heart, you’ve already won, Are we going to war, are we going to war I gave you my word, this is my gun I’ll give you my sword, as these are my hands I’ll give you my heart, you’ve already won, Are we going to war, are we going to war
4.	This Damn Device 03:58	lyrics	buy track
This damn machine, this damn device Controls the movement of our lives, Manipulates our consciousness Destroys the feelings we have left Rearranges facts and figures Into the world we’ve come to know Persuades our mass conforming And makes us human less and less Don’t you want to be saved, don’t you want to be free Cut the cord that binds you to this damn machine This damn machine, this damn device Controls the way we operate Replaces everything Breaks us down to one belief Marks all of us as we are code Now just another with no hope Permeates all connected thoughts Like drones we cluster Don’t you want to be saved, don’t you want to be free Cut the cord that binds you to this damn machine This damn device that has got us in chains Forever to rust, forever to stain Our consciousness in peril and pain This damn device, this damn device Don’t you want to be saved, don’t you want to be free Cut the cord that binds you to this damn machine

6.	Fallen Angel 04:49	lyrics	buy track
I’ve got a secret, I’ve been withholding Here under my skin You too have locked yourself away to hide your feelings and your sins I’ve have a hunger deep inside me Its building day by day This craving from within defies me and soon I’ll have my way Fallen Angel in the night, you’re the Devil in disguise Was it painful when you fell Fallen angel You tiptoe in the twilight, while I’m dancing in the dark You slip away in the silence something tells me just where you are Fallen Angel in the night, You’re the Devil in disguise Was it painful when you fell Fallen Angel Let me call you spider, and you can call me fly Wrap your legs around me, suck me ‘til I’m dry I’m six sick sick of tenderness, I want to be set free I want to be mistreated, I want you here with me You tiptoe in the twilight, while I’m dancing in the dark You slip away in the silence something tells me just where you are Fallen Angel in the night, you’re the Devil in disguise Was it painful when you fell Fallen Angel

This love is blind, there’s smoke in my eyes It was buried in your eyes It was hidden in your soul One thousand separate subtle ways That we had let each other know Addiction I am bound to you A secret which we share The pressure of the outside world We’ll find no sanctuary there It was buried in your eyes It was hidden in your soul One thousand separate subtle ways That we had let each other know Addiction I am bound to you A secret which we share The pressure from the outside world We’ll find no sanctuary there This love is blind there’s smoke in my eyes This love is blind there’s smoke in my eyes THIS LOVE IS BLIND THERE’S SMOKE IN MY EYES There was a tremble on your lips As you framed the words Goodbye A hundred times I’ve played it back A hundred more I’ve questioned why Addiction I am bound to you A secret which we share The pressure from the outside world We’ll find no sanctuary there This love is blind there’s smoke in my eyes This love is blind there’s smoke in my eyes I can see clearly now, I can see clearly now, I can see clearly now, I can see clearly now, I can see clearly now, I can see clearly now, This love is blind there’s smoke in my eyes This love is blind there’s smoke in my eyes THIS LOVE IS BLIND THERE”S SMOKE IN MY EYES Was I blind to what we had Were the indicators there Could I not see our own collapse Was I completely unaware Addiction I am bound to you. A secret which we share The pressure from the outside world We’ll find no sanctuary there This love is blind, there’s smoke in my eyes This love is blind, there’s smoke in my eyes THIS LOVE IS BLIND, THERE’S SMOKE IN MY EYES THIS LOVE IS BLIND, THERE’S SMOKE IN MY EYES

I knew an old soldier with Christ on his shoulders with tattoos of monkeys and circus performers He spoke with a whisper but his words held a power he beckoned to me in his final hours I hear the crooked rhythm and reason All the waste in that disease So many paths for you to follow You are standing in between This cross I bare, this poltergeist, it haunts me as I roam It asks of me a sacrifice, it wants me to let go This graveyard earth you’ve shat upon This fragile world where we belong My hands are stained with guilt, my hands are stained with guilt My eyes are fueled with blood, my eyes are fueled with blood We gave you everything, we gave you everything we thought you understood, we thought you understood Paint a smile on the sun, paint a smile on the sun Shed a tear and say goodbye This graveyard earth you’ve shat upon This fragile world where we belong I hear the crooked rhythm and reason All the waste in that disease So many paths for you to follow You are standing in between This cross I bare, this poltergeist, it haunts me as I roam It asks of me a sacrifice, it wants me to let go This graveyard earth you’ve shat upon This fragile world where we belong My hands are stained with guilt, my hands are stained with guilt My eyes are fueled with blood, my eyes are fueled with blood We gave you everything, we gave you everything we thought you understood, we thought you understood Paint a smile on the sun, paint a smile on the sun Shed a tear and say goodbye This graveyard earth you’ve shat upon This fragile world where we belong

Hello oblivion, you are my only friend I feel your emptiness, falling over me again I’d like to have your hand, I’d like to hold you tight I’d like to spend some time dancing darkly through the night We’re dancing with the dead, we’re dancing with the dead When darkness falls they said, we are here dancing with the dead Hello my pretty friend, nice to see you here again Dressed in black with roses on, dancing darkly to the songs Stomping to the sudden beat, shifting as the music bleeds Throw your arms into the air no one here will ever care Hello oblivion, you are my only friend I feel your emptiness, falling over me again I’d like to have your hand, I’d like to hold you tight I’d like to spend some time dancing darkly through the night We’re dancing with the dead, we’re dancing with the dead When darkness falls they said, we are here dancing with the dead Goodbye my concubine, close your eyes and feel the tide Never letting up to breathe as music washes over me Its here I feel alive, on the floor you will be mine Swing your hips and move your feet, with the dead we’ll dance this eve Hello oblivion, you are my only friend I feel your emptiness, falling over me again I’d like to have your hand, I’d like to hold you tight I’d like to spend some time dancing darkly through the night We’re dancing with the dead, we’re dancing with the dead When darkness falls they said, we are here dancing with the dead
12.	The End 05:05	lyrics	buy track
Is anybody out there Are we really all alone Can anybody hear this Is everybody gone Come with me my ostentation, come with me my bitter friend Can it be that this creation is about to see its end Here are the footsteps I have taken, on a path of my own choosing These decisions I am making, confirmation of our losing Come with me the sky is falling and there’s nowhere left to hide Who can hear the angels calling, as the earth it opens wide From the ashes of creation, to the heavens’ up above I search in vain for our salvation but all I ever find is blood Sticks and stones may break my bones, but you will never find me Here in the end I’ve lost my friends and the troubles left behind me A rising sun points like a gun and I’m looking up that barrel When all is gone I look upon my empty hands and cry in mourning This is the end I separate the indignation from what matters and does not The fetid wisdom of our leaders and the knowledge of the lost Some would travel to the mountains, some will dig deep underground When the tidal waves approaches only silence will be found We’ve been bled for our survival with an emptiness inside A hunger greater than our fathers, who will be there when we die Is this the end I feel within me through my body and my soul Is this the wrath of the almighty is this the end of all we know Sticks and stones may break my bones, but you will never find me Here in the end I’ve lost my friends and the troubles left behind me A rising sun points like a gun and I’m looking up that barrel When all is gone I look upon my empty hands and cry in mourning This is the end This is the end
