1.
The albatross is hanging around your fucking neck/always playing the martyr keep your ideals in check Extreme Feeds extreme Shovel coal to all empires feed those fucking flames/always looking for an enemy but you forget their names Extreme feeds extreme Blood for blood, eye for eye. Spider catches prey/every church on god's green earth has hell to pay Extreme feeds extreme Fundamental dreams Extreme feeds extreme Worship until they scream
2.
The wolves are circling The knell is tolling The father is your father now Innocence their currency Feeding of the blood you bleed They hold the knife while you take the vow. Absolve all sins but their own. They save those sins for while alone. Hang yourself for the holy ghost. On hands and knees you beg for the rope Innocence their currency Feeding off the blood you bleed. (Repeat fist part) On broken knees. You award incest with fealty. Innocence their currency Feeding off the black blood you bleed.
3.
The ugly side of the USA/Critical thinking falls away You only care what fox news has to say/Redneck fuck mentality Wave your flag of bigotry You white trash crybaby Eight middle fingers from us to you You hate everyone/we hate you Just a case of white privilege All your doing is helping the rich When we fight each other they fucking win All those pundits have got you picked You must be bummed about the size of your dick Fuck you and fuck white heritage You’ve held everyone down for so long/it’s bigger than you you don’t belong Just another redneck with a stale song Eight middle fingers from us to you
4.
A tribute to no one forgotten in disgrace/destroy hypocrisy, lose your faith Self learning hatred/in favor of your race/destroy bigotry, lose your faith We are the new breed/Fed on destruction We are the heathens now We are the wolves/torn from sheep’s clothing We are the truth you disavow Hold your head beneath the water/Let yourself drown you’ll fucking drown Lose your faith, be your own martyr Be the spear, the ribs the crown Lose your faith
5.
Where is your sense of pride/without us this circle dies-We’ll hold the line, hold the line You only care about yourself undermine the communities built-We’ll hold the line, hold the line Hold the line We keep screaming at the walls but nothing ever seems to change-We’ll hold the line Time keeps passing us by and the anger turns to shame-Falling behind The agendas are drowning out the reasons we’re here-We’ll hold the line When everything is a joke the true fight disappears-Falling behind Hang it up give it up you lost the fight for us To you none of this matters we’ve had enough Hang it up give it up hang it up give it up Just because it doesn’t matter to you doesn’t mean it doesn’t matter to us. We’ll hold the line
6.
Crawling on my hands and knees Looking for scraps of normalcy Can’t fucking breath/Hammers on the anvil we all bleed Shoulders broken, four walls alive/We pay a price to survive What Price? Hammers on the anvil/Waiting for the strike Hammers on the anvil/Become the knife
7.
Dead Heroes 02:49
Looking up in the underground/looking up while you should look down Your heroes are dead. Your heroes are gone That pedestal is mighty tall/the bigger they are the harder they fall Your heroes are dead. Your heroes are gone. Sound the death toll/Light the Pyres/Tear down the pedestals/Throw them in the fires/Your heroes are all bones and dust so raise the spades/Your heroes are all dust Looking up in the underground/Looking up when you should look down Your heroes are dead/Your heroes are gone Looking for answers in the belly of the beast/Reaching for what they can’t keep Your heroes are dead/your heroes are gone Even the living can be dead heroes
8.
Toe the Line 02:57
Smiles like blades/money in their pockets/You think they hold the answers/All they hold are profits. It’s the lesser of two evils-Toe the line Parallel lines becoming equal Can’t they see are they blind? Are they blind?
9.
Treasons 02:36
Your life a fault line/you betray yourself Always falling back in line/begging for wealth Your knees are dirty but your back is strong Always looking above/where the leeches belong Living in treason/there's no escape What happened to reason/it’s only church and state It’s on our backs where their lives are built It’s on their hands where their lives are built You betray yourself
10.
So light the fires/Watch every palace burn You exalt the liars/Crawling behind in dirt So light the fires/empires crumbling Open wounds for hire/in the end it means nothing We hold the match that you always try to drown’ You hold the papers but you can’t always hold us down Which side is inside out you can only drain us for so long/always trying to find a way out but your influence is strong/Always bleeding the people, each side of the aisle like an empty drain/one side holds the steeple while the other side holds a name/Dragging us around like a beaten dog eventually the leash will break/Only takes a little bit more to see how much we can take
11.
Strike the lights, light the fuse, step away/I’ve given up can’t hear a single thing you say So fucking tired of being angry-no way out Forget my name, just forget my name-No way I’ve fallen down, I’ve given up, I’m seeing red/Will someone please pull this hatred from my head So fucking tired of being angry-No way out Forget my name, just forget my name-No way Can't hear a single word you’re saying-No way out Forget my name just forget my name
12.
I’ve got nothing but anger and an empty glass/Digging in sand for something I can never have/It’s all your fault, these scars this darkness/Fuck you and everything you stand for Black Hearts Broken Bones You just walked away A broken childhood/My anger creeping in/A bed of ice that I didn’t know I was sleeping in/It’s all your fault, these scars, this darkness/Fuck you and everything you stand for. Black Hearts Broken Bones It’s all your fault I’m tired of bleeding
