Mr. Sadist 03:45
I've been hearing something whispering in my head, That "You're all worthless, and all should be dead." I wanna be pure, I wanna be clean But he tells me to stop living in between You'll try to make me the reason to blame For all the things, that make you insane For the rest of days, you'll never be the same You left the room as soon as in I came! I am above and you are below me You'll never find a safe way to control me I live inside your head, and you hate it And if you want my name Just call me Mr. Sadist Don't deceive yourself, there's not a pill you can take To quietly silence me, cause it is far too late Many people say that you're just losing your soul Just wait to see what they say when I am fully in control I'm coming for you now, for now it's time to see The darkest part of you is the brightest part of me I want to apologize for what he has done I fought real hard, but you know that he won I can't simply run away, now I'm coming undone He whispers in my ear "This has only just begun" Chorus: So you'll do what they voices tell you to do You don't wanna fight it any longer Duality is stretching against all remains Becoming one will make you stronger It's not giving up, just giving in to the fact That you'll never again be sane So just give your life into my embrace And I'll take all of your pain away You are above and I am below Everything you said really must have been true No reality, sanity is overrated Signed by his marked, is written Mr. Sadist I tried to run, but I know I can't hide From the simple truth about what's inside I didn't fit the frame, so I guess I'll just break it Tonight you and I will become Mr. Sadist You are above, You are below You are above You are below I'm covered in blood I know what to say Just fill me with drugs And lock me away

Immortal 05:27
It's 6PM, as you're turning on the news This just in, another psycho killer on the loose The TV man is trying to find something to blame The crowd goes wild, and all remains the same Chorus: What's left inside, after you take away the pain? Cause now I know, truly, this will never change So take my rifle, on my arrival Cause I'd rather die, than spare your lives... No... No... No... I can't believe it's come to this I guess you could say I have nothing left to lose I've lost all I loved, in painful years of abuse All my life, I just wanted to do something right So now it's settled; I'll make my mark tonight Chorus: What's left inside, after you take away the pain? Cause now I know, truly, this will never change So take my rifle, on my arrival Cause I'd rather die, than spare your lives... There's not a way to save your soul When your hearts turned frozen cold There's not a thing left for me here So now I'll take my final chance I'll make a difference This I swear (And suddenly, the remaining grips of morality disintegrated right before my very eyes, as I realize, there's not a single ounce of your sympathy to be repaid I will be born again, in the darkness of this night Because even if I die, my name will live forever...) So save your prayers Cause you'll need them for where you're headed Your friends will see You and I in headlines tonight It will be telling them What I looked like when you first saw me About the tragedy, death of 33, And a world who never wanted to care You are the ones you created me Born and raised in your apathy Isn't it sad, I had to spill blood Just for you to give a fuck? Don't beg, you won't get a second chance To ease your troubled minds, wash your ridden conscience You won't forget me, so don't even try You'll remember me by the cold look in my (eyes) I surrender, But remember, I'm not sorry, I'm immortal now

These walls have never felt so thin And I can't explain the state I'm in Does the higher road seem to be fading? Cause I've found myself in dire straits My sympathy matured to hate This man inside, has tasted your poison wine Now I can only say, I saw this coming, But was our "love so strong", only built on bricks of sand and dirt? If I had the chance to make a wicked choice, I'd pray the headlines would be stained, but the kids would still rejoice. Don't tell me you don't have the time, Cause I'm watching the clock tick by This whole charade that you had made left no one fooled at all It's hopeless, you're worthless I don't need your love, I'm moving on So if your god sends me to hell, I know I'll see you there as well Is there words to say what I've become? These thoughts seem to hide away from the sun But in this moonlight, it's all in limbo The feeding dirt is starting to taste poor and I've long forgot what my dreams stood for So I'll try to compose myself, and pour another glass But I sleep well at night, cause in my dreams I got my hands tightly round your neck, when you are screaming at me So in the end, tell me what's it gonna be? I'll laugh the day you find a mirror and see You're just like me! Don't tell me you don't have the time, Cause I'm watching the clock tick by This whole charade that you had made left no one fooled at all It's hopeless, you're worthless I don't need your love, I'm moving on So if your god sends me to hell, I know I'll see you there as well Now let's get something finally straight Your life won't end in a pleasant way So just close your eyes, and take your bitter pills, because I'd love to watch you choke I find it funny, looking at the mess we made Circling the floor, a sycophant display If I payed in love, you'll pay with blood My patience is starting to wear thin, I'd say it's time for us to begin I took the beating, of looks deceiving I'm strong, my hands withered to the bone In time I learned I'd rather live alone So if you took my hand, and said you want to be with me I'd say "I'd rather be fucking dead" So now my hands are soaked, and now the curtains close With a needle injecting fatal dosage of overdose How can your body, hung from the ceiling like a ghost, be such a sexually suggestive, sweet display? Don't tell me you don't have the time Cause I've watched your veins run dry With every note, this song I wrote, is now your curtain call It's hopeless, you're worthless I don't need your love, I'm moving on So for now I'll bid farewell Until we met again in hell...

I'm so sick and tired of always hearing the same lie That 9-5 slavery is the only reason for my life If I speak out of turn, they will cut out my tongue I'm not just a number in a machine, that controls everyone So dare to speak, cause you'll break the system And the party standing could start to cave in Cause only your thoughts can break the facade That your entire life is just a mirage I'll be the blemish on this model face of disgrace I'll be those words of truth, that you can't bear to taste I'll be the voice of change, so why can't you do the same? It's time for the new paradigm You can't put us in a box, and say we're dead inside For I know from these words that you say, we're the only ones still alive So don't try to tell me resistance isn't part of existence, Because I'll never do a thing you say We'll rise up one day, and you'll see We'll burn your big brother down until we're free We will rewrite the modern typical Because our sanity is not statistical I'll be the blemish on this model face of disgrace I'll be those words of truth, that you can't bear to taste I'll be the voice of change, so why can't you do the same? It's time for the new paradigm They might try to make me the person on the Telescreen Some enemy of the state, who resurrected Goldstein But they will never shut me up, they can't make my single thoughts a crime It's time for the new paradigm I can't pretend that I am not a human being I can't be calculated in my thinking And if I die, I know these words will all live on We can change the world if we all remain strong So let them know they're wrong Soon they'll hear our voices from the streets say You may control today But not the next or before We won't hear and sing along To your Hate Songs anymore I refuse to live inside a world So fucking artless So we shall meet again in the place Where there is no darkness I'll be the blemish on this model face of disgrace I'll be those words of truth, that you can't bear to taste I'll be the voice of change, so why can't you do the same? It's time for the new paradigm They might try to make me the person on the Telescreen Some enemy of the state, who resurrected Goldstein But they will never shut us up, they can't make our fucking thought a crime It's time for the new paradigm

Well, it's now such a cliche, but needs to be said The world only cares if you're pretty, or dead If you don't fit in the standard mold, you'll find you're hated and feared I hide all my weakness, each a skeleton in the closet But could I break open this shell, and be honest? When I speak of it, all the words just seem to be plastic... How much more do they think I can give Until I'm just bones on the floor? Pull me closer to the edge And yet somehow they'll still want some more Why does it seem we get on our knees For those who push us to the ground? How can one just let it go, When you're cursed And So Below I prayed and I prayed, until my spirit decayed How could one be left with nothing, and nothing left to blame? And when I needed God the most, I found he wasn't around So I learned to just sedate, it couldn't feel much worse I wear all these masks to throw you off my course I can't figure out, if it's you or me, I'm hiding from How much more do they think I can give Until I'm just bones on the floor? Pull me closer to the edge And yet somehow they'll still want some more Why does it seem we get on our knees For those who push us to the ground? How can one just let it go, When you're cursed And So Below I won't be a victim I won't be a waste I won't give my life to prove your wicked case I'll accept the hate, you say I deserve I'll accept the hate, you say I deserve I won't be a victim I won't be a waste I'm sick of your slander, get out of my face I accept the hate, you say I deserve I accept the hate, you say I deserve But when you die, please just know We're waiting down below You say I'm unholy, but what does that make you?

...The smoke is finally beginning to clear and beyond this sense of existence, I hear the call of what turns men into kings and killers... Yet I am not afraid. I once feared the depths; now I have become one with them In this final moment of clarity I will wear this mark upon my face Until the end of the world... This moonlights rising high What a perfect time to say goodbye I guess you finally heard the news That I'm locked up from you mental abuse Again, and this pain will never end This world's too much, nobody cares I was never meant to be happy here So now that I've made my mark tonight It's time to leave a make it right But I'll miss you so, I'll let you know What it's like On the other side
