lyrics

Everyone looks so perfect tonight, dressed in body bags so ready to die.
We walk around searching for answers that cannot be found.
Realize this and bury your hopes in the ground.
Complacency doesn't belong here, complacency doesn't belong here.
I saw the flaws in the plan, systematic failure within the structures.
Don't stray from what we know, don't stray from what we know.
Even though I am worse than a beast, don't I deserve to...
Even though I am worse than a beast, don't I deserve to live?
Don't I deserve to live?
Oh, the possibilities are endless, is the after life another chance? A second breath?
Will we soar above the worlds?
I watch them feed, they follow aimlessly with no thought to question.
I watch them feed, they follow aimlessly with no thought to question.
We're all faced with the same question...
Will I soar above the world?
How can we believe what we think we know,
when all we know isn't real?
Everyone looks so perfect tonight.
Dressed in body bags, so ready to die.
Dressed in body bags, ready to die.

This is just a purely fun album to listen to. Plenty of djenty guitar tones with amazing solos and occasionally off the wall/unexpected riffs. 8/10 syn

Awesome lyrics. Awesome screams. Intense riffs. Intense drums. One of the best albums I know. "Sleep Paralysis" is my absolute favourite song besides the lyrical intense song "Life//List". ShatteredBlackStar
