Mistakes
02:14

I'm gonna die, that's not the problem
I'm gonna be alive for a long time
Realized life is a chemical reaction to disguise it's the end times
Don't fear the grave, don't be its slave
Bury your shame, no one's to blame
We're all the same
Face the pain, it won't be easy
and you'll never be the same or forgiven
Pay the price, every ounce of blood you have
will not suffice, still gotta give it
'Cuz some mistakes can't be erased
They're here to stay and murder your faith
That anything will be OK
Lies for a lifetime, an empty seat for the soul
Letting go means losing all control
So forget my name, forget my face
Forget I came, whatever it takes
'Cuz we can't make love that doesn't break
We're all the same, we're all mistakes

We fucked up, in too deep and sinking fast
Arms thrashing, life flashing
Drink the ocean, drown the past
Nothing left to do but look back and smile
The last dying wave of a drowning child
Some bridges burn, in due time all are washed away
Can't put the pieces back together, let chaos have its way
Nothing left to lose, so look back and smile
Last dying wave of a drowning child
It's on the shore, it's in the house
It's everywhere, it's in my mouth
It's in my lungs, it's in my veins
It's in my heart, it's in my brain
High tide is here to reconcile
Nothing left to do but look back and smile
The last dying wave of a drowning child

Shark Food
02:40
|
|||
We're in the deep, under a dark as black as sleep
But I can see a ship of fools is moored to me
Salt in my smile, too much to drink for you
Going overboard is all that we'd ever do
I'm not jumping after, I'm not drowning too
Sink or swim or shark food, we're through
The tide is high, I'm moving on, you're gonna die
I hear you cry, but I won't watch or wave goodbye
Drops in oceans, anchors with chains cut free
Bloated floating corpses is all that we'd ever be
I wish I could save you, but now you are food
Sink or swim we're already screwed
Can't see the sky, can't feel the ground
They smell your blood and circle round
We're going down, we're going down
Sharks by your side, we never learned how to swim
How am I gonna save you when I'd die by diving in?
I'm not jumping after, I'm not drowning too
Sink or swim or shark food we're through
Sink or swim or shark food fuck you
Save me

Tsunami
02:25
|

Staring up at the sea
At the wave that's about to crash down on me
At the end of all hope and all memory
At the last gasp of air that I'll ever breathe
Tsunami
The waves will break our fate
High tide, can't run, too late
Seeds of life from the sea gotta return eventually
Tsunami
I'll go with the flow even though the sea doesn't have mercy to show
Inside of the tide it's the end of the ride, open wide, here we go
Mile high wall of water
I'll meet the horizon's demise on the beach, I'll feed sea creatures now
Seeds of life from the sea gotta return eventually

Washed Away
03:13
|
|||
Death gives no quarter, hope has no home
Cling to each other and die alone
Dead generations, a pile of souls
Reach for the heavens end up in holes
How deep do they go? Only one way to know...
We'll all be washed far away, far down the drain
What was it for? For today. Feel the pain.
Love is friction so make a friend
Life is fiction until the end
It just gets harder, that much is true
How much that matters is up to you
How deep is your doubt? You're about to find out...
We'll all be washed far away, far down the drain
What was it for? For today. Take the blame.
We're making it harder than it really needs to be
Ego's fucking up what's left of our humanity
We'll all be washed far away, far down the drain
What was it for? For today. Feel the pain.

Learn To Drown
02:36
|
|||
It's far too late to turn our fate around
I'm heading for the hills, at least I'll die on higher ground
Chaos is embracing a past that needs erasing
We saw it coming, there's no running, death is what we're facing
It's in the atmosphere and it's coming down
Rising fast like fear 'til we disappear
Too late to learn how to swim, learn how to drown
In time we'll all be living by the shore
When the oceans rise our paradises won't be anymore
It's time that we accept it
We fucked it up and wrecked it
The planet won't need saving when we're heading out the door
It's in the atmosphere and it's coming down
Rising fast like fear 'til we disappear
Too late to learn how to swim, learn how to drown
Learn to drown

Flash Before Our Eyes
02:56
|
|||
Comes a time when we all gotta drown
Hit the bottom to find our way out
Pay the ultimate price for a flash before our eyes
We're adrift in a ocean of shame
Gotta learn how to swallow the pain
Of a life that remains
It's a flash before our eyes
Holding on to the fear
In this moment your life disappears
The end isn't near
It's here
We're going where no one has been
No choice but suit up and dive in
With lifejackets untied for the flash before your eyes
Stop holding on to your skin
As if there was meaning within
Where the hell have you been for the flash before your eyes?
You and I are the same
We've been playing our lives like a game
Trying to level up names
Until memory fades
Hold my head under
Make me beg to breathe
Tear me asunder in this life that is dying despite all that's trying in me
We're going where no one has been
No choice but suit up and dive in
With lifejackets untied for the flash before your eyes
Stop holding on to your skin
As if there was meaning within
Where the hell have you been for the flash before your eyes?
Holding on to the fear
In this moment your life disappears
The end isn't near
It's here

Walk The Plank
02:59
|

Blindfolded, sword at my back
I see where this is going and I’m not coming back
Mutiny, I’m guilty, my future sank, gotta walk the plank
The water’s freezing, my body’s numb
My heart ain’t beating, my soul succumbs
Mutiny, I’m guilty
My future sank, gotta walk the plank
We wanted more you gave us less
Captain held captive, this is your mess
You’re gonna die, please tell us why, and we all are watching
Adrift at sea there is no shore
We need to feed, there is no more
Accountable and hateable, you fucking scoundrel
I hear the sirens call, I climb their caterwaul
I load the cannonball, I scream the battle call
Mutiny, who’s with me?
Their stares were blank, gotta walk the plank
(chorus)
Now you can decide, you die by the sword or you walk the board
Now you must decide, you die by the board or we skin your hide
I’ll walk the plank

Naked In The End
01:42
|
|||
Let’s begin by putting on our birthday suits
Adam, Eve and snake partaking in the fruit
Now we’re destined both to go
Where we come from what we know
Sex and death are absolute
You’re cute
We’re all naked in the end
We’re all naked in the end
Show you mine, show me yours
We’re two zeroes on all fours
We’re all naked in the end
And now our bodies are alive, no longer numb
Your every breath whispers the little deaths to come
And though it takes you by surprise
There is no end to prophesize
Our work of flesh is never done
What fun
We’re all naked in the end
We’re all naked in the end
Wanna fuck until we die?
Til the reaper comes inside
We’re all naked in the end

Eye Of The Storm
04:27
|
|||
Life is the end, death is the beginning
Gotta lose it all to make it all worth living
The past is a trap, the future is where we go to die
It's now, look it in the eye
Silence as our bodies crash into the sound
Comes a time when we all have to drown
The heart is a hardship, it shoulders the soul
The mind sees what the eyes believe
It tells me I'm in control, but the eye is a hole
But the "I" is a whole
But the "I" is a hole
