In Flames Album

This past to go
While I collapse
It's not a false alarm
The ashes settle in

I guess,
We are the insane as we ignore the mirror's truth

Should I join the feast
Should I acknowledge the leash
The future in captivity
I'm not who I'm supposed to be.

We are not even trying
I let this light explode.

The bleeding
We deceive them
Fuel the lies
The time
Idle reason
We should live by laws
Call the swarm
Fade in another false hope

We are not even trying
Let this light explode.

We are not even trying
Find the exit sign and disappear.

We are not even trying
Let this light explode.

We are not even trying
Find the exit sign and disappear!

Look at the dead outside my window
Wonder what's on their mind
Why do they run
They all seem to have a mission
But then they cry themselves to sleep

[Chorus:]
You receive what you give
And this is like nothing
Oh I feel like shit
But at least I feel something

Is this all you meant to be

There are marks in the pavement
You walk this route too many times
What if I changed the signs
Would you even take notice

[Chorus]

Is this all you have to give
Straight jacket you in
These shapes surrender

[Chorus x2]

Hopeless times approach, just give into the chaos
Strangely I find comfort here
Impatient and curious of what may come

And so the rampge begins
Against the headache I can't win

Keep me in the dark
I Don't want to take part
Prefer to be forever numb

Nothing great can come out of this
I'm a hostage to myself
I fear I might collapse on the razor's edge
And I fear i'll realize when it's too late

And so the rampge begins
Against the headache I can't win

Keep me in the dark
I Don't want to take part
Prefer to be forever numb

Sleepless again
I need to easy my mind
And kill what burns inside

Sleepless again

I can't win
Keep me in the dark
I Don't want to take part
Prefer to be forever numb

The serpent knows,
When the curtain falls,
In denials blindfold,
It greets another day

Don't believe the mask
It attempts to lie,
The perfect ten,
When reality caves in

Don't tell me,
Tell my ghost,
Cause I blame him
For all I don't want to know

I found secrets about life untold

Life's wrapped in a riddle,
Easier said than done,
Hate to play the victim,
Rather run and hide.

Don't believe the mask
It attempts to lie,
The perfect ten,
When reality caves in

Don't tell me,
Tell my ghost,
Cause I blame him
For all I don't want to know

I found secrets about life untold,
Let them take me far away

Call back in place,
It easier to cope behind the curtain,
Wipe the worries away
No thought about consequence

Don't believe the mask
It attempts to lie,
The perfect ten,
When reality caves in

Don't tell me,
Tell my ghost,
Cause I blame him
For all I don't want to know

I found secrets about life untold,
Let them take me far away

I am my deepest shadow,
Something I can't ever neglect,
Rise above these ashes,
Before they fade away

In dark moments, I know better,
Within destruction, I see clearly

From here to new grounds,
Suppose I will do it alone,
Will fight for that design,
Feel this up your conviction

Staring into truth,
I am, the way,
Existence carefull made,
In all your everlasting complications

In dark moments,I know better
Within destruction, I see clearly

From here to new grounds,
Suppose I will do it alone,
Will fight for that design,
Feel this up your conviction

Forget the promised land,
There was never an invitation,
Today I create my own,
Before there was sorrow and lack of attention

From here to new grounds,
Suppose I will do it alone,
Will fight for that design,
Feel this up your conviction

Everyday takes figuring out how to live,
Sometimes it feels like a mistake,
Sometimes its a winners parade,
Delight and angers,
I guess thats the way its supposed to be...

Please heal me, I cant sleep
Thought I was unbreakable,but this is killing me
Call me, everything
Make me fell unbreakable, now you set me free

I feel the fear takes hold
Afraid this hell I create is my own
Come my fatigueness, I cant take it anymore
This used to be my own world, but now I've lost control

Please heal me, I cant sleep
Thought I was unbreakable,but this is killing me,
Call me, everything,
Make me fell unbreakable, now you set me free

Chasing leftovers,
Under the fading sun,
Searching for shelter,
I feel my time has come

Please heal me, I cant sleep
Thought I was unbreakable,but this is killing me,
Call me, everything,
Make me fell unbreakable, now you set me free

Consume the curse
that brings you down
the fading liar
becmomes known in front of you

you've decided to come
and reclaim your future
this is a call to arms
unrequested this time

feed the hunger
climb on up
repress they live
you are not alone
its there in front of you

you've decided to come
to reclaim your future
this is a call to arms
unrequested this time

avoid the mold
desperate you regress
move through me
ill be your tired

you've decided to come
to reclaim your future
this is a call to arms
unrequested this time

Tell me which side I'm on,
Approaching constant failure.
Tell me which side I'm on,
(What's friend or foe?)
Approaching constant failure.

Between love and hate,
Which path to follow?
How can I keep balance in this race?
Come faith, I'm dying...slowly.

In many ways I'm the burden,
That divides us from the light,
In many ways you're the halo,
That keeps my spirit alive.

Temptation, if you could reave a part,
In me you evoke the dark...away.
Now free me and watch me heal.

Tell me which side I'm on,
Approaching constant failure.

Between love and hate,
Which path to follow?
How can I keep balance in this race?
Come faith, I'm dying.

Bemused by trials and tribulations in force of my life,
Fly from here but as the chosen pessimist,
Carve my name in stone,
Carve my name in stone.

Bemused by trials and tribulations in force of my life,
(Fly from here but as the chosen pessimist,)
How can I keep balance in this race?
Come faith, I'm dying.

Used to be original,
but now i tremble in fear
i am like everyone else
alabary spell

Is this how it feels
to reach black bottom
want to know how it feels to be forgotten

I become the distance,
I am the sober and irrelevant,
I don't feel but in this,
what is there to believe?

I'm not asking for much
just a moment
a chance to pick up the pieces
happyness please come home

what if it ends right here
how do i change it
Hoping to find a saviour
I lost my way

I become the distance,
I am the sober and irrelevant,
I don't feel but in this,
what is there to believe?

is this how it feels
to reach black bottom
want to know how it feels to be forgotten
hoping to find a saviour

i lost my way

I become the distance,
I am the sober and irrelevant,
I don't feel but in this,
what is there to believe?

I'm so restless,
These walls drain my thoughts
Rooms with no sun,
I cant find my way out

It used to be my home
These days,far from my comfort zone
The life I live without control
Fear is taking hold

I should cross the line
Confront lives too blind

Hear a distant cry
Would you tell me how
To break the cycle that I'm in
And discover the living

I don't recognise my soul
Condemned to live in this black hole
Deep within time,
They crave warning signs

Hear a distant cry
Would you tell me how
To break the cycle that I'm in
And discover the living

I should cross the line
Confront lives too blind

Hear a distant cry
Would you tell me how
To break the cycle that I'm in
And discover the living

There's a hill to climb
Would you dream if I,
Design the future
And lock the end of time

You wont,
Find a friendly face in the crowd,
It's quite amusing to see,
How you suffer now!

I refuse,to let you steal my delight,
When you awake, but it strengthens my night rage,
I've seen you kill many dreams,
But I've got brand new armour, and my weapons are way ahead of your's.

How does it feel to be demolished,
Fate plunged into thin air,
Strange to feeling to be nothing.

All the words I hear,
They don't mean a thing
All drenched in fear,
Then I let you pray

Make me bother, I dare you,
I've got the strength I need,
But await my darkest moment,
When the guilt doesn't get to me.

All the words I hear,
They don't mean a thing
All drenched in fear,
Then I let you pray

I used to adore you
The lies made sense somehow
Gave myself away without a fight
But betrayal claims its price

At first I was scared
Not used to murders mind
But there was something beautiful
So powerful, different, so divine

Pushing the faith
Build on our rage

Falling ideals
Broken seals
March to the shore
You are a killer!

Is it something that's always been there
What's the distance in this cage?
??
I love to release the rage

But everything has its end
I've done my deed
The final bullet was always meant for me!

Pushing the faith
Build on our rage

Falling ideals
Broken seals
March to the shore
You are a killer!

But everything has its end
I've done my deed
The final bullet was always meant for me!

Falling ideals
Broken seals
March to the shore
You are a killer! (2x)

[Japanese Bonus Track]

Consume, just like a worm,
Catch a glimpse of the sun through cracks,
Everything, I swallow whole,
And hide before the flood.

The way I see things,
I wish they could be true,
But take me all the way.
The trail of the torment,
Is not a path anymore,
But take me for a ride.

Delete the past, the fear,
Delete the past, every step is pure,
Delete the past from here, forward,
Delete the past, every step is pure.

Afraid of lost control,
Still there's a part of me that wants to feel insecure,
Afraid of lost control,
It keeps me on the edge.

Delete the past, the fear,
Delete the past, every step is pure,
Delete the past from here, forward,
Delete the past, every step is pure.

The way I see things,
I wish they could be true,
But take me all the way.

Delete the past, the fear, forward,
Delete the past, every step is pure,
Delete the past from here, forward,
Delete the past, every step is pure.

[Japanese Bonus Track]

We all find ourselves,
In honour of the good cause.
How empty we've become,
With our sight to be the true force.

Does every instinct say you're right?
I think sometimes there is doubt.

You're waiting for a re-run,
But yesterday won't come.
Want to relive the moment,
But yesterday is done.

Lies and desperation lead us through as we're trying to be heroic,
I swept the world (?) to watch you manage.
Take a step back,
I'll tie you to it.

You're waiting for a re-run,
But yesterday won't come.
Want to relive the moment,
But yesterday is done.

Hopes and prayers in pursuit of salvation,
Take a short cut, it only bends our cause.
But as far as I remember,
There is nothing that will get back the days you lost.

Does every instinct say you're right?
I think sometimes there is doubt.

You're waiting for a re-run,
But yesterday won't come.
Want to relive the moment,
But yesterday is done.

[Japanese Bonus Track]

We believe but we are deceased
Or soon to be.
I act surprised
You've seen the seas,
It's just enough to feed the trees.

We believe but we are not free,
This wasteland is our prison.
I act surprised?
I see the bones through your skin,
This radiation from within.

I grant you this torn land,
I'd rather not live here anymore.
Don't say I didn't try,
But I'd rather not live here anymore.

We believe but we don't see
The coming of the storm.
Why act surprised?
There are warnings from time to time,
Signs of our own decline.

We are the scavengers,
We plunder and rape,
We're the guests here, the new breed,
But act like it's ours to take.

I grant you this torn land,
I'd rather not live here anymore.
Don't say I didn't try,
But I'd rather not live here anymore.

We believe but we don't see.

I grant you this torn land,
I'd rather not live here anymore.
Don't say I didn't try,
But I'd rather not live here anymore.

I grant you this torn land,
I'd rather not,
Don't say I didn't try,
But I'd rather not live here anymore
