What have they done to us? Now my lungs are full and I can't breathe Looked in a mirror with mind to deceive I/It went dark as you entered the door In the mirror do you see what I saw? What have they done to us so we are weak? What have they done to us so we can't speak? Now what have they done to us? What have they done? Now in the mirror do you see what I saw?

I've heard, all your excuses I've heard how har it was for you I've heard it's best to move on I've heard Jesus said "forgive" But I'VE REALLY TRIED BUT I'LL NEVER FORGIVE YOU I'VE REALLY TRIED BUT I'LL NEVER FORGIVE YOU I'VE REALLY TRIED BUT I'LL NEVER FORGIVE YOU I'VE REALLY TRIED BUT I'LL NEVER FORGIVE YOU I've heard, all your excuses I've heard how har it was for you I've heard it's best to move on I've heard Jesus said "forgive" But I TRIED REALLY HARD BUT I'LL NEVER FORGIVE YOU I TRIED REALLY HARD BUT I'LL NEVER FORGIVE YOU I TRIED REALLY HARD BUT I'LL NEVER FORGIVE YOU I TRIED REALLY HARD BUT I'LL NEVER FORGIVE YOU

There is nothing There is nothing There is nothing Staring at the void, for all you have destroyed Naked and alone, all your wasted skin and bone A mouthful of debt, for all your worthless comforts Now you finally see how stupid you really are And now all your wealth, and all your vicious hatred All your snobbish pride, in your religion, race and country Joins your pointless IQ score, and all your stupid hatred And you will watch it all turn to nothing You really thought you were better? There is nothing There is nothing There is nothing No eternal reward awaits you No eternal reward awaits you You have lived your whole horrible life for nothing

Empty Eyes 03:43
She's got empty eyes Now she's got empty eyes She's got empty eyes Now she's got empty eyes We'll bring her down Down to her knees We'll bring her down And eat at her disease So hate Now she's got empty eyes Now she's got empty eyes Now she's got empty eyes Now she's got empty eyes I gave one, made her swell with pride But that baby died Now she's got empty eyes Now she's got empty eyes

So this has happened again Stripped naked how like revenge So this has happened again Turn back time like it will end the same What it is you want to see? A grip like cut, a paradox, a burnt out mind of insanity What is it you want to see? Never has field been so bright A catacomb above this land Never has it been so dull It's torn and screamed torn And ripped up soul What it is you want to see? A grip like a paradox a burnt out mind of insanity What it is you want to see? They're going nowhere without their control They think they can freeze your soul This is nothing like reality All we have is you and me What is it you want to see? A grip like cut, a paradox, a burnt out mind of insanity What is it you want to see? So this has happened again Stripped naked how like revenge This is nothing like reality Now I never thought we'd get to see this As if I am we and you and are me Sitting, standing, lying just waiting As if I am we you are and me A darkest light, the open eye So stopped it, no unlike Not unlight No unlike to another time Not any reason But feels the same If it wasn't for you would it exist? If it wasn't for you would you be here? It's reality clutching the next drink It's as if it gives me time to think Leaning back or turning head And feeling so real, but it can't feel itself What is it inside? Something for you to keep? A drag on A drag on A drag on It's a drag on time

Mouthful of bricks I've watched sunsets die Won over by pricks I've even heard you all lie Face full of beer I crawl to this place Even now I imagine you here Mouthful of bricks I've seen everything lie I've spent it all living for kicks Gonna kill myself until I die I'm gonna kill myself until I die You can't help me Mouthful of bricks I've see everyone high If you want to get here, want to see you try I'm gonna kill myself until I die Kill myself until I die First look first hate first fault First demon first reason to step First OD first cut First OD and first cut You can't help me I saw a man yesterday who won't see tomorrow
