All by myself, still swimming The salt of the sea will make me brave Floating, the chance to simply be (moor fo tuo gninnur ton m'i epoh I) I've been so alone, now I'm coming home!
2.	Jaam E Jaam 03:35	lyrics	buy track
Welcome to the holy land of dread I do not believe that we have met Is it time when we will see it yet? Parties almost over, get your head Will you help me out, I'm running from a plow Can I do the deed? Wipe this slate to clean I admit I'm fucking up again Slip into that hole, 'will be your friend One can only hope to see a chance Breed the final meaning to an end therewassomethingelsethatiforgotherecouldntfinditbeenlookingforever Storming in a dream Visions from above Is it not enough I'm all out of luck? theyrebreathinglifeinyou

4.	Antarctica 05:38	lyrics	buy track
What's this feeling? They're lighting up the sky Same old reason they give when they hide Pyramids of chrome, the owls cry in the night They added a chromosome, with the ark of gabe Running away, betrayed, the same, story they play Is there another way? A way, explain You must give in Fly to the southern tip, reality begins to slip Guardians of space and time, conviene with their concubine Humanity will never know, just sit there enjoy the show The owl still cries, he only wants the answer To the questions why and where, defy Down in the ice under the lake Cured from the space, invasion Down in that cold, away, far, that's where they are Antarctica (we manipulated your DNA, gave you gifts beyond your thoughts, you still have the chance to build a world like ours!!) Send it off to get your reward They call you down, faith is restored Jumping higher, feeling lighter!
5.	Carnival 03:10	lyrics	buy track
I remember that one time at the carnival Feeding on the poison-laced cotton candy I was running uphill, time to get my fill, overloading feels, try to put the bloody past behind, then at last, I saw a bunch of little lights, dancing sheep, crazy peeps, no police, anything, and then it walked by, and it didn't even have a face......I was stunned. But it offered me a prize, (that I was still alive) I was waking up inside the nucleus of everything and now all these people are staring at me, got their eightball eyes up on the grand prize but, you might have trouble getting what you want! well I was, in my soul on top of everything! up and down the ferris wheel will make you feel the clown will steal I just saw an elephant on a motorcycle, what?! Round and round and round and round on the carousel the fairs in town The clown will steal your only feel and time the only thing that's real, YEE [uncontrollable oppressive laughter]
6.	Firefight 06:04	lyrics	buy track
IT came through the window and it went on up the stairs Knew, years ago, had to finish this affair Got to the room and stopped to watch her sleep Erased, the wound that is responsible for giving life to me! The firefight you've set in play PLAY DEAD (keeprunningfromthis) A friend came over to tell me that everything was wrong Couldn't help but cry because I knew it for so long Now the missing chunk of life delivers me to hell Future frightens me and I don't like the smell Excuses and lies Just face it Face the fears of all your years Sit there and take it Throw it out your life it clear Cant change it Change will happen so they say Don't fake it Leave it all and make your way today (#@$%#&$, #@$%#&$!!!)
7.	Crocodile Hunter 02:27	lyrics	buy track
Professionality You found a different species and now you fight for your life Sink or swim, or bite or sting? Heaven, yes, you will see! And now you hang with all the kitties And drinking with all of the puppies So you live and you die.
8.	Ares 04:40	lyrics	buy track
He paid it off in all his righteousness Money, power, money, fear, give it all to me I can show you how to take the lives of millions I'll give you nation, power, and fire, and fury! Its really ok blow them away It wont take away bomb them away Raging forth with guided wings, show this This last happening of your inherent sin Yes, they're running away! Rivers of blood flowing in the streets How did you pull off that death-defying feat? Watching them as they all retreat The blood the tears the bones, such an utter defeat! Raging forth with guided wings show this This last happening of your inherent sin The God of war(truth), the fallen king, becomes the only thing Cancel the verse, summon the curse, theyre all a bunch of pigs Destroy
9.	Spit 05:36	lyrics	buy track
You swallowed lies, again Regurgitate it, again You lost your dinner again! Did not like that taste, throw it up Mold into a shape, spit it out See it on the floor, so broken and sore So picturesque, it is You didn't like the taste of it Digestion of a sin It still remains within And then you look down You keep on looking down Not one solitary sound You keep on looking down Why don't you look up?
10.	For You 03:33	lyrics	buy track
Wait a minute! What's this? I'm faded, I'm going home I'm on the way to another zone There's trouble around, I'm all messed up This is the only way out Falling, keep going, I'm never stopping Tonight is the night that I cancel, anything and everything Well I establish the dark secrets of life Eat redpills for breakfast a diet that's good for the brain and the spine, YEE Hey you, are you high? This song is for you OK Let's try it a different way Well I'm wasted and I'm hungry Liquid, keep pouring Can't shake this thing and its beginning to bother me I'm hammered, but I'll have one more, just one more When you're high and you cant find the fleshlight Breathe deep and let it out, then you will find yourself Because this song will always be there for you I'll save it for you Hey you, you lie, this song is for you!
11.	Big Guy 02:00	lyrics	buy track
Don't mess with the flight, man Follow him! He told me not to fear, that it'd just come later He took my blood, crashed a plane, with no survivors Because he's a BIG GUY I survived a flight with the biggest of guys He broke me For the rest of my days, to KeK I will pray By the way, my name is Slade Wilson, relative to the testimony He broke you
12.	Leveldown 04:55	lyrics	buy track
I can't sleep When your friends become their enemies Afraid to see The truly conscious side of me Step inside All the lies the shame the blame the game Look the other way a theft Wait until there's nothing left Tears from my only shining light Can you live with this sacrifice? Leveldown This hate is fear My fate is dear The world is crumbling I know you see it too don't play Change it suddenly It's not too late to see this through, the deed I can't find it here Only down from here I need an answer At least I have the music, its a good thing, its important, its... Look how I made you laugh again Hope things will be straight when it ends Tears from my only shingin light Can you live with this sacrifice? Trust EXP
13.	Return ((Reprise)) 22:33	lyrics	buy track
All by myself, still swimming The salt of the sea will make me brave Floating, the chance to simply be I'm still alive, still breathing The salt of the earth will make me fade Eroding, forever in this place (I hope I'm not running out of room) [literal return] Went to the unknown, now I have returned!
