Yeeaa!!!

A devil in a midnight mass
He prayed behind stained glass
A memory of sunday class
Resurected from the past

Hold your breath and count to four
Pinky swears don't work no more
Footsteps down the hallway floor
Getting closer to my door
I was alive and now I'm singing

Silent nights, for the rest of my life
Silent nights, for the rest of my life
Silent nights, on the edge of your knife
Forgive me father!
Won't make it right

Silent nights, for the rest of my life
Silent nights, on the edge of your knife
You're Guilty!

A devil in a midnight mass
Killed the boy inside the man
The holy water in his hands
Could never wash away his sins

Hold your breath and count to four
Pinky swears don't work no more
Put my trust in god that day
Not the man that taught his way
I was alive and now I'm singing

Silent nights, for the rest of my life
Silent nights, for the rest of my life
Silent nights, on the edge of your knife
Forgive me father!
Won't make it right.

Silent nights, for the rest of my life.
Silent nights, on the edge of your knife.
You're Guilty!

Whisper, whisper don't make a sound
You bed is made, it's in the ground

Whisper, whisper don't make a sound
You bed is made, it's in the ground

Whisper, whisper don't make a sound!
Your bed is made it's in the ground!

Whisper, whisper don't make a sound!
Your bed is made it's in the ground!

Chorus:
Cast off the crutch that kills the pain
The red flag wavin' never meant the same
The kids of tomorrow don't need today
When they live in the sins of yesterday
(x2)

Well I've never seen us act like this
Our only hope is the minds of kids
And they'll show us a thing or two

Our only weapons are the guns of youth
It's only time before they tighten the noose
And then the hunt will be on for you

The red flag wavin' never meant the same,
No
The red flag wavin' never meant the same

Chorus (x2)

Like the smallest bee packs a sting
Like a pawn checkmates a king
We'll attack at the crack of dawn

Build a ladder where there's a wall
Don't be afraid to slip and fall
Speak for yourself or they'll speak for you

The red flag wavin' never meant the same,
No
The red flag wavin' never meant the same

Chorus (x2)

Like a fire, don't need water
Like a jury, need a liar
Like a riot, don't need order
Like a madman, needs a martyr

We don't need them (x8)

Chorus x6 (We don't need them screams start with the 3rd repetition)

We don't need them

Like a target drawn across my chest
She's a bullet in Russian Roulette
You said you'd never turn your back on me (Rescue me, rescue me)
Would you stand by me and bury me? (Bury me)

Why don't we end this lie,
I can't pretend this time
I need a friend to find,
My broken mind, before it falls to pieces

(This Suffering) Every time
You tried to leave me (This Suffering) blind
You'll never close (This Suffering) my eyes
You'll never close my eyes and watch me die

And when she spins the bottle round and round
Every time it leaves me gagged and bound
You said you'd never turn your back on me (Rescue me, rescue me)
Would you stand by me and bury me? (Bury me)

Why don't we end this lie
I can't pretend this time
I need a friend to find,
My broken mind, before it falls to pieces

(This Suffering) End this lie,
I can't pretend (This Suffering) this time
I need a friend (This Suffering) to find,
My broken mind, before it falls to pieces

(This Suffering) Every time
You tried to leave me (This Suffering) blind
You'll never close (This Suffering) my eyes
You'll never close my eyes and watch me die

Misery won't get the best of me
'Cause now I'm calling, yes I'm calling on your bluff, yeah!

Misery won't get the best of me
'Cause now I'm calling, yes I'm calling on your bluff
Throw down the cards I've had enough

Why don't we end this lie
I can't pretend this time
I need a friend to find,
My broken mind, before it falls to pieces

(This Suffering) Every time
You tried to leave me (This Suffering) blind
You'll never close (This Suffering) my eyes
You'll never close my eyes and watch me die

(This Suffering) End this lie
I can't pretend (This Suffering) this time
I need a friend (This Suffering) to find,
My broken mind, before it falls to pieces

(This Suffering) Every time
You tried to leave me (This Suffering) blind
You'll never close (This Suffering) my eyes
You'll never close my eyes and watch me die

March on, worker bees!
Know your enemy!

We take our orders given by the queen
We're not the killers, we're the worker bees
If you resist us you will feel our sting
Surrender now before the swarm sets in

Protect the hive from enemies!
Protect the hive from enemies!
Follow the herd mentality!
Can we fight to save our souls?

March on, worker bees!
Know your enemy!

A pollination coming from the west,
And in a flash we will invade your nest
Supply of honey flowing bottomless
Play by our rules or you'll be powerless

Protect the hive from enemies!
Protect the hive from enemies!
Follow the herd mentality!
Can we fight to save our souls?
And we'll march... along, with our blindfolds on
And we'll ride... the rails, with our pistols drawn
Can the Lord... above, forgive what we've done?
Can we fight to save our souls?

And we'll march... along, with our blindfolds on
And we'll ride... the rails, with our pistols drawn
Can the Lord... above, forgive what we've done?
Can we fight to save our souls?

Can we fight to save our souls?
Will we die to save our home?

Never understood how she could,
Mean so little to so many
Why does she mean everything to me?

Is it worth the pain, with no one to blame?
For all of my insecurities
How did I ever let you go?

Questioning her good intention
Jealousy’s a bad invention
When you push on glass, it’s bound to break

Even when she was defensive,
It just gave me more incentive
The more you squeeze, the more it slips away

I never walked so far on a lonely street
With no-one there for me
Is it worth the pain, with no one to blame?
For all of my insecurities
How did I ever let you go?

Accept this confession! …I’m walking on pins and needles
You’re not my possession! …I’m walking on pins and needles
My conscience is vicious! …I’m walking on pins and needles
I’m begging forgiveness! …I’m walking on pins and needles

I never walked so far on a lonely street,
With no one there for me
It took so long to see her in misery
And now it’s clear to me

That it’s worth the pain, always take the blame
For all your own insecurities
How did I ever let you go?

Twisted tongues will place you in their category
Face to face you'll hear them tell a different story
Loose lips may sink ships, but honesty's forever
Eyes of envy try to cut and try to sever

Cowards that hide behind their words
Don't care if feelings will get hurt
Beware the voice without a face
That's hidden underneath them...

(Covered In Cowardice)
Can't you see them?!
(Covered In Cowardice)
Can't you hear them?!
Beware the voice without a face
That's hidden underneath a...

(Covered In Cowardice)
Can't you see them?!
(Covered In Cowardice)
Can't you hear them?!
Cowards that hide behind their words
Don't care whose feelings will get hurt
Their eyes are blinded by their rage
Beware the voice without a face

When you're insecure, they'll find the fuel to start a fire
They're bitter pricks with only hatred to inspire
Level heads pray their revenge will make it better
Trust your instinct like you trust what's in the mirror

Cowards that hide behind their words
Don't care if feelings will get hurt
Beware the voice without a face
That's hidden underneath them...

(Covered In Cowardice)
Can't you see them?!
(Covered In Cowardice)
Can't you hear them?!
Beware the voice without a face
That's hidden underneath them...

(Covered In Cowardice)
Can't you see them?!
(Covered In Cowardice)
Can't you hear them?!
Cowards that hide behind their words
Don't care whose feelings will get hurt
Their eyes are blinded by their rage
Beware the voice without a face

(Covered In Cowardice)
Can't you see them?!
(Covered In Cowardice)

Cowards that hide behind their words
Don't care whose feelings will get hurt
Their eyes are blinded by their rage
Beware the voice without a face

She reads a book from across the street,
Waiting for someone that she'll never meet.
Talk over coffee for an hour or two, She
wonders why I'm always in a good mood.
Killin' time before she struts her stuff,
She needs supporting, I'll become the crutch.
She'll never know how much she means to me.
I play the game but I'm the referee.

Surrender every word, every thought every sound.
Surrender every touch, every smile, every frown.
Surrender all the pain we've endured until now.
Surrender all the hope that I lost you have found.
Surrender yourself to me.

Even though I know what I'm lookin' for,
She's got a brick wall behind her door.
I'd travel time and confess to her,
But I'm afraid she'd shoot the messenger.

Surrender every word, every thought every sound.
Surrender every touch, every smile, every frown.
Surrender all the pain we've endured until now.
Surrender all the hope that I lost you have found.
Surrender yourself to me.

I think I found a flower in a field of weeds,
I think I found a flower in a field of weeds.
Searching until my hands bleed,
This flower don't belong to me.

I think I found a flower in a field of weeds,
I think I found a flower in a field of weeds.
Searching until my hands bleed,
This flower don't belong to me.
This flower don't belong to me.
Why cant she belong to me?

Every word, every thought every sound.
Every touch, every smile, every frown.
All the pain we've endured until now.
All the hope that I lost you have found.

Surrender every word, every thought every sound.
Surrender every touch, every smile, every frown.
Surrender all the pain we've endured until now.
Surrender all the hope that I lost you have found.
(Surrender) I never had the nerve to ask,
(Surrender) has my moment come and passed.
(Surrender) I never had the nerve to ask,
(Surrender) has my moment come and passed.
(Surrender) I never had the nerve to ask,
(Surrender) has my moment come and passed.

(Surrender) I never had the nerve to ask.

A slap in the face,
And I can't erase,
These things that you say,
Don't make it all okay, it's not okay

When push comes to shove,
I'll put on the gloves,
Intentions are cruel,
I ain't nobody's fool you know

It hurts, my pride, step aside,
'Cause I don't need your...

Sympathy
Won't get the best of me!
Misery
That's what you're giving me!
Sympathy
It's just like trickery!
Breaking me down

A fistful of lies,
Dressed up in disguise,
And make no mistake,
I know they're all so fake, they're all so fake
My self-righteous friend,
I just can't pretend,
Your words are the truth,
Sincere only when they suit you

It hurts, my pride, step aside,
'Cause I don't need your...

Sympathy!
Won't get the best of me
Misery!
That's what your giving me
Sympathy!
It's just like trickery
Breaking me down

Sympathy
Won't get the best of me!
Misery
This shit is killing me!
Sympathy
It's just like trickery!
Breaking me down

Breaking me down

In a garage, beside a house, there is a luxury Sedan
And for his next monthly installment,
He's gonna go out with a bang!

Boy who always did what he was told,
Was promised to be king when he was old

Hit the brakes, hit the glass,
Time to shake the hands of fate
The mistakes of the past,
Flashed before his face

There is a man, intensive care
When he awakes he will declare,
"I've been dead for 20 years!
I won't let 20 more go by..."
Boy who always did what he was told,
Bought the only dream that he was sold

Hit the brakes, Hit the glass,
Time to shake the hands of fate
The mistakes of the past,
Flashed before his face

Burn the evidence... of my existence,
Clear the ashes on the ground
Burn the evidence... of all these things,
That pull my spirit down

Ever feel like you've been cheated,
Following what they believe?
Don't shake the hands of fate,
Don't shake the hands of fate,
There's no more time to waste!

Burn the evidence... of my existence,
Clear the ashes on the ground
Burn the evidence... of all these things,
That pull my spirit down

Burn the evidence!
Don't shake the hands of fate,
There's no more time to waste!
