This Means War

Hide my face again 
Harbor in the shadows 
Feel this weight of sin 
Hammer it away 
Die - with the guilt 
Of a thousand evil soldiers 
Die - watch the scythe usher me astray 

I can't go on this way 
Not as I am today 
The ugly sight of me is strong 
Take aim a loaded gun 
Pull back on all who run 
A coward's truth inside the wrong 

This means war (3x) 

Lash your tongue of bane 
Carry me to nowhere 
Mental holocaust 
Battle never ends 
Lie - Mask the pain 
Of a child who's forsaken 
Lie - to my self 
Praise the new regime 

I left me long ago 
Reasons you'll never know 
No one to miss me when I'm gone 
With no more words to say 
No argument to stay 
Another post I don't belong 

This means war (5x) 

No home to call my own 
No finding someone new 
No one to break the fall 
No one to see me through 
No name to carry on 
No promise for today 
No one to hear the call 
No tattered flag to raise 

Walk the razor's edge 
Cut into the madness 
Question all you trust 
Buy into the fear 
I - see the man 
Ripping at my soul now 
I - I know the man 
I know him all too well 

There's nothing here for free 
Lost who I wanna be 
My serpent blood can strike so cold 
On any given day 
I'll take it all away 
Another thought I can't control 

This means war (5x)

Doing Time

Hahahahaha 

If walls can taught to spills the lies 
We'll see the world through devil's eyes 

I maintain an addiction 
been know to take it too high 
I got an itch with a loaded hair trigger 
And a one way ticket to fly 

When there's no writing on the wall 
I see the lifeless devils start to crawl 
And I don't need no lessons 
After all 
Everybody is doing their time 

Caught your eye in the corner 
Don't you look me wrong 
Fucked Up and thrown into the gutter 
gotta fix what don't belong 

I see the writing on the wall 
I see the lifeless devils start to crawl 
And I don't need no lessons 
After all 
Everybody is doing their time 

Uhhh 
That's just the price to play 
So tell me what you like 
Gotta hand on kerosene match tonight. 

Riiiighht... 

Had enough of opinions 
I got enough on my mind 
Sell your soul for approval and a dollar 
Got a pretty little body to grind 

I see your number on the wall 
I see the lifeless devils start to crawl 
And I don't need no lessons 
Watch the fall 
You lost my attention 
After all 
Everybody is doing their time

Shepherd Of Fire

Lets take a moment and break the ice 
So my intentions are known 
See, I pity in watching you suffer 
I know the feeling of being damned alone 
I have a storybook of my own 
Don't you see 

I am your pride, agent of wealth, bearer of needs 
(and you know what's right) 
I am your war, arming the strong, aiding the weak 
Know me by name, shepherd of fire 

Well I can promise you paradise 
No need to serve on your knees 
And when you're lost in the darkest of hours 
Take a moment and tell me who you see 
Wont tell ya who not to be 
Now you know 

I am your pride, agent of wealth, bearer of needs 
(and you know what's right) 
I am your war, arming the strong, aiding the weak 
Know me by name, shepherd of fire 

Deciple of the cross and champion of the suffering 
Emerse yourself in the kingdom of redemption 
Pardon your mind through the chains of the divine 
Make way for the shepherd of fire 

Through the ages of time 
I've been known for my hate 
But I'm a dealer of sinful choices 
For me it's never too late 

I am your pride, agent of wealth, bearer of needs 
(and you know what's right) 
I am your war, arming the strong, aiding the weak 
I am your wrath, I am your guilt, I am your lust 
(And you know it's right) 
I am your law, I am your stall, I am your trust 
Know me by name, shepherd of fire
