Crawl
01:51
|
|||
Rise from the mud
to see the sun
Urge to break free
Become chains on me
Decades of crawling
prove to me nothing
Took so long to get here
Now I live in fear
You can tell me it was worth it
You can say its meant to be
Here I am, standing worthless
Wishing I was still asleep
(CRAWL) I'll do what it takes to survive
(SCOWL) All I see is disgust in their eyes
(SCUM) A danger to their way of life
Born in the darkness a stranger to light
Took so long to get here
Now I live in fear

Garbage
02:04
|

Can't believe that I ascended
to see you staring at me
Everything I fought against
doesn't mean anything
Pacing the earth to stay alive,
why did I have to rise?
I miss being under your feet,
where my flaws were always discrete
Dry air hardens my skin,
I was never designed to fit in
Constant anguish in my mind,
I was better off blind
What am I doing here?
Where do I belong?
Why did I trust you?
How can I get back?
There is nothing here
no room to rest my head
Groomed for your succeess
theres no turning back

Buried
01:42
|
|||
Stuck my head in the dirt so I could be alone
fingers pointed at me, all of my flaws exposed
Now its just me and my head only the loudest voice
I'd bury myself alive just to escape the noise
No one left to blame but myself
Just me and my shame in this hell
Stuck my head in the dirt
and now I'm all alone
my piece of mind is buried
and my flaws are exposed
Keep digging till they cant see me
Scratch at my chest to see that I'm empty
How much lower can I go
until everybody knows
that Im just another lie
living for my next goodbye
next goodbye
next goodbye

Rubble
01:41
|
|||
I always knew that I would sink
Never meant to breath air
I knew this world would never change
Could’nt stop your world from staining my hands,
I tried so hard to keep em clean
Every Step forward it’s A HUNDRED STEPS BACK
how much deeper could I sink?
What’s left for me but confusion and pain?
Never meant for things to fall apart this way
Reduced to Rubble and I couldn’t pretend
Better off dead than left to rot in your head
You live and learn
I struggle and squirm

Descend
03:25
|

I gave it my best try,
put my fate in your hands that Hung me out to dry
nothing here for me,
Too hard to live this lie
I know what I am,
I know where I belong
I’ve wasted so much time,
Just to admit i’m wrong
I feel the scowl, twist the knife in my back
drop to my hands and knees and
Crawl, nothing left to lose,
the truth is hard to swallow
There is no life above,
when you were BORN FROM SCUM
Look myself in the eyes.
To face what I've become
I ACCEPT my place in this world
MAKES-NO- SENSE trying to push it
I-GO BACK to the place I Left alone,
BUT I STILL CALL IT HOME
I couldn't make my-self pretend
So I’ve made up my mind.
now I must
-DE-SSCEEENNDDD!

Submerge
01:00
|
|||
stuck in my tracks
starring down death
no turning back
won't be the first to blink
shortness of breath
no time to rest
war in my head
won't be the first to sink
I SUBMERGE MYSELF

Scowl
02:02
|
|||
Is anyone out there?
I've been looking (I've been looking)
I've been crawling and following your voice
I wont let you be a reflection
Need to find you before I wash away
Footprints I leave for you wont stay
can't live alone no tracks no legacy
We both know
that i'll sink inside myself
no place to go
no hope, no way out
Is anyone out there?
Take my hand and you'll see
knew all along I was always empty
I don't care. I'll always be
the nothingness is the biggest part of me
I'm not alone
I'm not the only one out in the cold
I'm not alone
The mud dog scowl will lead me to my home

WASH MY SOUL
Away from this place
TRANSCEND THIS WORLD
End my days
My life is a disgrace
Swallow this spit with a smile on my face
Can’t prey on the dead
When my identity is trapped in their heads
My existence is a waste
But I bet you’re gonna miss me when the frost sticks to my face (ah!)
Watch me freeze, end my days
A trophy for the next age
WASH MY SOUL
Away from this place
TRANSCEND THIS WORLD
End my days
How can I survive? (How can I survive?)
I’ve got nothing LEFT TO LEAVE behind
And it only gets worse
I got what I deserved, this pain was earned
Wash my soul, away from this place
Transcend your fears, end my pain
Il stay, out of reach
Become a ghost that HAUNTS YOU WHILE YOU SLEEP
This earth wasn’t enough for me
I’ll stand my ground and wait for it to freeze

Lost World
01:48

Thought i could make time stop
But it just melted away
Chip at my past from the top
After all these years my regret stays
this is what i get for taking a stand
Nothing to show in these empty hands
Another day spent under their feet
I'm ob-so-lete
CAN’T RUN FROM YESTERDAY
IT WON’T LEAD TO A NEW WAY
Hoped i would go with the cold
Frozen still while you grew old
Can’t start fresh
Meant for death
Can’t begin again
Left for dead
The sun burns the same
No-one remembers my name
every turn another blank face
a whole world, lost in waste

Breather

Day after day, your sun exposes me
Watching your gaze, there's nothing you don't see
Wasting your air, I’ll never stay
You can keep stomping but I’ll reach the Bay
Think about yourself
Safe inside your shell
Soon you’ll be exposed
Your true colors will show
Night after night, the darkness conceals me
I move while you sleep and I hunt while you dream
Rejecting your light, I'll never learn
Think you are righteous but You will burn
Nights awake go live your lie
struggling to reach the sky
Look below to see me grow
Now I’ll live among the low

MUD DOGS!, BORN FROM SCUM
MUD DOGS!, we’ve become
Living in your grave
We are not the same
Killing with no shame
Regretting my name
Look what ive become
A shadow to no one
A nuisance to the wind
A sinner without sin
MUD DOGS!, BORN FROM SCUM!
MUD DOGS!, we’ve become
I’m slipping, can’t seem to stay on my feet
Tainted my soul just to keep these hands CLEAN
I’m ripping, this callused skin at the seams
But there was never any hope because the stains run so deep
For so long, we’ve been buried beneath
now we rise up to the surface (to this world that don’t deserve us)
So wrong (so wrong), waiting like a dormant disease
We’re the garbage of this planet it's all you can see
WE ARE THE MUD DOGS,
and we were born from scum
WE ARE THE MUD DOGS,
AHHHHH!

Captivity
02:57

Each day starts out the same.
Another maze with no escape.
No use for me in this place.
Look down at me with no embrace
Back to my cage
Trapped in my rage
Fed with their lies
Lost in their design
New traps they set for me were nothing that i haven't seen
Looking back to the times when i never had to believe
In anything other than what was right in front of me
Hands down my throat trying to take all that is left of me
Take a deep breath
They’re not impressed
Got nothing left
I am just a pest
