1.
The Pilgrimage It's been a long time coming Running in circles tryin to chase my tail Running in circles but I've figured it out Remember who you will, But I'm not the person I was I'm not that violent person anymore That drunk you knew, He is dead.
2.
Our Filthy Hearts I'm older than my age I'm so fucking full of hate With bones so brittle and hands that shake there's a chance that this might break me There's no longing for peaceful pastures and a warm embrace I want fields of fire and beasts that breathe fate Fire fills the sky rip out all your eyes The evil fills its guts You all fucking rot I want destruction I want hell on earth I want you all to die to feel how I feel inside
3.
I Think I Can I am exactly where I want to be I'm doing exactly what's best for me So stop forcing your lifestyle down my fucking throat I found a way all my own and I call it home I sacrificed every ounce of dignity To forgive you and to forgive me I'll be exactly where I need to be I don't give a shit what you have to say With two feet and a fucking heartbeat I think I can I think I can...
4.
Triumph and Despair I am fucking disgusted by myself I never thought it would get this bad My blood is fucking B.O.I.L.I.N.G. Every bit of this is every bit my fault I buried my past and it's clawing it's way back to the surface I'm losing my will to fight Don't look down
5.
The Bonefinger I hate how skeptical I've become I don't believe anything,anymore Anyone, anymore And I hate the weather in this town My bones are stiff and it's getting colder I am what time and circumstance made me I am belief when no one will believe in me Bad decisions made and grudges held
6.
Flawed 00:44
Flawed I've got a brain in my skull And a heart in my chest Sometimes the wires get crossed I've never kept track of the things I've said But I've lost count of the thoughts in my head I'm trying to make sense of all the blood I've shed And I've got no idea where these scars came from All the things I will never get back and I can't remember
7.
Of Courage 00:59
Of Courage The waves, they overtake everything I am And when you don't know how to swim you're likely to drown I'm taking on water There's no sharks in these waves and I'm not looking for a way out *But I'm not a desperate man looking for a way out All this, is just fucking confusing I know one thing if nothing else This is not how this ends This is not how I die...
8.
Blood of the Father, Heart of Steel Raised in a house with eggshells for floors And windows that blocked out the sun The walls talked shit on all of us Behind our backs You watched a child weep And saw yourself gaining ground I choked down your pills and went to therapy To help you stay on your fucking high horse. Now I'm a man, I am, and it's ominous But I refuse to live in fear

5585845 03:06
5585845 We were raised on hatred I was raised on violence Right and wrong were replaced by fear and resentment Love was replaced by a wall That I built to keep people like you away And if I'm the monster, what does that make you? If I'm to blame, who are you judge me? I hope you're happy I hope you're fucking miserable I just wanted to be your sun I just wanted to be your sun
10.
The Sheep 01:03
The Sheep Kick your dead horse into oblivion Your faith won't save you Follow your sheep, believe their lies Your faith brings death You've got Nothing to believe in Nothing to hold on to Your English is just fine Your beliefs are fucked There is no sky opening up, There are no plagues or swarms of locusts, There is nothing.
11.
I'm On Fire 00:31
I'm On Fire Sometimes it's like someone took a knife baby Edgy and dull and cut a six-inch valley Through the middle of my soul At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet And a freight train running through the Middle of my head Only you can cool my desire I'm on fire
12.
Like a Coward If I could get rid of the guilt and the shame If I could forget about the wrongs I have done If I could find a way to pass the blame If I could tell you I felt remorse for it all Believe me I would. But I can't So I cower like a coward and admit defeat and I choke on every word I've ever said
