Drift Into Madness
04:01

This life
It’s not the real me
Born of
Confused illusions
Born of
Insecurity
This time
It’s brought me to my knees
It’s deafening
It’s strangling
It leaves me eating teeth
These cracks
As they begin to show
The terror slowly taking form
The unwanted
Starts to grow
You’ll find
There’s just no place to hide
Once these talons find you
They’ll grip and rip you blind
(Chords)
Watch closely
As I turn to the darkness
As I step through the tempest
As I drift into madness
As I drift into madness
I try
Control is beyond me
It comes and goes
It ebbs and flows
It’s ripping at my seams
Denied
And left here on my own
Your judgment here
Is crystal clear
You’ve cast the biggest stone
(Chorus)
Please help me
As I drift into madness

Burning in the Delta fire
It’s another new day dawning turning into a dead end day
I can feel the bad air rising daring me to stay
This is just the beginning this is just the start
I can feel this place is tearing as it pulls me apart
It’s time to roll
It’s time to ride
It’s time to fly
Burning in the delta fire
I can feel my demons rising
As they line up to play
I’m standing on midnights edge
Until the break of day
All around me safety burns
There’s nowhere to hide
Looks like it is my turn
my ashes are my demons prize
It’s time to roll
It’s time to ride
It’s time to fly
Burning in the delta fire

Quick With A Knife
03:41
|

The righteous
Have not spoken
The righteous
Have not seen
The darkness
Can’t provoke them
For they are clean
I’ve stood
Upon the massive
I’ve laid
Beneath the low
Stood up
And I’ve been passive
It’s all for show
Cause I
Ya know I’m quick with a knife
We’ve summoned
All our courage
We’ve mustered
All our pride
Resentments
Only flourish
When they can hide
Take back
The dust and cobwebs
Remove
The rusted nails
Set free
The ghosts in my head
And it’s betrayals
Cause I
Ya know I’m quick with a knife

Underground
04:16

I can feel the sun
Setting on my back
I see the rising moon
Up ahead in black
The clock moves quick
No turning back
Is that my fate
Up ahead in black
(Chorus)
Will I leave my mark before the end
Live a life that’s more than I pretend
Withering away without a sound
Will I wake
Before I’m underground
Before I’m underground
The cold creeps in
I can hear it laugh
It’s beckoning
Up ahead in black
Turn to run
The whip is cracked
Will I succumb
Up ahead in black
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
I can see that time
Has done nothing for me
I can hear the screams
Deafening me
I can sense the dark
Closing on me
I can feel the life
Bleeding from me
Accept my fate
The cards are stacked
I gave nothing
And now I’ll get it back
(Chorus)

Tattoo
04:11
|
|||
Something that never goes away
And once it’s here it’s here to stay
Ain’t no machine there ain’t no blade
That can take off what has been laid
Watch it cut
Watch it bleed
Watch it cut
Watch it bleed
Giving you what you need
Your life is tattooed
It’s part of you
I take no loss
I take no gain
Pictures of the demons never slain
And I will never be the same
Echoes of my past still remain
Watch it cut
Watch it bleed
Watch it cut
Watch it bleed
Giving you what you need
Your life is tattooed
It’s part of you
It’s part of you
Lyrics C. Dauenhauer

Ever Faster
04:39
|
|||
It starts slow
Moving ever fast
It’s your blood
Your last breath it’s after
It’s my blood
Made of bone
It’s my flesh
That’s my own
Aimlessly
Shamelessly
Heartlessly
Endlessly
It bleeds through
Ever flowing faster
It hunts you
Ever growing faster
Ever faster
One will live
One will die
There’s no give
Choose your side
One will fall
One will stand
Loosing all
Force your hand
Aimlessly
Shamelessly
Heartlessly
Endlessly
It bleeds through
Ever flowing faster
It hunts you
Ever growing faster
Ever faster
Lyrics C. Dauenhauer
