1. These Cities, Our Graves
We are dying
We are diseased
We are the cancer that's killing these streets
We are dying
We are diseased
We are the cancer that's killing these streets
2. Distance
Hollow eyes
But alive and still diseased
Everyone is screaming
But no one's saying a thing
One thousand
Empty words from a thousand empty voices
Won't change a fucking thing
No culture
No movement
No expression
Just distance
Romanticised failure and apathy
Their cross's keep burning
Blind eyes keep turning
Centuries of progression for an age of ignorance
Do you feel the guilt?
Do you feel?
Lifetimes spent longing
For an image
No consequence
Just decadence and greed
And nothing's gonna make you live forever
Do you feel the guilt?
Wash the blood from your hands
Do you feel the guilt?
Wash the blood from your hands
Blackened eyes
Are you breathing?
Empty words
Is your heart still beating?
You can't live forever
We just want to live now
Find your voice
Find those words
Take it back
The time is now
The time is now
3. Show Some Heart
The weak are getting weaker
And the youth are dead or pacified
You're living your TV dream
While innocents are bred to die
I'll take a stand for those who can't
I'll scream for those who can't speak
I'll take a stand for those who can't
I'll scream for those who can't speak
Go
Caged and slaughtered
A life of misery
Just to line the pockets
Of rich companies
While we suck at the hand of
Media and corporations
We grow fat and sedated
We kill and destroy
Our life is (go vegan) over consumption (go vegan)
Our life is (go vegan) over consumption (go vegan)
Go
Caged and slaughtered
A life of misery
Just to line the pockets
Of rich companies
While we suck at the hand of
Media and corporations
We grow fat and sedated
We kill and destroy
The weak are getting weaker
And the youth are dead or pacified
I'll take a stand for those who can't
I'll scream for those who can't speak
Go vegan
4. Stranger
I still remember who you were
And who you claimed to be
And still
Inside
And out
You're fucking empty
Nothing but a shell
With fake emotion, feigned personality
I still remember
Who you were
And who you claimed to be
With every word and every letter
From every language
I could not construct a single sentence
That could do you justice
That could express my disbelief
At your lack of judgment
The tongue in your fucking cheek
And you said the world has changed
But you haven't, but you just stayed the same
It's sad to say you became
Everything you loved to hate
It's sad to say you became
Everything you loved to hate
It's sad to say you became
Everything you loved to hate
Everything you loved to
If you had any substance left
I could look you in the eyes
Apologize
For the day when I snap
And I finally cut that
Tongue from your fucking cheek
Motherfucker
Your jealous mouth
May poison me
And your touch may
Burn my skin
Your jealous mouth
May poison me
And your touch may
Burn my skin
But the rotting wound
Where your heart was once
Will do more damage
Than I could ever give you
5. Hollywood
So Hollywood is the rotting heart of
A decaying nation
And this heart won't stop infecting
Until we burn it down
Silhouettes, streetlights
You're killing yourselves
Just distractions
You weak motherfuckers
You're living your life on your knees
You weak motherfuckers
Modern culture is disease
You ain't living
You're just killing
You ain't living
You're just consuming
So Hollywood is the rotting heart of a diseased population
And this heart won't stop beating
Until we burn it down
And this heart won't stop infecting
Until we burn it down
You weak motherfuckers
You're living your life on your knees
You weak motherfuckers
Modern culture is disease
You ain't living
You're just killing
You ain't living
You're just consuming
And this heart won't stop beating
Until we burn this to the ground
And this heart won't stop beating
Until we
Until we burn this city
To the ground
And this heart won't stop beating
Beating
Until we burn this city
To the ground
