Four Walls

These four walls around me
Are all that I've known
Don't try to take them away
Content to exist here
All on my own
Nothing at all you can say
Solo - Chris
Trapped in this darkened room
This bed will be my tomb
Every night I die
Too tired to scream despite the pain
Beg for mercy but it's all in vain
Nothing left inside
From the cradle to the hearse
This life is bad and it gets worse
Become to jaded to try
I'm crawling into the abyss
Embracing death's cold fetid kiss
The grave's the best place to hide
Solo - Ben

Into the Cold

Are you listening? Can you hear me now?
Am I loud enough to cut through the crowd?
Are you listening? Don’t you understand?
Am I meant to let you just bite my hand?
Are you listening? I am not your pet
I am sick of you making me regret
Are you listening? Can you feel me now?
I am strong enough, you won’t break me down
What to do? What can I say?
What if I walk away?
Should I leave and disappear?
Should I stay and face the fear?
Is it true I’m on my own?
What if I walk alone?
I’m pushed away, you made me go
You forced me out
Into the cold
Solo - Chris
Are you listening? Don’t care what you’ve got
You’re a failure, something that I’m not
Are you listening? Now you’ve had your chance
I am tired of all your ignorance
Are you listening? Don’t trust what you see
I won’t be your pawn, truth is clear to me
Are you listening? Why do you pretend?
No it’s not alright, this is how it ends
What to do? What can I say?
What if I walk away?
Should I leave and disappear?
Should I stay and face the fear?
Is it true I’m on my own?
What if I walk alone?
I’m pushed away, you made me go
You forced me out
Into the cold
Solo - Ben
What to do? What can I say?
What if I walk away?
Should I leave and disappear?
Should I stay and face the fear?
Is it true I’m on my own?
What if I walk alone?
I’m pushed away, you made me go
You forced me out
Into the cold

Broken in Two
03:46

Remember the day I drove you away
Broke your heart after we fell apart
Pushed out, the times we’d shout
Faking a smile, been lost for a while
How you lied and then you tried
To stab me in the back the remorse you lack
Alone again, worthless life
Standing on the edge I can feel the knife
It’s down to you!
It’s lunacy how you could be
Just so blind, have you lost your mind?
Toxic, you make me sick
Face the truth, just accept we’re through
You and me, no destiny
You storm out of the room, will you meet your doom?
Life was hard, you trapped me in my shell
Couldn’t eat or sleep, just a living Hell
I’m moving on!
Broken in two
Broken in two
Broken in two
Broken in two
Solo - Ben
So set me free, don’t bother me
I’m not listening anymore
The damage is done, you thought you’d won
But now I shake you to the core
So leave me be, don’t you see?
I’m not chained to these walls
You had your claws around my throat
Thought that I’d put up with it all
But I’ve moved on...go to Hell!

Get Away

You’ve been living a delusion
Since we went our seperate ways
And if you think we’re getting back
Hear what I have to say
Let’s avoid all the confusion
Of this strained atmosphere
And now that I have made my mind up
Let me make this clear!
Move it! Move on! Get gone! Get away!
Move it! Move out! Stay out! stay away!
I don’t want to hear your voice again!
Will you ever shut up?
Happiness was an illusion
It was all just an act
The truth was so disappointing
But I won’t take it back
It was the only conclusion
That could truly satisfy
Now I feel a brand new freedom
That I won’t deny!
Move it! Move on! Get gone! Get away!
Move it! Move out! Stay out! stay away!
I don’t want to see your face again!
Hell no! I don’t want us to stay friends
Solo - Ben
Solo - Chris
Move it! Move on! Get gone! Get away!
Move it! Move out! Stay out! stay away!
I don’t want to hear your voice again!
Will you ever shut up?
