Call an ambulance, tell 'em to get here fast. I'm holding an angel, and she's dying in my hands. The ring of sirens still pounding in my ears. The realization of my deepest fears. That's my life in there, and it could be yours, too. Don't tell me that you care, just tell me there's something you can do. I can feel the incompetence in the room. Death and mourning are the only things in bloom. I need to know how she's doing ;please tell me that she's doing well. I don't want to hear that you done all you can to help. That's my life in there ,and it could be yours too. Don't tell me that you care, just tell me there's something you can do. That's my life in there ,and it could be yours too. Don't tell me that you care, just tell me there's something you can do. The I.V.'s dripping, clock keeps ticking. And now it's getting too dark to see. She's in there bleeding, I'm out here seething. Please don't take her away from me. That's my life in there ,and it could be yours too. Don't tell me that you care, just tell me there's something you can do. That's my life in there ,and it could be yours too. Don't tell me that you care, just tell me there's something you can do.

Safe 03:53
Dredge my mind for some bleak excuse To take one more day of my own abuse Like I’m feeling trapped inside the well The most alone I’ve ever felt If I don’t know myself than why should anyone else? Chorus Help me pick up the pieces of my shattered life, I can’t do this alone And now I don’t know why, I dont know why Im here. My sanctuary is now just a cell Where I used to hide becomes my own hell Cant forget, I let her die, I never even said Goodbye felt so paralyzed, it left me asking why Help me pick up the pieces of my shattered life, I can’t do this alone And now I don’t know why, I dont know why Im here. Help me forget all the times we ever had, I cant do it alone I still dont know why, I dont know why Im here. So paint me in your misery I hollow shell of what I used to be I wish I see what you still see to mold a new reality they’ll never know just why I fall I feel like I’ve lost it all

I think I like this, finally getting my revenge Having a purpose with no means to an end If only I could find a grander use Some sort of way to mass produce And you know there is no cure I’m invincible, when I’m alone And I can let no one know This Sense of renewal can’t be wrong Because its been just far too long Now this is my drug, Its how I get through the days Seeing them suffer in too many ways Now that ive found a grander use Some sort of way to mass produce I know now there is no cure Don’t you want it more?

Can you feel it as it starts sinking in The high has never been better Can you feel it as the darkness starts to win This is why you need me tonight Suffocating, turning blue Plenty of air but none to breathe in Just as you notice, Something new Feeling your body become a coffin Can you hear it, its calling you inside to take another dose of pain Can you taste it, a part of you has died The part that sees reality I can save you I can break you down. I can fix this, I won’t turn around. I won’t break you, I won’t shut you down. Everything’s falling, everything’s coming unglued. Everyone’s counting, Everyone’s losing faith in you.

Choke 03:07
I mixed the diamond with the pearl and made it my own The unwilling and the unforgiven will know how it goes But lest we get ahead of ourselves but the numbers don’t lie How I need to see them choke. How I need to know when the needle breaks . We’ll get all of our results I finally feel like I have control and I just can’t wait To be the one who bargains with their souls and decides their fates How I need to see them choke How I need to see when the needle breaks we’ll get all of our results How I need to know they wont be waking up How I need to see them choke

Ive been put at the crossroad and Ive taken the lesser path My victims are the rabble of societys beautiful wrath With enough hate and absolution My minds lost all control Now I see the one solution is to take all of them whole So paint me in any color that you see fit Hate me, cause I can’t stop this I do it for one the one for her I am the Lab Coat Arbiter I can feel the power It surges through me like never before And now that ive released the demon I’m having trouble shutting the door Now I see the fear in your face and you don’t know what I have to do How did you end up in thie place? What kind of man would do this to you? So paint me in any color that you see fit Hate me, cause I can’t stop this I do it for one the one for her I am the Lab Coat Arbiter I’m going to fill the pieces in going to tell you all my secrets I still do it for one the one for her I am the Lab Coat Arbiter

Locked In 04:28
As I start to open my eyes I feel wave of terror, its my demise With so much wasted and so much left to serve My lost ambitions burn throughout every nerve Still waiting key in hand Awaiting the arrival of this hellish man Watch them come down one by one Dying and trying just to get out and run Now sweeping over a brutal rage Why am I still locked in side this cage This man’s delirious, playing the part of God He’s the devil incarnate, come out to play With no time to repent he’s here to take me away

The Chase 05:43
Blending in with the grass, hunting down what he needs to live Yellow, eyes that see no stone untunred everything explores Selecting his target, Waiting now he bides his time Sinking his teeth in , as claws tear the skin time slows down He’s been too free and I’m closer than I’ve ever been to catching him and ending everything that he has ever known so say good night Inspecting, surroundings walk with light feet, musnt catch the eye Living fearing, its all he knows is it safe to carry on finding hes cornered, waiting now he knows its time feeling the teeth sink in as time tears the skin and time slows down This isnt just another stalk and kill for me and he can see \that hes the one that ive been waiting for so long so say good bye Should cat still try to catch its prey even when the trap has broke its neck? Where do you go when theres nowhere to run Where do you hide when theres nowhere to find

The Promise 03:32
Does it hurt to know that youve been tied to the needle Forced to beg and steal just to get a glimpse of hope Both of you are welcome to get yourselves on track Consider me an angel born to help to bring you back. But first I gotta know Do you wanna be fixed? Do you wanna be saved? Do you wanna be pulled out from the misery that you made for yourselves? Do you wanna have hope? Do you wanna Find grace? If so then you can follow me and I’ll rewrite your destiny today How do you feel? Like the world has left you cold? Forced into an option that you simply cannot hold This surely’s no place, a place to call your home Living at the bottom of a spoon for way too long All I gotta know Do you wanna be fixed? Do you wanna be saved? Do you wanna be pulled out from the misery that you made for yourselves? Do you wanna have hope? Do you wanna Find grace? If so then you can follow me and I’ll rewrite your destiny today I can bring you back into the light I can save you from this endless night

Regret 04:33
Many thoughts drift to regrets they become my personal debts Can you feel it growing? Hearing but not knowing where to turn our lives will burn until there's no more left to fuel the flame Here we go again, theres ice in my veins I’m not helpless but I cant help to complain you left that chill crawling down my spine Im out of faith and out of time, tonight Out of the chaos I awaken Cant count the lives that we have taken and I feel it growing I see it now its showing thats its all wrong, everything is gone No matter how hard I push it on My throats still sore from screaming and I’m so sick of dreaming of what I had and what I’ll never have and how this is far to much to take
11.
I've been through far too much It's taken so many years To sit around and get judged by who they call my peers Waiting on a final verdict, these people aren’t like me They decide my fate, but they don't know tragedy So when the hammer hits and the decisions made When there's no turning back from the games I’ve played When the hammer hits and the spark is lit I will feel it, they will feel it Now I’ve been running from myself for far too long I can’t help but look back on the pain I've caused But i have one shot to make this right I’ll say when its time to go, when to turn out the lights They wanna take me alive? I want a way to survive
12.
Running Away 03:25
I could be taking you in right now I could be taking your name I should be taking you in right now The last step in a long game But your story keeps me from keeping you And the story makes no sense And your story I still can’t believe its true And your story brings me offense I realize you've been through quite a lot For this there’s no denial And starting over is never easy But it's better than a trial It’s why I’m letting you run don’t ever come back to this place They’ve seen your face, they know your name We both know this will never be the same
