we’re not joking now slam your body down, but when is it done? rip us all around the devil’s in ya… resistance is found hell turned back on ya slam your body down we’re not joking now you’re a plague of grandeur, oh greed how it consumes while your account grows, the world burns around you have you not considered that you need water too? trees and bees on their knees, ungrateful for all they do just know when they go, they’re taking you down too we’re not joking now slam your body down, but when is it done? rip us all around the devil’s in ya… resistance is found hell turned back on ya slam your body down we’re not joking now you think you’re so cunning you’re so clever you’re so cool you think consequences no longer apply to you what you call mercy can only be considered cruel don’t blame a savior for your behavior, he’d be so disappointed in you you burn, now it is our turn to build the world anew

Soft Bridge 08:05
he bad boys are on the run tonight scared and hurt us all for the last time you played our fears in a cruel divide in fractions, so our hands all were tied the feelings of a family are dying the closing of an empty room on all sides short breath eclipsing a world of crying this guilt, it could drown our love combined You are not alone But no one will save you Don't let them tie you down No one can tame you Don't hand over your reigns To those who restrain you Your choice is your voice So what does it say of you? I’m just a person trying to survive don’t hurt me I won’t hurt you I’m too tired to be mad this time all I have is room for hope to align trapped in endless suffering bodies tired, resolution thick just when I thought there was nothing believe in you made me believe that the good guy could still win You know it destroys you So how can you fake it? The battle consumes How can you break it Without taking yourself down You know your way back home Your choice is your voice we're pushing through your wall of lies and started tearing up the whole design in youth, when you learned, how, to hide you now know you were practicing for tonight and everyone can have their equal right and all the animals, can go, outside not looking for a neighbor to fight just focusing on combining all our might You are not alone But no one will save you Don't let them tie you down No one can tame you Don't hand over your reigns To those who restrain you Your choice is your voice So what does it say of you?

the tightrope on which you walk you know there's a better world on the other side but it's so hard not to look down when they scream you can't make it it's heavy and you need to search your soul for strength to break chains that bind you the balance it is not for weaker bones the fall is too painful what are you? protector, predator or prey? our bodies on which you walk needed to elevate you keep us in a great divide so our full weight can't crash down on you your greatest mistake was underestimating if you feel the need to take us down we won't make it easy what are you? protector, predator or prey?

waking up on a shell hanging out from yourself watching all of your bones mending on time alone you always had a collection of brittle arms and legs you never needed protection and everything would break waking up on the ground listening for a sound floating up like a ghost from the bed far below the crowds will keep you away such bloody awful things together pulling and yelling to tear apart your wings

Tigon 03:21
Tigon, en route Tigon, the brute Tigon, is you Tigon, is you Damn, you fool You grew grew grew, you’ve got the groove You’re on the prowl, they’re in it now They shouldn’t have done that to you Because you you’ve got the strength of two You knew knew knew, what you had to do Make the world safe for me and you It’s more more than they can ignore Tigon, en route Tigon, the brute Tigon, is you Tigon, is you Damn, you fool You talk so big, you hateful kid You bit off more than you could chew We’ll get you back, it’s what we do You cannot cage them in a zoo You knew they were better than you It made you feel two times too small Now more than hate will consume you
