welcome to the theatre that has no stage should I have lied about my age wasted youth, here to win a father's pride careful, you might lose an eye with every ounce of violent venom running through my veins I will keep my fear held deep and boast until the grave I may just be a braggart, or a crook inspiration only works if they look hide away in dreams of being first round through the breech I am a one man siege spike the guns, the weary and the worn will rest for years there's no cure for ringing ears with every ounce of violent venom running through my veins I will keep my fear held deep and boast until the grave I may just be a braggart, or a crook inspiration only works if they look weave yourself a tapestry to show how all that's yours to do is mine take up your fallen brother's boots, they will serve you just fine use your head,butt not like that interject your skull with a sickening crack with every ounce of violent venom running through my veins I will keep my fear held deep and boast until the grave I may just be a braggart, or a crook inspiration only works if they look

Resilient 06:10
third set of souls worn through this winter can't see my feet for the blisters is there no more that I can offer for in this offal I am mired all for what all for what I am naught but a pair of boots and a weapon I hold like a lover if you will stay with me then you will be my brother another fortnight at attention leaving every wound and bruise unmentioned by now I've soaked right through the bandage and I am not sure how much longer I can manage now let me out I am naught but a pair of boots and a weapon I hold like a lover if you will stay with me then you, you will be my brother I will not have been in vain I will not be silenced by my pain I will not have been in vain I will not be silenced by my pain

I can still feel where your hand once alighted on my wrist and I am still healed by every constellation drawn with every kiss catching sight or sound or smell or melody in everything I write of everything you taught me all this rain still hasn't cleaned you off this street and all this pain will never set anyone free I have been left with cracks on every bone inside of me but I don't need your song to sleep I concede that there is still a tether not a flame, just a feather I will not plead, already did by pen and ink we've had our time to think gather fiends we let them in between our teeth it's obscene I let you be my enemy all this rain still hasn't cleaned you off this street and all this pain will never set anyone free I have been left with cracks on every bone inside of me but I don't need your help

Rebuild 04:28
if you permit, we'll clear the sirens from your mind if you allow, we'll tell you of the solace you can find tempting as it is to hide your injuries away do not conceal just how low you've been laid have you been split into your disparate parts have you been screwed directly through all of your harts even as the air above your head fills with shrapnel driving you into the ground we will rebuild ourselves we will rebuild ourselves and we will rebuild this town will you pitch in to clear the rubble from the streets and get your neighbors back up onto their feet we don't wish for death, to be buried for good to be honest I can see why you would now you persist in spite of peril fore and aft the life that you lead is the legend you craft even though supplies are low and chaos surrounds you grinding your sanity down we will rebuild ourselves we will rebuild ourselves and we will rebuild this town
