Counterfeit

Embodiment of a sinner
Faker of the year I'm probably the winner
I have the perfect life in my perfect world
Heartless, selfish fucking swine
I don't trust a soul
I keep my circle small
Not sure what friends I have left
Fuck them all
We are the ignorant
Idolize the fake I am the counterfeit
Can I face my reality?
Simulated fantasy
Ride the high 'til our wits end
Fed up with playing pretend
Counterfeit 'til I'm dead
A disappointment to the innocent
Sociopath hellbent on malevolence
So vain sick with obsession
Can't get enough of my reflection
I don't trust a soul
I keep my circle small
Not sure what friends I have left
Fuck them all
We are the ignorant
Idolize the fake I am the counterfeit
Can I face my reality?
Simulated fantasy
Ride the high 'til our wits end
Fed up with playing pretend
Counterfeit 'til I'm dead
'Til I'm dead
'Til I'm dead
'Til I'm dead
'Til I'm dead
Fuck them all
We are the ignorant
Idolize the fake I am the counterfeit
Can I face my reality?
Simulated fantasy
Ride the high 'til our wits end
Fed up with playing pretend
Counterfeit 'til I'm dead
'Til I'm dead
Simulated fantasy
Ride the high 'til our wits end
Fed up with playing pretend
Counterfeit 'til I'm dead
Fuck them all

The Edge Pt. I
03:32
|

All I see is red
Fuck
I feel the flame ignite inside
But I'll try
To let the heat of the moment die
Internalize the pain again
Keep the beast at bay
Hope he fades away
My hold slips with every word you say
Exhausted
Hanging by a thread
Unstable
So close to the edge of uncertainty
Holding onto
A sliver of sanity
A shell of my former reality
I never thought it'd come to this
All your thankless words dig deep in my head
I gave you every chance
After all of this I've become
Exhausted
Hanging by a thread
Unstable
So close to the edge of uncertainty
No more authority
Infernal machine
My creator forgive me
There's nothing left to say
All I see is red
All I see is red
Forgive me
I've become the sum of all that you have done
Yet I'm still so
Exhausted
Hanging by a thread
Unstable
So close to the edge of uncertainty
No more authority
Infernal machine
My creator forgive me
Fuck
All I see is red

Stuck
03:43
|
|||
|
A victim of my own predisposition
The antidote to all of my afflictions
Left high and dry in a trench I dug myself
My little slice of hell
My little slice of hell
How can I break free?
I'm stuck between being found and finding me
So afraid I can't escape
In between being found and finding me
Finding me
These scars still burn despite what I have conquered
My urge to change is only getting stronger
Stagnant
Despite my best intentions
When will I learn my lesson?
I never learn my lesson
How can I break free?
I'm stuck between being found and finding me
So afraid I can't escape
In between being found and finding me
Was I doomed from the start?
Keep up the masquerade or watch it all fall apart?
What will be the catalyst?
A new beginning
The end to all of this
The end to all of this
How can I break free?
I'm stuck between being found and finding me
So afraid I can't escape
In between being found and finding me
Finding me

Lowlands

Isolated
The world I knew shows a different hue
Complicated
Everything I love slips away
So out of touch
Desperate and numb
The faceless enemy we can't escape
Sometimes loneliness makes the loudest noise
In a world at a standstill
Please stay away
Oh god I'm begging you even though I need you
Desperately
Give the devil his due
Know I'm thinking of you
I've been waiting to
Wake up from this dream
No matter how many times I close my eyes this is our reality
Sometimes loneliness makes the loudest noise
In a world at a standstill
Please stay away
Oh god I'm begging you even though I need you
Desperately
Give the devil his due
Know I'm thinking of you
How the hell was I supposed to know
A lapse in thought would be my doom
I see a world in ruins
I hope we make it through this
Ruins
You know I'm thinking of you
Ruins
You know I'm thinking of you
You know I'm thinking of you
Please stay away
Oh god I'm begging you even though I need you
Desperately
Give the devil his due
Know I'm thinking of you
How the hell was I supposed to know
A lapse in thought would be my doom
I see a world in ruins
But I can make it through this

Run
Expanding consciousness
Foreign lands
Complacent in all my movements
Intertwined
We collide
On a bed of broken bonds
Outside this place an ocean awaits for us to
Dive right in and
Look to the skies
The patterns in the stars align
Open your eyes
Beauty lies beyond our minds
The water mirrors our perception
Infinite bliss
I feel no pain
Creatures of the night
Glide across the sea while wolves howl at the lonely moon
As we stare the ocean embraces us as
We dive right in
Look to the skies
The patterns in the stars align
Open your eyes
Beauty lies beyond our minds
Breaking through
Leave behind all that you knew
Breaking through
Leave behind all that you knew
Breaking through
Breaking through

Self Resistance
03:45
|

|
Self resistance, of not to fall unto
Self-conscious about my life
I could tell just by the sound
Bow your head to the highest point
Shut your mouth
The words can’t be told and the truth
You’re so wrong
You're so wrong
To prove and
Justify yourself
The mass slowly rises
So dance to our means
Wide awake, confide in me
Self-conscious about my life
Bow your head to the highest
Bow your head to the highest point
All this compassion and faith
Do what I
Believe
It’s my
Hateful behavior
Because
Its
All that I promised
Hateful behavior
Because
It's
All that I promised
Rain lashes down (Rain lashes down)
Beneath my weak knees
You're so wrong
You're so wrong
To prove and
Justify yourself
Motherfucker

The Edge Pt. II
03:36
|

I've been drawing lines in the sand
Hoping you'd never cross them again
Over and done
I can't turn back
Just one step into your cyclone
Entices me to brave the storm
Will the story end?
Do we pretend we're wanderers again?
The siren song plays with my head
Over and over again
Your body calls to me
Crave you eternally
My siren, my temptress
You push me over the edge
You stole my will away
Destroyed the walls I built
My siren, my temptress
You push me over the edge
Your touch like a time machine
Bringing back such pleasant memories
I'm caught in between
My only desperate plea is this
Obliterate my name
I cease to exist
Our time is just a myth
The siren song plays with my head
Over and over again
Your body calls to me
Crave you eternally
My siren, my temptress
You push me over the edge
You stole my will away
Destroyed the walls I built
My siren, my temptress
You push me over the edge
Oh god I want to let go
Of this narcissistic hold
Oh god I want to let go
Of this narcissistic hold
Oh god
Why can't I let you go?
Oh god
Why can't I let you go?

Do it
Fuck
I've stopped giving a shit about your feelings
I won't hide myself
This is the real me
You can say what you want
You can follow the crowd
Don't expect me to be a disciple
Back it up
I won't apologize for taking back what's mine
I won't live this life
Naïve and blind
I won't waste my time
Living this life
Naïve and blind
Now you're wasting your time
Trying to convince me
I don't need your advice
Just fall in line
You'll be alright
I'll find my way
I'll be just fine
Bring it
I won't apologize for taking back what's mine
I won't live this life
Naïve and blind
I won't waste my time
Living this life
Naïve and blind
Mother fucker
Get up
I won't be your disciple

ALURA Las Vegas, Nevada
"Alura" derives from the 1940s comedy "She Wouldn't Say Yes." It was the name of a woman who was both a sociopath and a temptress who could not keep men from pursuing her. The group decided this name was perfect representation of the alluring sound of the music being created. ... more
