INTRO: Release, the beast, that lies, beneath! VERSE 1: Well these restrictions are, SET BY OURSELVES!/ WE'RE THE RESTRICTED AND THE RESTRICTORS!/ What good is help if we can't, help ourselves/ Doubtful minds act, as our constrictors/ The tentacles of restriction, they make her feeble/ Speaking your mind, is a necessary evil/ The only way to let up on these suction cups is through/ Freedom of speech and, love/ VERSE 2: RELEASE THE BEAST THAT LIES BENEATH/ SPEAK YOUR MIND TO, BE AT PEACE/ OR BE, BROUGHT DOWN TO YOUR KNEES/ YOU'RE YOUR OWN WORST ENEMY/ Shut the doubt and open your mouth/ Harness your passions, SCREAM AND SHOUT/ To release the beast/ Let the kraken, OUT/ VERSE 3: NOTHING WILL STAND IN MY WAY/ Release the beast that lies beneath/ Speak your mind to, be at peace/ Or be, brought down to your knees/ You're your own worst enemy/ YOUR OWN WORST ENEMY/ JUST LET YOURSELF, BE FREE/ LOOK DEEP BENEATH/ AND UNLEASH, THE, BEAST!/

Phobias 03:13
VERSE 1: YOU'RE AFRAID, BUT I DON'T SEE/ THE REASONS WHY YOU HAVE THIS FEAR OF ME/ DOES IT MEAN, THAT I'M BLIND?/ OR HAVE YOU ALWAYS LIED AND HELD, narrow mind/ I WAS WRONG! THOUGHT I'D HAVE YOU ALONG/ THROUGH IT ALL, BUT NOW YOU'RE GONE/ I THOUGHT WE SHARED THAT SAME DREAMS/ THAT YOU BELIEVED ME, NOT THE MAINSTREAM/ I WILL NOT BE HUMILIATED BY YOU/ But I'll give you a fear, and one that's sincere/ CHORUS: Clear your mind, clear your mind/ Just for a second, bring yourself back to the times/ When we were close, and you believed/ There was so much more to you and me/ Clear your mind, clear your mind/ Just for a moment, leave your phobias behind/ Open your eyes, I know that you'll find, we're all the same inside/ VERSE 2: All the times that we shared are nothing now compared to you, and how normal you, ARE/ I WISH I WAS NORMAL, JUST LIKE YOU/ IS IT TRUE, NOT BEING LIKE YOU, IS A SIN, A VIOLATION WITHIN?/ IS IT TRUE, I MUST BE LIKE YOU, JUST TO LIVE, THE LIFE THAT I LIVE?/ CHORUS: Clear your mind, clear your mind/ Just for a second, bring yourself back to the times/ When we were close, and you believed/ There was so much more to you and me/ Clear your mind, clear your mind/ Just for a moment, leave your phobias behind/ Open your eyes, I know that you'll find, we're all the same inside/ VERSE 3: I DIDN'T CHOOSE TO/ GUIDE THIS BOAT OF VIRTUE/ THROUGH THE DARKEST OF DAYS/ BUT THAT'S OKAY/ I'M MAKING MY OWN WAY/ AGAINST THESE VIOLENT WAVES/ OUTRO: I'M SO ASHAMED, SO ASHAMED OF THE PERSON YOU ARE/ IT'S INSANE!/ I'M SO ASHAMED, SO ASHAMED/ DO YOU FEEL, THE SAME?/ We are all equal, so clear your mind/ We're all the same inside/

INTRO: My skin, has yet to taste December's embrace/ I yearn for the frosts fresh flakes, but is this all going to waste without a taste, of its greatness/ How can such a thought be thought, with a feeling that's shameless?/ VERSE 1: This gift though ostentatious has nothing more to show/ This I know but I still take the hunt by force, I follow your road with no remorse/ This isn't the right course, but it's the one that I want to feel/ Promise me that we'll feel again/ Promise me that we'll still be friends/ CHORUS: We complicate our lives when everything is just right/ We know this to be true, yet we do, what we do/ We complicate our lives when everything is just right/ We know this to be true, yet we do what we do and we pay the price/ VERSE 2: I fall right back and then, i'm in fall, once again/ But the beauty of it all is that the leaves are always, changing/ I FALL RIGHT BACK AND THEN/ I'M IN FALL, ONCE AGAIN/ CHORUS: We complicate our lives when everything is just right/ We know this to be true, yet we do, what we do/ We complicate our lives when everything is just right/ We know this to be true, yet we do what we do and we pay the price/ VERSE 3: I simply want to be, wherever this path leads/ I know what I'm about to do, but still I follow through/ And I, simply want to be, wherever this path leads/ I know what it'll put me through, but as long as it's with you, i'll FREEZE/ YOUR ICE COLD HEART IS TO BE MY TOMB/ MY TOMB IS TO BE WITH YOU/ I'LL FREEZE! With, you/ YOUR HEART IS TO BE MY TOMB/ MY TOMB, MY TOMB IS WITH YOU/
4.
VERSE 1: As they storm the castle/ I manage to bide/ Some time, to find, a place to hide/ Before they, SKIN ME ALIVE/ Cause there's no stopping them/ they'll murder all my men/ Just to take me, down/ CHORUS: When the pieces have fallen, and everything is gone/ I will still be, standing alone/ When the pieces have fallen, and everything is done/ I'll be with you, or on my own/ VERSE 2: I CAN TAKE ANY STEP I WANT/ BUT ONLY ONE STEP AT A TIME/ IS EVERY STEP I TAKE EVEN WORTH THE TIME?/ I'M A MASTER OF THE BOARD/ SO EVERYONE WANTS MY HEAD/ BUT THEY DON'T KNOW/ WHAT'S IN STORE, FOR, THEM/ This checkered ground will hold me down on through this ride/ They'll hunt me down, to steal my crown, but i'm still alive/ CHORUS: When the pieces have fallen, and everything is gone/ I will still be, standing alone/ When the pieces have fallen, and everything is done/ I'll be with you, or on my own/ VERSE 3: I've dodged so many rooks/ I've lost so many pawns/ Took down so many knights but now/ all my bishops are gone/ This checkered ground will hold me down on through this ride/ They'll hunt me down, to steal my crown, but i'm still alive/ OUTRO: I WONT GIVE UP, I WONT GIVE IN/ UNTIL WHAT I NEED TO DO, IS DONE AND THROUGH/ I wont give up, I wont give in/ until what I need to do, is done and through/

Yamada 03:39
INTRO: YEAAAH VERSE 1: As I remember, this foul taste/ I realize that I once, tasted this tidal wave/ Now a new knave takes the wild stage/ And begins, to build, the walls of his grave/ The snail only knows his shell/ Its shell becomes a part of himself/ It was once his shelter but now it's his, living hell/ WE ONLY KNOW WHAT WE KNOW, AND NOTHING MORE CHORUS: Doomed to repeat himself time makes its stay/ It never leaves, but it never even came/ Turning yesterday, into present day/ we're all doomed to make, the same mistakes/ VERSE 2: Oh, through the fallacies of a broken daughter! From the very first dip of her poisoned lips/ She rippled these waters black/ And infected, everything sectioned/ Within it's path, just to stab them in their backs/ He could never run away from the plague/ that she has left in her wake/ He was bound to failure, bound to fail her/ Bound to the same mistakes/ WE ONLY KNOW WHAT WE KNOW AND NOTHING MORE! CHORUS: Doomed to repeat himself time makes its stay/ It never leaves, but it never even came/ Turning yesterday, into present day/ we're all doomed to make, the same mistakes/ BRIDGE: YAMADA, YAMADA, YEAH! CHORUS: Doomed to repeat himself time makes its stay/ It never leaves, but it never even came/ Turning yesterday, into present day/ we're all doomed to make, the same mistakes/ Day, Yamada, Yamada
