I can feel your cold arms Around my neck I can feel your cold breath Creeping upon my chest Its dragging me down An endless realm I’m losing my mind Its pulling me its pulling me Its pulling me apart No matter what I do I feel possessed No matter where I go I can feel the cold caress Cold fingers Around my neck I’m losing my mind Its pulling me its pulling me Its pulling me apart The cold caress The cold caress The cold caress

Through the tortured air The babble of despair No hope to be found No saving hand I walk through the gates I stumble through the land On the wings I sit Amongst the people of the damned It’s a tragic… tragedy Such a tragic… tragedy The pain is oh so real It’s taking its toll Death is a blessing To the tortured soul I sail through the sea A black sea of despair My spirit filled with gloom My spirit filled with doom It’s a tragic… tragedy Such a tragic… tragedy

5.	Crucifix 02:18	lyrics
anoint the lips with blood of the guilt open your eyes witness the filth you scream to god throwing a fit even though god doesn’t give a shit they act so proud Sunday church pride isn’t obvious little white lies they’re dead.. and its no surprise they’re dead.. dead in my eyes crucifix… crucify… crucifix now you die
6.	One by One 01:01	lyrics	buy track
I once knew a kid Sharp as a knife He didn’t have much money Or much a life He received the shit end of the stick Until one day..He was over it.. One by one, they all disappear
7.	You Are Not My Friend 03:19	lyrics
You are not my friend It’s painful to pretend Some kind of happiness I’ll gaze you from afar I’m standing in the dark Hiding within the leaves My maddened eyes They look your way I gather the words on what to say My maddened eyes They look your way I gather the words on what to say You are not my friend You're in trouble again You're in trouble again You're in trouble again
8.	Estate of Tears 04:33	lyrics
Sweet demise Oh sweet demise Shut the blinds Kill the lights Feeling pain To feel alive Now close those eyes Close those eyes Estate of Tears Sweet despair Oh sweet despair Your heart is flooded With pleasure and fear Behold your fate It’s drawing near Now close those eyes Close those eyes Estate of tears Now close those eyes Close those eyes Now close those eyes Close those eyes Estate of tears

Show me How to…. forget this pain Hate you It doesn’t… matter any anyway
12.	Don't Speak (I'd Rather Hear Nothing At All) 03:15	lyrics
24-7 days a week, They speak their lies and then they weep and whenever I try to pull away I can hear them calling begging me to stay Don’t speak! Another word and I would rather hear nothing at all Don’t speak! Another word and their lips speak nothing but lies 24-7 days a week I get the cold shoulder and then I get the heat but when I decided to cut the ties they come to me crying with their weary little eyes Don’t speak! Another word and I would rather hear nothing at all Don’t speak! Another word their lips speak nothing but lies It was a FU boo hoo and a goodbye
