Paralyzed lyrics - As I Lay Dying

What is certain I have ignored

I have spent most of my life

Trying to complicate everything that I believe

So that while paralyzed

In thought I will always have an alibi

Just another excuse (just another excuse)

To hesitate (to hesitate)

Delaying true progress with passivity

The answers that I've found

Are all the same

They uncover questions

That still remain

The answers that I've found

Are all the same

They uncover questions

That still remain

What is certain I have ignored

And what I know is simple

If I am honest with myself

My soul is broken yet easily fixed

And what I know is simple

I must die if I truly want to live

The answers that I've found

Are all the same

They uncover questions

That still remain

The answers that I've found

Are all the same

They uncover questions

That still remain

The greatest of us have become the least

I must be reborn to revive a heart that hardly beats

Keeping alive this hollow frame

I must be reborn

I must be reborn

From Shapeless To Breakable lyrics - As I lay dying

If I have been kept alive for one reason,

It's to declare that apart from you I can do nothing

Though discouraged by my failure

I remember who I used to be

Like a murderer transformed into a pretty thief

I have so far, so far left to go

From shapeless to breakable I have involved

My transgressions are evident to all who know me

Like porcelain carried through a Downtown street

At any moment I might break

From shapeless to breakable I have involved

I could say a thousand more apologies

But to prove that I have truly changed

Only time will tell.

From shapeless to breakable I have involved

Moving Forward lyrics - As I Lay Dying

We're born helpless but guided by humanity

What was compassion

Soon controls the way we think

Familiarity has left me desensitized

And inanity keeps deception disguised

We are lost but keep moving forward

To find the truth we must turn around

History reveals an inviting sense of compromise

Our customs destroyed what was once unique

Traditions started with useful intention

Now subjugate those too numb to question

We are lost but keep moving forward

To find the truth we must turn around

I desire to wake from this sedation and begin to separate

The truth from tradition

We are lost but keep moving forward

To find the truth we must turn around

War Ensemble lyrics - As i lay dying

(originally by Slayer)

Propaganda death ensemble

Burial to be

Corpses rotting through the night

In blood laced misery

Scorched earth the policy

The reason for the siege

The pendulum it shaves the blade

The strafing air blood raid

Infiltration push reserves

Encircle the front lines

Supreme art of strategy

Playing on the minds

Bombard till submission

Take all to their graves

Indication of triumph

The number that are dead

Sport the war, war support

The sport is war, total war

When victory's really massacre

The final swing is not a drill

It's how many people I can kill

Sport the war, war support

The sport is war, total war

When victory's really survival

The final swing is not a drill

It's how many people I can kill

Be dead friend from above

When darkness falls

Descend into my sights

Your fallen walls

Spearhead break through the lines

Flanked all around

Soldiers of attraction

Forward their ground

Regime prophetic age

Old in its time

Flowing veins run on through

Deep in the Rhine

Center of the web

All battles scored

What is our war crimes

(Era forever more...war)

Propaganda war ensemble

Burial to be

Bones shining in the night

In blood laced misery

Campaign of elimination

Twisted psychology

When victory is to survive

And death is defeat

Sport the war, war support

The sport is war, total war

When the end is a slaughter

The final swing is not a drill

It's how many people I can kill

Hellion lyrics - As i lay dying

Hell hound!

Hot leather on your legs,

They're smoking power kegs

Your ranting on means

It's hell bound!

And you're the one they claim

Is going down in flames

You're acting in Hades grave

Hellion! The devil's hellion in town

Hellion! We'll never have to die!

Well, child,

You're sweating and you're stoned

They've got to knock you down

Makes you crazy all night!

You're in never ending pain

And drink the devil's rain

You're screaming out your name

Hellion! The devil's hellion in town

Hellion! We'll never have to die!

The Gods you worship are steel

At the altar of rock and roll

You kneel,

A slave who forever rocks

His tail in the devil's locks

A slave like the bloody exile

Hellion! The devil's hellion in town

Hellion! We'll never have to die!

Electric Eye lyrics - As i lay dying

(originally by Judas Priest)

Up here in space

I'm looking down on you.

My lasers trace

Everything you do.

You think you've private lives

Think nothing of the kind.

There is no true escape

I'm watching all the time.

I'm made of metal

My circuits gleam.

I am perpetual

I keep the country clean.

I'm elected electric spy

I protected electric eye.

Always in focus

You can't feel my stare.

I zoom into you

You don't know I'm there.

I take a pride in probing all your secret moves

My tearless retina takes pictures that can prove.

Electric eye, in the sky

Feel my stare, always there

's nothing you can do about it.

Develop and expose

I feed upon your every thought

And so my power grows.

Protected. Detective. Electric eye.

Coffee Mug lyrics - As i lay dying

Mug mug mug

Coffee mug

Gonna clear away the haze

Liquid proof

That i can win this race

Coffee mug

The grip that keeps me tall

My inter-link

Keeps me questing all

I don't need no booze or drugs

I just chug-a-lug-o my coffee mug

And i don't need your kiss and hug

I just chug-a-lug-o my coffee mug

They haven't banned

My liquid drug of choice

There's too many hooked

And they've got too much voice

So for the moment

We're all pretty good to go

With 98 cups

With 98 more to go

I don't need no booze or drugs

I just chug-a-lug-o my coffee mug

And i don't need your kiss and hug

I just chug-a-lug-o my coffee mug

Here a bean, there a bean

Everywhere a mean mean

Bean chug - a - lug - o - my

Coffee - mug, mug, mug, mug

Beneath The Encasing Of Ashes (Re-Recorded Medley) lyrics - As i lay dying

Emptiness running through me

Taking all that I am

Reach inside of me

Far beneath the encasing of ashes

Bleeding red

Still showing signs of life

Leaving me this blinding mask

Grasping for the wind

Everything I've done

Everything I've gained

It all means nothing

A mere breath has passed away

Sadness I embrace

Left with empty promises

Spent of all my strength

Relying on Yours

I look at myself and see the scars

That are brought to me by this life

Then I ask myself

Is this all that this world has to give

Through this pain I refine

Tearing me from within

Screaming to be released but held fast by Your love

I have become a sacrifice

I have become a sacrifice (A sacrifice)

In need of you (In need of you)

In need of you

The Blinding Of False Light (Innerpartysystem Remix) lyrics - As i lay dying

I see now, I see through the veil of expectation.

I see now, I see that conformity is betrayal.

Betrayal of those who are forgotten, yet vision alone furthers our blame.

Unless followed by transformation, it is pointless to be given sight.

Without the hope of our reaction, we overlook the purpose of our eyes.

Now is our chance to breathe without tyranny, released from the blinding of false light.

(blinding of false light)

Now is our chance to breathe without tyranny. In weakness we are freed.

I see now, I see that conformity is betrayal.

With empty eyes I've looked ahead (ahead), with clarity I now look back.

Now is our chance to breathe without tyranny, released from the blinding of false light.

(blinding of false light).

Now is our chance (our chance) to breathe without, without tyranny.

In weakness we are freed. Yeah!

I admit my failure. Opacity has dulled my senses.

Conformity (conformity) controlled by lifeless vices. Oh! Yeah!

Covetousness (covetousness) disguised as ambition.

But now it ends. [x4]

Not with defeat but determination. We are freed. Yeah!

Now is our chance to breathe without tyranny, released from the blinding of false (false) light (light).

Now is our chance. [x2]

In weakness we are freed.
