Prelude 00:45

Premonitions 03:44
Searching for what I need Fulfill the void inside Nights alone with restless sleep This feeling amplifies Constant emotion in my mind I recognize you're out there Craving the warm embrace I feel you in my dreams Every day I wake to find You're nowhere to be seen Constant emotion in my mind I recognize you're out there These desires control me It's not easy But I still have hope That you will one day find me But for now I Do this on my own And I will see you in a dream

I told ya it was this way from the start When I saw you looking at me across that bar You smiled at me and asked your friend my name She said "My friend, his night is yours to take" You were all over me It was so dark I could barely see Your crimson lips, you twist your hips You tear at me with your fierce grip I'm feeling like I can't stop I need you right now all the way So please come now I can't stand it, all I need is Wicked Satisfaction I can't escape this pull I've spiraled in You entangle me I'm lost within your skin Every move I feel you make Is one more thing that I can't take The love I feel, I crave your taste It's one more thought I can't erase I'm feeling like I can't stop I need you right now all the way So please come now I can't stand it, all I need is Wicked Satisfaction

Duality 03:55
I give my all to you Do I really need you Am I feeling this way because You were my companion Before I was in dismay Yes I was so abandoned I already feel you slipping away But I'm powerless to deny Immobilized Anesthetized Nothing seems to satisfy Chaos is running through Slaughtering my thoughts of you The confusion in my head Has split me down the middle I just need a muse to come And break me from this riddle I already feel you slipping away But I'm powerless to deny Immobilized Anesthetized Nothing seems to satisfy

I just can't resist this chance Remove you from my mind The confines of my existence Mundane and crystallized The time is now, I see my break Release me from this life I crack the can, I taste that bliss Escape into this night Overindulging in this jubilee This is where I need to be Though I know it's treason I'm incapable of reason As I unleash the beast within Back into reality Enthralled by what I see Surrounded by strangers baring debauchery How could something be so wrong But feel so damn right I crack the can, I taste that bliss Return into this night Overindulging in this jubilee This is where I need to be Though I know it's treason I'm incapable of reason As I unleash the beast within

Devil Woman 03:50
I think she's got me going I'm under her control Giving into temptation Let's see how this unfolds I fall from grace My conscience escapes Darkness takes me from myself I cannot hide This surge of emotion I can't describe Makes me believe "she's a devil woman" The way she twists my beliefs inside Makes me believe "she's a devil woman" She haunts my every moment I beckon to her call There's no one else who matters I can't break through this wall My mind is on her My vision is blurred I'm addicted to the thought Of losing control This surge of emotion I can't describe Makes me believe "she's a devil woman" The way she twists my beliefs inside Makes me believe "she's a devil woman"

Betrayed by the vixen Thrown down and wrapped in chains Broke down and smited Torn up and drove insane My thoughts were twisted Bound up they seemed so nice It's time to face the truth Black devil rued my life Surrogate of my demise She'll never change They're all the same She's stuck in her own game Deceived and strained No more to gain Vacate this septic vein Lustful and blinded Staggered and mesmerized Unmatched persuasion She left me magnetized You thought you had me Trapped in your cruel device You'll beg forgiveness You'll beg for mercy twice Author of my erratum She'll never change They're all the same She's stuck in her own game Deceived and strained No more to gain Vacate this septic vein
8.
The Fall 06:50
I just can't believe that You burned me like a fire And you twisted my desire Concealing everything you felt inside Revealing what you've done When the time was right Taking the easy way out Conceited and centered on yourself I don't need you (x4) Bring to an end Refrain from this affair, and fall away Escaping you Uproot and disappear, and fall away Now I am glad that you are gone And now I feel it's time I must move on Complexity in what my heart tells me to do Simplicity for me that I don't need you I don't need you (x4) Bring to an end Refrain from this affair, and fall away Escaping you Uproot and disappear, and fall away
9.
Believe 04:13
Girl, you're the only one that I need Why was I so blind to see Girl, you're the only one for me You're touch would bring relief Oh, I beg and plead Tell me you'll forgive me Cuz' I can't stop thinking 'bout Everything we had was real And I shattered it all for not I still believe, down on my knees I still believe, you're the one for me What I did to you was wrong A misstep I won't repeat But with her I don't belong She was full of deceit Oh, just believe I was enticed by a temptress I was caught inside her vile haze Now I am trapped in this prison To live alone my final days I still believe, down on my knees I still believe, you're the one for me Immobilized, anesthetized You're the one that satisfies You're the one that satisfies I still believe, down on my knees I still believe, you're the one for me
10.
I don't know how We have traveled this far But we've ended here apart I've done my fair share Of bringing you down But I've left it all behind Don't shut me out Don't let me down I need to know now Time to figure out Clear all of your doubt I need to know now My mind wanders In and out of this place Imagine where we'd be If you were with me As it was before Come back through my door Don't shut me out Don't let me down I need to know now Time to figure out Clear all of your doubt I need to know now Far beyond my dreams You have taken me You have taken me Far beyond my dreams You have taken me To a world unseen

Unbreakable 03:45
Now the pieces have fallen And the cards have been played I have broken through my shallow masquerade Now I've come full circle And with you I will stay But this feeling was a heavy price to pay Through troubled times, I feel alive I've come so far to know what's right With this I rise, no more disguise I have become unbreakable Now that you're with me I'm not so empty The feelings are real this time around The journey beginning Old nightmare has faded I'll never leave this life again I can feel your body Passion consumes me Unleashing all our primal tendencies Well we're back in the game now There's no more disdain I can feel my devil coursing through my veins Through troubled times, I feel alive I've come so far to know what's right With this I rise, no more disguise I have become unbreakable Now that you're with me I'm not so empty The feelings are real this time around The journey beginning Old nightmare has faded I'll never leave this life again Unbreakable
