"Footprints"
I'm still the person I was
When I used to think I wasn't enough
Till you took me in I'd never been so happy to be wrong
I finally feel I'm where I belong
My eyes are open
But losing focus
These words unspoken
Would wring my broken heart out
You left your mark on me like footprints in the snow
Would you promise me you'll never let me go
If we're pulled apart by horses
And my body's given up
I'll die before the end of our love
Before the end of our love
After the flight
I'm asleep beneath a blanket of white
Then you cross my mind like power lines exploding in a storm
Just the thought of you is keeping me warm
And it's only sleeping
Don't waste your weeping
On thoughts that creep in
And call your bleeding heart out
You left your mark on me like footprints in the snow
Would you promise me you'll never let me go
If we're pulled apart by horses
And my body's given up
I'll die before the end of our love
Before the end of our love
You left your mark on me like footprints in the snow
Would you promise me you'll never let me go
If we're pulled apart by horses
And my body's given up
I'll die before the end of our love
Before the end of our love

Once considered the behavior of schizophrenic psychopaths, the tables are now turning to being the enlightened saviors. Goodness this world is nothing but a game of ping pong. Run away, but we're running in circles. Run away, run away, run away.
Used in tandem with this article, the data idols are used to fit whatever agenda or end point desired. Our minds do this with our own internal dialogue as well. Enter quantum computing and the infinite multi-verse.

“The future is going to be full of things you can’t make sense of.”
“That’s the point of alchemy, there’s no methodological way of proving what’s right or wrong. That’s kind of the confusing part too.”
“You have to respect the enemy and understand precisely who he is before you can even think about denying him. If you’ve made him some figment of your imagination, which is precisely how people think of the devil, then you’ve done the same thing for God.”
“There is no such thing as evil without good and there is no such thing as good without evil. Just as the same as two sides of the elements make up One. So understand that being a Son of God represents the other side of Him.”
“I’m dead to this world and died to it long ago.”
“No one is righteous. No, not one.”

[Intro]
Change my attempt, good intentions
[Verse 1]
Crouched over, you were not there, living in fear
But signs were not really that scarce, obvious tears
But I will not hide you through this, I want you to help them
Please see the bleeding heart perched on my shirt
Die, withdraw, hide in cold sweat, quivering lips
Ignore remorse, naming a kid, living wasteland
This time you've tried all that you can, turning you red
[Chorus]
Change my attempt, good intentions
Should I? Could I?
Here we are with your obsession
Should I? Could I?
[Verse 2]
Crowned, hopeless, the article read, "living wasteland"
This time you've tried all that you can, turning you red
But I will not hide you through this, I want you to help
[Chorus]
Change my attempt, good intentions
Should I? Could I?
Here we are with your obsession
Should I? Could I?
[Bridge]
Heave the silver, hollow sliver
Piercing through another victim
Turn and tremble, be judgmental
Ignorant to all the symbols
Blind the face with beauty paste
Eventually, you'll one day know
[Chorus]
Change my attempt, good intentions
Limbs tied, skin tight
Self inflicted his perdition
Should I? Could I?
Change my attempt, good intentions
Should I? Could I?

[Verse 1]
What have I done?
Where have I come from?
When I burnt the backs
With the sun through a glass
Did I seal the loss
That's become me?
Feeling undone
What have I become?
When I turned my back on you
I turned my back on myself
And became this machine
Thoughtlessness
Selfishness
Hopelessness
Arrogant
[Chorus 1]
I feel it on the inside
Twisting and contorting
Memory has shaped me once again
Still feel you on the inside
Biting through and stinging
Will I ever forget to remember?
[Verse 2]
Shadows in the sun
Filter through us
Still wrestle the demons
That arrested me as a child
Confession rejected
We grow up
To give up
People step on the cracks
For wounds owed paid back
Through the words of surrender
Emptiness
Loneliness
Listlessness
Worthless
[Chorus 2]
I feel it on the inside
Twisting and contorting
Memory has shaped me once again
Still feel you on the inside
Biting through and stinging
Will I ever forget to remember?
[Interlude]
Can you save me?
From myself
From these memories
Can you save me?
From myself
From these memories
[Bridge]
Surrender
To the shadows
Haunting inside
Bleed through you
Surrender to the secrets...inside
Lies within you
[Chorus 3]
I feel it on the inside
Twisting and contorting
Memory has shaped me once again
Still feel you on the inside
Biting through and stinging
Will I ever forget to remember?
Can't feel you on the inside
Set down the bag and left it
Lost memory has left me
One again
Open up the inside
Admission for the cleansing
Now that I've forgotten to remember
[Outro]
Surrender
To the shadows
Haunting inside
Bleed through you

Quiet the drone in the distance approaches
We hide, and hope they pass us by
Waiting in silence, praying they don't find us
And maybe they’ll spare us our lives
Just maybe they'll spare us our lives
Desolate village of sorrow and anguish
I stare upon what once was home
Explosions and flashes leave embers and ashes
And now I've got nowhere to go
And now we’ve got nowhere to go
Now, as the fire rains down from the sky
I see the love disappear from her eyes
I've seen the hearts of our people all change like the wind
A helping hand, I cannot find
Hold on
We'll find a place to call our home
Nevermore, will you cry
Together we'll live on alone
Life or death
We will not live forever
Or did you forget
Selflessness bereft You looked the other way
As we are left for dead
Gone are the tears of the innocent child
Each day you're cursed watching her fading smile
You must be brave little sister
I'll swallow my pride, whatever it takes to survive
Be strong
The fireflies will light the way
Never stop, carry on
You are the life in me today
Life or death
We will not live forever
Or did you forget
Selflessness bereft You looked the other way
As we are left for dead
As the flame begins
The blackened rain turns out a beautiful display of hatred
Nothing left
Beneath the flames of where my love was laid to rest
Sleep, little one all your nightmares are gone
Rest in peace, and be free of your pain
For you I will fight one more day
Echoes of your voice repeatedly tormenting
Reminds me of my mistakes
How do I live with myself
My conscious says I sent you to an early grave
Have I sent you to an early grave
(X2)
Mother and father
Will dry your eyes
Now that you sleep with
The fireflies
[Verse 1]
Like a shotgun in a fist fight
Like a murder in the daylight
I'm the poison in the lead pipes
Open me up and watch the dogs fight, dogs fight
My angel's in a headlock
And I'm dropping bombs from the rooftops
I ain't waiting on the world to wake up
Oh, you never need luck when you don't stop, don't stop
[Pre-Chorus]
My new year's resolution, yeah
To choke out my illusions, yeah
To cut through the confusion, yeah
Oh, keep on digging deep, keep digging deep
Keep digging deep, we keep digging
[Chorus]
We don't stop, we don't stop
Yeah, we don't stop
Oh, keep on digging deep, keep digging deep
Keep digging
[Verse 2]
The ball drops
Start ticking to a new clock
Get back up and take another shot
Oh, pour the hard liquor and get up, get up, oh yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
My new year's resolution, yeah
Is to choke out my illusions, yeah
And cut through the confusion, yeah
Oh, keep on digging deep, keep digging deep
Keep digging deep, keep digging
[Bridge]
Giving in to trainwreck
Lets face it
I never back down we can take that
When it piles up I get riled up
I'm never going to quit I rise up
'Cause it's Jonestown Straight beat down
I can't stop, can't burn out
So please believe when I own the scene
Imma call you out if you don't believe
I got
Five senses and a brain to move me
Five ways that they can never use me
I got the fire
I got control
I got the fire
I got control
Five senses and a brain to move me
Five senses and a brain to move me
Five senses and a brain to move me
[Pre-Chorus]
My new year's resolution, yeah
To choke out my illusions, yeah
To cut through the confusion, yeah
Oh, keep on digging deep, we keep digging deep
We keep digging deep, we keep digging
We keep digging, we keep digging
We keep digging, we keep digging
We keep digging, we keep digging
[Chorus]
Yeah, we don't stop, we don't stop
Yeah, we don't stop
Oh, keep on digging deep, keep digging deep
Oh, keep on digging deep, keep digging deep
Oh, digging
[Breakdown]
I got the fire
I got the soul
I got the fire
I got the soul
I got the fire
I got the soul
I got the fire
I got the hahaha yeah
[Intro]
Okay
[Verse 1]
I'm feeling the way that I'm feeling myself
Fuck everyone else
Gotta remember that nobody is better than anyone else, here
(Do you need some time to think it over?)
Look what they do to you
Look what they do to me
Must be joking if you think that either one is free, here
[Chorus 1]
Get up off your knees, girl
Stand face to face with your God
And find out what you are
(Hello, my name is human)
Hello, my name is human
And I came down from the stars
(Hello, my name is human)
[Verse 2]
I'm ready for love, and I'm ready for war
But I'm ready for more
I know that nobody's ever been this fucking ready before, hey
(Do you need some time to think it over?)
So figure it out, or don't figure it out
I figured it out
The bigger the river (the bigger the river)
The bigger the drought (the bigger the drought)
[Chorus 1]
Get up off your knees, boy
Stand face to face with your God
And find out what you are
(Hello, my name is human)
Hello, my name is human
And I came down from the stars
(Hello, my name is human)
[Bridge]
Fire world, I love you
Fireworld
[Chorus 2]
I'm up off my knees, girl
I'm face to face with myself
And I know who I am
(Hello, my name is human)
I stole my power from the sun
I'm more than just a man
(No longer disillusioned)
[Outro]
(I'm not asking questions)
('Cause questions have answers)
(And I don't want answers)
I came down from the stars (so I'll take my chances)
(And what are the chances)
(That I could advance)
(On my own circumstances)
(Said "what are the chances?")
Hello, my name is human (And what are the chances?)
(I don't want your answers)
(I'm not asking questions)
(So you keep your answers)
And I know who I am (So you keep your answers)
(I'm not asking questions)
(I'm taking my chances)
[Verse 1]
Here's to bein' human
All the pain and sufferin'
There's beauty in the bleedin'
At least you feel somethin'
I wish I knew what it was like
To care enough to carry on
I wish I knew what it was like
To find a place where I belong
[Chorus]
But I am machine, I never sleep
I keep my eyes wide open
I am machine, a part of me
Wishes I could just feel somethin'
I am machine, I never sleep
Until I fix what's broken
I am machine, a part of me
Wishes I could just feel somethin'
[Verse 2]
Here's to bein' human
Takin' it for granted
The highs and lows of livin'
To getting second chances
I wish I knew what it was like
To care about what's right or wrong
I wish someone could help me find
Find a place where I belong
[Chorus]
But I am machine, I never sleep
I keep my eyes wide open
I am machine, a part of me
Wishes I could just feel somethin'
I am machine, I never sleep
Until I fix what's broken
I am machine, a part of me
Wishes I could just feel somethin'
[Bridge]
It wasn't supposed to be this way
We were meant to feel the pain
I don't like what I am becoming
Wish I could just feel something
[Chorus]
I am machine, I never sleep
I keep my eyes wide open
I am machine, a part of me
Wishes I could just feel somethin'
I am machine, I never sleep
Until I fix what's broken
I am machine, a part of me
Wishes I could just feel somethin'
[Verse 1]
I can't escape this hell
So many times I've tried
But I’m still caged inside
[Pre-Chorus]
Somebody get me through this nightmare
I can’t control myself
[Chorus]
So what if you can see the darkest side of me?
No one will ever change this animal I have become
Help me believe it’s not the real me
Somebody help me tame this animal
(This animal)
(This animal)
[Verse 2]
I can’t escape myself
(I can’t escape myself)
So many times I’ve lied
(So many times I’ve lied)
But there’s still rage inside
[Pre-Chorus]
Somebody get me through this nightmare
I can’t control myself
[Chorus]
So what if you can see the darkest side of me?
No one will ever change this animal I have become
Help me believe it’s not the real me
Somebody help me tame this animal I have become
Help me believe it’s not the real me
Somebody help me tame this animal
[Bridge]
Somebody help me through this nightmare
I can’t control myself
Somebody wake me from this nightmare
I can’t escape this hell
[Refrain]
This animal
This animal
This animal
This animal
This animal
This animal
This animal
[Chorus]
So what if you can see the darkest side of me?
No one will ever change this animal I have become
Help me believe it’s not the real me
Somebody help me tame this animal I have become
Help me believe it’s not the real me
Somebody help me tame this animal
[Outro]
This animal I have become

[Verse 1]
Another day in this carnival of souls
Another night settles in as quickly as it goes
The memories of shadows, ink on the page
And I can't seem to find my way home
[Chorus]
And it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
Your heaven's trying everything to keep me out
[Verse 2]
All the places I've been and things I've seen
A million stories that made up a million shattered dreams
The faces of people I'll never see again
And I can't seem to find my way home
[Chorus]
'Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
To break me down
'Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
To keep me out
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
'Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
To break me down
'Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
To break me down
[Outro]
To break me down
To break me down
To break me down, oh
Your heaven's trying everything
Your heaven's trying everything
To break me down
[Verse 1: Oli Sykes]
I've got a fever, don't breathe on me
I'm a believer in nobody
Won't let me leave 'cause I've seen something
Hope I don't sneeze, I don't *sneeze*
Really we just need to fear something
Only pretending to feel something
I know you're dying to run
I wanna turn you around
[Pre-Chorus: Alissa Salls]
Please remain calm
The end has arrived
We cannot save you
Enjoy the ride
This is the moment
You've been waiting for
Don't call it a warning
This is a war
[Chorus: Oli Sykes]
It's the Parasite Eve
Got a feeling in your stomach 'cause you know that it's coming for ya
Leave your flowers and grieve
Don't forget what they told ya, ayy, ayy
When we forget the infection
Will we remember the lesson?
If the suspense doesn't kill you
Something else will, ayy, ayy
Move
[Verse 2: Oli Sykes]
I heard they need better signal
Put chip and pins in the needles
Quarantine all of those secrets
In that black hole you call a brain before it's too late
Really we just wanna scream something
Only pretend to believe something
I know you're baying for blood
I wanna turn you around (Hey)
[Pre-Chorus: Alissa Salls with Oli Sykes]
Please remain calm (Hey)
The end has arrived (Hey)
We cannot save you (Hey)
Enjoy the ride (Hey)
This is the moment (Hey)
You've been waiting for (Hey)
Don't call it a warning
This is a war
[Chorus: Oli Sykes]
It's the Parasite Eve
Got a feeling in your stomach 'cause you know that it's coming for ya
Leave your flowers and grieve
Don't forget what they told ya, ayy, ayy
When we forget the infection
Will we remember the lesson?
If the suspense doesn't kill you
Something else will, ayy, ayy
It's the Parasite Eve (It's the Parasite Eve)
Got a feeling in your stomach 'cause you know that it's coming for ya
Leave your flowers and grieve
Don't forget what they told ya, ayy, ayy
When we forget the infection
Will we remember the lesson?
If the suspense doesn't kill you
Something else will
[Breakdown: Oli Sykes]
You can board up your windows
You can lock up your doors, yeah
But you can't keep washing your hands
Of this shit anymore
When all the king's sources and all the king's friends
Don't know their arses from their pathogens
When life is a prison and death is the door
This ain't a warning
This is a war, war
This is a war, ayy, ayy, oh, oh
[Chorus: Oli Sykes]
It's the Parasite Eve
Got a feeling in your stomach 'cause you know that it's coming for ya
Leave your flowers and grieve
Don't forget what they told ya, ayy, ayy
When we forget the infection
Will we remember the lesson?
If the suspense doesn't kill you
Something else will, ayy, ayy
[Post-Chorus: Oli Sykes]
It's the Parasite Eve (It's the Parasite Eve), ayy, ayy
It's the Parasite Eve, ayy, ayy
It's the Parasite Eve (Parasite Eve), ayy, ayy
Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy
[Outro: Alissa Salls]
We cannot save you
We cannot save you
We cannot save you
We cannot save you
We cannot save you
[Verse 1]
I'm writing this in case I'm gone tomorrow
I'm writing this in case I've moved along
There's something that I hope you'll remember
That life is not a game, it's a song
[Pre-Chorus]
So take the best parts of me
Locked away without the keys
And know that I'm forever by your side
[Chorus]
When the lights go down
Know that I am never far away
When the sun burns out
I'll be waiting on the brighter side of grey
[Verse 2]
If you're reading this, I know you're feeling sorrow
If you're hearing this, I know you're probably scared
Just know that all the things you own are borrowed
And all you get to keep is all you've shared
[Pre-Chorus]
So wipe away the tears for me
Know that we've made history
Remember no one ever really dies
[Chorus]
When the lights go down
Know that I am never far away
When the sun burns out
I'll be waiting on the brighter side of grey
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
When the lights go down
Know that I am never far away
When the sun burns out
I'll be waiting on the brighter side of grey
[Chorus]
I wouldn't hold my breath if I was you
'Cause I'll forget, but I'll never forgive you
Don't you know, don't you know?
True friends stab you in the front
[Verse 1]
It's funny how things work out
Such a bitter irony like a kick right to the teeth
It fell apart right from the start
But I couldn't even see the forest for the trees
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm afraid you asked for this
You got a lot of nerve, but not a lot of spine
You made your bed when you worried about mine
This ends now
[Chorus]
I wouldn't hold my breath if I was you
'Cause I'll forget, but I'll never forgive you
Don't you know, don't you know
True friends stab you in the front?
I wouldn't hold my breath if I was you
You broke my heart and there's nothing you can do
And now you know, now you know
True friends stab you in the front
[Verse 2]
It's kind of sad, 'cause what we had
Well, it coulda been something, I guess it wasn't meant to be
So how dare you try and steal my flame just 'cause yours faded?
Well, hate is gasoline, a fire fueling all my dreams
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm afraid you asked for this
You got a lot of nerve, but not a lot of spine
You made your bed when you worried about mine
This ends now
[Chorus]
I wouldn't hold my breath if I was you
'Cause I'll forget, but I'll never forgive you
Don't you know, don't you know
True friends stab you in the front?
I wouldn't hold my breath if I was you
You broke my heart and there's nothing you can do
And now you know, now you know
True friends stab you in the front
[Bridge]
You can run, but you can't hide
Time won't help you, 'cause karma has no deadline
You can run, but you can't hide
Time won't help you, 'cause karma has no deadline
[Chorus]
I wouldn't hold my breath if I was you
'Cause I'll forget, but I'll never forgive you
Don't you know, don't you know
True friends stab you in the front?
I wouldn't hold my breath if I was you
You broke my heart and there's nothing you can do
And now you know, now you know
True friends stab you in the front
[Outro]
And now you know, now you know
True friends stab you in the front
And now you know, now you know
True friends stab you in the front
