LYRICS:

Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
Were laid spread out before me, as her body once did
All five horizons revolved around her soul as the Earth to the Sun
Now, the air I tasted and breathe has taken a turn

Oh, and all I taught her was everything
Mmm, I know she gave me all that she wore

And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds
Of what was everything
All the pictures have all been washed in black
Tattooed everything

I take a walk outside
I'm surrounded by some kids at play
I can feel their laughter
So, why do I sear?

Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin around my head
I'm spinning, oh-oh, I'm spinning
How quick the sun can drop away?

And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
Of what was everything
All the pictures have all been washed in black
Tattooed everything
All the love gone bad turned my world to black
Tattooed all I see, all that I am
And all I'll be

I know someday, you'll have a beautiful life
I know you'll be a star in somebody else's sky
But why, why, why can't it be
Why, can't it be mine?

Why, can't it be mine?

Why
Can't it be
Can't it be
Mine?

LYRICS:

You're miles away
Sorrow remains
It's killing me
Lost in the lonely sun

A disaster we could not deflect
A heavy hit right to the chest
A dawn that burned but never set
The horizon fills with your last breath

A wretched storm
An unnerving curse and it came for you
Feel the loss
As time goes on

You're miles away
Sorrow remains
It's killing me
Lost in the lonely sun
The pain still stays
Your hue won't change
It’s haunting me
Am I the only one

Don’t tell me it'll all be fine
A mourning haze a streak of light
A golden ray shines where you lie
A heartfelt cry screams through the burnt sky

You're miles away
Sorrow remains
It's killing me
Lost in the lonely sun
The pain still stays
Your hue won't change
It’s haunting me
Am I the only one

Ashes above
Black out the sun

Draw your last breath
Your silhouette
This deep regret
Your vast spirit

You're miles away
Sorrow remains
It's killing me
Lost in the lonely sun
The pain still stays
Your hue won't change
It’s haunting me
Am I the only one

Woahh oh oh o woah
Even though you're gone, I wait for you
Woahh oh oh o woah
Even though you're gone, I wait for you

LYRICS:

Face off, settle the score
Can't bear to let you in
Step back and lock the door
Or let all the pain sink in
Head down in a panic
Leave it let it lie all the damage
Buried alive, heart beat for the last time
Sit down, let the pain sink in

Gripping my heart, ready to let it go
Bracing for war, no need to let it show
Severed the tie, and let it bleed
But again and again and again
I let you in my head keeps spinning
And my skin is splitting
Buried alive, heart beat for the last time
Bear down, and let the pain sink in

Feeling empty, tear my whole world apart
Lead me, to grief watch it all fall apart
Given everything you know
Would you leave?
Burdened by a hollow soul
Would you leave?

Facedown, I've lost all hope
Constricted I can't breathe
The heavy weight of your words
Are pulling tight on me
Alone in the panic
Leave it let me die, let me vanish
Buried alive, heart beat for the last time
I’m gone, let it all sink in

Bury me, seven feet
12 inches from where I'd sleep
Suffocate in concrete
I won't return to tragedy
I won't return
Bury me, seven feet
12 inches from where I'd sleep
I won't return to tragedy

Feeling empty, tear my whole world apart
Lead me, to grief watch it all fall apart
Given everything you know
Would you leave?
Burdened by a hollow soul
Would you leave?

I won't return

LYRICS:

A BLEAK VIEW OF DAYS AHEAD
THIS LIFE A CONSTANT DREAD
A DEBT THAT CAN'T BE PAID
DAMAGED, DECAYS AND FRAYS

GOT MYSELF IN A BEND
A TERMINAL UNREST
NO WAY TO TURN OR RESET
NO CHANCE THAT I'LL REGRESS

SIGHTS SET
AND I'M DONE BEING OVERWHELMED
HEAD DOWN
AND MY HAND’S BEEN FUCKING DEALT
IT'S DO OR DIE, NOW STEP ASIDE
CAUSE I WONT KICK BACK, WON'T LET GO
IT'S A DOGFIGHT

DON'T WAIT TIL'
LIFE HAS BROKE YOUR WILL
BURIED BENEATH THE PAST
DOWN IN THE HOURGLASS
YOU CAN'T
WAIT HERE UNTIL
YOU COULD BARELY FEEL
BURIED BENEATH THE PAST
DOWN IN THE HOURGLASS
HOLD FAST

EMBRACE THE CHAOS AND DISORDER
AIM THE MORTARS AT ME

EMBRACE THE PAIN
LOAD EM' UP, AIM THE MORTARS AT ME
EMBRACE THE PAIN
CALL IT UP, COME CLEAN THE DEBRIS

GOT MYSELF IN A BEND
A TERMINAL UNREST
NO WAY TO TURN OR RESET
NO CHANCE THAT I'LL REGRESS

DON'T WAIT TIL'
LIFE HAS BROKE YOUR WILL
BURIED BENEATH THE PAST
DOWN IN THE HOURGLASS
YOU CAN'T
WAIT HERE UNTIL
YOU COULD BARELY FEEL
BURIED BENEATH THE PAST
DOWN IN THE HOURGLASS
HOLD FAST

Lyrics:

STAY AWAY
IT'S LIKE I'M BROKEN AND I AM AFRAID
THAT I'VE FALLEN AND
I DON'T WANT TO BE THE ONE WHO'S
FEELING LIKE A STRANGER IN THIS ROOM

CAUGHT UP IN THE PRESSURE
AND IT FEELS LIKE I'LL NEVER

GET OUT OF HERE
I KNOW YOU WANT TO BE
YOU WANT TO BE ELSEWHERE
JUST LET ME BE
ANYWHERE BUT HERE

I DON'T WANT TO BE THE ONE
HAUNTED (HAUNTED)
BY THE GHOSTS OF LOVERS LOST
ON THEIR WAY TO HELL
FROM BROKEN HOMES
AND STREETS OF TROUBLED SOULS

STAY AWAY
SOMETIMES IT FEELS LIKE I'LL NEVER
I'LL NEVER KNOW BETTER
TORN APART AND THE REASON
WAS TO STAND BEHIND OUR WORDS

Lyrics:

I NEVER THOUGHT IT COULD BE LIKE THIS
I NEVER THOUGHT IT COULD GET THIS WAY
ANOTHER DAY, LEFT SHAKING
BEING ALONE AND STILL DRENCHED IN SHAME
I BEG FOR ALL OF THIS, TO JUST END ONE DAY
SO I CAN JUST EXIST
AND DRAW BACK FROM THIS COLD WAR

THERE'LL BE A DAY
WHERE THESE VULTURES FLY AWAY
WRETCHED SORTS FROM DAYS
WHERE I DID NOT BELONG
THERE'LL BE A DAY
WHERE THIS SUFFERING WILL END
LEAVING ME WITH DAYS
WHERE I CAN JUST BELONG

THE HALLS ARE FILLED AND THERE IS NO SOUND
I SEE THIS VISION OF YOU
YOU'RE ALMOST BREAKING DOWN
FROM ALL THE THINGS THAT I COULD HAVE SAID
AND THAT I SHOULD HAVE SAID
BUT I JUST DROPPED MY HEAD
I BEG FOR ALL OF THIS, TO COME BACK YOUR WAY
SO I CAN BE AT PEACE
AND TAKE HOLD OF THIS COLD WAR

(CHORUS)

DAYS WHERE I CAN JUST BELONG

I SPENT THE NIGHT AWAKE
FOREVER TOSSING AND TURNING
TRYING NOT TO BREAK
I PRAYED YOUR SOUL TO TAKE
SO I COULD END THIS NIGHTMARE
AND GET THROUGH THE DAY

THE ONLY THING THAT GETS ME THROUGH
IS KNOWING THERE'S AN END
A TIME AND PLACE WHERE OUR WORLDS
WILL JUST NEVER CROSS AGAIN
IT'S SAD TO SEE IT PLAY OUT
LIKE THERE IS NO OTHER WAY
FOR IT ALL
TO END ANOTHER WAY

THIS ALL HAS TO END SOMEDAY

Lyrics:

MAYBE YOU WILL NEVER LEARN
THE HARD FACT THAT THE WORLD DOESN'T TURN FOR YOU
THERE'S SO MUCH THAT YOU WILL NEVER KNOW
BECAUSE YOU'VE NARROWED YOUR MIND AND IT'S YOUR POINT OF VIEW
THAT SUFFERS FROM YOUR OWN DAMN IGNORANCE
AND IT BURNS YOU TO KNOW THAT YOU HAVE
LOST YOUR SIGHT OF WHAT'S RIGHT
WHILE YOUR MIND CRAVES ATTENTION
AND THESE FACTS YOU FAILED TO MENTION

WHEN IN DOUBT WILL YOU TAKE THESE SITUATIONS
YOU'VE BEEN DEALT AND TURN THEM ROUND
OR WILL YOU LET YOUR WORDS BLEED OUT
WHEN IN DOUBT WILL YOU TAKE THESE SITUATIONS
YOU'VE BEEN DEALT AND TURN THEM ROUND OR WILL YOU LET THE HATE BLEED OUT

YOU CAN DO YOUR BEST TO CARE
OR YOU CAN DO YOUR WORST AND NEGLECT THE TRUTH
WHEN YOU ACCUSE AND ABUSE A VICTIM
BASED ON SURROUNDING FICTION

HARD FACTS WILL SPIT BACK AT YOU

RED HERRING YOU MISLEADING DECEIVING FUCK
RED HERRING YOU CAN DO YOUR BEST
BUT YOU CAN'T FOOL US ALL

PLAYING OUT BEFORE YOUR EYES
WITNESSING THE SADDEST THING
THE DEVIL’S BY YOUR SIDE
RED HERRING

Heists - Defeated [Official Music Video]

HEISTS 2018-12-11 | Download 'Defeated' here: https://smarturl.it/hd18

Suffocating alone
These thoughts over bearing and each night it’s wearing me
To where I believe
That what I had planned won’t become what I’ve seen
And each night it repeats
I breathe and I breathe
But I feel no release
God please take this from me
This haunting cold feeling of me versus me

Yeah I would rather be alone

Catch me running out of feelings
And I can’t take
Giving all I’ve got and yet I still break
I’m scared to fail, I’m left derailed
Catch me running out of reasons
To hold this weight
Can not bare the fact that I might not make It
Through this hell, that I help build

Now I can’t believe
That this tragedy has become my routine
Another night spent caged in
Fighting these demons who sound just like me
How am I supposed to just be
If I can’t even face this reality
That this is how it will be
Forever stopping myself from being me

I would rather be alone
Than in a room with my self

Catch me running out of feelings
And I can’t take
Giving all I’ve got and yet I still break
I’m scared to fail, I’m left derailed
Catch me running out of reasons
To hold this weight
Can not bare the fact that I might not make It
Through this hell, that I help build

Oh
Don’t you ever look back on what could have been
No
I’ll never look back on what could have been.

Lyrics:

Investing countless seasons here
Caught in this rut I swear one day I'll disappear
Maybe I've learnt enough to make something
Of my own in this fabricated hell
Born to survive and born to die
This is my grave disquiet

More often than not
I fear what's to come

Disquiet (disquiet)

This city it feeds me though it's so cold
Forever struggling to find my home
We're far away, we're far away home
Disquiet

From an early age, taught to obey this way of life and nothing more
Going insane repeating days over again, will this ever change
Born to survive and born to die
This is our grave disquiet

Lost my heart, and lost my mind
Lost my voice, and lost my life

Born to survive and born to die
Born to survive and born to...

This city it feeds me though it's so cold
Forever struggling to find my home
We're far away, we're far away home
Disquiet

Lyrics:

I hear your voice and it's not like before
I see you can't look at me when we talk
I know there's something eating you and you're not telling me
You've been gone for so long now that this bond has broken

Are you bothered by the choice you made
The blood is on your hands
I never wanted it to be like this
You have to understand
How could I forsee this deception
This is our tale of betrayal..

Revenant

Bury me, Bury me
I see the wolves walk
Over me, Over me
We're dead and gone

Are we destined to be here haunted by your words this is so unjust
Are we forced to be unclear about our thoughts and the trust between us
Are we destined to be here
Are we forced to be unclear

Maybe I don't want to fucking hear
Maybe I dont want to fucking know
Every word you've ever said about me though I need to know
Why werent you here by my side when it all went south
On my own I was down and out
There'll be a moment you will depend
On calling out to your old friends

Revenant.
