Lyrics: She's beautiful, the future is hers And we are the dead, we're dead Do it to Julia Rip her face off first How can she make a song Written by machines sound so beautiful Two plus two is five Two plus two is four Two plus two is three The only way to peace is through war Do it to Julia Rip her fucking face off first

Iron & Steel 04:00
Lyrics: It's tough sometimes to be an Irons man Walking through the bad patches, hammer in hand Gunshot echoes are all I hear Lower your eyes, all I see is fear And I never claimed to be your Superman My grandpappy, he had it simple man Fought that goddamn steam machine, hammer in hand In the good old days, before Big Blue was in baby blue Before the power of God was in the hands of a few Forget the power, forget the glamour I wanna be your sledgehammer Why don't you call my name? Let me be your sledgehammer This will be my testimony Above our heads, looking down They might as well be wearing crowns Always sneering, looking in disgust And we are afraid, surrounded by distrust I found the fire, took to the sky Can you imagine what it means not to fly For those at the bottom, for those he saved Superman's moving He's rolling in his grave I never claimed to be your Superman

Lyrics: Breakdown, chipped away for days Stay sane, it's all anyone can ever take Shadows, arrows Break the earth, shatter the sky Betrayed by hope, you promised I could die Try to drown, wade into the sea Grab my cage and shook until someone Showed me the key Shadows, and serial killers Windows, there's broken glass everywhere Shallows, the river is always near Barrows, maidens beware Stuffed in a box Nothing to do but reflect Searching for knots Allow me to interject Wresting control, and we're all just threads Spun and woven through Plunge into decay, and wait around in the dark I spoke too soon Ladders, and lads not yet men Shadows, and shade's not gonna win Hallowed, my name across time Gallows, you promised I could die You promised I could die

Sleepwalking 03:49
Lyrics: Head hangs low, you can sleep when you're dead Headlines walk the streets, Mr. Monday overhead Breath of life leaks out, like a cloud, a flock of sheep Taxman in my dreams, am I awake, am I asleep? Mother's eyes, Atlantic blue Forgot how to spell my name, and I forgot yours too Don't leave me here, I don't wanna die alone The stars all get the joke, but me, I still don't know Hungry now, rats gnawing in my guts I try to close my eyes, but my goddamn eyes won't shut Quiet as the grave, blood like tigers in my ears Broken ballerinas, is that wine, are those tears? I'm afraid of the dark, and Mr. Monday's gone away I try to remember the questions, the ones I'm supposed to say Inferno in my guts, bubbling up, one last scream There's no more sand in me, nothing left but dreams Get up Walking in my sleep
