You fill your ego with the misfortune of others Assuage your turmoil from putting me down But I'm invincible to your ridicule So go and looking the mirror to see your real foe cuz I know you're nothing but a Social Vampire Day after day, week after week You're talking your shit somehow I'm still at peace Gossip and freaks, paparazzi will soil my name Somehow I'm still at peace Take your time, dig up all the dirt you can on me Don't matter how bad you make me look You cannot repair yourself Your pride is insatiable in hell You live with the rumors that you tell Your face is sallow, your self-esteem so shallow There's no telling how low you're willing to let yourself go And with a heart so narrow, and spirit so fallow You poison others so you won't have to grow You're nothing but a Social Vampire A Date With Disaster Social Vampires in Hell

They fill our schedule before we hit puberty Instill beliefs inside our heads of lame priorities Convincing us that we should respect their authority They wait for us to break and give in to conformity But we got the choice, it's not just a phase They won't break me in this Coming of Age This Coming of Age, You set your own stage So who will be saved in this Coming of Age Don't fall at all for their little scare tactics, it's pathetic How easily we can be deceived by all their false prophets And so they weave their little story, it's so boring, can't handle it Cuz I know that there's so many legitimate perspectives Yeah, alright, let me see you shake your money maker to this… Hypocrites tell you that life isn't fair They screw here while you look over there Misdirecting, let the buyer beware All I know is you best be prepared

You've got your head in the vice of the elite Dirty fingernails are now determining The future placement of your only body Infections festering, They got what they need You don't have to stand for everything that they say You don't have to sit and watch your heart die Take these Hopes and Dreams and turn them into A Reality that no one can ever take away No matter what they do to try and degrade you Caught in the barbwire, Fences run between us Sickening to see how indecisive we can be And if you find a way out of here Be sure to let me know so I can… You know sometimes people try and say that you can't do something even though that they know that you can. Cuz they're afraid if you succeed that they might feel bad about themselves Cuz they see that they ain't going nowhere in life And they don't want you to go nowhere in life But listen here…

I got a secret, I got something I need to say I got a secret and it's been getting in my way I got a secret I hope I can trust you with I got a secret, am I man or am I just a myth And everyone sees the face that I wanted them to see And everyone looks the same when they're staring back at me Well you might be the one who can finally here the truth So please let down your guard and I'll open up to you I got a secret that's been burning me inside I got a secret I 'm getting sick of trying got hide I got a secret cuz I'm afraid of what you'll think of me I got a secret and it won't, it just won't let me be…

My Reality 03:55
Leave my name out of the rat race I lost my face to rain and the clouds Disintegrating never felt so good I peer through darkness from behind my hood God damn, I got nothing to say God damn, I found another way to see God damn, I got a lot of doubt Everything I used to know turned inside out Solidity is breaking down breaking down nothing but energy you feel when you find yourself in a universe run by telepathy And I don't where I draw the line between my fantasy And what I call reality, No I don't have the time To make petty decisions, this is my reality It's My Reality… God damn, this is a whack-ass trip God damn, I never knew it could be like this God damn, I got nothing to lose Dig it up, dig it up a myriad to choose Don't you fuck with My Reality

Tarot 03:19
What's it gonna be, What's it gonna be Can you see, do you see what is happening with perfect clarity Can you bounce back, bounce back from the dead what you said in your head echoing and now you're seeing red One time, one time you were in the melody In sync zombie, so what's it gonna be morphine thorazine or your own adrenaline Can you see, do you see, tell me tell me what's it gonna be Tarot Tarot, Hello, can you please answer me I know you know everything that I cannot see Tarot Tarot, Hello, are you my destiny I know you know, so why don't you just answer me Take a whack at me philosophically Take anatomy, what are we, nothing but a vitamin and mineral deficiency drowning in our enemies only here to please ourself and no one else Why not answer me, where is destiny Out or inside me, I can answer me

Mediocrity 03:57
You got something to prove to your old mom and dad Gonna show them you're a man son You got something to probe aw dude that's so sad But you can't be had Running around in circles like a chicken with it's head off Nowhere to go but down when you go to work and you don't even a clue why, don't say it's the money You're down on your knees, never at ease stuck in between your life and your dreams starting to wheeze like a disease giving into Mediocrity…way to go You got something to prove to the girl down the screen You try to buy her affection You got something to prove with your face on TV Hey everybody, ain't you proud, look at me Running around in circles like a chicken with it's head off Nowhere to go but down when you follow trends Trying to impress everyone whom you don't even respect One down, one to go, one life with nothing to show You gotta slow the tempo, close your eyes and get to know yourself One down, one to go, one life with nothing to show You gotta slow the tempo, close your eyes and realize that you're… Don't give into Mediocrity

Let's not call it goodbye Let's just say that I'll see you when I do Let's not call it goodbye But it don't make no sense trying to continue Let's not call it goodbye It's not over we're just putting things on pause Let's not call it goodbye while we rectify all our flaws It's better for me It's better for you It's better for everyone who knew us The way that we are the way that we scar The way that we tear each other apart Let's not call it goodbye but something ain't right Let's not call it goodbye Let's just say that I don't have the time for you Let's not call it goodbye just a vacation from the fights you put me through Let's not call it goodbye but I been trying to renovate my life Let's not call it goodbye but now I got to choose the paths that's right

The Serenity 04:53
Find your peace, it's high time you atoned We cannot subject ourselves to buying into the stress that they want us to own Breathe in breathe out listening along We need to block out the noise that they keep selling us like superficial love songs Why do you do the silly things you do You know we don't want it all but we know there's something wrong The Serenity, where's the Serenity Feel the rise and fall but don't ever tag along The Serenity, where's the serenity Blinders on you limit what you see You know, nobody seems to realize that the only thing in life worth having, is the only thing that's free Kundalini is slithering between and what we don't realize is that all the enemies we see outside are really just reflections of ourselves Why do you do the silly things you do..
