Sevendust - Kill The Flaw Album Lyrics

Thank You

So help me to see
Give me a chance to come around
All this closure we need
Will this evade us all somehow

On my own
Forgive me now we know
Where to go from here
You are the beginning and the end
To all of this

Just wait
Feel it coming now
(find a reason
to live)
Fall back
What
No condition
Come on
The time has now
(believe in me)

So thanks for coming around
And pushing my head back to the ground
Thank you for slowing me down
I need to fall back and start it all over

Been holding on so long
Denying what I've done
I destroyed myself but I wish you well
Completely overthrown

On my own
Release me now we know
All the answers here we are
The beginning and the end to all of this

Fall back
What
No condition
Come on
The time has now
(believe in me)

So thanks for coming around
And pushing my head back to the ground
Thank you for slowing me down
I need to fall back and start it all over

So thanks for coming around
And pushing my head back to the ground
Thank you for slowing me down
I need to fall back...
I need to fall back...
I need to fall back...
(believe in me)

So thanks for coming around
And pushing my head back to the ground
Thank you for slowing me down
I need to fall back and start it all over

So thanks for coming around
And pushing my head back to the ground
Thank you for slowing me down
I need to fall back...

Death Dance

Plastic scars,
The pig dictifies who you are,
Blonde addiction and your silent scenes,
You run easy in the skin you chain.

You couldn't laugh for long,
There's no soul to claim,
Never been not a single thing,

You're talking on the book that drives you on.

So reach down far below,
And see yourself explode,
Let's destroy this common threat,
You better believe I'm gonna dance with the dead!

Constant threats,
You dig deeper in the filthy broil,
The door shuts and then the angel sleeps,
We all know that that's a damn wrong raid,

You're talking on the book that drives you on

So reach down far below,
And see yourself explode,
Let's destroy this common threat,
You better believe I'm gonna dance with the dead!

So reach down far below,
And see yourself explode,
Let's destroy this common threat,
You better believe I'm gonna dance with the dead!

So reach down far below,
And see yourself explode,
Let's destroy this common threat,
You better believe I'm gonna dance with the dead!

So reach down far below,
And see yourself explode,
Let's destroy this common threat,
You better believe I'm gonna dance with the dead!

Forget

Swallow your pride and denial
The worthless hours
I'm giving you something
Empathy is wasted as we expire
Held down and blinded

Conquer separate
Cut the ties that burn you to the core
Condemn deviate
Pray to God to see us through the storm
We decide where we go from here

So taste these words like fire
The burden is gone for all you know
The days we've lost are far behind
The only day we lived is the day we die

With empty eyes you run from a ghost
We're always on our own
Screaming for moments
The sky will burn
We crucify the ones we love
We remain guarded

Downward eliminate
Do you hear them crying out for more
We see nothing
But a dream burning on the floor
We decide where we go from here

So taste these words like fire
The burden is gone for all you know
The days we've lost are far behind
The only day we lived is the day we die
(Listen to me)
(Taste these words)

So taste these words like fire
The burden is gone for all you know
So taste these words like fire
The burden is gone for all you know
The days we've lost are far behind
The only day we lived is the day we die
(Taste these words)

Letters

If you could see inside of me
See my conflicted world
It's watered up and blown away

So for all to know you burn through me
You're surrounded confronted now with this
And see the light of day

I write a letter just to say
I'm not the only one who lost the way
Don't let me hold you back now
We got time to get to burn the page

I write a letter just to say
We're not the only one to threw away
And say goodbye it's all to say
I run my last letter for you today

I saw weakness crawling all over you
Like a plague taking over the world
We stayed alive to fear all the pain

So with all I know you can not say
the dearly departed just burn what's left of me

I write a letter just to say
I'm not the only one who lost the way
Don't let me hold you back now
We got time to get to burn the page

I write a letter just to say
We're not the only one to threw away
And say goodbye it's all to say
I run my last letter for you today

The rest of my life [?]
completely blind, decided
and not pulling through
I don't give a damn
the words speak the truth
I left it in my letter to you

I write a letter just to say
I'm not the only one who lost the way
Don't let me hold you back now
We got time to get to burn the page

I write a letter just to say
We're not the only one to threw away
And say goodbye it's all to say
I run my last letter for you today

Today, I run my last letter for you today

Cease And Desist

The story of you,
Undersold living proof.
A man truly dies before the grave.
The glory and truth overreach black and blue
From the daily demands,
I'm a fool.

Blood red! You said
Everything I had to hear!
Conceive inbred!
Pull the skin back and grin!
Deaf ears! Split tongue!
Keep your eyes down and run!

So long! Fair enough!
You found a way to kill the plan!
Whoa! Things were looking up!
But the bastards, here they come again!
(They come again, they come again!)

A life line abused, cut the cord, what's the use?
Calling on your faith
That you lost inside your crowded head and hid away.
Yeah I'm the fool!

Blood red! You said
Everything I had to hear!
Conceive inbred!
Pull the skin back and grin!
Deaf ears! Split tongue!
Keep your eyes down and run!

So long! Fair enough!
You found a way to kill the plan!
Whoa! Things were looking up!
But the bastards, here they come again!
(They come again, they come again!)

So long! Fair enough!
You found a way to kill the plan!
Whoa! Things were looking up!
But the bastards, here they come!

You throw yourself in line again!
You're taking my dreams right out of my hand,
And that's the smile of a guilty man!
And the darkest clouds will roll away!

So long! Fair enough!
You found a way to kill the plan!
Whoa! Things were looking up!
But the bastards, here they come again!

So long! Fair enough!
You found a way to kill the plan!
Whoa! Things were looking up!
But the bastards here they come again!

Not Today

Transcend
We try to rip the shell away
Into the void without a trace
The counter measure you have now
Won't do a thing

It won't stick the ugly truth is here
Go on and disappear love
The crooked smile we fake
Is that the best we get
Is that the best we get

This is the thing that swallows you whole
Don't give away what you wanted so long
There's no more words no more reasons
Not one more lie you can feed us
Oh you know all the things we loathe
We become it
I defeated it we will become this

Resist
You bite your tongue and stay asleep
That's all the dirt that we need
The guilty pleasure you came for fed your disease
It don't stick the lines are blurred and grey
Go on and try to kill love
And that's your last mistake
Is that the thanks we get
Yeah that's the thanks we get

If I was wrong then shut me down
You open up surrendered

(all things must end but not today)

But you don't know what gives us hope
Enough to move forward

Chop

On my way to a dark horizon
Struggle is my name
Disgrace has yet to find me
But I see it every day

Damn all your little voices
My demons whisper a prayer for death
God help me, now your moving mountains
You wash the blood and get away again
Look up to the blackened sky
Decide when it's time to feel it

I see this heading for disaster
Shadows coming, am I dreaming?
Why can't I feel it?
I see this opened up and bleeding
Cut the power that keeps me breathing
But I still feel it

What do you say
To the ghost you follow?
Do you pray for sweet escape?
What remains of the life you waste
And did you live another day?

Damn all your little voices
My demons whisper a prayer for death
God help me, now your moving mountains
You wash the blood and then get away again
Look up to the blackened sky
Decide when it's time to feel it

I see this heading for disaster
Shadows coming, am I dreaming?
Why can't I feel it?
I see this opened up and bleeding
Cut the power that keeps me breathing
But I still feel it

I see this heading for disaster
Shadows coming, am I dreaming?
Why can't I feel it?
I see this opened up and bleeding
Cut the power that keeps me breathing
But I still feel it

Kill The Flaw

(Shaking)
It tastes so wrong it burns
(Inside of me)
I thought some meaning would break it
(Dead flames)
Feared I'd see it every day
I thought the feelings were sacred

Travel back from going nowhere
Reflect along the way

If I would have ever
Seen the signs of forever
Made us leave it all
Can you love at all

If I had another
Chance to show you the other
Way to live for it all
Can you kill the flaw

(Fading out)
Just to end it
(Shaking)
From the sight that I'm seeing
(Hating)
Everything you'll always be
Find another reason to fake it

Travel back to where you're nothing
Reflect along the way

If I would have ever
Seen the signs of forever
Made us leave it all
Can you love at all

If I had another
Chance to show you the other
Way to live for it all
Can you kill the flaw

If I would have ever
Seen the signs of forever
Made us leave it all
Can you love at all

If I had another
Chance to show you the other
Way to live for it all
Can you kill the flaw

Silly Beast

So if my eyes are sewn
Just let me be!
Don't say a word, I go alone!
And if you think it's so wrong
Just draw the line and warn the world!
The kill is on!

Beneath this wonderful lie you mastered!
You find a dark place,
To throw away all the light like a coward!
Your miracle's a lie to us all!

For all the seasons you have lost!
You beg for time!
You waste the words!
(Just let it go)
And on your dying
You hold the line,
Forget the world

You're on your own!

Beneath this wonderful lie you mastered!
You find a dark place,
To throw away all the light like a coward!
Your miracle's a lie!

Beneath this wonderful lie you mastered!
You find a dark place,
To throw away all the light like a coward!
Your miracle's a lie to us all!

Beneath this wonderful lie you mastered!
You find a dark place,
To throw away all the light like a coward!
Your miracle's a lie!

Beneath this wonderful lie you mastered!
You find a dark place,
To throw away all the light like a coward!
Your miracle's a lie to us all!

Peace And Destruction

I know this is wrong
You say the word, I'll be the war
I am the blood!
I am all that you know!

(Cut it DOWN!)
I see the devil and he knows your name!
(Cut it DOWN!)
Our time has come
No matter what you say!

The voids we fill
Don't make us beautiful!
All the hope that we kill
Will slowly end us!
Take the time to heal!
Til then refuse it!

(So cut it! So cut it!)
So cut it down!
(So cut it! So cut it!)
So cut it!

I want the fight without a choice
Say the word and all is yours
I'm the blood, I'm the chosen!
Give them something to see here!

(Cut it DOWN!)
I see the devil and he knows your name!
(Cut it DOWN!)
Our time has come
No matter what you say!

The voids we fill
Don't make us beautiful!
All the hope that we kill
Will slowly end us!
Take the time to heal!
Til then refuse it!

(So cut it! So cut it!)
So cut it down!
(So cut it! So cut it!)
So cut it!

I refuse it!
I'm the blood!
I'm the chosen!

The voids we fill
Don't make us beautiful!
All the hope that we kill
Will slowly end us!
Take the time to heal!
Til then refuse it!

The voids we fill
Don't make us beautiful!
All the hope that we kill
Will slowly end us!
Take the time to heal!
Til then refuse it!

(So cut it! So cut it!)
So cut it down!
(So cut it! So cut it!)
So cut it!
