On album Awakened (2012)

…and plead for nothing
Or build a roof over my head?
I mourn the days that I wasted
Trying to change what has been set
Fighting against myself
Before I tear, tear out my…
…an unnecessary struggle
So now I know what it means to repent
Changing everything
Before I tear, tear out my eyes
I'll just admit…
…am awakened
I am awakened
Before I tear, tear out my eyes
I'll just admit they're part of me
(they're part of me)
I am awakened…

…off
Tear my mouth and nose off
Take out my eyes
Take out my eyes
Wanna take my clothes off
Tear my mouth and nose off
Tear out my…
…eyes
Tear out my eyes
I wanna walk on warm leaves
Hot sand, cold breeze
Hot sun, I want my mum, look mum
I'm…

…my clothes off
Tear my mouth and nose off
Take out my eyes
Take out my eyes
Wanna take my clothes off
Tear my mouth and nose off
Tear…
…out my eyes
Tear out my eyes
Wanna walk on warm leaves
Hot sand, cold breeze
Hot sun, I want my mum
Look mum, I'm…

Blow my
Head off
Tear my
Mouth and
Tear out my eyes
Tear out my eyes
Tear out my eyes
And i
See you
And i
See you
See you…

…that I can't even bear to watch
And I'd tear out my eyes (but) my hands are tied
I cannot save her
She wonders what she has…
…bear to watch
And I'd tear out my eyes (but) my hands are tied
I cannot
Cuz she fights a losing battle that I can't even bear…
…to watch
And I'd tear out my eyes (but) my hands are tied
I cannot save her
She swore she'd never cry again
She swore she'd never cry…

That I might die?
I saw you sweetly smile
And say, do try, do try
Anything
I'd tear out my eyes for you, my dear
Anything
To see everything…
…tear out my eyes for you, my dear
Anything
To see everything that you do, I do
Anything
I'd tear out my soul for you, my dear, oh my…
…lost
Leave me but when you leave
Know nothing's lost, nothing's lost
Anything
I'd tear out my eyes for you, my dear
Anything…

…out my eyes
For the hundreds and thousands who needlessly die
I'm losing the will to go on
I'm losing…
…apart
A life with no purpose but suffering and war (Suffering and war)
I just long to tear out my eyes…
A life with no purpose but suffering and war
I just long to tear out my eyes
For the hundreds and thousands who needlessly die
For the hundreds and thousands who needlessly die…

…couldn't kill a radiant thing, i know
I couldn't kill a radiant thing
Tear out my eyes
Render me blind, blind, blind
Deliverance lies…
…a radiant thing
Then come and get it
Tear out my eyes
Render me blind, blind, blind
Deliverance lies
In the absence of my my…
…mind
Tear out my eyes
Render me blind, blind, blind
Deliverance lies
In the absence of my my my mind…

…the way...
One day I'm gonna rip my eyes out of my head
And never gaze upon your twisted world again.
I'm gonna tear out my eyes…

…gave it away and I've come undone.
If you tear out my eyes would I still feel you there?
And if you tear out my eyes could I…

…in life
That makes me tear out my eyes
I see red for the first time)
Progress is out of sight
Stepping stone
How do you fucking…
…fears?
Your own worst fears
(You are the one thing in life
That makes me tear out my eyes
You wanna see me fall)
I wanna watch you fucking die
Heir to the throne you crown me
King of hate…

…with all of your light
Make an act of faith
And tear out my eyes
Reach up with all of your faith
Take your mouth off my dick
And tear…
…out my eyes
Can you trust anybody?
And do you know for sure?
Do you trust anybody
In a world where no one is pure?
Can you…

…like a broken crutch
I wanted it all, I wanted it all
Your voice in my head
Tear out my eyes and leave me for dead
Take me…
…Tear out my eyes and leave me for dead
Writing songs upon your bed
Let me leave you like I knew you want me to
Like I knew…

To side with sight
Will you question me?
One day, one life
That you take away
Tear out my eyes
It permits me to see
Tear out my…
…eyes
You can never hurt me
Render me blind
I won't even resist
With the back of my fist
The inception of tragedy
You can't see…

…told me
And carved it in my bones
Tear out my eyes
Remove my gift of
Sight, proves ever cursing
The light won't find us here…
