I can not be changed
I was born this way
And no matter how hard
you try to make me
I refuse to become someone like you
Making all the same god damn mistakes
Knowing you know better than you do
But you don’t give a damn
You’re so unaware
Defiant in the shadows of truth
And so you lie and you try to believe it this time
but you’re back at the beginning still you don’t know why
Never resist
Never quit
until the war is won
We’re fearless
We’re a god
The bullet in the gun
Never give in
Never sell out
Who you are
A thousand points of light
You’re a fucking star
I am unafraid
I think I found a way
But no matter how hard I try to save myself the pieces keep slipping away
I’m not the person that I thought I was even though I look exactly the same
But the voices in my head seem to understand they’re talking endlessly for hours and days
Till I deny and I find a faith within the lies searching for the truth among a sea of blackened eyes
Never resist
Never quit
until the war is won
We’re fearless
We’re a god
The bullet in the gun
Never give in
Never sell out
Who you are
A thousand points of light
You’re a fucking star
It doesn’t matter what you say
I really wasn’t listening anyway
I will always be the person I was meant to be
You can kill my identity but that’s not me
Never resist
Never quit
until the war is won
We’re fearless
We’re a god
The bullet in the gun
Never give in
Never sell out
Who you are
A thousand points of light
You’re a fucking star

sacrifice
Who the hell am I
Who the hell are you
Where the hell are we going now
and what kind of hell have we been through
What the hell have I done
What did you make me do
I never thought that it would come to this
Why did I have to go and listen to you
But sometimes I lie to myself to help me to believe
That everything is perfect and I’m right where I should be
Where went all the time
Where did it fade off to
I always thought i was invincible there was
nothing that I couldn’t do
What the hell have I done
What did you make me do
I never thought that I could sink this low
I never dreamed that I would turn into you
But sometimes I lie to myself to help me to believe
That everything is perfect and I’m right where I should be
It’s all an illusion
A falling facade
All the martyrs and the hero’s are waiting to be sacrificed
To their made up gods
There has to be a reason
I must of missed a sign
Now I’m running to the open arms of the ignorant leading the blind
And I will never be free
No matter what I think
Cause all the happiness I’ve ever know has been in the company of misery
But sometimes I lie to myself to help me to believe
That everything is perfect and I’m right where I should be
It’s all an illusion
A falling facade
All the martyrs and the hero’s are waiting to be sacrificed
To their made up gods

Tell me why I do this again
Is this the sentence or just the punishment
I could be cruel
I could be kind
You’ll never know
Cause the truth could all be lies
You think you know
You don’t have a clue
What you’re dealing with or who you’re talking to
I am your future
You are my past
And once I break you down I’ll be free at last
I’m falling away
Deeper down
I can’t reach
I’m falling away
So close your eyes
And go back to sleep
And we all have things we have to do
Like killing off the old to make way for the new
Burn it to the ground while dancing in the ashes
Overload the circuits till the mainframe crashes
You think you know
You don’t have a clue
What you’re dealing with or who you’re talking to
I am your future
You are my past
And once I break you down I’ll be free at last
I’m falling away
Deeper down
I can’t reach
I’m falling away
So close your eyes
And go back to sleep
Go back to sleep
I fell into a trap
I can’t get it back

flesh (the final straw)

flesh (the final straw)
Hold it right there
Take a good look in the mirror
Can’t you see
The beautiful mess
You’ve made out of me
Covered in lies
Justified by the design
That you have embraced in body and mind
But when it’s all said and done
You’re the one that you can’t trust
Can’t you see
My god what the hell have you done to me
And these wounds
They’ll never heal
They’re just scars to know that I’m real
And in the end would I do it again
Knowing just how it feels
Don’t believe what you hear
For the words they sound so sincere
You know they’re lies
They burrow deep and control the mind
Close your eyes and clear your head
Tune in tune out give in
And now you see
Everything’s gone I don’t feel a thing
Once should be enough
But twice is so much fun
1, 2, 3
The third times the charm
You’ve broken me
And these wounds will never heal
They’re just scars to know that I’m real
And would I do it again
Yea I’d do it again
All the while giving that shit eating grin
Just do it
Give me the final straw
Just do it
It won’t offend me at all
Just do it
Let’s get it over with
Just do it
You won’t see me ever again
Just do it
Give me the final straw
Just do it
It won’t offend me at all
Just do it
Nothing can stop me now
Just do it
No one cares any how
And these wounds
They’ll never heal
They’re just scars to know that I’m real
And in the end
It’s nothing but flesh
Caught in the teeth of the steel
Just do it
Give me the final straw
Just do it
It won’t offend me at all
Just do it
Nothing can stop me now
Just do it
Do it
Do it
Do it

I’ve been feeling it coming on
The days are short and the nights are long
And the more that I try it just gets harder
I’ve been feeling completely lost
Trying to find my way through the dark
And the more that I try it just gets darker
You could save me
If you really wanted to
If you believed in me
Then there is nothing I couldn’t do
So what do I have to do
Can’t you see me
Can’t you feel me
Can’t you hear the words that I’m needing
I got nothing left but this warn out soul
Say you need me
Don’t ever leave me
All the time we have is so fleeting
I don’t want to walk in this world alone
I’ve been trying to make it stop
But the world it won’t let me off
And the more that I try I just fall father
I’ve been crawling on hands and knees
Screaming begging and pleading please
And the louder I get I just get tired
You could save me
If you really wanted to
If you believed in me
Then there is nothing I couldn’t do
So what do I have to do
Can’t you see me
Can’t you feel me
Can’t you hear the words that I’m screaming
I got nothing left but this warn out soul
Say you need me
Don’t ever leave me
All the time we have is so fleeting
I don’t want to walk in this world alone
I really wish I could be like you
Cold callus and casually cruel
Cause the more that I love I just grow colder
I really wish you weren’t in my head
Telling me I’d be better off dead
But without you around I’d just be weaker
You could save me
If you really wanted to
If you believed in me
Then there is nothing I couldn’t do
So what do I have to do
Can’t you see me
Can’t you feel me
Can’t you hear the words that I’m needing
I got nothing left but this warn out soul
Say you need me
Don’t ever leave me
All the time we have is so fleeting
I don’t want to walk in this world alone

It Will Come To You LP
by ACTORS
supported by 7 fans who also own “self aware”
It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days. Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago.
