Decisions 02:55
Everyone gather 'round For the sound Of another silenced revolution Spend my days Finding work so I can pay For distractions and self destruction [Decisions! Decisions] of a life which I can't regret now. Sing a song Everybody writes a song About another failed execution Or write a song about another filthy lover Or her father, the politician. [Decisions! Decisions] of a life which I can't regret now. [Decisions! Decisions] of a life which I can't regret now. [Decisions! Decisions] of a life which I can't regret now.

I felt a man walking over my grave Oh what a fool, [I'll have you soon] I can hear another voice asking just how deep I really am [Are you afraid] that I'm too shallow to hide away? By the end of the night I'll be dead and buried alone Buried alone in the ground No marker, no clue, no sign that I was ever born Just a muffled sound from the ground Screaming "They got it wrong! They got it wrong!" [They got it wrong!] Dead men do tell tales You're not listening hard enough They're all around you Dead men do tell tales [Dead! Men! Do Tell Tales!] [Dead! Men! Do Tell Tales!] [Dead! Men! Do Tell Tales!] [Dead! Men! Do Tell Tales!] Dead men do tell tales [Dead men do tell tales!] [I died tonight!] [Dead men do tell tales!] [I died tonight and I know] [I know who killed me] [Dead men do tell tales!] [I died tonight!] [Dead men do tell tales!] [I died tonight and I know] [I know who killed me] [Dead men do tell tales!] [LaDaDa DaDaDaDa LaDaDaDa DaDaDaDa] Oh I'll find you And I'll haunt you For the rest of your life!

Madness 03:34
[We will survive] the madness and all the sadness We seem to face everyday of our lives When will we see another fateful destiny I want to see the world turn upside down And then we’ll dig into the ground… To bury all the dead But I’m not worried about all this misery ending right now Cause all the ignorant Should rest their souls in this crowded world we know And all my friends This is not the end It’s just a one way ride through hell and back again I know our times not done So let’s just go mad with all this stupid fun before it’s gone [We will destroy] the masses Could this be my cast off Into the seas until there is no more disease Why have we waited so long for our lives to move on And it takes an accident to reevaluate our sins [We will follow] the past Into the relapse of the shit we haven’t seen for years and years In fear we might just disappear What can we do to find a resolution? To bury all the dead But I’m not worried about all this misery ending right now Cause all the ignorant Should rest their souls in this crowded world we know And all my friends This is not the end It’s just a one way ride through hell and back again I know our times not done So let’s just go mad with all this stupid fun before it’s gone

[Off by the boughs] Those cowards sent us [Down to the deeps] With our hands tied up [There is no escape] To falling away [We’re falling away] As we plunge into the sea We know this isn’t all that there is meant to be For us, when we get out We’re going to find you and make you pay For what you have done to us Once we have fallen away [Woah Woah Woah Woah] [Woah Woah Woah Woah] We're falling away!!! [Woah Woah Woah Woah] [Woah Woah Woah Woah] We're falling away!!! We’ll break off the chains And rise from the depths to get what’s ours No prisons can hold us Not the watery nor the coldest We will rise from the depths [Woah Woah Woah Woah] [Woah Woah Woah Woah] We're falling away!!! [Woah Woah Woah Woah] [Woah Woah Woah Woah] We're falling away!!! We’ll break off the chains And rise from the depths to get what’s ours No prisons can hold us Not the watery nor the coldest [We will rise!] [Woah Woah Woah Woah] [Woah Woah Woah Woah] We're falling away!!! [Woah Woah Woah Woah] [Woah Woah Woah Woah] We’ll break the chains and [rise] [from the depths!] We’ll break the chains and [rise] [from the depths!] We’ll break the chains and [rise] [from the depths!] We’ll break the chains and [rise] [from the depths!] We’ll break the chains and [rise] [from the depths!] [We'll Rise] [From the Depths!] We’ll break the chains and [rise] [from the depths!] [We'll Rise] [From the Depths!] We’ll break the chains and [rise] [from the depths!] [We'll Rise] [From the Depths!] We’ll break the chains and rise!

[Whoa] you throw your life away in fear of better times in a different way [Whoa] you sit and waste away in fear of a different life, you're the only one to blame You spend your time breathing poison And all your friends are feeling for you But you can your life, and you feel euphoric because you think we are all wrong I find myself trying too hard to please you I've had my fill of all of your evil treasons And all along, I still get dramatic scenes and we are all still wrong Don't forget to quit as many times as possible Don't see your limits getting out of control If we let you sit around and just be responsible then we are all still wrong Who wants to travel around the world and sing songs Playing music with their friends at a party all night long? [Whoa] you throw your life away in fear of better times in a different way [Whoa] you sit and waste away in fear of a different life, you're the only one to blame

4AM 04:20
Spent our day in a wall of fog As we pass right through the northern bogs and Just trying to find a life at sea We see something lurking in the tides And we all start to fear for our lives We know this how it’s got to be [For a life sailing all the deadly seas!] As we dock our ship Start wandering around And we find ourselves in the middle of an independent, pirate-friendly town And everybody seems so nice to me As everyone starts drinking in their rounds And the music starts playing Everybody is dancing around And we know just how it’s gonna be [For a life sailing all the deadly seas!] [Spending our night dancing and drinking With our new friends Just huffing and breathing it out Never quite realize it’s 4AM!] [Spending our night dancing and drinking With our new friends Just huffing and breathing it out Never quite realize it’s 4AM!] Second night the thicker the fog And the drunker the pirates all dancing along And everybody singing their songs With their friends Can’t quite help but falling in With love With the pretty little siren all singing her songs About dancing and drinking and smoking and loving again [Spending our night dancing and drinking With our new friends Just huffing and breathing it out Never quite realize it’s 4AM!] [Spending our night dancing and drinking With our new friends Just huffing and breathing it out Never quite realize it’s 4AM!] [Spending our night dancing and drinking With our new friends Just huffing and breathing it out Never quite realize it’s 4AM!] [Spending our night dancing and drinking With our new friends Just huffing and breathing it out Never quite realize it’s 4AM!]

Seasick 04:30
Wake in the morning and the crew says to me [Hey there Johnny, would you take us out to sea?] Would you follow anywhere, even to the shores of death? [Not me!] Never me, not yet I said “You boys are gonna die, no you can’t live forever!” And they say [Not me, not me, not ever!] I said “The sea doesn’t kill men, oh it makes them better, and I go” [Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah!] I’m seasick! [Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah!] My head’s thick! [Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah!] I hear the clock go tick tock tick… [Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah!] I’m seasick! I take two drinks Nothing happens to me I take two more Start to roll with the sea I [drink, drink, drink] Until I [sink, sink, sink] Into the night Oh no, don’t let my mind start wandering And this is for me I cast a bottle towards the seas I’ll [fight, fight, fight] Until I’ve conquered everything That I’ve ever wanted out of a life at sea [Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah!] I’m seasick! [Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah!] My head’s thick! [Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah!] I hear the clock go tick tock tick… [Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah!] I’m seasick! [Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah!] I’m seasick! [Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah!] My head’s thick! [Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah!] I hear the clock go tick tock tick… [Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah!] I’m seasick! [Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! I’m seasick!] [Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! I’m seasick!] [Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! I’m seasick!]
