"The Souvenir Scheme" lyrics
"The Souvenir Scheme"
We'll take flight from shore to shore
Make maps, the world is finally yours
This is what we do
Burning down the beaten path
Pushing forward with broken backs
We've made it through
Sometimes I have to remind myself
When I'm broke and I'm lost in the world that there's nowhere else
I'd rather be than wandering with my makeshift family
So bottle up your hopes and dreams
Our lives a memento caught in a souvenir scheme
Ignoring all the signs, and skipping over landmines
My brothers are all that I can trust
While I can't seem to satisfy my wanderlust
Burning down the beaten path
Pushing on with broken backs
Everyone is living a fucking lie...
Sometimes I have to remind myself
When I'm broke and I'm lost in the world
That there's nowhere else
I'd rather be than
Wandering with my makeshift family
I was 1,000 miles from home
I was sleeping on floors and losing everything I owned
Just wandering aimlessly into the unknown
And we built an arc that could save us
And we took a risk that could break us at any moment
Hey you!
Yeah you, I'm fucking talking to you!
Don't look down on me, you're fucking with a dynasty
No one wants to see your victory
You haven't seen the last of me
And we'll follow the road any way that the wind blows
'Cause this love is for life, we couldn't change it if we tried

Crown The Empire - "Lead Me Out Of The Dark" It's not quite a mystery.
I'm the one who's insecure,
you're the one that makes believe,
that we're all okay, we're doing fine,
when we're both fighting just to stay,
to stay alive,
a fragile state...
Upon This Dawning - "Embrace The Evil" How many times have you tried so hard to break me?
Too many times I cried after saying a prayer
I got a secret that's hard to believe
I saw the eyes of evil shining like diamonds
WAKE UP!
Fuck! No...
Famous Last Words - "Council Of The Dead" Settle in, won't you all take a seat?
Welcome here to the Land of Deceased.
You breathe in, you breathe out, it all feels the same,
You feel you're alive, but there's no blood in your veins!
Confess...
Myka, Relocate - "Playing It Safe" Every single chance that you're given
The choices you make
This is a matter of time at stake
Now I've begun to see
This was never the plan for me
Now it's time for us to start living
I've wasted too...
Kingdom Of Giants - "Who I Once Was" Here, we need to reach the sun.
Awaken the Vesper,
Let the midnight hour come to a stand-still
And you will see me for what I am inside.
A creature, a monster,
I'm anything but ordinary.
You will...
