Commander! 02:14
This is for the man with the selfless fore-sight This is for the vision that you don’t understand This is for the eyes that are blind by lightning This is for the mind with the fool-proof plan Faster, Faster Electrical master We’re pulling the plug on this fantastic disaster Action, Action Attack it with passion We’ll buy you more time if you sell us the patents This is for the case that defies convention This is the example that you can’t explain This is for the story that we know so far and All the rest of the exceptions to the rules of the game Commander! This is no mistake This is no accident I work for a living I put my back into it Don’t be confused Between luck and circumstance I’m a fucking (modern) magician I make shit (it) happen This is for the days that were spent in darkness This is for the future that the mind’s eye saw This is for the man who died broken and alone and Never questioned the direction or the purpose of it all Commander!

Legacy 02:38
The battle lines are etched upon the page Defined by choices made Within this war of currents Speak not of better times ahead Your past belies what’s on your mind The purse dictates your movement Beat still your jealous heart Contrives deceits to entertain the mob You sell them propaganda This weight that falls upon me Cannot crush the inner force that drives Me into fits of passion Embattled, sealed between these fortress walls I bide my time within Retreat to staunch the bleeding Forgotten gratitude stands Deafened to the ears of history My legacy surrounds you It’s beyond me

There’s got to be another answer We can’t see anything from here This course was set without direction You’ve made a rival of a peer And I’ll be damned if you’ll see anymore blood from this stone I guess we’re not in this together I misinterpreted a friend You’ve entered blindly to this struggle You’ll live to see my silent triumph But in the end, I won’t gain their recognition And no one will find me here I’m destined to be forgotten No one said this would be fair I’ll turn away from your fortune and your fame I’m not concerned with excesses of this world And I’ll keep my promises You just need to buy me time I’m barely hanging on I’m closer to the edge But I’m staying alive We’ve got to keep this body moving I’ll never rest until I’m dead But I can’t keep up this pace forever And though it’s still days away, there’s trouble up ahead

Days of Yore 03:41
Trust, Loyalty, Servitude Respect, Patience, Sincerity Incensed, Justice, Nevermore Outcast, Misanthrope, Criminal Confined to the days of yore Silence, Darkness, Solitude Distance / Victory Limitless Lost, Hopeless, Penniless Broken, Nameless, Forsaken Desperate in the days of yore I never wanted this I never asked for this This imposition is exhausting Dedication lost Unforgivable Fate forced my hand Choked by your greed When I approached your door I asked for nothing but A chance to prove my worth An independent path For the betterment I command the impossible Confined to the days of yore Desperate in the days of yore
5.
This is the dawn of my reaction, Conviction, Confusion, Suspicion, Alarming accusations in the face of opposition to it My machine If the fruit of my endeavors tastes as bitter as defeat To intensify my efforts or submission taste as sweet as My machine I require bread and water I grow tired by the hour An emotional addiction Never be the second best Either with us or against us, but a cog among the rest inside of My machine
