Empty Words lyrics - 12 Stones

With a hopeless heart and bloodshot eyes

The walls are closing in, this smile is my disguise

An anxious mind like a rising tide

Constantly drowning in a sea of endless lies

What did I expect to find in the shadow of a better life

My choices left me paralyzed, it's time to face the truth

I found myself trapped in this hell

Surrounded by empty words and tired excuses

I disguise myself 'til there's nothing left

Surrounded by empty words

These shackled hands bound by righteous chains

I need to search my soul and try to rearrange

This wasted life, so consumed by shame

Constantly lashing out and taking zero blame

What did I expect to find in the shadow of a better life

My choices left me paralyzed, it's time to face the truth

I found myself trapped in this hell

Surrounded by empty words and tired excuses

I disguise myself 'til there's nothing left

Surrounded by empty words

I never knew these empty words were haunting you

I never knew these empty words were haunting you

With every breath, I'm straying further from the truth

I found myself trapped in this hell

Surrounded by empty words and tired excuses

I disguise myself 'til there's nothing left

Surrounded by empty words

(Empty words)

The Killer lyrics - 12 Stones

Say you love and hate me

As you desecrate me

Break me down with a smile

Feel it creeping closer

The rich taking over

You're out for blood with fire in your lungs

When the killer takes control

Over your body and your soul

Everything dies

Trapped in this hell you can't contain

Your misery becomes my pain

When I survive

Swear I hate to do this

With the same excuses

Anger swallows me whole

You feel it creeping closer

The rich taking over

You're out for blood with fire in your lungs

When the killer takes control

Over your body and your soul

Everything dies

Trapped in this hell you can't contain

Your misery becomes my pain

When I survive

When the killer takes control

Over your body and your soul

Everything dies

Trapped in this hell you can't contain

Your misery becomes my pain

When I survive

Blessing lyrics - 12 Stones

Offer my hand you spit in my face

Blinded by failures you can't face the shame

The walls of your fortress come tumbling down

You cry for a savior no ones around

Paint me a picture of how things went wrong

Cuz this violence play your favorite song

Swim through the void as black as your soul

Never forget

You've lost control of me

Never change who I am

Lies will never hide the truth

Pain is a blessing in disguise

I shiver at the thought of you

Now I'll see you on your way

As you fall from grace

Glued to the past a moth to a flame

Where will you hide when you can't shift the blame

The further you fall the more that I gain

Never forget you've caused this pain

You feel

Burning deep inside of you

Behind the veil

Never take control of me

Never change who I am

Lies will never hide the truth

Pain is a blessing in disguise

I shiver at the thought of you

Now I'll see you on your way

As you fall from grace

No

You will never change

No no

You will never change

No

You will never change

No no

You will never change

You've lost control of me

Never change who I am

Lies will never hide the truth

Pain is a blessing in disguise

I shiver at the thought of you

Now I'll see you on your way

As you fall from grace

Voodoo Doll lyrics - 12 Stones

Don't pull my strings

I wanna know who died and crowned you king

You take this way too far and all your pain

Why do you take it out on me

You take it out on me, yeah

You're lighting up candles

Flying off the handle

Your crystal ball is lying

You can't control me

You can't hold me

Over your fire

No I'm not your voodoo doll

Not a victim strangled in your cloth

You think you got me underneath your spell

With your voodoo voodoo

You're playing dirty and your magic's black

I'm pulling needles out of my back

You think you cursed me but I won't fall

Cuz I'm not your voodoo voodoo doll

You know you haunt my dreams

Your so called power is not what it seems

Your darkest hour is not mine to face

So don't you take it out on me

Take it out on me, yeah

You're lighting up candles

Flying off the handle

Your crystal ball is lying

You can't control me

You can't hold me

Over your dying fire

No I'm not your voodoo doll

Not a victim strangled in your cloth

You think you got me underneath your spell

With your voodoo voodoo

You're playing dirty and your magic's black

I'm pulling needles out of my back

You think you cursed me but I won't fall

Cuz I'm not your voodoo voodoo doll

Don't pull my strings

I wanna know who died and crowned you king

No I'm not your voodoo doll

Not a victim strangled in your cloth

You think you got me underneath your spell

With your voodoo voodoo

You're playing dirty and your magic's black

I'm pulling needles out of my back

You think you cursed me but I won't fall

Cuz I'm not your voodoo voodoo doll

Yeah

Your voodoo doll

Not your voodoo voodoo

Nothing To Say lyrics - 12 Stones

There's nothing to say

At least while these clouds still lingers

And I feel ashamed

I've spent my life pointing fingers

I'll take the blame

And I'll take the weight of your world

The past will remain

The future's still wide open

Will you save me from this misery

My hate killing everything good in me

I am trying to find where I belong

A love starts to fade

It feels like the world is ending

Remember this place

Where we found a new beginning

If you take the blame

I'll take the weight of your world

The past will remain

The future's still wide open

Will you save me from this misery

My hate killing everything good in me

I am trying to find where I where I belong

Will you save me from this misery

My hate killing everything

Will you save me from this misery

My hate killing everything good in me

I am trying to find where I where I belong

Will you save me

Will you save me yeah

Time lyrics - 12 Stones

Time is never on your side

We must keep moving

We walk through this life so paralyzed

Our past will shake our future

The path that we choose is all our own

But only time will tell

We stand and fight

We hold the line

We chose our side

We won't compromise

If you fear the cost

The true time you lost

You're destined to fade

And you're waiting for something to change

Time is never on your side

We must keep moving

Before we fade into oblivion

If our fears and hate keep growing

We'll never shift the paradigm

But only time will tell

We stand and fight

We hold the line

We chose our side

We won't compromise

If you fear the cost

The true time you lost

You're destined to fade

And you're waiting for something to change

Underneath it all

What have we become

Will we rise or will we fall

Only time will tell

We stand and fight

We hold the line

We chose our side

We won't compromise

If you fear the cost

The true time you've lost

You're destined to fade

And you're waiting for something to change

Picture Perfect lyrics - 12 Stones

Looking for light in the darkness is something for fools

Searching for hope in a hopeless time but now I'm through

Because I know I have something inside

To keep me from stumbling over my pride

And I'm dying to believe

But now that it went away I thought it would end all today

And I can feel the fight deep inside me giving way

And I don't wanna give in but it's getting really hard

To give it all away, nothing's coming back to me

There was once a time

When everything seemed fine

Now I'm going back again

To this picture perfect place of mine

I won't believe something's wrong when I know that it's true

And I know I can't lose a thing if there's nothing to lose

Nothing will keep me from chasing my dreams

And I will not give up on all of these things

That I'm trying to achieve

But now that it went away I thought it would end all today

And I can feel the fight deep inside me giving way

And I don't wanna give in but it's getting really hard

To give it all away, nothing's coming back to me

There was once a time

When everything seemed fine

Now I'm going back again

To this picture perfect place of mine

But now that it went away I thought it would end all today

And I can feel the fight deep inside me giving way

And I don't wanna give in but it's getting really hard

To give it all away, nothing's coming back to me

There was once a time

When everything seemed fine

Now I'm going back again

To this perfect place of mine

Dying before my eyes

I reach to make it mine

And now I'm going back again

To this picture perfect place of mine

Save Yourself lyrics - 12 Stones

I give you words of sympathy

But you never end up listening

To what I have to say

You're missing out

And I don't wanna be the one

To always say I told you so

But I told you so

Hey, no, I told you so

You don't wanna save yourself

You only wanna waste what's left

Thinking I could never save you from

The one that you've become

I don't wanna waste my breath

I only wanna take what's left

Now this picture's getting so much clearer

A broken man inside the mirror

I feel like I'm the only one

Left inside this lonely world

And there's no hope for me

I'm missing out

And I don't wanna be the one

That's always on the losing end

But I'm losing it

Yeah, you know, I'm losing it

You don't wanna save yourself

You only wanna waste what's left

Thinking I could never save you from

The one that you've become

I don't wanna waste my breath

I only wanna take what's left

Now this picture's getting so much clearer

A broken man inside the mirror

Save yourself, save yourself

Don't leave me hopeless again

Save yourself, save yourself

Don't leave me hopeless again

You don't wanna save yourself

You only wanna waste what's left

Thinking I could never save you from

The one that you've become

I don't wanna waste my breath

I only wanna take what's left

Now this picture's getting so much clearer

A broken man inside the mirror

Save yourself, save yourself

Save yourself, save yourself

Lerlene lyrics - 12 Stones

Yesterday we watched the colours fade

As shadows danced across your fragile face

And on the inside we're dying just to let you know we're there

And that we care (that we care)

So close your eyes and drift beyond the stars and light our way

We'll be okay (we'll be okay)

The love you shared was strong and true

We're who we are because of you

Wake me up when its over

I swear I should have told her everything she has meant to me, yeah

Take me back to October

When I could have told her everything she has meant to me

Goodnight my sweet Lerlene

All the places that I've seen

Will never compare to the dreams and vivid memories

Of the words you said that set me free

We all struggle in this life

Breathing doesn't mean you're alive

Hold on to the ones you love

Chase your dreams

The love you shared was strong and true

We're who we are because of you

Wake me up when its over

I swear I should have told her everything she has meant to me, yeah

Take me back to October

When I could have told her everything she has meant to me, yeah

Wake me up when its over

I swear I should have told her everything she has meant to me, yeah

Take me back to October

When I could have told her everything she has meant to me

Goodnight my sweet Lerlene
