Black Veil Brides - Black Veil Brides Album Lyrics

Heart Of Fire

Driving through this world unknown,
I've built my life on broken bones.
Not living for this anymore,
You want a fight... I'll bring a war!

I feel alive inside
I won't be terrorized,
I'll take all the blame.

This heart of fire is burning proud
I am every dream you lost and never found
This heart of fire is stronger now
Build your walls but you can't keep me out
I'll burn them down.

I am every vow you broke,
They left for dead and turned to smoke.
Arm yourself with words of hate,
I'm ripping through the souls you take.

I feel alive inside
I won't be terrorized,
I'll stand up to the pain.

This heart of fire is burning proud.
I am every dream you lost and never found
This heart of fire is stronger now
Build your walls but you can't keep me out
Let's burn it down!

This heart of fire is burning proud.
I am every dream you lost and never found.
This heart of fire is stronger now.
Build your walls but you can't keep me out.

This heart of fire, fire, fire.
This heart of fire, fire, fire.
This heart of fire.

Faithless

Behold the new hate with all the same lost values
Forsake what lives deeper
In death we're all believers

Raise up your sirens
Break through the silence
We are united in the search for something more

Cross your heart
Open your mind
Hide your face in their disguise

Even when I fall down to my knees
I never say a prayer I don't believe
And I don't wanna look up to the Son
But I will never be the faithless one

No, I will never be the faithless one

Refuse to destroy the altars we are serving
The truth in living is that our souls are searching

Live with defiance
It's time to fight
Don't ever let them keep your words from being heard

Cross your heart
Open your mind
Hide your face in their disguise

Even when I fall down to my knees
I never say a prayer I don't believe
And I don't wanna look up to the Son
But I will never be the faithless one

No, I will never be the faithless one

Even when I fall down to my knees
I never say a prayer I don't believe
And I don't wanna look up to the Son
But I will never be the faithless one

Even when I fall down to my knees
I never say a prayer I don't believe
And I will never look up to the Son
But I don't wanna be the faithless one

No, I will never be the faithless one
But I will never be the faithless one

Devil In The Mirror

We are created the suffering ones
Condemned by the dying,
We sing out in tongues.
Caught in obsession with all that we love.
Never look forward, just straight down the gun

I can't take it any more
Every day feels like a war

The Devil in the mirror
Screaming that my heart is flawed
I'm never gonna let you win
No I will not surrender,
Even if I start to fall
I swear to you I'll rise again

Cast the illusions of hatred and pride
Take the communion in faith they provide
I'm just a human not ready to die
My voice is a weapon, my fear is a lie

I can't take it anymore
Everyday feels like a war

The Devil in the mirror
Screaming that my heart is flawed
I'm never gonna let you win
No I will not surrender,
Even if I start to fall
I swear to you I'll rise again.

Goodbye Agony

Heaven's gone, the battle's won
I had to say goodbye
Lived and learned from every fable
Written by your mind
And I wonder how to move on
From all I had inside
Place my cards upon the table
In blood I draw the line
I've given all my pride

Living a life of misery
Always there, just underneath
Haunting me, quietly alone
It's killing me, killing me
Dead and gone, what's done is done
You were all I had become
I'm letting go of what I once believed
So goodbye agony

I watch the stars and setting suns
As the years are passing by
I never knew that hope was fatal
Until I looked it in the eye
And now I'm not sure I am able
To reach the other side
Casting out the light

Living a life of misery
Always there, just underneath
Haunting me, quietly alone
It's killing me, killing me
Dead and gone, what's done is done
You were all I had become
I'm letting go of what I once believed
So goodbye agony
Goodbye agony

Not alone in forgiving
The faithful and the blind
Innocence is forsaken
I leave 'em all behind
And then I see that even angels never die

Living a life of misery
Always there, just underneath
Haunting me, quietly alone
It's killing me, killing me
Dead and gone, what's done is done
You were all I had become
I'm letting go of what I once believed
So goodbye agony
Goodbye agony
Goodbye agony

World Of Sacrifice

We're faithful broken promises of the lies
The virtues beaten down into your empty eyes
A saint is not a weapon, it's a message, a message.
A sermon of shame, a demon that you want to blame
Sell you, change you, leave you in a world of flames.
Pain is not a blessing, it's a lesson, a lesson

Don't bow down to a world of hate
From your cradle to the grave.

Cause even if you sacrifice beliefs to get through
And even if you take the side of lies over truth
Everyday the world will take what you give in to.
So hold on to every breath of life in a world of sacrifice.

A personal slave the one you left to die in vain
Sold you, changed you, taught you all their selfish ways.
Faith becomes an addiction not ambition, ambition

Don't bow down to a world of hate
From your cradle to the grave

Even if you sacrifice beliefs to get through
And even if you take the side of lies over truth
Everyday the world will take, what you give in to.
So hold on to every breath of life in a world of sacrifice.

Hold on, in a world of sacrifice
Hold on, until your last breath is gone
Hold on, in a world of sacrifice
Hold on, until your last breath is gone

Last Rites

Children born and raised on a Sunday
Hearing what their leaders say
Singing along
A story missing to the ones who won't listen
All the words are left alone

But I've been running out
Fighting to stay above the line and
I can feel the Devil is close so

It's gonna follow me down
It's gonna follow me down (Gonna follow!)

Last rites in a lost city
I can't fight for a life I've never known
Dark lights giving no pity
Last rites for a place I call my home.

Fear is in the war for society
Hungry for the heresy
Never atone
A spark that glistens for the
Souls of a mission
Canonize this pile of stones

But I'm rebelling now
Fighting to save my only life and
I can feel the rapture is close so

It's gonna follow me down
It's gonna follow me down (Gonna follow!)

Last rites in a lost city
I can't fight for a life I've never known
Dark lights giving no pity
Last rites for a place I call my home
For a place I call my home
For a place I call my home!

Sanctus
Dominus
I am left alone

Last rites in a lost city
I can't fight for a life I've never known
Dark lights giving no pity
Last rites for a place I call my home
For a place I call my home
For a place I call my home!

Stolen Omen

I see you live delusions
Paint your life with your conclusions
I don't know how to tell you
This path has lost its value

With lies of shroud I walk
I suffer a loss of life
I am the social hero

Oh, born in a time that's broken
I pray to the heroes of the damned
I sing with dull devotion
A song for the ones behind the mask
I can't feel false ideals
Another fool that's blind to what's real
I sing for the hope that's broken
They live for the stolen omen

I see this, I know pain
Let's see you try ah
You got me enter my mask
They awake the priest, ah

With lies of shroud I walk
I suffer a loss of life
I am the social hero

Oh, born in a time that's broken
I pray to the heroes of the damned
I sing with dull devotion
A song for the ones behind the mask
I can't feel false ideals
Another fool that's blind to what's real
I sing for the hope that's broken
They live for the stolen omen

Stand up now, and show us
What you live for, ah

Oh, born in a time that's broken
I pray to the heroes of the damned
I sing with dull devotion
A song for the ones behind the mask
I can't feel false ideals
Another fool that's blind to what's real
I sing for the hope that's broken
They live for the stolen omen

Stolen omen
Stolen omen

Walk Away

Now our lives have changed, I wish that I could heal
Time has taken love, a darker side revealed
For every lie begins, with what we used to feel

Blaming myself, tied to these chains, living in pain
All of your tears, everything's gone, is it too late? Walk away!

A lonely heart remains until we know the truth
But if it stays the same, can we make it through?
A life without the hurt, a life without you

Blaming myself, tied to these chains, living in pain
All of your tears, everything's gone, is it too late? Walk away!

Everything's gone, everything's gone
Blaming myself, tied to these chains, living in pain

All of your tears, everything's gone, is it too late? Walk away!
Walk away (everything's gone)
Walk away (everything's gone)
Walk away
A life without you, everything's gone
A life without you, everything's gone

Drag Me To The Grave

Drag me to the grave!
Woaaaah woah woah woah woah
Woaaaah woah woah woah woah
Woaaaah woah woah woah woah

Feel the blade of a broken promise
Carvin' wounds in a waste of conscience
I alone have the will to fight it
Save my own demise!

Another victim, another viper
I can feel sins grippin' tighter
To the spirits that we die for
And I will never let it go

Risin' up, I'm a fighter
Young and loud with desire
Heroes blessed by the fire
I won't let these demons

Drag me to the grave
(Woaaaah woah woah woah woah)
(Woaaaah woah woah woah woah)
Drag me to the grave!

Death is not from the depths of silence
Takin' life I have made so honest
I'm the world tearin' through this calm
Let's live another night

Feel the seasons changin' faster
Feel the reapers of disaster
And the spirits that we die for
And I will never let it go!

Risin' up, I'm a fighter
Young and loud with desire
Heroes blessed by the fire
Now I live just to conquer

All the pain around us creepin' forward
Reachin' out to

Drag me to the grave
(Woaaaah woah woah woah woah)
(Woaaaah woah woah woah woah)
Drag me to the grave!

Risin' up, I'm a fighter
Young and loud with desire
Heroes blessed by the fire
I won't let these demons

Risin' up, I'm a fighter
Young and loud with desire
Heroes blessed by the fire
I won't let these demons

Drag me to the grave
(Woaaaah woah woah woah woah)
(Woaaaah woah woah woah woah)
Drag me to the grave!

Drag me to the grave
(Woaaaah woah woah woah woah)
(Woaaaah woah woah woah woah)
Drag me to the grave!

The Shattered God

Failure and apathy descend
Success just hasn't been your friend
You live a lie high as the sky
This taste like iron blood and greed
Tell us of what you'll never be
I won't ask why, just let it die

Sleeping tight in your insanity
The truth could remedy

You stole it all, sold them your soul give it up,
You are, you are forever alone
Casting your stones, give it up
You are, you are the shattered god

I try with every ounce of hell
to pry you open from your shell
Twisting the knife
Regretting your life
Your eyes are empty like your bed
Somehow you haven't whelmed up dead
Chances passed by
You'll never fly

Singing hymns about the sins you see
But you'll never hear from me

You stole it all, sold them your soul give it up,
You are, you are forever alone
Casting your stones, give it up
You are, you are the shattered god

Feel the embrace, all of the hate
I have watched you fall
Finding your words sounding like silence
You've already set it all

You stole it all, sold them your soul give it up,
You are, you are forever alone
Casting your stones, give it up
You are, you are the shattered god

Crown Of Thorns

Seven years have come and gone
All that's left are scriptures songs
Livin' with the pieces of my memories
And I'll guard all the dyin' and kill all abandoned hope
When martyrs die who is left to hide the moonlight?

I will walk through hell in these words I've fell
Straight into your arms
With this crown of thorns
With my crown of thorns

Drag me into sky black lungs, give you hope to rise above
Am I what you want or who I had to be?
And I'm not the Messiah and I can't heal a broken home
I'll give you my life and my pride to live through tonight

I will walk through hell in these words I've fell
Straight into your arms
With this crown of thorns
With my crown of thorns

Faith incarnate through the darkness
Sins of carnage we've become of

I will walk through hell in these words I've fell
Straight into your arms
With this crown of thorns
With my crown of thorns
