Lyrics to Angel Or Alien [Full Album 2021] by Born Of Osiris

Tracklist: 01. Poster Child You'll never laugh in the same way you did So dilute your instincts You pretend to shake the snow globe But say, "Forget the world" in your misery Always locked in the cradle, feeding How much more do you need? You refuse to take the high road Lay the blame in yourself and not at your feet Speak to me Poster child 'Cause you know everything You know everything about the world What would I ever do? Ever do without you? 'Cause you know everything 'Cause you know everything If your memories of the past are bigger than your future plans You're going nowhere, you're moving backwards Guilty, guilty, why this anxiety? You say the engine died? Try turning the key Speak to me Poster child 'Cause you know everything You know everything about the world What would I ever do? Ever do without you? 'Cause you know everything Hear the telephone is absent silent Operate on influence Always lying Slip down and spiral Can we increase the dose? A million tiny reasons It's so easy breathing The air is poison You walk on crooked grounds Your upsides gone and insides down Speak to me Poster child 'Cause you know everything You know everything about the world What would I ever do? Ever do without you? 'Cause you know everything Speak to me (You know everything) Poster child (You know everything about the world) And what would I ever do? 'Cause you know everything 02. White Nile Careful now, you've come too close to know the where and when of your unholy ghost And even though we are made of dust A sliver of gold is inside each of us I am captive high on a daily basis The amount I can't control the way I understand your many faces I lose the sense of what you mean to me Because I know you are the one who can save me With eyes aged along with history I can't pretend that something else would convey me To live one day without the thought of you and me Carry on through the night It's a mess we've made too many times I spend my days avoiding light Lose my view of what you mean to me Careful now, you've come too close to know the where and when of your unholy ghost And even though we are made of dust A sliver of gold is inside each of us So put your weight on top of it Lay into moments that you compliment Fragile feasting lion Taking a bite of what he never tasted Yet he never feared Sermons of an anchor It's such a delicate race I promised my mother I would end in a righteous place So put your weight on top of it 03. Angel Of Alien Lost inside my head (Save my place in heaven) Goodbyes sink like lead (Pierced, ripped and falling) More than a dream I'm awake in my sleep You know I'm longing for you The same longing I need Pushing away every turn there's no reaction I see everything you believed was incomplete This is not what I thought it would be When you came back around Came back so carelessly So carelessly Lost inside my head (Save my place in heaven) Goodbyes sink like lead (Pierced, ripped and falling) More than a dream I'm awake in my sleep You know I'm longing for you The same longing I need (Heartless machine) Built to destroy me (Negative being) Angel or alien? Moments make me feel connected Make me feel like I'm an addict Our paths don't match Guarding what was had Love was nothing but our history Lost inside my head (Save my place in heaven) Goodbyes sink like lead (Pierced, ripped and falling) More than a dream I'm awake in my sleep You know I'm longing for you The same longing I need (We tried - we were not speaking) (We lied - there was no reason) Sometimes I needed control of my spirit and my soul Those are possessions of mine They are not leaving I thought you wanted to see If I feel - if I bleed We tried but it was for all the wrong reasons You always needed control No matter what would unfold We tried but it was for all the wrong reasons Lost inside my head (Save my place in heaven) Goodbyes sink like lead (Pierced, ripped and falling) More than a dream I'm awake in my sleep You know I'm longing for you The same longing I need 04. Waves Let it unfold Open your heart and let the truth be told Rewrite the past and let the truth be known You're so animated when I'm wrong Torn into pieces my life didn't connect with your fantasy Troubles produce the utmost disrespect, when you cut me out of your life Magic comes once in a lifetime, the voice inside your head said it was time Unfold let the truth be told 'Cause you were never there when I was lost in my head Rewrite the past and let the truth unfold Let it unfold Open your heart and let the truth be told You were never there, when I was lost in my head Let it unfold Open your heart and let the truth be told Rewrite the past and let the truth be known You were never there, when I was lost in my head Prescribe the antidote I'm a memory lost in the sea of deceit (Of deceit) Waiting for the waves to bury me The future was looking grim, we saw the light start to decay I took my head out of the darkness, saw a new path laid right in front of my feet Unfold, let the truth be told 'Cause you were never there, when I was lost in my head Rewrite the past and let the truth unfold Let it unfold Open your heart and let the truth be told You were never there, when I was lost in my head Let it unfold Open your heart and let the truth be told Rewrite the past and let the truth be known Magic comes once in a lifetime You were never there, when I was lost in my head Rewrite the past and let the truth be known 05. Oathbreaker Deep down the layers are fading You were my Oathbreaker Deep down the layers are fading (Fading) You were my Oathbreaker Kill me more (For the experience) Craft your skill and test your will And kill me more (Kill me more) Abandoned homes on baron fields Unholy nights, inhuman fears So fuck the water, a never-ending drought Pour more desire straight into hostility Caved in 'Cause deep down, we're divided Beliefs are dissolving (Deep down I'm waiting) Cast out in fear, life will go on The past will fade out The world has made it clear This is the end of an age Disappointed, unsatisfied Grasping for an answer we both can't find Existence isn't easy when we're both lost inside A fading story, dreams run dry Disgraced with the sound for what it was Silent shadow, silent devil, keeper in doubt Evil rising, grabbing what it wants You'll stay numb Your lying tongue will fool no one Beliefs are dissolving (Deep down I'm waiting) Cast out in fear, life will go on The past will fade out The world has made it clear This is the end of an age Deep down the layers are fading You were my Oathbreaker Deep down the layers are fading (Fading) You were my, you were my Oathbreaker Crawling in our graves The endless ways of old Will leave me rotten, rancid, decomposed Broken ground awaits For my infected flesh Into this void, my damnation laid to rest My damnation laid to rest 06. Threat Of Your Presence In this light transposed and out of sync I survived but it's getting harder for me to leave If only for a second you could see The damages and recklessness that you've perceived Unstable minds intersect and don't comply A secondary motive was in play, miscalculated and in disarray Witness the threat of your presence (Of your presence) Witness the threat of your presence Outside a different mind Before the afterlife I was aching for freedom I was feeding my demons Outside a different mind Before the afterlife I was aching for freedom I was feeding my demons Ripped apart by chaos, overturned by the masses An ominous network seeping in your conscience Into a digitized lie, the more it advances the less we're alive In this light we are transposed Say that you miss me Say that there's hope However uneasy I filled in this distance Tell me why Outside a different mind Before the afterlife I was aching for freedom I was feeding my demons Outside a different mind Before the afterlife I was aching for freedom I was feeding my demons In this light we are transposed Say that you miss me Say that there's hope However uneasy I filled in this distance Tell me why Witness the threat of your presence Witness the threat of your presence (Of your presence) If only for a second you could see 07. Love Story All this time I've been longing for a love story Where the melody can complete me In a way I always wanted, but I never knew before I seem to, to forget I am always set Set up for disaster Only I, I know why I love to exist in this piss A lifelong fiction The satisfaction fleeting This underlying treason Sirens blare up in my head One for pleasure, one for pain A side of the story we always knew We were perfect together Despite the truth All this time I've been longing for a love story Where the melody can complete me In a way I always wanted, but I never knew before You said we could make it And now we're just faking The reasons we can't continue Now, we should break it Your smile is fading Pressure is caving into one night, one time Stay sharp, I'll die One night, one time Stay sharp, I'll die Calling out, seeking deliverance It's all on me, but I can't pull through Bring me back my all-out ambition Sirens blare up in my head One for pleasure, one for pain A side of the story, we always knew We were perfect together Despite the truth All this time I've been longing for a love story In a way I always wanted, but I never knew before Now I'm awake, so throw me out Always pretending, never ascending Throw me out I can agree, that no one is perfect Throw me out 08. Crossface Cross out the ones that try to hold on and you can't relate to I'm not the one to make you realize the complications What's at stake here? I tried so hard to forget the way You will remain here, the way you reject everything I am The same excuses you've given me before They've got us nowhere and I still can't ignore The way you reject everything I am Now it's too late for you to accept me the way I am Crossed out when you came into my way Your intentions are deflected All you want is to feed off the weak Take them down where no one succeeds The strangest things always seem to rearrange me When will you see we can't contain what we've been facing I can see nothing will save me Say goodbye and liberate me We can't contain what we've been facing So now we know who's in control Fill in the cracks on this ride, never coming back Say what you will, it's still your guilt What's at stake here? I tried so hard to forget the way You will remain here, the way you reject everything I am The same excuses you've given me before They've got us nowhere and I still can't ignore The way you reject everything I am Now it's too late for you to accept me the way I am Back down to the venomous highway Just a reason is all I needed Can you feel that you feed off the weak? Heard the words but not explained to me The strangest things always seem to rearrange me When will you see we can't contain what we've been facing Now it's time to disengage I can see that nothing will save me You crossed the line, now pay the price Say goodbye and liberate me Now it's time to disengage 09. Echobreather Descend into the realm you came from No one will find you there Disappear without a trace You need to go back, just admit it to me You walked on sacred lands Now denied by the keeper's hand Defile your name Send you back from whence you came As the story grows, can we survive? When the night begins We're lost inside the cold moonlight Void of an answer Reconcile with the evil inside you I'll remind you it doesn't define you Stop running, stop hiding You're a hollowed shell of a human (Starry eyed) poorly casted, raised in captive (Sinful mind) shortly after a masquerade You walked on sacred lands Now denied by the keeper's hand Defile your name Send you back from whence you came As the story grows, can we survive? When the night begins We're lost inside the cold moonlight Void of an answer Oh great faith you've abandoned me Awaken from this fantasy (As the story grows, can we survive?) (We're lost inside the cold moonlight) As the story grows, can we survive? When the night begins We're lost inside the cold moonlight Void of an answer Forced me to shed my old beliefs Beyond a faded memory So far away 10. Lost Souls I am a wrathful, dreadful, sorry soul Keep me close And sell me whole to the devil Return from God Trade up and bow Lost Souls abandoned Reasons I never loved you You remain to retain the ones you connect with Reasons you never get ahead We believed in the way we trusted our patience This will break me, but I deserve it While I'm alive I know the truth, but you remain to Just live a lie I tried for this, died for this Too many times As long as it takes to keep you away Don't see me as your Victim on a string Ignore the reasons, explore the feeling As if one day I'd betray my sanity For anger, sorrow, heartache and pain This will break me, but I deserve it While I'm alive I know the truth, but you remain to Just live a lie I tried for this, died for this Too many times As long as it takes to keep you away Don't see me as your Victim on a string Don't run away, this is the last time Don't be afraid, I will be out of mind Don't run away, this is the last time Don't be afraid I am a wrathful, dreadful, sorry soul Keep me close And sell me whole to the devil Return from God Trade up and bow Lost Souls abandoned 11. In For The Kill This connection has disconnected me My skin and body fucking question me Waiting to feel the sting of my cold reality The more I absorb this shit the less I feel I kept my faith, but you won't even hear me out It's so basic This is our race, but you won't even stick around Still try and take my place I kept my faith, but you won't even hear me out You curb my joy My dreams are meaningless (Go ahead) Rip my heart and soul from within me Where to go on this open road Lost my way and lost everything I know Rip my heart and soul from within me When a man sells his soul to the gallows He leaves what is real, he trades in his steel There's no art, there's no love There's no balance Pride in the field, going in for the kill So basic This is our race, but you won't even stick around Still try and take my place I kept my faith, but you won't even hear me out Where to go on this open road Lost my way and lost everything I know Rip my heart and soul from within me Find the truth on this never-ending journey Keep it underground, never let it show Rip my heart and soul from within me 12. You Are The Narrative Reinvent me Wake me up from this state Of which I know I'm meant to be You cause all of this pain I can't erase I was told to stay away Couldn't seem to find that version of me Didn't try to make a change For something new to take its place Reinvent me Wake me up from this state Of which I know I'm meant to be You cause all of this pain I can't erase Reinvent me Time to take chances, for too long You've let this go Now I need answers, so tell me What do you know? If you sow the same seed And yield the same waste People still stay hungry You'll just feed a dead mouth If you sow the same seed And yield the same waste People still stay hungry You'll just feed a dead mouth The cryptic lines you always spout I try to block them out You are, you are the narrative You are, you are the narrative Maybe I've told you The wrong idea Don't let me ruin What you hold dear You are, you are the narrative You are, you are the narrative You are, you are the narrative You are, you are the narrative... 13. Truth And Denial I lie straight to my face Feeling like an empty windowpane My eyes dried, locked, and wiped clean I try not to hate myself I lie straight to my face Feeling like an empty windowpane My eyes dried, locked, and wiped clean I try not to hate myself Both sides on me Stay right or bleed Difficult to see Where I've come from And where I belong Face what's gone What went wrong A plan to kill I've waited too long Hearts change sealed and incased Where I am is where I should be I lie straight to my face Feeling like an empty windowpane My eyes dried, locked, and wiped clean I try not to hate myself I lie straight to my face Feeling like an empty windowpane My eyes dried, locked, and wiped clean I try not to hate myself I'll have my peace Both sides on me What's still obtaining my justice Of calm effort Trust us The light in the wall still shines It carries me out to my own kind A balance we've danced from the first to the last time From the first to the last time Jump to conclusions Run stay elusive I play out the matters of truth and denial Dumbed down and loosely Intrusive and truly escaping a foolish will of desire Step through, through a maze of deception A start can always be the ending I lie straight to my face Feeling like an empty windowpane My eyes dried, locked, and wiped clean I try not to hate myself I lie straight to my face Feeling like an empty windowpane My eyes dried, locked, and wiped clean I try not to hate myself 14. Shadowmourne The shift with my acceptance My failure in a box Coaxing a dream of my image paradox Kindly unscrew a belief that you found With the pages so loud I try and snuff my soul out Caught by the fire To light up the world and remain Stop bringing yourself down Living in pain 'Cause I'm dreaming of you But I'm screaming at me Slowdown I keep losing my way Find out who I keep pushing away It's so hard to believe It's so hard to believe in myself Boredom blessed Selfish, upset all the rest I can get Bound by force bones start to break These wounds won't heal A direction a phase such lone security It sings me awake while it sings me to sleep Devil in the flesh so wretched and so vile I know I'll be burning if only for a while Caught by the fire To light up the world and remain Stop bringing yourself down Living in pain 'Cause I'm dreaming of you But I'm screaming at me Slowdown I keep losing my way Find out who I keep pushing away It's so hard to believe It's so hard to believe in myself The pain is normal The pain is where we relate I can't keep living I won't be at this rate The pain is normal The pain is where we relate And I can't be so afraid Afraid of change Caught by the fire To light up the world and remain Stop bringing yourself down Living in pain 'Cause I'm dreaming of you But I'm screaming at me Slowdown I keep losing my way Find out who I keep pushing away It's so hard to believe It's so hard to believe in myself
