1. In Your Shadow
2. Devils On Both Sides
3. Evil's Rising
4. Voice Of Prejudice







1. In Your Shadow

In Your Shadow
(Skinner)

I’m biting my tongue again, always ignored
Maybe it’s a blessing in disguise
Settled for second best, no reward
And I wasn’t one to steal the spotlight

I want what is mine
Here’s where I draw the line

Don’t speak, breathe or say a word, that’s life in your shadow
Don’t speak, breathe or say a word, that’s life in your shadow

Always right by your side, never was fair
How you kept me out of the picture
I missed my chance to shine, not that you care
I’ve proven I’m the better actor now

I want what is mine
Here’s where I draw the line

Don’t speak, breathe or say a word, that’s life in your shadow
Don’t speak, breathe or say a word, that’s life in your shadow

I wanted to be heard
I wanted to be
I wanted to be seen
But I, was in your shadow

I’m barely clinging to
My last thread of sanity
This I swear to you
No longer will you silence me

Standing on the sidelines
Knowing all along the glory should be mine
One chance to outshine
And now it seems I’m running out of time
As envy turns to violence
One last attempt to gain what should be mine

Don’t speak, breathe or say a word, that’s life in your shadow
Don’t speak, breathe or say a word, that’s life in your shadow
Don’t speak, breathe or say a word, that’s life in your shadow
Don’t speak, breathe or say a word, that’s life in your shadow

-End-




2. Devils On Both Sides

Devils on Both Sides
(Skinner)

Don’t hate me
Instead step back and see
Or try looking
Through my eyes
No halos, no wings to fly
A faded rainbow lost in time

Just another shining example
Of what not to say
I don’t understand quite what happened
I never planned it out this way

I’m not a sinner, just my conscience, doesn’t seem to serve me well
My temper, and my violence; really what is there to tell?

Don’t hate me, you’re in for one hell of a ride, don’t hate me
God save me, I’ve got devils on both sides, God save me
Don’t hate me, you’re in for one hell of a ride, don’t hate me
Got devils on both sides

I’m not one for conversation
In fact I hate about everyone
A product of my own frustration
Just look at what I’ve become

I’m not a sinner, just my conscience, doesn’t seem to serve me well
My temper, and my violence; really what is there to tell?

No control

I’m not a sinner, just my conscience, doesn’t seem to serve me well
My temper, and my violence; really what is there to tell?

Don’t hate me, you’re in for one hell of a ride, don’t hate me
God save me, I’ve got devils on both sides, God save me
Don’t hate me, you’re in for one hell of a ride, don’t hate me
God save me, I’ve got devils on both sides, God save me
Devil’s on both sides

-End-




3. Evil's Rising

Evil’s Rising
(Skinner)

Just beneath the surface in every man lies a beast
A sleeping demon stirred quite easily knows no peace

Out of the blue the clarity fades away
The animal starts to wake
Every resemblance of a man is torn away
Say the wrong thing, press my buttons and we’re on our way

The rage is growing
A primal instinct
Can’t stop my hands shaking
Evil’s rising

With a scream so fierce all I know is I see red
A shadow of my former self overflowing with hatred

Out of the blue the clarity fades away
The animal starts to wake
Every resemblance of a man is torn away
Say the wrong thing, press my buttons and we’re on our way

The rage is growing
A primal instinct
Can’t stop my hands shaking
Evil’s rising

I can see the fear taking hold of you
No longer the person you once knew

A restless presence once thought dormant is now unleashed
The horrible thought that I may go too far is guaranteed

Out of the blue the clarity fades away
The animal starts to wake
Every resemblance of a man is torn away
Say the wrong thing, press my buttons and we’re on our way

The rage is growing
A primal instinct
Can’t stop my hands shaking
Evil’s rising
The rage is growing
A primal instinct
Can’t stop my hands shaking
Evil’s rising

I can see the fear taking hold of you
No longer the person you once knew

-End-




4. Voice Of Prejudice

Voice of Prejudice
(Skinner)

Your perceptions of me are misguided
Well I think it was time you were enlightened

Try looking again with an open mind
You’ll find I’m so much more
You say you’ve already stated your opinion
The voice of prejudice wins in the end

No, I, will not listen, your opinion, one sided, close-minded, a predetermined lie

Why can’t you believe a different point of view?
Or should I be biased just like you

Try looking again with an open mind
You’ll find I’m so much more
You say you’ve already stated your opinion
The voice of prejudice wins in the end

Now I’m, laughing at your ignorance, now I’m…
Now I’m, moving past intolerance

No, I, will not listen, your opinion, one sided, close-minded, a predetermined lie

Why can’t you come to terms with the truth?
I am the same if not better than you

Try looking again with an open mind
You’ll find I’m so much more
You say you’ve already stated your opinion
The voice of prejudice wins in the end
Mindset firm on your preconceived flawed decision
The voice of prejudice wins in the end
Once again, prejudice wins

-End-
