The kingdom of god
is inside you and all around you.
Not in a mansion of wood and stone
Split a piece of wood and god is there
Lift a stone and you will find god

Here we go
Holding onto lies, holding onto ties that vanished
Cut the rope
And fall into the sky, the devil filled our minds with sadness

The world's a gun and I've been aiming all my life
Got something to live for, I know that I won't surrender
A warrior of youth
I'm taking over, a shot to the new world order
I Am Bulletproof

Here I go
Another prison flight, another perfect sky I damaged
Now I know
Just who created life and why I set my sights to save it

The world's a gun and I've been aiming all my life
Got something to live for, I know that I won't surrender
A warrior of youth
I'm taking over, a shot to the new world order
I Am Bulletproof

And as they take their final breath, I have built the truth
I'm taking over a shot to the new world order
I Am Bulletproof

Got something to live for, I know that I won't surrender
A warrior of youth
I'm taking over, a shot to the new world order
I Am Bulletproof

Got something to live for, I know that I won't surrender
A warrior of youth
I'm taking over, a shot to the new world order
I Am Bulletproof

All the graves of the ones remembered in a desert we call home
All the slaves of the cold December find a voice to call their
own
Stand up we are united in the eyes of the greatest storm
Line up we are ignited, this world will be reborn in...

Five, Four, Three, Two, One
This is New Years Day- so rise from the ashes
Faith will find a way- like lightning crashes
We'll keep marching on and on and on...
It's New Years Day, so rise from the ashes

Ring a bell so the serpent hears us
Let her know that we're tried and true
No the beasts, they wont get near us... and we're not scared of
you
Light 'em up now
Start the countdown in...

Five, Four, Three, Two, One
(Let's go!)
This is New Years Day- so rise from the ashes
Faith will find a way- like lightning crashes
We'll keep marching on and on and on...
It's New Years Day, so rise from the ashes

Let the eagle fly
Freedom in the night
Let the eagle fly
Legends never die

Five, Four, Three, Two, One
This is New Years Day- so rise from the ashes
Faith will find a way- like lightning crashes
We'll keep marching on and on and on...
It's New Years Day, so rise from the ashes

So rise from the ashes


4.F. E. A. R. Transmission 1:Stay Close

Lyricist:Black Veil Brides
Writer(s):Black Veil Brides

We expect the battle for humanity is about to begin
Within each uprising, a fake sense of safety will ignite in you,
and unseen shadow will slip from doubt
Towards those who protect, and defend you
But let the thoughts slip away, and remain calm, stay close to
F.E.A.R. only we can protect

I am the innocent
I am what could have been
The dreams you talk about,
Now left on broken skin
Here lies hysteria,
A land where chaos reigns
Global Disturbia,
Bows down to twisted ways.

A world of hate awaits
We are The Wild Ones
They all look the same
Our time has come

I am the chosen,
Wretched and Divine
I am the unspoken,
The one they left behind
Fearless, fight until we die
I am broken
The Wretched and Divine

I am the Devil's smile,
The one caught everyday
A hopeful hero's speech
Won't stop the years you bleed
I am a hurricane,
And Army strong as one
As they sit back and laugh
The one you left has just begun

A world of hate awaits
We are The Wild Ones
They all look the same
Our time has come

I am the chosen,
Wretched and Divine
I am the unspoken,
The one they left behind
Fearless, fight until we die
I am broken
The Wretched and Divine

We live for broken hearts,
Won't watch them fall apart
We live for the ones
Who don't know they exist
We die for endless winter,
Beginner and the sinner
We die for the ones
Who raise their hands to resist

I am the chosen,
Wretched and Divine
I am the unspoken,
The one they left behind
Fearless, fight until we die
I am broken
The Wretched and Divine

Ferguson/Jake Pitts

The gates of heaven were locked shut
The pits of hell they were all filled up
And I fear I don't belong here
Yeah
They might call me a sinner
A walking flame from the fire that burns
Disappear, you don't belong here
Yeah

The church of fear
The church of failure
The church of fools
So call me a nothing
Call me a something
Treat me cruel

Hey!
Whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
We don't belong here, we don't belong
Whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
We don't belong here
It's the anthem of the underground
So get back up when they push you down
We're singing
Whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
We don't belong here, we don't belong
(We don't belong, we don't belong, we don't belong)

Who can here give a march of the rejects
Line up a parade of the defects
Can I hear we don't belong here

So rise from the darkness
Eyes of the dismissed
Hearts of the used
Show me your worst
Show me your cursed
Tell me the truth

Whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
We don't belong here, we don't belong
Whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
We don't belong here
It's the anthem of the underground
So get back up when they push you down
We're singing
Whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
We don't belong here, we don't belong

(Whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh oh)
The gates of heaven were locked shut
The pits of hell they were all filled up
And I fear I don't belong here
(Whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh oh)

Whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
We don't belong here, we don't belong
Whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
We don't belong here
It's the anthem of the underground
So get back up when they push you down
We're singing
Whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
We don't belong here, we don't belong

When you're alone
We don't belong
I don't belong

Lyricist:Black Veil Brides
Writer(s):Black Veil Brides

The rebels claim their brave new world is upon us.
Do not be fooled by the chicanery in which they lay their claim.
It is false, and their uprising will not succeed
You will place your trust in F.E.A.R.
You must!

Ferguson/Jake Pitts

You've been running for so long, still breathing,
Hoping soon to find a song worth singing,
Every chapter of this note, they're reading,
But you're slowly losing hope on bleeding.

I'll carry you, my darkest desire,
When life sings to you, Through Devil's Choirs,
F.E.A.R won't steal what burns in you,
I'll carry you away from the fire.
My desire, Devil's Choirs.
My desire, Devil's Choirs.

Raise another broken glass to failure,
A simple promise of a crimson saviour,
Take a look into the life you're leaving,
I promise you this isn't pain you're feeling.

I'll carry you, my darkest desire,
When life sings to you, Through Devil's Choirs,
F.E.A.R won't steal what burns in you,
I'll carry you away from the fire.
My desire, Devil's Choirs.
My desire, Devil's Choirs


9.Resurrect The Sun

Lyricist:John Feldman/Andy Biersack/Jeremy Ferguson/Jake Pitts
Writer(s):John Feldman/Andy Biersack/Jeremy Ferguson/Jake Pitts

I hear it in the echoes
The night is close
The years of my sinning
Teach me to show
Under this feeling
Of pain and regret
These wounds were open
Like lines in the sand
The world is sleeping
But they still have hope so

I pray for morning, I swear I'll never let you die.
These saints within us, can bring us more than back to life.
And my hearts held high with this battlecry emotioooon.
I'm not arising anymooooore.
Resurrect the sun.

For the darkness
Has broken our homes
All that we'd wish for
Like fools on a rope
I can feel it
The desperate control
A burning passion
When love takes it's toll
You're told to have a reason
But I won't let goooooo!

I pray for morning, I swear I'll never let you die.
These saints within us, can bring us more than back to life.
And my hearts held high with this battlecry emotioooon.
I'm not arising anymooore.
Resurrect the sun, sun, sun.
Resurrect the sun, sun, sun.
Resurrect the suuuuuuuuuunnn.

The world is sleeping
But they still have hope, soooo.

I pray for morning, I swear I'll never let you die.
These saints within us, can bring this moment back to life.
And my hearts held high with this battlecry emotioooooon.
I'm not arising anymoooooore.
Resurrect the sun, sun, sun.
Resurrect the sun, sun, sun.
Resurrect the sun, sun, sun
Resurrect the sun, sun, sun
Resurrect the sun.

11.Shadows Die

Lyricist:John Feldman/Andy Biersack/Jeremy Ferguson/Jake Pitts
Writer(s):John Feldman/Andy Biersack/Jeremy Ferguson/Jake Pitts

Tear down the cross
Splinters and shards, remember
This trojan horse
Woe to the land we enter

We'll burn away
And free our fallen brothers
From shadow's reign
Lost here and bought on soldiers

Yeah!

Let shadows die
So I can feel alive
The church of lies
Can't tell me what is right

All of your victories and dies what you won
Let shadows die
So I can feel alive
Feel alive

I feel alive, yeah

In fearing fame
The kingdom's lion freedom
The days and nights
We live this war of wisdom

The streets are stained
With blood that ran their kingdom
And feed the beast
Then lies beneath our treason

Let shadows die
So I can feel alive
The church of lies
Can't tell me what is right

All of your victories and dies what you won
Let shadows die
So I can feel alive
Feel alive

FEAR round up these rebels
These deviants, these so-called Wild Ones
We will lecture the streets where they're found
And annihilate the dangerous
And the truths ideas poisoned your children
Endangering your freedom
Giving rise to the destruction
And the benevolent future we have prepared for you
You belong to the shadows
The shadows are where you will remain safe
Do not disobey

Let shadows die
So I can feel alive
The church of lies
Can't tell me what is right

All of your victories and dies what you won
Let shadows die
So I can feel alive
Feel alive

(I feel alive)

Wow!
Before your life is over, know this to be true
All the hate we hold inside still won't save your youth
Don't waste your time on tragedy, easy to forget
Time that's lost and armies fought are worth the price to live

One day at a time, one day at a time
Listen when we're calling
Your time has arrived
Our days are numbered in the world of fools
We feel the hunger and follow no one's rules
Everybody wants eternal life and nobody can seem to get it right
Whoa!
Our days are numbered and you're no fool, nobody's fool

Our memory ships the gospel that they preach to you
Living like a demon, a burden left to prove
You can live your life in heaven or create your hell
We will rise our angry souls with every tale we tell

One day at a time, one day at a time
Listen when we're calling
Your time has arrived
Our days are numbered in the world of fools
We feel the hunger and follow no one's rules
Everybody wants eternal life, nobody can seem to get it right
Whoa!
Our days are numbered and you're no fool, nobody's fool

Ha-ha!

These steps we take to be feeling so good, life is yours
Reduce and take like this feeling is yours, like it's yours

Our days are numbered in the world of fools
We feel the hunger and follow no one's rules
Everybody wants eternal life, nobody can seem to get it right
Whoa!
Our days are numbered and you're no fool, nobody's fool
Nobody's fool
I'm nobody's fool


14.Done For You

Lyricist:John Feldman/Andy Biersack
Writer(s):John Feldman/Andy Biersack

The best things in life
Come with a price
The star that burned so bright faded the fastest
You'll always feel it's right
Even when we end the fight
Welcome home, home tonight

Singing ohhh, ohhh
Welcome home tonight
Ohhh ohh, tonight

Words they don't know how to make amends
And all they do is push you to the edge
But it's not wasted

It's all done for you
(Oh ohhh)
It's all done for you
(Oh ohhh)
It's all done for you
(Oh ohhh)
It's all done for you
Oh ohh

Oh ohh

I'll die fighting,
Inside me there's a fire that burns
(woah)
My life began
And ends without the faith that we lost
(woah)

Save me from the darkest places
Save me from myself

I'm a loaded gun
A lonely sun
But I'm nobody's hero
I've come undone
I'm on the run
Yeah, I'm nobody's hero
Nobody's hero

To heal, your scars
I will give you everything I can
(woah)
this war, of heart
We will rise again and take a stand
(woah)

I cant leave you to salvation
Yeah, I am just a mess

I'm a loaded gun,
A lonely sun,
But I'm nobody's hero
I've come undone
I'm on the run
Yeah, I'm nobody's hero
Nobody's hero

(nobody's hero)

This heart has crossed
It's too heavy to exist
(woah)
We feel lost
With the lives I left to pain

(c'mon)

I'm a loaded gun
A lonely sun
But I'm nobody's hero
I've come undone
I'm on the run
Yeah, I'm nobody's hero
Nobody's hero

I'm a loaded gun
A lonely sun
But I'm nobody's hero
I've come undone
I'm on the run
Yeah, I'm nobody's hero

Writer(s):John Feldman/Martin Johnson/Andy Biersack/Ashley Purdy/Jeremy
Ferguson/Jake Pitts

I ruled the world, with these hands.
I shook the heavens to the ground,
I laid the gods to rest.
I held the key to the kingdom lions,
Guarding castle walls
I tail the king of the death

Then I lost it all
Dead and broken
My back's against the wall
Cut me open
I'm just trying to breathe
'Just trying to figure it out' I said
Then I lost it all
Who can save me now?

I stood above, another war
Another jewel upon the crown.
I was the fear of man
But I was blind, I couldn't see
The world right there, in front of me
But now I can... (Yeah)

Cuz' I lost it all,
Dead and broken,
My back's against the wall,
Cut me open
I'm just trying to breathe
'Just trying to figure it out' I said
Then I lost it all
Who can save me now?

I believe that we all fall down sometimes
Can't you see that we all fall down sometimes?


17.F. E. A. R. Transmission 3:As War Fades

Lyricist:Black Veil Brides
Writer(s):Black Veil Brides

We are not interested in the possibility of defeat. Not within
the silence
Of a deserted ally, nor the clamor of a crowded street. F.E.A.R.
can not be
Vanquished, we can not be destroyed. F.E.A.R. will rise up again
and
Control the masses, take back the power and crush the insurgent
hoard. As
War fades in to the distant memories of enlightened pigs and
open wounds,
Rebels will begin to perish - one by one, it should. Feel the
fear of dying
Young, not ignore the chance to scream. Lie awake at night in
terror,
Admitting F.E.A.R. will return to glory and the story of Rebels
who set out
To conquer will finish.

But, (In the End begins)

In The End as you fade into the night
In The End as you fade into the night
Woah oh
Who will tell the story of your life


In The End
As my souls laid to rest
What is left of my body
Or am I just a shell
And I have fought
And with flesh and blood I command an Army
Through it all I have given my heart for a moment of glory


In The End as you fade into the night
Woah oh oh
Who will tell the story of your life
Woah oh oh
And who will remember your last goodbye
WOAH OH
Cause its the end
And Im not afraid
I'm not afraid to die


I'm not afraid,i'm not afraid to die


Born a saint
But with every sin I still want to be holy
I will live again
Who we are
Isn't how we live we are more than our bodies
If I fall I will rise back up and relive my glory


In The End as you fade into the night
Woah oh oh
Who will tell the story of your life
Woah oh oh
And who will remember your last goodbye
WOAH OH OH
Cause It's The End
And I'm not afraid
I'm not afraid to die


In The End as you fade into the night
Woah oh oh
Who will tell the story of your life
Woah oh oh
And who will remember your last goodbye
WOAH OH OH
Cause It's The End
And I'm not afraid
I'm not afraid to die


Who will remember this last goodbye
Cause It's The End
And I'm not afraid
I'm not afraid to die


Not Afraid
Not Afraid to die
Not Afraid
Not Afraid to die!


19.F. E. A. R:Final Transmission

Lyricist:Black Veil Brides
Writer(s):Black Veil Brides

This is to be our final transmission
The rebels have defeated our lustrious armys
They have damaged our intention of ugly an difient milevelance
All that we love and care for will sink
And the abis into the new dark age
Made more sinister
And perhaps more protractive
By the light of preverted science and rebellion
The whole root and heavy core
Will perish and starve in captivity
You will never win your freedom
You cannot escape... F.E.A.R
