World Of Hurt. The debut concept album from the Four Skulls. The story of a young mans journey through the hell of warfare.
Maybe
(Bryan & Pack)
"My future as I'd seen it, had been molded in my mind as long as I can remember. She and I were seldom apart, and we talked of our future together as if it had been carefully illustrated for us by a grand artisan. Things we planned on doing, places we were to visit and explore. The family we would raise. Then, the announcement came that changed our lives forever."
I've always been, where I want to be
Every day without end
Can this last for me, I'll have to wait and see
Coming up is my past
I've always known, who I want to be
Every minute is mine
Can you last for me, we'll have to wait and see
Every day without end
Maybe
They will know my name
I know I must leave this place
My life's not the same
Maybe
I'll make it back someday
Time without you I must face
Maybe
They will know my name
I know I must leave this place
My life's not the same
Maybe
I'll make it back someday
Time without you I must face
Maybe
You will know my name
In your memory I'll stay
After our lives change
Maybe
When I go away
You'll see me another day
World Of Hurt
(Bryan & Pack)
"They have thrust me in a world far, far away. The task at hand is simple. Kill or be killed."
I think that I know where I am
A world of hurt, is where I stand
It's me now, stuck in no man's land
Would you please lend me a hand
Ground to plane
And then the sky
Looking over
Where I'll live or die
World, world of hurt
Hurting me
This world of hurt
World, world of hurt
Can’t it be
This world of hurt
Where in the world am I
This is where I will fucking stand
A world of hurt, is where I am
It's me now, ruling the bad lands
Havoc made, with my bare hands
Sky to ground
And then the fight
Bloody Day
And bloody night
World, world of hurt
Hurting me
This world of hurt
World, world of hurt
Cant it be
This world of hurt
Ground to plane
And then the sky
Looking over
Where I'll live or die
World, world of hurt
Hurting me
This world of hurt
World, world of hurt
Cant it be
This world of hurt
Where in the world am I
Holding On
(Bryan & Pack)
"My entire platoon is dead. How I survived is perplexing to say the least. It seems like I've lain here for days hoping the end will come for me as well. But I must keep moving. My destiny still lies ahead."
Holding on, for dear life
Try to see, what's wrong or right
Holding on, can't let go
If I die alone, no one will know
I'll get back up, I'll be alright
It's all that I can do
I'll get back up, I'll stand and fight
Or my life is through
Holding on, for all I know
Try to figure out, which way to go
Holding on, for all I get
I can say, I'm not dead yet
I'll get back up, I'll be alright
It's all that I can do
I'll get back up, day or night
There's nothing fucking new
I'll get back up, I'll be alright
It's all that I can do
I'll get back up, I'll stand and fight
Or my life is through
Holding On, holding on for all I know
Holding On, never going to let it go
Holding On, holding on to my dear soul
Holding On
Rolling endless and out of control
The ride of this life keeps me holding on
Holding on, for what I don't know
My dear life, it is my own
Holding On, holding on for all I know
Holding On, never going to let it go
Holding On, holding on to my dear soul
Holding On
Still endless and out of control
The ride of my life
Where it stops I don't know
I'm getting off
Cause I can't hold on
Warrior Abound
(Bryan & Pack)
"Reinvigorated and better focused, I must rejoin my brothers. One problem, where the hell are they?"
I'm not sure if I know
Just where to be
Up and down and all around
It's the same to me
I know, I know
Nothing looks the same
Walking lost and not found
Again today
Hey hey hey yeah
Yeah, heh heh
Look around and I've found
Where I need to be
Countrymen in this as well
Such a sight to see
I know, they know
Just how far I've came
I live to fight by their side
Another day
Hey hey hey yeah
Yeah, heh heh
Roaming warrior's found your city
You best not stand in my way
Roaming warrior's got one thing on his mind
All the time, every day
Whether friend or foe
I don't really care
I'll shoot you dead on sight
That's why they sent me here
Yeah, heh heh, eYeah
Roaming warrior's found your city
You best not stand in my way
Roaming warrior's got one thing on his mind
All the time, every day
Why
(Bryan & Pack)
"The war is over. What now? How do I continue after what I've been through?"
I don't want to live like this
But I can't seem to die
More needles and cocaine
And yet I'm still alive
I want to leave this place
But I can't go back home
Trained killer in the real world
Doomed to exist alone, alone
Don't, know, why
I'm still alive
Drugs in my veins, I
Don't, know, why
I'm still alive
End all the pain, pain
So many tried to kill me
But no one could succeed
Can die by my own hand
Sometimes I feel that's what I need
I don't want to live no more
I'm in all of this rage
Might as well end it now
Put me in my grave, my grave
Don't, know, why
I'm still alive
Drugs in my veins, I
Don't, know, why
I'm still alive
End all the pain, pain
Mind Made For Me
(Bryan & Pack)
"In just a short amount of time since arriving at boot camp, my mind has been forever reprogrammed. I rarely think of home or the friends and family I have left behind. Only the job that lies before me occupies my thoughts and the savagery they have awakened."
Training day has come and gone away
My mind is geared to send you to your grave
All I know is I can live or die today
I use my skills your soul is mine to slay
Ahh, Training
To be a bad guy
No second thought or regret
And a mindset to forget
I am Training
To be a tough guy
Gonna send you straight to hell
Cause a bad guys trained me well
When you die, my mind and soul forgets
No image haunting me from the time of your death
Ahh, Training
To be a bad guy
No second thought or regret
And a mindset to forget
I am Training
To be a tough guy
Gonna send you straight to hell
Cause a bad guys trained me well
Training day has come and gone away
My mind is geared to send you to your grave
Ahh, Training
To be a bad guy
No second thought or regret
And a mindset to forget
I am Training
To be a tough guy
Gonna send you straight to hell
Cause a bad guys trained me well
Not Dead Yet
(Bryan & Pack)
"Sitting in this foxhole feels like being strapped to an electric chair, patiently waiting for the electrons to start flowing. Any moment, the bombardment will commence and there is no choice but to face it head on."
I'm in a hole
I'm not dead yet
Waiting to kill someone
That I've never met
He's coming at me
Gotta shoot to kill
Time to fight not die
You know I will, you know I will
I’m in a hole
Not dead yet
I keep shooting
Not dead yet
I keep killing
This hole is my home
I pray it's not my grave
My life is the only one
That I need to save
There's nowhere to run
There is no retreat
Shoot that mother fucker now
Watch him die at my feet, die at my feet
I’m in a hole
Not dead yet
I keep shooting
Not dead yet
I keep killing
Bodies on the ground
But it's not me
That's all that I smell
I have to kill, so many
Just to stay alive
Living For Hope
(Bryan & Pack)
"It's been five days since I've been wondering the countryside, seemingly going in circles. Finally, I see smoke and hear friendly voices in the distance."
I'm so hungry but I feel no fear
I see people and their town
Rest my weapon and my head for a while
The thought of eating makes me smile
Happy that I'm living on
Today is not my last
Happy that I'm living on
Today's my past
Who knows what the future will bring
I hope I'm in it for sure
Thank you people for saving me
What helps me tomorrow we'll see
Happy that I'm living on
Today is not my last
Happy that I'm living on
Today's my past
Hey, I'm living for hope
I'm gonna hope to live
I'm gonna live to keep my hope
Hey, I'm living for hope
I'm gonna fight to live
I'm gonna kill to keep my soul
I'm gonna hope to live
I'm gonna live to keep my hope
Hey, I'm living for hope
I'm gonna hope to live
I'm gonna live to keep my hope
Hey, I'm living for hope
I'm gonna hope to live
I'm gonna live to keep my hope
I'm gonna fight to live
I'm gonna kill to keep my soul
I'm gonna hope to live
I'm gonna fight to live
I'm gonna live to keep my hope
I'm gonna kill to keep my soul
Fight Die Bleed
(Bryan & Pack)
"The war's end is in sight. Annihilate the enemy at all costs. I will not be denied."
When it's said and done you'll see it my way
Free to fight and live another day
When it's done I say I'll make you go away
The choice is yours to live another day
I win again, I'll always win
Fight, Die, Bleed
There's no other way
Fight, Die, Bleed
The end of you today
The battle rages burning out of control
Bullets fly to claim another soul
Their force is breaking as they all fall down
More dead faces plunge into the ground
I win again, I'll always win
Fight, Die, Bleed
There's no other way
Fight, Die, Bleed
The end of you today
Now it's said and done you've seen it my way
Live to fight and free another day
All is done I say and I'll never go away
You're choice is gone to live another day
I'll always win, you lose again
Fight, Die, Bleed
There's no other way
Fight, Die, Bleed
The end of you today/Your soul is mine to slay
1000 Souls
(Bryan & Miller)
"My time has come. There is no escape from the sins I've commited."
There's a war in my head
A fear in my soul
Now that I'm twisted
And out of control
Can't close my eyes
Can't bear the light
Knowing the end
Is coming tonight
Those that I've killed
And put in their grave
Seeing my end
Is something they crave
A thousand souls
Screaming at me
Will their god
Have mercy on me
I Must Die
