Kill Me 03:11
A dried out skull in the desert sun I'd like to call that place my home And when you held me, then well I never felt like I had to run The weight of my shoulders were held By you, an Atlas trying to hold my hell I admit I was afraid to take a step "Well what if it all fell?" I see the shadows inside me Why did you try to light them up? As if the burning stars above me Weren't hot enough to burn my heart "Kill Me! I don't want to hurt you Or be the only man who Ever made you feel like you belong I can't trust what I am Please just understand I want to do whats best for you." I breathe in -- breathe out. I breathe in -- breathe out. Please, don't tell me the truth. Oh, Please, Shiro, don't tell the truth. I don't want to hear it "Keith, please listen--" I don't need to hear it "I'm begging you to listen--" I don't want to know the truth "I can't be around like this--" I don't want to be afraid of you! "I'm asking you please -- Kill Me! I don't want to hurt you Or be the only man who Ever made you feel like you belonged But I can't trust what I am Please just understand I want to do whats best for you."

Now that I have you and own you, your eyes are my own. No one will know that the man that they trust is now gone. I will plan all of my moves Based around what they plan and Sabotage any Intentions I am the virus that settled inside of the nest They haven't killed me so you will help me do the rest Destroy them from the inside. You have no control of What you are how you act Don't forget, Kuron, you're mine! What is going on inside my head? Who is the person I have become instead? Treading on red waters, with no cover, as it hovers Weighting on my shoulders, getting colder as it burns Trying to keep calm, play along and I won't falter Everything goes wrong, and then everybody learns -- You won't raise suspicions! You were made to listen! Please tell me you're noticing -- Fine, say what you want to! There's nothing they can do! I feel like I'm someone else -- Once they realize it! It's too late to stop it! Maybe I'm wrong -- it's nothing -- Yes, its nothing after all! Your downfall! It's weird but i thought I felt It's like there is someone inside my brain Always holding the reigns Oh I feel like nothing's changed There is something that's estranged. Lance, I think there's something wrong If you've felt it please be strong I need you to watch me close What comes next I don't know If you have to, pull the trigger, don't hesitate. If you have to, pull the trigger, don't hesitate. If you have to, pull the trigger, don't hesitate. This might have to be the end for me!

Clone Theory 04:53
Gnaw my tongue out, Kill your soul With this knife I have up to your throat Beginning of the end, I don't know who I am At this time, I think I understand LET'S GO! Not a thing has moved But something stirs inside me As if my being is new And a parasite is feeding Am I lying? Am I fake? I don't believe but who's to say? There's a woman in my head And what she says is terrifying. "Kill them all; Destroy them all. Tear their throats out; heed my call I have your eyes, I have your arms I'll force the knife that you have drawn. Make them suffer; Make them weep The price for defiance is steep Save my empire; take them out They're your enemies now." Gnaw my tongue out, Kill your soul With this knife I have up to your throat Beginning of the end, I don't know who I am At this time, I think I understand. Kill them all; destroy them all. Tear their throats out; heed her call She has my eyes, She has my arms She'll force the knife that I have drawn. I don't wanna suffer; I don't want them to die Why can't I stop the voices inside? Is the only way out of this to kill? Is it my own blood I must spill? Gnaw my tongue out, Kill your soul With this knife I have up to your throat Beginning of the end, I don't know who I am At this time, I think I understand. My flesh is false. My heart it stalls! My brains poisoned with homicidal thoughts The line was drawn and there I crossed What could be seen makes my skin crawl. What sort of leader would I be If I didn't tear this out of me? Although my life was never fair There's no future that I can see. Fear rules every move I make I'll damage you until you break And decimate all of you It's not a risk that you can take. The night is cursed, my thoughts they stir All rationale starts to blur Lance you have to end this blight I'm a clone, this is what's right. I'll say bye, forever. He'll be back -- I'll never.

Make Me Gone 03:55
I think you're mistaken, Cause this arms a weapon It could be so easy to -- My eyes aren't mine But who's behind? I don't want to guess who -- I'm not who you think Please, believe me 'Cause I'm telling you -- The Shiro you knew Is so far from you I'm not sure what I am But I know... I... Sleeper agent or not, I'm capable of thought. But I'm terrified for you, So do what you have to, Sleeper agent or not I'm capable of thought In this battle I must lose You can kill me if you have to. If you need to, make me gone. If you have to, it's not wrong. If you need to, make me gone. Let me remind you stay strong. Living is a dream I can't believe I was never meant to last -- Like a fly on the wall Used to hear it all If you don't you kill me she will. I'm crying out If you hear me shout Know it's for the best -- If I'm alive, Then I must die! The fate of the universe rests... In the hands of people like you. Sleeper agent or not, I'm capable of thought. But I'm terrified for you, So do what you have to, Sleeper agent or not I'm capable of thought In this battle I must lose You can kill me if you have to. If you need to, make me gone. If you have to, it's not wrong. If you need to, make me gone. Let me remind you stay strong.

So Long 04:23
I wish this was a dream I don't know what to do, I want to scream I'll make sure it hurts When I tear you from the seams Are you breathing? Will you be okay? I can't control myself and I can't stay I know what i am, and it hurts to be spoken I'm the sleeper agent and I've awoken. I pull my hand from your neck I can't stop the woman in my head I could kill you in your sleep, my friend It would be better if I was dead Are you breathing? Will you be okay? I can't control myself and I can't stay Tears rain down my face. So what can I say? I wish there was another way! One day you'll find the real man who shares the face I do. Somewhere out there. He's in another land. I'm crying, I didn't want to die this soon! You're doing great, Lance And Keith, I love you too. You have your family, Pidge. And I'm so proud of you. You'll find your way, Hunk Allura, you're so strong Coran, you're still the man I guess this is so long.

You Found Me 05:28
We were just kids then It's funny isn't it? Throughout it all I held on to you, I wanted to save you. We were just kids when You were blades and storms then And not once did I think bad of it I'd always cherish it. I never thought that I would see The savior here was you not me. You found me. I died, and you didn't back down Still believing I could be found. Well, You found me. We were just kids when I took you in. Not once did I imagine What could have happened We can't be kids, then. But I imagine The universe is safe and I'm in your arms and... You found me. I never thought that I would see The savior here was you not me. You found me. I died, and you didn't back down Still believing I could be found Well, You found me.
