Oh Santa,
I been waiting on you.

Santa:
That's funny kid,
Because I've been coming for you.

Oh Santa,
I been killing just for fun.

Santa:
Well the party's over kid,
Because I...
Because I got a bullet in my gun!

A bullet in your what?!

Santa's got a bullet in his gun
You know it
Santa's got a bullet in his gun

Don't shoot me Santa Clause!
I've been a clean living boy.
I promise you,
Did every little thing you asked me too.
I can't believe the things I'm going through.
Don't shoot me Santa Clause!
For no one else around believes me.
For the children on the block they tease me,
And I couldn't let 'em off that easy.

Oh Santa,
It's been a real hard year.

Santa:
There just ain't no getting around this,
Life is hard, but look at me I turned out alright.

Hey Santa, why don't we talk about it?
Work it out?

Santa:
Believe me, this ain't what I wanted.
I love all you kids, you know that.
Hell I remember when you were just 10 years old,
Playing out there in that desert, just waiting for a sip of that sweet mojave rain.

In the sweet mojave rain,
The boy was on his own.

Don't shoot me Santa Clause!
I've been a clean living boy.
I promise you,
Did every little thing you asked me too.
I can't believe the things I'm going through.
Hey Santa Clause!
No one else around believes me.
The children on the block they tease me,
And I couldn't let 'em off that easy.

They had it coming so why can't you see?
I couldn't turn my cheek no longer.
The sun is going down, Christmas is near.
Just look the other way and I'll disappear forever.

Don't shoot me Santa Clause!
No one else around believes me.
The children on the block they tease me,
And I couldn't let 'em off that easy.

Believe me Santa.

Change my attempt good intentions

Crouched over
You were not there
Living in fear
But signs were not really that scarce
Obvious tears
But I will not
Hide you through this
I want you to help
And please see
The bleeding heart perched on my shirt

Die, withdraw
Hide in cold sweat
Quivering lips
Ignore remorse
Naming a kid, living wasteland
This time you've tried
All that you can turning you red

Change my attempt good intentions
Should I, could I
Here we are with your obsession
Should I, could I

Crowned hopeless
The article read living wasteland
This time you've tried
All that you can turning you red
but I will not
Hide you through this
I want you to help

Change my attempt good intentions
Should I, could I

Here we are with your obsession
Should I, could I

Heave the silver hollow sliver
Piercing through another victim
Turn and tremble be judgmental
Ignorant to all the symbols
Blind the face with beauty paste
Eventually you'll one day know

Change my attempt good intentions
Limbs tied, skin tight
Self inflicted his perdition

Should I, could I
Change my attempt good intentions
Should I, could I

Chill, light on my sight as my ego becomes
A funky child with some words on my tongue
Be like intake of breath and my mouth gets loose
So while I scatter my spit, I dream of juice
Have you ever made out in dark hallways
Displayed a kiss that made your day or say
Played a track from your record collection
It's your mix, congratulations

We've changed a lot and then some, some
You know that we have always been down, down
If I ever didn't thank you, you
Then just let me do it now

I bet you light up when we start the show
Follow me now very closely 'cuz I told you so
You know, we glow because we throw sun rays
Yeah we be freaky and we wanna stay

We've changed a lot and then some, some
You know that we have always been down, down
If I ever didn't thank you, you
Then just let me do it now

Lightning strikes, yo we be in that violent force of light
Guaranteed to turn it out as bad as dolemite
Because we're dope kid, change like a chameleon
And the channel whenever the wack show Real World is on
You know we dazzle like ghetto box boomin' battles
Rattle inside your head feel redeemed like cola bottles
Fall in love with your teachers, on the wax we are self made
Check the technique, 311 in L.A.

We've changed a lot and then some, some
You know that we've always been down, down
If I ever didn't thank you, you
Then just let me do it now

Keep my feet on the ground
Keep my head in the clouds
Electrified by the sound
Comes from the down, and
We've changed a lot and then some, some
You know that we've always been down, down
If I ever didn't thank you, you
Then just let me do it now

Well, I took a walk around the world
To ease my troubled mind
I left my body lying somewhere
In the sands of time
Well, I watched the world float
To the dark side of the moon
I feel there's nothin' I can do
Yeah

I watched the world float
To the dark side of the moon
After all, I knew it had to be somethin'
To do with you
I really don't mind what happens now and then
As long as you'll be my friend at the end

If I go crazy
Then will you still call me Superman
If I'm alive and well
Will you be there holdin' my hand
I'll keep you by my side with
My superhuman might
Kryptonite

You called me strong
You called me weak
But still your secrets I will keep
You took for granted all the times
I never let you down
You stumbled in and bumped your head
If not for me, then you'd be dead
I picked you up and put you
Back on solid ground

If I go crazy
Then will you still call me Superman
If I'm alive and well
Will you be there holdin' my hand
I'll keep you by my side with
My superhuman might
Kryptonite

Na na na na whoa whoa

If I go crazy
Then will you still call me Superman
If I'm alive and well
Will you be there
Holdin' my hand
I'll keep you by my side with
My superhuman might
Kryptonite
Yeah

If I go crazy
Then will you still call me Superman
If I'm alive and well
Will you be there holdin' my hand
I'll keep you by my side with
My superhuman might
Kryptonite

Whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa

Breathe in right away, nothing seems
to fill this place
I need this every time, take your
lies get off my case
Some day I will find, a love that flows
Through me like this
This will fall away, this will fall away
You're getting closer, to pushing me
Off of life's little edge
Cause I'm a loser and sooner or later
You know I'll be dead
You're getting closer, you're holding the
Rope and I'm taking the fall
Cause I'm a loser, I'm a loser, yeah

This is getting old, I can't break these
Chains that I hold
My body's growing cold, there's nothin
Left of this mind or my soul
Addiction needs a pacifier, the buzz of
This poison is taking me higher
This will fall away, this will fall away

You're getting closer, to pushing me
Off of life's little edge
Cause I'm a loser and sooner or later
You know I'll be dead
You're getting closer, you're holding
the rope and I'm taking the fall
Cause I'm a loser, I'm a loser!

You're getting closer, to pushing me
Off of life's little edge
Cause I'm a loser and sooner or later
You know I'll be dead
You're getting closer, you're holding
the rope and I'm taking the fall
Cause I'm a loser!

You're getting closer, to pushing me
Off of life's little edge
Cause I'm a loser and sooner or later
You know I'll be dead
You're getting closer, you're holding
the rope and I'm taking the fall
Cause I'm a loser!

Behold the suffering unspeakable in death
And the abominations of the earth;
Its desolation turns,
And now there is no life in her ...

Behold the pale horse ...
With fire in its eyes, with murder its rides,
Behold the grave sword ...
It slays in violent horror, it preys in war ...

Behold the scales of famine tear the flesh of men,
And harvest all the bodies of the dead;
The lifeless continents
Are lined beneath the carcasses ...

Behold the pale horse ...
And death be not proud, and life be not found.
Behold the plague comes,
And the haunting epidemic - infectious - has begun ...

Behold the horrifying evidence,
The sequence of prophetic events,
The escalation fate ascends,
The darkest hour lies ahead ...

Behold a pale horse ...
And hell follow thee; in darkness it feeds,
Behold, the unseen world
Of Hades arise ... burning in time ...

Behold, the fourth seal
Is broken; it is revealed ...
Behind the face of God;
In the silence of heaven concealed;

The seventh seal ...

You're such an inspiration for the ways that I will never ever choose to be
Oh, so many ways for me to show you how your Savior has abandoned you

F*** your God
Your Lord, your Christ
He did this
Took all you had and
Left you this way
Still you pray, never stray, never
Taste all the fruit
Never thought to question "Why?"

It's not like you killed someone
It's not like you drove a hateful spear into his side
Praise the one who left you broken down and paralyzed
He did it all for you
He did it all for you

Oh, so many ways for me to show you how your dogma has abandoned you
Pray
To your Christ, to your God
Never taste all the fruit
Never stray, never break, never
Choke on a lie
Even though he's the one who
Did this to you
Never thought to question "Why?"

It's not like you killed someone
It's not like you drove a spiteful spear into his side
Talk to Jesus Christ as if he knows the reasons why
He did it all for you
He did it all for you
He did it all for you

Dí la verdad
Lo que necesito que me des no me lo vas a dar
Dimelo ya
Para qué voy a esperar a lo que nunca va a llegar

Mi alma solo para tí
Es lo que tu sueles decir
¿Porque entonces me siento solo cuando estas aquí?

Dime de quien es el trozo de tu corazón que no puedo tener
Dime porqué por más que lo estuve intentando nunca lo encontré

Lo tengo escondido en el mar
Para que no puedas llegar
Para que te ahogues cansado de tanto nadar

No voy a ir
Lo que tu me pides nadie se lo puede permitir

No voy a ir
Me voy a quedar en casa acordándome de ti

Si tú no te quieres venir
Pues mucho peor para ti
Seguro que alguien entrega su vida por mí

Si tu no me quieres tampoco te quiero yo a tí

Bury me softly in this womb
I give this part of me for you
Sand rains down and here I sit
Holding rare flowers
In a tomb, in bloom

Down in a hole, and I don't know if I can be saved
See my heart, I decorate it like a grave
You don't understand who they thought I was supposed to be
Look at me now, a man Who won't let himself be

Down in a hole
Feeling so small
Down in a hole
Losing my soul
I'd like to fly
But my wings have been so denied

Down in a hole, and they've put all the stones in their place
I've eaten the sun so my tongue has been burned of the taste
I have been guilty of kicking myself in the teeth
I will speak no more of my feelings beneath

Down in a hole
Feeling so small
Down in a hole
Losing my soul
I'd like to fly
But my wings have been so denied

Bury me softly in this womb
(Oh I want to be inside of you)
I give this part of me for you
(Oh I want to be inside of you)
Sand rains down and here I sit
Holding rare flowers
(Oh I want to be inside of you)
In a tomb
(Oh I want to be inside)

Down in a hole
Feeling so small
Down in a hole
Losing my soul
Down in a hole
Feeling so small
Down in a hole
Out of control
I'd like to fly
But my wings have been so denied

Yeah, it goes away
All of this and more of nothing in my life
No colored clay
Individuality not safe

As of now I bet you got me wrong
So unsure you run from something strong

I can't let go
Threadbare tapestry unwinding slow
Feel a tortured brain
Show your belly like you want me to

As of now I bet you got me wrong
So unsure we reach for something

Strong, I haven't felt like this in so long
Wrong, in a sense too far gone from love
That don't last forever
Somethings gotta turn out right

You sugar taste
Sweetness doesn't often touch my face
Stay if you please
You may not be here when I leave

As of now I bet you got me wrong
So unsure we reach for something strong

Strong, I haven't felt like this in so long
Wrong, in a sense too far gone from love
Strong, I haven't felt like this in so long
Wrong, in a sense too far gone from love
That don't last forever
Somethings gotta turn out right

Be what you wanna be
See what you came to see
Been what you wanna be
I don't like what I see

Like the coldest winter chill
Heaven beside you, hell within
Like the coldest winter chill
Heaven beside you, hell within
Like the coldest winter will
Heaven beside you, hell within
And you think you have it still, heaven inside you

So there's problems in your life
That's f***ed up, and I'm not blind
I'm just see through faded, super jaded
And out of my mind

Do what you wanna do
Go out and seek your truth
When I'm down and blue
Rather be me than you

Like the coldest winter chill
Heaven beside you, hell within
Like the coldest winter chill
Heaven beside you, hell within
Like the coldest winter will
Heaven beside you, hell within
And you wish you had it still, heaven inside you

So there's problems in your life
That's f***ed up, and I'm not blind
I'm just see through faded, super jaded
And out of my mind

Like the coldest winter chill
Heaven beside you, hell within
Like the coldest winter chill
Heaven beside you, hell within
Like the coldest winter will
Heaven beside you, hell within
And you know you have it still, heaven inside you

So there's problems in your life
That's f***ed up, but you're not blind
You're just see through faded, overrated
And out of your mind

I am iron, God!
Ooh!
Oh
Oh
Erah
Iron
Oow!
Red Rum

Yeah, hey yeah
I want to travel south this year
I won't prevent safe passage here

Why you act crazy, not an act maybe
So close a lady, shifty eyes shady

Yeah, hey yeah
Tears that soak a callous heart

Why you act frightened, I am enlightened
Your weakness builds me, so someday you'll see

I stay away!

Why you act crazy, not an act maybe
So close a lady, shifty eyes shady

I stay away!
I stay away!
I stay away!
I stay away!

I'm the man in the box
Buried in my s***
Won't you come and save me, save me

Feed my eyes, can you sew them shut?
Jesus Christ, deny your maker
He who tries, will be wasted
Feed my eyes now you've sewn them shut

I'm the dog who gets beat
Shove my nose in s***
Won't you come and save me, save me

Feed my eyes, can you sew them shut?
Jesus Christ, deny your maker
He who tries, will be wasted
Feed my eyes now you've sewn them shut

It's all right
There comes a time
Got no patience
To search for peace of mind

Layin' low
Wanna take it slow
No more hiding
Or disguising truths I've sold

Everyday
Something hits me all so cold
Ya find me sittin' by myself
No excuses that I know

It's okay
Had a bad day
Hands are bruised from
Breakin' rocks all day

Drained and blue
I bleed for you
Ya think it's funny
Well you're drownin' in it too

Everyday
Something hits me all so cold
Find me sittin' by myself
No excuses that I know

Yeah, it's fine
Walk down the line
Leave our rain
A cold trade for warm sunshine

You my friend
I will defend
And if we change
Well I love you anyway

Everyday
Something hits me all so cold
Ya find me sittin' by myself
No excuses that I know

Ain't found a way to kill me yet
Eyes burn with stinging sweat
Seems every path leads me to nowhere, mmm
Wife and kids household pet
Army green was no safe bet
The bullets scream to me from somewhere, mmm

Here they come to snuff the rooster, oh yeah
Yeah here come the rooster, yeah
You know he ain't gonna die
No, no, no oh, you know he ain't gonna die

Here they come to snuff the rooster, oh yeah
Yeah here come the rooster, yeah
You know he ain't gonna die, oh
No, no, no oh, you know he ain't gonna die

Walkin' tall machine gun men
They spit on me in my home land
Gloria sent me pictures of my boy, mmm
Got my pills 'gainst mosquito death
My buddy's breathing his dyin' breath
Oh God please won't you help me make it through

Here they come to snuff the rooster, oh yeah
Yeah here come the rooster, yeah
You know he ain't gonna die
No, no, no oh, you know he ain't gonna die

Just another lesson learned
Wear a scar, a bore repeating
Take a simple fateful turn
Opened up to stop the bleeding

Feeling like you never could
Been the disconnected frying
Hit the vein and struck a nerve
Seeing through a self that's blinding

Nowhere to buy in
Most of us hiding
Others are shining

Just another brick you toss
Stone the number one deceiver
Multiply the added cost
Easy to become a believer

Feeling like you never could
Been the disconnected frying
Hit the vein and struck a nerve
Seeing through a self that's blinding

Nowhere to buy in
Most of us hiding
Others are shining

You know when you find it
In your darkest hour, you strike gold
A thought clicks, not the be-all end-all

You know when you find it
In your darkest hour, you strike gold
A thought clicks, not the be-all end-all

Just another lesson learned...

You know when you find it
In your darkest hour, you strike gold
A thought clicks, not the be-all end-all

You know when you find it
In your darkest hour, you strike gold
A thought clicks, not the be-all end-all

Just another lesson learned...
Just another lesson learned...

I believe, them bones are me
Some say, we're born into the grave

I feel so alone, gonna end up
A big old pile of them bones

Dust rise, right on over my time
Empty, fossil of the new scene

I feel so alone, gonna end up
A big old pile of them bones

Toll due, bad dream come true
I lie, dead gone under red sky

I feel so alone, gonna end up
A big old pile of them -
I feel so alone, gonna end up
A big old pile of them -
I feel so alone, gonna end up
A big old pile of them bones

OoooooooOh!

I've had my share of one-night-stands
And I've seen it all
But you've got a hold on me
Right against the wall

Over the edge
You've got me
Over the edge
Head over heels

Over the edge
Over the edge

I never thought I'd see the day
When I would want you there
But nobody ever made me feel
The way when you call

Over the edge
You've got me
Over the edge
Head over heels

Over the edge
Over the edge

Over the edge
You've got me
Over the edge
Head over heels

Over the edge
Over the edge

I'm over the edge
I'm over the edge
Over the edge
Over the edge
Over the edge
Now I'm over the edge
Over the edge
Over the edge
Over the edge
Over the edge
Over the edge
Over the edge
I'm over the edge
Over the edge

As he came into the window
It was the sound of
A crescendo
He came into her apartment
He left the bloodstains on
The carpet
She was sitting at the table
He could see she was unable
So she ran into the bedroom
She was struck down, it was
Her doom

Annie, are you okay

Sounding heartbeats -
Intimidations

What is all this? The question I am asking
It's not what is I feel like I was promised

This hurts, this leaves a lasting laceration
I can't believe that this is what my faith was for

The scars remain
Reminds of pain
The scars remain

When I see you, I see scars that are matching
When I see you, I see scars that are matching
I know what I'm feeling, you are feeling scars remaining through
When I see you, I see scars

My feet will sink in this quicksand around me
Unless something or someone comes to save me

This hurts, this leaves a lasting laceration
I can't believe that this is what my faith was for

The scars remain
Reminds of pain
The scars remain

When I see you, I see scars that are matching
When I see you, I see scars that are matching
I know what I'm feeling, you are feeling scars remaining through
When I see you, I see scars that are matching

When I see you, I see scars that are matching
When I see you, I see scars that are matching
I know what I'm feeling, you are feeling scars remaining through
When I see you, I see scars that are matching

I. The Rover(Instrumental)


It was an April morning
When they told us we should go
And as I turn to you you smiled at me
How could we say no?
With all the fun to have
To live the dreams we always had
Woah the songs to sing
When we at last return again, yeah
Oh
Oh

Sending off a glancing kiss
To those who claim they know
To know the streets the seaman hears
The devil in his hole
Oh to sail away
To sandy lands and other days
Oh to touch the dream
Hides inside and never seen, yeah
Oh
Ooh

Into the sun the south the north
Lies the first of hope
Shackles of commitment fell
In pieces on the ground
Oh to ride the wind
To tread the air above the din
Oh to laugh aloud
Dancing as we fought the crowd, yeah
Oh oooh

To seek the man whose pointing hand
The giant step unfolds
With guidance from the curving path
That churns up into stone
If one bell should ring
In celebration for a king
So fast the heart should beat
As proud the head with heavy feet, yeah
Ooooh

Oh, yeah


Oh, yeah
Here we go
Wanted to know, oh, oh
Sing out hare, hare, oh
Dance the hoochie koo
The city lights
Oh so bright
As we go sliding
Sliding, sliding, sliding
Through
Oooh
Oooh
Oh, all right

And you neglected I called you out don't please
I said we're stronger than this now
You resurrected mistakes years passed it seemed
And they exist to still haunt you

And still you feel like the loneliness
Is better replaced by this
I don't believe it this way
And I can see the fear in your eyes
I've seen it materialize
Growing stronger each day

I could see it as you turned to stone
Still clearly I can hear you say
Don't leave, don't give up on me
Two weeks and you ran away
I remember don't lie to me
You couldn't see that it was not that way
Swear I never gave up on you

I wanted nothing but for that trust again
And brick by brick you would take it
You feared of phantoms and none exist but you
You still saw fit to destroy it

And still you feel like the loneliness
Is better replaced by this
I don't believe it this way
And I can see the fear in your eyes
I've seen it materialize
Growing stronger each day

I could see it as you turned to stone
Still clearly I can hear you say
Don't leave don't give up on me
Two weeks and you ran away
I remember don't lie to me
You couldn't see that it was not that way
Swear I never gave up on you

And you neglected I called you out don't please
I said we're stronger than this now
You feared of phantoms and none exist but you
You still saw fit to destroy it

And I can see the fear in your eyes
I've seen it materialize
Growing stronger each day

I could see it as you turned to stone
Still clearly I can hear you say
Don't leave don't give up on me
Two weeks you ran away


I could see it as you turned to stone
Still clearly I can hear you say
Don't leave don't give up on me
Two weeks and you ran away
I remember don't lie to me
You couldn't see that it was not that way
Swear I never gave up on you

I could see it as you turned to stone
Still clearly I can hear you say
Don't leave don't give up on me
Two weeks and you ran away
I remember don't lie to me
You couldn't see that it was not that way
Swear I never gave up on you

lead me around
nurse my broken wing
with all the promises
you can never honor
I just dont care enough
to react to vain attempts
sent only to perpetuate
one's selfish little world
you wont see what ive become
youll wait and watch and still
youre only let down
a violent reaction
struggling only to keep myself alive
now here I stand
for nothing no one at all
I lead you down
begging to touch you in the cold
you give me a reason
I will not be the one
through all the nonsense
there is a constant
you wont see what ive become
youll wait and watch and still
youre only let down
cause this feeling
has dawned the face of you
a violent reaction
struggling only to keep myself alive
you wont see what ive become
cause this feeling
has dawned the face of you
a violent reaction
struggling only to keep myself alive

The Northern wind brings snow and ice
Humans starve and freeze
The Fimbul winter has arrived
And soon the world will cease to be

Brother will be brother's bane
No one shall be spared
All will die. None remain
That is mankind's share

The southern sphere is set ablaze
Muspel's fire is set free
The sun is on its final chase
And soon the world will cease to be

Across the western sky he runs
A wolf so grim and mean
Devours the eternal sun
And soon the world will cease to be

The North Star falls from the sky
Into the deep cold sea
The first of all to fall and die
And soon the world will cease to be

Muspel's flames lick the sky
Hidh'gg eats the dead
The Aesir meet in hall up high
And Oden 'quests Mimer's head

Land is swallowed by the waves
Rocks and mountains break
Dead men on the path to Hell
And Yggdrasil quakes

From the East comes a ship
Loke holds the oar
A demon army with swords that rip
Will join the final war

The army of the dead arrives
Heimdal blows his horn
Calling Gods out to die
Before the world can be reborn

We've had some good we've had some bad but mostly in-between
Used words like love words like hate and words we didn't mean

We've put it down we've patched it up we both have had our say

Divorce ain't black divorce ain't white just a sad ole shade of gray

Neither one of us was always right neither one was always strong
We never put I love you in the place where it belonged

When one was up the other was down and love can't grow that way

Divorce ain't black divorce ain't white just a sad ole shade of gray

You'll find a love to take my place and I'll find me someone

For when it's all been said and done more was said than done

So you take yours and I'll take mine

We'll go our seperate ways

Divorce ain't black divorce ain't white just a sad ole shade of gray
Divorce ain't black divorce ain't white just a sad ole shade of gray

I try to make it through my life
In my way
There's you
I try to make it through these lies
That's all I do

Just don't deny it
Don't try to fight this
And deal with it
That's just part of it

If you were dead or still alive
I don't care
I don't care
Just go and leave this all behind
Cause I swear (I swear!)
I don't care
I don't care

I try to make you see my side
I always try to stay in line
But your eyes see right through
That's all they do
I'm getting buried in this place
I've got no room
You're in my face
Don't say anything
Just go away

If you were dead or still alive
I don't care
I don't care
Just go and leave this all behind
Cause I swear (I swear!)
I don't care

I'm not changing everything
If you won't be there for me
I'm not changing everything
If you won't be there for me

[Piano Solo]

If you were dead or still alive
I don't care
I don't care
Just go and leave this all behind
Cause I swear (I swear!)
I don't care

If you were dead or still alive
I don't care
I don't care
Just go and leave this all behind!
I don't care (I swear!)
I don't care

At all...

Dirty little secret
Dirty little lies
Say your prayers and comb your hair
Save your soul tonight

Drift among the faithful
Bury your desires
Aberrations fill your head
You need a place to hide
And I am

Do you remember me?
And the kid I used to be?
Do you remember me?


I want to be there (Your God is looking down on me)
I'm not Jesus, Jesus wasn't there
You confess it all away
But it's only s*** to me(Your God is looking down on me)
I'm not Jesus, I will not forgive
No, I won't,
No, I won't
I thought you were a good man
I thought you talked to God
You hippocratic, messianic
Child abusing-turned-satanic

Do you remember me?
Do you remember me?
And the kid I used to be?
Do you remember?
Do you remember?


Let me be the one to say (Your God is looking down on me)
I'm not Jesus — You can't run away
And the innocent you spoiled find your way to live (Your God is looking down on me)
I'm not Jesus, I will not forgive
I will not forgive,
I won't do whatever you want to. (x2)

Do you remember me?
And the kid I used to be?
Not the same as I used to be?
Oh, do you remember my name?


I want to be there (Your God is looking down on me)
I'm not Jesus, Jesus wasn't fair
You confess it all away
But it's only s*** to me(Your God is looking down on me)
I'm not Jesus, I will not forgive
No, I won't,
No, I won't

I tell myself that I don't love you
I tell myself that you're not good for me
Your eyes are green, grey, blue, whatever
But I don't look at them
And I don't look at you
I tell myself that I don't want you
I tell myself that you're not what you seem
And we could never be together
I'm just not into you
But I know that's a

Lie lie lie

I'm unaware of who why what you are
The world it don't revolve around you
But you expect it to
Oh Baby, wouldn't you?
I tell myself
That I don't need another boy like you
You're the cause of all the stupid things that I do
And love, It just don't last forever
And I Don't want it to
But I know that's a

Lugosi's child bears his namesake
Within in this monument we hide from shame, from uncontrolled emotions and untold atrocities
Be enlightened lonely angel
We're forever with you
And the blind one came in the likeness of you
And the blind one came to make timeless all that is you
Behind the walls of the is monument
Your tribute to deceit
All time is lost to the innocent
Your evil they must repeat

And then I remembered the magic,
forgot that you can't plan it.
It's always there in front of us
just trust and it happens.
And the star dust from the universe of this planet
I just get stressed when I try to understand it.

And I remember the magic,
forgot that you can't plan it.
It's always there in front of us
just trust and it happens.
And the star dust from the universe of this planet
It's always there, you can't try to understand it.

Now, I don't know why this world is a trip
see, I just float by hoping that I can live.
With a pen I'm so high, using this medicine
I got a little bit of it to give
come on hear me now.
My momma says the trip inside of you gon' hear it child.
We all got it, if you want it gotta get it out.
I know you know what I'm talking about
See it's the music from the magic, got me on top of these clouds, come on
Keep it poppin' with my favorite song
There's no feeling like the city walking with my walkman on
It gets to me, giving me goosebumps and I'm gone,
and when I die just make sure that I got my pen and headphones on.

In good times and upsets,
rain, hail, beats, sand, heat, land, and a lot of damn sunsets.
They say that you can never capture the moment
photograph or record it, but I swear I can when I bump them.
As I bear witness to existence setting in the distance
For a sheer instance I become one with it
Dismeant up to ten when I listen like I was set on this mission
places I've been when I with them
I'm feeling the most high when I got my pen snd I'm scriptin'
No engines speakin as I enter religion.
No crosses, pews, prayers, or repentance for sinning
just the RCA jack, a sentence and a vision.

Inside of the gut, time with the cut, right from the plug
that feeling that goes right into us.
Instead of bump live, but with eyes wide
church you got some fire and a lighter on my fire and uh
depending on the month, sometimes I feel high with just pen and pad
if the gab, the light's within us.
I can apply my touch on the mic stand and bust
to the whole planet, and my headphones on

And to the magic
forgot that you can't plan it.
It's always there in front of us
just trust and it happens.
And the star dust from the universe of this planet
I just get stressed when I try to understand it

And I remember the magic,
forgot that you can't plan it.

just trust and it happens.
And the star dust from the universe of this planet
It's always there, you can't try to understand it.

(Speaking)
Have you ever done hallucinogenics?
Children don't get it twisted, I'm not reccomending.
(Rapping)
But it's not for brains and hippies and kids jumpin' off buildings
It can be spiritual epitamies and medicine.
Now I first tried shrooms when I was 16,
and the universe became more interesting.
I began to contemplate my place in this landscape
and reflect on what it meant to be a human being.
What I went through felt as though I dreamt it.
Through my experience, became aware of my breath, then
began to cultivate my art with the intention of the heart,
started to use my sentences as reflections.
And what I saw was God was in all of us and we all come to be interconnected.
And all that was depended on all of us
and had effects like a domino when you let it.
Go with the flow, that the universe holds.
Understand that there's more than you expected.
I don't do shrooms anymore 'cause I don't need to explore.
All that I was looking for was was the present.

And I remember the magic,
forgot that you can't plan it.
It's always there in front of us
just trust and it happens.
And the star dust from the universe of this planet
I just get stressed when I try to understand it.

And I remember the magic,

Am I insane?
I ask myself over and over and over again
Trapped in my brain
Pull it out from the threads in my skull
Am I alone?
Surrounded by shadows and I think I might just be suffocating
The devil came to take me to hell but I'm already there
Yeah!

Am I insane, am I insane, am I insane?
The devil came to take me to hell but I'm already there

I won't let you be the death of me
No, I refuse to let you bring me down
(Bring me down)
I won't let you make me out to be the one who's in the wrong
And I've lost my mind before
But now I'm back and I'm better than ever

Am I insane?
I roll myself over and scream 'til I'm spitting blood
Trapped in my brain!
The answers I seek are incomprehensible but it won't stop
Am I alone?
The voices grow fainter but they just won't f*cking go away
The devil came to take me to hell but I'm already there
Yeah!

Am I insane, am I insane, am I insane?
Am I alone, surrounded by death, I think this might just be the end
Am I insane, am I insane, am I insane
The devil came to take me to hell but I'm already there

You can't take this away from me
You can't relieve these demons
You can't make this okay for me
You're the one who caused these feelings
I apologize for what I'm about to do
I try to sympathize, but at the end of the day you brought this on yourself

I won't let you be the death of me
No, I refuse to let you bring me down
Bring me down
I won't let you make me out to be the one who's in the wrong
And I've lost my mind before
But now I'm back and I'm better than ever
Now I'm back and I'm better than ever

The tears have left a blur
That I can't explain
The pain has left a hole
In which my heart should have been

I'm blind with rage and I can't shake this feeling
Irrational, infectious, intemperate
I'm blind with rage and I can't shake this feeling
Irrational, infectious, intemperate

I won't let you be the death of me
I refuse to let you bring me down
Bring me down
I won't let you make me out to be the one who's in the wrong
I've lost my mind before
But now I'm back and I'm better than ever

Pearls and swine bereft of me
Long and weary my road has been
I was lost in the cities
Alone in the hills
No sorrow or pity for leaving I feel

I am not your rolling wheels
I am the highway
I am not your carpet ride
I am the sky

Friends and liars don't wait for me
'Cause I'll get on all by myself
I put millions of miles
Under my heels
And still too close to you
I feel

I am not your rolling wheels
I am the highway
I am not your carpet ride
I am the sky
I am not your blowing wind
I am the lightning
I am not your autumn moon
I am the night, night

I am not your rolling wheels
I am the highway
I am not your carpet ride
I am the sky
I am not your blowing wind
I am the lightning
I am not your autumn moon
I am the night, night
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

On a cold, wet
Afternoon
In a room full of emptiness
By a freeway
I confess I was lost in the pages
Of a book
Full of death
Reading how we'll die alone
And if we're good we'll lay to rest
Anywhere we want to go

In your house
I long to be
Room by room
Patiently
I'll wait for you there
Like a stone
I'll wait for you there
Alone

And on my death bed
I will pray
To the gods and the angels
Like a pagan
To anyone who will take me to heaven
To a place
I recall
I was there so long ago
The sky was bruised
The wine was bled
And there you led me on

In your house
I long to be
Room by room
Patiently
I'll wait for you there
Like a stone
I'll wait for you there
Alone
Alone

And on I read
Until the day was gone
And I sat in regret
Of all the things I've done
For all that I've blessed
And all that I've wronged
In dreams until my death
I will wander on

In your house
I long to be
Room by room
Patiently
I'll wait for you there
Like a stone
I'll wait for you there
Alone
Alone

Our love is like a new car smell
Sooner or later it all goes to hell
Somebody farts or spills some taco bell
Our love is like a new car smell

Our love is like a barbeque ignition
You know that button you push lights the propane emission
It works for a month then the spark goes missing
Our love is like a barbeque ignition

Our love is like a video game
That you play alot and then it gets lame
Then a new one comes out that's better but the same
Our love is like a video game

Our love..

Our love is like a surgical procedure
It's painful and invasive, your insurance won't cover
And when it's done you walk funny forever
Our love is like a surgical procedure

Our love is like a Meatloaf song
It has its moments but it's way too long
Like a bat outta hell it all goes wrong
Our love is like a Meatloaf song

Our love is like Keanu Reeves
Who's made some really bad movies
That's all time you can't retrieve
Our love is like Keanu Reeves

Our love..

Like walking into a dream, so unlike what you've seen,
So unsure but it seems, 'cause we've been waiting for you.
Fallen into this place, just giving you a small taste,
Of your afterlife here - so stay, you'll be back here soon anyway.

I see a distant light,
But girl this can't be right...
Such a surreal place to see,
So how did this come to be?
Arrived too early.

And when I think of all the places I just don't belong,
I've come to grips with life and realize this is going too far.

I don't belong here, we gotta move on, dear.
Escape from this afterlife,
'Cause this time I'm right, to move on and on,
far away from here!

Place of hope and no pain, perfect skies with no rain,
Can leave this place but refrain, 'cause we've been waiting for you.
Fallen into this place, just giving you a small taste,
of your afterlife here - so stay, you'll be back here soon anyway.

This peace on earth's not right, (with my back against the wall)
No pain or sign of time... (I'm much too young to fall)
So out of place, don't wanna stay,
I feel wrong and that's my sign.
I've made up my mind.

Give me your hand but realize I just wanna say goodbye.
Please understand I have to leave and carry on my own life.

I don't belong here, I gotta move on dear.
Escape from this afterlife,
'Cause this time I'm right, to move on and on,
Far away from here!
Got nothing against you and surely I'll miss you.
This place full of peace and light,
And I'd hoped you might, take me back inside
When the time is right!

Loved ones back home all crying 'cause they're already missing me.
I pray by the grace of God that there's somebody listening.
Give me a chance to be that person I wanna be.
(I am unbroken; I'm choking on this ecstasy!)
Oh Lord I'll try so hard but you gotta let go of me.
(Unbreak me, unchain me, I need another chance to live!)

I don't belong here, I gotta move on dear.
Escape from this afterlife,
'Cause this time I'm right, to move on and on,
Far away from here!
Got nothing against you and surely I'll miss you.
This place full of peace and light,
And I'd hoped you might, take me back inside
When the time is right!

I feel insane every single time
I'm asked to compromise
Cause I'm afraid and stuck in my ways
And that's the way it stays

So how long did I expect love
To out weigh ignorance
By that look on your face I may
Have forced the scale to tip

I'm not insane
I'm not insane
I'm not insane
I'm not, not insane

(Mother)
Come back to me
It's almost easy
(Said it all)
Come back again
It's almost easy

Shame pulses through my heart
From the things I've done to you
It's hard to face but the fact remains
That this is nothing new

I left you bound and tied
With suicidal memories
Selfish beneath the skin but
Deep inside I'm not insane

I'm not insane
I'm not insane
I'm not insane
I'm not, not insane

(Mother)
Come back to me
It's almost easy
(Said it all)
Come back again
It's almost easy
(You'll learn your lesson)
Come back to me
It's almost easy
(But first you fall)
Come back again
It's almost easy

Now that I've lost you
It kills me to say
(Hurts to say)
I've tried to hold on
As you've slowly slipped away
I'm losing the fight
I've treated you so wrong
Now let me make it right
(Make it alright)

I'm not insane
I'm not insane
I'm not insane
I'm not, not insane

(Mother)
Come back to me
It's almost easy
(Said it all)
Come back again
It's almost easy
(You'll learn your lesson)
Come back to me
It's almost easy
(But still you'll fall)
Come back again
It's almost easy

"He who makes a beast out of himself, gets rid of the pain of being a man"

Caught here in a fiery blaze, won't lose my will to stay
I tried to drive all through the night
The heat stroke ridden weather, the barren empty sights
No oasis here to see, the sand is singing deathless words to me

Can't you help me as I'm startin' to burn (all alone)
Too many doses and I'm starting to get an attraction
My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone)
No one can save me and you know I don't want the attention

As I adjust to my new sights the rarely tired lights will take me to new heights
My hand is on the trigger I'm ready to ignite
Tomorrow might not make it but everything's all right
Mental fiction, follow me; show me what it's like to be set free

Can't you help me as I'm startin' to burn (all alone)
Too many doses and I'm starting to get an attraction
My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone)
No one can save me and you know I don't want the attention

So sorry you're not here I've been sane too long my vision's so unclear
Now take a trip with me but don't be surprised when things aren't what they seem

Caught here in a fiery blaze, won't lose my will to stay
These eyes won't see the same, after I flip today

Sometimes I don't know why we'd rather live than die
We look up towards the sky for answers to our lives
We may get some solutions but most just pass us by
Don't want your absolution cause I can't make it right
I'll make a beast out of myself, gets rid of all the pain of being a man

Can't you help me as I'm startin' to burn (all alone)
Too many doses and I'm starting to get an attraction
My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone)
No one can save me and you know I don't want the attention

So sorry you're not here I've been sane too long my vision's so unclear
Now take a trip with me but don't be surprised when things aren't what they seem
I've known it from the start all these good ideas will tear your brain apart
Scared but you can follow me I'm too weird to live but much too rare to die

Huah!
Ahhh!

This shining city built of gold
A far cry from innocence
There's more than meets the eye
'Round here look to the waters of the deep
A city of evil

There sat a seven-headed beast
Ten horns raised from his head
Symbolic woman sits on his throne
But hatred strips her and leaves her naked
The beast and the harlot
Whoa

She's a dwelling place for demons,
She's a cage for every unclean spirit,
Every filthy bird and makes us drink
The poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings
Fallen now is Babylon the Great

The city dressed in jewels and gold
Fine linen, myrrh and pearls
Her plagues will come all at once
As her mourners watch her burn
Destroyed in an hour

Merchants and captains of the world,
Sailors, navigators too
Will weep and mourn this loss
With her sins piled to the sky
The beast and the harlot
Oh

She's a dwelling place for demons,
She's a cage for every unclean spirit,
Every filthy bird and makes us drink
The poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings
Fallen now is Babylon the Great

The day has come for all us sinners,
If you're not a servant you'll be struck to the ground
Flee the burning, greedy city,
Looking back on her to see there's nothin' around

I don't believe in fairytales and no one wants to go to Hell,
You've made the wrong decision and it's easy to see
Now if you wanna serve above or be a king below with us,
You're welcome to the city where your future is set
Forever

She's a dwelling place for demons,
She's a cage for every unclean spirit,
Every filthy bird and makes us drink
The poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings
Fallen now is Babylon the Great

She's a dwelling place for demons,
She's a cage for every unclean spirit,
Every filthy bird and makes us drink
The poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings
Fallen now is Babylon the Great

Huah!

There comes a day when we all find out for ourselves
That once we have the words to say
There's no one left to tell
I know why you're running away

There's a place where nothing seems to be
A simple night of easy life
It's all your mind, all your mind
Something little shouldn't feel this way
We got a million thoughts we can't complain
It's all your life, all your life

It's four in the morning, you got one more chance to die
Like beautiful stories, the greatest chapters flew right by
There comes a day when we all find out for ourselves
That once we have the words to say, there's no one left to tell
I know why you're running away

These things don't happen here, another fictional reality
It's all your mind, all your mind
It's just as good as any other day
I'm gonna teach you about mortality
Now it's not right, it's not right

It's four in the morning, you got one more chance to die
Like beautiful stories the greatest chapters flew right by
There comes a day when we all find out for ourselves
That once we have the words to say, there's no one left to tell
I know why you're running away

In many ways I guess I'll never let you go
I'm close behind but I'm a lot more roomier than most
I took my second chance, just enjoy the dance
And found out who we are
Let's find out what we are, never leave asking why

It's four in the morning, you got one more chance to die
Like beautiful stories, the greatest chapters flew right by
There comes a day when we all find out for ourselves
That once we have the words to say, there's no one left to tell
I know why you're running away, I know why you're running away

Nightmare!

(Now your nightmare comes to life)

Dragged ya down below,
Down to the Devil's show,
To be his guest forever,
(Peace of mind is less than never)!

Hate to twist your mind,
But God ain't on your side,
An old acquaintance severed,
(Render of your last endeavour)!

Ashes burning, you can smell it in the air,
'cause men like you have such an easy soul to steal.

So stand in line while begging numbers in your head,
You're now a slave until the end of time,
And nothing stops the madness turning,
Haunting, yearning, pull the trigger!

You should have known, the price of evil,
And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah
Ooooh it's your f***in' nightmare!
(While your nightmare comes to life)

Can't wake up in sweat,
'cause it ain't over yet,
Still dancing with your demons,
(Victim of your own creation)!

Beyond the will to fight,
Where all that's wrong is right,
Where hate don't need a reason,
(Love is self-assassination)!

You've been lied to just to rape you of your sight, and now they have the nerve to tell you how to feel.
So sedated as they medicate your brain and while ya slowly go insane the tell ya:
"Give in with your best intentions, Help ya with your complications!"

You should have known the price of evil,
And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah.
No one to call,
Everybody to fear,
Your tragic fate is looking so clear, yeah.
Ooooh, it's your f***in' nightmare, ha-ha-ha-ha!

Fight (fight),
Not to fail (fail),
Not to fall (fall),
Or you'll end up like the others.

Die (die),
Die again (die),
Drenched in sin (sin),
With no respect for another.

Death (death),
Feel the fire (fire),
Feel the hate (hate),
Your pain is what we desire.

Lost (lost),
Hit the wall (wall),
Watch you crawl (crawl),
Such a replaceable liar.

And I know you hear their voices (calling from above),
And I know they may seem real (these signals of love),
But a life's made up of choices (some without appeal),
They took for granted your soul, and it's ours now to steal
(As your nightmare comes to life)!

You should have known the price of evil,
And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah.
No one to call,
Everybody to fear,
Your tragic fate is looking so clear, yeah...
Ooooh, it's your f***in' nightmare!

Caught up in this madness, too blind to see
Woke animal feelings in me
Took over my sense and I lost control
I'll taste your blood tonight

You know I make you wanna scream
You know I make you wanna run from me, baby
But know it's too late, you've wasted all your time

Relax while you're closing your eyes to me
So warm as I'm setting you free
With your arms by your side, there's no struggling
Pleasure's all mine this time

You know I make you wanna scream
You know I make you wanna run from me, baby
But know it's too late, you've wasted all your time

Cherishing, those feelings pleasuring
Cover me, unwanted clemency
Scream 'til there's silence
Scream while there's life left, vanishing
Scream from the pleasure unmask your desire
perishing

We've all had a time where we've lost control
We've all had our time to grow
I'm hoping I'm wrong, but I know I'm right
I'll hunt again one night

You know I make you wanna scream
You know I make you wanna run from me, baby
But know it's too late, you've wasted all your time

Cherishing, those feelings pleasuring
Cover me, unwanted clemency
Scream till there's silence
Scream while there's life left, vanishing
Scream from the pleasure unmask your desire
Perishing

Some live repressing their instinctive feelings
Protest the way we're built, don't point the blame on me

Scream, scream, scream, the way you would
If I ravaged your body
Scream, scream, scream, the way you would
If I ravaged your mind

Cherishing, those feelings pleasuring
Cover me, unwanted clemency
Scream 'til there's silence
Scream while there's life left, vanishing
Scream from the pleasure, unmask your desire
Perishing

So Far Away:Avenged Sevenfold

Never feared for anything
Never shamed but never free
A life that healed a broken heart
With all that it could

Lived a life so endlessly
Saw beyond what others see
I tried to heal your broken heart
With all that I could
Will you stay?
Will you stay away forever?

How do I live without the ones I love?
Time still turns the pages of the book it's burned
Place in time always on my mind
I have so much to say but you’re so far away

Plans of what our futures hold
Foolish lies of growing old
It seems we’re so invincible
But the truth is so cold

A final song, a last request
A perfect chapter laid to rest
Now and then I try to find
A place in my mind
Where you can stay
You can stay awake forever

How do I live without the ones I love?
Time still turns the pages of the book it's burned
Place in time always on my mind
I have so much to say but you’re so far away

Sleep tight, I'm not afraid
The ones that we love are here with me
Lay away a place for me
'Cause as soon as I'm done I'll be on my way
To live eternally

How do I live without the ones I love?
Time still turns the pages of the book it's burned
Place in time always on my mind
And the light you left remains but it's so hard to stay
When I have so much to say and you're so far away

I love you, you were ready
The pain is strong and urges rise
But I'll see you when it let's me
Your pain is gone, your hands untied

So far away
And I need you to know

So far away
And I need you
to need you to know

Hey kid (Hey kid)
Do I have your attention?
I know the way ya been livin'
Life so wreckless
Tragedy - Endless
Welcome to the family
Hey - There's something missing
Only time will alter your vision
Never in question
Lethal injection
Welcome to the family

Not long ago
You'd find the answers were so crystal clear
Within a day
You found yourself living in constant fear
Can you look at yourself now?
Can you look at yourself?
You can't win this fight

And in a way, it seems there's no one to call
When our thoughts are so numb
And our feelings unsure
We all have emptiness inside
We all have answers to find
But you can't win this fight

Hey (Hey Kid)
I have to question
What's with the violent aggression?
Details - Blurry
Lost him too early
Welcome to the family
Hey - Why won't you listen?
Can't help the people you're missing
It's been done
A casuality re-run
Welcome to the family

I'll try and help you
With the things that can't be justified
I need to warn you
That there is no way to rationalize
So have you figured it out now?
So have you figured it out?
You can't win this fight

And in a way, it seems there's no one to call
When our thoughts are so numb
And our feelings unsure
We all have emptiness inside
We all have answers to find
But you can't win this fight

Gunning for you
And all mankind
I've lost my mind
Psychotic
Rabid dementia
I won't be fine

I see you're a king
Who's been dethroned
Cast out in a world you've never known
Stand down - Place your weapons by your side
It's our war
In the end we'll surely lose, but that's alright

So have you figured it out now?
So have you figured it out?

And in a way, it seems there's no one to call
When our thoughts are so numb
And our feelings unsure
We all have emptiness inside
We all have answers to find
But you can't win this fight

Deep inside
Where nothing's fine
I lost my mind
You're not invited
So step aside
I lost my...

Deep inside
Where nothing's fine
I lost my mind
You're not invited
So step aside
I lost my...

You wake up late for school man you don't wanna go
You ask you mom, "Please?" but she still says "No!"
You missed two classes and no homework
But your teacher preaches class like you're some kind of jerk

You gotta fight
For your right
To paaaaaaaaaaaaaarty

You pop caught you smoking and he said "no way"
That hypocrite smokes two packs a day
Man, living at home is such a drag
Now your mom threw away your best porno mag
(Busted!)

You gotta fight
For your right
To paaaaaaaaaaaaaarty

You gotta fight

Don't step out of this house if that's the clothes you're gonna wear
I'll kick you out of my home if you don't cut that hair
Your mom busted in and said "What's that noise?"
Aw, mom you're just jealous; it's the Beastie Boys

You gotta fight
For your right
To paaaaaaaaaaaaaarty

PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRTY
Paaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarty

No sleep till--Brooklyn!

Foot on the pedal, never ever false metal
Engine running hotter than a boiling kettle
My job ain't a job, it's a damn good time
City to city I'm running my rhymes
On location, touring around the nation
Beastie Boys always on vacation
Itchy trigger finger but a stable turntable
I do what I do best because I'm willing and able
Ain't no faking, your money I'm taking
Going coast to coast to watch all the girlies shaking
While you're at the job working nine to five
The Beastie Boys at the Garden cold kickin' it live

No sleep till--

Another plane, another train
Another bottle in the brain
Another girl, another fight
Another drive all night
Our manager's crazy, he always smokes dust
He's got his own room at the back of the bus
Tour around the world, you rock around the clock
Plane to hotel, girls on the jock
We're trashing hotels like it's going out of style
Getting paid along the way 'cause it's worth your while
Four on the floor, Ad Rock's out the door
MCA's in the back because he's skeezin' with a whore
We got a safe in the trunk with money in a stack
With dice in the front and Brooklyn's in the back

No sleep till--
No sleep till Brooklyn
No sleep till Brooklyn

Ain't seen the light since we started this band
MCA, get on the mike my man
Born and bred Brooklyn, U.S.A.
They call me Adam Yauch
But I'm M.C.A..
Like a lemon to a lime
A lime to a lemon

I sip the def ale with all the fly women.
Got limos
Arena
TV-shows
Autograph pictures and classy hos

Step off homes
Get out of my way

Taxing little girlies from here to L.A..
Waking up
Before I get to sleep

'Cause I'll be rockin' this party eight days a week!

No sleep till -
No sleep till Brooklyn! No sleep till Brooklyn !

I can't stand it, I know you planned it
I'm a' set straight, this Watergate
I can't stand rocking when I'm in here
'Cause your crystal ball ain't so crystal clear
So while you sit back and wonder why
I got this f***in' thorn in my side
Oh my god, it's a mirage
I'm tellin' y'all it's sabotage

So listen up 'cause you can't say nothin'
You'll shut me down with a push of your button
But I'm out and I'm gone
I'll tell you now I keep it on and on

'Cause what you see you might not get
And we can bet so don't you get souped yet
You're scheming on a thing that's a mirage
I'm trying to tell you now it's sabotage

Whyyyyyyyyyyy!?
Our backs are now against the wall
Listen all of y'all it's a sabotage
Listen all of y'all it's a sabotage
Listen all of y'all it's a sabotage
Listen all of y'all it's a sabotage

I can't stand it, I know you planned it
I'm a' set straight this Watergate
I can't stand rockin' when I'm in this place
Because I feel disgraced because you're all in my face
But make no mistakes and switch up my channel
I'm Buddy Rich when I fly off the handle
What could it be, it's a mirage
You're scheming on a thing, that's sabotage

'Cause you can't, you won't and you don't stop
'Cause you can't, you won't and you don't stop
'Cause you can't, you won't and you don't stop
Mike D come on and rock the sure shot

I've got the brand new doodoo
Guaranteed like Yoohoo
I'm on like Dr John, yeah Mr Zu Zu
I'm a newlywed, not a divorcee
And everything I do is funky like Lee Dorsey
Well it's the taking of the Pelham, one, two, three
If you want a doodoo rhyme then come see me
I've got the savoir-faire with the unique rhyme and
I keep it on and on, it's never quitting time and
Strictly hand held is the style I go
Never rock the mic with the pantyhose
I strap on my ear goggles and I'm ready to go
'Cause at the boards is the man they call Mario
Pull up at the function and you know I'm Kojak
To all the party people that are on my Balzac
I've got more action than my man John Woo
And I've got mad hits like I was Rod Carew

'Cause you can't, you won't and you don't stop
'Cause you can't, you won't and you don't stop
'Cause you can't, you won't and you don't stop
Ad Rock come and rock the sure shot

Hurricane'll cross fade your ass and bust your ear drums
Listen everybody 'cause I'm shifting gears I'm
Fresh like Dougie when I set my specs and
On the microphone I come correct
Timing like a clock when I rock the hip hop
Top notch is my stock on the soapbox
I've got more rhymes than I've got gray hairs
And that's a lot because I've got my share
I've got a hole in my head and there's no one to fix it
Got to straighten my thoughts, I'm thinking too much sick s***
Everyone just takes and takes, takes, takes, takes
I've got to step back, I've got to contemplate
I'm like Lee Perry, I'm very
On rock the microphone and then I'm gone
I'm like Vaughn Bode, I'm a Cheech Wizard
Never quitting, so won't you listen

*Ah yes indeed it's fun time*
'Cause you can't, you won't and you don't stop
'Cause you can't, you won't and you don't stop
'Cause you can't, you won't and you don't stop
MCA come and rock the sure shot

I want to say a little something that's long overdue
The disrespect to women has got to be through
To all the mothers and the sisters and the wives and friends
I want to offer my love and respect to the end
Well you say I'm twenty-something and I should be slacking
But I'm working harder than ever and you could call it macking
So I'm supposed to sit upon my couch watching my TV
I'm still listening to wax, I'm not using the CD
Well I'm that kid in the corner
All f***ed up and I wanna so I'm gonna
Take a piece of the pie, why not, I'm not quittin'
Think I'm gonna change up my style just to fit in
I keep my underwear up with a piece of elastic
I use a bulls*** mic that's made out of plastic
To send my rhymes out to all the nations
Like Ma Bell, I've got the ill communications

'Cause you can't, you won't and you don't stop
'Cause you can't, you won't and you don't stop
'Cause you can't, you won't and you don't stop
'Cause you can't, you won't and you don't stop

In the time of chimpanzees I was a monkey
Butane in my veins and I'm out to cut the junkie
With the plastic eyeballs, spray-paint the vegetables
Dog food stalls with the beefcake pantyhose

Kill the headlights and put it in neutral
Stock car flamin' with a loser and the cruise control
Babies in Reno with the vitamin D
Got a couple of couches, sleep on the loveseat

Someone came in sayin' I'm insane to complain
About a shotgun wedding and a stain on my shirt
Don't believe everything that you breathe
You get a parking violation and a maggot on your sleeve

So shave your face with some mace in the dark
Savin' all your food stamps and burnin' down the trailer park
Yo, cut it

Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?
Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?

Forces of evil in a bozo nightmare
Ban all the music with a phoney gas chamber
'Cause one's got a weasel and the other's got a flag
One's on the pole, shove the other in a bag

With the rerun shows and the cocaine nose-job
The daytime crap of the folksinger slob
He hung himself with a guitar string
A slab of turkey-neck and it's hangin' from a pigeon wing

You can't write if you can't relate
Trade the cash for the beef for the body for the hate
And my time is a piece of wax fallin' on a termite
That's chokin' on the splinters

Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?
Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?

Yo, bring it on down
Soy
(Things are gonna change I can feel it)
Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?
Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?

Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?
Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?

Someday you'll hear my cry
The lonesome nightingale
Parched to palm this broken branch
My love has now set sail

Come sing with me a melody
In the dark of the night

Every time I close my eyes
The sun appears again
High above this broken branch
Will these wings ever mend?

Come sing with me a melody
In the dark of the night
Come far away to nightingale's
Make everything all right

I can hear the morning count
She lifts her weary head
High above this broken dream
To me her arms extend

Come sing with me a melody
In the dark of the night
Come far away to nightingale's
Make everything all right

The next major step is complete evisceration of the carcass
To begin, make a cut from the solar plexus
The point between the breastbone and stomach
Almost to the anus
Be very careful not to cut into the intestines
As this will contaminate the surrounding area with bacteria
And possibly feces (if this does happen, cleanse thoroughly)
A good way to avoid this is to use the knife inside the abdominal wall
Blade facing toward you, and making cautious progress

Blind me, erased what was
Stillborn I have become
The feelings I once felt are now dead and gone
I've waited here for you for so very long

So empty, just a shell of a man
Stillborn, this I understand
The feelings I once felt are now dead and gone
I've waited here for you for so very long

I've waited here for you so long
I've waited here for you
For you

The feelings I once felt are now dead and gone
I've waited here for you for so very long
I've waited here for you so long
I've waited here for you so long
I've waited here for you so long
I've waited here for you
For you

(Black Sabbath cover)

Have you ever thought about your soul?
and can it be saved?
Perhaps you think that when you're dead
You just stay in your grave
Must someone be right, and the other be wrong?
It's just a point of view
If we can't unite then our people will die
You know that it's true

Some of us belive in a god or gods
Or no god at all
Whatever you belive, we've got to unite
Until our enemies fall
There's no way to prove that what I belive
Is the only way
Religious belief is a personal thing
We should kepp it that way

(BREAK:)
We spend so much time at war with each other
while our enemies laugh and sharpen their claws
They see the truth that our Folk have forgotten -
That Self-Preservation is the Highest Law
Why can't our folk see beyon their religions and
work side by side for the good of us all
It's insane to argue and bicker and battle
While we watch our future crumble and fall

Wait until you see what's in front of your
face when you open your eyes
The answers been clear for so many years
It's still a surprise
The centuries pass, but religions won't last
The damage is done
We haven't got time to recondition our minds
'Til this battle is won

Alone at last, we can sit and fight.
And I've lost all faith in this blurring light,
But stay right here we can change our plight.
We're storming through this despite what's right.

One final fight, for this tonight.
Woah...
With knives and pens we made our plight.

Lay your heart down the ends in sight.
Conscience begs for you to do what's right.
Everyday it's still the same dull knife,
Stab it through and justify your pride.

One final fight, for this tonight.
Woah...
With knives and pens we made our plight.
Woah...
And I can't go on without your love, you lost, you never hold on.
We tried out best... Turn out the light,
Turn out the light.

One final fight, for this tonight.
Woah...
With knives and pens we made our plight.
Woah...
And I can't go on without your love, you lost, you never held on.
We tried out best... Turn out the light,
Turn out the light.

Wooooo hoooo!
Wooooo hoooo!
Wooooo hoooo!
Wooooo hoooo!

I got my head checked
By a jumbo jet
It wasn't easy
but nothing i-is
No

(Wooooo hooooooo!)
When I feel heavy metal
(Wooooo hooooooo!)
And I'm pins and I'm needles
(Wooooo hooooooo!)
Well, I lie and I'm easy
All of the time but I am never sure
Why I need you
Pleased to meet you

I got my head done
When I was young
It's not my problem
It's not my problem

(Wooooooooo hooooooo!!!)
When I feel heavy metal
(Wooooo hooooooo!)
And I'm pins and I'm needles
(Wooooo hooooooo!)
Well, I lie and I'm easy
All of the time but I am never sure
Why I need you
Pleased to meet you

Yeah yeah!
Yeah yeah!
Yeah yeah!
Oh yeah

Pschotic visions within a twisted mind
beyond bizarre I'm unable to describe
sickened thoughts of extreme perversion
and countless victims of severe mutilations
unusual acts of sexual stimulation
morbid fantasies of abnormal ecstasy
she is strangled then revived
brutally beaten
sodomized semiconscious and drugged
bound and restrained when f***ed
motivated by frustration
piss and s*** all over her face
self inflicted lacerations
forced to f*** me while menstruating
extreme perversion severe mutilation
sexually frustrated
during intercourse they are choked
I asphyxiate to enhance and achieve orgasm
shocking obscene obsessions
beating her to submission
secreting diseased semen
devourment of human feces
tonguing vaginal warts
caressing the naked body
f***ing her with foreign objects
this time she's not revived

I see nothing in your eyes
And the more I see the less I like
Is it over yet?
In my head

I know nothing of your kind
And I won't reveal your evil mind
Is it over yet?
I can't wait

So sacrifice yourself
And let me have what's left
I know that I can find
The fire in your eyes
I'm going all the way
Get away, please

You take the breath right out of me
You left a hole where my heart should be
You gotta fight just to make it through
'Cause I will be the death of you

This will be all over soon
Pour salt into the open wound
Is it over yet?
Let me in

So sacrifice yourself
And let me have what's left
I know that I can find
The fire in your eyes
I'm going all the way
Get away, please

You take the breath right out of me
You left a hole where my heart should be
You gotta fight just to make it through
'Cause I will be the death of you

I'm waiting
I'm praying
Realize
Start hating

You take the breath right out of me
You left a hole where my heart should be
You gotta fight just to make it through
'Cause I will be the death of you

Fall!

Now the dark begins to rise
Save your breath, it's far from over
Leave the lost and dead behind
Now's your chance to run for cover

I don't wanna change the world
I just wanna leave it colder
Light the fuse and burn it up
Take the path that leads to nowhere

All is lost again
But I'm not giving in...

I will not bow!
I will not break!
I will shut the world away
I will not fall!
I will not fade!
I will take your breath away...

Fall!

Watch the end through dying eyes
Now the dark is taking over
Show me where forever dies
Take the fall and run to Heaven

All is lost again
But I'm not giving in...

I will not bow!
I will not break!
I will shut the world away
I will not fall!
I will not fade!
I will take your breath away...

And I'll survive
Paranoid
I have lost the will to change
And I am not proud
Cold-blooded fake
I will shut the world away...

Open your eyes!

I will not bow!
I will not break!
I will shut the world away
I will not fall!
I will not fade!
I will take your breath away...

And I'll survive
Paranoid
I have lost the will to change
And I am not proud
Cold-blooded fake
I will shut the world away...

Fall!

Crowded streets are cleared away
One by one
Hollow heroes separate
As they run

You're so cold, keep your hand in mine
Wise men wonder while strong men die

Show me how it ends, it's all right
Show me how defenseless you really are
Satisfied and empty inside
Well that's all right
Let's give this another try

If you find your family
Don't you cry
In this land of make believe
Dead and dry

You're so cold but you feel alive
Lay your hands on me one last time

Show me how it ends, it's all right
Show me how defenseless you really are
Satisfied and empty inside
Well that's all right
Let's give this another try

Show me how it ends, it's all right
Show me how defenseless you really are
Satisfied and empty inside
Well that's all right
Let's give this another try

It's all right (x9)

If I had to
I would put myself right beside you
So let me ask
Would you like that? Would you like that?

And I don't mind
If you say this love is the last time
So now I'll ask
Do you like that? Do you like that?

NO!

Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place
In the diary of Jane
So tell me how it should be

Try to find out, what makes you tick
As I lie down, sore and sick
Do you like that? Do you like that?

There's a fine line, between love and hate
And I don't mind
Just let me say
That I like that! I like that!

Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place
In the diary of Jane
As I burn another page
As I look the other way
I still try to find my place
In the diary of Jane
So tell me how it should be

Desperate I will crawl
Waiting for so long
No love, there is no love
Die for anyone
What have I become?

Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place
In the diary of Jane
As I burn another page
As I look the other way
I still try to find my place
In the diary of Jane.

Sing me a song
Cause I don't want to hear my life go by
Sing me a song
And let the melody dance through our hearts tonight
And if you face it you'll find that the love we can make is so strong
Forget what they're saying
Stay true to yourself and move on

I see the city at night
I see the street life, the restaurants
The passerbys
Somebody's home
To the shower they go
Clean the stress away
Is anyone out there to the heart-break station
I'm gone
Forget what they're saying
Stay true to yourself and move on

I don't wanna live my life today
I'm all outta love and I'm tired of changing
I hope you can help pass the time away
Is anyone out there to the heart-break station
I'm gone

I fell outta love this time again
Can't stand one more fight
I'm too tired and crazy
I know someday I will be strong again
Forget what they're saying
It's to the heart-break station
I'm gone

Heart-break station, I'm gone

Heart-break station, I'm gone

Heart-break station, I'm gone

I don't wanna live my life today
I'm all outta love and I'm tired of changing
I hope you can help pass the time away
Is anyone out there to the heart-break station
I'm gone

I fell outta love this time again
Can't stand one more fight
I'm too tired and crazy
I know someday I will be strong again
Forget what they're saying
Stay true to yourself
Don't let nothin' phase you
Is anyone out there to the heart-break station
I'm gone

Oh yeah
You wanna find it
C'mon yeah

I'm on a plane
With cocaine
And yes I'm all lit up again
Cough up love
And touch up
Your mama said packing lines is sin

And yes I'm all lit up again
On the couch, in my bed
And yes I'm all lit up again
Flyin' on

I love the cocaine
I love the cocaine
Mama can't you wait yeah!

I'm on a train
And right on
You know the train is staying off the tracks
I'm in touch love
From this crutch
Well you at ten but money I'm on eleven

And yes I'm all lit up again
On the couch, in my bed
And yes I'm all lit up again
Flyin' on

I love the cocaine
I love the cocaine
Mama can't you wait
Mama can't you wait
I love the cocaine
I love the cocaine
Mama can't you wait
Oh, can't you wait long

Crack the door for the curious girl
'Cause she's waiting, she's been waiting
Chop a line for the fiending man
'Cause he wants one

You know, you know you got to
Can you feel it, can you feel it tonight
Are you high love
Tell me are you f***ing high
In the moment you are just so right
You're right love
Are you right love

And yes I'm all lit up again
On the couch, in my bed
And yes I'm all lit up again
Flyin' on

I love the cocaine
I love the cocaine...

10 years ago, I got a call that nearly killed me
Repeat yourself, my hands are shaking
When I was told my friend was gone, I felt so guilty
A thousand questions left unanswered

I'll bleed if you want me to
I'll serenade before I do
I'll bleed if you want me to

On and on although your gone
Candles burn without a flame on
Our final call to you
I know you're listening

How could you leave us that way?
Where did you go
10 years today?

10 years ago I stood beside the wood that held you
I must sit down, my legs are shaking
We let you go with gifts and plectrums for your journey
And melodies to help you on your way

I'll bleed if you want me to
I'll serenade before I do
I'll bleed if you want me to

On and on although your gone
Candles burn without a flame on
Our final call to you
I know you're listening

How could you leave us that way?
Where did you go
10 years today?

I'll bleed if you want me to
I'll bleed if you want me to
I'll bleed if you want me to

On and on although your gone
Candles burn without a flame on
Our final call to you
I know you're listening

How could you leave us that way?
Where did you go
10 years today?

Where did you go
10 years today?
Where did you go?

How could you leave us that way?
Where did you go
10 years today?

Kill your enemies
My brothers dead around me
Wounds are hurting
Death is creeping for me

Smoke is blinding
Hearts are pounding
Chaos soon ignites
The call is made, it's one for all
Will I meet my maker?

Over the top, over the top
Right now, it's killing time
Over the top, over the top
Right now, it's killing time
Over the top, over the top
Right now, it's killing time
Over the top, over the top
The only way out is to die

God has spoken through his conscience
As I scream, aim and fire
The death toll grows higher
God has spoken through his conscience
As I scream, aim and fire
The death toll grows higher

Charge!

F*** this battlefield
The bullets tear around me
Bodies falling, voices calling for me
Limbs are flying, men are crying
Such a hurtful sight
The call is made, it's one for all
Take no prisoners

Over the top, over the top
Right now, it's killing time
Over the top, over the top
Right now, it's killing time
Over the top, over the top
Right now, it's killing time
Over the top, over the top
The only way out is to die

God has spoken through his conscience
As I scream, aim and fire
The death toll grows higher
God has spoken through his conscience
As I scream, aim and fire
The death toll grows higher

Scream, aim, fire!
Scream, aim, fire!

Over the top, over the top
Right now, it's killing time
Over the top, over the top
Right now, it's killing time
Over the top, over the top
Right now, it's killing time
Over the top, over the top
The only way out is to die

God has spoken through his conscience
As I scream, aim and fire
The death toll grows higher
God has spoken through his conscience
As I scream, aim and fire
The death toll grows higher

Scream, aim, fire

Shhhh!!

Let's go!

With bloodshot eyes I watch you sleeping
The warmth I feel beside me is slowly fading
Would she hear me, if I called her name?
Would she hold me, if she knew my shame?

There's always something different going wrong
The path I walk is in the wrong direction
There's always someone f***ing hanging on
Can anybody help me make things better?

Your tears don't fall, they crash around me
Her conscience calls the guilty to come home
Your tears don't fall, they crash around me
Her conscience calls the guilty to come home

The moment's died, I hear no screaming
The visions left inside me are slowly fading
Would she hear me, if I called her name?
Would she hold me, if she knew my shame?

There's always something different going wrong
The path I walk is in the wrong direction
There's always someone f***ing hanging on
Can anybody help me make things better?

Your tears don't fall, they crash around me
Her conscience calls the guilty to come home
Your tears don't fall, they crash around me
Her conscience calls the guilty to come home

Oh!
Yeah!

This battered room I've seen before
The broken bones they heal no more, no more
With my last breath I'm choking
Will this ever end, I'm hoping?
My world is over one more time

Let's go!

Would she hear me, if I called her name?
Would she hold me, if she knew my shame?

There's always something different going wrong
The path I walk is in the wrong direction
There's always someone f***ing hanging on
Can anybody help me make things better?

Your tears don't fall, they crash around me
Her conscience calls the guilty to come home
Your tears don't fall, they crash around me
Her conscience calls the guilty to come home

Better!
Your tears don't fall, they crash around me
Her conscience calls the guilty to come home

Love and hate, get it wrong
She cut me right back down to size
Sleep the day, let it fade
Who was there to take your place
No one knows, never will
Mostly me, but mostly you
What do you say, do you do
When it all comes down

Cause I don't want to come back down from this cloud
It's taken me all this time to find out what I need again
I don't want to come back down from this cloud
It's taken me all this, all this time

There is no blame, only shame
When you beg, you just complain
The more I come, the more I try
All police are paranoid
So am I, so's the future
So are you, be a creature
What do you say, do you do
When it all comes down

Cause I don't want to come back down from this cloud
It's taken me all this time to find out what I need
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I don't want to come back down from this cloud
It's taken me all this, all this time

Shoot up, shoot up
Shoot up, you're high

Love and hate, get it wrong
She cut me right back down to size
Sleep the day, let it fade
Who was there to take your place
No one knows, never will
Mostly me but mostly you
What do you say, do ya do
When it all comes down

Cause I don't want to come back down from this cloud
It's taken me all this time to find out what I need
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I don't want to come back down from this cloud
It's taken me all this, all this time

Why did you, why did you, why did you, why did you
Why did you, why did you, why did you, why did you
Why did you

Come down
I don't want to come back down from this cloud
This cloud, this cloud, this cloud, this cloud
This cloud, this cloud, this cloud, this cloud

There must be something we can eat
Maybe find another lover
Should I fly to Los Angeles
Find my asshole brother
Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow
Dave's on sale again
We kissy kiss in the rear view
We're so bored, you're to blame

Try to see it once my way
Everything zen, everything zen
I don't think so
Everything zen, everything zen
I don't think so

Raindogs howl for the century
A million dollars a steak
As you're search for your demi-god
And you fake with a saint
There's no sex in your violence
There's no sex in your violence
There's no sex in your violence
There's no sex in your violence

Try to see it once my way
Everything zen, everything zen
I don't think so
Everything zen, everything zen
I don't think so
Everything zen, everything zen

I don't believe that Elvis is dead
I don't believe that Elvis is dead
I don't believe that Elvis is dead
I don't believe that Elvis is, Elvis is

There's no sex in your violence
There's no sex in your violence
There's no sex in your violence
There's no sex in your violence

Try to see it once my way
Everything zen, everything zen
I don't think so
Try to see it once my way
Everything zen, everything zen
I don't think so

Zen, zen
I don't think so
I don't think so
I don't think so

It must be your skin, I'm sinkin' in
It must be for real, 'cause now I can feel
And I didn't mind, it's not my kind
It's not my time, to wonder why
Everything gone white, everything's grey
Now you're here, now you're away
I don't want this, remember that
I'll never forget, where you're at

Don't let the days go by
Glycerine, glycerine

I'm never alone, I'm alone all the time
Are you at one, or do you lie
We live in a wheel, where everyone steals
But when we rise, it's like strawberry fields
If I treated you bad, you'd bruise my face
Couldn't love you more, you've got a beautiful taste

Don't let the days go by
Could have been easier on you
I couldn't change though I wanted to
Should have been easier by three
Our old friend fear and you and me
Glycerine, glycerine
Don't let the days go by, glycerine
Don't let the days go by
Ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

Glycerine, glycerine
Oh, glycerine, glycerine

Bad moon whine again
Bad moon whine again
As she falls around me

I needed you more, we wanted us less
Could not kiss, just regress
It might just be clear, simple, and plain
Well that's just fine, that's just one of my names

Don't let the days go by
Could've been easier on you you you
Glycerine, glycerine
Glycerine, glycerine

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Breathe in, breathe out
Breathe in, breathe out
Breathe in
Breathe in, breathe out
Breathe in, breathe out
Breathe in
Tied to a wheel, my fingers got to feel
Bleeding through a tourniquet smile
I spin on a whim, I slide to the right
I felt you like electric light
For our love, for our fear
For our rise against the years, and years, and years

Got a machinehead, it's better than the rest
Green to red, machinehead
Got a machinehead, it's better than the rest
Green to red

I walk from my machine
I walk from my machine

Breathe in, breathe out
Breathe in, breathe out
Breathe in
Deaf, dumb and thirty, starting to deserve this
Leaning on my conscience wall
Blood is like wine, unconscious all the time
If I had it all again I'd change it all

Got a machinehead, it's better than the rest
Green to red, machinehead
Got a machinehead, it's better than the rest
Green to red, yeah

I walk from my machine
I walk from my machine

Breathe in, breathe out
Breathe in, breathe out
Breathe in, breathe in, breathe in

Got a machinehead it's better than the rest
Green to red, machinehead
Got a machinehead, it's better than the rest
Green to red
Better than the rest
Better than the rest
Machinehead, head, head, head, head, head

I walk from my machine
I walk from my machine

I want you to remember
A love so full it could send us always
I want you to surrender
All my feelings rose today

And I want you to remain
The power of children can amaze
I'll try not to complain
I know that's a pisser baby

The chemicals between us
The walls that lie between us
Lying in this bed
The chemicals displaced
There is no lonelier state
Than lying in this bed

I want you to remember
Everything you said
Every driven word
Like a hammer
Fell to my head

The chemicals between us
The walls that lie between us
Lying in this bed
The chemicals displaced
There is no lonlier fate
Than lying in this bed
The chemicals between us
The chemicals between us
Lying in this bed

We're of hollow men
We are the naked ones
We never meant you harm
Never meant you wrong
And I'd like to thank
All of my lovers, lovers, lovers, lovers, lovers, lovers

The chemicals between us
The army of achievers
Lying in this bed
The chemicals displaced
There is no lonelier state
Than lying in this bed
The chemicals between us
The chemicals between us
Chemicals

The chemicals between us

Reluctantly crouched at the starting line
Engines pumping and thumping in time
The green light flashes; the flags go up
Churning and burning, they yearn for the cup

They deftly maneuver and muscle for rank
Fuel burning fast on an empty tank
Reckless and wild, they pour through the turns
Their prowess is potent and secretly stern

As they speed through the finish, the flags go down
The fans get up, and they get out of town
The arena is empty, except for one man
Still driving and striving as fast as he can

The sun has gone down and the moon has come up
And long ago somebody left with the cup
But he's driving and striving and hugging the turns
And thinking of someone for whom he still burns

He's going the distance
He's going for speed
She's all alone (All alone)
All alone in her time of need

Because he's racing and pacing and plotting the course
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse
He's going the distance
Ahh, ahh

Yah! Oh!

No trophy, no flowers, no flashbulbs, no line
He's haunted by something he cannot define
Bowel-shaking earthquakes of doubt and remorse
Assail him, impale him with monster truck force

In his mind, he's still driving, still making the grade
She's hoping in time that her memories will fade
'Cause he's racing and pacing and plotting the course
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse

The sun has gone down and the moon has come up
And long ago somebody left with the cup
But he's striving and driving and hugging the turns
And thinking of someone for whom he still burns

'Cause he's going the distance
He's going for speed
She's all alone (All alone)
All alone in her time of need

Because he's racing and pacing and plotting the course
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse
He's racing and pacing and plotting the course
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse
He's going the distance
He's going for speed
He's going the distance
Ahh, ahh, hey!

Hey!

Now maybe
I did not mean to treat you bad
But I did it anyway
And now maybe
Some would say your life was sad
But you lived it anyway
And so maybe
Your friends they stand around they watch your crumble
As you falter to the ground
And then someday
Your friends they stand beside as you were flyin'
Oh you were flyin' oh so high

But then someday people look at you for what they call their own
They watch you suffer
Yeah they hear you calling home
But then some day we could take our time
To brush the leaves aside so you can reach us
But you left me far behind

Now maybe
I didn't mean to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway
Now I said maybe some would say you're left with what you had
But you couldn't share the pain

No, no, no
Couldn't share the pain, they watch you suffer

Now maybe I could have made my own mistakes
But I live with what I've known
And then maybe we might share in something great
But won't you look at where we've grown
Won't you look at where we've gone
But then someday comes tomorrow holds
a sense of what I fear for you in my mind
As you trip the final line
And that cold day when you lost control
It's a shame you left my life so soon you should have told me
But you left me far behind, yeah
Now maybe I didn't mean to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway
Now maybe some would say you're left with what you had
But you couldn't share the pain
No, no, no

Oh no
Oh no no no no...
Now maybe I didn't mean to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway
Now maybe some would say you're left with what you had
But you couldn't share the pain
I said times have changed your friends
They come and watch you crumble to the ground
They watch you suffer
Yeah, they hold you down
Hold on down
Now maybe lover, maybe love
I didn't mean to treat you bad
But you left me far behind
Left me far behind
Left me far behind
