UNSTOPPABLE

Come and lay right on my bed, sit and drink some wine
I'll try not to make you cry
And if you get inside my head, then you'd understand
Then you'd understand me
Why I've felt so alone, why I kept myself from love
And you became my favorite drug
So let me take you right now and swallow you down,
I need you inside

Refrain:
If we had this night together
If we had a moment to ourselves
If we had this night together, then we'd be unstoppable

Do you think that this is right, or is it really wrong
I know that this is what we've been wanting
And all this burning in my soul, it fills up to my throat
It fills up til my heart is breaking

Refrain

Now we can both learn
Somehow, you'll see it's all we have
Love, it keeps us together
And I need love

When I wake up without you, knowing you're not there
I'm only feeling half as good
Well I'm gonna find a way
To wrap you in my arms, you make me feel alive

Refrain

NOTHING'S CHANGED

It was a day just like this
In a life of our times
Shrugging signs there's no chance for us
It's not mine to decide

You never listened to what i said
You never thought i's succeed
And though I've given you all i can
You show no faith in me

Refrain:
And i remember, And i recall
And i can see that nothing's changed at all
Though we falter, we dont have to fall
And i can see that nothing's changed at all

Even when i was young
And the pressure was on
You always told me to do my thing
So what the hell went wrong

Refrain

An outcast coming home, opinions stay the same
They'll spit them out and spin me right back through the door
The louder we scream, the more invisible we seem
Is it gonna last forever

Now I'm learning the lies
From the skies where they reign
Can't find shelter for myself
And you're all to blame

Refrain x2

WHEREVER YOU WILL GO

So lately, been wondering,
Who will be there to take my place
When I'm gone you'll need love to light the shadows on your face
If a great wave shall fall and fall upon us all
Then between the sand and stone, could you make it on your own

If I could, then I would,
I'll go wherever you will go-
Way up high or down low, I'll go wherever you will go

And maybe, I'll find out
A way to make it back someday
To watch you, to guide you, through the darkest of your days
If a great wave shall fall and fall upon us all
Then I hope there's someone out there who can bring me back to you

If I could, then I would,
I'll go wherever you will go-
Way up high or down low, I'll go wherever you will go

Run away with my heart
Run away with my hope
Run away with my love

I know now, just quite how
My life and love my still go on
In your heart, in your mind, I'll stay with you for all of time

If I could, then I would,
I'll go wherever you will go-
Way up high or down low, I'll go wherever you will go

COULD IT BE ANY HARDER

You left me with goodbye and open arms
A cut so deep I don't deserve
You were always invincible in my eyes
The only thing against us now is time

Refrain:
Could it be any harder to say goodbye and without you
Could it be any harder to watch you go, to face what's true
If I only had one more day

I lie down and blind myself with laughter
A quick fix of hope is what I'm needing
And how I wish that I could turn back the hours
But I know I just don't have the power

Refrain

I'd jump at the chance,
We'd drink and we'd dance
and I'd listen close to your every word,
As if it's your last, I know it's your last,
Cause today, oh, you're gone.

Refrain

Like sand on my feet
The smell of sweet perfume
You stick to me forever
and I wish you didn't go,
I wish you didn't go, I wish you didn't go away
To touch you again,
With life in your hands,
It couldn't be any harder...harder...harder

FINAL ANSWER

I want love
To carry me through
All the moments, I'd kindly undo
Locked away
So i can feel safe

Now that I'm down on my knees, begging for change
Look down at the water
Before i jump in
To find i was sinking fast, in all the might have been

Refrain:
What i need now is an honest answer, to make things better
You can see now my hands are tied, and i surrender
So i'll wait here for your final answer, your final answer

Is there love without hate
Is there pleasure without pain?
I have seen all my mistakes
I cast you out, but now, i want you back
So light me again, cause my heart is turning black

Refrain

Remember the night you wore that dress
It flowed through out lips
Drink after drink, and kiss after kiss
I'm still holding on, day after day
Don't run away

I want love to carry me through
Can you tell me what I'm sapposed to do

Refrain

ADRIENNE

I've been thinking about you, my love
And all the crazy things you put me through
Now I'm coming around, Throwing it back to you
Were you thinking of me when you kissed him
Could you taste me when you licked his skin
All the while i showerd you with trust and promises
What I'm needing now is some sweet revenge
To get back all that i lost then
I gave you all i had to give, but i could never reach you

Refrain:
Adrienne, i thought i know you
Once again, you used me, used me
Adrienne, i should have left you
Long before you used me, Used me up

Spent my money, drove my car
I treated you like a shining star
But in my sky all burnt out you are
And I'll have the last laugh, when i see you walking with
some other guy
'Cause i know you're gonne end up all alone
So take these words, some good advice
All you've done's gonna come back twice
You never cared how much it hurt, i really need to tell you

Refrain

What I'm neding now some sweet revenge
To get back all that i love then.
I gave you all that i had to give, but i could never reach you

Refrain

WE'RE FORGIVEN

Well I would like to think
The world hasn't seen
That all the best is still to come,
And i know life ain't easy.

I pass them sleeping on the streets
Their bloodstained hands and dirty feet
And i can't ignore them
Any more then i already have

Refrain:
So we laugh, and we smile
and we play our games of sweet denial
But don't tell me we're forgiven
If we hold, all our breath
If we kneel right down and just repent
You can't tell me we're forgiven

Start with me
I cannot lie
When my heart doesn't fallow my eyes
Turn away from all the suffering
That surounds
Our time on this earth
For some their life has been a curse
I say I'm sorry and i should change
You know it just could be me someday

Refrain

There's no way out of here
I don't want to die, and leave it all behind
Each day part of me disappears
But who am I to judge, what's been sent from above

Refrain

We can't laugh
We can't smile
When so much just ain't right
It can't go on forever...
If we hold, our breath
If we kneel down and repent
You can't tell me we're forgiven, no,
You can't tell me we're forgiven

THINGS DON'T ALWAYS TURN OUT THAT WAY

Well he can't sleep at night
And he can't do whats right
It was all because she came into his life
it's a deep obsession, taking up his time

Refrain:
She's all that he wants, she's all that he needs
She's everything he just won't believe
Take away his doubt, turn him inside out
Then she can see what he's been dying to say
but things don't always turn out that way

And he must confess
All the impure thoughts of his beautiful temptress
although he keeps it all bottled up inside
although he keeps it all safe within his mind, oh yeah

Refrain

So wipe that smile off your face
Before it gets too late
There's only so much time
For you to make up your mind

Refrain

JUST THAT GOOD

A little paint, to cover what's deep inside
A little truth you know we all want to hide
When I'm trying, I'm trying now to get to you
But you're telling me like you always do, you say

Don't hate me, cause I'm just that good

I've got to hand it to you now
You're a hard one to please
When it looks as though, you've got all you need
All the many times I've dreamed
I could walk in your shoes
What a nightmare it must be
Just being you.. say

Refrain:
Don't hate me, Cause I'm just that good
A little misunderstood
You made me, so I'm just that good

Step outside, walk with me
Everyone i know and see is falling
Is crawling after something maybe,
A bigger house, faster car, never knowing who they are
They're lonely, They're lonely, They're lonley

Refrain

All this time will take its toll on you
As the same it will on me
Well good ain't all that good's made out to be
Don't hate me, we're all just that good
Just that good

THANK YOU

Look around, the writting's on the wall
Don't you think we're all feeling crazed
In a world, where nothing's as it seems
Paved with broken dreams, i found truth
My god, I should know you're right
I should know it's right to say I think you for my days

Refrain:
Come around and see the other side
Stepping stones, away from the limelight
Come around and breathe in peice of mind
And for it all, I thank you. I thank you.

Sit down, lose yourself in thought
Then you might find out it's all we've got
Take a chance, the future's in your hands
Make it what you can before your time has reached the end

Refrain

Come around and see the other side
Stepping stones, away from the limelight
Come around, and breathe in peice of mind
And for it all.. You You'll make it - on your own
Yeah, You're free...
Stepping stones away from the limeligh
Come around and breathe in piece of mind
and for it all i thank you, i thank you, i thank you, i thank you

STIGMATIZED

If i give up on you i give up on me
If we fight what's true, will we ever be
Even God himself and the faith i knew
Shouldn't hold me back, shouldn't keep me from you

Refrain:
Tease me, by holding out your hand
Then leave me, or take me as i am
And live our lives, stigmatized

I can feel the blood rushing though my veins
When i hear your voice, driving me insane
Hour after hour day after day
Every lonely night that i sit and pray

Refrain

We live our lives on diffrent sides,
But we keep together you and I
Just live our lives, stigmatized

We'll live our lives, We'll take the punches everyday
We'll live our lives I know we're gonna find our way

I believe in you
Even if no one undersatnds
I Believe in you, and i dont really give a damn
If we're stigmatized
We live our lives on diffrent sides
But we keep together you and I
We live our lives on diffrent sides

We're gonne live our lives
Gotta live our lives
We;re gonna live our lives
We're gonna live our lives, Gonna live our lives, Stigmatized

SAVAGE BUTCHERY

Striking out with rage I pound him, stomp him
Cocksucking bastard don't feel mercy for him
With bare hands I break his legs, break his neck
Now my jagged blade will bring him to his death

Savage killer merciless machine
Butchering victims and watching them bleed
Savage killer chopping off limbs
Butchering for revenge, heartless assassin

Now the cutting starts I stab him, slash him
Less than a minute he became a victim
Now I will sever his legs, his neck
Hatred enemy his body I dissect
Savage

Savage
Butchery
Ravage
Ruthlessly

Veins spray blood it splashes in my eyes
Impulse of my rage will dictate how he dies
Chopped up while alive or killed with the first strike
What's left of his life is dripping from my knife

Savage killer merciless machine
Butchering victims and watching him bleed
Savage killer chopping off limbs
Butchering for revenge, heartless assassin

Savage
Butchery
Ravage
Ruthlessly

Savage
Butchery

HATCHET TO THE HEAD

Skull fragments are flying through the air
Brains and blood scattered just about everywhere you look
Swing of the hatchet gives permanent damage,
Head fractured, gaping hole
To incise the cranium

Slit open crushed eyeballs dripping hanging from the sockets
Steel cracked bone with fatal trauma to the cerebellum
Useful lust of gore

Hatchet to the head

Rekindled gore obsess rend the weak
Mutilate then murder consciously
Death brought to the enemies of the past
A life of beheading I must have
Pure revenge is burning inside me

Slit open crushed eyeballs dripping hanging from the sockets
Steel cracked bone with fatal trauma to the cerebellum
Useful lust of gore

Hatchet to the head
Hatchet to the head
Hatchet to the head
Hatchet to the head
Hatchet to the head

Forced from deep inside to hunt you
Bludgeoned torn apart veins erupted
Forever headless rotting corpse
Recognition you are now beyond

Wretched, onslaught, slaughter

Faceless flesh remains from the victims
Hacked with brutal force until slain
Consumed with anger, lunacy
Relentless killing dependency

Slit open crushed eyeballs dripping hanging from the sockets
Steel cracked bone with fatal trauma to the cerebellum
Useful lust of gore

Hatchet to the head
Hatchet to the head
Hatchet to the head
Hatchet to the head
Hatchet to the head

Chop it off!

PIT OF ZOMBIES

Captured by the priest of evil
Deep inside the hive
Hellish dungeon filled with undead
Their rotting claws reaching for my
Legs I hang above the ghouls
I know they want me for their food
Overwhelmed by deadly fear
Hung above the Zombie lair

Hanging by a thread above them
Taken here to die
Rotting hands reaching for me
Their undead eyes see me as a meal
They want to eat alive
Mindless hunger in their eyes
Filthy claws grasp at my feet
Slashing wounds my ankles bleed

Pit of zombies
Chasm teeming with undead
Death is grisly
Lowered slightly now they reach me
I scream in frantic pain
Tearing off my feet with fury
The pain intense below my knees my
Legs have been removed
They suck the blood from the wounds
Voracious zombies rend my thighs
They pull me down, my corpse they
Will divide

Pit of zombies
Chasm teeming with undead
Their jaws await me
A gruesome end the
Pit of zombies
Reanimated to devour
I watch them kill me

They claw at my face
And rip off my scalp
Exposing my skull
Arteries severed
Gushing blood showers them drives
Them mad raging mob
A hideous feast

Puncture my stomach and
Tear out the guts
Devour entrails
Rotting zombies have torn me apart
They gorge on my flesh

Engulfed
Consumed
This pit
My doom

Engulfed alive
Consumed by death
This pit of zombies
My doom is here

Pit of zombies
Chasm teeming with undead
Their jaws await me
A gruesome end the pit of zombies
Reanimated to devour
I watch them kill me

DORMANT BODIES BURSTING

Bodies are bursting apart
Volcanic eruption of guts
Exploding cadavers bring forth
A bloodbath to torment all life

The sky and the earth are now tainted by
Blood
Death is to blame for this enormous
Flood
The bodies are bursting apart
Volcanic eruption of guts

Detonate, polluted, pandemic
Unburied decedents that no longer die
Dispelled amok amongst sickness
The dead and living are one
When dormant bodies are bursting

The sky and the earth are now tainted by
Blood
Death is to blame for this enormous
Flood
The bodies are bursting apart
Volcanic eruption of guts

Infernal, disaster, revulsion

Dormant bodies bursting

Bodies are bursting apart
Volcanic eruption of guts
Exploding cadavers bring forth
A bloodbath to torment all life

The sky and the earth are now tainted by
Blood
Death is to blame for this enormous
Flood
The bodies are bursting apart
Volcanic eruption of guts

Detonate, polluted, pandemic

COMPELLED TO LACERATE

Vicious thoughts will overpower
His virulent mind explodes
Unable to suppress the madness
He can't contain this inner pain
Compelled to

Lacerate
Rendering for release
Set free souls through holes in their skin
Murdered, or have they been saved

Bleeding corpse his work of art
Human flesh a canvas
Craftsman of macabre creations
He can't control it makes him whole
Compelled to

Lacerate
Rendering for release
Slicing through victims and then he stands back
To admire what he has done
Mutilate
Ruptured figures sprawl
Slaughtered in a rage now left to be found
A gristly gift of art

Mangle them ripping death lacerate them

Stunning victims with a club abducted with
Stealth taken to his home
Ropes and chains restrain his living subject of art
He stabs
Grating with a jagged edge his prey screams in pain
Writhing under his knife
Driven to improve his victims through gruesome
Design, he cannot stop
Compelled to

Lacerate rendering for release
Mutilate now it's time to slice

Mangle them ripping death lacerate them

Lacerate from release
Slicing through victims and the he stands back
To admire what he has done
Mutilate
Ruptured figures Sprawl
Slaughtered in a rage now left to be found
A grisly gift of art

DROWNING IN VISCERA

Engulfed in the innards
Of rotting cadavers a rancid gore sea
Asphyxiation
Tangled intestines become my reality
Choking on guts
Asphyxiation gasping for breath
Drowning in viscera

Slowly to taper away dissipate
Absorbing this ultimate carnage
Surrounding me
Soaking in entrails decayed
Decomposed

Entombed without reason
In moist isolation of repugnancy
Morose sensation
Covered completely as terror
Enhances pain, to suffocate
Morose sensation gasping for breath
Drowning in viscera

Sinking in this tamped hell, pestilent
Smothered in heaping chunks
Stinking flesh putrefies
Decomposition ensures burial
Inundated languid doom

Iniquity, submerged ending
Primeval swamp, sanguinary
Inescapable abuse

Starting to fade, blood saturates
Deadly embrace, immolated
Imbrued with pus of the dead

Eviscerate another life gutted soul
Morbidity, obliterate
Engrossing plight fatal rot
Consuming scum
Drenched in evil excrement
Sent to a world to die in pain by
Drowning in viscera

Engulfed in the innards
Of rotting cadavers a rancid gore sea
Asphyxiation
Tangled intestines become my reality
Choking on guts
Morose sensation gasping for breath
Drowning in viscera

Eviscerate another life gutted soul
Morbidity, obliterate
Engrossing plight fatal rot
Consuming scum
Drenched in evil excrement
Sent to a world to die in pain by
Drowning in viscera

HUNG AND BLED

Trying to conceal his murders the
Maniac
Stabs the heart
Stops the flow
Cleaning up the blood's a problem he
Now solves
Hooks through heels
Hung and bled

Corpses are suspended by their feet
Swaying dripping bloody piece of meat
Fastened to the ceiling leaking gore
Splashing down to the floor

Congealing fluids fester the stench
Revolting septic gruel
Putrid slop
Licks the surface of his dungeon
A gruesome meal
Rancid feast live on death

Corpses dangle lifeless gray and cold
Rotting flesh the meat hooks lose their
Hold
Stenching body falls onto the ground
Bones and flesh form a mound

Sanguinary killer will not stop
Hanging dead replacing those that drop
Blood he drinks like wine their flesh
His bread in his maw dripping red
Hung and bled

Oozing blood the butcher's victims
Soak the concrete
Putrefy
Halls of dread
Draped with death
Ornate crimes
Stalactites made of flesh
Festooned with innards
Gaining life
Sentient place, the stone walls
Breathe
Hungry soul
It can think
A genuine living hell
Created by
The butcher he lost control
Owner and property change their roles
Constantly feeding the gluttonous room
He once ruled the chamber
Now it's his tomb

Hung by their feet
Drained of blood
Swallowed by death
Greed of this place
Bodies
Decay, devoured by evil
Slave to this hell
He creates
Undying

Corpses are suspended by their feet
Swaying dripping bloody piece of meat
Fastened to the ceiling leaking gore
Splashing down to the floor
Corpses he suspended turning pale
All the blood drained into his grail
Fastened to the ceiling dry and dead
Fluids of life have been shed
Hung and bled

SANDED FACELESS

Rapacious for pleasure scraping
Filing down with intense grinding
Harsh abrasive friction deface
Countenance now removed forever

Scouring faces with flies
Tedious rasping
Painstakingly grate the skin
Insensate razing
Sanded faceless
A violent facial scrub
Malefic in nature
An art of shaving the bone
Insalubrious
Sanded faceless

Rubbing off a humans visage
Enduring display of malice
With celerity they perish
Countenance now removed forever

Everything gone from the head
Miasmal menace
All curves of a face are now smooth
Forced a new surface
Sanded faceless
Obscurity into black
Outrageous agenda
Sensory perception lost
Left to die in pain
Sanded faceless

Insane appearance eyeless
To calibrate the skull
Image erasing soulless
Retexturing of flesh
Suddenly to be faceless
For perpetuity

Scouring faces with flies
Tedious rasping
Painstakingly grate the skin
Insensate razing
Sanded faceless
A violent facial scrub
Malefic in nature
An art of shaving the bone
Insalubrious
Sanded faceless

MUTATION OF THE CADAVER

Lying on the table dead
Coroner
Completes his task

Examining the wretched stiff
Suicide
The likely cause

Behind closed doors the change
Begins
Then it grows
Mutation of the cadaver
Mutation of the cadaver

Coroner returns to notice
Subtle change
How can this be?

Must be his imagination
The man's been dead
For several days

The change continues after hours
Different face
Mutation of the cadaver
Soon the corpse will change its shape
Who is it?

Mutation of the cadaver
Mutation of the cadaver
Mutation of the cadaver
Mutation of the cadaver

The coroner returns and sees
The body has truly changed
The corpse has stolen his face
And now he loses his mind

Shocking evolution
Mutation of the cadaver
Hideous conversion
Mutation of the cadaver
Postmortem upheaval
Mutation of the cadaver
Awful transformation
Mutation of the cadaver
Gruesome reconstruction
Mutation of the cadaver

WHEN DEATH REPLACES LIFE

Smashing the human horde
Crushing religious filth
Nailing invertedly the ones who plant the seeds
Of doubt
Wasting inherent truth
Confronting an inner hell
Cursing subconsciously the ones who reap the
Seeds of doubt

How can humans play God when they are all
Slaves?
Their lack of souls will lead them to an early
Grave
Condemned to live a life of unrelenting praise
Their rotted corpse remains when death replaces life

Tearing the vocal chords of prophets that spoke of lies
Unwanted
They are the ones controlling the seeds of doubt

How can humans play God when all they are are
Slaves?
Their lack of souls will lead them to an early
Grave
Condemned to live a life of unrelenting praise
Their rotted corpse remains when death replaces life

Fearing their fate they chose a random date
When all life would cease and rapture would
Release
Trampling the meek the gospel they did speak
Foretelling demise speaking only lies

Feeding the senseless souls of mindless
Inhabitants not knowing they are the ones
Consuming the seeds of doubt
Finding the source of stimulation unnurtured
Realization of fools who will always against their
Will just end their lives

How can humans play God when all they are are
Slaves?
Their lack of souls will lead them to an early
Grave
Condemned to live a life of unrelenting praise
Their rotted corpse remains when death replaces life

GROTESQUE

Monstrous
My thoughts
Revolting visions, carnage
Bloodbath
My dream
Gore soaked
My hands
Hallucination, or real
I wield
The blade

Grotesque...mind...grotesque

Visions
Murder
See myself slashing, the throats
Victims
My friends
Horror
My crimes
Fiendish memory, did I
Kill them
I must know

Did I kill them?

Life long friend
Cut off his head

How can this be I butchered them
Why would I slaughter them?
Who gave me this knife to kill them
With, how could I chop them up?

Survey my massacre
Fragments of my comrades carpet
The ground below
I want to escape
Stab myself suicide wake me up and set me free

Grotesque...mind...grotesque

Did I kill them?
Did I kill them?

NO REMORSE
(reprise de Metallica)

No mercy for what we are doing
No thought to even what we have done
We don't need to feel the sorrow
No remorse for the helpless one

War without end
No remorse No repent
We don't care what it meant
Another day Another death
Another sorrow Another breath
No remorse No repent
We don't care what it meant
Another day Another death
Another sorrow Another breath

Blood feeds the war machine
as it eats its way across the land
We don't need the feel the sorrow
No remorse is the one command

War without end
No remorse No repent
We don't care what it meant
Another day Another death
Another sorrow Another breath
No remorse No repent
We don't care what it meant
Another day Another death
Another sorrow Another breath

Only the strong survive
No one to save the weaker race
We are ready to kill all comers
Like a loaded gun right at your face

War without end
No remorse No repent
We don't care what it meant
Another day Another death
Another sorrow Another breath
No remorse No repent
We don't care what it meant
Another day Another death
Another sorrow Another breath

Attack
Bullets are flying
People are dying
With madness surrounding all hell's breaking loose
Soldiers are hounding
Bodies are mounting
cannons are shouting to take their abuse
With war machines going
Blood starts to flowing
No mercy given to anyone hear
The furious fighting
Swords are like lighting
It all becomes frightening to you
Know death is near
No remorse

POUNDED INTO DUST

Forces of hate meet
Gather for the siege
Encircling their foe
The raid begins
Their revenge is sought Through violence, smashing, killing, stabbing, pounding
Iron weapons clash
Evil warriors strike
Hammers cracking skulls
Axes chopping heads
Their revenge is now
Through violence, smashing, killing, stabbing, pounding

Blood soaks the ground
In their own, they will drown
Surrounded by disgust
Pounded into dust

Battle rages on
Bleeding wounded scream
Clubs shatter bones
Swords sever limbs
Their blind rage compells
Their frenzy, bloodlust, madness, burning, hatred
Berzerkers overwhelm
Defenders run in fear
No prisoners today
The end is near
Their blind age endless
No mercy lay waste, wipe out, kill them, kill them

Their struggle to defend
The attack will never end
Surrounded by disgust
Pounded into dust

The captured will be crucified as a warning to the rest

When the killing is completed the city will be burned
Their way of life will be destroyed, no trace of
them remains

Annihilate
They lay waste
Eradicate
Victory for their hatred, fury, raging, pounding

Blood soaks the ground
In their own, they will drown
Surrounded by disgust
Pounded into dust

DEAD HUMAN COLLECTION

I cannot scream, my mouth is wired shut
I cannot see, my eyes are filled with blood
I must die while suffering

Pawn of torturous punishment
Losing all reason to live
Cherishing this painful death
To become part of the

Dead human collection
Dead human collection

I cannot hear with punctured ear drums
I can barely breathe, My ribs are crushed
I will die while suffering

Maimed, repulsive menagerie
Collection for the insane
Closer to death I become
I want to be one with the dead
Collection of dead humans, dead
I want to be one with the dead
Collection of dead humans, dead
I want to be one of them

Compilation obscene
An assembely for psychotic malefaction
Virulent anarchy
The final member of this vile congreagation

I cannot scream, my mouth is wired rot
I cannot see, my eyes turned into dust
I died into the...

Dead human collection

Dead human

UNLEASHING THE BLOODTHIRSTY

Dormancy
Spirits await rebirth
From their sleep
They will soon awake
Restless dead
Catching the wiff of hate
Blood they anticipate
They will soon drink
Murderers
Subconscious attraction
On their graves
Blood will now spill
Ancient bones
Reform in grounds below
Born, as the blood will flow
Killing is all they know

Blood
They live, they thirst
Blood

Coalesce
Pieces become a whole
For their strength
Blood is absorbed
Rancorous
Aeons of building rage
Death an immortal cage
Now they are freed
Livid beasts

Rising now for revenge
From the past
Hate comes alive
Tenebrous
Restruct evil ones
The demons will come
Cruelity has just begun

Blood
They live, they thirst
Blood, blood

First one that they find
Attack the mortal
Claws tear at his face
Pull the flesh fro bone
Decapitate the man
They hold his head aloft
Headless body slumps
The blood is gushing out

Screaming victims fall
Repulsive beasts attack
Gore pours from the torso
Hellish creatures stab
Organs, grisly trophies
Rewards for their rage
Blood drips from their jaws
They disembowel the corpse

Kill with speed
Victims bleed
Wretched souls
Headless on poles

Savage thirst
Vesseles burst
Torn apart
Eat the heart

Vengeance taking form
Endless hatred for the living
Plunderng the world
Paroxysm of the damned
Rapture of their rage
Euphoria from butchery
A dark world will eclipse all life
Barbaric ways forever reign

Blood
They live, they thirst
Blood, blood

THE SPINE SPLITTER

Fragmentizing, disunite the backbone from the skeleton
Chop the bodies, specialized in customized
Dismemberment
Hatchet wielding, never ending thought of
splitered vertebrae

Violent insurgency

Squalid dependancy, ivory interspersion, solace
Riving the arteries, splenetic complacency, somber

Irascible, aggressive ripping head to crotch, life relieving
Propensity, consuming of the spinal cord, dead not living
Animus from perpetual authority, contumacious

Bone displacement surgery

Stagnant, pools of endtrails, permeates wretched odors, depraved
Corpses cloven spineless, ultimate pancrea ablate

Violent insurgency, pernicious way of life
Bone displacement surgery, division with an axe

Fragmentizing
Chop the bodies
Hatchet wielding
The spine splitter

Stagnant, pools of endtrails, permeates wretched odors, depraved
Corpses cloven spineless, ultimate pancrea ablate

Fragmentizing
Chop the bodies
Hatchet wielding
The spine splitting will never end

ECSTACY IN DECAY

Immence oceans of gore, rivers of pus, mountains of bones
Rapture, fester in filth, abnormal wealth, immenced in a
world of decadence

Ecstacy in decy, engrossed in deterioration
Penchant for exterem ordure
Pervading of vicera
Rejoice in gristly disgust

Exorbiant reality

One thousand years of compiled wste, frenzy in muck
intoxicates

Ecstacy in decy, engrossed in deterioration
Penchant for exterem ordure
Pervading of vicera
Rejoice in gristly disgust

Exuberant castigation

Wading in bile, soaking in guts, ancient inards
Immence oceans of gore, rivers of pus,
mountains of bones
Rapture, fester in filth, abnormal wealth
immenced in a world of decadence

Mind altered, eternally fetid cadaverous empire
Squelched domain
Swamped ruins, dismal necrotic incarnate
metropolis
Lost dwelling

Exorbiant reality
Obfuscated ossuary

One thousand years of compiled wste, frenzy in muck
intoxicates

RAPED BY THE BEAST

Black forest of evil, a demons possession
A beast in the wild with nocturnal dementia
Unearthly revival of clandestine extinction

Reborn creature, malicious being
Resurgance of a grusome species

With carnal obsession, it lusts copulation
Scent of fresh human blood invades its dominion
Surrounded in darkness, she enters a realm of hell

Infernal quest from a savage of death

Brutal attack, the innocent are unprotected
Hellish fury, deviance provides conception
Vicicious onslaught, its primal lust instinctual
Macabe fuckfest, inside her cunt, the
brute's erection

Raped by the beast

Anamialistic, pure hideous appearance
Repulsive re-existence, bearer of morbidity

(Solo - Owen)

Ritual, habitual

Black forest of evil, a demons possession
A beast in the wild with nocturnal dementia
Scent of fresh human blood invades its dominion
Surrounded in darkness, she enters a realm of hell

Raped by the beast

COFFINFEEDER

Exhume the rotted casket
Robbing graves
But not for wealth
Cloaked in moldy rags
Hunting dead
Decrepit things from hell

Invade the sacred tombs
Search for food
Embalmed five days before
Ancient body stealers
Raid again
A fresh corpse beyond the door

From the ground they rise
Plundering the grave
When the faithful die
Its them, not God they meet

Consume the rotted bod
And unt more
Craving maws ooze blood
Gray skinned coffinfeeders
Seekig carrion
Eat the old ones last
Fiendish ghouls are chewing
Scraps of meat
Found inside the tomb
Roy veiled messengers
From beyond, bring the parish doom

From the ground they rise
Plundering the grave
When the faithful die
Its them, not God they meet

Unholy creatures swarming the coffin
Fighting for mouthfuls of flesh
Invading the tombs of the recently buried, to feast

Starvation of aeons sated tonight
Foraging ghouls consume
Ancient hunger awakened again

Strengthened by blood the undead attack
Septic beats from the grave
If living approach they are devoured too

Fragments of corpses nourish the pack
Fresh entrails they crave
The coffin is torn open, the zombies start
to consume

From the ground they rise
Plundering the grave
When the faithful die
Its them, not God they meet

HACKSAW DECAPITATION

Memory of the insane
Of killing in so man ways, homicidal
Seeking redemption through rage
With hacksaws I decapitated them all

Blood covers the groud, my feet are saturaed
Rottig flesh scattered around, I feel no remorse

I don't remember my name
Or when blood of the dead flowed so relentlessly
Extracting the brains from the skulls
My anger evolves with the more heads I deform

Sawing the neck I am engulfed in fantasy
Chew the esophagus, cannibal delicacy

Utterly execerbated, forver deleterious

Slicing through skin, sundered larynx,
veins spraying blood
Tattered windpipe, facial carvings,
another head to abhor

Beheading sustains my desire
Enhancing my primitive mind
Annihilation without repreving

Memory of the insane
Of killing in so man ways, homicidal
Seeking redemption through rage
With hacksaws I decapitated them at will

Predacious, violent killing spree
Abolished, putrescent cadavers

Butchered in excrement, sordid obscurity
Feverish hunger to inhale the stench of their death

BLOWTORCH SLAUGHTER

Scourged through searing
Incandescence
Melt together
Fire torture brings me intense pain

Pre-destined to incinerate
The flesh is dripping from my face
My limbs and torso mold as one as my
blood is boiling

Blowtorch slaughter
Bodily capitiluation
Blowtorch slaughter

Blowtorch slaughter
Merciless disintegration

Pre-destined to incinerate
The flesh is dripping from my face
My limbs and torso mold as one as my
blood is boiling

Conflagration through my viens
Desensitized, charring skin, burnt within, branded
soul, torrid cruelity

Dwidle away, glowing heat to mutilate
Head set ablaze, consumed in fames I burn
to the ground
Blowtorch slaughter

Pre-destined to incinerate
The flesh is dripping from my face
My limbs and torso mold as one as my
blood is boiling

Blowtorch slaughter
Merciless disintegration
Fire torture takes me to my end

SICKENING METAMORPHOSIS

Change has begun

Freakish events
Led to this change
Convert the man
From the norm

Altration

Misshapen thoughts
Sickening metamorphosis

Twisting flesh
Ghastly face
Pain distress
Mind displace
Twisted flesh transforming appearnce of the
Ghastly face of the one that it chose
Pain distress of contortions and straining
Mind displaced as the spirit arose

Hideous one
Adapting fast
New skin grows out
Old skin peels off
Extra limbs sprout
Mutilation

Altration

Misshapen thoughts Sickening metamorphosis

Shifting bones
Gnarled limbs
Gruesome change
Features grim
Shifting bonestransforming the framework and the
Gnarled limbs are beginning to grow
Gruesome change to repellent appearance
Features grim in compelete overthrow

Tentacles extending from the face
Eyes are growing on his hands and back
Spikes and fangs cover his body
Skeleton re-shapes, bons pop and crack

A Monstrous thing he has become
Murderous compulsions flood his mind
Reconstruction reaches completion
He's no longer part of mandkind

CONDEMNED TO AGONY

Butchering the helpless
Was his way of life
Uncontrolled rage
Internal strife

The pain he dealt out was never repaid
Retribution was sought by the ones he had slain

Infernal phantasm
Condemned to agony
No escape after death
Condemned to agony

Heads of his victims
Have returned to haunt
Dripping with blood
Rotted and gaunt

The pain is reflected to him after death
With the victis of his knife, he is now beset

Reliving every crime
Condemned to agony
No escape from their hate
Condemned to agony, agony

He thought he got away
His crimes unpunished he took them to the grave
Their tortured souls are waiting

Now they make him pay
Exact their revenge using methods that he used
To make him understand them

To chop him up
Is their revege
With no remorse
They slash him, disfigure

Undying hate
His torment endless
He's torn apart and they cut the pieces smaller

The knife he used to maim
Is turned against him and now they will do the same
Dissect the man of evil

His fingers are cut off
And forced into his mouth so that he cannot scream
And in pain they revel

To chop him up
Is their revege
With no remorse
They slash him, disfigure

Abomination
Their creation
The man who killed them is now scattered
In the abyss

Infernal phantasm
Condemned to agony
No escape after death
Condemned to agony

STAINED SILVER

Pop culture with a pin
Watch it wheeze in the air like a dying balloon
A mistake dawned on me
And the rest of my tribe.
"Your wish is our command"
No really. It's OK
Give yourself a group hug and a pat on the back
No really. It's all right
Pose your best for a shot from the firing squad
Choosing my defense
I'll stay on the fence
Sneak a gun through the gates of heaven
Raiding tomorrow's prayers
With a stained silver bullet
Oh how it kills me waiting to follow through
On a dare
Pop culture with a pill
Watch it make all the worms in your mind disappear
Maybe so, maybe not
Never sure if it's me underneath a white sheet
Halloween, Halloween
With a mask I can be your new friend for a while
Trick or treat, trick or treat
There's a razorblade inside your candybar
Pop culture on your skin
You cannot keep your fingers away from your face
Memories are haunting me
Like fish foating dead at the top of a tank

INSPIRE

A vase of wilted flowers, for those who've lost their powers
No use in treading water, when there’s no air to breathe in

Help me find a way to move on, standing in the way of the sun
Help me find you, you, you, help you find me
Now who inspires you?

The moods are so abrasive, the sound is too persuasive
Come all the earth has gone straight, shall we go on one last date?

Help me find a way to move on, standing in the way of the sun
Help me find you, you, you, help you find me
Who inspires you?

I'm sorry to inform you, sometimes love can deform you
No time for hesitating, the rifle's cocked and waiting (aimed at me)

Help me find a way to move on, standing in the way of the sun
Help me find you, you, you, help you find me
Now who inspires you?

JOY OPPOSITES

He loves to hate, she hates to love, lonely above
His dirty mind, she just stays clean and sober

True romance in joy opposites always is the case
When you only enjoy taking on all the colors that surround you

She's on the fence, he's on the ground, laid our face down
She takes so long, he's hanging on forever

True romance in joy opposites always is the case
When you only enjoy taking on all the colors that surround you

Any of sign of life you might want to share with me tonight, oh
Oh, any sign of life you might want to share with me tonight, oh

He's always lost, she knows the way, softly he'll say,
"Can you bring me at your pace? Bring me at your place."

True romance in joy opposites always is the case
When you only enjoy taking on all the colors that surround you

True romance after all

True love in joy opposites always is the case

ANCHOR

Whatever makes you tired, the resting always fails
Because anywhere you lay yourself's a bed of nails
Whenever you exhale, I breathe it in the air
You offer me a seat in your electric chair

Are you safe to leave behind every anchor in your mind?
You know better than I do, so clue me in

And every day you ask yourself, "Why was I born?"
Because every migraine feels like wearing a crown of thorns
And all the time I find you crawling on all fours
Because any movement sends you falling through trap doors

Are you safe to leave behind every anchor in your mind?
You know better than I do, so clue me in

Your tongue in cheek
Too late it's already days and weeks before we can make ends meet
Am I right? And you're wrong?
Too late it already takes too long, too much to be flushed with you
Oh, too much to be flushed with you

Whatever makes you tired, the resting always fails
Because anywhere you lay yourself's a bed of nails

Are you safe to leave behind every anchor in your mind?
You know better than I do, so clue me in

BEAUTIFUL SON

Nothing in his mind, the rent there's much too high
Does it make him want to occupy this life?
Hiding all the things he prays the world won't find
Still it makes him run away so paranoid

Beautiful son, without your guns, you'd be someone

Nothing in his mind but childhood memories
Does it make him want to live those years again?
Hair is finally growing back over his wounds
Still it makes him want to hurt the ones he loves

Beautiful son, without your guns, you'd be someone

So the future never came, while the past is just the same
No, we both know you'll go far when you discover who you are
Who you are

Still on a mountain peak of anger, well
All that he can do is yell
To all of us down far, far below
But we all know

Beautiful son, without your guns, you'd be someone

SEA FROST

Dreaming lightly on your own
I wouldn't mind you being alone
Nothing here has been the same
Ever since this winter came
Seized the engine in my heart
And the cold could break my soul apart
Frozen on my knees i pray
Love will melt this all away
Dreaming lightly on my own
I wouldn't mind to be alone
I'm freezing
Dreaming lightly on your own
I wouldn't mind you being alone
Thought i may have spoke too soon
Now confusion fogs the moon
Dying for a yes or no
Life is full of maybe so's
Anything to break the ice
Love would more than just suffice
Dreaming lightly on my own
I wouldn't mind to be alone
I'm freezing

RUBBER AND GLUE

She's rubber and i am glue
She had a lot to say and stuck it to my brain
She is recovered and i am screwed
She had a lot to say and i'll take it to my grave
If I could make all of my words count
I'd ditch numbers all together for sure
Voice reversed yelling a curse towards
The way-back of my skull
Over and over again
She had a lot to say
Came by to water my flower bed
Oh what a big mistake, it rains here everyday
Damage-needle pinned to red
She had a lot to say and i'll take it to my grave
If i could make all of my words count
I'd ditch numbers all together for sure
Voice reversed yelling a curse towards
The way-back of my skull
Over and over again
This is more side effect than i expect
That boy is so glum
This is more side effect inside this wreck
That boy is so dumb
If i could make all of my words count
I'd ditch numbers all together for sure
Voice reversed yelling a curse towards
The way-back of my skull
Over and over again
She had a lot to say

YOUTH OVERRIDED

Voices keep me small
And tongue-tied to the wall
Breast-fed by the moon,
I've grown up too soon
Heart is the mind of the matter
What's the matter?
Is your heart palpitating yet?
Heart is the mind of he matter
What's the matter?
Is your heart palpitating yet?
Old and decided
Youth overrided
I just need something
I don't want to fear every dying year
Don't you dare tell me
I cannot be made to believe
That the rings under my eyes
Are really blessings in disguise
Heart is the mind of the matter
What's the matter?
Is your heart palpitating yet?
Heart is the mind of the matter
What's the matter?
Is your heart palpitating yet?
Old and decided
Youth overrided
I just need something
I don't want to fear every dying year
All these memories bailing out on me
Gone into the void
God must need them more anyway
Old and decided
Youth overrided
I just need something
I don't want tofear every dying year
Heart is the mind of the matter
What's the matter?
Is your heart palpitating yet?
Heart is the mind of the matter
What's the matter?
Is your heart palpitating yet?

BREATH OF WATER

It's time to tell the truth to anyone who cares
to know what brought him to this point
Curled up into a ball, his ??? the only things that could break his fall

Almost out of air, far beyond repair, doomed
The time is wearing thin, the technicolor's gone
See it all now in black and white

So now, please, it's your last drop of air
So now, breathe, and take your very first
Breath of water
Allow yourself this one
Breath of water
Allow yourelf this one
Allow yourself this one last breath

He ran away from home,
leaving a trace for friends to hunt and find him in the snow
But a scent is not enough,
and we're barely sure he's strong enough to survive the cold

Almost out of air, far beyond repair, doomed
The time is wearing thin, the technicolor's gone
See it all now in black and white

So now, please, it's your last drop of air
So now, breathe, and take your very first
Breath of water
Allow yourself this one
Breath of water
Allow yourelf this one
Allow yourself this one last breath

I'd rather spare the truth from anyone who cares
to know exactly how we found him
But it's time to share the truth with anyone who cares,
he goes out too deep alone

So now...

...breath of water
Allow yourself this one
Breath of water
Allow yourself this one
Allow yourself this one last breath

Water, breath of water, breath of water, water, water, breath of water

LOST IN THE AIR

Radar, you lost me
An impossible disguise
Men all around are searching hard
Nevermind, he's so long and gone
Boy, he's really hard to find!
And by design you know he won't be found
Lifted away
What a day to be lost in the air!
They won't come across me
Hiding in the sky
'Cause nobody walks without their heads
Pointed down at the ground in a daze
Well, it's amazing what you'd find
And by design you know i won't come down
Otherwise i'll crash into the ground
Lifted away
What a day to be lost in the air!

PENNY RACER

I finally learned to spit it out
An with that alone i've said too much
'Cause anything a secret
Is willing to be kept that way
Looking for the truths of mine?
They're found in every other line
Still looking for the truths of mine?
Many is a mood, oh my
Penny racer gone to Mars in flames
Ready as ever to survive
We'll survive
Everyone is an editor
Trying to get a read on me
The less complete a sentence is
The more i guess i tried to say
Looking for the truths of mine?
They're found in every other line
Sill looking for the truths of mine?
Many is a mood, oh my
Penny racer gone to Mars in flames
Ready as ever to survive
Everything is a problem
Is that why everybody answers all at once?
Everything is a problem in my mind
So why make it any harder on me?
They'll make you make it all right
Penny racer gone to Mars in flames
Ready as ever to survive

WOODWORK

My Roman numeral came
As "one" and "I" are both the same
She curves just like the wick
Of a burning candle's dancing flame
These vultures were in love,
Always circling high above
Picked each other apart,
Hungry for the other's heart

Real fun, let's all underachieve

Failed to dispel the myth
Every time is always ending with
The sharp end of a star
Stabbing me right through my heart
She's gone and I'm beyond
A color scheme of loneliness
Now my Roman numeral is lost
As "one" and "I" are now divorced
Your wishes are my command

Real fun, let's all underachieve

Crawling out of rotted woodwork
It stings to breathe
When I don't even know what to do with myself

Real fun, let's all underachieve

NEEDLED 24/7

Since day one I've been crass and far beyond.
I couldn't laugh, I couldn't cry ...Before you gauge me,
take a look at yourself. Condescending, outlivin' in a lie..

Despite all the pain in my heart grinding through,
it ain't due that you hate that I hate what you do

Despite all the piety you've been consuming thus far,
a backstabbing motherfucker to the bone is what you are

And everyday when the knife in my back starts to twinge n' turn,
My eyes are catching fire and my heart starts to burn.
A foot away from you is like a bit closer to heaven,
Then again it's like being needled 24/7

You look down to me to see the scum of the earth to be. Fuck yeah,
that's me, vile and obscene. Hey I ain't happy about it but at least
I don't judge and decree to be better than another human being.

Despite all the piety you've been consuming thus far,
a backstabbing motherfucker to the bone is what you are

And everyday when the knife in my back starts to twinge n' turn,
My eyes are catching fire and my heart starts to burn.
A foot away from you is like a bit closer to heaven,
Then again it's like being needled 24/7

SIXPOUNDER

Can you say what you can't do
In darkness of the eyes
The wrecking voice stain mirror
Awaiting the first sixpounder

I'm gonna show you battle
That's how the pain really is
A little piss to free you down
Like a spark resist you
Pounder!

War!
I refuse to be brought down by you
Places far away from watching you
Not only I've planned to get you off my way
I'm meant to blow you away...666 (...pounder)

Hey, what you said, that darkest time
I try to live all right
Little bits away for you
But you try to persuade me, bye!

Louder sixpounder!

Can you say what you can't do?
In darkness of the eyes
A little piss, to free you down
Like a spark resist you
Pounder!

War!
War!
I refuse to be brought down by you
Places far away from watching you
Not only I've planned to get you off my away
I'm meant to blow you away ...666

CHOKEHOLD (COCKED 'N LOADED)

Mine field is called the place I'm living in,
Carefully watching each and every step I take.
Bright white straight jacket chokes me off
My eyes are tired...

I... feel the cold steel on my forehead.
Like... binding pleasure of being dead.

Downward future! I descend...
Counterblast!
And chokehold til' the end...

I'm flushed like the booze I hammer down,
like a piece of trash to be kicked all around.
When would be a time for a better day?
My cocked 'n' loaded soulmate leads the way

BODOM BEACH TERROR

Let's go!

That's it, where to go?
Should I tell you where I wanna go?
We'll die there be motherfucking there broad away to be
All wilted way, I'll show you the place where I wanna die
We're gonna die in pain
Don't hurt my eyes, I feel the flame

Starts slowly die (...starts slowly die)
Words rising high (...words rising high)
We'll pay you the Bodom beach terror

I aim at the point where fire gets life
I play darkness strive
Watch your eyes and believe in your lie
Trust me before you die

Bodom beach terror!

Go go!
To the place where you really wanna go
From the dark away to hit lights, to hit that human light
One minute shape to hit time where you gonna go
I bet you're gonna hit ya to tear you down to a place you've never seen

I aim at the point where fire gets life
I play darkness strive
Watch your eyes and believe in your lie
Trust me before you die
Bodom beach terror!

Ooh right!

ANGELS DON'T KILL

I hear the first set going by
Watching myself slowly die
Sharp is bailing through my eyes
Slowly tearing me apart

What if the angel falls from grace?
Next, the fist that I get
Creeping out from the god damn eternal case
The rips on my eyes that show me... what black is!

Go!
Yeah I'll go!
It feels so cold
Yeah, I'll watch it die
I'll die alone!

I hear the first set walking by
Watching myself slowly die
Sharpening bailing through my heart
Slowly tearing me apart

When I heard it up here I said "angel"
Another angel, losing my way
Did you ever kill the pain in my heart?
Even though, they say angels don't kill

Go!
Yeah I'll go!
It feels so cold
Yeah, I'll watch it die
I'll die alone
Go!
Yeah I'll go
It feels so cold
Yeah, I'll watch it die
I'll die alone!!

TRIPLE CORPSE HAMMERBLOW

Like I said, I'm ready to go
Ease my pain desire
Last night I begged to god
Light my heart to fire

Let me pour some taste down
See my last silent pain desire
Let me take a last breath
Before I saw, blind my eyes

Triple corpse hammerblow
Triple corpse hammerblow

Don't push me...
Don't push me...
Don't push me!

Let it trust my great vow
Life goes away faster
Let it trust the meaning
Like life it was way before
Move away the blow out
Like it was by silent Bodom
The way it feels, like it feel before
How you feel, feel before!

Triple corpse hammerblow

Don't push me...
Don't push me...
Don't push me!

YOU'RE BETTER OFF DEAD

war-eyes!
What's the matter with you?
Whatcha trying to do?
We're wrecking the place...and I don't get it
And I'm gonna hurt you in any way
If you came to hear my apology--fuck you!
You can't do anything to back me down
...all the way to six feet Under!
I wonder "should I stop?"
till I see your fucking ass rot
Now you're in pieces and living alone
Till you knelt in the path of where I spat
And you hurt forever--it's like living in bondage--nothing special left

The creature there is mine, not your suffering
You don't consider it, why don't you understand?!

Ohhhhhohh,
The memories so bitter attacking me
Ooohhohohoh,
You're better off dead than fucking with me!
Ohooohhoooh
Wait, there ain't no tomorrow
Ohooohoho
Well let me tell you, give us the will to die

Hey, if you like me so dare,
so, I know why I stop
and the only one step right
and it's raining flesh of death.

LIL' BLOODED RIDIN' HOOD

Fire of the light, lil' blooded ridin' hood angel
Light before the night, dark you'd try
You try reversing the ray of fire
The ray amid sets your desire

I'll kill you!

Show me the signs of your silence
In the race of corpse alone
Take me down, oh please can I feel you
My lil' blooded ridin' hood

Die motherfuckers!

Little blood I'd blow away
For a second did I go
It's a loss!
But I'll follow you 'til the end of the world

I'll kill it for you
I hate you and I want you dead!

I'll kill you!

Show me the signs of your silence
In the race of corpse alone
Take me down, oh please can I feel you?
My lil' blooded ridin' hood

HATE CREW DEATHROLL

Hey! Don't tell us what you want,
cuz we don't give a fuck about you and your kind.
You! You better take a step back where ever the fuck you came from.
No! You ain't one of us and to be tag along you're too ugly and blunt.
Why?! Is it so hard to get that we don't need you, stupid cunt!

If you don't know how to resent one another, to gain the new form
of power, it'll get in to the point where no one gives a fuck what
you may think of us or what you may not.

Stop! Are you ever gonna stop tryin' to be on the way that we wanna go?
Fuck! It's pissing the fuck out of us when you don't understand the word 'no' !
Now, you're tellin' that you'll win the war that's only battled cuz you're
too dumb to die. That's right! You can take your war and shove it up your ass,
then close your eyes and say goodbye.

If you don't know how to resent one another, to gain the new form
of power, it'll get in to the point where no one gives a fuck what
you may think of us or what you may not.

We're hate crew, we stand and won't fall...
We're all for none and none for all.
Fuck you! We'll fight til' the last hit
And we sure as hell ain't taking no shit!

SILENT SCREAM

Nightmare!
Mass depression, silent screams out there
Damn it, into darkness
Something that'll never rise
Darkness!
In this something that the world that follows rhyme
Impetrate, simplest wine
Deep within my spine

Silent Scream!
Tearing it up in time
It'll die sucking the part where it'll die

Shout!
Another time
Evil hard knock game
Mistake!
Mistaken, something that's chewing you down
Scared!
Of dangers of light
Bury tainted guy
Grain...
Suffers rhyme
Hard is something that is destroyed

Silent Scream!
The worst of the bitterest sound
Evil does the light turn into stow

Light!
Free of dead
Humanity mayday
Destruction
To the end show
Preserved the nastiest prey...
Wake me up... and down
Infinity to prey
Selection to the later
It brought us the end of the day

Nightmare!
Mass depression, silent screams out there
Damn it, into darkness
Something that'll never rise

Innocent!
We're all gonna die!
Silent scream!
It's the end of light!

CLEANSATION

Go!
What do you expect from me!
Will I ever be who you want me to be?
Will I ever live up to your standards!
Will you always look down on me
Maybe Im not who you are!
Maybe I want to be myself
Live the life i've always dreamed about
This is not your path to choose...
Yes I taste it, yes I breathe it, yes I hate it, Yes I feel strain from
our SEPARATION!
But..this is my life, this is my life, my cleansation, our separation
This is my life, this is my life
Its not yours anymore
Why did you insist on ruling
Why did you try and control
Why didnt you ever listen to me?
Ignored me, like a DOG!
Maybe im glad we're apart
Maybe im glad we dont speak anymore
I feel better now, now that you are gone
Yes I taste it, yes I breathe it, yes I hate it, Yes I feel strain from
our SEPARATION!
But..this is my life, this is my life, my cleansation, a separation
This is my life, this is my life
Its not yours anymore (x2)
THIS IS MY LIFE! (x3)
NOW THAT YOUR GONE

THE IMPOSSIBILITY OF REASON

You preach to me as if it matters
Never worrying about yourself
Or the wrong you've done
Think you know the way
Want me to follow you
Selfish lies you're set out to prove
So what if you had your faith
You should realize
Realize that you're already dead

You fall
You fall face down in the sight of yourself
No one to pick you up
Look what our lives have become

I steal fraom you as if it matters
No remorse to me
Or the shame to come
Thought I knew the way
Never followed you
No more time to lose, does it bother you
So what if I had my faith
You should realize
Realize that I'm already dead

I fall
I fall face down in the sight of myself
No one to pick me up
Look what our lives have become

And that's why hell
Is the impossiblity of reason

PICTURES IN THE GOLD ROOM

Dark room opens
No light for years
No way to find out
How long has it Been

Screams heard from a distance
The shredding sounds of pain
Lookung for reasons
Slowly becoming Insane

Four eyes staring
Such evil eyes
Picturing them
No longer alive

Accidental
Unintentional
Years ago
There was loss of control
Constant horrific nightmares
Life turned into a deadly maze
The haunting sounds play on
No more bruised feelings

Can it shine through this
Will it ever shine
The pictures in the gold room

No light
Can be this bright
Death is only a way
Desire and temptation
I lost you

False hope and rejection
Revenge and repercussion

Rejection, revenge, false hope
Repercussion fade to extinction

No way to explain
The blame has to be given
A wrongful accusation
Only stirs the rage
A fire that cannot be put out
Can only enjoy the insanity
To become the nightmares
Will end the dreams

Cold winter chills
No escape
Will this ever end
This is the final maze

POWER TRIP

He had god-like power

Face to face
No time to waste
This is the time for revenge
Your claim to fame
Of crushing dreams
Your control has no hold on me

I hate the way
You have no shame
You act like nothing's happend
It's time to rise
The final fight
This is the last time

I will not fail again
I will not let you win
Fuck your power trip

I'll throw away
The wasted days
The chance for revenge
My claim to fame
Ended in vain
This was the last time

You are the one who's forsaken us all
Nothing has changed so together
We fall
I am the one who's led us to believe
You can't change me

DOWN AGAIN

How many times can it change
How long will i be restrained
It's appailing to think that
All my time seems to be wasted
Will it or is it only beginning

Here on the inside
My life is not over
I'm down again

Fake Smiles surround me all day
No More can I tolerate
These excuses or all this
Constant Pressure overloading
Make it stop, the fire's always burning

PURE HATRED

I have told you things need to change
You never listend or came to my aid
The vicious cycle has not changed
My times's spent rearranged

Motherfuck it all
I can't stand this
Remember then I said
Everyone makes me sick
Well nothing has changed

I hate everyone

The vicious cycle still remains
Constant clusterfuck, bloodstains
Ignorance, you kill for God
Expression not allowed

You fucked it up
With your motherfucking games
Remember when I said
I was so ashamed
Well nothing has changed

You have to
Pick and choose your fights
You have to
Come out of this alive

I have told you things need to change
You never listend,never came to my aid
The vicious cycle still not changed
My judgement fades away

You'll never change me
Remember we are through
I am staying here
To betray all of you
And nothing will change

THE DEHUMANIZING PROCESS

Explode

Clear the way, the new king has arrived
To take your place while I've got you on your knees
I always had this vision of who I'd become
A powerful giant who could rule with ease
And who would

Bring the truth
I will bring the truth
Your time is up - ther's no chance left for you

Bring the truth
I will bring the truth
Your time is up as I end it for you

Was it me or were you just afraid
When you promised me nothing but a throne
When time comes you will hide the fact
That you will only be one way
A fake Liar

You can try to hide
It will all come back to you
You shatter dreams before they're fully dreamt
You're a pig and should die
I would feel no remorse
I honestly absolutely fucking hate you
Hate you

You can't change this
The only thing you have to remember is

Bury my dreams... I will bury you

CRAWL

As i lay this all to rest
Shadows appear reminding me
Of all things left unsaid by me

Maybe one day you'll believe
That I will crawl
I will crawl on broken knees

It's beyond what you really need
Forcing it all out of you
Will I make your life complete
Come clean

Am I the sorrow
that you won't reap
Am I the secret
that you can't keep
Well I won't
until I'm complete
And I won't stop
until you believe
I won't stop until you need me

STIGMURDER

Ever want to commit murder
Feel the rush as you kill
Looking into dead eyes
Collecting their last thoughts
Sometimes I feel no remorse
Sometimes I want a taste
Why am I so different
Than those who can just do it

I want to change what I've become
But I can't kill the urge
But I can't kill the urge
You are now mine forever
Walk with me one last time
You'll walk with me one last time

I feel you embracing
You wish it would end
I feel life for the first
Time i ever have

You cannot fuck with me
Like you have in the past
This time I will stop you
Dead in your fucking tracks
Your eyes close away
As I feel salvation
Now you pray
Light, the final vision
Your exes are black

I want to commit murder
Feel the rush as I kill
Looking into dead eyes
Collecting your last thoughts
I never feel remorse
Now I want a taste
I know I'm no different
Than those who can just do it

I want to change what I've become
But I can't kill the urge
I can't kill the urge
You are now mine forever

EYES OF A CRIMINAL

This rage has overcome
No more will I shun
These thoughts I've had
This lie I've lived
I let them put the blame on me
Engulfed in hate
Retaliate
You can't conceal these thoughts
You can't diguise this rage

You have
Overstepped
Your boundaries
Now I've got

I've got your back against the wall
Forever trapped
Staring through the eyes of a criminal

A broken home
Left alone
An excuse you used
Don't bullshit me
Save all the breath that you can breathe
Engulfed in flames
Incinerate
You can't conceal my thoughts
And you can't disguise my hate

Staring through my eyes

OVERLOOKED

Closing comments made you wonder
What was the start of it all
Hunting to find the answers
Unavailing attempts to be me

Hey
Did we distract you
Did we prevent you
Did we bore you
Did we stop you

And I'm
Betrayed by you
Won't be overlooked by you
Betrayed
Betrayed

Hoped you were thinking of redemption
Found out you erased the memories
Erased the thought of me
How can I believe in this untrue

I know I'm not insane

Come take a look in my eyes

ESCAPE FROM HELLVIEW

The fire dies on its own
Leaving us to ourselves but not exactly alone
I think that something is out there waiting
Anticipation has grown
The air as black as can be
Can't even see that my hand is in front of me
I'm overhearing a whisper "they won't escape until the blood is set free"

So turn back the silence is deafening
Turn back don't let them see you again
They make the rounds at the midnight hour and
on the clock it's just a minute away

So we're hours awake and our only mistake is we bleed
And the hunger for the living helps them hunt it with the greatest of ease

Now I'm finding my friends
Hanging from trees, made a bed of a barbed wire fence
I'm on the loose with my neck in the noose but hey...
I enjoy the intense

So turn back the silence is deafening
Turn back don't let them see you again
They make the rounds at the midnight hour and
on the clock it's just a minute away

So we're hours awake and our only mistake is we bleed
And the hunger for the living helps them hunt it with the greatest of ease
No experience could ever match the sight of when a person is through
If it's the last thing I will do I'll be the one that will escape from Hellview...and I will

So turn back the silence is deafening
Turn back don't let them see you again
They make the rounds at the midnight hour and
on the clock it's just a minute away (twice)

So we're hours awake and our only mistake is we bleed
And the hunger for the living helps them hunt it with the greatest of ease
No experience could ever match the sight of when a person is through
If it's the last thing I will do I'll be the one that will escape from Hellview...and I will

FLESH INTO GEAR

I can't expect you to see
Me when I'm not around
And my voice is destroyed
By confinement of sound
I'm a human machine
Laced with hidden disease
If the future looks bleak
Then you're connected to me

Flesh into Gear
Myself appears dissected and pretentious
A simple sound a heavy side
You'll win the whole world over
You'll live in fear of being someone that you didn't want to
I realize your insecurities will get the best of you

A traitor's embrace
How foolish how wrong
Contained in one place
Anxiety spawns
Unopened reowned
What's needed upscaled
Digested inhaled
Unwilling unwound

Flesh into gear
Myself appears dissected and pretentious
A simple sound a heavy side
You'll win the whole world over
You'll live in fear of being someone that you didn't want to
I realize your insecurities will get the best of you

SINK INTO THE UNDERGROUND

I cant breathe I cant get this out

ATTACHED AT THE HIP

Failed attempts have turned us into one pathetic twisted wreck
All is eerie, you're standing near me
I feel you breathing down my neck

You don't need to be so shallow
Turn your head prepare to follow

Deep incision operation
The tourtured one becoming two
Involuntary , solitary
It's nice to have a point of view

Dependency
Separate we never will be
Attached at the hip to me
Separate we never will be
When theres no privacy
Separate we'll never be seen
Attached at the hip to me
(attached at the hip to me, attached at the hip to me)
a part of my anatomy

you don't have to be so shallow
turn your head prepare to follow

have you ever seen another lying in a pool of blood?

Separate we never will be
Attached at the hip to me
Separate we never will be
When theres no privacy
Separate we'll never be seen
Attached at the hip to me
(attached at the hip to me, attached at the hip to me)

FRENETIC AMNESIC

A blackout they peel him off the floor
Frenetic amnesic
He's delirious, he thinks hes been here before
Frenetic amnesic
No recall not one familiar face
Frenetic amnesic
The molded man has been completely erased
Frenetic amnesic

Everybodys after me
You could be the enemy
You seem too happy to reveal yourself
Theres no resentment here

Frenetic amnesic
Completely in the dark,
try to pave a way with no chance and no reason
Not knowing who you are, looking for the truth it aint there
And you cant believe them

Everybodys after me
You could be the enemy
You seem to happy to reveal yourself
Theres no resentment here
What you see is what you get
Two seconds later I forget
You seem to happy to reveal yourself
Theres no resentment here

No recall not one familiar face
Frenetic amnesic
The molded man has been completely erased
Frenetic amnesic
Frenetic amnesic

SHOCK AND TERROR

The psychotic dress the senseless feature
It terrifies every living creature
Predictability is wearing thin
Groundbreaking practice for the preacher

Clowns mortified by my expression
Breathing new life into invention
And gagging the maggots with a weary hand
Has failed to leave any impression

The shock and terror keeps me sane
The shock and terror keeps me sane
Does anybody feel the same?
The shock and terror keeps me sane

Up now for seven days and wired
The concept of sleep is way too tired
And I've dialed in a plan to reinstate
Your sense of humor has expired

The shock and terror keeps me sane
The shock and terror keeps me sane
Does anybody feel the same?
The shock and terror keeps me sane

PLASTIC PLAN

These things don't belong
On my list at all
Culture is white mixed with red
But I wont be caught dead

One day I'll try
To give the world a view
To alienate the prime
Performing is fictitious and confined
I believe I'll get through to you don't leave yourself entombed
Theres away to change a mind
Im waiting for you to realize that

We live within the plastic plan
Forming to ban the plastic plan

You've stayed away to long
Im aiming for you all

One day I'll try
To give the world a view
To alienate the prime
Performing is fictitious and confined
I believe I'll get through to you don't leave yourself entombed
Theres away to change a mind
Im waiting for you to realize that

We live within the plastic plan
Forming to ban the plastic plan
We live within the plastic plan
Forming to ban the plastic plan (2x)

INHUMAN CREATION STATION

Arriving in at work behind
Speed up the assembly line
Don't force units together
Follow the instruction sign
This isn't happening a fourth time

Work the parts responsibly
Piece them biologically
release them incomplete and
barely will they think or breathe
This isn't happening a fifth time
This blood is flowing through a warped mind

See what's inside all the things you can find
Can you see yourself doing that?
When you're out on the move seeking something to prove
Can you see yourself doing that?

You were in their design
Just thrown into a mind
And the world becomes our path

the homicidal divide
Manufacturer's pride
In the wake of aftermath

Compatible reality
Forming separate entities
Dead heads and holy water
We install the wants and needs

Work with the team to make the deadline

Modern man cannot survive
Drowning in formaldehyde
Inhuman creation station
That's where we control your lives

And it's been happening since the dawn of time

This blood's still flowing through a warped mind

See what's inside all the things you can find
Can you see yourself doing that?

When you're out on the move seeking something to prove
Can you see yourself doing that?

You were in their design
Just thrown into a mind
And the world becomes a path

the homicidal divide
Manufacturer's pride
In the wake of aftermath

SPORADIC MOVEMENT

Vital signs are slow and steady
so attentive still not ready
as I was just about to say
you are the one that's over
I am sporadic movement
you are sporadic movement
hate is turning into hunger
just the guy to pull me under
I am sporadic movement
you are sporadic
I involve you
the energy dissolves you
a transformation

a chemical in the brain is so loud
desision making, turning inside out
what you want nobody else has
a swift injection to contain this spaz

snake will burrow through my psyche
what it tskes to lash a strike and
as I was just about to say
you are the one that's over
I am sporadic movement
you are sporadic movement
hate is turning into hunger
just the guy to pull me under
I am sporadic movement
you are sporadic
I involve you
the energy dissolves you
a transformation

a chemical in the brain is so loud
desision making, turning inside out
what you want nobody else has
a swift injection to contain this spaz

I am sporadic movement
you are sporadic
a transformation!!!!

CLOSE YET FAR

Who said that I wasn't right
I've lived for years without a life
Don't have a soul on my side
Still ridiculed despite how hard that I have tried
Don't take me under your wing
I don't need a hand, don't need anything
Ive got a roof over my head
As if I'd rather be alone with me instead

Close yet far
Drop me a line and tell me how the hell you are
And I'll tip my hat to those who cant believe its me
And I never never never ever wanted this to be

I can hear the sounds of the city
Sunrise and set are the same to me
A hesitating pulse is good company
and my reflection offers no apology
but who said that I wasn't right?
And ive lived for years without a life
Don't have a soul on my side
Still ridiculed despite how hard that I have tried

Close yet far
Drop me a line and tell me how the hell you are
And I'll tip my hat to those who cat believe its me
And I never never never ever wanted this to be

Close yet far
Drop me a line and tell me how the hell you are
and I'll think of days when there was something to believe
And I never never never ever wanted this to be

FIEND

It's the darkest place
Like beneath the stairs
The "IT" it comes
And it takes me there
We take everything in sight
All through the night
Leaving scars
And crashing cars

Fiend for the fans and
Fodder for the press
Fiend for the fans and
Fodder for the press

It's my life
For everyone to see
For you a charade
For me a disease
Everything in sight
All through the night
Leaving scars
And fucking stars

Still reasoning my life

Fiend for the fans and
Fodder for the press
Fiend for the fans and
Fodder for the press

Still reasoning my life

It's do or die
It's do or die
It's do or die
Not for me!

Still reasoning my life

Fiend for the fans and
Fodder for the press
Fiend for the fans and
Fodder for the press

Still reasoning my life, fucker!!

GLOW

All my might
Is funeral flight
Tonight it glows for you
It's fueled with fire
A killing desire
For people you've screwed

So what you feel now
It's coming
And what you need now
It's coming
And what you feel now
It's coming
And what you need now
It's coming

Get it you want it I've got it
I'm gonna get it good
Get it I've got it you want it
I'm gonna get it

What doesn't kill
It surely will
Make I stronger still
I'm fueled with fire
A killing desire
For people you've screwed
Screwed

Get it you want it I've got it
I'm gonna get it good
Get it I've got it you want it
I'm gonna get it

Get it

It doesn't seem like you're yourself anymore
Just the other day I was saying to someone
I don't know what happened anymore
It's just not the same anymore

Get it you want it I've got it
I'm gonna get it good
Get it I've got it you want it
I'm gonna get it

Get it

WATERSHED

You did what you did
You're a fucked up kid
And now you sit and reflect
On all of the shit

Behind my back a leader with no skills
Just the site of you is making me ill
And now you want to run&run&run&run&run

Watershed
Watershed you've made your bed
Watershed
Watershed you've made your bed

The drive-thru window's calling you back kid
You lied, schemed and that is the truth of it
And now you want to run&run&run&run&run

Watershed
Watershed you've made your bed
Watershed
Watershed you've made your bed

You've made your bed
Now you'll lie in it

Lie in it...pull
Lie in it...pull

ONE STEP

Never again

All my life it's been much the same game
Altogether now who pass the blame game
I'm not the one so don't put your shame on
You're not the one that I put the blame on

There is nothing I would rather do then
Get up and explain life to you friend
There is nothing I would rather do then
Get up and explain life to you

One step forward
Two steps back
Three steps forward, Go

People want to come and take from me everything
People want to come and leave me with nothing
I'm not the one so don't put your shame on
You're not the one that I put the blame on

There is nothing I would rather do then
Get up and explain life to you friend
There is nothing I would rather do then
Get the fuck up and explain life to you

One step forward
Two steps back
Three steps forward, Go

Why do you hide
So afraid of what you'll leave behind
Why do you hide
So afraid of what you'll leave behind

One step forward
Two steps back
Three steps forward, Go

One step forward
Two steps back
Three steps forward, Go Go

Who put the blame on
Who put the blame on
Who put the blame on
It wasn't my fault

FRIEND?

Living a lie, let's not pretend
That you like me or we are friends
We can call it for the few
That are listening tonight
We'll divide the dream cut the loss
Feel no pain, you can fuck the fame
You can fuck the fame
For the ones that are listening

All this time that I called you friend
I won't be there for you again
All this time that I called you friend
I won't be there for you again
(x2)

Your future's bleak, you better save your skin
It's that flesh you smell, it's that skin you're in
Your soul is rotting as well as your inners
Your mind and teeth they're getting thinner
Selfish, selfsustaining
Regrets, unmistaking
Fuck the fame, you can fuck the fame
For the ones that are listening

All this time that I called you friend
I won't be there for you again
All this time that I called you friend
I won't be there for you again
(x2)

Sleep well, sleep tight
You know this song is about you don't you?
(x2)

All this time, i called you
All this time, i called you... Friend!

All this time that I called you friend
I won't be there for you again
All this time that I called you friend
I won't be there for you again
(x2)

I wont be there for you again (x3)

ROWBOAT

Love is in the air
Blinding me with smoke
You are the air I breathe
When I choke

Butterflies in the jar
Butterflies in the jar
Butterflies in the jar
So breathless

Get out of my rowboat

Captured my heart
Goodies in the basket
Stuttering the ways
I love you honey

Insects in your kiss
Insects in your kiss
Insects in your kiss
You are my sunshine

Hey, Get out of my rowboat

DROVE

Keep my enemies close to me
And I've been watching you closely
Yes I despise you mostly, yes you
You think you're tall for dogging me
You're small you see, a wannabe
A mirror of me stolen, my identity

Why'd I do it?
You drove me to it

You think you're tall for dogging me
You're small you see a wanna be
My mirror of me stolen, my identity
I keep my friends close to me
And I've been watching you closely
Yes I despise you mostly, yes you

Why'd I do it?
You drove me to it

You can take the high road
We'll play by my rules
You can take the high road
We'll play by my rules

Never, say never, say never, say never...

Why'd I do it?
You drove me to it
Drove

EMPTY JAR

Godless lot it's not a lot
But it's my lot in life
No fear is my weakness I hear
When faith has been denied

Godless lot it's not a lot
But it's my lot in life
No fear is my weakness I hear
When faith has been denied

Same as yesterday, confused

Walking through sticks using walking sticks
I've stuck to this so long
What I feel is so hard to deal
So I say so long

Walking through sticks using walking sticks
I've stuck to this so long
What I feel is so hard to deal
So I say so long

Same as yesterday confused

Mine is the empty jar, the empty!!

What you see
It isn't always, isn't always
And what you believe
It isn't always, isn't always

Mine is the empty jar, the empty!!

What you see
It isn't always, isn't always
What you believe
It isn't always what you believe

BECKONED

All dressed in black
Eyes of attack
Coming with one hand in pocket
To take from me
Sin in eyes I see
Sin is nice to me
Nothing left for me
Reality
Forget it

You have messed up
Can't do anything
And I have messed up
Can't do anything
You're just a fuckup
I'm just a fuckup
We're just two fuckups
At least were fucked up together

So sad to see you go
I said to myself you know
So sad to see a mind
Disappear through time
Lunacy's an argued taste
I guess there's no time to waste
Oh this time it's a passing phase
Reality
Forget it

You have messed up
Can't do anything
And I have messed up
Can't do anything
You're just a fuckup
I'm just a fuckup
We're just two fuckups
At least were fucked up together

We are two fuckups

You have messed up
Can't do anything
And I have messed up
Can't do anything
You're just a fuckup
I'm just a fuckup
We're just two fuckups
At least were fucked up together

Together, together
Together forever...on paper

REMEDY

I don't love how you love
but please don't leave me here alone
I don't feel how you feel
But it's my fault I'm bones

I don't die how you died
I can't just waste away
You keep changing your mind
Everyday

Refrain:
If it burns I'll be doing the same dream
If you fall I'll remember the same thing
I don't want your Remedy

I don't fall how you fall
I won't hold on you can't let go
When it's pain I feared
I made you take it slow

I don't cry how you cry
there's nothing left to me
you keep changing my life
everyday

Refrain x2

I don't want
I don't need
I don't want
Remedy

I don't want Remedy!

Refrain

SUFFOCATE

I could take every fucking word she says
Throw it in her face
but would she even care
I still remember when she looked at me
that frown upon her face
Trying to be sincere
I gathered all those little things she said
Kept them close to me
Trying to make this real
This cloud will alway hover over me
I'm leaving you today
'cause now I see

Refrain:
Suffocate, you suffocate
That you lie (I don't lie)
That your fake (I'm not a freak)
Suffocate, you suffocate
You always take (I don't take)
What you can (what I can)

I could take every fucking game you play
Blow it all away
but would you even care
I could take all those lies you said to me
Never go away
Never dissapear
This cloud will always hover over me
I'm leaving you today
'Cause now I see

Refrain x2

Now I'm far away from you (You're always far away)
I'll never bring back yesterday (bring back yesterday)
You're such a fake it's true
I can't believe the words you say
I'm far away from you
I'll never bring back yesterday

Refrain

I always take
What I can

CURE MY TRAGEDY

Remember all the times that we used to play
You were lost and i would save you
I don't think those feeling will ever fade
You born a part of me

Won't you cure my tragedy
Won't you cure my tragedy
Don't take her smile away from me
She's broken and I'm far away

Won't you cure my tragedy
Won't you cure my tragedy
Then i hope that you can hear me scream
Won't you cure my tragedy

When i sit and think of the days we shared
and the nights you covered before me
Every little thing that i ever did
You would stand by me
Everytime you would cry it would take my wind
My heart would break
If I could be strong like you were for me
You are my faith

Won't you cure my tragedy
Won't you cure my tragedy
Don't take her smile away from me
She's broken and I'm far away
If you made the world a stage for me
Then i hope that you could hear me scream
Can you hear me scream
Can you hear me scream

Won't you cure my tragedy
Won't you cure my tragedy
Don't take her smile away from me
She's broken and I'm far away
If you made the world a stage for me

I can't take this anymore
I can't take this anymore
Won't you take and give her pain to me
Cause my whole life I've made mistakes

STUPID GIRL

Wanna love ya
Wanna bug ya
Wanna squeeze ya
Stupid girl

Wanna touch ya,
Wanna take ya,
Wanna shut ya,
Stupid girl.

I can't take this,
Born to break this.

She's going away,
(She's going away)
What's wrong with my life today?
She's going away,
(She's going away)
What's wrong with my life today?
Stupid girl, Stupid girl

I'm a loner,
I'm a loser,
I'm a winner,
In my mind.

I'm a bad one,
I'm a good one,
I'm a sick one,
With a smile.

I can't take this,
Born to break this.

She's going away,
(She's going away)
What's wrong with my life today?
She's going away,
(She's going away)
What's wrong with my life today?
Stupid girl, Stupid girl

Stupid girl, Stupid girl

(whoa)

She's going away,
(She's going away)
What's wrong with my life today?
She's going away,
(She's going away)
What's wrong with my life today?
Stupid girl, Stupid girl

DON'T BELONG

My mind takes you to where you need to be
Cure for your heartbreak to take away the pain
I could describe each mistake for you
Tattoo it on my tainted heart

well I won't ever tell the world
that I don't belong
Please don't ever tell the world
That I don't belong
That I don't belong
Can you still feel me or did I slip away
A sick man, a monster, broken still today
I can't explain what happens to me
Caught in the game I've always starred
I could decribe each mistake for you
Tattoo it on my tainted heart

Well I won't ever change my ways
and I can't be strong
That I don't belong
and it's my own shame
I can't break your ways

Well I won't ever change my ways
and I can't be strong
please don't ever tell the world
that I don't belong
that I don't belong
that I don't belong

WASTED YEARS

There's a game life plays
makes you think you're everything they ever said you were
Like to take some time
Clear away everything I've planned

Was it life I've betrayed
for the shape that I'm in
It's not hard to fail
it's not easy to win
did I drink too much
could I disappear
and there's nothing that's left but wasted years
There's nothing left but wasted years
If I could change my life
Be a simple kind of man try to do the best I can
if I could take the sides
I'd derail every path I could
I'm about to die
won't you clear away from me give me strength to fly away

There's nothing left but wasted years x3

WHATEVER YOU BECAME

Whatever you became
Blame it on my fame
Always away from you
Sold my life for a song
Whatever you killed
The blood got on my face
See it took over you
and your minds nearly gone

Refrain:
and I can't change my ways
Sorry it's my fault
I wasn't there to see
Whatever you became
Whatever you became
Whatever you became

you blame it on blind faith
can't turn away from you
what's my life if your gone
Whatever you feel
I take it on my stage
I sing to the world for you
and I'm always alone

Refrain

I can see it all
You're so far away
I can't take this anymore
I can't live until I see your face
I can see it all
You're so far away
I can't take this anymore
I can't live until I see your face

Refrain

Somethings gone away
You've taken this from me
Until I see your face
I'm slipping away

SAD HAPPY

She was only 17
and forced to blame it on herself
that she hides away to tame the pain she feels
she was fallen to a scence
a drunken man a violent will
and the God that makes mistakes
and still pretends

Refrain:
and I'll be strong
and I will say
and I will take your pain away
and I'll be strong
and I will say
adn I will take your pain away

She was only trying to breath
her broken nails had sliced his skin
as he bruised her face she fades away again
when she came to at the scence
A fever wind and a match in hand
as she watched the flames she felt love again

Refrain

Can you feel?

Refrain

Can you feel?

RAIN SONG

When it rains I dont mind
Let me stand here all night
Did she take her whole life
Let me know she's alright

Refrain:
And every time it rains
I feel her holding me
And everytime it rains
Are the angels crying

I'll stay strong, I'll be fine
Carry on with my life
I still stare at the sky
Pray for rain, all the time
Why'd you run? Did you hide
Why'd you leave, no good bye
When the clouds, take the sky
Does a soul, give you life?

And every time it rains
I feel her holding me
And everytime it rains
Are the angels crying
And every time it rains
I feel her holding me
And everytime it rains
All the angels cry for you

I'll never be the same
I'll never be the same
be the same
be the same
be the same

And every time it rains
I feel her holding me
And everytime it rains
Are the angels crying
And every time it rains
I feel her holding me
And everytime it rains
Are the angels crying

THE DAY SEATTLE DIED

Turn all the lights down low
Try to fade your apathy
Made up a world where you can even be you
Star in a tragedy
Shadowed voice on an open court
And light up around the world just to hear you scream

Blown away by fame
We could all feel the shotgun hit the floor
Never learn in faith
If you can't believe

Drowning in misery
The nightmare begins when you close the door
You sat in your angry chair and stryed to be you
The needle became your queen
The drug had become your enemy
And music was just a way for you to bleed

Blown away by fame
We could all feel the shotgun hit the floor
Never learn in faith
If you can't believe

Blown away by fame
We could all feel the shotgun hit the floor
Never learn in faith
If you can't believe
and you won't believe
and he can't believe

Blown away by fame
We could all feel the shotgun hit the floor
Never learn in faith
If you can't believe

Blown away by fame
We could all feel the shotgun hit the floor
Never learn in faith
If you can't believe
and you won't believe
and he can't believe
and they won't believe
and they can't believe

CHANGE THE WORLD

thinking of the mess was made
you became a part of me
Thinking of the wish you made
to break free
Playing you like I can
shoving it in your face
this doesn't break your heart
I'm the one to blame

Refrain:
I never wanted to change your world
I always wanted the simple things
and whatever happens now
it can't be real

Thinking that you might betray
My own private fantasy
I'm the one that gives
what you need
playing you like I can
Shoving it in your face
if this doesn't tear you apart
I'm the one to blame

Refrain x2

Now you're gone
I feel betrayed
You can't blame me
you walked away
Now you're gone
You can't blame me
You walked away

Refrain x3

I never wanted to change your world
I always wanted the simple things

BLACK SUNDAY

I can't breath at all
It hurts to think
that a sound could heal my wounds
feeling I've been betrayed
Black Sunday still burns you in my thoughts
I can't sleep at all
Now you're gone away
I can't fake this anymore
Guess I could blame it all
on God's game
or explain what my life's for

Refrain:
Caught in a winters rain
I can't remember a word you said
Take away my fear please hold on to me
I'm falling
Falling

I will trade it all
for another day
just to feel you and your warmth
but even pictures fade
Black Sunday still burns you in my thoughts
I can't see at all
did you fly away
Did the stars shine bright for you
Guess I could blame it all
on God's game
it was fate that carried you

Refrain

You always take away
Take away
Take away

Refrain x2

and I'm falling
I'm falling
I'm falling
I'm falling
I'm falling

KILL THE MUSIC INDUSTRY

They change your faith
It's gone to far to name
the way you see
The things they'll change
Your life and control
your mind
I can't relate to it

Refrain:
Sick of all this monotany
Kill the fuckin' music industry

They trust the way they feel
in their minds its time
for us to scream
The things they'll change
your life and control
your mind
I can't relate to it

Refrain x2

Kill the fuckin' music industry!
Why?

Refrain x3

Kill the fuckin music industry! x4

In my place, in my place
Were lines that I couldn't change
I was lost, oh yeah

I was lost, I was lost
Crossed lines I shouldn't have crossed
I was lost, oh yeah

Yeah, how long must you wait for it?
Yeah, how long must you pay for it?
Yeah, how long must you wait for it?
For it

I was scared, I was scared
Tired and under-prepared
But I'll wait for it

And if you go, if you go
And leave me down here on my own
Then I'll wait for you, yeah

Yeah, how long must you wait for it?
Yeah, how long must you pay for it?
Yeah, how long must you wait for it?
For it

Singing please, please, please

Come on and sing it out to me, me
Come back and sing it.

In my place, in my place
Were lines that I couldn't change
And I was lost, oh yeah
Oh yeah

GOD PUT A SMILE UPON YOUR FACE

Where do we go, nobody knows
I've got a say, I'm on my way down
God give me style and give me grace
God put a smile upon my face

Where do we go to draw the line?
I've got a say, I wasted all your time, oh honey honey
Where do I go to fall from grace?
God put a smile upon your face, yeah

Now, when you work it out I'm worse than you
Yeah, when you work it out I want it too
Now, when you work out where to draw the line
Your guess is as good as mine

Where do we go, nobody knows
Don't ever say you're on your way down
When God gave you style and gave you grace
And put a smile upon your face, oh yeah

Now, when you work it out I'm worse than you
Yeah, when you work it out I want it too
Now, when you work out where to draw the line
Your guess is as good as mine
It's as good as mine
It's as good as mine
It's as good as mine
It's as good as mine
As good as mine
As good as mine
As good as mine

Where do we go, nobody knows
Don't ever say you're on your way down
When God gave you style and gave you grace
And put a smile upon your face.

THE SCIENTIST

Come up to meet you
Tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are
I had to find you
Tell you I need you
Tell you I'll set you apart
Tell me your secrets
And ask me your questions
Oh let's go back to the start
Running in circles
Coming in tails
Heads are a science apart

Nobody said it was easy
It's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
Oh take me back to the start

I was just guessing
At numbers and figures
Pulling the puzzles apart
Questions of science
Science and progress
Could not speak as loud as my heart
Tell me you love me
Come back and haunt me
Oh when I rush to the start
Running in circles
Chasing tails
Coming back as we are

Nobody said it was easy
Oh it's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard
I'm going back to the start.

CLOCKS

Lights go out and I can't be saved
Tides that I tried to swim against
Put me down upon my knees
Oh I beg, I beg and plead
Singing come out of things unsaid
Shoot an apple off my head
And trouble that can't be named
Tigers waiting to be tamed

Singing you are...
You are...

Confusion that never stops
Closing walls and ticking clocks
Gonna come back and take you home
I could not stop but you now know
Singing come out upon my seas
Curse missed opportunities
Am I a part of the cure
Or am I part of the disease

Singing you are...
You are...
You are...
You are...

And nothing else compares...

Home, home
Where I wanted to go...

DAYLIGHT

To my surprise
On my daylight
I saw sunrise
I saw sunlight

I am nothing
In the dark
And the clouds burst
To show the daylight

ooh in the sunshine
Yeah on a starry night
Ooh when I realise
Ooh couldn't live without
Ooh could i part without
Yeah

On a hilltop
On a sky rise
Like a firstborn
Child

On the full day
On the full flight
To feel darkness
In the daylight

ooh in the sunshine
Yeah on a starry night
Ooh when I realise
Ooh couldn't live without
Ooh could I part without
Daylight

Slowly breaking through the daylight... (x22)

GREEN EYES

Honey you are a rock
Upon which I stand
And I come here to talk
I hope you understand

That Green Eyes
Yeah, the spotlight shines upon you
And how could anybody deny you?

I came here with a load
And it feels so much lighter now I met you
And honey you should know
That I could never go on without you

Green Eyes

Honey you are the sea
Upon which I flow
And I came here to talk
I think you should know

That Green Eyes,
You're the one that I wanted to find
And anyone who tries to deny you
Must be out of their mind

Because I came here with a load
And it feels so much lighter since I met you
And honey you should know
That I could never go on without you

Green Eyes, Green Eyes...
Honey you are a rock
Upon which I stand

WARNING SIGN

A warning sign
I missed the good part, then I realised
I started looking and the bubble burst
I started looking for excuses

Come on in
I've gotta tell you what I state I'm in
I've gotta tell you in my loudest tones
That I started looking for a warning sign

When the truth is I miss you
Yeah the truth is that I miss you so

A warning sign
You came back to haunt me and I realised
That you were an island and I passed you by
You were an island to discover

Come on in
I've gotta tell you what a state I'm in
I've gotta tell you in my loudest tones
That I started looking for a warning sign

When the truth is I miss you
Yeah the truth is that I miss you so
And I'm tired
I should not have let you go

So I crawl back into your open arms
Yes I crawl back into your open arms
And I crawl back into your open arms
Yes I crawl back into your open arms

A WHISPER

A whisper, a whisper, a whisper, a whisper
A whisper, a whisper, a whisper, a whisper

I hear the sound like the ticking of clocks
Remember your face and remember to see when you are gone
I hear the sound like the ticking of clocks
Come back and look for me
Look for me when I am lost

Just a whisper, a whisper, a whisper, a whisper
Just a whisper, a whisper, a whisper, a whisper

Not since the day
When I still had these questions
Who just could blame
Shall I go forwards or backwards
Not since today
And I still get no answers

Just a whisper, a whisper, a whisper, a whisper
Just a whisper, a whisper, a whisper, a whisper

I hear the sound like the ticking of clocks
Remember your face and remember to see when you are gone
I hear the sound like the ticking of clocks
Come back and look for me
Look for me when I am lost

Just a whisper, a whisper, a whisper, a whisper
Just a whisper, a whisper, a whisper, a whisper

A RUSH OF BLOOD TO THE HEAD

You said I'm gonna buy this place and burn it down
I'm gonna put it six feet underground
Said I'm gonna buy this place and watch it fall
Stand here beside me baby in the crumbling walls

Oh I'm gonna buy this place and start a fire
Stand here until I fill all your heart's desires
Because I'm gonna buy this place and see it burn
And do back the things they did to you in return

Said I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war
If you can tell me something worth fighting for
Oh I'm gonna buy this place is what I said
Blame it upon a rush of blood to head

Honey, all the movements we're starting to make
See me crumble and fall on my face
And I know the mistakes that I made
See it all disappear without a trace
And they call as they beckon you on
They say start as you mean to go on

Start as you mean to go on

Said I'm gonna buy this place and see it go
Stand here beside me baby watch the orange glow
Some'll laugh, some just sit and cry
You just sit down then you wonder why

So I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war
If you can tell me something worth fighting for
And I'm gonna buy this place is what I said
Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head
To the head, oh

Honey, all the movements we're starting to make
See me crumble and fall on my face
And I know the mistakes that I made
See it all disappear without a trace
And they call as they beckon you on
They say start as you mean to go on

As you mean to go on, as you mean to go on

So meet me by the bridge
Oh meet me by the lake
When am I gonna see that pretty face again?
Meet me on the road
Meet me where I said
Blame it all upon a rush of blood to the head

AMSTERDAM

Come on, oh my star is fading
And I swerve out of control
If I, if I'd only waited
I'd not be stuck here in this hole

Come here, oh my star is fading
And I swerve out of control
And I swear I waited and waited
I've got to get out of this hole

But time is on your side
It's on your side now
Not pushing you down
And all around
It's no cause for concern

Come on, oh my star is fading
And I see no chance of release
And I know I'm dead on the surface
But I am screaming underneath

And time is on your side
It's on your side now
Not pushing you down
And all around
Oh it's no cause for concern

Stuck on the end
Of this ball and chain
And I'm on my way back down again
Stood on the edge
Tied to the noose
Sick to the stomach
You can say what you mean
But it won't change a thing
I'm sick of the secrets
Stood on the edge
Tied to the noose
But you came along and you cut me loose
You came along and you cut me loose... (x3)

ET APRÈS

D’accord on dit bonjour
D’accord on dit merci
D’accord on dit pardon
On fait ce qu’on nous dit
Et puis on applaudit encore

On le fait, et après et après
On le fait, et après et après

D’accord faire des études
D’accord faire des efforts
Courir, après l’argent
Courir perdre son temps
Se battre pour être les plus forts

On le fait, et après et après
On le fait et après et après

D’accord une vie sans histoire
On fait semblant d’y croire
Peut on y croire encore

On le fait et après et après
On s’y fait et après et après

D’accord je ne suis pas d’accord
Je veux pouvoir encore
Décider de mon sort
Vivre avant d’être mort
Vivre avant d’être mort et alors

On le fait et après et après
On le fait et après et après

LAISSEZ-MOI PARTIR

Je me vois tomber
Sans me retenir
Je me vois voler
Le temps d’un soupir
Je me vois pleurer
Ca me fait sourire

Je n’ai pas peur de mourir
Je vous laisse l’avenir
Je ne veux plus vivre ici
Laissez moi partir
Laissez moi partir

Je ne vois plus rien
Aucun souvenir
Qu’une vie de chien
Sans aucun plaisir
Laissez moi crever
Je veux en finir

Je n’ai pas peur de mourir
Je vous laisse l’avenir
Je ne veux plus vivre ici
Laissez moi partir
Laissez moi partir

Je me vois tomber
Sans me retenir
Laissez moi crever
Je veux en finir

Je n’ai pas peur de mourir
Je vous laisse l’avenir
Je ne veux plus vivre ici
Laissez moi partir
Laissez moi partir
Laissez moi partir
Laissez moi partir
Laissez moi partir
Laissez moi partir

RIEN À PERDRE

Imagine
Notre monde
Ce qu’il pourrait devenir
Pour une heure, une seconde
Si c’est nous notre avenir
Peut on faire ce qu’on peut dire

Puisqu’on n’a rien a perdre
Puisqu’ on a tout le temps
Plutôt que laisser faire
Faisons le maintenant

Essaie juste
Un instant
D’aller voir un peu plus loin
Ne pas vivre si souvent
Des histoires sans lendemain
Qui ne tente rien n’a rien

Puisqu’on n’a rien a perdre
Puisqu’ on a tout le temps
Plutôt que laisser faire
Faisons le maintenant

Ne pas se dire qu’on aurait pu
Ne pas se dire si j’avais su
Ne pas se dire c’est peine perdue

Puisqu’on n’a rien a perdre
Puisqu’ on a tout le temps
Plutôt que laisser faire
Faisons le maintenant
Puisqu’on n’a rien a perdre
Puisqu’ on a tout le temps
Plutôt que laisser faire
Faisons le maintenant

JE VEUX VIVRE

J’me fais du mal à m’faire du bien
Je me détruis par tous les moyens
Je tues le temps
Je m’évade comme je peux

Je me défonce, je me dépense
En m’excitant dans tous les sens
La nuit, l’alcool
Le son décollent ma tête

Je veux vivre comme je veux
Je peux même me dire, je suis heureux
Même si cette vie la, ne me mène a rien
Ca me mènera jusqu'à demain

J’me fais du mal a l’intérieur
Je garde au fond toutes mes douleurs
Je ne dis rien
Je garde ça pour moi

Un dernier verre, un somnifère
Pour oublier ce que je traîne
J’voudrais tellement
Te dire combien je t’aime

Je veux vivre comme je veux
Je peux même me dire, je suis heureux
Même si cette vie la, ne me mène a rien
Ca me mènera jusqu'à demain
Je veux vivre comme je veux
Je peux même me dire, je suis heureux
Même si cette vie la, ne me mène a rien
Ca me mènera jusqu'à demain

ÉPHÉMÈRE

De l’air qu’on respire
A l’eau des rivières
Du froid qui sévit
A la chaleur de la terre
Des larmes au sourire
On ne possède rien
Des coups durs au plaisir
On n’est maître de rien

Tout est si fragile,
Ephémère
La vie sur un fil,
Ephémère

Lumière facile
Electricité
Un battement de cils
La vie en gris foncé
Des la violence des cris
Aux douceurs du péché

DES HOMMES DE PASSAGE

Je revois ton visage au loin
Je revois ton image qui me tient
Nous ne sommes que des hommes de passage

Je revois ces chiens fous
Ce que je vois, ce que je vois c’est nous
Nous ne sommes que des hommes des hommes de passage
Comme l’éclair, comme l’éclair d’un orage

Je t’appelais, je t’appelais

Il y a des fois ou la lumière s’éteint
Il y a des fois, il y a des fois
Où l’on n’y peut rien

Nous ne sommes que des hommes des hommes de passage
Comme l’éclair, comme l’éclair d’un orage

Je t’appelais, je t’appelais
Je t’appelais, tu t’appelais

Adrien

Je t’appelais, je t’appelais

L’ÉTRANGER

Encore une nuit de passée
A me demander qui je suis
Encore me sentir étranger
Dans ce pays qui est le mien
Moi qui reste le fils d’ouvrier
Le fils de ceux qu’on a appelé
Quand il fallait tout reconstruire
De la main d’œuvre pour l’avenir

Regarde moi, regarde moi
Je n’suis pas l’étranger que tu vois
Comme toi, comme toi je veux vivre
Moi aussi, je suis né ici

Encore essayer d’exister
J’en prends tellement plein la gueule
Combien de temps pour imposer
Ma couleur, mon identité

Regarde moi, regarde moi
Je n’suis pas l’étranger que tu vois
Comme toi, comme toi je veux vivre
Moi aussi, je suis né ici

Regarde moi
Regarde toi

Regarde moi, regarde moi
Je n’suis pas l’étranger que tu vois
Comme toi, comme toi je veux vivre
Moi aussi, je suis né ici

TUE-MOI

Un goût de métal qui me monte à la bouche
Comme une balle que tu tires qui me touches
La douleur ne me quitte pas
Je ne te laisse pas le choix

Tue moi, tue moi
Mon amour, mon amour
Sauve moi, tue moi
Pour qu’enfin je ne sente plus rien

Des mots qui me font mal, qui me collent à la peau
Comme une lame, un couteau dans le dos
Si tu tires un trait sur moi
Je ne le supporterais pas

Tue moi, tue moi
Mon amour, mon amour
Sauve moi, tue moi
Pour qu’enfin je ne sente plus rien

Tue moi, tue moi
Mon amour, mon amour
Sauve moi, tue moi
Pour qu’enfin je ne sente plus rien

Tue moi
Tue moi
Sauve moi
Pour qu’enfin je ne sente plus rien

SANG MILITANT

Peux tu me réveiller
J’ai dû perdre conscience
Le monde peut s’écrouler
Je n’sais plus le défendre
La planète se défait
Je la regarde se fendre
Peux tu me réveiller
J’n’y arrive pas seul

Il faudrait que tu me donne
Quand la force m’abandonne
Un peu de sang militant
Un peu de sentiments

Peux tu me réveiller
J’ai dû perdre conscience
Les images encadrées
Influencent tous mes sens
Je ne sais plus penser
Penser sans référence
Peux tu me réveiller
J’n’y arrive pas seul

Il faudrait que tu me donne
Quand la force m’abandonne
Un peu de sang militant
Un peu de sentiments

Je ne veux plus penser
Penser sous influence
Je ne veux plus entrer
Entrer dans votre danse
Je veux me réveiller
Aide moi …

Il faudrait que tu me donne
Quand la force m’abandonne
Un peu de sang militant
Un peu de sentiments
Il faudrait que tu me donne
Quand la force m’abandonne
Un peu de sang militant
Un peu de sentiments

CONFITURE DE PERLES

De la diversion
Pour oublier l’essentiel
De la dissuasion
A coups de fhash balls dans la gueule

On se fout de vous
On se fout de nous
On se fout de tout

De la poudre aux yeux
Et des sourires pleins la bouche
Ici on n’est pas mieux que du côté de chez Bush

On se fout de vous
On se fout de nous
On se fout de tout
On se fout de vous
On se fout de nous
On se fout de tout

On se fout de vous
On se fout de nous
On se fout de tout
On se fout de vous
On se fout de nous
On se fout de tout

LES ANARCHISTES

Y’en pas un sur cent et pourtant ils existent
La plupart espagnols allez savoir pourquoi
Faut croire qu’en Espagne on ne les comprends pas
Les anarchistes
Ils ont tout ramassés
Des beignes et des pavés
Ils ont gueulé si fort
Qu’il peuvent gueuler encore
Ils ont le cœur devant
Et leurs rêves au mitan
Et puis l’âme toute rongée
Par des foutues idées
Les anarchistes

Y’en a pas un sur cent et pourtant ils existent
La plupart fils de rien ou bien fils de si peu
Qu’on ne les voit jamais que lorsqu’on a peur d’eux
Les anarchistes

Ils sont morts cent dix fois
Pour que dalle et pour quoi ?
Avec l’amour au poing
Sur la table ou sur rien
Avec l’air entêté
Qui fait le sang versé
Ils ont frappés si fort
Qu’ils peuvent frapper encore

Y’en a pas un sur cent et pourtant ils existent
Et s’il faut commencer par les coups d’pieds au cul
Faudrait pas oublier qu’ca descend dans la rue
Les anarchistes

Ils ont un drapeau noir
En berne sur l’espoir
Et la mélancolie
Pour traîner dans la vie
Des couteaux pour trancher
Le pain de l’amitié
Et des armes rouillées
Pour ne pas oublier

Qu’y’en a pas un sur cent et qu’pourtant ils existent
Et qu’ils se tiennent bien bras dessus bras dessous
Joyeux, et c’est pour ça qu’ils sont toujours debout
Les anarchistes

A BRUISE UPON THE SILENT MOON

"And the Earth was without form and void,
and darkness was upon the face of the deep..."

THE PROMISE OF FEVER

In the beginning
Rimmed with wind and storm
A great black wrath of infinite math
Spat snarling into form
And there was Heaven
Lit up with precious stones
Each one could fall but for the rule
Of Faith and love and stronger thrones

And therein rose vast wonders
Affections to be seen
Fathered from the plundered
Reflections of a dream

Fogging into nightmare
For him whose place was set
With wayward stars that absent, marred
All creation with their theft

In the beginning
Bewinged and ringed with dawn
This favoured Avatar, enthralled
Swansongs from those that thronged this shore
With Gabriel and Michael
He shone with fierce intent
For loyalty, their joy to see
Him spur the hymns to heaven (sent)

For sculptured lips of seraphim
Whom fate then cruelly rent
(With sleight fingered strains of harmony)
Each note to grim portent

As grinning nimbus gathered
Over spires arabesque
For Him that blazed with holy praise
That for a jealous God was meant

Shining Feriluce
Lustrous scourge of fallen spirits
Basked in glory, flew
To lakes in sacred altitudes

Sweet haunting music swathed the breeze
With curling tongues that lapped the lead
As through thick mountain mist (with thoughts adrift)
Until at last, past grasping trees

He paused to draught forbidden streams
That whispered siren promises
To drown his thirst (for sports amiss)

These waters held secrets
Like raped Russian dolls
Wherein evil and good
Tore his soul for control

And drunk with the verse of desire's first words
The weight of the universe
Slunk in rehearsed

Horror in numbers too great to discern
The rotting of worlds to the conqueror worm
And love a rare orchid so fragile in bloom
Espied gasping breath under dark sheeted moons

Shining Feriluce
Reflected in jaded mirror
Climbing from the noose
Of time in divine servitude

And thus a strange new melody
Of will and wanton fantasies
Whetted by the veiled, seen
Danced from his ashen lips
In red dawn scores, the silver scream
Of truth and her deleted scenes
Was taken up as far, it seemed
As God his words eclipsed

(Those waters hid visions
Like butchers in war
Perverting the course
Of life's blood evermore...)
In the beginning
Skinned well with gibbous tones
Of countenance and ignorance
In equal measures sewn
A marbled arc of Angels
Sworn to the morningstar
Shared His pride and deep inside
Felt Chill Shadows sweep their cards

HURT AND VIRTUE

Distant vistas
Swathed in the haze
Of the reddening sunset
Fell to whispers
'Neath stars that marred descending skies

From the cusp of midnight mountains
Wending as a mist
Rebels truced with Feriluce
(In truth, few could resist)
Came praising his hellraising through
The sparse and marble clime
Where Virtue bathed, their ravings made
Her fountains flood with wine

Lifted with the gift
Of their dark seductive songs
She drifted from the path
She was surely set upon

Courting chaos
Prized in sight
Of the covering angel
Taught in ways of
Smothering another lover
Other than God

Worshipped in each other's arms
Like spider eidolons
The moon conducted like a charm
Those strange attachments on
And this is how they came to be
Dragged before the throne
Through tongues that hung whilst theirs were run
On soft white throats and punctured moans

Though fated now than later
By his tutor that had been
He baited the Creator
With the future he had seen

Of Michael, psyched with jealousies
A reich right by His side
And worming Man about to be
The apple of His eye

His children lost to free will
And the cost of beaten hearts
Like the night 'twixt vice and Virtue
When Her kiss became a scar

Seraph enemies
Why has my lord forsaken my judgment
Am I not free as He to indulge my darkest fantasies?

From embittered lips
These words were slaved
Split with the whips
Of their witch hunt gathered

He sought Her grave
Midst drowning crowds that howled in rage...
Blasphemer!
Blasphemer!
Though she was gone
Not lyriced to the song of their spirited throng
But ghosted back where she belong...

A grace embracing Michael
In a lace of tears that bleared his pride
He swallowed
Blood followed
Though with spit for all things divine
Though with spit for all things so fucking blind

His seal He tore
And to the floor
He threw this tie to heaven
Signifying holy war

And watchful of this sign
A thousand flames, unauthorised
Left celestial posts
To coalesce and, unified
Return their fallen leader
As he turned one final time
And threw a glance
Like a downward lance
That stung like guilt in every mind

AN ENEMY LED THE TEMPEST

As pride precedes the downfall
So he took His place before the firewall
Of dissonant choirs whose faith in one
Was embraced in this wraith whose fate was hung

Between forgiveness and the damage done

An electric scent over drear decay
Lent a violent surge to their serenades
Through white glades as His winged parade
Bent to silhouette and to sharpen dull razors

Within vast skies unversed in starkness
His might grew
And blew light hues to grey...
And worse, a third of stars to darkness

Then thunder seethed
And wreathed in thickening night
A line was drawn midst wrong and right
And across the throat of thieves

As love fell choked, the tempest broke
From Heaven's farthest shore
Descending to eclipse all hope
Repentance might stay holy war

He would not heel nor fake a bow
Murmur curses to the wind
Enraged, he raved in balrog howls
Upon a storm firstborn of sin

Incensed anew, rebellious tore
Like frenzied beasts of prey
Through temple doors...
Thrown east before the midnight masses

And where once bliss reigned so serene
In sweeter glades
Now veins ran openly...
Like eyes that shed from kindred ashes

When suddenly
There shone a hideous light
And a voice like three insanities
Soared up in thistled speech

"Thou hast bred hate where there dwelt none
And for this grave mistake
How thou art fallen Morning Sun
The proud will be abased"

He would not heel nor fake a bow
Murmur curses to the wind
And lo, the wrath of god swept down...

"Thou art no more an angel filled
With light, but a leech to be abhorred
And thou shalt suffer My burning will"...
Quoth this raven: "Nevermore"

Nevermore

And with these words like heavy stone
Cast against that gilded throne
With many legions still in tow
He turned his wings to flee
His eyes a picture of distaste
Drawn to tears and in their place
The dawn of time and fates to face
Through all eternity...

I wept for him a deep red river
That ran like blood through scarred ravines
To sluice away the guilt that slithered
Like a serpent tongue to Eve
For once as I, in heaven climbed
Too high for truth to truly see
My sunken mind, drunken and blind
Saw the lie: The fool was Me...

Alone and cold, face to the crack
Beyond the dark gates with no way back
His crown of gold faded to black
Like a bruise upon the heart that lingers

With thrill-kill culture shock wave lengths
Of rope to hang high
Ten commandments by...
Snaked about his upraised fingers

DAMNED IN ANY LANGUAGE (A PLAGUE ON WORDS)

"And there was war in heaven.
Michael and his angels fought against the Dragon,
and the Dragon fought and his angels, and prevailed not.
Neither was their place found anymore in Heaven.
And the Great Dragon was cast out,
that old serpent called the devil
and Satan which deceiveth the whole world,
he was cast out into the Earth and his angels were cast out with him."
[Revelations 12:7-9]

BETTER TO REIGN IN HELL

Heart in hand passed clasp of pain
In dark lowland that set bad blood in veins
Burning, like penal fires roused to strain
The jagged-toothed skyline braced with crosses

The golden dawn
Lay lost to mist where
Emboldened thorns
Made their bed with toppled stones

He closed His eyes
Sunken to dream there
Of crow-black skies
And a great white empty throne
Horror stalked the bilious fogs
That balked his visions

He licked the spittle from the cheeks of the wry
And drifted back to when His stung its target
The sneer of Michael on a glorious high
Of angel dust and Virtue by his side

Drowning in the past
That downfall seemed like yesterday
Though blurred moons passed
As enemies in high places laughed

Moved to mirrors cracked with heavy lines
He rose snowblind, through shifting sands of time
Erased the trace and taste of bitter wines
The grapes of wrath grew fat on the vine

She came to Him
A little whip of tantrums
Thrashed on velvet skins
That lines Her wishbone Henge

Her name was Sin
A warming spurt of mantras
Splashed on occult tongues
That whispered sweet revenge

For the shame of their crawl from grace
Cold and hollow as the grave

And for a rape and ruinous scourge
Spared for souls that shared God's worship
For now their throats coated notes with dirge
That poured from parapets to the pits below

Drowning in the past
A wretched scream like yesterday
Died at last
With the rising of the revenant dark

All sharpened claws and blunt discharge

"I shall bow no more to the dogs of the Lord
Tearing at my carcass heart
I shall fall to my knees only at the keyholes
Of Virtue slipping into bondage masks...
Freewill made me better to reign in hell"

And with new wings
Unfurled and spoken
He took to things
That would desecrate the world

The seduction of both woman and man
For a bastard masterplan

Drowning out the past
Fool Fates unwound cruel yesterdays
beneath the stars
That staggered from the blast

SERPENT TONGUE

[Part 1]

So adept was unspoken Man
At dusting ledgers of the seraphim
That Lilith swept across the broken land
In a whirl of lust to pleasure him

This bland Adam, a reaper of the sun
In bone dry season, for Eve was busy sucking thumbs
Pricked in rosy gardens as he spattered into shells
And ran with morning fauna; His mastiffs and gazelle

Breathless as the wind
Adam, prowled, fell foul to Sin
But not before She spread Her grin
Across His silent lips
At crack of day, though what was shame?
The raptor's nest wherein they lay
Bore witness to Her soft parade
Of fingers come to grips

His undivine attention won
She deftly spun
From 'neath His thrusts to writhe above
In ecstasy
Pendulous She swung
As if her limbs imbibed His tongue
To spill, as with His rod
The secret name of God

But no seed passed those fruitful lips
For fearing Her who grasped, He slit
Her throat from ear to where She fled
With tail and blood between Her legsss...

[Part II]

So very kept was the virgin hand
That brushed the treasures of Utopia
And how the greed swept across the desert sands
In late August just to measure Her

This hallowed Eve, a creature of the moon
A simple dish born with a silver spoon
Giddy sniffing orchids that opened after dusk
Incubus and Prudence, two such swoon to touch Her

Restless as the skies
Temptation, bloomed, found room to rise
And snatching breaths between Her thighs
He crawled to Eve...
At dead of night, the sticky clime
Smelt perfect to this serpentine
This shining Angel
Palled in mysteries...

Her undivine attention won
He deftly spun
A web of for the one
Great sacred tree
Bejewelled and lit
As if a thousand shades did flit
About boughs of forbidden lore
Hidden for the want of more

And when seeds passed those fruitful lips
And Mankind basked in vast eclipse
A Devil shot of thin disguise
Surmised to better paradise

CARRION

Lurking in the shade
Of dark and fragrant trees
Shirking from the rage
That tore the heavens free
A vagrant Angel
His with span to see
The garden swell with terrors
To banish man and Eve

Another fall from grace
Whiplashed from the gates
Half-naked and insane
Full-blooded, breasted
Nerve ends tested
To behests of pain

A sombre lot to gain

A storm slid in
Borne by carnal winds
The upper ether thinned
And therein sat abominations

Satan seated there
Savouring the reek of desolation
Their dank despair
Moved His speech to leech the air

"Behold the golden door
To paradise is lost
So praise Me as you raised your Lord
And I shall thaw this gnawing frost"

Another fall from grace
Whiplashed from the gates
Half-naked and insane
And destined for a spiteful Fate
Wherein evil sought the shamed
As pawns in greater stakes
Across this cosmic game
To win the hand
Of darkness and
Set Her in her rightful place

"Cursed is the ground for thy sake;
in sorrow thou shalt eat of it all the days of thy life;
Thorns also and thistles shall bring it forth to thee;
and thou shalt eat the herb of the field;
In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread,
till thou return unto the ground;
for out of it was thou taken:
for dust thou art and unto dust shalt thou return."
[Genesis 3:17-19]

At the throat of the human race
With claws engorged and poised to rake
With that the pact was sealed
And as creation reeled
Bewitched oration filled
The hearts of all
Who came to crawl
Upon these earthen fields

A sombre lot to till

A wracked black acid song
Spat from the massive throng
Of Seraph knelt along
The deep red welt to domination

The deep red welt to domination

THE MORDANT LIQUOR OF TEARS

Instrumental

PRESENTS FROM THE POISON-HEARTED

Reigning at the feast of Phantasia
Heightened pleasures were endeavoured to bow
Before My coronation and vocal aspirations
To rule this fool creation fallen 'neath me now

I knew deep eyes
Of a distant Christ
Were scarred from afar under starry lustre

Sighting my recitals on the rites of vice
Perverting Virtue
Enslaving grace
Behind the glittering mask of pride
Saving face finding thorns to pierce His side

Desire, the fire
Spread hell throughout my soul
And higher the wire
The more I sought control

Straining from the leash in exultation
Head to the wind to breathe with ravenous lungs
The global scent of fornication
A writhe of many vipers deciphering tongues

I whispered schemes to dreamers then
To pursue an Eden
That screamed of me supreme again
As my world bloomed
So too the moon
Through Adam to Seth, Enos, Cainan
Mahalaleel and Jared blew
Perverting virtue
Enslaving grace
Behind the slippery guise of lies
Saving face making waves to drown their faith

Messiahs, Pariahs
Aeons reversed the two
This higher, their spires
The more cursed grew their roots
And suffering...

I swept cruel seas
On the galley of the shadow of death

A fist in the cunt of the spread horizon
A kiss for the sun risen red once dines on
The coast of Menses

Discharged from celestial wombs
A first degree murder of ravens
Followed in fugue through the crack of doom

The Goat of Mendes
I set regime
In the galley of the shadow of death...

Angels in raiments
As pure as coal
Taking their payments
In tortured mortal souls
A bold direction
The abyss edge
But on cold reflection
One they warmed to nonetheless

As they preyed the paths of the righteous
Through the myth of thistled orchard floors
Bearing gifts of plenitude, for
The apples of the Lord were rotten to the core

Temptation, my ambassador

Attila, Hesiod, Pharisees and Nero
All begged of Me for more

Down dark steps of history
I waged war with a heaven
I could not see...
Beyond my wildest fantasies

Throwing sixes over deadly sin
I traded whose who played to win
Skin for precious kin...
And that that wormed within

Staining the reams of revelation
Etching ever-afters in accursed verse
The limpid rags of resurrection
From papal parapets were to dirt dispersed
Desire, the flyers
Spread hell throughout their souls
And higher the fire
The more I held control

DOBERMAN PHARAOH

To and fro, through freeze and thaws
From zenith to nadir
The universal tug of war
Saw lines drawn in the sands appear
Divisions of a promised land
And Hell for those that dwelt
Beneath a Pharaoh's granite hand
Where death wed something else

Millennia swam passed
Since the covened Ark
Ran aground on Ararat...

But anew, tempered shadows grew
Out of Midian, strewing fear
Over verdant lawns, the resurgent storms
Led a desert son to sear

From the palace orchard I espied...
(Where swooning trees and moonless beams vied
For the painted eye of the royal bride
Whose gliding curves were deified)
...beyond Her grace where love would die
Wretched destiny arrive

Back and forth the prophet came
Riddled with a tongue of plagues
That would render might Egypt lame
If the rage of God stayed unassuaged...
I listened with a heavy heart
But unveiled to the threats
This Hebrew in a jackal's mask
Would dredge into effect

Thenceforth the Nile reddened
s if Set stretched His hand
To beset the damned

And bruised with flies
The skies grew leadened

But these miracles, feared
Were all but reared
By nature, whose law alone
Stood that revered

This hysteria passed, but still the mark
Of Yahveh burned on in the dark

One final time, on the steps to the shrine
Of Thoth, I twined with fate
"Let my people go"
"Still my word is no"
"Then Death shall be the deciding plague"

Since the crimes divine I left behind
I'd warred with every tribe that plied
In holy vestament, but with time
Bored sore of clawing what was mine
I laid my bones and made my throne
With a view to paradise

Thenceforth the heavens deafened
As if great beasts
Were unleashed to feast on man

And with carrion span
Michael was weaponed

To descend with scorn
A dark reform
Through Pi-Ramses
Skinning mine and Her firstborn

Thus suspiria passed each sacred mark
Of Yahveh, bleeding in the dark

With nauseous dawn, a cry, forlorn
Unified from plazas deep
The prophet's curse
Far worse had worked
To wrest the war in me from sleep

Drowned in light, a downward light
Bathed the snaking exodus
Through the wilderness
As the Aeons crept
Impressed with fresh bloodlust

BABALON A.D. (SO GLAD FOR THE MADNESS)

I bled on a pivotal stretch
Like a clockwork Christ
Bears sore stigmata, bored

And as I threw Job, I drove
Myself to a martyred wretch
To see if I drew pity
Or pretty litanies from the Lord

So the plot sickened
With the coming of days
Ill millennia thickened
With the claret I sprayed
And though they saw red
I left a dirty white stain
A splintered know in the grain
On Eden's marital aid

So glad for the madness

I walked the walls naked to the moon
In Sodom and Babylon
And through rich whores and corridors
Of the Vatican
I led a sordid Borgia on

I read the Urilia text
So that mortals wormed
As livebait for the dead

And as I broke hope, I choked
Another pope with manna peel
Dictating to DeSade
In the dark entrails of the Bastille
And as he wrote, I smote
A royal blow to the heads of France
And in the sheen of guillotines
I saw others, fallen, dance

I was an incurable
Necromantic old fool
A phagadaena that crawled
Drooling over the past
A rabid wolf in shawl
A razor's edge to the rule
That the stars overall
Were never destined to last

So glad for the madness

I furnaced dreams, a poet, for of sleep
Turning sermons with the smell
On Witchfinder fingers
Where bad memories lingered
Burning, as when Dante
Was freed to map Hell

I sired schemes and the means
To catch sight of the seams
And the vagaries inbetween...

And midst the lips and the curls
Of this cunt of a world
In glimpses I would see
A nymph with eyes for me

Eyes of fire that set all life aflame
Lights that surpassed art
In sight, that no intense device of pain
Could prise their secrets from my heart

I knew not her name
Though her kiss was the same
Without a whisper of shame
As either Virtue or Sin's
And pressed to Her curve
I felt my destiny swerve
From damnation reserved
To a permanent grin...

So glad for the madness

A SCARLET WITCH LIT THE SEASON

Instrumental

MANNEQUIN

Burning flesh,
Dripping sweat,
Using them all,
like the paralyzing snake,
Charmed and enchanted by the babylon whore.

Led to other worlds
By the girls she curled within
I took their skins to see Her
Be my mannequin

Be my mannequin

I cannot remember
How it was that we first met
Curve of moon and haunted shore
The stars were not those Heaven sent

Did we come together
At masked palatial Balls
In silks and flesh and leather
Or did we come at all?
I dreamt a midnight castle
The eerie song of wolves
And eyes that danced with fire
As they have forever more

Our rites of sin
Have long fathered a hymn
To burden Him
Whom by slip of after whim
At genesis
Dressed Her like the wind
In Autumn gowns
That pinned Her down
To be my mannequin

Be my mannequin

Always poised on winter
But never would She break
My lovecraft and black witch heart
That pounded in Her wake

We kissed on distant balconies
A law unto Her own
Thirteenth dark commandment
Of figures pressed to stone
Turning cream with fantasies
That God alone would know
We graced vomitorium
With the sweet excess of Rome

Flagrant in the past
Our names were deeply carved
On the tree of life in long dead languages

Led to other worlds
By the girls she curled within
I took their skins to see Her
Be my mannequin

Be my mannequin

I tongued the nuns at Louviers
But not one word possessed
Her divine right, an archetype
For mortal Goddesses...

THANK GOD FOR THE SUFFERING

I, I still recall, the first fullmoon of May
'Neath whose rays we lay together
And those bright nights on glassy waves
When we would glide lightly away
From the grain
For wicked flights of pleasure

Those visions fade
Like ghosts to life's parade
Though incisions once made her so vivid
A scarlet whore
With both heels in the door
Of a heaven severed from me, insipid

And midst the writhe of parapets
Where angels sigh, lonely she sits
Upon the lip
Only a slip from whence I beg Her

That I would wish
Her kiss a chrysalis
To break to make my fluttered heart amiss
And in those frozen moments won
From grief that creeps to wreathe the sun
in drapes inwove with deathshead wing
I thank God for the suffering

Love would have conquered all
But for the Rapture
That ancient plan for my defeat
Denied Faith skies that would have set Her free
It seems again dreams wend to capture

Once dancing in a spotlit waltz
Through shadowed dimension
Given to the rivers that bedizened Her eyes
The world drifted by in lost momentum

With no divine intervention

Regardless that the author
Of sin was me and I
Lay chaste of hate in Faith's embrace
As Mortals warred with more besides

They warred with life itself

And in those frozen moments won
From grief that creeps to wreathe the sun
In drapes inwove with deathshead wing
I thank God for the suffering

And I thank God for the suffering
As still I burn
For Her return
I would make my peace with everything

I, I still recall, the first fullmoon of May
Consigned to flames like secret letters
And midst the writhe of parapets
Where angels sigh, lonely she sits
Upon the lip
Only a slip from whence I beg her

That I would wish
Her kiss a chrysalis
To break to make my fluttered heart amiss
And in those frozen moments won
From grief that creeps to wreathe the sun
In drapes inwove with deathshead wing
I thank God for the suffering

Love would have conquered all
Were we not parted
Her splintered loss rekindles rage
The winter frost dwindles across my stage
Lit up once more to score finales started

Love would have conquered all
Love would have conquered...
Hate

THE SMOKE OF HER BURNING

Earth and sea cower from my screams
As I climb into the skies
Atop sins towered heaven high for me
From whence I see no reason why
I should not smite with vengeance
And hurl thieves down from paradise
For storms before were as nothing more
Than a breeze next to this night

I am Methuselah of the Tribulation
The Moonchild come to harm
A riot of stars shaken from their station

The choking smoke of Jerusalem burning
Six vices become wrath

And though half-blind with ravening
Like Phineus now I see
The end declared from the beginning
Love won through my defeat
But now I fear I will never peer
On Her radiance again
I shall glimpse instead, the slurried red
Of faces pressed to bloodstained panes

Betrayed and played by God
Who alone but He
Scapegraced and goated me?
Now I wish to piss on His parade

Angels, clawed with burnished wings
Still loyal, kiss the seal
Bent on knees and harrowing
Promise overkill

Know that you shall die like whores
And the cries of your writhings shall rise
To please their Lord...
So before the sword
Side with me in slaughter

I am Methuselah of the Tribulation
The Moonchild come to harm
The spoken horns of desolation

Drink the pouring of my fury
Those darkened waters spur
The brink of war as my judge and jury
And rapist executioner
Our time is short, the horsemen ride
A foul-breathed chora howls, besides
Damnation and a day has passed
This divine right to genocide

Weld the gates to heaven shut
The abyss leers in hissing ruts
Unhilt the black grimoire of death
Inscribe all names that God has left

I lived the drams of nymphs and men
But now the nightmares come again

Now the nightmares come again...

END OF DAZE

"And the Earth was without form and void,
and darkness was upon the face of the deep"

DECORATED

Nothing comes from nowhere
One thing remains and I swear
Nail polish cellophane hair
Bleached, blonde burned down to the brain
I can't complain there's no shame in no fame
And still it all remains the same
And I want this game over
It's a fight to stay sober

And I got the pills for the pain the pain (pills for the pain)
Deep down inside I've got to chill and refrian (I'm going insane)
These crazy thoughts are running round my brain
They're leading me to places decorated in flames
Dec-dec-dec-dec-dec-dec-decorated in flames
I'm highly decorated
Decorated in flames, decorated in flames, decorated in flames

Who you motherfuckers think you are
Crazy Town him 'em hard like our boy Bernard
Clenched fists as I pace the yeard
So many tattoos I ain't got no room for scars
Escaped them all maked a brother break the law
Skip trial and escape tomorrow
Til I end up in the courtroom
White chucks, hair spiked up
With my double fat laces on
And I want this game over
It's a fight to let this life pass by you
And try to stay sober
Till the weed and the pipe with Ley come over
Till we fail again its pales of hen
So many tattoos the feds can't see my skin
So I think about my cell again
And my friends do you realize what kind of hell I'm in

And I got the pills for the pain the pain (pills for the pain)
Deep down inside I've got to chill and refrian (I'm going insane)
These crazy thoughts are running round my brain
They're leading me to places decorated in flames
Dec-dec-dec-dec-dec-dec-decorated in flames
I'm highly decorated
Decorated in flames, decorated in flames, decorated in flames

Tire tracks running down my veins
Dirty black slacks with the chrome hearts chaing
Got a record so dope they got to cut it the cane
I know you konw the face do you know the name
I know you seen the stars in magazines
Got drug dealers, street hookers, crooks and fiends
Me I'm hooked on Kush smoking northern green
Catching cheap thrills off the pills I fiend

HURT YOU SO BAD

Now let me state it for the record
I'm jaded but when you looked at me
I couldn't escape it
I really hate it when I'm out of control
But baby after the show
My mind just wouldn't let go
Tell me was it a hallucination
That made me feel so alone
And even though I have never met you before
I can't get you out of my head
Now I'm pouring out my heart for you

I never meant to hurt you so bad
I'm just trying to get over you
I hope you never meant to hurt me so bad
Don't you feel the same way too

So now I sit and think of what I can say
When you look at me to re-ignite the connection
I'm gonna take you to a place beyond time
Somewhere that we've never been
Someplace that I couldn't find
Tell me if you're feeling my addiction
Without you I just can't disguise
How much I need to see your face one more time
I can't get you out of my head
Now I'm pouring out my heart for you

I never meant to hurt you so bad
I'm just trying to get over you
I hope you never meant to hurt me so bad
Don't you feel the same way too

DROWNING

Everything is so complex
Everyday is like a test full of opsticals
That almost seem impossible

And I’m thinking just another breath not a minute left.
How long have I been drinking?

Pass the glass pint hit the flash light now break it.
People say I’m a star but I still think ill never make it.

And I’m thinking just another prayer not a second left.
I feel there’s something missing

Sometimes I hate that chaos surrounds me when all the answers I see go around me.
Am I drowning?
Am I fading away?
OR am I living up to all your dreams that made me this way?
Am I drowning?
Am I drowning?
Am I drowning?
Am I drowning?

I’ve been to hell and back looking for the answers to life.
Looking at myself trying to get things right.

And I’m feeling just another breath not a minute left.
I feel the darkness lifting.

There was a time
That I questioned if Id ever be alright.
Running getting high staying trapped by sleepless nights.

And I’m thinking just another breath not a minute left.
I feel there’s something missing.

I’m running from myself and all the things I don’t like.
Living every night like it’s the last night.

And I’m thinking just another prayer not a second left.
I need to stop resisting.

Sometimes I hate that chaos surrounds me when all the answers I see go around me.
Am I drowning?
Am I fading away?
OR am I living up to all your dreams that made me this way?
Am I drowning?
Am I drowning?
Am I drowning?
Am I drowning?

Drowning in the drama lost in the lies trapped by the currents of life caught in the rip tides.

Drowning in the drama lost in the lies trapped by the currents of life caught in the rip tides.

Am I drowning?
Am I drowning?
Am I drowning?
Am I drowning?

Sometimes I hate that chaos surrounds me when all the answers I see go around me.
Am I drowning?
Am I fading away?
OR am I living up to all your dreams that made me this way?
Am I drowning?

CHANGE

Now in these cynical times
Sterotypical minds
Got me falling from my pinnacle the minute I climb
Now these subliminal thoughts got individuals blind
I'm trying to look beyond the lies
Just to see what I'll find
I'm like a flower in a cave
Another hour in the maze
And I'll cower to the power of my criminal ways
The sun is shining but I'm catching minimal rays
It's time for me to grow out of this childish phase
My life is like a battle that I'll probably never win
'Cause I keep thinking big and risking everything
Life's a challenge and I wonder if I'll ever find the balance
Mixed emotions and confusion topped off with many talents

Sometimes I wonder if I'll ever change
Can I change
Would I change
Or am I always gonna be the same
I blame the world for making me such a freak
But the world wants to blame it on me
(my life is twisted)

My finger's pointing in the mirror
I'm the one now
I see my shadow in the sun dial
Am I really out of change
Put my freedom in a cage
Slow down
Man I got a son now
There's nothing new thay all said it
And I know it but I had to go throught it myself
I'm hard-headed
That's the only way I'll learn
Get caught in the fire ther's no escaping the burn
And it burns
Change this
Change that
Change is full of lies
I remain the same cat wear a good disquise
Living life loking through my third blind crooked eye
So if I change I'd be changing for the worst wouldn't I?

Sometimes I wonder if I'll ever change
Can I change
Would I change
Or am I always gonna be the same
I blame the world for making me such a freak
But the world wants to blame it on me
(my life is twisted)

I wanna run but if I run I'm only running form myself
Would it be easier if I were someone else
I'm like a child playin' with matches that's never beeen burned
Relearning all the lessons that I've already learned
On a highway to a destinatin I've earned
So many exits, but I've never bothered to turn
I'm like a piece of shard glass laying on a frame of a window
That was broken by the bricks of pain
Sometimes I feel just like the devil's guinea pig
He's watching me just to see how deep I can dig
I admit I'm fucked up and got a lot to learn
So now I'm dancing in the ashes of the bridge I've burned

Sometimes I wonder if I'll ever change
Can I change
Would I change
Or am I always gonna be the same
I blame the world for making me such a freak
But the world wants to blame it on me
(my life is twisted)

CANDY COATED

Now can you hear the cling-clang of my ball and chain gang?
The sound of heavy metal that tastes like cellophone
Collapsing every vein like umbrellas in heavy rain
My passion is pain
I do dirt to bury shame
I'm victimized an instituion's no solution
A place where you're defenseless and guilt's the prosecution
Where necks are bound into slipknots of shallow souls
Walking narrow roads to be hung frok gallows poles
Nobody knows me success has exposed me
To narrow-minded souls with goals to overthrow me
Suppose that i chose to live my life low-key
Would you act like you could teach
When there is nothing you can show me
Don't you understand i'm the head of the class
A straight - A student not regretting the past

You see i'm ok now but i dont think it will last
Because reality is something i can't seem to grasp
Candy-coated pain is like a ball and chain
Pulling me closer to death, i feel closer to death now
Candy-coated pain is like a ball and chain
We only dig deeper by running away

It's deeper than what it looks like
We never got an equal shot so we took mics
Packed the candy-coated pain in the first pipe
That said my name and the candy-coated pain is the worst type
You got it nice my every day is like your worst night
The world is digging in my wounds screaming out i bet it hurts right?
But it hurts more i got regrets but
i'm glad i took the prize behind the fisrt door
What's the hurt for?
Everybody hungers peace but they thirst war
It's crazy i'm not complaining because i probably would have tried better
And if the people that i trusted weren't lie tellers
So keep your candy-coated pain to make the vibe better
Now all the songs i'm writing sound like suicide letters

You see i'm ok now but i dont think it will last
Because reality is something i can't seem to grasp
Candy-coated pain is like a ball and chain
Pulling me closer to death, i feel closer to death now
Candy-coated pain is like a ball and chain
We only dig deeper by running away

Guilty or innocent whatever pick the verdict
Sometimes a perfect picture's not so perfect
Thought i could reverse the mixture it isn't worth it
Because my life seems to work no matter how bad curse it
I only know a little but i feel so much
The pain brings me down but it reveals the rush
See i got my arms up just to shield the dust
Because i lust for the things i can't seem to touch
Arrest me if i follow you
You congest me i'm so hollow from your gift
You infect me when i cut you
Still the same still insane
I think i love you
(But fuck you)

You see i'm ok now but i dont think it will last
Because reality is something i can't seem to grasp
Candy-coated pain is like a ball and chain
Pulling me closer to death, i feel closer to death now
Candy-coated pain is like a ball and chain
We only dig deeper by running away

WASTE OF MY TIME

She was My Heart, my soul, my girl, my life
I want that shit, I'll make that sacrifice.

staring down on the world lookin' for a new girl
and a new life, now I guess one day, some day I'm a get it right

I know the way it ends when you just walk out the front door

BATTLE CRY

No time for words just choose sides
No fear cause no one can hide
No room to keep this inside
I'm on the front line yelling out the battle cry

Steppin' with my Armageddon, weapon I'll wet 'em and let 'em
Step again, Armageddon weapon will wet 'em again
Steppin' with my Armageddon, weapon I'll wet 'em and let 'em
Step again, step again

I'm sick of waiting and hearing this instigation
It's time to take over the station (and get y'all pissed off)
It's like my patience it's worse then the situation
So I keep a straight face and scream (all you all get lost)
It's not society nah, can't beat sobriety
Something inside of me is keeping me down
It's cause you lie to me and take away my privacy
I used to stay quiet but look at me now

No time for words just choose sides (no)
No fear cause no one can hide (no)
No room to keep this inside (so where you at?)
Front line yellin' out the battle cry
I thought I heard the battle cry
I could have sworn I heard the battle cry
I thought I heard the battle cry

(No!) I won't calm down
(No!) I won't put my fire arm down
(Hell no!) We're either leaving here or fightin'
Or we're writin' some new rules and I'm doing the writin'
Who are you to govern me, how could you govern
If you got no fuckin' love for me
I see the love but I don't see it's brotherly
Ya love to rape me, hate me, smother me
So I'm gonna be steppin' with my Armageddon
Weapon I'll wet 'em and let 'em
Step again Armageddon weapon will wet 'em step again

No time for words just choose sides (no)
No fear cause no one can hide (no)
No room to keep this inside (so where you at?)
Front line yellin' out the battle cry
I thought I heard the battle cry
I could have sworn I heard the battle cry
I thought I heard the battle cry

I used to stay quiet but look at me now
I could have sworn I heard the battle cry
I thought I heard the battle cry
I could have sworn I heard the battle cry

TAKE IT TO THE BRIDGE

Tripple X bottle, role models from hell
Livin' our dreams we like to scream and yell
White boys, B-Boys raised in the gutter
I said when I'd grow up I'd be a bad motherfucker
Nothings gonna stop me now, I'm breaking the rules
I'm gonna do it if it's not allowed
Thought I wouldn't when I would, would when I wouldn't
I did it for the reason everybody said I couldn't
I'm putting my best foot down like what now
Lets take it to the bridge and jump the fuck down
Fuck it like a clown jump off a building in a bucket
The worst is yet to come, here it comes so bum rush it

Would you jump off a bridge if I told you to
Would you change the way you live if I told you to
Would you jump off a bridge if I told you to
Well take it to the bridge and jump the fuck off [2x]

Are you ready to jump? Are you ready to leap?
Well the head rush is heavy but for many too deep
??
That were speeding up the world to keep the timing on beat
It keeps reminding everybody who's a pyrimid freak
The pyrimid eye, the figure inside
The leader that you follow the day that you die
We always bring it live which makes it easy to choose
Ain't now greiving or consoling or singing the blues
So when the levee breaks just remember the drums
And when the levee breaks don't forget how to run
Remember what I've done and everything I say
I'm living proof that you can jump and live to try it again

Would you jump off a bridge if I told you to
Would you change the way you live if I told you to
Would you jump off a bridge if I told you to
Well take it to the bridge and jump the fuck off [2x]

I'm torn like Korn playing follow the leader
In a baggy pair of dickies and a dirty wife beater
Should the rate a CD like a movie in a theater
Should they blame it on me? I say we blame it on you
Or blame it on the world there's no excuse for the things we do
Life's a maze I'll be amazed if I find my way through
One, two, tell me whatchya gonna
You gonna jump off the bridge like I told ya to
That's right, bum rush the stage
Whatchya made of, how much more can you take
Half of my life's been one big mistake
But no ones gonna take my place
One, two, tell me whatchya gonna do
Your gonna jump off the bridge like I told you to
That's right, bum rush the stage
What you made of? how much can you take

Would you jump off a bridge if I told you to
Would you change the way you live if I told you to
Would you jump off a bridge if I told you to
Well take it to the bridge and jump the fuck off [2x]

Monkey see and monkey do
Monkey see and monkey do
Monkey see and monkey do
Don't try to be like me you gotta be like you
If you can hear this your catchin' the contact
If you can hear this your bumpin' the sound
If your in the earshot your catchin' the contact
If you can hear this your bumpin' the sound

Jump off a bridge if I told you to
Jump off a bridge if I told you to
Take it to the bridge and jump...

SKULLS AND STARS

I was a skull in the ground now I'm a star in the sky
I went from crawling around to being able to fly
Saw no future for me until I opened my eyes
I was a skull in the ground now I'm a star in the sky

I tried love, heaven, hope and takin' chances
And all I got were broken dreams and failed romances
Suffered to a life of skin covered in scratches
Looking for the light but I could never find the passage
Tension, stress, pain yeah you best believe it
Nose bleeding from my false way to relieve it
Enough confusion to make serenity sick
All my fake friends became my enemies quick
Everyday I found another way to make excuses
Took the ropes I was supposed to climb and made nooses
Being stupid always giving in to the myth
That life wasn't even worth living like this
A grown man trapped inside a young man's skin
With resentment very very deep within
On a mission to end up either dead or in jail
No wonder everybody always said that I would fail

I was a skull in the ground now I'm a star in the sky
I went from crawling around to being able to fly
Saw no future for me until I opened my eyes
I was a skull in the ground now I'm a star in the sky
(x2)

I found myself locked in a cell and I was just another number
The thin ice was cracking and I was sinking under ... in with sorrow
Worried 'bout today dread would happen by tomorrow
Who knows the answers well nobody knows for certain
The evil things I did when I chose to close the curtain
Perhaps I should relapse quit relapse quit
Force it back and relax with a sack of good shit
Now I find myself in a candlelit depression
Using sex like drugs just to handle my aggression

I was a skull in the ground now I'm a star in the sky
I went from crawling around to being able to fly
Saw no future for me until I opened my eyes
I was a skull in the ground now I'm a star in the sky
(x2)

i had a little, had a lot, had it all and then I lost it
Stars are in my eyes and skeletons are in my closet
Now when I open my eyes and I rise from the dead
Take control of my soul cause the lies are in my head
The right way is the left way and the left way is wrong
So I'm left with the right way and the right way is long
So for once in my life I truly feel like I belong
So I'll appreciate today and every day until I'm gone

I was a skull in the ground now I'm a star in the sky
I went from crawling around to being able to fly
Saw no future for me until I opened my eyes
I was a skull in the ground now I'm a star in the sky
(x2)

I was a skull in the ground now I'm a star in the sky...

BEAUTIFUL

Now when the shit goes down, I'm always forced to grow
forced to see all the things that I still don't know
and if there's one thing I've learned,
it's never too late to take a fucked up life to a beautiful state
Caus' I came from the bottom so I treasure the top
at times it seems the dreams are just a long shot
when the worlds crashing down, when the drama wont stop
your chained to the past and you cant break the lock

Caus' nothing can be more beautiful then watching the whole world crumbling down
on me
so beautiful, so beautiful
to witness the end

how far will I go and will I grow, will I learn to know

My addiction used to hold me, like a lover feelin' lonely
I was down by broken dreams and when I felt the world owed me
I'd sit and hit the walls until my fists were cut and swollen
my soul was cold and drowning from the tears iv tried to hold in
overwhelmed by my emotions, and haunted by the past
my head was overheating and my heart was in a cast
my mind was in the gutter, my ass was in a sling
driven by destruction
young and fuckin' everything

Caus' nothing can be more beautiful then watching the whole world crumbling down
on me
so beautiful, so beautiful
to witness the end

how far will I go and will I grow, will I learn to know
how far now will I go and will I grow
so beautiful, so beautiful, beautiful

Caus' nothing can be more beautiful then watching the whole world crumbling down
on me
so beautiful, so beautiful
to witness the end

Caus' nothing can be more beautiful then watching the whole world crumbling down
on me
so beautiful, so beautiful
to witness the end

Caus' nothing can be more beautiful then watching the whole world crumbling down
on me
so beautiful, so beautiful
to witness the end
(how far will I go and will I grow, will I learn to know
how far now will I go and will I grow
so beautiful, so beautiful, beautiful)

BULLETS

Walking around I hear the earth seeking relief
I’m trying to find a reason to live
But the mindless clutter my path
Oh these thorns in my side
I know I have something free
I have something so alive
I think they shoot ‘cause they want it

I feel forces all around me
Come on raise your head
Those who hide behind the shadows
Live with all that’s dead

Look at me…look at me
At least look at me when you shoot a bullet
through my head
Through my head
Through my head
Through my head

In my lifetime when I’m disgraced
By jealousy and lies
I laugh aloud ‘cause my life
Has gotten inside someone else’s mind

Look at me…look at me
At least look at me when you shoot a bullet
through my head
Through my head
Through my head
Through my head

Hey all I want is what’s real
Something I touch and can feel
I’ll hold it close and never let it go
Said why…why do we live life
With all this hate inside
I’ll give it away ‘cause I don’t want it no more
Please help me find a place
Somewhere far away I’ll go and you’ll never see me again 

FREEDOM FIGHTER

The mouths of envious
Always find another door
While at the gates of paradise they
beat us down some more
But our mission’s set in stone
‘Cause the writing’s on the wall
I’ll scream it from the mountain tops
pride comes before a fall

So many thoughts to share
All this energy to give
Unlike those who hide the truth
I tell it like it is
If the truth will set you free
I feel sorry for your soul
Can’t you hear the ringing ‘cause
for you the bell tolls

I’m just a freedom fighter
No remorse
Raging on in holy war
Soon there’ll come a day
When you’re face to face with me
Face to face with me

Can’t you hear us coming?
People marching all around
Can’t you see we’re coming?
Close your eyes it’s over now
Can’t you hear us coming?
The fight has only just begun
Can’t you see we’re coming?

I’m just a freedom fighter
No remorse
Raging on in holy war
Soon there’ll come a day
When you’re face to face with me
Face to face with me 

WHO'S GOT MY BACK

Run…hide
All that was sacred to us
Sacred to us
See the signs
The covenant has been broken
By mankind
Leaving us with no shoulder…
with no shoulder
To rest our head on
To rest our head on
To rest our head on

Who’s got my back now?
When all we have left is deceptive
So disconnected
So what is the truth now?

There’s still time
All that has been devastated
Can be recreated
Realize
We pick up the broken pieces
Of our lives
Giving ourselves to each other…
ourselves to each other
To rest our head on
To rest our head on
To rest our head on

Who’s got my back now?
When all we have left is deceptive
So disconnected
So what is the truth now?

Tell me the truth now…
Tell us the truth now

Who’s got my back now?
When all we have left is deceptive
So disconnected
So what is the truth now? 

SIGNS

This is not about age
Time served on the earth
doesn’t mean you grow in mind
This is not about God
Spiritual insinuations seem
to shock our nation

Come with me I’m fading
Underneath the lights
Come with me
Come with me
Come with me now

This is not about race
It’s a decision to stop the
Division in your life
This is not about sex
We all know sex sells and
the whole world is buying

Come with me I’m fading
underneath the lights
Come with me
Come with me
Come with me now

Can’t you see the signs?
See the signs now

Can’t you see them?
See the signs
You see them
All the signs we see them
Can’t you see them? 

ONE LAST BREATH

Please come now I think I’m falling
I’m holding on to all I think is safe
It seems I found the road to nowhere
And I’m trying to escape
I yelled back when I heard thunder
But I’m down to one last breath
And with it let me say
Let me say

Hold me now
I’m six feet from the edge and I’m thinking
That maybe six feet
Ain’t so far down

I’m looking down now that it’s over
Reflecting on all of my mistakes
I thought I found the road to somewhere
Somewhere in His grace
I cried out heaven save me
But I’m down to one last breath
And with it let me say
Let me say

Hold me now
I’m six feet from the edge and I’m thinking
That maybe six feet
Ain’t so far down

Sad eyes follow me
But I still believe there’s something left for me
So please come stay with me
‘Cause I still believe there’s something left for you and me
For you and me
For you and me

Hold me now
I’m six feet from the edge and I’m thinking 

MY SACRIFICE

Hello my friend we meet again
It’s been a while where should
we begin…feels like forever
Within my heart are memories
Of perfect love that you gave to me
I remember

When you are with me
I’m free…I’m careless…I believe
Above all the others we’ll fly
This brings tears to my eyes
My sacrifice

We’ve seen our share of ups and downs
Oh how quickly life can turn around in
an instant
It feels so good to reunite
Within yourself and within your mind
Let’s find peace there

When you are with me
I’m free…I’m careless…I believe
Above all the others we’ll fly
This brings tears to my eyes
My sacrifice

I just want to say hello again 

STAND HERE WITH ME

You always reached out to me and
helped me believe
All those memories we share
I will cherish every one of them
The truth of it is there’s a right way to live
And you showed me
So now you live on in the words of a song
You’re a melody

You stand here with me now

Just when fear blinded me
you taught me to dream
I’ll give you everything I am
and still fall short of
What you’ve done for me
In this life that I live
I hope I can give love unselfishly
I’ve learned the world is bigger than me
You’re my daily dose of reality

You stand here with me now

On and on we sing
On and on we sing this song

‘Cause you stand here with me 

WEATHERED

I lie awake on a long, dark night
I can’t seem to tame my mind
Slings and arrows are killing me inside
Maybe I can’t accept the life that’s mine
No I can’t accept the life that’s mine

Simple living is my desperate cry
Been trading love with indifference
yeah it suits me just fine
I try to hold on but I’m calloused to the bone
Maybe that’s why I feel alone
Maybe that’s why I feel so alone

Me…I’m rusted and weathered
Barely holding together
I’m covered with skin that peels and
it just won’t heal

The sun shines and I can’t avoid the light
I think I’m holding on to life too tight
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Sometimes I feel like giving up
Sometimes I feel like giving up

Me…I’m rusted and weathered
Barely holding together
I’m covered with skin that peels
and it just won’t heal

The day reminds me of you
The night hides your truth
The earth is a voice
Speaking to you
Take all this pride
And leave it behind
Because one day it ends
One day we die
Believe what you will
That is your right
But I choose to win
So I choose to fight
To fight

HIDE

To what do I owe this gift my friend?
My life, my love, my soul?
I’ve been dancing with the devil
way too long
And it’s making me grow old
Making me grow old

Let’s leave…oh let’s get away
Get lost in time
Where there’s no reason to hide

Let’s leave…oh let’s get away
Run in fields of time
Where there’s no reason to hide

What are you going to do with
your gift dear child?
Give life, give love, give soul?
Divided is the one who dances
For the soul is so exposed
So exposed

Let’s leave…oh let’s get away
Get lost in time
Where there’s no reason to hide

Let’s leave…oh let’s get away
Run in fields of time
Where there’s no reason to hide

There is no reason to hide

No reason to hide

DON'T STOP DANCING

At times life is wicked and I just can’t
see the light
A silver lining sometimes isn’t enough
To make some wrongs seem right
Whatever life brings
I’ve been through everything
And now I’m on my knees again

But I know I must go on
Although I hurt I must be strong
Because inside I know that many
feel this way

Children don’t stop dancing
Believe you can fly
Away…away

At times life’s unfair and you know
it’s plain to see
Hey God I know I’m just a dot in
this world
Have you forgot about me?
Whatever life brings
I’ve been through everything
And now I’m on my knees again

But I know I must go on
Although I hurt I must be strong
Because inside I know that many
feel this way

Am I hiding in the shadows?
Forget the pain and forget the sorrows

But I know I must go on
Although I hurt I must be strong
Because inside I know that many
feel this way

Children don’t stop dancing
Believe you can fly
Away…away

Am I hiding in the shadows?
Are we hiding in the shadows?  

LULLABY

My love now don’t you cry
Everything will be all right
Close your eyes and drift in dream.

Rest in peaceful sleep

If there’s one thing I hope
I showed you
Hope I showed you

Just give love to all

Oh my love…in my arms tight
Every day you give me life
As I drift off to your world
Will rest in peaceful sleep

I know there’s one thing that
you showed me
That you showed me

Just give love to all
Let’s give love to all
