StateOfShock
Hated
Well I've seen many things
In my eternity
I've felt all the poverty and wealth in my life
I feel I'm runnin' outta time
I've changed, rewritten, rearranged
I'll try until I die
I've kissed reality
And the whole damn world goodbye
As I ponder in the eyes of a fool
Realizing this nightmare's true
Deep in your thoughts I now control
Only to haunt you and break away from your hell
As I ponder in the eyes of a fool
Your deception only to profit you
Someday I think I just may ruin your life
Forever dead on the edge of a knife
I've been tricked too many times
Now I know - Being cool will sometimes take it's toll
Insane - Ripped off losin' my mind
Only to be crushed by deceptive lies
Your deceptive lies
So now you put me in a cage
Someday I'm just gonna get away
It's like falling in a bottomless pit
Another selfish game of hit and miss
Eyes open - Now I can see
Just what's happening to me
Sometimes I'm my worst enemy
But if looks could kill you'd be dead you see
Still I ponder now you're the fools
Table's turned, the nightmares yours
All the strain, rearranged
Havin' to deal with yourself
Now the hell is yours
Clownhouse
Livin' in this modern world everything goes to hell
Rioting in the streets, I'm livin' by my law
Running an endless race to society's constant struggle
Rip it up, tear it down, forget toilet trouble
Why am I losing sleep so many problems need solved
Fighting an endless battle on and on and on
Sometimes I really think that maybe I should do the same
I just can't seem to get it right time and time again
I've got the key to the clownhouse, it's mine and mine alone
I'll open the door and jump right in when I feel alone
Life is just a freak show and how much can one take?
Welcome to the center ring a world of fucking snakes
The sick, the homeless, no set guarantees
Starving in the cold in the streets a part of you and me
Challenge time, break the ice, give this world a song
Hold the key in the palm of your hand and still we break the law
The story of a man who lives in a cardboard box
He's tangles and he's webbed all up where do I get off?
Livin' on travestied hope he's caught himself depression
Use the power of the human mind to destroy all your pressure
Society's clownhouse and everyone's a freak
Just paint a smile on the people's face
You won't even see their frown
Life is just a circus and now it's your turn to play
It's an artificial world you're livin' in today
An old lady was hit by a car another hit and run
Used to live in a trash can amongst the whining scum
The world to her was just as black as night
Now she lies dead in the street with a pie in her face
What is Life?
People gotta listen to what I say
Ain't no, it ain't no big thing
Make no thumbs about it
Droppin' your troubles at the doorway
Listen for me
What is life, what is life - it's just a party
What is life, what is life - it's just a party
Givin' it, givin' it all to me
People gotta listen to what I say
The music, revolution, and it's liberating me
Leave the dead weight and the world behind you
Listen for me
What is life, what is life - it's just a party
What is life, what is life - it's just a party
Givin' it, givin' it all to me
Leave your troubles at the doorway
Listen for me
RunAround
Open up my eyes what is it I see?
An oppressive world right in front of me
Lookin' all around look at you and me
I'll never understand your reality
There's nowhere left to hide my best friend just died
Mama's fallin down talkin' suicide
Anxious bitter taste deep inside of me
I nice healthy dose of life's misery
There's no room for closed minds anymore
It's time to open up your thoughts
And there's no way around it
Life's still going on testing you and me
Cutting through the crowd we'll never be the same
A ..... ..... ride but then he goes and hides
A ..... ....... will slap you in the face
All I hear from you is many many lies
You're a ........ with no compromise
Looking all around, look at you and me
I'll never understand your reality
Still I often wonder
How people could have such stuck up minds
Break free from their garbage
Leave that all behind
Round, round, runaround happening to me
I'll never be the same, goodbye to you and me
Round, round runaround happening to me
I'll never be the same, goodbye to you and me
Colors and Blood
My brother's life was over with a flash of light
The gun was sure to have seen him comin'
Don't know how much you're gonna have to pay
He shot him dead at the signal when the light was red
It's just the way it's always been
And you know now what has to be
Cause where you live life there's no rules
Makes today a good day for dyin'
Goin' down I don't need a reason
In the eyes of fools
Livin' by these rules
Colors and blood are all I have
I don't care if you kill me
Colors and Blood are all I have
Whether I die or live
Colors and Blood are all I have
I don't care about tomorrow
Cause tomorrow may never come
May not ever see the sun
I heard him say as he turned and walked away
This is my way ain't gonna be no other
Don't try to talk to me don't bother
He's not a man unless he's killed with a gun in his hand
It's Not Right
It's not right
Wise up - and I'll tell you what I see
Your life - as complex as can be
People in the streets are runnin' from the police
It's not right (x4)
This hate - sure isn't what we need
Don't believe everything you read
Sometimes things aren't exactly as they seem
It's not right (x4)
Watching disintegration, looking for recreation
Hey (x4)
Analyze these crazy lies still I find I ask myself "why?"
Sometimes I feel that I could snap
In life there's no turnin' back
I'm getting sick of all of that
Just more brain control, another mind attack
Wise up - to a regulated scene
Back off - you're makin' people bleed
Oppressed - we're only human beings
It's not right (x4)
Machines - are wandering in the streets
Attack - I wonder if our future's bleeding
Crime and drugs destroy the world and you know it
It's not right (x4)
My blood and pressure climbs,
My E and G hit a red line
Weeding through this constant crap
The straw that broke the camel's back
Looking at a high cliff and rape - oink
What illusions will my mind create
Sometimes I feel I think too much
But I must hold on I can't be losing touch
Constant pressure all the time just to be the next in line
Hey (x4)
Don't care what they say I just want to get away
Wise up - I'll tell you what I've seen
Your lives - are as screwed up as can be
People in the streets still runnin' from the police
It's not right (x4)
This hate - sure isn't what we need
Don't believe everything you read
It's not right...
Paranoid's Demise
Why?
A frightened man is chased
Everything in it's place
They wonder why the spirit does
Backfirin' in your face
Breathin' down my neck
Big brother's such a bitch
Well it's all comin' back on all you hypocrites
No compromise, social suicide
Plain and simple, paranoid's demise
Stuck in a corner with no place to hide
Self destruction, paranoid's demise
Infected with bein' watched
Runnin' from another mistake
Slowly distorts the subconscious mind
Building anxiety and hate
Living the promised lie
Still they wonder why
As we feed on each other
Corrupting the human mind
When will they realize
Creating anxiety deep inside
Conditioned to obey
To do every little thing that they say
Give it back, give it back,
Give it back before I snap
Give it back, no surprise,
Just another paranoid's demise
Self destruction, paranoid's demise...
Dream
Well I had a dream just the other night
Where black was red and red was white
No one cared about the color
Or whoever one a useless fight
Different tone on everyone's lips
.................................
Written on the face of every man alive
Follow me, and I'll set you free (x4)
Everybody lives, because nobody dies
Was once a few words from one man
Is now a revelation for all mankind
Cause no one cries, no one eats
No one loses any sleep now
No one shares a single thought
That's wrong all day long
Follow me, and I'll set you free (x4)
Well I had a dream just the other night
.................................
Nobody cared, hey, beat it
What's your hurry?
Nobody had to see through eyes
Nobody felt the need to lie
Evil and good came together
And became the same, under one name
Follow me, and I'll set you free...
Better Than Expected
It was a hot summer night
Their eyes met
The moon was full
He whispered in her ear
She blushed
And then Ted pulled out the knife
Tracy was a girl she's just like any other girl
Life was such a drag
And she had all the candles burning
Friends of hers would say
She was the model of complexion
By making her connection, put her in high places
She had a picture inside of her mind
Runnin' from herself how many more times
For her it must be tough to make a decision
She was brand new she didn't know what to do
Comin' home from work
She made a left and went out drinkin'
Thinkin' there was nothin' in a harmless conversation
Teddy was a friend
They went to high school perfect strangers
She didn't see the danger in the wheels he was spinnin'
Teddy had a picture in front of his mind
If he had his way it'll be her last time
Time after time had to make a decision
She was brand new, she didn't have a clue
She had to have her way
She had to cross the line
She went a bit too far
She was brand new, she didn't have a clue
Windin' up dead, that's hangin' out with Ted
Teddy had a pretty face that everbody
In the place knew he was an animal
But only she could reach him
They found her not too far from there
Dead in raised up underwear
Goin' out with Teddy was better than expected
She had a ..... in front of her mind
Runnin' from herself for the last time
Little girl who made the wrong decision
She had to have her way, what a price to pay
Martyr Man
Martyr man
This martyr man in a recent time
He loved his life but a little too fast
Out of control in a reckless way
So easily it can be taken all away
Martyr man will die for what he sees
Martyr man will fight for what he thinks
Martyr man what did you really see?
A strong message for which this man leaves
When will people understand?
That he was just a common man
Still the people ask me why
This man had to die
Martyr man...
There's a place I know where the wild ones go
Where people rot and always spite
Loss of a friend mind, body and soul
One man death could save another man's life
Martyr man...
