One by one I deal with them. Take them by the neck. Drag them around kicking and screaming. Showing the law of cause and effect. Everything I feel with, I tuck and protect from the storm. And pray for the sake of the people who make the worst mistakes of their naturally born lives.
[Chorus 1] Snapping bones. Head down and making holes. In the walls closing around me.
[Chorus 2] Finding out I′m the enemy. When they′re surrounding the enemy. You′re trying to take down the enemey? There′s going to be a war!
I got just enough left to finish this, and the rest I′m going to use on your friends. Don′t bother screaming for help. They left you behind to fend for yourself.
Pattern of the mentally battered individual. Matter that eventually shattered any principle. Rather than barely getting by on just the minimum, my decision is to take on the best.
I gotta go before i lose my mind I cant explain it or name it this time You bring the lightning and the thunder that I drop And keep complaining that the rain won′t stop
I dont wanna waste the life you got Fixing all the that just dont work Working for the thing that I dont want Chasing all the things that i dont want
Feels like i don′t belong Like someone′s singing the wrong song Who says when it′s over (it′s over, it′s over)
Who is the one in control am i the one in control? Who says when it′s over (it′s over, it′s over)
You could see that i was losing touch I couldnt say it but you were too much You needed something that i never really had and keep complaining that i always get mad
I dont wanna be the one you want Doing all the things that piss you off Fighting for life that i dont want Chasing what I know i just dont want
Feels like i don′t belong Like someone′s singing the wrong song Who says when it′s over (it′s over, it′s over) Who is the one in control am i the one in control?
Who says when it′s over (it′s over, it′s over) Whos the one in control Am i the one in control of it all Whos the one in control Am i the one in control of it all Am i the one in control of it all
Feels like i don′t belong Like someone′s singing the wrong song Who says when it′s over (it′s over, it′s over) Who is the one in control am i the one in control? Who says when it′s over (it′s over, it′s over)
I collapse from working than The average work-a-holic I intend then reaching father than Infinity To get exactly what i fight so hard and labor for And crack the surface of What i intend to be Not for you Youre too hard to please
How do i meet Your impossible needs How can i reach With you pulling on me With your Impossible needs How can i reach With you pulling on me
I snap but still hang on By the thread that you throw me One hand to just hang on And the other to catch me One too many ticks Past the second That you were so happy I cant go back around again Not for you Youre too hard to please
How do i meet Your impossible needs How can i reach With you pulling on me With your Impossible needs How can i reach With you pulling on me
In a round-about way Im better than this But you keep me From taking a chance On what i believe i am And what you think makes me a man
Pedal to floor, back in the seat, purpose and will verus modern machine. Passing the slow, defeating the weak, all with the tar on the street, and the weight of my feet the sweat on my face. Wanting first place for than you can understand.
Going around in circles again.
Photo finish race. Rear veiw stare chase. Satisfaction only when I finish at the end. If i follow all the rules, promise that i′ll win? Driven so confused that im going around in circles again.
Going around in circles again.
Holding on by a thread. Cut me loose so I can contend. Hoping for something more then second place, first place or more. Where will I be when I get to the end? Doesn′t matter what place i begin three hundred sixty-one degree′s and then.
Making choices and hoping that they′re all right. Hating waiting for something to make this worth the waiting... and what are you waiting for? Any advice?
Intervention of a mental melt down. Too late to help, it′s out of my hands now. Do you want to do what you want to, and not tell me how? Explanations are more than I′m asking for. Just suggestions, not unfeeling metaphors. No recaps all over again to remember tonight? And make this worth our fight?
Making choices and hoping that they′re all right. Hating waiting for something to make this worth the waiting... and what are you waiting for? Any advice?
we are losing all sight of the big picture, and there is no light on upstairs. there′s nobody home and I′ve unplugged the phone. Misdirected aggression from an obvious lack of attention. Would you care if I mention the fact that im losing my mind? And I′m not even looking this time.
Making choices and hoping that they′re all right. Hating waiting for something to make this worth the waiting... and what are you waiting for? Any advice?
...Could you spare for a friend, so i don′t do it twice and fall into a trend, and make this happy story end? There′s a crack in the ice.
Making choices and hoping that they′re all right. Hating waiting for something to make this worth the waiting... and what are you waiting for? Any advice?
Intervention of a mental melt down. Too late to help, it′s out of my hands now. Do you want do what you want to, and not tell me how?
I′m gonna make it rain on you. I′m gonna bring the pain to you. Put you through a nightmare that you′ll never wanna sleep again. And when you open, you open your eyes
I hope you′ve said your last goodbyes. And all your hoping to see my demise Is only causing me to rise
You can try hard, hard as you can You′re never gonna bring me down You′re gonna fight but i′m gonna win You′re never gonna bring me down
You really think you have a chance Against the army in my head Fighting like you took my children And say I′ll never see them again You can′t understand how serious I take the way you look at me My intention isn′t to discuss this It′s to see if you can bleed
You can try hard, hard as you can You′re never gonna bring me down You′re gonna fight but I′m gonna win You′re never gonna bring me down
Mayday mayday I′m going down in flames Now its finally too late Didn′t think it would end this way
Steel bones Concrete skin Rooted in stone below Its your turn Come on in And see what gonna happen to you
Drowning in the wake The wake of you and me If you threw me a line I′d grab hold and pull you out to sea
Elbows Fist to face Neck in brace Chalk line trace Police chase me All because you chose to face me, face me
There′ nothing you can say to me you haven′t said before It′s in one ear and out the other I can′t take anymore Its my time to ruin this cause thats what I do best It′s in one ear and out the other you′re just like all the rest
Really could use a hand I′m sinking fast in quicksand Words they have no meaning And I′m screaming at the ceiling
Eyes up Hands follow There′s no tomorrow I can′t see Any meaning In anything you′re saying
There′ nothing you can say to me you haven′t said before It′s in one ear and out the other I can′t take anymore Its my time to ruin this cause thats what I do best It′s in one ear and out the other you′re just like all the rest
You′re gonna see exactly what I can do to you You′re gonna feel the pain I′m bringing. Bringing to you
There′ nothing you can say to me you haven′t said before It′s in one ear and out the other I can′t take anymore Its my time to ruin this cause thats what I do best It′s in one ear and out the other you′re just like all the rest
Chased by a dark cloud negativity the story of my so called life questions no answers no actions just words i can′t find a direction to turn no easy steps the road to success you keep me depressed I′m always depressed hang with me hand and hand you changed search to rearrange the way we communicate A god made human is what you are yet you′re acting like a god Retched is the plot stirred in the pot just want to be active hands to hands you change need to be noticed look back to focus hocus pocus you′re done On a dim you stand no weakness to ignore ego like mentality you talkin mighty high you live to love to lie can′t understand why give me another try look in the mirror boy you′re nothin but a toy you live a gimmick you′re like a puppet hang with me hand and hand you changed search to rearrange the way we communicate A god made human is what you are yet you′re acting like a god Retched is the plot stirred in the pot just want to be active hands to hands you change need to be noticed look back to focus hocus pocus you′re done I made you I broke you believed you realize this time I came prepared Pensando que decirte a ti porque eres asi con tu gente ie lo digo cantando si tu quieres hablando por que to entiendo tu clase de gente
So what if doing something real bad is the only way to get it So what if its a bad idea, later I′ll regret it. I′ll take whatever comes with doing what I want when I want it And hope whatever comes doesn′t know I sting like a hornet..
I′m about to do something that I don′t wanna do Ready to do anything To make this clear to you
You better get your hands off Before you get them both cut off Make the wrong move And get your lights put out Get your hands off Before you get them both cut off Make the wrong move And get your lights put out
I know what your thinking, I know what you′re sayin I know that you′re hoping that I am, but I ain′t playin I′ll do what I gotta do just to keep me movin And hope whatever does what its gonna wont see me comin..
You ain′t takin the only thing That I earned to keep You ain′t takin the only thing Keeping me asleep
You better get your hands off Before you get them both cut off Make the wrong move And get your lights put out
Get your hands off Before you get them both cut off Make the wrong move And get your lights put out
Get your hands off Before you lose them both for good Hands off Get your hands off Before you lose them both for good
You better get your hands off Before you get them both cut off Make the wrong move And get your lights put out Get your hands off
Before you get them both cut off Make the wrong move And get your lights put out
My disposition is in a possition for all to see. Regretless for how it feels. I got a bullet with a name on it. Bullet with a name.
Because the cause for all, the pause you think you see is really concentration on the steel. I got a bullet with a name on it. Bullet with a name.
See everybody watching and passing judjement on every little move and disition I make. How can i be an individual with the weight of the world with 8 other planets to take? and with everything happening gunshots clappin and people all runnin in every direction with their hands up prayin for the drama to end, I got my hand out lookin for some money to spend.
[Chorus] The price tags on the things i need are getting bigger by the day I got a bullet with a name on it. Bullet with a name. The way I work so hard for things they just take away from me. I got a bullet with a name on it. Bullet with a name.
I′m workin harder than a hundred black mules down in Mexico. No water, no clouds, no cover, from the hotter than Hell no dinner bell, empty oven again from another bad opinion. I mean who doesn′t want the cars, money, fame, attention, bars, honeys, games, attention, stars? Funny how we say we don′t need it then turn around and try to achieve it.
[Chorus]
Everything that they say about me. And everything that they make me need, are nothing when they′re taking everything away from me. Everyone trying to make it harder and everyone saying I would never be. You′re nothing but a name on the bullet that I aim...
...Go... It′s time To do a quick rewind And find another line And bring it back to get The juices flowing You Found infection With injection Tell me lies Time is moving faster You were the last one To reach inside And grab my soul and kill it Now you realize What you′ve done Now you realize What you′ve done Your time has come Go... Pick it up pick it up pick it up Heart beats Pains inside You wonder why You can′t breathe You′re about to see Your maker′s eyes That breath you took Was terminal. Now you realize What you′ve done Now you realize What you′ve done Your time has come Go... Pick it up pick it up pick it up... Here we go Oh girl Take my hand I understand, I understand You got it right there Oooh girl it′s the right time I feel you′re taste you′re feelin so fine So fine Soft white skin The air the color of sunsets Kiss your neck The tone is all set You tell another lie You′re flyer than the girl I had before Then I kiss your bottom lip and Have you screamin for more Close the door And hope that nobody′s home And when you wake up I′ll be long gone
I don′t know how to say to make you understand that when i turn my head to look I wanna see your hands.
You used to care. In the beginning, it felt like you′d always be there. Now i see that winning′s not easy. It′s something that needs to be held the right way. In the beginning, feels like we′re going to win. But somewhere you caused this to end.
I don′t know how to say to make you understand that when i turn my head to look I wanna see your hands.
I need space too. Would of wanted it with you. I need time to think too. But all i seem to think about is me minus you. In the beginning, feels like we′re going to win. But somewhere you caused this to end
I dont know how to say to make you understand that when i turn my head to look I wanna see your hands.
In the beginning, feels like we′re going to win. Now it′s the end and we start to pretend. Somewhere you caused this to end.
I dont know how to say to make you understand that when i turn my head to look I wanna see your hands.
Scenes are changing and you collect the sand on our souls. You can make it okay if you pave your own way. Bear down and reach the higher ground. Your momentum has swayed from all the shit in the world today. Lose track fight to get it back. Climb aboard, strap yourself in, and wait for the ride of life to begin even though you were the first to go you′re the last to stay. Long roads lead the shortest ways. The people the same the trip is what you′re waiting for. Scenes change and they′ll grow more...
Twisted, intricate, obscure and tangled double-edged through My head leaving Me mangled incomprehensible questions and words created from all of the stories you heard these complications are going too far and show Me exactly who you are. It should never be this hard. Mislead into thinking that everything′s okay misread My answers cause all of the hear-say you′ll understand someday soon changed My direction redefined My intentions how can you mention the good that we had when everything else makes Me mad. It should never be this hard. Breakaway runaway hideaway just to get away. It should never be this hard, don′t try and make Me stay just turn your head and walk away.
Gotta get from the point of pressure, to the point of no return, to turn me inside out. Brother please, tell the others, please. There are others that don′t know about these...
Standing, responses. Failing the answers. Screaming so foreign. Excessive reactions.
Bouncing off walls, where the pictures hang of the last ones that made them fall before. Taking it all with a grain of salt, and a bitter sweet memory of these...
Standing, responses. Failing the answers. Screaming so foreign. Excessive reaction.
Insane and bottled in, explain the state I′m in. You′re electric pulse can′t ail my sins, explain the state I′m in.
Not so lost, not so fast, not reacting act so... Not the boss, not the past, not reacting act so...
Gotta get me from the point of pressure, to the point of no return to turn me inside out. I know my answers don′t meet your satisfaction, but they cause your reaction, excessive reaction from you.
Broken glass all around you. Try to hide but they find you every time. Even with everything you try to do, people can still look and see right through you. Looking like you came from a magazine. Regular Jockstar/Beauty Queen. Covered in labels barely able to speak for yourself. So you look and other people and help yourself. You have your passport so you can be identified. In case the most important thing is lost (your life). Every chance you take, just to be glorified, is just another link in the chain of your wrecking ball.
[Chorus] This is the wreckoning that you feel happening. The wrecking ball destroying it all.
The bullet inside of the smoking gun. The knife in my back when I try to run. The rain on the day′s that I′m stuck outside. The one to reveal when I′m trying to hide.
Mr. and Mrs. Popularity and the life of all the parties, got to be the first to be the bad ones, get fucked up and have too much fun. Daddy′s not here to hold your hand . Time to buck-up and be a man. Nothing was stoping you before. Why stop now cause you′re on the floor? I′m sure your get your close up, your fifteen minutes of fame and praise. You′re the talk of the town. And every chance you take just to be glorified, is just another brick in the wall that you′re bringing down.
[Chorus]
And when you try to end destruction, of the things that make you function, you want no interruption. And all because of all of your selfish assumptions, I′m "acting out" this way.
You cause the eruption happening inside of me.
The bullet inside of the smoking gun. The knife in my back when I try to run. The rain on the day′s that I′m stuck outside. The one to reveal when I′m trying to hide.
Funny feeling my guts intuition doesn′t know No bravery could convince you To more or less say no Your explanation hasn′t gone over yet But I′ll give you one more chance To open up and just let go There′s no easier way out of this place I′m claiming this lie to you face to face to face to That′s no way for you to treat me my dear Someone you chose to lie to all these years There is no other title that I can find for us Even though you can believe that this could Work and bleed and breathe and be for us Your interpretation of my expectations Caught up in your picture frame Have defined my eyes and made me turn up down and inside There′s no easier way out of this place I′m claiming this lie to you face to face to face to That′s no way for you to treat me my dear Someone you chose to lie to all these years It′s gonna take a lot to get you to completely Forgive me for letting you down I′m not exactly what I really was back then Played along for so long Then you saw what I really was I was wrong for so long What do I do with my other type of slum life So on to you delight For the rest of the night I′m yours Whatever you want From every pore I give you my life
Taking the world on, taking the world on by yourself. When will you learn? When will you learn all by yourself?
Runaway, it′s the only way for you to stay alive. I′m not moving if you paid me. That′s the shit that′s going to make me curl up inside and die. That′s not the way to be talking, if you want to stay alive.
That′s a chance that I′m taking. It′s the only way to make me satisfied with my life.
[Chorus] Code Red. Calling for Code Red. Don′t let the enemy in. His solution is not the only end. Code Red. Calling for Code Red.
Taking the world on, taking the world on by yourself. When will you learn the world is on your side? Taking the world on, taking the world on by yourself. It′s a battle you finally won, when you saw the struggle shared by everyone.
Just like you... I am... just like you, I am. That′s impossible, look at where you′re from. Look at all the battles I lost. Look at all the battles I should have won. I understand... I do... I understand like you′re suposed to. That′s impossible, how are you suposed to? There′s a million ways, second chances, wrong impressions, second glances.
[Chorus]
Taking the world on, taking the world on by yourself. When will you learn the world is on your side? Taking the world on, taking the world on by yourself. It′s a battle you finally won, when you saw the struggle shared by everyone.
I′m calling for...
Taking the world on, taking the world on by yourself.
Two tone straight gay misfits runaway different from the rest of you I said don′t look at me I got a different idea staring doesn′t help you scratching through the surface all my physical fears staring doesn′t help you I′ve got a new I. Two tone straight gay misfits runaway different from the rest of you I said catchy kinda wreck it stop all this racket and all your rejects wrapped around your neck and then I see you coming from behind me can you hear me sayin can you hear the steps behind you I got the feelin what was the question that you asked when you passed before me it was the comment that you made that gave the impression that you could judge me people lie strange surprise when I open your mouth and got ya hypnotized won′t you realize and give another try to someone you don′t know or have any idea who is coming up from behind can you hear the steps behind you I′m looking through you when I make eye contact with you
Even with a diagram of My DNA I leave scientists baffled ′till the end of the day they try to pick apart My life-style and how I survive making money for the boss while I make nickel and dime, and being on time takin′ a punch and doin′ My best, not ever hearing good job and staying upset it doesn′t take to much to find the sediments they left behind. Put down the book put up the walls I′m never givin′ up at all what′s yours is yours, what′s Mine is yours and I′ll mature. Endure. Not even with ten men holding Me back not even with a devious planned attack contemplating every move that I play willing the bad things all away keeping the worry-free happiness philosophy that′s what I let them see when they try to look at Me. Don′t want out. These issues arise everyday, though you try to turn your head and walk away, though it leaves you feeling insecure you′re gonna feel your life mature. Endure
Rooms spin like hurricanes Walls begin to breath When will this be over Like it more Then i should Its taking over me When will this be over Fighting for you Struggling for you Waiting for you
What do i do this for All for the high Why do i do this why All for the high I rummage through this disaster To find a reward Why do i do this why All for the high
Torn in half again I still feel the same My head spins like a hurricane I cant see Right in front of me Through the shit inside of me When will this be over Fighting for you Struggling for you Waiting for you
What do i do this for All for the high Why do i do this why All for the high I rummage through this disaster To find a reward Why do i do this why All for the high
My head spins Lost control When will this be over My eyes roll Look inside When will this be over
What do i do this for All for the high Why do i do this why All for the high I rummage through this disaster To find a reward Why do i do this why All for the high
Thinking suicide Thinking suicide Thinking suicide Thinking suicide Thinking suicide Look at my eyes (Suicide) I need a disguise To hide my lies Oh god What have I done To myself To her Before your eyes What could drive me so mad To lose what we had The mystery remains inside Want to make it real Like it was before And I lost the bond Cause I shut the door In search of ways to be myself But ended up like somebody else Trusted me Honored me Fought for me Cried for me Lived for me Died for me Open my eyes I see the walls White as snow They don′t seem strong Betrayed myself Opened my eyes Can′t see those walls I feel so dumb Like a fuckin′ bum Preferred to run Then face the fact I stabbed your back I understand that Did not deserve that You can′t go back Do you see it? Oh my god What have I done? Please forgive me FUCK THAT! I feel So hated So aggravated So frustrated I can′t explain it The way that I feel I feel so dumb Like a fuckin′ bum Preferred to run Then face the fact I stabbed your back I′m a victim Slippin through the system Victim Slippin through the system Open my eyes Can′t see those walls I feel so dumb Like a fuckin′ bum Preferred to run Then face the fact I stabbed your back I understand that Did not deserve that You can′t go back Do you see it? Oh my god What have I done Please forgive me FUCK THAT I feel So hated So aggravated So frustrated I can′t explain it The way that I feel I feel so dumb Like a fuckin′ bum Preferred to run Then face the fact I stabbed your back I′m a victim Slippin through the system Victim Slippin through the system Victim Slippin through the system Victim Slippin through the system Victim Slippin through the system Victim Victim Victim Victim Victim Victim Victim Victim
Now, theres a crack on the inside, and i start to play. Now, my fingers stuck, over stood my stay. Now, Now, Now, my world is bent from this development.
Moving faster, then a storm′s rain after the plaster split, where my fingers fit. Sure disaster and growing faster then my skin can take. At least that′s what they say.
Now, theres a crack on the inside, and i start to play. Now, my fingers stuck, over stood my stay. Now, Now, Now, my world is bent from this development.
Crowded cluster. Do you trust her to take the weight, or make the change? Abandoned labor. Do yourself a favor and do for you, not what you′re used to.
Now, theres a crack on the inside, and i start to play. Now, my fingers stuck, over stood my stay. Now, Now, Now, my world is bent from this development.
No more sanity. I can′t stay here, too many bad choices. No more space to breathe. I can′t stay here, too many damn voices.
Now, theres a crack on the inside, and i start to play. Now, my fingers stuck, over stood my stay. Now, Now, Now, my world is bent from this development.
When I drop you, I′m gonna stomp you Pick you up again and then drop you Lift my foot again and then stomp you Then grind And when I stomp you That′ll be the end of you That′ll be it That′ll be the end of you Time to jump ship Cause I′m a psycho and I′m crazy And If you′re too close you′re gonna get hit

I can feel it Coming in the air tonight Oh Lord Ive been waiting for this moment For all my life Oh Lord
Well if you told me you were drowning I would not lend a hand Ive seen your face before my friend But i dont know if you know who i am Well i was there and i saw what you did I saw it with my own two eyes So you can wipe of the grin I know where youve been Its all been a pack of lies
I can feel it Coming in the air tonight Oh Lord Ive been waiting for this moment For all my life Oh Lord, Oh Lord
Well i remember I remember dont worry How could i ever forget Its the first time The last time We ever met But i know the reason why you keep me silenced up No you dont fool me Cause the hurt doesnt show But the pain still grows Its no stranger to you and me
I can feel it Coming in the air tonight Oh Lord Ive been waiting for this moment For all my life Oh Lord, Oh Lord
Just staring off into space again What am i looking for Maybe a cigarette might Calm me down or keep me warm Maybe a drink might be able To tell me that i might be able To do this alone Theyre probably both wrong
Why should i wait (I hate this feeling) For my mistakes (Theyre tearing me up inside)
My head is a mess Dressed in guilt Tilted left And when i straighten this out Ill find the rest And wear it on my chest So the the world can see Everything that has been happening to me Theres nothing to hide anymore Theyre breaking through my front door
Why should i wait (I hate this feeling) For my mistakes (Theyre tearing me up inside)
I waited too long to find the things Taking the life away from this You couldnt care that life was this Without all the shit you covered it with
Why should i wait (I hate this feeling) For my mistakes (Theyre tearing me up inside) Why should i wait Wait for Something to point me the right way
Split open your head And let me pour it in All the knowledge and feeling Of these five deadly sins That your mother would not Let you see on TV So you creep to your basement And lie about being asleep All alone where the rats colonize With their tea As they sip and they watch You give into the sound It just takes you and rips At your soul This piper is playing and hypnotizing A funky ass street tempo The forces are lining The ticking the timing is off You′re resisting But it′s all for nothing The piper is playing his song Can you hear it It′s ripping it′s gripping And pulling your spirit From your inside chest Your heart it collapses From the depths, the pits , the gutters, the shits That make you scream Scream, scream, scream, scream, Scream, scream, scream, scream, Scream, scream, scream, scream Scream, scream Line up it′s role call Head is clear And even though I wrapped you up in butterflies like evenflow Jeremiah spoke to the masses And in flash he caught a fist And broke his glasses The pipers tune is different From the boom that you listened to In your room Better check your speakers Their weaker and their trip Is coming harder Than a booyacka-booyacka Coming from your father Hypnotized, mesmerized, cauterized With his eyes the suprise is Start to fizz Realize that control is his The pipe is strong The trip was long You hit the bong To concentrate on the song And before too long You′re under his control What the fuck? The children are listening The temper is ringing Constantly clinging To that hydroponic feeling If you give him the chance He′ll take your mind away And as the rhythm fades Play the piper play the piper play He is everything you ever wanted He is everything you needed He can change for any reason Play the piper play The piper play He is everything you ever wanted He is everything you needed He can change for any reason Play the piper play The piper play He is everything you ever wanted He is everything you needed He can change for any reason Play the piper play The piper play He has your mind in his head Now you can let go He′s got your time He is everything you ever wanted He is everything you needed He can change for and reason Play the piper play The piper play He has your mind in his head Now you can let go He′s got your time Play the piper play
There′s a dirty little town on the east side of a city made of plastic gold Where the the old come to die and the young have to dig all the holes They take their dirty little lies to grave with ′em That they brought along in luggage with no names on ′em And leave behind boxes filled with all their souls Crushing us in this black hole In this black..
Its our time to take it back Beat the walls until the crack Burn the city to the ground
Look in every damn direction for a way out from the wall of people closing in Reaching for my pockets taking every single penny they can They got their fat fingers stuck inside the pocket of People doing anything to make a buck Taking every opportunity they can to hurt us Then complaining that we don′t trust!
No we shouldn′t trust them.. Its our time to take it back Beat the walls until the crack Burn the city to the ground
Its our time to take it back Beat the walls until the crack Burn the city to the ground
In the middle of a one horse Everybody knows me Telling my business town. In the middle of a dead stop Traffic jam city. Doing everythingto keep me down In the back of a line of people Waiting for death to come So I′m skipping to the front So I can show′em how it′s done
Its our time to take it back Beat the walls until the crack Burn the city to the ground
I say plenty Insufficient You say any But not this one You want me to pick a side I choose the ones you left behind All their reasons Not excuses Your suggestion For solution You want me to pick a side I choose the ones your left behind
Im on the sidewith the guns Left with no choice But to make it alone Im on the side of the ones You hear about You read about You make us
Their reasons Not excuses Your assumption Retribution Just think of the way you treat The freaks that you think you meet Youre the ones That are losing your souls Wearing things That they tell you are right Just remember the way you fight When someone Starts judging your life
Im on the side with the guns Left with no choice But to make it alone Im on the side of the ones You hear about You read about You make us
We struggle in ways You missed in your comfortable days And you say that Were ready for more I fight in a place Crowded with bad memories And your giving me more Than ill ever be ready for
Im on the sidewith the guns Left with no choice But to make it alone Im on the side of the ones You hear about You read about You make us
I′m a pitbull backed in the corner again Beaten to the ground and left for dead Fighting his way to the top again Money i got i bought and spent The friends i had they came and went One day you just might understand This is a fight i plan to bring again and again
Do everything you have to do To change my mind Even when you see me shadow you You play the blind I′m the one thats losing face here And changing ways There isn′t anything you can say to me To make me change my mind
44 story 40 mile long brick wall Covered in 9 ft of bulletproof steel 21 guns in case shit gets real 31 reason this month alone For you to avoid picking up the phone Monday, tuesday, when the day comes Try to decide hide or run again
Do everything you have to do To change my mind Even when you see me shadow you You play the blind I′m the one thats losing face here And changing ways There isn′t anything you can say to me To make me change my mind
Change why don′t you? Why can′t you see this through my eyes I see through your disguise You′re making me that thing that I despise
Do everything you have to do To change my mind Even when you see me shadow you You play the blind I′m the one thats losing face here And changing ways There isn′t anything you can say to me To make me change my mind this time...
Wise up because I′m fed you better back up. You got a bad attitude comin′ up from inside you better watch your mouth you got plenty to hide you come across so heavy you′re a buck-o-five better rest your fist and try to use your mind I′m not punkin′ out I′m just movin′ up say your comments loud but try to back ′em up keep your ass far away and stay with yourself alone in a cage aggravate someone else. Wise up because I′m fed you better back up. You in your baggy jeans with your baggy lip you ′bout to lose all your shit with the butt of my fist you better use your mind fast and bring your pressure down quick ′cause you feather weight fuckin′ in this heavyweight clique′ you know karate got a shiny gun in your hand got a razor blade hat with a knife in the brim I ask you all the questions don′t look at him your own stupid answers got you what you are in...
"Just be patient" the best advise I did not take. "Super stellar first impression" i did not make. My own insecurities are not as bad as you make them out to be, and out time is running out so fast.
I move this fast, and i make mistakes for my own sake.
Can′t you see that all of your times are wasting while we′re wasted? Tripping over (and over and over) our own feet when we look too hard, for what′s older, older, yes older. Then the day we got to this world that enough for me to make a good impression when I′m walking through the door.
I move this fast, and i make mistakes for my own sake.
I′ll do what i have to, to be everything you want me to. Without putting you through all the questions I′d like to mention to you.
I move this fast, and i make mistakes for my own sake.
What is the emergency? Why are we moving so fast? The questions you ask, they′re too much for me. If you don′t know the answers, well I don′t think we can last.
[Chorus 1] The things you want to know about me, are the things I already want you to know. Or, things that I want you to find on your own. How can that be wrong?
[Chorus 2] Yo soy lo que soy. (I am what I am) No me voy. (I do not go away) Buscandome. (looking for myself)
Should I explain what I′m trying to say? Okay, here′s how I feel in the nicest way. Fuck you and everything that you believe, you′re supposed to know. You deserve to know nothing. Cause nothing′s what you show!
[Chorus 1 and 2]
It doesn′t matter if I′m wrong or if I′m right, it only matters in the long run. It doesn′t matter how long the fight. I′m fighting till I make this right for every one. Only thing that matters is when we′re done.
I can′t control myself You deserve to feel the way I do (found a way, found a way) What if you were called a freak Until you were 22 (found a way, found a way) What would it do to you? Oh, what would it do to you?
With every door inside you locked And all the windows boarded up There′s always a way out So I had to make you stop Live my life and shut you up There′s always a way out
Did I make this clear to you You deserve to fight the way I′ve had to
What if they took your pride, respect, your life, your blood, your sweat, your tears, Your lies, your fears, your wife, your kids, your mind, you did!
With every door inside you locked And all the windows boarded up There′s always a way out So I had to make you stop Live my life and shut you up There′s always a way out
I found a way out
With every door inside you locked And all the windows boarded up There′s always a way out So I had to make you stop Live my life and shut you up There′s always a way out
With every window and every door My hands and knees on the floor With every door and every lock And every window boarded up Just shuts you up, shuts you up Just shuts you up
My head is drowning in a sea of animosity the waves of confusion are crashing over top of me I′m just trying to survive doing everything I have to just to stay alive I try to breath but the waters keep on choking me I try to swim but my arms and legs are killing me I′m just trying to survive doing everything I have to just to stay alive
I just need sometime so I can breathe Call it what you want to.. still have to do this for me I just need sometime so I can breath call it what you want to.. still have to do this for me
I′m over it i′m over it I′m giving up on you I′m over it i′m over it I′m just trying to survive But everything I do looks so hopeless on the outside Things I said just to try to make sense Things I didn′t to protect me from the consequence I′m just trying to survive doing everything I have to, to stay alive this time
I just need sometime so I can breathe Call it what yo want to.. still have to do this for me I just need sometime so I can breathe call it what you want to.. still have to do this for me
Things havent changed You havent changed And I havent changed Things that you say You want to change You havent changed Youre still the same
The words that you never approve of The way that you call out my name The lies that you tell to protect me The same Playing in your little games You try to make me go crazy Im stronger then i was before You tried but you failed me And this time im ready for war
Things havent changed You havent changed And I havent changed Things that you say You want to change You havent changed Youre still the same
The time that we wasted on our fighting The same The things that we argue about Excuses you give about everything The reasons i give why i shout And how things could have been better If i never met you before You try but your failing me And this time im ready for war
Things havent changed You havent changed And I havent changed Things that you say You want to change They stay the same Things havent changed We just stay the same You havent changed I havent changed We havent changed Were just the same
Gotta make the list of what is best gotta make the fist and beat against have to leave an impression do you have a suggestion? i′m all out of good ideas the ones you have always put into your ears with all you care to share how did i end up here?
your signs are pointing to nowhere that′s exactly where i won′t go your signs are pointing to nowhere and no one that i know will ask all you care to show me care to show me
gotta make the list of what is best gotta make the fist and beat against have to make this perfectly clear i′m not waiting for one million years for us in general you make the chemical situation i put us in unfamiliar in foreign land
your signs are pointing to nowhere that′s exactly where i won′t go your signs are pointed to nowhere and no one that i know will ask all you care to show me
how would you like me where would you like me to be and could you make me worry just a little more the way you look at me confuses me even with you next to me
your signs are pointed to nowhere that′s exactly where i won′t go your signs are pointing to nowhere and no one that i know will ask all that you care to show me your signs your signs (care to show me) your signs care to show me care to show me i won′t go
...The things we need and the things we strive for that feeling again comes so deep and warm. I taste your breath just as sweet as sugar a simple reminder of how we BURN. BURN... I got that funky feelin I feel it all around. I got that funky feelin do you hear that techno sound. I got that funky feelin I feel it all around. I got that funky feelin do you hear that techno sound. It′s coming quick you′d best not turn your back cause the facts represent we got the skills that they lack the MDMA up in my veins making me insane warm squiggles up and down my brain, brain, brain, brain, brain. I got that funky feelin I feel it all around. I got that funky feelin do you hear that techno sound. I got that funky feelin I feel it all around. I got that funky feelin do you hear that techno sound. You got a simple reputation you take a look and you will see the time is now the now is here you feel that ecstacy and this is how we how we burn the tables turn and your lessons are learned you find yourself another way to spend your double stacked day this is how we, how we, how we... This is how we burn. I won′t be neglected. I won′t be denied. The pleasure of your kisses. The pleasure of your smile. You take for granted And I′ll always be here. Well just because I love you doesn′t mean I won′t disappear. Now I arise and I see the sunshine but I still I′m all right I′m breathing just fine I look the same to you but I see through a haze on these doublestacked days.
I′ll take back what is left of what you had barley enough to keep me dead.
Tell me how to make some sense of the the mess you left me with. You used up every chance with me. To settle for you won′t settle for me.
This need for more has me cold, and shaky. No more waiting for a reaction face when they hear about, the trouble that started when you and I met, and let me remind you I plan to get through, with or without you.
Tell me how to make some sense of the the mess you left me with. You used up every chance with me. To settle for you won′t settle for me.
Want verus need. Don′t push me, I have no need. Buy or sell, those beans are a nuclear falling out, disaster. That called in the troops even faster then when all the lights went to red instead of the days when we made eachother.
And we try to make some sense of the the mess you left me with. You used up every chance with me. To settle for you won′t settle for me.
Later please, doesn′t put my mind at ease, pushes me away. Say what you have to...
And you try to make some sense of the the mess you left me with. You used up every chance with me. To settle for you won′t settle for me.
Tell me how to make sense of this non-sense, distress. Won′t settle down...
Later please, doesn′t put my mind at ease, pushes me away. Say what you have to say...
One more problem. How you′ve got them. All tied up with a million things to do. Two more problems, how I′ve got them. One is someone else. Two is you. I hate that it had to come to this so fast. How else would i know if we would last.
Making mountains out of mole hills, taking fountains past their filf. Making mountains out of mole hills, and making me want to kill.
Every wonder, every question, every thing that I′m not so sure is real. Every funny look, every stop and stare, every doubt in my mind that you still care. I hate that it had to come to this so fast. How else would i know if we would last.
Making mountains out of mole hills, taking fountains past their filf. Making mountains out of mole hills, and making me want to kill.
Making mountain, taking fountains, shaking grounds with tinny problems. Co-created from the way you give direction with affection.
Making mountains out of mole hills, taking fountains past their filf. Making mountains out of mole hills, and making me want to kill.
I just got back from hell Skin blistered bruised up. Couldn′t you tell? Eyes still burning because I′ve been a witness to this fucked up thing the world′s become Dollar sign motives in every command The south still starving from past hurricanes Kids taking pills just to help them fit in Newspaper wars on television
I could care less about... I could care less about it Wake up world.
Cut loose criminals roaming the streets Offering little kids candy to eat While mommy watches tv on the edge of her couch With daddy right beside her stuffin his fuckin mouth!
Money hungry assholes making decisions For poor people without their permission God help us all. We need the answers to the questions We never get answered at home.
I could care less about... I could care less about it Wake up world.
What I do makes the worst of you. And a good situation gone bad from the start: a classification that slowy tears us apart.
Forget about polite, hurry up and fight. Your words are just lying there helpless. Hurry up and fight. And get inside. We′ve started, while you wait for nothing.
Where did our calm conversations go? Why don′t we continue this show? I don′t want to relax, or lower my voice. it′s my choice, and i proudly choose to hide.
Forget about polite, hurry up and fight. Your words are just lying there helpless. Hurry up and fight. And get inside. We′ve started, while you wait for nothing.
These walls are so thin, I can hear every sin. No confession, for obsessions that they covet, and squeeze in your arms. Cause your hiding, while confiding is going too far past the point of harmless charm.
Forget about polite, hurry up and fight. Your words are just lying there helpless. Hurry up and fight. And get inside. We′ve started, while you wait for nothing.
While you wait for nothing... Forget about polite! Get inside.
[Chorus] I didn′t ask you to explain yourself to me. The fact you feel you have to is enough evidence, to see right through all the bullshit, and the stories you create. I didn′t ask to be a game for you to play with.
Didn′t ask for anything in return that wouldn′t, be asked by anyone else. Respect is something I demand. Worked hard enough to understand. People say what you want to hear, if something comes out of it for them. Even some of the people you′re calling your friends, are waiting for the second they don′t have to pretend. What I expect from you is straight forward no frills, no lies unless they kill. I don′t want to die from a truth that you never told. A book that you never closed. Read the rest and come back when you′ve learned what you′re supposed to.
[Chorus]
I expect the world, cause I give it in return. And if you know me well enough you know I burn bridges, with flaky muthafuckers and stool pigeons. They have their own agenda, and the people that they burn will eventually see everything crystal. Then fire like an automatic pistol. They didn′t ask you to choose the way you did. All your wrong words, wrong looks, judgments passed, closed books, bad reactions. No apologetic actions took, by either stuborn side. So you return to your lonely life.
[Chorus x2]
Didn′t ask to be the one. The one to make you see. You chose me. I didn′t ask you to.
I′m getting over it pusing past all the bullshit, and getting right to the root of what the problem really is. All the reasons for the misunderstandings, the emergency landings on a plane headed for home. It′s where the heart was living till it was without feeling, and started revealing itself to everyone else. By just packing up and moving out. Saying it could do with out a barely able, unstable, running off at the mouth.
[Chorus 1] So I′m tearing this and everything else, between me and what I want to do to peices. I′m tearing this and everything else, between me and you a memory.
[Chorus 2] I′m stronger now, even after everything that you did. I′m still alive and kicking. I′m better now. I′m awake now. I can see everything in front of me, now.
Now if you would′ve waited one second, you wouldn′t feel so second the second I put you first, it made the situation worse. Cuz you want to take advantage and control, of the things that I manage to keep under control. Like my hapiness, my family, and all of my music. You had it all. You chose to abuse it.
[Chorus 1 and 2]
What′s wrong with me? You want to know what′s wrong with me? I could ask you the exact same thing.
I have my opinion and you have yours. You don′t have to like mine, cuz i don′t like yours.
What′s wrong with you? I want to know what′s wrong with you, and why this doesn′t make sense to you?
Take me to the pain, and all the way back again. Taking me to the pain, and all the way back.
Life sums up in three words, better than average. It never comes easy. It′s a savage world. With damage attached, and doses of happiness, in between if you can survive the rest.
The lies that consume you. Pain. The pain shows you the way. The feeling kills inside you. Pain. But you stay knowing eventually, the pain goes away.
You have to get through it somehow. I′ll tell you when, the time isn′t now!
[Chorus] I′m on the ground with 110 men, beating the life from me. I shake off most of them, to reveal my shattered bones. My stand my decision to, my reasons for it all. I take the way of the others...
Straight back to the pain, and all the way back again. Taking me to the pain, and all the way back.
Forget about taking though, seeing past, understanding, letting it go, forgiving and forgetting, when we know everything we know and doing nothing about it.
We′re just puppets with the hand of pain controlling form inside us and it takes us to the pain. Knowing that they hurt us when they take us back around again.
Straight back to the pain, and all the way back.
Could I put it down on paper for you? Then you′re forcing me to suffer you.
[Chorus]
How alone we are till the pain comes along. How alone we are till the pain comes along. And when you think it′s never going to pass, it′s feeling so good at last. Just when you think it′s never going to pass, it′s feeling so good at last...
I wanted to be right to change a common situation, that always seems to happen to me. But then I gave into the way of common desperation, and dedicated time to find the weakness in me. The freedom to react and attack it when I′m defensive. My decision, a solid metal rock wall, extended inside of every argument created, by the difference between the way I think, and the way the world is doing it.
[Chorus] The world can be wrong today for once. You′ll have to be wrong today. For once, I can′t be wrong. I was wrong before.
Didn′t know a lot about what I to do, about changing my way of thinking. So I blend instead of being separate. Things don′t always have to go my way. But, this always being wrong is driving me crazy. Where′s the American Dream guarantee, if I do it-exactly-your way?
I′ve seen your followers fall. You leave them behind. I′m not letting the same thing happen to me.
[Chorus]
One to one pointed at the one, looking for the meaning in a shotgun blast. Heading to the things that they left upstairs. Dated idea with an animal stare.
One to one pointed at the ignorant, judgemental, think you know everything. There is to know about everything. You want to be king without responsibility. It′s circling. The pack is circling.
[Chorus]
One to one pointed at the one, looking for the meaning in a shotgun blast. One to one pointed at the ignorant, judgemental, think you know everythin
This is a march of war The last chance to settle the score The battle lines well defined A fight that we both fought before
What do you want from me? You couldn′t give me what I need I said this a thousand times before Now watch me walk out the door
I′ll never be the person you want me to be What do you want from me? What do you need from me? I′ll never see the reason that you always seem to see What do you need from me?
I′ll never be the person you want me to be What do you want from me? What do you need from me? I′ll never be the person you want me to be
This is the march of war A fight that we fought before You can′t make a square peg fit In a hole filled with solid brick
I′ve made up my mind I′m leaving this time It doesn′t matter what you think anymore I′ve already walked out the door
I′ll never be the person you want me to be What do you want from me? What do you need from me? I′ll never see the reason that you always seem to see What do you need from me? I′ll never be the person you want me to be What do you want from me? What do you need from me? I′ll never be the person you want me to be
No more secrets No more games Not another day of living this way Cigarette smoke filled room concealing Everthing your heart is feeling
You took away the only thing left worth fighting for The lock is broken on the front door And everybody′s walking in covered in mud To take turns on the thing that you′ve become
What′s done is done and done is gone so Let what′s coming come All this ends here and now Cause I′m about to put my foot down
I′ve been a witness To all of your lies and games I′ve been a witness
You are the worst mistake i ever made I′ve been a witness To all of the games you play So sick of your bullshit You are the worst mistake i ever made
Not another word Not until they heard Every single bad situation that occured Every wrong look and feeling You got me crawling on the god damn ceilings I′m taking all the evidence calling all the papers Plastering your face on every television station No more back ally cover-up bullshit I′m leaving and I′m taking what I came with
What′s done is done and done is gone so Let what′s coming come All this ends here and now Cause I′m about to put my foot down
I′ve been a witness To all of your lies and games I′ve been a witness You are the worst mistake i ever made I′ve been a witness To all of the games you play So sick of your bullshit You are the worst mistake i ever made
I′ve been a witness to you And all of the things that you do You make my job so easy Because you look so guilty
I′ve been a witness To all of your lies and games I′ve been a witness You are the worst mistake i ever made I′ve been a witness To all of the games you play So sick of your bullshit You are the worst mistake i ever made
Trying to find the words, making my mind up from what you′ve heard.
Winding down you′re just finding what indifference you′re having today. Make your mind up it′s never the same. Sinking down, ceiling climbing, while you′re up to your neck in the same situation and start to complain.
Trying to find the words, making my mind up from what you′ve heard.
You can′t fool me with your smiles. Seen you treat whom you call your friends, and you′ll never be called that again. Been on your knees for a while, searching through broken glass with your hands, can i offer you gloves again?
Trying to find the words, making my mind up from what you′ve heard.
The way, the time, the chance, a glance, a second look at your stance on the way the day could change strange days to normal days.
