No Reason

All of us beleive
That this is not up to you
The fact of the matter is
That it's up to me

Hey, Hey, Hey
Hey, Hey, Hey
Let's Go

How can we fake this anymore
Turn our backs away, and chose to just ignore
(Some say) Some say it's ignorance
It makes me feel some innocence
(Some say) It takes away a part of me
But I won't let go

Tell me why can't you see, it's not the way
When we all fall down, it will be too late
Why is there no reason we can't change
When we all fall down, who will take the blame
What will it take

Nothing could ever be this real
A life unsatisfied that I could never feel
(Some say) This future's not so bright
Some can't make the sacrifice
(Some say) It's much more than just black and white
And I won't follow

Tell me why can't you see, it's not the way
When we all fall down, it will be too late
Why is there no reason we can't change
When we all fall down, who will take the blame
What will it take

Times like these I've come to see how,
Everything but time is running out

Hey, Hey, Hey
Hey, Hey, Hey
What

All of us beleive in what we need
What we have's what we don't see

Tell me why can't you see, it's not the way
When we all fall down, it will be too late
Why is there no reason we can't change
When we all fall down, who will take the blame
What will it take

Tell me why can't you see, it's not the way
(so how long, has this gone on, i don't see this ending)
When we all fall down, it will be too late
(it's too late, we can't change, what has now begun)
Why is there no reason we can't change
(we act like, its not right, why are we pretending)
When we all fall down, who will take the blame
(we've been wrong, for so long)
What will it take
(WE'VE KNOWN THIS ALL ALONG)

We're All to Blame

intro

Take everything left from me!
ALL!TO!BLAME!

how can we succeed taking what we dont need
telling lies as alibis, selling all the hate that we breed super size
our tragedies (you cant define me or justify greed)bought in the land of
free (land, free)

and now, were all to blame
weve gone to far, from pride to shame
were trying so hard, were dying in vain
were hopelessly blissful and blind, to all we are
we want it all
WITH NO SACRAFICE!

realize we spent our lives living in a culture of fear
stand to salute and say thanks to the man of the year
how did we all come to this(you cant define me or justify greed)
a greed that we just cant resist(re-sist)

and were all to blame
we've gone to far, from pride to shame
were trying so hard, were dying in vain
were hopelessly blissful and blind, to all we are
we want it all
everyone, wants it all
WITH NO SACRAFICE!

tell me know, what have we done, we dont know
I cant allow what has begun to tear me down
believe me know, we have no choice left with our backs against the wall

and now, were all to blame
we've gone too far, from pride to shame
were trying so hard, were dying in vain
were hopelessly blissful and blind
when all we need is something true, to believe
dont we all
everyone, everyone
we will fall

cause were all to blame
we've gone to far, from pride to shame
were trying so hard, were dying in vain
we want it all, everyone
dont we all...

Angels With Dirty Faces

I need this to get me through
can't resist, don't want to
believe it I know it's true
can't beat it, don't want to try

A perfect hell!

It's more to me than you ever will know
down here where the rest of us fell
waste away nothing left to show
while I'm in this perfect hell

obsession has begun
possessed by destruction
how did I get so low
believe me no one knows
sometimes I can't hold on
and no one can help me

now it's got a hold of me
I don't think I can make it through this
now it's got a hold of me
the less I do the more it makes no sense

I'm walking pollution who's drained by delusions
on the verge of destruction I cave in to abduction
thin blood I'm bleeding my pulse won't stop racing
just as my heart explodes

no chance that I could win
too hard to not give in
I just don't feel the same
cause I'm the one to blame
sometimes I can't hold on
and no one can help me

now it's got a hold of me
I don't think I can make it through this
now it's got a hold of me
the less I do the more it makes no sense

I need this to be myself
it feels like I need some help
it's too late to save myself
or it's just in my head

now it's got a hold of me
I don't think I can make it through this
now it's got a hold of me
the less I do the more it makes no sense

now it's got a hold of me
I don't think I can make it through this
now it's got a hold of me
the less I do the more it makes no sense

Some Say

some say we're never meant to grow up
but I'm sure they never knew enough
I know the pressures won't go
away it's too late
find out we're different somehow
it's too late to even have faith
don't think things will ever change
you must be dreaming

think before you make up your mind
you don't seem to realize
I can do this on my own
and if I fall I'll take it all
it's so easy after all

believe me cos now's the time to try
don't wait the chance will pass you by
time's up to figure it out
you can't say it's too late
seems like everything we knew
turned out were never even true
don't trust things will ever change
you must be dreaming

think before you make up your mind
you don't seem to realize
I can do this on my own
and if I fall I'll take it all
it's so easy after all

some say we're better off without
knowing what life is all about
I'm sure they'll never realize
the way it's too late
somehow it's different everyday
in some ways it never fades away
it seems like it's never gonna change
I must be dreaming

think before you make up your mind
you don't seem to realize
I can do this on my own
think before you make up your mind
you don't seem to realize
I can do this on my own
and if I fall I'll take it all
it's so easy after all

believe me it's alright
it's so easy after all
believe me it's alright
it's so easy after all

The Bitter End

there's no doubt in my mind when it's over
what is done will be
you will find when life gets colder there's no sympathy
there's no point trying you can't escape the bitter end
well who will greet you when you're at the bitter end

all your choices chosen you've got no say
your decisions made
face your consequences as your life begins to fade
as time keeps spinning closer to the bitter end
well who will greet you when you're at the bitter end

take a look at yourself as time keeps racing
is all you've come to be
what you expected or are you still chasing possibilities
cause all your prayers won't save you from the bitter end
well who will greet you when you're at the bitter end

Open Your Eyes

Lately,
I'm not quite myself.
Maybe,
I do need some help.
Just my confusion,
Trust my delusion.

Don't you,
Regret you met me.
Go through,
These steps to get me,
Back to where we start,
'Fore I fall apart.

If I could black out,
It'd become so clear,
Standing face-to-face with everything I fear.
Watch so closely,
but still I don't see.
As bad as it seems,
a piece of mind I steal,
An ordinary life,
But consequences real.
I'm past the point of reality.

This isn't me,
This isn't you,
When it's just everything we do.
Till you open up your eyes,
and understand this isn't real.
This isn't me,
This isn't you,
This is everything but true,
Till we come to realize,
It's what we put each other through.

It's like a bad dream,
Coming all so true,
Leaving me with nothing else left to do.
Now so helpless,
I'm not so selfish.
Tell me,
How does it feel to have a face like that,
How does it feel to be replaced like that.
Now so faceless,
Do you still feel?

This isn't me,
This isn't you,
When it's just everything we do.
Till you open up your eyes,
and understand this isn't real.
This isn't me,
This isn't you,
This is everything but true,
Till we come to realize,
It's what we put each other through.

It's hard to believe right now,
This seems to be real.
Still phasing by this time,
So why can't I wake up.

This isn't me,
This isn't you,
When it's just everything we do.
Till you open up your eyes,
and understand this isn't real.
This isn't me,
This isn't you,
This is everything but true,
Till we come to realize,
It's what we put each other through.

Slipping Away

I'm slipping away
In every way
I can't stay awake (and I don't know why)
I'm slipping away (and I don't know why)

I'm trying to make it through each day
I'm falling apart now in every way
I'm finding it harder to get by
There's a hole in my heart
And I don't know why
Now I've come to realize

I'm slipping away

I'm Not the One

welcome to obsession
it makes the world go 'round
we're made up by the people we surround
we live and die for shit we don't need
well maybe that's the price of envy
through these eyes I look out for me
but everyone fades in ways we don't see
nothing's gonna change
we're going down in flames
I'm not the one

don't wait for me
cause I won't just sit by
while you just bleed
myself and others dry
don't wait for me
to be there in the end
when you don't see
the truth you just pretend
don't wait for me

what it the solution
we don't already know
there's no telling how far this could go
you do your time punch in it's the same
cause you're just part of this game
there's nothing you could do to save yourself
you leave your life in the hands of someone else
they'll never let it go
it's the only way you know
I'm not the one

don't wait for me
cause I won't just sit by
while you just bleed
myself and others dry
don't wait for me
to be there in the end
when you don't see
the truth you just pretend
don't wait for me

when did we begin
to let ourselves give in
how'd it come to this
miserable bliss

just take the rest of
just take the best of me
just take the rest of
just take the best of me
you take the rest of me
just take the best of me
you take the rest of me
just take the best

don't wait for me
cause I won't just sit by
while you just bleed
myself and others dry
don't wait for me
to be there in the end
when you don't see
the truth you just pretend
don't wait for me

Welcome to Hell

don't come to me with your problems I don't need them
your conscience is a weight that I won't hold
you'd rather be the only who pretends
is it cause you've been bought and sold so young

don't ask me questions cause I don't got the answers
if you only knew what time will tell
it's all a test and lessons that you can't learn
you'll know when you spend your time in hell

as your blood's running thin your time's running out
no one will be listening not even when you shout
when your angels turn to devils you'll finally figure out
that no one will be with you in end

a hypocrite you're just a contradiction
rapped up in your lies who knows what's real
well this is it your lonely life of fiction
do you even know how to feel

as your blood's running thin your time's running out
no one will be listening not even when you shout
when your angels turn to devils you'll finally figure out
that no one will be with you in end

the end
the end
the end

Pieces

I tried to be perfect
But nothing was worth it
I don?t believe it makes me real
I thought it?d be easy
But no one believes me
I meant all the things I said

If you believe it?s in my soul
I?d say all the words that I know
Just to see if it would show
That I?m trying to let you know
That I?m better off on my own

This place is so empty
My thoughts are so tempting
I don?t know how it got so bad
Sometimes it?s so crazy
That nothing can save me
But it?s the only thing that I have

If you believe it?s in my soul
I?d say all the words that I know
Just to see if it would show
That I?m trying to let you know
That I?m better off on my own

On my own

I tried to be perfect
It just wasn?t worth it
Nothing could ever be so wrong
It?s hard to believe me
It never gets easy
I guess I knew that all along

If you believe it?s in my soul
I?d say all the words that I know
Just to see if it would show
That I?m trying to let you know
That I?m better off on my own

There's No Solution

Maybe nothing else will ever be so clear,
Or maybe that's only my fear...
If just for one day I wish I could disappear,
Just take me far from here...
Maybe I'd find out nothing new,
Maybe I'd end up just like you...

There's no solution, (No solution)
Give me truth to my conviction...
Is my own confusion, (My own confusion)
Reality or fiction...
Am I out of my mind?

This constant pressure that keeps hanging over me,
It makes me feel so empty...
It's more than anything that I could ever be,
What else could you take from me...
It's getting harder to relate,
Don't want to make the same mistakes...

There's no solution, (No solution)
Give me truth to my conviction...
Is my own confusion, (My own confusion)
Reality or fiction...
Am I out of my mind?

It took me so long to find out it's right,
There in front of me...
Too close to see,
What I thought was true...
I see right through what's killing you...

There's no solution, (I can't see...)
Give me truth to my conviction...
Is my own confusion, (That I feel...)
Reality or fiction...
Am I out of my mind?

So maybe nothing else will ever be so clear...
Or maybe that's only my fear... (Am I out of my mind?)
If just for one day I wish I could disappear,
Just take me far from here... (Am I out of my mind?)

88

Wait how long would you wait
just for me to call
I know you make mistakes
yeah but
I hope some day you have it all
cause I feel like a prisoner
trapped inside this broken world
while I'm playing the victim again
running in circles
to me it's all the same
and though nothing's gonna change
Still, I hope someday you have it all

Take this aggravation that I've thrown myself into
change this situation just cause I need something new

And still I feel like a prisoner
trapped inside this broken world
while I'm playing the victim again
running in circles
to me it's all the same
and though nothing's gonna change
Still, I hope someday you have it all

I hope some day you have it all

if we could all depend
on what we know
if you could understand
I'm losing control
that I'm losing control
that I'm losing control
that I'm losing control

Does This Look Infected? [2002]

The Hell Song

Everybody's got their problems
everbody says the same thing to you
It's just a matter of how you solve them
and knowing how to change the things you'be been through

I feel I've come to realized, how fast life can be compromised
Step back to see what's going on
I can't believe this happend to you
This happend to you

It's just a problem that we're faced with, am i
not the only one who hates to stand by
Complications ended first in this line
with all these pictures running through my mind
Knowing endless consequences, I feel so useless in this
Get back, step back and as for me, I can't believe

Part of me won't agree cause I don't know if it's for sure
Suddenly, suddenly I don't feel so insecure
Part of me won't agree cause I don't know if it's for sure
Suddenly, suddenly I don't feel so insecure anymore

Everybody's got their problems
everbody says the same thing to you
It's just a matter of how you solve them
but what else are we supposed to do?

Part of me won't agree cause I don't know if it's for sure
Suddenly, suddenly I don't feel so insecure
Part of me won't agree cause I don't know if it's for sure
Suddenly, suddenly I don't feel so insecure anymore

Why do things that matter the most
never end up being what we chose
Now the life i know ain't so bad
I don't think I knew what I had

Why do things that matter the most
never end up being what we chose
Now the life i know ain't so bad
I don't think I knew what I had

Over My Head (Better off Dead)

What happend to you?
You've played the victim for so long now in this game
What I thought was true
is made of fiction and I'm following the same

But if i try to make sense of this mess I'm in
I'm not sure where I should begin
I'm falling, I'm falling

Now I'm in
Over my head, with something I said
Completely misread I'm better off dead
And now i can see, how fake you can be
This hypocracy's beginning to get to me

It's none of my concern
Don't look to me because I don't believe in fame
I guess you never heard
I've met our makers they don't even know your name

If I had to say goodbye to leave this hell
I'd say my time has served me well
I'm falling, I'm falling

Now I'm in
Over my head, with something I said
Completely misread I'm better off dead
And now i can see, how fake you can be
This hypocracy's beginning to get to...

This came long before,
those who suffer more
I'm too awake for this to be a nightmare
What's with my disgrace
I lost the human race
no one plans for it to
blow up in their face

Who said it was easy to put back all these pieces
Who said it was so easy to put back all of these pieces

Now I'm in
Over my head, with something I said
Completely misread I'm better off dead
And now i can see, how fake you can be
This hypocracy's beginning to get to me

Over my head, better off dead
Over my head, better off dead
Alright

My Direction

Perfection is my direction
Even if that's all I had
Its not like I need no correction,
I just know that life's not so bad

Picture this, everyday,
Kids that just can't find a way,
Stuck in this erect,
Can't find hope for better days
Its our 2 generation,
Our child of frustration

In the last 30 years teenage suicide has increased 300% in north america & is the 2nd major continent attached to canada.

Perfection is my direction
Even if that's all I had
Its not like I need no correction,
I just know that life's not so bad

When will all my problems disappear?
Am I just going crazy from the fear?
Oh why am I going far past the break
The bridge is like a way,
And I still can't think straight.

Perfection is my direction
Even if that's all I had
Its not like I need no correction,
I just know that life's not so bad

I met my destination
What's life to complain about?
All these aggrivations
Building till the sea fall out
I'm running by, no lie,
When every time I lie,
(don't tell me without a doubt this new found luck has all run out [repeat])

Perfection is my direction
Even if that's all I had
Its not like I need no correction,
I just know that life's not so bad

Still Waiting

So am I still waiting
For this world to stop hating
Can't find a good reason
Can't find hope to believe in

Drop dead a bullet to my head
Your words are like a gun in hand
You can't change the state of the nation
We just need some motivation
Three times I see no conviction
Just lies and more contradiction

So tell me what would you say
I'd say it's time (to listen)

So am I still waiting
For this world to stop hating
Can't find a good reason
Can't find hope to believe in

Ignorance and understanding
We're the first ones to jump in line
Out of step for what we believe in
But whos left? to start the pleading
How far will we take this
It's not hard to see through the sickness

So tell me what would you say
I'd say it's time (to listen)

So am I still waiting
For this world to stop hating
Can't find a good reason
Can't find hope to believe in

This can't last forever
Time won't make things better
I feel so alone
Can't help myself
And no one knows
If this is worthless
Tell me: so

What have we done
We're in a war that can't be won
This can't be real
I don't know what to feel

So am I still waiting
For this world to stop hating
Can't find a good reason
Can't find hope to believe in

So am I still waiting
For this world to stop hating
Can't find a good reason
Can't find hope to believe in

A.N.I.C.

Fuckin Shit!
You look like ass you smell like shit
so why are you such a dick.
You walk around like you're the tits
you always make me sick.
Bound for agony,
Your life's catastrophe.
You look like ass you smell like shit
so why are you such a dick.
You walk around like you're the tits
you always make me sick.
Bound for agony,
Your life's catastrophe.
You're an asshole
You're an asshole
You're an asshole
You're an asshole
you make me sick.

No Brains

Can't step in my way
head first in your love and dismay
It's like beating the dead
I can't stop going out of my head
whatever this could be I'd never know,
I never said it'd be the end all to be all

I hate you today,
I can't find a way,
don't drag me down now,

[Chorus:]
Goodbye, I've had enough frustration
I won't get stuck
Goodbye, this dead end situation,
it's just not worth my time

It's no better today,
I never thought it would end up this way,
you've got something to say?
don't wanna hear it if it gets in my way
All this confusion, wondering, so overwhelmed,
All this illusion seems so clear,
Can't find conclusion dissapointing evolution
not all things aren't what they appear

So what's the point of this hell?
I know you too well we're running backwards,

[Chorus]

But waiting so frustrating, I'm so sick of
All this tension not to mention, I'm so sick of
Can't take it, you won't make it, just save yourself this trouble
(everything's alright)
Get down and pray for yourself 'cause I'm just fine
(everything's alright)

[Guitar Solo]

You speak for all of us when you can't be heard
(I can't help you anymore than)

I'll bet you haven't listened to not one word
(I have helped myself before)

You speak for all of us when you can't be heard
(I can't help you anymore than)
(So sick of, feel so sick of, so sick of, feel so sick of)

I'll bet you haven't listened to not one word
(I have helped myself before)
(So sick of, feel so sick of, so sick of, feel so sick of)

[Chorus]

But waiting so frustrating, I'm so sick of,
All this tension not to mention, I'm so sick of, sick of you!

All Messed Up

Another day wasted out of time
I can't get out of this
Altered state of mind
I'm going overboard
My conscience meets decline
Into reality
I know this can't be fine

[chorus]
Cause I'm all messed up
Making prefect nonsense
Drowning in my doubt too well
Cause I'm all messed up
Going nowhere fast but circles in my mind
So blind

Who are these voices in my head
I can't go on like this
Living like the dead
I haven't slept so long
Feeling sad I dread
I'm talking to myself
Forgot what I just said

[repeat chorus]

Well I hold my only enemy as closely as a friend
And I sold my own reality to further my descent

Self-destruction taking over it's so easy to pretend
Introduction to this nightmare may never end

Can anyone help me drag my heels
I'm running overtime
I can't hold down my meals
My mind is racing by
Staring blankly feels
Like pulling out my teeth
While this engine winds

[repeat chorus]

Mr. Amsterdam

I've said this before no matter how hard I try.
I can't help be bored while this world passes by.

SO!

This revelation's got no meaning.
We've lost it all in hopeless dreaming.

AM I JUST LOSING GRIP??
Paint it black and just forget me.
THIS WORLD'S A SINKING SHIP!
'Cause our baggage is too heavy

I can't stop believing that there's something to be said.
What are we achieving with the bull shit that we're fed?
I know I'm not gonna stay, or live to see the day,
this world comes to be, here's a resignation from me.
A resignation from me.
A resignation from me.

I've said this before no matter how hard I try.
I can't help be bored while this world passes by.

Don't tell me we're close to something, that we don't even understand.

WE'RE PRISONERS TO OUR HOMES!!
Some might say we're all to blame.
THE OUTSIDE'S SO UNKNOWN!!!
I don't want you to complain.

I can't find the answers to save humanity.
I can't fight the anger.
Here's a resignation from me.
A resignation from me.
A resignation from me.
A resignation from me.
A resignation from me.

[Instrumental]

Thanks for Nothing

I'll never take part in the grown population
Or waste my time with further education (hooha!)
To get what we know, is just a big show
Where they want to control
So chained and frustrated
It's all so complicated
Fashion, no passion surrounds me

All I know is I've heard this all before
Reality's a bore (is a bore)
You ask me to believe it (never believe)
Something they provide
Can't bring myself to, to what
You want me to (want me to)
This is who we are and (who we are)
Nothing's gonna change, nothing's gonna change

I can't take part in the business revolution
Or take my chance in the real world confusion
Don't blame us, who do we trust when they're so dis-a-honest
No patience, this nation's obsessed with exploitation
Lying, denying surrounds me

All I know is I've heard this all before
Reality's a bore (is a bore)
You ask me to believe it (never believe)
Something they provide
Can't bring myself to, to what
You want me to (want me to)
This is who we are and (who we are)
Nothing's gonna change

(what!) don't think you can ignore us (ignore us)
Don't tell me your word is right (word is right)
Don't pick a future for us (for us)
We lack 'cause we're involved!!

All I know is I've heard this all before
Reality's a bore (is a bore)
You ask me to believe it (never believe)
Something they provide
Can't bring myself to, to what
You want me to (want me to)
This is who we are and (who we are)
Nothing's gonna change

Thanks for nothing (I've heard this all before),
Thanks for nothing (reality's a bore),
Thanks for nothing (it'll never be the same),
Thanks for nothing (and nothing's gonna change)

Billy Spleen

I'm heading for the end on top of this bullshit
I don't want to hear it.
I found my way again.
It's hard to explain it
I know that I hate it
I don't feel this could be real.
I find so hard I'm falling apart
So much so much for what for what we said.
No matter what I say, you turn your back away.
It's never going to break you,
It's never going to make you fall.
No matter what I say, you turn your back away.
It's never going to break you,
It's never going to make you fall.
This fake reality I never can make up the time that you take up.
It's my worst enemy.
I'm on a mission to feed my addiction.
So sick of thoughts so empty.
It's well overflowed I'm bound to explode.
So much so much for what for what we said.
No matter what I say, you turn your back away.
It's never going to break you,
It's never going to make you fall.
No matter what I say, you turn your back away.
It's never going to break you,
It's never going to make you fall.
Somehow between the lines it's clearer
Locked down and chained up to the mirror.
Somehow between the lines it's clearer
Locked down it takes apart of me.
I'm heading for the end on top of this bullsh**
I don't want to hear it.
I found my way again.
It's hard to explain it
I know that I hate it
I don't feel this could be real.
I find so hard I'm falling apart
So much so much for what for what we said.
No matter what I say,
You turn your back away.
It's never going to break you,
It's never going to make you fall.
No matter what I say, you turn your back way.
It's never going to break you
It's never going to make you fall.

Hooch

It's your last chance to find yourself in consequence.
It's so hard to find a simple reason.
Maybe I'll find myself with evidence.
Hate breeds with nothing believe in.

Another day another day in paradise.
If you only knew wouldn't it be nice.
Get away get away get away.
I'm about to detonate.

Everything to lose
Nothing to prove
Just when everything has fallen to the ground
Gonna knock it down
Just believe me when I tell you it's alright.

This time we're on our way to tragedy
Forever bored and ourside from the in crowd.
I've come to grip confronting my reality.
Numbstruck it's me against the world now.

For all you know for all you know it's not for real
Spare me the obsession that you deal.

Get away get away get away.
I'm about to detonate.
Everything to lose
Nothing to prove
Just when everything has fall to the ground
Gonna knock it down
Just believe me when I tell you it's alright.

Everything to lose
Nothing to prove
Just when everything has fall to the ground
Gonna knock it down
Just believe me when I tell you it's alright.

I should've know right from the start
That you'd take this trust and rip me apart.
Could be a change of heart.

I'll fall into you, but don't believe that this is real.

I'll fall into you, but don't believe that this is real.

I'll fall into you, but don't believe that this is real.

I'll fall into you, but don't believe that this is real

Nothing On My Back

Was happiness a fad?
Or was it in the lost in found again behind the issues.
It might not be so bad,
We're all addicted to our tragedy,
I guess it's what it had to be.

With nothing on my back,
It's still enough to bring me down.
My mind's about to crack,
Cause what I thought could not be found.
Matter of in fact,
It's harder still when you're around.
With nothing on my back,
I can't help but drown.

I might as well belong to both of you.
And the mess you always seem to drag me through.
That night forever always haunting me.
But I guess it is what it's supposed to be,
But spare your thoughts of sympathy.

With nothing on my back,
It's still enough to bring me down.
My mind's about to crack,
Cause what I thought could not be found.
Matter of in fact,
It's harder still when you're around.
With nothing on my back,
I can't help but drown.

With nothing on my back,
It's still enough to bring me down.

Cause what I thought could not be found.

It's still enough to bring me down.

Never Wake Up

Jump all you can
And you got out your right foot
The sooner you get out
In your hide away
I might be left dead
Side of the road
Serves a place and time

I plan on never waking up [2x]

Jump all you can
And you got out your right foot
The sooner you get out
In your hide away
I might be left dead
Get out the way
Serves a place and time

I plan on never waking up [4x]

Fat Lip

Storming through the party like my name was el nino
When I'm hangin out drinking in the back of an el camino
As a kid, I was a skid and no one knew me by name.
I trashed my own house party cause nobody came.

I know I'm not the one you thought you knew back in high school
Never going, ever showing up when we had to.
Is it attention that we crave don't tell us to behave,
I'm sick of always hearing act your age.

I don't want to waste my time
Become aother casualty of society.
I'll never fall in line
Become another victim of your conformity
And back down.

Because you don't
Know us at all we laugh when old people fall.
But what would you expect with a conscience so small.
Heavy metal and mullets it's how we were raised.
Maiden and priest were the gods that we praised

Cause we like having fun at other peoples expense and,
Cutting people down is just a minor offence then,
It's none of your concern, I guess I'll never learn.
I'm sick of being told to wait my turn.

I don't want to waste my time
Become another casualty of society.
I'll never fall in line
Become another victim of your conformity
And back down.

Don't count on me, to let you know when.
Don't count on me, I'll do it again.
Don't count on me, it's the point you're missing.
Don't count on me, cause I'm not listening.

Well I'm a no goodnick lower middle class brat,
Back packed and I don't give a shit about nothing.
You be standing on the corner talking all that kufuffin.
But you don't make sense from all the gas you be huffing.
Then if the egg don't stain you'll be ringing off the hook,
You're on the hit list wanted in the telephone book.
I like songs with distortion, to drink in proportion.
The doctor said my mom should have had an abortion.

I don't want to waste my time
Become another casualty of society.
I'll never fall in line
Become another victim of your conformity
And back down.
Waste my time with them
Casualty of society.
Waste my time again,
Victim of your conformity
And back down.

Rhythms

Mad in a way but I don't say,
It's what you're used to.
I got the words but can't convey.
I know you'll turn it all around,
Cause that's the rhythms that you go through
Get it back and you're not obliged to say,
Not intact but you're better off anyway.
Somehow it's never up to me.
What if I would say?
Simple words I can't relate.
I don't place upon your view,
It's the rhythms that you go through.

I know what I want,
You just take me through the motions.
I know what I want,
And that's more than you can say.

Since you found me out,
Since you found me out,
Since you found me out,
Since you found me out.

Your story still remains
It's so unlike still you stay the same,
And all the while you're counting on your day to come,
But nothing ever told you.
You would say that it's only for a day.
Yesterday's last week tomorrow's on it's way.
And I'm falling faster all the time.

What if I would say?
Simple words I can't relate.
What came easy is now too late.
And it was always standing right in front of me.

I know what I want,
You just take me through the motions.
I know what I want,
And that's more than you can say.

All the time you thought worth saving,
You still end up with memories fading.
After all that you wouldn't do,
It makes no sense, but it's that rhythms that you go through.

I know what I want,
You just take me through the motions.
I know what I want,
And that's more than you can say. I know what I want,
You just take me through the motions.
I know what I want,
And that's more than you can say.

Since you found me out,
Since you found me out,
Since you found me out,
Since you found me out.

Motivation

What's the difference of never knowing at all?
When every step I take is always too small.
Maybe it's just something I can't admit but lately,
I feel like I don't give a shit.

Motivation such an aggravation,
Accusations don't know how to take them.
Inspiration's getting hard to fake it.
Concentration's never hard to brake it.
Situation never what you want it to be.

What's the point of never making mistakes?
Self-indulgence is such a hard habit to brake.
It's all just a waste of time in the end.
I don't care so why should I even pretend.

Motivation such an aggravation,
Accusations don't know how to take them.
Inspiration's getting hard to fake it.
Concentration's never hard to brake it.
Situation never what you want it.

Nothing's new, everything's the same.
It keeps on dragging me down, it's getting kind of lame.
I'm falling further behind, there's nothing to explain.
No matter what you say nothing 's gonna change my mind.

Can't pretend on doubt until the end.
It seems like leaving friends has become
This years trend and though I can't pretend.
It's not the same but who's to blame,
For all those stupid things I never said.

Motivation such an aggravation,
Accusations don't know how to take them.
Inspiration's getting hard to fake it.
Concentration's never hard to brake it.
Situation never what you want it to be.

Motivation such an aggravation,
Accusations don't know how to take them.
Inspiration's getting hard to fake it.
Concentration's never hard to brake it.
Situation never what you want it to be.

Never what you want it to be.
Never what you want it to be.

In Too Deep

The faster we're falling,
We're stopping and stalling.
We're running in circles again
Just as things we're looking up
You said it wasn't good enough.
But still we're trying one more time.

Maybe we're just trying to hard.
When really it's closer than it is too far

Cause I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep,
Up above in my head, instead of going under.
Cause I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep,
Up above in my head, instead of going under.
Instead of going under.

Seems like each time
I'm with you I loose my mind,
Because I'm bending over backwards to relate.
It's one thing to complain
But when you're driving me insane
Well then I think it's time that we took a break.

Maybe we're just trying to hard.
When really it's closer than it is too far

Cause I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep,
Up above in my head, instead of going under.
Cause I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep,
Up above in my head, instead of going under.
Instead of going under.
Instead of going under.

I can't sit back and wonder why.
It took so long for this to die.
And I hate it when you fake it.
You can't hide it you might as well embrace it.
So believe me it's not easy.
It seems that something's telling me,

Cause I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep,
Up above in my head, instead of going under.
Cause I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep,
Up above in my head, instead of going under.
Instead of going under.
Instead of going under.

Instead of going under again.
Instead of going under.
Instead of going under again.
Instead of going under again.

Summer

It's far beyond your reach, it holds a place in time,
Somewhere ahead is the back of the line.
I can't relate to your mistakes, awkwardly speaking with nothing to say.

Caught up in your life, excuses are so lame,
You may be different but I'm still the same.
The reasons that you thought, the intention that you caught,
You say things are simple we both know they're not.
You can't let it go,

Whoa.

You can't but I know.

Whoa, whoa you don't even know.

[chorus]

It's not in what you do, more in what you say.

A million questions asked, the remnants of the past.
You've always been denied, but always by your side.
I've always tried to, to understand you,
The worlds not learning from you.

Whoa. whoa.

[chorus]

Handle This

You said it once before, you don't do those things you used to anymore.
You say in doubt, were fading out, forgetting who we used to be.

Cause I will bring you down,
I don't want to miss, I don't think you can handle this.
You've lost what you can't find; it's never what you had in mind.

You take it with a smile; it's so easy when you're always in denial
Just in time but out of line I can't make all the same mistakes you want me to.

Cause I will bring you down,
I don't want to miss, I don't think you can handle this.
You've lost what you can't find; it's never what you had in mind.

Your giving up you know it's not what you need.
And it's true what you're going through.
Try so hard not listen to everything I never say.

Cause I will bring you down,
I don't want to miss, I don't think you can handle this.
You've lost what you can't find; it's never what you had in mind.

I'm getting over getting used to,
And after all that I put you through now I see I'm not the only one.

I never thought it'd ever come to,
This in fact was never what you wanted from me or how you meant it to be.

Crazy Amanda

Don't know what you really got
It's hard to stay and not pretend
Can't make sense to what you got
Seems I can't comprehend
Well I'm happy to be, only all that you see
And I'm not one to learn to be the same

I dn't want to hear you bitch no more
I was better off a year before
No matter how I try I can't ignore
But everytime I think my brain gets sore
When I'm with you

What's so hard about good-byes
Im sorry I'm just not as keen
Im planning out a perfect life
When I'm only 19
Cause I'm happy to be only all that you see
And I'm not one to learn to be the same

I don't want to try to just be freinds
Nothin's gonna change my mind again
If ever I had toughts they would be dead
I can't even think inside my head
When I'm with you

I'm on my way, can't you see that's the truth
So long, I can't stay, can't you see that's the truth
I'm on my way, can't you see that's the truth
So long, I can't stay, can't you see that's the truth
See that's the, see that's the...

Last that I can take
Because it's getting really hard to fake
It's not like it's my problem that your late
Why can't you just spare the lies I hate
When I'm with you

All She's Got

This place reminds me of,
A time that's way too old.
These thoughts have gathered up the memories unfold.
But for now I don't see what's so wrong with pretending
It's true I thought you knew.

Believe her, it's all she's got to pass the time
Believe her, it's over now she's passed her prime.
Believe her, it's all she's got to keep things right
Believe her it's all she's got it's all she's got.
It's all she's got, it's all she's got.

These days keep getting worse I'm wasting all my time.
I thought I'd come in first, instead I fell behind.
I don't know, I don't know if I can keep this up to long.
It seems most every time my motives are all wrong
But for now I don't see what's so wrong with pretending
It's true I thought you knew.

Believe her, it's all she's got to pass the time
Believe her, it's over now she's passed her prime.
Believe her, it's all she's got to keep things right
Believe her it's all she's got it's all she's got.

It's times like this, but time's run out
It's times like this, but time's run out
It's times like this, but time's run out
It's times like this, I want to,

Believe her, it's all she's got to pass the time
Believe her, it's over now she's passed her prime.
Believe her, it's all she's got to keep things right
Believe her it's all she's got it's all she's got.

Heart Attack

Remember when there was nothing else to do, but lie and bed and,
Wonder how it was always up to you, and no one else and,
Early mornings, made by warnings, what's the point of the alarm that I'm ignoring?
It's either raining, I'm not complaining, but waking up is hard to do so,

[chorus]

Turn my head it's back to bed with no delay, can't be bothered by the phone ten times a day,
Why get up my morning doesn't even start till two?
Forget reality waking up is hard to do.

Remember when we would hang out every day, and we would rather,
Not be told what to do or what to say, cause nothing mattered.
Never boring with slept in mornings, not ashamed of bad habits that I'm forming.
Its not important if days are shortened, I can't make time when nothings new,
Cause waking up is hard to do so,

[chorus]

What's a day when it all ends up the same, and lasts forever?
Can't complain when there's nothing there to blame, and things can't be better.
Summer evenings, teenage grievings, got no problem with the life that I've been leading.
No concentration on hesitation, I can't make time when nothings new, cause waking up is hard to do so!

[chorus]

Pain For Pleasure

The seas have parted,
The endings started,
The sky has turned to black.
A killing spree through eternity,
The devil stabs you in the back,
It's midnight now you must escape somehow,
Torture is his leisure,
Don't try to hide he'll make you subside,
As he exchanges pain for pleasure,

[chorus]
Pain for pleasure, he's the hunter you're the game,
Pain for pleasure, satan is his name!

Half Hour Of Power [2000]

Machine Gun

Well I'm up and I don't know why,
But I guess that's all that counts.
Looking 'round as I'm holding my head,
And I'm in somebody's house.

The sun it hits me like a punch in the face
With a headache I can't ignore.
Seems almost every weekend my bed is someone's floor.

I can't keep this up.
I have had enough.

Eating cold pizza on the side of the curb
To cover up my morning breath of gin.
Something doesn't seem to sit with me right
It' going out the way it went in.
I can't keep this up.
I have had enough.

You can count me out, I'm on to you.
You can count me out, I'm tired of
Leaving my embarrassments behind.

What I Believe

Lies and deceiving is what I'm believing
Up to my knees so hared to breathe
It helps that you aren't there
Can't figure out what's the right thing for me
Guess I'll have to wait and see

So understanding but so far from the truth
It's what I have to live with
It's not all I wanted to be
It's not all I wanted to see
I can't keep on leading
I've left what I'm leaving
Guess that's just what I believe

Consciously taking and overly faking
I can't believe all the things that you're saying
Seems all so simple it's all up to you
Time after time
You lost what you couldn't find

It's what you could
It's only what you could
Don't take not what you could
But I know what's up

T.H.T.

You don't have the answers but you're always blaming me.
It only lies in your behalf in animosity.
You decide it's up to you, make it what you'll be.
After all you seem to be it makes no sense to me.

Don't point your finger at me
It's all your destiny
You believe its all a game so quick to point the blame
And now tables have turned.

Makes No Difference

You're running fast and missing but cannot help
Convincing.
The reasons you gave me are all wearing thin.
It's not meant to hurt you but let me assure,
It's not what I said but intentions you've read.

So when you hold onto the past then you
Will break down what little is left.
(and yah)
There's nothing more you can't ignore,
And say it makes no difference to me.

Now that you're older life's weighing on your
Shoulders.
You can't seem to keep things so perfectly straight.
With most things so basic you might as well face it.
You can't help but worry it's all just begun

So when you hold onto the past then you,
Will break down what little is left.
(and yah)
There's nothing more you can't ignore,
And say it makes no difference to me.

It makes no difference to me
It makes no difference to me
It makes no difference to me
It makes no difference

So when you hold onto the past then you,
Will break down what little is left.
(and yah)
There's nothing more you can't ignore,
And say it makes no difference to me.

It makes no difference
It makes no difference to me
It makes no difference
It makes no difference to me

Summer

Second Chance for Max Headroom

It's not enough you passed it for a while,
You can't afford the amass of denial.
Don't explain, you can't arcane it too.
Your lies surpassed your doubt.

Don't do something you'll regret

It's not enough you passed it for a while,
The time you take,
Your minds mistake,
Time worth throwing all away.

It's not enough attention,
Though you're too proud to mention,
I can't go on pretending,
That it's still the same

Dave's Possessed Hair/It's What We're All About

Ever get the feeling no one's got your back
Caught up in themselves livin' lies besides the fact
Somehow you're going on an opposite track
As we recover from another social heart attack

You think you see between the lines
But you can't see through dollar signs

So sick and tasteless now
Immature and faceless how
Can I even sleep at night you ask
You say you're a pacifist
Instead you wave your fist
And all the while it becomes the end again

Make up your mind cause I can't decide
You think uniqueulism makes you dignified
You can't see with half opened eyes
You think you're standing up instead you're falling far behind

What I do is what I choose which makes it my decision
If your life was a book your story would be fiction

Another Time Around

In my years, I've seen all sounds of misconception.
In my years, I've done all I can live to question.

What happened to me I don't understand.
I've seen all I can see as my time expands.

Bored I am, bored of my own desperation,
I can't defend, can't find my own destination.

What happened to me I don't understand.
I've seen all I can see as my time expands.

So what's up with you, what's up with me.

I'm not the one I can't pretend,
What would I be if I did it all again.

And I sometimes wish I would have asked some
Questions.
Then maybe I would have a clearer life perception.

What's up with you, what's up with me.
