1st Person
Why - is everything so grey - is everything so strange
Is everything so thrown together by mistake?
Why - is everything contrite- is everything a plight
Is everything so insincere and out of sight?
WHY - DOES EVERYTHING SEEM WRONG
DOES EVERYTHING LOOK DEAWN
DOES EVERYTHING SEEM BLASTED LIKE IT DOESN'Y BELONG?
I wanna make it a way - I wanna make it a waste
I wanna make it a gross misadventure
I WANNA MAKE YOU ALL!
I WANNA MAKE YOU ALL!
I WANNA MAKE YOU... lie to me... lie to me...
When - did everything go bad - did everything fall flat
Did everything decay and lose itself so fast?
When - did everything succumb - did everything go numb
Did everything lobotomize what it's become?
WHEN - DOES EVERYTHING COME BACK
DOES EVERYTHING RELAPSE
DOES EVERYTHING SAVE FACE AND FIND ITSELF AT LAST?
I wanna show you the way - I wanna show you the waste
I wanna show you the worst misadventure
I WANNA SHOW YOU ALL!
I WANNA SHOW YOU ALL!
I WANNA SHOOW YOU HOW TO... die for me... die for me...
I wanna give it a way - i wanna give it the waste
I wanna give it the worst misadventure
I WANNA GIVE IT ALL!
I'M GANNA GIVE IT ALL!
I'LL NEVER GIVE UP!
Lie to me... die for me...
Now - everything's a lie - everything's your lie
Everything's a face inside another lie
Now - everything's a side - everything's one side
Everything depends on just which side you're on...
30/30-150
I am a dominant gene - Live as I die
Never say forever cause forever's a lie
I can see right through it so I can't ignore you
The story changes but the ending will bore you
I tried to tell you but you simply obeyed
They didn't listen so they threw you away
Now all you do is talk - I don't wanna hear your bullshit
Is this what you want?!
This is where it begins
This is where it ends
This is where it begins
And this is where it ends
They called us a dead generation, they told us that we wouldn't survive
They left us alone in the maelstrom
As you can see we're all plenty alive
We know where you are and were coming
Lets see you say that shit to our face
30/30-150 Remembers 30/30-150 HATES
In my own peculiar way I feel mercurial
Before I get ahead of myself again
I know the where but I still don't know the when
You wanna live in a one sided world
Be prepared for a whole world of hurt
Now with the grand facade
I dont want to be an angel
I just want to be GOD
They called us a dead generation, they told us that we wouldn't survive
They left us alone in the maelstrom
As you can see we're all plenty alive
We know where you are and were coming
Lets see you say that shit to our face
30/30-150 Remembers 30/30-150 HATES (HATES)
OHHHHHHHH
I am a fucking machine fueled by the past
Memory's a memory until it's a fact
I can bury the hatchet and let some shit go
But I got too many grudges to hold!
Saw a lot of people die in the end
I never want to walk that road again
Now I will never give up
I don't want to have it all, I JUST WANT TO HAVE ENOUGH
This is where it begins
This is where it ends
This is where it begins
And this is where it ends
They called us a dead generation, they told us that we wouldn't survive
They left us alone in the maelstrom
As you can see we're all plenty alive
We know where you are and were coming
Lets see you say that shit to our face
Cardiff
This fluid feels like pain
This stoic mood is all in vain
I reach into the dark
I tear the sun and me apart
How many years ago
How many deaths I can't let go
My flesh is temporary, my God extrodinary
you.. can't.. kill.. MY... MIND
a man delivered can never make his way in darkness I know tonight will end but I won't give this life
away again
Sifting through the seen debris
Oh my father call to me
This smoke is in my blood
This ? is just no good
Save me from my bitterness
Give me up I did my best
Chalk this system full of shit
Lock this fucker ?
you.. can't.. kill.. MY MIND
a man delivered can never make his way in darkness I know tonight will end but I won't give this life
away i won't give this life away
a man surrendered can never find his own forgiveness i know my life will end but i won't give tonight
away.. i won't give tonight away!
Oh yeahh!
Come What(ever) May
Can you take away every single day?
That we have given to another false prophet
Can you give us all a reason not to fall?
Before you take away another broken promise
Show your pretty face
Hide the bitter taste
You're still the rapist of an entire nation
You wanna be the man you gotta be a man
But you were nothing but a sad insinuation
(Oooooh)
How can we ever live this down?
(Oooooh)
How can we ever live this down?
Keep your fingers crossed
The truth is at a lost
Big decision for an ordinary coward
The only problem is your fucking rhetoric
We're more in danger then before you took power
Now it's just a game
God you'll never change
You'd sell us out if you could only find a buyer
You don't give a shit
As long as idiots
Are in your corner you could set us all on fire
(Oooooh)
How can we ever live this down?
(Oooooh)
How can we ever live this down?
You never wanted to be
They only wanted a parody
You want the world to be free
But what the hell is free about it?!
Now we reached the end
Just get it over with
But this is building to an adament conclusion
Come what ever may
There's gonna be a day
When we have figured out a possible solution
Every thing you've done
Is killing everyone
A little smile on a homicidal bastard
You wanna be a man
You gotta have a plan
Another failure is a guarenteed disaster
(Oooooh)
How can we ever live this down?
(Oooooh)
How can we ever live this down?
You never wanted to be
They only wanted a parody
You want the world to be free
She only wanted the world
You never wanted me
They only wanted a parody
You want the world to be free
But what the fuck is free about it?!
What the fuck is free about it?!
What the fuck is free about it?!

My face is horrid and I?m constantly slouching
My place is lower and I?m constantly crouching
I don?t believe it ? I saw the man again
And he won?t hear a word I say
I have delusions so I?m constantly shouting
I have compulsions so I?m constantly counting
I don?t believe it ? there goes my world again
And I don?t understand a word I say
Just because I?m paranoid it doesn?t mean I?m annoyed and
Just because I?m not prepared doesn?t mean I?m not aware
The smoke is infinite - I?m constantly panting
The truth is imminent ? I?m constantly shouting
I don?t believe it ? I took a chance again and
People I don?t know won?t let it go
I?ve got some problems ? I?m constantly bitching
I?ve got some rashes I?m constantly itching
I don?t believe it ? forgot the pills again
I just woke up a million miles from home
Just because I seem sedate it doesn?t mean I?m not irate and
Just because I?m not immune it doesn?t mean I?m not scared of you
Just because I?m incomplete it doesn?t mean I?m obsolete and
Just because I?m out of view doesn?t mean I?m not like you

Got a pit in so tight ? wish I never had a blast that night,
I can hear?em though the walls for me
Try to rub but they always find me
All in all, this is all I can take ? when I fell it was my first mistake, but
Broken-hearted musta wilted, cuz everything?s all tilted
I keep a little place in the back of my mind
I take a little trip when they use up my line
But as soon as I can, I?ll find another reason again
Hang around like a head on a leash ? keep it all just a little out of arms reach
I can hear?em through the walls for me
Now I know why I can?t go in ? all the blurs have a different set of keys again, but
Broken-hearted musta wilted coz everything?s all tiled
I keep a little place in the back of my mind
I take a little trip when they use up my line
But as soon as I can, I?ll find another reason again
Oh yeah, keep a little place in the back of my mind
Take a little trip when they use up my line
But as soon as I can, I?ll find another reason again
Oh you don?t wanna hurt me

I?m the one with the skeleton face ? I?m the one with the full nine disgrace
I can hear?em through the walls for me
Try to run but they always find me
I never wanted it to end this way ? I wish I had a little more to say, but
Broken-hearted musta wilted cuz everything?s all tiled?
I keep a little place in the back of my mind
I take a little trip when they use up my line
But as soon as I can, I?ll find another reason again
Oh yeah, keep a little place in the back of my mind
Take a little trip when they use up my line
But as soon as I can, I?ll find another reason again
Oh you don?t wanna hurt me
You Don?t Wanna Hurt Me
YOU DON?T WANNA HURT ME ANYMORE
Bring it on, one more time?
Take it away, oh take it away?again?

Made Of Scars
This one came from looking
This one opened twice
These two seem as smooth as silk, flush againt my eyes
This one needed stiches and
This one came from rings
This one isn't even there, but I feel it more because you don't care
Yeah, Cut right into me
Yeah, Cause I am Made Of Scars
Yes I am made of scars
This one had it comming
This one found a vein
This one was an accident, but never gave me pain
This one was my fathers and
This one you can't see
This one had me scared to death,
But I guess I should be glad I'm not dead!!
Yeah, Cut right into me
Yeah, I am made of scars
Yes, I am made of scars
God, Don't you believe it
And I will find a way
Everything you are I will betray
Oooh, I swear that I will find a way
Everything you are's inside me
This one was the first one
This one had a vice
This one here I like to rub on dark and stormy nights
This one was the last one,
I don't remember how
But I remember blood and rain
AND I NEVER SAW IT COMING AGAIN
Yeah, Cut right into me
Yeah, Cause I am made of scars
Yes, I am made of scars
That's what I'm made of!!!
Reborn
I am walking through your streets
I am looking in your windows
I am elemental now
You'll never even know I'm there
I am watching over you
I am living in the shadows
I am just a word to you, but I am very real and cold
Cold to all of this
Cold to how you feel
Cold to all your loose reason
I am everything
I am anything
I am automatic
I am yesterday
I am everyday
I am gonna be...
Yeah
I am all there is to know
I am all that you've forgotten
I am enigmatic now
You never even knew my name
I am dressed in tragedy
I am by design immortal
I am just the last one left but I am always here and old
Old and very strong
Old as all you feel
Old as all the world around you
Yeah
I am everything
I am anything
I am automatic
I am yesterday
I am everyday
I am gonna be...Reborn
(This is the start of something)
Sillyworld
Freedom's just a word today
Freedom's just a word
When someone takes your word away it's seldom ever heard
So take a sentence full of things you're not supposed to say
Carry on, but don't write it down or you'll be gone
Love is just a song today
Love is just a song
When someone takes the song away
you seldom sing along
So take those lyrics serious and sing your life away
Carry on, but don't write 'em down or they'll be gone
All we ever do is talk
We like to ride but we never walk
We make it so damn easy
We get bored
Why can't anybody see what's good for you is good for me
I can't take your sillyworld
I can't take your sillyworld no more
Peace is just two fingers now
Peace was just a phase
When someone put it on a shirt
you knew to count the days
So take those fingers tape 'em up and shove 'em up your ass and carry on
but don't try it now cause peace is gone
All we ever do is talk
We like to ride but we never walk
We make it so damn easy
We get bored
Why can't anybody see what's good for you is bad for me
I can't take your sillyworld
I can't take your sillyworld no more
We fight our instincts
We go to extremes
We fight our instincts
We go to extremes
We fought a lot [x13]
Socio
I remember now, but I still have my doubts
I think it's gonna be today
Everybody came, but it's just not the same
Why did it have to be today?
Now my chest is tight - no, I am not all right
It doesn't have to be this way
Why does it have to be this way?
I DONT KNOW WHAT'S WRONG,
IT'S LIKE I'M TO FAR GONE
IT DOESN'T MATTER, ANYWAY
FEAR IS IN MY HEART - JUST WHEN I STOP IT STARTS
AND I CAN NEVER LIVE THIS WAY
Freedom in a cage - no sun and too much rage
I don't know how much i can take
Push it down inside,but it knows just where to hide
I know that "normal" is hard to fake
BLeeding into life - it's like a thousand knives
Are slowly turning me into this
Why does it have to be like this?
I DONT KNOW WHAT'S WRONG,
IT'S LIKE I'M TO FAR GONE
IT DOESN'T MATTER, ANYWAY
FEAR IS IN MY HEART - JUST WHEN I STOP IT STARTS
AND I CAN NEVER LIVE THIS WAY [x2]
I lost again, today...
I DONT KNOW WHAT'S WRONG,
IT'S LIKE I'M TO FAR GONE
IT DOESN'T MATTER, ANYWAY
FEAR IS IN MY HEART - JUST WHEN I STOP IT STARTS
AND I CAN NEVER LIVE THIS WAY
LIVING WITH A CURSE, SOMETIMES IT'S EVEN WORSE
IT SLOWLY KILLS ME EVERYDAY
SOMETHING I DESPISE IS GONNA TAKE MY LIFE
I GUESS I'LL TRY AGAIN TODAY
Suffer
[Special Edition Bonus Track]
You won?t admit it, but it?s true ? I?m happy without you
I turned away and let your drama pull you in
You always said I was a fool, but something carried through
I never wanna see your face again
So many problems left behind? I?m sorting out my mind
This Idiot has turned into a better man
I found my soul in someone else, who doesn?t feel like hell
Who doesn?t wanna make me kill myself
No! No! I have every right to hate you
No! No! I have every right to hate you
I was leaving, stop believing, then I end up right back in your arms
Now I?m bleeding, fucking seething ? I was through with you long time ago
Some people suffer for no reason, but they?re the ones to blame
So walk away, let it go and save yourself
Before you tell yourself a lie, just tell that one goodbye
How much more can you take before you fucking die?
No! No! I have every right to hate you
No! No! I have every right to hate you
I was leaving, stop believing, then I end up right back in your arms
Now I?m bleeding, fucking seething ? I was through with you a long time ago
[Solo ? Jim]
No! No! I have every right to hate you
No! No! I have every right to hate you
I was leaving, stop believing, then I end up right back in your arms
Now I?m bleeding, fucking seething ? I was through with you a long time ago
Suffer?[x4]
The Day I Let Go
[Special Edition Bonus Track]
What a waste of life this is, every altercation I permit is
Like a quiet sigh
From a man resigned to a place that was never his
And the hours are long, even in a world where I belong
Every second stays, every minute counts against my sentence
I Fall?I had to let you go?
What I tried to accomplish died ? every offer of faith I had
To fight and a dream unfolds
The moon is cold because the sun left early
And the days go by, even when my conscience just won?t try
Every week decays, every month is rotten -
I AM FORGOTTEN
I fall? I had to let you go
I fall?my mind is all I know
I fall? the table turns to dust
I fall? today, I let go of my trust
What a waste of time I am, every ounce of life is
Just dead flesh
I can?t forget, but then again you can?t let me remember
When I try to speak, every word I say comes out so bleak
I don?t want this, I don?t want you
But I DON?T WANT ANYONE
I don?t want anyone?
I fall? I had to let you go
I fall?my mind is all I know
I fall? the table turns to dust
I fall? today, I let go of my trust
I let go of my trust
The Frozen
[Special Edition Bonus Track]
The girls on the streets look all sad in this gold encrusted little town
Why is that? Isn?t this the town of dreams?
Yeah, but it comes with a price
It?s a town that never does anything and takes all the credit
A place that promises so much and never has a thing to say
Or a care in the world
There is no memory here
No dream for itself but the dreams of others
And all over the world you talk about a place you?ve only seen in the re-runs
Immortalized by its vice and deified for its carnage
There?s money in the air there
All you have to do is reach up and grab it.
In basements, garages, parking lots, empty lots, school yards, town cars,
Back rooms and more?
Diamonds are fashioned from expectations and fortified on a steady diet,
Of simple lives and red carpets
The ejaculating zeitgeist in night vision
Culture is a punch line in a motionless blood in the water
The sharks here play games you can?t fathom
But you flock here anyway
On college money and credit cards
Spend a week bullshitting yourself that it was all true,
All of it?
Just to watch in horror as it all falls into pieces into the gravity of reality
The starry eyes fade as it dawns on you,
Nothing is guaranteed
You are a part of the great divide, the chosen, or the frozen
Now your miles away without an egg,
Your college money is a collage of debt
And your credit cards are all snapped in fucking half.
Time to wander a landscape in berethed of mercy
This is now the back lot of your failed movie
A waking dream re-written without your permission
The real luster, the soft focus, the soap opera vision
Is just the hindsight of a world who?s just been lied to
Of sad surfs, and untouchable lords
You took a chance didn?t you?
The chance didn?t have a par for you this time around
Maybe next life.
And you can?t even walk home
The girls on the street all look sad in this cardboard cut-out little town
No wonder, that?s the only thing here that?s real
The gold is for fools and paradise is lost
But the hungry have never bothered with the cost
Day by day they fall away like rose petals
Like ink that won?t dry or fade
It just runs wild down cracks and crevices, grooves and folds
So I hope someone saves you, before you get cold
I really do.
Because the girls are on set in this little black book
If you don?t believe me take a closer look.
If you can..?
Through Glass
I'm looking at you through the glass...
Don't know how much time has passed
Oh god it feels like forever
But no one ever tells you that forever
Feels like home sitting all alone inside your head
How do you feel? That is the question
But i forget.. you dont expect and easy answer
When something like a soul becomes
Initialized and folded up like paper dolls and little notes
You cant expect a bit of hope
And while your outside looking in
Describing what you see
Remember what your staring at is me
Cause I'm looking at you through the glass...
Don't know how much time has passed
All i know is that it feels like forever
When no one ever tells you that forever
Feels like home, sitting all alone inside your head
How much is real? So much to question
And never dare make up the mannequins
Contaminating everything
When thought came from the heart
It never did right from the start
Just listen to the noises
(No more sad voices)
Before you tell yourself
Its just a different scene
Remember its just different from what you've seen
Im looking at you through the glass...
Don't know how much time has passed
And all i know is that it feels like forever
When no one ever tells you that forever
Feels like home, sitting all alone inside your head
And its the starrrssss
The sttarrrsss
That shine for you
And its the starrrssss
The sttarrrsss
That lie to you.. yeah-ah
I'm looking at you through the glass...
Don't know how much time has passed
Oh god it feels like forever
But no one ever tells you that forever
Feels like home, sitting all alone inside your head
Cause I'm looking at you through the glass...
Don't know how much time has passed
All i know is that it feels like forever
But no one ever tells you that forever
feels like home, sitting all alone inside your heaaaaddd
And its the starrrssss
The sttarrrsss
That shine for you.. yeah-ah
And its the starrrssss
The sttarrrsss
That lie to you.. yeah-ah
And its the starrrssss
The sttarrrsss
That shine for you.. yeah-ah
And its the starrrssss
The sttarrrsss
That lie to you.. yeah-ah yeah
Ohhhoh the starrs
Ohhh oh the starrrrs that liieee
Wicked Game
[Special Edition Bonus Track]
[Chris Isaak Cover]
The world was on fire and no one could save me but you.
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do.
I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you.
And I never dreamed that I knew somebody like you.
No, I don't want to fall in love.
No, I don't want to fall in love.
With you. With you.
What a wicked game to play, to make me feel this way.
What a wicked thing to do, to let me dream of you.
What a wicked thing to say, you never felt that way.
What a wicked thing to do, to make me dream of you and,
No, I don't want to fall in love.
No, I don't want to fall in love.
With you. With you.
The world was on fire and no one could save me but you.
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do.
I never dreamed that I'd need somebody like you.
And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you no,
No, I don't want to fall in love.
No, I don't want to fall in love.
No I?
No I?
Nobody loves no one.
Your God
Reveal to me this ugly thing
I must've meddled by your head
It's getting out of hand again
Nobody sees it, but I can
You thought of everything, I bet
But did you think that I might die?
I haven't really smiled, and I don't know how long you know
Something's going to give again, somethings going to give again
I try to fight, but did you listen?
Even though you're gone, I'm never finished
I can never be your God
And I don't even think I want the job, anymore.
Say something, anything to me.
I did believe, but I have doubts
So many reasons to hold on
Conflicting interest is not it
I guess I'm better off in the end
Coz you were always there to blame
I havent' felt so bad, and I don't know how long you know
I can't get away again, I can't get away again..
I try to fight, but did you listen?
Even though you're gone, I'm never finished
I can never be your God
And I don't even think I want the job, anymore. [x2]
What am I supposed to now?
How am I supposed to live now?
All I ever did was try, but the story ends
So I guess I'ma have to die
Where am I supposed to go now?
Go ahead, and go away [x4]
Go away.
What am I supposed to now?
How am I supposed to live now?
All I ever did was try, but the story ends
So I guess I'ma have to die
What am I supposed to now?
How am I supposed to live now?
What am I supposed to Now?
How am I supposed to live Now?
How am I supposed to live?
