01. Gave Up

Perfect little dream the kind that hurts the most
forgot how it feels well almost
no one to blame always the same
open my eyes wake up in flames

It took you to make me realize?
it took you to make me see the light

Smashed up my sanity
smashed up my integrity
smashed up what I believed in
smashed up what's left of me
smashed up my everything
smashed up all that was true

Gonna smash myself to pieces
I don't know what else to do
covered in hope and vaseline
still cannot fix this broken machine
watching the hole it used to be mine
just watching it burn in my steady systematic decline
of the trust I will betray
give it to me I throw it away
after everything i've done I hate myself for what i've become
I tried
I gave up
throw it away

02. Wish

This is the first day of my last days
I built it up now I take it apart
climbed up real high now fall down real far
no need for me to stay
the last thing left I just threw it away
I put my faith in god and my trust in you
now there's nothing more fucked up I could do

Wish there was something real wish there was something true
wish there was something real in this world full of you

I'm the one without a soul i'm the one with this big fucking hole
no new tale to tell twenty-six years on my way to hell
gotta listen to your big time hard line bad luck fist fuck
don't think you're having all the fun
you know me I hate everyone

Wish there was something real wish there was something true
wish there was something real in this world full of you

I want to but I can't turn back
but I want to

03. Happiness In Slavery

Slave screams he thinks he knows what he wants
Slave screams thinks he has something to say
Slave screams he hears but doesn't want to listen
Slave screams he's being beat into submission
Don't open your eyes you won't like what you see
The devils of truth steal the souls of the free
Don't open your eyes take it from me
I have found
You can find
Happiness is slavery
Slave screams he spends his life learning conformity
Slave screams he claims he has his own identity
Slave screams he's going to cause the system to fall
Slave screams but he's glad to be chained to that wall
Don't open your eyes you won't like what you see
The blind have been blessed with security
Don't open your eyes take it from me
I have found
You can find
Happiness is slavery
I don't know what i am i don't know where i've been
Human junk just words and so much skin
Stick my hands thru the cage of this endless routine
Just some flesh caught in this big broken machine

04. Throw This Away

I want you to take me
I want you to take me
I want you to break me
and I want you throw me away

05. Fist Fuck

Drift within
this is your body
can you control
the fire blood
through each tissued corridor drown
into the pulse of life
[can't drown into the pulse of life]

Let your heart pump you
out old red tongue
[can you drink the blood?
can you drink the blood?
tell us what's the red tongue]
a stream
into it's own chamber
[can you let your heart become central]

Help help
I'm drowning
into the lake help help I'm drowning
get me out of here

Drift to the center
drift to the center

I'm drowning
I need some help

The center of this heart fire will go up
let your heart beat your whole life
[alleviate] [screw] [penatrate] [you ll go deeper]
burst
[burst]
greet on
[greet on]
complete death
[communicate]

My blood life
blood
startling

Oh you just wish I could feel that way too
I'll bet you will someday

Help help
I'm drowning
get me out of here
