01. Sick Of Life

Music & lyrics by Godsmack
Paralyzed
Nothing's getting
Through to me
Hypnotized
From all my
Surroundings

I wanna be
Something I
Could never be
I wanna say
Things that I
Could never say

Yeah
I'm gonna do it again
I'm gonna do it again
I'm gonna do it again

Sick of my life
I'm tired of everything
In my life

Dragged down
Rubbing my face
In the ground
No time
For the undecided

I wanna know
Why I've always felt unknown
I wanna love
Why am I untouchable?

Yeah
I'm gonna do it again
I'm gonna do it again
I'm gonna do it again

Sick of my life
I'm tired of everything
In my life

I never wanted
To be sick
Of my life
I'm tired of everything
In my life

Sick of my life
I'm tired of everything
In my life

I never wanted
To be sick
Of my life
I'm tired of everything
In my life
Yeah!!!

02. Awake

Music & lyrics by Godsmack
Yeah!!!

Wait another minute
Can't you see what this pain
Has fucking done to me

I'm alive and still kicking
What you see I can't see
And maybe
You'll think before you speak

I'm alive For you
I'm awake Because of you
I'm alive I told you
I'm awake Swallowing you

Take another second
Turn your back on me
And make believe
That you're always happy

It's safe to say you're never alive
A big part of you has died
And by the way
I hope you're satisfied

I'm alive For you
I'm awake Because of you
I'm alive I told you
I'm awake Swallowing you

I'm alive For you
I'm awake Because of you
I'm alive I told you
I'm awake

Turn your back unvailing me
I'm taking a step back so I can breathe
Hear the silence about to break
Fear resistance when I'm awake

Turn your back unvailing me
I'm taking a step back so I can breathe
Hear the silence about to break
Fear resistance when I'm awake

I'm alive For you
I'm awake Because of you
I'm alive I told you
I'm awake Swallowing you

I'm alive For you
I'm awake Because of you
I'm alive I told you
I'm awake Swallowing you

03. Greed

Music & lyrics by Godsmack
Two faced!
I feel you crawling under my skin
Sickened by your face
By the way, to think that you're so fucking kind?
You ain't!

Hard to find how I feel, especially when you're smothering me
Hard to find how I feel, please someone help me!

I knew when an angel whispered into my ear,
You gotta get him away, yeah
Hey little bitch!
Be glad you finally walked away or you may have not lived another day.

Hard to find how I feel, especially when you're smothering me
Hard to find how I feel, please someone help me
Hard to find how I feel, controlling me every step of the way
Hard to find how I feel, you greedy little baby

Hard to find, hard to find, hard to find
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

Hard to find how I feel, especially when you're smothering me
Hard to find how I feel, please someone help me
Hard to find how I feel, controlling me every step of the way
Hard to find how I feel, you greedy little baby.

04. Bad Magick

Music & lyrics by Godsmack
Does it feel so bad when you're taking a drag
And when you're looking at the world through tired eyes?
When you stare at it dead and you're giving it head
And all those things you say you love never come alive

If it feels so bad
Bad magick playing off of me
It feels so bad
Oh no, I don't wanna be your friend
It feels so bad
Bad magick laying into me
It feels so bad
Oh no, I don't wanna hear it again

When you get so high that you're wanting to
Die but everything around you is turning green
When you get so low and I know you've been
Feeling like a dried out leaf in a summer breeze
I don't like it!

If it feels so bad
Bad magick playing off of me
It feels so bad
Oh no, I don't wanna be your friend
It feels so bad
Bad magick laying into me
It feels so bad
Oh no, I don't wanna hear it again

I'm getting back, get back on track, get off of my back
I'm getting back, get back on track, get off of my back
Yeah (x3)

I'm getting back, get back on track, get off of my back
I'm getting back, get back on track, get off of my back
Yeah, yeah

I'm getting back, get back on track, get off of my back
I'm getting back, get back on track, get off of my back
Yeah

I'm getting back, get back on track, get off of my back
I'm getting back, get back on track, get off of my back bitch

Back, back, get back on track and get off of my back
I'm getting back, get back on track, get off of my back
Yeah
I'm getting back, get back on track, get off of my back

If it feels so bad
Bad magick playing off of me
It feels so bad
Oh no, I don't wanna be your friend
It feels so bad
Bad magick laying into me
It feels so bad
Oh no, I don't wanna hear it again

I'm getting back, get back on track, get off of my back
I'm getting back, get back on track, get off of my back
I'm getting back, get back on track, get off of my back
Yeah
I'm getting back, get back on track, get off of my back
I'm getting back, get back on track.

05. Goin' Down

Music & lyrics by Godsmack
I see the world it's going 'round.
Seems to me it's upside down.
Looking for something to say.
I feel a little different anyway.

Yeah, yeah.

Does it make much sense to you?
Doin' all those things you do.
Making sure that I'm alright?
Yeah, I'm fine!

I've been feeling I'm goin' down.
(Repeat).

06. Mistakes

Music & lyrics by Godsmack
No, I don't feel a thing.
Life's going by me. And still I say,
Oh God! I'm making the same mistakes.

Low? I'm on empty.
Try to erase all the bad times.
Free? I don't seem to be.
My soul remains tied to your life.
Every breath you breathe deep, I feel you circulating through me.
I'll never forgive myself again.
I'm so sick and tired of making the same mistakes.

07. Trippin'

Music & lyrics by Godsmack
Living a different way. You can't expect
Me to be the same. Separating our lives
And wondering why. Face down I walk away.
Every time I think I do the right thing,
You turn your back on me.

Trippin' into a world that never seems
Too far away. Too much time, too many
Wasted days.

How can you be this way? Now I'm alone and
Cold today. I'm walking dead man's drive.
Reaching out for my life. I've been known
To fuck up everything. In this skin there's a
Broken man.

Trippin' into a world that never seems
Too far away. Too much time, too many
Wasted days. Just another vision
In my world!

08. Forgive Me

Music & lyrics by Godsmack
There's nothing to me now. An empty shell unfolded.
How, when we learn to pray inside our demons are laughing
How long will this go on? Are we a bit much stronger?
Do you think you can save me from living this way?

I don't know how to love. I just know how to live.
All I feel is hate. Will you forgive me?

(Do I? Do I? Do I?)

For all those things I've done, they keep on creeping by me.
And though we've changed our ways,
Still all our demons are laughing.
How long will this go on? Aren't we a bit much stronger?
I'd like to think you've came into my life to stay.

I don't know how to love. I just know how to live.
All I feel is hate. Will you forgive me?
I don't know how to breathe with you too far away.
Don't know how to love. Will you forgive me?

(Do I? Do I? Do I?)

No I can't live this way!
I don't know how to love. I just know how to live.
All I feel is pain. Will you forgive me?
I don't know how to breathe with you too far away.
I don't know how to love.

Past lives I've lived. Uncontrolled but sacred.
You've finally seen all that's left of me.
So hard to feel. So hard to breathe.
Will you forgive me?
Will you forgive ME?

(Whispers)

Forgive me. Forgive me. Forgive me. Forgive me.

09. Vampires

Music & lyrics by Godsmack
"Few creatures of the night have captured our imagination like vampires.
What explains our enduring fascination with vampires?
What is it about the vampire myth that explains our interest?
Is it the overtone of sexual lust, power and control?
Or is it a fascination with the immortality of the undead?
And what dark and hidden parts of our psyche are aroused and captivated
by the legends of the undead, by the legends of the undead,
by the legends of the undead.
The mystery of the undead will continue to fascinate the living.

Few creatures of the night have captured our imagination like vampires.
What explains our enduring fascination with vampires?

And what dark and hidden parts of our psyche are aroused and captivated
by the legends of the undead, by the legends of the undead?"

10. The Journey

Music by Godsmack
Instrumental.

11. Spiral

Music & lyrics by Godsmack
Sometimes we only live for the here and now.
Sometimes we're lonely.
Sometimes we feel we need a place to be grounded
Or fly away again

I will fly away again
No, I will fly away again
I feel rain pouring down
I wait to rot away, live again, here forever
The spiral never ends

Why are we feeling something's familiar around us?
Are we just dreaming?
Always we search for the answers but nothing is found
We fly away again

I will fly away again
No, I will fly away again
I feel rain pouring down
I wait to rot away, live again, here forever
The spiral never ends
Rot away, live again, here forever
The spiral never ends

I feel rain pouring down
I wait to rot away, live again, here forever
The spiral never ends
Rot away, live again, here forever
The spiral never ends.
