Have you looked at yourself lately
You see the lines of time? Walking dead amongst the living Chaos by design I've seen you fall this far before I've seen you disappear You've thrown it all into the fire Ashes in your tears I felt your disease and now I think I've had enough. I've had enough I felt your disease and now I think I've had enough. I've had enough You've fallen on your sword again So not to face the truth Then ran head-on into what's real And collided into you I've heard you lying to yourself I've watched you fade away Your best laid plans are still born shadows Promise in decay I felt your disease and now I think I've had enough. I've had enough I felt your disease and now I think I've had enough. I've had enough I felt your disease and now I think I've had enough. I've had enough I felt your disease and now I think I've had enough. I've had enough I felt your disease and now I think I've had enough. I've had enough 02. Another Dick In The System
I'm not the devil
But I can show my horns All the things I did to you Could have been in a porn Then I heard the rumors Now I know they're true Some strange motherfucker Is gonna do 'em to you I said I loved you but you didn't listen I know there's another dick in the system I said I loved you but you didn't listen I know there's another dick in the system I've lived with angels I've laid with whores I gave you nothing but honesty Then I licked your sores I'm not the one to crucify With blood, iron and wood You're not the saviour to me anymore You're damaged goods? Yeah I said I loved you but you didn't listen I know there's another dick in the system I said I loved you but you didn't listen I know there's another dick in the system I said I loved you but you didn't listen I know there's another dick in the system I said I loved you but you didn't listen I know there's another dick in the system Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey 03. Pulling My Heart Out From Under Me
I laid my soul in front of you
I tied myself to the railroad tracks You refused my point of view Then diluted all my facts You won it, you broke it You held it to choke it You're pulling my heart Out from under You won it, you broke it You held it to choke it You're pulling my heart Out from under me I gave you all I had inside And every chance to tell the truth My faith in you has been denied But forced a smile in spite of you You won it, you broke it You held it to choke it You're pulling my heart Out from under You won it, you broke it You held it to choke it You're pulling my heart Out from under me Me. Me. Yeah out from under Me. Me. Me. Yeah out from under You won it, you broke it You held it to choke it You're pulling my heart Out from under You won it, you broke it You held it to choke it You're pulling my heart Out from under You won it, you broke it You held it to choke it You're pulling my heart Out from under me 04. When God Can't Wait
The kids are united, that's what we say
Sometimes you've got to shovel shit To make a little pay When we hear the whistle we break the gate To lead 'em to freedom when God can't wait God can't wait for sinners to come home God can't wait for saints to stand alone Fight the fight that fighters like to fight Bleed to blood That gets you through the night We rebuilt the mission but broke the bell The only way to heaven Is straight through living hell Someone phone a taxi to take us home To our brothers and sisters and we'll live on God can't wait for sinners to come home God can't wait for saints to stand alone Fight the fight that fighters like to fight Bleed to blood That gets you through the night They think by shooting bullets It'll make us dance Tell the fucking enemy They stand no fucking chance When we hear the whistle we break the gate To lead 'em to freedom when God can't wait Lead 'em to freedom when God can't wait Lead 'em to freedom when God can't wait Lead 'em to freedom, we'll lead 'em to freedom Lead 'em to freedom, we'll lead 'em to freedom Lead 'em to freedom, we'll lead 'em to freedom 05. Shut Up Baby, I Love You
I say "it's your love that keeps me alive"
But you drag me through the mud like a four wheel drive I've give you the moon, I'll give you my last beer I'd rather move too fast than be stuck in gear Maybe there's something that I don't see Are you in 3D? Are you the devil's seed or the devil in me What you gonna do? I told you I'd be true You scream at me until you're blue Now shut up baby, I love you Shut up baby, I love you Now shut up baby, I love you It's been so long since I knew what's real Now my foot's on the floor and I'm spinning my wheels They say you left town with another man Now I'm off to Mississippi with a gun in my hand Maybe there's something that I don't see Are you in 3D? Are you the devil's seed or the devil in me What you gonna do? I told you I'd be true You scream at me until you're blue Now shut up baby, I love you Shut up baby, I love you Now shut up baby, I love you Are you the devil's seed or the devil in me What you gonna do? I told you I'd be true You scream at me until you're blue Now shut up baby, I love you What you gonna do? I told you I'd be true You scream at me until you're blue Now shut up baby, I love you Shut up baby, I love you Shut up baby, I love you Shut up baby, I love you 06. Strength
[The Alarm cover]
Give me love Give me hope Give me strength Give me someone to live for Who will light the fire That I need to survive Who will be the life blood Coursing through my veins Like a river flowing That will never change I need someone I can depend on 'Cause I'm a man of emotions Who can't hide the tears I'm a man of feeling Who can't hide the pain I'm alone on the outskirts of town Where no one knows my name I'm at the point in my life Where I need affection Won't you Give me love (Give me love) Give me hope (Give me hope) Give me strength Give me someone to live for Give me love (Give me love) Give me hope (Give me hope) Give me strength Give me someone to live for I need it now I need it now Someone write me a letter I need to know that I'm still alive Someone give me a telephone call I need to hear a human sound Someone open up a door And let me out of this place I've been caged up for oh so long I don't know if I'm living or dying Someone better Give me love (Give me love) Give me hope (Give me hope) Give me strength Give me someone to live for Give me love (Give me love) Give me hope (Give me hope) Give me strength Give me someone to live for I walk alone across the outskirts of town I can't control what I'm going through now Will you light the fire that I need to survive Will you donate the life blood coursing through my veins Will you open up the door & let me out of this place I've been caged up for oh so long I don't know if I'm living or dying Won't you Give me love (Give me love) Give me hope (Give me hope) Give me strength Give me someone to live for Give me love (Give me love) Give me hope (Give me hope) Give me strength Give me someone Someone to live for 07. White Trash
Mama, I wanna grow up to be a drunk
Sit around, watch TV and pick my feet I wanna be pissed off and jealous of any Who's successful and complain that I can't keep a job! I'm not human, not human, I'm special I'm not human, not human, so special I wanna be white trash Sit around on my fat ass So many hours in the day To piss my life away I wanna be white trash Sit around on my fat ass So many hours in the day To piss my life away My sister, she's got 3 babies But she don't remember who their daddy is She was on Girls Gone Wild showin' her stuff Now she's a porn star, we're so proud of her She's not human, not human, she's special She's not human, not human, so special I wanna be white trash Sit around on my fat ass So many hours in the day To piss my life away I wanna be white trash Sit around on my fat ass So many hours in the day To piss my life away I wanna be white trash Sit around on my fat ass So many hours in the day To piss my life away I wanna be white trash Sit around on my fat ass So many hours in the day To piss my life away What that, you're looking for a donation? Save the whales, feed the children? Feed the children to the whales I'm savin' up for a big screen TV! 08. You Lie
You lie to me a first time
You'll lie to me again You pushed me out the front door While some stranger's walking in The way you say you love me is as ugly as sin You lie, you lie, you lie I waited up 'til morning just wondering what you'd say You stumbled on your story 'cause the truth got in the way You choked on your confession, but thought you had it saved While someone else was jumpin' in my grave You lie to me a first time You'll lie to me again You pushed me out the front door While some stranger's walking in The way you say you love me is as ugly as sin You lie, you lie, you lie I'm counting on the future, forgetting 'bout the past Just knowing you're not honest, well I knew it wouldn't last I'm trying to believe you but it's such a fucking chore You lyin', cheatin' dirty little whore You lie to me a first time You'll lie to me again You pushed me out the front door While some stranger's walking in The way you say you love me is as ugly as sin You lie, you lie, you lie You lie, you lie, you lie You lie to me a first time You'll lie to me again You pushed me out the front door While some stranger's walking in The way you say you love me is as ugly as sin You lie, you lie, you lie You lie, you lie, you lie You lie to me a first time You'll lie to me again You pushed me out the front door While some stranger's walking in The way you say you love me is as ugly as sin You lie, you lie, you lie You lie, you lie, you lie You lyin' motherfucker 09. Nothing
Houses on the hill
Looking down on all the little people's lives And wondering it I've been missing out Growing up is hard, isn't that what Bowie sang When he was young Before he knew what growing up was like Guess I'll never know, so I'll take it day by day As it comes until there's something else to think about If I want it all then I'll get it all Do I need it all? I need nothing If I want it all then I'll get it all Do I need it all? I need nothing but you Changing with the times Looking back on all our oldest memories to realize We haven't changed at all Records in my room It's still the place where we can go to get away from real life and real agony If we should disappear, we can take it day by day As it comes until there's something else to talk about If I want it all then I'll get it all Do I need it all? I need nothing If I want it all then I'll get it all Do I need it all? I need nothing but you If I want it all then I'll get it all Do I need it all? I need nothing If I want it all then I'll get it all Do I need it all? I need nothing If I want it all then I'll get it all Do I need it all? I need nothing If I want it all then I'll get it all Do I need it all? I need nothing but you 10. Love Is Dead
I've fallen for and fought the wars with you
And held my breath until I'm gray I choke myself until my skin turn blue On words I never got to say Feed me, bleed me I don't care I can't keep what I don't want A ghost needs a house to haunt Black holes inside your head Burns quick the turns to red Close the lid, drive the nails Bury me, 'cause love is dead No soul to sell, I've been through hell with you Then left our love outside to freeze We'd die in bed then you threw dirt on me And burn me out like a disease Thrill me, kill me I don't care I can't keep what I don't want A ghost needs a house to haunt Black holes inside your head Burns quick the turns to red Close the lid, drive the nails Bury me, 'cause love is dead I choke myself until my skin turn blue On words I never got to say Thrill me, kill me I don't care I can't keep what I don't want A ghost needs a house to haunt Black holes inside your head Burns quick the turns to red I can't keep what I don't want A ghost needs a house to haunt Black holes inside your head Burns quick the turns to red Close the lid, drive the nails Bury me, 'cause love is dead 11. Let It Ride
You never call to see me
Only when you want my love or something I start to feel outnumbered By you; my fear and the one you're thinking of When I dream that I'm in hell The devil bares your name And every time I wake up You're stuck inside my brain Let it ride, let it go Let it bleed, let it show If you lie, let me know Let it ride Let it ride, let it go Let it bleed, let it show If you lie, let me know Let it ride or let it go Go Stepping out a window On the edge of Son of Sam or the Boogeyman And your atomic future may kill us But is never gonna change the man I am When I dream that I'm in hell The devil calls your name And every time I wake up You're stuck inside my brain Let it ride, let it go Let it bleed, let it show If you lie, let me know Let it ride Let it ride, let it go Let it bleed, let it show If you lie, let me know Let it ride It couldn't grow any darker You made it burn forever more You like to hate me with love in your eyes There's nothing gong on that I don't realize Let it ride, let it go Let it bleed, let it show If you lie, let me know Let it ride Let it ride, let it go Let it bleed, let it show If you lie, let me know Let it ride Let it ride, let it go Let it bleed, let it show If you lie, let me know Let it ride Let it ride, let it go Let it bleed, let it show If you lie, let me know Let it ride Let it ride, let it go Let it bleed, let it show If you lie, let me know Let it ride Let it ride, let it go Let it bleed, let it show If you lie, let me know Let it ride |
