You got a question?
Please don't ask it It puts the lotion in the basket You say bigger is better but bigger is bigger White boy dressed up like a figure drawn Inside a toilet on the wall The world is round, my square don't fit at all They say those who can't just instruct others And act like victims or jilted lovers You can't lose it if you never had it Disappear man, do some magic You want a reason? Hows about because You ain't a has been if you never was I sound like this Scared to say what is your passion So slag it all, bitter is in fashion Fear of failure's all you've started The jury is in Verdict: retarded I'm so tired and I'm wired too I'm a mess I guess I'm turning on the screw 02. Sick, Sick, Sick
Young, dumb, don't see a problem
Bloodshot, stare like a hoodlum Simple as this; I'm in love with the risk I know what I've done But tell me what did I miss? So please don't save something Waste not, save nothing Lose the halo, don't need to resist A lick of the lips and a grip on your hips Sick, sick, sick Don't resist Sick, sick, sick Don't resist First thing we succumb to Shout, erase, and undo Days are unreleased, if there's no release Please just let me do whatever fits you Make something, make someone Beg on a knee, baby baby please Pout your bottom lip While cracking the whip You know what we want, It's candy to cum to Sick, sick, sick Don't resist Sick, sick, sick Don't resist A total eclipse in the teeth of the risk The tongue is a twist, perpetual bliss Forever midnight Forever midnight Forever midnight Forever... Sick, sick, sick Don't resist Sick, sick, sick Don't resist Sick sick, sick (I'm gonna take) Don't resist (I don't wanna choose) Sick, sick, sick (I'm gonna take) Don't resist (I don't wanna change) 03. I'm Designer
My generation's for sale
Beats a steady job How much have you got? My generation don't trust no one It's hard to blame Not even ourselves The thing that's real for us is: fortune and fame All the rest seems like work Its just like diamonds In shit I'm high class I'm a whore Actually both Basically I'm a pro We've all got our own style Of baggage Why hump it yourself? You've made me an offer that I can refuse 'Cos either way I get screwed Counter proposal: I go home and jerk Off It's truly a lie. I counterfeit myself It's truly a lie. I counterfeit myself You don't own, you don't own, you don't own You don't own what none can buy You don't own, you don't own Neither do I High and mighty you say selling out is a shame Is that the name of your book? Push a silver spoon in your ass No more holding us down dog Down mutt, nice mutt You're insulted you can't be bought or sold Translation: offer too low You don't know what you're worth It isn't much My piano is for sale How many times must I sell myself Before my pieces are gone? I'm one of a kind I'm designer! Never again will I repeat myself Enough is never enough Never again will I repeat myself It used to be the plan was: screwing the man Now it's have sex with a man After he buys you dot-com for sale at a low, low price It's truly a lie. I counterfeit myself It''s truly a lie. I counterfeit myself You don't own, you don''t own, you don''t own You don''t own what none can buy You don''t own, you don''t own what none can buy Neither do I 04. Into The Hollow
Avior, adieu, goodnight
I'm too wrong to get right But I can't wait forever I've always been alone A fool believes he's clever Don't you wanna go into the hollow? I won't go alone Aren't you gonna follow? I live behind my eyes Be sure to keep the surprise I break what I have borrowed That's why I always go alone into tomorrow Don't you wanna go into the hollow? I won't go alone Aren't you gonna follow? Into the hollow Into the hollow 05. Misfit Love
Don't wanna see my past in flames
Don't waste a drop baby, I ain't first Where I was born, no escape There, there ain't even no good/bad drugs In the city is it true? If you don't, you act like you do? Feast of fools, I can't wait Give 'em a taste of my misfit love Complicate, incarcerate Feel my heart wake up Ain't born to lose Baby, I'm born to win I'm so god damn sick baby, it's a sin Transforming is becoming Transforming is becoming on me Do me first, do your worst Gimme what I want some of One track mind, no time to waste Sidewalks, feel me strut so good Gutter, don''t forget this face Let 'em taste my misfit love I''ll show you all my dirty tricks Then show 'em again I'm so proud of this Cruel to be constantly Feel my heart play dumb Ain''t born to lose Baby, I''m born to win I'm so sick baby, it's a sin It's a sin Just a dead man walking through the dead of night And if you are driving anywhere tonight Just a dead end walking through the dead of night And if you are going there, can I get a ride? Just a dead man walking through the dead of night It's impossible to wait until the light 'Cause I'm already gone If you bet on me, you've won 'Cause I'm already gone If you bet on me, you've won 'Cause I'm already gone If you bet on me, you've won 'Cause I'm already gone If you bet on me, you've won 06. Battery Acid
Make you into dark
Straight into your heart Sorry all you are I don't really care I know you are Robots, robots Brainwashed babies, blood from a leech Spoken rabies Spastic, plastic, battery acid Yank on the leash Dragging you backwards Oh my Closed eyes never see it coming There's no thing you can say You can't wish me away Every masochist, gets a turn Sadistic twist, you'll never learn Battery acid, battery acid Battery acid in my veins Unidentified remains Yes button broke to automatic Irrational dosage of furious static Erasing what you are, you were (Jealous) To feel the way you do (Dementia) The lie you call the truth (Beautiful) Nothing except yourself, and nobody else I got nobody else There's no thing you can say You can't wish me away Every masochist, gets a turn Sadistic twist, you'll never learn Battery acid, battery acid 07. Make It Wit Chu
You wanna know if I know why?
I can't say that I do Don't understand the evil eye Or how one becomes two I just can't recall what started it all Or how to begin the end I ain't here to break it Just see how far it will bend Again and again, again and again I wanna make it I wanna make it wit chu Anytime, anywhere I wanna make it (Again and again) I wanna make it wit chu Sometimes the same is different But mostly it's the same These mysteries of life, That just ain't my thing If I told you that I knew About the sun and the moon I'd be untrue The only thing I know for sure Is what I won't do Anytime, anywhere I wanna make it (Again and again) I wanna make it wit chu Anytime, anywhere I wanna make it (Again and again) I wanna make it wit chu I wanna make it (Anytime, anywhere) I wanna make it wit chu I wanna make it I wanna make it wit chu I wanna make it (Again and again) I wanna make it wit chu I wanna make it (Anytime, anywhere) I wanna make it wit chu I wanna make it (Again and again) I wanna make it wit chu I wanna make it (Again and again, and again, and again, and again) 08. 3's & 7's
Lie, lie to my face
Tell me it ain't nothing That's what I wanna hear Take the lie to the grave That's what an old friend told me Look what it did for him The truth hurts so bad Wouldn't you say? So why tell it? If ignorance is bliss Then I'm in heaven now Run, you'll never escape You see you'll go nowhere Soon you will appear Broke, laid to waste Turn into sweet nothings Kiss you goodbye The truth hurts so bad Wouldn't you say? So why tell it? If ignorance is bliss Then I'm in heaven now I keep going over and over again To never ending places I've never been No one's catching on, calling my bluff The devil made me holier than every man What you do, say it with a smile boy Making us all forget What you do, say it with a smile boy Making us all forget Making us all forget Making us all forget 09. Suture Up Your Future
I'm gonna suture up my future
I ain't jaded, I just hate it See, I been down too long It's kinda hard to explain Done and buried, all I carried All my evil through a needle As if pulled through the eye What was and what will They're all gone Don't sweat it Thread it to forget it To feel like you're already gone To the rest of The rest of the life that you've got Take a picture Bury it all away Bury it all away Try to fake it I just can't take it I don't care if it hurts Just so long as it's real I won't waste it I turn to face it I'd sharpen the knife Then used it to bone, made it dull Tried explaining unexplained Got caught in the plan All this talking at once I've been giving my love away To the things that tear it apart I'm gonna suture up my future Thread it to forget it To feel like you're already gone To the rest of The rest of the life that you've got Tie the loose ends Bury it all away It's like there's It's like there's 10. River In The Road
Fast approaching monsters, marching in a row
Grab what slips your mind And what your memory won't hold Run, darling run I'll stall them if I can You'll escape and I'll be left rotting on the vine Run Run darling, run I'll stall them if I can You'll escape and I'll be left rotting on the vine Avert the children's eyes, forget left untold Don't look back to see the blood River in the road Run Let's seek revenge with my blood River in the road 11. Run Pig Run
When I was young
We used to play the game of hide and seek Someone go hide, I count to ten You probably never played Instead you talk a game of sheep A skill you almost do perfect Run pig, run Here I come I am no saint and make no claims To being in the right It's just for now, I am wrong-less You probably wondering With what to do, this has with you I wanna play the game you missed Run pig, run Here I come There is no safe place There is no safe place There is no safe place to hide |
