Lie!!!
I'm a fish out of water (I'm a fish out of water) Kill me and choke on the bones (Kill me and choke on the bones) Nothing seems to matter anymore Gotta get back to the reason Gotta get back to the hole Someone throw me an anchor I've gotta drown this disease (I've gotta drown this disease) No one seems to matter anymore Gotta get back to the meaning Gotta get back the score Buy my soul so you can sell me! I don't need this I don't need you Trust your lies! Then you betray me! I don't want this I don't want you Up the creek with no paddle (Up the creek with no paddle) Through the ears of a board No one seems to care at all anymore Gotta get back to the evening Gotta make back something more Let me tell you a secret (Let me tell you a secret) So you can tell it or leave No one holds to their honesty anymore Gotta get back to the stealing Gotta get back from the whore Buy my soul so you can sell me! I don't need this I don't need you Trust your lies! Then you betray me! I don't want this I don't want! You... I don't want you Who do you wanna be? The summit of integrity On the bottom of the filth The dark hollow me All these falling angels Skeletons of what they once were Hanging in the closet for the world to see And now they're fallen angels Faced by demons on their judgment Hanging from the gallows For us all to see!!! Nobody told me! Nobody forewarned! Nobody told me! Nobody forewarned! Buy! (Buy!!!) My soul! (My soul!!!) So you can sell me! I don't need this I don't need you Trust! (Trust!!!) Your lies! (Your lies!!!) Then you betray me! I don't want this! I don't want you! 02. Have It Your Way Music & lyrics by Mudvayne
What we're you thinking?
What was going on inside your head? Tell me we're you drinking? Or just plain insane? How we're you feeling? With another couple thousand dead Or we're you lying? Just playing games Placing your bet Russian roulette Well on your way To ending our days You'll leave us all behind Broken with precision Blind leading the blind Have it your way You've left us all behind Riddled with deception Pepper us with lime Have it your way Was it for your father? Did you get a little pat on the head? That's the way to go boy Clean up his mess Placing your bet Russian roulette Your on your way To ending our days You'll leave us all behind Broken with precision Blind leading the blind Have it your way You've left us all behind Riddled with deception Pepper us with lye Have it your way Welcome to the new way The new world order part two But I'll be damned if they Would ever die for you The world is crashing down All around us, all around you The world is falling down Have it your way, we have nothing to say You'll leave us all behind Broken with precision Blind leading the blind Have it your way You've left us all behind Riddled with deception Pepper us with lye Have it your way Bombs, bullets and blood The things that we don't see The things that we can't touch Nightmares are reality The things that we don't see On the T.V. Pledge your allegiance To the bombs, bullets and blood Pledge your allegiance To the bombs, bullets and blood 03. A New Game Music & lyrics by Mudvayne
Hunger, inside me
That door is rising, to quench is to kill Lusting, enemy But you don't know me, stand against your will To satisfy me, pick my victim Spells his name (those poor little girls) So charming, say all the right things Just come with me (Let's go for a ride) Trust me, believe me, don't be so deceiving God help me, and save me, from my lust and beatings Lest we play (lest we play) A new game The hunter, within me That's always searching, thirst for the kill Abducted, take away Thirst for the patience, of a thousand men Fuel my eyes, locked on target The covert men (You never had a chance) Don't be alarmed, want some candy Just ride over here (now get inside) Trust me, believe me, don't be so deceiving God help me, restrain me, from my lust and beatings Lest we play (lest we play) A new... I just wanna play (I just wanna play) I just wanna play a game A new game You meant everything to me But now your time has come Another broken doll today Now your time has come You meant everything to me But now your time has come Another broken doll today Now your time has come (Come here... come here Want some candy? Let's take a ride Let's take a ride...) I just wanna play I just wanna play a game One that you never played before One that you'll never play again I'm sure I just wanna play I just wanna play a game One that you never played before One that you'll never play again I'm sure I just wanna play I just wanna play a game One that you never played before One that you'll never play again I'm sure I just wanna play I just wanna play a game One that you never played before One that you'll never play again I'm sure I just wanna play I just wanna play a game One that you never played before One that you'll never play again I'm sure 04. Dull Boy Music & lyrics by Mudvayne
All work and no play makes me a dull boy...
All work and no play makes me a dull boy... All work and no play makes me a dull boy... ALL WORK AND NO PLAY MAKES ME A DULL BOY! Live in a secret Live in a lie Live in a dark hole beneath the black sky Live like a martyr and draw my last breath Feel like an old man with a knife in my chest Live like a transient Live like a thief Hide in a closet, grinding my teeth Sit in a small room with the walls closing in Open the shutters but everything's still dim Payback For all the things I've done in my past Payback For everything There are no take backs [Chorus] I'm not the reason It's not my fault It's not my problem I'm not the cause I'm not your scapegoat I'm not your god I'm not your martyr I'd leave you all I'm not the reason - (I'm not your scapegoat) It's not my fault - (I'm not your god) It's not my problem - (I'm not your martyr) I'm not the cause - (I'd leave you all) All work and no play makes me a dull boy Feel like a clown without my funny nose Walk to the window break it out with my fist Jump from the sill and I'll plunge to my death You can be selfish whatever ya think Throw back my pills and take a sip of my drink Walk under the clouds Walk under the trees Always again envy covering me Payback For all the things I've done in my past [Chorus] Sunshine's gone It's all gone By the way, just so you know Always, this is how I feel By the way, just so you know Always, everyday, this is how I feel I'm not the reason It's not my fault It's not my problem I'm not the cause I'm not your scapegoat - (I'm not your scapegoat) I'm not your god - (I'm not your god) I'm not your martyr - (I'm not your martyr) This is how I feel - (This is how I feel) By the way, just so you know Always, everyday, this is how I feel... 05. Do What You Do Music & lyrics by Mudvayne
Lips bleed from the rings,
All these little bruises, the little things, That provoke the segregation. Lead the separation. Cage and clip the wings. Little noises, the little screams, That stop the operation. Conscious amputation. [Chorus:] Just do what you do, What you do, what you did to me. Now I'm stuck in between a rock and nowhere, With nothing, With no one. Just do what you do, What you do, what you've done to me. Draw the chalk line around the scene, it's over, Now it's all over. Like a heart that's lost its beat. A little boy, that softly weeps, Overwhelmed with emotion, Views burns through explosion. Lost the forest through the trees Little whispers, the little dreams, That sparked the recollection. Constant suffocation. [Chorus:] Just do what you do, What you do, what you did to me. Now I'm stuck in between a rock and nowhere, With nothing, With no one. Just do what you do, What you do, what you've done to me. Draw the chalk line around the scene, it's over, Now it's all over. I can feel my life is changing, Changing. I can feel my heart is jaded, Jaded. Left the sticks, Left the stones, Words don't hurt, Mend the bones. I can feel my life is changing. [Chorus:] Just do what you do, What you do, what you did to me. Now I'm stuck in between a rock and nowhere, With nothing, With no one. Just do what you do, What you do, what you've done to me. Draw the chalk line around the scene, it's over, Now it's all over. Erase the past and leave the pain, Cleanse the wounds and forget the name. Lost the will, ran far away, So it's all over. Spread the ash and fill the grave, Lost the tongue and make my way. Do what you do and go away, Now it's all over. 06. The Hate In Me Music & lyrics by Mudvayne
Lend me your children to borrow
I just need to send them away Long eyes and tears of sorrow I promise I'll keep them safe So sorry it didn't work out You believe the liar in me My god, my love, my life My world, my loss, my rage Agnostic, for the greater good When the good things seem to be Few and far between Conscious, loss of conscience Packed the body on ice Just to keep it numb Now feel it Blame some things on the past Threw away everything that I had Unraveling for the last time Stepping out of my skin (cast in armor) The hate in me Feeling so empty The guilt I swallow Carve the line Skin the face Stare through me We'll leave you hollow HOLLOW Assembly of the militant Order through anarchy Eradicate the power's law Hope's a thing of the past Hold the gun to your head (The hammer falls) The hate in me Feeling so empty The guilt I swallow Carve the line Skin the face Stare through me We'll leave you hollow Hollow Wounded, have a loss of feeling So dead, my heart, My life has been ruined Lost in an instant Saw red in my eyes The hate in me So consuming The lives we swallow To the front line Mirror's engaged Scope's on me And leaves me hollow Harvest Children My god, my love, my life My world, my loss, my grave 07. Scarlet Letters Music & lyrics by Mudvayne
My heart is beating
The sun is The blood is flowing Setting free I lost my balance But god knows I try I don't wanna be here anymore In scarlet letters Carved in two, what once was me Once was yours, no more Another battle And I don't mind Chain unbroken Consumed by the light Now what do you want? Help me find I don't wanna be here anymore In scarlet letters Carved in two, what once was me Once was yours, no more I don't wanna be here anymore The scarlet letters Carved in two, what once was me A piece of you, no more Do you believe in loss Do you believe in fate Do you believe in death Now that I'm gone Forsaken me Ashes to dust Just let me lie Lay me to rest I've done my best But lost my sight Turning my back Leave me alone It's fear and Nothing Say goodbye [Solo] I don't wanna be here anymore In scarlet letters Carved in two, what once was me Once was yours, no more I don't wanna be here anymore The scarlet letters Carved in two What once was me Once was yours No more 08. Same Ol? Music & lyrics by Mudvayne
It's always just the same ol' thing (ol' thing)
It's always just the same ol' thing (ol' thing) It's always just the same ol' thing (ol' thing) I don't mind going hungry It's the hate that you feed I don't mind being broken Lost my will to believe I don't mind being left to waste to rot Pull me down like a weed, so what? So I just don't fit Its who I wanna be So I just don't care Its who I wanna be So I just don't Mind It's who I wanna be So I don't give a fuck It's who I wanna be I don't mind being tired When I can't fucking sleep I don't mind being shattered Living outside your dream I don't mind being put to death and broke Another day to me, so what? Get it on (what?) Stand up straight (so what?) Face the front (what?) Now listen up (so what?) Same ol' problems Same ol' days Same ol' story Same ol' game Same ol' hustles The same ol' way Same ol' situation Same ol' days I don't mind beating on you But it's come for me I don't mind being followed But you can see my disease I don't mind being bullied and pushed down Lost my eyes, skinned my knees, so what? So I just don't fit It's who I wanna be So I just don't care It's who I wanna be So I just don't Mind It's who I wanna be So I don't give a fuck It's who I wanna be Get it on (what?) Stand up straight (so what?) Feed the front (what?) Now listen up (so what?) Same ol' problems Same ol' days Same ol' story Same ol' game Same ol' hustle The same ol' way Same ol' situation Same ol' days Always just the (same ol', same ol', same ol') Always just the (same ol', same ol', same ol') Always just the (same ol', same ol', same ol') I'm just a puzzle missing all the pieces and I don't care and I don't mind, but would you care at all? Don't fit Don't care Don't mind Don't give a fuck In my face In my way In my business breaking me All the time Everyday Every fucking second, get away Same ol' problems Same ol' days Same ol' story Same ol' game Same ol' problems Same ol' days Same ol' story Same ol' game Same ol' hustle The same ol' way Same ol' situation Same ol' days What? So what? What? So what? What? So what? What? So what? 09. Never Enough Music & lyrics by Mudvayne
My legs are weary
But I still walk My hands are sore and broken But I still clutch My heart is jaded But I still love My cup is empty But I still pour All I ever wanted to be All I ever needed to be Was whatever you wanted me to But you took that from me, yeah [Chorus:] I was never enough for you I should have known I should've known I was never enough for you Don't waste my time Don't waste my I've lost the feeling But I still touch I stopped believing But I still trust All I ever wanted to be All I ever needed to be Was whatever you wanted me to But you took that from me, yeah [Chorus] All these questions, asking why? I'll just close my eyes, my eyes All these people, asking why? I'll just wave goodbye, goodbye Time, pushing forward I'm sick and tired Need a little shelter Drag the glass across my eyes Cut me open, cut me wide Leave me for the winner Just to the winner [Chorus] I was never enough for you Just wasting time Don't waste mine 10. A Cinderella Story Music & lyrics by Mudvayne
Hold me back and hold me down
Hold me close then push me around Beat me up, beat me down to the ground I'm sure I deserved it Left my world, left me alone Locked inside head becomes my home Inside a hole buried bag of bone I'm sure you had your reasons Out of your sight Are you out of your mind? In my absence your heart Never grew fonder You just leave me alone Tell me, please tell me It ain't so I can't believe it so I walk the road You just left me alone Tell me, please tell me It ain't so Have to believe it so I walk alone So I walk alone By myself Had my back then you turned around Love by your fault but we're never proud Ran away but I'm not aloud So I suffered through it Out of your sight Are you out of your mind? In my absence your heart Never grew fonder You just leave me alone Tell me, please tell me It ain't so I can't believe it so I walk the road You just left me alone Tell me, please tell me It ain't so Have to believe it so I walk alone So I walk alone You're not my family Just nothing left for me you see It's just like Cinderella Locked up and hid away You have no idea What you've created Why don't you take a look And see through a hole without a key And see what I've been missing Goddamn you for what has You're not my family Just nothing left for me you see It's just like Cinderella Locked up and hid away You have no idea What you've created Why don't you take a look And see through a hole without a key And see what I've been missing Goddamn you for what has been done (No one left, for me) You just leave me alone Tell me, please tell me It ain't so I can't believe it so I walk the road You just left me alone Tell me, please tell me It ain't so Have to believe it so I walk alone So I walk alone [x4] It's just like Cinderella Locked up and hid away You have no idea 11. We The People Music & lyrics by Mudvayne
I thought we the people had a brain
I thought we the people had a say Could've sworn I read it somewhere, Might've seen it on a bumper sticker I though we the people had a right I guess we the people we're wrong We the people are on Let's go elect another god The love they make I don't give a damn anyway Rules are made to break Too big too mean too blind The American dream Or a bag of magic beans You can fight on T.V. Whatever you need Send me your tired Your poor and broken Send me your life So I can break you We the people can have a plan We the people can make a stand Could've swore I read it somewhere Might've seen it in the funny papers Your money's made to take Too cheap to steal, to rob I could tell you had a dream That busted at the seams You can get it on the T.V Whatever you need Send me your tired Your poor and broken Send me your life So I can break you Give me your trust Your faith and wishes Give me your life So I can own you Control YOU! Hope I sell out Hope I sell out Every day there's something new to try Every day there's something new to buy Every day there's a new American dream Send me your tired Your poor and broken Send me your life So I can break you Give me your trust Your faith and wishes Give me your life So I can own you |
