I am a dominant gene - live as I die
Never say forever 'cause forever's a lie
I can see right through it so I can't ignore you
The story changes but the ending will bore you

I tried to tell you but you simply obeyed
They didn't listen so they threw you away
Now all you do is talk
I don't wanna hear your bullshit
Is this what you want?!

This is where it begins
This is where it ends
This is where it begins
And this is where it ends

They called us a dead generation
They told us that we wouldn't survive
They left us alone in the maelstrom
As you can see we're all plenty alive
We know where you are and were coming
Let's see you say that shit to our face

30/30-150 remembers
30/30-150 hates

In my own peculiar way I feel mercurial
Before I get ahead of myself again
I know the where but I still don't know the when

You wanna live in a one-sided world
Be prepared for a whole world of hurt
Now with the grand facade
I don't want to be an angel
I just want to be god

They called us a dead generation
They told us that we wouldn't survive
They left us alone in the maelstrom
As you can see we're all plenty alive
We know where you are and were coming
Let's see you say that shit to our face

30/30-150 remembers
30/30-150 hates
Hates

I am a fucking machine fueled by the past
Memory's a memory until it's a fact
I can bury the hatchet and let some shit go
But I got too many grudges to hold!

Saw a lot of people die in the end
I never want to walk that road again
Now I will never give up
I don't want to have it all
I just want to have enough

This is where it begins
This is where it ends
This is where it begins
And this is where it ends

They called us a dead generation
They told us that we wouldn't survive
They left us alone in the maelstrom
As you can see we're all plenty alive
We know where you are and were coming
Let's see you say that shit to our face

30/30-150 remembers
30/30-150 hates

Can you take away every single day
That we have given to another false prophet?
Can you give us all a reason not to fall
Before you take away another broken promise?

Show your pretty face, hide the bitter taste
You're still a rapist of an entire nation
You wanna be the man? You gotta be a man
But you are nothing but a sad insinuation

How can we ever live this down?
How can we ever live this down?

Keep your fingers crossed, the truth is all lost
Big decision for an ordinary coward
The only problem is you're fucking rhetoric
We're more in danger than before you took power

Now it's just a game, God, you'll never change
You'll sell us out if you can only find a buyer
You don't give a shit as long as idiots
Are in your corner, you can set us all on fire

How can we ever live this down?
How can we ever live this down?

You never wanted to be
They only wanted parody
You want the world to be free
What the hell is free about it?

Now we've reached the end, just get it over with
But this is building to an adamant conclusion
Come whatever may, there's gonna be a day
When we have figured out a possible solution

Everything you've done is killing everyone
A little smile on a homicidal bastard
You wanna be the man? You better have a plan
Another failure is a guarantee disaster

How can we ever live this down?
How can we ever live this down?

You never wanted to be
They only wanted a parody
You want the world to be free
You only wanted the world

You never wanted to be
They only wanted a parody
You want the world to be free
What the fuck is free about it?
What the fuck is free about it?
What the fuck is free about it?

I'm not a victim
'Til I let you take me down
I'm not a target in the sights of your mercy
I never asked for anything
I'm not asking now

I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid

I've done this on my own
And I don't care what you do to me
I won't hand over what is mine

I've done this for too long
To let you take it away from me
It's too late to stop me
'Cos I refuse to die

I haven't weakened
Just because I've shown myself
I've taken everything
Except what's for granted
I'll leave hypocrisy for everybody else

I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid

I've done this on my own
And I don't care what you do to me
I won't hand over what is mine

I've done this for too long
To let you take it away from me
It's too late to stop me
'Cos I refuse to die

I'm not a problem
'Til you make one out of spite
I'll give you hell & consequences for trying
If don't want an enemy
Don't fuck with my life

I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid

I've done this on my own
And I don't care what you do to me
I won't hand over what is mine

I've done this for too long
To let you take it away from me
It's too late to stop me
'Cos I refuse to die

I've done this on my own
And I don't care what you do to me
I won't hand over
I won't hand over what is mine

I've done this for too long
To let you take it away from me
It's too late to stop me
'Cos I refuse, I refuse to die
I refuse to die

Freedom's just a word today
Freedom's just a word
When someone takes your word away
It's seldom ever heard

So take your sentence full of things
You're not supposed to say
Carry on but don't write it down
Or you'll be gone

Love is just a song today
Love is just a song
When someone takes the song away
You'll seldom sing along

So take those lyrics serious
And sing your life away
Carry on, don't write 'em down
Or they'll be gone

All we ever do is talk
We like to ride but we never walk
We make it so damn easy
We get bored

Why can't anybody see
What's good for you is good for me?
I can't take your sillyworld
I can't take your sillyworld no more

Peace is just two fingers now
Peace was just a phase
When someone put it on a shirt
She nearly killed the days

So take those fingers tape 'em up
And shove 'em up your ass
And carry on, don't try it now
'Cause peace is gone

All we ever do is talk
We like to ride but we never walk
We make it so damn easy
We get bored

Why can't anybody see
What's good for you is bad for me?
And I can't take your sillyworld
I can't take your sillyworld no more

We fight our instincts
We go to extremes
We fight our instincts
We go to extremes

We fought a lot [x13]

This one came from looking
This one opened twice
These two seem as smooth as silk
Flush against my eyes

This one needed stitches and
This one came from rings
This one isn't even there
But I feel them all because you don't care

Yeah, cut right into me
Yeah, because I am made of scars
Yes I am made of scars

This one had it coming
This one found a vein
This one was an accident
But never gave me pain

This one was my fathers anger
This one you can't see
This one had me scared to death
But I guess I should be glad I'm not dead

Yeah, cut right into me
Yeah, because I am made of scars
Yes, I am made of scars
Yeah

God, don't you believe the hive
God, don't you believe the hive
God, don't you believe the hive
Oh, I can't believe it

You know I'll find a way
Everything you are I will betray
Oh, I swear that I will find a way
Everything you are is inside me

This one was the first one
This one had a vice
This one here I love to rub
On dark and stormy nights

This one was the last one,
I don't remember how
But I remember blood and rain
And I never saw it coming again

Yeah, cut right into me
Yeah, because I am made of scars
Yes, I am made of scars

That's what I'm made of

I am walking through your streets
I am looking in your windows
I am elemental now
You'll never even know I'm there

I am watching over you
I am living in the shadows
I am just a word to you
But I am very real and cold

Cold to all of this
Cold to how you feel
Cold to all your loose reason

I am everything
I am anything
I am automatic

I am yesterday
I am everyday
I am gonna be

I am all there is to know
I am all that you've forgotten
I am enigmatic now
You never even knew my name

I am dressed in tragedy
I am by design immortal
I am just the last one left
But I am always here and old

Old and very strong
Old as all you feel
Old as all the world around you

I am everything
I am anything
I am automatic

I am yesterday
I am everyday
I am gonna be

Reborn
(This is the start of something)
Reborn
(This is the start of something)

Reborn
(This is the start of something)
Reborn
(This is the start of something)

I am just a secret now
I am just a vague illusion
I'm a lie you tell yourself
That you never truly did believe

I'm a whisper in the dark
I'm a victim and the killer
I am almost ready now
But you insist I don't exist

That I don't exist
That I don't exist
That I don't exist

I am everything
I am anything
I am automatic

I am yesterday
I am everyday
I am gonna be

Reborn
(This is the start of something)
Reborn
(This is the start of something)

Reborn
(This is the start of something)
Reborn
(This is the start of something)

Motherfucker
Motherfucker
Motherfucker

What am I supposed to do now?

Reveal to me this ugly thing
I must've meddled by your head
It's getting out of hand again
Nobody sees it, but I can

You thought of everything, I bet
But did you think that I might die?
I haven't really smiled
And I don't know how long you know
Something's going to give again
Something's going to give again

I try to fight, but did you listen?
Even though you're gone, I'm never finished
I can never be your god
And I don't even think I want the job anymore

Say something, anything to me
I did believe, but I have doubts
So many reasons to hold on
Conflicting interest isn't it

I guess I'm better off in the end
'Cause you were always there to blame
I haven't felt so bad
And I don't know how long you know
I can't get away again
I can't get away again

I try to fight, but did you listen?
Even though you're gone, I'm never finished
I can never be your god
And I don't even think I want the job anymore

I try to fight, but did you listen?
Even though you're gone, I'm never finished
I can never be your god
And I don't even think I want the job anymore

What am I supposed to do now?
How am I supposed to live now?

All I ever did was try, but the story ends
So I guess I'm have to die

Where am I supposed to go now?

Go ahead and go away
Go ahead and go away
Go ahead and go away
Go ahead and go away
Go away

What am I supposed to do now?
How am I supposed to live now?

All I ever did was try, but the story ends
So I guess I'm have to die

What am I supposed to do now?
How am I supposed to live now?

What am I supposed to do now?
How am I supposed to live now?

How am I supposed to live?

I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
Oh, god it feels like forever
But no one ever tells you that forever
Feels like home sitting all alone inside your head

'Cause I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
All I know is that it feels like forever
When no one ever tells you that forever
Feels like home, sitting all alone inside your head

How do you feel? That is the question
But I forget... you don't expect an easy answer
When something like a soul becomes
Initialized and folded up like paper dolls and little notes
You can't expect a bit of hope
So while you're outside looking in
Describing what you see
Remember what you're staring at is me

'Cause I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
All I know is that it feels like forever
When no one ever tells you that forever
Feels like home, sitting all alone inside your head

How much is real? So much to question
An epidemic of the mannequins
Contaminating everything
When thought came from the heart
It never did right from the start
Just listen to the noises
(No more sad voices)
Before you tell yourself
It's just a different scene
Remember it's just different from what you've seen

I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
And all I know is that it feels like forever
When no one ever tells you that forever
Feels like home, sitting all alone inside your head

'Cause I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
And all I know is that it feels like forever
When no one ever tells you that forever
Feels like home, sitting all alone inside your head

And it's the stars
The stars
That shine for you
And it's the stars
The stars
That lie to you.. yeah-ah

And it's the stars
The stars
That shine for you
And it's the stars
The stars
That lie to you.. yeah-ah

I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
Oh, god it feels like forever
But no one ever tells you that forever
Feels like home, sitting all alone inside your head

'Cause I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
All I know is that it feels like forever
But no one ever tells you that forever
Feels like home, sitting all alone inside your head

And it's the stars
The stars
That shine for you.. yeah-ah
And it's the stars
The stars
That lie to you.. yeah-ah

And it's the stars
The stars
That shine for you.. yeah-ah
And it's the stars
The stars
That lie to you.. yeah-ah

Oh when the stars
Oh when the stars
That lie

I remember now
But I still have my doubts
I think it's gonna be today
Everybody came, but it's just not the same
Why did it have to be today?
Now my chest is tight
No, I am not all right
It doesn't have to be this way
Why does it have to be this way?

I don't know what's wrong
It's like I'm too far gone
It doesn't matter anyway
Fear is in my heart
Just when I stop, it starts
And I can never live this way

Freedom in a cage
No sun and too much rage
I don't know how much I can take
(I don't know how much I can take)
Push it down inside
But it knows just where to hide
I know the "normal" is hard to fake
(I know the normal is hard to fake)
Bleeding into life
It's like a thousand knives
Are slowly turning me into this
Why does it have to be like this?

I don't know what's wrong
It's like I'm too far gone
It doesn't matter anyway
Fear is in my heart
Just when I stop, it starts
And I can never live this way

I lost again, today...

I don't know what's wrong
It's like I'm too far gone
It doesn't matter anyway
Fear is in my heart
Just when I stop, it starts
And I can never live this way

Living with a curse
Sometimes it's even worse
It slowly kills me every day
Something I despise is gonna take my life
I guess I'll try again today

Why - is everything so grey - is everything so strange
Is everything so thrown together by mistake?
Why - is everything contrite- is everything a plight
Is everything so insincere and out of sight?

Why - does everything seem wrong
Does everything look drawn
Does everything seem blasted like it doesn't belong

I wanna make it a way - I wanna make it a waste
I wanna make it a gross misadventure
I wanna make you all!
I wanna make you all!
I wanna make you... lie to me, lie to me

When - did everything go bad - did everything fall flat
Did everything decay and lose itself so fast?
When - did everything succumb - did everything go numb
Did everything lobotomize what it's become?

When - does everything come back
Does everything relapse
Does everything save face and find itself at last?

I wanna show you the way - I wanna show you the waste
I wanna show you the worst misadventure
I wanna show you all!
I wanna show you all!
I wanna show you how to... die for me, die for me

I wanna give it a way - I wanna give it the waste
I wanna give it the worst misadventure
I wanna give it all!
I'm gonna give it all!
I'll never give up!
Lie to me, die for me

Now - everything's a lie - everything's your lie
Everything's a face inside another lie
Now - everything's a side - everything's one side
Everything depends on just which side you're on

This fluid feels like pain
This stoic mood is all in vain
I reach into the dark
I tear the sun in me apart
How many years ago?
How many deaths I can't let go?
My flesh is temporary, my god extraordinary

You can't kill my mind
A man delivered can never make his way in darkness
I know tonight will end
But I won't give this life away again

Sifting through the seen debris
Oh my father call to me
This smoke is my blood
This song is just no good
Save me from my bitterness
Give me up, I did my best
Shock this system full of shit
Mock this fucker lost in it

You can't kill my mind
A man delivered can never make his way in darkness
I know tonight will end
But I won't give this life away
I won't give this life away again

A man surrendered can never find his own forgiveness
I know my life will end
But I won't give tonight away
I won't give tonight away again

This fluid feels like pain
This ruin feels like rain
I'll reach into the past
My future's fading fast
How many years ago?
How many I'll let go?
My flesh is all i have
My face is Happenstance
This smoke is my blood
This life is not enough
This life is not enough
This life is not enough

I don't know how else to put this
It's taking me so long to do this
I'm falling asleep and I can't see straight

My muscles feel like a melee
Body is curled in an U-shape
I put up my best, but I'm still afraid

Propped up by lies and promises
Saving my place as life forgets
Maybe it's time I saw the world

I'm only here for a while
Patience it's not my style
And I'm so tired that I gotta go

What am I supposed to want now
What am I supposed to do?
Did you really think I wouldn't see this through?

Tell me I should stick around for you
Tell me I could have it all
And still I'm too tired to care and I gotta go

I get to go home in one week
But I'm leaving home in three weeks
They throw me a bone just to pick me dry

I'm following soothing directions
I crawled up inside for protection
I'm told what to do and I don't know why

I'm over-existing in limbo
I'm over the myths and placebos
I don't really mind if I just fade away

I'm ready to live with my family
I'm ready to die in obscurity
'Cause I'm so tired that I gotta go

What am I supposed to want now?
What am I supposed to do?
Still don't think I wouldn't see this through?

Tell me I am part of history
Tell me I can have it all
And still I'm too tired to care and I gotta go

Oh yeah
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah

Still too tired to care and I gotta go
Still too tired to care and I gotta go
Still too tired to care and I gotta go
Still too tired to care and I gotta go

Go home
Still too tired to care and I gotta go
Yeah yeah
Still too tired to care and I gotta go
