Something has to change
Undeniable dilemma
Boredom's not a burden
Anyone should bear

Constant over stimulation numbs me
But I would not want you
Any other way

It's not enough
I need more
Nothing seems to satisfy
I don't want it
I just need it
To breathe
To feel
To know I'm alive

Finger deep within the borderline
Show me that you love me
And that we belong together
Relax
Turn around
And take my hand

I can help you change
Tired moments into pleasure
Say the word and we'll be
Well upon our way

Blend and balance
Pain and comfort
Deep within you
Till you will not want me
Any other way

It's not enough
I need more
Nothing seems to satisfy
I don't want it
I just need it
To breathe
To feel
To know I'm alive

Knuckle deep inside the borderline
This may hurt a little
But it's something you'll get used to
Relax
Slip away

Something kinda sad about
The way that things have come to be
Desensitized to everything
What became of subtlety?

How can it mean anything to me
If I really don't feel anything at all?

I'll keep digging
Till I feel something

Elbow deep inside the borderline
Show me that you love me
And that we belong together
Shoulder deep within the borderline
Relax
Turn around and take my hand

He had a lot to say
He had a lot of nothing to say
We'll miss him
We'll miss him
He had a lot to say
He had a lot of nothing to say
We'll miss him
We'll miss him
We are going to miss him
We are going to miss him

So long
We wish you well
You told us how you weren't afraid to die
Well then, so long
Don't cry
Or feel too down
Not all martyrs see divinity
But at least you tried

Standing above the crowd
He had a voice that was strong and loud
We'll miss him
We'll miss him
Ranting and pointing his finger
At everything but his heart
We'll miss him
We'll miss him
We are going to miss him
We are going to miss him

No way
To recall
What it was
That you had said to me
Like I care at all
So loud
You sure could yell
You took a stand on every little thing
And so loud

Warn while some child might chill, nine-one-two
I'm too smart when you're invisible by the bone symbol on you
So he bashes his skull through the window while looking out to the sea
Like torment of my ego
And we're amused by this

Standing above the crowd
He had a voice so strong and loud
And I swallowed his facade
Cuz I'm so eager to identify with
Someone above the ground
Someone who seemed to feel the same
Someone prepared to lead the way
With someone who would die for me

Will you?
Will you now?
Would you die for me?
Don't you fucking lie.

Don't you step out of line
Don't you step out of line
Don't you step out of line
Don't you fucking lie.

You've claimed all this time
That you would die for me
Why then are you
So surprised
When you hear
Your own eulogy?

He had a lot to say
He had a lot of nothing to say
He had a lot to say
He had a lot of nothing to say

Come down
Get off your fuckin' cross
We need the fuckin' space
To nail the next fool martyr

To ascend you must die
You must be crucified
For your sins and your lies
Goodbye!

What's coming through is alive
What's holding up is a mirror
But what's singing songs is a snake
Looking to turn this piss to wine

They're both totally void of hate
But killing me just the same

The snake behind me hisses
What my damage could have been
My blood before me begs me
Open up my heart again

And I feel this coming over
Like a storm again
Considerately

Venomous voice
Tempts me
Drains me
Bleeds me,
Leaves me cracked and empty
Drags me down
Like some sweet gravity

The snake behind me hisses
What my damage could have been
My blood before me begs me
Open up my heart again.

And I feel this coming over
Like a storm again

I am too connected to you to
Slip away
To fade away
Days away I still feel you
Touching me
Changing me
And considerately killing me
And considerately killing me
And considerately killing me
And considerately killing me

Without the skin
Beneath the storm
Under these tears
The walls came down

And the snake is drowned and
As I look in his eyes
My fear begins to fade
Recalling all of those times

I could have cried then
I should have cried then

And as the walls come down and
As I look in your eyes
My fear begins to fade
Recalling all of the times
I have died
And will die
It's all right
I don't mind
I don't mind
I don't mind

I am too connected to you to
Slip away, to fade away
Days away I still feel you
Touching me
Changing me
And considerately killing me
And considerately killing me
And considerately killing me
And considerately killing me

[Instrumental]

Join In my
Join in my child
And listen
Digging through
My old numb shadow

My shadow's
shedding skin and
I've been picking
Scabs again
I'm down
Digging through
My old muscles
Looking for a clue

I've been crawling on my belly
Clearing out what could've been
I've been wallowing in my own confused
And insecure delusions
For a piece to cross me over
Or a word to guide me in
I wanna feel the changes coming down
I wanna know what I've been hiding

In my shadow
My shadow
Change is coming through
My shadow
My shadow's shedding skin
I've been picking
My scabs again

I've been crawling on my belly
Clearing out what could've been
I've been wallowing in my own chaotic
And insecure delusions

I wanna feel the change consume me
Feel the outside turning in
I wanna feel the metamorphosis and
Cleansing I've endured within

My shadow
My shadow
Change is coming
Now is my time
Listen to my muscle memory
Contemplate what I've been clinging to
Forty-six and two ahead of me

I choose to live and to
Grow
Take and give and to
Move
Learn and love and to
Cry
Kill and die and to
Be paranoid and to
Lie
Hate and fear and to
Do what it takes to move through

I choose to live and to
Lie
Kill and give and to
Die
Learn and love and to
Do what it takes to step through

See my shadow changing
Stretching up and over me
Soften this old armor
Hoping I can clear the way
By stepping through my shadow
Coming out the other side
Step into the shadow
Forty six and two are just ahead of me

Figlio di puttana, sai che tu sei un pezzo di merda?

Hm?
You think you're cool, right?
Hm?
Hm?
When you kicked out people out of your house

I tell you this
One of three Americans die of cancer,
you know
Asshole
You're gonna be one of those

I don't have the courage
to kick your ass directly
Don't have enough courage for that
I could, you know

You know you're gonna have another accident?
You know I'm involved with black magic?
Fuck you
Die
Bastard
You think you're so cool, hm?
Asshole

And if I ever see your fucking face around
In Europe or Italy
Well I'll -- That time I'm gonna kick your ass
Fuck you
Fucking Americans
Yankee
You're gonna die outta cancer
I promise.

Bang bang

No one does what you did to me
You wanna know something? Fuck you
I want your balls smashed
Eat shit
Bastard

Pezzo di merda, figlio di puttana
I hope somebody in your family dies soon

Crepa, pezzo di merda, e vai
a sucare cazzi su un aereo!

Son of a bitch
Do you know you are a piece of shit?
Piece of shit
Son of a bitch
Die
Piece of shit
And go suck dicks on a plane!

I met a boy wearing Vans 501s
And a
Dope Beastie tee
Nipple rings
And
New tattoos
That claimed that he
Was OGT
Back from '92
The first EP

And in between
Sips of Coke
He told me that
He thought we
Were sellin' out
Layin' down
Suckin' up
To the man

Well now I've
Got some
Advice for you
Little buddy
Before you point the finger
You should know that
I'm the man
And if I'm the man
Then you're the man
And he's the man as well so you can
Point that fuckin' finger up your ass

All you know about me is
What I've sold you
Dumb fuck
I sold out long before you ever
Heard my name
I sold my soul to make a record
Dipshit
And you bought one!

So I've got some
Advice for you
Little buddy
Before you point your finger
You should know that
I'm the man
If I'm the fuckin' man
Then you're the
Fuckin' man as well
So you can
Point that fuckin' finger up your ass

All you know about me is what I've sold you
Dumb fuck
I sold out long before you ever heard my name
I sold my soul to make a record
Dipshit
And you bought one

All you read and
Wear or see and
Hear on TV
Is a product
Begging
For your
Fatass
Dirty
Dollar

Shut up and

Buy
Buy
Buy
My new record
Buy
Buy
Buy
Send more money
Fuck you, buddy
Fuck you, buddy
Fuck you, buddy
Fuck you, buddy

[Instrumental]

What was it like to see
The face of your own stability
Suddenly look away
Leaving you with the dead and hopeless?

Eleven and she was gone
Eleven is when we waved goodbye
Eleven is standing still
Waiting for me to free him
By coming home

Moving me with a sound
Opening me within a gesture
Drawing me down and in
Showing me where it all began
Eleven

It took so long to realize that
You hold the light
That's been leading me back home

Under a dead Ohio sky
Eleven has been and will be waiting
Defending his light
And wondering...
Where the hell have I been?
Sleeping, lost, and numb
So glad that I have found you
I am wide awake and
Heading home

Hold your light,
Eleven
Lead me through
Each gentle step by step
by inch by loaded memory

I'll move to heal
As soon as pain allows so we can
Reunite and both move on together

Hold your light
Eleven
Lead me through each gentle step by step
By inch by loaded memory
'Till one and one are one, eleven
So glow, child, glow

I'm heading back home

I saw the gap again today
While you were begging me to stay
Take care not to make me enter
If I do we both may disappear

You know that I will choke
Until I swallow
Choke this infant here before me
What is this but my reflection?
Who am I to judge and strike you down?

But you're
Pushing and shoving me
Pushing and shoving me
But you're
Pushing and shoving me
Pushing and shoving me
But you're
Pushing and shoving me
Pushing and shoving me
But you're
Pushing and shoving me
Pushing and shoving me
You still love me
You still love me
But you didn't need
To pushit on me
You still love me
You still love me
But you didn't need
To pushit on me

Rest your trigger on my finger
bang my head upon the fault line
Take care not to make me enter
'cause if I do we both may disappear

But you're
Pushing and shoving me
Pushing and shoving me
But you're
Pushing and shoving me
Pushing and shoving me
You still love me
You still love me
But you didn't need to
Pushit on me
You're pushing and shoving me
You're pushing and shoving me

Slipping back into the gap again
I'm alive when you're touching me
Alive when you're shoving me down
But I'd trade it all
For just a little bit of
Piece of mind

Put me somewhere I don't wanna be
Seeing someplace I don't wanna see
Never wanna see that place again

Saw that gap again today
As you were begging me to stay
Managed to push myself away
And you, as well

If, when I say I may fade like a sigh if I stay
You minimize my movement anyway
I must persuade you another way

There's no love in fear

Staring down the hole again
Hands upon my back again
Survival is my only friend
Terrified of what may come

Just remember
I will always love you
As I claw your fucking throat away
It will end no other way
It will end no other way

[Instrumental]

Some say the end is near
Some say we'll see armageddon soon
I certainly hope we will
I sure could use a vacation from this

Bullshit three ring
Circus sideshow of

Freaks here in this
Hopeless fucking
Hole we call LA
The only way to fix it is to
Flush it all away
Any fucking time
Any fucking day
Learn to swim
I'll see you down in
Arizona bay

Fret for your figure and
Fret for your latte and
Fret for your hairpiece and
Fret for your lawsuit and
Fret for your prozac and
Fret for your pilot and
Fret for your contract and
Fret for your car

It's a
Bullshit
Three ring
Circus sideshow of

Freaks here in this hopeless fucking
Hole we call LA
The only way to fix it is to
Flush it all away
Any fucking time
Any fucking day
Learn to swim
I'll see you down in
Arizona bay

Some say a comet will fall from the sky
Followed by meteor showers and tidal waves
Followed by faultlines that cannot sit still
Followed by millions of dumbfounded dipshits

Some say the end is near
Some say we'll see armageddon soon
I certainly hope we will
Cuz I sure could use a
Vacation from this
Stupid shit
Silly shit
Stupid shit

One great big festering neon distraction
I've a suggestion to keep you all occupied

Learn to swim
Learn to swim
Learn to swim

Mom's gonna fix it all soon
Mom's comin' round to put it
Back the way it ought to be

Learn to swim
Learn to swim
Learn to swim

Fuck L Ron Hubbard and
Fuck all his clones
Fuck all those gun-toting
Hip gangster wannabes

Learn to swim

Fuck retro anything
Fuck your tattoos
Fuck all you junkies and
Fuck your short memory

Fuck smiley glad-hands
With hidden agendas
Fuck these dysfunctional
Insecure actresses

Learn to swim

Cuz I'm praying for rain
And I'm praying for tidal waves
I wanna see the ground give way
I wanna watch it all go down
Mom, please flush it all away
I wanna watch it go right in and down
I wanna watch it go right in
Watch you flush it all away

Time to bring it down again
Don't just call me pessimist
Try and read between the lines

I can't imagine why you wouldn't
Welcome any change, my friend

I wanna see it come down
Bring it down
Suck it down
Flush it down

[Instrumental]

"See, I think drugs have done some good thinks for us, I really do
And if you don't believe drugs have done good things for us, do me a favor
Go home tonight and take all your albums, all your tapes, and all your CDs and burn 'em
'Cause you know what?
The musicians who've made all that great music that enhanced your lives throughought the years...
Real fucking high on drugs"

"Today a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration
That we are all one consciesness experiencing itself subjectively
There is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are all the imagination of ourselves
Here's Tom with the weather"

"It's not a war on drugs, it's a war on personal freedom, that's what it is, okay?
Keep that in mind at all times, thank you"

Dreaming of that face again
It's bright and blue and shimmering
Grinning wide
And comforting me
With it's three warm and wild eyes

On my back and tumbling
Down that hole and back again
Rising up
And wiping the webs and the dew
From my withered eye

In... Out... In... Out... In... Out...

A child's rhyme stuck in my head
It said that life is but a dream
I've spent so many years in question
To find I've known this all along

So good to see you
I've missed you so much
So glad it's over
I've missed you so much
Came out to watch you play
Why are you running?

Shrouding all the ground around me
Is this holy crow above me
Black as holes within a memory
And blue as our new second sun
I stick my hand into his shadow
To pull the pieces from the sand
Which I attempt to reassemble
To see just who I might have been
I do not recognize the vessel
But the eyes seem so familiar
Like phosphorescent desert buttons
Singing one familiar song

So good to see you
I've missed you so much
So glad it's over
I've missed you so much
Came out to watch you play
Why are you running away?
Came out to watch you play
Why are you running away?


Prying open my third eye
Prying open my third eye
Prying open my third eye
Prying open my third eye

So good to see you once again
I thought that you were hiding
And you thought that I had run away
Chasing the tail of dogma
I opened my eye
I opened my eye
I opened my eye and there we were
I opened my eye
I opened my eye
I opened my eye and there we were

So good to see you once again
I thought that you were hiding from me
And you thought that I had run away
Chasing a trail of smoke and reason

Prying open my third eye
Prying open my third eye
Prying open my third eye
Prying open my third eye
Prying open my third eye
Prying open my third eye
Prying open my third eye
Prying open my third eye
Prying open my third eye
Prying open my third eye
