I just got a new medication
After years of hibernation
I can walk outside for the first time
And let the sunshine touch my head

Never went an hour without
Mutilating from the inside out
Now everything's fine for the first time
I feelin' like I'm born again

I try but can't explain it - I say too much
I feel so liberated - feels like love
It's so nice to be normal - to be normal for a change

I used to stare up at the sky
And watch the little worm in my eye
But now all I wanna do is look at you
And fill your darkest room with light

I try but can't explain it - I say too much
I feel so liberated - feels like love
It's so nice to be normal - to be normal for a change.
It's so nice to be normal - but it still feels kinda strange.

The noise has left my head
The voice inside is dead
Now I don't hear a sound.
Never knew silence could ever be so loud.

It's so nice to be normal - to be normal
It's so nice to be normal - but it still feels kinda strange.

Your left hand got the finger on the button
Your right forgot how to feel
Your head don't know what either one is doin'
Ya turn nothin' into such a big deal

I've been gettin' all the signals and the signs
And I've been watchin' how ya cheat and steal
And then you try to spin my name into a lie
Now won't anybody tell me what is real.

Are you listening - do you hear a thing
Even through your own shit so deafening
Up on my own feet - you can't make me drop
Try to pull me down - I'll still be on top
Now you started something that you can't stop.

There's a fine line and you think you can cross it
Rollin' along on your entitlement wheel
Who will remember you for self-importance?
At least I got to know what is real.

Well you can keep all your dirty little secrets
Of all the scapegoats you forced to kneel
I saw the world through Jesus-colored glasses
Now won't anybody tell me what is real.

Today I lost my poetry, intensity
Somewhere in-between entropy, atrophy
In quiet harsh, this grind
Of distract left my mind
I spit dust, but I feel fine

Another pill goes down

Today I found my sanity, empathy
Just underneath simplicity, memory
Thus with a kiss I die
I'll let go, you hold tight
This change is not goodbye

Sins thrown in the sea floating away now
Waiting and hoping so far away now
Eyes keep on burning, heads keep on turning around
They turn around

I stare into obscurity in front of me
I'd rather fight the salty breeze blinding me
Than look at what's behind
I've washed it from my mind
I've washed it from my mind

Sins thrown in the sea floating away now
Waiting and hoping so far away now
Eyes keep on burning, heads keep on turning around
They turn around

I just turned 19 for the 16th time
Posing with bottles of the finest wine
I'm only seen with people just like me
So rich that we get everything for free
Spouting politics from my limosine
Because you care - About the product in my hair
About the clothes I'm gonna wear
To the event where we congratulate ourselves

I wanna be a rockstar for a day - I want my 15 minutes of fame
But I've got face that's made for radio - And my body's a disgrace
I wanna be a rockstar for a day - I wanna get botox in LA
'Cause I've got a face that's made for radio - And a voice that's made for... I don't know
But you'll love me anyway

So tell me tell me tell me - am i great?
Will you tattoo my CD cover on your face?
So do you wanna win a date with me?
We can talk all night about me me me? me?
Sitting by candlelight telling stories about by care
Because you care - About the product in my hair
About the clothes I'm gonna wear
To the event where we congratulate ourselves

I wanna be a rockstar for a day - I want my 15 minutes of fame
But I've got face that's made for radio - And I never could get laid
So I wanna be a rockstar for a day - I'm gonna get a pornstar for a date
But I've got a face that's made for radio - And a voice that's made for... I don't know
But you'll love me anyway

All of my entourage can join my fanclub membership
And get a year free for 1 friend & my autographed guitar pick
As for the ugly rumors they're all started by my publicist
And yes it's true - I was born on the moon and have 3000 kids
My contribution to humanity is saying I'm part of it
And when I sneeze it's history - in a century you'll read about it
Because you care - so let's congratulate ourselves.

I wanna be a rockstar for a day I want my 15 minutes of fame
But I've got face that's made for radio - And my body's a disgrace
So I wanna be a rockstar for a day - Got implants everywhere except my brain
'Cause I've got a face that's made for radio - And a voice that's made for... I don't know
And my songs are kinda lame - Tomorrow you'll forget my name
But you'll love me for today - But you'll love me anyway
Yeah ya love me anyway

Sometimes I'm feeling like, there's something in the air
That kicks us up into a fight - why do we go there
Is it biology or fucked up chemistry
The whole world seems to be caught in its own misery
Or is it that I only see reflections of me
And that I think there's nothing beyond my line of trees
I think it's time to let it go , yeah I know...
'Cause it's too short, this thing called life - and I need you in mine

I'm spillin' over with some much love for the whole world to take that it blows my mind
Yeah I'm overloaded - I'm overflowin' - it feels like my soul is pouring out my eyes
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oooh, yeah
Take and take as much as you can - it's all that's left of me

Ooooh, ooooh, yeah

I fly under the radar, just skimming the line
Between never and forever, between earth and sky
But when I think about it, it washes over me
And pulls me to the dividing line - that's where I sink
Down to the ocean floor, still sad from the last tour
When there were devils amongst - still I go back for more
Maybe it's time to just let it go , yeah I know...
'Cause it's too short, this thing called life - and I need you in mine

I'm spillin' over with some much love for the whole world to take that it blows my mind
Yeah I'm overloaded - I'm overflowin' - it feels like my soul is pouring out my eyes
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oooh, yeah
Take and take as much as you can - it's all that's left of me

You're such a pretty pretty pretty girl
Stuck in a pretty pretty shitty world
But girl, you were meant for me
You're so pretty ugly

Ya got such pretty pretty stupid friends
You know they're gonna screw ya in the end
So run away with me
We'll be pretty ugly

So let's drive until we reach the sun
Don't say goodbye to anyone
You coulda shoulda woulda made things fine
But now you're pretty ugly and you're mine
You're pretty ugly and you're mi-mi-mine

Ya really got a pretty fucked up life
Someday you're gonna be my fucked up wife
We match so perfectly
I'm pretty you're ugly

We got nothin' but the rest of time
If I could I'd spend it all holding you tight
Cause no other girl can make me feel so fine
And now you're pretty ugly and you're mine
You're pretty ugly and you're mi-mi-mine

You're such a pretty pretty pretty girl
Stuck in a pretty pretty shitty world
We're pretty ugly - just like everything

Good luck in the afterlife - don't forget to bring your suntan lotion
Good luck in the afterlife - don't forget to bring an ice cool ocean
Thank you for the vision of truth - you've shown me the world like I'd never seen
How right and wrong are clear as day - but the color of justice is green

Good luck in the afterlife - don't forget to bring what ya got paid to
Good luck in the afterlife - don't forget the pictures of those poisoned by you
Thank you for making me stare into the dark and focus on the ugliest scene
Where right and wrong are too clear to see and all you're looking for is green

Good luck in the afterlife - don't forget to rot in your empty shell
Good luck in the afterlife - don't forget the way you made this life Hell
Thank you for the taste of blood pressed from the life between my teeth
When right and wrong were chewed away - and you left the taste of grief

Remember all the people you showed no love to
Remember all the people you drove to hate you
Remember all the people you were a disease to
Remember all the people you wouldn't say please to
Remember all the people that offered compassion
Remember all the people that you turned your back on
Remember when you sold your last decency
When you're done, remember me

Why do we go so far
Till it's too far to turn back
When we take it so far
We lose so much more
We lose it all

Stop me if I go too far
It's so hard to turn back
Don't let me take it all
Away from you
From you

So don't let go now
Please show me how
To stop this breaking away
From you

There's more to you than what I see
There's more to you than I can be
There's something, that something
That makes me feel like I'm more

There's more than life inside your heart
There's more than music in your song
There's something, that something
That makes me feel like I'm more

Than I am when I'm with you
A better man when I'm with you
I love who I am when I'm with you
But I love you more than you could ever know
So much more than I could ever show
How much higher we can make it go

There's so much God behind your eyes
They save me and lift me so high
There's something, that something
That makes me feel like I'm more

Than I am when I'm with you
A better man when I'm with you
I love who I am when I'm with you
But I love you more than you could ever know
So much more than I could ever show
How much higher we can make it go

I miss me
Miss the noise
Miss the colored dreams
And rings
And screams
Miss the pain of love and tragedy
It's time to decide

How should I live each tomorrow - like the first day or the last
With silence in the sunshine or music in the darkness
Either way I'll be ok as long as when I get there I'm with you

You make me wanna live again
But what is life without knowing who I am
It's time to decide

How should I live each tomorrow - like the first day or the last
With silence in the sunshine or music in the darkness
This peace inside is killing me - I think it might be time to leave
Feel the floodgate start to break and crash away the wall
And I awake with you

The first sight in these eyes I want is you

I wanna tell ya what's on my mind
But I'm hopin' baby you can read between the lines
I got this vibe that I hope aint true
But the things ya say don't line up with the things you do
I'm always waitin' for your shit to pass
And it's gettin' like I'm livin' life inside your ass

Ya think you're keepin' me in the dark
But I'm seein' more more more than I want to
Ya want me in a place where I can't read your face
But I'm gettin' what ya got deep inside you
You may act like everything's alright
But down here at the bottom it's gettin' kinda tight

You don't listen to a word I say
I'm just a piece of something you keep locked away
Ya pull me out when you need a man
But I want more than to kill your bugs and lift your bags
Yeah, you keep makin', I keep takin' out your trash
And it's gettin' really crowded up inside your ass

I wanna tell ya what's on my mind...

I got your asshole around my neck
Still I'd rather suffocate than smell what's on your breath
You're so retentive and I'm in the queue
Just waitin' for your heart to come passin' through
But the more I stir it up the more it stinks up fast
And it's gettin' hard to breathe up here inside your ass

I wanna tell ya what's on my mind...

I don't know how long I'm gonna last
I need somethin' to hold, not a bunch of gas
I'm down here waitin' and it's so frustratin'
Guess this is what it's like to live inside your ass
Yeah, you know where to find me - up inside your ass
I don't know how long I'm gonna last

I can hear the sound again
Voices dancing in my head
Smile wide - drowning slowly as the echoes rise

Angels pounding at my door
They want to take away my war
I won't let them carve away the edges anymore
No more...

I can feel my face changing
Every day must have its night
Every curse is a blessing
Like a shadow in the light
Life is beautiful and crazy
Isn't it just like you and I
It's alright - like a shadow in the light

Her ear pressed to my chest
She can almost hear my breath
Don't you cry - it's ok - I chose it all this time...

Every story has an ending
Even though words never die
Every curse is a blessing
Like a shadow in the light
Winter won't last forever
And neither will I
It's alright...

Thank you God for all these choices
In the boundaries of your game
Through the silence and the voices
All my love will never change
It was so nice to be normal
To be normal for a change
So strange...
It was so nice to be normal - but what's normal, anyway?

Thank you for being such a friend
You're by my side through thick and thin
And when these days come to an end
I know I'll be with you again
For all the times we're up and down
You know you never let me down
We've turned the page so many times
There's still so much more left to write

Thank you for all you let me be
And for euphoric memories
For the 15 minutes of fame
And all the pretty ugly things
For filling empty rooms with light
And for the sins thrown in the sea
For flowing in and out my eyes
And the taste of life between my teeth

I'll say it now while I still have the opportunity to breathe
I suffocated for so long and then you gave my heart its beat
We may be oceans far apart but deep inside you're still with me
I know we'll always be together every time I hear you sing...

A spinning world that never stops
The pushin' pushin' till we drop
The miracle of endless days
Music that never goes away
It keeps my spirit livin' on
With you in every song
So thank you and goodnight
Till I see you again on the other side...
