"Papercut"

Why does it feel like night today?
Something in here's not right today
Why am I so uptight today?
Paranoia's all I got left
I don't know what stressed me first
Or how the pressure was fed
but I know just what it feels like To have a voice in the back of my head
It's like a face that I hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes A
face watches every time I lie
A face that laughs every time I fall
(And watches everything)
So I know that when it's time to sink or swim
That the face inside is hearing me right underneath my skin
It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin
I know I've got a face in me
Points out all my mistakes to me
You've got a face on the inside too and
Your paranoia's probably worse
I don't know what set me off first
but I know what I can't stand
Everybody acts like the fact of the matter is I can't add up to what you can
but Everybody has a face that they hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face watches every time they lie
A face that laughs every time they fall
(And watches everything)
So you know that when it's time to sink or swim
That the face inside is watching you too right inside your skin
It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin
It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin
The face inside is right beneath your skin
The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me
It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin
It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin

One Step Closer
I cannot take this anymore
I'm saying everything I've said before
All these words they make no sense
I find bliss in ignorance

Less I hear the less you'll say
But you'll find that out anyway
Just like before...
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the edge And I'm about to break
I find the answers aren't so clear
Wish I could find a way to disappear
All these THOUGHTS they make no sense
I find bliss in ignorance
Nothing seems to go away
Over and over again
Just like before...
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe Cause I'm one step closer to the edge And I'm about to break
Shut up when I'm talking to you
I'm about to break
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe Cause I'm one step closer to the edge and Im about to BREAK!

"With You"

I woke up in a dream today To the cold of the static and put my cold feet on the floor
Forgot all about yesterday
Remembering I'm pretending to be where I'm not anymore
A little taste of hypocrisy
And I'm left in the wake of the mistake
slow to react
Even though you're so close to me You're still so distant And I can't bring you back
It's true the way I feel
Was promised by your face
The sound of your voice
Painted on my memories
Even if you're not with me I'm with you You
Now I see
Keeping everything inside You Now I see
Even when I close my eyes
I hit you and you hit me back
We fall to the floor the rest of the day stands still
Fine line between this and that When things go wrong I pretend the past isn't real
Now I'm trapped in this memory
And I'm left in the wake of the mistake
slow to react
Even though you're close to me
You're still so distant
And I can't bring you back
It's true the way I feel
Was promised by your face
The sound of your voice
Painted on my memories
Even if you're not with me I'm with you You
Now I see / Keeping everything inside You
Now I see
Even when I close my eyes
No, no matter how far we've come
I can't wait to see tomorrow
No, no matter how far we've come I
I can't wait to see tomorrow With you You
Now I see
Keeping everything inside You
Now I see Even when I close my eyes You
Now I see Keeping everything inside You
Now I see
Even when I close my eyes

"Crawling"

Crawling in my skin These wounds they will not heal Fear is how I fall Confusing what is real There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface Consuming, confusing This lack of self control I fear is never ending Controlling, I can't seem To find myself again My walls are closing in (Without a sense of confidence and I'm convinced That it's just too much pressure to take) I've felt this way before So insecure Crawling in my skin These wounds they will not heal Fear is how I fall Confusing what is real Discomfort, endlessly has pulled itself upon me Distracting, reacting Against my will I stand beside my own reflection It's haunting how I can't seem... To find myself again My walls are closing in (Without a sense of confidence and I'm convinced That it's just too much pressure to take) I've felt this way before So insecure Crawling in my skin These wounds they will not heal Fear is how I fall Confusing what is real Crawling in my skin These wounds they will not heal Fear is how I fall Confusing, confusing what is real There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface Consuming, confusing what is real This lack of self control I fear is never ending Controlling, confusing what is real


"Runaway"

Graffiti decorations Underneath a sky of dust A constant wave of tension On top of broken trust The lessons that you taught me I learn were never true Now I find myself in question They point the finger at me again Guilty by association You point the finger at me again I wanna run away Never say goodbye I wanna know the truth Instead of wondering why I wanna know the answers No more lies I wanna shut the door And open up my mind Paper bags and angry voices Under a sky of dust Another wave of tension Has more than filled me up All my talk of taking action These words were never true Now I find myself in question They point the finger at me again Guilty by association You point the finger at me again I wanna run away Never say goodbye I wanna know the truth Instead of wondering why I wanna know the answers No more lies I wanna shut the door And open up my mind Gonna run away and never say goodbye Gonna run away, gonna run away Gonna run away, gonna run away Gonna run away and never wonder why Gonna run away, gonna run away Gonna run away, gonna run away Gonna run away and open up my mind Gonna run away, gonna run away Gonna run away, gonna run away Gonna run away, gonna run away Gonna run away, gonna run away I wanna run away Never say goodbye I wanna know the truth Instead of wondering why I wanna know the answers No more lies I wanna shut the door And open up my mind I wanna run away And open up my mind I wanna run away And open up my mind I wanna run away And open up my mind I wanna run away And open up my mind


"By Myself"

What do I do to ignore them behind me? Do I follow my instincts blindly? Do I hide my pride from these bad dreams And give in to sad thoughts that are maddening? Do I sit here and try to stand it? Or do I try to catch them red-handed? Do I trust some and get fooled by phoniness Or do I trust nobody and live in loneliness? Because I can't hold on when I'm stretched so thin I make the right moves but I'm lost within I put on my daily facade but then I just end up getting hurt again By myself (myself) I ask why, but in my mind I find I can't rely on myself I ask why, but in my mind I find I can't rely on myself I can't hold on To what I want when I'm stretched so thin It's all too much to take in I can't hold on To anything watching everything spin With thoughts of failure sinking in If I Turn my back I'm defenseless And to go blindly seems senseless If I hide my pride and let it all go on then they'll Take from me till everything is gone If I let them go I'll be outdone But if I try to catch them I'll be outrun If I'm killed by the questions like a cancer Then I'll be buried in the silence of the answer (By myself) How do you think I've lost so much I'm so afraid I'm out of touch How do you expect I will know what to do When all I know is what you tell me to Don't you know I can't tell you how to make it go No matter what I do how hard I try I can't seem to convince myself why I'm stuck on the outside I can't hold on To what I want when I'm stretched so thin It's all too much to take in I can't hold on To anything watching everything spin With thoughts of failure sinking in I can't hold on To what I want when I'm stretched so thin It's all too much to take in I can't hold on To anything watching everything spin With thoughts of failure sinking in


"In The End"

It starts with one One thing I don't know why It doesn't even matter how hard you try Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme To explain in due time All I know Time is a valuable thing Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings Watch it count down to the end of the day The clock ticks life away It's so unreal Didn't look out below Watch the time go right out the window Trying to hold on but didn't even know Wasted it all just to Watch you go I kept everything inside and even though I tried it all fell apart What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when I tried I tried so hard And got so far But in the end It doesn't even matter I had to fall To lose it all But in the end It doesn't even matter One thing I don't know why It doesn't even matter how hard you try Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme To remind myself how I tried so hard In spite of the way you were mocking me Acting like I was part of your property Remembering all the times you've fought with me I'm surprised it got so (far) Things aren't the way they were before You wouldn't even recognize me anymore Not that you knew me back then But it all comes back to me In the end You kept everything inside and even though I tried it all fell apart What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when I tried I tried so hard And got so far But in the end It doesn't even matter I had to fall And lose it all But in the end It doesn't even matter I put my trust in you Pushed as far as I can go And for all this There's only one thing you should know I put my trust in you Pushed as far as I can go And for all this There's only one thing you should know I tried so hard And got so far But in the end It doesn't even matter I had to fall And lose it all But in the end It doesn't even matter


I watch how the Moon sits in the sky in the dark night Shining with the light from the sun The sun doesn't give life to the moon to assuming The moon's going to owe it one It makes me think of how you act to me you do Favors and then rapidly you just Turn around and start asking me about Things you want back from me I'm sick of the tension sick of the hunger Sick of you acting like I owe you this Find another place to feed your greed While I find a place to rest I want to be in another place I hate when you say you don't understand (You'll see it's not meant to be) I want to be in the energy, not with the enemy A place for my head Maybe someday I'll be just like you and Step on people like you do and run Away the people I thought I knew I remember back then who you were You used to be calm used to be strong Used to be generous but you should've known that you'd Wear out your welcome now you see How quiet it is all alone I'm so Sick of the tension sick of the hunger Sick of you acting like I owe you this Find another place to feed your greed While I find a place to rest I'm so Sick of the tension sick of the hunger Sick of you acting like I owe you this Find another place to feed your greed While I find a place to rest I want to be in another place I hate when you say you don't understand (You'll see it's not meant to be) I want to be in the energy, not with the enemy A place for my head You try to take the best of me Go away You try to take the best of me Go away You try to take the best of me Go away You try to take the best of me Go away I want to be in another place I hate when you say you don't understand (You'll see it's not meant to be) I want to be in the energy, not with the enemy A place for my head Shut up


"Forgotten"

From the top to the bottom Bottom to top I stop At the core I've forgotten In the middle of my thoughts Taken far from my safety The picture is there The memory won't escape me But why should I care From the top to the bottom Bottom to top I stop At the core I've forgotten In the middle of my thoughts Taken far from my safety The picture is there The memory won't escape me But why should I care There's a place so dark you can't see the end (Skies cock back) and shock that which can't defend The rain then sends dripping an acidic question Forcefully, the power of suggestion Then with the eyes tightly shut looking thought the rust and rot And dust a spot of light floods the floor And pours over the rusted world of pretend The eyes ease open and it's dark again From the top to the bottom Bottom to top I stop At the core I've forgotten In the middle of my thoughts Taken far from my safety The picture is there The memory won't escape me But why should I care In the memory you'll find me Eyes burning up The darkness holding me tightly Until the sun rises up Moving all around screaming of the ups and downs Pollution manifested in perpetual sound The wheels go round and the sunset creeps past the Street lamps, chain-link and concrete A little piece of paper with a picture drawn floats On down the street till the wind is gone The memory now is like the picture was then When the paper's crumpled up it can't be perfect again From the top to the bottom Bottom to top I stop At the core I've forgotten In the middle of my thoughts Taken far from my safety The picture is there The memory won't escape me But why should I care From the top to the bottom Bottom to top I stop At the core I've forgotten In the middle of my thoughts Taken far from my safety The picture is there The memory won't escape me But why should I care In the memory you'll find me Eyes burning up The darkness holding me tightly Until the sun rises up Now you got me caught in the act You bring the thought back I'm telling you that I see it right through you In the memory you'll find me Eyes burning up The darkness holding me tightly Until the sun rises up In the memory you will find me Eyes burning up The darkness holding me tightly Until the sun rises up


"Pushing Me Away"
I've lied to you
The same way that I always do
This is the last smile That I'll fake for the sake of being with you (Everything falls apart Even the people who never frown Eventually break down) The sacrifice of hiding in a lie (Everything has to end You'll soon find we're out of time To watch it all unwind) The sacrifice is never knowing Why I never walked away Why I played myself this way Now I see your testing me pushes me away Why I never walked away Why I played myself this way Now I see your testing me pushes me away I've tried like you To do everything you wanted too This is the last time I'll take the blame for the sake of being with you (Everything falls apart Even the people who never frown Eventually break down) The sacrifice of hiding in a lie (Everything has to end You'll soon find we're out of time To watch it all unwind) The sacrifice is never knowing Why I never walked away Why I played myself this way Now I see your testing me pushes me away Why I never walked away Why I played myself this way Now I see your testing me pushes me away The sacrifice of hiding in a lie The sacrifice is never knowing Why I never walked away Why I played myself this way Now I see your testing me pushes me away Why I never walked away Why I played myself this way Now I see your testing me pushes me away Pushes me away

[Carousel]

She can't hide no matter how hard she tries
Her secret disguise behind her lies
And at night she cries away her pride
With eyes shut tight, staring at her inside
All her friends know why she cant sleep at night
All her family asking if she's all right
All she wants to do is get rid of this hell
Well all she's gotta do is stop kidding herself

She can only fool herself for so long
She can only fool herself for so long
She can only fool herself for so long

Im too weak to face me
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me

When it comes to how to live his life
He cant be told
Says he's got it all under control
Thinks he knows its not a problem hes stuck with
But in reality, it'd be a problem to just quit
An addict and he cant hold the reigns
The pain is worse cause his friends have it the same
Tries to slow down the problem he's got
But cant get off the carousel
Until he makes it stop

He can only fool himself for so long
He can only fool himself for so long
He can only fool himself for so long

Im too weak to face me
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me

Try to fly with the wings I gave you
Try to do what you believe and I'll save you
Try to fly with the wings I gave you
Try to do what you believe and I'll save you

I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me

[Technique]

You must exercise the proper technique

[Step Up]

Yo
Watch as the room rocks
Mentally moonwalk
Mixed media slang
Banging in your boom box verbal violence
Lyrical stylist
In a time when rock hip hop rhymes are childish
You cant tempt me with rhymes that are empty
Rapping to a beat doesn't make you an emcee
With your lack of skill and facility
You're killing me
And a DJ in the group just for credibility
I heard that some of you are getting help with your rhymes
You're not an emcee if someone else writes your lines
And rapping over rock doesn't make you a pioneer
Cause rock and hip hop have collaborated for years
But now they're getting randomly mixed and matched up
All after a fast buck and all the tracks suck
So how does it stack up - None of it's real
You want to be an emcee you've got to study the skill

Who can rock a rhyme like this
Bring it to you every time like this
Who can rock a rhyme like this
Step, step up, step, step up

So you pick up a pen and write yourself a new identity
But mentally you dont have the hip hop energy
With a tendency to make up stories
Sounding like the only hip hop you've heard is top 40
And your record company is completely missing it
All the kids are dissing it for not being legitimate
So in a battle you can't hack it
React with whack shit
And get smacked with verbal back flips
Get your ass kicked by fabulous battle catalysts
It's taken decades for emcees to establish this
You're new to hip hop and welcome if your serious
But not on the mic
Leave that to the experienced

Using the waves of sound the true master
paralyzes his opponents, leaving him vulnerable to attack

Who can rock a rhyme like this
Bring it to you every time like this
Who can rock a rhyme like this
step, step up,step, step up
Who can rock a rhyme like this
Bring it to you every time like this
Who can rock a rhyme like this
step, step up,step, step up

After years of pain staking research by the world's
leading sound scientists, we here at the sound
institute have invented a reliable audio weapons system.
Actual movement of musical sound in space used to
carefully attack and neutralize the cellular structure of
the human body, and the question must be asked.

Who can rock a rhyme like this
Bring it to you every time like this
Who can rock a rhyme like this
step, step up,step, step up
Who can rock a rhyme like this
Bring it to you every time like this
Who can rock a rhyme like this
step, step up,step, step up

[And One]

Where should I start
Disjointed heart
I've got no commitment
To my own flesh and blood
Left all alone
Far from my home
No one to hear me, to heal my ill heart, I
Keep it locked up inside
Cannot express
To the point I've regressed
(If?) angers a gift, then I guess Ive been blessed, I

Keep it locked up inside
Keep my distance from your lies

Its too late to love me now
You helped me to show me
Its too late to love me now
You dont take a word in

Breaking a part of my heart to find release
Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace
Breaking a part of my heart to find release
Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace

Breaking a part of my heart to find release (Break)
Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace (Me)
Breaking a part of my heart to find release (Too)
Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace

Keep it locked up inside
keep my distance from your lies

Breaking a part of my heart to find release (Break)
Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace (Me)
Breaking a part of my heart to find release (Too)
Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace
Breaking a part of my heart to find release
Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace
Breaking a part of my heart to find release
Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace

Keep my distance
Keep my distance
Keep my distance
Keep my distance

I've been taking into crates ever since I was livin in space
Before the ratrace, before monkeys had human traits
Mastered numerology and bigbang theology
Performed lobotomies with telekinetic psychology
Invented the mic so I could start blessin it
And chincheckin kids to make my point like an impressionist
Many men have tried to shake us
But I twist mic cords to double helixes and show them what I'm made of
I buckle knees like leg braces
Cast the spell of instrumental-ness and all of the emcees that hate us
So try on, leave you without a shoulder to cry on
From now to infinity let icons be bygones
I fire bomb ghostly notes haunt this
I've tried threats but moved on to a promise
I stomp shit with or without an accomplis

Akira, put a kink in the backbones of clones with microphones
Never satisfy my rhyme jones
Sprayin bright day over what you might say
Blood type craillon(?)
Technicolor type A
On highways with road rage I'm patient to win
The cage and the tin to bounce all around
In surround sound devouring the scene
Subliminal gangrene paintings
Overall the same things sing songs karaoke copy madness
Break bones verbally with sticks and stone tactics
Fourth dimension, combat convention
Write rhymes at ease while the tracks stand at attention (Attention)
Meant to put you away with the pencil
Pistol, official, 16 line rhyme missile
While you risk it all, I pick out of your flaws
Spin, blah blah blah blah
You can say you saw

[Part of Me]

Part of me wont go away
Everyday reminded how much I hate it
Weighted against the consequences
Can't live without it so its senseless
Wanna cut it out of my soul
And just live with a gaping hole
Take control of my life
And wash out all the burnt taste
I made the problems in the first place
Hang my head low cause its part of me
Ya hardly see right next to the heart of me
Heard of me the routine scar
New cuts cover where the old ones are
And now I'm sick of this
I cant stand the sandpaper thoughts that grade away on my sanity
I rather not even be then the man thats staring in the mirror through me

Cut myself free willingly
Stop just whats killing me
Cut myself free willingly
Stop just whats killing me
Cut myself free willingly
Stop just whats killing me
Cut myself free willingly
Stop just whats killing me

I feel it everyday
I feel I made my way
I feel it swell up inside, swell up inside
Swallowing me

It cant be frightening if you've never felt it
Once its been dealt with you feel like youve been touched by something angelic
And then melted down into a pool of peace
Cease to be the animal you used to be
Remove the broken parts you know were wrong
And feel the karma when the problems all gone
And then you start to see another piece of yourself that you cant let be
And that reason'll last fight to free yourself
Take it to the depths of the bottom of the well
And now you know you can choose to lose the part in your heart
Where your insides bruise
You can live if you're willing to
Put a stop to just whats killing you

Cut myself free willingly
Stop just whats killing me
Cut myself free willingly
Stop just whats killing me
Cut myself free willingly
Stop just whats killing me
Cut myself free willingly
Stop just whats killing me

I feel it everyday
I feel I made my way
I feel it swell up inside, swell up inside
Swallowing me

Alive in me, inside of me, a part of me screams away silently (repeats w/ next line...)
This part of me wont go away, part of me wont go away

Everywhere I look around I see how everyone aught to be
Every time I see myself I see theres always something wrong with me

I feel it everyday
I feel I made my way
I feel it swell up inside, swell up inside
Swallowing me
I feel it everyday
I feel I made my way
I feel it swell up inside, swell up inside
Swallowing me

I feel it swell up inside, swell up inside, swallowing me
I feel it swell up inside, swell up inside, swallowing me


GREY DAZE LYRICS


What's In The Eye?

What's in the eye, can you tell me?
Watching the time pass me by
There's so much locked up inside

Don't go too fast my friend
Or you'll lose control
Don't go too fast my friend
Or you'll lose control

What's in the eye that I cannot catch?
Is it me, I want to know
Why it's so hard to let go

Don't go too fast my friend
Or you'll lose control
Don't go too fast my friend
Or you'll lose control

Don't go, don't you go, don't you go
No no
Don't go, don't you go, don't you go
No no
No no
No no

What's in the eye

What's in the eye
Yeah

^^^

Spin

I want to pick up the pieces
So that
There's less complication
So that
There's less conversation
and less aggravation

I want to go out alone, man
So that
There's less confrontation
And man
There's less association
and less company

I was so frustrated, man
That I was all confused, man
And that I was disillusioned
And sick of your friends

Run, don't walk my way
Don't look my way
'Cause, I don't care
Oh no
So why you still here?
Why don't you disappear?
And spin out of my life
Oh, hey!

Why do we have limitations
And man
Why do we have limitations
So that
We don't get very far
And so that
We don't climb very high
I can't handle the indecision
And I can't watch no more television
And I won't miss you when your gone
'Cause I know my life will go on
Yeah

Run, don't walk my way
Don't look my way
'Cause, I don't care
Oh no
So why you still here?
Why don't you disappear?
And spin out of my life
Oh, hey!

Morei Sky

I've lived with things I cannot say
Back then we dreamt of yesterday
It seemed as if the only way
And now we look for hope and pray

If I had a second chance
I'd make amends
Only to find myself
Losing in the end

It came up from the deepest sea
God gave it life and reason to be
His shadow rose above the highest tree
And still his face we could not see

If I had a second chance
I'd make amends
Only to find myself
Losing in the end

I've lived with things I cannot say
Back then we dreamt of yesterday
It seemed as if the only way
And now we look for hope and pray

If I had a second chance
I'd make amends
Only to find myself
Losing in the end

Wake Me

Should I have a taste of this
Run across your lips
And start all over again
Could this all just be a dream

If I should fall to stormy weather
Wake me, wake me-Yeah

Maybe this time I can do it all right
Without my foot in my mouth
Without that blind in my sight
Could this all just be a dream

If I should fall to stormy weather
Wake me, wake me-Yeah
If I should fall to stormy weather
Wake me, wake me, me-Yeah

Too scared to lose the one I tried so hard for
Too scared to lose the one I never had
Too scared to lose the one I tried so hard for
Too scared to lose the one I never had
Yeah

Starting To Fly

I know the answers from the words of the prophet
I've seen the light through the fingers
Made of magic
I've seen an image of the future
It's a vision and I know who you are, yeah

Go away-can't you see you're not real?
Open your eye some place far away
I've seen the ocean and I've seen the sky
I've got my wings and I'm starting to fly

I met a poet tonight behind the masses
I sang a song about my many true addictions
I saw myself in a hole, down below
And I know who you are, yeah

I'm alright though it's hard to feel
Open your eye some place far away
I've seen the ocean and I've seen the sky
I've got my wings and I'm starting to fly, yeah

Oh, Yeah (x2)

Open your eyes
Look to the sky
Grab your wings
And start to fly, yeah (x2)

I've seen the ocean and I've seen the sky
I've got my wings and I'm starting to fly (x2)

Yeah

Oh, I'm starting to fly (x4)

Yeah (x3)

Starting to fly (x3)

Sometimes

Sometimes, things just seem to fall apart
When you least expect them to
Sometimes, you want to pack up and leave behind
All of them and all their smiles
I don't know what to think anymore
Maybe things will get better
Maybe things will look brighter

Maybe (x3)

Sometimes, people surprise you
And people surprise me
Well I guess that's we pay
For wanting so badly
I don't know what to think anymore
Maybe things will get better
Maybe things look brighter

Maybe(x3)


I don't know what to think anymore
Maybe things will get better
Maybe things will look brighter

Maybe (x3)

I don't know what to think anymore
Maybe things will get better
Maybe things will look brighter

Holding You

Endless hopes, well
That's too bad
Smile happy
Enjoy my pain
Hoping I can find
What we never had
Never holding you
It makes me

100% is where it lies
Behind the tide
Inside the ocean
Inside you ocean

Frozen is the present past, oh
Made of stone, but breaks like, so
Take me now to where I want to go
Thoughts astray but who will know

In a dream it seems
Just to hold my hand
Shaking the release
Stop me, Stop me if you can
Endless hopes, well
That's too bad
Smile happy
Enjoy my pain
Hoping I can find
What we never had
Never holding you
It makes me

100% is where it lies
Behind the tide
Inside the ocean
Inside you ocean

In a dream it seems
Just to hold my hand
Shaking the release
Stop me, Stop me if you can

^^^

Hole

I would have sailed away
If I'd known that nothing would change
Staring out my window sill
In my waisted prison cell
And I know what you want
And I know what you feel
As I cradle your loving
And you watch you disappear

And I feel your heart beat, pounding in my head
I'd like to control you
cause I can't control myself

Rain come my way, mold my head like a ball of clay
Softly wither into my grave
Never to see the sun again

And I feel your heart beat, pounding in my head
I'd like to control you
'Cause I can't control myself

All alone in a crowd by myself
So sorry wish I could find a way
Back into your hole again
I've become your enemy

Rain come my way, mold my head like a ball of clay
Softly wither into my grave
never to see the sun again

^^^

Believe Me

Sleep
In the shadows
Breathe
In the air
Without dreaming
Without a care, oh
Look
In the mirror
Cry
No control
I've got a fever
I've got my whole, oh

I tried to believe it
Tried to receive it
With eyes of power
Will you deceive me, oh

Crawl
Up to the clouds
Claw
Your way out
I want to be there
I want to move on, oh

I ran like a coward
Far from this place
Show me desire
Show me disgrace
Believe me (x3)

^^^

Here, Nearby

Melted candles on the window sill
Perfume in the haze
Ashtrays spread across the floor
On a normal day
We lay out across the bed
Just like we always did
And in this house
The devil laid his hand on our head
And made them spin, Yeah

I want to be your man
If you think I care
I want to be your man
Your man, lord

No more defenses
Like no more peace of mind
Keeping in these knives stabbing
Spilling out your blood to me

If you think I care I want to be your man Your man, lord

Man,yeah I want to be your man

If you think I care I want to be your man Your man, lord (x2)

She Shines

She shines like a flower In my head
Everybody
Wants to pick her dead

She said she loved me
And lied to me
She was by the river
And lied to me

She shines like a flower In my head
Everybody
Wants her in their bed

She said she loved you
And lied to you
She was by the river
And lied to you
So eager
So eager, yeah
So eager

So eager (x12)
Repeat chorus #2
So eager (x8x)

Shouting Out

Silent criminals analyzed
Through psychic waving tears
Superstitious minds collide
As silence fills the hall
Silence moving proclamations
This silence proving lies
Speechless cries, emotions dulls
Shouting out across the hall

I didn't mean to let you down
I'm shouting out so ashamed
I didn't mean to run from you
I didn't mean to shouting out

Showing weakness in your eyes
You're crawling on your knees
Roaming aimless through skies lost
As silence shakes the halls
Creeping past all illusions
Searching thoughts that hide
Silence breaks in weeping hands
Shouting out and in again

I didn't mean to run from you
I'm shouting out so ashamed
I didn't mean to let you down
I didn't meant to shouting out
Shouting out
La de da dum a

B12

Yeah, yeah

Atom bombs
Something's wrong
D.E.A. sent to Guam
Acid trips
Big fat chicks
Purple flinstone
Vitamins
All the needy
Rich are greedy
I found out you don't need me
Berlin wall starts to fall
I trip out to the wall

Hooray, Hoorah
Hooray, Hoorah

You think I'm stupid
Stay out of my way
You think I'm stupid

Ku Kluk Klan makes a plan
To destroy the black man
Air pollution
No solution
What is causing this confusion?
Anarchism
Satanism
Anti-Christ
Socialism
A man's brain is deranged
So we think he's insane

Drag

Puncture me
Make me feel like I am real
Torture me
Drag me under you
Tide lifts me up and down
Tide makes me
SHUT UP!

Life
Is much to short to be intoxicated
Life
Is much to short to be a drag

Please treat me
Like I am a fallen angel
Surpress me
Tell me
LIES!

Life

Is much to short to be intoxicated
Life
Is much to short to be a drag

You can tell me

Sickness

I'm a whore
And I'm feeling
Sorry for myself
In your arms
I am drowning
Like the child I was

I need more-can you help me?
Feed my sin, come and kill me
It's calling, calling, calling, calling me

Endless skies
Falling freely
Down upon my head
So much for
Hopeless dreaming
Frustration settles in

I need more-can you help me?
Feed my sins, come and kill me
It's calling, calling, calling, calling me

In Time

Time
Why must it fly so slow
Waiting
Is something that's easy for you
Pull the plug
Send it down the drain
Pain is easy to get used to

What's in me
Is in you
What's got me
Has got you
And everything told
Must come true
Pretending to be real
Forgetting who you are

Sin
Is always at my door
Slice the vein
blood spilled on the floor
Light shining in my eyes
Death greets me with a smile

Pain
So much pain
Pain
So much pain

Just Like Heroin (A Little Down)

Just like heroin

It can't be me, bring us to our passage
Show me my new skin
So I can see what I've let in
Standing here
My thoughts low
And sound hard to understand
None can ever bring anyone to see

It's my time to fade
Dying on the floor
See myself as I am
Excuses are [just excuses]

Just like heroin
Just like heroin
Yeah
Just like heroin
Just like heroin

It's my time to fade
Dying on the floor
See myself as I am
Excuses are [just excuses]

The Down Syndrome

People come around
People let you down
Anywhere you go
Anyone you see
It's real
It's up to you to make it happen
It's up to you to make it real

And you know how it feels
To bleed some
To need some
And you know how it feels
To bleed some
To need some

Tell me what you know
Tell me how you feel
It doesn't matter when you're down
And when look at me with your eyes
That smile on your face it seems happy
Are you happy?

And you know how it feels
To bleed some
To need some
And you know how it feels
To bleed some
To need some

Yeah

And you know how it feels
To bleed some
To need some
And you know how it feels
To bleed some
To need some

Anything, Anything

Okay, what is it tonight
Please just tell me what the hell is wrong
Do you wanna eat?
Do you wanna sleep?
Do you wanna shout?
Just settle down
Settle down
Settle down

Well, I'll give you candy
Give you diamonds
Give you pills
I'll give you anything you want
Hundred dollar bills
And I'll even let you watch the shows you wanna see
'Cause you married me
Married me
Married me

I'm so sick of you tonight
You never stay awake when I get home
Something wrong with me?
Something wrong with you?
I really wish I knew
Wish I knew
Wish I knew

Well, I'll give you candy
Give you diamonds
Give you pills
I'll give you anything you want
Hundred dollar bills
And I'll even let you watch the shows you wanna see
'Cause you married me
Married me
Married me

When I was young I played the game
That love and happiness were the same
Now I'm older and I don't play
And I found out the hardest way
I got wasted
She got mad
She called me names
Then she called her dad
He got crazy and I did too
Wondering what I did to you

Well, I'll give you candy
Give you diamonds
Give you pills
I'll give you anything you want
Hundred dollar bills
And I'll even let you watch the shows you wanna see
I'll do anything
Anything
Anything
Anything
Anything
Anything
Anything
Anything

Soul Song

I will be waiting
With a song in my soul
A fortunate weakling
Which I have foretold
He raises his arms tied
Above the opressed
Singing his sweet song
His melody opens up the sun

And freedom reign
God has come
With the rivers of blood
Pushed back in my veins

She sleeps with her eyes closed
To dream of the past
Her mind has gone blind now
Her memory closes up the sun

And freedom reign
God has come
With the rivers of blood
Pushed back in my veins

Ohhhhhhh
Yeah

I will be waiting
With a song in my soul
A fortunate weakling
Which I have foretold
Ohhhhhhh

Let me tell you 'bout myself
Some say I got a bad attitude
Let me tell you 'bout myself
Some say I got a lot to prove
Let me tell you 'bout myself
I'll do what ever you want
I'll do what you ask me to
I'll do what you tell me to do

Strange
Love
Be gone
Be gone

Let me tell you 'bout myself
Some say I got a long way to go
Some say I'm going straight down
Some say there's nowhere to go
And this is what I say
Yeah
Yeah

Strange
Love
Be gone
Be gone

Strange
Love
We've all
Begun
