MASTER OF PUPPETS End of passion play, crumbling away I'm your source of self-destruction Veins that pump with fear, sucking darkest clear Leading on your death's construction
Taste me, you will see More is all you need You're dedicated to How I'm killing you
Come crawling faster Obey your master Your life burns faster Obey your master Master
Master of puppets, I'm pulling your strings Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams Blinded by me, you can't see a thing Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream Master Master Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream Master Master
Needlework the way, never you betray Life of death becoming clearer Pain monopoly, ritual misery Chop your breakfast on a mirror
Taste me you will see More is all you need You're dedicated to How I'm killing you
Come crawling faster Obey your master Your life burns faster Obey your master Master
Master of puppets, I'm pulling your strings Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams Blinded by me, you can't see a thing Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream Master Master Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream Master Master
Master, master Where's the dreams that I've been after? Master, master You promised only lies Laughter, laughter All I hear and see is laughter Laughter, laughter Laughing at my cries Fix me
Hell is worth all that, natural habitat Just a rhyme without a reason Never-ending maze, drift on numbered days Now your life is out of season
I will occupy I will help you die I will run through you Now I rule you, too
WELCOME HOME (SANITARIUM) Welcome to where time stands still No one leaves and no one will Moon is full, never seems to change Just labeled mentally deranged Dream the same thing every night I see our freedom in my sight No locked doors, no windows barred No things to make my brain seem scarred
Sleep, my friend, and you will see That dream is my reality They keep me locked up in this cage Can't they see it's why my brain says “rage”
Sanitarium, leave me be Sanitarium, just leave me alone
Build my fear of what's out there Cannot breathe the open air Whisper things into my brain Assuring me that I'm insane They think our heads are in their hands But violent use brings violent plans Keep him tied, it makes him well He's getting better, can't you tell?
No more can they keep us in Listen, damn it, we will win They see it right, they see it well But they think this saves us from our hell
Sanitarium, leave me be Sanitarium, just leave me alone Sanitarium, just leave me alone
Fear of living on Natives getting restless now Mutiny in the air Got some death to do Mirror stares back hard Kill, it's such a friendly word Seems the only way For reaching out again
SEEK & DESTROY We're scanning the scene in the city tonight We're looking for you to start up a fight There's an evil feeling in our brains But it's nothing new, you know it drives us insane
Running, on our way Hiding, you will pay Dying, one thousand deaths Running, on our way Hiding, you will pay Dying, one thousand deaths Searching Seek and destroy Searching Seek and destroy Searching Seek and destroy Searching Seek and destroy
There is no escape and that's for sure This is the end, we won't take any more Say goodbye to the world you live in You have always been taking but now you're giving
Running, on our way Hiding, you will pay Dying, one thousand deaths Running, on our way Hiding, you will pay Dying, one thousand deaths Searching Seek and destroy Searching Seek and destroy Searching Seek and destroy Searching Seek and destroy
Our brains are on fire with the feeling to kill And it won't go away until our dreams are fulfilled There is only one thing on our minds Don't try running away, 'cause you're the one we will find
Running, on our way Hiding, you will pay Dying, one thousand deaths Running, on our way Hiding, you will pay Dying, one thousand deaths Searching Seek and destroy Searching Seek and destroy Searching Seek and destroy Searching Seek and destroy

MOTORBREATH Living and dying, laughing and crying Once you have seen it you'll never be the same Life in the fast lane is just how it seems It's hot and it's heavy and dirty and mean
Motorbreath It's how I live my life I can't take it any other way Motorbreath The sign of living fast It is going to take your breath away
Don't stop for nothing, it's full speed or nothing I'm taking down, you know, whatever's in my way Getting your kicks as you're shooting the line Sending the shivers up and down my spine
Motorbreath It's how I live my life I can't take it any other way Motorbreath The sign of living fast It is going to take your breath away
Those people who tell you not to take chances They are all missing on what life's about You only live once, so take hold of the chance Don't end up like others, same song and dance
Motorbreath It's how I live my life I can't take it any other way Motorbreath The sign of living fast It is going to take your breath away
JUMP IN THE FIRE Down in the depths of my fiery home The summons bell will chime Tempting you and all the earth To join our sinful kind There's a job to be done and I'm the one You people make me do it Now it's time for your fate and I won't hesitate To pull you down into this pit
So come on Jump in the fire So come on Jump in the fire
With hell in my eyes and with death in my veins The end is closing in Feeding on the minds of man And from their souls within My disciples all shout to search you out And they always shall obey Follow me now, my child, not the meek or the mild But do just as I say
So come on Jump in the fire So come on Jump in the fire
Jump by your will or be taken by force I'll get you either way Trying to keep the hellfire lit I'm stalking you as prey Living your life as me, I am you, you see There is part of me in everyone So reach down, grab my hand, walk with me through the land Come home where you belong
So come on Jump in the fire So come on Jump in the fire
FIGHT FIRE WITH FIRE
Do unto others as they've done to you But what the hell is this world coming to? Blow the universe into nothingness Nuclear warfare shall lay us to rest
Fight fire with fire Ending is near Fight fire with fire Bursting with fear
We all shall die Time is like a fuse, short and burning fast Armageddon's here, like said in the past
Fight fire with fire Ending is near Fight fire with fire Bursting with fear
Soon to fill our lungs, the hot winds of death The gods are laughing, so take your last breath
Fight fire with fire Ending is near Fight fire with fire Bursting with fear
Fight fire with fire
Fight
RIDE THE LIGHTNING Guilty as charged But damn it, it ain't right There's someone else controlling me Death in the air Strapped in the electric chair This can't be happening to me
Who made you God to say, I'll take your life from you?
Flash before my eyes Now it's time to die Burning in my brain I can feel the flame
Wait for the sign To flick the switch of death It's the beginning of the end Sweat, chilling cold As I watch death unfold Consciousness my only friend
My fingers grip with fear What am I doing here?
Flash before my eyes Now it's time to die Burning in my brain I can feel the flame
Someone help me Oh please, God help me They are trying to take it all away I don't want to die
Time moving slow The minutes seem like hours The final curtain call I see How true is this Just get it over with If this is true, just let it be
Wakened by horrid scream Freed from this frightening dream
Flash before my eyes Now it's time to die Burning in my brain I can feel the flame
FADE TO BLACK Life, it seems, will fade away Drifting further every day Getting lost within myself Nothing matters, no one else
I have lost the will to live Simply nothing more to give There is nothing more for me Need the end to set me free
Things not what they used to be Missing one inside of me Deathly lost, this can't be real Cannot stand this hell I feel
Emptiness is filling me To the point of agony Growing darkness taking dawn I was me, but now he's gone
No one but me can save myself, but it's too late Now I can't think, think why I should even try
Yesterday seems as though it never existed Death greets me warm, now I will just say goodbye
...AND JUSTICE FOR ALL Halls of justice painted green Money talking Power wolves beset your door Hear them stalking Soon you'll please their appetite They devour Hammer of justice crushes you Overpower
The ultimate in vanity Exploiting their supremacy I can't believe the things you say I can't believe, I can't believe the price you pay Nothing can save you
Justice is lost Justice is raped Justice is gone Pulling your strings Justice is done Seeking no truth Winning is all Find it so grim, so true, so real
Apathy their stepping stone So unfeeling Hidden deep animosity So deceiving Through your eyes their light burns Hoping to find Inquisition sinking you With prying minds
The ultimate in vanity Exploiting their supremacy I can't believe the things you say I can't believe, I can't believe the price you pay Nothing can save you Justice is lost Justice is raped Justice is gone Pulling your strings Justice is done Seeking no truth Winning is all Find it so grim, so true, so real
Lady Justice has been raped Truth assassin Rolls of red tape seal your lips Now you're done in
Their money tips her scales again Make your deal Just what is truth, I cannot tell Cannot feel
The ultimate in vanity Exploiting their supremacy I can't believe the things you say I can't believe, I can't believe the price we pay Nothing can save us
Justice is lost Justice is raped Justice is gone Pulling your strings Justice is done Seeking no truth Winning is all Find it so grim, so true, so real
Seeking no truth Winning is all Find it so grim, so true, so real

EYE OF THE BEHOLDER Do you see what I see? Truth is an offence Your silence for your confidence
Do you hear what I hear? Doors are slamming shut Limit your imagination, keep you where they must
Do you feel what I feel? Bittering distress Who decides what you express?
Do you take what I take? Endurance is the word Moving back instead of forward seems to me absurd
Doesn't matter what you see Or into it what you read You can do it your own way If it's done just how I say
Independence limited Freedom of choice Choice is made for you, my friend Freedom of speech Speech is words that they will bend Freedom with their exception
Do you fear what I fear? Living properly Truths to you are lies to me
Do you choose what I choose? More alternatives Energy derives from both the plus and negative
Do you need what I need? Boundaries overthrown Look inside, to each his own
Do you trust what I trust? Me, myself, and I Penetrate the smoke screen, I see through the selfish lie
Doesn't matter what you see Or into it what you read You can do it your own way If it's done just how I say
Independence limited Freedom of choice Choice is made for you, my friend Freedom of speech Speech is words that they will bend Freedom with their exception
Do you know what I know? Your money and your wealth Your silence just to hear yourself
Do you want what I want? Desire not a thing I hunger after independence, lengthen freedom's ring
Doesn't matter what you see Or into it what you read You can do it your own way If it's done just how I say
Independence limited Freedom of choice Choice is made for you, my friend Freedom of speech Speech is words that they will bend Freedom no longer for you
Doesn't matter what you see Or into it what you read You can do it your own way If it's done just how I say

ONE I can't remember anything Can't tell if this is true or dream Deep down inside I feel to scream This terrible silence stops me
Now that the war is through with me I'm waking up, I cannot see That there is not much left of me Nothing is real but pain now
Hold my breath as I wish for death Oh please, God, wake me
Back in the womb it's much too real In pumps life that I must feel But can't look forward to reveal Look to the time when I'll live
Fed through the tube that sticks in me Just like a wartime novelty Tied to machines that make me be Cut this life off from me
Hold my breath as I wish for death Oh please, God, wake me
Now the world is gone, I'm just one Oh God, help me Hold my breath as I wish for death Oh please, God, help me
Darkness imprisoning me All that I see Absolute horror I cannot live I cannot die Trapped in myself Body my holding cell
Landmine has taken my sight Taken my speech Taken my hearing Taken my arms Taken my legs Taken my soul Left me with life in hell
HARVESTER OF SORROW My life suffocates Planting seeds of hate I've loved, turned to hate Trapped far beyond my fate
I give, you take This life that I forsake Been cheated of my youth You turned this lie to truth
Anger, misery You'll suffer unto me
Harvester of sorrow Language of the mad Harvester of sorrow
Pure black, looking clear My work is done soon here Try getting back to me Get back which used to be
Drink up Shoot in Let the beatings begin Distributor of pain Your loss becomes my gain
Anger Misery You'll suffer unto me
Harvester of sorrow Language of the mad Harvester of sorrow
All have said their prayers Invade their nightmares To see into my eyes You'll find where murder lies
Infanticide
Harvester of sorrow Language of the mad Harvester of sorrow Language of the mad Harvester of sorrow
DYERS EVE Dear Mother Dear Father What is this hell you have put me through? Believer Deceiver Day in, day out, live my life through you Pushed onto me what's wrong or right Hidden from this thing that they call “life”
Dear Mother Dear Father Every thought I'd think you'd disapprove Curator Dictator Always censoring my every move Children are seen but are not heard Tear out everything inspired
Innocence Torn from me without your shelter Barred reality I'm living blindly
Dear Mother Dear Father Time has frozen still what's left to be Hear nothing Say nothing Cannot face the fact I think for me No guarantee, it's life as-is But damn you for not giving me my chance
Dear Mother Dear Father You've clipped my wings before I learned to fly Unspoiled Unspoken I've outgrown that fucking lullaby Same thing I've always heard from you, “Do as I say, not as I do”
Innocence Torn from me without your shelter Barred reality I'm living blindly
I'm in hell without you Cannot cope without you two Shocked at the world that I see Innocent victim, please rescue me
Dear Mother Dear Father Hidden in your world you've made for me I'm seething I'm bleeding Ripping wounds in me that never heal Undying spite I feel for you Living out this hell you always knew
Enter Sandman Say your prayers, little one Don't forget, my son, To include everyone
Tuck you in, warm within Keep you free from sin Till the sandman he comes
Sleep with one eye open Gripping your pillow tight
Exit: light Enter: night Take my hand We're off to never-never land
Something's wrong, shut the light Heavy thoughts tonight And they aren't of Snow White
Dreams of war, dreams of liars Dreams of dragon's fire And of things that will bite
Sleep with one eye open Gripping your pillow tight
Exit: light Enter: night Take my hand We're off to never-never land
Now I lay me down to sleep Pray the Lord my soul to keep If I die before I wake Pray the Lord my soul to take
Hush little baby, don't say a word And never mind that noise you heard It's just the beasts under your bed In your closet, in your head
Exit: light Enter: night Grain of sand
Exit: light Enter: night Take my hand We're off to never-never land

THE UNFORGIVEN New blood joins this earth And quickly he's subdued Through constant pained disgrace The young boy learns their rules
With time, the child draws in This whipping boy done wrong Deprived of all his thoughts The young man struggles on and on, he's known A vow unto his own That never from this day His will they'll take away
What I've felt What I've known Never shined through in what I've shown Never be Never see Won't see what might have been
What I've felt What I've known Never shined through in what I've shown Never free Never me So I dub thee “Unforgiven”
They dedicate their lives To running all of his He tries to please them all This bitter man he is
Throughout his life the same He's battled constantly This fight he cannot win A tired man they see no longer cares The old man then prepares To die regretfully That old man here is me
What I've felt What I've known Never shined through in what I've shown Never be Never see Won't see what might have been
What I've felt What I've known Never shined through in what I've shown Never free Never me So I dub thee “Unforgiven”
You labeled me I'll label you So I dub thee “Unforgiven”
NOTHING ELSE MATTERS So close no matter how far Couldn't be much more from the heart Forever trusting who we are And nothing else matters
Never opened myself this way Life is ours, we live it our way All these words I don't just say And nothing else matters
Trust I seek and I find in you Every day for us something new Open mind for a different view And nothing else matters
Never cared for what they do Never cared for what they know But I know
So close no matter how far It couldn't be much more from the heart Forever trusting who we are And nothing else matters
Never cared for what they do Never cared for what they know But I know
I never opened myself this way Life is ours, we live it our way All these words I don't just say And nothing else matters
Trust I seek and I find in you Every day for us something new Open mind for a different view And nothing else matters
Never cared for what they say Never cared for games they play Never cared for what they do Never cared for what they know And I know
OF WOLF AND MAN Off through the new day's mist I run Out from the new day's mist I have come I hunt Therefore I am Harvest the land Taking of the fallen lamb
Off through the new day's mist I run Out from the new day's mist I have come We shift Pulsing with the earth Company we keep Roaming the land while you sleep
Shape shift, nose to the wind Shape shift, feeling I've been Move swift, all senses clean Earth's gift, back to the meaning of life
Bright is the moon, high in starlight Chill in the air, cold as steel tonight We shift Call of the wild Fear in your eyes It's later than you realized
Shape shift, nose to the wind Shape shift, feeling I've been Move swift, all senses clean Earth's gift, back to the meaning of life
I feel a change Back to a better day Hair stands on the back of my neck In wildness is the preservation of the world So seek the wolf in thyself
Shape shift, nose to the wind Shape shift, feeling I have been Move swift, all senses clean Earth's gift Back to the meaning of wolf and man
So close no matter how far Couldn't be much more from the heart Forever trusting who we are No, nothing else matters
THE HOUSE JACK BUILT Open door, so I walk inside Close my eyes, find my place to hide And I shake as I take it in Let the show begin
Open my eyes just to have them close again Well on my way, but on my way to where I've been It swallows me as it takes me in its fog I twist away as I give this world the nod
Open door, so I walk inside Close my eyes, find my place to hide And I shake as I take it in Let the show begin
Open my eyes just to have them closed once again Don't want control As it takes me down and down and down again Is that the moon or just a light that lights this dead-end street? Is that you there or just another demon that I meet?
The higher you are The farther you fall The longer the walk The farther you crawl My body, my temple This temple, it tilts Step into the house that Jack built
The higher you are The farther you fall The longer the walk The farther you crawl My body, my temple This temple, it tilts Yes, this is the house that Jack built
Open door, yes, I walk inside Swallow me so the pain subsides And I shake as I take the sin Let the show begin
The higher you are The farther you fall The longer the walk The farther you crawl My body, my temple This temple, it tilts Yes, this is the house that Jack built
The higher you are The farther you fall The longer the walk The farther you crawl My body, my temple This temple, it tilts Yes, I am, I am, I am
Open my eyes It swallows me Is that you there I twist away Away Away Away

UNTIL IT SLEEPS Where do I take this pain of mine? I run, but it stays right by my side
So tear me open, pour me out There's things inside that scream and shout And the pain still hates me So hold me until it sleeps
Just like the curse, just like the stray You feed it once and now it stays Now it stays
So tear me open but beware There's things inside without a care And the dirt still stains me So wash me until I'm clean
It grips you, so hold me It stains you, so hold me It hates you, so hold me It holds you, so hold me Until it sleeps
So tell me why you've chosen me Don't want your grip, don't want your greed Don't want it
I'll tear me open, make you gone No more can you hurt anyone And the fear still shakes me So hold me until it sleeps
It grips you, so hold me It stains you, so hold me It hates you, so hold me It holds you, holds you, holds you until it sleeps
I don't want it
So tear me open but beware There's things inside without a care And the dirt still stains me So wash me till I'm clean
I'll tear me open, make you gone No longer will you hurt anyone And the hate still shapes me So hold me until it sleeps Until it sleeps

KING NOTHING Wish I may, wish I might Have this I wish tonight Are you satisfied? Dig for gold, dig for fame You dig to make your name Are you pacified?

HERO OF THE DAY Mama, they try and break me
The window burns to light the way back home A light that warms no matter where they've gone They're off to find the hero of the day But what if they should fall by someone's wicked way?
Still the window burns Time so slowly turns And someone there is sighing Keepers of the flames Do you feel your name? Did you hear your babies crying?
Mama, they try and break me Still they try and break me
Excuse me while I tend to how I feel These things return to me that still seem real Now, deservingly, this easy chair But the rocking stopped by wheels of despair
Don't want your aid But the fist I make For years can't hold or feel No, I'm not all me So please excuse me while I tend to how I feel
But now the dreams and waking screams That ever last the night So build the wall, behind it crawl And hide until it's light So can you hear your babies crying now?
Still the window burns Time so slowly turns And someone there is sighing Keepers of the flames Did you feel your names? Did you hear your babies crying?
But now the dreams and waking screams That ever last the night So build a wall, behind it crawl And hide until it's light So can't you hear your babies crying now?
Mama, they try and break me Mama, they try and break me Mama they try Mama they try
Fuel Gimme fuel, gimme fire Gimme that which I desire
Turn on, I see red Adrenaline crash and crack my head Nitro junkie, paint me dead And I see red
One hundred plus through black and white War horse, warhead Fuck 'em, man, white-knuckle tight Through black and white
On I burn Fuel is pumping engines Burning hard, loose and clean And on I burn Churning my direction Quench my thirst with gasoline
So gimme fuel, gimme fire Gimme that which I desire
Turn on beyond the bone Swallow future, spit out home Burn your face upon the chrome
Take the corner, join the crash, Headlights, head on, headlines Another junkie lives too fast Lives way too fast
On I burn Fuel is pumping engines Burning hard, loose and clean And on I burn Churning my direction Quench my thirst with gasoline
So gimme fuel, gimme fire Gimme that which I desire

THE UNFORGIVEN II Lay beside me, tell me what they've done Speak the words I want to hear, to make my demons run The door is locked now but it's opened if you're true If you can understand the me, then I can understand the you
Lay beside me, under wicked skies Through black of day, dark of night, we share this paralyze The door cracks open but there's no sun shining through Black heart scarring darker still, but there's no sun shining through
No, there's no sun shining through No, there's no sun shining
What I've felt, what I've known Turn the pages, turn the stone Behind the door, should I open it for you?
What I've felt, what I've known Sick and tired, I stand alone Could you be there, 'cause I'm the one who waits for you Or are you unforgiven, too?
Come beside me, this won't hurt, I swear She loves me not, she loves me still, but she'll never love again She lay beside me but she'll be there when I'm gone Black heart scarring darker still, yes, she'll be there when I'm gone Yes, she'll be there when I'm gone Dead sure she'll be there
What I've felt, what I've known Turn the pages, turn to stone Behind the door, should I open it for you?
What I've felt, what I've known Sick and tired, I stand alone Could you be there, 'cause I'm the one who waits for you Or are you unforgiven, too?
Lay beside me, tell me what I've done The door is closed, so are your eyes But now I see the sun, now I see the sun Yes, now I see it
What I've felt, what I've known Turn the pages, turn the stone Behind the door, should I open it for you?
What I've felt, what I've known Sick and tired, I stand alone Could you be there? 'Cause I'm the one who waits The one who waits for you
I take this key And I bury it in you Because you're unforgiven, too
Never free Never me 'Cause you're unforgiven, too
PRINCE CHARMING There's a black cloud overhead That's me And the poison ivy chokes the tree Again it's me I'm the filthy one on Bourbon Street you walk on by I'm the little boy that pushes hard and makes it cry
There's a dirty needle in your child Stick me Empty bottles still in hand, still dead Still me I'm the suit and tie that bleeds the street and still wants more I'm the forty-five that's in your mouth, I'm a dirty, dirty whore
Look, it's me The one who can't be free Much too young to focus But too old to see
Hey, look, it's me What no one wants to see See what you brought this world Just what you want to see Hey, Ma Hey, Mom! Look, it's me
And he wants to be called “Father” now Me again, me The marks inside your arms spell me Spell only me I'm the nothing face that plants the bomb and strolls away I'm the one who doesn't look quite right as children play
Look, it's me The one who can't be free Much too young to focus But too old to see
Hey, look, it's me What no one wants to see See what you brought this world Just what you want you want to see Hey, Ma Hey, Ma! Look, it's me
Look up to me, What to be and what to fear Look up to me Look, it's me. Like what you hear? See right through me See the one who can't be free See right through me Look, it's me, what no one wants to see
Now see the black cloud up ahead That's me And this poison ivy chokes the tree Again it's me And I'm the filthy one on Bourbon Street you walk on by I'm the little boy that pushes, pushes, makes it cry
Look, it's me The one who can't be free Much too young to focus But too old to see
Hey, look, it's me What no one wants to see See what you brought this world Just what you want to see Hey, Ma Hey, Ma! Look, it's me
FIXXXER Dolls of voodoo all stuck with pins One for each of us and our sins So you lay us in a line Push your pins, they make us humble Only you can tell in time If we fall or merely stumble
But tell me, can you heal what Father's done? Or fix this hole in a mother's son? Can you heal the broken worlds within? Can you strip away so we may start again?
Tell me, can you heal what Father's done? Or cut this rope and let us run? Just when all seems fine and I'm pain free You jab another pin, jab another pin in me
Mirror, mirror, upon thy wall Break the spell or become the doll See you sharpening the pins So the holes will remind us We're just the toys in the hands of another And in time the needles turn from shine to rust
But tell me, can you heal what Father's done? Or fix this hole in a mother's son? Can you heal the broken worlds within? Can you strip away so we may start again?
Tell me, can you heal what Father's done? Or cut this rope and let us run? Just when all seems fine and I'm pain free You jab another pin, jab another pin in me
Blood for face, sweat for dirt Three Xs for the stone To break this curse a ritual's due I believe I'm not alone Shell of shotgun, pint of gin Numb us up to shield the pins Renew our faith, which way we can To fall in love with life again To fall in love with life again To fall in love with life again To fall in love To fall in love To fall in love with life again
So tell me, can you heal what Father's done? Or fix this hole in a mother's son? Can you heal the broken worlds within? Can you strip away so we may start again?
Tell me, can you heal what Father's done? Or cut this rope and let us run? Just when all seems fine and I'm pain free You jab another pin, jab another pin in me
No more pins in me No more, no more pins in me
FRANTIC If I could have my wasted days back Would I use them to get back on track? Stop to warm and karma’s burning Or look ahead , but keep on turning?
Do I have the strength To know how I’ll go? Can I find it inside To deal with what I shouldn’t know?
Could I have my wasted days back Would I use them to get back on track?
You live it or lie it!
My lifestyle determines my deathstyle
Keep searching, keep on searching This search goes on, this search goes on
Frantic Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tock Frantic Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tock
I’ve worn out always being afraid An endless stream of fear that I’ve made Treading water full of worry This frantic tick tick talk of hurry
Do I have the strength To know how I’ll go? Can I find it inside To deal with what I shouldn’t know?
Worn out on always being afraid An endless stream of fear that I’ve made
You live it or lie it!
My lifestyle determines my deathstyle
Keep searching, keep on searching This search goes on, this search goes on
Frantic Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tock Frantic Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tock
My lifestyle (Birth is pain) Determines my deathstyle (Life is pain) A rising tide (Death is pain) That pushes to the other side (It’s all the same)

ST. ANGER Saint Anger 'round my neck Saint Anger 'round my neck He never gets respect Saint Anger 'round my neck
You flush it out, you flush it out Saint Anger 'round my neck You flush it out, you flush it out He never gets respect
Fuck it all and no regrets I hit the lights on these dark sets I need a voice to let myself To let myself go free Fuck it all and fuckin' no regrets I hit the lights on these dark sets Medallion noose, I hang myself Saint Anger 'round my neck
I feel my world shake Like an earth quake It's hard to see clear Is it me? Is it fear?
I'm madly in anger with you
And I want my anger to be healthy And I want my anger just for me And I need my anger not to control And I want my anger to be me
And I need to set my anger free
Set it free

SOME KIND OF MONSTER These are the eyes that can't see me These are the hands that drop your trust These are the boots that kick you around This is the tongue that speaks on the inside These are the ears that ring with hate This is the face that'll never change This is the fist that grinds you down This is the voice of silence no more
These are the legs in circles run This is the beating you'll never know These are the lips that taste no freedom This is the feel that's no so safe This is the face you'll never change This is the God that ain't so pure This is the God that is not pure This is the voice of silence no more
We the people Are we the people?
Some kind of monster The monster lives
This is the face that stones you cold This is the moment that needs to breathe These are the claws that scratch these wounds This is the pain that never leaves This is the tongue that whips you down This is the burden of every man These are the screams that pierce your skin This is the voice of silence no more
This is the test of flesh and soul This is the trap that smells so good This is the flood that drains these eyes These are the looks that chill to the bone These are the fears that swing over head These are the weights that hold you down This is the end that will never end This is the voice of silence no more
We the people Are we the people?
Some kind of monster The monster lives
This is the cloud that swallows trust This is the black that uncolors us This is the face that you hide from This is the mask that comes undone
Ominous I'm in us
INVISIBLE KID Invisible kid Never see what he did Got stuck where he hid Fallen through the grid
Invisible kid Got a place of his own Where he'll never be known Inward he's grown
Invisible kid Locked away in his brain From the shame and the pain World down the drain
Invisible kid Suspicious of your touch Don't want no crutch But it's all too much
I hide inside I hurt inside I hide inside, but I'll show you…
I'm OK, just go away Into the distance let me fade I'm OK, just go away I'm OK, but please don't stray too far
Open up your heart I'm beating right here Open your mind I'm being right here, right now Open your heart I'm beating right here Open your mind I'm being right here, right now
Ooh, what a good boy you are Out of the way and you're kept to yourself Ooh, can't you see that he's not here He doesn't want the attention you give Ooh, unplugging from it all Invisible kid floats alone in his room Ooh, what a quiet boy you are He looks so calm floating 'round and 'round in himself

MY WORLD The motherfuckers got in my head Trying to make me someone else instead
It's my world now
Mama, why's it rainin' in my room? Cheer up boy, clouds will move on soon Heavy fog got me lost inside Gonna sit right back and enjoy this ride
It's my world You can't have it It's my world, it's my world It's my world
I'm out of my head, out of my head Get 'em out of my head, out of my head Get 'em out
Who's in charge of my head today? Dancin' devils in angels way
It's my time now
Look out motherfuckers here I come Gonna make my head my home The sons of bitches tried to take my head Tried to make me someone else instead
It's my world You can't have it It's my world, it's my world It's my world
I'm out of my head, out of my head Get 'em out of my head, out of my head Get 'em out
Not only do I not know the answer I don't even know what the question is
God it feels like it only rains on me
Not only do I not know the answer I don't even know what the question is
I'm out of my head, out of my head Get 'em out of my head, out of my head Get 'em out
Enough's enough

SHOOT ME AGAIN I won't go away Right here I'll stay
Stand silent in flames Stand tall 'till it fades
Shoot me again I ain't dead yet
Shoot me again
All the shots I take I spit back at you All the shit you fake Comes back to haunt you
All the shots
All the shots I take What difference did I make? All the shots I take I spit back at you
I won't go away, with a bullet in my back Right here I'll stay, with a bullet in my back
Shoot me Take a shot
I'll stand on my own, with a bullet in my back I'm stranded and sold, with a bullet in my back
I bite my tongue Trying not to shoot back No compromise My Heart won't pump the other way
Wake the sleeping giant Wake the beast Wake the sleeping dog No, let him sleep
