  1. FRANTIC

  2. If I could have my wasted days back
    Would I use them to get back on track?
    Stop to warm at karmas 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 always being afraid
    An endless stream of fear that I've made

    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 pai)
    A rising tide (death is pain)
    That pushes to the other side (its all the same)


  3. ST. ANGER

  4. 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 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
    Its 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


  5. SOME KIND OF MONSTER

  6. 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 tounge that speaks on the inside
    These are the ears that ring with the 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 not 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 tounge 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


  7. DIRTY WINDOW

  8. I see my reflection in the window
    It looks different, so different than what you see
    Projecting Judgement on the world
    This house is clean baby
    This house is clean

    Am I who I think I am?
    Am I who I think I am?
    Am I who I think I am?
    Look out my window and see it's gone wrong
    Court is in session and I slam my gavel down

    I'm judge and I'm jury and I'm executioner too

    Projector
    Protector
    Rejector
    Infector
    Projector
    Rejector
    Infector
    Injector
    Defector
    Rejector

    I see my reflection in the window
    This window clean inside, dirty on the out
    I'm looking different than me
    This house is clean baby
    This house is clean

    Am I who I think I am?
    Am I who I think I am?
    Am I who I think I am?
    I look out my window and see it's gone wrong
    My court is in session and now I slam my gavel down

    Projector
    Protector
    Rejector
    Infector
    Projector
    Rejector
    Infector
    Injector
    Defector
    Rejector
    Defector

    I drink from the cup of denial
    I'm judging the world from my throne
    I drink from the cup of denial
    I'm judging the world from my throne


  9. INVISIBLE KID

  10. 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 know
    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 hurt inside
    I hurt inside
    I hurt inside, but I'll show you...

    I'm ok, just go away
    Into distance let me fade
    I'm ok, just go away
    I'm ok, but please don't stray too far

    Open 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 around in himself


  11. MY WORLD

  12. 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 cloauds 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

    Wjo'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


  13. SHOOT ME AGAIN

  14. 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 tounge
    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


  15. SWEET AMBER

  16. Wash your back so you won't stab mine
    Get in bed with your own kind
    Live you life so you don't see mine
    Drape your back so you won't shine

    Ooh then she holds my hand
    And I lie to get a smile

    Using what I want
    To get what you want

    Ooh sweet amber
    How seet are you?
    How sweet does it get?

    Chase the rabbit, fetch the stick
    She rolls me over 'till I'm sick
    She deals in habits, deals in pain
    I run away, But I'm back again

    Ooh then she holds my hand
    And I lie to get a smile
    And she squeezes tighter
    I still lie to get a smile

    She holds the pen that spellsa the end
    She traces me and draws me in


  17. THE UNNAMED FEELING

  18. Been here before

    Been here before couldn't say I liked it
    Do I start writing all this down?
    Just let me plug you into my world
    Can't you help me be uncrazy?

    Name this for me, heat the cold air
    Take the chill off of my life
    An if I could I'd turn my eyes
    To look inside to see what's comin'

    It comes alive
    And I die a little more
    It comes alive
    Each moment here I die a little more

    Then the unnamed feeling
    It comes alive
    Then the unnamed feeling
    Takes me away

    I'm fraintic in your soothing arms
    I can not sleep in this down filled world
    I've found safety in this loneliness
    But I can not stand it anymore

    Cross my heart hope not to die
    Swallow evil, Ride the sky
    Lose myself in a crowded room
    You fool, you fool, it will be here soon

    It comes alive
    And I die a little more
    It comes alive
    Each moment here I die a little more

    Then the unnamed feeling
    It comes alive
    Then the unnamed feeling
    Treats me this way
    And I wait for this train
    Toes over the line
    And then the unnamed feeling
    Takes me away

    Get the fuck out of here
    I just wanna get the fuck away from me
    I rage, I gaze, I hurt, I hate
    I hate it all, why? Why? Why me?

    I cannot sleep with a head like this
    I wanna cry, I wanna scream
    I rage, I gaze, I hurt, I hate
    I wanna hate it all away


  19. PURIFY

  20. Tear it down
    Strip the layers off
    My turpentine
    OLd paint, old looks
    Cover up the past
    White heat, white light
    Super white bones
    Bones of you and I

    Pure if I... Can't you help me?
    Pure if I... Won't you help me?
    Purify you and I
    Purify you and I
    Pure if I... Can't you help me?
    Pure if I... Won't you help me?
    You and I purify

    Truth and dare
    Peeling back the skin
    Acid wash
    Ghost white
    Ultra clean
    Wanna be skeleton
    Clear eyes
    Diamond eyes
    Strip the past of mine
    My sweet turpentine

    I can find the dirt on anything
    I can find the dirt on anything

    I ain't dancing with you skeletons
    I ain't dancing with what might have been


  21. ALL WITHIN MY HANDS

  22. All within my hands
    Squeeze it in, crush it down
    All with my hands
    Hold it dear, hold it suffocate

    All within my hands
    Love to death, smack you 'round & 'round and
    All within my hands
    Beware

    Love is control
    I'll die if I let go

    Hate me now
    Kill all within my hands
    Hate me now
    Crush all within my hands
    Squeeze all within my hands
    Choke all within my hands
    Hate me now
    Trap all within my hands
    Hurry up and hate me now
    Kill all within my hands

    All within my hands
    Take your fear, pump me up
    All within my hands
    Let you run, then I pull your leash

    All within my hands
    Under thumb, under to myself
    All within my hands
    Beware

    Love is control
    I'll die if I let go

    Hate me now
    Kill all within my hands
    Hate me now
    Crush all within my hands
    Squeeze all within my hands
    Choke all within my hands
    Hate me now
    Trap all within my hands
    Hurry up and hate me now
    Kill all within my hands

    I'll die if I let go
    Control is love, love is control
    I'll fall is I let go
    Control is love, love is control

    I will only let you breathe
    My air that you receive
    Then We'll see if I let you love me

    Kill kill kill kill kill
