Let's take a blast to the moon baby
I sit around wishing you well
how I'm craving you, yeah!
Every time I'm near you
I always wanna swallow you down
I'll be right here if ya' need me
In my life, I'll need you here, don't ask why
I'll never disappear
why is it everyday that I feel the pain?
Let's take a trip to the stars far away
where were you when I was down?
Staring into the dead
my pain is caused by my pleasure
my soul mate lives in your body
I can't get you out of my head
It never goes away
In my life I'll need you here, don't ask why
I'll never disappear
In your eyes you can bid me farwell
but don't ever try to understand the situation
why is it everyday that I feel the pain?
It always comes when I least expect it
when I'm looking for love
always seem to be regretting it
Why is it everyday that I feel the pain?
And I wonder day to day
I don't like you anyway
I don't need your shit today
You're pathetic in your own way

I feel for you
(better fuckin go away)
I will behave
Better fuckin go away
I'm doing the best I ever did
I'm doing the best that I can
I'm doing the best I ever did

I don't need to fantasize
You are my pet all the time
I don't mind if you go blind
You get what you get
Until you through with my life

I feel for you
(better fuckin go away)
I will behave
You better go away
You better go away

I'm doing the best I ever did
I'm doing the best that I can
I'm doing the best I ever did
Now go away
Now go away

I'm doing the best I ever did
(go away)
I'm doing the best that I can
(go away)
(go away)

I'm doing the best I ever did
I'm doing the best that I can
I'm doing the best I ever did
Now go away!

I'm doing the best I ever did
I'm doing the best that I can
I'm doing the best I ever did
Now go away
Now go away

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

I'm doing the best I ever did
(go away)
I'm doing the best that I can
Sickness spilling through your eyes
Craving everything you thought was alive, yeah
Stab me in heart again, ah yeah
Drag me through your wasted life, are you forever dead?

Do like I told you 
Stay away from me
Never misunderstand me
Keep away from me

Twistin' everything around that you say, yeah!
Smack me in my mouth 200 times every other day
Rag me, I don't hear you anymore, not yet 
Find out what it means to me, I don't know who you are

Do like I told you 
Stay away from me
Never misunderstand me
Keep away from me

Do like I told you 
Stay away from me
Never misunderstand me

Yeah!

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Oh!

Draggin' on so lonely, aren't you tired baby? Yeah!
Breathing life into your lungs are you immune to me?
Immune to me
Immune to me
Immune to me
Maybe yeah yeah yeah!

Do like I told you 
Stay away from me
Never misunderstand me
Keep away from me

Do like I told you 
Stay away from me
Never misunderstand me

Ahhh. Yeah!
Keep away from me
Oh yeah!
Never misunderstand me
Never misunderstand me
Never misunderstand me
Ahhh. Yeah

Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
I am in a living hell, makes me wonder if I'm alive
Can't seem to bring myself to figure out why
I shove and I pull away from the things
that I call you every night
I can't seem to break you down
But I know I'll come around...
I feel your pins through my eyes piercing me
Lie down in all this piss,
You drink it from me every night
I live in a world of shit, been left here to die
Sometimes I realize my mind is meant to go away
Never have seen your god,
So why should I believe in faith?
I feel your pins through my eyes,
piercing me, all the time.
Another time bomb
I never find the time to find another fucking place.
I'm a bad motherfucker who lives it everyday.
You never look at me now.
You never look me in the face.
I'm a time bomb baby.
I can't find the time to find the place
I'm a bad motherfucker who lives it everyday
You never look a me now
You never look me in the face, I'm a time bomb
What am I waiting for?
Never find the time to find another place,
I'm a bad motherfucker who lives it everyday
You never look at me now.
You never look me in the face.
I'm a time bomb, Yeah!
[Preacher:] The word of God says that we will receive
praise of God. God will begin to speak forth, our
Righteousness is of him, sayith the Lord
[Music Begins]

Get back

Can you feel I'm not like you anymore. 
I cant see, 
I cant breathe.
See you quiver like the dogs on the street, 
Looking down on as I beat you.
Oh, its a bad religion, 
From a broken nation.
Its a contradiction,
And I cant take it anymore, yeah. 
Who's ta say I wont like you anyway?
Take a deep breath, 
I'm alive.
Can you hear me,
I'm alive inside you.
Agony creeps up behind you.
Oh, Its a bad religion (Bad religion)
From a broken nation (A broken nation)
Its a contradiction,
And I cant take it any fucking more
Its a bad religion (bad religion, bad religion, bad religion)
From a broken nation (Broken nation)
Its a contradiction.
Yeah.
Can you feel it?
I gotta live with it everyday
And I cant take the pressure.
I'm goin' insane, 
Now go away

Go away

[Preacher:] Now you start praising God where ever you
are. I don't care where you are, I don't care what is
happening, just begin to praise God, just begin to
praise him and praise him and praise him and praise
him and worship him, and bless him... [Trails off]
[Intro]
You have come here because society has no further use for you
This place will now become your holding pen until our death.
I am very good at this business because I make all the rules.
But if you break any of my rules, you will find that there is life after death.

Patience is how I'm living today.
I lie before you stressing me out again
My life is twisted, twisted like your own brains
I can't accept that, I can't accept that again

Face it, try it, immune to what you are
A superstition jinxing me like the black cat
Inside you, It's only what I crave
A system breakdown, can you remember your
name? did you forget you?
Did you forget your identity?

Yeah, face it.
No, try it.
Yeah, immune to what you are.

A superstition... jinxing me like the black cat inside you.
It's only what I crave.
A system breakdown...
Can you remember your name?
Did you forget you?
Did you forget your identity?

Yeah, face it.
No, try it.
Yeah, immune to what you are.

What's the matter with your own ways?
Why are you freakin' me out again?
What's the matter with your own mind?
You can't be yourself anymore when you're suckin' out my life from under me

Yeah, face it.
No, try it.
Yeah, immune to what you are."

"Yeah, face it.
No, try it.
Yeah, immune to what you are."

Face it...
Face it...
yeah, face it...
yeah, try-y-y-y-y-y...
Why are you laughing as if you're my friend?
I'm gonna slap you again and again and again
I like you better when you go away
Gotta get up, gotta get out, gotta get up
You gotta go away
you were the love of my life for a day
I kind of thought that
You'd feel the same what...No way!
Consider you a figment of my imagination
But will you every go away?
Can't remember my name, can't remember at all
Finding you from past times, I think...
How did we ever fall?
Never knowing the answers, calling myself names
Now is not the question for us
will it ever be again
Why don't you just fly, fly to me?
How long will you wait for me? Never?
Now or never again
Feel me up inside you, how you quiver and shake
Can I rake you back to my life?
Will you trust me again? Now or never...
I'll never let you down, so fly to me!
How long can I wait...
Why don't you just fly, fly to me?
How long will you wait for me? Never?
You think your head's achin', I'm not finished yet
I won't be mistaken, how soon you forget
Take back what you said and I'll spare you pain
then you can spare me all your fuckin' lies
I can't wait to get away
I ask you twenty more times,
Don't you hear a thing?
Your testing my patience again,
Careful for your sake
Take a walk with me there, and I'll show you pain
But who said you can open up your mouth
I can't wait to get away
Thoughts are pissed away
And for a minute I couldn't swallow
Thoughts are pissed away
And for a minute I couldn't swallow
If you think that I'm the one who'll be here
Come tomorrow think again
In time I'll be here, Not waiting for you anymore
I love you anyway, is it so rare that I've been
Sleeping with the dead
Lying in my sweat drying my tears,
Waiting for you I am...
Making me feel like I don't care
I don't care!
This situation in my head.
Will this situation ever end?
How can I feel if I can't breathe,
What we once had will never be again...
This situation in my head.
Will this situation ever end?
I cannot take it anymore!
I really like what you can give me,
But I don't know where I'm
standing right now, not yet!
I really feel like you can hear me.
Why your not turning this
around I'll never know!
I'm not the one who's so far away
When I feel the snake bite enter my veins
Never did I wanna be here again
And I don't remember why I came

Candles raise my desire
Why I'm so far away
No more meaning to my life
No more reason to stay
Freezing feeling, 
Breathe in, breathe in
I'm coming back again

I'm not the one who's so far away
When I feel the snake bite enter my veins
Never did I wanna be here again
And I don't remember why I came

Hazing clouds rain on my head
Empty thoughts fill my ears
Find my shade by the moon light
Why my thoughts aren't so clear
Demons dreaming
Breathe in, breathe in
I'm coming back again

I'm not the one who's so far away
When I feel the snake bite enter my veins
Never did I wanna be here again
And I don't remember why I came

I'm not the one who's so far away
When I feel the snake bite enter my veins
Never did I wanna be here again
And I don't remember why I came

I'm not the one who's so far away
When I feel the snake bite enter my veins
Never did I wanna be here again
And I don't remember why I came

I'm not the one who's so far away
When I feel the snake bite enter my veins
Never did I wanna be here again
And I don't remember why I came

Voodoo, voodoo, voodoo, voodoo.
Voodoo, voodoo, voodoo, voodoo.

So far away...
I'm not the one who's so far away...
I'm not the one who's so far away...
I'm not the one who's so far away...
Paralyzed. Nothing's getting through to me.
Hypnotized from all my surroundings.
I wanna be something I could never be.
I wanna say things that I could never say.
Yeah, I'm gonna do it again!

Sick of my life. I'm tired of everything in my life.

Dragged down. Rubbing my face in the ground.
No time for the undecided.
I wanna know why I've always felt alone,
And I wanna love. Why am I untouchable?
Yeah, I'm gonna do it again!

Sick of my life. I'm tired of everything in my life.
I never wanted to be sick of my life.
I'm tired of everything in my life.
Wait another minute. Can't you see what this pain has fucking done to me.
I'm alive and still kickin'. What you see I can't see and maybe
you'll think before you speak.

I'm alive, for you I'm awake. Because of you.
I'm alive. Told you I'm awake. Swallowing you

Take another second. Turn your back on me and make believe that
you're always happy.
It's safe to say you're never alive. A big part of you has died
and by the way, I hope you're satisfied.

Tearing it back unveiling me.
Taking a step back so I can breathe.
Hear the silence about to break.
Fear resistance when I'm awake.
Two faced! I feel you crawling under my skin.
Sickened by your face.
By the way, to think that you're so fucking kind?
You ain't!

Hard to find how I feel, especially when you're smothering me.
Hard to find how I feel, please someone help me!

I knew when an angel whispered into my ear,
You gotta get him away.
Hey little bitch! Be glad you finally walked away or
you may have not lived another day.

Hard to find how I feel, especially when you're smothering me.
Hard to find how I feel, please someone help me.
Hard to find how I feel, controlling me every step of the way.
Hard to find how I feel, you greedy little baby!!
Does it feel so bad when you're taking a drag and when 
you're looking at the world with dying eyes?
When you stare at it dead and you're giving it head and all those
things you say you love never come alive. 

If it feels so bad, Bad magick playing off of me.
Oh no, I don't wanna be your friend.
Bad magick laying into me.
Oh no, I don't wanna hear it again.

When you get so high that you're wanting to dye but everything
around you is turning green.
When you're getting so low and I know you've been feeling like
a dried out leaf in a summer breeze. I don't like it!

Getting back, Back on track, Get off of my back
I see the world it's going 'round.
Seems to me it's upside down.
Looking for something to say.
I feel a little different anyway.

Does it make much sense to you?
Doing all those things you do.
Making sure that I'm all right? Yeah, I'm fine!

I've been feeling I'm going down.
No, I don't feel a thing.
Life's going by me. And still I say,
Oh God! I'm making the same mistakes.

Low? I'm on empty.
Try to erase all the bad times.
Free? I don't seem to be.
My soul remains tied to your life.

Every breath you breathe deep, 
I feel you circulating through me.
I'll never forgive myself again.
I'm so sick and tired of making the same mistakes.
Living a different way. You can't expect me to be the same.
Separating our lives and wondering why.
Face down I walk away. Every time I think I do the right thing,
you turn your back on me.

Trippin' into a world that never seems too far away.
Too much time, too many wasted days.

How can you be this way? Now I'm alone and cold today.
I'm walking dead man's drive. Reaching out for my life.
I've been known to fuck up everything. 
In this skin there's a broken man.

Trippin' into a world that never seems too far away.
Too much time, too many wasted days.
Just another vision in my world!
There's nothing to me now. An empty shell unfolded.
How, when we learn to pray inside our demons are laughing
How long will this go on? Are we a bit much stronger?
Do you think you can save me from living this way?

I don't know how to love. I just know how to live.
All I feel is hate. Will you forgive me?

For all those things I've done, they keep on creeping by me.
And though we've changed our ways, 
still all our demons are laughing.
How long will this go on? Aren't we a bit much stronger?
I'd like to think you've came into my life to stay.

I don't know how to love. I just know how to live.
All I feel is hate. Will you forgive me?
I don't know how to breathe with you too far away.
Don't know how to love. Will you forgive me?
No I can't live this way!
I don't know how to love. I just know how to live.
All I feel is pain. Will you forgive me?
I don't know how to breathe with you too far away.
I don't know how to love.

Past lives I've lived. Uncontrolled but sacred.
You've finally seen all that's left of me.
So hard to feel. So hard to breathe.
Will you forgive me?
Few creatures of the night have captured our imagination like Vampires

What explains our induring fasination with Vampires?

What is it about the vampire myth that explains our intrest?

Is it the over tellings of sexual lust, power, control?

Or is it a fasination with the inmmortality of the undead?

And what dark and hidden part of our Psyche are aroused and captivated by the legends of the undead?
(by the legends of the undead.....the legends of the undead)

The mystery of the undead will continues to fasinate the living

Vampires

Dead, dead, dead, dead, dead, dead

Few creatures of the night have captured our imagination like Vampires

What explains our induring fascination with Vampires?

And what dark and hidden part of our Psyche are aroused and captivated by the legends of the undead?
(By the legends of the undead)
Ah-Ahhh-Ahhh
I will....I will....I will....
I will....I will....I will....
I will....I will....I will....
Sometimes we only live for the here and now.
Sometimes we're lonely.
Sometimes we feel we need a place to be grounded,
or fly away again

I will fly away again.

I feel rain pouring down. I wait to rot away,
live again, here forever, the spiral never ends.

Why are we feeling something's familiar around us?
Are we just dreaming?
Always we search for the answers but nothing is found.
We fly away again.

I will fly away again.
[Chorus]Sometimes we only live for the here and now.
Sometimes we're lonely.
Sometimes we feel we need a place to be grounded,
or fly away again

I will fly away again.

I feel rain pouring down. I wait to rot away,
live again, here forever, the spiral never ends.

Why are we feeling something's familiar around us?
Are we just dreaming?
Always we search for the answers but nothing is found.
We fly away again.

I will fly away again.
There's no reason
There's no compromise
Change in seasons
Living the high life
I don't know you
So don't freak on me
I can't control you
You're not my destiny

Straight out of line
I can't find a reason
Why I should justify my ways
Straight out of line
I don't need a reason
You don't need to lie to me

I'll confess this you're my tragedy
I laid you to rest just
As fast as you turned on me
Gone for ever
Vanished the memories
Displays of pleasure
Are masked by your misery

Straight out of line
I can't find a reason
Why I should justify my ways
Straight out of line
I don't need a reason
You don't need to lie to me

Lie to me

Straight out of line
I can't find a reason
Why I should justify my ways
Straight out of line
I don't need a reason
You don't need to lie to me

Lie to me
Lie to me
Lie to me
Hate me with everything
I'm better off without your animosity
I'll even sleep better at night...at night
I won't believe in you
Reminded me of everything you put me through
Now everything feels alright...alright

I feel so betrayed...mistaken
I create another day
You'll be gone tomorrow
Lie to me.. you're faceless

You've made me out to be
Responsible for your self-inflicted misery
And never felt like this before...before
Don't be surprised to see
That I have nothing left for you to bleed
When you come crawling back for more...for more

I feel so betrayed...mistaken
I create another day
You'll be gone tomorrow
Lie to me...you're faceless

I create another day
You'll be gone tomorrow
Lie to me...you're faceless

I create another day
You'll be gone tomorrow
Lie to me...you're faceless

I create another day
You'll be gone tomorrow
Lie to me...you're faceless
All or nothing
It sometimes lies between what's undecided
And all for nothing
It seems I'm wasting my time
Don't look down on me
Like I don't know anything that I've been doing
You talk down to me
It's time you take a better look inside

I'll never be the same
I'm moving back onto my ways
I'm looking for changes to better my way

Bow down to me
Taken your pride and stuff it down inside
Vows are ruined
Losing my faith, losing time
Better off you than me
I just can't stand another day when you're in my way
A long time brewing
It's time you kiss your ass goodbye

I'll never be the same
I'm moving back onto my ways
I'm looking for changes to better my way

I'll never be the same
I'm moving back onto my ways
I'm looking for changes to better my way

I'll never be the same
I'm moving back onto my ways
I'm looking for changes
I'll never be the same
I'm moving back onto my ways
I'm looking for changes
I'm looking for changes
to better my way
to better my way
Into my
Throw away my dreams
This fight for my life isn't getting behind me
And I've been told to scream
Where no one can hear me, it doesn't mean nothing

So make me believe
Just take me away from this hell I've created
And I'm afraid
I'm breaking my own vows knowing I'll go down in flames

I know this can't be right
There's got to be something more that I can live for
And I can only hide
Inside of this sickness for so long again

So make me believe
Just take me away from this hell I've created
And I'm afraid
I'm breaking my own vows knowing I'll go down

Make me believe
Just take me away from temptation that's calling me
And I'm afraid
I'm breaking my own vows knowing I'll go down in flames

Running in circles
Confusion is calling my name
Hiding inside of this poisoning madness again
I'm tired, I'm broken
I'm walking along with the dead
Will I ever feel like I once did?

So make me...

Make me believe
Just take me away from this hell I've created
And I'm afraid
I'm breaking my own vows knowing I'll go down

Make me believe
Make me believe
Make me believe
I'm breaking my own vows, knowing I'll go down in flames
Now I've told you this once before
You can't control me
If you try to take me down you're gonna break
Now I feel your every nothing that you're doing for me
I'm picking you outta me
you run away
I stand alone
Inside
I stand alone
You're always hiding behind your so called goddess
So what you don't think that we can see your face
Resurrected back before the final fallen
I'll never rest until I can make my own way
I'm not afraid of fading
I stand alone
Feeling your sting down inside of me
I'm not dying for it
I stand alone
Everything that I believe is fading
I stand alone
Inside
I stand alone
And now its my time (now its my time)
It's my time to dream (my time to dream)
Dream of the sky (dream of the sky)
Make me believe that this place isn't plagued
By the poison in me
Help me decide if my fire will burn out
Before you can breathe
Breathe into me
I stand alone
Inside
I stand alone
Feeling your sting down inside of me
I'm not dying for it
I stand alone
Everything that I believe is fading
I stand alone
Inside
I stand alone
Inside
I stand alone
Inside
I stand alone
Inside
Decisions made from desperation
No way to go
Internal instincts craving isolation
For me to grow

My fears come alive
In this place where I once died
Demons dreaming
Knowing I...I just needed to realign

Fell in a river of illusion
And apathy
Drowning in a self-induced confusion
I'd rather be 
Yeah!

My fears come alive
In this place where I once died
Demons dreaming
Knowing I...I just needed to realign

My fears come alive
In this place where I once died
Demons dreaming
Knowing I...I just needed to realign

Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!

My fears come alive
In this place where I once died
Demons dreaming
Knowing I...I just needed to realign

My fears come alive
In this place where I once died
Demons dreaming
Knowing I...I just needed to realign
Yeah!
For everything you do
I'd like to swallow you
And everyday I'm gonna blame you
Even if you justify
Every fucking bullshit lie
It only makes me want to break you
You pull me down
And you crucify my name
You make me insane
It's broken now
Don't ever look my way
Don't even think I'm playin'
'Cause I fucking hate you
You're such a liar
And I love to hate you
You're all the same to me
When you repeatedly
Take advantage of me
The only thought I get of you sickens me
Everybody knows you're fake
You're everything I fucking hate
And I'm everything that you could never be
You pull me down
And you crucify my name
You make me insane
It's broken now
Don't ever look my way
Don't even think I'm playin'
'Cause I fucking hate you
You're such a liar
And I love to hate you
You're all the same to me
I fucking hate you
You're such a liar
And I love to hate you
You're all the same to me
(Fuck you)
(Fuck you)
(Fuck you)
You pull me down
And you crucify my name
You make me insane
It's broken now
Don't ever look my way
Don't even think I'm playin'
'Cause I fucking hate you
You're such a liar
And I love to hate you
You're all the same to me
And I fucking hate you
You're such a liar
And I love to hate you
You're all the same to me
Fuck you (fuck you)
Fuck you (fuck you)
Fuck you (fuck you)
Fuck you (fuck you)
What do you see in the dark
when the demons come for you

If only you could have seen 
how fucked up my life used to be
then everything starts to change
supposedly healing my pain
I never thought I'd feel this way
I never thought that I'd see a day
I'd run away from anything or anywhere or anyone
Its all these demons haunting me
Its all these little things trapped inside of me
Releasing me from all my sin
Its taken me all of my anger
And taken me all of my hate
To learn how my life came together
Releasing the demons again

And now I look through my minds eye
And see where my past needs to rest
Its always disturbed by these voices
That echo inside of my head
Another way that I can hide
Another reason to crawl inside and get away 
from everything and everywhere and everyone
NO!
Its all these demons haunting me
Its all these little things trapped inside of me
Releasing me from all my sin

Its taken me all of my anger
And taken me all of my hate
To learn how my life came together
Releasing the demons......again

Facin the days as I grow into my own
Loving and hatings the same
And three-fold I told you 
it comes back with laughter
Over and over again
Its coming back

Its taken me all of my anger
And taken me all of my hate
To learn how my life came together
Releasing the demons again
Too many things I've never spoken
I'm not feeling fine
I never told you what to do
I never made you a promise that you could hold me to
That'll be the day you see me crying

Everyday, I still say you're dead and broken
Everyday, I still say you're dead and broken
You're dead and broken

How many different faces can you show me?
How many times can you be right?
Another world of fantasy
Another reason for dramatizing everything
Taking it all in just one more time
I'm dying

Everyday, I still say you're dead and broken
Everyday, I still say you're dead and broken
You're dead and broken

Sorry to see that you're underestimated lately
I'd rather be dead and broken than living in your grace

Everyday, I still say you're dead and broken
Everyday, I still say you're dead and broken
You're dead and broken
You're dead and broken
You're dead and broken
You're dead and broken
You're dead and broken
You're dead and broken
You're dead and broken
I am your spoken truth
I am the lies in you
I'm gonna make you shine in everything you do
I am your lighted way
And I'm your darkest day
I'm here to help you see you can rely on me

Just consider me your friend
I am until the end
Can I guarantee you life?
I don't think I can

This isn't the life for me
This isn't the way I want to be
And let me tell you
Death will come when I'm good and ready

I am your peace of mind
Confusing all your time
I'm running through your veins, I am your pain
I thought by now you'd know 
I'll never let you go
It's time you recognize I am the devil's eyes

Just consider me your friend
I am until the end
Can I guarantee you life?
I don't think I can

This isn't the life for me
This isn't the way I want to be
And let me tell you
Death will come when I'm good and ready

This isn't the life for me
This isn't the way I want to be
And let me tell you
Death will come when I'm good and ready

Take me by my hand
And let me show you what I am
I'm taking control again
Now I know I can 
Take you back to where it all began
'Cause I am

This isn't the life for me
This isn't the way I want to be
And let me tell you
Death will come when I'm good and ready

This isn't the life for me
This isn't the way I want to be
And let me tell you
Death will come when I'm good and ready
As I sit here and slowly close my eyes
I take another deep breath
And feel the wind pass through my body
I'm the one in your soul
Reflecting inner light
Protect the ones who hold you
Cradling your inner child

I need serenity
In a place where I can hide
I need serenity
Nothing changes, days go by

Where do we go when we just don't know
And how do we relight the flame when it's cold
Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing
And when will we learn to control

Tragic visions slowly stole my life
Tore away everything
Cheating me out of my time
I'm the one who loves you
No matter wrong or right
And every day I hold you
I hold you with my inner child

I need serenity
In a place where I can hide
I need serenity
Nothing changes, days go by

Where do we go when we just don't know
And how do we relight the flame when it's cold
Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing
And when will we learn to control

Where do we go when we just don't know
And how do we relight the flame when it's cold
Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing
And when will we learn to control

I need serenity
I need serenity
Can’t find the answers
I’ve been crawling on my knees
Looking for anything
To keep me from drowning
Promises have been turned to lies
Can’t even be honest inside
Now I’m running backward
Watching my life wave me goodbye

Running blind
I’m running blind
Somebody help me see I’m running blind

Searching for nothing
Wondering if I’ll change
I’m trying everything
But everything still stays the same
I thought if I showed you I could fly
Wouldn’t need anyone by my side
Now I’m running backward
With broken wings I know I’ll die

Running blind
I’m running blind
Somebody help me see I’m running blind
Running blind
Running blind
Running blind

I can’t find the answers
I’ve been crawling on my knees
Looking for anything
To keep me from drowning
I’m running blind
Running blind
Running blind
Running blind
Running blind
Running blind
Running blind
Running blind
Running blind
Decisions made from desperation
No way to go
Internal instincts craving isolation
For me to grow

My fears come alive
In this place where I once died
Demons dreaming
Knowing I...I just needed to realign

Fell in a river of illusion
And apathy
Drowning in a self-induced confusion
I'd rather be 
Yeah!

My fears come alive
In this place where I once died
Demons dreaming
Knowing I...I just needed to realign

My fears come alive
In this place where I once died
Demons dreaming
Knowing I...I just needed to realign

Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!

My fears come alive
In this place where I once died
Demons dreaming
Knowing I...I just needed to realign

My fears come alive
In this place where I once died
Demons dreaming
Knowing I...I just needed to realign
Yeah!
Find a way
A way to be
You're looking down again
Just let it be
And I'd only do for you what you'd do for me
And I only would do for you what you'd do for me

Wastin' time like it was free
Will you ever find where you'll be
And I'd only do for you what you'd do for me
And I only would do for you what you'd do for me
And I only would do for you what you'd do for me yeeeeah
And I only would do for you what you'd do for me

Ohhhh... don't look back just to lean on me
Ohhhh... it's taken the life out of me
It's not like you'd know
You've never been close enough
Closer than you've been to me
It's not what you say
It's just in the way
You push me awaaay

And I only would do for you what you'd do for me yeeeeeah
And I only would do for you what you'd do for me yeeeeeah
And I only would do for you what you'd do for me
And I only would do for you what you'd do for me
Listen to the rain fallin' day by day
Listen to the rain fallin' day by day by day
Hey

I hear you calling, voices are here again
I hear you whisper, taking control of me
Watch the dancing shadows run away
All alone once again, afraid

All these faces, changing their shapes on me
Isolated in my own world, will it ever be free?
Haunted figures around me, I want em' to stay
There always there to protect me, this is one thing you can't take away

Listen to the rain fallin' day by day
Listen to the rain fallin' day by day by day
Yeah!

I hear you calling, voices are here again
I hear you whisper in my own mind, will it ever change?
Voices
Voices
Voices
Voices

I hear you calling
Sometimes we only live for the here and now
Sometimes we're lonely
Sometimes we feel we need a place to be grounded
Or fly away again

I will fly away again
I will fly away again

Why are we feeling something's familiar around us?
Are we just dreaming?
Always we search for the answers but nothing is found
We'll fly away again

I will fly away again
I will fly away again

I feel rain pouring down 
I wait to rot away
Live again
Here forever
The spiral never ends

Rot away
Live again
Here forever
The spiral never ends

I feel rain pouring down 
I wait to rot away
Live again
Here forever
The spiral never ends

Rot away
Live again
Here forever
The spiral never ends

It never ends

I will fly away again
I will fly away again
I will fly away again
I will fly away again
Wait a minute.
Can't you see what this pain has done to me
I'm alive but I'm slippin'.
What you see I can not see and maybe you'll think before you speak

I'm alive for you.
I'm awake because of you
I'm alive told you.
I'm awake swallowing you

Take a second.
Turn your back on me and make believe
It's safe to say you're never alive.
A big part of you has died and by the way, I hope you're satisfied

I'm alive for you.
I'm awake because of you
I'm alive told you.
I'm awake swallowing you
I'm alive for you.
I'm awake because of you
I'm alive told you.
I'm awake swallowing you
Once again my friend
Storm clouds are rolling
Broken inside myself
Can't seem to break this chain
Can't break it!

And I've seen it all
And I've walked it tall
Lived in this sin
Where do I begin?

Caught between the lines
My life of worthless lies
Shedding my skin to begin
A life that I don't know how to live
I can't take it!

And I've seen it all
And I've walked it tall
Lived in this sin
Where do I begin?

I don't know now
Where to go now
I don't know if I'll ever again... no
It's all broken
Not a word spoken
And I don't know how to go, how to.. god help me now!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

And I've seen it all
And I've walked it tall
Lived in this sin
Livin' in sin
Livin' in sin
Livin' in sin
Livin' in sin
Where do I begin?
Free, you better love me
And hide or run away
From all your yesterdays

Speak the truth or make your peace some other way, oh yea, yea
Well I never knew, but I believe that your trust in me
Will speak to me!

And way beyond your controlling mind (mind)
And no more believing in all your precious lies

Speak the truth or make your peace some other way, oh yea, yea
Well I never knew, but I believe that your trust in me
Will speak to me!
Speak the truth or make your peace some other way, oh yea, yea, yea
Well I never knew, but I believe that your trust in me
Will speak to me!

Speak the truth or make your peace some other way, oh yea, yea
Well I never knew, but I believe that your trust in me
Will speak to me!
Speak the truth or make your peace some other way, oh yea, yea
Well I never knew, but I believe that your trust in me
Will speak to me!
Speak
Speak
Speak
Speak
Speak!
Hey! Oh, Mr. backstabbing son of a bitch
You're living in a world that will soon be dying
And I know, everybody knows you try to be like me
But even at your best, as a man you couldn't equal half of me

I am realizing, that everybody's lost their simple ways
And now that is here, I see it all so clearly
I've come face to face with the enemy, oh the enemy!

You! You're another shit talking punk to me
You're living inspiration for what I never wanna be
And I see, you've been blinded by what you believe
And now back up and sit down, shut up and act like you need to be

I am realizing, that everybody's lost their simple ways
And now that is here, I see it all so clearly
I've come face to face with the enemy, oh the enemy!
Come to me, come to me, the enemy, come to me, come to me

So predicting, you're the reason why
I lie
Simple decision took too much time
To fly
Oh, check me, check me...

I am realizing, that everybody's lost their simple ways
And now that is here, I see it all so clearly
I've come face to face with the enemy, oh the enemy!
Come to me
So tired sleeping through the day
Bloodshot eyes and sweat from my body
And I picked my head up yesterday
Found the reason of hope left inside of me

But I still believe in immortal love
And I know there's someone above

Shine down, don't take it away from me, no
And I know you know how, yeah
Shine down, just give me a chance to feel it
It's taken forever to get me off the ground

A dead silence overwhelming me
Day and night takes it's toll on my sanity
And I know I've been away too long
All these years I've been hiding
I'm feeling I'm coming strong

But I still believe in immortal love
And I know there's someone that's up above
Show me a path to find my way
And give me a reason pray

Shine down, don't take it away from me, no
And I know you know how, yeah
Shine down, just give me a chance to feel it
It's taken forever to get me off the ground

Shine down, don't take it away from me, no
And I know you know how, yeah
And shine down, just give me a chance to feel it
It's taken forever to get me off the ground
Shine down
Shine down
Oh, shine down
Oh baby, yeah, yeah, yeah
Shine down
Oh, shine down
Oh, shine down
Oh baby shine down
One more step and I could fall away
If it happened would it matter?
And I can't tell if I should go or stay
Same old picture feel so hollow
How can anybody know what's best for me?
Another page I turn in shame
And my decisions brought me to my knees
I needed someone to blame

I feel so hollow
I feel so hollow
Time to do what's best for me I believe I can change

Once upon a time in broken dreams
Reflection's that I can't face
So hold your breath and make a wish for me
Take me to a better place
Time always seems to be passing by
It never waits for me
If I could do it all one more time
I wouldn't change a thing

I feel so hollow (feel so hollow)
I feel so hollow (feel so hollow)
I feel so hollow (feel so hollow)
I feel so hollow (feel so hollow)
Time to do what's best for me I believe I can change
Walked a fine line, slipped the edge under me
Rise above a suicide, taking it out of me
Got a feeling, it's going far away, yeah
Licking the wounds from yesterday

Gonna fly, taken my time, strip down to nothing
Gonna try, but there's no rest for the wicked

Been through the skin of a dragon a thousand times
In every day I live for you, still I'm not alive
Got a feeling, I'm gonna fall away
Gimme a sign, one reason that I should stay

Gonna fly, taken my time, strip down to nothing
Gonna try, but there's no rest for the wicked
Gonna fly, take my time, strip down to nothing
Gonna try, but there's no rest for the wicked

Are you ready to know just who I am?
Do you think you can make me a better man?
Crack me open, expose me to your ways
Ignorance and arrogance on my way
Oh yea
No rest for the wicked baby!

Gonna fly, take my time, strip down to nothing
Gonna try, but there's no rest for the wicked
Gonna fly, take my time, strip down to nothing
Gonna try, but there's no rest for the wicked
Way, way down inside there's a hollow soul
An emptiness shatters tomorrow
And I find it hard to breathe for me in your company
Seems I've been taken for granted

And you're breaking and bleeding me down to nothing
It's tearing me down
You're breaking me and bleeding me down to nothing
Yeah!

Maybe, this time baby it's meant to be
No more suffocating you or me, oh yeah
And I payed the price but you sentencing me to life
And I feel I bought in my time

And you're breaking and bleeding me down to nothing
It's tearing me down
You're breaking me and bleeding me down to nothing
Again

You're breaking me
And bleeding me
Again
You're bleeding me, you're bleeding me

And you're breaking and bleeding me down to nothing
You're tearing me down
You're breaking me and bleeding me down to nothing
You're tearing me, tearing me down again
Tearing me down again
You're breaking me and bleeding me
Bleeding me again
(I'm not the one who's so far away)
(I'm not the one who's so far away)

Open your eyes, a chill passes you by
A premonition coming strong
Rich with desire, superstition in disguise
Draws me into where I belong

Have you ever wondered why in a dream you can touch a fallen sky?
Fly to the heavens that watch over you, telling me it's a voodoo
Voodoo too

In, still the body, so warm with every breath
Dance to a vision so seductive
Rain down upon me, it cleanses me with every drip
A send you promised for the nourishment that I've been gifted

Have you ever wondered why in a dream you can touch a fallen sky?
Fly to the heavens that watch over you, telling me it's a voodoo
Have you ever wondered why in a dream you can touch a fallen sky?
Fly to the heavens that watch over you, telling me it's a voodoo
Voodoo too

Voodoo too, it's all voodoo too

Have you ever wondered why in a dream you can touch a fallen sky?
Fly to the heavens that watch over you, telling me it's a voodoo
Have you ever wondered why in a dream you can touch a fallen sky?
Fly to the heavens that watch over you, telling me it's a voodoo
Voodoo too

It's just voodoo too, it's all voodoo too, it's just what you do
It craws down deep inside
Without a pulse or a will to die
Now i've known the simplifies
And now it takes what it takes
Unless the feeling suffocates
Its nothing new, it'll get its way
Another thing that i'll see
Is how it gets inside of me
And tears away my life

It's time to love, its time to hate
It's commin face to face trying to desicrate
No time at all to break away
Temptation still got a hold on me

It's awake even when you sleep
It breathes without a heartbeat
Making me incomplete
And now I know what I know
Expect the demon down below to surface through my moral soul
And now it looks to be smiling as it's killing me
Day to day I lie

It's time to love, its time to hate
It's commin face to face trying to desicrate
No time at all to break away
Temptation still got a hold on me
It's time to love, its time to hate
It's commin face to face trying to desicrate
No time at all to break away
Temptation still got a hold on me

It's time to love, its time to hate
It's commin face to face trying to desicrate
No time at all to break away
Temptation still got a hold on me
It's time to love, its time to hate
It's commin face to face trying to desicrate
No time at all to break away
Temptation still got a hold on me
Oh mama what have I gone and done?
With all these years that I've been gone
My life changed me way too fast
I don't know if I could last

Help me find my way, and mama save me
Help me find today, mama please come and save me, oh

Oh mama if you could've only seen
Everything I've done and where I've been
If only one thing I would ask
Why did you let me grow up so goddamn fast?

Help me find my way, and mama save me
Help me find today, mama please come and save me, oh

There's nothing more that you can do
It's gone beyond what you can't help me through
An emptiness has covered me
Oh mama come and save me

Help me find my way, and mama save me
Help me find today, mama please come and save me, oh
Help me find my way, and mama save me
Help me find today, mama please come and save me, oh

There's nothing more that you can do
It's gone beyond what you can't help me through
An emptiness has covered me
Oh mama come and save me
Oh mama come and save
Oh save me... no!
Oh please mama save...
Oh man, I'm tired and lonely
Again, why must it be
A man is drowning slowly
And he can't keep above 
Gone way to deep, oh yeah

Open skies are falling 
Tears are coming down
Like a drop of rain falls to the ocean
And comes back around
One rainy day

Oh so many times I should've crawled when I went running by
And since then I've been left feeling traumatized 
Raped and drained of an innocence
A gift we've lost over time
And still I gaze through this one rainy day
Alone with no one by my side

Open skies are falling 
Tears are coming down
Like a drop of rain falls to the ocean
And comes back around, yeah
I swear I've given, I've given you all I can
Never will you ever make me feel this way again, oh
On this one rainy day

Hey, open skies are falling
Tears are coming down
Like a drop of rain falls to the ocean
And comes back around
One rainy day
One rainy day
Oh one rainy day
It's been just, one rainy day
Strut on by like a king
Telling everybody they know nothing
And long live what you thought you were
And time ain't on your side anymore (anymore)

And so you tell me I
Can't take my chances
But I told you one too many times
And you were crying like a bitch

I'm tougher than nails
I can promise you that
Step out of line
And you get bitch-slapped back
And you can run
Your little mouth all day
But the hand of god
Just smacked you back into yesterday

And so you tell me I
Can't take my chances
But I told you one too many times
And you were crying like a bitch

And you wonder why
No one can stand you
And there's no denying
You were crying like a bitch
You were crying like a bitch

Blinded by your sacred faded past times
Only time is your enemy
Granted a second chance
To prove that your arrogance
Is stronger than you'll ever be
Is stronger than you can be

Oh stronger than you can be
Oh stronger than you can (be)

And so you tell me I
Can't take my chances
But I told you one too many times
And you were crying like a bitch

And you wonder why
No one can stand you
And there's no denying
You were crying like a bitch

You were crying like a bitch
You were crying like a bitch
You were crying like a bitch

Oh Bitch
Yeah! 
Grown from a seed of hope I've never known 
Been raised by the surroundings of a home so cold, so cold 
If I only knew what I know 

I'll shake my fist up to the sky 
Just keeping my dreams alive 
I'm one part saint and two part sinner, 
And the last part is still on the line 

We pray even when we know nobody cares, ah ya 
And make everything we know turn into fear 
And then disappear 
If I only knew what I know 

I'll shake my fist up to the sky 
Just keeping my dreams alive 
I'm one part saint and two part sinner, 
And the last part is still on the line 

I'll shake my fist up to the sky 
Just keeping my dreams alive 
Im one part saint and two part sinner, 
And the last part is still on the line 
Ya... Ya... Ya... 
Eye for an eye they told me for some time 
No way to hide from what's inside, what's inside of me! 

I'll shake my fist up to the sky 
Just keeping my dreams alive 
I'm one part saint and two part sinner, 
And the last part is still on the line 

I'll shake my fist up to the sky 
Just keeping my dreams alive 
Im one part saint and two part sinner, 
And the last part is still on the line
Here we go! 

Dance with the devil inside of me 
I'm longing for a second chance 
And taste what seems to remind me 
of all my skulls and skeletons 

Live and let live 
Die and let die 
War and peace in my hand - my temptations 
This war and peace inside will take me to the end 

Hell awaits 
its closing in on me 
it strokes its hand down on my back 
and no more mistakes 
my intentions are finally clear from how I've always been 

Live and let live 
Die and let die 
Live and let live 
Die and let die 
War and peace in my hand - my temptations 
This war and peace inside wont end 
War and peace in my hand, yah 
This war and peace inside will take me to the end 

War and peace in my hand - my temptations 
This war and peace inside wont end 
War and peace in my hand, yah 
This war and peace inside my head will take me to the end
In this life I'm me,
Just sitting here alone
By the way I tried to say I'd be there
For you
Walk the silent emptieness
That leads me by my hands
And throw away
What I don't understand, as a man

Love-Hate-Sex-Pain
It's complicating me sometimes
This love-Hate-Sex-Pain
it's underestimated lies

And I wonder as I tear away my skin
It's taken me so long to stitch
These wounds from where I've been
And mother please don't bury me
I'm begging for my life
It's hard to say that I will be complete
Before I die

Love-Hate-Sex-Pain
It's complicating me sometimes
This love-Hate-Sex-Pain
it's underestimated lies

Don't you worry please
Don't you leave me
Because I surely slip away
Though love, hate, sex, and pain
I fall away into
Love, hate sex, and pain

Love-Hate-Sex-Pain
It's complicating me sometimes
This love-Hate-Sex-Pain
it's underestimated lies

Love-Hate-Sex-Pain
It's complicating me sometimes
This love-Hate-Sex-Pain
it's underestimated lies
Been disconnected for so long 
And left my mark here along the way 
So many years have come and gone 
So many fears have remained the same 

I see a faith 
I swim and play 
Yet drowning all possibilities 
Beyond what I believe and know 
I cut the cord free of home again 

It turns to silence 
A silence sometimes I can hear 
Internal violence 
A struggle deep within what if 

What if I leave, could I still breathe 
What if I breathe, could I still be 
And if I leave, would I be me 

I lost my hope along the way 
I lost my hope along the way 

It turns to silence 
A silence sometimes I can hear 
Internal violence 
A struggle deep within what if 

What if I leave, could I still breathe 
What if I breathe, could I still be 
And if I leave, would I be me 

What if 
What if 
What if 

It turns to silence 
A silence sometimes I can hear 
Internal violence 
A demon deep within what if 

What if I leave, could I still breathe 
What if I breathe, could I still be 
And if I leave, would I be me 

What if 
What if 
What if
One step back from a beat down maniac 
I'm tired of taking a back seat from all the other demons 
that are stealing all the good shit 
leaving me with nothing but my hands 

Another stroke down my back tasting all the flames that are 
licking around my neck and making me insane 
as they pull me down, pull me down into my grave 
I can't get away 

Ooooh, it doesn't mean nothing 
until your deep inside dancing to the Devil's swing 
Whoa, it doesn't mean a God damn thing 
dancing to the Devil's swing. 

Spit down inside I'm begging for another ride 
I'm trying to find a way to keep it all and 
satisfy the needs I'm craving and 
I'm not taking it lightly 
Oh no! 

I'm living inside, a dead lie 
controlled by the Devil's eyes and I don't mind it 
Draw my ace up and roll my snake eyes nightly 
Hold on baby! 

Ooooh, it doesn't mean nothing 
until your deep inside dancing to the Devil's swing 
Whoa, it doesn't mean a God damn thing 
until your deep inside dancing to the Devil's swing. 

Whoa, dancing, dancing to the Devil's swing. 

Play with my insanity 
Live inside my darken dreams, my darken dreams 
hail to the Devil's swing 

Ooooh, it doesn't mean nothing 
until your deep inside dancing to the Devil's swing 
Whoa, it doesn't mean a God damn thing 
until your deep inside dancing to the Devil's swing. 
Whoa, it doesn't mean a God damn thing, a God damn thing 
dancing to the Devil's swing.
Who really knows what rights all the wrongs anyway?
Who really cares what people do or say?
No matter where this life takes me
I'll never let it compromise
Too much luck to bet it on do or die

Cuz I've seen everything that I could see
And now I can say goodbye today
With all I know
Its time I said goodbye
Today is a good day to die

Lived by the rules you that you gave me and fell apart
All the wrong turns down a dead end street so far
I stretch my wings and breathe in different day
Alone and broken is the price I pay
But that's ok

I've seen everything that I could see
And now I can say goodbye today
With all I know
It's time I said goodbye
Today is a good day to die

Never fought out alive
Taking all I can take
It's time to say goodbye
It's a good day to die

Cuz I've seen everything that I could see
And now I can say goodbye today
With all I know
Its time I said goodbye
Today is a good day to die
When will it ever end and when will my life begin... 

No sweat, no regrets run down my back 
A fine line just right before I crack 
oh man to see me and then wave your finger up in my face 
Believing in what you say and promising another day 

Will it ever end, when will my life begin 
All this built up pain forever plaguing me 
Its the last time, its my lifeline 
Its the last time that I'll be forever shamed 

No breath and disrespecting all my time 
Dividing and speaking out of line 
Tell me the reason oh everybody needs to feel your pain 
So draw the line back to me 
and save me from insanity 

Will it ever end, when will my life begin 
All this built up pain forever plaguing me 
Its the last time, its my lifeline 
Its the last time that I'll be forever shamed 

When will it ever end, when will my life begin 
All this built up pain forever plaguing me 
Its the last time, its my lifeline 
Its the last time that I'll be forever shamed 

Ha, ha! 

Will it ever end, when will my life begin 
All this built up pain forever plaguing me 
Its the last time, its my lifeline 
Its the last time that I'll be forever shamed 

When will it ever end, when will my life begin 
All this built up pain forever plaguing me 
Its the last time, its my lifeline 
Its the last time that I'll be forever shamed 

Forever shamed! Forever!
Anywhere I go, anything I try 
Anyone I love is compromised 

Everyone I see, staring on back at me 
Why can't you let me be 

Ohhh, so far from home being shallow and alone 
and why can't you see its tearing away what I used to be 
I'm a shadow of a soul 

I don't know how to run, I don't know where to hide. 
The old me is dead and gone inside 

What will you think of me, when all that you'll ever see 
is only a part of the other me. 

Ohhh, so far from home being shallow and alone 
and why can't you see its tearing away what I used to be 
I'm a shadow of a soul 

Ohhh, I'm so far from home being shallow and alone 
and why can't you see its tearing away what I used to be 
I'm a shadow of a soul
