In the darkest hole, you'd be well advised
Not to plan my funeral before the body dies, yeah Come the morning light, it's a see through show What you may have heard and what you think you know, yeah Let the sun never blind your eyes Let me sleep so my teeth don't grind Hear a sound from a voice inside Sure to play a part, so you love the game And in truth your lies become one and same, yeah I could set you free, rather hear the sound Of your body breaking as I take you down, yeah Let the sun never blind your eyes Let me sleep so my teeth don't grind Hear a sound from a voice inside In the darkest hole, you'd be well advised Not to plan my funeral before the body dies, yeah Let the sun never blind your eyes Let me sleep so my teeth don't grind Hear a sound from a voice inside |

I could use some time to curl away
My aggression is where you stake your claim Why I question this curve on which you grade My conception, a joke or latest craze? I try to get away, and yet I stick around So fall and crawl away, and brush away loose ground My intention, may I arrive at eight? Lie and dream some, surprise you guys I'm late All right, correction, forgetting something, wait I try to get away, and yet I stick around So fall and crawl away, and brush away loose ground Brush away loose ground Brush away |

You insult me in my home, you're forgiven this time
Things go well, your eyes dilate, you shake, and I'm high? Look in my eyes deep and watch the clouds change with time 20 hours won't print my picture milk carton size Carton size, carton size Call me up congratulations ain't the real why There's no pressure besides brilliance let's say by day 9 Endless corporate ignorance lets me control time By the way, by the way, by the way Once again you see an in, discolored skin gives you away So afraid you kindly gurgle, out a date for me Now the body of one soul I adore wants to die You have always told me you'd not live past 25 I say stay long enough to repay all who cause strife Once again you see an in, discolored skin gives you away So afraid you kindly gurgle, out a date for me (spoken in backround) "I bear true and an existing witness to this barrel of monkeys. A self proclaimed immoral success, perfected by each whereof individually deadly and equally so and spread about the surrendered troops, for even thousands of miles will not tear apart their communication, or the lack thereof. Vultures, liars, thieves, each proclaim their innocence In no suggestion or rhyme, your weapon is contained in the wrecking of the keeping the desired effect. The breaking of the spirit thwarts the whole being. Your weapon is guilt, your weapon is guilt, your weapon is guilt. Guilt." |

What does friend mean to you?
A word so wrongfully abused Are you like me, confused All included but you Alone... The sounds of silence often soothe Shapes and colors shift with mood Pupils widen and change their hue Rapid brown avoid clear blue Why's it have to be this way Be this way Flowers watched through wide brown eyes bloom A child sings an unclaimed tune Innocence spins cold cocoon Grow to see the pain too soon Why's it have to be this way Be this way (5x) "At 7 am on a Tuesday, usual August ... Next week I'll be 28... I'm still young, it'll be me... Off the wall I scrape... you... I can't wake, I gotta wake... To cause this wake, I gotta wake no more... It causes wake, to drown this hate.... To never really stay, never will..... You take your plate... Put me through hell, live, live... Direct your fate... You say I can do it so well... Your expiration date... Fate, date, expiration date... (this was the last time) Hate... And don't fuck with me again... My own clean slate... Don't fuck with me again... Makes your eyes dilate... Makes you shake... Irate..." |

So young, so brazen, so unholy
I come to you in painted skies Your broken saint, your ancient story The living challenge to their lies Trapped in the cold outside There ain't no shelter And they wanna force my hand Until I... Take what I wanted and break all the lies That they feed the fuckin' liars Smash all the temples and crawl through the rubble And cry to the fallen I'm the last of my kind still standing I'm the last of my kind still standing down the law... A wolf alone upon the hillside I live on what they throw away I go to sleep behind the eight ball I live to fight for one more day I'm trapped in the cold outside There ain't no shelter They wanna force my hand 'Til I... Take what I wanted and break all the lies That they feed the fuckin' liars Smash all the temples and crawl through the rubble And cry to the fallen Last of my kind still standing Last of my kind still standing |

Time to change has come and gone
Watched your fears become your god It's your decision It's your decision Overwhelmed you chose to run Apathetic to the stunned It's your decision It's your decision You feed the fire that burned us all When you lied To feel the pain that spurs you on Black inside No one plans to take the path that brings you lower And here you stand before us all and say it's over It's over It might seem an afterthought Yes it hurts to know you're bought It's your decision It's your decision You feed the fire that burned us all When you lied To feel the pain that spurs you on Black inside It's your decision It's your decision No one plans to take the path that brings you lower And here you stand before us all and say it's over It's over It's over |

Hear footsteps creak the floor
The shadows give way Someone outside the door Won't let 'em in Life damaged, gears to grind A rundown, broke machine That steals your peace of mind Before you know, it's gone... (Lay down, lay...) Silence burning, hold your tongue Keep us separate, sullen, dumb Hiding in a darkness under Boiling to the surface, stumble, fall A looking in view, too long on the outside Desperate plans make sense in a low life These things I hate in you Also reflect it seems Distortion laced with spite Takes you out of me... Silence burning, hold your tongue Keep us separate, sullen, dumb Hiding in a darkness under Boiling to the surface something Crawling on your skin, discomfort Makes you break and run, stumble, fall A looking in view, too long on the outside Desperate plans make sense in a low life It's why you never tell me whatever's on your mind A looking in view, too long on the outside Desperate plans make sense in a low life It's why you never tell me whatever's on your mind |

Run, run 'til you drop
Hide, everyone knows We all trade in never-befores Selling out for the score Pray, squeal when you're caught Cry, it's not my fault Time to trade in never-befores Selling out for the score It seems you prophesized, all of this would end Were you burned away when the sun rose again Hate, long wearing thin Negative, all you've been Time to trade in never-befores Selling out for the score It seems you prophesized, all of this would end Were you burned away when the sun rose again |

You tried to kill me off
Surprised, I remain A scale tips, impossible Afraid of my own name And I always paid attention to all the lines you crossed Forgive this imperfection, it shows, I know I am the child that lives and cries in the corner Dies in the corner Unloved inside your mind Intent obsolescence Built into the system Intent obsolescence Built into the system Intent obsolescence Built into the system Intent obsolescence Built into the system Intent obsolescence Built into the system Intent obsolescence Built into the system I tried to shake it off You can't remove this stain A scale breaks, impossible Afraid we are the same And you never paid attention to all the lines I crossed Forgive this imperfection, it shows, I know I am the child that lives and cries in the corner Dies in the corner Unloved inside your mind Hides in a corner Dies in a corner Unloved inside your mind Intent obsolescence Built into the system Intent obsolescence Built into the system Intent obsolescence Built into the system Intent obsolescence Built into the system Built into the system |
