CORROSION OF CONFORMITY LYRICS

1. Heaven's Not Overflowing

I have been hunting on the I-10 with Jesus and a liar
And watched ancient man use a gun to retire
I've seen the wall fall down and crush the old
So now every body's hungry but they'd rather be cold
Let it go, let it go, let it go
Before we lose it all in time what's
Deserved always gets served
'Cause we stick therefore we can, break down end time
Hey fool haven't you heard heaven's not over flowing
And I been to a seance for the ku klux klan,
I've seen a brother kill another with his own bare hand
I've seen your rising son fall in your mama's eye
And now the cops got a medal but he calls it a prize.
Let it go, let it go, let it go
Before we lose it all in time
Blah blah blah blah blah,
'Cause we stick therefore we can break down end time
Hey fool haven't you heard haven's not over flowing
You know the rules only apply on the witness stand
At that you never get in trouble if you stick with your plan
That's why I'm living for the day like a necromancer
'Cause when you go you're gone take the pain back stabber.
Stick me & let it go...

2. "Albatross"

Well I'm feelin' left behind
Lord what a waste of time
They're coming to get you, run on
How can i respect your crime
When all you criminals whine
They bought and sold you
Run on, run on, yeah

Well you can call me crazy
Well you can call me wrong
Cause, see i was born a liar
Albatross, fly on, fly on

My home is kind
Man it pays to be blind, well
I promise to for get you, run on, yea
No swallowed pride, No conspiracy lies
Oh, broken promise of virtue, run on
Lord run on

Well you can call me lazy
But I know where I belong, cause
Cause i was born a liar
Albatross, fly on, fly on

With your trust in love
From your god above
Oh i believe
The albatross is me

Well you can call me crazy
You could call me wrong, cause
Cause i was born a liar
Albatross, fly on, fly on

I should have seen the signs
Now the memories fall behind
It was no big loss
Fly on albatross, yeah

3. Clean My Wounds

I see the world through blood shot eyes
Streets filled with blood from distant lies
The dogs of war never compromise,
No time for rearranging

Help me Jesus, help me clean my wounds
He said he cannot heal that kind
Bleeding soul becomes a bitter mind
He said it happens every time...

That's how the story goes
In the land of a 1000 no's
I'm all over you
In time my mind is changing

Knock it down

Black on black gives me a heart attack
And the silence makes it deadly
Some choose to kill with a simple will
I've seen them fall fast and steady

Help me Jesus help me clean my wounds
He said he cannot heal that kind
Bleeding soul bitter mind
He said it happens every time...

Knock it down

That's how the story goes
In the land of a 1000 no's
I'm all over you
In time my mind is changing

Twist of fate won't give me a break
And myself I'm slow and tired
I've got to rise with these blood shot eyes
But I keep falling when I'm higher...

Help me Jesus help me clean my wounds
He said he cannot heal that kind
Bleeding soul bitter mind
He said it happens every time...

Knock it down

That's how the story goes
In the land of a 1000 no's
We are bleeding sins but our
Sins are always fading

Fading
Fading

Knock it down
Knock it down

4. Broken Man

Deep in the soul of a man who's seen it all- he stands alone with borrowed
I'm standing with two nothings new but they look at you with broken backs and bleeding minds
And tell you they know even though you fall behind
You'll be the one who walks the line standing tall
They're so fragile, but they always find you when you hide...
'Cause you're a broken man in a broken land
And don't they wish they were blessed like you.
The struggle inside of your mind is a waste of time - purest thoughts evaporate
Dark clouds reveal how you feel in your idle time - your own tail becomes the bait
You don't even know even though your blood flows,
Destroy yourself, you're the one you hate - standing tall
They're so fragile, but they always catch you when you're late...
'Cause you're a broken man in a broken land,
And don't they wish they were blessed like you.
Standing tall they look so small with your world upon their shoulders,
But a broken man on broken land looks far beyond his brothers...
Break for the sun you're the one, the chosen one, your time is up your time is due
Cracked like a whip from the hand of a broken man to find out that he's just like you
But you've seen it all in your mind, you've seen it all you built it up & they made it fall
Because you're killing yourself - you're so fragile, but they cannot crush you if you don't crawl..
No I'm a broken man in a broken land
Now I'm a broken man in a broken land...
And don't they wish they were blessed like you
And don't they wish they were blessed like you
And don't they wish they were blessed like you
And don't they wish they were blessed like you
And don't they wish they were blessed like you
Don't they wished they were
Blessed.

5. Señior Limpio

Sleeping on the wing
Busted flat and dusted boy your minds a terrible thing
Said the man with a dirty hand who claimed that he was king
Choking angels from inside trying to make them sing
'Cause your short of breath and close to death from sleeping on the wing
Dirty king, dirty king now you're strapped in for the ride
It's so hard to be a fighter when your hands are always tied.
Mr. Innocent blood says he kills but just for love
Too bad the good ones always have to take the blame
"hey" sharp tongue liar making pay in a bed of fire
Too bad your dreams are always made of losing games
Dirty king, dirty king now you're shrapped in for the ride,
It's so hard to be a fighter when your hands are always tied.
But I want to I want to I want to but my hands were always tied up
But I want to I want to I want to but my hands were always tied
And I wish I had myself a dime for every time I cursed your goddamn name...
Mister clean
Sweating on the line doing 40 wasting time
Ain't it funny how that money rots your brain?
Put your soul on trial 'cause you lost it all to a tiny vial
Look in the mirror when you tell me who's insane
Dirty king dirty king now you're strapped in for the ride,
it so hard to be a fighter when your hands are always tied.
But I want to but my hands are always tied up
But I want to I want to I want to but my hands were always tied up
But I wish I had myself a dime for every time I cursed your
Goddamn name..
Mister clean

6. Seven Days

Over time mistakes were few but I believe they, re mine
Faded mind youth was old and the years were so unkind
I'm the one I face the change I know that stands before me
Believe in me 'cause I damn sure don't believe in you
I cannot deny myself my anger and my pride
I cannot deny another lie
Waiting to find another spike right through my hand
Hope I'm killed before I die
Worlds divide, long ago the memory's still inside
Chances shine seven days our fears become entwined
Seasons change our time is gone our souls have
Grown much colder
Believe in me 'cause I dam sure don't believe in you
Never again are words that echo in my mind
Leaving still holds back the tide
Crucified with lies my blood turns into wine
Take a sip before I die
I cannot deny...
Before I...

7. My Grain

Grace, pride, tell me what's your name?
Crippled will with tomorrows pill
And I feel no pain but I can't remember
Whose to blame...
This is not my home
This is not my home
But the source was always known
Migraine
I beg, you steal, do you show me your signs of a sin
Blistered and torn by the pure & reborn
But there re just like us and remember
Man, they cave in...
This is not my home
This is
Migraine
Wicked goddamn bass licks war stone, do you write your name in trust?
Word to the wise my instincts rise
All your heroes are gone and the proud
Ones have turned to dust... Seven dust...
You can kill my pride but my heads still
Flying!
Migraine
Migraine
Migraine
Migraine

8. Deliverance

Is there no one to deliver you from your ignorance?
Maybe you'll look and see there be no deliverance.
Turn to vulture parasites who pray on lost souls
Suck the blood of hapless fools who give them control!
No deliverance
Pick your own deliverance
No deliverance
Sad domination by those who say more than you'll ever know
To the depths of dogma hollow
It's them you follow..
No deliverance!
Irredemption pure deception won't see what's if or true
Shutter your world and you won't be shut out
The devastating truth
Denial on on trial like a jumbo cap
Vile brother are you through??
No deliverance
Pick your own deliverance
No deliverance
Sad domination by those who say more than
You'll ever know
To the depths of dogma, hollow
It's them you follow
Bleeding inside breathing with pride
They to the line
We feed the crime with borrowed time select and find
No longer will they know
We amputate the shown...

9. Shake Like You

Beginning of this world selled with mankind
Who built a tool to kill a fool and lead the blind
Invent a rule to keep you down & call it sin
Then stand behind the wall and watch the games begin
Separate by class but keep the middle low
In still the order with a border just for show
Give them weapons and let them have their piece of mind
Then tip them off so they can kill what's not their kind & watch them shake like you
If tales come true when judgements due they'll call us all liars
And put us in their hell and set our souls on fire
Remember sin your only friend he brought you through
Hallucinate with hate and watch them shake like you...

10. Shelter

Once in awhile you'd be better listening to the fools for a change
I can see it in your eyes, it's the one who's not like you, you despise
I'm no different than you, it's just that I do whatever I want to
that's what sets us apart, I was free from the start, now you're leaving
tell me whose heart is bleeding
so once in awhile you'd be better listening to the fools for a change
What comes around follows and the truth becomes harder to swallow
so bang bang they shoot you down, no one says a word as your body hits the ground
oh pick her up and put her down the crowd screams aloud she's not breathing
and the only hand that reaches is the one alone you've been cheating my friend
tell me whose heart is bleeding again
so once in awhile you'd be better listening to the fools for a change
once in awhile you'd be better listening to the fools for a change

11. Pearls Before The Swine

Father forgive me
Mother forsake me
I think they've all become to strong
Brother believe me
Silence is deadly
And its giving me the strength to carry on
Time has come, now I'm blind, deaf & numb
You're killing me, you're killing me
When I look into your eyes I can see it's
The world that you despise
And you're giving me the strength to carry on
Forgive me...
Look for the devils in their eyes,
Laughing, the blood has long been dried.
To hide in your disguise it goes on & on & on...
Wallow, pearls before swine!
If the liar deceives you
Then the sin will appear true
Even if it leads me to the end
Killer accuse me
The devil breathes easy
- give in me the strength to carry on
Time has come, now I'm blind deaf & numb
Your killing me your killing
When I look into your eyes I can see it's
The world that you despise
And your giving me the strength to carry on
Look for the devils in their eyes,
Laughing the blood has long been dried
Tonight in your disguise it goes on& on
Wallow... pearls before swine
No you've blown away the sun
Darkened eyes & bitten tongue
Now you've blown away the son.
