1. Rot
You don't want to live or die
You don't want to even try
Only problem is you can't deny the very thing that's killing you
And when you think you've had enough
I'll be there to call your bluff
And your be begging for the very stuff
That feeds the pain inside of you
Like a moth to a burning flame
In the end it's all the same
Another loser in a losing game
Still searching for some chance to win
And you don't like the things I say
And you may wish I'd go away
But I make you a king for a day and fool forever
[Chorus]
I'm the one your running to
Cause you like the way I'm killing you
And that pain inside you hide from view
Self made misery
Rot (save me)
I'm the thoughts inside your brain
I'm the blood inside your veins
I'm your loss and your greatest gains
I'm everything you see and do
And what you don't seem to see
Despite your growing hate of me is my true identity
I am you
[Chorus]
Rot (save me)
2. Sick
I tried to find the light in me
The one that claims to "sets you free"
But all I found was anger, bitterness and pain
And everytime I turn around
Somethings there to knock me down
Seems that everything is simply done in vain
[Chorus]
Well I'm sick of being last in line
Sick of feeling left behind
Sick of everything this worlds become
I'm sick of all the things I see
I'm sick of watching helplessly
I'm sick of you
I'm sick of me and I'm
Sick of what I feel in me
So what's a broken man to do
Wait till this world is through with you?
Gather what's been left and face another day
And through it all I live and learn
To feed this hate and watch it burn
Sickened by a world I wish would go away
[Chorus]
3. Think About It
Run away turn away from the damage we have done
You can hide safe inisde till the debt collector comes
Comes little minds are giant binds that slowly bring us down
And our eyes from the lies till the cold truth could be found
[Pre-chorus]
And as we're sleeping
All those things come creeping
That we have chosen to ignore
There right outside your front door
[Chorus]
Better wake up quick
Cause the clocks still tick
Like a burning wick
I suggest you think about it
Be it come what may
You will dread that day
Heed these words I say
I suggest you think about it
The greed we serve helps preserve a place on the fast decline
Towards darkest days where evil ways have us pay the greatest fine
[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]
4. High
When the rain beats my window
And the clouds won't let the sun shine on me
I get lost to a place somewhere in outer space
Where I am free
[Pre-chorus]
Bathe me in your bright tomorrow
Sheltered by your leaves
Wash away the hurt and sorrow
All I want is to get myself
[Chorus]
High
High
Higher than the clouds in my sky
And I'm never gonna come down, no
I'm never coming back down
High
High
Higher than the clouds in my sky
I'm going home
As the night draws upon me
Weight of the world coming down on me
I can catch the flight tonight and everything will be alright
And everything is cool with me
[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]
5. Barely Breathing
You're all the same it's a crying shame
Another link in a growing chain of fools
Do as your told till you grow weak and old
Never dare to step outside the rules
[Pre-chorus]
Well I'm here on the outside and I've been looking in
And it's easy to recognize 'cause your soul has grown real thin
From lack of expression or individuality
Can't you see you're not free
[Chorus]
Don't you want to live
Don't you want to give
I believe there's something to live for
Or are we barely breathing
Don't you realize
Open up your eyes
When you gonna stand up and rise
Or are we barely breathing
Another clone from the plastic zone
Another monkey suit to add into the zoo
Where admissions cheap and rewards you reap
Leave an empty space inside of you
[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]
Wake up
[Chorus]
6. Fix On
I left myself wide open and let your lies inside
I should have seen this coming but I was hit broadside
Because the crap you sell me with your words and tricks
You just keep on pushing till you get your fix
[Pre-chorus]
Now you suck on the stones that you've bled
And your voice rings with lies in my head
And I choke on a rock in my throat
While you gloat and you bloat full of shit
[Chorus]
I think it turns you on
I think it gets you off
No matter what the cause
You'll get your fix on
I'm seeing right through you
I know the things you do
No matter what the cost
You'll get your fix on
I think you'd sell your own mother to have the things you crave
You'd rob a babies cradle, you'd rob a deadman's grave
Back stabbing junkie like a cheap crack whore
You forget your friends till you need some more
[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]
Get your fix
[Chorus]
7. This Way
In a world where not much means a thing
You made an offering of love and no one seems to care
It's sad as time goes marching by we need to justify
The lies we're selling to ourselves
Don't it leave you incomplete
All alone with your defeated pride
Lost innocence
You're searching for a reason
But you've lost it deep inside
[Chorus]
Things don't have to be this way
Why must there always be a price to pay?
No things don't have to be this way
If I could I'd fix those things done wrong
I'd build my world big and strong
And I would keep it to myself
Don't leave you incomplete
All alone with your defeated pride
Lost innocence
You're searching for a reason
But you've lost it deep inside
And a voice inside your head
Assuring of coming dread
Lets blame the world instead
It's so easy
[Chorus]
8. Pusher
The fairy tale is growing stale
And I don't want what you've got for sale
I guess I've strayed from the beaten trail
Of souls that lead to your door
[Pre-chorus]
Well I don't feel what you feel
And I don't care what it is that you think you deal
All I know is that I know what's for real
Cause I live it
[Chorus]
I'm not going out that way
No I'm not down with it
Dealers of hope and dealers of dope
Sell you false promises to help you cope
Well guess who's tugging at the end of the rope
That you'll be hanging from
[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus 2x]
9. Shame
Which way do we turn
Cause the darks coming down to be
The end all completely
Well you think we would learn
But I've found that stupidity
Governs the species
[Pre-chorus]
All all we have are broken dreams
Sleep filled nights are not quite
What they seem
[Chorus]
How the hell we gonna face tomorrow
When we're living in a world of sorrow
We waste away with the time we borrow
Lost to yesterday
Another reason found to hate your brother
Another way for us to kill each other
Ignore the tears of our dying mother
We all turn away
This is our shame
So slowly we fall into the void of some memories
Remembered by no one
And now after all maybe it was meant to be
And maybe it just had to be done
[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]
This is our pain
[Chorus]
This is our pain
10. Cursed
Every time I shoot for something
It amounts to less than nothing
I guess I've got to accept the way things are for me
Bottom man on the totem poll
Crying out from the deepest hole
Black sheep with a blacker soul
That's what has become of me
[Pre-chorus]
I need a good defense
I'm losing confidence
Happiness is now past tense
I'm running for cover
My bubbles often burst
Can things get any worse
Feel like I've got this curse
Hanging all over
[Chorus]
Every time I get my feet back on the ground
Something comes along and knocks me right back down
Hopes are crushed and hands are bound
That ancient evil eye seems stuck in my grey sky
Black clouds always seem to pry into my forecast
Can't take this rotten luck
Can't rise above the muck
Everything is bound to suck
How long wil this curse last
[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]
What have I done to deserve
The sentence that I serve
Find a way to preserve
My fading sanity
What have I done to deserve
The sentence that I serve
Forever to observe
My lifes calamity
[Chorus]
11. Supadupamachoman
He's driving in his fancy car
You find him at your local bar
Knock you out bathe in cologne
Never leaves the girls alone
He's loud and makes his presence known
He's a star
Clown
Why do you always have to be around
In my way
A major ass on grand display
[Chorus]
He's a supadupamachoman
If he can't fuck her no one can
He's a supadupamachoman
Designer clothes and a cheap suntan
Steroids pumping through his veins
He has three beers and goes insane
If he can't get laid he's gonna fight
So someone better show him love tonight
The home team lost and that ain't right
Your to blame
Clown
Why do you always got to bring us down
And I say
I wish that you would go away
You fucking clown
Why do you always got to be around
In my way
A major ass on grand display
[Chorus]
Disco dancing loudmouth fool
Really thinks he's ultra cool
He's the owner of that there bar stool
With his giant arms and two inch tool
[Chorus]
12. Blue Sky Lie
Felt the fool for far too long
Took some time but now I'm strong
Don't really matter who's right or wrong
When you feel like I do
Had your way with time to kill
Crush ones dreams and break ones will
Thought you'd won but I'm standing still
Despite what you do
[Pre-chorus]
So I guess I'll hold on tight to what I have
Though it's little
And I guess I'll fight the fight although my will
Has grown so brittle
Well the strories the same and it does me no good
Because you'd sell me your soul
If you only could
[Chorus]
Take your blue skies, deceit and your lies
And your cold eyes don't fool me no more
Take your blue skies cause I don't want to be blue anymore
Wounds will heal and lessons learn
Ashes left where hopes all burned
Stories change and pages turn
Despite what you do
[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]
Time may grant a brand new start
But the answers in your heart
Only I can find a way to make a new
And tomorrow may bring fear
At times too much to bear
And that's where I rise again
[Chorus]
