1. The Reckoning
Come to me, kill for me, worship me
Follow everything I do, act it out before me.
I'm the one they told you would come again.
Let me show you all the signs to bring about the end.
I'll take you down
To a hole where you will always be alone.
I'll turn you out
On a world that doesn't care if you belong.
I'll push you off
Of the throne that you erected for yourself.
You will be tossed
On the pile of all the filth that you created.
I watched you take the power in your hands and throw it all away.
I knew you would fall down again someday.
Come on now you know I won't hurt you.
Come on now I'm here to protect you.
Come on now I'll lead you to shelter.
Come on now you know.
I'll take you down
To a hole where you will always be alone.
I'll turn you out
On a world that doesn't care if you belong.
I'll push you off
Of the throne that you erected for yourself.
You will be tosed
On the pile of all the filth that you created.
2. I Sell Society
Don't go over there, that vulture is gonn get you.
Come and bathe in my protective neon glow.
Plug into my machine, perfect and so clean.
Plastic lives are all that's left so get in line.
Tell me all your problems I've got just the thing to fix it.
Sell it to you for this bargain basement price.
I'll protect you from yourself and all the trouble that surrounds you.
Did you know that this world's not very nice?
I sell society.
You won't hear lies from me.
I'll tell you everything you want to hear.
I sell society.
You won't hear lies from me.
I'll sell you everything you want to buy.
Your world has spikes on his back and he wants to lay you down
Don't like what i say, you best not go away
Take a look into my bag of wonders
I'll pull out something special just for you
Don't tell anyone
It'll be our secret
A weak and tainted soul i stole from you know who
You want to buy it back, I'll have to charge you for two...
I sell society
You won't hear lies from me
I'll tell you everything you want to hear
I sell society
You won't hear lies from me
I'll sell you everything you want to buy..
3. Inside You
I'm not reaching you
Everything you do
Leads to my disgrace
Show me your face
I can see myself inside of you
I can see myself inside of you
What's beneath the flesh
Hate you can't express
I can trick myself
Like everybody else..
I can see myself inside of you
I can see myself inside of you
Look inside my head
Imbedded with the knowledge
Deep within my skin
That I will never know where to begin
You image is above me
Far beyond my reach
I stand alone and wait for you to teach
I'm obessed with everything you do
I won't stop until you say its through
I can see myself inside of you
I can see myself inside of you
4. Sinking
Standing in the back of the line
I feel the others try to push me down and keep it away from me
Grabbing at the one thing that i know is mine
Can't you see me with my head to the floor
feel the recklessness of absolute desperation
Valued Sentimental pieces of the life I thought held in my hands
Why do I always try
To better what I am
Can't realize that I've always been sinking
Failing everyday
It only helps to aggravate
The sickening feeling inside that won't go away
Fall Down
Pick yourself up and fall down
This is what its like to be me, me
Can't you see what I see
Why do I always try
To better what I am
Can't realize that I've always been sinking?
What I am is what I feel
But what I feel is nothing real
And what I know is all I want
Is to be saved from this spot
Is to be saved from this spot
Why do I always try
To better what I am
Can't I realize that I've always been sinking
5. Tired Old Man
I want to be overcome
But I can't, I am numb
I want to see what's become
Close my eyes, bite my tongue
If you'll believe in me I'll try not to die
If work keeps me living its got to start giving me life
I'm so tired of living here
I'm so tired of living here
I want to run and be free
But I can't, I'm so weak
I want to hold you again
In my arms, my old friend
I have just one more chance to feel
What is real
I can't keep going I feel my mind slowing
My heart's torn apart
I'm so tired of living here
I'm so tired of living here
6. Break You Down
I got a gun in my hand and I feel like a man
I'm the pope of my generation
I got to push over your god damn walls
I don't listen to your condemnation
Can't you see the pain that you bring
Is only the cost of everything
That you wish to stop and bring to an end
But it only makes me hate you more
Careful what you wish for
It can only bring you down
Keep your spirit on the ground
Emptiness the only sound
I know what it takes to break you
And I'll kill everything that made you
(And I know what it takes to break you down)
Take everything that you teach me
And it don't add up to a pile of shit
All the methods you use you tried to reach me
They don't matter a single bit
I'm alright inside, I'm just trying to hide
From all the propaganda you want to choke me with
Keep your face away, keep your hands away
Don't want your fingers in and out of my life
I know what it takes to break you
(I know what it takes to break you down)
And I'll kill everything that made you
(I know what it takes to break you down)
I know what it takes to break you
And I'll kill everything that made you
7. Penetrate
I've got nothing to penetrate
And I've got nothing to elevate
I can't seem to concentrate
Cause I've got nothing to consecrate.
I wouldn't know the solution.
Cause this ain't my revolution.
I practice my prostitution
And spread the people's pollution.
I've got nothing to mediate
And I've got nothing to dedicate
I can't seem to separate
Cause I've got nothing to liberate.
I wouldn't know the solution.
Cause this ain't my revolution.
I practice my prostitution
And spread the people's pollution.
I've got no one to aggravate
And I've got no one to emulate
You want me to assimilate
But I'm not going to imitate.
8. Backstander
I wish I was free now
You drive me into a place
Where I barely can hide from you
Moments at a time
You know I never sleep
To keep myself away from you
I'm always turning around to see you standing on my back
Sometimes I find that my delivery is all the same
And when I look at you, I instinctively start the game
I never see what you mean when you
Start to weep and scream at me
Oh no, the ringing in my head again
Oh no, you're ripping off my face again
You know I never sleep
To keep myself away from you
I'm always turning around to see you standing on my back
You're just a pretty face
You're just a pretty face
You know I never sleep
To keep myself away from you
I'm always turning around to see you standing on my back
9. Eleanor Rigby
Eleanor Rigby
Picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been.
Lives in a dream,
Waits at the window,
Wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door.
Who is it for?
All the lonely people,
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people,
Where do they all belong?
Father McKenzie
Writing the words of a sermon that no one will hear.
No one comes near.
Look at him working
Darning his socks in the night when there's nobody there.
What does he care?
All the lonely people,
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people,
Where do they all belong?
Ah, look at all the lonely people...
Ah, look at all the lonely people...
Eleanor Rigby
Died in the church and was buried along with her name.
Nobody came.
Father McKenzie
Wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave.
No one was saved.
All the lonely people,
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people,
Where do they all belong?
Ah, look at all the lonely people...
Ah, look at all the lonely people...
10. 2000 Years Of Human Error
I thought you'd tell me the truth
But when you opened your mouth out came a family of lies
The book we already read
Could never helpus from your conglomeration of lies
You probably believe what you told me
A never-ending cycle of greed
Pass it down to each generation
Another flock of sheep to mislead
Scratch me harder
Til I bleed
God the father
Spreads his seed
Liars, liars
You sell it all to me
lLars, liars
I'm what you'll never be
Give me something
Something real
Everything I see is nothing I can feel
Give me something
Something real
Everything I see is nothing I can feel
Liars, Liars
You sell it all to me
Liars, liars
I'm what you'll never be
11. I Hate Today
Slowly he settles down to give them what they want
He tries to keep himself together
I would slam my head into the ground
Before I'd tell you this
He turns his head to the floor
As it falls away
I'm a product of your hate
Just the one that you'd create
Is anyone listening to a word I say?
I hate today
You taught me everything I know
The blame will surely show
I tried to keep it down forever
The days have taken years
To conquer all my fear
I stand before you now
Sickened and cut down
I'm a product of your hate
Just the one you'd create
Is anyone listening to a word I say?
I hate today
