1. No One To Blame
Think fast/ knee jerk reaction/ five fingers turn into a fist/ and it slams over and over/ frustration just walked away/ you’re always ahead of the action/ process all the things you ignore/ step back, and begin dissention/ onto the killing floor/ immediately you will disagree/ either way, it makes no difference to me/ and you’ve got one else to blame/ except yourself/ you put your hand into the flame and burnt yourself/ seek out and search for something/ but it keeps eluding you/ your past has got the answers/ and it’s hunting you down like a dog/ you’re always ahead of the action/ process all the things you ignore/ step back, and begin dissention/ onto the killing floor/ immediately you will disagree/ either way, it makes no difference to me and you’ve got no one else to blame/ except yourself/ you put your hand into the flame and burnt yourself/ and then a crack in the sky opened up/ and all the innocence fell below
2. Burn The Evidence
We all need therapy, ‘cause God never seems to listen/ Open up the pharmacy, and you’ll hear the angels crying/ I never sleep/ She’s lying on the plastic beach/ and it’s reflecting right at me/ I never sleep/ Burn the evidence/ I fill the void when I’m fucking you/ locked in the white room with no view/ it’s irrelevant/ my life is quickly turning to/ a catch 22/ I’ve lost all self control/ there’s no light in this hole/ it will destroy me, break me/ set me up to fail/ I’m like a time bomb/ chemical, comatose, medical, overdose/ counting tiles on the ceiling/ forty-five or sixty-seven/ the telephone’s always ringing/ this conversation’s going nowhere/ ahhhh insomniac/ burn the evidence/ I fill the void when I’m fucking you/ locked in the white room with no view/ call the ambulance/ my life is quickly turning to / a catch 22!/I’ve lost all self control/ There’s no light in this hole/ it will destroy me, break me/ set me up to fail/ I’m like a time bomb/ chemical, comatose, medical, overdose/ as my life seems to fade/ one second isn’t a second at all/ ignore it but it never goes away
3. Cavalry
Back to the basics/ screwed on my head/ took a few years for myself/ couldn’t care less what they said/ walked out on the dream to look over the edge/ as blood fell from the sky/ all illusions lied/ amuse the amazing/ two left but we’re still winning/ I didn’t start the war/ I never asked for this/ you couldn’t break me/ call the cavalry/ all your rivers run dry/ the fear of failure, I can see it in your eyes/ call the cavalry/ your revolution has died/ saved all my aces/ just for this hand/ takes a real man to admit/ when he’s buried in the sand/ I’m fully awake and prepared to withstand/ all the negativity is removed from me/ questions with no reply/ it’s ironic but I’m still satisfied
4. The Joke's On You
The hill you have to climb is steep and high/ It’s getting harder to see/ the ship is sinking and you cannot swim/ hands waving in the air…/ end of the race/ red in the face/ cause you cannot keep up with the pace/ you’re a disgrace/ and despicable/ exhausted you collapse into the mud/ eyes burning from your tears/ you crawl your way back up to your feet/ only to fall back…./ end of the race/ red in the face/ ‘cause you cannot keep up with the pace/ you’re a disgrace/ ad despicable/ vanity case/ you’ve been replaced/ so you better learn how to embrace/ That lonely place, so predictable/ I don’t think the audience would disagree/ you wouldn’t be here without me/ you pound your chest like you just won the war/ the joke’s on you/ but you think the joke’s on me/ fighting an enemy that’s invisible/ this ends the love affair….
5. Hollywood
She came to Hollywood/ To be a big star/ now you can find her/ in the back of a car/ she’s doing things she never thought she would do/ down on Melrose Avenue/ now was it good for you?/ no more auditions, she’s taken the role/ she might deny it, she’s lost all control/ another victim of the status quo/ try to put the fire out with gasoline/ she’s such a libertine, she’s only seventeen/ drown yourself in nothing but amphetamines/ another drama queen, here comes the guillotine/ she’s growing tired / of all of their games/ all she’s aspired/ has gone up in flames/ the meritocracy has become the norm/ she’s all tattered and torn/ quiet before the storm/ locked in her bathroom/ doing lines in Bel Air/ morally bankrupt/ she’s a millionaire/ there’s no reflection from her vacant stare/ try to put the fire out with gasoline/ she’s such a libertine, she’s only seventeen/ drown yourself in nothing but amphetamines/ another drama queen, here comes the guillotine/ dearly departed/ taken so young/ it makes no difference to everyone
6. Dear Enemies
Take all the spite that you’re saving up for me/ And make some room, ‘cause you know you’re gonna need it/ no one to blame for your failed attempts at life/ so long you fucking hypocrites/ Get out! Get out! Right now, just get out!/ GET OUT!!!/ Convince yourself that the world is after you/ and wonder why all that glitters ain’t gold/ here’s some advice, you better listen up/ pack it in, ‘cause I’m back in control/ you fucking sell outs, sell out, you’re done/ you sold out, sold out/ so long, so long, you’re done, you sold out! Sold out!/ Dear enemies, accept your defeat/ you’ve got nothing to gain and even less to lose/ come clarity, revenge is sweet/ you might have started the war, but I will finish it/ each single move, it just seems s desperate/ put on a face that your friends will recognize/ sink to new lows, but it makes no difference/ I can see through you, you dirty parasite/ Get out! Get out! Right now, just get out!/ GET OUT!!!/ It’s gonna get worse before it gets better/ just like a dog that’s all bark and no bite/ so long, so long, you’re done, you sold out!/ Sold out!/ Dear enemies, accept your defeat/ you got nothing to gain and even less to lose/ come clarity, revenge is sweet/ you might have started the war, but I will finish it…
7. Land Of Make Believe
I awake each day, destined for failure/ and I keep digging myself deeper and deeper… down/ you’re in the land of make believe/ there’s none for you, it’s all for me/ your satisfaction’s guaranteed/ there’s none for you it’s all for me/ I’m still whoring myself/ the well is running / a prisoner of my past and sentenced to live it/ over and over again…. / you’re in the land of make believe/ there’s none for you, it’s all for me/ your satisfactions is guaranteed/ and if at first you don’t succeed/ there’s none for you, it’s all for me/ it’s such a tangled web you weave/ go feed your misery/ go bathe in agony/ you’re stripped of bravery
8. Pork Sword
Turn off the lights/ no one’s around/ the TV’s on/ but there’s no sound/ the stage is set/ a dressing gown/ the pig is greased/ and going down!!/ here’s to the private celebration/ you’re the only one that ever knows/ you remove all your frustrations/ all hands on deck steady as she goes/ glorification, pulverization, exhilaration, / nothing compares to this/ the more I need it, the more I feel it/ appreciation, infatuation/ the more I feel it, the more I need it/ you start to sweat/ you pull it tight/ you’re short of breath/ it feels alright/ the punishment for you naughty girls/ your parting gift a string of pearls/ here’s the private celebration/ you’re the only one that ever knows/ you removed all your frustrations/ all hands on deck, steady as she goes/ imagination, retaliation, evacuation/ nothing compares to this/ the more I need it the more I feel it/ manipulation, paralyzation/ the more I feel it, the more I need it/ the pretty disease/ you’re aiming to please/ now fall to your knees/ and swallow it, swallow it/ and choke on a high/ you’re lonely goodbye/ it’s leaving you dry/ no beg for it, beg for it/ the porno parade/ you dropped a grenade/ call in the brigade/ and let loose the cannon balls/ and starting to slip/ so tighten your grip/ and down goes the ship/ now swallow it
9. Unraveling
Enter my guilty plea, only one guarantee/ sure you will all agree, I’m the inductee/ the award goes to, the award goes to you!/ echoes from the past, you will never last/ walking on broken glass/ this will be a simulcast/ the award goes to, the award goes to you!/ I put the curse I create/ on the shoulders of those I hate/ they are lying unconscious, barely breathing/ I’m not gonna be mislead/ seeing a common thread/ unraveling/ we’d like to nominate/ everyone that is fake/ burn them at the stake/ to keep them all awake/ the award goes to, the award goes to you!/ send out a casting call/ line them up on the wall/ shoot them with Demerol/ just following protocol/ the award goes to, the award goes to you!/ unraveling….
10. Careless Coma
I am not the man/ That I want to be/ But I’m a better man/ Then I used to be/ On this battleground/ You will wear the crown/ This loves watered down/ got my answer/ lost the race before the start/ amusing/ put the cart before the horse/ confusing/ all along I knew it was wrong/ but it felt so fucking right/ but an arrow through your heart/ careless coma/ I’m a loser it’s true/ but I lose for you/ and if you knew the truth, you would lose it to/ it’s a slippery slope/ with this loathsome rope/ I’m just trying to cope with your distance/ lost the race before the start/ amusing/ put the cart before the horse/ confusing/ all along I knew it was wrong/ but it felt so fucking right/ but an arrow through your heart/ careless coma.
