1. Watch Us Burn
Burn
It's time to die
Glued to the screen, ambition's grown tired
Mesmerized by gossip in a world expired
Good evening America. Tonight we feature
Anorexic beauty queens
Serial killer documentaries
Million dollar action scenes
Dry humping teenage magazines
Preaching pervert hypocrisy
Prescription drugs. Plastic Surgery
High school drama killing sprees
Arabian-Redneck conspiracies
There's never been a better time to die
Waiting to die. We're waiting to burn
We're begging for it
World torn to pieces, live on tv
In the flames we shall drown
All together we bleed
No time for commercials now
Sit back and burn
Watch us burn
Disease infested third world countries
Celebrity sex tapes, a bald Britney
No music anymore on MTV
The tomb of Christ. the frozen corpse of Disney
The racist entertainers and the oil wars
The Wallstreet snakes. the consuming whores
Cant just pretend to accept this shit anymore
Need to kill ourselves just to find a fucking cure
An apple a day keeps the doctor away
Yet The Garden of Eden still full of slaves
Chew it down and swallow
Choke and die
Ashes to ashes we all fall down
Stay the fuck away from me
Let us burn
Hey kids, don't touch that dial
Watch us burn
When we return, you get to play in the fire
Let us burn
2. Coming Apart
I'm a little teapot short and stout
Smash me apart and fucking spill me out
I'm a piece of shit
I'm a fucking mess
I'm a little wounded bird
I fell out of my nest
I've been busy tearing out my motherfucking mind
Don't wanna kill myself
Want to rip out my fucking eyes
To all the noises that live here
And the answers in my brain
To all the TV cameras
And the innocence they play
To the fucking cults
To the pop star teens
To the crooked politicians and the ones who believe
I've been busy tearing out my motherfucking mind
Don't wanna hurt myself
Want to rip out my fucking eyes
No other motherfucker gonna take me down now
When I am perfectly capable of destroying myself
Don't you fucking look at me
Your pity driven stare
I'm fucking flesh and blood
I'm just a man without a care
There's nothing to see here
So pass the fuck on by
You're so obsessed with money
But you can't take it when you die
'Cause in the end we're all the same
You're nothing better than me
We all get thrown into a hole
Six feet deep
I've been busy tearing out my motherfucking mind
Don't wanna shoot myself
Want to rip out my fucking eyes
No other motherfucker gonna take me down now
When I am perfectly capable of destroying myself
My eyes are sore
From all the shit I can't ignore
I feel I'm losing my vision
Don't let me hurt myself anymore
'Cause when I'm gone, the world is dead
I am God, you are shit
I am God, the world is dead
I am God, you are shit
3. Stress Related
I don't want to live like this
All pissed off and all stressed
From the everyday bullshit
I don't want to die like this
Some kind of angry fit
My heart will call it quits
But I'm...
Never gonna understand the office lingo
The cornball Christians that play bingo
The fast food rejects. The white collar snobs
The quota seeking pigs and the brain dead jocks
No. Never gonna be an American Idol
Not with this gut, no. Not with this smile
Never gonna be a rich celebrity
It seems wealth was never in the cards for me
I don't want to be like this
But nothing seems to fit
Since I got used to it
I can't see the sunshine
Too many dark clouds are in it's way
I lost all hope that I could last
In this land of the walking dead
It's such a waste, what I could do
But I'm stuck here with you
I hate everyone I work with
A bunch of miserable pricks
Cuz of the chances they missed
Everyone I meet is a rude selfish asshole
Apparently please and thank you is a hassle
Nobody's bothered by the state of the world
Or the late night commercial child porn girls
Light me a cigarette. Pour me a drink
Make me a wasteland
so I don't have to think about you
I should really deal with it
Become a hypocrite
Somehow buy into it
But it's the only way I know how to live
I can't shut it out
I can't take this shit
Still I'm...
So fed up with the mallrat punks
And the spoiled rotten white kids
Trying to be thugs
The popped collar douchebags
The spray on tan queens
Toupees, extensions, wigs, and weaves
So tired of all this crap on tv
The sugarcoated news and the talk show sleaze
The Hollywood gossip showing the worst
Of the silicone garbage. Thin as a corpse
I let the stress go to my head
I know someday soon I will be dead
It's not a waste. It gets me through
Being stuck here with you
4. The Dying Sound
I'm a danger to myself
But I'm a savior to everyone else
Cuz I'm a walking time bomb. Waiting for more
Stupid fucking people to ignite this war
So come to me
No one ever sees me coming
But they will surely hear the sound
Sound, sound, sound...
The beautiful dying sound
This is the end of me
I'm gonna go out loud
And leave the world with the sounds
I spread my blessings all over the place
I preach my deadly gospel to the human waste
Don't give a shit who you are motherfucker
Your body will be smashed to the ground
I hate this vision of shit that I see
Take this away from me before I make it bleed
No one know me
No one touch me
Only silence cures my sickness
Only violence can bring silence
Lock me up, through away the key
I'm your masochist messiah. Killing fantasy
Get down on your knees and pray for me
Death rattle, organs pop
Necks will snap then hearts will stop
Second coming can wait no more
Time to summon my final war
Yellow, red, black, and white
All the colors scream in fright tonight
5. The Fallen Idol
A simple disease
Simply explained
Contaminated my soul
And is devouring my veins
I try but can't stop
I can lie but can't talk
Can fly but can't walk
I feel as though I'll never stop falling
I don't know who I am
I don't know where I've been
I only know what I don't want to be
And where I don't want to end up
But I always seem to be there
To the place that scares
To the place that traps
And always seems to last
No escape, no hope
No gun, no rope
Can't live, can't die
Can't see even though I still have my eyes
Lost any ambition, which seems part of this evolution
Through all conditions
No matter how much the sun shines
It always seems to rain where I am
Cold and damp, I beg not to be damned
6. This Digital World
In this digital world
Full of artificial pride
Viruses and scams
Cowards and spies
We can't smoke a cigarette in the bar anymore
No polluting lungs while the liver gets fucked
Can't vote cuz what's the fucking point
When it's predestined no American voice
This is what we've become
Progress through cancer coated lies
This is what we've become
Zombies, cell phones drained our minds
Yesterday I saw a bright reflection
Today I see a big black fucking hole
(Failure to assimilate will result in prosecution
for criminal reality evasion)
Can't eat, can't breathe
Without catching some rare disease
Can't kiss, can't fuck
Germs of love will infect your blood
Yesterday
Stabbed in the back by our final ways
Gourmet meals in the microwave
Cooked fresh by radioactive rays
401K the sign of the slaves
But the dental insurance makes it worth the pain
Wake the fuck up
The world is falling down before your eyes
Motherfucker, are you fucking blind
It's too late
It's too late for you
You better lay your head back down to sleep little one
This will all soon just be a dream
Nothing will be what it seems
The pills should be taking effect any time now
This is the end of everything that's sacred
Just like the shit will attract the flies
The truth will always be covered with lies
Everything so fake
Everything so easy
Technology has replaced our souls
Is anyone creative anymore
Does anyone use their brain anymore
Is anyone breathing
Are we just too lazy
Is anyone still alive
Technology keeps evolving
But we've the lost the human touch
The end is near
7. The Sad History Of The World
We always catch on late
After we hurt the ones who care
And then we cry for ages
Yet we never learn to share
The teachings of our fallen heroes
To those who are different
We just repeat this deadly cycle
And become abhorrent
This is it, this is how we sealed our fate
By our hate, by our choice to discriminate
Every messenger we shall incriminate
We bleed the freak and then suffer from our mistake
What we need is some faith and discipline
We need to wash all this innocent blood off our skin
Access the ignorance, the secrets, the lies, and the sin
Reflect on errors of the past and let a future begin
We are monkeys with ammo
Nothing advanced more
We are a needy fucking species
We are dogs of war
Jesus Christ and Pontius Pilate
Martin Luther King and the L.A. riots
This is the sad history of the world
The people that we hate, then we kill, never
learn
Hitler, Bush, and Napoleon
Adam and Eve and the original sin
Lessons lost in time; hatred reoccurs
The sound of scraping metal, the earth can barely turn
Hiroshima and Vietnam
Albert Einstein's atomic bomb
The suffering still continues and always will until the end of time
Why do we expel the ones that could save us?
Maybe it's time that we shut up and listen
Abraham Lincoln, John F. Kennedy
A fatal shot to democracy
Area 51, cancer and AIDS
The holocaust and the crusades
The truth is buried
We kill what we don't understand
Maybe it's time to expand our feeble minds
8. Face To Face
Who is responsible for all this mess
Is it manmade or something that our brains can not digest
This is the time, this is the place
Is this the way it's supposed to be
Will it begin to make sense on the sad day when we leave
I want to meet your God face to face
Are we simply lost, misguided bastard children
Why have you forsaken me
Why do we torture innocent animals
When there's an overload of murdering convicts
These pieces of shit should be used as our experiments
Why do we spend so much on weight loss programs
Eat what you want but not like a slob
Then send the rest to the commercial for the ones who starve
This is the time
This is the place
I want to meet your God
Face to face
Why do we support a party keeping us buried at rock bottom
Why the fuck should these corporate assholes get tax breaks
While the rest of us can't even afford to drive
Why don't we burn every goddamn institution down
We want the truth
Or we will crush the fucking lies
Who is responisible for all this mess
Is it manmade or something our brains can not digest
This is the time, this is the place
Is this the way it's supposed to be
Will it begin to make sense on the sad day when we leave
I want to meet your God face to face
Are we simply lost, misguided bastard children
Why have you forsaken me
All this human sin has clouded your vision
Or is this what you've always seen
Where the fuck have you disappeared to
Where are you hiding or have we just hidden you
There is no power
There is no glory
This is not Earth
This is Purgatory
Why don't you care anymore
Why won't you come and disprove
All of these fucking vicious lies
9. Swords
Vengeance is bliss, don’t be naïve
Just like we deformed the Japanese
Those we had trained to have others killed
Have turned against us by our own will
My stare is blank
Yet my thoughts are out of control
It’s all gone wrong, it’s all fucked up
Still one last war just to top it off
Conspiracies surround us
Your gut instinct tells you to run
The curtain’s slowly closing
The final act is almost done
Can anyone keep hope alive
Answer me
Does anyone even give a shit
We live by the sword
We try to swallow it
Can anyone find a reason why
Fucking answer me
Does anyone give a fucking shit
We live by the sword and we shall choke on it
The towers gone, the first of the fall
But here comes the man that claims to save us all
The crowd absorbs his power
Generations pass yet evil never can fall
I have my reasons to believe
Liberty and justice will be deceived
A peaceful change is still just a dream
The new world order brewing behind the scenes
Look into their fucking eyes
Read their fucking lips
If it’s too good to be true then it probably is
Bin Laden’s running free
Saddam Hussein is dead
And the terrorists are praying as their chopping off our heads
Iraq is just a scapegoat
So who is the real enemy
Watch your back
They know when you are sleeping
They know when you’re awake
They know if you’ve been good or bad
So be good cause you’re life’s at stake
We live by the sword and we shall die by it
From New York City
To New Orleans
To California
To all those in between
Don’t look outside your window
Just lock all the doors
The troops are marching in
With our bloodstained swords
10. Cry Little Sister
A last fire will rise behind those eyes
Black house will rock, blind boys don't lie
Immortal fear, that voice so clear
Through broken walls, that scream I hear
Cry, little sister - Thou shall not fall
Come to your brother - Thou shall not die
Unchain me, sister - Thou shall not fear
Love is with your brother - Thou shall not kill
Blue masquerade, strangers look on
When will they learn this loneliness?
Temptation heat beats like a drum
Deep in your veins, I will not lie
Cry Little sister - Thou shall not fall
Come to your brother - Thou shall not die
Unchain me, sister - Thou shall not fear
Love is with your brother - Thou shall not kill
My Shangri-Las
I can't forget
Why you were mine
I need you now
Cry, little sister - Thou shall not fall
Come to your brother - Thou shall not die
Unchain me, sister - Thou shall not fear
Love is with your brother - Thou shall not kill
