She was confused and abused in this life
Emotional and violent moments Seemed to take the longest time Every single knockout, dragout Firght they ever had Apologies and dignity denied to lie with SUddenly psychotic eyes Every night she cried herself to sleep She didn't recognize Her own face in the mirror Black and blue, so afraid Intimidation Like a child she hides away He would always try to justify what wasn't true Justified black eye Taken for granted, she sleeps by The phone waiting for a call >From him, but it seems he's never coming home 14 beers later he is there without an answer Once again she questions his Lies, he goes to bed with No reply Tomorrow morning, different story And he'll be a differenty guy He'll justify her black eye With another lie She packs her bags in great temptation He's on his knees, again he cries A hug and a kiss and a don't know why As a tear drops from her swollen eye Apologies until tonight and another Justified black eye ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |

Sometimes the news bums me out
It doesn't get me off the couch where I belong I guess as world problems never seem to rest Am I afraid, God, yes I am Won't somebody tell me why my TV Claims we're born to die like this Communicate, don't seperate Don't instigate a world of hate Comtemplate the situation Negotiate those lazy ways We've gone to far to slip away Situation is an open invitation And all this time we've had to change it Now it's time to face it Lazy, I am Realistically, what can I do I'll leave it up to the rest of you Yo uwouldn't like my point of view anyway How can I stand aside and watch the wear world go by? It's easy, you see, when you haven't got a window Just a screen ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |

Monday morning you woke up crying The outcome of a stupid line oh-oh Said by some punk-ass on the street It wasn't me, it wasn't you It wasn't anybody you knew is it Your old friend insecurity? The one companion that stuck by your side since you were born Tuesday night you were in a fight The same old argument black and white It's something that's eating your inside It's not the food, it's not the booze It isn't anything consumed so is it becoming a problem you can't hide? So every time you thought that you were wrong you were right The devil on your shoulder gives you strenght in paranoia The countless times you called a few Your best friend till the end of time They'll always be there by your side Solidify conditions you've abused What that means you'll never have a clue More than just a life long friend No social life I guess we can pretend It's not like I care but anyway You always wanna leave, you never wanna stay Cause you think if you drink too much then you will lose it You'll drink your security away The one companion that stuck by your side since you were born The little voice inside your head, annoying and confusing That somehow tells you what to do Socially you've lost your mind and basically you're out of time You try to build so much it breaks on you What that means you'll never have a clue |

51 days without a trace or an indication
That his God would soon be here To take them all away Waiting for the final day and for the God Who never came They all ended up in flames CHORUS Moved by the power of a charming leader With the love of God and the hatred of humanity Led to a place where he could hide and lead The blind, only to find tragedy Having his way with all the women 'Cause his death would soon be here Living his life in a dream 85 people, 23 children, and a lot of them were his His to the end, never be free CHORUS He promised them eternal life If they'd walk into a fire Now we see the charged remains Apocalyptic funeral pyre I guess he got what he desired All in 51 days ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |

When we came here it was done, I felt completely useless
Never learned to quite adjust, and all along they knew this Carousel would someday stop and throw us off in anger I guess I didn't think I'd ever see this sitcom dramedy They wrote the script for us already It's not the time that makes us guilty It's all done, the hatreds built, the walls divide And when I die I'll leave you with these Animals that think the future's in their minds IT's in their minds, but they're so blind And so I leave it behind, ecological man-made crime And so I leave you behind to these miraculous, intelligent Incredible, extraordinary minds Junk mail stacked into the sky, recylced paper and plastic Then we said that we would try, decreasing figures were drastic But it didn't do much good, nobody cares about it Not much emotion in my neighborhood, my apartments made of wood I haven't given more than I could It's not the time that makes us guilty It's the ones before the ones that lit the fuse Cancer-causing smog injecting in the vein That makes the world go round so fast And you won't last, it's in the past ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |

Old pirates yes they rob I
Sold I to the merchant ships Minutes after they took I From the bottomless pit But my hand was made strong By the hand of the almighty We forward in this generation Triumphantly Won't you help to sing, these songs of freedom All I ever had, is songs of freedom 'Cause all I ever had, redemption songs Redemption songs Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery None but ourselves can free our minds Have no fear for atomic energy 'Cause none of them can stop the time How long shall they kill our prophets While we stand aside and look Some say it's just a part of it We've got to fulfill the book Won't you help to sing, these songs of freedom 'Cause all I ever had, redemption songs Redemption songs, redemption songs Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery None but ourselves can free our minds Have no fear for atomic energy 'Cause none of them can stop the time How long shall they kill our prophets While we stand aside and look Yes some say it's just a part of it We've got to fulfill the book Won't you help to sing, these songs of freedom 'Cause all I ever had, redemption songs All I ever had, redemption songs These songs of freedom, songs of freedom |

So sorry son, you're worrying your mother
No explanation's gonna make it seem all right Young boy, listen to your father It's more than just your life, it's more than suicide How does it feel? When you're looking down the barrel of a loaded gun Tell me how it feels Did you see your life flash right before your eyes? Stop playing games and get yourself up off the floor Young boy, we're gonna send you to the lions THe men all dressed in white, when you became undone How does it feel when I might have brought you up But you are not my son So many times I tried to bring you up, you brought me down I won't consider you again, stop looking at me like you care I worked my fingers to the bone I'm not your father or a friend You might have lived here once, but this is not your home Tell me how it fees You don't mean much to me, I didn't plant the seed I'm not your father 'cause you didn't turn out right Young boy, we're gonna feed you to the fire It's more than just your life, it's more than suicide How does it feel? How does it feel? How does it feel? When you're looking down a barrel of a loaded gun... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |

How many people, how many have died?
I'm feeling lucky and afraid at the same time How many times have you sat home and wondered why? We always hear about the U.S.A., but not the other side In fileds of agony everybody dies How many humans, how many does it take? We get a cedar box, they get a body rake How many lives does it take before we can end this war? Bring Johnny home soon, he forgot what the fuck that they were fighting for In fields of agony I don't wanna die or be sent home on a cargo plane A tag on my toe without my name because I'm one of a million A million... How many weapons, how many do we need? What about the economy, what about the economy? You'll be the hero at the end of your catastrophe It can't be stopped with unity, with collaboration of you and me And human dignity In fields of agony ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |

It taught you a lesson, how to be afraid
And how to understand your life is not a game It's more than a lesson, now you can learn no more from love Even with that wisdom in your mind, there's still that Poison in your blood You wouldn't touch the breakfast that I made for you How could you lie? Losing weight, you look afraid, you're scaring me I wonder why? Victim of envionment, I cannot stand aside and watch you die Everyday you went to school trying to maintain your cool With people sitting far away from you No lesson learned here, prejudice prevails You're an outcast to the ignorance of other people's metal jails Soon you'll be free, yo ucan live again, my friend Darkness is better than this life you live Sympathy I give to you, that is all I can do I'm sorry that you're stuck here with this fatal flu There's not much I can do They taught you a lesson, how to stay away Victim of your solitude, one out of ten And one was you, victim of society's Incurable disease, the fatal flu ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |

Life must be empty when living a lie
With something to hide and nothing to show You have learned nothing but how to destroy Things that friends who love you couldn't leave alone Someday it's gonna hit you between the eyes That we're not sixteen years old anymore One day those people that used to welcome you with open arms Will see you coming and hide, then lock the door People that listend to you were afraid Even friends that knew you as a kid Now you are sorry, but you'll never change Change the things that you already did Someday it's gonna hit you between the eyes That the seeds have already been sown Find your own garden, because you still need space to grow Until that time, you will remain alone Don't try to come around with your pathetic lies, 'cause I can see it in your Eyes that you will always be the same and you will never change the past That you have brought among yourself, and this is why we have to say Goodbye, it's time for truth and not for lies...that you have always told Your trust was bought and sold, you're all alone ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |

Yesterday becomes tomorrow leaves you wanting more
So intricate becomes the bathroom floor And even though you're in a ditch you dig a deeper hole And I feel like I'm a shovel cause it's out of my control Promised a change, didn't hear a word from you Don't hold me back The exit isn't somewhere in my heart A promise of pain, we're back to the start The reason that I still persist it's obvious I care Been waiting by a door with no one there It seems like you are locked inside my key don't fit no more And you're walking on the land mines you laid down before Promised a change I didn't hear a word from you Don't hold me back The exit isn't somewhere in my heart A promise of pain, we're back to the start |
