Killing myself
Someone said the fix is in Killing myself Once again, once again Over easy Burnt, my mind is overdone Life's a jigsaw Why can't I find the missing one Even though I've felt I've proven What it is I'm worthy of I can't exist inside the boundaries Of the so-called world of love Someone rescue my downward virtue I dropped the ball again Hands that touch me Take 'em all away Patronizing Will you hear what I say F**k your caring No one knows what's in my heart Bring it all down Break it all down to parts Everytime I have considered why it is I'm even here Calm collected copasetic, no good reasons why I fear No one rescue my downward virtue Even though I've felt I've proven What it is I'm worthy of I can't exist inside the boundaries Of the so-called world of love No one rescue, no one rescue I dropped the ball again I never felt for you for anyone I never ate off the same plate Drop the ball I dropped the ball I take from you, I rape from you I kill myself when I think of you Drop the ball I dropped the ball I take from you, I break from you I used to know how to be human Drop the ball I dropped the ball I take from you, I hate from you No one rescue my downward virtue No one rescue, no one rescue |

Paint me into a corner Tearing my niche, 'Cause I'm the opposite of opposite Test your new model and see Test your new model against the original I'm the man you wanna be So test your new model and once again you fail me Planted, I'm staying in touch Driven, by something with substance Plugging, away I'm O.K.

Standing on some dotted line
Reacting to the hands of time A circumstance that I've been fed Leaving questions in my head Find the space that was left bare An empty space I'd gladly share One must live while one must die Combined paired up for so many years Unsure if I really want to shed a tear Signing off is always so clearly done A number 2 is now reduced to one Find the space that was left bare An empty space I'd gladly share When your clock is up And you rest for good I will cut off my armpiece Just like we agreed we would One must live while one must die While the other argues that The world ain't fair But then who ever promised Anybody equal share You might as well forget What you gambled on 'Cause plans never go by the way they're drawn When your clock is up And you rest for good I will cut off my armpiece Just like we agreed we would One must live while one must die I can't say good-bye It's all I can do to get up every morning And when all else fails I try To face myself and everything else But mostly I wonder why |

Killing myself
Someone said the fix is in Killing myself Once again, once again Over easy Burnt, my mind is overdone Life's a jigsaw Why can't I find the missing one Even though I've felt I've proven What it is I'm worthy of I can't exist inside the boundaries Of the so-called world of love Someone rescue my downward virtue I dropped the ball again Hands that touch me Take 'em all away Patronizing Will you hear what I say F**k your caring No one knows what's in my heart Bring it all down Break it all down to parts Everytime I have considered why it is I'm even here Calm collected copasetic, no good reasons why I fear No one rescue my downward virtue Even though I've felt I've proven What it is I'm worthy of I can't exist inside the boundaries Of the so-called world of love No one rescue, no one rescue I dropped the ball again I never felt for you for anyone I never ate off the same plate Drop the ball I dropped the ball I take from you, I rape from you I kill myself when I think of you Drop the ball I dropped the ball I take from you, I break from you I used to know how to be human Drop the ball I dropped the ball I take from you, I hate from you No one rescue my downward virtue No one rescue, no one rescue |

I've changed, by staying the same
What does it mean to be different ? You've changed, faced from the start Tell me, an alternative to what ? How does it feel ? How does it feel to be part of the picture you... Paint me into a corner Tearing my niche, 'Cause I'm the opposite of opposite Test your new model and see Test your new model against the original I'm the man you wanna be So test your new model and once again you fail me Planted, I'm staying in touch Driven, by something with substance Plugging, away I'm O.K. You'll be, here today, gone today How does it feel? How does it feel to be part of the picture you... Paint me into a corner Tearing my niche 'Cause I'm the opposite of opposite Test your new model and see Test your new model against the original I'm the man you wanna be So test your new model and once again you fail me For me, things are the same I have no problem with fame I can be every man 'Cause my friends never shout my name Test your new model and see Test your new model against the original I'm the man you wanna be So test your new model and once again you fail me |

Standing on some dotted line
Reacting to the hands of time A circumstance that I've been fed Leaving questions in my head Find the space that was left bare An empty space I'd gladly share One must live while one must die Combined paired up for so many years Unsure if I really want to shed a tear Signing off is always so clearly done A number 2 is now reduced to one Find the space that was left bare An empty space I'd gladly share When your clock is up And you rest for good I will cut off my armpiece Just like we agreed we would One must live while one must die While the other argues that The world ain't fair But then who ever promised Anybody equal share You might as well forget What you gambled on 'Cause plans never go by the way they're drawn When your clock is up And you rest for good I will cut off my armpiece Just like we agreed we would One must live while one must die I can't say good-bye It's all I can do to get up every morning And when all else fails I try To face myself and everything else But mostly I wonder why |

Yeah, yeah, yeah
It's difficult for me to get a grip of what you mean When you stick your fingers in your ear and create another scene You always step into the trap set perfect in your path Busy going crazy over whose knife's in your back Dive inside your blackest stare The one that's saying, "Do you dare?" Huh, screaming that you're scared You the tallest soul With the shortest self-esteem Painted as a victim (victim) Who's split between the beams It doesn't seem to matter There's nothing, no Dead a dream is dying There's nothing Best friend I never had Playin' me to the point of pushing me too far away I can only say, "Whatever," ambivalent to your game You can pretend to the mirror, it's the lie you tell yourself And I won't walk on eggshells that's a dance for someone else Dive inside your blackest stare The one that's saying, "Do you dare?" Ha, screaming that you're scared You the tallest soul With the shortest self-esteem Painted as a victim (victim) Who's split between the beams It doesn't seem to matter There's nothing, no Dead a dream is dying There's nothing Best friend I never had, go It doesn't seem to matter There's nothing, no Dead a dream is dying There's nothing It doesn't seem to matter There's nothing, no Dead a dream is dying There's nothing Best friend I never had Best friend I never had |
