You don't know a thing about me
Is there something that you should know? I can tell you what you want to hear Let you inhibitions just go No you don't know what you will give up You don't know what you want It may take you years to find out You don't know what you need It's something that may never come to you Trust is something that comes easy When you've never been a victim Lies and promises and words are said It's your decision to accept them |

Do you want to make a difference?
Do you wonder what would happen if you don't? Do you need just a little push? Do you try to change? Do you about the other guy? Do you want just one good reason why you should? Do you only think about yourself? Do you want to be left alone? You're running out of time And I don't see a change in you And I don't think you're gonna make it Do you understand the way it works? Do you want to take as much as you can get? Do you need a little push? Do you try to change? You're running out of time And I don't see a change in you And I don't think you're gonna make it We're running out of time and there aren't many changes made And I don't think were going to make it We're running out of time and there aren't many changes made And I don't think were going to make it Well, what do you think? Yeah, that's what I thought ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By KEITH, TREVER M/RIDDLE, MATT <i>Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing</i> |

we've got a lot of questions
we've got a lot to learn so tired of solving problems too many bridges burned we see it all so clearly and still we close our eyes why should we understand it? what good is knowing why? I know that life can be filled with these changes I know there's times when it feels like I'm falling I know something in my life will change again now I've got a lot of questions I've got a lot to learn I'm tired of solving problems too many bridges burned I can't change what's in the past I want to move ahead I want to understand it give me the reason why I'm tired of running these circles in my life I've seen the future it changes before my eyes and I know that there is something that's going to change in my life I know my life will change again |

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 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |

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 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |

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 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |

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 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |

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 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |

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 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |

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 |

She was corruption when I was destruction
I'm seein' through her eyes like cellophane It used to be I'd see her face and feel so small Now the only face I see is the picture I'm throwing darts at on the wall Where did she go? When loneliness is all I had to show If I couldn't trust her then, who could I trust? The pillow is wet with tears and permanent rust Just when I thought I was out of the dark I'm holding her tight and she breaks the light She was dead in my mind, but her ghost is still around It comes back to haunt me, it doesn't want me It just happened to be passing through my town It took so long to realize the truth I resent every word I said... That's when I knew, one and one don't make two! I knew that sleepless night when she never came home She's probably drinking somewhere knowing I'm alone The road to nowhere is a long winding street Maybe someone will be there at the end, But it won't be me! |

Pollution will replace the air we breathe I'm close to the mountain, just miles away But I can't see the hills from here today We can't just let it pass us by And as I look into the sky Something in the atmosphere is telling me it won't be here for long Take a picture of this place cos extinction is not so far away Our skin will fry like a steak well done When there's nothing between us and the sun We can't just let it pass us by And as I look into the sky Something in the atmosphere is telling me it won't be here for long Until it's gone - Until it's gone Until it's gone - We'll never miss it until it's gone, gone, gone All the efforts seem to fall With cars and cans of aerosol I feel so guilty, then my pride will die When I see the grey, self-created sky Until we find a better way We'll have to learn from all our big mistakes Something in the atmosphere is telling me it won't be here for long Until it's gone - Until it's gone Until it's gone - Until it's gone You'll never miss it until it's gone, gone, gone Seems like a letter that we cannot send Fells like aluminum we cannot bend Tastes like a mixture that we cannot blend But we must change the course of the recipe to the end, to the end |

Lost yourself it didn't take much time, it wasn't hard to find now that you've been to the edge, stood and looked down from the top and found it wasn't worth the pain, a selfish way to say I'm the only one that counts and happiness is out Really insecure, disguising what's inside you're not cool to me I wont wait in the back of the line No one knows exactly where you went, the maoney has been spent sent the search team, I'm about to call it off feel you close when you're so far away a straw inside your vein as it sucks the life from you I watch it all come true When it happens like a million times before I wont close my mind but I refuse to open the door Feel the world ALL caving in, you had so much left to give is it worth the tide you turned, all the people YOU HAVE burned? So long to your little friend this is how the story ends I'm the only one 'cause nobody cared anyway Hate yourself just like I thought you would, it didn't do us good I'm afraid of being right so before we say good-bye to you come down from off your throne and let the truth be known we all know you're not insane, it's how you play this game Really insecure, disguising what's inside it's not cool to me when the game is a fake suicide |

Don't take it so hard, we're not against you it's really not that bad, it's just that they want you to think that it is I'm over the past but I can't defend you so I'll say it one last time before I leave that life behind It's easy to abuse the friends that end up screwed just take one for the team, I hope you're happy It's hard to believe that once there was something there's something to be said for sinking the ship that I wanted to sail you don't have a clue, you never can and never will but I'll suck it up and lie, with all my dignity and pride These words can't say it all, you're feeling ten feet tall and stronger everyday, I've learned to walk away So easy to confuse another lie that's true you'll find out for yourself, I hope you're happy |

He doesn't know what's wrong it's been this way for much too long and nothing could be easier than blaming this on her kicking in the womb she brings in up he leaves the room walk away all he has to say you got what you deserve It's your fault I don't think that it's even mine and I guess there's not much in his little mind it's a shame when it happens everyday He doesn't stop to think that every bottle that he drinks is just an additive to ignorance hence problems that exist lay down on the bed and dream of glory days instead not egocentric attitudes solved problems with a fist I don't understand why he can get so mad she don't want it either but it's too late dad it's not right and I doubt next time I'll think twice Pretend that they're lovers but she feels like slave how could I even know?

Covered up your insecurities with everything showing everyone exactly how you think mad no difference, I can see right through your best disguise you look like someone else, it doesn't matter where you hide You wanna empty clips on everyone around and burn their fortress to the ground Socializing makes you sick from drinking everything and if looks could kill we'd surely all be dead maybe sticks of dynamite would solve your problems now underneath my feet, was it something that I said? You wanna empty clips on everyone around and burn their fortress to the ground Someday soon you'll have your way and everyone will leave you all alone you laugh at everyone's mistakes, trapped inside a mind you call home You wanna empty clips on everyone around and burn their fortress to the ground |

Sitting in the lazy chair, the channels look the same I realize that the roof is stable and start to feel ashamed it's cold outside but don't ask me the weather's fine in here ask the man around the corner who lives his life in fear Two hundred pennies, forty ounces later he's okay he doesn't have the pressure to think about the next day but I bet it's something cold and hard and grey Complaining and whining all the time, I never seem to quit always lying to myself, a shoe that seems to fit never is a long time and it feels like I'm a clock ticking like a time bomb, someday soon his life will stop I listen to the radio but nothing good is on my friends are calling up but I'm pretending that I'm gone we're all pieces in a chess game, he's a pawn I wonder how it turned out like this, no one seems to care the scale has tipped me fortunate is this what we call fair? but I've never had the mind to no it, never had the guts to show it I know one thing, his dream is my nightmare |

I couldn't understand why you left me standing here flickering out like a candle in the wind memories are laced with shame there's no intention of working out the problem that remains the same Little children standing in the hall never taught them anything at all if you were young again, would you do it different? or keep on making your way trying to find the fiction in the fact of life? Try to believe the words that you said to me are true but something else assures me I'm not through been denied so many times and so I'm told to sit back and ignore the truth, enjoy the ride Never took a hand with her to school take a guess then tell us who's the fool and you're not supposed to be my responsibility maybe someday you'll regain your pride and realize life is too short not to try...

When I'm awake at night, sometimes I picture you
And hear those words again you said, "I'm leaving" I couldn't hold you down and not expect that you would drown I'm a clown, but no one's laughing Maybe you're from another planet, one I want to invade It's all been said (it's all been said) To me you're dead (to me you're dead) And it's time you turn your page I'm not sure what it was that led us down a dead-end road Some of those signs can be quite deceiving I knew your favorite things, didn't know that one of them was someone else I'm done believing Someday there will be understanding Everyday is a tragedy It's me you blame (it's me you blame) But it's the shame (but it's the shame) That you will always carrie, that wou will always carrie That you will always carrie |

Trusted your feelings in a place that no one goes Will you do anything, to satisfy your so-called friend? There's something you ought to know, before you explode All I want to do is make sure you stop chasing rainbows Trusting those around you is an easy thing to do I'm not saying don't believe in someone that you don't know Just don't go on thinking that the whole world tells the truth It's all fucked up, being reserved and quiet She doesn't understand the message that you send Don't give it all away somewhere, sometimes there's someone Who can replace that state of mind, you never give it time (never) All I want to do is make sure you stop chasing rainbows Letting everybody crawl inside your heart and mine Kicking you is easy when you're down that's where the weak go To release their anger on someone who will not try To stand up, and give them a fight |

It was Christmas Eve babe
In the drunk tank An old man said to me, won't see another one And then he sang a song The Rare Old Mountain Dew I turned my face away And dreamed about you Got on a lucky one Came in eighteen to one I've got a feeling This year's for me and you So happy Christmas I love you baby I can see a better time When all our dreams come true They've got cars big as bars They've got rivers of gold But the wind goes right through you It's no place for the old When you first took my hand On a cold Christmas Eve You promised me Broadway was waiting for me You were handsome You were pretty Queen of New York City When the band finished playing They howled out for more Sinatra was swinging, All the drunks they were singing We kissed on a corner Then danced through the night The boys of the NYPD choir Were singing "Galway Bay" And the bells were ringing out For Christmas day You're a bum You're a punk You're an old slut on junk Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed You scumbag, you maggot You cheap lousy faggot Happy Christmas your arse I pray God it's our last I could have been someone Well so could anyone You took my dreams from me When I first found you I kept them with me babe I put them with my own Can't make it all alone I've built my dreams around you |

Sounds like times are hard for you again You said that you'd be nineteen in September of this year And you're breaking up with your first girlfriend "My dad and I got in a fight, he told me to leave" When everything was fine There isn't much that I can do to help you tes it's true But I promise that the hurt will heal in time... And you don't deserve this Lies can't pretend, just another way of thinking People can change when it seems they're not there for you Truth cannot lie, never heard a better word that trust Yes it's in you, know that it's true and right Let me count the ways that I feel so sorry When it rains it drains the spirit dry We all have our mishaps, misfortunes, misopportunities And the strength to carry on consider yourself free...

She was done before the start, always mending broken hearts Making others miserable not knowing who she's hurting Father said, "This day will be, one for everyone to see" Is it true you'll follow suit and have you learned a thing? It's just a selfish way to go, it's safe to say she'll never know For every person there's a whole life story waiting to be told When she is happy it's OK, but then these people start to fade Then we'll just watch her self-destruct as she gets old She put up defensive shields, to walk through all of life's minefields All defined by make-up and a car behind she's hiding "Father do you have to go, left me questions I dont know" Any answers or even close the life time lie was true She's gonna move on with her life, and take it one heart at a time And watch the little girl inside her wait behind as she goes on But with this black heart she decides, who she'll take in and shove aside Until the day she sees that everyone is gone Getting used to people leaving, thinking true love is deceiving Soon she'll know how lonely it can be Now was it really worth the pain? A couple pills make her feel sane While she lives out the story written for the part she is to play With so much shame for her to hide, there's no more dignity, no pride Then there will only be dark in her light of day And she will only see a reflection, of her father's rejection Nothing will change until she breaks this life, this life-size mirror |

Unlucky seventeen, already handed plans for the future
Glamour obsessed, told how to dress, and shown how to think And I don't have a job, but I can show you how to be a slob So many days, wasted and glazed Sometimes I laugh aloud as I think about, You asking me "Please can you help?" Can't help my self I'm not your savior, I'm not who you want me to be A cowardly mistake I've made so many times before, refusing to break Cut my losses ties them with you, like a good boy I'll pretend And promise not to do it again Do you remember when, life was so simple and permanent? Everyone's changed, "Everyone's cool", Everyone sucks But I can't seem to complain, Exciting and new is just not there You're getting scared I'm not your savior, never thought I was anyway I'm a void with empty promises that backs out late Never said I'd change, taking back the words that we spoke Like a fuel tank running dry, you'll believe it when I choke |

Just drop the present on the shelf, by the flowers And make the feeling go away Looking back I can't recall, who was listening When I used to walk the streets at night Like a bird that used to sing, I was flying I was happy all the time, and it's hard to look back Better days and different ways I can't explain Another song to sing it all was simplified Don't know what it's about, what have I learned to live without? It takes a day to live a life I can't believe the way the world is so different Look what the lines in my face have made Living in my bed I'm right next to the road The one that goes the other way, takes me to a different place Did you know, that I was just as young as you I had a job, a home, a family, and a car Did you say that yesterday or just right now?

Like others getting close are aliens, in disguise They smell conspiracy on the lips of dearest friends Reminds me of a time long ago, They think it's the end Of what we all created, used to love but now we hate it Life is as simple as the mind it lives in The truth is a waste of time, when we're conditioned to understand Lies are the right was as we watch the blind leading the blind Everything that we see is another's suffering Learn to enjoy the message the TV is delivering You're safe being the glass like being at the zoo The face of guilty thoughts turns around and looks just like you Don't want be another, victim but you watch them suffer Organized, de-sensitized and trained To wake up at 6 AM, go to work come home and in bed by ten When the feeling is safe and warm Horrified by any change, living by consensus destroys us Paints pretty pictures at the same time will do us more harm |

Does it feel, that you're taking back the love that made him real In the darkness you will always see his face And I could never take the place of him Today I'm sleeping in Woke up it's too late and I should be in school There's always something wrong when you ignore the rules Never want to see myself in front of that window Sucking up your tears, didn't want to let me know too much Reaching out your hand for one last touch Take me with you, everybody here is fake And I don't wanna feel the same when you give in In a lifetime, time will always take our place But I will lay here shielded from the pain This is a long time from today You gave me all that I could take And gave me strength to carry on In the darkness, you will always see his face And I don't wanna be there when you do, give in In a lifetime, time will always take our place And I will lay here shielded from the pain I do whatever I want, you never let me down I always know when lost somehow you're found Although life has all thse consequences now And that's OK, and that's OK |

What goes through their little minds when you turn off the light? Always having to say sorry tears are stained on the pillow Like the light of the moon they can't be one Can't exist without the son Let's think clearly for a while Can he shine without a smile? Why am I alone with no one to be found? Looks like they know what's best for me Why doesn't anybody like me, I don't understand? Guess I'll have to crawl inside and I don't know why I'm sitting by myself, when the problem isn't mine Been around the block a few times, been beat up by all his friends Learing life is like a maze that never seems to end Like an open book, blank pages left for only him to write Life is short this chapter takes so long Can't tell the right from the wrong It's so hard for you to place An expression on his face Why am I alone with no one to be found? Looks like they know what's best for me Why doesn't anybody like me, I don't understand? Guess I'll have to crawl inside and I don't know why I'm sitting by myself, when the problem isn't mine Why doesn't anybody like me, I don't understand Why my friends and family left me At six years old he won't be taught a meaning to this mess He'll just have to take a guess, and make his own plan And we'll never see the child that was forced to be a man |

We stood in your room and laughed out loud.
Suddenly the laughter died and we were caught in an eye to eye. We sat on the floor and did we sit close. I could smell your thoughts and thought. Do you want to touch a lot like me? Too scared to say a thing. I left your house and kicked myself. I put those feelings on a shelf to die. I guess I'm not a gambling type but think of what the two of us had lost. Had lost. I needed some time to think it out. 7-Eleven parking lot. A toothless woman turned and stopped. I gave her a dime and a Chesterfield. She leaned down and kissed my cheek. I was scared but it felt sweet. Felt so sweet. She asked me if I had a name. I told her I was glued up on some chick. We sat and smoked against the wall. Drank a beer, felt the chill of fall. Of Fall. I took my car and drove it down the hill by your house. I drove so fast. The wind it couldn't cool me down, so I turned it around and came back up. You were waiting on your step, steam showing off your breath and water in your eyes. We pulled each other into one, parkas clinging on the lawn and kissed right there. Said all my chicks they smoke these things and handed you a Chesterfield King. Held your hand and watched tv and traced the little lines along your palm. Your palm. I took my car and drove it down the hill by your house. I drove so fast. The wind it couldn't cool me down, so I turned it around and came back up. You were waiting on your step, steam showing off your breath and water in your eyes. We pulled each other into one, parkas clinging on the lawn and kissed right there. Right there. |

Time after time You make me feel so helpless I I never tried to change your mind I keep it to myself It's sometimes I've got to tell you Is it this time I'll tell you We've got to go to places Somewhere I don't mind it's special And now you find as time goes by You're left with nothing Meaning much The meaning I will have to try To take your mind to places I wish that I could help you But you seem less than helpless I always tried to tell you Someday that it'd seem so special Time after time What's on your mind You make me feel so helpless I You never tried what's on your mind You make me feel so helpless I I feel so helpless I You're left alone with something And I hope for you it's one thing That something you and yours can hold And hold as something special And now you find as time goes by You're left with nothing meaning much The meaning I will have to try What's on your mind so helpless I I feel so helpless I |

I've never seen you look like this without a reason
Another promise fallen through Another season passes by you I never took the smile away from anybody's face And that's a desperate way to look For someone who is still a child In a big country dreams stay with you Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside Stay alive I thought that pain and truth were things that really mattered But you can't stay here with every single hope you had shattered I'm not expecting to grow flowers in a desert But I can live and breathe And see the sun in wintertime In a big country dreams stay with you Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside Stay alive Stay alive So take that look out of here it doesn't fit you Because it's happened doesn't mean you've been discarded Pull up your head off the floor—come up screaming Cry out for everything you ever might have wanted I thought that pain and truth were things that really mattered But you can't stay here with every single hope you had shattered I'm not expecting to grow flowers in a desert But I can live and breathe And see the sun in wintertime In a big country dreams stay with you Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside Stay alive In a big country dreams stay with you Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside Stay alive In a big country dreams stay with you Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside Stay alive |

When we have nothing left to give
There will be no reason for us to live But when we have nothing left to lose You will have nothing left to use We owe you nothing You have no control Merchandise keeps us in line Common sense says it's by design What could a businessman ever want more Than to have us sucking in his store We owe you nothing You have no control You are not what you own |

My eyes are so cloudy I can't see you Look now, look all around, there's no sign of Life voices, another sound Can you hear me now?

One fine day in my odd past
I picked me up a transmission I turned the fission ignition Went looking for the broadcaster And when i first touched some ground They simply told me leave Was kind of hard to believe 'Cause there was not one around This ain't the planet of sound This ain't the planet of sound This ain't the planet of sound This ain't the planet of sound I had a talented wine That land o' classical gas And on the planet of glass They sent me skipping through time I got to somewhere renowned For its canals and color of red And lots of guys who shook their heads Rhythmically to resound This ain't the planet of sound This ain't the planet of sound This ain't the planet of sound This ain't the planet of sound This ain't no rock and roll town This ain't no fuckin' around This ain't no planet of sound I met a guy in a rover He said it's one more over It's just there where you're bound This ain't the planet of sound This ain't the planet of sound This ain't the planet of sound This ain't the planet of sound |

Seen the carnival at Rome
Had the women I had the booze All I can remember now Is little kids without no shoes So I saw that train And I got on it With a heartful of hate And a lust for vomit Now I'm walking on the sunnyside of the street Stepped over bodies in Bombay Tried to make it to the U.S.A. Ended up in Nepal Up on the roof with nothing at all And I knew that day I was going to stay Right where I am, on the sunnyside of the street Been in a palace, been in a jail I just don't want to be reborn a snail Just want to spend eternity Right where I am, on the sunnyside of the street As my mother wept it was then I swore To take my life as I would a whore I know I'm better than before I will not be reconstructed Just wanna stay right here, on the sunnyside of the street On the sunnyside of the street |

A police car and a screaming siren
A pnuematic drill and ripped up concrete A baby waiting and stray dog howling The screech of brakes and lamplights blinking That's entertainment A smash of glass and the rumble of boots An electric train and a ripped up 'phone booth Paint splattered walls and the cry of a tomcat Lights going out and a kick in the balls That's entertainment Days of speed and slow time Mondays Pissing down with rain on a boring Wednesday Watching the news and not eating your tea A freezing cold flat and damp on the walls That's entertainment Waking up at 6 a.m. on a cool warm morning Opening the windows and breathing in petrol An amateur band rehearsing in a nearby yard Watching the tele and thinking about your holidays That's entertainment Waking up from bad dreams and smoking cigarettes Cuddling a warm girl and smelling stale perfume A hot summers' day and sticky black tarmac Feeding ducks in the park and wishing you were faraway That's entertainment Two lovers kissing amongst the scream of midnight Two lovers missing the tranquility of solitude Getting a cab and travelling on buses Reading the grafitti about slashed seat affairs That's entertainment |

All men have secrets and here is mine
So let it be known We have been through hell and high tide, I can surely rely on you? And yet you start to recoil, heavy words are so lightly thrown But still I'd leap in front of a flying bullet for you So, what difference does it make? So, what difference does it make? It makes none but you have gone and you must be looking very old tonight The devil will find work for idle hands to do I stole and I lied, and why? because you asked me to! But now you make feel so ashamed because I've only got two hands well, I'm still fond of you So, what difference does it make? It makes none but you have gone and your prejudice won't keep you warm tonight The devil will find work for idle hands to do I stole and I lied, and why? Just because you asked me to! But you know the truth about me you won't see me anymore, I'm still fond of you So, no more apologies no more apologies I'm too tired I'm too sick and tired and I'm feeling very sick and ill today But I'm still fond of you |

So many different things you can do with your life
So many different things if you have the time Give a little more, give it your best shot On the right track you can't be stopped All the things I said that I would do All the brilliant ideas that slipped right through Sometimes we got to get on and climb aboard But I was one day late and a dollar short Don't miss the train, don't miss the train Don't miss the train, don't miss the train Don't miss the train, don't miss the train Don't miss the train, don't miss the train It could be the only chance we have Have you ever sat and thought about other things? Living on the street, hanging by a string Letting people take away your name Letting people push you into your grave What you gotta do is stand up for what is yours Breaking all the barricades, smash the doors If the chance comes around to save your life Remember, opportunity doesn't always knock twice The decision is ntirely up to you So don't watch the train just pass right through There is another time that you will meet in life But the second visit won't be nice So now you're walking in your sorrow on lonely tracks Hoping for the day the train will come back Light on in the tunnel just up ahead The train is back but now you're dead...TOO LATE |

Picked up a flyer just the other day
My favorite band was coming here to play Last time they were here no one broke the silence I hope this time it doesn't turn into a soundtrack for violence Hanging out in the parking lot and everybody's here There's the straight edge guys and they're pounding beer Skaters poppin' ollies and skinheads talkin' shop But here come the nazis at the end of the block GET OUT OF THIS TOWN!!! It's packed in this sweatbox as the band begins to blare A swarming mass of tattoos, muscles, baldness, and hair But now there's a target it's a fascist attack Twenty on one, they know he won't fight back GET OUT OF THIS TOWN!!! Got to get out, gotta get out gotta get out of this town There's more of us than them but we still don't intervene The hatred of only a few wrecks everybody's scene We can overcome their racist shit if everyone's involved The power of many can crush their few and the problem will be solved GET OUT OF THIS TOWN!!! |

everybody's buying those C.F.C's as the story unwinds it just gets sadder cause every store is selling that extraneous matter we have no tools to fix the hole in the sky told by the fools that you're the reason why paper or plastic, diesel or unleaded It doesn't stop humanity from where it is headed THEY ALWAYS LIE ABOUT IT, BUT WE ALWAYS SEEM TO FIND IT IN THE AIR (just tell me why) WE ALWAYS TRY TO FIGHT IT, WHEN MENDACIOUSLY THEY HIDE IT EVERYWHERE (hole in the sky) THEY ALWAYS LIE ABOUT IT, BUT WE ALWAYS SEEM TO FIND IT IN THE AIR(just tell me why) AND WHEN YOU TRY TO FIGHT IT, JUST REMEMBER WHO DECIDES IT IF YOU CARE (hole in the sky) |

You were living your life like an angel
Did everything that your life said Now you changed your life intentions Ran away from home and shaved your head You were tired of living your life Restricted under your parents wings The weight of the world is on your shoulders You're not running from anything... NOW YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN FAR AWAY FROM HOME You go out at night and thrash To make points on the punk point graph Trying to prove a point to your family Living in a car with a gold spoon in your mouth You get sick, the dirt is thick You return to home where the showers are always free...

Remember these words
'I'll never let you down' 'You are my friend and you can talk to me' so why am I? (so why am I?) still standing all alone that's not the way that it's supposed to be Chorus: Thorn in my side talk about me, kiss my ass thorn in my side I felt it jabbing the first time that you lied deep inside You gave me silence, I tried to talk to you I got denied and tried to think it through you had no reason, I saw no warning sign you think I'll stick around, you must be on glue Chorus So now I'm thinking, you'll turn your back on me the second you find a better place to be it's in our nature to hurt each other I'll never find my place in this world of greed |

There is a man I know
Who lives across the street Every time I sit down at the table He surveys what I eat He's watching out for crime To happen any time He's always minding someone's business And the business is usually mine He's making sure that I don't have fun Because he lives alone He's watching in the darkness of his home... WATCHING YOU, WATCHING ME Six remote controls So he can sit back on his ass and watch the world from his perch by the window, on the other side of the glass He says he's looking out for me but why can't he just see? Just because he has nobody He has to bother me...Watching me!!! |

You're feeling really good and smart
You passed your test with a high score of 93 But it doesn't really matter cause you smashed your car Time to return to the DMV. Parking tickets, too much money, fifty dollar fines Sweaty people, last one in a fifty mile line Make an appointment now if you can't drive it's time you learn Just get in the back of the line What do you get, what do I get, what do we get? Nothing in return We make better drivers and make sure the roads are safe Then how come kids are dying in car accidents everyday? We have the best facilities for learning satisfaction First they took my license and then my registration Can't stop getting tickets don't have the time or money man Now they're gonna impound my car!

He had a little magic sack He used it in his time of need, to run from pain But Felix was a little cat And we are people, that's a fact We can't bail out like a toon Let's face the world It's our mistake We should try and relate and know that what is done is done by hand of fate Searching for a reason to live But we're too tired to give About the state of mind that drives us all to hate |

She loves him just enough, to be lad there
Spread eagle exposing her love Her sighs and moans meant nothing to him But a girl must do what she must do. Hail To The King And his court of love Was it love? Or self-imposed lust. Hey, it's not your duty to me I'm just a boy, not a king It never felt right from the start Speak to me, I'll understand Now it's over and in the past About the future, should we laugh?

It's been a long time since I've dealt with you The complaining and moaning and bitching and groaning Laughing and hating and silence and frustration It's been a long time and I'm not about to let it happen again Why is that you persist My only reaction can be to resist, You enter my life and only cause strife It's been one time to many I've had it! What can I do with you These times are too hard for me to see through Why is it always the same Your existence alone drives me insane When I look around you're always there hounding me No matter what I do, it seems that I can't break free Won't let it happen again That's right, I need some room to breathe So I act mean to make you leave, but you don't understand! |

A knock at the door I open it up in comes the queen
All dressed to perfection awaiting reception but in my mind one thought to flee The look in her eye has crossed paths with mine and stills the last time we met Suppression has started like last when we parted I wish she would just stay away. She's just a power bitch That I already know She's just a power bitch Straight from the depths below She's just a power bitch Domination her game She's just a power bitch I think I'm going insane Now she comes in, flashes the grin seals the door just like my fate Off with her clothes, stone cold I am froze out comes the beast from within Whipping and slashing, kicking and slapping a girl I can't handle, I hope this is all just a dream She's just a power bitch. |

Wondering if you live your life just so you can fit Could it be real Or you're a fake Nobody's that way ... Give me a fucking break No recognition is what we should give to people like this that tell me how to live The ones who criticize, they gossip and they smile, the people that live the way that they decide This is not a puppet show No one in the world is hanging on a string Take a look around, there are people everywhere They might be doing circles but it's their own thing. |

Back in history in the roaring 20's there was a law called prohibition
No one was to drink or make alcohol Today in the 90's we have a new law People getting mugged by strung out junkie thugs Legalize Drugs People getting shot and you know it's over pot Legalize Drugs. Drugs. Legalize Drugs. History repeats that sure is the truth But does America learn from its not so distant past We have a new problem facing us today Let's take the opportunity and blow it all away People spreading AIDS because of addictive ways Legalize Drugs People needing crack might just stab you in the back Legalize Drugs. Drugs. Legalize Drugs. So now you might be saying Drugs are for losers I don't really care about the substance abusers But one day when you come home and all your things are gone you might change your mind and learn to sing this song Now let's get one thing straight, we want to let you know We're not telling you to do Drugs before or after the show We want to put an end to the murders and the crimes We believe that people should use their own minds! |

It's 2:37 pm I want to go to the store to buy some sunflower seeds
in case I got nothing to do tonight I like kids So I'm walking to the store and the neighbor's kid runs into me with a tricycle After I kicked the brat off the bike I walk into a pile of shit After that I hit my head on a stop sign so I cross the street and stumble into the store I feel like shit, I live in a ditch. My life is hell; my house smells It's 3:14 as I get into the store Walking down the frozen food section I touch the frozen burritos I pass the deli department and put my fingers in some free sample cheese dip I finally see the sunflower seed aisle There it is. The gleamy view My savory nighttime entertainment He never has any friends He doesn't care about what happens If you see him walking down the street then hide your kids and toss the key There is a guy they call him the weirdo He went to the store to buy sunflower seeds I know a guy and they call him the weirdo He doesn't care about you or me! |
