Mike Bordin [Drum, Black Sabbath]

HEY! WHAT?? "Oh nothing, just wondering why it is you're doing
that whatever it is you're doing. "Oh yeah, why?" I dunno it just
doesn't seem like something >you'dyou

Now I gotta murder da' murder ta' get away
The eyes gotta peer now the fool's gotta pay
And if they pay then they pay with they life
So watch another man try to hold on to his life

Cause' I keep lookin' and huntin' just like a lion
Let the sucka' know that it's them that be dyin'
I show no remorse to the source of the tales
And if they tell then the hungry better battle

Aw I keep it comin' and comin' across the table
And if I miss, I never miss, cuz Im able
I'm lookin' forward and I'm lookin' over my shoulder
And I'll make a simple sin to make the bonus
But I'll never bless the rest, so never cease
I'll do a motherfucker with this restin' piece
Cause' what they saw they never seen or even heard of
And if they live, it's just another body murdered....
.....another body murdered....

I'm makin' deals for deals that make a kill
And anyone looking gonna' get that ass killed
I'm livin' like a criminal and criminal I be
And I'm respected in the hood like a 'G'
But if they think I'm blasted then they gone
I'm takin' off they're head with a motherfuckin' chrome
I gotta pay the play the pay ta' get crooked
And I ain't 'BOO' til' I dump another fool
I see the fool runnin' and runnin' but where they goin' ?
Had to witness my murder now they knowin'
What they blast so blast so at the pad
I'll have the thing fixed...My life was goin' in a flash....
If I went to say
---- that'd be my ass
Searching for these fools while stepping cross the squares
Cause they can't hide and hide and that's real
And what you just witnessed with your eyes got ta' kill....
.....another body murdered.....

Bang your head to this....Turn me up!....another body murdered

...Faith No More....
I had to get it together to watch a body get murdered, ehh...
Boo-Yaa T.R.I.B.E...

I have to get it together to watch a body get murdered

Bang your head...come on...Bang your head....
....Bang your head.......Bang you head to this....

I see a fool an' I try an' test the fool
I testify that the fool will have to lose
Boo-Yaa T.R.I.B.E. gotta keep it low
Cause the brother that was shot with my motherfuckin Uz..ooooh...
As I bail with my head up
Round they crowd someone kicks my luck and then I get up
All these busters on my trail
Well they get where I'm at, but the fail cause' they can't bail
I keep bailin' I been stickin' my shit ever since they've had me jailed in
But it ain't all about servin' time...
It's about breakin' down the verd(ict) and servin' mine....

Another pass or passive
You wanta' play it by the Ridd did the king start blastin'
All these fools goin' up they sigh
They try to test mine
They never get to know why
Oooh how long can you live when a gangster like the Ridd keep smokin' that ass.....

Bang your head to this...

Turn me up.....I had to get it together to watch a body get murdered..ehh
Faith No More......I had to get it together to watch a body get murdered
Boo-Yaa T.R.I.B.E.....Murder well I won...

Has it been so long?
Do you think we know?
Do you think we care?
Die...for the here and now
Do you remember why?
Do you remember how?

Face .... out
Stick your chest .... out
Stomach .... in
Thats right

Do you really know
Where the harems go
In the desert snow? Hail,
An oasis dream doesn't really seem
To mean a thing when you're out .... cold

So, hands .... up
Put your guards .... up
Feet .... down
Up .... down
Forward .... march
Left .... right
Cold .... cold
I feel cold

Has it been so long
Do you think we know
Do you think we care
Die for the here and now
Do you remember why
Do you remember how

Face out
Stick your chest out
Stomach in
Thats right

Do you really know
Where the harems go
In the desert snow Hail
An oasis dream doesn't really seem
To mean a thing when you're out cold

So, hands up
Put your guards up
Feet down
Up down
Forward march
Left right
Cold cold
I feel cold

One day you're thinking that maybe you're feeling better
And you're probably an OK person, if only you had a job...
Through the hollow tombs can see them
Through their mouths I can hear them praying for pain
But it's only a game

Listen, man, I know
That things are really rough
And everybody gets you
And life is really tough
But I know that deep down inside
There's a feeling that rides
All the way to the end

Thursday you sit in your room with the lights turned out
And you don't answer the door
Friday morning looks sunny and bright
Like it's going to be a good day
And it would be if only you had a job

Time is on your side, you're young
Don't waste your time today

I want them to know it's me
It's on my head
I'll point the finger at me
It's on my head

Give it all to you, then I'll be closer

Smilin' with the mouth of the ocean
And I'll wave to you with the arms of the mountain
I'll see you

I will let you shout no more
It's on my head
I'll pick you up from the floor
It's on my head
I'll let you even the score

It doesn't really matter, the things you say to me
Cause if I had a ladder, up there is where I'd be
Outta here where the air is cold, you're messing with my mind
Hey! You do it every time, Hey! And the season comes around
Once more,once more.


It doesn't really matter, the things you try to say
It doesn't really matter, you say 'em every day
Right now just give me more blood
Just give it to me deep red
A flowing river crimson
A flowing river burning with desire


It's great, but I never said how great
Hey, you never really asked, well, I'm asking you right now
So shut up and explain
What's on your mind

They all know me by my car
They all know I'm gone, but not how far
I'm heading straight down 101
I'm going to go and get me some
My lips are movin' but there's no sound
Someday somebody's gonna get run down
E?non posso dirigir
E agora a pares
Ne?dedu indehado
No ne?naris
My lips are movin' but there's no sound
Someday somebody's gonna get run down

Candle light, it burns in every hole of your eyes
It's beautiful, how much you'll never realize
So hush my love, there's something I'm to tell you now
Your time has come, around again my sleepless one
Your friend was young, hung and plastered
He never knew his own disaster
I think it's good, in fact it was faster
Cause it was you that he was after


Hold me now, as if you'll never let me go
Unhand me now, as if you've always known my name
His love was king, his love was master
He needed more, he needed always
He searched in vein for love and shelter
In every soul, in every hallway


So you thought she'd be sweeter than your girlfriend Peter
Well give it a second chance cause you've yet to meet her
We got the same ideas, we got the same old fears
They're different colors sometimes, but, hey, who cares?
Just years that tears our lives apart
Just like the time that you tried to teach your cousin to walk
He couldn't do it-push!-you told him twice
Well, I do man but it just don't jive


Tried so hard to control my behavior
I tried so hard, so hard to believe you
But now I live only to deceive you...

Collision, My mission,
When the dawn breaks
With a handshake
Relaxed and feelin' great

Screeching' head on, head on, head on
I'm needing a head on, head on, head on
Screeching', head on, head on, head on
I'm needing a head on, head on, head on

All the day's plans
All the shaken' hands
Beepers and suntans

Screeching', head on, head on, head on
I'm needing a head on, head on, head on
Screeching', head on, head on, head on
I'm needing a head on, head on, head on

Collision, My mission

Head on, head on, head on, head on

(sample of people talking)

When the dawn breaks
With a handshake
Relaxed and feelin' great

Collision, My Mission
Head on, head on, head on,
Head on, head on, head on,

Head on,
Head on,
Head on

It's cold and it's
Smooth and it's
A hard shade of white
And everybody needs to lick the surface clean
But it never tastes better
White blooms to white and
freezes white again
Close it before something crawls in
Commit it, leave it, get away-
we always
Drop our good side
Being good gets you stuff
Being stuff gets you good
Good stuff gets you being
And wheelin' and dealin' and squealin'
Shit lives forever
They have no legs, but chase us anyway
Wipe the shadow of your best friend
Gave birth to something we don't want to be
We drop our good side
You can't kill it
Eat is just as deep as you can fuck it
So cough it up or go down
And there's only one thing that separates
A man...
Shit lives forever
We'll retire with a turd on our lips
Under a pair of knowing eyes
I'm gonna take a few down with me
And drop my good side
You can't kill it
Take it from our drummer, "Puff"
Being good it gets you stuff

There's nothing I'd like more than to let you in
But now you're on the other side and there's no way
To feel your breath of life upon my face
Cause with the state you're in there wouldn't be a trace
No I wake up every night with this emptiness inside
Hasn't been the same since you left without a trace

It would be wrong to ask you why
Because I know what goes inside
Is only half of what comes out
Isn't that what it's about?
To remind us we're alive
To remind us we're not blind
In that big, black hole
Comfortable
Digging the grave, I got it made
Let something in, or throw something out?
You left the door open wide
I know you have a reason why
That knot is better left untied
I just went and undid mine
It takes some time
And the shadows so big
It takes the sun out of the day
And the feeling goes away
If you close the door
Comfortable

Come here, my love
I'll tell you a secret
Come closer, now
I want you to believe it

I'll tell you all the things
You want to hear
Don't worry, baby
There's nothing to fear

Hey, little girl
Would you like some candy?

Look into my eyes
I've seen it all
Hand in hand
Together we fall

We'll sing and dance
And we'll find romance
And we'll stroll to the edge of the world

Come sit right down
Lay your head on my shoulder
It's not the point
That I'm forty years older

You can trust me
I'm no criminal
But I'd kill my mother
To be with you

We'll sing and dance
And we'll find romance
And we'll stroll to the edge of the world

Give me a smile
Let me see those pearlies
I'll do anything
For the little girlies...

Can you feel it, see it, hear it today?
If you can't, then it doesn't matter anyway
You will never understand it cuz it happens too fast
And it feels so good, it's like walking on glass
It's so cool, it's so hip, it's alright
It's so groovy, it's outta sight
You can touch it, smell it, taste it so sweet
But it makes no difference cuz it knocks you off your feet

You want it all but you can't have it

It's cryin', bleedin', lying on the floor
So you lay down on it and you do it some more
You've got to share it, so you dare it
Then you bare it and you tear it

You want it all but you can't have it
It's in your face but you can't grab it

It's alive, afraid, a lie, a sin
It's magic, it's tragic, it's a loss, it's a win
It's dark, it's moist, it's a bitter pain
It's sad it happened and it's a shame

You want it all but you can't have it
It's in your face but you can't grab it

What is it?
It's it
What is it?...

If you want to open your hole
Just put your head down and go
Step beside the piece of the circumstance
Got to wash away the taste of evidence
Wash it away - evidence
I didn't feel a thing
It didn't mean a thing
Look in the eye and testify:
I didn't feel a thing
Anything you say, we know you're guilty
Hands above your head,
and you won't even feel me
You won't feel me

Back and forth, I sway with the wind
Resolution slips away again
Right through my fingers, back into my heart
Where it's out of reach and it's in the dark
Sometimes I think I'm blind
Or I may be just paralyzed
Because the plot thickens every day
And the pieces of my puzzle keep crumblin' away
But I know, there's a picture beneath
Indecision clouds my vision
No one listens...
Because I'm somewhere in between
My love and my agony
You see, I'm somewhere in between
My life is falling to pieces
Somebody put me together
Layin' face down on the ground
My fingers in my ears to block the sound
My eyes shut tight to avoid the sight
Anticipating the end, losing the will to fight
Droplets of "yes" and "no"
In an ocean of "maybe"
From the bottom, it looks like a steep incline
From the top, another downhill slope of mine
But I know, the equilibrium's there
Indecision clouds my vision
No one listens
Because I'm somewhere in between
My love and my agony
You see, I'm somewhere in between
My life is falling to pieces
Somebody put me together

Styling, you know you are styling
So turn to the mirror and blow yourself a kiss
It goes just like this
You've done it a thousand times
It's as easy as drinking wine, only now it's blood
Here it come again
(treating you so kind)
Till it comes again
(leaving you no mind)


Your feelings, they flow without reason
So look to the stars above and
Blow it all away
I come without warning
Some call me morning,
I wipe all your tears away, the evil ones I kill
Here it comes again
(treating you so kind)
Till it comes again

Tossed into my mind, stirring the calm
You splash me with beauty and pull me down
You come from out of nowhere
My glance turns to a stare
Obsession rules me-I'm yours from the start
I know you see me-Our eyes interlock
You come from out of nowhere
My glance turns to a stare
One minute here and one minute there
Don't know if I'll laugh or cry
One minute here and one minute there
And then you wave good-bye...
Sifting to the bottom, every day for two
All energy funnels, all becomes you
You come from out of nowhere
My glance turns to a stare
One minute here and one minute there
Don't know if I'll laugh or cry
One minute here and one minute there
And it hurts inside
One minute here and one minute there
And then you wave good-bye...

What if there's no more fun to have?
And all I've got is what I had
What if I have forgotten how?
Cut my losses and get out now
Get out right now
There's something stronger than me
There's something I don't want to see
A new thing growing in me
It is the hardest thing to do
To watch it grow on top of you
And see you're just like everyone
No fun
Why don't you speak that language anymore?
My blood is not that color anymore
My blood don't shine that same way anymore
I can not deny it anymore
No!

Got that feeling
Luck is a little of it
I got that feeling
I cant stop winning

A to Z
Look what you're missing
As we speak
Your number's rising
Take a peak
There's just enough to go around
Get a piece
Your own little piece of hell

Get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get your gold
Get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get your gold
Get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get your gold
Get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get your gold
Get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get your gold
Get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get your gold
Get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get your gold
Get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get your gold

Got that feeling
Loving every minute of it
Got that feeling
I can't stop winning
Stop winning

Have a drink
A pot of coffee
Cannot think
To many friends here
Just an inch between striking out and striking rich
If that's the risk, why not take it, take it, take it

Get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get your gold
Get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get your gold
Get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get your gold
Get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get your gold
Get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get your gold
Get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get your gold
Get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get your gold
Get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get your gold

Got that feeling
Loving every minute of it
Got that feeling
I can't stop winning
And start living
Start winning
Start living

You can't borrow, tomorrow

Over the hills they came from the valley
Making innuendoes about my lack of talent, oh well...
They say that when I'm supposed to be singing
All I 'm really doing is yelling, oh well...
To you I say ....

Break out or get out
Then they say that I can't sing
That I don't say a thing
That I make everything up...oh well
To you I say...

Break out or get out
Break out or get out

Get out of your mind
Cause it's much too small
And there's so much going on

Day is warm, I hear
The wind and the trees
I know I'm there, but I'll never be...
The wind is soft tonight
The tide is low
And I know the way
I never felt better, now

Sometimes life, it moves too slow
Slows to a crawl,
And then the poetry is lost
And without speed,
Hope becomes certainty
And for once, I'm certain
I never felt better, now

A garden is it's own perfect world
Where everything has a place
Mmm, every leaf, every stone
Every speck of dirt
But where's my place?
I never felt better, now

I even tried
To get arrested today,
But everyone looked the other way
I count the hours
And I count the days
But for once, I'm certain
I never felt better, now

Don't want your help
Don't need your help
Don't want your help
Don't need your help

Helpless x5
[You found a way to make me say, "Help me please someone"] x2

The water's clean
I see that it's full of dimes
For every wish, I wonder why
Why all I want
Is something beautiful
A place to rest
I never felt better now

Don't want your help
Don't need your help
Don't want your help
Don't need your help

You found a way to make me say, "Help me please someone" x5
[Helpless] (repeated)
Found a way, found a way,
found a way to make me say, "Help me pleas someone"
[HELP!!!] x12

From the day I was born, I took the bull by the horns, and gave you
plenty to scorn, well right on! Then you said in a song that life was
gettin real tough, but hey I think that you're bluffing, what of it?

Introduce yourself (right on!)

Now two decades gone by and I know that's a long time, para tiempo means
nada nunca. Cause I'm still the same asshole and I still wet my pants
every time that I see your face (who are you?)

Introduce yourself (right on!)

Hey Mr. Biggs, Hey Mr. Bestall, Hey Mr. Warner what's up?
Hey Mr. Enigma, Hey Mr. Bigtime, Hey Mr. Epic, What's going on?

Introduce yourself (right on!)

Sky is clear tonight
Sky is clear tomorrow
A star is out
I reach for one to sparkle in my hand
A star is out
I will not touch you, I am just a man
Sky is clear tonight
Sky is clear tomorrow
And every night I shut my eyes
So I don't have to see the light
Shining so bright
I'll dream about a cloudy sky,
a cloudy sky
I'll dream about a cloudy sky, a cloudy
"Man was born to love-
Though often he has sought
Like Icarus, to fly too high-
And far too lonely than he ought
To kiss the sun of east and west
And hold the world at his behest-
To hold the terrible power
To whom only gods are blessed-
But me, I am just a man"
And every night I shut my eyes
So I don't have to see the light
Shining so bright
I'll dream about a cloudy sky, a cloudy sky
And every night I shut my eyes
But now I've got them open wide
You've fallen into my hands
And now you're burning me
You're burning me

It is not a good day, if you are not looking good
This is the best party that I've ever been to
Today I asked for a god to pour some wine
in my eyes
Today I asked for someone to shake some
salt on my life
Look!
Everything's spinning
(We're on the ground)
Never cheer before you know who's winning
(Don't make a sound)
Sniff the glass and let it roll around on you tongue
Let me introduce you to someone before the party is done
Someone to look to in need or in want or in war
If you give him everything, he may give you even more
This is the best party I've ever been to
Don't let me die with that silly look in my eyes

This is getting old
and so are you.
Everything you know
and never knew.
Will run through your fingers
just like sand.

Enjoy it while you can.

Like a snake between two stones
it itches in your bones.
Take a deep breath and swallow
your sorrow
tomorrow.

So raise it up and lets propose a toast.
To the thing that hurts you most.

It's your last cup of sorrow.
What can you say?
Finish it today.
It's your last cup of sorrow.
So think of me
and get on your way.

It won't begin
until you make it end.
Until you know the how the where and the when.
With a new face you might surprise yourself.

Like a snake between two stones

Love...it's a beginning
A justifiable means to an end
And happiness, that triumphant feeling
Only comes from within
But ...you'll...never make the grade
No you'll never, ever reach that plateau
You're down below
And it's where your soul will forever glow
But it's not that ray of sunshine that feels so warm
It's just that bottomless inferno

You're in the depths of hell
And I think that's swell
And I hope you get well

Well done, fried in and out
Burned to a crisp, if that's what I wish
I didn't write the rules
I just follow them to a tee
Cause that's me, I'm evil
I'm hateful, I'm sinful, forgetful, mistrustful
I'm diseased and contagious
I'm suicide, homicide, genocide, pesticide

I'm a human bomb
I'll kill anyone
And so are you, So don't be coy
Cause you too can destroy me like a toy
Not like Mark Bowen
He never done nothin' to no one
... That didn't deserve it

Go on and wring my neck
Like when a rag gets wet
A little discipline
For my pet genius
My head is like a lettuce
Go on and dig your thumbs in
I cannot stop giving
I'm thirty-something
Sense of security
Like pockets jingling
Midlife crisis
Suck ingenuity
Down through the family tree
You're perfect, yes, it's true
But without me you're only you
Your menstruating heart
It ain't bleedin' enough for two
It's a midlife crisis...
What an inheritance
The salt and the Kleenex
Morbid self attention
Bending my pinky back
A little discipline
A donor by habit
A little discipline
Rent an opinion
Sense of security
Holding blunt instrument
I'm a perfectionist
And perfect is a skinned knee
You're perfect, yes, it's true
But without me you're only you
Your menstruating heart
It ain't bleeding enough for two
It's a midlife crisis...........

Ahhhhey!
Ahhhhey!
You tied the knot,
a legend is what you bought
I give you cold water,
And you swear it was wine
You bought time
If you can fool yourself,
Then why not them?
Just keep passing it,
mouth to mouth to mouth
Ahhhhey!
Ahhhhey!
You tied the knot,
a legend is what you bought
I give you cold water,
And you swear it was wine
You bought time
If you can fool yourself,
Then why not them?
Just keep passing it,
mouth to mouth to mouth
I can dress up the dead man, but I can't bring him back to life
Bring it out, bring it out
Ahhhhey!
You tied the knot,
peeled your skin off,
leave a bungle of nerves
I give you a wet noodle,
you swear that it was my tongue
A sharp one
Instead of that same old
mouth to mouth to mouth to mouth
I can dress up the dead man, I can't bring him back to life
Bring it out, bring it out
Ahhhhey!
Ahhhhey!
Mouth to mouth
Mouth to mouth
Mouth to mouth
Ahhhhey!
Mouth to mouth
Mouth to mouth
Mouth to mouth to mouth to mouth
I can dress up the dead man, but I can't bring him back to life
I can dress up the dead man, but I can't bring him back to life
I can dress up the dead man, but I can't bring him back to life
I can dress up the dead man, but I can't bring him back to life
I can dress up the dead man, but I can't bring him back to life ...

My box is full
And my mouth is full
And my life is full

And now my memory's full
In how many ways and words
Can you say nothing
Millions of ways and words
To say nothing

What'd I say,
I'm empty

I bought the thing
I taught the thing
And I fought the thing

They said it's normal,
but they're keeping me dumb and hot
You're missing something
Keeping me dumb and hot
You must be missing something
Keeping me dumb and hot

What'd I say
I'm empty
What I say
I'm empty

I'm sending it back to you
I'm sending it back to you
I'm sending it back to you
I'm sending it back to you
I'm sending it back to you

A glow in her eye
As he waved goodbye
That's where it all began
She was a loving girl
He was a caring guy
Together they had plans
They were married and had a baby
His name was Johnnie

Wait a minute, that's me
Why am I only three years old again
Spinning and spinning and spinning

There was no gleam in your eye
When you passed us by
In the parade this time
You had nothing to say
And you're always on your way somewhere
But today you just stood still
You were a quiet kind of person
Who asked for nothing and got just that
So they sent you away to kill for your country

Could you blame him?
Could you blame them?
No. And in the end
When we meet again we're friends
Will we ever learn that we are always God's children
And gods never made moral decisions
They made love

You squirt out red and turn so yellow
And then you made me kill my own
I'm not afraid (coming, coming,...)
But I'm afraid (coming, coming,...)

(chorus)
Blood in your eyes again
Bravery, the face of man
Blood on your mind again
Chivalry, the face of man
Blood in your lies again
Enemy, the face of man
Blood in your eyes again
Again, again, again

Is this the only path of glory?
If so, then I won't go along
Follow the trail (running, running,...)
Follow the trail (running, running,...)

(repeat chorus)

Again (x 21)

I'm not afraid
But I'm afraid
I'm not afraid
But I'm afraid

I'm watching you
I'm watching

You shall weep no more
It's your last breath of air
These walls won't week them out
They'll keep you in
But who's going to protect you?

Who's going to protect you?

Who?

In every dark land
In every flower bed
In every marriage bed

I'll be with you

I'm watching you

Don't put that thing too close to my head
It took this long just to get ahead, he says
He knows for sure, but that he can't decide
Between his decency and this matter of pride
So he's growing up on time, he's growing up in the middle...

And it burns, and it burns, the sun burns
Oh, now I can really feel it. How could you ever stand it?

We've got the same ideas, we got the same old fears;
Different colors sometimes, but hey, who cares?
It's just years that shears our lives apart, like the
Time you tried to teach your nephew to fart, he couldn't do it. PUSH!
So he's growing up on time, I'm growing up in the middle...

Oh, now I can really feel it. How could you ever stand it?
I'm not the kind of person who would say it, if it wasn't the truth
And then you go and tell a friend that her heart's on fire
And it has no meaning.
Now and only now I know the difference when you tell me
There is no difference.
So she's growing up on time, she's growing up in the middle...

Now's the time to evaluate between the love you give
And the love that you take.
"It's not a matter of opinion, when it comes down to it,
It's just a difference of opinion, that much I can take."
So I'm growing up on time, I'm growing up in the middle...

And it burns

All of that thick time without you
Has made me so thick and drunk
"and it's okay to laugh about it"
I said, "it's okay to laugh about it"
Running twice as fast to stay in the same place
Don't catch my breath to the end of the day
And I'd rather be shot in the face
Then hear what you're going to say
One day the wind will come up
And you'll come up empty again
-And who'll be laughing then?-
You'll come up empty again
No reasons-no explanation-so play the violins
It's always funny until someone gets hurt...
And Then it's just hilarious!
You beat me every time you blink
If only I did not have to think
Think about you crackin' a smile
Think about you all the while
On the ricochet - it's going to hit you
It's always funny until someone gets hurt
You can laugh at me - when it misses you

I'm here, alone,
on the the telephone line
I'm right where you want me to be
And I'll wait alone and never ask why
I'll be where you want me to be

And I know
And I know
And I know
And I know

I've been here before, and I know your kind
You're right where I want you to be
Now I'll say what I think,
I'll never be what you want me to be

Just to be who I am
What you want me to be
You'll be on your knees

Tell me, tell me
Tell me, tell me
Tell me it's not true

Tell me it's not true

She looked at me and did the bosa nova
I smiled at her and then just walked away
then the lights came on and it was over
to my surprise, she wasn't a girl at all
so I packed it up and took to a rock show...
where you can feel the pulse getting stronger
& you can only hear the beat for so long
I asked if there was any way to stop it
No, he said, just smile and act as if...
you worship the very ground on which they walk on
no way
a temporary absence of gesture
a hidden meaning known to everyone
a slight misconception of leizure
don't see how that could hurt anyone...I know...but


spirit, excellence, further down the road,
these are the tools you'll need further down the road.


so lets pack it up and take it somewhere special
from a quintessential, existential nightmare
to a sanctuary waiting in the sun

Star A.D.
See tomorrow dreamin'
You don't need your freedom
Star A.D.
A little joke that's understood
All over the world
A little joke that's understood
It's all over and over and over and over
And dying is dry-
Like a fact of history
And when you die, you'll become
something worse
Than dead-
You'll become
A legend
We are forever

It's over today
The heat is gone
Time is gone
F for fake
I feel no wrong
Hide no wrong
I love this place
The lights
Under this face
So dry

Only way to change
Give yourself away
Don't be ashamed
Next in line
Close one eye
Just walk by

In these days
I'm breathing stone
Crying alone
I'll win this race
I'll leave alone
arrive alone.

Love this place
The lights
Under this face
So dry

Stripped to the bone
I did no wrong
Truth is my name
Give yourself away

F for fake
F for fake
F for fake
F for fake
Give yourself away
Give yourself away
Give yourself away

Surprise! You're dead!
Ha ha! Open your eyes
See the world as it used to be when you used to be in it
When you were alive and when you were in love
And when I took it from you!
It's not over yet
You don't remember?
I won't let you forget
The hatred I bestowed
Upon your neck with a fatal blow
From my teeth and my tongue
I've drank and swallowed, but it's just begun
Now you are mine
I'll keep killing you until the end of time
Surprise! you're dead!
Guess what?
It never ends...
The pain, the torment and torture, profanity
Nausea, suffering, perversion, calamity
You can't get away

I can wait to love in heaven
I can wait for you
Far away, I'll treat you better
Better than down here
Cuz I done wrong
And I'm a little afraid
I ain't to strong
And this ain't easy to say:
Take this bottle
Take this bottle
And just walk away-the both of you
And let me feel the pain-I've done to you
I can hope we'll be together
With a better roof over our heads
I can hope the stormy weather
It passes on-it passes on-
But I've hoped too long
Hoped for me to change
That hope is gone
So listen to what I say:
Take this bottle

I can wait to love in heaven
I can wait for you
Far away, I'll treat you better
Better than down here
Cuz I done wrong
And I'm a little afraid
I ain't to strong
And this ain't easy to say:
Take this bottle
Take this bottle
And just walk away-the both of you
And let me feel the pain-I've done to you
I can hope we'll be together
With a better roof over our heads
I can hope the stormy weather
It passes on-it passes on-
But I've hoped too long
Hoped for me to change
That hope is gone
So listen to what I say:
Take this bottle

"And after all the feelings go, I see I still love you so
I just thought I'd let you know now that everything's okay
And you are on your way back, back to where you came"
She said with pain in her heart, it was there from the start

Now I know why everything turns grey, but it's our own world we paint
And I want the brightest, I want florescence every day and night
For the rest of my life, open your eyes, won't you?
Can't you see you're so beautiful to me?

Don't look back, as a matter of fact
There's a ten foot Jack wants to break your back
You stole his girl, you wrecked his world
Now it's your your head that he's gonna twirl

He won't think once, he won't think twice
'Cause he knows just what he's gonna do tonight
He will commit a crime, a crime of love
And he won't be happy 'til he sees your blood

Looking back on when you left me
Standing in the rain
Don't look back, as a matter of fact
There's a son of a bitch and he's digging a ditch
For you my friend, my lucky one

So grab your things, it's time to run to the other side
Where love takes pride
And your soul's the only thing that stays alive

Ma maooba goo goo ga ga
Hey! Quit talkin that terminal jive!
Looking back on when I left you...
Crying in pain
Don't look back...(1st verse)

Looking back on when you left me
Standing in the rain, incredible pain
I understand, you have to be your own person and that's ok with me
Hurts, hurts, hurts like a like a motherfucker
Love, it hurts, it kills, like a sonofabitch

That feeling, it gets me, down inside, deep down there
No further, keep going, oh man, that's right out my system
