And I knew that you just couldn't wait
To put your sharpened dagger in And watch the look on my face It was all you were searching for A picture frame consistent To being alone Now we're content with illusions And our arm length smiles Did you get what you wanted Did you get what you wanted now This is all that I'm asking Cause its the love we're forgetting now Did you take what you wanted Did you get what you wanted from me This is all that I'm asking This is all that I'm asking you Oh the years that have all been erased No superficial shelter could ever replace And its all you we're searching for Another adequate replacement To walk through your door We're content with illusions And our downhill eyes Did you get what you wanted Did you get what you wanted now This is all that I'm asking Cause its the love I'm forgetting now Did you get what you wanted Did you take what you wanted from me This is all that I'm asking Yeah this is all that I'm asking Have you ever felt what it means to be truly alone? Stop and think right now Have you ever been alone? Have you ever felt so cold? Have you ever felt to truly alone? So freezing cold? So find the fakest elation I hope it takes you away Now I've got it all worked out now Just a memory, picture framed illusion Did you get what you wanted Did you get what you wanted now This is all that I'm asking Cause its the love I'm forgetting now Did you get what you wanted Did you take what you needed from me This is all that I'm asking This is all that I'm asking Did you get what you wanted? NOW!!!!!! |

Would you believe
What I said if I shoved it down your throat? How unusual the lettered backdrop Do you wonder where you are The meaning of the words? Push the plunger, say good-bye Consent to manufacture, a brand new opposition It's starting right now Up and down we spend in all conditions For many years I played the fool Looked so deep inside that we can't see Much too bored to look for Touch the surface flow and ebb With nowhere left to go If I could only live like this Ideal in its birth, a drunk bewildered herd Follow the leader, come pin the tail Caught in misdirection, our spectacle distracts And it's just the right time Up and down we spend in all conditions For many years I played the fool Looked so deep inside that we can't see Much too bored to look for We always say it, we never mean it If that's enough if that's enough That's the way it looks and no one's asking why It's the right time but we don't have the time Keep it locked down It's only what your heart would say We're barely living through it, we're just surviving I'm so sick of surviving Up and down we spend in all conditions For many years I played the fool But if it's out for deception and still playing cool Like a piece of the puzzle We're so quick to salute it now Much too bored to look for We didn't say it, we never needed it If that's enough If that's enough It's the way we look and no one's asking why It's the right right time but we don't have the time Keep it locked down ignoring What your heart would say We're barely living through it, too scared to do it We didn't say it, we never needed it If that's enough If that's enough It's the way we look and no one's asking why It's the right right time but we don't have the time Keep it locked down ignoring What your heart would say We're barely living through it, too scared to do it We're so sick of surviving So sick of surviving |

Don't be afraid because there is no escape
And it won't be long now, won't be long now They got you thinking What you wanna believe Just to fall with no better way When you wear the right clothes Sing the right songs You're tuning and plugging out When you drive the right car And you digging the right crowd Tune in and plug it out Came looking here for answers and all you found was Questions for forgiveness We're giving ourselves away Human life replacement Love is gone to waste Questions for forgiveness We're giving ourselves away Human life replacement Love is gone to waste but now We're finding out That what we know better No number will ever replace me We're finding out That what we know better No number will ever replace me First comes the school Then comes the job Wife and two kids and a family car We're all falling in line And waiting to die For what? A plaque on the wall and another numeral On a corporate statistic of a government chart You know I don't need No read-out for the beat of my heart You might as well get A barcode tattooed on your arm Cause convenience has strangled art in every form Came looking here for answers and all you found was Questions for forgiveness We're giving ourselves away Human life replacement Love is gone to waste Questions for forgiveness We're giving ourselves away Human life replacement Love is gone to waste but now We're finding out That what we know better No number will ever replace me We're finding out That what we know better No number will ever replace me Came looking here for answers And all you found was questions Came looking here for answers And all you found was Questions for forgiveness We're giving ourselves away Human life replacement Love is gone to waste Questions for forgiveness We're giving ourselves away Human life replacement Love is gone to waste but now We're finding out That what we know better No number can ever replace me We're finding out That what we know better No number can ever replace me |

Couldn't see the moon
When she came tonight Emptiness inside her filled my room I know its only distance But its feels just like the end I won't ask this same old question Adamant resistance to my lasting desires Searching for an explanation to why I sleep alone Oh I'm not driving anymore If you call you just use my name Let these clenched fists open wide to see Where all the answers lie Looking for a sign that I'm still alive With these pilled up smiles And these sloppy eyes yeah Oh isnt that the truth? And all the hollow whisperings From between your sheets All the maybes in the world Don't mean anything now Pray its over soon Never slept so soundly Than with your breath on my neck The Present has no future The future has no past The past is just a graveyard For the lonely ghost REGRET It's so hard to say good-bye When I shake too much to hold Let this blood within me run So I can see the answers dry Lookin for a sign that Im still alive With this junky smile and these sloppy eyes Yeah Oh isnt that the truth? And all the hollow whisperings From between yoursheets All the maybes in the world dont mean anything now I pray its over soon Finding our directions Stumble Stagger Fall Away Oh Yeah Finding our direction Let it lead the way Part of what you borrowed Can never be replaced So pardon my deflection baby There's no more blood to bleed But if I can I'll be sewin up the seeds Pickin up whats left of me To sing together Lookin for a sign that I'm still alive With these pilled up smiles and these sloppy eyes Oh isn't that the truth? And all the hollow whisperings From between the sheets All the maybes in the world don't mean a thing Isn't that the truth? And I'm lookin for reason that Im still alive with These pilled up smiles and these sloppy eyes Isn't that the truth? And all the hollow whisperings From between your sheets All the maybes in the world don't mean anything now Pray its over soon I never slept so soundly Than with your breath on my neck |

What you want is what you findout
Once you believe that you don't really need it Here we are at the rest of our lives and I'm afraid That we no longer need it I'll wait for the next one It looks like our time here is done Memories of moments past The callous that you can't give back The moon bows to the new sun I'll wait for the next The etch of scars and memories pass Once you conceive that you don't want to feel it After all We all bled so much It's about time That we all started living I'll wait for the next one It looks like our time here is done Memories of moments past The callous that you can't give back The moon bows to the new sun I'll wait for the next You taste so sweet for only me It hurts so much to lose completely We only fight, we only fight You taste so sweet for only me It hurts so much to lose completely We only fight, we only fight What you want is what you find out once you believe That you no longer need it Well here we are at the spectacle of our sight I'm afraid That we're all slaves What you want is what you find out Once you believe You no longer need it I'll wait for the next one It looks like our time here is done Memories of moments past The callous that you can't give back The moon bows to the new sun I'll wait for the next You taste so sweet for only me It hurts so much to lose completely We only fight, we only fight You taste so sweet for only me It hurts so much to lose completely We only fight, we only fight What it is to desire |

Our Eyes are bleeding
Courtesy of everything That you could ever want to hide Our veins are dry Sometimes the truth cuts deeper Than the sharpest knife Looking is an awkward feeling When you're beaten down Anything to stop the burning We've been running all around We just survive Too busy occupied with dying to Stop and consider life So many pretty pretty pictures On the walls an on our fingertips Let's sew the borders round it Losing is an awkward feeling When your bleeded down Ain't no way to stop the burning We've been running all around ourselves And it's the choices that we choose In our everyday abuse Just a short solution to a long term problem I stabbed myself just for the scar To see if I could feel something And it's the choices that we choose Cause we're all prophetic fools Just a short solution to a long term problem I need Just one more thing To be completely blinded Shoot it up, shoot it in, Buried it under all this callous skin Losing is an awkward feeling When your bleeded down Ain't no way to stop the burning We've been running all around ourselves And it's the choices that we choose In our everyday abuse Just a short solution To a long term problem everyone Innocence is way overrated now Choking this sober feeling down I guess you've come over me So define lonely |

You can never be what never was
And to get by you Know you must become a part in a machine When minds outgrow a stationary scene They get discarded With the others never meant to be With the worst yet to be seen Cause we still eat this fruit From the tree that's in the middle of the garden And we make a bargain Have you forgotten? You're still dying in their world Just to be seen not to be heard It happens so often There's no way left to break out from this hold Of who will be bought and who will be sold Don't have to look to see it everyday It is designed for you to Think that there's no other way If you got the look they'll sell you're sound There will be dollars all around But when decisions come You'll find that you still have no say It doesn't bother most that That's the game We've all been blinded by the opportunity to play If you say what you want and you do what you say Than it's likely That you've found yourself a better way Have you forgotten? You're still dying in their world Just to be seen not to be heard It happens so often There's no way left to break out from this hold Of who will be bought and who will be sold We're still waiting in lines And we're still signing with our blood Its all that was mentioned Its all been no good Well it's the right that we haven't Forgotten the plan It's our LOVE that we're doubting Have you forgotten? You're still dying in their world Just to be seen not to be heard It happens so often There's no way left to break out from this hold Of who will be bought and who will be sold |

Look who’s got a new nose
Plastic lips and fake tits Ever tasted silicon? I’ve got scars on my eyes Look who is the best dressed Oh my gosh the worst hair Who designed that mink coat? I’ve got stars in my eyes Guess who’s got a new car? Bet she dates a rockstar I wanna make a million I’ve got lies in my mouth Eyeshadow and glitter gold Diamond rings and lip syncs Anything material I’ve got scars on my eyes Baby, you know if you’re not beautiful Just cover it up With make-up kits and perforated scalpel seams We’ll do you right up I’m so obsessed with looking like celebrities Make myself throw up But it’s all right cause one day I know I’ll be fine like everyone else Music played to advertise Logo shirts and hair styles Chop and cut monopolize I’ve got scars in my mouth Worship to the cash cow Nod your head now take a bow Faking grins and cleft chins I’ve got stars in my eyes Baby you know if you’re not beautiful Just cover it up With make-up kits and perforated scalpel seams We’ll do you right up I’m so obsessed with livin like celebrities Make myself throw up With staple skin and back stab flattery I’m coughin it up Hey, little darlin' I’ll sell you the definition If you follow me through Pages and channels of deceit where everyone is perfect And nobody grows old Relax in the ignorance of images Cause beautiful is what we’re sellin... It's not how you feel It's only how you look! |

Yeah she moves so slowly like a lovers breath
Hoping I can hold it down and stand But the aches and shakes don't seem to let up, no no I got all the questions, and She has all the answers for me now Oh I don't believe it, no I don't believe her now One more hope for tomorrow Baby, one more kiss to forget you Right, just what will bring us down It keeps us together remembering Its so easy to forget Its so easy to forget When you move so slow darling Yeah she moves so slowly like a lovers breath Hoping I can tear down the walls And breathe what I never knew All this girl could get into I've got so many questions And she got all the answers for me now Oh I can't believe her, no I don't believe it now One more hope for tomorrow One more drink to forget Just what will bring us down Keeps us together remembering Its so easy to forget When I'm inside her I don't think twice When she's in my blood you know it feels so nice Shaking in the morning like I've been kicked all night When she's in my blood you know it feels so nice I'm shaking in the morning like I've been kicked all night Sneaky sneaky serpent With the tricks up his sleeve Lips like licorice but you can't catch me Deep between the covers Listening to her heart's beat Till defeat and surrender of what's being covered up Cause I don't want to give up What's little last of my luck So many opportunities That are boarded up and gently put away You move so slowly I can't even feel it moving You move so slowly I can't believe it |
