It's the darkest place
Like beneath the stairs
The "IT" it comes
And it takes everything in sight
All through the night
Leaving scars
And Crashing cars

Fiend for the fans and
Fodder for the press
Fiend for the fans and
Fodder for the press

It's my life
For everyone to see
For you a charade
For me a disease
Everything in sight
All through the night
Leaving scars
And fucking stars

Still reasoning my life

Fiend for the fans and
Fodder for the press
Fiend for the fans and
Fodder for the press

Still reasoning my life

It's do or die!
It's do or die!
It's do or die!
Not for me!

Still reasoning my life

Fiend for the fans and
Fodder for the press
Fiend for the fans and
Fodder for the press

Still reasoning my life
Fucker!

All my might
Is funeral flight
Tonight it glows for you
It's fueled with fire
A killing desire
For people you've screwed

So what you feel now
It's coming
And what you need now
It's coming
And what you feel now
It's coming
And what you need now
It's coming

Get it you want it
I've got it
I'm gonna get it good
Get it, I've got it, you want it
I'm gonna get it

What doesn't kill
It surely will
Make I stronger still
I'm fueled with fire
A Killing desire
For people you've
Screwed
Screwed

Get it you want it
I've got it
I'm gonna get it good
Get it, I've got it, you want it
I'm gonna get it

Get it

It just doesn't seem like
you're yourself anymore
Just the other day I
was saying to someone
I don't know what happened anymore
It's just not the same anymore

Get it you want it
I've got it
I'm gonna get it good
Get it, I've got it, you want it
I'm gonna get it

Get it

. . .



You did what you did
You're a fucked up kid
And now you sit and reflect
On all of the shit

Behind my back a leader
with no skills
Just the site of you is making me ill
And now you want to
run & run & run & run & run

Watershed
Watershed you've made your bed
Watershed
Watershed you've made your bed

The drive-thru windows
Calling you back kid
You lied schemed and
that is the truth of it

And now you want to
run & run & run & run & run

Watershed
Watershed you've made your bed
Watershed
Watershed you've made your bed

You've made your bed
Now you'll lie in it

Lie in it...PULL
Lie in it...PULL

Watershed
Watershed you've made your bed
Watershed
Watershed you've made your bed

Some thing told me to tell you
Not to tell me what you do
I am what I fuckin' am
Many have tried to change this man
Life's always been an uphill fight
Some things I do you may not like
Life's always bee an uphill fight
Some thing I do you may like

Something told me to tell you
Don't give it to me
Something told me to tell you
Don't give it to me

Why do you do the shit that you do?
I'm doing just what I do
No, not what I want to do
But what I've got to to do we're through
Life's always been an uphill fight
Something I do you may not like
Life's always been an uphill fight
Something I do you may not like

Something told me to tell you
Don't give it to me
Something told me to tell you
Don't give it to me

Some thing told me to tell you
Not to tell me what you do
I am what I fuckin' am
Many have tried to change this man
Life's always been an uphill fight
Some things I do you may not like
Life's always bee an uphill fight
Some thing I do you may like

Something told me to tell you
Don't give it to me
Something told me to tell you
Don't give it to me

I'm sick of this shit
I'm sick of this shit
I'm sick of this shit, motherfucker!
I'm sick of this shit
I'm sick of this shit
I'm sick of this shit

I'm out of my mind and you're driving me crazy

Don't give it to me
Don't give it to me
Don't give it to me
Don't give it to me

It's not the same, it's not same
some things are not that same anymore

Something told me to tell you
Don't give it to me
Something told me to tell you
Don't give it to me

It feels like abuse
So subtle the noose
So subtle the noose

There is no light
That's what they say
I'm checking out
Not checking in
Drawing lines
Growing out of favor
Out of favor

If it's meant to be
Then set it free
If it's meant to be
It'll come back you see

Watch what you say
And what I don't
Heard what you've asked
And no I won't
Drawing lines
Growing out of favor
Out of favor

If it's meant to be
Then set it free
If it's meant to be
It'll come back you see

Dark days, dark days, dark days
Dark days, dark days, dark days

Oh no! I feel it!
Oh no! I feel it!

Dark days, dark days, dark days
Dark days, dark days, dark days

If it's meant to be
Then set it free
If it's meant to be
It'll come back you see

So sadistic, I'm coming apart like a ten-cent toy
Soul sedition, I know it's something you enjoy
Trap, scream trap, these broken wings I'll wrap
Trap, scream trap, scream trap, scream trap

Reclusive and fleeing, I'm coming apart like a ten-cent toy
Soul sedition, I know it's something you enjoy
Trap, scream trap, these broken wings I'll wrap
Trap, scream trap, scream trap, scream trap

Here we go
Down, down, down, down
Away we go

Reclusive and fleeing, I'm coming apart like a ten-cent toy
Soul sedition, I know it's something you enjoy
Trap, scream trap, these broken wings I'll wrap
Trap, scream trap, scream trap, scream trap

Here we go
Down, down, down, down
Away we go

Sever this tie
Sever this tie
Sever this tie
Sever this tie

You do't know me
I don't know you
You don't know me
And you never will

Here we go
Down, down, down, down
Away we go

Sever this tie
Sever this tie
Sever this tie
Sever this tie

Sever what do you need them for

. . .



Never again!

All my life it's been much the same game
Altogether now who pass the blame game
I'm not the one so don't put your shame on
You're not the one that I put the blame on

There is nothing I would rather do then
Get up and explain life to you friend
There is nothing I would rather do then
Get up and explain life to you

One step forward
Two steps back
Three steps forward, Go!

People want to come and take from me everything
People want to come and leave me with nothing
I'm not the one so don't put your shame on
You're not the one that I put the blame on

There is nothing I would rather do then
Get up and explain life to you friend
There is nothing I would rather do then
Get up and explain life to you

One step forward
Two steps back
Three steps forward, Go!

why do you hide
So afraid of what you'll leave behind
why do you hide
So afraid of what you'll leave behind

One step forward
Two steps back
Three steps forward, Go!

One step forward
Two steps back
Three steps forward, Go!

Who put the blame on
Who put the blame on
Who put the blame on
It wasn't my fault

. . .



Livering alie, let's not pretend
That you like me or we are friends
We can call it for the few
That are listening tonight
We'll divide the dream cut the loss
Feel no pain, you can fuck the fame
You can fuck the fame
For the ones that are listening

All this time that I called you friend
I won't be there for you again
All this time that I called you friend
I won't be there for you anymore

Your future's bleak, you better save your skin
It's that flesh you smell, it's tat skin you're in
Your soul is rotting as well as your inners
Your mind and teeth they're getting thinner
Selfish, selfsustaining
Regrets, unmistaking
Fuck the fame, you can fuck the fame
For the ones that are listening

All this time that I called you friend
I won't be there for you again
All this time that I called you friend
I won't be there for you anymore

Sleep well, sleep tight
You know this song is about you don't you?

All this time that I called you friend
I won't be there for you again
All this time that I called you friend
I won't be there for you anymore

. . .



Love is in the air
Blinding me with smoke
You are the air I breathe
When I choke

Butterflies in the jar
Butterflies in the jar
Butterflies in the jar
So breathless

Get out of my rowboat

Captured my heart
Goodies in the basket
Stuttering the ways
I love you honey

Insects in your kiss
Insects in your kiss
Insects in your kiss
You are my sunshine

Hey, Get out of my rowboat

. . .



Keep my enemies close to me
And I've been watching you closely
Yes I despise you mostly, yes you!
You think you're tall for dogging me
You're small you see, a wannabe
A mirror of me is stolen, identity

Why'd I do it?
You drove me to it

You think you're tall for dogging me
You're small you see, a wannabe
A mirror of me is stolen, identity
I keep my friends close to me
And I've been watching you closely
Yes I despise you mostly, yes you!

Why'd I do it?
You drove me to it

You can take the high road
We'll play by my rules
You can take the high road
We'll play by my rules

Never, say never, say never, say never

Why'd I do it?
You drove me to it
Drove

Godless lot it's not a lot
But it's my lot in life
No fear is my weakness I hear
When faith has been denied

Godless lot it's not a lot
But it's my lot in life
No fear is my weakness I hear
When faith has been denied

Same as yesterday, confused

Walking through sticks using
Walking sticks
I've stuck to this song
What I feel is so hard to deal
So I say so long

Walking through sticks using
Walking sticks
I've stuck to this song
What I feel is so hard to deal
So I say so long

Same as yesterday, confused

Mine is the empty jar, the empty!!

What you see
Isn't always, isn't always
And what you believe
Isn't always, isn't always

Mine is the empty jar, the empty!!

What you see
Isn't always, isn't always
And what you believe
Isn't always, isn't always

. . .



All dressed in black
Eyes of attack
Coming with one hand in pocket
To take from me
Sin in the eyes I see
Sin is nice of me
Nothing left for me
Reality
Forget it

You have messed up
Can't do anything
And I have messed up
Can't do anything
You're just a fuckup
I'm just a fuckup
We're just two fuckups
At least we're fucked
Up together

So sad to see you go
I said to myself you
Know
So sad to see a mind
Disappear through
Time
Lunacy's an argued
Taste
I guess there's no time
To waste
Oh passing times it's a
Passing phase
Reality
Forget it

You have messed up
Can't do anything
And I have messed up
Can't do anything
You're just a fuckup
I'm just a fuckup
We're just two fuckups
At least we're fucked
Up together

We are two fuckups

You have messed up
Can't do anything
And I have messed up
Can't do anything
You're just a fuckup
I'm just a fuckup
We're just two fuckups
At least we're fucked
Up together

Together, together
Together, together...on
Paper
