Papa Roach Album

This music is my time
To reel out and rewind
I'll be brutal with truth
I'd rather be honest with my soul
Be the pile of trash
A bum picks through to get a bite to eat
I'm filthy
I'm horny
I'm dirty nasty dirty

I'm strong and fearless
Only 'cause I got rock 'n' roll
I'm knee-deep in our blood
Only 'cause I got rock 'n' roll

C'mon
Baby c'mon
Yeah
Baby c'mon
Break it

Crazier than I ever was
I'm bloodied up I beat my skull in
Comin' home in a body bag
And I'm ready to die for rock 'n' roll
I can't change the world
I can only change myself
I'm as sharp as a knife
As high as a kite
Demented as the night is long

I'm not sheddin' a tear
I'm blowin' some steam
Stuck in between
Living a dream

Baby c'mon

My mind has been shut down
My friends have been let down
What is the reason
There's millions of reasons
Single me out
Tear off my front
Make me expose what I conceal
Life is a bullet
The bloodstains prove it
It's tearing through you and me
Not caring about you or me
Now I could explain everything
You cursed the fire
Now fuck the flame
What is the reason
There's millions of reasons
Blindfold me now
Spin me around
Picking me up
When I fall down
Today I feel blue
My head is in the clouds
Separate me
My soul from my body
Feeling so lonely
I'm not the only one
Separate me
My soul from my body
I'm in love with too many things

Yes I did it and I'll do it again
It doesn't matter if I am your best friend
I don't think so
You're not that smart
Over and over it breaks my heart
The cycle continues time for your crime
The pain comes back in an ugly design
Her makeup smears
The tears that she cries
Over and over every night

Emotional swords slash my soul
And now the pain takes control
I think about you
I think about me
Think about the way that it used to be
I need a bottle
I need some pills
I need a friend
I need some thrills
A shoulder to cry on a friend to depend on
When life gets rough

Time and time again
You think about yourself before you think about me
Time and time again
You think about yourself before you think about me

It's like a fight every single day
It's always easy when you have it your way
Deep in my heart
In the depths of my soul
My selfish ways are out of control
I'm sorry that it comes down to this
I punch through the wall as I break my fist
The makeup smears
Tears that we cry
Over and over every night

You're so selfish
You're making me want to end this relationship
You're making me want to end this

Loving ties unwind
Lost time behind
Loving ties unwind
Lost time behind

Wish I could see you for one last time
Wish I could say goodbye to you
It's hard to deal with you dying
It's time to say goodbye to you
Bloody-faced
Kissing death
Walking through barbed wire
I'll let you go
Let me go digging thru myself
I would die for you
I'd walk right thru barbed wire
Good luck in your next life
Walk as tall as the trees
Be gentle as spring winds
And have the warmth of summer sun
I would die die for you
I'd walk right through barbed wire
I blame myself for your death
It's tearing me apart
I would die die for you
Yes I would
Let you go
Let me go digging through myself
Bloody-faced
Kissing death

Here today gone today
Hurry up and wait
I'm never there for you or me
Can't you read the story of our lives
Death to me and life for you
Something isn't right
And I need some space to
Clear my head to think about
My life

And I can't be alone

I just need some space
To clear my head to think about my life
With or without you

We fight it out
We work it out
Give me some time to unwind

I must confess
I'm falling apart
Breaking your heart
Crying with you on the phone
We're walking on thin ice
I hope it doesn't break

Mile by mile we're farther apart
And it's one empty bottle
And two broken hearts
Night after night we are falling apart
Now it's two broken bottles
And four empty hearts

Decompression
Depression period

Fed-up
Tired
Sick and twisted
One-man army
I'm enlisted
Trust yourself trust no one else
Fuck a hero be yourself
I don't need your lousy hand-out
Clinched fists i'll fight my way out
Fighting my way out
Find my way out

People wake up and sing along
I trust no one
My trust is gone

Born with nothing
Die with everything

In a daze
These days go by
Faster and faster I speed through life
Now I've got to take control
Of my mental and my physical
Never sheltered from life's hard storms
I was cold but now I am warm
Inside I'm warm

Searching and finding the truth inside myself
Inside myself

My soul was starving
I was born with nothing
I'll die with everything

When I see her eyes look into my eyes
Then I realize that she can see inside my head
So I close my eyes thinking that I could hide
Disassociate so I don't have to lose my head
The situation, is to adjatation if she cut me off
Would this be an amputation?

[Chorus:]
I don't know if I care
I'm the jerk, life's not fair
Fighting all the time
This is out of line
She loves me not, loves me not!
Do you realize I won't compromise
She loves me not, loves me not!

Over the past five years I have shed my tears
I have drank my beers and watch my fingers fly away
Then until this day you still swing my way
But its sad to say sometimes she says she loves me not
But I hesatate to tell her I hate
This relationship I wanted to date this is over

[Chorus]
Life's Not Fair
I'm the jerk!

Line for line, ryhme for ryhme
Sometimes I be writin' all the goddam time
It's makin' me sick
Relationship is gettin' ill
This your stupid man
On the lil, could you feel
What I feel, what's the deal girl
We're tearin' up each others world
We should be in harmony boy and girl
That is a promise we made
Back in the day
You told me that things wouldn't be this way
I think we should work this out
'Cause all I didn't mean is to scream and shout

[Chorus]

Life's not fair!
Life's not fair!
Life's not fair!
I'm the jerk!
Life's not fair!
She loves me not!
Loves me not!

Blood of my blood
Skin of my skin
A normal human being
Solder and wires
Circuitry
We're far from human beings

He's sick of his skin
It's time to trade it in
A galaxy of emotions
Your soul is what it costs
We walk the same path
No body could get in our way
Dangerously
We passionately never hesitate

Keep the soul
That's control
Now you put in the metal

Biological
Spiritual
Electrical
Digital
S.I.D.

Willing to make the change
Surrender the flesh and bones
Against the grain
Pushing beyond the limits of ourselves
This body is just a cage
You're dead and you're in a grave
We're losing our minds
That's just fine
Living forever

Bleed out my blood
Skin off my skin
Solder the wire
Transformation
Take my body and
Release me from this cage
You can't put a spirit in a grave

Singular Indestructible Droid

Bloody-human-robot

This is making me crazy
These black clouds following me
So I look for signs of light
But rarely I see them
I return to my shelter
And I crawl in a bottle
I'm losing my will for this
So over emotional

Black clouds
They rain down
But they can't kill the sun

Confession
Of depression
This life i'm second-guessing
Like ashes
To ashes
I always seem to fall down
I'm tired
Of running
It's time to face my demons
Confession
Of depression
This life I'm second-guessing

My emotions are storming
And tears fall just like rain
Pain strikes like lightning
Despair is becoming my friend

I return to my shelter
And I crawl in a bottle
I'm losing my will for this
So over emotional

Black clouds
They rain down
But they can't kill the sun

Confession
Of depression
This life i'm second-guessing
Like ashes
To ashes
I always seem to fall down
I'm tired
Of running
It's time to face my demons
Confession
Of depression
This life I'm second-guessing

Black clouds
They rain down
But they can't kill the sun
Inside

Still looking for signs of light
These black clouds keep following me
I return to my shelter
And I crawl in a bottle

Black clouds
They rain down
But they can't kill the sun

Confession
Of depression
This life i'm second-guessing
Like ashes
To ashes
I always seem to fall down
I'm pushing
Myself to
A point of self destruction
Confession
Of depression
This life I'm second-guessing
I'm tired
Of running
It's time to face my demons
Confession
Of depression
This life I'm second-guessing

Black clouds
They rain down
But they can't kill the sun
Inside

I was scatterbrained
When I found the time to find
That times are evil
Sick and disjointed
My skin is thick
Thick and calloused
I'm ready to shed the shell
Ready to shed the shell

So you think you have figured me out
A young man lost in his problems
Some problems aren't that easy to solve
And you can't break our code of energy

I'm bent out of shape
There is no happy ending
I've come to a point
Where I just don't give a fuck
My skin is thick
Thick and calloused
I'm ready to shed the shell
Ready to shed the shell

The code of energy

Hi
I'm paranoid
Goodbye
I'm in the void
Haunted by insecurity
Bipolar asymmetry

Our new vision of passion and obsession
Is planetary ingestion
There is no time for question.....

Human behavior
Peculiar it seems
Some thrive on hate
Some love the dream
Everyone's got a purpose and wants to be loved
I think I found my purpose
I think I found love

Hidden inside myself

Tragedy
Strikes when you least expect it

Hate and destruction crashed down on our world
The stars and the stripes
The boys and the girls
It's sad it took war just to bring us together
I believe in love
I believe in forever

Hidden inside ourselves

You better run
You better run
For your life
For your life
Shed a tear
Shed a tear
Live in fear

Tragedy day
Tragedy day
Tragedy day

Gouge away
You can gouge away
Stay all day
If you want to

Missy aggravation
Some sacred questions
You stroke my locks
Some marijuana
If you got some

Gouge away
You can gouge away
Stay all day
If you want to

Sleeping on your belly
You break my arms
You spoon my eyes
Been rubbing a bad charm
With holy fingers

Gouge away
You can gouge away
Stay all day
If you want to

Chained to the pillars
A three day party
I break the walls
And kill us all
With holy fingers

Gouge away
You can gouge away
Stay all day
If you want to

Wish I would never have said it
But if only you meant it
And I will tell you the truth cause that's all I know
So pathetic, you can't ignore that he wants you
He sat you down and he taught you
And you obeyed every rule that he made
Cause he bought you, now he owns you
So don't go away, don't go away
I got something to say about the dark side of me
Dead side of me, light side of me
Dark side of me, dead side of me
I lied to you and you caught me
I shoulda learned what you taught me
And the truth cuts just like a knife,
When you cut me
And I'll do all that I told you
I loved it when I would hold you
But those are just things that I said in my head
But she told you, shoulda told you
I said don't go away, don't go away
Got something to say about the dark side of me
Dead side of me, light side of me
Dark side of me, dead side of me
Just let me be, what I want to be
I said I haven't told you anything
I hold it all inside in vain
I think of you and I think of pain
Now I've told you everything
I said don't go away, don't go away
I got something to say about the dark side of me
(I said I haven't told you anything)
Dead side of me
(I hold it all inside in vain)
Light side of me
(I think of you and I think of pain)
Dark side of me
(Now I've told you everything)
Dead side of me
I said I haven't told you anything
I hold it all inside in vain
I think of you and I think of pain
I never tell you anything
I said I haven't told you anything
I hold it all inside in vain
I think of you and I think of pain

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
