when your eyes are wide and your mind is you're paranoid cause you know you've got a problem yeah you're all dressed up cause you got nowhere to go I'm gonna shut you down cause I've had enough so please just wrap it up wrap it up wrap it up wrap it up! you wanna mash it up mash it up mash it up mash it up! If you got beef wit me you better put it on the grill and bring some vegetables and lets have a barbecue! meat and potatoes that's what you're made of!!!!!!!!! Marinate overnight and get your ducks in a row gather evidence but you gotta stick to the facts Don't forget your friends as you crawl your way to the top there's only one way to go and its all coming down

Don't ask me why I cannot look you in the eye Came into town sneaking around Okay I must admit, I'm getting desperate I've been honest to god and I've got nothing for it I was fighting my own war and I paid the cost I was the one who lost :( the sentence coming down now got me fitted for the hang man's noose I wish I learned my lesson let me tell you how bad man lose you're gonna lose you never chose the bad man bloose You might ask how'd I end up like this? or you just might stop, stare and walk away while this might be one moment of many for you while you are passing by I wish I could explain I was fighting my own war and I paid the cost I was the one who lost! They're calling me a bad man So this is the bad man blooze If they're calling me a bad man well let me tell you how bad man lose

I been thinking bout the cost of living and what it means to be trying to get by honestly amongst this den of thieves bad thoughts are taking over I can't help from looking over my shoulder they followed me from the corner what is the cost of living it is the pain beginning I'm trying to get by I'm lying to get by I've got a list of people to kill and you might be on it too yeah we used to be friends but lately where are you been?  find me hanging by the trash cans hanging out with a bad man yeah I live in that den of thieves but it's much better than you would believe! what is the cost of living it is the pain beginning what is the cost of living i lose more than I'm winning I'm crying as you smile I'm crying cause I'm dying

Modern Whirl (free) 04:07
When the going gets rough You're gonna have to get tougher You got the weight of the world Upon your back and I'm headed for a breaking point I'm headed for broken bones when did the table turn In the modern whirl and now we can't go back the only way out is a heart attack :( I turn my back on the homeless I turn my back on the cripples I turn my back on my brother I turn my back on you when did the tables turn say a prayer for the modern whirl don't believe anything you heard in the modern whirl If you go with your gut you get sick to your stomach so look straight ahead and question no one but get ready for the coming revolt cause if you just can't survive the only way out is a suicide

Dark Cave 03:09
in the darkest cave I wait I wait in silence night and day in the darkest cave I wait I wait I wait I wait 10,000 years beneath these rocks I hide away in the troubled spots you can't see me but I see you passing by I wait I wait I cut my hair I still get knots these scissors are not sharp enough I'd give you love if i had a heart I'd kill you dead if i was strong enough

Nephritis 05:01
Monday she had a funny feeling Tuesday she called the doctor she said why won't my nose stop bleeding he said something sounds very wrong it was all wrong wednesday her heart stopped beating for just a moments pause thursday they operated and I sat there waiting all night long the night was long! Can't bring her home to mother Can't take her home to father She's all I ever wanted but nobody else wants to know Friday the priest read last rites Saturday she was comatose Sunday my baby left me Oh god I feel so alone I'm all alone! bells ring out from a distance I hear a wedding call but its not for my baby bells will ring for her funeral I hear them call! Can't bring her home to mother Can't take her home to father I'm planning her funeral because my baby's terminal! lupus, melanoma, pertussis, leukemia, meningitis, nephritis oh baby! oh baby! which is one is it? nobody knows yet!? but my baby she's on her deathbed she's got a disease she's got a disease oh no baby oh please

the cutting edge has slay me dead the killing floor is where i sleep tonight in the lions den how did I end up here again? but this is not the time to change your mind your gang of thugs they beat me down broke my bones stole my crown and now my time to reply knock at your door an eye for an eye In the lions den how did I end up here again?
9.
Come on now take a ride with me where do you wanna go? I'll take you anywhere ride with me through these city streets its late at night and I'm vulnerable talk to me and tell me why I should slow down and save your life If we don't make it out this time I swear we won't survive this ride on my own again alone again on my own again alone again Late at night I toss and turn I know I should have been someone ride with me through the city streets tell you a story see that spot over there that is where they broke me If you wanna see what I see take a ride with me In my death machine If you know the way there'll be hell to pay Come on boy take a ride with me in my death machine you can sit right beside me

Leon 05:30
the pills that you took messed with your brain carved out a hole in your heart for the pain its a drip and a drop and a memory away and my blood runs cold when i think of you that day when i realized that you weren't coming back I lost my only friend just like that Leon, I miss you Leon Leon, I pray for Leon My only friend Hidden truths inside my soul and you know me so well why did you have to leave me oh Leon Well I know I did somethings wrong and I pay for my sins every day told you but you weren't listening Leon beautiful brother of mine….. nobody understands…. sighing….
