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

love love love love loveeeeee!!!!!
the scene is set
the worlds a stage
your heart is racing
you feel ashamed
just when you thought you could fly
there's a change in script
now you sleep with one eye open
watching out for the darkness
in a firefight
please spare my life
i'll give you what you want
and here's the downpayment
if you wanna be free
follow your own lead
you'll see its not that easy
watch out!
Love in the trenches Love in the trenches
I don't know how i got here in the first place
Love in the trenches Love in the trenches
don't wanna die tonight in a firefight!

Bad Man Blooze
03:09
|

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

Cost of Living
02:59
|
|||
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

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

Allegory of the Cave
04:04
|

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?

Death Machine
04:05
|
|||
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….
