Dead Silence

	1. Lonely Road To Absolution Lyrics The sun has born a brand new day Conscience has been cast away Evil has been blessed with praise Heroes end up in their graves So who will be your savior now? They’ve shot your angels to the ground It’s a lonely road to absolution we must walk along It’s a lonely road to absolution we must walk along We can’t take back the days we’ve borrowed No more time to kill tomorrow No more time to kill tomorrow
	2. Viking Death March Lyrics Down, lets take it down Raise up their heads on a stake We will show no mercy on evolution’s mistake Change, will have to wait If we can’t decide on a fate Self-appointed prophets and their doomsday charade You preach about love, teach about faith But all your beliefs are still rooted in hate! Crosses still burn, axes still fall And down on your knees you just don’t look so tall Crosses still burn, axes still fall And down on your knees you just don’t look so tall Stop, punch in the clock Punch it with all of your rage Put the man in office for a minimum wage Rats, fighting for scraps Siphoned the gas from your tank Left your pockets empty, as they laugh to the bank They speak about trust, but make no mistake They’re shaking your hand while they spit in your face! Crosses still burn, axes still fall And down on your knees you just don’t look so tall Crosses still burn, axes still fall And down on your knees you just don’t look so tall Now! the time is now We can still turn it around Raise your voice like a weapon, til’ they fall to the ground Light! Let there be light Without a shadow of doubt We will fight tooth and nail until salvation is found! So how can you look, the world in the eyes? When all we can see is corruption and lies! Down on your knees, you don’t look so tall Down on your knees, you don’t look so tall Cracking the whip on the backs of the poor We asked you to stop but you still wanted more The blood on your hands left a trail as you crawl Down on your knees you just don’t look so tall! Crosses still burn, axes still fall Down on your knees you just don’t look so tall! Crosses still burn, axes still fall Down on your knees you just don’t look so tall! Crosses still burn, axes still fall Down on your knees you just don’t look so tall! Crosses still burn, axes still fall Down on your knees, you don’t look so tall Open your eyes and the empire falls!
	3. Surprise Surprise Lyrics You got the look, but not the credit They wrote the book, on how to sell it From cigarettes, to skinny jeans You got the money? They got the means All you upper class daughters and working class sons It’s hard to save a dollar, the way the world runs You’re the target market of a corporate joke It won’t be so ironic when your daddy is broke! Surprise Surprise!…Surprise Surprise! You’re much better looking when you’re in disguise Surprise Surprise!…Surprise Surprise! And this revolution has been brought to you by… Just find a style, so you can mimic The tortured artist, the jaded cynic The latest gadget, is just a gimmick Another sucker, born every minute Well I’m sick of this town, bringing me down It’s a first world epidemic all around Well I’m sick of this town, bringing me down A lost generation trying to act profound All you upper class daughters and working class sons It’s hard to save a dollar, the way the world runs We got a counterculture you can buy off a shelf If you’re losing your identity, try somebody else! Surprise Surprise! Surprise Surprise! You’re much better looking when you’re in disguise Surprise Surprise! Surprise Surprise! And this revolution has been brought to you by… Those who seem to think we don’t care Those who seem to think we’re not aware Surprise Surprise! Surprise Surprise! You’re much better looking when you’re in disguise All you working class daughters and upper class sons It’s hard to save a dollar, the way the world runs We’re the target market of a corporate hoax our generation is a fucking joke! Surprise Surprise! Surprise Surprise! You’re much better looking when you’re in disguise Surprise Surprise! Surprise Surprise! And this revolution has been brought to you by… Those who seem to think we don’t care Those who seem to think we’re not aware Surprise Surprise! Surprise Surprise! You’re much better looking when you’re in disguise
	4. Runnin’ Across The Tracks Lyrics It’s up to you! This ain’t no TV show You watch my head explode Ten thousand hours every day No time to be afraid Chase out the rattlesnakes Don’t let your fear control your fate The ghost of self-denial It whispers from the grave The road you can’t rely on’s A risk that you must take I’m runnin’ across the tracks, and I’ll never go back I’m runnin’ across the tracks, and I’ll never go back I’m pullin’ the blindfolds back, on a dead end life I’m runnin’ across the tracks, and I’ll never go back I’m runnin’ across the tracks, and I’ll never go back I’m ‘gonna escape this trap, ‘gotta get out alive Stuck in this prison cell Just like a criminal I count the years that went to waste If this road goes to hell I’ll fight back when I fail Made a career from my mistakes The ghost of self-denial It whispers from the grave The road you can’t rely on Could be your saving grace I’m runnin’ across the tracks, and I’ll never go back I’m runnin’ across the tracks, and I’ll never go back I’m pullin’ the blindfolds back, on a dead end life I’m runnin’ across the tracks, and I’ll never go back I’m runnin’ across the tracks, and I’ll never go back I’m ‘gonna escape the trap, ‘gotta get out alive Every step that I aim to take I fall behind, I fall behind Every neck that I had to break These scars are mine, these scars are mine Every day that I pray for you I close my eyes, I close my eyes At least I can say that we made it through The stars aligned, The stars aligned And words just can’t explain the struggle of a dead man’s fight And silver spoons can’t buy the wisdom of a hard earned life Every step that I aim to take I fall behind, I fall behind Every neck that I had to break These scars are mine, these scars are mine Every day that I pray for you I close my eyes, I close my eyes And I hope that you make it through Yeah I hope that you make it through It’s up to you! I’m runnin’ across the tracks, and I’ll never go back I’m runnin’ across the tracks, and I’ll never go back I’m pullin’ the blindfolds back, on a dead end life! I’m runnin’ across the tracks, and I’ll never go back I’m runnin’ across the tracks, and I’ll never go back I’m ‘gonna escape the trap, I gotta put up a fight! Every step that I aim to take I fall behind, I fall behind Every neck that I had to break These scars are mine, these scars are mine Every day that I pray for you I close my eyes, I close my eyes At least I can say that we made it through The stars aligned, The stars aligned The stars aligned!
	5. Love Was Still Around Lyrics Alive! And right before your eyes It’s easy to think twice A choice can change your life Angry fists, angry eyes Thought you’d take them by surprise And unleash all your demons upon them With your guns and your knives Left them fighting to survive You’re the villain but you played the victim Never took no advice Did you ever realize That your violence had taken your virtue Well you can’t wash away the mistakes of yesterday When the boys wearing blue come to greet you And I can hear the sirens still calling your name And I can see the ashes rise up from the flames When love was still around When love was still around One day before it all came crashing down Did you stop and regret? When the voice inside your head Got so quiet that you’d hear a pin drop Did you still like the view When their guns were aimed at you? Screaming “Out of the house with your hands up!” Now you wait in the line For the prison bell to chime Singing “I fought the law but the law won” When you’re done serving time You can look them in the eyes While you count all the lives that you’ve broken And I can hear the sirens still calling your name And I can see the ashes rise up from the flames When love was still around When love was still around One day before it all came crashing down And I can see the flashing lights take you away And now the tears are rolling down your mother’s face When love was still around When love was still around One day before it all came crashing down When love was still around When love was still around One day before it all came crashing down When love was still around When love was still around Some day you’ll see the life that you turned down Alive! And right before your eyes It’s easy to think twice A choice can change your life
	6. Stand Up And Run Lyrics I had a feeling Buried inside Covered beneath a Blanket of pride I couldn’t tell you What my heart felt inside In so little time Stand up and run, Stand up and run, Stand up and run, Stand up and run, Into my Arms Chasing the bright lights This city got old You walked out of my life And into the cold It’s hard to imagine, That you’d never come home Forever Alone Stand up and run, Stand up and run, Stand up and run, Stand up and run, Into my Arms Stand up and run, Stand up and run, Stand up and run, Stand up and run, Into my Heart Can’t you see there is no love logic to love, And we’re lost just like the stars up above, If I’d only known how you’d make me feel I would kiss the ground that touches your heel After all these years of being apart Don’t let reason try to tear us apart If the compass breaks then follow your heart And I hope it leads you right back into my arms And though time has passed, we’ll still make it last And I hope this leads you right back into my arms I had a feeling Buried inside
	7. Crooked Minds Lyrics Crooked minds have gone astray Have they never learned from yesterday Only a fool would wear the crown One day the kids will tear it down Can’t you see the clocks are ticking away They try to fit more hours into the day The CPU is crunching numbers away We’re running out of breath just to keep up the pace And when did the revolver start the race? When did the revolver start the race? Accelerated architecture creates A manufactured lifestyle for the deranged They swallow up the green and build up the grey And let tomorrow’s kids dispose of today And when do you think the roof will bottom out? When do you think the roof will bottom out? Crooked minds under grey skies They can’t live ’til something dies! The kids will tear it down! The kids will tear it down! Crooked Minds ain’t satisfied ‘Til the ground touches the sky, touches the sky! The kids will tear in down! The kids will tear it down! Cemetery statues stare into space Sucked into a social media craze They’re looking for an answer to explain The reason why disaster strikes again Picture perfect family sits at the lake Swimming in a sea of mechanical waste Why can’t they see a tragedy awaits? Can’t they see a tragedy awaits? Crooked minds under grey skies They can’t live ’til something dies! The kids will tear it down! The kids will tear it down! Crooked minds ain’t satisfied ‘Til the ground touches the sky, touches the sky! The kids will tear in down! The kids will tear it down! We’ll tear it down! Cauterize these bloodshot eyes Tangled in their power lines Tear the ground up with their knives Raise the caskets in the sky Some day soon we’ll realize Nothing’s left for you and I Nothing’s left for you and I Crooked minds have gone astray Have they never learned from yesterday Only a fool would wear the crown One day the kids will tear it down Crooked minds under grey skies They can’t live ’til something dies! The kids will tear it down! The kids will tear it down! Crooked Minds ain’t satisfied ‘Til the ground touches the sky, touches the sky! The kids will tear in down! The kids will tear it down! Cauterize these bloodshot eyes Tangled in their power lines Tear the ground up with their knives Raise the caskets in the sky Some day soon we’ll realize Nothing lives ’til something dies! ’til something dies! ’til something dies!
	8. Man Alive! Lyrics Man Alive! Don’t stand aside! While people make demands At first they’ll take your liberties then tie them ’round your hands Man Alive! Don’t stand aside! While people make demands When time goes by some day you’ll find their words are your command Well the bloodsucker society, is looking for recruits I took a sip of their sobriety, it doesn’t taste that good Well At first you’re fine with working overtime 10 years go by til you’re caught up the grind And can’t escape the fact your youth is fading fast These times won’t last and once they’re gone they don’t come back Man Alive! Don’t stand aside! While people make demands At first they’ll take your liberties then tie them ’round your hands Man Alive! Don’t stand aside! While people make demands When time goes by some day you’ll find their words are your command They try to fill you with anxiety, until you bite the hook They drop a line of notoriety, and flash a big chequebook Oh they’ll turn you blind for a nickel and a dime Don’t waste your time with their simple frame of mind You can’t escape the fact your youth is fading fast These times don’t last and once they’re gone they don’t come back. Man Alive! Don’t stand aside! While people make demands At first they’ll take your liberties then tie them ’round your hands Man Alive! Don’t stand aside! While people make demands Once time goes by some day you’ll find their words are your command Attention all personnel! Stand single file, resistance is futile! We’re gonna raise your hopes up Just to knock them down You got a bright bright future If you can shut your mouth And if you work the front lines To keep us safe and sound You won’t be compensated Until you’re in the ground Don’t waste a single breath For what society expects If history don’t lie They’re gonna take you for a ride until you die! Man Alive! Don’t stand aside! While people make demands At first they’ll take your liberties then tie them ’round your hands Man Alive! Don’t stand aside! While people make demands When time goes by some day you’ll find their words are your command
	9. Hanging By A Thread Lyrics Hello, hello, hello my darling, have we reached the end? Cause when the stitches fall apart we’re hanging by thread Hello, hello, hello my darling, some things never change When our words are dipped in gasoline, our love goes up in flames I tried so hard to get behind your mental barricade But every time it leaves me feeling damaged, torn, and frayed Hanging by a thread Hanging by a thread When you break my heart, I fall apart ’til you stitch me up again I’m tired of all the drama that unravels in your head Well, It’s easy to get tangled up when your world is torn to shreds And every time you spit at me, some day you will regret An ounce of insecurity is worth a pound of lead Hanging by a thread Hanging by a thread When you break my heart, I fall apart ’til you stitch me up again Hanging by a thread Hanging by a thread C’mon patch me up, or cut me loose, cause these rags are turning red C’mon patch me up, or cut me loose, cause I’m hanging by a thread Hello, hello, hello my darling, have we reached the end? Cause when the stitches fall apart we’re hanging by thread For all the times we’ve hurt eachother, with all the things we’ve said Well, it’s hard to hold this olive branch with a gun against my head Hanging by a thread Hanging by a thread When you break my heart, I fall apart ’til you stitch me up again Hanging by a thread Hanging by a thread C’mon patch me up or cut me loose, cause these rags are turning red C’mon patch me up or cut me loose, cause I’m hanging by a thread
	10. Cure For The Enemy Lyrics Time Drifts through the sky Without a reason why We walk past the flowers Don’t stop for a breath Until they’re above our heads We used to fight Have we made amends? Father I just can’t tell Watching you spend The time you have left Trapped in a cold blue bed In darkness we’ll rest Count the days down to one last breath In darkness we’ll rest So forgive what you can’t forget We said That we would call But we never spoke at all The years drfited by We built up these walls For reasons that seem so small If this is the end Let’s bury the past This might be our one last chance Together until The last grain of sand Has dropped from the hourglass (So open your Eyes) Open your eyes, and don’t forget to breathe (If we lose the fight) If we lose the fight, your spirit will live through me (It’s time we make right) It’s time we make right the pages of history (Until we find) Until we find a cure for the enemy All those you’ve loved All those who’ve died All we have left is what lives in our mind All those you’ve loved All those who’ve died I know their spirits are up in the sky (So open your Eyes) Open your eyes, and don’t forget to breathe (If we lose the fight) If we lose the fight, your spirit will live through me (It’s time we make right) It’s time we make right the pages of history (Until we find) Until we find a cure for the enemy And in darkness we’ll rest Count the days down to one last breath And in darkness we’ll rest So forgive what you can’t forget All those you’ve loved All those who’ve died All we have left is what lives in our mind All those you’ve loved All those who’ve died I know their spirits are up in the sky
	11. Don’t Count On The Wicked Lyrics This heart don’t count on the wicked These hands don’t fight at all This mind don’t do what it’s told to These eyes don’t cry at all, Don’t cry at all, hey-oh…hey-oh… These eyes don’t cry at all, hey-oh…hey-oh… This heart don’t count on the wicked We face this world alone When all they want is to break you Turn anger into hope Within this city of villains I walk these streets alone When everyone is a stranger Their eyes turn me to stone Turn me to stone, hey-oh…hey-oh… Your eyes turn me to stone, hey-oh…hey-oh… This heart don’t count on the wicked We face this world alone When all they want is to break you This anger into hope I’m telling you, tonight I swear to tear out these nails, From the cross I’ve bared for giving you control of me, This heart don’t count on the wicked This anger turns to hope, it turns to hope Calling from the mountain tops Rain is falling from the sky above They surround you with their darkest thoughts ‘Til you drown you in pessimistic talk You say you don’t care, if the atom drops You say you don’t care, if the world is lost They’ll never break you, if you’re strong enough They’ll never change you, If you turn your anger into hope! This heart don’t count on the wicked We face this world alone When all they want is to break you Turn anger into hope I’m telling you, tonight I swear to tear out these nails, From the cross I’ve beared for giving you control of me, This heart don’t count on the wicked This anger turns to hope, we turn it to hope We turn it to hope (4) Anger turns to hope! We turn it to hope (4) Anger turns to hope!
	12. Show Me The Way Lyrics Put me on an aeroplane A million miles away She’s opened up her book of hate And tore a brand new page Tonight I’ll find a wishing well, tomorrow’s a new day Tonight I’ll find a wishing well, before it’s too late… Show me the way, show me the way! Why do my dreams keep slipping away? Show me the way, show me the way! Spent a whole lifetime running away She questioned my ability To learn from my mistakes I said she’d need a guillotine To put me in my place Tonight I’ll write my eulogy, before I fade away Tonight I’ll write my eulogy, so don’t be afraid… Show me the way! Show me the way! Why do my dreams keep slipping away? Show me the way! Show me the way! Spent a whole lifetime running away And every time I close my eyes, I’ve lost another day Show me the way! Show me the way! Why do my dreams keep slipping away? The waves came crashing, down so fast That when the storm was over, the sky turned black And now I pray for sunshine! I pray for sunshine! I pray you’ll help me to escape! Show me the way, show me the way! Why do my dreams keep slipping away? Show me the way, show me the way! Spent a whole lifetime running away And every time I close my eyes I’ve lost another day Show me the way, show me the way! Why do my dreams keep slipping away? And every time we close our eyes we’ve lost another day And every time we close my eyes, dreams will have to wait
	13. Swallowed Up By The Ocean Lyrics We spent a life together That should have last forever But now it’s time to sail on So take this anchor from my heart So we can finally drift apart Before we drown in sorrow I gave you sanctuary Under the sun we lived carefree I tried so hard to love you But then you turned your back on me Your good intentions turned to greed And now it’s good to know that you have been… Swallowed Up By the Ocean Swallowed Up By the Ocean Swallowed Up By the Ocean Swallowed Up The bluest skies turned into grey Through tortured eyes I watched you change Our paradise went up in flames And though I cried a thousand times You didn’t hear the rising tide There’s nowhere left to hide since you have been… Swallowed Up By the Ocean Swallowed Up By the Ocean Swallowed Up By the Ocean Swallowed Up Your devastation took its toll As the waves came crashing to the coast This sinking ship I’m taking back from your control It felt so good to cross my arms And renounce my faith in mankind How could you ever be so blind To think that you’d survive? Swallowed Up By the Ocean Swallowed Up By the Ocean I hope you know that nothing matters now that you have been… Swallowed Up By the Ocean Swallowed Up By the Ocean I hope you know this ship has finally come to rest I hope you know this ship has finally come to rest I hope you know some day this ship will be your end
	14. Dead Silence Lyrics Living underneath the land of sorrow I can hear the bombs reign down And how do I explain there’s no tomorrow I can hardly make a sound Dead Silence! A fate we can’t escape ’til death do us part in the end They’re marching up the main street, as my heart beats Louder than machine gun fire The sound of all the sirens, sing like violins Rattling the cold barbwire I heard the soldiers say, ‘Don’t let him get away!’ But I could not escape their bullets and grenades A casualty of war? a victim of mistake? Another widow has been made Dead silence, will come to rescue me When violence, has took this world away Dead silence, a fate we can’t escape ’til death do us part in the end Dead silence, will come to rescue me When violence, has took this world away Dead Silence, no time to be afraid My love I will see you again Fly away like the wind, some things God can’t forgive Why is war justified, while the innocent die? They can tear us apart, I’ll still live in your heart If your spirit gives up, don’t surrender your love And the world will survive, if we stand side by side One day hope will arrive, but now I must say goodbye Dead silence, will come to rescue me When violence, has took this world away Dead silence, a fate we can’t escape ’til death do us part in the end Dead silence, will come to rescue me When violence, has took this world away Dead Silence, no time to be afraid My love I will see you again

Saint Veronika EP

	1. Saint Veronika Lyrics They found an empty bottle on her windowsill The day her mother lost her sleeping pills She was sick and tired of being invisible Hard to see in color when you’re miserable Veronika, Saint Veronika You can’t leave this world behind So be strong enough to hold onto us We’re still right here by your side No one ever thought that she was capable And the damage done is irreversible Now she clings to life inside a hospital Like she’s trapped inside a frozen waterfall Always said her life was never meant to be Stuck here living someone else’s dream Well beyond your window there is so much more Even every prison has a open door Veronika, Saint Veronika You can’t leave this world behind So be strong enough to hold onto us It’s just not your time to die And while the angels sleep All of the devils are awake Waiting to steal your love Right outside of Heaven’s gate And all the sacred hearts Can’t numb the feeling from the pain Cause when the drugs don’t work You’re gonna curse His holy name Damn God, yeah, God, yeah Damn God, yeah, God, yeah Veronika, Saint Veronika You can’t leave this world behind Oh Veronika, Saint Veronika We’re still right here by your side So be strong enough to hold onto us You can’t leave this world behind Oh Veronika, Saint Veronika It’s just not your time to die
	2. Line & Sinker (Live At The Horseshoe) Lyrics What you see is what you get! Fishing for the answers with a line and sinker Look at me and don’t forget! Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers Today I don’t feel pretty, and I’m tired of trying to fit right in, don’t think that your so great, cause being great must suck! We don’t always see the bright side, we all need ego suicide, you hung my ID today, but I have licked my wounds and carried on Everybody needs some sympathy Santa seemed to miss my chimney Reality is truly scaring me So stand up straight and firmly say… What you see is what you get! Fishing for the answers with a line and sinker Look at me and don’t forget! Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers My heart is in the right place, so wipe that smirk right off your face, don’t make me feel like that, cause that’s just plain not nice! We don’t always see the bright side, and I lied when I said I was fine, you slapped my face today but, I have licked my wounds and carried on Everybody needs some sympathy Santa seemed to miss my chimney Reality is truly scaring me So stand up straight and firmly say… What you see is what you get! Fishing for the answers with a line and sinker Look at me and don’t forget! Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers Everybody needs some sympathy Santa seemed to miss my chimney You stole my luck from me, and now my fortune cookie’s empty! What you see is what you get! Fishing for the answers with a line and sinker Look at me and don’t forget! Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers

Prisoners Of Today (iTunes Session) Lyrics I never bite off more than I can chew but then she came and bit me, I never bite off more than I can chew but then she bit my leg, She said “don’t wanna work I wanna play and live my life like it was Sunday!” “The only problem is that Sunday only comes now once a week and I’m a freak but…” We’re breaking up the city, no time for wasting away, so tell me why should we stay, prisoners of today! My body is tired my souls excited and I wish that I was gifted, My body is tired my souls excited and I wish I had some spunk, She said ” I wanna run, I wanna hide, and leave this place just like it left me” “The only problem is I need to find the balls to follow through and that’s the truth now…” We’re breaking up the city, no time for wasting away, so tell me why should we stay, prisoners of today! When there’s no time for one another? Cause this is our time and our place… History I can’t erase!

So if ya see me will ya just drive on by Or will I catch the twinkle inside your eye? And if ya want me, well, I guess I want you Oh pretty baby how could you!

Standing in the rain… Milk carton mug shot baby, mother I have lost my way

Rusted From The Rain EP

	Rusted From The Rain Lyrics I stumble through the wreckage, rusted from the rain There’s nothing left to salvage, no-one left to blame Among the broken mirrors, I don’t look the same I’m rusted from the rain, I’m rusted from the rain Dissect me ’til my blood runs down into the drain My bitter heart is pumping oil into my veins I’m nothing but a tin man, I don’t feel any pain I don’t feel any pain, I’m rusted from the rain Go on…crush me like a flower, rusted from the rain Go on…strip me of my powers, beat me with your chains And if…I’m the King of cowards, you’re the Queen of pain I’m rusted from the rain, I’m rusted from the rain You hung me like a picture, now I’m just a frame I used to be a lap dog, now I’m just a stray Shackled in a graveyard, left here to decay Left here to decay, I’m rusted from the rain Go on…crush me like a flower, rusted from the rain Go on…strip me of my powers, beat me with your chains And if…I’m the King of cowards, you’re the Queen of pain I’m rusted from the rain, I’m rusted from the rain [Thanks to Kat B. for these lyrics]
	Cold Turkey Lyrics Temperatures rising Fever is high Can’t see no future Can’t see no sky My feet are so heavy So is my head I wish I was a baby I wish I was dead Cold turkey has got me on the run My body is aching Goose-pimple bone Can’t see no body Leave me alone My eyes are wide open Can’t get to sleep One thing Im sure of I’m in at the deep freeze Cold turkey has got me on the run Cold turkey has got me on the run 36 hours Rolling in pain Praying to someone Free me again Oh I’ll be a good boy Please make me well I promise you anything Get me out of this hell Cold turkey has got me on the run Cold turkey has got me on the run Cold turkey has got me on the run

	4. Tears Into Wine Lyrics The gun is loaded when the glass is full Down the hatch and the trigger’s pulled Off the wagon and back onto the stool I know that when I stare into your eyes I can see all the years of lies Ghosts and demons you never exorcised All the friends that I’ve ever known Are the streetlamps I follow home And I’m in the crowd but I’m all alone Oh Lord, I just can’t Tear the moon from the stars tonight Twist my arm like a knife tonight And if you wanna leave that’s alright Well I’ll just turn these tears into wine His fate was written on a neon sign A DUI never changed his mind He got hooked like a fish caught on a line You never gave yourself a chance to shine Your destination’s a chalk outline And when you get to the gates you’ll be denied All the friends that I’ve ever known Are the streetlamps I follow home And I’m in the crowd but I’m all alone Oh Lord, I just can’t Tear the moon from the stars tonight Twist my arm like a knife tonight And if you wanna leave that’s alright Well I’ll just turn these tears into wine Tear the moon from the stars tonight Twist my arm like a knife tonight And if you wanna leave that’s alright Well I’ll just turn these tears into wine All the friends that I’ve ever known Are the streetlamps I follow home The tide keeps pulling me down I try to reach higher ground I’ll never give up and drown Even though I just can’t Tear the moon from the stars tonight Twist my arm like a knife tonight And if you wanna leave that’s alright Well I’ll just turn these tears into wine Tear the moon from the stars tonight Twist my arm like a knife tonight And if you wanna leave that’s alright Well I’ll just turn these tears into wine Tears into wine Tears into wine Well, I’ll just turn these tears into wine
	5. White Sparrows Lyrics Today I walked down our old street Past the diner where we’d meet Now I dine alone in our old seats The cold wind blows right through my bones And I feel like I’m getting old But I wish I was getting old with you I held your hand when we took shelter from the rain She laughed as we picked out our children’s names White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away Black arrows cut the strings of my heart, I kneel and pray Her clothes hang in the closet still The phone sits on the windowsill And every time it rings it gives me chills My heart just stopped when I was told Doctor, doctor, on the phone Said my love was never coming home I hold your casket gently walking to the grave Dark clouds eclipse the sun won’t shine again White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away Black arrows cut the strings of my heart, I kneel and pray They gave her one more day To say the words I couldn’t say I’m crying in pain, crying in pain And I’m not looking for answers No, I’m not looking for answers But dear God, why did you choose her? White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away Black arrows cut the strings of my heart, I kneel and pray They gave her one more day To say the words I couldn’t say I’m crying in pain (crying in pain) Crying in pain Our love will remain I’m crying in pain
	6. Pocketful Of Dreams Lyrics Vanities are only charity And she makes donations at the Tiffany’s, Life is hard without a credit card to get by, get by She sold her dreams for security To a man that now she hardly ever sees With a cold martini in her hand, she don’t mind, don’t mind So throw all your luxuries aside You can’t take them with you when you die Still when I look into your Eyes are full of dollar signs Oh, reach, into a pocketful of dreams Oh, now, before they fall out of the seams Oh, take a chance, don’t matter if you fail you’re too scared to try cause you might break a nail, oh If you design a plastic happiness, Then climb the social ladder to the top my friend, And don’t forget to thank the piggy bank in the sky, so high So throw all your luxuries aside You can’t take them with you when you die Still when I look into your Eyes are full of dollar signs, Oh, reach, into a pocketful of dreams Oh, now, before they fall out of the seams Oh, take a chance, don’t matter if you fail you’re too scared to try cause you might break a nail Oh, reach, into a pocketful of dreams Oh, now, before they fall out of the seams Oh, take a chance, don’t matter if you fail you’re too scared to try cause you might break a nail, oh Woah-oh-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh-oh Oh, reach, into a pocketful of dreams Oh, now, before they fall out of the seams Oh, take a chance, don’t matter if you fail you’re too scared to try cause you might break a nail Oh, reach, into a pocketful of dreams Oh, now, before they fall out of the seams Oh, take a chance, don’t matter if you fail you’re too scared to try cause you might break a nail Oh, reach, into a pocketful of dreams Oh, now, before they fall out of the seams Oh, take a chance, don’t matter if you fail you’re too scared to try cause you might break a nail Oh, reach, into a pocketful of dreams Oh, now, before they fall out of the seams Oh, take a chance, don’t matter if you fail you’re too scared to try cause you might break a nail, oh
	7. The Dead Can’t Testify Lyrics Let the rain fall down, let it fall to the ground, Let the rain fall down to the ground. And the birds don’t sing, no they don’t make a sound, When you’re six feet underground. Well they cast me out when the word spread around That I never sang in the church. And it took one night for the town to decide I’m afflicted by the curse. And the rain falls down, let it fall to the ground. And the birds don’t sing, no they don’t make a sound. So I look to the sky, tell me why, tell me why, Do they all get to live, and I have to die? So they marched me down to the center of town, With their pitchforks high in the air. I was chained and bound with a blindfold around So the judge wouldn’t catch my stare. And they hung my soul from the gallows pole But the witch they never found. So to those who don’t fit society’s mold, Learn to swim or you will drown. And the rain falls down, let it fall to the ground. And the birds don’t sing, no they don’t make a sound. So I look to the sky, tell me why, tell me why, Do they all get to live, and I have to die? And the angels sing: let it shine, let it shine, Dry the teardrops from my eyes. And the bells will ring when the blind lead the blind, ‘Cause the dead can’t testify. And because I can’t take an eye for an eye, In the afterlife I’ll haunt you ’till you die! And the rain falls down, let it fall to the ground (Let teardrops hit the ground!) And the birds don’t sing, no they don’t make a sound (When you’re six feet underground!) So I look to the sky, tell me why, tell me why, Do they all get to live, and I have to die? And the angels sing: let it shine, let it shine, Dry the teardrops from my eyes. And the bells will ring when the blind lead the blind, ‘Cause the dead can’t testify. And because I can’t take an eye for an eye, In the afterlife I’ll haunt you ’till you die! And the angels sing: let it shine, let it shine, Dry the teardrops from my eyes. And the bells will ring when the blind lead the blind, ‘Cause the dead can’t testify. And because I can’t take an eye for an eye, In the afterlife I’ll haunt you ’till you die!
	8. Diamond On A Landmine Lyrics Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh Woah-oh-oh Slapped my face, slammed the door A dozen roses lay on the floor I saw her friends and I was told She blocked my number from her cell phone You said we were meant to be Now this obsession is killing me Until I have a heart attack I’ll keep on trying to win you back Alone at last, I can’t wait till we’re alone at last All i wanted was a second chance, second chance To hold you in my arms at last Forever, forever I’ll walk a thousand miles Just to tell her, to tell her Our love is still alive And I’ll never, I’ll never I’ll never let it die Well you’d better watch your step She’s a diamond on a landmine I’m not so sure about this word But she kept calling me insecure I tried to quit but there’s no use Cause I’m addicted to her abuse She’s in control of everything I’m just a puppet, she pulls my strings Denying truth, I’ll test my fate And keep on playing this wicked game Alone at last, I can’t wait till we’re alone at last All i wanted was a second chance, second chance To hold you in my arms at last Forever, forever I’ll walk a thousand miles Just to tell her, to tell her Our love is still alive And I’ll never, I’ll never I’ll never let it die Well you’d better watch your step She’s a diamond on a landmine Better watch your step She’s a diamond on a landmine Better watch your step She’s a diamond on a landmine Waiting to explode We’re dancing on thin ice before Frozen from the winter’s cold And if it were to crack below I’d never let you go Alone at last, I can’t wait till we’re alone at last All i wanted was a second chance, second chance To hold you in my arms at last Forever, forever I’ll walk a thousand miles Just to tell her, to tell her Our love is still alive And I’ll never, I’ll never I’ll never let it die Well you’d better watch your step She’s a diamond on a landmine Better watch your step She’s a diamond on a landmine Better watch your step She’s a diamond on a landmine Waiting to explode Better watch your step She’s a diamond on a landmine Better watch your step She’s a diamond on a landmine Better not touch She’s a diamond on a landmine Better to forget She’s a diamond on a landmine Waiting to explode
	9. Turn Your Back Lyrics And when the clock strikes 12, tell me where you gonna be? Cleaning up the mess we’ve made or watching your TV? And if you have to ask, then you don’t have a clue, There’s snow in Arizona while they’re bombing in Beirut! I hope some day…when i’m dead and gone, We learn to right…everything that’s wrong, With loving hands…turn sick to strong, Our time will tell…if life goes on, on, on, on, on When the storm hits your front door, with a roar you can’t ignore, You run, run, away! but there’s no place to hide, mate! When the days turn into night, you don’t got no chance to fight, ‘Cause you’re too late! so kiss your ass goodbye, mate! It just don’t make no sense, there’s a million mouthes to feed, We got military action over monetary need And you can turn your back, or you can plant the seed You can choose compassion over universal greed I hope some day… when i’m dead and gone, We learn to right… everything that’s wrong, With loving hands… turn sick to strong, Our time will tell… if life goes on, on, on, on, on When the storm hits your front door, with a roar you can’t ignore, You run, run, away! but there’s no place to hide, mate! When the days turn into night, you don’t got no chance to fight, ‘Cause you’re too late! so kiss your ass goodbye, mate! And you can turn your back, but it won’t go away And you don’t look scared, but you should be afraid You can shut your mouth, but you still have a say And you just don’t care, for tomorrow, today And you can turn your back, but it won’t go away And you don’t look scared, but you should be afraid You can shut your mouth, but you still have a say And you just don’t care, for tomorrow, today Well no way! way! No way, no way, no way, no way! When the storm hits your front door, with a roar you can’t ignore, You run, run, away! but there’s no place to hide, mate! When the days turn into night, you don’t got no chance to fight, ‘Cause you’re too late! so kiss your ass goodbye, mate! [Thanks to Kat B. for these lyrics]
	10. Sudden Movements Lyrics Well I’m scared of my reflection Is it mine or is it yours? And I swear I hear the knockin’ But there’s no one at the door. Don’t think I’m losing my perspective ‘Cause I know one thing for sure They’ve been watching, they’ve been listening Every whisper, every word Your sudden movements, sudden movements Gonna give a soul away No sudden movements, sudden movements Or they’ll blow our soul away Dare I find my information Who’s the black sheep of the herd?

	11. Definition Of Destiny Lyrics Won’t you stop, take a breath Find a moment to reflect On the pure and simple choices that we fail to see From the worst to the best From the east coast to the west On a never-ending quest to end our misery So cut to the chase, it’s time to escape Before it’s too late Yeah pick up the pace, catch up with fate It’s slipping away So get off my road, no I won’t be told ‘Cause I got my own (definition of destiny) Yeah take back control, and don’t let it go, The future’s unknown (definition of destiny) (definition of destiny) Punch the clock to a own While our lives are put on hold When did all our childhood dreams begin to disappear? Well a long time ago We had passion, we had goals Why is life so set in stone it doesn’t have to be?

	12. Bloody Nails And Broken Hearts (Digital Pre-order Bonus Track) Lyrics Lay down, lay down with your drunken fools, I never thought you could be so cruel. And all the rumours I heard were true, You had another man in the room. Peel off the banner just from the wound, I still have plenty of scars to prove. I’m sick of coverin’ up the truth, So now I’m takin’ it back from you. From the start, drew a target on my heart, So you can throw your poison darts. You’ll never kill, never kill. You left a trail right from the start, Of bloody nails and broken hearts. And you keep tearin’ them apart, With bloody nails and broken hearts. Yeah! Now I know fairy tales don’t come true, And Cinderella don’t fit the shoe. Some day I’ll get back the love I gave, Some day you’ll pay for the mess you’ve made. From the start, drew a target on my heart, So you can throw your poison darts. You’ll never kill, never kill, never kill. You left a trail right from the start, Of bloody nails and broken hearts. And you keep tearin’ them apart, With bloody nails and broken hearts. You left a trail right from the start, Of bloody nails and broken hearts. And I bet you thought I’d miss your bitter kiss. Your bitter kiss, your bitter kiss, I’ll never miss your bitter kiss. Your bitter kiss, your bitter kiss, I’ll never miss your bitter kiss. So now I’m takin’ it back from you, (So now I’m takin’ it back from you) Yeah now I’m takin’ it back from you. You left a trail right from the start, Of bloody nails and broken hearts. And you keep tearin’ them apart, With bloody nails and broken hearts. You left a trail right from the start, Of bloody nails and broken hearts. And I bet you thought I’d miss your bitter kiss. Your bitter kiss, your bitter kiss

White Sparrows Lyrics Today I walked down our old street Past the diner where we’d meet Now I dine alone in our old seats The cold wind blows right through my bones And I feel like I’m getting old But I wish I was getting old with you I held your hand when we took shelter from the rain She laughed as we picked out our children’s names White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away Black arrows cut the strings of my heart, I kneel and pray Her clothes hang in the closet still The phone sits on the windowsill And every time it rings it gives me chills My heart just stopped when I was told Doctor, doctor, on the phone Said my love was never coming home I hold your casket gently walking to the grave Dark clouds eclipse the sun won’t shine again White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away Black arrows cut the strings of my heart, I kneel and pray They gave her one more day To say the words I couldn’t say I’m crying in pain, crying in pain And I’m not looking for answers No, I’m not looking for answers But dear God, why did you choose her? White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away Black arrows cut the strings of my heart, I kneel and pray They gave her one more day To say the words I couldn’t say I’m crying in pain (crying in pain) Crying in pain Our love will remain I’m crying in pain
	6. Pocketful Of Dreams Lyrics Vanities are only charity And she makes donations at the Tiffany’s, Life is hard without a credit card to get by, get by She sold her dreams for security To a man that now she hardly ever sees With a cold martini in her hand, she don’t mind, don’t mind So throw all your luxuries aside You can’t take them with you when you die Still when I look into your Eyes are full of dollar signs Oh, reach, into a pocketful of dreams Oh, now, before they fall out of the seams Oh, take a chance, don’t matter if you fail you’re too scared to try cause you might break a nail, oh If you design a plastic happiness, Then climb the social ladder to the top my friend, And don’t forget to thank the piggy bank in the sky, so high So throw all your luxuries aside You can’t take them with you when you die Still when I look into your Eyes are full of dollar signs, Oh, reach, into a pocketful of dreams Oh, now, before they fall out of the seams Oh, take a chance, don’t matter if you fail you’re too scared to try cause you might break a nail Oh, reach, into a pocketful of dreams Oh, now, before they fall out of the seams Oh, take a chance, don’t matter if you fail you’re too scared to try cause you might break a nail, oh Woah-oh-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh-oh Oh, reach, into a pocketful of dreams Oh, now, before they fall out of the seams Oh, take a chance, don’t matter if you fail you’re too scared to try cause you might break a nail Oh, reach, into a pocketful of dreams Oh, now, before they fall out of the seams Oh, take a chance, don’t matter if you fail you’re too scared to try cause you might break a nail Oh, reach, into a pocketful of dreams Oh, now, before they fall out of the seams Oh, take a chance, don’t matter if you fail you’re too scared to try cause you might break a nail Oh, reach, into a pocketful of dreams Oh, now, before they fall out of the seams Oh, take a chance, don’t matter if you fail you’re too scared to try cause you might break a nail, oh
	7. The Dead Can’t Testify Lyrics Let the rain fall down, let it fall to the ground, Let the rain fall down to the ground. And the birds don’t sing, no they don’t make a sound, When you’re six feet underground. Well they cast me out when the word spread around That I never sang in the church. And it took one night for the town to decide I’m afflicted by the curse. And the rain falls down, let it fall to the ground. And the birds don’t sing, no they don’t make a sound. So I look to the sky, tell me why, tell me why, Do they all get to live, and I have to die? So they marched me down to the center of town, With their pitchforks high in the air. I was chained and bound with a blindfold around So the judge wouldn’t catch my stare. And they hung my soul from the gallows pole But the witch they never found. So to those who don’t fit society’s mold, Learn to swim or you will drown. And the rain falls down, let it fall to the ground. And the birds don’t sing, no they don’t make a sound. So I look to the sky, tell me why, tell me why, Do they all get to live, and I have to die? And the angels sing: let it shine, let it shine, Dry the teardrops from my eyes. And the bells will ring when the blind lead the blind, ‘Cause the dead can’t testify. And because I can’t take an eye for an eye, In the afterlife I’ll haunt you ’till you die! And the rain falls down, let it fall to the ground (Let teardrops hit the ground!) And the birds don’t sing, no they don’t make a sound (When you’re six feet underground!) So I look to the sky, tell me why, tell me why, Do they all get to live, and I have to die? And the angels sing: let it shine, let it shine, Dry the teardrops from my eyes. And the bells will ring when the blind lead the blind, ‘Cause the dead can’t testify. And because I can’t take an eye for an eye, In the afterlife I’ll haunt you ’till you die! And the angels sing: let it shine, let it shine, Dry the teardrops from my eyes. And the bells will ring when the blind lead the blind, ‘Cause the dead can’t testify. And because I can’t take an eye for an eye, In the afterlife I’ll haunt you ’till you die!
	8. Diamond On A Landmine Lyrics Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh Woah-oh-oh Slapped my face, slammed the door A dozen roses lay on the floor I saw her friends and I was told She blocked my number from her cell phone You said we were meant to be Now this obsession is killing me Until I have a heart attack I’ll keep on trying to win you back Alone at last, I can’t wait till we’re alone at last All i wanted was a second chance, second chance To hold you in my arms at last Forever, forever I’ll walk a thousand miles Just to tell her, to tell her Our love is still alive And I’ll never, I’ll never I’ll never let it die Well you’d better watch your step She’s a diamond on a landmine I’m not so sure about this word But she kept calling me insecure I tried to quit but there’s no use Cause I’m addicted to her abuse She’s in control of everything I’m just a puppet, she pulls my strings Denying truth, I’ll test my fate And keep on playing this wicked game Alone at last, I can’t wait till we’re alone at last All i wanted was a second chance, second chance To hold you in my arms at last Forever, forever I’ll walk a thousand miles Just to tell her, to tell her Our love is still alive And I’ll never, I’ll never I’ll never let it die Well you’d better watch your step She’s a diamond on a landmine Better watch your step She’s a diamond on a landmine Better watch your step She’s a diamond on a landmine Waiting to explode We’re dancing on thin ice before Frozen from the winter’s cold And if it were to crack below I’d never let you go Alone at last, I can’t wait till we’re alone at last All i wanted was a second chance, second chance To hold you in my arms at last Forever, forever I’ll walk a thousand miles Just to tell her, to tell her Our love is still alive And I’ll never, I’ll never I’ll never let it die Well you’d better watch your step She’s a diamond on a landmine Better watch your step She’s a diamond on a landmine Better watch your step She’s a diamond on a landmine Waiting to explode Better watch your step She’s a diamond on a landmine Better watch your step She’s a diamond on a landmine Better not touch She’s a diamond on a landmine Better to forget She’s a diamond on a landmine Waiting to explode
	9. Turn Your Back Lyrics And when the clock strikes 12, tell me where you gonna be? Cleaning up the mess we’ve made or watching your TV? And if you have to ask, then you don’t have a clue, There’s snow in Arizona while they’re bombing in Beirut! I hope some day…when i’m dead and gone, We learn to right…everything that’s wrong, With loving hands…turn sick to strong, Our time will tell…if life goes on, on, on, on, on When the storm hits your front door, with a roar you can’t ignore, You run, run, away! but there’s no place to hide, mate! When the days turn into night, you don’t got no chance to fight, ‘Cause you’re too late! so kiss your ass goodbye, mate! It just don’t make no sense, there’s a million mouthes to feed, We got military action over monetary need And you can turn your back, or you can plant the seed You can choose compassion over universal greed I hope some day… when i’m dead and gone, We learn to right… everything that’s wrong, With loving hands… turn sick to strong, Our time will tell… if life goes on, on, on, on, on When the storm hits your front door, with a roar you can’t ignore, You run, run, away! but there’s no place to hide, mate! When the days turn into night, you don’t got no chance to fight, ‘Cause you’re too late! so kiss your ass goodbye, mate! And you can turn your back, but it won’t go away And you don’t look scared, but you should be afraid You can shut your mouth, but you still have a say And you just don’t care, for tomorrow, today And you can turn your back, but it won’t go away And you don’t look scared, but you should be afraid You can shut your mouth, but you still have a say And you just don’t care, for tomorrow, today Well no way! way! No way, no way, no way, no way! When the storm hits your front door, with a roar you can’t ignore, You run, run, away! but there’s no place to hide, mate! When the days turn into night, you don’t got no chance to fight, ‘Cause you’re too late! so kiss your ass goodbye, mate! [Thanks to Kat B. for these lyrics]
	10. Sudden Movements Lyrics Well I’m scared of my reflection Is it mine or is it yours? And I swear I hear the knockin’ But there’s no one at the door. Don’t think I’m losing my perspective ‘Cause I know one thing for sure They’ve been watching, they’ve been listening Every whisper, every word Your sudden movements, sudden movements Gonna give a soul away No sudden movements, sudden movements Or they’ll blow our soul away Dare I find my information Who’s the black sheep of the herd? I have mean guardian of angels And they’ll get what they deserve So lock your children in the basement Keep a raffle by the door Don’t be afraid of my intentions ‘Cause I’m more afraid of yours Your sudden movements, sudden movements Gonna give a soul away No sudden movements, sudden movements Or they’ll blow our soul away Your sudden movements, sudden movements Gonna give a soul away No sudden movements, sudden movements Or they’ll blow our soul away Blow our soul away Blow our soul away Your sudden movements, sudden movements Gonna give a soul away No sudden movements, sudden movements Or they’ll blow our soul away Your sudden movements, sudden movements Gonna give a soul away No sudden movements, sudden movements Or they’ll blow our soul away
	11. Definition Of Destiny Lyrics Won’t you stop, take a breath Find a moment to reflect On the pure and simple choices that we fail to see From the worst to the best From the east coast to the west On a never-ending quest to end our misery So cut to the chase, it’s time to escape Before it’s too late Yeah pick up the pace, catch up with fate It’s slipping away So get off my road, no I won’t be told ‘Cause I got my own (definition of destiny) Yeah take back control, and don’t let it go, The future’s unknown (definition of destiny) (definition of destiny) Punch the clock to a own While our lives are put on hold When did all our childhood dreams begin to disappear? Well a long time ago We had passion, we had goals Why is life so set in stone it doesn’t have to be? So cut to the chase, it’s time to escape Before it’s too late Yeah pick up the pace, catch up with fate It’s slipping away So get off my road, no I won’t be told ‘Cause I got my own (definition of destiny) Yeah take back control, and don’t let it go, The future’s unknown (definition of destiny) o get off my road, no I won’t be told ‘Cause I got my own (definition of destiny) Yeah take back control, and don’t let it go, The future’s unknown. Along the way, we lost our way So will you change or stay the same? So in between, reality And fantasy is destiny So cut to the chase, it’s time to escape Before it’s too late Yeah pick up the pace, catch up with fate It’s slipping away So get off my road, no I won’t be told ‘Cause I got my own (definition of destiny) Yeah take back control, and don’t let it go, The future’s unknown (definition of destiny) Yeah take back control, and don’t let it go, The future’s unknown (definition of destiny) ‘Cause I got my own Yeah I got my own Yeah I got my own(definition of destiny) (definition of destiny) (definition of destiny) (definition of destiny)

	1. This Is How It Goes Lyrics Everybody is tired and poor and sick of trying! If you see me on a corner will you stop or will you splash me? Take a look at what we’ve become, nothing more than silhouettes of A pretty family on postcard picture perfect, I don’t want it! So I hold my breath till my heart explodes, Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes! You can steal my body but you can’t steal my soul, Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes! Shitty weather, bad timing, lucky penny glues to the ground, dirty look from total stranger, hope you get lost and your not found! Take a look at, what we’ve become, nothing more than silhouettes of A pretty family on postcard picture perfect, I don’t want it! So I hold my breath till my heart explodes, Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes! You can steal my body but you can’t steal my soul, Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes! This is, how it, it goes! So unscrew my head, and then rinse it out, Polish my thoughts, turn into doubts! So I hold my breath till my heart explodes, Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes! You can steal my body but you can’t steal my soul, Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes!
	2. Devil In A Midnight Mass Lyrics A devil in a midnight mass, He preyed behind stained glass A memory of Sunday class, Resurrected from the past Hold your breath and count to four Pinky swears don’t work no more Footsteps down the hallway floor, Getting closer to my door I was alive, but now I’m singing… Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Violent Knight… at the edge of your knife, “Forgive me Father”…don’t make it right Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Silent Night… at the edge of your knife, You’re guilty! A devil in a midnight mass, Killed the boy inside the man The holy water in his hands, Can never wash away his sins Hold your breath and count to four Pinky swears don’t work no more Put my trust in God that day, Not the man that taught his way I was alive, but now I’m singing… Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Violent Knight… at the edge of your knife, “Forgive me Father”…don’t make it right Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Silent Night… at the edge of your knife You’re guilty! Whisper, whisper… don’t make a sound, Your bed is made; it’s in the ground
	3. This Suffering Lyrics Like a target drawn across my chest, She’s a bullet in Russian Roulette You said you’d never turn your back on me? Rescue me! Rescue me! Would you stand by me, or bury me? Bury me! Why don’t we end this lie? I can’t pretend this time I need a friend to find, My broken mind, before it falls to pieces… This suffering! Every time, You tried to leave me blind You’ll never close my eyes, You’ll never close my eyes and watch me die! And when she spins the bottle round and round, Every time it leaves me gagged and bound You said you’d never turn your back on me? Rescue me! Rescue me! Would you stand by me, or bury me? Bury me! Why don’t we end this lie? I can’t pretend this time I need a friend to find, My broken mind, before it falls to pieces… This suffering! Every time, You tried to leave me blind You’ll never close my eyes, You’ll never close my eyes and watch me die! Misery, won’t get the best of me ‘Cause now I’m calling, yes I’m calling on your bluff Throw down the cards, I’ve had enough! Why don’t we end this lie? I can’t pretend this time I need a friend to find, My broken mind, before it falls to pieces… This suffering! Every time, You tried to leave me blind You’ll never close my eyes, You’ll never close my eyes and watch me die!
	4. Line & Sinker Lyrics What you see is what you get! Fishing for the answers with a line and sinker Look at me and don’t forget! Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers Today I don’t feel pretty, and I’m tired of trying to fit right in, don’t think that your so great, cause being great must suck! We don’t always see the bright side, we all need ego suicide, you hung my ID today, but I have licked my wounds and carried on Everybody needs some sympathy Santa seemed to miss my chimney Reality is truly scaring me So stand up straight and firmly say… What you see is what you get! Fishing for the answers with a line and sinker Look at me and don’t forget! Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers My heart is in the right place, so wipe that smirk right off your face, don’t make me feel like that, cause that’s just plain not nice! We don’t always see the bright side, and I lied when I said I was fine, you slapped my face today but, I have licked my wounds and carried on Everybody needs some sympathy Santa seemed to miss my chimney Reality is truly scaring me So stand up straight and firmly say… What you see is what you get! Fishing for the answers with a line and sinker Look at me and don’t forget! Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers Everybody needs some sympathy Santa seemed to miss my chimney You stole my luck from me, and now my fortune cookie’s empty! What you see is what you get! Fishing for the answers with a line and sinker Look at me and don’t forget! Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers
	5. Standing In The Rain Lyrics My head, it hurts, each day it’s getting worse, My looks and smile have now become my curse, Tight lips, red skirt the never ending street, Big car, little man, my lover for a fee… So if ya see me will ya just drive on by Or will I catch the twinkle inside your eye? And if ya want me, well, I guess I want you Oh pretty baby how could you! Standing in the rain… Milk carton mug shot baby missing since 1983, Standing in the rain… 20 years of dirty needles rain drops running through my veins! My head, it hurts, each day it’s getting worse, No sun, my room has now become my hearse, Cold sores, I’m beat got bruises on my feet, My pride, these men have taken it from me! So if ya see me will ya just drive on by Or will I catch the twinkle inside your eye? And if ya want me, well, I guess I want you Oh pretty baby how could you! Standing in the rain… Milk carton mug shot baby missing since 1983, Standing in the rain… 20 years of dirty needles rain drops running through my veins! So if ya see me will ya just drive on by Or will I catch the twinkle inside your eye? And if ya want me, well, I guess I want you Oh pretty baby how could you! Standing in the rain… Milk carton mug shot baby, mother I have lost my way
	6. The Navy Song Lyrics Time… rolling along with the waves, A thousand miles away Holding you close in the rain, Seems just like yesterday Lost… hope in a faraway place And in my hand remains, A black and white print of a face, I’ll never see again I gave my life to save her The ocean turned to red In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all Cut down like lambs at slaughter, Good men were left for dead In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all Love… served until death do us part, I’m drifting in the dark Wounded and wishing to fall, Into your faithful arms I gave my life to save her The ocean turned to red In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all Cut down like lambs at slaughter, Good men were left for dead In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all Beneath the sky of hate, Beyond the sea of pain, In heaven I will wait, Until we meet again I gave my life to save her The ocean turned to red In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all Cut down like lambs at slaughter, Good men were left for dead In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all
	7. Worker Bees Lyrics March on, worker bees! Know your enemy! We take our orders given by the queen We’re not the killers, we’re the worker bees If you resist us you will feel our sting Surrender now before the swarm sets in Protect the hive from enemies! Protect the hive from enemies! Follow the herd mentality! Can we fight to save our souls? March on, worker bees! Know your enemy! A pollination coming from the west, And in a flash we will invade your nest Supply of honey flowing bottomless Play by our rules or you’ll be powerless Protect the hive from enemies! Protect the hive from enemies! Follow the herd mentality! Can we fight to save our souls? And we’ll march… along, with our blindfolds on And we’ll ride… the rails, with our pistols drawn Can the Lord… above, forgive what we’ve done? Can we fight to save our souls? And we’ll march… along, with our blindfolds on And we’ll ride… the rails, with our pistols drawn Can the Lord… above, forgive what we’ve done? Can we fight to save our souls? Can we fight to save our souls? Will we die to save our home?
	8. The Ex Lyrics Well, I looked at her face and then I knew she changed, My heart turned black and then the sky turned gray! My heart turned black and then the sky turned gray! So I sat in my room for 27 days, No she never called, I had something to say! No she never called, I had something to say! I don’t know much and I don’t know how… Why would she put me through such torture, I would have given my life for her, She was the one that knocked me over, Now I’m alone sitting on the corner Well, I heard she’s great and her new boyfriend’s lame, She can go to hell I’ll never be the same! She can go to hell I’ll never be the same! And these open wounds will heal with time they say, My heart turned black and then the sky turned gray! My heart turned black and then the sky turned gray! I don’t know much and I don’t know how… Why would she put me through such torture, I would have given my life for her, She was the one that knocked me over, Now I’m alone sitting on the corner
	9. Surrender Lyrics She reads a book from across the street, Waiting for someone that she’ll never meet Talk over coffee for an hour or two, She wonders why I’m always in a good mood Killing time before she struts her stuff, She needs support and I’ve become the crutch She’ll never know how much she means to me, I’d play the game but I’m the referee Surrender… every word, every thought, every sound Surrender… every touch, every smile, every frown Surrender… all the pain we’ve endured until now Surrender… all the hope that I lost, you have found Surrender… yourself to me Even though I know what I’m looking for, She’s got a brick wall behind her door I’d travel time and confess to her, But I’m afraid she’d shoot the messenger Surrender… every word, every thought, every sound Surrender… every touch, every smile, every frown Surrender… all the pain we’ve endured until now Surrender… all the hope that I lost, you have found Surrender… yourself to me I think I found a flower in a field of weeds, I think I found a flower in a field of weeds Searching until my hands bleed, This flower don’t belong to me This flower don’t belong to me Why can’t she belong to me? Surrender… every word, every thought, every sound Surrender… every touch, every smile, every frown Surrender… all the pain we’ve endured until now Surrender… all the hope that I lost, you have found Surrender… yourself to me I never had the nerve to ask, Has my moment come and passed?
	10. Prisoners Of Today Lyrics I never bite off more than I can chew but then she came and bit me, I never bite off more than I can chew but then she bit my leg, She said “don’t wanna work I wanna play and live my life like it was Sunday!” “The only problem is that Sunday only comes now once a week and I’m a freak but…” We’re breaking up the city, no time for wasting away, so tell me why should we stay, prisoners of today! My body is tired my souls excited and I wish that I was gifted, My body is tired my souls excited and I wish I had some spunk, She said ” I wanna run, I wanna hide, and leave this place just like it left me” “The only problem is I need to find the balls to follow through and that’s the truth now…” We’re breaking up the city, no time for wasting away, so tell me why should we stay, prisoners of today! When there’s no time for one another? Cause this is our time and our place… History I can’t erase! We’re breaking up the city, no time for wasting away, so tell me why should we stay, prisoners of today! When there’s no time for one another? There’s no time for one another?
	11. Fallen Leaves Lyrics In a crooked little town, they were lost and never found Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground I hitched a ride, until the coast To leave behind, all of my ghosts Searching for something, I couldn’t find at home Can’t get no job, can you spare a dime? Just one more hit, and I’ll be fine I swear to God, this’ll be my one last time! In a crooked little town, they were lost and never found Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground Run away before you drown, or the streets will beat you down Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground When it gets dark, in Pigeon Park Voice in my head, will soon be fed By the vultures, that circle round the dead! In a crooked little town, they were lost and never found Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground Run away before you drown, or the streets will beat you down Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground I never once thought, I’d ever be caught! Staring at sidewalks, hiding my track marks! I left my best friends, or did they just leave me? In a crooked little town, they were lost and never found Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground Run away before you drown, or the streets will beat you down Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground Run away before you drown! Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground
	12. Perfect World Lyrics All we shared was a mattress, and a lie, and an address Baby I don’t need you, well baby I don’t need you Once occupied by a goddess, now it’s a room full of boxes She said, “it’s time to leave you” but baby I don’t need you! In a perfect world… her face would not exist In a perfect world… a broken heart is fixed In a perfect world… I’d see no therapist In a perfect world… this wouldn’t make me sick I never got the whole story, not ’til after she left me Baby I don’t need you, well baby I don’t need you Word on the street is she f**ked him, while we were playing in Cleveland Well baby I don’t need you, you’re fading in my rearview In a perfect world… her face would not exist In a perfect world… a broken heart is fixed In a perfect world… I’d see no therapist In a perfect world… this wouldn’t make me sick She pulls the trigger until the gun goes click! She pulls the trigger until the gun goes click! In a perfect world… her face would not exist In a perfect world… this wouldn’t make me sick! Control-Alt-Deleted Control-Alt-Deleted Control-Alt-Deleted Reset my memory! In a perfect world… her face would not exist In a perfect world… a broken heart is fixed In a perfect world… I’d see no therapist In a perfect world… this wouldn’t make me sick She pulls the trigger until the gun goes click! She pulls the trigger until the gun goes click! She pulls the trigger until the gun goes click! She pulls the trigger until the gun goes…
	13. Sympathy Lyrics A slap in the face, And I can’t erase, These things that you say, Don’t make it all okay, it’s not okay When push comes to shove, I’ll put on the gloves, Intentions are cruel, I ain’t nobody’s fool you know It hurts, my pride, step aside, ‘Cause I don’t need your… Sympathy Won’t get the best of me! Misery That’s what you’re giving me! Sympathy It’s just like trickery! Breaking me down A fistful of lies, Dressed up in disguise, And make no mistake, I know they’re all so fake, they’re all so fake My self-righteous friend, I just can’t pretend, Your words are the truth, Sincere only when they suit you It hurts, my pride, step aside, ‘Cause I don’t need your… Sympathy! Won’t get the best of me Misery! That’s what your giving me Sympathy! It’s just like trickery Breaking me down Sympathy Won’t get the best of me! Misery This s**t is killing me!

	15. Nothing To Lose Lyrics Need more friends with wings, All the angels I know put concrete in my veins I’d always walk home alone, So I became lifeless just like my telephone There’s nothing to lose When no one knows your name There’s nothing to gain But the days don’t seem to change Never played truth or dare, I’d have to check my mirror to see if I’m still here My parents had no clue, That I ate all my lunches alone in the bathroom There’s nothing to lose When no one knows your name There’s nothing to gain But the days don’t seem to change There’s nothing to lose My notebook will explain There’s nothing to gain And I can’t fight the pain Teacher said it’s just a phase, When I grow up, my children will probably do the same Kids just love to tease, Who’d know it put me underground and age 17 There’s nothing to lose When no one knows your name There’s nothing to gain But the days don’t seem to change There’s nothing to lose My notebook will explain There’s nothing to gain And I can’t fight the pain

Red Flag Lyrics Cast off the crutch that kills the pain, The red flag waving never meant the same The kids of tomorrow don’t need today, When they live in the sins of yesterday Well I’ve never seen us act like this, Our only hope is the minds of kids, And they’ll show us a thing or two Our only weapons are the guns of youth, It’s only time before they tighten the noose, And then the hunt will be on for you The red flag waving never meant the same… Cast off the crutch that kills the pain, The red flag waving never meant the same The kids of tomorrow don’t need today, When they live in the sins of yesterday Like the smallest bee packs a sting, Like a pawn checkmates a king, We’ll attack at the crack of dawn Build a ladder if there’s a wall, Don’t be afraid to slip and fall, Speak for yourself, or they’ll speak for you The red flag waving never meant the same… Cast off the crutch that kills the pain, The red flag waving never meant the same The kids of tomorrow don’t need today, When they live in the sins of yesterday Like a fire, don’t need water Like a jury, needs a liar Like riot, don’t need order Like a madman, needs a martyr We don’t need them! Cast off the crutch that kills the pain, The red flag waving never meant the same The kids of tomorrow don’t need today, When they live in the sins of yesterday We don’t need them!

	1. This Is How It Goes (Live At Brixton Academy, London) Lyrics Everybody is tired and poor and sick of trying! If you see me on a corner will you stop or will you splash me? Take a look at what we’ve become, nothing more than silhouettes of A pretty family on postcard picture perfect, I don’t want it! So I hold my breath till my heart explodes, Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes! You can steal my body but you can’t steal my soul, Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes! Shitty weather, bad timing, lucky penny glues to the ground, dirty look from total stranger, hope you get lost and your not found! Take a look at, what we’ve become, nothing more than silhouettes of A pretty family on postcard picture perfect, I don’t want it! So I hold my breath till my heart explodes, Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes! You can steal my body but you can’t steal my soul, Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes! This is, how it, it goes! So unscrew my head, and then rinse it out, Polish my thoughts, turn into doubts! So I hold my breath till my heart explodes, Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes! You can steal my body but you can’t steal my soul, Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes!

Devil In A Midnight Mass (Live At Brixton Academy, London) Lyrics A devil in a midnight mass, He preyed behind stained glass A memory of Sunday class, Resurrected from the past Hold your breath and count to four Pinky swears don’t work no more Footsteps down the hallway floor, Getting closer to my door I was alive, but now I’m singing… Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Violent Knight… at the edge of your knife, “Forgive me Father”…don’t make it right Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Silent Night… at the edge of your knife, You’re guilty! A devil in a midnight mass, Killed the boy inside the man The holy water in his hands, Can never wash away his sins Hold your breath and count to four Pinky swears don’t work no more Put my trust in God that day, Not the man that taught his way I was alive, but now I’m singing… Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Violent Knight… at the edge of your knife, “Forgive me Father”…don’t make it right Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Silent Night… at the edge of your knife You’re guilty!

Standing In The Rain (Live At Brixton Academy, London) Lyrics My head, it hurts, each day it’s getting worse, My looks and smile have now become my curse, Tight lips, red skirt the never ending street, Big car, little man, my lover for a fee… So if ya see me will ya just drive on by Or will I catch the twinkle inside your eye?

	5. The Navy Song (Live At Brixton Academy, London) Lyrics Time… rolling along with the waves, A thousand miles away Holding you close in the rain, Seems just like yesterday Lost… hope in a faraway place And in my hand remains, A black and white print of a face, I’ll never see again I gave my life to save her The ocean turned to red In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all Cut down like lambs at slaughter, Good men were left for dead In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all Love… served until death do us part, I’m drifting in the dark Wounded and wishing to fall, Into your faithful arms I gave my life to save her The ocean turned to red In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all Cut down like lambs at slaughter, Good men were left for dead In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all Beneath the sky of hate, Beyond the sea of pain, In heaven I will wait, Until we meet again I gave my life to save her The ocean turned to red In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all Cut down like lambs at slaughter, Good men were left for dead In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all

Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers Today I don’t feel pretty, and I’m tired of trying to fit right in, don’t think that your so great, cause being great must suck!

Fishing for the answers with a line and sinker Look at me and don’t forget! Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers Everybody needs some sympathy Santa seemed to miss my chimney You stole my luck from me, and now my fortune cookie’s empty! What you see is what you get! Fishing for the answers with a line and sinker Look at me and don’t forget! Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers

We don’t always see the bright side, we all need ego suicide, you hung my ID today, but I have licked my wounds and carried on Everybody needs some sympathy Santa seemed to miss my chimney Reality is truly scaring me So stand up straight and firmly say… What you see is what you get! Fishing for the answers with a line and sinker Look at me and don’t forget! Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers My heart is in the right place, so wipe that smirk right off your face, don’t make me feel like that, cause that’s just plain not nice! We don’t always see the bright side, and I lied when I said I was fine, you slapped my face today but, I have licked my wounds and carried on Everybody needs some sympathy Santa seemed to miss my chimney Reality is truly scaring me So stand up straight and firmly say… What you see is what you get! Fishing for the answers with a line and sinker Look at me and don’t forget! Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers Everybody needs some sympathy Santa seemed to miss my chimney You stole my luck from me, and now my fortune cookie’s empty! What you see is what you get! Fishing for the answers with a line and sinker Look at me and don’t forget! Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers
	5. Standing In The Rain Lyrics My head, it hurts, each day it’s getting worse, My looks and smile have now become my curse, Tight lips, red skirt the never ending street, Big car, little man, my lover for a fee… So if ya see me will ya just drive on by Or will I catch the twinkle inside your eye? And if ya want me, well, I guess I want you Oh pretty baby how could you! Standing in the rain… Milk carton mug shot baby missing since 1983, Standing in the rain… 20 years of dirty needles rain drops running through my veins! My head, it hurts, each day it’s getting worse, No sun, my room has now become my hearse, Cold sores, I’m beat got bruises on my feet, My pride, these men have taken it from me! So if ya see me will ya just drive on by Or will I catch the twinkle inside your eye? And if ya want me, well, I guess I want you Oh pretty baby how could you! Standing in the rain… Milk carton mug shot baby missing since 1983, Standing in the rain… 20 years of dirty needles rain drops running through my veins! So if ya see me will ya just drive on by Or will I catch the twinkle inside your eye? And if ya want me, well, I guess I want you Oh pretty baby how could you! Standing in the rain… Milk carton mug shot baby, mother I have lost my way
	6. The Navy Song Lyrics Time… rolling along with the waves, A thousand miles away Holding you close in the rain, Seems just like yesterday Lost… hope in a faraway place And in my hand remains, A black and white print of a face, I’ll never see again I gave my life to save her The ocean turned to red In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all Cut down like lambs at slaughter, Good men were left for dead In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all Love… served until death do us part, I’m drifting in the dark Wounded and wishing to fall, Into your faithful arms I gave my life to save her The ocean turned to red In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all Cut down like lambs at slaughter, Good men were left for dead In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all Beneath the sky of hate, Beyond the sea of pain, In heaven I will wait, Until we meet again I gave my life to save her The ocean turned to red In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all Cut down like lambs at slaughter, Good men were left for dead In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all

	15. Nothing To Lose Lyrics Need more friends with wings, All the angels I know put concrete in my veins I’d always walk home alone, So I became lifeless just like my telephone There’s nothing to lose When no one knows your name There’s nothing to gain But the days don’t seem to change Never played truth or dare, I’d have to check my mirror to see if I’m still here My parents had no clue, That I ate all my lunches alone in the bathroom There’s nothing to lose When no one knows your name There’s nothing to gain But the days don’t seem to change There’s nothing to lose My notebook will explain There’s nothing to gain And I can’t fight the pain Teacher said it’s just a phase, When I grow up, my children will probably do the same Kids just love to tease, Who’d know it put me underground and age 17 There’s nothing to lose When no one knows your name There’s nothing to gain But the days don’t seem to change There’s nothing to lose My notebook will explain There’s nothing to gain And I can’t fight the pain

	17. Red Flag Lyrics Cast off the crutch that kills the pain, The red flag waving never meant the same The kids of tomorrow don’t need today, When they live in the sins of yesterday Well I’ve never seen us act like this, Our only hope is the minds of kids, And they’ll show us a thing or two Our only weapons are the guns of youth, It’s only time before they tighten the noose, And then the hunt will be on for you The red flag waving never meant the same… Cast off the crutch that kills the pain, The red flag waving never meant the same The kids of tomorrow don’t need today, When they live in the sins of yesterday Like the smallest bee packs a sting, Like a pawn checkmates a king, We’ll attack at the crack of dawn Build a ladder if there’s a wall, Don’t be afraid to slip and fall, Speak for yourself, or they’ll speak for you The red flag waving never meant the same… Cast off the crutch that kills the pain, The red flag waving never meant the same The kids of tomorrow don’t need today, When they live in the sins of yesterday Like a fire, don’t need water Like a jury, needs a liar Like riot, don’t need order Like a madman, needs a martyr We don’t need them! Cast off the crutch that kills the pain, The red flag waving never meant the same The kids of tomorrow don’t need today, When they live in the sins of yesterday We don’t need them!

	1. This Is How It Goes Lyrics Everybody is tired and poor and sick of trying! If you see me on a corner will you stop or will you splash me? Take a look at what we’ve become, nothing more than silhouettes of A pretty family on postcard picture perfect, I don’t want it! So I hold my breath till my heart explodes, Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes! You can steal my body but you can’t steal my soul, Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes! Shitty weather, bad timing, lucky penny glues to the ground, dirty look from total stranger, hope you get lost and your not found! Take a look at, what we’ve become, nothing more than silhouettes of A pretty family on postcard picture perfect, I don’t want it! So I hold my breath till my heart explodes, Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes! You can steal my body but you can’t steal my soul, Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes! This is, how it, it goes! So unscrew my head, and then rinse it out, Polish my thoughts, turn into doubts! So I hold my breath till my heart explodes, Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes! You can steal my body but you can’t steal my soul, Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes!
	2. Devil In A Midnight Mass Lyrics A devil in a midnight mass, He preyed behind stained glass A memory of Sunday class, Resurrected from the past Hold your breath and count to four Pinky swears don’t work no more Footsteps down the hallway floor, Getting closer to my door I was alive, but now I’m singing… Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Violent Knight… at the edge of your knife, “Forgive me Father”…don’t make it right Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Silent Night… at the edge of your knife, You’re guilty! A devil in a midnight mass, Killed the boy inside the man The holy water in his hands, Can never wash away his sins Hold your breath and count to four Pinky swears don’t work no more Put my trust in God that day, Not the man that taught his way I was alive, but now I’m singing… Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Violent Knight… at the edge of your knife, “Forgive me Father”…don’t make it right Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Silent Night… at the edge of your knife You’re guilty! Whisper, whisper… don’t make a sound, Your bed is made; it’s in the ground
	3. This Suffering Lyrics Like a target drawn across my chest, She’s a bullet in Russian Roulette You said you’d never turn your back on me? Rescue me! Rescue me! Would you stand by me, or bury me? Bury me! Why don’t we end this lie? I can’t pretend this time I need a friend to find, My broken mind, before it falls to pieces… This suffering! Every time, You tried to leave me blind You’ll never close my eyes, You’ll never close my eyes and watch me die! And when she spins the bottle round and round, Every time it leaves me gagged and bound You said you’d never turn your back on me? Rescue me! Rescue me! Would you stand by me, or bury me? Bury me! Why don’t we end this lie? I can’t pretend this time I need a friend to find, My broken mind, before it falls to pieces… This suffering! Every time, You tried to leave me blind You’ll never close my eyes, You’ll never close my eyes and watch me die! Misery, won’t get the best of me ‘Cause now I’m calling, yes I’m calling on your bluff Throw down the cards, I’ve had enough! Why don’t we end this lie? I can’t pretend this time I need a friend to find, My broken mind, before it falls to pieces… This suffering! Every time, You tried to leave me blind You’ll never close my eyes, You’ll never close my eyes and watch me die!

	15. Nothing To Lose Lyrics Need more friends with wings, All the angels I know put concrete in my veins I’d always walk home alone, So I became lifeless just like my telephone There’s nothing to lose When no one knows your name There’s nothing to gain But the days don’t seem to change Never played truth or dare, I’d have to check my mirror to see if I’m still here My parents had no clue, That I ate all my lunches alone in the bathroom There’s nothing to lose When no one knows your name There’s nothing to gain But the days don’t seem to change There’s nothing to lose My notebook will explain There’s nothing to gain And I can’t fight the pain Teacher said it’s just a phase, When I grow up, my children will probably do the same Kids just love to tease, Who’d know it put me underground and age 17 There’s nothing to lose When no one knows your name There’s nothing to gain But the days don’t seem to change There’s nothing to lose My notebook will explain There’s nothing to gain And I can’t fight the pain

	17. Red Flag Lyrics Cast off the crutch that kills the pain, The red flag waving never meant the same The kids of tomorrow don’t need today, When they live in the sins of yesterday Well I’ve never seen us act like this, Our only hope is the minds of kids, And they’ll show us a thing or two Our only weapons are the guns of youth, It’s only time before they tighten the noose, And then the hunt will be on for you The red flag waving never meant the same… Cast off the crutch that kills the pain, The red flag waving never meant the same The kids of tomorrow don’t need today, When they live in the sins of yesterday Like the smallest bee packs a sting, Like a pawn checkmates a king, We’ll attack at the crack of dawn Build a ladder if there’s a wall, Don’t be afraid to slip and fall, Speak for yourself, or they’ll speak for you The red flag waving never meant the same… Cast off the crutch that kills the pain, The red flag waving never meant the same The kids of tomorrow don’t need today, When they live in the sins of yesterday Like a fire, don’t need water Like a jury, needs a liar Like riot, don’t need order Like a madman, needs a martyr We don’t need them! Cast off the crutch that kills the pain, The red flag waving never meant the same The kids of tomorrow don’t need today, When they live in the sins of yesterday We don’t need them!

	1. This Is How It Goes Lyrics Everybody is tired and poor and sick of trying! If you see me on a corner will you stop or will you splash me? Take a look at what we’ve become, nothing more than silhouettes of A pretty family on postcard picture perfect, I don’t want it! So I hold my breath till my heart explodes, Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes! You can steal my body but you can’t steal my soul, Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes! Shitty weather, bad timing, lucky penny glues to the ground, dirty look from total stranger, hope you get lost and your not found! Take a look at, what we’ve become, nothing more than silhouettes of A pretty family on postcard picture perfect, I don’t want it! So I hold my breath till my heart explodes, Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes! You can steal my body but you can’t steal my soul, Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes! This is, how it, it goes! So unscrew my head, and then rinse it out, Polish my thoughts, turn into doubts! So I hold my breath till my heart explodes, Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes! You can steal my body but you can’t steal my soul, Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes!
	2. Devil In A Midnight Mass Lyrics A devil in a midnight mass, He preyed behind stained glass A memory of Sunday class, Resurrected from the past Hold your breath and count to four Pinky swears don’t work no more Footsteps down the hallway floor, Getting closer to my door I was alive, but now I’m singing… Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Violent Knight… at the edge of your knife, “Forgive me Father”…don’t make it right Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Silent Night… at the edge of your knife, You’re guilty! A devil in a midnight mass, Killed the boy inside the man The holy water in his hands, Can never wash away his sins Hold your breath and count to four Pinky swears don’t work no more Put my trust in God that day, Not the man that taught his way I was alive, but now I’m singing… Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Violent Knight… at the edge of your knife, “Forgive me Father”…don’t make it right Silent Night… for the rest of my life, Silent Night… at the edge of your knife You’re guilty! Whisper, whisper… don’t make a sound, Your bed is made; it’s in the ground
	3. This Suffering Lyrics Like a target drawn across my chest, She’s a bullet in Russian Roulette You said you’d never turn your back on me? Rescue me! Rescue me! Would you stand by me, or bury me? Bury me! Why don’t we end this lie? I can’t pretend this time I need a friend to find, My broken mind, before it falls to pieces… This suffering! Every time, You tried to leave me blind You’ll never close my eyes, You’ll never close my eyes and watch me die! And when she spins the bottle round and round, Every time it leaves me gagged and bound You said you’d never turn your back on me? Rescue me! Rescue me! Would you stand by me, or bury me? Bury me! Why don’t we end this lie? I can’t pretend this time I need a friend to find, My broken mind, before it falls to pieces… This suffering! Every time, You tried to leave me blind You’ll never close my eyes, You’ll never close my eyes and watch me die! Misery, won’t get the best of me ‘Cause now I’m calling, yes I’m calling on your bluff Throw down the cards, I’ve had enough! Why don’t we end this lie? I can’t pretend this time I need a friend to find, My broken mind, before it falls to pieces… This suffering! Every time, You tried to leave me blind You’ll never close my eyes, You’ll never close my eyes and watch me die!
	4. Line & Sinker Lyrics What you see is what you get! Fishing for the answers with a line and sinker Look at me and don’t forget! Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers Today I don’t feel pretty, and I’m tired of trying to fit right in, don’t think that your so great, cause being great must suck! We don’t always see the bright side, we all need ego suicide, you hung my ID today, but I have licked my wounds and carried on Everybody needs some sympathy Santa seemed to miss my chimney Reality is truly scaring me So stand up straight and firmly say… What you see is what you get! Fishing for the answers with a line and sinker Look at me and don’t forget! Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers My heart is in the right place, so wipe that smirk right off your face, don’t make me feel like that, cause that’s just plain not nice! We don’t always see the bright side, and I lied when I said I was fine, you slapped my face today but, I have licked my wounds and carried on Everybody needs some sympathy Santa seemed to miss my chimney Reality is truly scaring me So stand up straight and firmly say… What you see is what you get! Fishing for the answers with a line and sinker Look at me and don’t forget! Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers Everybody needs some sympathy Santa seemed to miss my chimney You stole my luck from me, and now my fortune cookie’s empty! What you see is what you get! Fishing for the answers with a line and sinker Look at me and don’t forget! Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers
	5. Standing In The Rain Lyrics My head, it hurts, each day it’s getting worse, My looks and smile have now become my curse, Tight lips, red skirt the never ending street, Big car, little man, my lover for a fee… So if ya see me will ya just drive on by Or will I catch the twinkle inside your eye? And if ya want me, well, I guess I want you Oh pretty baby how could you! Standing in the rain… Milk carton mug shot baby missing since 1983, Standing in the rain… 20 years of dirty needles rain drops running through my veins! My head, it hurts, each day it’s getting worse, No sun, my room has now become my hearse, Cold sores, I’m beat got bruises on my feet, My pride, these men have taken it from me! So if ya see me will ya just drive on by Or will I catch the twinkle inside your eye? And if ya want me, well, I guess I want you Oh pretty baby how could you! Standing in the rain… Milk carton mug shot baby missing since 1983, Standing in the rain… 20 years of dirty needles rain drops running through my veins! So if ya see me will ya just drive on by Or will I catch the twinkle inside your eye? And if ya want me, well, I guess I want you Oh pretty baby how could you! Standing in the rain… Milk carton mug shot baby, mother I have lost my way
	6. The Navy Song Lyrics Time… rolling along with the waves, A thousand miles away Holding you close in the rain, Seems just like yesterday Lost… hope in a faraway place And in my hand remains, A black and white print of a face, I’ll never see again I gave my life to save her The ocean turned to red In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all Cut down like lambs at slaughter, Good men were left for dead In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all Love… served until death do us part, I’m drifting in the dark Wounded and wishing to fall, Into your faithful arms I gave my life to save her The ocean turned to red In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all Cut down like lambs at slaughter, Good men were left for dead In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all Beneath the sky of hate, Beyond the sea of pain, In heaven I will wait, Until we meet again I gave my life to save her The ocean turned to red In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all Cut down like lambs at slaughter, Good men were left for dead In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all
	7. Worker Bees Lyrics March on, worker bees! Know your enemy! We take our orders given by the queen We’re not the killers, we’re the worker bees If you resist us you will feel our sting Surrender now before the swarm sets in Protect the hive from enemies! Protect the hive from enemies! Follow the herd mentality! Can we fight to save our souls? March on, worker bees! Know your enemy! A pollination coming from the west, And in a flash we will invade your nest Supply of honey flowing bottomless Play by our rules or you’ll be powerless Protect the hive from enemies! Protect the hive from enemies! Follow the herd mentality! Can we fight to save our souls? And we’ll march… along, with our blindfolds on And we’ll ride… the rails, with our pistols drawn Can the Lord… above, forgive what we’ve done? Can we fight to save our souls? And we’ll march… along, with our blindfolds on And we’ll ride… the rails, with our pistols drawn Can the Lord… above, forgive what we’ve done? Can we fight to save our souls? Can we fight to save our souls? Will we die to save our home?
	8. The Ex Lyrics Well, I looked at her face and then I knew she changed, My heart turned black and then the sky turned gray! My heart turned black and then the sky turned gray! So I sat in my room for 27 days, No she never called, I had something to say! No she never called, I had something to say! I don’t know much and I don’t know how… Why would she put me through such torture, I would have given my life for her, She was the one that knocked me over, Now I’m alone sitting on the corner Well, I heard she’s great and her new boyfriend’s lame, She can go to hell I’ll never be the same! She can go to hell I’ll never be the same! And these open wounds will heal with time they say, My heart turned black and then the sky turned gray! My heart turned black and then the sky turned gray! I don’t know much and I don’t know how… Why would she put me through such torture, I would have given my life for her, She was the one that knocked me over, Now I’m alone sitting on the corner
	9. Surrender Lyrics She reads a book from across the street, Waiting for someone that she’ll never meet Talk over coffee for an hour or two, She wonders why I’m always in a good mood Killing time before she struts her stuff, She needs support and I’ve become the crutch She’ll never know how much she means to me, I’d play the game but I’m the referee Surrender… every word, every thought, every sound Surrender… every touch, every smile, every frown Surrender… all the pain we’ve endured until now Surrender… all the hope that I lost, you have found Surrender… yourself to me Even though I know what I’m looking for, She’s got a brick wall behind her door I’d travel time and confess to her, But I’m afraid she’d shoot the messenger Surrender… every word, every thought, every sound Surrender… every touch, every smile, every frown Surrender… all the pain we’ve endured until now Surrender… all the hope that I lost, you have found Surrender… yourself to me I think I found a flower in a field of weeds, I think I found a flower in a field of weeds Searching until my hands bleed, This flower don’t belong to me This flower don’t belong to me Why can’t she belong to me? Surrender… every word, every thought, every sound Surrender… every touch, every smile, every frown Surrender… all the pain we’ve endured until now Surrender… all the hope that I lost, you have found Surrender… yourself to me I never had the nerve to ask, Has my moment come and passed?
	10. Prisoners Of Today Lyrics I never bite off more than I can chew but then she came and bit me, I never bite off more than I can chew but then she bit my leg, She said “don’t wanna work I wanna play and live my life like it was Sunday!” “The only problem is that Sunday only comes now once a week and I’m a freak but…” We’re breaking up the city, no time for wasting away, so tell me why should we stay, prisoners of today! My body is tired my souls excited and I wish that I was gifted, My body is tired my souls excited and I wish I had some spunk, She said ” I wanna run, I wanna hide, and leave this place just like it left me” “The only problem is I need to find the balls to follow through and that’s the truth now…” We’re breaking up the city, no time for wasting away, so tell me why should we stay, prisoners of today! When there’s no time for one another? Cause this is our time and our place… History I can’t erase! We’re breaking up the city, no time for wasting away, so tell me why should we stay, prisoners of today! When there’s no time for one another? There’s no time for one another?
	11. Fallen Leaves Lyrics In a crooked little town, they were lost and never found Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground I hitched a ride, until the coast To leave behind, all of my ghosts Searching for something, I couldn’t find at home Can’t get no job, can you spare a dime? Just one more hit, and I’ll be fine I swear to God, this’ll be my one last time! In a crooked little town, they were lost and never found Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground Run away before you drown, or the streets will beat you down Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground When it gets dark, in Pigeon Park Voice in my head, will soon be fed By the vultures, that circle round the dead! In a crooked little town, they were lost and never found Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground Run away before you drown, or the streets will beat you down Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground I never once thought, I’d ever be caught! Staring at sidewalks, hiding my track marks! I left my best friends, or did they just leave me? In a crooked little town, they were lost and never found Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground Run away before you drown, or the streets will beat you down Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground Run away before you drown! Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground
	12. Perfect World Lyrics All we shared was a mattress, and a lie, and an address Baby I don’t need you, well baby I don’t need you Once occupied by a goddess, now it’s a room full of boxes She said, “it’s time to leave you” but baby I don’t need you! In a perfect world… her face would not exist In a perfect world… a broken heart is fixed In a perfect world… I’d see no therapist In a perfect world… this wouldn’t make me sick I never got the whole story, not ’til after she left me Baby I don’t need you, well baby I don’t need you Word on the street is she f**ked him, while we were playing in Cleveland Well baby I don’t need you, you’re fading in my rearview In a perfect world… her face would not exist In a perfect world… a broken heart is fixed In a perfect world… I’d see no therapist In a perfect world… this wouldn’t make me sick She pulls the trigger until the gun goes click! She pulls the trigger until the gun goes click! In a perfect world… her face would not exist In a perfect world… this wouldn’t make me sick! Control-Alt-Deleted Control-Alt-Deleted Control-Alt-Deleted Reset my memory!

Fallen Leaves Lyrics In a crooked little town, they were lost and never found Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground I hitched a ride, until the coast To leave behind, all of my ghosts Searching for something, I couldn’t find at home Can’t get no job, can you spare a dime? Just one more hit, and I’ll be fine I swear to God, this’ll be my one last time! In a crooked little town, they were lost and never found Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground Run away before you drown, or the streets will beat you down Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground When it gets dark, in Pigeon Park Voice in my head, will soon be fed By the vultures, that circle round the dead! In a crooked little town, they were lost and never found Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground Run away before you drown, or the streets will beat you down Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground I never once thought, I’d ever be caught! Staring at sidewalks, hiding my track marks! I left my best friends, or did they just leave me? In a crooked little town, they were lost and never found Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground Run away before you drown, or the streets will beat you down Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground Run away before you drown! Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground
	2. Fallen Leaves (Live At MTV Campus Invasion Germany) Lyrics In a crooked little town, they were lost and never found Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground I hitched a ride, until the coast To leave behind, all of my ghosts Searching for something, I couldn’t find at home Can’t get no job, can you spare a dime? Just one more hit, and I’ll be fine I swear to God, this’ll be my one last time! In a crooked little town, they were lost and never found Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground Run away before you drown, or the streets will beat you down Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground When it gets dark, in Pigeon Park Voice in my head, will soon be fed By the vultures, that circle round the dead! In a crooked little town, they were lost and never found Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground Run away before you drown, or the streets will beat you down Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground I never once thought, I’d ever be caught! Staring at sidewalks, hiding my track marks! I left my best friends, or did they just leave me? In a crooked little town, they were lost and never found Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground Run away before you drown, or the streets will beat you down Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground Run away before you drown! Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves… on the ground
	3. Prisoners Of Today Lyrics I never bite off more than I can chew but then she came and bit me, I never bite off more than I can chew but then she bit my leg, She said “don’t wanna work I wanna play and live my life like it was Sunday!” “The only problem is that Sunday only comes now once a week and I’m a freak but…” We’re breaking up the city, no time for wasting away, so tell me why should we stay, prisoners of today! My body is tired my souls excited and I wish that I was gifted, My body is tired my souls excited and I wish I had some spunk, She said ” I wanna run, I wanna hide, and leave this place just like it left me” “The only problem is I need to find the balls to follow through and that’s the truth now…” We’re breaking up the city, no time for wasting away, so tell me why should we stay, prisoners of today! When there’s no time for one another? Cause this is our time and our place… History I can’t erase! We’re breaking up the city, no time for wasting away, so tell me why should we stay, prisoners of today! When there’s no time for one another? There’s no time for one another?
