"I Awake"


Well I awake I pray for truth [?] something I can do I sit and think, it's on my hands how can something [?] when I'm just one man time our place in time we are respectively approaching the end of the line the end we must prepare [?] we continue to waste our planet and we always seem to close our eyes but as long as [?] continue to die no, no it's not me we only view the things that we wish to see where, it's time to go outside of my mind we don't really know think, [?] we can't survive with this mess we create no, no not again [?]

"I Remember When"

"I Remember When"


I stand alone listening to the sound that you offered me
Having such a power shine for all of us to see
Leave me hangin' on to the things that could have been
And leave me lonely with this note till I remember when
I remember when my childhood fears did subside
I remember when the adult killed the child inside
I remember when yes I remember when
I remember when yes I remember when
All my nights are lonely, and all the cries that were never heard
All taught me a big lesson that love is a very big word
Always told me look, be honest, see the upper hand
What those words did to me is put a bullet in my head
I remember when my childhood fears did subside
I remember when the adult killed the child inside
I remember when yes I remember when
I remember when yes I remember when
So many things we soon forget
The many things we all regret
Should've known to let you go
You should've known to let me go
Many times that we would fight
The way you keep me up all night
Should've known to let you go
You should have known to let me go
Let me go!
I remember when yes I remember when
I remember when yes I remember when
I remember when yes I remember when
I remember when yes I remember when

"I'm Not A Loser"
(originally by The Descendents)



Think that I'm a loser
'Cause now my pants are too low
Think that I'm a slob
'Cause I got holes in my shoes
Think I'm Strung Out
Just like my dirty shirt
Well you can fuck off
'Cause I'm working sixty a week
You think that life is really tough
When your daddy won't buy
You a brand new car
Take a girl out she won't fuck you
You just brought her a gram of coke
Spend all your money on shitty drugs
I'm not a loser! That's right,
I'm not a loser!
Cruise down the boulevard
Wasting Mommy's gas while you're
Looking for kicks on Friday night
You're only goal in life
Is to smoke a joint
And decide how you're gonna get
Laid tonight
You are a fucking son-of-a-bitch

You arrogant asshole
Your pants are too tight
You fucking homo
You suck, Mr. Butt fuck
You don't belong here
No away you fucking gay
I'm not a loser!

"Ice Burn"

"Ice Burn"


I can feel the murky grip of a cold depression coming down
I can feel her hands around my neck shake me to the ground
Ice burn of the soul, in light, in sickness and in death
Infected every word and every thought and every single breath

Twisted by design, the creeps deep inside of me
Feeding off this hunger, rage and the insecurity
Tempted by the rage, I feed off nothing but myself
Thirsty for the things that make me do this to myself

My pen is dripping the words along to scrape the smile off my face
Every detour leads me here to shower in this waste

You are my friend
But now you're just living all over me

You watch me when I get it right, you watch me when I fall
Watch me every single day, listen to every word I say
I swear I never wanted you; I never needed anything from your
Twisted, fucked-up, lying words, asleep at the wheel

My pen is dripping words the along to scrape the smile off my face
Every detour leads me here to shower in this waste

You are my friend

"In Harms Way"

"In Harms Way"


Your democracy has become a tattered vision of truth,
corporate sponsorship, rapin' & ruling the land,
do you think what you say will make it any better,
it's been this way two hundred years,
will stay this way forever! you made promises of health
care still my teeth rot in my head.
you once seemed so concerned now you left us all for dead.
the unemployed, the uninsured, the homeless in the street,
we're the ones that put you there, buddy you've got promises to keep.
we won't survive, this road to power led by all your kings.
it's time to wake up and take back what you have lost.
and when it all falls from this malady spread from within,
it's happened once before, my friend, well here it comes again.
this state we've built is a sick reflection of
all that we've become we've closed our eyes,
been fed these lies do you know what your country's done.
in the land of mad consumers free to spend at their own will,
we're losing sight of what it means to be a free america.
i cannot stand by, and watch them as they fuck up my life.
believe these lies, they'll lead you to a path in harm's way!

"Jack Knife"

"Jack Knife"


Somebody tell me how to get to Saint Maria.
She has something gonna save my soul.
She gives it to me, she don't care what I done wrong.
As the sun begins to set I know that can't make it on my own.

No longer grounded I retreat to my demise.
I'm running strong with these lovesick eyes.
And the voodoo that you bring is chasing me through my dreams.
You got me lookin' over my shoulder all day long.

This ain't a love song,
this is a car crash and they're playin' my song.

So don't come looking for me.
I ain't the one you want and I won't be around
to see how you get along when you don't get what you want.
Little child your eyes broke all your pretty things inside.

She got something gonna save my soul.
She's got black angels to carry me away, so take me away...

So don't come looking for me.
I ain't the one you want and I won't be around
to see how you get along when you don't get what you want.
Little child your eyes broke all your pretty things inside.
Inside.
Inside.
Inside.

"Jackie O"

"Jackie O"


A warm Dallas breeze floats naked through the air
As a million hungry faces watch the king
And his parade on show for the world to see
Prime time America nineteen sixty three
And you were by his side
I still remember pictures, that look on your face
The king had been forsaken and his country died
In three seconds that would last an eternity

O Jackie-O
I wonder what you could be thinking
Now your mixed up little head has been left alone
In a world so cold
Just a foot note in history book full of lies

You're such a good girl
Keep smiling make 'em happy
All is well in the land of make believe
As soon as the bullet left the chamber
On that calm November day
You knew the world would never be the same
The killer in us all
Just victims of ourselves looking for the perfect death
Trigger happy patriots running from ourselves
You knew it would never be the same again

O Jackie-O I wonder what you're thinking
Now you've been left here all on your own
In this land a world of make believe
You get back what was taken from you and go moving on

O Jackie-O
I wonder what you could be thinking
Now your mixed up little head has been left alone
In a world so cold
Just a foot note in history book full of lies

"Just Like Me"

"Just Like Me"


I want your misery
I want you to be what I hate in me
I make you twist your mind
so you can be just like me
you got a lot that you try to hide
you need a hand
to reach deep inside of you
I don't think I like you now
but I will when you're someone else
Metamorphosize wanna make you ride inside my eyes
I wanna make you play those games with me
this perversion waits inside for you
tortured visions of yourself here on display
gotta moment and I'll tell a lie
gotta secret that can't deny
I don't want somebody else
wanna make you destroy yourself
then I want you to take it out on me
I don't care about the things that make us different
I'm gonna make you change
and you'll see yet
that I can do all this cuz I got no self esteem
I'm not gonna tell you lies
I'm unhealthy and dysfunctional
it's no surprise that I can't wait to make you
just like me

"Katatonia"

"Katatonia"


Impoverished and bleeding
hope here something fast receding
dead light holocaust
I check this body in tonight
cross my heart and hope to die
to never leave this place alive
I'm burning right in front of you
I break myself against you I lay still

Your penetrating glances
dead stop all my vain advances
to another place
where I can truly be myself
respirators kicked on high
life support keeps me alive
to forgive I will never do
one last kiss is all I need from

(You ride)
Salvation going under
(They say)
They say I won't survive you
I wish I never knew you
your name is katatonia

(You ride)
Salvation going under
(They say)
They say I won't survive you
(Your name)
Your name is sanctuary
I call you katatonia

"Kill Your Scene"

"Kill Your Scene"


You weigh your sadness well, it fits the color of your world.
Though you have nothing to complain about,
there's always something wrong.
Break neck lies romanticize these empty headed alibies,
the drama you create amuses you and only you.
So take all these lies and be real again.
It's all not so bad.
I see you under there, hiding down underneath your eyes.
Show yourself, and kill your scene, you are your worst enemy.
Only doin' what you do cause you know someone is there to clap a hand.
Your conviction lies in words that paint the world your promise land.
And all you wanna be is somethin' I don't see.
Now all you gotta do is get the fuck away.
Push, before my thoughts pull me down.
All you are is what you've disdained.
