- American Dreams
I'm watching your system spoil
can't wash my hands of the blood and the oil
can't take this poison as mine and hide behind dollar signs
the world can keep spinning without me
leave me far behind
blind
blinded by - justice
blinded by justice and false hopes of American dreams
- Believe
what's left to believe?
look to the streets, watch the burning bring a city to it's knees
can't stop this disease of addiction
can't stop the bleeding in the city that bleeds
one eye open in the night
devils want to take what's yours, take your life by the street lights
but don't let them succeed
don't listen to their words, don't you ever believe
- Born To Die
Been put to the test once again
Time after time
Time I can't rewind
I can't reverse
Look into the future all I see is dirt because
Life's been unfair in my past
I can't get past this feeling that
My breath is getting short
- Dead Inside
From time to time you slip through the cracks of my mind / I try but I just can’t keep my hard feelings inside / it’s safe to say too many times I’ve walked away dead inside / I try but I just can’t keep my hard feelings inside / I said I wouldn’t react / I said I wouldn’t go back to that place / I can’t control my rage / I turned my back on that and then I ran so far away / Feelings are hard for me.
- Disconnect
Got to disconnect
Pick up the pieces of the life that I have left
And rebuild myself
To depend on no one else
How can you stand alone
When leaning on a crutch is all you've ever known
You've got to
- Draw The Line
Don't lean on me
Got to do my own thing
I've seen
Too many problems in this world
To be held back
No sympathy
I've been there before
- Eye Hand
The body is real although it never dies
I see the light in the dark through 7 eyes
I see the pain unfurl
Put my ear to the ground, I hear the secrets of the world
When your soul gets tired, put your body to sleep
REST IN PEACE
Biting the hand that feeds
All powerful being brings life to its knees
- half a person
Bear witness to the birth of
Broken promises
As the truth escapes
An honest man breaks
And I'm always getting worse
At keeping words
Can't erase the things
That my anger brings
- Jail
Sink, swim - the choices are that
I've been to the bottom and I ain't going back
Sink, swim - the choice is yours
I keep my head above water searching for something more
Times (times are tough) but I've had enough
(I'm) I'm through with giving up
Times (times are tough) but I've had enough
- Outcast
The books they read don't say much to me
The streets are talking so you better believe
I'm going to listen
And take advantage of every chance I'm given
I won't be sad
Never look back at what I don't have
I've been outcast
- Pleased To Meet You
I don't want to be followed by sheep
Don't need the respect of the mentally weak
I have no interest in leading the blind
But walking amongst those people with open minds because I'm -
TUI, as long as I'm still alive
I live to spite you
- Reality Unfolds
Reality unfolds before my eyes
I've spent 21 years living in lies
21 years that I've paid
For mistakes that I never made
And I'm finding there's no hope for love
Devil in my ear tell me what I want to hear
He said this place is cold, better do as you're told
- Stay Cold
Lost concepts of reality
Make loose the screws that secure my sanity
I take a look at my life
What it’s all about
The answers bring me pain
And I want out
I pulled you close because the world failed us both
- Still Cold
Still cold
Realest of the real
Understand how I feel
Untruest of the untrue
Live their lives just like you do
All by myself
All out of hope
- Time Waits
Listen to me boy
The future's bright
What they say is true
But don't lose sight
Time won't wait for you
Can't let the hands of time
Slip right through these hands of mine
- Too True
Too true
What can I do?
All your dreams have been stolen from you
Don't know what I've been living for
Every day my breath gets shorter
Life is short and I've lived life deceived
Now I got to live my life for me
Please believe, I'm not a slave to no man
- True Love
True love, set fire to my soul
Can't keep living this life alone
No love
Make me lose control
Like your love, sweet love that I let go
I'm gone because you pushed me away
After all those times I said that I would never stray
- Victimized
The American dream is a lie
That's why I say I was born to die
I can't be forced into your perfect world
I can't coincide
Quit pointing fingers
Uncle Sam wants you pulling triggers
At your fellow man for an unknown cause
But I don't think I can
- World I Hate
Still searching
trying to find God in all this hurting
secrets of the world collide
I leave the past behind
but it's been so long now that I can't go without
all the loving, all the touching
miss your beautiful face
- You And I
It’s clear that you fear the truth, you live in fantasy
That’s not for me
I live my life everyday like it was my last
While you live in the past
Walk through life like anybody owes you shit
You’re going to regret it
You've wasted years running in fear
And now its clear
