Go

Oh, please don't go out on me
Don't go on me now
Never acted up before
Don't go on me now
I swear I never took it for granted
Just thought of it now
Suppose I abused you
Just passing it on

Go, fuck

Once fastened servile
Now your getting sharp
Moving oh so swiftly
With such disarm
I pulled the covers over him
Shoulda' pulled the alarm
Turned to my nemesis
A fool, not a fucking god

No, time, suck, my 

Please, don't go on me
Don't go on me
Don't go on me
Don't go on me

Suck, blood, touch, please, tunnel vision, tuck, time, see

Please, don't go on me...

Please, don't you want me?...

Animal

  
One, two, three, four, five against one
Five, five, against one
Said one, two, three, four, five against one
Five, five, five, five, five against one

Torture from you to me
Abducted from the street

I'd rather be
I'd rather be with
I'd rather be with an animal

Why would you wanna hurt me?
So frightened of your pain

I'd rather be
I'd rather be with
I'd rather be with an animal
I'd rather be
I'd rather be
I'd rather be with an animal

I'd rather be
I'd rather be with
I'd rather be with an animal
I'd rather be
I'd rather be
I'd rather be with an animal

Said one, two, three, four, five against one
Five, five, five, five, five against one
One, two, three, four, five against one
Five, five, five, five, five against one

Daughter

You guys ready?

Alone
Listless
Breakfast table in an otherwise empty room
A young girl
Violins
Center of her own attention
Mother reads aloud 
Child tries to understand it
Tries to make her proud

The shades go down
It's in her head
Painted room
Can't deny there's something wrong

Don't call me daughter
Not fit to
The picture kept will remind me
Don't call me daughter
Not fit to
The picture kept will remind me
Don't call me

She holds the hand that holds her down
She will rise above

Don't call me daughter
Not fit to
The picture kept will remind me
Don't call me daughter
Not fit to be
The picture kept will remind me

Don't call me daughter
Not fit to
The picture kept will remind me
Don't call me daughter
Not fit to be
The picture kept will remind me
Don't call me

The shades go down...
The shades go, go, go

Glorified G

Got a gun
'Fact I got two
Thats ok man, cuz I love God

Glorified version of a pellet gun
Feels so manly
When armed

Glorified version of a pellet gun
Glorified version of a pellet gun
Glorified version of a pellet gun
Glorified version of a pellet gun

Don't think
Dumb is strength
Never shot at a living thing

Glorified version of a pellet gun
Feels so manly 
When armed

Always leave it loaded

Life comes
I can feel your heart
Kindred to be an American
Ooh, life comes, I can feel your heart through your neck
Life comes, I can feel your heart through your neck
Like some, I can steal your heart from your neck

Dissident

She nursed him there
Ooh, over a night
I wasn't so sure
She wanted him to stay
What to say? 
What to say?

But soon she was down
Soon he was low
At a quarter past
A holy no
She had to turn around

When she couldn't hold, oh, she folded
A dissident is here
Escape is never the safest path
Oh, a dissident
A dissident is here

And to this day she's glided on
Always home but so far away
Like a word misplaced
Nothing said, what a waste
When she had contact with the conflict
There was meaning
But she sold him to the state
She had to turn around

When she couldn't hold, she folded
A dissident is here
Escape is never the safest path
Oh, a dissident
A dissident is here

She gave him away
When she couldn't hold, no, she folded
A dissident is here
Escape is never the safest path
Oh, a dissident
A dissident is here

Couldn't hold on
She couldn't hold
Oh, she folded
A dissident is here

Escape is never the safest place
Oh, a dissident is here

W.M.A.

He won the lottery when he was born
Took his mother's white breast to his tongue

Trained like dogs
Color and smell
Walks by me to get to him

Police man...

He won the lottery by being born
Big hand slapped a white male American

Do no wrong
So clean cut
Dirty his hands
It comes right off

Police man...

Police stopped my brother again...

Police man...

Jesus greets me 
Looks just like me

Do no wrong
So clean cut
Dirty his hands
It comes right off

Police man...
Police stopped my brother again...
All my pieces, set me free...
Human devices, set me free...

Blood

Spin me 'round
Roll me over
Fuckin' circus

Stab it down
One way needle
Pull so slowly

Drains and spills
Soaks the pages
Fills their sponges

It's my blood...

Painted big
Turn it into
One of his enemies

It's my blood...

Stab it down
Fill the pages 
Suck my life out
Maker of my enemies
Take
My
Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck

Rearviewmirror

I took a drive today
Time to emancipate

I guess it was the beatings
Made me wise

I'm not about to give thanks
Or apologize

I couldn't breath
Holdin' me down
Hand on my face
Pushed to the ground

Enmity gaged
United by fear
'Sposed to endure
What I could not forgive

I seemed to look away
Wounds in the mirror waved
It wasn't my surface
Most defiled

Head at your feet
Fool to your crown
Fist on my plate
Swallowed it down

Enmity gaged
United by fear
Tried to endure
What I could not forgive

Saw things...
Clearer...
Once you.. 
Were in my
Rearviewmirror

I gather speed
From you fucking with me
Once and for all
I'm far away
I hardly believe
Finally the shades are raised

Saw things so much clearer...
Once you, once you..
Rearviewmirror...

Rats

They don't eat
Don't sleep
They don't feed
They don't seethe
Bare their gums when they moan and squeak
Lick the dirt off a larger ones feet
They don't push
Don't crowd
Congregate until they're much too loud
Fuck to procreate til they are dead
Drink the blood of their so called best friend

They don't scurry when something bigger comes their way
Don't pack themselves together and run as one
Don't shit where they're not supposed to
Don't take whats not their's
They don't compare

They don't scam
Don't fight
Don't oppress an equals given rights
Starve the poor so they can be well fed
Line their holes with the dead ones breed

They don't scurry when something bigger comes their way
Don't pack themselves together and run as one
Don't shit where they're not supposed to
Don't take whats not theirs
They don't compare

They don't scurry when something bigger comes their way
Don't pack themselves together and run as one
Don't shit where they're not supposed to
Don't take whats not their's

They don't compare
Rats
They don't compare
Rats
They don't compare

Ben, the two of us need look no more...

Elderly Woman Behind The
Counter In A Small Town

 
I seem to recognize your face
Haunting familiar yet
I can't seem to place it
Cannot find the candle of thought
To light your name
Lifetimes are catching up with me

All these changes taking place
I wish I'd seen the place
But no one's ever taken me

Hearts and thought they fade, fade away...

I swear I recognize your breath
Memories like fingerprints are slowly raising
Me you wouldn't recall
For I'm not my former
It's hard when your stuck upon the shelf

I changed by not changing at all
Small town predicts my fate
Perhaps that's what no one wants to see

I just want to scream hello
My god, it's been so long
Never dreamed you'd return
But now here you are
And here I am
Hearts and thoughts they fade away

Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away...

Leash

Troubled souls unite
We got ourselves tonight, oh

I am fuel, you are friends
We got the means to make amends
I am lost, I'm no guide
But I'm by your side
I am right by your side, yeah

Young lover I stand
It was their idea
I proved to be a man
Take my fucking hand
It was their idea
I proved to be a man

Will myself to find a home
A home within myself
We will find a way
We will find our place

Drop the leash
Drop the leash
Get outta' my fuckin' face
Drop the leash
Drop the leash
Get outta' my fuckin' face
Drop the leash
Drop the leash
Get outta' my fuckin.. face
Drop the leash
Drop the leash
Drop the leash
We are young
Drop the leash
We are young
Get outta' my fuckin' face
Drop the leash
Drop the leash
Get outta' my, my
Drop the leash
Delight
Delight
Delight in our youth

Get outta' my fuckin face

Indifference

I will light the match this morning
So I won't be alone
Watch as she lies silent
For soon light will be gone
Oh, I will stand arms outstretched
Pretend I'm free to roam
Oh, I will make my way through one more day in hell

How much difference does it make?
How much difference does it make?

I will hold the candle
'Til it burns up my arm
Oh, I'll keep takin' punches
'Til their will grows tired
Oh, I will stare the sun down
Until my eyes go blind
Hey, I won't change direction
And I won't change my mind

How much difference does it make?
Mmm, how much difference does it make?

I'll swallow poison until I grow immune
I will scream my lungs out
'Til it fills this room

How much difference
How much difference
How much difference does it make?
How much difference does it make?
