I'm not growing up
I'm just burning out
And I stepped in line to walk amongst the dead

Apathy has rained on me
Now I'm feeling like a soggy dream
So close to drowing but I don't mind
I have lived in this mental cave
Throwing my emotions in the grave
Hell, who needs them anyway

Having a Blast
I'm taking all you down with me
Explosives duct taped to my spine
Nothing's gonna change my mind
I won't listen to anyone's last words
There's nothing left for you to say
Soon you'll be dead anyway

Well, no one is getting out alive
This time I've really lost my mind and I don't care
So close your eyes and kiss yourself goodbye
And think about the time you spent and what they've ment
To me it's nothing

I'm losing all my happiness
The happiness you pinned on me
Loneliness still comforts me
My anger dwells inside of me
I'm taking it all out on you
And all the shit you put me through

Do you ever think back to another time
Did it bring you so down that you thought you lost your mind?
Do you ever want to lead a long ways of distruction
And mow down any bullshit that comforts you
Do you ever build up all the small things in your head
To make one problem that adds up to nothing

Chump
I don't know you but I think I hate you
You're the reason for my misery
Strange, how you've become my biggest enemy
I have never even seen your face

Maybe it's just jealousy
Mixed up with a violent mind
A circumstance that doesn't make much sense
Or maybe I'm just dumb

You're the cloud hanging out over my head
Hail comes crashing down welting my face
Magic man, egocentric plastic man
Yet you still got one over on me

Longview
Sit around and watch the tube but nothing's on
I change the channel for an hour or two
Twiddle my thumb just for a bit
I'm sick of all the same old shit
In a house with unlocked doors
And I'm fucking lazy

Bite my lip and close my eyes
Take me away to paradise
I'm so damn bored I'm going to blind!!!
And I smell like shit

Peel me off from this velcro seat and get me moving
I sure as hell can't do it by myself
I'm feeling like a dog in heat
Barred indoors from the summer street
I lock the door to my own cell
And I lost the key

I got no motivation
Where is my motivation
No time for motivation
Smoking my inspiration
I sit around and watch the phone but no one's calling
Call me pathetic, call me what you will
My mother says to get a job
But she don't like the one she's got
When masturbations lost its fun
You're fucking breaking

Bite my lip and close my eyes
Take me away to paradise
I'm so damn bored and I'm going to blind
And lonliness has to suffice
Bite my lip and close my eyes
Slipping away to paradise
Some say quit or I'll go blind
But it's just a myth

Welcome to Paradise
Dear mother, can you hear me whining
It's been three whole weeks since I have left your home
This sudden fear has left me trembling
'Cause now it seems that I am out here on my own
And I'm feeling so alone

Pay attention to the cracked streets and the broken homes
Some call it slums and some call it nice
I want to take you through the waste land
That I like to call my home
Welcome to paradise

A gunshot rings out at the station
Another urchin snaps and left dead on his own
It makes me wonder why I'm still here
For some strange reasons it's now feeling like my home
And I'm never gonna go

Dear mother, can you hear me laughing
It's been six whole months since I have left your home
It makes me wonder why I'm still here
For some strange reason it's now feeling like my home
And I'm never gonna go

Pulling Teeth
I'm all busted up
Broken bones and nasty cuts
Accidents will happen
But this time I can't get up
She comes to check on me
Making sure I'm on my knees
After all she's the one
Who put me inthis state

Is she ultra violent?
Is she disturbed?
I better tell her I love her
Before she does it all over again
OH GOD, SHE'S KILLING ME!!!

For now I lie around
Hell that's all I cen really do
She takes good care of me
Just keep saying my love is true

Looking out my window for someone that's passing by
No one knows I'm locked in here
All I do is cry

^^-Return to Top-^^

Basket Case
Do you have the time
To listen to me whine
About nothing and everything all at once
I am one of those
Melodramatic fools
Neurotic to the bone no doubt about it

Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid?
I'm just stoned

I went to a shrink
To analyze my dreams
She says it's lack of sex that's bringing me down
I went to a whore
He said my life is a bore
And quit my whining 'cause it's bringing her down

Grasping to control
So you better hold on

^^-Return to Top-^^

She
She, she screams in silence
A sullen riot penetrating through her mind
Waiting for a sign
To smash the silence with the brick of self control

Are you locked up in a world
That's been planned out for you?
Are you feeling like a social tool without a use?
Scream at me until my ears bleed
I'm taking heed just for you

She, she's figured out
That all her doubts are someone else's point of view
Waking up this time
To smash the silence with the brick of self control

Sassafras Roots
Roaming 'round your house
Wasting your time
No obligation, just
Wasting your time
So why are you alone?
Wasting your time
When you could be with me
Wasting your time

I'm a waste like you
With nothing else to do
May I waste your time, too?

Warding off regrets
Wasting your time
Smoking cigarettes
Wasting your time
I'm just a parasite
Wasting your time
Applying myself to
Wasting your time

When I Come Around
I heard you crying loud
All the way across town
You've been searching for that someone
And it's me out on the prowl
As you sit around feeling sorry for yourself

Don't get lonely now
And dry your whining eyes
I'm just roaming for the moment
Sleazin' my back yard so don't get
Uptight you been thinking about ditching me

No time to search the world around
'Cause you know where I'll be found
When I come around

I heard it all before
So don't knock down my door
I'm a loser and a user
So i don't need no accuser
To slag me down because I know I'm right

So go do what you like
Make sure you do it wise
You may find out that youeself
Doubt means nothing was ever there
You can't go forcing something
If it's just not right

Coming Clean
Seventeen and strung out on confusion
Trapped inside a roll of disillusion
I found out what it takes to be a man
Now mom and dad will never understand

Secrets collecting dust but never forget
Skeltons come to life in my closet
I found out what it takes to be a man
Now mom and dad will never understand
What's happening to me

Seventeen and coming clean for the first time
I finally figured out myself for the first time
I found out what it takes to be a man
Now mom and dad will never understand
What's happened to me

Emenius Sleepus
I saw my friend the other day
And I dont' know
Exactly just what he became
It goes to show
It wasn't long ago
And I was just like you
And now I think I'm sick
And I wanna go home

How have I been how have you been
It's been so long
What have you done with all your time
And what went wrong
I knew you back when
And you...you knew me
And now I think you're sick
I wanna go home

Anybody ever say no?
Ever tell you that you weren't right?
Where did all the little kid go?
Did you lose it in a hateful fight?
And you know it's true

^^-Return to Top-^^

In the End
All brawn and no brains
And all those nice things
Yeah, you finally got what you want
Someone to look good with
And light your cigarette
Is this what you really want?

I figured out that you're all about
And I don't think I like what I see
Sooooooo...
I hope I won't be there
In the end if you come around

How long will he last
Before he's in a creep in the past
And you're alone once again?
Will you pop up again
And be my "special friend" 'till the end
And when will that be?

F.O.D. (Fuck Off and Die)
Something's on my mind
It's been for quite some time
This time I'm on to you
So where the other face?
The face I heard before
Your head trips boring me

Let's nuke the pridge we torched 2,000 times before
This time we'll blast it all to hell
I've heard this burning in my guts now for so long
My belly's aching now to say...

Struck down in a rut
Of dislogic and smut
A side of you well hid
When it's all said and done
It's real and it's been fun
But was it all real fun?

You're just a fuck
I can't explain it
'Cause I think you suck
I'm taking pride
In telling you to fuck off and die

I had this burning in my guts now for so long
My belly's aching now to say
I'm taking pleasure in the doubts
That I've passed to you
So listen up as you bite this

You're just a fuck
I can't explain it
'Cause I think you suck
I'm taking pride
In telling you to fuck off and die
Good niiiiiiiiiiiiight...

All By Myself
I was alone
I was all by myself
No was looking
I was thinking of you
Yeah, did I mention
I was all by myself
All by myself
All by myself
All by myself

I went to your house
But no one was there
I went to your room
I was all by myself

You and me had
Such wonderful time
I was all by myself
All by myself...
