What do I see?
I'll see what you tell me you to see
What do I believe?
You will tell me what to believe
nothing to hear, to think, to say, not a thing
nothing to hear, to think, to say, not a thing
nothing to hear, to think, to say, not a thing
Not till you say
Not till you say
If I said no, would that make me a criminal?
If I break down the wall, am I a criminal?
I'll never be you, you'll never be me, no in-between
I'll never be you, you'll never be me, no in-between
I'll never be you, you'll never be me, no in-between
Head in the mud
Your head's in the mud
It's in the mud
Don't look like you, I'm a criminal
Don’t think like you, I'm a criminal
Don't pray like you, I'm a criminal
Don't hate like you, so I'm a criminal
Don't look like you, I'm a criminal
Don’t think like you, I'm a criminal
Don't pray like you, I'm a criminal
Don't hate like you, so I'm a criminal
If I won't join your war, am I a criminal?
If I won't kill for your cause, am I a criminal?
Now I can see, yeah I can see, I don't believe
Now I can see, yeah I can see, I don't believe
Now I can see, yeah I can see, I don't believe
Head's out of the mud
Head's out of the mud
Head's out of the.....
start a war, you're a criminal
kill for a cause, then you are the criminal

Old Man Radio
03:46
|

Tuning in the stereo,
The old man he has got to go
Before he fades away
Heard it on the radio,
thought it was a talk back show
But I found it had nothing to say
Before too long,
we will play our song and you'll be left to pay
Because everything,
will come tumbling,
right before you know it
You're hoping for the great escape,
we're planning for the shit to hit you in the face
And all the while we are searching for the master plan
While paying for all the sins of our kin
like some dead weight on our shoulders
Because before too long it'll all break
even though we are strong, you drag along
like some dead weight on our shoulders……
Because after all
It will all lead to nought
you just wait and see
I know we're going to hit the heights
I just hope that we can climb back down when the time comes
And all the while we are searching for the master plan
While paying for all the sins of our kin
like some dead weight on our shoulders
Because before too long it'll all break
even though we are strong, you drag along
like some dead weight on our shoulders……

A Day Fades

The great debate
Do we live now or wait till we fade away
With grace…..but I’m thinking, thinking…….
What if…this is all that we’re allowed?
With nothing…. left after the now
You- think -you -know -what’s-coming
So you can sit safe and sound…And
Wait for the day to fade away…….
Watch it fade away
My own debate
To seize the day or watch it slip away
Stake my claim
While I’m blinking…drinking
What can I… find in such a short time?
Here and now…it’s all I have
I-don’t-know-what’s-coming
So I won’t sit safe and sound….And
Wait for the day to fade away…….
Watch it fade away
While I search for something I’ll never find
I-won’t-know-what’s-coming
So I could never sit about so safe and sound
Not wait for the day to fade away
Not let it fade away….
I’ll take the day before I fade away………

Hey there kid, how about we play a little game
First of all though you got to tell us what’s your age
Baby Baby
That’s alright, kind of fine, so something we could use
Now let’s see exactly what you can do
Baby Baby Baby
Hey yeah, that's OK, but we think you could do more
Because you're so young and cute, but you never left the front door
Baby Baby
You got to move and groove just exactly as we say
Promise you if you do, you'll be well on the way
Baby Baby Baby
I know your story
You want glory
Been a wild crazy ride, had you floating in the air
But now your time is up and there's nobody that cares
Baby Baby
Had our way with the slate when it was so fresh and clean
So now off you go, on your own, never again will you be a
Baby Baby Baby
I know your story
You want glory
To live the dream
Stay on your knees

All In My Head
03:36
|

What should I think
When I could just sink
Don't love, won't hate
run-down, supermolecule emotion
Can't swim, barely floating
want to drown, but I just can't go down
I don't know if you'll like what you'll find
...in my head
Broken dreams, evil thoughts, stupid words
...in my head
Why do I break
When all I did was fake
Can't win, hate losing,
finishing, absolutely nothing
Hymen, low man, no better than a mindless violator
I don't think that you'll like what you'll find
...in my head
Broken dreams, evil thoughts, stupid words
...in my head
Why did I keep on trying
When I should have just expired
Screaming, reeling
jabber jaw, clapper-claw attack
Class clown, hide the frown
just shut up, shut up, shut up
They don't want to hear about it, no one wants to hear about it…..
I don't know if you'll like what you'll find
...in my head
Battered sense / Broken dreams, evil thoughts, stupid words
...in my head

Running With Blood
04:22
|

All you know right now – it's really nothing
With still so much to learn – so think it over
The more I know – The more I need to learn
While my blood is still warm
My head's still running wild
And my blood's still like a child's
All you have right now – it's really nothing
With not much left to burn – you're starting fires
Will we ever learn – I don't think so
So we just keep burning on…...
My head's still running wild
And my blood's still like a child's
Although my blood still runs and flows
I know that I'll run out of time
Before long my blood is going to turn cold
I know it's a matter of time

Naked
04:24

Everyone is naked
No one is safe
You'd think that after all these years of covering up
We'd all know that it's fake
Everyone is beautiful
Until they shed their skin
But once the layers all come flying off
We're as ugly as sin
But I just don't know if you'll understand...what it means
It's an act of consequence
And not just a mistake
You could strip me down till the conscience saves my ass
Baring all my shame
But I just don't know if you'll understand
What it means to tear off the mask and the gag
When I hit you with these words and I sting you with these eyes
Because I come on so strong that I'll just blow your mind away…
Everything is dangerous
Nothing is safe
Even after all our modern ways
Anything can break
Because I just don't know if you'll understand
What it means to tear off the mask and the gag
When I hit you with these words and I sting you with these eyes
Because I come on so strong that I'll just blow your mind away…
Everyone is naked
Everyone is naked
Everyone is naked
