Time for reward it's been so hard just living here
Transcend the self remove the sight ending the fear
Escape the fault widen the gap, kill off the facts
That are gonna hurt my mind
That are gonna stain my soul
Another worldly device, that may ruin me
That are gonna ruin my goals
That are gonna take its toll
Another worldly device, another worldly release
Take back myself from this here self
The ones that you do must hold some truth
To what you should I will perceive the will persists
I must omit what's gonna hurt my mind
What's gonna stain my soul
Another worldly device that may ruin me
Not gonna block my goals
Not gonna take its toll, another worldly device
Another worldly device more wrong advice
Another broken promise, oh
what's gonna hurt my mind
What's gonna stain my soul
Another worldly device that may ruin me
Not gonna block my goals
Not gonna take its toll, another worldly device
Go ahead and rise above
See how far you get on top
Held down just to impair you
We know who's ahead of the game
You know who'll get the blame
You're in the grip of the controller
Do you really want it all back?
See how far you get on top
Held down just to impair you
It's the fear that you can't do right
See how you lose in your life
Cut down, they will impale you
Can you really get it on track?
You tried to make it all stop
Time will tell how much they denied you
You just got burnt by the controller
You just got burnt, the controller
You'll never know how to react
Your sucked to the very last drop
Time will tell what has been denied you
Are you clear in your mind and sight?
Are you clear right out of your head?
Angry at the things that have failed you
So you want to get it all back
You tried to make it all last
Tied down to control you
You just got burnt by the controller
You just got burnt, the controller
Go ahead and rise above
See how far you get on top
Held down just to impair you
We know who's ahead of the game
You know who'll get the blame
You're in the grip of the controller
We know who's ahead of the game
You know who'll get the blame
You're in the grip of the controller, controller
You just got burnt by the controller
You just got burnt
You just got burnt by the controller
You just got burnt
You just got burnt by the controller
You just got burnt
You just got burnt by the controller
Diggin' for answers you fall in a hole
Lessons of nonsense shall cast the first stone
Pontifical preachings past now quick to forget 'em
I'm depending on no one I distrust and oppose
Prove you, prove you wrong
You can bet on it, I'll prove you wrong
Prove you, prove you wrong
Depend on it, I'll prove you wrong
Quest for solutions
You ain't gonna get one here
Why waste my breath upon the ears of the deaf man
Skeptic acceptance caution
Fraudulent cause
Dependence on no one best distrust and oppose
Pointless
Hitman's got no doubt about
Position in the work place
A matter of investment
Ridding human excess
Dealing stocks and bonds of blood
Shotgun dividends
But you hold a gun
That's smoking
So pointless
Keep pushing
Keep shooting
So pointless
Head full o' bullets
A soul that's been spent
That be the pension
Bizness dealt with lead
Kickbacks, cutbacks
They all stab you in the back
The bloody palms
Primed for greasing
So pointless
Keep pushing
Keep shooting
So pointless
[Incomprehensible]
So pointless
Keep pushing
It's pointless
just sit down and talk to death
it's known to teach you time again a something
not of this earth that something not of this earth.
12 o'clock time for bed say no to waking up again
feeling not of this earth that's not of this
earth brings all comfort to no reason never
know where you go what if the intangible
that something to earth not of earth
that something all comfort no reason some reason
you try to take all the challenge out of all of our lives
you make it all too predictable with your white wash lives you see,
you got to show me the torment and all the despair all those bloodless bullet holes
are more than we can bear with the plastic coverings and
the cut-rate display no renewal of the pleasurable
with no image of decay you go for the stability and what do you get some real
vivid misfortune a cause now an effect clean sweep
News of senseless agression
Journalistic sensation, quick reasons to mention
Paraded so soulfully
Stated so righteously
One vision to convey
Nothing more to say
The cause - no way to deny it
Ignore it it won't disappear
No way to deny it
The wrongs - no way to deny them
Ignore them they won't disappear
No way to deny it
News eating the nation
Editorialization (quick reasons to mention)
Concluded too easily
Repeated in history
Someone's got to pay
Nothing more to say
News of constant deception
Censored reception
Quick reasons to mention
Soudbites - all too clear
Left rights!
The end is near!
Someone's got to pay
Nothing more to say
Didn't have the money round to buy a Morry Thou
Been around and seen a lot to shake me anyhow
Begged and borrowed sometimes I admit I even stole
But the worst crime that I ever did was play in rock and roll
But the money's no good
Just get a grip on yourself
But the money's no good
Just get a grip on yourself
Suffering convictions on a two-way stretch inside
The air in here is pretty thin, I think I'll go outside
Commited for insanity and crimes against the soul
The worst crime that I ever did was play some rock and roll
But the money's no good
Just get a grip on yourself
But the money's no good
Just get a grip on yourself
And you should known
Now I find from week to week the sentence sticking fast
Turn the corner, rub my eyes and hope the world will last
Stranger from another planet welcome to our hole
Just strap on your guitar and we'll play some rock and roll
But the money's no good
Just get a grip on yourself
But the money's no good
Just get a grip on yourself
And you should know
Seeing Their Children, Caught Up In The Latest Fad
Their Parents Are Worried, Thinking They've Gone Bad
Everything's The Same, Nothing Has Changed
Everything's The Same
Nothing Has Changed; Changes Tomorrow
Taking Their Axes, They're Turning An Amber Red
Making A Noise Able To Wake The Dead.
Everything's The Same, Nothing Has Changed
Everything's The Same
Nothing Has Changed At All, Changed In Our World
Looking Through Windows Only To See The Rain.
The Way They Are Moving, Ground Zero Attack My Brain

What a crying shame
Talk about pass the buck
No thought of a change
Go out and get your gun
Thought we've had out fill
Of that they've had enough
All of those with good will
Let the rest run amok
They won't come clean
So we're bound to lose
Don't even have a clue
No respect for you, dignity for whom
One more outnumbered
Bleeding hearts that humble
To find some shelter
From a bloody shower
Another cause to blame
Another soul to judge
They won't come clean
So we're bound to lose
Don't even have a clue
No respect for you, dignity for whom
One more outnumbered
Bleeding hearts that humble
To find some shelter
From a bloody shower
From a bloody shower
From a bloody shower
From a bloody shower
From a bloody shower
From a bloody shower
One more outnumbered
One more outnumbered
One more outnumbered

I comprehend these laws with no particulars
The trappings of it all can never give in turn
A concept of counsel of the inner wealth
Perception of the dark all in you stealth
A sublime success controlled abstinence
Sublime success unworldly happiness
Sublime success controlled abstinence
Sublime success unworldly happiness
A pointed eloquence in its sublimity
Precision eminence of all solemnity
[Incomprehensible] for the inner wealth
[Incomprehensible]
A necessary call, call
A necessary call, call
Sublime success, controlled abstinence
Sublime success, unworldly happiness
I comprehend these laws with no particulars
The trappings of it all can never give in turn
Sublime success don't need abstinence
You choose a path
Close to collapse
Stretched to the limit
Falling apart
The light turns back
Where you choose to pass
Finally into oblivion
Steady decline
A quirk of fate
Can't stop this wait
But it took
a quirk of fate
To ignite the spark
innocence and youth
Youth and innocence
Takes so little
To tear it apart
Tear it apart
Steady decline
nothing breeds more contempt for this world
than memories now formed every moment
a new seed is grown to no reason the
trouble unfolds for the trials of today
i'm no jury really don't care how you feel the pleasant notion of miraculous change
drifts into multiple jeers you want the good life
you break your back you snap your fingers
you snap your neck seconds drip thru my hands
washed of moments unborn all the spaces
between bleed a tribute to a sacrament
never exposed a message to the forces,
I've no pity don't know how thankful to feel expectations
of my daily bread gives me the hunger to steal
It's a reason why I got control
It's the treason, better off alone
Got an answer; individual creed
Got advantage, don't really need 'em
Shouldn't have bothered
Reaching out to fools
Shouldn't have bothered
They're the patients, condition's worse
Got the patience, it's in the works
Their impressions are such a waste
My investment is my own fate
Shouldn't have bothered
Reaching out to fools
Shouldn't have bothered
Soon I'll give up
Shouldn't have bothered
With someone like you, no
Bothered, bothered
Sickened By The Action
The Senseless Abuse
Hatred The Reaction
Now Put It To Use!
The Treatments, The Testimony Of Motives
Strategy, Manipulation, Tormented Minds
Maneuvers Capitalize On Innocence
Power Wielding Deeds Crushing My Head
Sickened By The Action
The Senseless Abuse
Hatred The Reaction
Now Put It To Use!
Exploitive, Revengeful Rage Emerging
Struck Are Hidden Chords, Stricken By The Crimes
Self Control And Conscience Now Dormant
The Dark Urge Fulfilled, The Abuse Is Here To Stay
[Repeat Chorus]
Cold suns, lowering highs.
Accents on the deprived.
Solvency. Well. it hurts like a bitch.
Close shave, you may have grown rich.
Blast off, waiting on line.
Sales pitch makes up your mind.
You got the right to nothing.
The right to nothingness
Right to something.
The right to nothingness
Well, all of your goals and what
you've become
Surrender now! You're the
satisfied one.
You got the right to nothing.
The right to nothingness
Right to something.

Confusions born here every day
Spinning circles upon my brain
No idea which way to go
Roam around without a home
So fucking lost, invalidated
So brought down demasculated
All the joy just disappeared
Another bed full of tears
Hope dissolved, degenerated
The negative has penetrated
No wish for sympathy
It's all a mystery to me
Coming apart at the seams
Wanna be alone for the rest of my years
Don't come inside
Leave it to me to go on unfortunately
Unfortunately
Confusions born here every day
Spinning circles upon my brain
No idea which way to go
Roam around without a home
All my wishes evaporated
Insecurities saturated
So many flaws reappeared
The wrong way I tend to steer
Coming apart at the seams
Wanna be alone for the rest of my years
Don't come inside
Leave it to me to go on unfortunately
Unconditional soon to be damned
An individual high in demand
Institutions fill the begging hands
Clean the ashes where we used to stand
Uninvited with open arms
Complacent walls keeping out all harm
I'm bound, unbound, unwound
Unconditional
Unconditional bad for good
Clutching glad hand misunderstood
A tight cold grip, eager to pull
Playing for the hate team
Shut out, cut out of the mainstream
If you like to play victim
You play your part so well
That's how we'll treat you
If it suits you so well
Hey now, it's all turning
Watch your world burn
Hey now, it's all burning
Watch your world turn
Playing on the hate team
Shut out, cut out of the mainstream
Playing for the hate team
Hate team
Hey now, it's all burning
Watch your world turn
Hey now, it's all turning
Watch your world burn
If you never felt decent
And you feel rather mean
Don't wear your hurt so pathetic
Let your mind set you free, yeah
Playin' on the hate team
Shut out, cut out of the mainstream
Whose fist is this anyway?
Whose fist is this anyway?
Whose fist is this anyway?

Whose fist is this anyway?
Whose fist is this anyway?
so thrilled we got you now you can't break the game so glad,
accept the choice so glad you learned the ropes to try so far to go
the end you'll never know you have nothing
to follow the message a lost cause
and who cares about the lesson no question of the loss
Exposing all the frauds,
those heroes for a cause.
They're holding some key,
confusing identities.
The lost and found
Lost in a crowd
Look what they've found
They're faking in the buck.
Purveyors of so much luck.
Upholding a true scope:
Flag waving ego.
The lost and found
Lost in a crowd
Look what they've found
Look Up At The Sun

Look, listen, learn
Listen
All I've been taught
All that confused me
Irrelevant thoughts
All just to use me
For society's will
Denied my own person
But there's still a will
For my very own lesson
Now I know nothing
That my mind can't create
Now they'll know something
Of the mind they create
Look, listen, learn
It's time they learn
[Incomprehensible]
Rite to my will
Rite to my impulse
Territorial rites
Right to your downfall
Look, listen
Look, listen, learn
[Instrumental]

More conquest more proud division
Another rape for a strong man
It scares you into submission
Now's the time to face the home rule
More conquest more proud division
Another rape for a strong man
It scares you into submission
Now's the time to face the home rule
It's our find, never give it back
Our kind shut 'em out
Shine a light bring 'em out
Take no flight never give in
More conquest more proud division
Another rape for a strong man
It scares you into submission
Now's the time to face the home rule
All alone never give it
In hold tight, to what you know
Birthright, gift of pride
Look down upon your foe
More conquest more proud division
Another rape for a strong man
It scares you into submission
Now's the time to face the home rule
Now's the time to face the home rule
Now's the time to face the home rule
You wanna know something
Well I'd give you hell if I could
Still I try so hard not to care
Sold on the excess, chasing the tail to the cage
Joke's on you, you're sliding, of not far to go
You wanna know something
I'd give you hell if I could
You've not far to go
I'd give you hell if I could
I swear you've know far to go
Some are so sad
They pray the bad go away
I itch and sore and still I can't complain
Singing have gun will travel
If all looks so stupid to me
Seconds stutter backward
And not far to go
Fire Ignites

The flag of free enterprise fronts as you fend
In the battlefield of bureaucracy the trenches you shall tend
In these days of adversity, the hassle never ends.
The nemesis of fortitude, holds a gun to your head!
On your knees! Kneel! Say your prayers!
For dear life! For dear life! For dear life! For dear life!
You're holding on for dear life.
Show some humility to the powers that be.
A gesture to mortality your blind liberty.
On your knees! Kneel! Say your prayers!
For dear life! For dear life! For dear life! For dear life!
You're holding on for dear life!

You make the right moves, I beg to differ
Rather be a fool and see things clearer.
You found a quick way to fill your pocket.
That's the way in a world that's lost it
To fall in line
It's meaningless mindlessness.
I beg to differ
Disharmony amongst all our brothers.
That's okay, be true to our grudges.
No desire to walk beside you.
Nothing positive when forced upon you.
(So fall in me) Just fall in line
It's meaningless, mindlessness.
Why should I devalue my position?
Do I need to be a part of the fold?
Don't need any sort of reason
I'll just go and follow my own path
Take note of this, anyone can miss
Take note of this, you can walk with the best
Take note of this, anyone can trip
Take note of this, you can walk with the best
Take note of this, anyone can trip
Take note of this, you can walk with the best
Walking with the finest
Why should I sell myself short?
Should I lower my ideals and standards?
Must I settle for hand me downs?
I deserve the best my mind can do, I can do
Take note of this, anyone can trip
Take note of this, you can walk with the best
Take note of this, anyone can miss
Take note of this, you can walk with the best
Walking with the finest, walking alone
Oh yeah
I think I know which road to go
It leads up to the very top
I don't need your sense of direction
You can just stumble on and on
I think I know which road to go
Leads up to the very top
I don't need your sense of direction
You can just stumble on and on
Take note of this, anyone can miss
Take this for trip, anyone can miss
Take note of this, you can walk with the best
Take note of this, anyone can miss
Take note of this, you can walk with the best
