See how we've taken all this sweet time to decide
Watered that tree, watched it grow another 50 feet high
Together, shared and strong
Step right in
Forever is not that long
Let's begin
Feel this connection like the earth underneath me
I feel this connection if I'm here, there, or anywhere I stand
Feels right, all poured down
We'll see it through
The future, the here and now
Me and you
And it's sweeping our childhood away
Hand in hand, we set off on our own
But Heaven's not ours, and truth could be a game we play
Strip the branches bare, but the tree stands on its own
See how much we've grown
Pleasure takes its toll, people lose control everyday
Hypocrites like us deserve a little trust along the way
Together, shared and strong, we try again
Forever is not that long
Let's begin
I had a tree
in the dream hills where my childhood lay
and I'd go there in the wide long days
and my tree would listen to all that I'd say
and the sun was shinging brightly and the sky was smiling
then one day when the world had put me in its tomb
and my life was just an empty room
I went to my tree and I sat there in my gloom
and the light was fading dimly and the sky ws crying
then my tree bent its branches low down to the ground
and its green leaves shrouded up my mind
and I left the world somewhere behind
and I didn not know what I would find
and the sun was shining brightly and the sky was smiling
[Power of calling]
He sat below it and listen in,
Listen in to all what it told
...And at the time come that unknown
Come from nowhere and behind no one
His lips whisper unknown words
Never heard and delusive
Words as a cares enchanting
Arousal, beauty and emotion
Like silver breeze stroke
That lovesome and silent words
Melodies sounds out of his lips
And people listen to the unknown
But yet so imminent
And then...
...Then like dazed, everyone
Old mans and children, woman and mans
Went away, no one knows where
Went away for ever, without return
And nobody already see them
Only he sat along under it
And listen in to all what it tell
The tree tell its story along
The tree tell its story along
I am driving a horse among shadows, flashes of storm, roaring in space,
it is raining blood, knee- deep wading in the mourn,
butterfly of ruin waved its wings, lit up clouds dropped down to ground,
Death is smiling and dancing on graves, like furious,
obsessed with her desire for life, grievous rage ...
Ici, les arbres vivent dans l`air de la nuit
Et oui les branches vacillent
Mystre des phignies ici danse l`esprit
Dans l`air de la nuit, cheri dis moi oui
Sous les arbres de la nuit
So did you ever wonder about the tree
How it can hold such innocent mystery
Well, did you ever wonder how it would be
To be a holy moment, to be a tree
Ici, danse l`espirit dans l'air de la nuit
Et oui les branches vacillent
Mystre des phignies
So did you ever wonder about the tree
How it can hold such radiant mystery
Well, did you ever wonder how it would be
Feelings fall from my fingertips
Like wax dripping down candlesticks
Express my love yes I did my best
It drags me back to this emptiness
Once again I find myself by myself
Never thought I'd miss your touch so much
LONLINESS BURNS AT ME LIKE A BLOWTORCH
Time moves on but it passes slow
I lost a love I thought I'd never know
Sometimes I wish we never met
And I regret that I can't forget
Never thought I'd miss your touch so much
Sick of using you just to ease my pain
LONINESS BURNS AT ME LIKE A BLOWTORCH
I shall remain as you fade away on me
Sick of using you just to ease my pain
I want to burn clean in the cold blue flame
One day I woke up
and I opened my eyes
I saw things I never saw before
One day I woke up
I visualized
I saw things for how they really were
Blind Me Blind Blind Me
One morning I woke up
with the gift of sight
I saw things I never saw before
One morning I woke up
in the middle of a fight
I saw them treat my mom like a whore
Blind me Blind Blind me
When I was young
I opened my eyes
I saw my country lie
I saw my God die
In my desperate search for honesty
All I saw were their lies and treachery
have driven me Blind
When I drink I think of her, she's so far away but gets closer
A hopeless dream, yeah I know but she had to let me go
When I'm asleep she comes to me, dancing her way through waves of guillotines
A hopeless dream, yeah I know but she had to let me go
COLD AND ALONE COLD AND ALONE COLD AND ALONE AGAIN
In memories she kisses me so tenderly I gotta save myself and set my soul free
COLD AND ALONE AGAIN
So I lie to myself say I'll find somebody else
But there's no girl in this world that could replace you
I used to have fun in the summer sun
but now I have to run for the shade
I used to have fun in the noon day sun
but now its got me headed for an early grave
Like a Deathstar rising in the horizon
you better beware of the tricks
the sunlight plays
I'm not lying out I'll be hiding out
in these last days of ultraviolet rays
The sun has set on my summer Forever
Tick tock goes the clock down to the wire
Out of the frying pan and into the fire

In the damp cramp horrors of my wretched brain there lurk these little creature sleeches drive me insane My brain My pain Why is it your need? Why is it your feed? why don't you let it be My Brain I can feel them ripping, tearing, shredding in my head I'm going to rip my eyeballs out and I'll probably end up dead my brain my brain(chorus) I'm not responsible for half the things I do Like killing my whole family and my neighbors dog, too my brain my brain
Mexican beer on a Sunday afternoon I got no lime and I got no sunshine
Under New England skies I was born and raised
Raise my glass to the skies to my friends that are in the graves
Got no time to pretend no no never again
It's all about your family and friends
From the beginning until the end
Living in Boston mass do what you gotta do
If you don't like the weather here then just you wait a few
Seek and you shall find ask and you shall receive
It's all about your matter of mind
It's all what you want to believe
MEXICAN BEER ON A SUNDAY AFTERNOON
I GOT NO LIME AND I GOT NO SUNSHINE
Praise for the sun the sunshine above
I have to come to terms
with the true definition of I
I have to re-evaluate
myself with myself
my own proof of worth
for nobody else
If the Truth be known
I'll always be alone
to think I thought
I knew myself
Truth-let the truth be know
The pain of being my worst enemy
can no longer be endured
the pollution must end
Time to be my best friend
Time to be reborn
in a value of my own
If the Truth be known
I'll always be alone
Truth-let the truth be known
Truth
This Land is your Land
this Land is my Land
from California
to the Boston Harbor
from the Redwood forest
to the Gulf stream waters
this Land was made for you and me
As I went rambling that ribbon of highway
I saw above me a polluted skyway
I saw below me a congested highway
This Land was made for you and me
On Sunday morning in the shadow of the steeple
by the welfare office I see my people
They stood there hungry, I stood there screaming
This Land was made for you and me
Nobody out there can ever stop me
when I go walking that Freedom highway
Nobody out there could ever make me turn
This Land was made for you and me
As I went walking I saw a sign there
and on the sign it
said no trespassing
But on the other side it said nothing
that side was made for you and me!
The only real way is the highway
Paid my dues singing the blues
not gonna bitch about
the holes in my shoes
Play all night
work all day
travel around the country because I love to play
The only real way is the highway
I get to get on the stage
I get to bend the bars of my vocal range
travel across the land
making payments on the van
We're gonna rock as hard as we physically can
Fuck #1 we play it all for fun
the harder it gets
is because the harder it comes
not better than the rest
just put ourselves to the test
putting the suck back into success
the only real way is the highway
I think I can
Its what you make it man
You get out of it what you put in
Its what you make it!
Save the whales- whales are cool - they swim in schools - save the whale their size is large - their number is small- heed the call - save the whale captain ahab - deserved his fate - its not too late- save the whales extinction means dead forever save the whale sand you'll save yourselves do it just like Jonah - I'm devoted whole - save the whales - save your soul save the whales

I'm a victim I'm a victim
I'm a victim of a victimless crime
VOC victim of chance
Victim of circumstance
Victim of society that
holds its false ideology so damn high
In a meat market mentality where
everything is bought and sold
Refuse to buy the capital lie
Refuse to buy the capital lie
We're all Victims
Reaching for the bible

Fucked up fundamentally, you're
fucked up
Leaning on your church

There's a white devil among us
There's a white devil in office
Your blind faith has left unforgiven
Wielding your religion
as if it were a weapon
Fucked up fundamentally, you're
fucked up
Lining your pockets
you deceived a believing flock
There's a white devil among us
walking on the right side
White god with blond hair and blue eyes
is a god of lies
Jesus didn't look like that
You know he didn't look like that
I hold all you right wing christians
in suspicion
There's a white devil among us
There's a white devil in office
Devouring all the stupid fucks

I will not give up
I will not give in
You can take it all
away from me
I will start again
I will not give up
I will not give in
You can take everything I got but not what I believe in
You can break my back
But I will bear it
You can break my heart
But not my spirit
Make a break from the everyday
Make a break from the everyday
Break free from your daily routine
Break free
Break free
Don't call me poor
Don't call me useless
You don't know what my dreams are
You don't know
You will never know.

In a temporary lapse of sanity
You've been subdued by your own false sense of security
You're a prisoner of your own privilege
You fail to see the bars for what they are
NOW YOU'VE BEEN SUBDUED
You live your life exactly how they tell it
You agree no matter how they sell it
An unconscious effort to remain subdued
NOW YOU'VE BEEN SUBDUED
Complain about your life as you waste away
Never flying free from that golden cage
You're a prisoner of your own privilege
You fail to see the bars for what they are, come on
The Statue of Liberty used to stand forsomething

If She could speak,

The Statue of Liberty used to
stand for something
but now She stands alone?

Falling across forgotten landscapes
Transcending all time and space
Well I've read from this book before but through different lips
Turned by different fingertips
I never learn the lesson until I learn the lesson too late I fold and I start again
Rise up and over and collapsing in
MY SOUL IS RECYCLABLE
Dying and rotting away
To wake up and start a brand new day
Like a bottle brought back then thrown away
My soul's in the process in the cycle of change
MY SOUL IS RECYCLABLE
I've learned these lessons before but I'll be damned
I have forgotten them
I've read from this book before
I walk alone through the valley of death yet
Never for a moment do I second guess
I can't afford to live in doubt
Faith in myself if nothing else
Some things I'll never forget
I refuse to lose my life to regret
I've paid for the mistakes I've made
I've lived to pay my debts
To live and learn my life returned
I don't really care about the bridges burned
walked those burning embers
That's something I'll always remember
I was beginning to fear
Fear I fear happiness
I was beginning to fear
Fear I fear Happiness
I've grown so comfortable with all my anger and my madness
But it keeps me running on in fear of finding my own gladness
Up and down and round and round
I fall back into emptiness
You make me feel so damn real
You make me feel what's really real
Deep within my beating heart
I was given a brand new start, Yeah!
I was beginning to fear Fear I fear happiness
I've grown so comfortable with all my anger and my madness
But it keeps me running on in fear of finding my own gladness
Up and down and round and round I fall back into emptiness
Can you help me find my way or am I doomed to this eternal madness
For I fear my only fear is that I fear my happiness
What's it take to make you wake up and open your eyes How many beat on the street by the heat before you realize that a violent crime at any time can never be endorsed what's the difference for a cop's excessive use of force? Question abuse question authority question abuse question abuse of authority and police's use of abuse what you see on your TV us not your true reality conditioned by the system to to brutality don't use your rights you lose your rights and sell all self defenses now they have you where they want and are gonna beat you senseless force-coward! You have the right to remain silent anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law but there's a flaw cause that long arm is armed with a clawforce- coerced- force- Coward question

Little pieces of colored paper
Feel its grip and its will to shape ya
Kneel before the greed
that's gonna rape ya
Call collect to the undertaker
little pieces of colored paper
valued more than its very maker
It is your god
It is your king
It puts a price on everything
Watch the color of our collar
when you steal the almighty dollar
The color of money is the color of greed
That is a shade of green I do not need
It plagues men's hearts
poisons their souls
They make the money
but its in control
You face the facts
then you'd know that its true
its got more of a right to exist than you do
Put a price on your life
My pockets are empty
but my heart is full
and I don't need money
to give my life value
You can buy the land
but you can't buy the Sky
There are some things in this world
that your money can't buy
THESE DREAMS ARE FREE

Lost my baby in the Cemetery
Lost my baby in the Cemetery
Driving around with no place to go
How many times has this happened before
Feelings of madness feelings of pain
Don't think I'll ever be the same
Lost my baby in the Cemetery, lost my baby
in the Cemetery
In the graveyard I can't find her grave
Her name got wiped away
Polluted by progress stealing my dreams
Wiping clean my memories
Her epitaph got erased I can't find her resting place
Her name got wiped away, now I have no place to pray
Lost my baby in the Cemetery, lost my baby in the Cemetery
Acid rain wipes the names right off graves
Respect for the living Respect for the dead
Lost my baby in the Cemetery, lost my
baby in the Cemetery
Her epitaph got erased, I can't find her resting place
Her name got wiped away, now I have no place to pray
Lost my baby in the Cemetery, got no place to pray
Lost my baby in the Cemetery, her name got wiped away
Lost my baby in the Cemetery
Lost my baby in the Cemetery

Largest land mammal
on the face of the plant
faces extinction
this very minute
Taken from the Land
by the Hand of Man
largest land mammal
faces extinction
in our lifetime
What are we gonna do about it?
Absolutely-- Nothing
Absolute--Extinction
Taken from the Land
by the Hands of Man
cutting a hole
through the heart of the jungle
shrewn with body parts
Look Ma, top of the food chain
whose the king of the road
Has my kind gone so blind
or are we just Insane
look Ma, top of the food chain
Whose the king of the jungle NOW?
Largest land mammal
murdered for jewelry
stolen for ivory
I curse your trophies
Largest land mammal
Taken from the Land
by the Hands of Man
I'll stop singing, when I'm swinging
From a Tree with a noose around my neck
When they cut me down, and put me in the ground
Will you come and pay me your last respects
But until then put me on your play list
cuz I'm living with a death wish
In it for a lifetime, not for the dollar sign
You know it means so much to me
Part of a bigger whole, that you can't control
Feel us growing, beneath your feet
But until then, put me on your play list
Cuz I'm living with a death wish
I'm living with a Death Wish
I'm a Death Wish man
Death Wish
I've got to get things done
before my permanent vacation
I'm always running
running out of time
Is it true that haste makes waste
I can't afford to hesitate
I've got a Deadline on my Lifetime
Tick tock goes the clock
and its never ever gonna stop
Until it falls off the wall
and we all fall to a crawl
Is it true that haste makes waste
I can't afford to hesitate
I've got a Deadline on my Lifetime
A body in motion stays in motion
a body at rest will stay at rest
No matter how severe
I'm gonna persevere
I'm always running in a circle, within myself
If its true that haste makes waste
I can't afford to hesitate
Deadline
A body in motion stays in motion
a body at rest will stay at rest
A body in motion...
Any dog can bark Why, that is why making love I like creating love i like to create
All for one
One for all
Untied we stand
Divided we fall
All of us or none of us
Everyone or None
All of us or none of us at all
All for one
One for all
United we stand,
divided we fall
One people, one race, one life
It's time we get it right
What the hell are we fighting for
Red in the face for a race war
Take a good look at our history
Shouldn't really come as a mystery
Take a good look back at our past
It's not about race
It's all about class
Are not all people created equal in the eyes of God
Are not all people in the world today find themselves at desperate odds
Freedom in a land where
Freedom isn't free
What's it going to take to make
the people see
The enemy isn't you or me
All for one
One for all
United we stand
Divided we fall
All of us or none of us
Everyone or none
All of us or none of us
All of us or none of us at all
See them falling hear them calling it's everywhere it's everyplace
Time's at hand it's time to stand I'm firmly put face to face
Blood and bone I'm not alone bare my heart bear my soul
Battle's here the battle's clear
Overthrow all control
Overthrow all control
People will have a lot to fear
When there's no oxygen in the atmosphere
Everyone will die while they're holding their breath
And we'll all swim in our own polluted death
YOU MUST UNDERSTAND
WE MUST SAVE THE LAND
WE'RE NOT JUST A BAND
WE'LL KILL FOR THE LAND
Greenhouse effect was anticipated
But everybody sat around watched and waited
When the enviable came to be
They all begged for God's mercy
Better come up with a final solution
And figure a way to deal with all this deadly pollution
We need some action and some action soon
Or we're certifying our certain doom
False, Fake, You're fucking 2faced
Fake motherfuckers try to fade me
So you think you have it made in the shade
Cuz now you're getting paid yeah now you're getting laid
You're making ducats by the buckets
But I say fuck it, you're just another puppet
You're a puppet but who pulls the strings
When you're up on the stage and you dance sing
I'm coming on the level
You're dancing with the devil
Just to play the role you'd sell your very soul
Fake motherfuckers try to fade me, fake motherfuckers are gonna fade
Your whole culture circles like a vulture in the skies
Believing all the lies that are televised
A whole nation hypnotized
You live your life like a T.V. show
You don't even know you're a traitor
Chalk up another fake motherfucker
Don't be a believer in the system or the leaders
Because it should come as no surprise
A smile in disguise, the Government lies
A forked tongue on everyone that runs
Make no mistake the politicians are fake
But listen up! Here's the real deal
Never ever fake what you feel
I'll never ever fake what I feel
I don't know what you've been told
About the Viking probe
Or the photos of
Martian pyramids
The evidence is obvious that there exists another form of
Now on the red planet
Why won't they just admit?
Why won't they let us know?
What the photos show
The evidence is obvious that there exists another form of
Intelligence but mankind just afraid to face themselves
The Great Galactic Ghoul
Has made us look like fools
And in a perfect flight
Smashed a satellite
MATE THE APE, WITH THE ALIEN
THE SEED, THE SERPENT, IN THE GARDEN
IS ALL HUMANITY JUST A BLASPHEMY
MADE IN THE IMAGE OF SOMETHING ODD
I know it sounds bizarre
But there's a face on mars
Why do they hide the fact?
Of alien artifact
While NASA still denies alien life survives
Why won't they let us know?
What the photos show
The evidence is obvious that there exists another form of
Intelligence but mankind just afraid to face themselves with the truth
Out in the depths of space
There lives an ancient race
Did our missing link
Build the Martian Sphinx
Times in my life I felt I was dying
Trials in my life I am still surviving
Like a phoenix rising up from its
own flames
I've been resurrected rise in my own name
I must face the facts,
acknowledge all I've known
across the tracks and back
finally I have grown
I must face the truth,
acknowledge all I've seen
with every fiber of my heart and soul and being
Content of Character
constant test of will
Pass or fail this test
I will sacrifice
Help me celebrate
this precious life
as the battle rages
I will carry on
True to my convictions
I shall overcome
Content of Character
a constant test of my will
I've got a burning seed
Burning deep in me
The war is over but not for me
It will never be
Burning Burning Burning Burning Burning
Burning Burning
The answer my friend
is blowing in the wind
The answer is blowing in the wind
For my country I risked my life
I made the sacrifice
The war is over but not for me
I still pay the price
Contamination is not confirmed
Yet my love still gets burned
And my child is born deformed
What did I do to ever deserve this
I'm still suffering from my service
Once I marched for war,
well I'm not marching anymore
The answer my friend is blowing in the wind
The answer is blowing in the wind
Burning Burning Burning Burning Seed
We got a message for every one
Stand your ground or be over run
Desperate times calls for desperate measures
And by all means necessary it would be my pleasure
A BILLION BRAINWASHED OR BOUGHT OFF
THEY CAN'T CATCH ME CUZ I WON'TBE CAUGHT
THEY CAN'T BUY ME OUT I WON'T BE BOUGHT
A BILLION BRAINWASHED OR BOUGHT OFF
Can't believe what's televised
Selling products selling lies
Don't be blinded by what you buy
You can't put a price on your life so don't even try
Lining their pockets and turning backs
I'm getting ready for the big payback
Poverty stricken but I'm not quitting
People call me a rock star
People call me a rock star but they don't know me I don't know who they are
I'm just a blue collar rock n' roller
I dress like a thief I feel like a soldier
I'm on the ladder getting madder and madder
cuz rung after rung my song goes unsung
I sweat and toil over a bucket of oil
I see my chances dim and my blood begins to boil
I'm on the jobsite from morning to night and it feels like I'm wasting my life
That's how I feel every single day
Wasting my life as the radio plays
I'm just a blue collar rock n roller
STARS BELONG IN THE SKY CELEBRITY WORSHIP MUST DIE
Too many in this country worship the celebrity
Living out the lies before their own lives
If everyone was treated like a member of their favorite band it would be a happier land
Why worship the celebrity when they're no better than you or me
Celebrity worship must die
The stars belong in the sky
Live life, live life like you want to live life
Like you want to live life, right
Don't take life; don't take your life for granted
Because it'll get wasted
All life is sacred
All life, all life has a right to live
So give it all you got to give
And don't live so negative
Death comes; death comes to us one and all
I've seen the writing on the wall
Just like the setting sun
Death falls on everyone
NOW YOUR MEMORIES
Sentenced to life and so I'm going to live it
Strive to survive as long as I'm in it
Blessed with life but life is so brief
From a limb of a tree it falls like a leaf
Life is a gift but we take it for granted
Don't appreciate it until someone gets planted
Live like live like you want to live life, right
NOW YOU'RE MEMORIES
Life will survive life look into my eyes
NOW YOU'RE GONE BUT YOU'RE NOT FORGOTTEN
YOU LIVE ON IN MY MEMORIES
A voice of reason in all this insanity
So the lock him yeah they lock him up
In maximum security
They lock him up to shut him up
Found guilty in Philly for shooting a cop
Evidence of innocence but charges don't drop
No matter what's right or wrong
They've been after him for too damn wrong
YOU GET IN THE WAY YOU GET WASTED
IF YOU GET IN THE WAY
A Black Panther at the age of fifteen
Born to rage against the racist machine
Laying down the facts what it's like to be black
Not treated like a human being
A love for life is something that he proved
Wrote about John Africa
He wrote about Move
Wrote about the Philly cops
And the bomb they dropped
Burned down a city block
YOU GET IN THE WAY YOU GET WASTED
IF YOU GET IN THE WAY
You can cage my body but my spirit flies free
Your bars made of steel can not hold what feel
Living in this country well I've got pray
Because they crucify a Christ every single day
Sabo let the heads roll
Death row what a brother know
So quick to execute before they give a new trial
That's capitol punishment American style
They've done it once they'll do it again
They'll execute an innocent man
Passing out in parking lots
living low sweating tents
waking up passing out
completely fucking spent
Living low because I'll chance
Living low but I made a thousand dance
Beat me down in the cell but I won't break
Beat me down in the cell but I won't break
I learned not to make the same mistakes
Beat me down in the cell but I won't break
No I won't break I won't break no
Got you in my rear view
pull me over flashing blues
ask me for some honesty
use it to arrest me
Living low because I'll chance
Living low but I made a thousand dance
Beat me down in the cell but I won't break
Beat me down in the cell but I won't break
They can chase me from state to state to state
Beat me down in the cell but I won't break
I won't break I won't
Try to crush my spirit
Can't even get near it
NO I won't break I won't break NO
When you got a gun, you can do as you please
spraying your bullets like it was a disease
People packing pieces like its going out of business
Evolutionary process survival of the sickest
Your right to bear I've got to bear that right
well I reserve my right not to get shot tonight
I've got no gun in this wild wild west
Well I'll rest in peace when the pieces rest
Rat a tat tat it happens just like that
don't even know your shot
until you got one in the back
Now your just another victim
now you're just another stat
Now your dead your dead
you ain't never coming back
>From channel to channel from station to station
TV is the drug that has numbed the nation
You're so horrified but you're so fascinated
so the violence just keeps on escalating
PRAISE THE AMMUNITION
A piece without a puzzle a puzzle with no peace
I reach for my revolver I reach for my release
Mass murder in America
a sad but true tradition
I'm armed to the teeth for my own salvation
I'm a twisted man with a twisted grip
and I got the whole world at my finger tip
A pistol packing preacher in a gun toting nation
pass the Lord and praise the ammunition
I'M AN ANGRY MAN WITH A GUN IN MY HAND
Reply to my tree across ya medow we a'nt togetter cause were opposite leaf
Tags were not so close to me tree me and ya togetter would my desine [ing]
Were close but far apart were both opposite leaf tag tag tags oh yeah your
Maple I'm sugar it's maple sugar but saddly were an opposite par oh
Yeehaw
Walking across this Texas desert with
the sun beating on his back
Carries a cross
these burning sands
without leaving a single track
Sing a song a six pack
and praise the lord for your salvation
Second coming up and running from the
federal government's intervention
Blood on the X of Texas
Blood on the X that Texas spilt
Blood on the X of Texas
Blood in the house that David built
Messiah on a six string sings a song
that's in demand
Lone gunman in the Lone Star State
hunts his fellow man
Deep in the heart of Texas the bullet
finds its mark
Deep in the heart of Texas his head
gets blown apart
Blood on the X of Texas like a cross hair
Y'll remember the Alamo but don't you forget about Waco
Blood on the X of Texas
Blood on the X that Texas spilt
Blood on the X of Texas
Blood in the house that David built
Blood on the X of Texas
I got good at fucking up because I practice all the time
I got stupid and I got stuck I got left without a dime
I left early and I showed up late
Everybody's upset because I made them all wait
I never paid it too much mind
Until I turned around and noticed it was all the time
NO MATTER HOW SEVERE I'M GONNA PERSEVERE
I got chased by the cops I got caught and I got beat up
I caught a flashlight across my skull
I was handcuffed to the wall
I got busted I got beat but from my beliefs
I would not retreat
Thrown in the holding cell
Well they want me to rat
They can rot in hell
NO MATTER HOW SEVERE, I'M GONNA PERSEVERE
Stuck on stupid
Tired of feeling always down it's time I turned my life around
Turned my life around no matter how severe
I got good at getting back I'm not afraid to speak my mind
I got good at keeping my cool because I know how to let things slide
I got good at making mistakes
I've lucked out and I've had my bad breaks
They got me backed up against the wall
The harder they come yes the harder they fall
The struggle goes on the struggle is long
But it's always darkest before the dawn
Good things come to those who wait
Well I'm all fucked up but I'm coming straight
As I look out over this beautiful land
I follow my eyes up to the bright blue sky
I think to myself when all this goes
that'll be the day that I want to die
From where I stand I see a devastated land
devastation of an entire Nation
The line is drawn and its all clear cut
the damage is done with one last chop
The engines roar as the cars roll by
and I just want to die
I'm just singing the same old song
its going, its going, its Gone
I'm just SICK of the Same Old Song
As I look out over this beautiful land
I throw my arms up at the bright blue sky
I know in my heart when all this goes
that'll be the day that I want to die
but until the day I lay my body to rest
I'll put my life and death to the test
and fight for this Land for which I stand
right down to my very last breath.
Ever see the tree, ever feel yourself
Wrapped around the wind
Let go of your desire
Desire will suffer in the send
suffer the will, will of the child
the child will born on our death
Child will be born on our death
Oh let the child be born
and be brought to the sun
As desire will come and suffer the will, will
will of the child (repeat 2 Times)
Everything is so beautiful
Everything is so simple now
Colors weave into symbols of life
symbols of life they weave into the wind
Oh weary child rest your head
Very soon the colors come alive
And the child will be born
born on our death
child will be born on our death
Oh let the child be born
and be brought to the sun
As the symbols of life
weave into the wind ( Repeat 1 time)
Because everything is simple now
Nothing has ever changed
The colors all weave with life
Let the weary child be born
Because everything is simple now
Nothing has ever changed
The colors all weave with life
as we move into the wind

I watch this through one clear eye, I can't climb these walls of acceptance, this is my everything. I'm gasping to see you smile, these words fall through lips far from innocent these wounds self inflicted. I tried. In this room the air feels ugly, can a tree grow strong yet deny it's branches. I watch this through one clear eye, feel the strength rise behind me, this becomes our everything. Grey fills my sight, in shame still I try, to say I understand, I can't hide everything I am. Pain this feeling inside. Insane these walls made of pride. A blade cuts like the tongue. What I claim, no better than anyone. Understanding is everything. I watch this through one clear eye, waiting for tears to dry. All this hatred clouds my sight, beyond darkness lies dawns clear light..... through a
It's too late to say good-bye
Now I'm drowning in your eyes
I'm drowning
Back to you
I know the way these things begin
See how flesh presses the skin
I'm bursting
Without you
Love you like in poetry
This urge hinders me to flee
I'm climbing your tree
Allured in your seed
I'm climbing your tree
Where I dare to see
To me you are all the party
For love and love only
I´m riving
Apart from you
Close to what's eternal
A place where we together fall
Promise me a peace I never knew
Love you like in poetry
This urge hinders me to flee
I'm climbing your tree
Where I may not cede
I'm climbing your tree
Where I dare to see
No one ever knew the gold
Of the burette in your hair
How write your dreams down to a letter
Underneath a pale light
Like lovers often will
I'll go back to you again
A thousand years i've stood here
I'll stand a thousand more
Seen kingdoms rise and fall
Seen pestilence and war
How swift are your little lives
How swiftly you forget
My roots are deep in your forefathers's bones
My head in the air that you breath
When you freeze i submit your fire
When you're hot come and seek shadow beneath
Tree - tall as a mountain
Older than fathers of kings of men
Stood here and watched while your heroes died
I am your memory... I am incarnate life
My branches you cradle
I watched the rise of man
While you wished upon the stars
I never left the land
And you've hung villians from my arms
Nailed prophets high on my chest
In your mind you may be the master
But in the soil we both shall rest
Tree -
Yoo've convinced yourselves you were cast out of Eden
But you left willingly in pride
Now when you freeze in your castles of stone
Do you think you were right
Tree -
How fragile are your lives
How fragile your dreams
And you shall ache with thirst
In eroded landscapes( there's no escape)
Last species alone... In a field of stone
But listen mankind... What i tell is true
From a buried seed a forest will be
You may destroy
But you cannot undo
It's time to brood
Put up the walls of sound
And practice all the finer points
Of falling down
I'll put aside
The calculated eyes
The even tempered smile
Diffuse again
Given time to discuss these points with
Outside help I could still these friends in my
Heading out to the trees I see myself
I hide in green
Recall the faded dreams
Collide my scope divides
And leaves the team
Beyond the veil
I watch the line extend
A helping hand withdraws
The line again
Given time to discuss these points with
Outside help I could still these friends in my
Heading out to the trees I see myself
Is that an angel on it's side
Next to the postman drifting by
I once had a dream that I could fly
Into the trees
It's time to brood
Put up the walls of sound
And practice all the finer points
Of falling down
I'll put aside
The calculated eyes
The even tempered smile
Upon this mount I fand a tree, wat gyf agayne my soule to me!
