I hate saying it, but I'm saying it, for so many years I've been praying it. You hate
hearing it, cause you're fearing it, but wait another minute, this ain't nearly it. I
can't believe it , can you believe it, you keep destroying everything there is. I
can't conceive it can you conceive it, if so why don't you tell me what it is?
I hate seeing it, but I'm seeing it, too much blood and pain, can't be agreeing it.
I hate feeling it, but i'm feeling it, so much hate inside, must be releaing it. you
kill my brother and then another, it's just a daily routine and you don't bother.
You're so fucked, cause you don't even see, if you don't value life, you don't
deserve to be !
Come on ! Where's your self esteem?
Fuck you ! How could you be so mean?
Wise up
You gave birth to a baby-boy, he's your cutie-pie, never would you wanna see him cry,
or try, to adapt to a world that's false - my boy is gonna stand tall. But just like
you he's gonna gonna have to go through a million of questions and no answers will
do, 'cause from that moment that you're thrown into this world of light and
coldness, what you see is never what you get and what you get is never what you saw,
before. It takes a strong mind not to be blind to the ways of mankind - keep an open
eye and your head up high - and open your mind!
It ain't what you see- it's the way that you see it!
It ain't what you see- It's the way that you see it!
It ain't what you do- it's the way that you do it!
It ain't what you do- it's the way you do it!
Let the route to the goal be your goal, put your body and soul into the route to
your goal. Cause if you don't like what you're doing while you're at it, see, you're
gonna die like a famous celebrity. Gun to your head, boom boom, then you're dead -
man you never saw what you really had. When all the talent in the world don't make
you feel good, you only think that you're misunderstood, something's ain't going
quite the way it should, so do yourself a favor, take a second look. Your mind has
made you blind to the ways of mankind, so sit back, relax, take a look inside- and
open your mind!
It ain't what you see- it's the way that you see it!
It ain't what you see- It's the way that you see it!
It ain't what you do- it's the way that you do it!
It ain't what you do- it's the way you do it!
Do it!
Ev'ry individual is a world, ev'ry individual is an individual world! So if you like
someone, you like a world. And if you hate someone, you hate a world. And if you lose
someone, you've lost a world. And if you kill someone, you kill a world! Tell me that
you never knew, that this is the kind of thing you never do. Cause we all see the
things that we see the way that they are, not the way that they should be!
It ain't what you see- it's the way that you see it!
It ain't what you see- It's the way that you see it!
It ain't what you do- it's the way that you do it!
It ain't what you do- it's the way you do it!
I never wanted this in the first place, had I known better, I wouldn't have lost my face, 'cause
I'm not a sucker
to the chances of disgrace, but I wouldn't be here, wouldn't fill this space.
But can it justify to be a split-tongue-guy with a split personality, musicly, lyricly, can't you
see ev'rrything that I'm about derives around honesty... honesty!
I wasn't made, don't even like the trade, sometimes you've gotta pay in order to get paid, I
paid my dues, now I don't wanna choose, 'cause ev'rything I stood for is ev'rything I lose... so I
lose... don't make me choose...!
Haunted by the ghosts I called upon... he was haunted!
I'm not a two headed man, a monster in a can, not a Jekyl and Hyde, I guess I never had a
plan, what this would turn into; but now I begin to understand all the shit, that the others have
been through, I'm not a living dead, with a zipper in my head... open me up to find out where
I'm at, 'cause I'm my own creation, my Frankenstein, so check the situation, 'cause it's about
time, that someone understood what I'm going through... I'm living through my worst ever
dream come through, I'm living through my worst ever dream come true... so come true... my
with ev'ry corner of my mind..
with ev'ry moment of my time..
with all the strength i'll ever own..
i'll never make it all alone.....
i believe you...but i can't see you...
you're ev'ry step i'll ever take...
`cause you're more...than i can say...
you're more...than i can feel...
you're more...than i can say...you're all to me!
my ev'ry heart inside of me..
my ev'ry breath my ev'ry me..
you're ev'ry thing i really own...
i'd never make it all alone...
i believe you...but i can't feel you...
you're ev'ry move i'll ever make
`cause you're more...than i can say...
you're more...than i can feel...
you're more...than i can say...you're all to me!
i believe you..though i don't see you...
you're ev'ry thing that's on my mind...
i will seek you...i will speak you...
and ev'rything will work out right...so right...!!!
`cause you're more...than i can say...
you're more...than i can feel...
you're more...than i can say...you're all to me!
you're more...
so much more...
you're so much more...
you're so much more...to me!
it's like this and like that whenever you can. you try to take away the rest of my
pride, man. you try to take away everything that isn't yours, you try to take
control, you try to be so sure. you're like a vacuum cleaner, a million times
meaner, sucking up me instead of dirt, but i see ya. come over here bitch, i'm here
in the small niche, i'll be shutting you down, by using your off-switch. i am a
vandal, i grab you by the handle, i throw you in a deep hole and light up a candle,
fill the hole lot of sand up, so you'll never get up, you wanna know why? cause i'm
fed up !
because of everything you wanna do to me - fed up !
no matter what you do you're never true to me - fed up !
because of everything you wanna say to me - fed up !
no matter what you say, you'll break it anyway - now i'm fed up...fed up !
light my fire, cause you're taking me higher, in a negative sense though, cause you
kill my desire. for a further attention, no need to mention, i don't wanna be around
you, don't wanna feel the tension. i've been cheated, i've been mistreated, but i'm
not taking it no longer, cause i'm gonna beat it ! how long have i been going on?
but now i've gotta say it's over, sober, no more wishing on a four leave-clover.
cause what you wanna do, ain't what you really do, what you really do is never ever
really you, get a grip, man !
I would never wanna be lonely, although I'm not alone, I mean lonely from my heart,
like you don't know where you belong. I would never wanna lose my joy in life, my
one and ev'rything. I'm glad that I'm alive. But somewhere deep inside, there's
emotions that I cannot hide and every time I'm feeling bad, I'm being pulled inside.
The deeper I'll be falling, the louder I'll be calling...can't you see me falling?
I'm going down...
I could never picture myself sinking all the way, so I'd be too alone, to even get
away, but I could really picture myself feeling this way, it hurts so much I never
ever wanna feel this way...down, down, going down, I'd be going all around. My head
would be shaking like a merry-go-around. My body's aching and my bones they're
shaking, as I'm moving on down, can't you see I'm aching...I'm down...I'm going
down...all the way down...I'm going down...Help me!!!
You don't wanna be seeing what I'm seeing right now...
You don't wanna be doing what I'm doing right now...
You don't wanna be feeling what I'm feeling right now...
You don't wanna be me...see me!
I just wanna be the way that I used to be...
I just wanna be doing what I used to do...
I just wanna be feeling what I used to feel...
I just wanna be me...See me!
But I'm going...I'm going down!!!
I've gotta say I'm not a rapper to the bone, you know, I wasn't born in L.A., New
York or so and my town couldn't be more quiet you see, in my hood noone ever pulled
a gun on me! But when I grab the microphone I feel the need in me to release
everything that's inside of me. I've gotta get it out, don't wanna wait and see,
cause what I'm dealing with hurts emotionally. I never spraid a wall or a train you
know. I never got into graffiti, man, I don't know, I never spun on my head,
breakdance till your dead, I only listen to the music, cause that's where it's at.
Don't wanna fall for no gimmick of the industry, like all the funky clothes, I'm not
a wannabe. I do what I like if it feels right to me, It's only me, my voice and my
mic, you see?!
Why would I try to deny where I'm coming from?
Not everytime I hear a beat I gotta move, my man, I'm not a party guy who needs to
shake his thang. It's all about the lyrics and the rhymes, you know, about the song
itself and not the video. Don't wanna see the tits, the cars make the hits, don't
need to see a million people jump up in a pit and shout hip hop hurray - no way -
there's only one way to go for me and that's my way ! My way can only be where i'm
coming from, i need to see what's up around me and put it in a song. My songs are a
cure, gotta keep em all pure, don't wanna have to adapt to the rules for sure. So
this one goes out to all of the wannabes, the ones who are trying to be what they
cannot be. Just do what you like if it feels right to you - It's only you, your
voice and your mic, you fool !
Why would you try to deny where you're coming from ?
when was the last time you made your own decision, free from whatever distracts you
from your vision, free from the pressure of society's rule book, free from how you
act, free from how you look. now really think about it, it's not a tough one. you
are ruled by someone. wherever you go and whatever you may do that someone else is
always there too !
you turn on the telli, you open the papers, you're being ruled by big
money-scrapers, who's sole intention through this invention is showing their
products to grab your attention. showcasing life in the healthiest form, you need to
fit in and you need to conform. be one of the hippest and one of the fittest
consumers out there, within the norm.
but the message is so much deeper, than to change your look or who you are. it's a
corperate game and you're the playball in a pin-ball machine that's too tall. you're
bouncing back from side to side, any direction that they might like, as long as
you're adding up points you're sober, and if not - game over !
backstab, make money, be violent, drive a car, screw everybody else or you won't get
far. take our views and if that is not enough, most importantly go and buy our stuff.
that's the policy we're talking about now, we're all in it - wow ! wherever you go
and whatever you may do, that policy is always there too !
you sell through commercials as far as i can see, whatever happened to a word like
quality. a colourful wrapper from a beautiful paper will make us buy anything sooner
or later. so really think about it, it's not a tough one, we're all ruled by someone,
that someone will make you do just what he wants you to, he's got the means to fuck
with you ! ...and he'll fuck with you !
inside of me and inside of you, that policy is always there too ! it's what you
think and it's what it's what you do, that policy is always there too !
The air is getting so thick, it's almost making me sick, 'cause I'm just sittin'
around waiting for something to go'click, but nothing's clicking at all except for
the clock on the wall and a second feels like eternity. Boy, I'm having a ball...and
it's moments like this that are really making me miss the times when a word like
boredom just didn't exist, yeah those times where a lot better but sooner or later
I'll be coming back so strong although you wouldn't have thought I'd get up! Wanna
move, wanna grove, wanna live, wanna prove, I can do anything that I really wanna
do...
There's something about boredom that's making me sick!
There's something about life I'm missing a kick!
There's something about boredom that's making me sick!
There's something about life I'm missing in a kick...
Gimme that kick, boy!
I'm staring holes in the ceiling 'cause I'm hating that feeling, I'm bored to the
bone and my head starts reeling...and the walls around me, they surround me like a
giant fist, ready to pound me...over and over and over again, I've been caught up in
boredom since I don't know when, I just want get out, I wanna scream out and shout: I
never wanna be bored again 'cause it'll make me freak out. I don't care, truth or
dare, would someone help me out of there, so I can do anything, anytime, anywhere
I'm missing a kick, I'm missing a kick, I'm missing a goddamn a goddamn kick...gimme
that kick boy...yeah, there's something about boredom that's making me sick!
Don't know what it is, but I know that it's somewhere inside of my head
Don't know what it looks like, only know that it's drivin' me mad.
Whatever the cause, whatever the reason for it to be in me,
maybe I'll be like this until eternity.
I couldn't let go of it however hard I might have tried,
I couldn't get any control of it though I tried to fight
these thoughts in my head
they're only drivin' me mad,
I never see the good
I only see the bad!
I've gotta seize the day, so I can feel it!
I've gotta seize the day, so I feel it, I feel it, I feel it.
I'll feel it!
Don't know what I want but I know that what I want is hard to get.
Don't know what I have but I know what I would rather have instead,
whenever I feel this way I hate myself 'cause I can't see,
today is my day how happy I should be.
I couldn't let go of it, however hard I might have tried,
I couldn't get any control of it, though I tried to fight.
I'm locked up in my head,
I think I'd rather be dead,
I never see the good,
I only see the bad!.
I gotta know if this is real,
I gotta care for what I feel,
'cause what I am and who'll be,
It's all my fault,
I've gotta be breaking up with everything I know
If I wanna break ground with anything, I've got to show
Cause if there's one person in the world I've got to please,
It's me, not you
I've got to stand up for what I gotta say
Gotta be lettin my inner light show me the way
To be as much of me as I can let myself be until my dyin day
Cause I (y e a) won't sell myself, won't sell myself to you
I (y e a) won't sell myself to you
I was never the kind of person to follow like sheep
I'm not gonna lie in the bed you made for me
Sometimes the easy way is the harder way
Try to set your mind at ease
I've got to let temptations fall aside
Gotta be letting my heart say what's wrong or right
Still be as much of me as I can let myself be,
As long as I decide
Cause I (y e a) won't sell myself, won't sell myself to you
I (y e a) won't sell myself, won't sell myself to you
I'm so sick and tired of everything that you do to me
Say something new to me
Like "Do as you please"
I'm havin a hard time when you do these things to me
Like I'm guilty or something
Whatever you're tryin to say.
I'm not lazy or stupid or nothin
but I've gotta be pullin myself aside to stop all the fussin'
and fighting, my friend
Cause I (y e a) won't sell myself, won't sell myself to you
I (y e a) won't sell myself, won't sell myself to you
Hey (yea-ah) won't sell myself, won't sell myself to you
Hey (yea-ah) won't sell myself, won't sell myself to you
As I'm walking along side this road called life through all these years,
how many times have I found myself - drowning in tears, pain and agony, as
far as I can see - you never did a thing for me! I tried so hard through
all my life, but I never got a positive reply, I was weary I was weak
inside, but I was angry too, so I realized...
I better won't be, what you want me to be...
I better don't care for what you see in me!
I thank you for hating me, don't want you to believe in me! I thank you, 'cause it
feels so good to be mistreated, to be misunderstood, to be no good.
But now I've gotta say I can't believe how much I used to be shattered, whatever I
did, your opinion it mattered to me, you'll see, today is the day I'll be
what I wanna be! I thank you 'cause you hated me, you were leaving me room
enough to be, ev'rything you ever wanted to be, but now I've got this urge
inside of me...
If we all stood up to be entirely us entirely free, how would our society
survive itself eventually? And if we all stood up today to fight the walls
inside our heads, how would our society be? We'll never see, 'cause we
restrict ourselves inside our heads. We socialize ourselves until we're
dead. We'll never be ourselves, and that's a fact, 'cause we just can't see!
This life to me is like a flower like a tree, you cut your roots, you
think you're free.
This life you'll see, just like flower like a tree, if you cut your roots,
you will no longer be!
If we all came to agree to live our lives in harmony and to defy reality how would it change our destiny? If we all were free to choose, if we're to win or we're to lose, how would our society be? We'll never see, 'cause we restrict ourselves inside our
heads. We socialize ourselves until we're dead. We'll never be ourselves,
and that's a fact, because we're so afraid!
I value live itself in all the sizes and shapes, I try to rank all human
beings just as high as the apes or the birds and the bees what about the
flies and the fleas, may they crawl on the ground or even swim through the
seas. Way up high in the air, some swingin' in trees, such a beautiful
sites, such a beautiful peace ! Only a sick mind kills animals at any time.
How blind could you be not to call it a crime when man slaughters my sons
and my daughters to be suckin' on meat like our ancestors taught us.
Through all our lives leads a path of destruction and death, anger, pain
seem to be the construction of society, we call ourselves civilized, our
hands are covered in blood - we're cavemen in disguise !
How easy it would be to live cruelty free.
I understood one day what this meat thing is all about - I ate it all my life, I
never had a doubt. My parents fed me pig, calve or poultry, you have to eat it all
up if one day you wanna be as big as me ! - yes, I agree. We ate a whole lot of meat
in our family, but one day, 'round about 1984, it hit me like a rock, I couldn't eat
it no more !
Those screams from the slaughterhouse, they woke me up real fast, they
turned my inside out. I realized my personal taste had a high price, for
ev'rytime I ate somebody had to die, but why? I thought we're civilized...
our hands are covered in blood, we're cavemen in disguise.
How easy it would be to live cruelty free.
But instead you mindlessly take their lives. Who gave you the right to play god
himself as you decide about life. I don't fuckin' care 'bout how we used to be or
how we had to hunt and collect, 'cause I don't get the point you see. Hey, we don't
live in the stone age anymore ! You keep the slaughterhouses, so you'll keep the war
!
Don't you see the connection, you just kill and destroy, you're so fuckin'
stupid, 'cause you seem to enjoy... When they bleed, when they die, when
you fancifully fry... The meat in your mouth is all that I see... Just say
what you like, but it's murder to me !
I just can't forgive you !
It could make me wanna sit down and cry, ev'rything we'll ever be has to
die, ev'rything we ever were is dead, I cannot believe what I've had. It
could make me wanna turn around, I don't wanna be lost and not found,
ev'rything that I lose, it just turns me upside down. Whatever I did on the
way to becoming myself, here, today, all the skins that I shed like a snake
have gone astray. I could not be me, I could not feel me, 'cause I realize
I can't be just what I used to be. If I could only bring it back forever,
if I could only bring it back forever... if I could only bring me back
forever... forever!
You don't know just what it means to me, I could never go back to be the way I used to be - believe me - deep inside I think it's killing me I could live I could die, I could pray I could try to be me, but i can't be me!
I remember me as a child, now my phantasies running wild, like a smell or a taste from the past, this reminds me of me. Ev'rything that I used to do, I was so small, ev'rything was new, I never knew, what I'd grow up into. I remember the fear and the pain, I remember the joy just the same, I remember myself like a friend from days gone by. I could not be me, I could not feel me,'cause I realize I can't be just what
I used to be. If I could only bring it back forever... if I could only
bring it back forever... if I could only bring me back forever... forever!
I tried and tried to ease the pain, but now I'm gone and I cannot come home
again. Where's the little boy, that I used to be, of ev'rything that I've
lost I never wanted to lose me, use me up like a battery-pack, I never
wanted to leave, but now I can't come back, I never felt it before, but I
Gotta know the answer, gotta know the truth, gotta have a feeling when I
look at you. Cause I know my reasons and I know the facts, I try to be
wide open so I can fight back.
What you see in me never makes me sad, what I see in you only makes me mad!
Feel me as I expose myself and all I know... Feel me as I expose myself as I explode...
Gotta show emotions, gotta leave your shell, gotta find solutions deep inside yourself, 'cause you'll find the reasons and you'll know the facts, gotta be wide open so
you can fight back.
What you see in me never makes me sad, what I see in you never makes me mad!
Don't you know, that there's a time and there's a space for everyone.
You have a picture of me inside your head, you have it all planned out
Although we never met. You know the story, now you want me to play my role,
a puppet on a string with no mind of my own.
You're taking control of ev'rything that I know, ev'rywhere that I go
And ev'rything that I show...you don't wanna see me, the way I wanna see me, I wanna
feel free
For you...there's no pride!
For me...I just can't hide like this no more!
The truth...I can't ignore!
Don't you wanna do this...I cannot!
Don't you wanna do that...I will not!
What you wanna do?
I've got to pull myself aside!
What I've felt, what I've known, never shining through in what I've shown, now I
remember the words in a metallica song and they so perfectly state where I'm coming
from , cause even though I'm in the public-eye, doesn't mean that I have to give up
myself. I wanna be my own property, with the liberty to decide for myself...tell me
what right do you have in me, you try to change my personality, anywhere the wind
blows ain't me, so go where you gotto go...without me!
For you...there's no pride!
For me...I just can't hide like this no more!
The truth...I can't ignore!
Don't you wanna do this...I cannot!
Don't you wanna do that...I will not!
What you wanna do?
I've got to pull myself aside!
From what I see and what I feel, from what I hear, this can't be real,'cause what I
have ain't mine to keep...forever me!
'cause you'll break me down, you'll cut me out, you'll shut me out
no more!
don't be mislead, 'cause all the others say...
you're insane, for beeing different!
you've gotta stick to yourself and what you stand for...
'cause when you show em the truth they'll understand more of what you want and who
you really are...
'cause we're no different!
"i can feel it!...can you feel it too?"
'cause its our youth
and you're in it too
and that's (this is) all we do,
so let's celebrate it!
don't break away, from all you ever felt,
you're not insane, whatever they say...
you've gotta rip it apart if it hurts you,
listen to your heart it deserves to be all you trust
and all you really are...
'cause we're no different!
"i can feel it!....can you feel it too?"
'cause its or youth
and you're in it too
and that's (this is) all we do,
so lets celebrate it!!
now i know these words sound so much like you've heard em before and you can't stand
it...
it's all that "you and me and the 'world' thing" you can't handle..."you decided to
have it your way but please let me have mine!" god, i must have heard that line a
hundret-million times!!
you wanna drown in your sorrow "poor little me" you don't care about "tomorrow"
please excuse me (?) how fucked (messed) up can you be, emotionally, not to feel
what we're in this for?!
not to see what we're in this for!!!??!!!
'cause its or youth..
and you're in it too..
and that's (this is) all we do,
so lets celebrate it!!
watch out...here i go again,
i've been gone too long, remember who i am?
hold back...i've got somethin' to say,
"i never wanted to leave now i'm back to stay!"
never sold me, what i stood for...

so watch out...here i go again...

i believe its meant to be that i can turn you...
up...side and down
if you decide to follow me then i can really...
turn..you..around!
upside-down, inside out,
i can turn........you around!
upside-down, inside out,
do you believe that i can turn you `round?
i believe its still in me and i can turn you...
up...side and down!
if you decide to trust in me then i can really...
turn...you...around!
i believe its meant to be that i can turn you...
up...side and down
if you decide to follow me then i can really...
turn...you...around!
i'm caught up in you...
you're ev'rything i ever do...
the only thing i ever knew...
and i can feel you through and through!
its like you have a plan for me...
something that's so much more than me...
but sometimes i don't wanna be...
whatever you want me to be...
'cause you don't understand the pain...
of ev'ry word i had to say...
now i don't know if i can stay that way
and i don't know if i'll be saved...
you suck me dry!
you're caught up in me..
i'm ev'rything you'll ever see..
and i refuse so viciously..
to be what you want me to be..
it really hurts to see me lose..
to fail in ev'rything i do..
i doubt if i'm of any use..
i can't be ev'rything for you...
'cause you don't understand the pain...
of ev'ry word i had to say...
now i don't know if i can stay that way...
and i don't know if i'll be saved...
you suck me dry!
it feels so bad..
you can't let go
ev'rything seems sad..
ev'rywhere you go.
and its me-who-never-gave-you-
what i had-to-i regret-you-had to feel...
"ev'rything's over...........now!"
'cause it's all not worth crying for...
and it's all not worth me!
'cause it's all not worth dying for...
and it's all not worth me!
i can breathe your love
i can feel you here..
(hey) ev'rything's ok (!)..
and i'm always near, so don't feel...
"ev'rything's over...........now!"
'cause it's all not worth crying for...
and it's all not worth me!
'cause it's all not worth dying for...
and it's all not worth me!
you're stupid!
you're like a migraine, eating ev'rything inside...
you're like a fire, burning me while i'm still alive...
you will find me...no matter how well i hide...
and i tried... yes i tried!!
you're like a gun shot, killing what's in your way...
you're like a mistake, leading ev'rybody astray...
you're like an earthquake...shake me to the ground!
you're upside...and you're down!
...and you're all...that i will be!
...so you're all...that i will be now!
you're ev'rything inside of me...i can't let you go!
sometimes you're good, sometimes you're mean...you're all that i know!!
you're like a time bomb ticking away in my brain...
you're all i want...'cause you're always the same...
you're good for me, although you're suckin' me all dry...
but you're with me, 'til i die!
...so you're all...that i will be!
...and you're all...that will kill me now!
you're ev'rything inside of me...i can't let you go!
sometimes you're good, sometimes you're mean...you're all that i know!!
you're ev'rything inside of me ...i won't let you go!
sometimes you're great, sometimes your're mean!
you're like a time-bomb ticking away in my brain..!
you're like a time-bomb......................ticking away!!
you're ev'rything inside of me...i can't let you go!
sometimes you're good, sometimes you're mean...you're all that i know!!
you're ev'rything inside of me (i'll ever see!)...i won't let you go!
sometimes you're great, sometimes your're mean!
you shouldn't believe a word of what i say just to begin with..
you shouldn`t let someone like me rule your life like a show-biz..
'cause i'm strong when you're weak, so i lie when i speak,
and i cheat and i treat you like shit,
"hey", you shouldn't let anyone else run the rest o' time for ya,
you shouldn't believe me when i say i adore ya..
its just that i tried, tried, tried, tried, tried, now i hate you so much,
it's all makin' me sick, so i...
lie...
in your face...
'cause you drive...
me insane!
with ev'rything you ever did, you made me lie to you,
so ev'ry word i'll ever speak, you'll never like the truth!
now ev'rything i ever want, is not to lie to you,
but its the way you make me feel, that makes me lie to you!
you shouldn't (even) begin to think that in part you might own me..
you shouldn't let someone like me change your life, you don't know me,
'cause my mind might be vicious, so cold and ambicious..i feed of your trust,
doesn't that make you suspicious?!
i'm not what you want me to live up to and i'm not gonna give up what i know that i
must do! but that i tried, tried, tried, tried, tried, now i miss you so much,
it's all makin' me blind, so i...
lie...
in your face...
'cause you drive...
me insane!
with ev'rything you ever did, you made me lie to you,
so ev'ry word i'll ever speak, you'll never like the truth!
now ev'rything i ever want, is not to lie to you,
but its the way you make me feel, that makes me lie to you!
you're all that i care to exist for (and) only through you i could ever get this far
but although that i tried, tried, tried, tried, tried, "i'm still fuckin' you up all
the time!
don't you know that i..."
lie...
in your face...
'cause you drive...
me insane!
with ev'rything you ever did, you made me lie to you,
so ev'ry word i'll ever speak, you'll never like the truth!
now ev'rything i ever want, is not to lie to you,
but its the way you make me feel, that makes me lie to you!
ev'ry day passes by, without a low, without a high....
first i wake up, to be me again, with nothing to say and noone to blame!
then i can't do the things i adore, 'cause i've lost all the passion that i used to
live for....
i wish i still had the fire inside of me, so i could see the picture that i used to
see........
'cause i feel it as it slips away.....and i try the best i can, but it won't stay!
'cause you know it, we all fade away and we try the best we can but it won't
stay..'cause it is me...and it is real....but i hate me!
ev'ry word's been said before, ev'ry feeling's been felt, nothing new to
explore...how can i believe that i've got something to say, when ev'ry answer's a
question leading me astray!
hey what's so great about this life anyway, you get to learn how to live, then you
just fade away.....i wish i still had the fire inside of me, so i could see the
picture that i used to see.......
'cause i feel it as it slips away.....and i try the best i can, but it won't stay!
'cause you know it, we all fade away and we try the best we can but it won't
stay..'cause it is me...and it is real....but i hate me!
i never thought i could be this way, i never really thought i could feel this way,
how dare i not believe in me (?) i'm giving up on ev'rything i used to be...my
strenght is in my head...and i'm not dead, no i'll never be, 'cause i'll always come
back again!!!
'cause i feel it as it slips away.....and i try the best i can, but it won't stay!
'cause you know it, we all fade away and if we try the best we can we'll make it
stay..'cause it is me...and it is real....and i love ME!!!
You failed so many times it`s sad
because one thing you`ve never had and that is confidence in you!
You went out thinking you`re so weak...
you couldn`t stand up on your feet, you didn`t think your voice was heard by anyone
at anytime...
These words sound stupid now, you`ve heard em all before...
But you don't understand (`em ) so I`ll make sure, you`ll hear 'em once more....
"I know that I can make it...
I`ll make it if I try...
I know that I can make it, if I have the guts to really try!!!
I know that I can take it...
I`ll take it if I try...
I know that I can take it, if I have the guts to really try!!!"
You think it`s easier said than done...you need no clues from anyone...nobody knows
the way you sometimes feel inside.
Sometimes I`m negative myself...why this shit happens, I can`t tell...I told you all
about it, many times, in so many songs....
Just love yourself...and you will be loved
If you just loved yourself...it would help so much...
(`cause) you would understand...what it means to you
you`d have some confidence...that would pull you through!
And you will be heard ...and I won`t have to say these words forever...
I know that I can make it...
they wanted to break my back, wanted to hold me back from beeing free.
they had a part for me in society, but that wasn't me.
they gave me an early start, when they broke my heart i needed to see.
that if i wanted to be myself i couldn't be myself without me!
so here i am!
i stepped out!
to be free!
`cause with all that's left inside of me, with my back against the wall.
i can still decide what's best for me, i can still say all i want.
"now that i'm free!"
i needed to learn the truth, i had to find my own destiny.
ev'rybody would pass me by, i couldn't pacify the urge in me!
cause i was given wings to fly, that i was meant to try can't you see.
that if i wanted to be myself i couldn't be myself without me!
so here i am!
i stepped out!
to be free!
`cause with all that's left inside of me, with my back against the wall.
i can still decide what's best for me, i can still stay in control.
now that i'm free!
you didn't think that i would try...
you never knew what's on my mind...
you didn't think i'd really try to be more than this!?
i had to live in agony...
i knew you're looking down on me...
but i always knew that i would be so much more than this!
`cause with all that's left inside of me, with my back against the wall.
i can still decide what's best for me, i can still say all i want!
"now that i'm free!"
You're in me,
Just like a bad disease,
But I can't find a cure to get you out of me!
You're so real, as real as you could be,
But it feels like you're a part of someone's phantasy!
Hey, I don't know, what you want from me, but you take away my life and all my privacy...
I don't care for what you see in me,
'cause you try to break me down like I'm an enemy...
But you don't know me, you can't own me,
read my lips "I think I'm falling!"
Hold me... take me... know me... break me!
You think of me just like a butterfly,
You wanna pin me to your wall so I can never fly!
Just like a flower that you need to dry,
Caught between two books you squeeze me ´til I die...
Now i've got to break it down,
Back to where I used to be as a child,
No one told me who or where to be,
As I grew up I didn't wanna deal with the shit of my parents,
'cause they made me feel like a piece of shit,
I didn't fit, wanted me to quit,
Get back to the real world so they'd say, anyway,
I relied on myself since I was ten, nine, eight...
I don't care for who you want me to be,
Go get a grip, or you'll slip, 'cause your life is atrip and you will fall until you... Go and awake to escape, 'cause your life is a fake; you oughta break what you hate, or hate is your fate. Go get a grip or you'll slip, 'cause your life is a trip and you fall until you... hit after hit you might think this is it, but let the truth come out, you'll be alone with your shit. Your life is built with upon liesand cheap alibies, we'll see how long they can last, how long you get by... I call you a sucker, a cheap motherfucker, you lied in my face, I thougt we liked each other, but you didn't think so, your life is a no-go, so fall until you... hit after hit, come on this is it, the way that you needed it, open your eyes, let the truth rise and don't be a victim of all your lies!
You're just a victim of your lies... go tell another one of your lies!
You're just a victim of your lies!
Look at the fruit of your labour and do me a favour, no more fucking up big time, maybe that's safer. If you don't believe me, finally you'll be alone and on your own... you don't own this world alone, it's time to stop all the lying, get off your throne. The lies that you cover, one after the other have made you so weak, you will never recover... sucker!
What's it all good for, you always stood for... truth and honesty... no more. Now you're all lying, I guess you're just trying to make an impression, just keep on trying, but you haven't realized that you are almost paralysed, all of those lies, man, you have been victimized, catch 22 has gotten you, covering up lies is all that you do!
You're just a victim of your lies... go tell another one of your lies!
You're just a victim of your lies!
I wish I could say everything you used to be blows up in smoke,
for everybody else to see it's a joke,
doesnt't't it make you feel like you have to choke,
on the words you spoke,
when the promise you broke.
You were looking mighty small to me,
cought up in your world of misery.
Cause when you found a light to lead you the way,
you were looking for a fire to lead you astray.
*Out of your mind, you were looking for change
you were going blind.
Say what you want, be what you want, be who you wanna be!
You held your values so high, how could you sink so low?
You tried to reach for the sky, now youve got nowhere to go.
You think it's worth the pain, you say you're free to choose.
Hey, youve got nothing to gain but everything to lose!
I don't understand why you had to sacrifice your ideals,
everithing you stood for, I know how it feels.
Bouncing back and forth day by day,
never reaching home never wanted to stay.
You held your values high, too hgh to reach,
you almost touched the sky, now you're back on your feet.
Follow the light again, leading the way,
and spit out the fire that lead you astray.
*Wiederholung
You held your values high, too high for you to keep
You almost touched the sky, now you're back on your feet
You had your plans and hopes, you had your dreams to share
Evry thumb songs a sad song they say.
that's because im a sad guy, ok?!
i can't write about how great i feel all day,
when at the end of the day nothings ok!
im like you out there i can't describe it, were
seeing this world with our own eyes and i bet...
you can't decide what you're purpose in life is.
you cannot take anymore, so don't fight it.
were lost in this world, where nothing can feel right...
...are you down... with me?
-do you feel... like me?
-are you down, lost... all alone like me?
...are you down... with me?
-do you feel... like me?
-are you down, lost... all alone like me?
evry thumb songs an angry song you know?!.
that's because im so angry it's gotta show.
in the words that im writing to let it go.
all my anger released, see, i told you so!
this world is crazy... don't you see it's true?!?
were all crazy... cause we live in it too!
pain, hate, fear and yealosy...
feed my sadness and my agony.im in a spot,
where nothing can feel right...
...are you down... with me?
-do you feel... like me?
-are you down, lost... all alone like me?
...are you down... with me?
-do you feel... like me?
-are you down, lost... all alone like me?
are you down... with me?
From the distance I can hear the troops marching in again, a slightly different look, but the
goal's the same. The evil ghosts from our not so distant past are back, but no one ever
stopped them and no one sent them back. It's like we never ever learned anything at all, we
saw them rise again at all, if we don't wanna see them rise again at all and we don't wanna
see them rise again at all...
Fascism sucks!
I know that all of this has been said before, you might not wanna listen, to you it's just a bore,
the houses burning are not mine and they're not your's, but soon they might be knocking on
our very doors. They'll always find a reason to bring somebody down, not just the skin-colour,
yellow, black, red or brown, just like rotten fruit you're beeing sorted out, you're either in r
otherwise you're out. You've gotta act now, you've gotta stand tall, if you don't wanna see
them rise again at all, if you don't wanna see them rise again at all, if you don't wanna see
them rise again at all and if you don't wanna see them rise again at all...
Fascism sucks! ...and so do you... if you believe in it too! Wise up!
Fascism sucks... no matter what they say!
Fascism sucks... no matter what they do!
As I take a look around to see everything that's going on around me, people
that can clearly see, they're trying to be blind so they wont be a part of
what I call reality, something deep inside of you and me, hidden somewhere
back where you can't see, you're so afraid that you can't set it free.
I don't know what's so bad to be real, I don't know why you're afraid to
feel, what you gotta lose it can't be much, the only thing you seem to lose
is touch.
I gotta know... wont you let me know... I can't believe... hey Ive gotta live in my reality...
reality.
there's a tendency to look away if something in our lives leads us astray, you might have to
find yourself today a different
one than you were yesterday. How do thirst and hunger really feel, what's the loneliest you'll
ever be, it's all somewhere
back
where you can't see, you're so afraid that you can't set it free.
I don't know... I gotta know... wont you let me know... I can't believe were
always looking for truth in every lie we see... reality.
What youve got to lose it can't be much, what you're gonna do you're out of touch, who
you're gonna be is hard to see
And if I never spoke a word again, but this I need to say. I criticized and
analyzed you - that's worthless from today on, cause I changed my
attitude, forgive me father - I was rude! Man I think I made you feel
no good - the victim of my moods! I was such a teenage-little brat, no
appreciation for what you did... that's how it seemed to you, but I just
needed you to take me in your arms - keep me warm!
Forever - you'll be to me, much more than I show you, so much more than you see.
Whenever - we may disagree, it's like
losing a part that once belonged to me.
In childhood-days I had to be much more of you, much less than me. I'd like to be just like
my dad I swore, you meant the
world to me. But something changed
my attitude, I know myself if this is good or bad or anything to me - oh
father, let me be! I was such a dumb-ass little kid, no appreciation for
what you did... that's how it seemed to you, but I just needed you to take
me in your arms - keep me warm!
The further Im away, the more I'd love to stay, cause I had to learn today, that now I love
what I used to hate! wouldn't it
be nice, if we both hadnt changed and parts of our lives could have been rearranged. Now it's
got be too late to erase the
past, think about the future, think about the past, think about it fast... as long if
we have each other... as long as we have each other... as long as I don't
have to be what you want me to be!
Dad - please hold me! Dad - please keep me! Dad - please love me! But I will never be like
This is me calling, could someone get the phone, please.
I hope you haven't all forgotten about me.
Ev'rything is nothing, there, I've said it again and again and again,
I'm jumping someone else's train.
Wrong is right and right is wrong,
Can't even figure out where I belong now,
But how am I ever gonna get a trip,
When I slip and I trip over just about every little thing there is.
Hey, I'm not gonna crack, I'm not gonna crack, I'm not gonna crack this time,
I'll feel fine and nothing in the world is gonna make me wine.
That's easier said than done, for sure.
My mood swings have begun, so pure
And I'm feeling the pain in my brain again,
Feeling the pain again, feeling so lame again.
Red Alert, Red Alert...
In search for the homecrowd! I can't get it out!
In search for the homecrowd! I can't get it out!
This is a never ending story,
I need someone to puzzle it for me,
Need someone to solve the mistery of the reaccuring madness,
Tearing me down into a see of sadness.
Sad, sad as it ever was.
Mad, mad as it ever was.
And I could never see myself sinking all the way,
But now I'm too alone to even get away.
Get away from the pain in my brain, am I still sane?
I guess I worry too much about what is said and done,
I should shut down my brain and have some fun.
But there's a fire burning inside of me,
You can't put it out all that easily.
Burning is living to me, ev'rybody.
Help! Don't need nobody!
Red Alert, Red Alert...
In search for the homecrowd! I can't get it out!
In search for the homecrowd! I can't get it out!
I can't tell you what I really feel,
'Cause in a mood like this I don't really feel,
I'm not really me at all, more like a shadow of myself,
Trapped by my own mind, trapped by myself.
So may the force be with me forever, surrender to the dark side never,
I wanna gain control you see, so that the empires never gonna strike back on me.
Red Alert, Red Alert...
In search for the homecrowd! I can't get it out!
In search for the homecrowd! I can't get it out!
In search for the homecrowd!
I see this, in a different light...
so clear to me, so true, so tight...
so senseless, just to get it right this time this is mine!
you'll want me... how you want me...
"that little guys all crazy"
your saviour, i can never be what you see in me
my hearts on fire this time... ill make it mine!
cause all... you see in me... is all... youll never see
and all... you want from me... is all... ill never be!
im speachless, with much more to say...
so aimless, but im on my way...
so useless, but I'll get it right this time this is mine!
so weightless, so out of touch...
i feared these lines so very much...
your saviour, i can't be the crutch that will make you walk!
my hearts on fire tonight... ill make it right!
cause all... you see in me... is all... youll never see
and all... you want from me... is all... ill never be!
i know that evrything ive said makes sense to me, inside my head, that's where my inner
peace is at... inside my head!
cause all... you see in me... is all... youll never see
and all... you want from me... is all... ill never be
and i don't care for what you say... i dread the thought to be your way... your world is fake,
and there's no desire
