You have to swear you've got love to love me
Aah, aah, that will last forever
Aah, aah, we must have a story
Aah, aah, with a happy ending
Aah, aah, so don't ever go away
And never put aside the things I'm gonna say
'Cause these are the rules for us
Use your eyes only to look at me
Use your mouth only to kiss my lips
We are branches of the same old tree
You can laugh only if you laugh with me
You can cry only if you cry for me
Don't forget that you're condemned to me
Oh can't you see you always were, you'll always be
You used to say I should see a doctor
Aah, aah, who would keep me busy
Aah, aah, 'cause a jealous woman never makes it easy
Aah, aah, and you know I'll do for us whatever seems right
But it may take awhile before I change the rules
Use your eyes only to look at me
Use your mouth only to kiss my lips
We are the branches of the same old tree
You can laugh only if you laugh with me
You can cry only if you cry for me
Don't forget that you're condemned to me
Oh can't you see you always were, you always were
So use your eyes only to look at me
Use your mouth only to kiss my lips
We are the branches of the same old tree
You can laugh only if you laugh with me
You can cry only if you cry for me
Don't forget that you're condemned to me

You have to swear
You've got love to love me
Aah aah
That will last forever
Aah aah
We must have a story
Aah aah
With a happy ending
Aah, so don't ever go away
And never put aside
The things I'm gonna say
Cause these are rules for us
Use your eyes
Only to look at me
Use your mouth
Only to kiss my lips
We are branches of the same old tree
You can laugh
Only if you laugh with me
You can cry
Only if you cry for me
Don't forget that you're condemned to me
Oh, can't you see
You always were
You'll always be
You used to say
I should see a doctor
Aah aah
Who would keep me busy
Aah aah
Cause a jealous woman
Never makes it easy
Aah aah,
And you know I'll do for us
Whatever seems right
But it may take awhile
Before I change the rules
Use your eyes
Only to look at me
Use your mouth
Only to kiss my lips
We are branches of the same old tree
You can laugh
Only if you laugh with me
You can cry
Only if you cry for me
Don't forget that you're condemned to me
Oh, can't you see
You always were
You always were
Aah, aah, aah...
So,
Use your eyes
Only to look at me
Use your mouth
Only to kiss my lips
We are branches of the same old tree
You can laugh
Only if you laugh with me
You can cry
Only if you cry for me
Don't forget that you're condemned to me
Oh, can't you see
You always were
You'll always be
Aah, aah...

YES, SO THE MESSAGE GOES
LIKE AN INSECT IN ITS DEATH-THROES
A MAGIC-CARPET-RIDE TO HELL
THEN BACK TO HER WITH TIME TO TELL
A METAL-SCAR ON EVERY FACE
WE WALK TO A FORBIDDEN PLACE
WHERE DIRTY WATER CLEANS THE SOUL
WE POUR INTO ANOTHER HOLE
UNDER A CONCRETE-SKY
BARRICADES BEGIN TO RISE
SUN AND STARS BEGIN TO FALL
A SONIC-BOOM CONDEMNS US ALL
DECAPITATED SOLDIERS FIGHT
AND MINISTERS CONTROL THE THE LIGHT
IN LEAKING GAS WE BAKE OUR FLESH
AND IN THE AIR WE FIGHT FOR BREATH
HERE COMES A SECRET DELIVERY
ALL ABOARD THE REASON WHY
A BROKEN DOWN DISCOVERY
THE RULES, THE RULES DO NOT APPLY
I'M HALF BLIND AND I'M LOSING
A PICTURE THAT IS OUT OF CONTROL
I'M LYING ON THE GROUND BUT I'M MOVING
A PRISON BEING BUILT ROUND MY SOUL
AUF DEM FLIEGENDEN TEPPICH ZUR HOLLE UND ZURUCK
MIT AUSFUHRLICHEM BERICHT
UNTER BLEIERNEM HIMMEL
BARRIKADEN VERDUNKELN DAS LICHT
KOPFLOSE SOLDATEN IN DER SCHLACHT
INSEKTEN IN TODESZUCKUNGEN
IM ANGESICHT VERLOSCHENDER GESTIRNE VERLASSEN

I've come to realize that life is but a game
and it doesn't matter how you score but how you play
and although the masses play the host make all the rules
the only rules you should live by. . .
rules made up by you the only rules you should live by
in this bent facade of people being who they're not
who view the world through the wind shield of the beamer they just bought
and swear by hypocrisy
yea thinking they'll go far
hey mister can you tell me...tell me who you are
two for one can you survive one by one
you stay alive do you think you really stand a chance
pray to god for intervention
deities of your invention

All you hoes, be cryin for these bitches
All you niggaz, be cryin for these hoes

Where the four planes at huh is you insane bitch?
Fly that shit over my hood and get blown to bits!
No disrespect, that's where I rest my head
I understand you gotta rest yours true, nigga my people's dead
America, together we stand, divided we fall
Mr. Bush sit down, I'm in charge of the war!
Yes yes y'all, the I-N-S bless y'all
Stop hearts like cholesterol, let's brawl
Never fall, tear it down like a wreckin ball
Role call where my niggaz that's one for all
And all for one, we draw the guns on impulse
Cash in the envelope, spend it on kinfolk
Then smoke a ounce as we count mills
Providin you pure ecstasy without pills
Y'all know the rules, we don't fuck with fools man
How the fuck did we get so cool man?
Never ever disrespect my crew
If ya fuck with Wu we gots ta fuck witchu
Y'all dogs better guard ya grills, it's all real
We live from (?), it's the God I-Reelz
Yo wonderful, spark the blillz
Let me build with the people for the mills
I'm rollin with the Rebel I-Ill from Killa Hill, peace to Brownsville
Brothers that'll kill for the will of the righteous
Twenty-five to lifers, true and livin snipers
You wait like "Sixth Sense" 'til hard to kill
How you livin StreetLife? I'm surrounded by criminals
Serial killers tote guns without the serial
High-tech, street intellect, all digital
Project original, sheisty individual
New York's bravest, always supply you with the latest
We hall of famers, and still hit you with the greatest
Took a year hiatus, now you wanna hate us
Thanks to all you haters for all the cream you made us
Sendin letters to (?), my cousin in Wendy's on Viacom
At home, it's worth money, I adorns
Order drinks, all real niggaz order your minks yo
We got the fitteds on, lookin all fink
Daddy everybody get money from now on
Payday flash Visas livin like, Easter e'ryday
Don't fuck Benz, rather a 430
That shit that float through water, eyeball come up, drop birdies yo
We can eat right, or we can clap these toys
I'm with StreetLife, ain't never been a Backstreet Boy
Who y'all kiddin? Tryin to act like my shoe fittin
Confused with ya head up yo' ass like who's shittin?
It's Hot Nixon, same team same position
Battin average three-five-seven and still hittin
Y'all still bitchin, still lame and still chicken
I'm still here, one leg missin and still kickin
Cause I'm haaaaaaaaaaaard! Hard like a criminal
Love like a tennis shoe, throw slug to finish you
It's the Method Man, for short Mr. Meth
I can tell this motherfucker ain't Wu, look at his neck
"Comin from the thirty-six chamber" - Meth
"Bring it to em proper, potnah" - Meth - "Wu, Tang, Wu, Tang"
It's Wu-Tang, rushin yo' gang, crushin the game
Pretty thugs, clutchin they chain, hand cuppin they thang
Who get strange, gassed up playin with flames

you did everything you could
you had to go away from your home
i never realized when i was a kid
how alone, how alone
yeah well back in your neighborhood
they knew you when you blew through town
behind your back they were putting you down
they had
rules for this
rules for that
rule on top of rule
broke your back
once upon a time i was holding your hand
a lady off the street came up
she said hey mister i need some money
you can't give enough
i'll never forget the look in your eye
as you dug into your pocket to give
that look of love gave me a reason to live
there are
rules for this
rules for that
if you put rule on top of rule
you can break someone's backbreak the rules
just the other day i was breaking a rule
my whole self was ashamed
i thought the sky would open and cry
thunder and rain
yeah well there are many reasons
i don't feel so good
i'd forgive if i could
but i got
rules for this
rules for that
rule on top of rule
to break my back
break the rules
break the rules

Everyone has their own myths
If not their father's troubles
It's the mother's kiss
But me would you save my life
Or take it away from me - stab me with a knife
Hey you could find it in yourself, I know
To fly across the cobalt sky
And leave me down below, I know
To bend my neck and wave goodbye
You pictured in black and white - clouds stay 'til night
Don't make the day look right
You in a beatnick black beret - out on a sunny day
Make the crows fly away
Hey you could find it in yourself, I know
To fly across the cobalt sky
And leave me down below, I know
To bend my neck and wave goodbye
Hey you could find it in yourself, I know
To fly across the cobalt sky
And leave me down below, I know
To bend my neck and wave goodbye
Wave goodbye
Wave goodbye
Wave goodbye
Wave goodbye
Wave goodbye

(Maggie Ryder, Phil Nicholl & Graham Lamb)
Love was meant to be loving
So many times we don't give, we take
Love has really no conception to this rule
Days you gave me were numbered
And as a rule they were hard to take
All it took was the number of a fool
Rules were made to be broken
So many hearts break the some way too, aw baby
I said that you ain't no exception to the rule, yes sir
Your answer begging my question
It seems I left you too late to ask
Was this really your intention
From the start
The nights you left me are empty, baby
As for the answer, they changed the past
I tried to let you explain your change of heart
How could you change your mind
Rules were made to be broken
So many hearts break the some way too, aw honey
I said that you ain't no exception to the rule
How could they say
It would be better this way... without you
When by the usual rules
I kept presuming that you would stay, baby
So many hearts break the same way too, now mister
I said that you ain't no exception to the rule
You...
Gonna get on my bad heart
Just like everybody asks you
You've gotta help baby
You've gotta help me convert, too

Welcome to my wonderful world of pain and agony
Let me introduce myself my name is tragedy
The kind that sneaks into your bedroom late at night
The kind that makes an airplane crash while it's in flight
I'm the type of stress that'll make your heart skip a beat
The type that left you hungry and homeless on the street
The kind that makes you spin like CD ROM
I took the life from your body

Don't believe the words they say
Live your life your own fucking way
Live your life day to day
Don't fall under their decay
[Chorus] Make your own rules
Who are they to tell us what to do
We won't take no bullshit from you
TV doesn't tell us who we are

Sense never seemed to make sense to me.
Sense never seemed to make sense to me.
Not the sense you administer repeatidly.
I fled to the hills so i could clear my mind.
I couldn't swallow the pills that i was pescribed.
People didn't always like each other Did they?
People din't always get along.
I read the news but it wasn't good,
Because the bad guys won when the good guys should.
Was it i told you that the worlds not flat,
Tell the beautiful source can it be taken as fact.
People didn't always get along though did they?
People didn't always like each other did they?
Ooo you know you'd never get to find out anyway.
The game plays us for rules.
You know you'd never get to have the final say.
You'll get to make the rules.
People always looking for something they can't find.
One mans fact's anothers trick of the mind.
People always looking for something they can't find.
One mans fact's anothers trick of the mind.
People didn't always like each other did they?
People didn't always get along though did they?
Ooo you know you'd never get to find out anyway.
The game plays us for rules.
You know you'd never get to have the final say.
You'd get to make the rules.
You know you'd never get to find out anyway.
The game plays us for rules.
You're never gonna get to have the final say.
You get to make the rules.
Rules.
One man falls another takes his place.
He chases the win until the end of his days.
One man falls another takes his place.
He chases the win until the end of his days.
One man falls another takes his place.
One man falls another takes his place.
One man falls another takes.
ooo you know you'd never get to find out anyway.
The Game plays us for rules.
You know you'd never get to have the final say.
You get to make the rules.
You'll get to make the rules.
You know you'll get to make the rules.
Get to make the rules.
Rules.

[Intro:]
Count my money, party with bitches
Hundreds and fitties, big ass titties
Count the green, get in between those titties
[talking:]
I lay mine down at the do', huh
[Hook: x2]
Me and my niggaz, we got rules with these bitches
(don't let em know your hand, putting em all in your bidness)
They ain't that special ass, but provide twenty bitches
(and keep your mind, on your motherfucking riches)
[Mr. 3-2:]
These broads be bopping club hopping, trying to see what they could get
I know before a trick, trying to come up I fit
Business and pleasure don't mix, with Mr. 3-2
I'ma smash and pass the ass, to my partnas when I'm through
Who's fucking who, behind closed do's
Real playas get chose, and keep they mind on papo'
24/7 around the clock, it don't stop
I bust a nut and burn out, conversation is all I got
These bitches plot and scheme, running con game
On any motherfucker, that they seeing having change
The fortune and fame, is far from the love potent
Better play it like it go, cause these girls is cut throat
[Clay-Doe:]
What I don't need to hear, is a bitch that just gave up
Her face and rear, in my motherfucking ear
Last year was last year, hoe it ain't the same
Your pass main thang, to fuck off your brain
I'm ahead of the game, that these tricks be playing
Crushing ass in a van, I feel shit you saying
Like this dumb bitch, that use to talk a bunch of shit
Trying to come up, but all she got to do is lunch with it
Planted my fists, laws with these fucking drawas and jaws
Conversate her fun without, no stars and flaws
Clay-Docious game ferocious, coat dropper
Don't care if you a show stopper, I got nothing for no bopper
[Hook x2]
[Lil' O:]
Fat Rat Wit Da Cheese, boy I rip up blocks
When I make my glock, hiccup shots
Niggaz be picking up they jaws, when a nigga come pick up they cot
Take they main bitch, and split her twat
Hit her spot like ten men, that's why she dent in
And called her girlfriends, and had to mention
That that Lil' O nigga, he don't play no games
Like these other fraud cats, I won't say no names
Say cocaine, and watch boys say Lil' O
Got whatever hustlers need, from a brick to a O
I do my bidness old school, man you get it and go
Jackers get wet, from they head to they toe I said it befo'
[Mike D:]
Everytime you hit the pussy, bitches acting like you warm
Put nothing past them nigga, trust em far as you can throw em
I show em what I mob off, in a Escallade on 20 inches
If it ain't my main thang, pass em off to my niggaz
See I supply figgas, so game reco' game
On my toes like ballerinos, when dealing with dames
See you's a fool, if your main hoe chucking the puddy
And every nigga in the hood, distributing cookies
And y'all rookies got these hookies, so far in your mix
On how you break down bricks, and double up on thirty six
Better act like you know, cause niggaz'll slide hoes up under ya
Trade they ass for ya cash, and leave your dumb ass pondering

(Intro)[Verse 1 - Peeta's Perspective**]
You say you know love,
but you are just reflecting words you hear.
No iron in your veins,
could give you any sense of pain or fear.
It's just another lie,
it's just another calculation.
And when the power's out,
we're just another old sensation.
This blood* keeps me alive,
but what is it that runs through you?
Electricity and wires,
dictating everything you do.
You tell me that you hear me,
and all your memories are real.
But how do I know,
you don't just feel what you've been told to feel?[Chorus]
We run around the rules,
we run around the rules,
we run around the rules.
'Round and around,
two by two,
we run around the rules.[Verse 2 - Katniss' Perspective**]
There's water in your eyes,
And I know I'm the reason that its there.
But still I don't feel bad,
because I know that you have more to spare.
And just behind your eyes,
are switches that can turn back on.
To clear away today,
'till all your memories are gone.[Chorus]
We run around the rules,
we run around the rules,
we run around the rules.
'Round and around,
two by two,
we run around the rules.
We run around the rules,
we run around the rules,
we run around the rules.
(we run around the rules)
'Round and around,
two by two,
we run around the rules.

Love me to hate, Hate me just to love
There will be nowhere for us to hide
Just don't ignore, that's the rule we share
Share the risk and the joy here together
Here we go! Here we go! We know what to love now!
Smash and build now, climb and fall
Here we go! Here we go! We know what to hate now!
Crush and start now, Try and fail now,
Too late to look back the yesterday and dive to despair
What we face straight to is
Fear and respect now
Fear and respect now
There was a fight on the corner last night
A kid got stubbed and he died in the ambulance
Are we too savage in this fragile life?
Too much to talk and to think, what we do now?
Here we go! Here we go! We know what to love now!
We can only live on the instincts
Here we go! Here we go! We know what to hate now!
A life without death, a love without hate
Too much to regret but do our best, do our best
What we face straight to is
Fear and respect now
Fear and respect now
Let out fear and respect to all
To all the birth and the death on the earth
Sometimes too fast and sometimes too slow
Time goes by like a light
No matter what we do the time just goes by
Sometimes too gentle sometimes too rough
Time breaths beneath the light
No matter what we do the time just goes by
Fear and respect to all and go high! (Fear and respect now!)
Fear and respect to all and go high! (Fear and respect now!)
Fear and respect to all and go high! (Fear and respect now!)

What I find in you's no surprise (it's no surprise)
I don't even think you listen
Thought you saw through my disguise (through my disguise)
It doesn't matter, you're days are numbered
You handle my life like rolling dice
But give me time, you'll see
I don't need you and your advice
You can't cage me
We have the right to our freedom
This is the life we choose
We never asked for you and all your rules
Tried to label and number me (tried to label me)
Do you even know what you're saying
You are worse than I'll ever be (worse than I'll ever be)
So the rest of us all are praying
You shattered my mind like broken glass
And I won't play your game
My lucky stars have all been smashed
And it's you that I blame
We have the right to our freedom
This is the life we choose
We never asked for you and all your rules
(Solo)
We have the right to our freedom
This is the life we choose
We never asked for you and all your rules
