The chemical industry comprises the companies that produce industrial chemicals. Central to the modern world economy, it converts raw materials (oil, natural gas, air, water, metals, and minerals) into more than 70,000 different products.
Polymers and plastics, especially polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene terephthalate, polystyrene and polycarbonate comprise about 80% of the industry’s output worldwide.[citation needed] Chemicals are used to make a wide variety of consumer goods, as well as thousands inputs to agriculture, manufacturing, construction, and service industries. The chemical industry itself consumes 26 percent of its own output.[citation needed] Major industrial customers include rubber and plastic products, textiles, apparel, petroleum refining, pulp and paper, and primary metals. Chemicals is nearly a $3 trillion global enterprise, and the EU and U.S. chemical companies are the world's largest producers.[citation needed]
Sales of the chemical business can be divided into a few broad categories, including basic chemicals (about 35 to 37 percent of the dollar output), life sciences (30 percent), specialty chemicals (20 to 25 percent) and consumer products (about 10 percent).[citation needed]
She's coming over,
I can smell the chemicals from here,
I just had to get away,
And my resistance,
Is I don't need it to exist,
I should just give it away
Dry your eyes, your true deceit is known,
These things you call yourself are really things that you own,
Dry your eyes, your true deceit is known,
These things you call yourself are really parts of the whole
And I should have known not to let you into my house,
Into my house, my house, my house, my house,
And I should have known not to let you into my house,
Into my house, my house, my house, my house
She's got her bag open,
A gift from a special friend,
He works the nightshift every day,
And every moment, every second,
Every minute I hesitate,
I should just give it away
Dry your eyes, your true deceit is known,
These things you call yourself are really things that you own,
Dry your eyes, your true deceit is known,
These things you call yourself are really parts of the whole
And I should have known not to let you into my house,
Into my house, my house, my house, my house,
And I should have known not to let you into my house,
Lost in words of anticipation
Lost in words of revelations
23 and 5 resulting
Equally absorbed their sigh
And I need my chemicals
I need your chemicals
Are my dreams gone?
Are my words forgiven?
Are my deeds undone?
Am I now forgiven?
The walls of this chamber
were made to set you free
So soft, so clean
My friend, where have you been
I'm a revolutionary
A christian fairy tale
I'm a missionary
A visionary anarchist
I'm a full moon fever
I'm a non-believer
I have hope and I regret
Glass shard sticking out of my heart
Now the summer has subsided for the rain
Last time take a look in these eyes
Spend eternity escaping from the pain
Last chance when the hummingbirds dance
And the river's overflowing on its banks
Hold tight when the weather is right
There's another that awaits to take your place
False alarm I could have sworn
That something else was going on
False alarm I could have sworn
That something else
False alarm I could have sworn
That something else was going on
False alarm I could have sworn
That something else
Glass shard sticking out of my heart
Now the summer has subsided for the rain
Last time take a look in these eyes
Spend eternity escaping from the pain
Last chance when the hummingbirds dance
And the river's overflowing on its banks
Hold tight when the weather is right
There's another that awaits to take your place
False alarm I could have sworn
That something else was going on
False alarm I could have sworn
That something else
Glass shard sticking out of my heart
Now the summer has subsided for the rain
Last time take a look in these eyes
Spend eternity escaping from the pain
Last chance when the hummingbirds dance
And the river's overflowing on its banks
Hold tight when the weather is right
There's another that awaits to take your place
Hold tight when the weather is right
There's another that awaits to take your place
Chemicals
All the food and the air and the river, streams
Been soiled by technology
Packaged in barrels delivered in cans
Liquids are seeping into the land
CHEMICALS CHEMICALS CHEMICALS CHEMICALS
Cars drive planes fly ships sail around
We shit we spit we puke and piss
Everything's dirty everything's dirty
Everything's dirty is the end in sight?
CHEMICALS CHEMICALS CHEMICALS CHEMICALS
It's dirty it's dirty (everything is dirty)
It's dirty it's dirty (everything is dirty)
Everything is dirt
In the air in the ground our medication
In trucks in trains straight to your door
Packaged in barrels delivered in cans
Liquids are seeping into the land
All this wasted space
This whole room it takes
Hard to stay awake
This is my escape
If we feel it back up
Amphetamine rush
Set me on fire tonight, tonight
It's getting critical, getting critical
I gotta let it go, gotta let it go
Your my chemical, your my chemical
Killer, killer, killer, killer
Stabs me in the back
Takes me all I have
Wrestle to the floor
See you soon for more
If we feel it back up
Amphetamine rush
Set me on fire tonight, tonight
It's getting critical, getting critical
I gotta let it go, gotta let it go
Your my chemical, your my chemical
Killer, killer, killer, killer
It's getting critical, getting critical
I gotta let it go, gotta let it go
Your my chemical, your my chemical
The lights in your room keep on blinking off.
And I’m on my back, on your floor.
Tell me how you fooled the world again,
I like how you laugh when you tell it.
Play dead, cause I’ll be playing dead with you.
I’ll play you when you’re dead in a year or two.
Can you please point me to your chemicals?
I need to feel like I’ve got rocks in my eyelids.
The only superhero I’ve ever known was you, about 5 years ago.
It was you about 5 years ago.
The lights outside turn into knives on me and I forget how to get home.
It only feels like it’s the summer now,
cause everyone’s always wearing the wrong clothes.
Play dead, cause I’ll be playing dead with you.
I’ll play you when you’re dead in a year or two.
Can you please point me to your chemicals?
I need to feel like I’ve got rocks in my eyelids.
The only superhero I’ve ever known was you, about 5 years ago.
It was you about 5 years ago.
I can picture your coffin in the hallway;
And your family standing inside the doorway.
They’ll point all their fingers at me and say,
‘Where are your drugs? Today we need them.
Where are your drugs? We need an escape.’
[x2]
Can you please point me to your chemicals?

Chemicals will hit you
Chemicals will knock you down
Is it over cause you feel no pain
Throwing me around
You attack my head with numbers
You tack my room with things of glass
You attack my neighbours `til you`ve found someone
Who`s cleaning up the mess
You are no good
Cause I know you can`t sleep
Til you know your overbearance makes me creep
strange dreams about old women
afraid to go to sleep, hate to wake up
strange ethics in my head
wrong and alive, or right and dead
and I, I need strong belief
I.................
I need dull relief
I can't go on, without chemicals, without chemicals
strange feeling about losing weight
always at an angle, when I'm straight
and I, I need strong belief
I.................
I need dull relief
I can't go on, without chemicals, without chemicals
and I, I need strong belief
I.................
I need dull relief
I can't go on, without chemicals, without chemicals
without chemicals, without chemicals.....
Ohhhhhh ahhhhhhhhh
Ohhhhhh oooooooooo
Ohhhhhh ahhhhhhhhh
Ohhhhhh oooooooooo
Ohhhhhh ahhhhhhhhh
A room sometimes is a body
With the loneliest view
And the porch lights grow dim
With every on-setting hour
Where the stars seem so finite to you
But love it ain’t like the chemicals babe
Cause the chemicals don’t hang around
While everybody’s drilling for a fountain of youth
Losing years on the way down
A melody can be exhausted babe
Short of friend and fame
Cause the birds they don’t sing
In the winter short of spring
And, even then, they only sing in the day
But love, it ain’t like a melody babe
Cause the birds don’t hang around
Well, everybody’s drilling for a fountain of youth
But sometimes in these fountains they drown
Sometimes in these fountains they drown
But I want to love you
When the blood of my veins
Don’t know how to call out your name
Yeah I want to love you
When the birds don’t hang around
But love it ain’t like the chemicals babe
Cause the chemicals don’t hang around
While everybody’s drilling for a fountain of youth
I am the cunning prince of thieves.
I am the nagging bite of teeth.
I am the tightest skirt unraveling
And the kiss upon you cheek.
Most lies, can put a man in a woman's burning fuse.
Closed eyes, can save a man from a woman's taste of fruit.
As long as you refuse to believe in the power, of cold showers,
You'll continue to excuse the receiving end of cowards.
I swear to the few who drowned in doubt.
And I've come here to warn you,
For the ghost can see you now.
Chemicals and cannibals,
This kiss becomes medical, yeah.
Chemicals and cannibals,
Well this kiss becomes medical, yeah.
Fire up the engines.
We're getting lost in her hair.
I can smell the sulfur burning sweet sex in the air.
Adrenaline and hormones become the pendulum inside your bones.
As long as you refuse to believe in the power, of cold showers,
You'll continue to excuse the receiving end of cowards.
As long as you refuse to believe in the power, of cold showers,
You'll continue to excuse the receiving end of cowards.
Adrenaline and hormones become the pendulum inside your bones.
Chemical and cannibals,
This kiss becomes medical, yeah.
Chemicals and cannibals,
And all the big machines can break
All the game it might be fake
Poison fingers on the hand you take
Keep your walk at a steady pace
Breathe in, watch for cracks
Be confident, keep off your back
All you say is all an act
Would you take it all back?
All your chemicals can change
Squeeze your head until it caves
Ohh, the point has been lost for days
Pull me back out
Get up off your knees
Desire is o.k. if you like to bleed
Slip inside the boredom
God I'm thinking
Get inside and cut them off
Choke them off again
Would you like to see all the smoked out machines?
Get in your holes
Get in your holes
All your chemicals can change
Squeeze your head until it caves
Ohh, the point has been lost for days
Pull me out
Squeeze your head until it caves
All your chemicals can change
Ohh, the point has been lost for days
Pull me out
So use the down machines to fix
The mess that your head has mixed
You're building walls and climbing flaws
It never changed a thing
Never changed a thing
Ohh, it never fixed a thing
You build the walls your climbing on
So Pull me out
Come on, pull me out
All your chemicals can change
Squeeze your head until it caves
Ohh, the point has been lost for days
Just another party where the people wanna dance alone
everybody's trying to have some fun
neonlights are buzzing round my head
i feel the sense of me
the sublime after-glow of inner peace
Just a tiny point lost in the universe
shaky on my knees
your turn me on, oh my! I still have a body
i come to see the world inside
where i won't feel the breeze
but there's one thing i don't believe in
and it's you
'cause i feel like i'm nothing in the world
maybe chemicals are losing
are losing you
somewhere in my head there is a little crack
the painful track of what i could have done before you
came along
a strange regret is what i get
the tables are turned
we're all gonna burn
i breathe no air
and everyone is there
for me
If only i could see please let me see again
when trouble comes i know for sure
the distance in your eye
i should be on your side
and you're cold cold like death
i opened the door
this time
I want you wrapped around my finger.
I want your name on my lips,
I want you headless.
I wanna crawl under your skin.
I promise you I'll find my way in.
Wont you sing for me,
Or will you continue to scream?
And love is nothing but, a fucking time bomb.
Why can't you find me?
This is nothing but an illusion, and its playing in your mind.
If we were all chemical then we'd head for the shoreline
And there it is again, the way you taste, the feel of your skin.
And we are so confused, this is the era when we feel used.
We are monsters, we are the terrible ones, we are monsters, we are used.
This is nothing but an illusion, and its playing in your mind.
If we were all chemical then we'd head for the shoreline.
This is nothing but an illusion, that's playing in your mind,
'Cause we are all chemical and, we're burning in your eyes...
I've come to terms with, whats been eating you. If love is ravenous...
Well it wants you, well it wants you.
There is a way, to find the things, that shes been hiding.
And her skin crawls, whenever, I'm beside her.
This is nothing but an illusion, and its buried in your mind.
If we were all chemical then we'd head for the shoreline.
This is nothing but an illusion, that's playing in your mind,
Well I Smacked Your Face
You Fell In Love
When I Said Fuck Your Mom
I Looked At You
Said It's All Over
I Turned Around And Walked Away
And You Just Grabbed My Arm
I Look At You Said
I Can't Stay Sober

The lies that you sell
They offend me
(You're the killer and the kisser)
Try to not tell
All my secrets
(Stop the pressure, hear the whisper)
Watching myself fade away
How long will I live so broken?
A fallen friend, no family
How long will I...
Keep, keep, keep failing
Can you tell that I hurt
It's critical
All I can smell is the burn
Of chemicals
And slowly losing sensation
Let me go, let me fight
Chemicals in my mind
Regret as I fall
For the sweet burn
(You're the killer and the kisser)
Inject as I crawl
To my Master
(Stop the pressure, hear the whisper)
Watching myself fade away
How long will I live so broken?
A fallen friend, no family
How long will I...
Keep, keep, keep failing
Can you tell that I hurt
It's critical
All I can smell is the burn
Of chemicals
And slowly losing sensation
Let me go, let me fight
Chemicals in my mind
Time missed
I guess I've never contemplated
All the time that I have missed
Time, stress
I guess I've never contemplated
All the time wasted in stress
Time missed
I guess I've never contemplated
All of it
Time, stress
I guess I've never contemplated
All of it
Can you tell that I hurt
It's critical
All I can smell is the burn
Of chemicals
And slowly losing sensation
Let me go, let me fight
Chemicals in my mind
I'm not a criminal
I hate the chemicals
I'm not a criminal
I hate the chemicals
I'M NOT A CRIMINAL
I HATE THE CHEMICALS
I'M NOT A CRIMINAL

(Verse)
Wide open skies, poisoned,
A paradise of progress, profit’s gain.
White parking lots, asphalt, traffic, exhaust,
Taste the acid rain.
(Verse)
I hope you know, who’ll reap what we sow,
Our children’s children’s kids.
We wanna to breathe in clean air,
We wanna swim in oceans blue and clear.
(Bridge)
Too busy turning blood to gold.
(Chorus)
Chemicals, chemicals, fall softly in the rain,
But I cannot find words to ease the pain.
Chemicals, chemicals, in each and every thing,
Take your chemicals now to ease the pain.
(Verse)
Drill baby drill, nevermind BP’s spill,
Sealife looks slick in black.
Trash islands float, fish kills soar, ice caps go,
Stocks rise, break out champagne!
(Verse)
We’ve just got one, ride around the sun,
It’s not your own trash can.
We’ve got to seize the moment, turn this around,
Take back the future now.
(Bridge)
Too busy turning blood to gold.
(Chorus)
Chemicals, chemicals, fall softly in the rain,
But I cannot find words to ease the pain.
Chemicals, chemicals, in each and every thing,
Chemical generation new slave nation,
go to bed with the lights on, cooperative men cry
every one else is a mad man but they look at me like I'm crazy
how do I know if she loves me when all I do is lie.
Drug the children just for peace it's ok,
watch amphibians boil and laugh as it all falls away...
Feeling so unnatural all these chemicals free radicals make my eyes sting,
Feeling so unnatural all these chemicals free radicals fortify me.
Try to define the line where the princess becomes a whore,
maybe I'm the latter but the choice of lay is mine,
sick of tasting bile and sick of fake happy faces
laugh until you cry until you throw it up again.
Feeling so unnatural all these chemicals free radicals make my eyes sting,
