Sabotage (Beastie Boys cover)
. . .


Cold as I am, I'm just doing my best
The best that I can, I'm just needing some rest
The rest I know I've needed much too much

Can you help me, pulling me down
Save my soul, dragging me down
I can't take this hurt

Oh and I'm so tired - one of these days
Oh and I'm so tired - sleep this away

Suffered this far
Might as well just suffer some more
The more that I take
You know the further I'll fall
Eyes to the sky - I've got my eyes to the sky
One more day to end
For me to just end with the night

Can you help me
Pulling me down
Save my soul
Dragging me down down down
It's pulling me down down down

Oh and I'm so tired - one of these days
Oh and I'm so tired - sleep this away
I'll sleep I'll sleep this away

Trust No One Lyrics
Send "Trust No One" Ringtone to your Cell
The system is fucked, things aren't fine
Out of control, the world's lost its mind
I know this sounds like some trash from the right
My compassion was stolen and smoked in a pipe

Deception and fraud
Too many acts to mention
Pushed to the end this is my declaration
Lost, lost, lost, I lost my faith
Lost, lost, trust no one

Learned from mistakes, the lesson was hard
Forecast misfortune, live on your guard
I'm not as negative as all this sounds
I just feel like humanity has let me down

Deception and fraud
Too many acts to mention
Pushed to the end this is my declaration
Lost, lost, lost, I lost my faith
Lost, lost, I lost my faith in the world

Rob me at gun point, with crowbars and knives
Don't care anymore, been robbed my whole life

. . .


Questioned, until I found what's mine
Only given so many option, promised to work out fine
Brought up, taught what to say
We're all raised in tradition, waking up everyday
There came a chance, that I took and ran
Questioned my conscience, stopped going along
There came a point where it all made sense
If what you have is right then I'll die being wrong
Dead wrong, dead wrong
If what you have is right then I'll die being wrong
Dead wrong, dead wrong, wrong for the rest of my life

Hatred, in everything you've got
When it all came crashing down, realized you got caught
There came a chance, that I took and ran
Questioned convention, stopped moving along
There came a point where it all made sense
If what you have is right then I'll die being wrong
Dead wrong, dead wrong
If what you have is right then I'll die being wrong
Dead wrong, dead wrong, wrong for the rest of my life

I was told it would work, taught to accept
I was told it would work, taught to hold my breath
Own your future, your own misery is your own design
Own your future, your own happiness is yours to decide
Own your future, live dead wrong

. . .


Calculations, unsolved, I'll sort it out at the end
Apprehensions, dissolved, just dive right in
Let it out, what's the worst that could happen
Let it out, it either works or it don't
Let it out, there's no telling the best time
Because time is just the ticking of a clock... man
I'd rather get burned, than never have tried

Calculations, uninvolved, this is a current affair
Apprehensions, not at all, we ain't racing to anywhere
Let it out, what's the worst that could happen
Let it out, it either works or it don't
Let it out, just enjoy the ride
Because it's not the destination it's the trip... man
I'd rather get burned, than never have tried

Doomed to fail, I'll always be
Doomed to fail if I don't even try
I'd rather get burned
Than never have tried

. . .


Some people called me a nihilist
Say I don't believe in a thing
I know that can't be true, 'cus baby I believe in you
Cold dark eyes, the deeper they stare, underrate me, I don't even care
Pass your judgement, or leave me alone, just hurry up and decide
I'm done caring what anyone thinks, I'll just carry on living my life
These misconceptions, you've got so wrong
These misconceptions

In this life, I want nothing, expect nothing, never let down
In this life, I want nothing, but the truth I know I've found
Cold dark eyes, why do they care
Don't understand me, like I'm not even there
On the outside, looking right out, to tell you the truth I'm just fine
I'm not caught up in anyone's standards, I'm just looking out keeping what's mine
These misconceptions, you've got so wrong
These misconceptions
On my death bed, when I look back, I want to know that I lived for myself
On my death bed, when I look back, I'll know I lived my life for nobody else

Some people called me a nihilist, say I don't believe in a thing
I know that can't be true, 'cus baby I believe in you
You can call me a nihilist, you can call me whatever you want
I know it can't be true, 'cus baby I believe in you

. . .


The brightest outlook, the darkest souls
Bound together, so no one falls
Still unbroken, never fading
Down forever, we are the undead
Time can't change us, out of order
Liberated, we are the undead

I swear on my life, hope never to die
We're all gonna live forever
I swear on my life, hope never to die

Dead already, just killing time
Walking corpses, just fall in line
Still unbroken, never fading
Down forever. we are the undead
Time can't change us, out of order
Liberated, we are the undead

I swear on my life, hope never to die
We're all gonna live forever
I swear on my life, hope never to die
We're gonna outlive you all

Cold hands of death, stay out of reach
Dead like the rest, never taking me
Bury us, you'll never bury us
Forever living, not a passing trend
A pact in blood, till the bitter end
Still unbroken, never fading
Down forever, we are the undead
Time can't change us, out of order
Liberated, we are the undead

I swear on my life, hope never to die
We're all gonna live forever
I swear on my life, hope never to die
We're gonna outlive you all

. . .


I've never seen these things so clear
Scared in the face of the things I fear
Petrified I lost my breath
I'm scared, I'm scared
Stuck on the thought of having nothing left
I'm scared, I'm scared

I've never seen these things so clear
These words I speak I'm being sincere
Electrified straight from the heart
I'm scared, I'm scared
Right on the brink of being torn apart
I'm scared, I'm scared

All the facts that I've been shown
I'm scared to death of dying alone
Hold me closer than I've ever known
I'm scared to death of dying alone

Hold me closer
If you'd kill for me I'd die for you
Ask me now I'd say I do
If you'd kill for me I'd die for you

I wanna kill everything I fear
I'm scared, I'm scared
I wanna kill off all my fear

All the facts that I've been shown
I'm scared to death of dying alone
Every chance that I've been thrown
I'm scared to death of dying alone
Everyone is screaming, everyone's crying
If I didn't feel it you know I'm lying
So hold me closer than I've ever known
I'm scared to death of dying along

Hold me closer
If you'd kill for me I'd die for you
Ask me now I'd say I do
If you'd kill for me I'd die for you

. . .


Darkness live, in the heart of me
Deep inside us all, darkness lives
The thrill to kill like a love song
The lust in us to destroy
To strike the life from another, rise above, never let this take you
Don't you fear this hate's not breaking free
Don't you fear my rage won't anchor me

Darkness lives, in the heart of me
Deep inside us all, darkness lives
Want to crush every part of you, broken bones and all
I'd love to watch you suffer, rise above, never let this take you
Don't you fear this hate's not breaking free
Don't you fear my rage won't anchor me
Strength is clear, from this darkness we all fear
Own the hatred at the deepest of your core
There's no escape from this anger
From what we all have inside
It's in us all, in us all, in us all
Never let this take you
Don't you fear this hate's not breaking free
Don't you fear my rage won't anchor me
Darkness lives, in the heart of me
Deep inside us all, darkness lives

. . .


The real you is wasted, your actions in vain
You beat down your passions for financial gain
You're missing the point, you've forgotten your name
Don't make excuses, don't give me reasons
No explanations, no one cares
You're oh so convincing
You lie to yourself
Caught in the thinking of everyone else
All for the gamble of wealth
Compromise, compromise yourself
Compromise, compromise, you'll sell your soul

On the outside you're fine
You're owning your role
Manufacturing smile is just getting so old
How long can you last 'til this all takes its toll
Don't make excuses, don't give me reasons
No explanations, no one cares
You've come now so far, the way that you act
You know in our heart what you wish could take back
But you've drifted so far from the tracks
Compromise, compromise yourself
Compromise, compromise, you'll sell your soul

You're gonna sell your soul
Your reasons, deceiving
Your actions, misleading
You've got your price, forgot your past
Now that you're here, there's no turning back

. . .


In my history, certain things kept inside
In my life time, certain actions, I don't take pride
Push it away, my solution, as a constant, every time
Communication, break all ties, without a single shred of remorse
Block all contact, stay my course
Push it away, my reaction, without failure, everytime
Block it right out, every person, every problem
Tired of just running away, time to confront what's mine
No resolution, nothing solved, with no closure, legs left to stand
Allow all distractions, take my command
Push it away, out of instinct, my survival, every time
Block it right out, every person, every problem
Tired of just running away, time to confront what's mine
I'll make amends, try to make things right
I'll make amends, try to own what's mine
I'll make amends, may take forever, at least it's a start
I'll make amends, may take a lifetime, at least it's a start
My history, will not, repeat itself
Push it away, won't take this road, push it away
Tired of just running away, time to confront what's mine

. . .


So sick of this culture
Sick and tired of the tired and weak
Nothing new on the market
So sick of the words you speak
I'm such a skeptic, so cold, when did I get so faded

Undecided, unsold, when did I get so bored
Half-hearted, fake gold, I'll give this body, this soul
Half-hearted, fake gold, I'll bleed 'til this blood runs cold
So sick of these vandals
All this destruction just looks the same
I thought that noise was danger
Now you're out just pushing brand names
Am I an asshole?
Or just old?
When did I get so jaded?

Undecided, unsold, when did I get so bored
Half-hearted, fake gold, I'll give this body, this soul
Half-hearted, fake gold, I'll bleed 'til this blood runs cold
Overrated
I'm so sick and tired of all this shit

. . .


Longest distance, length of time
I never said that his was easy
Common sense, left behind
Got myself to drive me crazy
This distance is killing me
Dropped line and I'm losing my mind
Everything's perfect, everything's fine
Why can't I shake this feeling

Alive in the daylight, alone in the dark
We'll always only ever be an ocean apart

Too many hours, too many miles
I swear I'll count the days
Drifting further, further away
So many things wish I could say
This distance is killing me
Piece of static just saved my life
One last night, just one last time
I can keep this going

Alive in the daylight, alone in the dark
We'll always only ever be an ocean apart

Lost connection, lost connection
No matter how I try I swear I hate goodbyes
Lost connection, lost connection
Under the darkest skies I swear I hate goodbyes

Left and leaving, left behind
Do my best to keep this working
Tired of waking, waking up tired
Dead brain, driving me insane
This distance is killing me
Despise, I curse every sunrise
Out of reach, just out of touch
Only thing I know for certain

Alive in the daylight, alone in the dark
We'll always only ever be an ocean apart

Lost connection, lost connection
No matter how I try I swear I hate goodbyes
Lost connection
Under the darkest skies I swear I hate goodbyes

. . .


Set straight for the first time
Taught from the start right from wrong
Led by example shown to be strong
On how to act, and to carry on

My mother raised me, to be a gentle man
And I know I am my father's son
I'll always be keeping on, on and on
Hard work was the best of traits
And to lend a hand whenever you can
If it was never broken, no need to fix
If it needed mending, learn to stitch

My mother raised me a resourceful man
And I know I am my father's son
Without a foundation and sights set so clear, I would fail
I know that I could not have made it to here, I would fail
All that you gave me came straight from the heart, I would fail
Without all the love that you gave from the start, I would fail
I'll always be keeping my head up high
I'll always be keeping on, on and on

Set straight from the first time
It's a credit to you I never went astray
Last time I checked, I was doing fine
Last time I checked, I hadn't lost my mind
My mother raised me, the best that she could
And I know I am my father's son

. . .


(Beastie Boys cover)

I can't stand it, I know you planned it
I'm a' set straight, this Watergate
I can't stand rocking when I'm in here
'Cause your crystal ball ain't so crystal clear
So while you sit back and wonder why
I got this fuckin' thorn in my side
Oh my god, it's a mirage
I'm tellin' y'all it's sabotage

So listen up 'cause you can't say nothin'
You'll shut me down with a push of your button
But I'm out and I'm gone
I'll tell you now I keep it on and on

'Cause what you see you might not get
And we can bet so don't you get souped yet
You're scheming on a thing that's a mirage
I'm trying to tell you now it's sabotage

Whyyyyyyyyyyy!?
Our backs are now against the wall
Listen all of y'all it's a sabotage
Listen all of y'all it's a sabotage
Listen all of y'all it's a sabotage
Listen all of y'all it's a sabotage

I can't stand it, I know you planned it
I'm a' set straight this Watergate
I can't stand rockin' when I'm in this place
Because I feel disgraced because you're all in my face
But make no mistakes and switch up my channel
I'm Buddy Rich when I fly off the handle
What could it be, it's a mirage
You're scheming on a thing, that's sabotage
