Well I won't be caught living in a dead end job
While praying to my government guns and god
Cause it's us against them
We're here to represent
And spit right in the face of the establishment.

And now I don't believe
In having faith in nothing
Stand on my own
And got no sympathy
Wasting the youth
While being young and useless
Speak for yourself
And don't pray for me

Because we're doing fine and we don't need to be told
That we're doing fine and we won't give you control
And we don't need anything from you
Cause we'll be just fine and we won't be bought and sold
Just like you

(A call across the underclass)
Calling out loud with no respect
I'm not the one, I'm just another reject
I'm the voice to offend
All those who pretend
Unsung against the grain I'm here to rise against

And now I'm desensitized
I state my place in nowhere
Burning the flag of degeneration
Everyone sing the anthem of no future
Down with the mass 'cause we're not listening

We're the saints of degeneration
We don't owe anyone an explanation
F**k elitists we don't need this
We're the elite of just alright

. . .


I haven't been home for a while
I'm sure everything's the same
Mom and Dad both in denial
An only child to take the blame

Sorry, Mom, but I don't miss you
Father's no name you deserve
I'm just a kid with no ambitions
Wouldn't come home for the world

Never know what I've become
The king of all that's said and done
The forgotten son

This cities buried in defeat
I walk along these no-name streets
Wave goodbye to All.....

As I fall...

At the dead-end I begin
To burn a bridge of innocence
Satisfaction guaranteed
A pillow-weight catastrophe

Our own mission nowhere bound
Inhibitions underground
A shallow grave I
Have dug all by myself

And now I've been gone for so long
I can't remember who was wrong
All innocence is long gone
I pledge allegiance to a world of disbelief
Where I belong

A walking disaster
The son of all bastards
You regret you made me
It's too late to save me
(You regret you made me
It's too late to save me)

As far as I can tell
It's just voices in my head
Am I talking to myself?
'Cause I don't know what I just said

(And she said)
As far as where I fell
Maybe I'm better off dead
Am I at the end of nowhere
Is this as good as it gets?

And now I've been gone for so long
I can't remember who was wrong
All innocence is long gone
I pledge allegiance to a world of disbelief
Where I belong

A walking disaster
The son of all bastards
You regret you made me
It's too late to save me
(To save me, to save me, to save me, ...)

("It's too late") [x2]

To save me, to save me, to save me, to save me

And now I've been gone for so long
I can't remember who was wrong
All innocence is long gone
I pledge allegiance to a world of disbelief
Where I belong

A walking disaster
The son of all bastards
You regret you made me
It's too late to save me

I will be home in a while
You don't have to say a word
I can't wait to see you smile
Wouldn't miss it for the world

I will be home in a while
You don't have to say a word
I can't wait to see you smile
Wouldn't miss it for the world

. . .


Trying to find a way
Getting better every day
And I got you now I'm not alone
All I need in this life is one,
One thing to believe in.

I've seen many a face
From young and to old
I've stolen their faith and broken their souls
Was here before Christ had forgave you your sins
And paid your price and sealed your fate within.
But days have come to an end
Today's the day that we meet again
Self-inflicted inebriation guilt never lies, My love.

I've been waiting for the chance
To reunite this sick romance
The poison never hurt so good
So nice of you to speak of me
Your closest friend and enemy
And holy savior of masochist
Nothing but a dead end slave
From the altar to the grave
It's the last days of our lives in faith amen.

Time, it's been so long
And now there's nothing to say
I'm trying so hard to find the words to say
I'm tired of being something I'm not
I can't believe and I never thought
The days would come to an end
Maybe someday we'll meet again
But if that day never comes
It would be too soon.My love.

I've been waiting for the chance to nullify this sick romance
So pull the chord to detonate
So sick of you don't speak of me
The reverend saint of misery
And holy savior of masochist
Nothing but a dead end slave
From the altar to the grave
It's the last days of our lives in faith amen.
Nothing but a dead end slave
From the altar to the grave
It's the last days of our lives in faith amen.
Flying to find a way it's getting better everyday
And I got you now I'm not alone all I need in this file is one
One thing to believe in.

. . .



I address this letter to dear Father
I know you was complete unknown
I guess its better, you don't bother
All our truths should be left alone
(be left alone)
(be left alone)

I learned the things you never showed me
Took the chances you'd a blown
And to this day
The one and only
You remain a complete unknown
(complete unknown)
(complete unknown)

You're out there somewhere
I don't know if you care at all
It seems that you don't
It's as if the day will never come
So you remain a complete unknown

So many years have been ignored
You've been gone without a trace
I'm getting used to knowing your
Just a name without a face
(without a face)
(without a face)

You're out there somewhere
I don't know if you care, at all
It seems that you don't
It's as if the day will never come
So you remain a complete unknown

You're out there somewhere
I don't know if you care at all
It seems that you don't
It's as if the day will never come
So you remain a complete unknown

I address this letter to dear Father
I know you was complete unknown
I guess its better, you don't bother
All our truths should be left alone
You're out there somewhere
I don't know if you care, at all
It seems that you don't
It's as if the day will never come
So you remain a complete unknown

You're out there somewhere
I don't know if you care, at all
It seems that you don't
It's as if the day will never come
So you remain a complete unknown

You're out there somewhere
I don't know if you care

Last call for regret and defeat
To finish the bottle full of empty dreams
Punch-drunk headed straight out of line
Another excuse with no alibi
Hitching on the road of decline
With the no-name streets and no vital signs
I pissed away the best of me and no one can help me

I'm misery's best friend
Dead beat on a dead-end
A bag full of regrets and I'm coming clean
The self-elect resident project
A bad habit don't forget that you better
Count your last blessings
I fell off the wagon I'm chasing six feet
And now I'm running out of time

My hands are tied
And nailed to the cross
I'm looking for all the composure I lost
I'm petulant with a bad attitude
A poster-child vision of wasted youth
I dodged the book and found the key
I can't say the same for dignity
I pissed away the best of me and
No one can help me

I'm misery's best friend
Dead beat on a dead end
A bag full of regrets and I'm coming clean
The self-elect resident reject
A bad habit don't forget that you better
Count your last blessings
I fell of the wagon I'm chasing six feet
And now I'm running out of time

Now I'm my own enemy
I don't hear you now
Perfect tragedy
God bless us denial

. . .



Tu es ma mademoiselle
Tu es ma petite poubelle
Je chercherai des ordures pour toi
Et je commencerai dedans mes pantalons

Dans votre oeil se trouve une petite pleur
Mais je ne suis pas un autre coeur
Tu sais tu es ma petite fleur
Avec une plotte qui est comme du beurre

. . .



Ladies and gentlemen of the underclass,
The president of the United States of America is dead!

I don't believe in the politics of chosen fools and hypocrites,
Who walk a line that's tread so fine,
Is it death or glory you have in mind?

And here we go, it's mass delusion,
And no one knows, who leads the revolution now
As tension grows, the way to a conclusion,
It's too late there's no time
All for none, none for one, two, three, four

March of the dogs to a beat disillusion
Sworn under God, breeding panic and confusion
The white flag is down, send in the clowns
The carnival of sins is now about to begin

It may be I'm a pessimist,
I'd say we need an exorcist,
The root of all evil's standing tall,
Under God and above us all,

And here we go again in desperation,
And all we know is confusion and frustration now
As tension grows no vision of salvation
It's too late there's no time

And now the president's dead,
Because they blew off his head,
No more neck to be red,
Guess to heaven he fled,
Was it something he said,
Or because of who's in his bed,
By whom will we be led?
From whose hand will we be fed?
All the lies by the lying liars who said
We'll be fine,
It's OK,
Hey look mom no head

. . .



A jester of sorts
You stand holding your courts
Over minions on Capital Hill
In a bath full of blood
I'm alone, standing still
Under God you can fire at will

When the devil's angels come
To take your life and lead you
To the flames beneath
Your headstone reads now
Here lies the dead who was,
Hung by his head beneath us,
They're laying in their graves,
Damnation free for all

A prodigal son can't undo what he's done
A figurehead of capital crime
With a light shining down
As you fall to your knees
To repent would be nothing but lies

When the devil's angels come
Take your life and lead you
To the flames beneath
Your headstone reads now
Here lies the dead who was,
Hung by his head beneath us,
They're laying in their graves,
Damnation free for all

Deadbeat six feet dead underground
An eye for an eye only leaves us all blind
Going once twice there goes your life

. . .



I don't want this moment to ever end
'Cause everything's nothing without you
I'd wait here forever just to see you smile
Cause it's true I am nothing without you

Through it all
I've made my mistakes
I stumble and fall
But I mean these words

I want you to know
With everything, I won't let this go
These words are my heart and soul
I'll hold onto this moment you know
As I'll bleed my heart to show
And I won't let go

Thoughts read unspoken
Forever in vow
And pieces of memories
Fall to the ground
I know what I didn't have so I won't let this go
Cause it's true I am nothing without you
All these streets, that I walked alone
With nowhere to go
Have come to an end

In front of your eyes
It falls from the skies
When you don't know what you're looking to find

. . .



Pull the curtain, begin
Paranoia's wearing thin now
It's wearing thin now
Close my eyes, realize
I've become the victimized now
Desensitized now
The one and only day has come
I pay for all the bad things I've done

Something's wrong because I find the glamour
In the darkside, In the darkside
Cheap regrets, can't forget
Falling victim to the debts still unpaid in my mind
The one and only day has come
I' pay for all the bad things I've done

It's gonna take me, you don't know tragedy
I've been to hell and back again to tell
Close my eyes and lay me down to sleep
I fear the worst my beating heart ticks to explode
My time is up so
Why can't I just sleep

Living dead awake, the horror show begins
So pull the curtains over me
Bring on the panic
The uncontrolling and manic
It's a free-for-all kill them all every last one of them
I don't care at all

Suffocate the dreams in my mind
Drown the thoughts that have me confined
Gutter dreams as black as the night
No one told me empathy's a lie
(background)
My last words I'm choking
Are all my dreams broken
The silence is deafening
My ears won't stop ringing

. . .



I've dethroned the king of contradiction
Or were you just a jester all along a simple pawn
Don't you know you can't count your tears like your money
Running down like rain in the drain

You don't need to pray for me 'cause I'm not the one to blame
I can't wait to see you going down in flames
How could it be know not what we've became
You lost the human race

I hope you burn like a cigarette in ashes
As your head comes down and crashes
Your throat pours blood from slashes
And I hope you never forget like a tattoo of regret this time, this time

You don't need to pray for me cause I'm not the one to blame
I can't wait to see you going down in flames
How could it be know not what we've became
You lost the human race

You're replaced now
Was nice to know you
Now your time is up so
Just drop dead

. . .



It's so hard to say that
I'm sorry
I'll make everything alright

All these things that I've done
What have I become, and where did I go wrong?
I don't mean to hurt, just to put you first
I won't tell you lies
I will stand accused with my hand on my heart
I'm just trying to say

I'm sorry
It's all that I can say
You mean so much
And I'd fix all that I've done
If I could start again
I'd throw it all away
To the shadows of regrets
And you would have the best of me

I know that I can't take back all of the mistakes
But I will try
Although it's not easy
I know you believe me
Don't believe their lies
Told from jealous eyes
They don't understand
I won't break your heart
I won't bring you down
But I will have to say

I'm sorry
It's all that I can say
You mean so much
And I'd fix all that I've done
If I could start again
I'd throw it all away
To the shadows of regrets
And you would have the best of me

. . .



Up in smoke pop goes the culture
The tension blew it up
While choking from a bleeding ulcer
We eventually thew it up
So what went wrong
Where's the voice of reason
It's long gone
We lost it long ago
Apathy plus-sized filled the void of motivation
I can hardly breathe at all

Confusion's all I see
Frustration surrounds me
Solution's bid farewell
Sedation? What the hell

I broke the mirror to the past
To find what I was looking for
The bleeding heart of broken glass
Is all I found and nothing more regrets
Short of no correction
Paid my debts to anxiety
The iron lung collapsed from the pressure and the swelling
I can hardly breathe at all

Confusion's all I see
Frustration surrounds me
Solution's bid farewell
Sedation? What the hell

Dead end roads with warning signs
Destination nowhere in sight

Divided we stand together we fall
There isn't a god that can save us all
So don't pray on your knees
Just beg on your hands
There is no belief
In this promised land

. . .


Time passes by direction unknown.
You've left us now but we're not alone.
Before you know it, your cup's overflowin'
You measure no one that I've ever known.

And it's quite alright
And goodbye for now.
Just look up to the stars and believe who you are,
'Cause it's quite alright
And so long goodbye.

We always knew that it would come to this,
It's times like these I forget what I miss.
Matters of heart are hard to address,
Especially when yours is full of emptiness.

And it's quite alright
And goodbye for now.
Just look up to the stars and believe who you are,
'Cause it's quite alright
And so long goodbye
