Fist up in our faces,
how did we end up here?
Standing in police lines,
don't you know who I am?

I hang out with all the Pariahs,
everyone is almost done with me.

This'll be our name,
yeah this'll be our name.
So listen the buck stops here,
or I'm gonna lose it now.

M-A-L, is that too personal?
Gimme an M-A-L, we're international.

I hang out with all the Pariahs,
everyone is almost done with me.
I hang out with the Pariahs,
everyone has had their fun with me.

The world is really gonna love you,
The world is really gonna love you.

I promise you, just like I do.

The world is really gonna love you,
The world is really gonna love you.

The world loves you.

i want your body
i want your brains
i want your soul, brother
on a thirsty desert plain
or the evening in the jungle
face down in a lagoon
or a tough fight with your best friends
if there's any room

nobody wants you
but we want you
nobody wants you
but we want you
nobody wants you
but we want you
nobody wants you
but we want you

body
brains
soul
brother

just when you think you've had enough
here comes more death from up above
we can't go home
'til we know we're gonna win
we can't go home
'til we know
we're gonna know
we're gonna know
we're gonna win
we're gonna win

nobody wants you
but we want you
nobody wants you
but we want you
nobody wants you
but we want you
nobody wants you
but we want you
nobody wants you
nobody wants you
(but we want you)
nobody wants you
nobody wants you
(but we want you)
nobody wants you
nobody wants you
(but we want you)


. . .



all the time is gone
along with everything you loved, forever

you can try to break my heart
it'll never be enough
and you can try to burn this heart to the ground
it just won't be enough

yet they work so hard
to destroy what's left of our lives
but we're gonna take it all
we're gonna take it all to town

you can try to break my heart
it'll never be enough
and surely you'll try to wreck this heart
but it's just a little bit too tough
oh yeah

oh yeah

we'll find our place in the world
it could take all day and all night
we'll find our place in the world
if it takes all day and all night
oh yeah

'til your last breath
you will hate this heart
just don't hate anyone
'cause you hate yourself
'til your last breath
you will hate this heart
just don't hate everyone
'cause you hate yourself
and you'll hate everyone
'til there's no one else
i believe i believe
i believe in you

i swear i swear
i swear it to you
i swear i swear
i swear it to you
i swear i swear
i swear it to you
i swear i swear
i swear it to you
i swear i swear
i swear it to you
i swear i swear
i swear it to you

i swear it to you
i swear it to you


. . .



All right, all right already you got me
Broke inside and took it all away
Had a speech prepared and everything
Tapped phone calls from God

And now I've found a new connection
Being bored is really such a chore
Some of us out here don't know shit
Some of us don't even want to know

Clearly this is my life
There goes, there goes, there goes my outfit
And I was only trying to help
I was only trying to help

Just admit, I've got you by the lapels
They trashed me over over and again
You stood there and you said nothing
That's what shattered my heart to bits

Clearly this isn't my life
I'm in the dirt and in the gutter
I've got mud and blood all over my face
Clearly this isn't my life
There goes, there goes, there goes, there goes my outfit
And I was only trying to help

Clearly this isn't my life
Clearly this can't be my life


. . .



this was our mistake
yet another horrible mistake
we've more than settled here
waging war, inciting fear

i'm trying to remember
just trying to remember
we are feeling so alone
we are feeling so erroneously alone
and i know what we have here
yes i know that we've got
the best thing going on

i'm trying to remember
just trying to remember
when we had control
when we let it go

why can't everyone
live out happily ever after
this ain't happening
don't fall to pieces now

i'm trying to remember
just trying to remember
heaven knows all my mistakes
heaven knows that i'm mistaken
heaven knows that i'm a freak
heaven knows what we are making here
everything we hold
everything we hold
everything we hold
everything we hold


. . .



you're trying to pretend
to love
all those people that you think are
beneath you

and there is no known doubt
that they got guns in their hands
there is no known doubt
that they got guns in their hands

'cause the whole world lives in fear
said the whole world lives in fear

and i know it
i know it
i know it
i know it
i know
i know in my bones

i know it
i know it
i know it
i know it
i know
i know in my bones

no it's not a question of loss
it's not a question of win
oh no
oh no
and no never mind the cost
or even how we get in
oh no
oh no
now i don't want you to feel so bad
no i don't want you to feel so bad
that's not what i want

we'll be okay
we're all okay
we'll be okay
we're all okay


. . .



Every single one of us is getting
massacred on a frozen path
Fever comes to wipe us out
and scratch your name off of a list

You and I are on the outside
of almost everything
You and I are on the other side
of almost everything

They were slurring words and acting like
a bunch of animals every given day
Never read or hardly wrote
but signed an 'x' once in blood

You and I are on the outside
of almost everything
You and I are on the other side
of almost everything

Cause we
We got the same heart
And we
We got the same heart

We
We got the same heart
We
We got the same heart (x2)

You and I are on the outside
of all of this
You and I are on the other side
of all of this

You and I are on the outside
of all of this
You and I

You and I (x5)


. . .



I wanna know how you did it
you waltzed right past the door
while we struggled here at the gates and can't get through
we could've followed you
and maybe looked like fools
but who cares we'd still be true
we'd still be true

we ain't here to steal your women
well, at least that wasn't the plan
there's that closet smell
makes you think you've
been inside there too long
you're almost mystical
and i'm impossible
we need a miracle
a miracle

don't say i'm paranoid
it's more like just annoyed
maybe a bit destroyed
a bit destroyed
and there's nowhere else for us to run
and our time has sure as hell become
and life has just begun
it's just begun


. . .



well i thought that
we all cared about peace
and i thought that
we'd all cry about love and loss
and i thought that
we were somehow holding on
but i'm just standing here

no one should have to
live all of their life on their own
no one should have to
live all of their life on the

every time i think about
what i can do
it just slips away
and every time i think that
we can make things work
well it just slips away
and i turn on the news
and there's always some dude
who's relentlessly bringing me down
telling me how
there are too many
dark people out there
who'll never be found
well

no one should have to
live all of their life on their own
no one should have to
live all of their life on their own
no one should have to
live that sort of life and i
think it's time that
we all learned forgiveness

and i can't believe the
vast amounts of people
living on the streets
and i can't believe that
i was almost one of them
and i almost died
and i can't believe that
i haven't lifted a hand
and i'm just standing here
well i'm gonna change
i'm gonna change
i'm gonna change
i'm gonna change
i'm gonna change
i'm gonna change
i'm gonna change
i'm gonna change
i'm gonna change

no one should have to
live all of their life on their own
no one should have to
live all of their life on their own
no one should have to
live all of their life on their own
no one should have to
live all of their life on their own


. . .



I fell deep, through the holes of your eyes
and what I found resembles dark signs
The kind of hell I'm in ain't enough to keep me down
the kind of hell I'm in just ain't enough
just ain't enough to keep me down

Still I cry and I cry and I cry
cause there is no turning back
I said I cry and I cry and I cry
cause there is no turning back

What's this that you have
you can't expect for us to raise a finger for no cash
oh no oh
so take this hall, turn to the left and follow the signs
find out what we're not supposed to know
those doors are locked from the outside
don't let that stop you from busting out

we're busting out [5x]
busting out

The Highest

[No lyrics]

. . .


Well I'm taking myself out of it
for good this time.
I can't stand the thought of it
and it's always on my mind.

And we could've found a better way
and that always seems to be.
And I realized it's not about you
it's about me.

And the telephone is ringing
it's a not identified call.
I figured I should answer it
it's just no use hiding at all.
Who's there? It's your only friend,
the one you've left in the dust.
Oh I don't know what you're talking about,
talking about.

You used to call most every day,
now you won't recognize my voice.
You asked for things in urgency
giving me little choice.
Remember when she died
then you were right, it was my fault.
Oh how could you think I could raise the dead?
Raise the dead!

Hey I don't have to listen to your bullshit anymore!
You see the truth of the matter is:
You were never there.

And we could've found a better way
and that always seems to be.
And I realized it's not about you
it's about me.
