Youre not even a person you are faking what you believe in
and this fakeness doesnt grow, it just smells all the same
and it stays stale

yes i see what it's doing to me,
still i won't let go, no i won't let go of it
all this choice and you're still missing the point,
no you just couldn't see, no you just couldn't see it
you've blown your chance and now it's out of your hands,
how the mob it spoke, and my heart just broke apart
and now you're gone, it seems life just moves on,
there's no stopping me, no there's no stopping me
i've gotta let him go
like a lamb to the slaughter
yes i feel like i've crushed another
can he adjust? can he recover?
and now i see that i grew weak at the knees
i'm not strong enough to carry another
you've blown your chance and now its out of my hands
how the show it goes on and my heart it just broke apart
when we were young it seems that life just rolls on
now it's just a memory, it's just a memory

AMIT
04:08

|

Caught in the current of a circumstance
pullin me off course at every chance
a chance to rest my mind
give me my piece of mind
take from me a little more
till I find I cannot reassure
all I have is a moment in time
there goes my piece of mind
stretched out in the bed Iv made
dreaming of rhyme and accolade
Im not ready to face the day
Im not ready to face my pain
I dare not turn you away
I dont mean to push you away
but I need some peace of mind
all I have is a moment in time

And I Go

And I Go
Keep thundering on through the misty times
Finding my steps hide
from my eyes
when Im looking down
to the ground
Dont leave us, dont leave us just yet
youve got to get thru whatever it is you need to get thru
and when Life gets you down
slave points are not around, their not around
we all see that now, something so simple will keep us down.
survive it how?
make not a sound, accept this
And I Go
Keep thundering on through the misty times
Finding my steps hide
from my eyes
when Im looking down
to the ground
but its breathing down my neck,
I sweat and I cry because Im scared of loosing it
but I dont know why,
I have a will to survive and a strength inside
and now I realise,
and I realise how much is locked up tight
So I Go
and i know, i can't shut it out there's no escaping it, now now
where we go, i can't shut it off there's no escaping it
and i know a test of my strength is coming, i cannot watch them go
to the wind or below

Bring the Pain
I know she wants bring the pain today
but I, I cannot let her break me again
it wont work on me this time,
but that doesnt mean a thing
what she is trying to do to me
get under my skin
it could have worked back then when it meant something
shes just trying to get under my skin
its all about you
Just go ahead and bring the pain
why cant you bring the pain on a different day
despicable woman, who are you?
i never got to know you because you couldn't be true
you bore my child but you couldn't bear truth
you didn't love me so i couldn't love you (how's this for truth?)
and now you lie with an old fool who thinks that it's cool to call himself a
minion of the beast
what kind of lunacy is this?
if i could walk away, you know i would
but i'm tied to you woman, i'm tied to you woman,
you say i've got my problems and you're right, i do
ten long years and i never knew a women scorned could be so cruel
same shit on a different day
come ahead girl, bring the pain
come ahead world, come and bring the pain
it's all about the pain
bring the pain
Its all about the pain
Iv had enough of this and now I swear Im done

Craving

Your prisons full and your cities glow
theres nowhere left for you to go
theyve taken your house theyve taken your home
they gave you an alter to buy what you own
this is a game that you cannot win
but youre forced like a slave to take part in
you do what youre told, youre told how to feel
your life feels contained everything else is surreal
(you runnin and you hunt
your runnin them down
run hunt run hunt run)
accept a fate where you feel all alone
and the only thoughts that you can condone are your own
on your own and your own best friend
is the craving that you get in your belly
when you fend for yourself
so much better than the next shelf life piece of shit
that enters your body from the corporate tit
I hope you suck it hard and get the fuck what you want
I hope you find the happiness that you craved all along

Cure me
Im questioning who I am, and finding ways to understand why
I am here and where to go, theres many things Iv come to know like
if you should turn to me, my love is only temporary
if you so wish to do for me dont, tear me away from my dreams
Cure me
and so they tell me I am free
they tell me there is time
they told me i was born
they tell me I will die
would I feel this alone
would I sink so low
could I confront my fears
forgive myself the cause
Oh what a wonderous dream this life could be
the universe discovering itself
Oh what a wonderous dream this life could be
time is a meaningless measurement of death
simple truths arent hard to find
in stories told as old as time and
Im not afraid to draw the line no
Wont live in fear of where to die no
drifting on and in and out
shifting all my dreams around them
I know my time is running out
I wont let fear control me now
and so they tell me I am free
they tell me there is time
they told me i was born
they tell me I will die
would I feel this alone
would I sink so low
could I confront my fears
forgive myself the cause
Oh what a wonderous dream this life could be
the universe discovering itself
Oh what a wonderous dream this life could be
time is a meaningless measurement of death
cure me
carve me
serve me
devour me
kill me
kiure me

Darken Down
11:12

|

serpent tongues tell me i am free
while fat cats buy up my liberty
modern shamans whore mass medications
to a deranged and frightened nation
spirituality becomes a mockery
we turn to drink and drugs so easily
rushing to adulthood with an expectation of possibility
stop dead in your tracks
debt, 9 to 5, tow the line, pay your tax
you never could imagine such strife
wave goodbye to the big dreams in your life
darken down
poisoned gruel spewed from industries
disinformation clogs my arteries
corporate hawks scheme annihilation
while the media monger indoctrination
can revolution be the solution
*something* preach our rules and regulations
*something* the promise land
for the atonement of earth's retaliation
why deny the shifting tide
waste, toxify, desecrate ocean and sky
you never could imagine such vice
wave goodbye to the conscience in your life

This renegade tries to own
this life he cant control
theres no way out nor thru
this rising tide consumes
his life begins to change
hes never felt so strange
theres nothing he can say nor do
will get him closer to
this life he wants to live
hes got nothing to give
and nothing to do
cos lifes so good
hes got nothing to say
got nothing to say
and a nothing to do
cos a lifes so good
wants to get away
just get away
I cant get thru
cos your lifes no good
just what do you do
when your lives been consumed
in the dark of the day
of a life so good
(in the dark of the day)
oh you think and you feel it
(in the dark of the day)
got nothing to do
(in the dark of the day)
oh you think and you feel it
(in the dark of the day)
cos lifes so good

Still Tumbling

Tum-Tumbling down to the dark again
as I fool around soul searching
never cease never stop always going on top
gotta fight gotta win be the best get in
Tum-Tumbling into the dark again
got nowhere to turn such a silly thing
find peace in the smallest of things
escape has never been so easy to do
Stum-Stumbling down into the darkness through
all the shit all the dross that was left by you
gotta pitch gotta chip bodies in my way
as I push every step, every breath, every blink
oh I gotta think
Oh Iv gotta pay to think
Tum-tumbling down
Tum-Tumbling down and I feel the pull
cant shake the feeling its inevitable
that I would come so far to feel this way again
like I did at the start
Crumb-Crumbling down over another you
how could I have played such a silly fool
find sweetness in the smallest of things
but bitterness is all I sing
cos Im on the brink
bitterness is all I sing

another whitewash
blow-back and another whitewash
the government doesn't represent me
shady arms deals and illegal wars
secrets and tyranny, secrets and tyranny
the empire still clinging on with the monarchy
still leaching land through sanctions and taxes
business transactions, collateral damage
Washington, London, Brussels or Beijing
they're all the same damn crooks and peddlers to me
leave me alone, yes i'm aware
but what can i do and what do i care?
you're a human being
where are your feelings?
where is compassion your share of accountability?
cast la vie, life's too short
and complicated, there's nothing anyone can do
you're a human being
use some imagination and some innovation
i'm drowning in your apathy
another whitewash
war crimes and another whitewash
genocide and another whitewash
corruption and another whitewash
blow-back and another whitewash

You Got It Going On

here he comes its the warrior ape
and he hits the town
fueled by his scars and one too many jars
and he's out on the prowl, looking around to come full circle
to become twisted fate, to become what he hates
just another abuser, an uptight loser with his rage unleashed
to throw his fists around is his only release
don't vent, just repent for your unprovoked violent intent
there's nothing alpha about you boy, there's no territory to protect
you've no bitch to infect with your defective jism,
we've evolved beyond Darwinism, this isn't planet of the fucking apes
you're no heavyweight
this is no UFC competition
you're just another bully boy who is now a man who cant understand his pain
or exercise restraint or set aside his hate
and through it all do you ever ask yourself why?
Youve got some left over monkey shit going on in your brain
I thought we were supposed to evolve motherfucker (youve got it going on)
Alpha, beta, lowest common denominator
attributions, skillsets, using yer hied!
Hurdles obstacles problems situations
Are we not meant to move on (how do we get past this)
I thought communications was our finest attribute
Language, creation, mind masturbation
are you stuck with sticks and stones?
Someone else has broken your bones so youll do the same to me?
save your energy please
find some other alpha fudd, to fuck your shit up
you got it
youve got it going on
