This time, taking it away.
I've got a problem.
With me getting in the way.
Not by design.
So, I take my face and bash it into a mirror.
I won't have to see the pain.
Bleed.
Bleed.
This state is elevating, as the hurt turns into hating.
Anticipating all the fucked up feelings again!
*chorus*
The hurt inside is fading.
This shit's gone way too far.
All this time I've been waiting-
Oh, I cannot grieve anymore.
For what's inside awaking.
I'm done, I'm not a whore.
You've taken everything, and oh I cannot give anymore.
My mind's done with this, ok?
I've got a question:
Can I throw it all away?
Take back what's mine.
So, I take my time.
Guiding the blade down the line.
Each cut closer to the vein.
Bleed.
Bleed.
This state is elevating, as the hurt turns into hating.
Anticipating all the fucked up feelings again!
*repeat chorus*
I'm here to stay.
(Bring it down)
*repeat 3x*
Bring it down!
*repeat 3x*
Gonna break it down!
*repeat 6x*
Gonna break it!
This state is elevating, as the hurt turns into hating.
Anticipating all the fucked up feelings again!
*repeat chorus*
Give anymore.
Give anymore.
Give anymore.
Give anymore.
I'm thinking of-
Thanking all the fucked people.
Thanking all the shit I love.
They are all the things I've made.
Straight-
From my heart.
Begging all the same people.
Burning is the same evil.
Somehow, making me feel sane.
Waiting all this time.
I've got nothing to hold on, but the faces of my plight-
I can see before I'm gone.
*chorus*
Sometimes I feel it chasing me!
All the hate that's breaking free!
I realize I'm taking everything!
And the shit seems to follow.
This time I feel it taking me!
To a place I need to be!
All along I seem to make believe!
And the shit seems to follow.
I'm thinking of-
Making all the fucked people-
Making the bitches I love-
Make them die and go away.
Pain-
From the start.
All my dreams are ripped apart.
Thanking all the fucked people-
They are all the things I've saved.
Waiting all this time.
I've got nothing to hold on, but the faces of my plight-
I can see before I'm gone.
*repeat chorus*
Your life.(Your life)
I hate!(I hate!)
Oh, God.
Can I reclaim?(I reclaim)
Stop, and help me!(Stop, and help me!)
*repeat chorus*
The shit seems to follow!
(The shit seems to follow)
The shit seems to follow!
The shit seems to follow!
So, I think you are a fool.
Hanging on my every word.
It's getting ugly.
So ugly.
Tear me from your heart!
Tearing me apart!
So, I thought you disappeared.
Being alone is what you feared.
Are you lonely?
Yes, lonely.
Tear me from your heart!
Tearing me apart!
Rolling and throwing, consoling
everything that goes this far!
Choking and hoping, revolting
all the shit that's who you are.
Holding and scolding, revolving, peel it back-
Reveal the scar!
Loathing, exploding, controlling,
this is what you really are!
The time is coming.
You've gone insane.
You're really happy.
You've won the game.
The time is coming.
A bed of flames.
You're life is over.
And you're to blame.
The time is coming.
You've gone insane.
You're really happy.
You've won the game.
The time is coming.
A bed of flames.
You're life is over.
And you're to blame.
(Blame)
*repeat 3x*
Rolling and throwing, consoling
everything that goes this far!
Choking and hoping, revolting
all the shit that's who you are.
Holding and scolding, revolving, peel it back-
Reveal the scar!
Loathing, exploding, controlling,
this is what you really are!
*repeat 1x*
Feeding the fall, I can't help but desire all.
Falling-
Down this time.
Deep in this whole of my making, I can't escape.
Falling-
All this time.
We come to this place.
Falling through time.
Living a hollow life.
Always, we're taking.
Waiting for signs.
Hollow life.
(Life, life, life, life, life, life, life...)
Fearing to fall, and still the ground below me calls.
Falling-
Down this time.
Ripping apart all these things I have tried to stop.
Falling-
All this time.
We come to this place.
Falling through time.
Living a hollow life.
Always we're taking.
Waiting for signs.
Hollow life.
Is there ever any wonder-
Why we look to the sky?
Search insane.
Asking why?
All alone.
Where is God?
Looking down?
We don't know.
We fall in space.
We can't look down.
Death may come.
Peace, I have found.
What to say?
Am I alive?
Am I asleep?
Or have I died?
(Haunting me!)(Haunting me!)
We fall in space.
We can't look down.
Death may come.
Peace, I have found.
(Something takes ahold of me!)(Something takes ahold of me!)
What to say?
Am I alive?
Am I asleep?
We fall down.
We come to this place.
Falling through time.
Living a hollow life.
Always we're taking.
Waiting for signs.
Hollow life.
Is there ever any wonder-
Why we look to the sky?
Search insane.
Asking why?
All alone.
Where is God?
Looking down?
We don't know.

Looking down?

We fall in space.
We can't look down.
Death may come.
Peace, I have found.
It ain't fading.
Man, I got to let it out.
Am I crazy?
Screaming, nothing ever comes out.
I keep feeling-
Lost, I'll never find my way out.
I start thinking-
This, unless the truth will pour out.
Give me some courage!
Beating me down now for sometime!
Are you laughing, am I funny?
I hate and slide!
I hate inside!
*chorus*
I'll take this time-
To let out what's inside.
Cuz I will break.
Sometimes I wish you'd die.
Full of sorrow.
You raped and stole my pride.
And all this hate is bottled up inside.
My heart's breaking.
Man, you really ripped it out.
You take pleasure-
Watching as I claw my way out.
The hurt rising.
Soon, it's gonna tear my soul out.
It's not kosher-
Feeling like I'm on my way out.
Give me some courage!
Beating me down now for sometime!
Are you laughing, am I funny ?
I hate and slide!
I hate inside!
*repeat chorus*
Feeling the hate as they cut down my spine!
Peeling your flesh like the way you cut mine!
Do you feel happy?
You've fucked up my mind!
You're going to pay this time!
*repeat chorus 2x*
Thumbing through the pages of my fantasies!
Pushing all the mercy down, down, down!
I wanna see you try to take a swing at me!
Come on!
Gonna put you on the ground, ground, ground!
Why are you trying to make fun of me?!
You think it's funny,
what the fuck you think it's doing to me?!
You take your turns lashing out at me!
I want you crying when you're bleeding at the foot of me!
*chorus*
All-
All my hate can not be bound!(Hate can not be bound)
I will not be drowned-(I will not be drowned)
By your thoughtless schemeing.
So, you can try to tear me down!(Try to tear me down)
Beat me to the ground!(Beat me to the ground)
I will see you screaming!
Thumbing through the pages of my fantasies!
I'm above you smiling as you drown, drown, drown!
I wanna kill and rape you the way you raped me!
And I'll pull the trigger and you're down, down, down!
Why are you trying to make fun of me?!
You think it's funny,
what the fuck you think it's doing to me?!
You take your turns lashing out at me!
I want you crying when you're bleeding at the foot of me!
*repeat chorus*
All-
My friends-
Are gone-
They died.
(Gonna take you down!)
They-
All screamed-
And cried.
(Gonna take you down!)
Gonna take you down!
*repeat 3x*
*repeat chorus 2x*
My life is such a waste.
Begging for something to work this time.
But, why can't I relate?
Feeling all I do is get what's mine.
Holding on to faith.
Never gave me nothing but despair.
So, why do I create just to be swallowed?
(I can't take)
We have a star!
(I can't take)
We've got a fantasy!
(Come what may)
We are the stars!
(I can't wait)
I'll take what's mine!
*chorus*
Been hating all this time!
Before I crawled inside!
Been hating all the faces of everything that I could find!
Been hating all this time!
Too burned to cross the line!
Been hating all the faces of everything that I could find!
I cannot take this place.
Burning up inside this space of mine.
But, why can't I replace feelings I find hard to really find?
I try, but I can't taste.
Memories, they always fuck with me.
So, why do I create just to be swallowed?
(I can't take)
We have a star!
(I can't take)
We've got a fantasy!
(Come what may)
We are the stars!
(I can't wait)
I'll take what's mine!
*repeat chorus*
Find!
Find!
Find!
Find!
Find!
Find!
Find!
All my feelings have been eating all of me!
Feeding time!
Is there something wrong with me?!
(I can't take)
We have a star!
(I can't take)
We've got a fantasy!
(Come what may)
We are the stars!
(I can't wait)
I'll take what's mine!
*repeat chorus*
Find!
Find!
Find!
Find!
Find!
Find!
Find!
Always it's coming, and here starts the game.
Why can't this puzzle be solved?
Each time it happens, it's always the same.
I look down, and it starts to fall.
And all I see-
It burns my eyes.
Burning all inside.
*chorus*
Caught in the corners of my mind!
Beginning over one more time!
Taking me over, taking all that's mine!
One more time!
Always this teasing, sometimes I lose faith.
Where is my strength to hold on?
Facing existence, how can I relate?
Do I stand still or move on?
And all I see-
It burns my eyes.
Burning all inside.
*repeat chorus 2x*
Falling through this space in time-
Buried in this hurt of mine.
Falling slowly, like a dream.
Falling through a world unseen.
Why can I not break this spell?
I'm in darkness, is this hell?
Falling towards this whole I see.
This is how it has to be!
*repeat chorus 2x*
One more time.
One more time.
Pick me up.
Been bleeding-
Too long.
Right here.
Right now.
I'll stop it somehow.
I will make it go away!
Can't be here no more!
Seems this is the only way!
I will soon be gone!
These feelings will be gone!
These feelings-
Will be gone!
*chorus*
Now, I see the times they change.
Leaving doesn't seem so strange.
I am hoping I can find-
Where to leave my hurt behind.
All the shit I seem to take.
All alone I seem to break.
I have lived the best I can.
Does this make me not a man?
Shut me off.
I'm ready.
Heart stops.
I stand-
Alone.
Can't be on-
My own.
I will make it go away!
Can't be here no more!
Seems this is the only way!
I will soon be gone!
These feelings will be gone!
These feelings-
Will be gone!
*repeat chorus*
Am I going to leave this place?
What is it I'm hiding from?
Is there nothing more to come?
(Am I gonna leave this place?)
Is it only black in space?
Am I going to take its place?
Am I going to leave this race?
(Am I gonna leave this race?)
I guess God's up in this place?
What is it that I've become?
Is there something more to come?
More to come.
*repeat chorus 2x*
Blood is-boring!
Sleep is-boring!
Don't stop-running!
I'm here-counting!
The lies!
The hurt!
The pain!
The hate!
The lies!
The hurt!
The pain!
The hate!
The lies!
The hurt!
The pain!
The hate!
Really can't fuck with me.
There's nowhere else to go.
So, I walk but seem to crawl.
For I've given in today.
Now, I run into a wall.
Cuz I cannot find my way.
*chorus*
(You've gotta come with me!)
I cannot stand this place.
(We're falling off the world!)
And I'll give in this way.
(We had a chance to run!)
But now I can't replace.
(We're going all the way!)
And, now for death's embrace.
My life's-worry.
Life is-scarring.
Give up-beating.
I'll start-needing.
The lies!
The hurt!
The pain!
The hate!
The lies!
The hurt!
The pain!
The hate!
The lies!
The hurt!
The pain!
The hate!
Really can't fuck with me.
There's nowhere else to go.
So, I walk but seem to crawl.
For I've given in today.
Now, I run into a wall.
Cuz I cannot find my way.
*repeat chorus*
(Embrace)(Embrace)
*repeat 3x*
Oh, oh, oh oh!
*repeat 3x*
What really do I have to follow?
Nothing makes sense at all.
Taking something for nothing.
Watch me as I fall.
I'm bringing me down!
*repeat 3x*
*repeat chorus 2x*
Are you ready for a good pounding, baby?
(Get down)
Are you ready to get it on?
(Get down, get down)
Don't pretend you're not fuckin' freaky, baby!
(Get down)
I will spank that ass just for fun!
(Get down on the ground)
Ass!
Up!
High!
Make a mother-
Fuck!-
Er!
Cry!
It's so good that I-
Could!
Die!
Help me stay alive!
*chorus*
The time is right!
I wanna feel if you're tight!
I'm down to do this all night!
I'm gonna beat it up right!
I'll behave!
Oh, my God!
Make me beg!
My, God!
Yes, I'm ready for a good flogging, baby!
(Get down)(My, God!)
Come on, ream my ass just for fun!
(Get down, get down)(My, God!)
Don't let up til my ass is bleeding, baby!
(Get down)(My, God!)
Don't let up until you are done!
(Get down on the ground)
Ass!
Up!
High!
Make a mother-
Fuck!-
Er!
Cry!
It's so good that I-
Could!
Die!
Help me stay alive!
*repeat chorus*
We're going on a ride!
I'm gonna turn you inside, and outside, now!
Don't try to run, and hide!
Yes, it's true what they say about my kind!
Are you ready for a good pounding, baby?
(Get down)
Are you ready to get it on?
(Get down, get down)
Don't pretend you're not fuckin' freaky, baby!
(Get down)
I will spank that ass just for fun!
(Get down on the ground)
Ass!
Up!

Make a mother-
Fuck!-
Er!
Cry!
It's so good that I-
Could!
Die!
Help me stay alive!

We've got a fucked up reason to live.
Who really gives a fuck?
We're gonna wake up hate.
We're gonna fuck you up.
I wanna break everything.
I wanna make it sting.
We're gonna wake up hate.
We're gonna wake it up.
You gotta get it straight.
We're gonna give it up.
We're gonna wake up hate.
We're gonna fuck you up.
I wanna break everything.
I wanna make it sting.
We're gonna wake up hate.
We're gonna wake it up.
I am the burning of my everything, an open scar.
I'll be reborn in hatred, feeling I can't love no more.
I've had to suffer.
I cannot wait for more.
No loving, and no praying!
All my hate is for the taking!
We've got a fucked up reason to live.
Who really gives a fuck?
We're gonna wake up hate.
We're gonna fuck you up.
I wanna break everything.
I wanna make it sting.
We're gonna wake up hate.
We're gonna wake it up.
You gotta get it straight.
We're gonna give it up.
We're gonna wake up hate.
We're gonna fuck you up.
I wanna break everything.
I wanna make it sting.
We're gonna wake up hate.
We're gonna wake it up.
I am the falling of my happiness, it is no more.
Stop loving-
I'm still hating, til I can not hate no more.
I've had to suffer.
I cannot wait for more.
No loving, and no praying!
All my hate is for the taking!
I'm-
I'm filthy.
Wasted piece of shit.
I am disgusting!
Take me away!
We've got a fucked up reason to live.
Who really gives a fuck?
We're gonna wake up hate.
We're gonna fuck you up.
I wanna break everything.
I wanna make it sting.
We're gonna wake up hate.
We're gonna wake it up.
You gotta get it straight.
We're gonna give it up.
We're gonna wake up hate.
We're gonna fuck you up.
I wanna break everything.
I wanna make it sting.
We're gonna wake up hate.
We're gonna wake it up.

Maybe I'm insane, walking on a wire.
Maybe I'm the same, nothing can take me higher.
Tell me where to start.
Think I'm at the end.
Right now feeling pain.
Make it go away.
Maybe I'm to blame.
Maybe I'm a liar.
Maybe we're the same.
Nothing can stop the fire.
I can't feel my heart, but I feel the shame.
Nothing left to say.
Soon, I'll fade away.
These places, all I ever think about, it's lost in time!
These faces taunting me-
I'm looking back, and they are mine!
*chorus*
I'm hiding from the things they say!
Doing time, then lead astray!
Bring it back to times of yesterday!
I could fly!
I'm trying to find a better way!
But, I'm trapped-
Can't get away!
All I think is about yesterday!
I could fly!
Maybe I'm insane, walking on a wire.
Maybe I'm the same.
Nothing can take me higher.
I can't feel my heart, but I feel the shame.
Nothing left to say.
Soon, I'll fade away.
These places, all I ever think about, it's lost in time!
These faces taunting me-
I'm looking back, and they are mine!
*repeat chorus 2x*
You and me, we have no faces.
Soon, our lives will be erased.
Do you think they will remember?
Or will we just be replaced?
Oh, I wish that I could see.
How I wish that I could fly.
Far from things that hang above me
to a place where I can cry.
So, why can it be?-
No one hears me call-
Echoes back at me-
No one's there.
*chorus*
To all these nameless feelings I can't deal with in my life.
To all these greedy people trying to feed on what is mine.
You've got to fill your hunger, and stop fucking with my mind.
I know it's time to leave these places far behind.
You and me, we have no faces.
They don't see us anymore.
Without love as they had promised.
And no faith for what's in store.
Oh, I wish that I could see.
How I wish that I could fly-
Far from things that hang above me
to a place where I can cry.
So, why can it be?-
No one hears me call-
Echoes back at me-
No one's there.
*repeat chorus*
Where are all these feelings hiding?
Dancing in and out my mind.
Burning up all that I long for.
Feeding me til my decline.
Where are you?
My soul is bleeding!
I am searching, am I blind?
All alone, and bound forever!
Trapped inside me for all time!
*repeat chorus 2x*
