Lyrics


1. TIED DOWN

You made your choice
Now there's no turning back
Wasting your time
But you just won't face the facts
Why fool yourself
That you're having fun
When you had your second thoughts
Why didn't you fucking run

Tied Down
You're on a fucking leash
Tied Down
You'll never be released
Tied Down
You wanted it that way
Tied Down
Now there's nothing you can say

Now you lost yourself
And you got nowhere to go
I can only see
You're not the one I used to know
No time left for yourself
Because commitments that you've made
Now it's gonna haunt you
Till your fucking dying day


2. HYPOCRITE

You've given me a set of rules
And you don't seem to care
You've given me a challenge
But I'll never take the dare

I can't believe
I can't believe in you

You tell me of a better way
I think you're full of shit
You've limited my actions
You're just a hypocrite

I can't believe
I can't believe in you

Never could believe in you
Although you wish I could
But you just keep on telling me
That I really could

All your fucking pressure
It's pounding on my head
All your fucking pressure
When will it ever end


3. EVACUATE

Conditions are getting worse
And there's nothing left I can do
Gonna leave while I can
I'm gonna with or without you

It never used to be like this before
But it's something I just can't ignore
I'm gonna leave before it's too late
Erase my presence - Evacuate

I've had it up to here with lies
I gotta make different plans
I'm already rotting inside
Seems like you'll never understand

It never used to be like this before
But it's something I just can't ignore
I'm gonna leave before it's too late
Erase my presence - Evacuate


4. SAID AND DONE

You've stepped too far outta line
You've ripped us off for the last time
Now you've gone and had your fun
We're gonna kill you for what you've done

Said and Done, said and done

Now beware of what you do
Cause we're always watching you
If you ever lose our trust
You'd better fucking look out for us


5. NOTHING

(Instrumental)


6. YOUR MISTAKE

I like what I do
And I do what I like
But to you I'm always wrong
And I never could be right
When I think about you
My anger only grows
You made me hate your guts
But you'd never fucking know

I'd rather be dead
Than listen to you
I'd rather be dead
Than follow your rules
You fuck with me
I don't need you
I'll not carry on
With a generation of fools

You hate what I do
And I do what you hate
I'm sick of your shit
And the problems that you make
When I reason with you
You always have a fit
You're getting on my nerves
And there's no doubt about it

You don't know the things I want
You just think you do
I won't play your fucking games
Cause I see right through you
You're always fucking lying to me
Never get your story straight
You always use excuses
To cover up your mistake


7. LIVE YOUR LIFE

Took one route
It wasn't yours
Wanted truth
Nothing more

Live your life for you

Learned what's right
You know it now
Need no one
To tell you how

If you don't
Live your life for you
You've got nothing but to lose
If you don't
Live your life for you
You've got nothing but
Nothing, but to
Lose
Lose


8. FRIEND OR FOE

One moment you agree
With everything I say
Seemingly honest
You're never in the way
How could I have thought
When I'm not around
The shit you say about me
Stories well thought out

It's when I turn my back
You're ready to attack
A verbal abuse
Is what you choose to use

You must hold a grudge
Against the things I do
Why don't you admit it
Stand up and face the truth


9. DEADSTOP

They say that life goes on
But not without a catch
She still don't know how she
Got in this mess
Where was religion
To help her out
Thought it would seal her fate
Without a shadow of a doubt

Just when you think you got it all figured out
You got a deadstop in your life
Never thought it could happen to you
Another deadstop serves you right

He had his hopes set high
But nothing lasts forever
We watched it all
As it just severed
It was his stubborn fault
It was all we could stand
He let it all slip through
The palms of his hands

Just when you think you got it all figured out
You got a deadstop in your life
Never thought it could happen to you
Another deadstop serves you right


10. I'LL SURVIVE

I don't care
What you think of me
Cause you don't know
What the fuck I need
Now I'm not saying
I don't have any problems
But I never run away
I always try to solve 'em

I'll survive I'll survive

When the world's
Coming in around me
I'll take it as it comes
And I won't feel guilty
Do what I have to
To stay alive
When everything's against me
I know I will survive

I'll survive I'll survive
I'll survive
