1. BRICK BY BRICK

DROP!
Get up out and see,
Come outside and see,
Cause' I just cant get enough of everything I crave,
Where I wanna be, just where I wanna be.
Try to grip this with a clenched fist,
Don't know why I'm slipping.
And that smile on your face
You'll behold this nations children and we do as we please.
Cause' I just cant get enough of everything I crave,
Where I wanna be, just where I wanna be.
Now that I found peace inside of this world, where I wanna be.
We built it brick by brick
We built it brick by brick.
So now that I found peace inside of this world, where I wanna be.
Just where I wanna be.
Scream till you hear us plead in fear and smile on occasion
Meantime you'll behold this nations children and we do as we please.
Cause' I just cant get enough of everything I crave,
Where I wanna be, just where I wanna be.
Now that I found peace inside of this world, where I wanna be.
We built it brick by brick
Brick by brick.
Passion, deceit, honesty and greed these things that need to feed.
Passion, deceit, lessen disloyalty these things that need to feed.
We built it brick by brick.


2. HEADCASE

Cause' I wanna be light as a feather.
Cause' this is what I figure with finger upon on the trigger
Than living another day of stress at best
I guess, one last breath I guess we're one day closer
And my fists are sober.
And like nothing in the world can beat the trash
That we hold forever and forever more
Rule the world with all my flaws.
I wanna be...
Cause' I wanna be....
Jump on up and down and shake the ground
Just a little freak.
YA HEADCASE, YA HEADCASE!
Pulling out my hair you'll always stare
Just a little freak.
YA HEADCASE, YA HEADCASE!
Cause' I wanna be light as a feather.
Just a little tweaked
Just a little freaked out inside that's all
Inside the world we live in
Cause' I'm claustrophobic and anti social
And lets get this show, now we'll watch your heads roll.
So look at me now!
And I'd rather be beneath the seats, biting my nails, grinding my teeth
Mind, body and soul
Lose control so don't lay down next to me.
Jump on up and down and shake the ground
Just a little freak.
YA HEADCASE, YA HEADCASE!
Pulling out my hair you'll always stare
Just a little freak.
YA HEADCASE, YA HEADCASE!


3. ONE WISH

So here we are all alone now,
hold me close, tell me lies
this isn't home and this isn't right
not gonna stand here and wait for something I can't...
please, please just set me free
I feel the heat so why am I cold,
just cant seem to let you go
cause' you still want a piece and I need it all,
lights were on when there was no one home
when you'd invite me in and then you'd shut the door
before I clutched my palm I could feel you stare,
nothing between us but family.
So please listen close, my story goes on
Friends are leaving as we're growing old,
Count miles back and I'm out the door,
So I'd better tell myself I'm never coming home.
Everybody says "play by the rules"
Shut your mouth and just play it cool,
Go on and pay your dues, forget that!
That's what came before.
Stop! Stop! Wait! Wait!
I think we have contact, one second I can't wait
And give me just one chance, chance! Chance! Chance!
I think we have contact, one second I can't wait
And give me just one...
Stop! Stop! Wait! Wait!
I think we have contact, one second I can't wait
And give me just one chance, chance! Chance! Chance!
I think we have contact...
So here we are all alone now,
hold me close, tell me lies
this isn't home and this isn't right
not gonna stand here and wait for something I can't...
breath, breath and feel diseased
well you all can see its not time to leave,
how's it feel to be complete?
don't stop me now cause' I can almost reach,
pull myself out of another hole,
take it to them but don't talk to me
cause' you cant relate
no need to rush, I'm already late,
and in this case my world is erased out and pulled my face down
straight from the grave and I see tonight,
straight from out my lies, roll your eyes,
cool me down, I need to find.
Take my hand in spite of me
Cause' I'm on my knees and I'm begging please
Need a taste of what I crave
What I crave is fate!
I think we have contact...


4. ADRENACHROME

I hear you,
I hear you loud and clearly.
Loud and clearly!
I hear you running your mouth like you got it all figured out
Don't tell me to calm down
Cause' you throw insults on the glass house.
Now all that are reasons to feel completely defeated
So if when you are cheated, how I meant it ain't all the secrets.
So listen now!!!
Full blown, hands down, point blank.
You've got to go, yeah
So you'd better look in the mirror
Because you're fastest vision is clearer
You're about to see what is hidden up my sleeve.
Uh-oh come on we've got to move
See slows cool if you want to lose
Gotta move if you just don't wanna hold hands.
Cause' I hear you...
Simply because I never felt
Better than I have ever felt today
For these reasons unexplained.
I cannot decide whether I am coming or going,
Will someone please just show me the door for real.
Inside your mind, that place you hide,
I came inside, yeah, I'm like a fly on your ceiling,
Analyzing all of your lies and your secrets
Just spying, oh no,
Now you can see what's up my sleeve
You've been around for all this time.
Don't tell me to calm down!
Don't say Just play nice!
I hear you,
I hear you loud and clearly.
Loud and clearly!


5. GET IT OUT

Rushing, ducking, hunting for something
Quit flaunting, everybody hustling
Everybody bought it from something
Everybody judging.
I'm sick of a thing called pretending... that you know where you're heading,
Tell me again, keep it kept in,
All I wanted was your blessing.
So I'm sorry, you can't tell me nothing
When I see it in your eyes your bluffing,
And all I asked for was taken away!
Gotta get it out, learn to defend it.
Gotta get it out, learn to accept it.
Gotta get it out
Gotta get it out
Gotta get it out.
Never been beaten or defeated
Keeping the pin of a meter,
Crossing the line, I'ma listen
Yo world you can keep it!
(I've got reasons demons)
Bashes, turn them into ashes
And never find a fear in the matches,
You'll never sleep until you reach it,
With the writings on the wall,
(just read it).
so I can say that I beat it, stop stressing
growing on myself's just mentions,
and I'm betting this direction's trying to smash into me!!!
Gotta get it out, learn to defend it.
Gotta get it out, learn to accept it.
Gotta get it out
Gotta get it out
Gotta get it out.


6. EMPIRE FALLS

Things will never change,
Things will never,
Things will never change.
Step into the realm,
And watch the empire fall,
Stepping into the realm,
And watch the empire fall.
Too young to understand I'm nothing less than a man,
I'll move the earth but first I need a fresh place to stand,
Cause' its my mother, my father, the preachers, teachers
Everybody and my self overall,
Don't ask me why they try!
Cause' everybody feels alone,
Where am I supposed to go,
Battlefields at home.
Now we're all lost in it ofcourse.
Emotions and alcohol contribute to the downfall.
Now just sit by and watch an empire fall.
Things will never change,
Things will never,
Things will never change.
Stood by and watched the empire fall.
Now I won't cry while I watch it drop
Things will never change,
Things will never,
Things will never change.
Sometimes I'm not informed of reasons straight to the present,
I know right where I'm heading,
Now I'm over this I'll give the credit.
We were wrong at times, ain't even gonna try to lie
Feeling like I should cry when I watch it drop!
I feel alone
No love lost in it ofcourse.
Now I'll tell you the truth we're getting better,
But to be honest far from above the pressure.
Things will never change
Things will never change
Things will never change
Stood by and watched an empire fall.
So give me three, four, five more minutes please in my sleep
In my dreams, only place that I really feel free.


7. LET 'EM KNOW

Spit shit right into my ear kid
I don't wanna hear this,
Look alive when I feel this.
Feels like 10 degrees and I wont stop freezing.
No keys, no clothes, no hands, no finger prints
No more self-conscience.
Smashed right in the glass
And so while we left you were seeing stars.
Now I cant just wait here, I'll catch you later
I feel us bleeding, I'll stain the stage red.
I'm like the devil I'll show you it all in the end,
When your time here is spent,
Hocus pocus pince and locus crowd screaming to be set free.
Just to let you know,
We've frozen our bones.
We're here to let you know,
Just to show how we roll.
We hear to let you know,
Just to show how we roll.
We hear to let you know,
Drop, drop, everybody drop!
We're ripping holes in your living room floors
Grade 8 is just too hot to hold.
Now you all can't compete with it,
Cause' I'm the one that your dreams have to sleep with.
Please nobody see it, cause' we're sick of all the lawyers and executives.
Don't know why my life is the way it is,
Speaking these subliminal messages,
And then I'll make you all crazy kid
Or unless I already did.
When all I really want to do is live.
Everybody mosh! Everybody shocked!
That we've now dropped flat on our face,
Ever had a taste of something great?
Like a drug pumped straight through your veins.
I see it and I grab it, I wanna breake a habit,
I put it in my pocket, I got it.
Crowd screaming to be set free!
Just to let you know,
We've frozen our bones.
We're here to let you know,
Just to show how we roll.
We hear to let you know,
Just to show how we roll.
We hear to let you know,
Drop, drop, everybody drop!
We're kicking holes in your living room floors
Everybody knows...
Grade 8 is just too hot to hold.
Put your hands behind your head and lie down on the ground!


8. CHANCES ARE

Chances are...
Chances are I'd be dead if I never left
I need some truth to believe,
I'm just inside a disease.
I need to rest peaceful in my mind
That is before I reach the level of the freaks.
Oh my god, look a locomotive,
Words that were spoken, leave her choking,
Heading home when you know this,
My world trying to hold this, slipping through my fingers
And I know this.
Burn bridges, pulling arms out of sockets till I'm finished.
Then I race inside my head.
Couldn't bet I wish I had one chance to go back and change the past...
But the chances are I'd be dead if I never left.
Chances are...
Chances are...
Chances are I'd be dead if I never left.
Cause' I never listen to suspicions,
Always trust my intuitions, my decisions.
My minds always ticking and as fast as that,
But I'm calm like a child.
You wanna take no day, get closeness,
Seeing the corrosion running through the ocean,
Overall there open.
This time he's lost it!
So what about your last chance.
So please believe that I'm gonna keep on moving,
Looking for solutions.
Neglected, I've felt it, infected, I corrected...
Wish I had one chance to go back and change the past...
But the chances are I'd be dead if I never left.
Chances are...
Chances are...
Chances are I'd be dead if I never left.
Where were ya then?
Where are ya now?
Heads in the clouds,
I got my feet on the ground.
Chances are I'd be dead if I never left.
You sense it!
(I sense it!)
So what ya gonna do about it!!!


9. DEAL WITH IT

My only way out...


10. FROZEN

You left me by my side.
Never planned it,
I gotta learn what just happened,
Eyes focused.
Hands shaking, body breaking,
Something's going down,
What! You play me for a clown?
So STOP!
You let me sell my whole life,
Oh you think you're so hot all around,
But you're done now.
Stole that little kiss from the lips of a lyricist.
YOU'RE LEFT BY MY SIDE!!!
You left me paralyzed,
You left me by my side.
Hold me down,
That's enough.
You left me by my side.
Stole that little kiss from the lips of a lyricist,
Okay I'll make it quick, all of this, all of what we dreamed.
Sure well we're stronger than ever before,
All my scars gotta leave em all.
Now that they're all gone and the war has been cheated on before,
Now that one soldier cant climb over this concrete wall.
So what are ya saying, quit complaining
Like a coward little baby when your conscience is gaining!
Because your frontin' from nothing,
Though everybody's frontin' baby,
Show me something,
All across the land, all across the world.
Left hypnotized.
YOU'RE LEFT BY MY SIDE!!!
You left me paralyzed,
You left me by my side.
Hold me down,
That's enough.
You left me by my side.


11. SMOKE N' MIRRORS

If I had a disguise,
If I Trust your kind,
Continue to clean smoke n' mirrors.
Cause' I've seen it all before.
If I live through another day
I might as well bow down,
Bow down and be your slave.
So come help out and dig my grave,
Because I refuse to lose.
Cause' I have no time for your complications, confrontations, explanations.
And every time I tried to talk to you to find the truth,
You just refused and pushed me away!
Cause' I've seen it all before.
And I know your kind.
Push me, Push me!
If I Head up the skies,
If I Trust your kind,
Continue to clean smoke n' mirrors.
Cause' I've seen it all before.


12. ANOTHER DAY TO CELEBRATE

1, 2, 3, 4!
Another day to celebrate,
Another, Another day.
Another day in the life we're living
We're never forgotten, never forgiven.
Two more thousand faces I'm taking with us.
When I should really thank em' for every time they lied and played,
Obeyed and stayed for just another day to celebrate!
One day for everything and who we compensate,
For every mistake and every precious thing we break!
Just one more day...
Cause' I just want to celebrate another day of living,
And I just want celebrate another day of life.
GO!
Watch it all go away!
Cause' I just want to celebrate another day of living,
And I just want celebrate another day of life.
From across this, promise all this,
All the sons and all the daughters.
And remember watching face and to just stand up straight,
Clean your plate, clean up all the floors,
Do whatever I tell you to do.
And tell the truth,
Baby I got news for all of you,
Keep the faith,
Do whatever it takes
Cause tonight we're staying up late and celebrate for you that lit the fuse.
I just want to celebrate another day of living,
And I just want celebrate another day of life.
