1. REACH

Make no mistake don't ever look back
Don't look those things are miles away
For all the while you're breathing your life is on track
Will you cover me
Misty-eyed and jaded
We're gonna beat up on the world
As you try to compete
Lock horns again
Who's the one that owns your failure
We're gonna beat up on the world
Which face decides to nail ya
This time to win

Why wear a crown of thorns for things you cannot reach
Dare you say life's for you to play
Self-damnation permeates the weak who cannot change
Dare you say life's for you to play

Most things fall to pieces
We're gonna beat up on the world
That are colored in red
Lock horns again
Hold back your image
We're gonna beat up on the world
Don't cry for revenge
This time you win
Mustn't look at the forces
Don't look those things are miles away
Lined against your side
Will you cover me
How does that gauge your progress
Don't look those things are miles away
At what measure means it's your best
Lost in infamy

Why wear a crown of thorns for things you cannot reach
Dare you say life's for you to play
Self-damnation permeates the weak who cannot change
Dare you say life's for you to play
(x3)


2. USER FRIENDLY

There's a mystery that's now occurred to me
The past becomes the solution
I understand if I don't meet your demands
I'll pay with no illusions
Manipulations and stipulations
Come with everything you do
Whatever it takes I'm gonna do my best
To clear this picture up for you

When it comes to the toss
Gonna give you the flip
Turn away so easily
And I'll stop there'll be nothin' left

This has taken a turn and you need to learn
It happens now not later
Check yourself before you wreck yourself
Heard in a song you betcha
Redefine the hidden lines
To transpose us keep us par
Step back control yourself
Take a look see where we are

When it comes to the toss
Gonna give you the flip
Turn away so easily
And I'll stop there'll be nothin' left

I'm talkin' heads I'm gonna win
Tails you lose
Honestly your whole life you've played the fool
Heads I'm gonna win tails you lose
Obviously this time you can't fool me

Without a doubt no need to talk about
There's a disconnect in your stare
Compromised and internalized
That part of you which draws air
Will you please a form of currency
For you to buy all things OK
But I cannot help to wonder why
You continue to piss it away

When it comes to the toss
Gonna give you the flip
Turn away so easily
And I'll stop there'll be nothin' left

I'm talkin' heads I'm gonna win
Tails you lose
Honestly your whole life you've played the fool
Heads I'm gonna win tails you lose
Send out an SOS you'll have a chance
Heads I'm gonna win
Tails you lose
Obviously this time you can't fool me

Are you lost
Where's your head
Aren't you sick and tired
How sick are you
How do you conceive it
And do you believe it
Can anyone reach out to you
This is the last time
I'll play along
'Cause in the end
I'll just stop

I'm talkin' heads I'm gonna win
Tails you lose
Honestly your whole life you've played the fool
Heads I'm gonna win tails you lose
Send out an SOS you'll have a chance
Heads I'm gonna win
Tails you lose
Honestly your whole life you've played the fool
Heads I'm gonna win
Tails you lose
Obviously this time you can't fool me


3. THE FALL

All that I lust for
Only taking from the land
The desire strokes me calmly
Adjust to demands
Split the ties cause of mass confusion
Claim a tribe of my own
Left alone on a stage built for bloodshed
With every man for his own

I sift through views hosting legions of darkness
With all intent to despair
A chokehold on emotions left distant
To blend the tribes crystal clear
In the breach sullen eyes tell the story
Break your back hold your throat
Push it through build my kingdom forever
Cry for mercy no more

By the way
I'm a freak who lost his wings
Along the way
Frequently
I feast among the young
Like raptors prey
(x2)

Ongoing this saga continues
I give no life only bones
Some align as to give the perception
The flesh can stand on its own
Wrap the night get no quarter from sunshine
Can feel the presence it's there
Drain the billions pint for pint feeling lonely
The one to turn to beware

By the way
I'm a freak who lost his wings
Along the way
Frequently
I feast among the young
Like raptors prey
(x2)

Eyes draw cold
I feel that death is upon us
The stench so think hell I lost sight of me
Not a lore
Just another deception
Appeawse the mind child
Wash your sins away

By the way
I'm a freak who lost his wings
Along the way
Frequently
I feast among the young
Like raptors prey
(x2)

Come on let's let the feast begin


4. NOTHING NOW NOTHING THEN

Thought it was meant to be
Forever as if like a dream
Closed shut eyes miss the dark
A moment wears thin so it seems

Since then things have changed
Now I simply refrain
From taking part now it's too late
Nothing to say, nothing to say
We move sometimes as if confined
Caught in a vice slow passing time
Can't take it hard because it's all off on the horizon
Nothing now nothing then

Hear it loud clear the slate
Escape before it escalates
Sit one out shut the mouth
Don't understand don't speculate

Since then things have changed
Now I simply refrain
From taking part now it's too late
Nothing to say, nothing to say
We move sometimes as if confined
Caught in a vice slow passing time
Can't take it hard because it's all off on the horizon
Nothing now nothing then

Nothing now nothing then
Nothing how nothing when
Nothing ever need to know
Nothing ever coming so

Since then things have changed
Now I simply refrain
From taking part now it's too late
Nothing to say, nothing to say
We move sometimes as if confined
Caught in a vice slow passing time
Can't take it hard because it's all off on the horizon
Nothing now nothing then


5. SIDELINES

Just look around McMansions dot the land
With all success there's some things that go hand in hand
Everyone's hidin' in those cardboard boxes
Sixty rooms more ways to be alone

Their lives are set
All conveniently
With such heresy
I don't know

Seven days in a week to make the bucks
So all the heirs can put their hands on daddy's trust
Nothin' new but online's on demand
It dictates how they say 'Hi' to all their friends

Are you here just standin' on the sidelines
What the hell do you think this is all about you
And everything that you do
Insane these days to stay in the loop
Horoscope reads all things done by noon
Will make fortunes for you

That's one thing I never did expect
Was born and raised as if already wise like a man
Mother said make the money for yourself
It builds respect so you don't waste it all away

As I stepped
Into a world that was free
Found it hard to believe
It's no more

I confess I do not accept
Deny myself also let the pressure come to bear
Have to sift through seven hands by the man
But will not rest until I own one single day

I ain't here just standin' on the sidelines
What the hell do you think this is all about you
And everything that you do
Insane these days to stay in the loop
Horoscope reads all things done by noon
Will make fortunes for you

Are you here just standin' on the sidelines
What the hell do you think this is all about you
And everything that you do
Insane these days to stay in the loop
Horoscope reads all things done by noon
Will make fortunes for you


6. S.O.S.

Mistress distress wanna be my guest
But still won't confess to that boxed up mess you left
You headed East so I went West
Need to get these all things cleared up off my chest

You take much pleasure from seein' others' pain
The company I keep won't even speak your name
Turnabout's fair play I turn my back
All because you stabbed me like a freaky sneak attack

Do not (then)
Do not (then)
Do not send an SOS
x2

I had no idea I was runnin' blind
Then again I ignored all of the warnin' signs
Thinkin' maybe you should start yourself a group
You're fuckin' crazy I said I'm through with you

Do not (then)
Do not (then)
Do not send an SOS
x2

Every single time you come to me
I say SOS
'Cause every single time you've ruined me
I say SOS
Why do you insist to burden me
I say SOS
Find a doc to turn your screws you need help

Miss Distress lady comes in red
Wants too much of me someone give her some meds
Thought she found herself a boy
Tripped on me instead
Must remove myself from the scene
Or risk being tempted

Do not (then)
Do not (then)
Do not send an SOS
x2

Every single time you come to me
I say SOS
'Cause every single time you've ruined me
I say SOS
Why do you insist to burden me
I say SOS
Find a doc to turn your screws you need help


7. BREAKDOWN

Mouths are locked thoughts are chained
Can't explain how this turned out
A paradox when freedom reigns
Instilled fear through collective power
One for one has been obliterated
This I'm hating pay or be locked down
And now I

Don't think this fucking shit's ever gonna change
Get ready
Look at all the people acting like one and the same
Hold on
If you're more like me then this is what you gotta do
Get ready
Hold your chin up chest out stand up straight and focus right here on this

You just can't hesitate as if scatterbrained
Explode like propane and ride on you just ride on
Dominate as thunder
Steal the silence as you plunder and ride on
'Cause how many licks does it take to want no
How many licks does it take to want no more

Hearts have withered souls have drained
Find blame enough to go around
Tolerance builds such disdain
To the gallows send the cowards
Want as a privilege often granted
Open-handed It's gone to far
And now I

Get up
Accept this pain
Expect to get fucked
Irate damn straight
Reasons forgot 'em
On the way down and i"ll see you at the bottom
Probably wrong the way I'm wired
Fuel spark fan the fire
System crashin' file corrupt
Abort program self destruct

Mouths are locked thoughts are chained
Castigate one's tendencies
A paradox when freedom reigns
Human state of empathy's the rage
One for one has been obliterated
I am hated for me somehow
And now I

You just can't hesitate as if scatterbrained
Explode like propane
And ride on you just ride on
Dominate as thunder
Steal the silence as you plunder
And ride on

'Cause how may licks does it take to want no
Can't hesitate as if scatterbrained
Explode like propate
And ride on you just ride on
Dominate as thunder
Steal the silence as you plunder
And ride one

'Cause how many licks does it take to want no more


8. MARITIME

I've always tried not to get frustrated
And to let petty things roll off the back
You have the habit of instigatin'
And show no form of respect

But not this time you fucking castaway
How ill-conceived you had your chance to

Sail with me on the seven oceans
Be first mate take the wheel tack and hold us
A hull of steel but ego done broke us
Breaking me down making me feel precocious

You could resist the situation
Make me believe it makes no sense
I could convince myself of your aspirations
Lay down my instincts and just pretend

But not this time you fucking castaway
How ill-conceived you had your chance to

Sail with me on the seven oceans
Be first mate take the wheel tack and hold us
A hull of steel but ego done broke us
Breaking me down making me feel precocious

I could convince myself of your aspirations
Lay down my instincts and just pretend

But not this time you fucking castaway
How ill-conceived you had your chance to

Sail with me on the seven oceans
Be first mate take the wheel tack and hold us
A hull of steel but ego done broke us
Breaking me down making me feel precocious


9. CLOSER

More like a gift less like a sign
The one I have waited for my whole life
Stolen my sight left me for blind
The one I now worship all others denied

Come closer
Closer
Come closer

Right me ignite me point me at the sky
Light up the night like you light up my eyes
Sing when I die a dirge for my life
The one that's been burning the back of my mind

Pull you close all you dream
Lies within come to me
To the light through the seam
In the fold one with me

Spectre hung shining illuminate the flow
The cut that's dividing precision in tow
Beckoning me like gravity's pull
Let go and free fall succumbing in full

Come closer
Closer
Come closer

Grace me embrace me stretch wings and fly
Carry me up to the end of my life
Sing when I die a dirge for my life
The one that's been burning the back of my mind

Come closer
Closer
Come closer
(x2)


10. DANGER

No idea why I waited this long
I thought I'd never say
Each time I felt I'd seen enough
Be another one like yesterday

What do I say too much
Ready to dance
With all those who intend
To kill the innocent

With the way of the world now it ain't wrong
I'm angry yeah can't you tell
In time I'll need to make a move
Pack my conscience up in the mail
I'll pay if I ignore it
I'm in line my chance to change the score
Not known for my mercy or anything at all
This time I'm goin' off

What do I say too much
Ready to dance
With all those who intend
To kill the innocent

I'll never feel the same again
Will you say you're not my friend
I say I will never forget
I'm ready for war

What do I say too much
Ready to dance
With all those who intend
To kill the innocent

It'll be written it shall be done
There are those who will have to pay
The price is set for the fool who lies in doubt
Won't stop and never fail

What do I say too much
Ready to dance
With all those who intend
To kill the innocent
(x2)


11. BENT

How dare you pick and choose so easily
How dare you let me bring you to your knees
How dare you waste my time I'm through with this
How dare you make my blood boil over it

In time I'll have my day and I will see
In time I'll break away so mightily
In time I'll step on through and deal with this
In time I'll take control it's counterfeit

Don't lie to me
You did this to me
Now take and walk alone
A rivalry
And if by chance
Again we do meet
Just turn and move along
Through your misery

And so you'll understand to fade away
And so you'll take a feeling home today
And so you'll have some fear without a doubt
And so you'll think of me but cross it out

Don't lie to me
You did this to me
Now take and walk alone
A rivalry
And if by chance
Again we do meet
Just turn and move along
Through your misery

So will decree a mosh of my insides
So will I not get lost in this divide
So will I become the one who ticks
So will I refrain to slap you bitch


12. Wrap the Night

Woke up flushed somewhere this morning
Hotel on the strip I'm sure
With scattered visions of the night before
When I went to get a drink got more
Saw this sweet thing in a fine red dress
Had the hair the nails those five inch heels
She walked on up and sat right next to me
Reached for a light smilin' ear to ear

Come on
You know you got to
Come on
You know you got to
Come on
You know you got to

We just struck up conversation
What's up baby
Learned everything I needed to know
Talked about all the fine things in life
All the crazy shit we wanted to do
Then she whispered all up in my ear
Let's get outta here
Said try this one on here for size
But said there's just one stipulation
I am the best that money can buy

Come on
You know you got to
Come on
You know you got to
Come on
You know you got to

Come and take this package
Girl just take the package
Won't you take and wrap this package for me
Wrap the package
Don't you keep me waitin'
No use hesitatin'
'Cause you know you don't wrap it for free
Wrap the package

It's just our style to bring it here

On and on for days Schizopathic ways
Why society says no to me
For these things can't be denied
You think you didn't pay
Check your lady's ring
Did it come free in the box
Or just fall out the hole

Come on
You know you got to
Come on
You know you got to
Come on
You know you got to

Come and take this package
Girl just take the package
Won't you take and wrap this package for me
Wrap the package
Don't you keep me waitin'
No use hesitatin'
'Cause you know you don't wrap it for free
Wrap the package

Oh no we're out now


13. DEAD ALIVE

Killing time with my face in the fire
Eyes burn from the ash of the day
Should sleep but I'm this far from the awakening
In fact it erased the desire
Left me feeling like I've wasted away
All this time I'll find a way to begin again

I'm dead alive

Sunrise in my mind
It takes a little time
Surprise from the blind side we collide
Short ride in no time
I've arrived
It subsides I walk as if there's no meaning

I'm dead alive
