Les paroles

1. DUALITY

I push my fingers into my eyes
It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache
But it's made of all the things I have to take
Jesus it never ends, it works it's way inside
If the pain goes on

I have screamed until my veins collapsed
I've waited as my times elapsed
Now all I do is live with so much fate

I wished for this, I bitched at that
I've left behind this little fact
You cannot kill what you did not create

I've gotta say what I've gotta say
And then I swear I'll go away
But I can't promise you'll enjoy the noise

I guess I'll save the best for last
My future seems like one big past
You're left with me 'cause you left me no choice

I push my fingers into my eyes
It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache
If the pain goes on, I'm not gonna make it

Put me back together or separate the skin from bone
Leave me all the pieces
Then you can leave me alone

Tell me the reality is better than the dream
But I've found out the hard way
Nothing is what it seems

I push my fingers into my eyes
It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache
But it's made of all the things I have to take
Jesus it never ends, it works it's way inside
If the pain goes on, I'm not gonna make it

All I've got, all I've got is insane(x6)

I push my fingers into my eyes
It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache
But it's made of all the things I have to take
Jesus it never ends, it works it's way inside
If the pain goes on, I'm not gonna make it

All I've got, all I've got is insane (x4)


2. DON'T GET CLOSE

Come on !

Somebody give me some light
And not punch in the dark
Somebody show me the end
And I try to push a start
I'm trying to figure out
A better way, a better answer
But I keep finding all the problems
I've been looking after

You can't wander through the world
With nothing but a smile
I'll take your tongue for words
And use it to instill denial
Don't get close
You don't know me
And you'll never know
Chivalry, will get you somewhere
Rivalry, will take you there

Don't get close
You don't know me
And you'll never know
Chivalry, will get you somewhere
Rivalry, will take you there

Maybe I should look away
Before I really miss
Maybe I should pick the time
Before I pick the place
I bet you all the things
That you emulate, you penalize
But I don't wanna go
Before you learn to finalize

Don't get close
You don't know me
And you'll never know
Chivalry, will get you somewhere
Rivalry, will take you there
Don't get close
You don't know me
And you'll never know
Chivalry, will get you somewhere
Rivalry !

You assist the plot
My vision's overshot
I have the best confection
I was gone for all the lessons
Who coined these words I use
Stay out and be abused
I didn't want to be
The undeniable source of everything

Don't get close(x5)

You'd better stay away
Don't get close(x3)

You'd better stay away

Need change, watching all the conflicts
Constrict, push the fist in, squeeze it
I can not resist, claws and fist
Remember, remember
You take the rivalries
And never make much sense
I have the worst possession
What I want is so insensitive
Stay out and be abused
Cause this is so confused
I only want to be
Left alone, and rot away

Don't get close(x5)

You'd better stay away
Don't get close(x2)

You'd better stay away


3. DISASTERPIECE (LIVE)

Nobody stop me

I wanna slit your throat and fuck the wound
I wanna push my face in and feel the swoon
I wanna dig inside, find a little bit of me
'Cause the line gets crossed when you don't come clean

My wormwood meets your pesticide
You'll never get out, 'cause you were never alive
I am infinite, I am the infant finite
Come a little closer and I'll show you why

No one is safe
Noises, noises, people make noises
People make noises when they're sick
Nothing to do except hold on to nothing(x2)

How does it feel to be locked inside another dream
That never had a chance of being realized?
What the fuck are you lookin' at?
I'll tell you what you're lookin' at
Everyone you ever fuckin' laughed at

Look in my eyes for the answers, typical
I can feel it underneath like a miracle
Everybody in the world needs more than
Lies and consequences to power them

Once again, it's me and no one else
I can't remember if there was a someone else
It's not mine, it's not fair, it's outta my hands
And it's shaking, you'll never take me

No one is safe
Noises, noises, people make noises
People make noises when they're sick
Nothing to do except hold on to nothing

No one is safe
Noises, noises, people make noises
People make noises when they're sick
Nothing to do except hold on to nothing
Nothing, nothing !

Hate, hate ain't enough to describe me
Scream, somewhere between screaming and crying
I'm not supposed to be here, I'm not supposed to be

Why, when do I get to know why?
Bitter, bitter as the stink of when I try
I'm not supposed to be here, I'm not supposed to be, no

Pull your hands away, I'm gone
Goodbye, it's so depressing, withering away
Take a look inside, my soul is missing

All I have is dead so I'll take you with me
I feel like I'm erased so kill me just in case(x2)
Don't kill me, drop it guys

Covet, everything around me's mine
Sty, can't see through the sties in my eyes
I'm not supposed to be here, I'm not supposed to be

Down, scratching and clawing all the way
Stay, you won't let me fucking stay
I'm not supposed to be here, I'm not supposed to be

Live, is there another way to live?
Die, 'cause it's the only way to die
I'm not supposed to be here, I'm not supposed to be, come on

No (x3)

No, I'm not supposed to be here, I'm not supposed to be
I'm not supposed to be here, I'm not supposed to be
