| Nervous Breakdown | |
|
I'm about
To have a nervous breakdown
My head really hurts
If I don't find a way out of here
I'm gonna go berserk 'cuz
I'm crazy and I'm hurt
Head on my shoulders
It's going...berserk
I hear the same old talk talk talk
The same old lines
Don't do me that today, yeah
If you know what's good for you you'll get out of my way 'cuz
I'm crazy and I'm hurt
Head on my shoulders
Going...berserk
I won't apologize
For acting outta line
You see the way I am
You leave any time you can 'cuz
I'm crazy and I'm hurt
Head on my shoulders
Going...berserk
Crazy! crazy! crazy! crazy!
I don't care what you fuckin' do
I don't care what you fuckin' say
I'm so sick of everything
I just want to...die!

| Slip It In | |
|
"Slip It In"
"Hey mama. Come on, come on."
"I don't know."
"Come on, come on. This is it."
"I kinda got a boyfriend."
"No, no. This is happening. This is the time, now."
"Uh, oh, ok!"
"Alright, come on, go, go..."
You're loose
(Slip it in)
Put your brain in a noose
(Slip it in)
The next day you regret it
(Slip it in)
But, you're still loose
You say you don't want it
You don't want it
Say you don't want it
Then you slip it on in
In, in, in
You feel like a whore
(Slip it in)
But what you did the night before
(Slip it in)
You decided to be all loose
(Slip it in)
And go all crazy
You say you don't want it
You don't want it
Say you don't want it
But then you slip it on in
In, yeah
You slip it in [x2]
You say you didn't think
(Slip it in)
You said you had too much to drink
(Slip it in)
Is it in the chemical?
(Slip it in)
Or is it just some part of you?
You say you don't want it
You don't want it
Say you don't want it
But then you slip it on in
In, in, in
You regret how you felt
(Slip it in)
You felt it
(Slip it in)
You decided to be all loose
(Slip it in)
It's what you choose
You say you don't want it
You don't want it
Say you don't want it
But then you slip it on in
You slip it in [x2]
Alright! Hey! Hey!
You say you got a boyfriend
(Slip it in)
But you're hinting at my friends
(Slip it in)
And everybody else's friend
(Slip it in)
You're not loose, you're wide open
And you say you don't want it
You don't want it
Say you don't want it
Then you slip it on in
In, in, in
You're getting around
(Slip it in)
I'm not putting it down
(Slip it in)
It's just what it is
(Slip it in)
Getting it while it's around
You say you don't want it
You don't want it
You don't want it
But then you slip it on in
In, in, in
You slip it in [x2]
Mount up!

| Black Coffee | |
|
Who are you with, where have you been
Imagination turns thoughts, reason can't change
Staring at the walls, think I know what I see
Anger and coffee, feeling mean
Drinking black coffee, black coffee, drinking black coffee, staring at the wall
Black coffee, black coffee, black coffee, staring at the wall
Black coffee, drinking black coffee, drinking black coffee, staring at the...
Stab through my heart, stab through my heart, stab through my heart
But its all in my mind, mind, mind, mind
Just in my mind, mind, mind, mind
Its just in my mind, yeaaaaaaaaa
My heart is pounding, as stare at the wall
Its my turn to be jealous, now I don't stand for it all
In fact I'm pretty stupid, I'm feeling small
Anger and coffee, feeling mean
Drinking black coffee, black coffee, black coffee, staring at the wall
Black coffee, black coffee, black coffee, staring at the wall
Black coffee, drinking black coffee, drinking black coffee, staring at the...
Stab through my heart, stab through my heart, stab through my heart
But its all in my mind, mind, mind, mind
Just in my mind, mind, mind, mind
Its just in my mind
Yeaaaaaaaa
Drinking black coffee, drinking black coffee, drinking black coffee, staring at the wall
Black coffee, black coffee, black coffee, staring at the wall
Black coffee, drinking black coffee, drinking black coffee, staring at the...
Stab through my heart, stab through my heart, stab through my heart
But its all in my mind, mind, mind, mind
Just in my mind, mind, mind, mind
Its just in my mind, yea
If the night goes on, paranoia adultery
Why should I be so stupid, when I can't really see
The other side of the wall, is eating away at me
Anger and Coffee, feeling mean
Drinking black coffee, black coffee, black coffee, staring at the wall
Black coffee, black coffee, black coffee, staring at the wall
Black coffee, drinking black coffee, drinking black coffee, staring at the...
Stab through my heart, stab through my heart, stab through my heart
But its all in my mind, mind, mind, mind
Its just in my mind, mind, mind, mind
Its just in my mind

| Forever Time | |
|
Time
Time
Time
Forever time
It's time to walk by me
One last time, it's time
At first
Relax
Get set
Get your message from time
Time, time, time, time
Time
Time
Time
Forever time
It's time to look into my eyes
One last time, it's time
I feel I'm some kind of death machine
With skin and muscles and a heart
That pumps my blood
Time, time, time, time
Time
Time
Time
Forever time
It's time to kiss me goodbye
One last time, it's time
This is the first time
This is the last time
It's my only time
But it's only time
Time
Time
Time

| Fix Me | |
|
Someday
I'll feel no pain
Someday
I won't have a brain
They'll take away the part that hurts
And let the rest remain
Fix me
Fix my head
Fix me please, I don't wanna be dead
Someday
We'll all be rich
Someday
I won't listen to you bitch
I'll turn up the volume
And you can hear all the shit we play just for you
Fix me
Fix my head
Fix me please, I don't wanna be dead
Someday
I'll feel no pain
Someday
I won't have a brain
They'll take away the part that hurts
And let the rest remain
Fix me
Fix my head
Fix me please, I don't wanna be dead
Fix it!

| My War | |
|
My war you're one of them
You say that you're my friend
But you're one of them
You don't want to see me live
You don't want me to give
Cuz you're one of them
My war you're one of them
You say that you're my friend
But you're one of them
I might not know what a friend is
All I know is what you're not
Cuz you're one of them
My war you're one of them
You say that you're my friend
But you're one of them
I have a prediction, it lives in my brain
It's with me every day, it drives me insane
I feel it in my heart, that if I has a gun
I feel it in my heart, I'd wanna kill some
I feel it in my heart, the end will come
Come on!!
My war you're one of them
You say that you're my friend
But you're one of them
Tell me that I'm wrong
Try to sing me your ego song
You're one of them
My war you're one of them
You say that you're my friend
But you're one of them
My war.

| Jealous Again | |
|
You're jealous again
No, she's just a friend
Why can't I do anything without being yelled at?
Always on the phone
Never leave me alone
Why don't you just tell me what you want from me
Said I'll never leave you, no I'll never leave you
It's not the end, no it's not the end
I won't beat you up
But I won't push you around
Because if I do that the cops would grab me for doin' it
I want to go and have some fun
Go where the action is
Who the hell are you to tell me who my friends are
Said I'll never leave you, no I'll never leave you
It's not the end, no it's not the end
Said I'll never leave you, no I'll never leave you
It's not the end, no it's not the end
You're jealous again
You're jealous again
You're jealous again
And again and again
And again and again
And again and again

| I Love You | |
|
I put my fist through the door
I hate myself for you
I love you
Suspicion rules my very soul
My knife is sharp, my thougths are cold
I love you
I love you
Because, I love you
I can't talk, I can't think
My feelings burn inside of me
I love you
I practice my knife, I feel the power
I look in the mirror and I want to destroy her
I love you
I gave you my life, but what did I get?
Now it's time to take it back
I love you
I love you
Because, I love you
I hear a car, your footsteps outside
Knife in hand, love in heart
Sweating - I wait
I love you
You screamed, you bled, you laid on the floor
But now I know you'll leave me no more
I love you
I love you
Because, I love you

| Three Nights | |
|
Tonight I sit right down in my room
Going over it and over it again and again
Something's got a hold of me
And I just can't seem to shake myself loose
Let me go
Let me go
I'm surely breaking up
Tonight I'm gonna make that body pay
Tonight I'm gonna make that body scream
Tonight I'm gonna drop to my knees
I want to make you fell like you make me feel
I want to make you fell like you make me feel
I want to make you fell like you make me feel
There's a lover in my heart
Killer in my hands
Whiskey on my breath
Someone handed me a ladder
And for the longest time
I've been climbin' - to the bottom of it
Someone reached out and gave me their hand
And for the longest time
I've been trying to dislodge my teeth from it
My life is a piece of a shit that got caught in my show
And I've been grinding that stink into the dirt
For a long time now, now, now
I want to make you fell like you make me feel
I want to make you fell like you make me feel
I want to make you fell like you make me feel
I think you stuck my friends with knives
Dragged him out so he could die
One in his heart and three in each side - knives
Go ahead
Go ahead
Go ahead and stick me
Stick me.

| Nothing Left Inside | |
|
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing left inside
Love
Love
Nothing left inside
Pain in my heart
Pain hurts my heart
Nothing left inside
Lies
Your lies
Nothing left inside
I built it up
I broke it down
Nothing left inside
Leach
Drained me dry
Nothing left inside
Lonely, lonely, lonely
Lonely, lonely boy
Nothing left inside
I want to see you
I want to see you
I want you to see my eyes
Nothing left inside
Nothing left inside

| Wound Up | |
|
I walk by your house
To see if you were at home
It was my only chance
I felt so alone
It always seems
I get so wound up
To feel so let down
I get so wound up
I feel so let down
I get so wound up
I feel so let down
I get so wound up
I feel so let down
I get so wound up
Don't you ever see the way I look at you?
Could you understand why I feel the way I do?
I have a lot to show you
Feel I have something to prove
There's things I'd like to tell you
My brain is slow to move
I wish you'd give me a second
So I could make you see
That no one in the world could look at you
And see the things I see
I get so wound up
I feel so let down
I get so wound up
I feel so let down
I get so wound up
I feel so let down
I get so wound up
Don't you ever see the way I look at you?
Could you understand why I feel the way I do?
I have strong emotions
I keep them to myself
I know I can write them
I know I can sing them
That's what I'll have to do
Because in my heart
Deep in my heart
I keep a picture of you
I get so wound up
I feel so let down
I get so wound up
I feel so let down
I get so wound up
I feel so let down
I get so wound up
