And now you're searching
For that new messiah It's your greatest passion, To set'em up and knock'em down Put them on a pedestal idolatry, Wear the ring you're married It's all yours to their envy, Because you hold a higher key of senses And they are drawn like magnets, To a genius, it's confirmed Chorus Set'em up and knock'em down, Tour taste is so accountable This is no great loss, And sharing never was a choice It's burning on your cross, It gives you credit and a voice Here to relay tour beautiful ideals Vicaruiously through them And when he died too many were sympathetic, And they are all pathetic So you dethrone your king, Without listening, without ever listening And Jesus Christ is realized, As he burns on your cross But this is no great loss, Another one will come The wait is short the search is brief, You find another faith, Another Clark Kent, another Superman, Flashing in the pan [repeat chorus] And now you are searching For that new messiah It's your greatest passion, It's the latest fashion |

I am just another fool, and I have to, keep telling myself that I am just a hypocrite, and I have to, keep calling you one Cause I forgot to bite my tongue, and my assumption, is the mother of all mistakes But I assume the role, open my mouth, and clumsy words escape So why you, wanna be there, when you could be here, you are slipping away I awake to your replacement, a bottle in my mouth, in an unfamiliar place Because you put me out, the butt of a sick joke, into this ashtray life As you come and go, cause I forgot to service you, and we broke down And you can't live with my mistakes, but I assume false grace Open my arms and grasp for something true How are you, how have you been, girl I miss you, wanna see you again Oh why you, wanna be there, when you could be here, you are slipping away I bring out the worst in you, and you try to let me know You bring out the worst in me, anxiety, anxiety I'm trying to let you go, you say I'm giving you the creeps But I assume the role, open my claws and grasp for your heart How are you, how have you been, girl I miss you, wanna see you again Into you like a mortal stake so vindictive Your love's slipping away Violins, into this ashtray life Violins, the butt of your sick joke Violins, I'm trying hard to let you go Violins |

Crysti can't take all the pressure
Kevin hates the girls He dates Mia says she's gonna snap I need a new car to drive away Derek beats up all his girlfriends Jessie likes to comb his hair Hanacek is on the wagon I tried not to speak today Chorus: You slip and fall They pick you up and throw you down again I left them there and found them here I was rarely smart enough to dodge the careless words You find them everywhere It breaks you into two Emily had sex with Joey Chris is weird He must be gay Everyone is smoking H And I tried hard to laugh today Every word you hear you repeat Every word you repeat you change Here's a quarter There's a phone Why don't you call someone who cares Repeat chorus I left them there and found them here It breakes me into two |

You've got a think about being lame
You think you'll show us all your handicap is great You've got a think about being lost You think with our concern you'll find yourself And you'll never be forgotten Your family never wanted this one with all of her flaws She's trailing far behind she's feeling incomplete She has no will to win, listening, I live inside your room And you punish me as though I punish you Dumb, before it's done I am saint, will you tell me now I never could relate to how you've been forgotten Your family never wanted this one with all of her flaws But I want to know was this deprivation of money or of love [pre-chorus] This is the last time you will be denied girl You want that world that they took away Go pick up the pieces find inner strength 'cause I can't save you Find the life you left in a box the world, you said has cut you off [chorus] Bombs await you, bombs away Now let them all fall down You carry the burden, it fills you with regret, you never finished That feeling incomplete, you carry their baggage, the guilt that holds you down [repeat pre-chorus] [repeat chorus] Bombs away now 'cause life's been so hard and so long That's why I'm writing you this song |

Hi, it's me I'm bored again, all is well I'm not insane
I've been drunk for seven days, everything is fine I made some friends, broke the ice, then I ate some bread and cheese To gain some weight, keep me warm everything's okay. It's me, delivering psychosis, over the phone to you I color your world blue, ten thousand miles from you I'm sinking all alone, treading new waters, We're is my buoy? The van smells like a dirty sock, everyone has got the flu I'd rather be sick of you, I'd rather be asleep It's me, delivering psychosis, over the phone to you I color your world blue, ten thousand miles from you I'm sinking all alone, treading new waters, I'm missing my buoy When I get home, the band will have, it's first hit song You and I, will buy some rings, and a suburban home I'll bring home, the bacon bits, we'll make our parents grandparents I'll take you out, to breakfast at night, and then we'll go to sleep |

I've been living for years in question, some obsession
Was I less to live with no answers, as a life cried wolf I'm ashamed to mention my anguish, but silence lies empty If I say it again can I kill it, will you lend me your ears Breathe in breathe out exhale, acting sweating A broken smile provides them a view, projection is nothing new Just once I would like them to feel it, suffer in my skin For a moment stand in my shoes, filled with swelling blues [chorus] I keep this room, and this room keeps me, chained to my organs I am quarantined, to a place that's dark, staring at three walls The door is locked to them Maybe now that they all know it, you'll find solace As you're drowning in narcissism, or is it self-loathing You fought it all in your head boy, psychosomatic They used to humor you now they pity you, and nothing's changed [repeat chorus] The door is locked behind me, if I say it again can I kill it 'Cause they're sick of my complaining and i am sick of being sick Maybe these will cure you completely, chemicals deeply Saviors until you're dependent, don't let them go to your head I'm ashamed to mention my anguish, but silence lies empty, silence lies |

He knows no shame, and takes no blame
This simpleton, sees everything He's only satisfied, To point out other's mistakes Never afraid, to use his pride His tradition is old, His faith a hand-me-down, the family He wears them on his sleeve, Morale and values left under a christmas tree He once had the gift, This image in his grandparents eyes No guns, no drugs, no rape, no end This vacant soul, is pale and blue, In empty gaze, his crow's feet are A vision of defeat sick And tired of the meaninglessness The irrationale he's desensitized, His every need and emotion A cup half empty, But full of euphoria he's, Searching for the light switch in the dark, To switch his routine To find a reason, To find faith in piece of mind When one to many beliefs die, It's tough to see through these black eyes Everyone forgives everyone forgets Everyone is true And no one here will lie to you He knows the truth, He knows the truth, Here nothing's certain Disregard what you've learned, To find faith in piece of mind All of their gods died with his peace, I should know him that heathen?s me |
