I knew a man, I 'm proud to say
But he couldn't live in a world he couldn't see The laws of life, it 's ways are cold Hidden patterns genetic mold No one seemed to know for sure A knowing look of falling to death 's door Living unreal, time is to steal Booking passage on a journey unknown Blackened veins of nihilistic sadness A painted mask substance induced gladness With a spike or from a bottle Tiny cartoon pictures on a square of paper blotter He was a man, was fear's machine Sickness don't fail, don't succumb to self-esteem Unseen vessel, undreamed flight No one knows if you were wrong or if you were right R.I.P. H.B. [Dedicated to Dough (H.B.) Caldwell - R.I.P.] |

Every time I'm on the street
People laugh and point at me They talk about my length of hair And the out of date clothes I wear They say I look like the living dead They say I can't have much in my head They say my songs are much too slow But they don't know the things I know I know I don't belong And there's nothing I can do I was born too late And I'll never be like you In my life things never change To everybody I seem strange But in my world now something's died So I just stare with these insane eyes I know I don't belong And there's nothing that I can do I was born too lte And I'll never be like you |

I see colours everywhere
I have things living in my hair In the dark, I see lights My brain is working overtime On clear windowpane In my house, all things glow My walls are a living light show Purple dragons, smoke with me I have friends only I can see On clear windowpane I can't handle coming down 'Cause I can't take the human crowd I can't face reality So I fly back to where I am free On clear windowpane |

Frightened people listen
To a dragon's growl It's sleep was disturbed Now it's time to prowl Off in the distance Villages burn Frightned people running Next, it's their turn It's dragon's time in the village tonight People screaming filled with fright No way to save their simple homes Dragon't breath is burning bright Lighting up the darkest night Leaving desolation all around Ancient wings unfolding The lair's come alive Ancient lips are cracking As they're grinning wide Taking to the air With gleaming yellow eyes Driven mad by hunger In search of any life (Repeat chorus) (Repeat first verse) (Repeat chorus) Leaving desolation all around |

I have got to change my ways
'Cause I'm losing my mind I have got to stop drinking 'Cause I'm dying inside I feel twice as old as I am And it's getting worse I'm in the palm of habit's hand I can't escape the curse There is nothing that I can do I have no self control I have let myself become dead I have ruined my soul Every time I wake up sick I say never again But then opportunity knocks And I'm wasted my friend I can't control my addiction I've tried time and time again I'm losing all my friends and lovers Alcohol knows it's gonna win Now I have lost everything And I really don't care Everybody that I have known Has out cast me here Drinking has wasted my life And I'm dying inside I feel twice as old as I am I've lost what left of my mind I can't control my addiction I've tried time and time again I'm losing all my friends and lovers Alcohol knows it's gonna win |

Look into the void
Beware of the dark It hypnotised your soul Prepare to fall Into the hole Do you feel the wretched cold As your mind 's turning all what 's told Regretting, remembering The Evil seeds of old Embraced in your pain and your sorrow There's no time left to borrow Falling in a void If you see a light And not a darkening swell Rescue me now Before I reach Hell Are you shivering limbs intact Do you care where you'll impact Falling in a bottotmless pit Is there no end to this moronic wit |

Foggy morning drifting 'round you
Blackened haze You can't see past your trembling hand Pounding footsteps right behind you Every day Shadows from an empty man Look behind you Echoed screaming in your ears Constantly Reaching for your loaded gun Ringing in forbidden fears Suddenly Look behind you as you run Look behind you Turn the corner, dead-end street, you can't go on What are you gonna do? By yourself right from the start You live in doubt Everything was all dreamed up by you Look behind you Look behind you Look behind you |

When is the time, to do something about your agony
Without a dime, you can't moan about the way it should be The passion is there, let it come out naturally You need not care, how others might think you should be Look at the past, the name of the game was pain The pleasure don't last, you lost what there was to gain Hurtin' so many, lovin' so few The one good thing that you can do Playing the stars your melodies Livin's so hard when it's on your knees You know what's right, and you know that kindness can It's a mental fight and the winner is a man Open your eyes, shake your head Raise your body from the dead Cold gray haze will never stay Don't ever let'em take your strength away |

Last night I went to Hell
The tenement, it smelled Of the stench of death The shooting gallerie's breath I saw women and men Kill themselves again and again They make their own disease And the end they will not see Yesterday I had a girl To me, she meant all the world Until the needle filled her arm Now she fills me with alarm Tombstone graves fill her eyes She looks at me with mad despise I pitty her destiny Now she's only hating me They say that they don't care at all The world is fucking sad On that point I agree with them But nothing is that bad Poison disease, eating through their minds They will never see the end of the line I will never understand why they do it to themselves Why they choose a life that so resembles Hell Now I stand in pouring rain At a friend's funeral again Tears fill my eyes He lived a tortured life And as I walk away I see another stray Stumbling down the street It seems so sad to me (Repeat chorus) |

"I'll give you the creeps!"
Creepy feeling deep inside Makes you sweat, burns your eyes It's behind you, then it's not there Drives you crazy, pull out your hair Try to live a normal life Too much pressure, too much strife You missed the edge, you're locked away Live with your fears everyday Creepy feeling deep inside Staying with you, runs your life Doctors let you out today They say you're cured, you're just not safe |

Don't tell me about your problems
I don't want to hear You brought them upon yourself I don't want to hear You thought nuclear war was The right thing to do Now you 've brought armies of mutants Upon me and you You give me excuses that make no sense I don't want to hear You know my feelings, you can't understand I can't make it clear Take a good look at the world That you destroyed This is what we get because you played With lives, like toys Once upon a time, when everything was green The Earth was pure and happy and everything was clean Then along came man, he trashed and spoiled it all And now he wonders why, why is he going to fall Now you 're sorry, now you 're crying I don't want to hear Ask for salvation, nobody listens They don't want to hear You have started the end of the end You 've done your bit The rest of us are leaving now You live with it |

I live inside you
Depression is my name I'll crack your world with Bitter mental games You try to suppress me But nothing holds me down Just when you think you're happy I come around I was meant to be A punishment to you A thorn in your side A cancer eating through I twist reality And make it hard to bear I am the only thing left When love isn't there I'm taking over I'll snap your mind in two I'll make suicide seem Like the right thing to do You try to drown me With alcohol and pills But in the end you are The only one that kills |

I've been down so long, I cannot see
Any way out of me I live under rocks and under stones That's where I spend my time alone People don't know I exist Their company is never missed I never see the light of day Somehow that don't bother me Nothing ever changes I gave up trying Once I stuck my head above ground I didn't like what was around Crime, disease and poverty All of this assaulting me People shove as hard as they can No one lends a helping hand You could drop dead in the street And they'd just laugh hysterically Nothing ever changes I gave up trying Worlds may come and worlds may go I'll just stay here down below Bats and worms are my friends They'll stick with me until the end Don't want to be a part of your land 'Cause down here I am my own man I live and hope eternally For a world filled with peace Nothing ever changes I gave up trying |

I have seen a thousaint wars
And I will see a thousaint more I have heard the childrens cry And I have seen their bodies fry You know me, you've seen my face All around this wretched place You can call me warrior But I'm actually the war starter Long ago in days of old I gave you clubs then broadswords Now you use machinery New toys of war, new toys for me You've elected one of my Right-hand men to lead your kind After war saves your economy He'll soothe you with artificial peace Mushroom clouds, atomic fright Burning winds, your towns ignite I have taught you very well How to create your own Hell Blind mice follow their leaders No one wins, it's the end of class Puch your button and you 've passed |
