Track Lyrics

Burnout Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I declare I don't care no more
I'm burnin' up and out and growing bored
In my smoked-out boring room
My hair is shaggin' in my eyes
Draggin' my feet to hit the street tonight
Drive along these shit town lights
[Chorus]
I'm not growin' up, I'm just burnin' out
And I stepped in line to walk amongst the dead
[Verse 2]
Oh, apathy has rained on me
And now I'm feelin' like a soggy dream
So close to drowning, but I don't mind
I'll live inside this mental cave
Throw my emotions in the grave
A-hell, who needs 'em anyway?
[Chorus]
I'm not growin' up, I'm just burning out
And I stepped in line to walk amongst the dead
I'm not growin' up, I'm just burnin' out
And I stepped in line to walk amongst the dead
Dead
(Dead)
Hoo
[Drum Solo]
[Chorus]
I'm not growin' up, I'm just burnin' out
And I stepped in line to walk amongst the dead
I'm not growin' up, I'm just burnin' out
And I stepped in line to walk amongst the dead
Dead

Having a Blast Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Takin' all you down with me
Explosives duct-taped to my spine
Nothing's gonna change my mind
I won't listen to anyone's last words
There's nothin' left for you to say
Soon you'll be dead anyway
[Chorus]
Well, no one here is getting out alive
This time, I've really lost my mind and I don't care
So close your eyes and kiss yourself goodbye
And think about the times we've spent and what they've meant
[Post-Chorus]
To me, it's nothin'
To me, it's nothin'
To me, it's nothin'
To me, it's nothin'
[Verse 2]
I'm losin' all my happiness
The happiness you pinned on me
A loneliness still comforts me
My anger dwells inside of me
I'm taking it all out on you
And all the shit you put me through
[Chorus]
Well, no one here is getting out alive
This time, I've really lost my mind and I don't care
So close your eyes and kiss yourself goodbye
And think about the times we've spent and what they've meant
[Post-Chorus]
To me, it's nothin'
To me, it's nothin'
To me, it's nothin'
To me, it's nothin'
[Bridge]
Do you ever think back to another time?
Does it bring you so down that you thought you lost your mind?
Do you ever want to lead a long trail of destruction
And mow down any bullshit that confronts you?
Do you ever build up all the small things in your head
To make one problem that adds up to nothin'?
[Outro]
To me, it's nothin'
To me, it's nothin'
To me, it's nothin'

Chump Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I don't know you, but I think I hate you
You're the reason for my misery
Strange how you've become my biggest enemy
And I've never even seen your face
[Chorus]
Well, maybe it's just jealousy mixin' up with a violent mind
A circumstance that doesn't make much sense
Or maybe I'm just dumb
[Verse 2]
You're the cloud hangin' out over my head
A-hail comes crashin' down, welting my face
Magic man, egocentric plastic man
Yet you still got one over on me
[Chorus]
Well, maybe it's just jealousy a-mixin' up with a violent mind
A circumstance that doesn't make much sense
Or maybe I'm just dumb
I'm a chump
[Bass Solo]
[Instrumental Outro]

Longview Lyrics

[Bass Intro]
[Verse 1]
I sit around and watch the tube, but nothing's on
I change the channels for an hour or two
Twiddle my thumbs just for a bit
I'm sick of all the same old shit
In a house with unlocked doors, and I'm fuckin' lazy
[Chorus]
Bite my lip and close my eyes
Take me away to paradise
I'm so damn bored, I'm goin' blind
And I smell like shit
[Verse 2]
Peel me off this Velcro seat and get me movin'
I sure as hell can't do it by myself
I'm feelin' like a dog in heat
Barred indoors from the summer street
I locked the door to my own cell and I lost the key
[Chorus]
Bite my lip and close my eyes
Take me away to paradise
I'm so damn bored, I'm goin' blind
And I smell like shit
[Bridge]
I got no motivation
Where is my motivation?
No time for the motivation
Smoking my inspiration
Huh
[Verse 3]
I sit around and watch the phone, but no one's callin'
Call me pathetic, call me what you will (We will)
My mother says to get a job
But she don't like the one she's got
When masturbation's lost its fun, you're fuckin' lonely
Suh
[Chorus]
Bite my lip and close my eyes
Take me away to paradise
I'm so damn bored, I'm goin' blind
And loneliness has to suffice
Bite my lip and close my eyes
I was slippin' away to paradise
A-some say quit or I'll go blind
But it's just a myth

Welcome to Paradise Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Dear mother, can you hear me whinin'?
It's been three whole weeks since that I have left your home
This sudden fear has left me tremblin'
'Cause now it seems that I am out here on my own
And I'm feelin' so alone
[Chorus]
Pay attention to the cracked streets and the broken homes
Some call it slums, some call it nice
I wanna take you through a wasteland I like to call my home
Welcome to paradise
[Verse 2]
A gunshot rings out at the station
Another urchin snaps and left dead on his own
It makes me wonder why I'm still here
For some strange reason, it's now feelin' like my home
And I'm never gonna go
[Chorus]
Pay attention to the cracked streets and the broken homes
Some call it slums, some call it nice
I wanna take you through a wasteland I like to call my home
Welcome to paradise
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Dear mother, can you hear me laughin'?
It's been six whole months since that I have left your home
It makes me wonder why I'm still here
For some strange reason, it's now feelin' like my home
And I'm never gonna go
[Chorus]
Pay attention to the cracked streets and the broken homes
Some call it slums, some call it nice
I wanna take you through a wasteland I like to call my home
Welcome to paradise
Oh, paradise

Pulling Teeth Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm all busted up
Broken bones and nasty cuts
Accidents will happen
But this time, I can't get up
She comes to check on me
Making sure I'm on my knees
After all, she's the one
Who put me in this state
[Chorus]
Is she ultra-violent? Is she disturbed?
I better tell her that I love her
Before she does it all over again
Oh God, she's killin' me
[Verse 2]
For now, I'll lie around
Hell, that's all I can really do
She takes good care of me
Just keep sayin' my love is true
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Is she ultra-violent? Is she disturbed?
I better tell her that I love her
Before she does it all over again
Oh God, she's killin' me
[Bridge]
Lookin' out my window for someone that's passin' by
No one knows I'm locked in here, all I do is cry
[Verse 2]
For now, I'll lie around
Hell, that's all I can really do
She takes good care of me
Just keep sayin' my love is true

Basket Case Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Do you have the time to listen to me whine
About nothin' and everything all at once?
I am one of those melodramatic fools
Neurotic to the bone, no doubt about it
[Chorus]
Sometimes, I give myself the creeps
Sometimes, my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid?
Am I just stoned?
[Verse 2]
I went to a shrink to analyze my dreams
She says it's lack of sex that's bringin' me down
I went to a whore, he said my life's a bore
So quit my whinin' 'cause it's bringin' her down
[Chorus]
Sometimes, I give myself the creeps
Sometimes, my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid?
Uh-yuh-yuh-yuh
(Ooh, ooh)
[Bridge]
Grasping to control
So I better hold on
[Chorus]
Sometimes, I give myself the creeps
Sometimes, my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid?
Am I just stoned?

She Lyrics

[Verse 1]
She, she screams in silence
A sullen riot penetrating through her mind
Waiting for a sign
To smash the silence with a brick of self-control
[Chorus]
Are you locked up in a world that's been planned out for you?
Are you feeling like a social tool without a use?
Scream at me until my ears bleed
I'm takin' heed just for you
[Verse 2]
She, she's figured out
All her doubts were someone else's point of view
Wakin' up this time
To smash the silence with a brick of self-control
[Chorus]
Are you locked up in a world that's been planned out for you?
Are you feeling like a social tool without a use?
Scream at me until my ears bleed
I'm takin' heed just for you
Yeah
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Are you locked up in a world that's been planned out for you?
Are you feeling like a social tool without a use?
Scream at me until my ears bleed
I'm takin' heed just for you

Sassafras Roots Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Roaming 'round your house, wasting your time
No obligation, just wasting your time
So why are you alone, wasting your time?
When you could be with me, wasting your time?
[Chorus]
Well, I'm a waste like you
With nothin' else to do
May I waste your time too?
[Verse 2]
Warding off regrets, wasting your time
Smoking cigarettes, wasting your time
I'm just a parasite wasting your time
Applying myself to wasting your time
[Chorus]
Well, I'm a waste like you
With nothin' else to do
May I waste your time too?
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
So why are you alone, wasting your time?
When you could be with me, wasting your time?
[Chorus]
Well, I'm a waste like you
With nothing else to do
May I waste your time too?
[Outro]
May I waste your time too?
May I waste your time too?
May I waste your time too?

When I Come Around Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, I heard you crying loud
All the way across town
You've been searching for that someone and it's me out on the prowl
As you sit around feeling sorry for yourself
Well, don't get lonely now
And dry your whining eyes
I'm just roamin' for the moment, sleazin' my backyard, so don't get
So uptight, you been thinking about ditching me
[Chorus]
No time to search the world around
'Cause you know where I'll be found
When I come around
[Verse 2]
Oh, I heard it all before
So don't knock down my door
I'm a loser and a user, so I don't need no accuser
To try and slag me down because I know you're right
So go do what you like
Make sure you do it wise
You may find out that your self-doubt means nothing was ever there
You can't go forcing something if it's just not right
[Chorus]
No time to search the world around
'Cause you know where I'll be found
When I come around
Hoo
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
No time to search the world around
'Cause you know where I'll be found
When I come around
[Outro]
A-when I come around
When I come around
When I come around

Coming Clean Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Seventeen and strung out on confusion
Trapped inside a roll of disillusion
[Chorus]
I found out what it takes to be a man
Well, Mom and Dad'll never understand
[Verse 2]
Secrets collecting dust, but never forget
Skeletons come to life in my closet
[Chorus]
I found out what it takes to be a man
Well, Mom and Dad'll never understand
What's happening to me
[Bridge]
Oh no
[Verse 3]
Seventeen and coming clean for the first time
I finally figured out myself for the first time
[Chorus]
I found out what it takes to be a man
Well, Mom and Dad'll never understand
What's happening to me

Emenius Sleepus Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I saw my friend the other day
And I don't know
Exactly just what he became
It goes to show
[Chorus]
It wasn't long ago
That I was just like you
And now I think I'm sick and I wanna go home
[Verse 2]
How have I been? How have you been?
It's been so long
What have you done with all your time?
And what went wrong?
[Chorus]
I knew you back when
And you, you knew me
And now I think you're sick and I wanna go home
[Bridge]
Anybody ever say no?
Ever tell you that you weren't right?
Where did all the little kid go?
Did you lose it in a hateful fight?
And you know it's true
[Chorus]
It wasn't long ago
That I was just like you
And now I think I'm sick and I wanna go home

In the End Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All brawn and no brains, yeah, and all those nice things, yeah
You finally got what you want
Someone to look good with and light your cigarette
Is this what you really want?
[Chorus]
I figured out what you're all about
And I don't think I like what I see
So I hope I won't be there in the end if you come around
[Verse 2]
How long will he last before he's a creep in the past
And you're alone once again?
Will you pop up again and be my special friend
'Til the end? And when will that be?
[Chorus]
I figured out what you're all about
And I don't think I like what I see
So I hope I won't be there in the end if you come around
Hey
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
I figured out what you're all about
And I don't think I like what I see
So I hope I won't be there in the end if you come around
