Frantic Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]

If I could have my wasted days back

Would I use them to get back on track?

Stop to warm at karma's burning

Or look ahead, but keep on turning?

Do I have the strength to know how I'll go?

Can I find it inside to deal with what I shouldn't know?

Could I have my wasted days back

Would I use them to get back on track?

[Refrain]

You live it or lie it, you live it or lie it

(You live it or lie it, you live it or lie it)

My lifestyle determines my death style

[Pre-Chorus]

Keep searching

Keep on searching

This search goes on

Keep searching

Keep on searching

This search goes on

[Chorus]

Frantic, tick, tick, tick-tock

Frantic, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick-tock

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]

I've worn out always being afraid

An endless stream of fear that I've made

Treading water full of worry

This frantic tick, tick talk of hurry

Do I have the strength to know how I'll go?

Can I find it inside to deal with what I shouldn't know?

Worn out always being afraid

An endless stream of fear that I've made

[Refrain]

You live it or lie it, you live it or lie it

(You live it or lie it, you live it or lie it)

My lifestyle determines my death style

[Pre-Chorus]

Keep searching

Keep on searching

This search goes on

Keep searching

Yeah, I keep on searching

This search goes on

On and on

[Chorus]

Frantic, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick-tock

[Bridge]

Do I have the strength to know how I'll go?

Can I find it inside to deal with what I shouldn't know?

Do I have the strength to know how I'll go?

Can I find it inside to deal with what I shouldn't know?

[Refrain]

Oh, my lifestyle (Birth is pain) determines my death style

A rising tide (Life is pain) that pushes to the other side

My lifestyle (Death is pain) determines my death style

A rising tide (It's all the same) that pushes to the other side

[Pre-Chorus]

Keep searching

Keep on searching

This search goes on

On and on

Keep searching

Keep on searching

This search goes on

On and on

[Chorus]

Frantic, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick-tock

[Instrumental Outro]

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse]

Saint Anger 'round my neck

He never gets respect

Saint Anger 'round my neck

[Pre-Chorus]

(You flush it out, you flush it out) Saint Anger 'round my neck

(You flush it out, you flush it out) He never gets respect

(You flush it out, you flush it out) Saint Anger 'round my neck

(You flush it out, you flush it out) He never gets respect

[Chorus]

Fuck it all and no regrets

I hit the lights on these dark sets

I need a voice to let myself

To let myself go free

Fuck it all and fuckin' no regrets

I hit the lights on these dark sets

Medallion noose, I hang myself

Saint Anger 'round my neck

I feel my world shake

Like an earthquake

Hard to see clear

Is it me? Is it fear?

I'm madly in anger with you

And I want my anger just for me

And I need my anger not to control

Yeah, and I want my anger to be me

And I need to set my anger free

Set it free

[Chorus]

Fuck it all and no regrets

I hit the lights on these dark sets

I need a voice to let myself

To let myself go free

Fuck it all and fuckin' no regrets

I hit the lights on these dark sets

Medallion noose, I hang myself

Saint Anger 'round my neck

[Post-Chorus]

I feel my world shake

Like an earthquake

Hard to see clear

Is it me? Is it fear?

I'm madly in anger with you

[Outro]

I'm madly in anger with you

Some Kind of Monster Lyrics

[Verse 1]

These are the eyes that can't see me

These are the hands that drop your trust

These are the boots that kick you around

This is the tongue that speaks on the inside

These are the ears that ring with hate

This is the face that I'll never change

This is the fist that grinds you down

This is the voice of silence no more

[Verse 2]

These are the legs that in circles run

This is the beating you'll never know

These are the lips that taste no freedom

This is the feel that's not so safe

This is the face you'll never change

This is the god that ain't so pure

This is the god that is not pure

This is the voice of silence no more

[Pre-Chorus]

We the people

Are we the people?

We the people

Are we the people?

[Chorus]

Some kind of monster

This monster lives

[Verse 3]

This is the face that stones you cold

This is the moment that needs to breathe

These are the claws that scratch these wounds

This is the pain that never leaves

This is the tongue that whips you down

This is the burden of every man

These are the screams that pierce your skin

This is the voice of silence no more

[Refrain]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 4]

This is the test of flesh and soul

This is the trap that smells so good

This is the flood that drains these eyes

These are the looks that chill to the bone

These are the fears that swing over head

These are the weights that hold you down

This is the end that will never end

This is the voice of silence no more

[Pre-Chorus]

We the people

Are we the people?

We the people

Are we the people?

[Chorus]

Some kind of monster

This monster lives

[Bridge]

This is the cloud that swallows trust

This is the black that uncolors us

This is the face that you hide from

This is the mask that comes undone

Ominous

I'm in us

Ominous

I'm in us

Ominous

I'm in us

Ominous

I'm in us

This is the cloud that swallows trust

This is the black that uncolors us

This is the face that you hide from

This is the mask that comes undone

Ominous

I'm in us

Ominous

I'm in us

Ominous

I'm in us

Ominous

I'm in us

Are we the people?

[Chorus]

Some kind of monster

This monster lives

Dirty Window Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I see my reflection in the window

It looks different, so different than what you see

Projecting judgement on the world

This house is clean baby, this house is clean

[Refrain]

Am I who I think I am?

I look out my window and see it's gone wrong

Court is in session and I slam my gavel down

[Pre-Chorus]

I'm judge and I'm jury and I'm executioner too

[Chorus]

Projector, protector, rejector, infector

Projector, rejector, infector, injector, defector, rejector

[Verse 2]

I see my reflection in the window

This window clean inside, dirty on the out

I'm looking different than me

This house is clean baby, this house is clean

[Refrain]

Am I who I think I am?

I look out my window and see it's gone wrong

Court is in session and now I slam my gavel down

[Pre-Chorus]

I'm judge and I'm jury and I'm executioner too

[Chorus]

Projector, protector, rejector, infector

Projector, rejector, infector, injector, defector, ejector, detector

[Bridge]

I, I, I, I

Ha ha ha ha...

[Pre-Chorus]

I'm judge and I'm jury and I'm executioner too

[Chorus]

Projector, protector, rejector, infector

Projector, rejector, infector, injector, defector, rejector

[Outro]

I, I, I, I

I drink from the cup of denial

I'm judging the world from my throne

I drink from the cup of denial

I'm judging the world from my throne, yeah

Invisible Kid Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Invisible kid

Never see what he did

Got stuck where he hid

Fallen through the grid

Invisible kid

Got a place of his own

Where he'll never be known

Inward he's grown

Right now

Ooh, what a good boy you are

Out of the way and you're kept to yourself

Ooh, can't you see that he's not here

He doesn't want the attention you give

Ooh, unplugging from it all

Invisible kid floats alone in his room

Ooh, what a quiet boy you are

He looks so calm floating 'round and around in himself

[Verse 4]

Invisible kid

Locked away in his brain

From the shame and the pain

World down the drain

My World Lyrics

[Verse 1]

The motherfuckers got in my head

Trying to make me someone else instead

It's my world now

It's my world

"Mama, why's it raining in my room?"

"Cheer up boy, clouds will move on soon!"

Heavy fog got me lost inside

Gonna sit right back and enjoy this ride

[Chorus]

It's my world, you can't have it

It's my world, it's my world

It's my world, you can't have it

It's my world, it's my world

It's my world, you can't have it

It's my world, it's my world

It's my world

Suck it!

I'm out of my head, out of my head

Get 'em out of my head, out of my head

Get 'em out

Ah yeah

Who's in charge of my head today

Dancing devils in angels way

It's my time now

It's my time

Yeah, it's my time!

Look out motherfuckers here I come

I'm gonna make my head my home

The sons of bitches tried to take my head

Tried to make me someone else instead

Ooh, it's my world, you can't have it

It's my world, it's my world

It's my world, you can't have it

Oh yeah I’m out of my head, out of my head

Get ‘em out of my head, get ’em out of my head

Yeah, get ‘em out

[Bridge]

Not only do I not know the answer

I don't even know what the question is

Not only do I not know the answer

I don't even know what the question is

God, it feels like it only rains on me

God, it feels like it only rains on me (Like it only rains on me)

God (Oh God oh God oh God) it feels like it only rains on me (Like it only rains on me)

[Bridge]

Not only do I not know the answer

I don't even know what the question is

Not only do I not know the answer

I don't even know what the question is

Sucka!

[Outro]

Out of my head, out of my head

Out of my head, get ‘em out of my head

Get ‘em out

Enough's enough

Suck!

Sweet Amber Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Wash your back so you won't stab mine

Get in bed with your own kind

Live your life so you don't see mine

Drape your back so you won't shine

Wash your back so you won't stab mine

Get in bed with your own kind

Live your life so you don't see mine

Drape your back so you won't shine

[Refrain 1]

Ooh, then she holds my hand

And I lie to get a smile

Ooh, then she holds my hand

And I lie to get a smile

[Pre-Chorus]

Using what I want to get what you want

[Chorus]

Oh, sweet Amber

How sweet are you?

How sweet does it get?

How sweet are you?

How sweet does it get?

[Verse 2]

Chase the rabbit, fetch the stick

She rolls me over until I'm sick

She deals in habits, deals in pain

I run away but I'm back again

Chase the rabbit, fetch the stick

She rolls me over until I'm sick

She deals in habits, deals in pain

I run away but I'm back again

[Refrain 2]

Mm, then she holds my hand

And I lie to get a smile, ooh yeah

Mm, then she squeezes tighter

I still lie to get a smile

Using what I want to get what you want

[Chorus]

Ooh, sweet Amber

How sweet are you?

How sweet does it get?

How sweet are you?

How sweet does it get?

She holds the pen that spells the end

She traces me and draws me in

The Unnamed Feeling Lyrics

[Intro]

(Been here before)

[Verse 1]

Been here before, couldn't say I liked it

But do I start writing all this down?

Just let me plug you into my world

Can't you help me be uncrazy?

Name this for me, heat the cold air

Take the chill off of my life

And if I could I'd turn my eyes

To look inside to see what's coming

[Pre-Chorus]

It comes alive, It comes alive, It comes alive

And I die a little more

It comes alive, It comes alive, It comes alive

Each moment here I die a little more

Ooh, I die, I die, I die

A little more

[Chorus 1]

Then the unnamed feeling

It comes alive

Then the unnamed feeling

Takes me away

[Post-Chorus]

(Been here before)

[Verse 2]

I'm frantic in your soothing arms

I can not sleep in this down filled world

Found safety in this loneliness

But I can not stand it anymore

Cross my heart, hope not to die

Swallow evil, ride the sky

Lose myself in a crowded room

You fool, you fool, it'll be here soon

[Pre-Chorus]

It comes alive, It comes alive, It comes alive

And I die a little more

It comes alive, It comes alive, It comes alive

Each moment here I die a little more

Ooh, I die, I die, I die

A little more

[Chorus 2]

Then the unnamed feeling

It comes alive

Then the unnamed feeling

Treats me this way

And I wait for this train

Toes over the line

And then the unnamed feeling

It takes me away, it takes me

Then the unnamed feeling

It comes alive, yeah yeah

Then the unnamed feeling

Takes me away, yeah it takes me away

[Bridge]

Get the fuck out of here

I just want to get the fuck away from me

I rage, I glaze, I hurt, I hate

I hate it all, why? Why? Why me?

I cannot sleep with a head like this

I want to cry, I want to scream

I rage, I glaze, I hurt, I hate

I want to hate it all away

[Chorus 3]

Then the unnamed feeling

It comes alive, yeah yeah

Then the unnamed feeling

Treats me this way

Then I wait for this train

My toes are over the line

And then the unnamed feeling

Takes me away, yeah, it takes me away

Then the unnamed feeling

It comes alive

Then the unnamed feeling

Takes me away

Purify Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Tear it down

Strip the layers off

My turpentine

Old paint, old looks

Cover up the past

White heat, white light

Super white bones

Bones of you and I

[Chorus]

Pure if I (Can't you help me?)

Pure if I (Won't you help me?)

Purify, you and I

Pure if I (Can't you help me?)

Pure if I (Won't you help me?)

You and I, purify

Purify!

[Verse 2]

Truth and dare

Peeling back the skin

Acid wash

Ghost white

Ultra clean

Wanna be skeleton

Clear eyes, diamond eyes

Strip the past of mine

My sweet turpentine

[Chorus]

Pure if I (Can't you help me?)

Pure if I (Won't you help me?)

Purify, you and I

Pure if I (Can't you help me?)

Pure if I (Won't you help me?)

You and I, purify

Oh, purify!

[Bridge]

I can find the dirt on anything

I ain't dancing with your skeletons

I, I ain't dancing with what might have been, no

[Chorus]

Pure if I (Can't you help me?)

Pure if I (Won't you help me?)

Purify, you and I

Pure if I (Can't you help me?)

Pure if I (Why won't you help me?)

You and I, purify

[Outro]

Come on, purify
