3. A Broken Figure
4. Not What You Asked For
5. Perfect Plastic World (v. 2004)
1. One Small Break
One sets out to destroy
and one sets out to save
One will have all
that they love torn apart
One will never pay
One is born to trust
One is born to deceive
One is born to follow,
broken on their knees and wallow
That one is born to believe
Like a final kiss from a dying sun
a flash of light and then its done
a momentary shock, then it blows away
no one said you have to stay
Every star in the sky will die
right before your eyes
The land will erode
The ocean dries
By the time that you’re ready
and you’ve planned it all
The bow is taken
and the curtain falls
Chorus:
Every second there’s a choice
Another path to take
Every minute there’s regret
and a chance for one small break
Every hour there’s a moment
where that break will start to give
Every day there is a chance
it will be the last you live
There’s a time you should use instinct
and a time to think things through
but you never know which one to use
until that time is through
You can swallow the pain
or you can choose
between climbing in a bottle
and climbing in a noose
(Chorus)
All it takes is a choice
All it takes is a cause
All it takes is a gain
All it takes is a loss
All it takes is a fault
You hope it’s all in the plan
All it takes is the will
but you don’t know if you can
One small break...
2. Just Like Hell
The violent art of blasphemy
The cold release of death
The sudden smile when you know you’re about
to take your final breath
Keep on reaching, ‘cause there’s nothing to find
No reward for your pain
There’s always someone who will help you get up
Then fuck you down again
If we’re being tested, everyone failed
Won’t make it through somehow
For every wish and dream I’ve one thing to say
We’re all fucked now
For every pitfall that you pull yourself from
You’ll fall back down again
If there’s a God, his gift to man is death
Use it while you can
And I’m sure you’ll know
When you find the way you want to go
All is done, all is said
And your way’s as clear as a bullet to the head
A final moment, a final prayer
A string of nothings that go nowhere
Whisper only to hear as you say
It’s just like hell and we’ll all be there someday
So now it’s ended, there’s no reason to stay
but it hurts so much to just walk away
and in a moment it’s just as well
but for a moment it’s just like hell
3. A Broken Figure
The path only leads where you’re willing to go
find the way for yourself because no one knows
how far you can be pushed until you start to crack
a lapse of reason that you cannot take back
Force a smile and the world never sees
The broken figure that you were meant to be
One deep breath and everything is fine
Then you’ll see that it comes down right on time
Let’s see what you can make
How much you can take and when you break
Is it time to laugh or should I start to cry
Maybe spread my wings and fucking die
Chorus:
Over time it comes together
Turn a blind eye, it eats you forever
and it’s slowly picking you apart
Break your will and tear out your heart
The fears you have the pain you know
Where the hell will the next one go
When you run out of ways to get about
Grab a gun ‘cause its your ticket out
The path you choose lives on after you
The aftermath of the things you do
Look at your wake, can you leave this behind
and if you did would anyone mind
The joy we feel, the hopes we grab
We’re still defined by the faults we have
No matter where you go or who you are
No one makes it through without the scars
So now the show is done
You’re not the only one whose time has come
It ends at death, it starts at birth
It’s up to you to see what it’s worth
Chorus w/
When you run out of ways to run and hide
You either take the pain or try suicide
4. Not What You Asked For
So this is where I lost control
and this is where I fell
This is where I thought it turned around
and then it went to Hell
This is where I finally learned to laugh
and this is where I stopped
This is where I took the weight of the world
and this is where it dropped
Why can’t we be saved by apathy
Defined by triumph and not by tragedy
You’re who you are when the wires come loose
Why can’t we find ourselves a better excuse
to explain the things that come just the same
The fear, the sorrow, the guilt, the pain
If they were gone, then I guess they’d be missed
but now they’re here and I never asked for this
But no one ever does
Falling, rising, matters of the heart
Another aspect of this dying art
And once you’ve figured it out my friend
it all comes down just to fuck you again
This is where I learned to stand
and this is where I crawled
This is where things started taking off
and this is where they stalled
This is where I chose to live by my will
and this is where I paid
This is where I finally gave up hope
and that is where I stayed
Forgive, forget, rejoice, regret
they’re just the scars that haven’t healed yet
We live for nothing and will ‘til we’re done
Then we find out just what we have won
There’s a seat awaiting down in Hell
Perhaps a spot in Heaven as well
Perhaps there’s no consequence in the end
Perhaps we get to go around again
So this is what we’re meant to be
and this is what we are
It’s somewhat funny, ‘cause you never know
How goddamn far down things can go
If it were easy, it’d be no fun
and no one would get anything done
No one cares about the things you’ve sought
It’s not what you asked for,
but here’s what you got
5. Perfect Plastic World (v. 2004)
I am nothing to anyone
Who I am has left me scarred too long
A twisted deformity in a Perfect Plastic World
How can I go on now that everything is wrong?
Hopeless, Defenseless, Lifeless
Chorus:
Nothing means a thing
when you hate what you’ve become
because no one ever changes
everyone just runs
Youth is wasted on the young
when they’re broken inside
Because the day you choose to live
may be the day you finally die
Today I was crucified
A perfect example of hope denied
Burned all my bridges, I stand alone
Not without sin, but I’ll cast the stone
Choke it back, Take it back, Force it back now
(Chorus)
