1. It's All Yours
Sometimes I wish I could be like you
Never easy to be me
I keep hurting myself
Without knowing why it had to affect me
The blackness of everything
didn't matter much to you
But did you ever say something
that wasn't a lie, something worthwhile
Burned a hole for all to see
to prove there is no God
Just don't ask me how I feel
I always hated to lie
It's all yours [x2]
We've got a failure to call our own
a reminder of what's to come
Thinking only of you as I'm
crawling to the point of no return
Do I need to erase myself
to cover up the scars?
Is there anything left?
the loss of it all nothing's worthwhile
Burned a hole for all to see
to prove there is no God
Just don't ask me how I feel
I always hated to lie
It's all yours [x2]
It's all... [x2]
It's all
It's all... [x2]
Burned a hole for all to see
to prove there is no God
Just don't ask me how I feel
I always hated to lie
It's all yours [x2]
It's all yours [x4]
2. Million Lies
Information gave me a choice,
Kill everything or more
I'm so very happy now,
according to my teenage whore
Hear my voice but it's not me,
I will always disagree.
Inhale then fade away
everything's different today.
Now I got me a new religion,
It will get me into shape.
I've changed personality
the old one always made me hate
So comfortable to stand in line
Keeps the voices out of my mind
The real thing's never what it seems
in a world of a million lies
A million lies - A million lies
A million lies - in a world of a million lies
Those insects drove me mad
always there to distract
To show my disbelief
I painted every fucker black
Wanna crawl all over you
Suck the smell of your dirty skin
Who could ever ask for more
in a world of a million lies
A million lies - A million lies
A million lies - in a world of a million lies
Suck the dirt of my skin... [x2]
Information gave me a choice,
Kill everything or more
I'm so very happy now,
according to my teenage whore
A million lies - A million lies
A million lies - in a world of a million lies
[Repeat x3]
Suck the dirt of my skin... [x2]
3. Prove Me Wrong
Who will make the decision
to kill what's already dead?
The silence kept drowning my voice
When I had so much more to say
I pretend I'm asleep again
because I don't want you to know
Can I escape from myself
and my fear to meet your eye?
I can smell your inside,
It's all over me by now
Though I'm as close as can be
I have never felt so alone
We fuck cause we have to
If we don't there's something wrong
pushing each other downhill
At least we're partners in this crime.
Why don't you prove me wrong,
show me what I can't see,
make me understand,
help me to understand...
Why don't you prove me wrong,
show me what I can't see,
help me
So things come and go,
and they sure went fast this time.
Strong hands big promises
gave me nothing to believe at all.
Turned me into a timebomb,
ready to explode in everyone's face.
Who would hear my confession
We don't listen anymore
No one can say we did not
carry the missing well.
Forever in debt to you for not
being what you wished of me?
Things got so difficult when I knew
that I could never win
thought I was out of my mind
to even think the way I did.
Why don't you prove me wrong,
show me what I can't see,
make me understand,
help me understand...
Why don't you prove me wrong,
show me what I can't see,
Why don't you prove me wrong,
show me what I can't see,
make me understand,
help me understand...
Why don't you prove me wrong,
show me what I can't see,
make me understand,
I wanna understand...
[Repeat x3]
We fuck cause we have to
If we don't there's something wrong
pushing each other downhill
At least we're partners in this crime
4. Owe You Nothing
Never learned to fake it,
even though you want me to.
Don't belong in your world,
won't be coming back no more.
Don't want you near me,
don't need you in my life.
Leave it all behind me,
I close my eyes and
it's all gone
Now I'm on the outside,
my reflection on your wall,
bite the hand that feeds me,
in order to stay alive
You could never hurt me,
the way you hurt yourself.
Nothing lasts forever,
I close my eyes and you are gone.
You are gone. [x2]
I am what you made me,
don't put the blame on me.
You are safe as always,
in your world of make believe.
I owe you nothing
I gave it all away.
Won't see me crawling,
seems like you have lost control.
You could never hurt me,
the way you hurt yourself.
Nothing lasts forever,
I close my eyes and you are gone.
You are gone. [x3]
I owe you nothing.
You are gone
I owe you nothing.
Now I'm on the outside,
my reflection on your wall,
bite the hand that feeds me,
in order to stay alive
You could never hurt me,
the way you hurt yourself.
Nothing lasts forever,
I close my eyes and you are gone.
You are gone. [x5]
I owe you nothing [x4]
5. Complicated Game
I ask myself should I put my finger to the left, no
I ask myself should I put my finger to the right, no
It doesn't really matter where I put my finger
someone else will come along and move it
It's always been the same
It's just a complicated game, yeah [x2]
little girl ask me should she part her hair upon the left, no
little girl ask me should she part her hair upon the right
I said it really doesn't matter where you part your hair
someone else will come along and move it
It's always been the same
It's just a complicated game, game yeah [x2]
yeah
little boy ask me should he put his foot upon the left, no
little boy ask me should he put his foot upon the right, right, right
I said it really doesn't matter where you put your foot
someone else will come along and move it
It's always been the same
It's just a complicated game, game yeah
It's just a complicated game, yeah
they want a Tom, they want a Joe
to dress him up and stick him out on show
They were only arrows in a very bad aim
It's just a complicated
they want a Tom, they want a Joe
to dress him up and stick him out on show
They were only arrows in a very bad aim
It's just a complicated
It's just a complicated game
God asked me should he also put his foot on the left, left, left, no
God asked me should he also put his foot on the right
I said it really doesn't matter where you put your foot
someone else will come along and move it
It's always been the same
It's just a complicated game

6. Taste It (Imaginary Gun)
Ready to dive,
to taste it
strain my nerve,
no, I won't lose
Time is right for adjustments,
bring me more
I will not hesitate,
what you see is what you get
Taste it, [x2]
Don't fake it
fake it
Closer this time,
your pigskin
conceal the sky,
with your big lie
Nothing left to fuck up,
further down
imaginary gun,
no I won't lose this time
Taste it, [x2]
Don't fake it
taste it
[Repeat x2]
I will not fade,
makes no sense at all
to apologies,
for something I am not
No God damn relapse,
I'll go for the throat
No God damn relapse,
though something is lost
Taste it, [x2]
Don't fake it
taste it
taste it [x4]
I will not fade... [x4]
7. Deny Everything
The wait for something,
the wait for someone
wish I could give it all up,
for the unknown
Hide behind the big nothing,
afraid to breathe
the cruicifixion of christ,
forever
Deny everything - deny everything
Deny everything - deny
What I don't know,
is what hurts me the most
what I can't see
is what scares me at night
It feels so useless,
everything turns black
I am back where I started,
over and over again
Deny everything - deny everything [x2]
Hide behind the big nothing,
afraid to breathe
the cruicifixion of christ,
forever more
Deny everything [x2]
Deny everything - deny everything [x2]
Deny everything
8. Them Nails
So small, so sick...
deny the truth,
hurts so much
can't face it no more
Can't turn around...
everyone is a pig,
upholding themselves
through exploitation
The end justifies the means,
no pleasure without pain
you push the limit
further away
I'll go anywhere
that ain't here,
wanna be anyone but me
I want everything at once,
I am looking for something else
Them nails [x2]
Them nails
I hate what's mine...
can't sleep at night,
walls are closing in on me
Effective, destructive...
humiliation, disintegration,
your God can't fix what's broken
You have taken this too far,
a manace to yourself
you push the limit further away
I'll go anywhere
that ain't here,
wanna be anyone but me
I want everything at once,
I am looking for something else
Them nails [x4]
Them nails
I hate what's mine...
The end justifies the means,
no pleasure without pain
You have taken this too far,
a manace to yourself
you push the limit further away
I'll go anywhere
that ain't here,
wanna be anyone but me
I want everything at once,
I am looking for something else
Them nails [x4]
Them nails
I hate what's mine... [x2]
9. Infected
There's something inside of me,
it tears it all apart.
What I once was can never be,
what you will be I'll never see.
Can't find the strength to erase it
as it crushes my will to live.
Don't want you close enough to smell me,
God I wish I had the courage to kill
Always there to beat me down,
to remind me of who I am.
The one to hold me back,
when I pretend I'm alive again.
Don't wanna be the way I am
I'd like to turn around and walk away.
I wish I had the courage to kill,
God I wish I had the courage to kill
I wish I had the courage to kill
No one can see me now,
alone with my doubt and fear.
I'm so tired of myself,
so if you leave me can I come to?
once I tried to listen,
but I just could not understand.
I'm a stranger to myself,
so if you leave me can I come to?
if you leave me can I come to?
Am I someone special?
Can I be replaced?
I keep repeating myself,
did I disappoint you?
Did I always fail?
I keep repeating myself
There's something inside of me,
it tears it all apart.
What I once was can never be,
what you will be I'll never see.
Can't find the strength to erase it
as it crushes my will to live.
Don't want you close enough to smell me,
God I wish I had the courage to kill
Am I someone special?
Can I be replaced?
I keep repeating myself,
did I disappoint you?
Did I always fail?
I keep repeating myself
am I acting strange?
or just like everyone else?
I keep repeating myself.
Can't someone help me?
Can't you see I'm afraid,
can't you see I'm afraid... [x2]
I'm afraid [x2]
10. Feed the Creep
Between these walls,
we were so safe
our perfect home would not
let anything disturbing in.
A swastika's been carved,
everything's so quiet,
no one's seen or heard a thing
Smell the fear, feel the heat
Burn my skin, paint it black
Forced to submit, silent agreement
something clean wasted by disease
Seek for strength,
in the common weakness
what gave you the right,
you had no...
Feed the creep [x4]
The only thing is absence
???
Now, the message is clear,
we've all gone blind,
can only see
what we wanna believe.
A swastika's been carved,
everything's so quiet,
what gave you the right,
you had no fucking right
no fucking right
Feed the creep [x8]
Smell the fear, feel the heat
Burn my skin, paint it black
paint it black
Smell the fear, feel the heat
Burn my skin, paint it black
Feed the creep [x8]
11. Not the Only One
I hide from your faces,
don't want to be seen
to be gone forever,
what does that mean?
Models kept smiling
million dollar smiles,
crosses kept burning
on the day that you died
To leave is a failure,
no good on our own
needs to be needed,
so give dog a bone.
Hope I don't talk
in my sleep tonight
I don't know what
I might say tonight...
tonight
No time to question,
these days end
so fast our skin's
made of concrete,
paid well to last.
A sense of security,
despite the violation.
If you need to escape
from something,
you're not the only one
You're not the only one
with doubts
You're not the only one
that hurts
don't ever let them take
it all away
won't let them take
anything away
away
The model still smiles
the crosses still burn...
burn.
You're not the only one
with doubts
You're not the only one
that hurts
don't ever let them take
it all away
won't let them take
anything away
You're not the only one
with doubts
You're not the only one
that hurts
don't let them take
it all away
won't let them take
any fucking thing away
away [x2]
your not the only one
