1 : Go
Oh please don't go out on me
Don't go on me now
Never acted up before
Don't go on me now
I swear I never took it for granted
Just thought of it now
Suppose I abused you
Just passing it on
Once fastened servile
Now your getting sharp
Moving oh so swiftly
With such disarm
I pulled the covers over him
Shoulda' pulled the alarm
Turned to my nemesis
A full on fucking god
Please don't go on me
Don't go on me
Don't go on me
Don't go on me
Please don't go on me
Don't go on me
Don't go on me
Don't go on me
Don't go on me
Don't you want me
Don't go on me
Don't go on me

Animal
Torch her from you to me
Abducted from the street
I'd rather be, I'd rather be with
I'd rather be with an animal
Why would you wanna hurt me
So frightened of your pain
I'd rather be, I'd rather be with
I'd rather be with an animal

Daughter
Alone, listless
Breakfast table in an otherwise empty room
A young girl, violins
Center of her own attention
Mother reads aloud, child
Tries to understand it
Tries to make her proud
The shades go down its in her head
Painted room
Can't deny there's something wrong
Don't call me daughter
Not fit to
The picture kept will remind me
Don't call me daughter
Not fit to
The picture kept will remind me
Don't call me
She holds the hand, that holds her down
She will, rise above
Don't call me daughter
Not fit to be
The picture kept will remind me
Don't call me

Glorified G
Got a gun
'Fact I got two
That's ok man cuz I love god
Glorified version of a pellet gun
Feels so manly
When armed
Glorified version of a pellet gun - (4x)
Don't think
Dumb is strength
Never shot at a living thing
Glorified version of a pellet gun
Feels so manly when armed
Glorified version of a pellet gun - (4x)
Always leave it loaded
Always leave it loaded
Always leave it loaded

Dissident
She nursed him there
Over a night
I wasn't so sure
She wanted him to stay
What to say, what to say
But soon she was down
Soon he was low
At a quarter past, a holy no
She had to turn around
When she couldn't hold, she folded
A dissident is here
Escape is never, the safest path
A dissident, a dissident is here
And to this day, she's glided on
Always home but so far away
Like a word misplaced
Nothing said, what a waste
When she had contact, with the conflict
There was meaning
But she sold him to the state
She had to turn around
When she couldn't hold, she folded
A dissident is here
Escape is never the safest path
A dissident, a dissident is here
She gave him away
When she couldn't hold, no, she folded
A dissident is here
Escape is never the safest path
A dissident, a dissident is here
Couldn't hold on, she couldn't hold
She folded
A dissident is here
Escape is never the safest place
A dissident is here

W.M.A.
He won the lottery
When he was born Took his mothers white breast to his tongue
Trained like dogs
Color and smell
Walks by me to get to him
Police man
Police man
He won the lottery by being born
Big hand slapped a white male american
Do no wrong
So clean cut
Dirty his hands
It comes right off
Police man
Police man
Police stopped my brother again - (3x)
Police man
Police man
Jesus greets me.. looks just like me
Do no wrong
So clean cut
Dirty his hands
It comes right off
Police man
Police man
Police man
Police stopped my brother again - (3x)
Police man
Police man
Police stopped my brother again - (3x)
Police man - (3x)
All my pieces set me free
Human devices set me free

Blood
Spin me 'round
Roll me over
Fuckin' circus
Stab it down
One way needle
Pull so slowly
Drains and spills
Soaks the pages
Fills there sponges
Its my blood
Its my blood
Painted big
Turn it into
One of his enemies
Its my blood
Its my blood
Its my blood

Rearviewmirror
I took a drive today
Time to emancipate
I guess it was the beatings
Made me wise
I'm not about to give thanks
Or apologize
I couldn't breath
Holdin' me down
Hand on my face
Kiss the ground
Enmity gauged
Knotted by fear
'Posed to endure
What I could not, forgive
I seemed to look away
Wounds in the mirror waved
It wasn't my surface
Most defiled
Head at your feet
Fool to your crown
Fist on my plate
Swallowed it down
Enmity gauge
Knotted by fear
Tried to endure
What I could not forgive
Saw things - (4x)
Clearer
Clearer
Once you, were in my
Rearviewmirror
I gather speed
From you fucking with me
Once and for all
I'm far away
Hardly believe
Finally the shades
Are raised
Saw things so much clearer
Once you, once you
Rearviewmirror

Rats
They don't eat
Don't sleep
They don't feed
They don't seethe
Bare their gums when they moan and squeak
Lick the dirt off a larger ones feet
They don't push
Don't crowd
Congregate until they're much too loud
Fuck to procreate till they are dead
Drink the blood of their so called best friend
They don't scurry when something bigger
Comes their way
Don't pack themselves together
And run as one
Don't shit where they're not supposed to
Don't take what's not theirs
They don't compare
They don't scam
Don't fight
Don't oppress an equals given rights
Starve the poor so they can be well fed
Line their holes with the dead ones bread
They don't scurry when something bigger
Comes their way
Don't pack themselves together
And run as one
Don't shit where they're not supposed to
Don't take what's not theirs
They don't compare
They don't scurry when something bigger
Comes their way
Don't pack themselves together
And run as one
Don't shit where they're not supposed to
Don't take what's not theirs
They don't compare
Rats
They don't compare
Rats
They don't compare
Ben... the two of us need look no more

Elderly Woman Behind The Counter In A Small Town
I seem to recognize your face
Haunting familiar yet, I can't seem to place it
Cannot find the candle of thought to light your name
Lifetimes are catching up with me
All these changes taking place
I wish I'd seen the place
But no ones ever taken me
Hearts and thought they fade
Fade away
I swear I recognize your breath
Memories like fingerprints are slowly raising
Me you wouldn't recall for I'm not my former
It's hard when your stuck upon the shelf
I changed by not changing at all
Small town predicts my fate
Perhaps that's what no one wants to see
I just want to scream, hello
My god its been so long
Never dreamed you'd return
But now here you are and here I am
Hearts and thoughts they fade, away
Hearts and thoughts they fade
Fade away

Leash
Troubled souls unite
We got ourselves tonight
I am a fuel.. you are friends
We got the means to make amends
I am lost
But I'm by your side
I am right by your side
Young lover I stand
It was their idea
I proved to be a man
Take my fucking hand
It was their idea
I proved to be a man
Will myself to find a home
A home within myself
We will find a way
We will find our place
Drop the leash
Drop the leash
Get outta' my fuckin' face
Drop the leash
Drop the leash
Get outta' my fuckin' face
Drop the leash
Drop the leash
Get outta' my fuckin Drop the leash
Drop the leash
Drop the leash
We are young
Drop the leash
We are young
Get outta' my fuckin' face
Drop the leash
Drop the leash
Get outta' my
Drop the leash
Delight
Delight
Delight in our youth
Get outta' my fuckin face

Indifference
I will light the match this mornin'
So I won't be alone
Watch as she lies silent
But soon light will be gone
Oh I will stand arms outstretched
Pretend I'm free to roam
Oh I will make my way through one more day
How much difference does it make
How much difference does it make
I will hold the candle
'Till it burns up my arm
Oh I'll keep takin' punches
'Till their will grows tired
Oh I will stare the sun down
Until my eyes go blind
I won't change direction
And I won't change my mind
How much difference does it make
How much difference does it make
I'll swallow poison until I grow immune
I will scream my lungs out
'Till it fills this room
How much difference
How much difference
How much difference does it make
How much difference does it make
