Change My Skin Silent wind blows and Slow rain does fall when Clouds fill my thoughts I slow down I can change my skin Hide the faces deep within Cause I don’t know who I am Serenade me with Singing angels, I Can’t live like this Wanna Slow down Should I change my skin? Hide the doubt so deep within? Cause I don’t know who I am So would you take a fool like me and Hand me peace through identity replacing This life I’m wasting when you’ve been waiting You can change my skin Sparking beauty deep within Cause you know who I am Back
Comfort Ever since the day I met you I have been looking for something I could hold At the end of every dead end highway I found you standing right where you were all along I am so lucky I would be empty without your love I would have nothing without your touch I spent all day thinking of you Recounting every single moment I have had Knowing I can truly trust you Sends and endless wave of comfort through my head I am so lucky I would be empty without your love I would have nothing without your trust Back
Counterfeit Back
Down to Me Should I lie face down in the mud And Cry because I tripped myself Should I bring everyone down with me Just cause I want to soak up sympathy Am I so blind that I can only see myself Or am I scared of what I might find out there Now should I sulk, Should I mourn Or should I try to become something I haven’t before Will you come down to me Cause I can’t build up to you And I’m sick of trying Will you scrape this cesspool clean Cause I can’t see what I’m doing And I don’t want to drown in here Should I refrain, or embrace This libido that I know will only rip me away From who I love and what I need All these people who have meant so much to me And it all blends, right and wrong Into a grey that penetrates into the depths of my soul So I can’t know and I can’t see Inside these caverns of confusion I stumble blindly and bleed Will you come down to me Cause I can’t build up to you And I’m sick of trying Will you scrape this cesspool clean Cause I can’t see what I’m doing And I don’t want to drown in here Back
Heaven or Hell I heard the footsteps walking up the stairs and down the hall I heard them walking out the door I saw an angel cry about what she lost and what had happened And how she fell I’m sorry for who I am I’m not the best thing to cross your path It’s not like I don’t care But there’s not much left to care about I watched a numb man walk into a store and sell his soul to them I watched him throw his life away I saw a devil cry about his fate and vile position I watched him writhe I’m sorry for who I am I’m not the best thing to cross your path It’s not like I don’t care But there’s not much left to care about Back
In My Room I’m alone again Just like I’m supposed to be No running away I’m not scared today I’m just sad because I know That I live in a cage So don’t you talk to me Cause I’ve lost everything I loved Or could have had Look into my eyes Can you see the flood of tears I have not cried So, so long and if you want to know I’ll be waiting here by the telephone Waiting for God to call me home I’m alone again Back
Infidels Rejoice you nation of infidels Rejoice you nation of infidels We looked on as millions died On satellite TV in our comfort ride When we said we cared And we said we tried I wish that we all knew we lied Call me extreme Call me confused But I include myself in here with you You can say I’m obscene You can say my screw’s loose But I include myself in here with you Rejoice you nation of infidels Your conscience shrinks as your head swells We killed our children Then we killed the people Who killed those babies We hid behind a steeple We hate each other Black, brown, red, yellow, white Sometimes we want everyone else to die We heard the blood screaming from the ground And somehow mistook it for the sound Of our fathers praising this great country Built on liberty, happiness and slavery Rejoice you nation of infidels Your conscience shrinks as your head swells Call me extreme Call me confused But I include myself in here with you You can say I’m obscene You can say my screw’s loose But I include myself in here with you Rejoice you nation of infidels Your conscience shrinks as your head swells Back
Iscariot There’s something wrong with me now The same old shit again It’s selfish how I do this Betraying all my friends The darkness feels so strong now It’s holding me tonight I know that I’m an asshole And I didn’t do what’s right I fell through There’s something twisted about this A train run off the tracks My friends all give their love to me Then I stab them in their backs Is my apology something? Or is my life what you see now? For what it’s worth, I’m sorry Wish to redeem myself somehow I fell through I failed you I am Iscariot And I love you But I hurt you I love you But I hurt you Back
Jungle I hear a lot of things around here changed and I hear the things that I did were in vein It all became a game Old friends have all become so different Things got twisted and manipulated Here we go again I cry It’s like I never tried I’m watching my friends They’re dropping like flies One by one, two by two Three by three they go into The jungle I hear my old friend just got sent to jail I hear he’s not doing so well The drugs got him again I know there was nothing I could do about it Somehow I still feel responsible but There was nothing I could do I cry It’s like I never tried I’m watching my friends They’re dropping like flies One by one, two by two Three by three they go into The jungle Back
Kissing Christ I just lost a part of me I loved I’ve become an enemy to trust You just lost a part of me you loved I just sold your life away to dust How far would you go to be known? I just paid the sinners debt, I was sold I just kissed the lips of death, they were cold I just tied this rope and I’m just hanging here Once you lock the door it’s over (Don’t lock the door) it’s over How far would you go to be known? I’m just hanging here Back
Nine Eleven I’ve been crying all day long For all of the people I saw Jumping, falling down I cry for you Hear me brothers Can you see what’s going on? Love your women Love your children Love your nation Love your God I’ve got something to say to all Of those who think their strongest buildings can’t fall Behold the Roman Empire Has gone Watch it rise up watch it fall down Tides have turned and cities drowned Hear me brothers Don’t you see what’s going on? Love the women Love the children From all nations Love like God Back
Note to Self The lines you drew are all crossed The love you had is now lost You might as well just live it up This sea of fear surrounds you Your boat is a stranded refuge Your oar is gone and you are lost But you’re happy aren’t you? You’re gonna live this life alone Your morals, killed by actions Your wisdom, spoiled and lacking You might as well just give this up This silent face just haunts you The open arms you once knew The love that ran so deep and wide But you’re happy aren’t you? Why do you do this on your own? I hate you I hate you I hate you I hate you Back
Seventeen Come to me Sweet princess You’ve kissed my lips And breathed my breath Let’s go to a place Where there’s nothing to run away from Except ourselves It’s always been The simple things That have meant the most to me Sharing a sweater in the rain Or the way your eyes flash when you smile The way that you laugh when you’re tired The things that you say when you’ve left reality behind We can complete our own fairy tale So much in love with so much left to do Let’s do the best we can Come to me Sweet princess Kiss my lips And breathe my breath Let’s go to a place Where there’s nothing to run away from Except ourselves Back
Siamese Sin My head is splitting at the seams Sometimes you stalk me in my dreams So hard to lose love for truth So hard to lose love Sometimes you call me from far away Across land and water, I can’t see your face So hard to lose love for truth So hard to lose love with you Time has left me more lonely Sometimes you come when I’m confused Sometimes you come dressed to seduce So hard to lose love for truth So hard lose love with you We never meant to be so cruel I’m through Our love became vanity Siamese insanity Connected, abused So I must perform surgery Full fucking lobotomy So I can lose you We never meant to be so cruel Back
Simplicity This is not the same I will explain I have to say What I’m feeling I will be your fool, your angel I will stay with you through trouble I will wait for you as long as I need to I will be your simple dream You’ve changed the world for me You’ve given me such peace Through this simplicity I’ve been waiting so long To arrive in your arms And to kiss your lips It’s you I’ve missed I saw you standing there With perfect purple hair And I wanted you I will be your fool, your angel I will stay with you through trouble I will wait for you as long as I need to I will be your simple dream You’ve changed the world for me You’ve given me such peace Through this simplicity Back
Sinking Ships Still don’t know what you see in me Your holy, humble servant in chains At least now I seem to be free But my cold heart remains the same I love to harbor evil thoughts And tie them all down at the pier Where I work so very hard To build them bigger and bigger I’m scared because You can see right through me And I am hardly real All I want is control Just shove me away I’ve got the plastic disease So melt off my face I only want to serve me So make me your slave Go knock my favorite ships around Like “Heart’s Desire” and “Jealousy” I want all the captains there to drown So I don’t have to hear from them I’m scared because You can see right through me And I am hardly real All I want is control Just shove me away I’ve got the plastic disease So melt off my face I only want to serve me So make me your slave Back
Spitting in the Face of God I will speak to you of loneliness Even though I’m with somebody else And I will speak to you of emptiness When all I really love is myself How many lessons must I learn like this? My failure has really took its toll And how many bridges must I burn to find A situation that I can control The air is turning black This curtain is torn in half I will speak to you of charity Even though I’m sure that I have none And I will speak to you of inheritance Although I’m sure that mine has been forgotten How many demons must I sacrifice In order to work my way to you Cause grace died in here a long time ago And the apostles and the prophets are but few The sky is turning black This savior is torn in half Your scars are on his back But you don’t care about that Why don’t you spit in his face some more You like that Common spit in his face some more I will speak to you of arrogance Cause I can see it in your eyes And I will speak to you of piety For it will be your demise Back
Sunrise Sunrise, feeling slow Sunrise, feeling cold Your eyes, gone I had to go I had to go home I had to go There’s a part of you in me That’s burning up my mind It’s keeping me alive And you will always be A comfort in these times The patience in my life Sunrise, feeling rushed In your eyes, seeing trust You’re saying “Come to me baby” While I breathe with you baby While I breathe with you baby “Come to me now Just come in my arms No fears and no alarms Come with me baby Come with this peace Into our eternity Come with me” Sunrise, feeling real Sunrise, feeling healed Come with me Back
Technicolor Welcome to this brave new Technicolor world Where everything looks brighter than it’s worth Isn’t it exciting, with different kinds of lighting We don’t have to look so dull and uninviting Cause who’s idea was it that we should all be honest anyway? And deep inside our bitter hearts just burn For something that we don’t deserve And the longer we let it go It grows more and more out of control It’s like TV Someone please hear me There’s not much worth seeing In this Technicolor world Welcome to this new shining jealous parade The drivers are all drunk and the celebrities fell asleep Isn’t it exciting, all the babies crying And all the daddies fighting with mamas who are lying Cause who’s idea was it that we should all be honest anyway? And deep inside their bitter hearts just burn For something that they don’t deserve And the longer they let it go It grows more and more out of control It’s like TV Someone please hear me There’s not much worth seeing In this Technicolor world Back
Tortoise I sit down to write the song of my life But the words are all blending together The lyric’s the same, of mind-numbing pain Still nothing seems to get better I’m violent, I’m mean, I’m not what I seem To everyone around me I’m a liar, I’m a thief, I’m beyond belief Still nobody seems to expose me Expose me I’m a tortoise, I’m old, I’m tired and I’m sore I’m still just as slow and lazy I’ve wrote this before but I still ignore That every line is about me Every line’s about me Every line’s about me Every line’s about me Back
Tunnel It takes me a while To pull out of this shell Look back at what I’ve been Separate the good from sin It takes me more than time To kill what needs to die Stop living in this lie And do what I know is right I either hate or embrace I have no lines or sense of taste It’s my foundation not my face That needs to change Cause I’m not going to stay I seldom ever see Anyone but me This tunnel vision leads Far from what I need I either hate or embrace I have no lines or sense of taste It’s my foundation not my face That needs to change Cause I’m not going to stay It’s impossible to believe That’s what my feelings say But they have lied to me Jesus gonna break my chains I either hate or embrace I have no lines or sense of taste It’s my foundation not my face That needs to change Cause I’m not going to stay Back
Urge to be Angry Oh how I’m screaming now Sweat on my brow My skin is shaking Somehow your voice is loud But your face is shrouded And I hate you How can I love my one true God When I can’t even hold my tongue Urge to be angry I deny the good inside me Urge to be angry grows I know This is not worth it I’m so out of control I need your healing and forgiveness Teach me to love You my God Teach me to hold my tongue Urge to be angry I deny the good inside me Urge to be angry grows I know This is not worth it Back
Visions You are the pin That falls in this silence You prick my skin So I can feel it I smash my head Into your words They penetrate Through this membrane I can’t eat Or breathe easy I can’t sleep Find comfort in nothing These visions I see Are what eat at me It’s you stripped from everything And I’m left screaming I can’t see your face Or feel you breathe I have no peace But I still believe I still believe It’s not what It seems I still believe Back
When he Called Your Name October tells the tale Of broken hearts, of broken faith A sorry tale That reminds us we all fail November nails All our feelings to the floor That we unveiled When we set our tongues on fire You hid behind Your false naivety alone You didn’t know Who or what was going on You held my heart In your drunken hands And you gave it to him Couldn’t even tell the difference When he called your name He was far from innocent And when you gave in He was taking advantage We do not do All the things we want to do But we do Things that we don’t want to do And when we do Well, we don’t know what to do I can’t blame you I’m in the same boat too But when he called your name He was far from innocent And when you gave in He was taking advantage The tears in my eyes Say that I still love you And the feeling in my heart Says that I still love you With every triggered thought of him Is the temptation to relive With every prayer spilled from my lips I find the power to forgive Back
Wish For Never Come to me Sweet princess You’ve kissed my lips And breathed my breath Always been the simple things That have meant the most to me We can complete our own fairy tale So much in love with so much left to lose Summer, where are you? Sunshine, canoes I read a book to you Then we rode for a long time Through fields and cemetery lawns The old church was our playground I wish you were the only one I wish that we had got along I wish that there had been no other Precious was my love for you Dead rose, swinging to and fro Oak tree, we kissed on roots that ran so deep I wrote a song for you Would you tell me what that means now? I’m sure that I deserve this I’m willing to accept my fate I wish you were the only one I wish that we had got along I wish that there had been no other Precious was my love for you Come to me Sweet princess Kiss my lips Suck my breath Hated this Hated this Hated this I wish we’d never been as one I wish I didn’t write this song I wish that you and I were never Twisted was our love and cruel Our love was so cruel True love is not cruel True love is not cruel Back
