Second Life
03:18
|
|||
Prophecies, don't know what they mean
Cherishing, all the good things in my life
Desicrate the gods of days past broken
Destroy the gods that have never spoken
And if you stay here with me today
The skies will turn blue out of disgrace
And when the night fog begins to roll in
That's when my second life begins
From dusk til dawn I take this blood
Through burning flames and worldwide floods
You take the breath all out of me
Don't cut this life til you hear my plea
Lies, burried in your eyes
No sin within
Desicrate the gods of days past broken
Destroy the gods that have never spoken
And if you stay here with me today
The skies will turn blue out of disgrace
And when the night fog begins to roll in
That's when my second life begins
From dusk til dawn I take this blood
Through burning flames and worldwide floods
You take the breath all out of me
Clip my wings and set me free

Forever

Intro:
Forever
Forever
Chorus:
Can't live without you
There's just something about you
Can't breathe around you
The air is getting thin and I
Verse:
Don't know what to do
When I'm staring back at you
Want to caress you sweet lips
Though my body shaking
After all that we've been through
Can't get my thoughts off you
And after all that we have done
You are still the one
Chorus:
Can't live without you
There's just something about you
Can't breathe around you
The air is getting thin and I
Verse:
Never stopped to think about
How I never came around
Why do I try to hide our fate
I am filled with shame
After all that we've been through
Can't get my thoughts off you
And after all that we have done
You are still the one
Chorus:
Can't live without you
There's just something about you
Can't breathe around you
The air is getting thin
Break:
Forever
Forever
Chorus:
Can't live without you
There's just something about you
Can't breathe around you
The air is getting thin

Contradicted
03:13
|
|||
Intro:
Who am I to say you're wrong
As time goes by, we move along
Grow apart a little more each day
Yet refuse to go our separate ways
You'd think this kind of life would make us strong, forever on
And on you know, the more we hate, the more we grow
Humiliation finally takes hate's place, but just in case
Don't turn your back, this kind of thing, you can't erase
Verse:
You look for me, I'm long gone
Left long ago, no longer your pawn
Can't erase those words you said
Beat me up inside and then misled
Me to this place I saw once long ago, but just before
Destroyed my soul and then you went and closed that door
Chorus:
I'm On the outside looking in
With head held high, hard not to grin
No more shame, too much to bare
No more sorrow, no more despair
Verse:
Turn the corner, I'm not there
Where could I be, can you feel my stare
Can't get past those things you made me do
Tore me up inside, left me black and blue
Take me to a place I saw once long ago, but just before
Destroyed my soul and then you went and closed that door
Chorus:
I'm On the outside looking in
With head held high, hard not to grin
No more shame, too much to bare
No more sorrow, no more despair
I'm On the outside looking in
With head held high, hard not to grin
No more shame, too much to bare
No more sorrow, no more despair

Verse:
This is a song, about the morning after
Just don't know where, just don't know how
What could I have done
Last night was too fun
Just don't know how I, where's this place I'm waking up in
Chorus:
I sighed, I cried, woke up
Next to big hairy frickin sasquatch
Drank too much beer, how'd I end up here
Where's my shoes
Better yet, where's my fuckin pants
Verse 2:
Ok, so I only drank three, twelve packs
They went down so smooth
And came up, even smoother
The night was going great
Played beer pong way past eight
Lost track of how many, how many shots did I take
All the women loved me, guys just wanted to bug me
Beer was gone
Who the hell just grabbed my ass
I'm serious man, that shit's not cool
Oh sorry girl, it's ok for you to touch
Hold on, here's my solo, ahh
Solo:
You like that
Wait, check out what this button does
Cool huh, it's hard to find a woman with good taste these days
Hey hold on, where you goin, fuck it
Hey dude, dude, crack me open another weiser
Chorus:
I sighed, I cried, woke up
Next to big hairy frickin sasquatch
Drank too much beer, how'd I end up here
Where's my shoes
Better yet, where's my fuckin pants
Outro:
So I guess the moral of the story here folks
Don't get completely schvasted
You're only gonna regret it in the morning
See you next time around

Intro:
Close your eyes
Don't speak a word
And try not to think of her
Verse:
It's hard to see your face from a million miles away
The repeating echoes of your voice, causing me to go insane
Forgetting how to breathe, not knowing where to sleep
Every time I close my eyes your smile's staring back at me
Chorus:
Close your eyes, don't speak a word
And try not to think of her
You don't have a choice, it's a thing called fate
For backing out it's far too late
Pre Solo:
Can't seem to get you out my head
Thinking it's better off left dead, again
Verse:
Feels like the walls are closing in
Have to break the mould and then
Hopefully I'll have more, have more strength than I had once before
Sweaty palms, knees weak, can't breathe
Legs are frozen I can't leave
Waking up from this dream, gets a little harder every day
Chorus:
Close your eyes, don't speak a word
And try not to think of her
You don't have a choice, it's a thing called fate
Your chance is now don't procrastinate

Redemption
05:28
|
|||
Verse:
Half a million miles down an old dirt road
Nobody knows which way it goes
I can't remember back that far it's cold
Got a pocket of change and a long way home
Pre Chorus:
Which way do I go
To the left, or the right
It doesn't really matter where
It doesn't really matter why
Chorus:
Mother, can you hear me when I say
I get a little stronger every day
A little bit smarter in every way
And Father, can you make out these words today
I get a little rugged in every way
A little bit wiser every day
Verse 2:
Been travelin a long and broken path
Too tired to worry bout the aftermath
Don't understand, how to make these visions pass
With a mind full of doubt and a full tank of gas
Pre Chorus:
Which way do I go
To the left, or the right
It doesn't really matter where
It doesn't really matter why
Chorus:
Mother, can you hear me when I say
I get a little stronger every day
A little bit smarter in every way
And Father, can you make out these words today
I get a little rugged in every way
A little bit wiser every day

Unholy Union
03:06
|
|||
Pre Chorus:
This is only but a dream
Pulling hair and masquerading
Everything seems to be true
Just run into the brick wall
Forgetting words once said
Scratching til your skin bled
Hating memories of you
Bought a ticket so I could come
Chorus:
To your funeral
Leaving who you were
Verse:
Lost in the shadows of the past
From the front of the line to the last
Spending time on only, what is worth, the reprocussions of
Hating everything that is good
Delegating all that you should
With this unholy union of these two
The bastard son of innocence and ruin
Pre Chorus:
This is only but a dream
Pulling hair and masquerading
Everything seems to be true
Just run into the brick wall
Forgetting words once said
Scratching til your skin bled
Hating memories of you
Bought a ticket so I could come
Chorus:
To your funeral
Leaving who you were

Verse:
Back again, told you I'd be back
Recovered just a little since last time
So here's a few things I love

Beer, cuz I love the taste of
Brats, cuz I love the taste of
Sex, cuz I love the taste of
Yeah, love to fill my face with

Beer makes me happy through the night
And brats are just a food that I like

It's all I've known since day one birth
Now bend over and take this massive girth

As you can see, I have a narrow point of view
Of everything that is good and moral
If you don't like it, then you should
If you can't conform, then you can just fuck off

Beer, cuz I love the taste of
Brats, cuz I love the taste of
Sex, cuz I love the taste of

It's all I've known since day one birth
Now bend over and take this massive girth
Break:
Baby, you know you can tell when I've had too much
I'll be passed out on the floor, no shoes no pants no shirt
With an empty beer, and a half eaten brat
Verse 3:
I know I'm shallow
I know you know you're wrong
You know I know that you're a fag
I also know your sister knows my ways, very well

Beer, cuz I love the taste of
Brats, cuz I love the taste of
Sex, cuz I love the taste of

It's all I've known since day one birth
Now bend over and take this massive girth
Break 2:
Drink a beer, eat a brat, have drunk sex (x7)
(How many people have you followed)
(How many people have you fucked)
(How many people have you fondled)
(In the Walmart parking lot)
Chorus:
Beer makes me happy through the night
And brats are just a food that I like
Sex controls my whole damn life
This crap make my frickin world turn
You can hate me if you like

Now bend over and take this massive girth

To the End
02:55
|

Verse:
It's two in the mornin' as I stumble out this bar
Can't help but wonder, have I taken this too far
All alone I cry in the corner by myself
Waiting for death to come and put me on his shelf
Then I hear you say
Chorus:
Please believe me I don't want it this way
I'll do what I can to help you understand and
We'll do this together, push until the levee breaks
Live happy forever, do whatever it takes
Verse:
Woke up this mornin' with you inside my head
Can't help but remember all those hurtful things I said
All alone I lie in this bed without you here
Can't believe I've lost all I held dear
Then I hear you say
Chorus x2
