Force of Habit

You know that you never gave me a chance to prove myself And I never thought that my life was worth your wealth You never said to me anything encouraging that I could see It's difficult to cure the pain that I've had to endure I always tried to listen even when I disagreed with you Selfish disposition makes it hard for me to respect anything you do Then you tried to push me, but you weren't strong enough to get the job done Then you tried to hit me, but the back of your hand just isn't quick enough You are a thorn in my side, all my life you never left me alone Thorn in my side, in your mind you wish I never were born Thorn in my side, through it all I think you pushed me to fail Thorn in my side, it's about time that you're recognized for your lies and your worthless alibis It's been a long time waiting for the judgment day So I can cast away The thorn that you stuck so deep inside of me It's ancient history You're always acting like a king of kings Like you were a god You wear a crown of thorns like a hat on your head My firing squad will put an end to your facade Like a thorn in my side

Why do people sell their souls away Just to ride the horse another day They're all slaves to the heroin But it's a war that they'll never win They'll never live to see the error of their ways [Chorus]: One foot in the grave Ruled by the drugs that they crave It all began as a need for kicks Now they'd sell their lives for a fix Powerless to break those chains There's only losses and there's never no gains They only live and die as a slave With one foot, one foot in the grave It promised an escape but only lied Master of the world they're trapped inside The needle and the spoon only gave A one - way ticket leading to the grave And suffering until the day they die [Chorus] One foot in the grave Ruled by the drugs that they crave It all began as a need for kicks Now they'd sell their lives for a fix Powerless to break those chains There's only losses and there's never no gains They only live and die as a slave With one foot, one foot in the grave

He was just a poor boy livin' down by the railroad tracks His father worked so hard to provide that he died of a cardiac He made himself a promise to leave the poverty behind Now climbing up the corporate ladder is all that matters in his grand design [Chorus]: You can forget about friends in your climb before your fall The climb before the fall Alone at the top you feel the pressure pulling you And you try in your mind to repent your sins in your climb before your fall The climb before the fall Change your ways or you will pay in your dying days In the end, in the end, in the end Sunrise now and he has to get to work, he's gotta tell someone what to do Lives his life thinkin' how to get ahead, kickin' of his corporate shoes Throws his credit cards in everyone's face, name droppin' 'cause he thinks it's cool Doesn't realize he doesn't know how to act, he's just lookin' like a complete fool [Chorus] You can forget about friends in your climb before your fall The climb before the fall Alone at the top you feel the pressure pulling you And you try in your mind to repent your sins in your climb before your fall The climb before the fall Change your ways or you will pay in your dying days In the end, in the end, in the end He left everyone he loved alone out in the cold His mother was standing in the welfare line while he was up to his neck in gold Now he's become a millionaire and he's sitting right at the top But he found that the higher up the mountain means the longer that you're gonna drop [Chorus]: You can forget about friends in your climb before your fall The climb before the fall Alone at the top you feel the pressure pulling you And you try in your mind to repent your sins in your climb before your fall The climb before the fall Change your ways or you will pay in your dying days In the end, in the end, in the end

Let me paint you a portrait of a man whose very name would define in times to come all things profane Born unto privilege child of aristocracy, so tender the young mind, yet so unclean His was a heart of darkness that beat within his chest Breasting life into the crimes he'd manifest Imp of the perverse on a bloody path he trods Scribe of the unthinkable the Marquis de Sade Outraging the laws of both nature and religion Subjugation in behalf of her domain Or so he believed with all his hate and narcissism That to fight the incubation's but in vain Nature inspires our tastes bizarre She paints them only as they are From the darkest corners of the mind as real as the morning sun shall rise, just the same [Chorus]: He wove his written word with threads of flesh throughout He promised things so frightening they'll turn you inside out When terror's grip has set your soul is set aflame Behold the architect of pain Unearthing fantasies too savage to reveal Twisting your world with visions centuries concealed Was he philosopher or was he just insane? Behold the architect of pain Each tale black as pitch dressed in the colors of hell Your dreams will fill with the sounding of the knell Feel the looming shadow of the hungry guillotine And you'll be blinded by the blade's fatal gleam Outraging the laws of both nature and religion Subjugation in behalf of her domain Or so he believed with all his hate and narcissism That to fight the inclination's but in vain Nature inspires our tastes bizarre She paints them only as they are From the darkest corners of the mind as real as the morning sun shall rise, just the same [Chorus]: He wove his written word with threads of flesh throughout He promised things so frightening they'll turn you inside out When terror's grip has set your soul is set aflame Behold the architect of pain Unearthing fantasies too savage to reveal Twisting your world with visions centuries concealed Was he philosopher or was he just insane? Behold the architect of pain Nature cannot bind you, you only need to serve unto her Harming without stint or cease at the expense of whosoever may be Their pain becomes your paradise, your lust their demise Forced you to recognize The beast within, he helped you visualize No desire to torment flesh and bone The mind can cause far greater destruction alone When the seed has taken root It grows impure, your thoughts pollute All things please nature, she has need of our misdeeds We serve her as we sin The bloodier our opus The greater her domain and her esteem for us (Outraging the laws of both nature and religion Subjugation in behalf of her domain Or so he believed with all his hate and narcissism That to fight the inclination's but in vain) Nature inspires our tastes bizarre She paints them only as they are From the darkest corners of the mind as real as the morning sun shall rise, just the same

Got out of bed about 3 PM thought it was a holiday Then my boss called just to tell me I'm late and he's giving my job away Well I took me a walk to the liquor store so I could drink away my blues Spent my last ten bucks, then I dropped the bottle and I broke it all over my shoes So I got home to find the power's shut off, there was someone knocking at my door It was my landlord serving an eviction notice 'cause my checks are bouncing off the floor I pounded my head up against the wall thinking what else could go wrong But this was only the beginning to a real bad day, it wasn't gonna be a lot of fun [Sub-Chorus] I knew I should have never gotten out of bed 'Cause of the rain cloud above my head I'm down on my luck and it's plain to see So tell me why does this happen to me? [Chorus]: When it rains it pours, when it rains it pours on me When it rains it pours, and there's a storm front moving in on me When it rains it pours, raining down on only me When it rains it pours, when it rains it pours I drove across town to go see a friend when I heard a siren on my tail It turned out I had a warrant for my arrest and I couldn't even post the bail So I'm sittin' in a cell for 48 hours keepin' company with thieves and drunks I'm free to go but my car's impounded and I'm thinkin' 'bout becoming a monk So I'm wandering aorund in a catatonic daze now barely a shell of a man I look like I live out of a shopping cart and I'm picking up aluminum cans I staggered my way to an overpass and fell to the dirt asleep I figured out tomorrow is a new day and maybe I could buy myself a life real cheap [Sub-Chorus] I knew I should have never gotten out of bed 'Cause of the rain cloud above my head I'm down on my luck and it's plain to see So tell me why does this happen to me? [Chorus]: When it rains it pours, when it rains it pours on me When it rains it pours, and there's a storm front moving in on me When it rains it pours, raining down on only me When it rains it pours, when it rains it pours

Woke up this morning and he, he took a look at the sky The sun was hot and glowing decided today is a good day to die He wasn't sure just how, no he didn't know, but he knew the reasons why No one saw this coming because he kept it all inside Out of control like a runaway train desperate to end all his pain You've got to understand there's a better plan if you can open your eyes [Chorus]: You told yourself on your road to ruin Today is a good day, a good day to die Life to you is such a heavy burden Today is a good day, a good day to die So that's what you wanna do? Take the easy way out Suicide's only for cowards, is that what you're all about Are you afraid of the world around you, are you afraid of what might be? Think of the ones who love you all the things you'll never see Out of control like a runaway train desperate to end all his pain You've got to understand there's a better plan if you can open your eyes [Chorus]: You told yourself on your road to ruin Today is a good day, a good day to die Life to you is such a heavy burden Today is a good day to die Friends all around, yet you feel so alone Today is a good day, a good day to die Carry on and you'll find the peace you've never known Today is a good day, a good day to try
