Overkill
Album • 1993
Worlds apart, separation from my mind Just close my eyes to bring me there I fall apart; the pieces are so hard to find A puzzle piece is torn in half The absence, of color surrounds a broken dream Call my eyes to take me there One by one I watch, as the pieces disappear My friends become the ones I hate This house of cards, it won't withstand the wind I shut my eyes to escape All my whites have turned to black Every time I close my eyes - dream in Columbian All my bugs are comin' back Crawlin' on my face, they speak in! Columbian Worlds apart, a separation from my soul Worlds apart, the separation is now whole... I watch the pieces fall apart I try to make a brand new start I'm fallin' in, I'm fallin' out I'm fallin' up, I'm fallin' back I'm fallin' down and fallin' round and askin' why? All my whites have turned to black Every time I close my eyes - dream in Columbian All my bugs are comin' back Crawlin' on my face, they speak in! Columbian
Bad or a wet dream, feelin' so in between Gun in my pocket an' a target on my head Right on the wrong road; he talks to me through dogs Not sure who it is but I know it ain't God Feel like they're watchin' me, know that they're watchin' me C'mon, let's go got two tickets to the moon Now what are you supposed to do when they got their hooks in you Do you believe me? I was there And did ya hear it!? Yeah! Not my fault, wasn't even there; rest of the world, all gone insane Can ya hear the dogs barkin', can ya hear the dogs speak? Seen it on the TV, something gonna break Now how am I supposed to breathe when there is no air? And how am I supposed to be when those hooks are pullin' me... down? If you release me, won't be there If you leave me I won't care! I hear black, it has no mercy! "I hear black, it has no mercy!" repeating in my head... From the inside out talk to me, in tongues The worst of this I understand, that the flies are breeding The wounds are bleeding; there'll be no healing in my house From the inside out... you know I'm not the same! If you release me, won't be there If you leave me I won't care! I hear black, it has no mercy! "I hear black, it has no mercy!" repeating in my head...

Aggravation fuelin' me Money powered hypocrisy I have no feelings, you're much the same We have no feelings, we feel no pain! I am numb to all I see This the way it has to be Gone is hope, gone is need I know: stone don't bleed What's it worth if I die? What's the reason they all cry? I have no feelings, too much the same Not my problem, I feel no blame We are blind and we are cold We're afraid of growing old We are numb to all we see... nothing sacred Backs turned to madness Backs to misery and I put the Brush to the canvas.!. An' paint a world! Paint my world of hurt! We are blind and we are cold Still afraid of growing old We are numb to all we see... nothing sacred Backs turned to madness Backs to misery and I put the Brush to the canvas.!. An' paint a world! Paint my world of hurt.!.

Talk is cheep, I can't afford the price of wasted time Who will reap the profit of the lie? Fantasy, illusion, fusion, impressions of a high Sacred is the being of the lie Drawn is a picture of myself It's all that I see leaving! Gone are the cries I heard for help The mirror spits reflections of a lie Are you waiting for a chance? Won't happen standing in the rain Damage done, the truth is drowning in a sea of hate Wet, they wear the fiction like a badge over their hearts Drawn is a picture of myself It's all that I feel bleeding! Gone are the cries I made for help The mirror spits reflections of a lie Feed my head! I'm hungry for a lie Be sure and teach your children well to use it pure and slow Be sure they teach their children, be sure the children's children Slight of hand, slight of word, slight to believe the absurd Feed my head, I'm hungry, I'm hungry for a lie Drawn is a picture of myself It's all that I see grieving! Gone are the cries I made for help The mirror spits reflections of a lie...

I watch the smoke drift from my cigarette I hear the roaches cross the floor Slam dance around me, in my chair I sit The gray's leakin' through the door There's a shade of gray I've never seen before My gaze fixed on the space beneath the door My life flash before my eyes All this sweat grew from one solitary drop Grey's movin' cross the floor We walk alone, no one beside us! It's never as simple as black or white We should have known, no one would find us! That we would all wind up in shades of gray... "It seems like every time I get a chance is quite naked and as I turn around, as I turn around and inside there's no doubt it's gonna happen again" Nobody listenin' so I talk to myself Sometimes I pay me no mind I lost this argument so very long ago The right words were so hard to find I can't breathe in the grey! An' I can't find the key to the door We walk alone, no one beside us! It's never as simple as black or white We should have known, no one would find us! That we would all wind up in shades of gray...

Bless me with that special pain that makes a man feel right as rain My soul-a-fire, feelin' so alive in your own way If you need a reason to get some healin' If your spirit's bleedin' then get some healin'! I need a new religion.!. Laughin' like a true believer, laughin' hard the true deceiver Without a worry in this world no friend of time If you need a reason to get some healin' If your spirit's bleedin' then get some healin'! Do we get higher? Ha ha ha, higher Are we all higher in a spiritual void? One for neglecting me and two on the way to three No, I never felt so low, I never felt so low as in this void! Bless us all with what we need! Self indulgent constant greed What's mine is mine, is mine; you get your own, leave me alone If you need a reason to get some healin' If your spirit's bleedin' then get some healin'! Do we get higher? Ha ha ha, higher Are we all higher in a spiritual void.?.

This track is instrumental.
You feel the weight of the world and your back's are not that strong! Can you carry a tune or is the weighting forever so long?! Do ya freeze in the heat? Wear sunglasses at night? And are you beating my meat to the sound of the same old drum!? It's time to shed your skin and with it promises And we bite down hard and feel... the weight of the world Yeah, there's a song in them words, though they leak through your teeth! You're shakin' hands with the right while your cutting my throat with the left Yeah, it's the weight of the world when ya lay down with dogs! After humpin' your leg they just leave you with flees and just split! It's time to shed your skin and with it promises And we bite down hard and feel- The more I know, the less I understand Try not to think out loud The more I know, more I know, more I know More I feel... the weight of the world! It's the weight of the world when ya lay down with dogs! All the names have been changed but the story is always the same! It's time to shed your skin and with it promises And we bite down hard and feel- The more I know, the less I understand Try not to think out loud The more I know, more I know, more I know More I feel... the weight of the world!

I ain't lookin' for a reason I ain't searchin' for my soul I'm findin' all the answers It's the questions I don't know Seen it from the outside! Outside lookin' in What's it like to be inside? Will I ever stop payin' for my sins? Will I see the light of day? When will all these dues be paid? Send on down a sign to me Or am I too blind too see? Ignorance and innocence go hand in hand Ignorance and innocence! Am I guilty man? Yes, I am Takin' rides on a one way street to nowhere I'm lookin' for a sign I understand Passin' time to save my mind Following that road that winds In and out of my own towns of hell Standin' up or layin' down My head goes spinnin' round and round again My head goes spinnin' round and round again My head is spinning, head is spinning.!. Ignorance and innocence go hand in hand Ignorance and innocence! Am I guilty man.?.

Wake up, baby, daddy's comin' to crack your skull in two Hit you like a hammer, baby, down to play a fool No to the kicking! No more to say! No having just one meaning! Nothing left to say; no way, no! Surface the anger through immortality Never be undying, ~undying~, undying Wake up break down, daddy's comin'; all you heard is true So bite your lip and shut your mouth, it's no longer up to you No to the licking! No more to say! No leavin' you alone Nothing more to say; no way, no! Surface the anger; immortality Should you be undying, ~undying~, undying? No forgiveness! No more to say! No way, no! Surface the anger; immortality You never were undying, ~undying~, undying, ~undying~ Undying, you never be undying, you never were undying You never seem undying; how can you be undying.?.

It's just like you to talk when I'm not around It's just like you to kick me when I'm down Symptoms of your lunacy: tryin' to be what you can't be I don't want to end up just like you I can't hear you! I can't see you! I won't hear you! Just like you It's just like you to think you're playin' god It's just like me to know you're not Weakening with every day, turn down the sound and fade away No, I'll never end up just like you! I don't need you! I can read you! Never need you! You can't see me! You can't bleed me! Cold and empty! Just like you There lies a fallen man, fallen by his own hand Once the way it used to be: believed in you, but now I'm free! I believed in you, but now I'm free! Now I'm free! It's just like you... I don't need you! I can read you! Never need you! You can't see me! You can't read me! I set me free! Just like you...
