It's wearing on my mind, I'm speaking all my doubts aloud You rob a dead mans grave, Then flaunt it like you did create If I hit bottom and everythings gone In the great Mississippi, please drown me and run It's digging time again, You're nurturing the weakest trend Those with the heart and the brain to get past this Can spot a pathetic without even asking Fuck your magazine, And fuck the long dead plastic scene Pierce a new hole, If Hell was "in" you'd give your soul The great southern trendkill That's right, The great southern trendkill Buy it at a store, From MTV to on the floor You look just like a star, It's proof you don't know who you are If I hit bottom and everythings gone In the great Mississippi, please drown me and run It's bullshit time again, You'll save the world within your trend Those with the heart and the brain to get past this Can spot a pathetic without even asking Politically relieved, You're product sold and well received The right words spoken gold, If I was God you'd sell your soul to... The great southern trendkill That's right, The great southern trendkill

A smack on the wrists is the words from the mouth Of the outsiders, lawyers, police A small price to pay for the dope and the guns And the rape, it should all be O.K. Your father is rich, he's the judge, he's the man, He's the God that got your sentence reduced But in the back of his mind, he well knows what He'd find if he looked a little deeper in you - in you Drag the waters some more Like never before Sweet is the slice and the lips - you're gonna have that woman - She is your favorite lay Promised you (swore) that no one had been there, And she was going to keep it that way Let it move in, you got thin, and got high, and Your money went and so did your friends But she's by your side, and her smile cannot hide The premonition of the beckoning end - the end Drag the waters some more Like never before In with it, out with it

My skin is cold, Transfusion with somebody Morose and old, Drop into fruitless dying It was tempting and bared, The whoring angel rising Now burning prayers, My silent time of losing My foes - they can't destroy my body Colliding slow, like life itself Long for the blur, We cannot dry much longer Cement to dirt, Disgusted with my cheapness My foes - they can't destroy my body Colliding slow, like life itself Reaching down, staring up (at the forgiver)

I cannot take the take, your condition was nod awake A selfish cryer, boldface liar, robbing all of what you could take in Stabbed towards a death, a dirty smelling girl Shit decisions, no provisions, filling veins with juice of chaos Painted face, olive drab, swollen hole, empty bag, sunken eyes, whining dog, it's times like this you should pray for never I broke your fucking mold then threw away the cast, new religion and new provisions, it's amazing you're alive Drop the needle and stop what you're changing into Erase the end dissolving, disgrace is needed more So I mended severed ties, through flesh we cauterized the undeserving, sliming, writhing, I filled you up with watered promise Spitting teeth, oral lust, alley fuck, angel dust, anal whore, bleeding knees, it's times like this to pray for murder So now I've seen it all, Hells' wrath, no man has greater glory, cause now you're living through me So I'm done with saving you, a gift unto myself, a tired savior, a wasted favor, and I'm lucky I'm alive I broke your fucking mold then threw away the cast

A dead issue, don't wrestle with it, deaf ears are sleeping A guilty bliss, so inviting (let me in), nailed to the cross I feel you, relate to you, accuse you Wash away us all, take us with the floods Then throughout the night, they were raped and executed Cold hearted world Your language unheard of, the vast sound of tuning out The rash of negativity is seen one sid edly, burn away the day The nervous, the drifting, the heaving Wash away us all, take us with the floods Then throughout the day mankind played with grenades Cold hearted world And at night they might bait the pentagram Extinguishing the sun Wash away man, take him with the floods

Put in position to wage teenage mayhem A common affair for the ones who are juiced If it is weakness that grants us the power We thrive on what's stronger than most of the world Glass breaks The dimming lights Sweat, heat and profane debate The smart ones stay on the outside While drunken heads and arms erupt Centered man swings a punch, Spits a tooth, postures odd A punk rock escapade Five bucks a head to be king dick in the crowd We are the ones who must sport the position Cheap beer Trendy clicks Lesbian love is accepted and right Shaved heads meet hair in the mix Blending the 80's and 90's with hate Put in position to wage teenage mayhem A common affair for the ones who are juiced If it is weakness that grants us the power We thrive on what's stronger than most of the world Shows on Dates canceled Kicked out for reasons that seem so unfair Skin crusts against the cops A foregone conclusion that's tired and beat Ringworm, crabs and lice V.D. ecstasy, speed and horse A heaven of unmatched importance An honor of sex to be stuck by the punk Rich homes with money and food Abandoned for the bums on the street A lifestyle that's unexplainable Don't try and save what is all meant to be Put in position to wage teenage mayhem A common affair for the ones who are juiced If it is weakness that grants us the power We thrive on what's stronger than most of the world If it is free From (a) family that's seen You can just keep it If you must beg It's better instead You must follow the etiquette You know when it rains you're in your bed at home You act so real when you are alone You better not let the mohawked crowd see Give it five years, you'll retire your piercings You must admit that you mimic the weaklings

Cheap cocaine, a dry inhale The pills that kill and take the pain away Diet of life, shelter without The face that cannot see inside yours and mine When I'm hiding, when I need it, It lets me breathe, For our handle on this life, I don't believe this time Would you look at me now? Can you tell I'm a man? With these scars on my wrists To prove I'll try again Try to die again, try to live through this night Try to die again... Forever fooling, free and using, Sliding down the slide that breaks a will Mothers angel, getting smarter, How smart are you to regress unfulfilled? It's a damn shame, but who's to blame?

Out of my mind, gun up to the mouth No pretension, execution, live and learn , rape and turn Fret not family, nor pre-judged army This is for me, and me only, cowards only Try it Don't you try to die, like me It's livid and it's lies and makes graves Graves descending down It's not worth the time to try, to replenish a rotting life I'll end the problem, facing nothing, fuck you off, fuck you all Tortured history, addict of misery, this exposes me for weakness is a magnet - watch me do it Why would you help anyone who doesn't want it, doesn't need it, doesn't want your shit advice when a mind's made up to go ahead and die? What's done is done and gone, so why cry?

Can't you see I'm easily bothered by persistence One step from lashing out at you... You want in to get under my skin And call yourself a friend I've got more friends like you What do I do? (Pre) Is there no standard anymore? What it takes, who I am, where I've been Belong You can't be something you're not Be yourself, by yourself Stay away from me A lesson learned in life Known from the dawn of time (Chorus) Respect, walk Run your mouth when I'm not around It's easy to achieve You cry to weak friends that sympathize Can you hear the violins playing you song? Those same friends tell me your every word (Pre) (Chorus) Are you talking to me? No way punk

Whores Your windows boarded up, Your private lives exposed The talk shows pump it up, Lab rats diseased for show We're doomed to use the slang, Outbreak of drug roulette A church burned to the ground, Not even noticed yet 13 Steps (To Nowhere) Whores A backwards swastika, The black skin riddled in lead A Nazi Gangster Jew, It beats a dog that's dead It's in to use the slang, Outbreak of gun roulette The cross slants to the side, Will prove the damnedest yet 13 Steps - Leads to nowhere The backlash dislocates, An untimely reign of death The wolf poked with the stick, Awaits with cancerous breath (Leads to nowhere) Outsiders still suppose, There's Holy streets to roam The truth should not surprise, Your homes were built on lies 13 Steps

Revenge I'm screaming revenge again Wrong I've been wrong for far too long Been constantly so frustrated I've moved mountains with less When I channel my hate to productive I don't find it hard to impress Bones in traction Hands break to hone raw energy Bold and disastrous My ears can't hear what you say to me Hold your mouth for the war Use it for what it's for Speak the truth about me Determined Possessed I feel a conquering will down inside me Strength The strength of many to crush who might stop me My strength is in number and my soul lies in every one The releasing of anger can better any medicine under the sun Bones in traction Hands break to hone raw energy Bold and disastrous My ears can't hear what you say to me Hold your mouth for the war Use it for what it's for Speak the truth about me Determined There comes a time within everyone to close your eyes to what's real No comprehension to fail I vacuum the wind for my sail Can't be the rest Let others waste my time Owning success is the bottom line. Like a knife into flesh After life is to death Pulling and punching the rest of duration NO ONE can piss on this determination

A long time ago I never knew myself. Then the memory Of shame birthed its gift. No more. The small one, the weak one, the frightened one. Running from beatings, deflating. I'm becoming more Than a man. More than you ever were. Driven and burning To rise beyond Jesus. I'm born again with snakes eyes Becoming Godsize I found my life was slipping through my hands. Perhaps Through death my life won't be so bad. I can see you, can fuck you, inside of you. Staring through Your eyes. Belittle your friends to serve me, to suck me, To realize my saving grasp. I of suicide. I the unlord. I'm born again with snakes eyes Becoming Godsize

I see you had your mind all made up you group of Pitiful liars. Before I woke to face the day, your master Plan transpired. -Something told me- this job had more to Meet the eye. My song is not believed? My words some- What deceiving? Now I'm unwhole. You've waged a war of nerves But you can't crush the kingdom Can't be what your idols are. Can't leave the scar. You cry for compensation. I ask you please just give us... 5 minutes alone I read your eyes, your mind was made up. You took me for A fool. You used complexion of my skin for a counter Rascist tool. -You can't burn me- I've spilled my guts out In the past. Taken advantage of because you know where I've come. My past. You've waged a war of nerves But you can't crush the kingdom Can't be what your idols are. Can't leave the scar. You cry for compensation. I ask you please just give us... 5 minutes alone

Almost every day I see the same face On broken picture tube It fits the attitude If you could see yourself You put you on a shelf Your verbal masturbate Promise to nauseate Today I'll play the part of non-parent Not make a hundred rules For you to know about yourself Not lie and make you believe What's evil is making love and making friends and meeting God you're own way The right way (Chorus) To see To bleed Cannot be taught In turn You're making us Fucking hostile We stand alone The truth in right and wrong The boundaries of the law You seem to miss the point Arresting for a joint? You seem to wonder why Hundreds of people die You're writing tickets man My mom got jumped -- they ran! Now I'll play a public servant To serve and protect By the law and the state I'd bust the punks That rape steal and murder And leave you be If you crossed me I'd shake your hand like a man Not a god (Chorus) Come meet your maker, boy Some things you can't enjoy Because of heaven/hell A fucking wives' tale They put it in your head Then put you in your bed He's watching say your prayers Cause God is everywhere Now I'll play a man learning priesthood Who's about to take the ultimate test in life I'd question things because I am human And call NO ONE my father who's no closer that a stranger I won't listen (Chorus)

If ever words were spoken Painful and untrue I said I loved but I lied In my life All I wanted Was the keeping Of someone like you As it turns out Deeper within me Love was twisted and pointed at you Never ending pain, quickly ending life (Chorus) You keep this love, thing, child, toy You keep this love, fist, scar, break You keep this love I'd been the tempting one Stole her from herself This gift in pain Her pain was life And sometimes I feel so sorry I regret this the hurting of you But you make me so unhappy I'd take my life and leave love with you I'd kill myself for you, I'd kill you for myself (Chorus) No more head trips

There's a double standard for the way we live If there's nothing to have, well then there's nothing to save I'll break a sweat and I don't regret What you'd kill to see brings out the god in me. Come and be with me Live my twisted dream Pro devoted sledge Time for primal concrete sledge The man of a thousand retirements Will always be the one to tell you when to quit I won't take stock in a withered man I'm reaching into you, I'll make you understand Come and be with me Live my twisted dream Pro devoted sledge Time for primal concrete sledge

We sail through endless skies stars shine like eyes the black night sighs The moon in silver trees falls down in tears light of the night The earth, a purple blaze of sapphire haze in orbit always While down below the trees bathed in cool breeze silver starlight breaks down the night And so we pass on by the crimson eye of great god Mars as we travel the universe

REX STINKS LIKE A MOTHERFUCKER Agony is the price That you'll pay in the end Domination consumes you Then calls you a friend It's a twisted fall Binds are like steel And manipulates the will to be And it's hard to see How soon we forget When there's nothing else Left to destroy It's a useless ploy Your eyes will see The dawn of the day And the writing on the wall Those words that stare Into your soul And to yourself you will befall It's domination pushed into living hell Domination A now blacked heart Is reaching out in divinity Body suspended by chains over razors and nails it's a penalty Each razor a vice and each nail Marks demise of you life. Grim construction grows Has life played a trick Sealed you in brick by brick Till your end forcing you to bend Your eyes will see The dawn of the day And the writing On the wall Those words that stare Into your soul And to yourself You will befall It's domination pushed into living hell Domination
