How was I to know that she was taken I'd had her so many times before She was on my mind and she was on the floor She ain't no girl next door She never said a word about you Her tongue was too busy working overtime She never stopped me as I made her mine I didn't mean to do it, but I'd do it again Do it in a heartbeat, Oh it's a sin It's burnin' you up, but still I call you a friend, But I didn't mean to do it (I didn't mean to do it) I didn't mean to do it, but I'd do it again Over and over and over again It's burning you up, but still I call you a friend I didn't mean to do it, but I'd do it again You've seen the way she looks, how could I say know If I told her "stop", all she heard was "go, go, go!" Climbing on my head and screaming out for more

Been dead and buried, six feet underground Been nearly 20 years since I’ve made a sound Been waiting for a sign Now I think it’s time to raise the dead It’s my resurrection Long forgotten rhymes, long forgotten times So far gone I may as well be deaf, dumb and blind You never heard a word I said Now I think it’s time to raise the dead Raise the dead It’s my resurrection raise the dead Hit me, hurt me, beat me, bruise me Tie me up and use me gag my thoat so I won’t make a sound Throw me on the ground and break me Nail me to your tree and take me Nothing you can do will hold me down What kind of world was left behind? That paradise is only in my mind, now What kind of world have we become? All things we did have come undone What kind of world was underground? So far below, it can't be found What kind of world is in the sky? Was it only a lie? What kind of world has been and gone? What kind of world have we become? What kind of world is yet to come?

Can you see the colors landing? - landing on the wall Will you catch me, brother, If I start to fall? Eyes are red, party, braindead, see the lights come flashing Ceiling's breathing - thinking nonstop Keystone's cold, the Mescal's flowing through my veins "7's the magic number" as she sought out the reigns Wild horses always pull me down Twist my arm and slam another round Take me to a place where your mind runs free Silly me, laughin' in the face of tragedy You wanna be livin' in the lap of luxury You gotta be talkin' 'bout High Society I've tried, he's tried, you've tried and tried But you just can't see it She ain't all that, but she's fun for the night Better do it 'till you get it right

Tried the best I can to take on all the sins of man Felt your lash across my back your iron in my hand 'Though I've screamed a thousand times, I've never made a sound And through it all tried not to fall, cause it's a long way down Tried to walk the narrow path and fight the holy fight But every time it seems I end up worshipping the night It seems I've tried a hundred years to turn my life around And through it all tried not to fall, cause it's a long way down The highest angel in the sky can only fly so high When he lands upon the ground you clip is wings And try to hold him down The deepest demon down below will feast upon your soul In fading light the name of salvation is now a Name you'll never know It's a long way down It's a long way down It's a long way down It's a long way down

I don’t want you unaware - I don’t need you to be so scared I won’t waste away the coming days for you This simple phrase, in fact, is true As I sit and watch and wait reborn, and you You Cry No, me - Not I I won’t let you in The downward spin begins to sanctify You Cry I don’t want you unimpressed - I don’t need you, I confess I don’t see the scars that only run skin deep To me the voices are asleep But you feel the force of voices as they creep

I won’t accept the fact I fear, No matter how, year after year It’s too late to make the change; To separate my worlds so strange Can’t seem to get my head that straight, Less all the things that just can’t wait I let the sun shine on my face, But still I feel I’m out of place Black and White like day and night Two different worlds I try to fight They both thrive; my will is might They, too, alive. My mind, my sight. In my heart and in my soul And every part of me untold There’s something here alone with me In every right and wrong I see Just like a tragic comedy There’s something here alone with me And just as quickly as it came (it’s gone) And nothing; no one shares the blame There’s only me, and I alone My bootstraps and my grinding stone Highed up on possibilities Brought back down to reality Stumbling in ecstasy Changing the way that I breathe

I watched in horror as your towers fell I see you standing at the gates of hell Death is all around you, but you can't smell When you're locked in your shell Look around you, you can see a thousand signs Look around you, can't read between the lines You're living at the end of time Your priests can study what the good book says But who will light the candle at the end of days? Your kings are dying, and who will take their place? Who will take their place? This may be the last time that you hear from me This may be the last face that you'll ever see You could be all you'll ever be So make the most and soon you'll be forever free
