Yeah Rise We're gonna need another witness just like you Surprise Your inadmissible testimony might be true You better pull the hood (Get it off, get it off) You'll be lucky to tear the place down Then you're gone for good (Set it off, set it off) Scorched earth is your favorite sacred ground Turn away if you know you wanna stay But you're never gonna like what's left of me When the carcass is down and the predator's around You're gonna play dead if you wanna run free You're such a tortured soul But I don't wanna hear about it You say you're not involved But all you do is talk about it Go bless this shit where you belong For your own information For your own entertainment This hell comes to you live And if you need some assistance A little time to convince it Dial in your sordid hive mind Crawl across the broken glass of every window you're pressed against And scrawl, your little bits of hate Your little digital graffiti breaks So don't close your eyes (Get it off, get it off) When you're pulling your messages down You wanna go to sleep? (Set it off, set it off) You'll be lucky if they take you without making a sound What a guy, God, I hope you fucking die And your sympathies don't mean shit to me When the competence goes and the predator knows You better be dead if you wanna be free You're such a tortured soul But I don't wanna hear about it You say you're not involved But all you do is talk about it One more thing And don't forget to burn For your own information For your own entertainment This hell comes to you live And if you need some assistance A little time to convince it Dial in this sordid Protect the hive mind Hold on, there's a river around you Swim hard for the other side Don't drown to spite your critics Just blow a kiss goodbye Hold on, there's a river around you Swim hard for the other side Don't drown to spite your critics Just blow a kiss goodbye Yeah Protect the hive Yeah Protect the—

Yeah What happens in the dark feels the way the blackout never does Turning the gears, sharpen the blades of sheer terror, these fevered ones But tell me the secret things, show me the bloody kings Let's play a game where the winners always lose their heads Time screams by, life is mine Time screams by, life is… Yeah Your condition is a symptom We'll have to give you medicine for the dead Drink me Your condition is a symptom We'll have to give you medicine for the dead Drink me Before it could begin, the shooting stopped, the silence always comes Now where do we go? Because you're walking the streets, it's no better (There's something wrong) Pull at your privacy, a product of lunacy Don't be surprised when the losers want to win... but then again Time screams by, life is mine Time screams by, life is… Yeah Your condition is a symptom We'll have to give you medicine for the dead Drink me Your condition is a symptom We'll have to give you medicine for the dead Yeah Where does it end and tell me where does it go? If evil exists, then only evil can know When do we run and are they letting us in? Where does it end and tell me where to begin Your condition is a symptom We'll have to give you medicine for the dead Drink me Your condition is a symptom We'll have to give you medicine for the dead (Medicine for the dead) Your condition is a symptom We'll have to give you medicine for the dead Drink me Your condition is a symptom We'll have to give you medicine for the dead You have to drink me (You know you're Dying slowly, dying slowly Dying, dying, right? Know that you're dying slowly Dying slowly Dying, dying right now)

When the beating hearts make the beating start It means they found you out Nothing hurts you more until you can't ignore It's something to cry about Now, before you know it, the scars begin to show it No place where you feel safe So much for getting better, it's just a matter Of when to run away A moment never lasts that long A moment never lasts so long right now No matter how the past has gone You'll always have the past along, for a lifetime now But you can't run to ground Oh, you can't run to ground When the hurting stops and the voices drop It means the guilt kicks in They say they didn't mean it They say they're gonna fix it When they yell, it means they care (Aren't you getting it?) Staring daggers, pressing kisses, hiding bruises When exactly does this feel like love? Now the question begs When you're the one who hates What in the hell are you passing on? A moment never lasts that long A moment never lasts so long right now No matter how the past has gone You'll always have the past along To last a lifetime now But you can't run to ground Oh, you can't run to ground A moment never lasts that long A moment never lasts so long right now No matter how the past has gone You'll always have to pass a lifetime now A moment never lasts that long A moment never lasts so long right now No matter how the past has gone You’ll always have the past along to last a lifetime now
