No need to tell you there's a world out there.
Broadcasted, its a big-ass scare,
But I know.
Yeah I know.
Taliban and Communist Regimes,
Are taking over, so they make it seem,
But I know.
Yeah I know.
Terrorism is our biggest threat,
Who gives a damn about a country's debt?
Well I don't.
And they don't.
I'm drowning out, so please don't hold me down,
'Cause I know. Yeah, I know.
I'm drowning out, so please don't hold me down,
'Cause I know. Yeah, I know.
The corporations got a free pass.
That Senate bailout can kiss my ass,
Well it won't.
No it won't.
Bernie Maddoff and his bitch of a wife,
Made off with a thousand lives,
Well they won't.
No they won't.
Wisconsin Unions have their rights as well.
To fair wages they can say farewell
Well they won't.
No I won't.
I'm drowning out, so please don't hold me down,
'Cause I know. Yeah, I know.
I'm drowning out, so please don't hold me down,
'Cause I know. Yeah, I know.
I'm drowning out, so please don't hold me down,
'Cause I know. Yeah, I know.
I'm drowning out, so please don't hold me down,
'Cause I know. Yeah, I know.

Death and Other Truths

Creeping closer to the edge, start to darken in my head.
Million horns stuck in my skull, tried to fight through a G-pull.
Seeing double in my mind starting to feel quite benign.
Seeing double in my eyes, its no surprise,
Seeing double's not so nice.
I don't doubt I've died inside (8x)
I don't doubt the world I'm living in,
has brought me down to the point where I can't breathe,
I don't doubt the world I'm living in has brought me down.
Enigmatic concubine, hope you brought his porcupine.
Impenetrable disguise, hides behind the other wife.
Doesn't doubt she's died inside, yet still remains dignified.
Won't reveal her cryptic side, hidden deep inside her mind
Esoteric bonafide life.
I don't doubt I've died inside (8x)
I don't doubt the world I'm living in,
has brought me down to the point where I can't breathe,
I don't doubt the world I'm living in has brought me down.
Tough decisions plague my life, those just make me feel alive.
A million voices in my head, help my thoughts feel like they're lead.
Seeing double all the time, feel like silencing the mind.
Seeing double in my eyes, yet another god-damn time,
Seeing double is still not fine.
I don't doubt I've died inside.

Breakdown

Its just another day, in this neighborhood of pain, unspoken conflict stain.
Others pray to god, I pray for that lot, to lose yourself in their thoughts.
There's bubbling down below, fire storms in tow, our sins are taking us home.
While others rise above, brought up on his glove, between both hate and love.
But its not enough, to know the world's tough.
And you know we're doomed, you can't just assume.
When a soldier's soul, is placed upon his toe,
Traditions that are cold, the fire is in the coal.
We march upon his soil, to gather up the oil, but tell me what's the point.
The governmental voice, always makes the right choice, or so they make it seem.
Tradition says we bow, one of the few left now, should it still apply?
A pry into your life, avoid the sharpened knife, live you life in fear.
But its not enough, to know the world's tough.
And you know we're doomed, you can't just assume.
When a soldier's soul, is placed upon his toe,
Traditions that are cold, the fire is in the coal.
Am I losing my mind, or is it losing me, I guess I'll wait and see.
My mind's a shallow well, perhaps a personal hell, or maybe its just me?
But its not enough, to know the world's tough.
And you know we're doomed, you can't just assume.
When a soldier's soul, is placed upon his toe,
Traditions that are cold, the fire is in the coal.

Jesus Song

Coming down from heaven, in his wake the angels sing, "Jesus Saves."
Congregate together, children hold your laughter; Here, here he comes.
Who survived the rapture? We're still here you bastard; push, breaking free.
Jesus save me; save me from my urges; save me from what hurts me; save me from it; I pray, I pray.
Jesus save me; save me from my courage; save me from discovery. Save me from science.
Living like a rodent to a single god, and what do I get?
Simply die and wake, beg for his forgiveness; what is the point?
Keep the life out of the practice of tradition; Blood, Blood of Christ.
Jesus save me; save me from my urges; save me from what hurts me; save me from it; I pray, I pray.
Jesus save me; save me from my courage; save me from discovery. Save me from science.
And what do I get, for my imaginary friend?
When all that I do is meant to worship him.
What do I get, tell me Jesus please.
What do I get; Jesus save me, save me, save me.
Jesus save me; save me from my urges; save me from what hurts me; save me from it; I pray, I pray.
Jesus save me; save me from my courage; save me from discovery. Save me from science.
