Never tries to make amends
The rules they break, they try to bend
Never wants a simple end
For without conflict, reprimand

Contort our beliefs
To mindless little thieves
Never would’ve grieved
Unless they’re part of me

Terrorize them till they break
Bomb them so they’ll stay awake
Make them bleed for heaven’s sake
Never wonder what’s at steak

The ****** of many
The death of the plenty
We blow up the married
For a peaceful contrary

I’m a changed man
I’m doing just fine
Just take me back
I’ve got nothing to hide

Then and now
Why and how
Now and then
How and when

Foolish little past
It gets in my way
All my friends
I must defend

Why?

I must defend
All my friends
Gets in my way
Foolish little past

How and when
Now and then
Why and how
Then and now

I’ve got nothing to hide
Just take me back
I’m doing just fine
I’m a changed man

The scent of the burning
The shock of it all
The man’s in the oven
The visions we call

Electrocution
In a tub of lost fears
We’re blinded by hatred
Yet still serve our years

The bestest invention
Since the slicing of bread
I wish I were happy
But now I am dead

It’s all the ideas
That rush through my brain
As a sigh in relief
I look back on the pain

A note in the toilet
A lock on the door
For if anyone saw me
They’d probably hurl

Once it’s plugged in
And once the bath’s full
I cannot give in
To this stupid life on an earth

I remember the days
And they drive me insane
Wish I could go back to them
But there’s no real way

Living life in the past
Never was as pretty as it seems
Ignoring the future and present
It’s a gift not worth being received

I remember the times
When everything rhymed
Everything made sense
And I took on the world

But now the world takes on me
It feeds off of me
It’s living off fear
And I’m the host

I’ll give back what’s borrowed
I’ll release my sorrow
Tomorrow

I’ll submit to dictators
I’ll pray for my creator
Sometime later

I’ll forget you ever
I’ll repent however
Whenever

Whenever means never
Later I’ll be gone
And tomorrow I’ll be wronged
It won’t happen
Forever

I’ve got to save the girl that I betrayed
I’ve got to lie to her so I can get my ways
I’ve got to change her perception or she will doubt
But if she finds out then I’ll come crashing down

I know you want to help
And I know you’re dying to
But there is no escape
I know you’re trying to

I’ve got to save the man that he’s become
I’ve got to make amends or he’ll be done
I’ve got to change his world or he’ll fall apart
But if he won’t budge then I’ll join his run

I know I won’t forget
But yet I’m trying to
It is my worst regret
But I am dying too

Falling through the sky, it’s just us
You and I, we can trust
Goodbye to the living
No time left for our forgiving

No escape
No escaping anxiety
No more praise
No more praising society

I’ve given up
I’ve let myself down
Falling through blank space
I wish I never really knew

I don’t want to go to heaven
I don’t want live on earth
I just want to go away
To a place much like a dream

I hope I’ll forget
I hope I’ll slip away
I hope it’s soon enough
For I don’t know who to trust
