dog food factory
When I wake up I never get up
cos my life sucks and this world’s tough
So I hide away and pretend that
All the things I saw in books and tv were all true
But there really not so I just live a lie
Livin fast so hopefully I be the first to die
Cos guilt can’t jump inside your grave
Unless theres an afterlife then I’m goin taste the flame

I think all the normal folks are the crazy ones
Oh shit what would they think of me?
Oh wait I don’t really care I just drink and am happy to be
The one with no style just wearing the lie I like to call my smile
Everywhere I look I see the ugly and the bad while others see the good I just see a fucking fad
Well I guess I’m fucking mad just a kooky lanky lad with no real life plan getting hassled by the man smoking buds in a can making sweet love to my hand
If you’re feeling like theres no point at all Take a ticket get in line were all waiting for the call
In the meantime get drunk in the sun rub coke in you’re gums  kick loose and go fire off guns  
Save the grief for the reaper and take a leaf from book of the man who took the leap
Don’t pretend the price is too steep you can lose it all just to put it all together agian
I’ve had tough luck so throw bottoms up come on now son drain and that cup
Life is one big trick honey, running round trying to get me qick money
You got to free yourself from the chains
Can’t stand it this dog food’s all same
Going round and round the cycle won’t ever stop
And I’ll be watch this meat grinder till I drop
I might just jump inside
Don’t think the dogs will mind
I might just jump right in
Pulp my guts  shred my skin
I might just jump inside
Don’t think the dogs will mind
Stuff my body into a can
Slap on some shitty brand
You can call me chum
Cos I’ll be dog shit when I’m done
I might just jump inside
Don’t think the dogs will mind
I might just jump right in
Pulp my guts  shred my skin
I might just jump inside
Don’t think the dogs will mind
Stuff my body into a can
Slap on some shitty brand
You can call me chum
Cos I’ll be dog shit when I’m done

The Hang Of Life

We're looking around
and we're trying to find a way.
Just what it is like
we don't know what to say.

And all the people
go through their lives
just looking for something,
Anything,
To get a hold of.

And I never got the hang of life.
I never really got to know what it's all about.
Just learning to sing and shout
and watch the people as they go by their business.

Don't know what to say.
Don't know what to do.
And I tried my best
to make my way.
And I tried my best
to make my way.

Thinking: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xsBn-_Xi2mU

You walk around like you've lost all need for anyone, well don't you?
And you come around like you'll give up on everyone, well won't you?
Well I'm not afraid of anything or anyone, believe me
But I won't bend over backwards just for you to need me

Chorus:
But I don't want to be the only one to blame
If we can't, if we can't, all remain the same
Will you take, are you taking, all that remains?
Leave me with, leave me with, all that can't be saved.

Are all the shadows in the distance keeping you from finding me?
'Cos I find that the promises we made are always blinding me, especially right now
And I don't believe in anything anymore
Ever since the second, yeah the second, I found you were keeping score

Chorus:
But I don't want to be the only one to blame
If we can't, if we can't, all remain the same
Will you take, are you taking, all that remains?
Leave me with, leave me with, all that can't be saved.

Do I walk around like I've lost all need for anyone
because that isn't true.
Do I come around like I'll give up on everyone
because I haven't given up on you

But lately I've been thinking
That lately you've been thinking far too much
And lately I've been dreaming
That lately you've been dreaming all about us
And lately I've been wanting, for you to be wanting more
Than whatever we've got
And lately I've been loving that you've been loving me
For what I am more than what I'm not

Chorus:
But I don't want to be the only one to blame
If we can't, if we can't, all remain the same
Will you take, are you taking, all that remains?
Leave me with, leave me with, all that can't be saved.

"Alone Again"

Take my silent sigh  
the last sigh, since the day i died    
grey skies cast over ground    
the skies fall down with muted sound    
my family's left, they cast the stone    
all that remains is splintered bone    
time is lost    
its never found    
split the cost    
the cable's slack    
but never wound.    
   
im lost again    
im home again    
alone again    
i am home again    
   
space makes peace with memory that find    
isolation melts as the mind reminds    
colors explode as darkness creeps    
intruders intrude as the body sleeps    
the rope is tight      
not letting go    
wrong is right    
yes means no    
up is down    
black is white    
transform the darkness    
into light    
   
Alone again    
thanks a lot    
home again    
i took my shot.    
Alone again    
im home again    
lost again    
i am home again.    
   
(Repeat x3)    
   
   
Something has gone    
never to return    
the needle is dropped    
as the Candle burns.    
the knife is sharp    
its Handle blured    
the blade is buried    
as the scars return.    
my eyes closed tight    
don't want to blink    
in uncharted waters i start to sink.    
arms open wide, but letting go    
suppress the feeling      
as they start to grow.    
     

       What’s In A Name               (Sing to the tune of Tequila Sunrise - by The Eagles)

G                                                                         There’s a rift among our townsfolk
I’m neither a singer, nor a poet                           “It never ends.”
D                                                Am                    Can we just all get along,
Tryin’ to get a job I planned to keep                     For we share the same vision
D7                   G                                                   Let us unite.
“The days go by.”                                                                    
                                                                            Repeat refrain…

Em                          C                                           Come and join us.
Every year when Christmas comes                      G

Am                                 D7                                 What’s a missing letter in a name?
Dancin’ to the rockin’ band.                                D7                           G

                      II
I’m new in your neighborhood                                   *** end ***
Wonderin’ what’s in a name
It puzzles me.

It’s just another organization
This new group still looks the same
Enlighten me.

Just the two of us
In a world of lust
No rules,just a careless freestyle burst
She can be on top
I like the ladies having their way
But the other way round produces a better thrust
in and out
Whispers and shouts
Eyes closed and open mouths
Lips against lips
Hands around the hips
This is where we should be
In perfect harmony

We weren't in the spirit
Yet we just couldn't kill it
We just kept going till even the room could feel it

This is a holy sin
In a game between two tangled minds, both party wins
Like serpents...
We coil around ourselves
Her long legs spreading apart so I can have a triumphant entry
Not into Jerusalem
But into a wet warm realm
The hiding place of pleasure
digging like I'm on a search for treasure
Once there nothing again feels so wrong
Its blah blah blah
We just speak in strange tongues
But...

We weren't in the spirit
Still we just couldn't kill it
We just kept going till even the room could feel it

Now who can fine tune our location?
What device will he or she use?
we are lost in outer space
We're like clouds in the sky
Our souls' in a lift
This lady's got some gifts
She knows perfectly how to put em to use
Sex in the tropics
Heavy breathing,sweating,screaming
Body conversation up to the max
As thigh to thigh collide
Perfect timing,in unison we climax
And then we catch the gift of tongues even though...

We weren't in the spirit
Yet we couldn't kill
We just kept going till even the room could feel it

EMBERS

I walk this same path I know it so well
sliding back to a life that's heading for hell
so many footprints so much I have wasted
this battle I'm loosing I've got to turn round and face it
a spec in the horizon now a life full of fear
I want to turn and run to find complacency's care
but now there's nothing to see to gaze back at the past
ignorant life just doesn't last

Take a hit to forget it a smoke to remember
as the rage inside grows like a smouldering ember
let it all go or haven't you got the strenght
are you calling me weak could you go the length?

You call me a hard bastard when my face wears a frown
but if I'm never happy then I can't crash down
if I have no hope I wont feel it fall apart
if I avoid love then you wont break my heart
I put on this mask so you wont see my pain
to stop you from seeing whats inside my brain
my life is a dream that I can't control
serving a life sentence I can't make parole

Take a hit to forget it a smoke to remember
as the rage inside grows like a smouldering ember
let it all go or haven't you got the strength
are you calling me weak could you go the length?

I couldn't handle the pain I tried to carry the cross
now I need this to live without this hit I am lost
that mountain of fear down this path of regret
my blinded past and the pain I'll never forget
I lived my life the only way I knew how
mental suicide emotional hell
now one hit too many and I'm leaving it behind
what I was seeking I just couldn't find

Take a hit to forget it a smoke to remember
as the rage inside grows like a smouldering ember
let it all go or haven't you got the strength
are you calling me weak could you go the length?

Closing Door Rap Lyrics

(Chorus)
There are times when a moment leaves a smile cross the face,
times when a heart is left aching from a break,
moments together now are memories of the past
when one door is opened another may shut from the blast.
 
In night's heavy darkness the shadows become friends,
the arms lovingly cradling when the soul takes a spin
into the depths of acceptance and the grief of such loss.
The pain of devotion that must be sealed in a box.
The wet trails of tears are a moment of release
when sobs no longer escape
and the passions halt in their escapades.
 
(Chorus)
There are times when a moment leaves a smile cross the face,
times when a heart is left aching from a break,
moments together now are memories of the past
when one door is opened another may shut from the blast.
 
Reality searches in the mind of emptiness
where feelings once cherished are now placed on a stand
to be examined from a distance like a doll on a shelf,
such beauty and detail; look but you know...well...
Emotions tamped down till they all but dissipate
and what could have been is just lost, it's too late.
 
(Chorus)
There are times when a moment leaves a smile cross the face,
times when a heart is left aching from a break,
moments together now are memories of the past
when one door is opened another may shut from the blast.
 
Desires are stamped into dreams that exist
in one world of the living and another where we're dead.
Travel through hell into a pain incomparable
as the soul is ripped with such force
that it actually leaves nothingness to prevail.
Step into the pits of an unforgiving realm
where each step is a torment that does more than overwhelm.
 
(Chorus)
There are times when a moment leaves a smile cross the face,
times when a heart is left aching from a break,
moments together now are memories of the past
when one door is opened another may shut from the blast.
 
Screams filled with anger, such passion to buckle,
and hurts reawoken till their venom defiles
again and again like the whip of despair,
slicing and cursing, a cross no longer to bear.  
Shed like the tears, disgust fading and lost in the wind,
hopelessness the foundation from which to begin again.
No longer a grave for the hurts to be buried,
for their ashes are lost and the fire never stops burning.
 
(Chorus)
There are times when a moment leaves a smile cross the face,
times when a heart is left aching from a break,
moments together now are memories of the past
when one door is opened another may shut from the blast.

Who Do You See    


When you look in the mirror
is their someone else
defects in the shimmer
reflecting a hell
or a perfect winner
with stories to tell
the glimmer gets dimmer
when I look for myself .


To step into the world
of other direction
would all the wrong turns
become the right selection
we only ever learn
upon reflection
inside I die and burn
because of all the rejection
I wish I could so turn
the dirt to confection
inside the mirror yearns
my own acceptance .

Who do you see
I don't know if  it's me
reflection  , rejection
direction  , selection  
the mirror always yearns
my own acceptance  
visual  , pictional
optical , recipricol
defects in the shimmer
the glimmer gets dimmer
I do not see the winner
when I look for myself .

When you look in the mirror
is their someone else
defects in the shimmer
reflecting a hell
or a perfect winner
with stories to tell
the glimmer gets dimmer
is their someone else

Who do you see
I don't know if  it's me
reflection  , rejection
direction  , selection  
the mirror always yearns
my own acceptance  
visual  , pictional
optical , recipricol
defects in the shimmer
the glimmer gets dimmer
I do not see the winner
when I look for myself .
I do not see the winner
when I look for myself .
