Cos I heard it all before
Yeah I heard you all before
We’re gonna die
We’re gonna die here
I don’t wanna die
I don’t wanna die here
Somebody please
Get me the hell out of here
I’m sick of the same old shit
So sick of the same old shit
I wake up in the same old pit
Wake up in the same old pit
I’m sick of the same old song
So sick of the same old song
Been singing it for far too long
Singing it for far too long
We’re gonna die
We’re gonna die here
I don’t wanna die
I don’t wanna die here
Somebody please
Get me the hell out of here
Oh somebody
Oh somebody
Get me out of here…

REGURGITATE
They fatten you up with junk food
In a chemical slump cos they saturate you
Your brain cells rot and your body too
Can’t concentrate cos they debilitate you
Regurgitate all that they told you
Like you’re supposed to
Let them control you
Co-operate and look where it gets you
You’re all lined up to die
They put the poison in your well
Selling you shit you don’t need
Got you hooked so you’re easily led
They’re sucking your bones clean
Regurgitate all that they sold you
Like you’re supposed to
Let them control you
Co-operate and look where it gets you
You’re all lined up to die

Stamp Your Own Path
“Be as we are, do as we say”
Hey! You’re no slave!
Listen not to what they shout
They wear you out, they wear you out.
You don’t need anyone
You never did and you never will
So c’mon
Stamp your own path.
It’s not what you know
But who
That’s how they own you
There must be another way
Block their words from your head
They want you dead, they want you dead
But don’t let them drag you down
Step away from the straight and narrow
You were born
To stamp your own path
(hand claps)
You don’t need anyone
You never did and you never will
So don’t let them drag you down
Step away from the straight and narrow
Come on, stamp your own path.

JARDIM GRAMACHO
You won’t decompose
You won’t disintegrate
You will exist forever
Inanimate
You got no soul
You got no soul
You got no soul
You got no soul
You’re gonna dig that hole
Gonna fill it up
Build em high just to smash em up
You got no soul
You got no soul
You got no soul
You got no soul
Oh your eyes are cold
Your eyes are cold
One day
You will destroy everything
Everything that’s beautiful
You got no soul
You got no soul
You got no soul
You got no soul
You’re gonna dig that hole
Gonna fill it up
Build em high just to smash em up
You got no soul
You got no soul
You got no soul
You got no soul
Oh your eyes are cold
Your deadness floats around me.
Polyethylene clouds choking beauty
And you in your useless inifinity
Disgust and disappoint me.
You got no soul
You got no soul
You got no soul
You got no soul
You’re gonna dig that hole
Gonna fill it up
Build em high just to smash em up
You got no soul
You got no soul
You got no soul
You got no soul
Your eyes are closed

Nail In My Coffin

NAIL IN MY COFFIN
Congratulations, you’re the last nail in my coffin
I could have fought this but you hammered it home
So now I’m choking on my last gasp of oxygen
Still contemplating where it all went wrong
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Commiserations, you picked the losing ticket
Let’s have a look at what you could have won
Insane grinning. Try to hide your disappointment
You beat yourself up over what you should have done
I should have known it’d never work
I should have known but I never learn
Now I’m the only one can save me
I am on my own
So now I know where I’m going wrong
And all I need is another song
The last thing that I need’s another nail in my coffin.
Congratulations you’re the last nail in my coffin.
There’s never gonna be another one.
I’m almost broken but I will not be beaten.
Not by you or anyone.
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh.
I should have known it’d never work
I should have known but I never learn
Now I’m the only one can save me
I am on my own
But now I know where I’m going wrong
Cos all I need is another song
The last thing that I need’s another nail in my coffin.

Float

FLOAT
I used to float above the hard ground
Never let my feet touch gravel, stone or concrete
Gliding like a spirit
Levitation expert, truly on the outskirts
Circumnavigating, avoiding and evading.
Then they got their claws in, put me in a headlock
Spiked me with their poison
Cyanide and hemlock
Weakened me with fever, drained me of my colour
Stripped away my armour and kicked me to the gutter
Oh oh oh oh
I used to float
I used to float above the hard ground
Never let my feet touch gravel, stone or concrete
Gliding like a spirit
Levitation expert, truly on the outskirts
Emancipated from everything I hated.
Then they got their claws in, put me in a headlock
Spiked me with their poison
Cyanide and hemlock
Ohhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhhh

SOOOULSUCKERRR
You peel back the polythene
Raining your acid down
On everything
Who made you king you motherfucker?
Who let you in? Let you in? Let you…
You soooulsuckerrr!
You’re deafening, deafening.
You creep now to snuff the flame
But your shadow gives you away
I know your game
Who made you king you motherfucker?
Who let you in? Let you in? Let you…
You soooulsuckerrr!
You’re deafening, deafening.
How clumsily you wear your crown
Like a fool
You try so hard to bring me down
But I resist you
And even though you scream and shout
It’s no use
You’re never gonna bring me down
Glistening, your eyes are filled with hate…
So unhappy with yourself that you just live to destroy and to dictate.
You terrorise and criticise, all your lies converge,
But no matter how black you paint me I know you’re worse.
Who made you king?

THINGS CLEAN AND UNCLEAN
A sneak peek how it could have been
I wanna crawl right in to your perfect skin
I’m gonna slide under your insides
Take this trip through your perfect eyes
Cos ooh I’ve had enough of me
I’m so sick sick sick of this misery
So let me hide awhile in your perfect smile
Dream all this is mine
All the light in your eyes
I wanna steal it
All the love in your life
I wanna feel it
But of try as I might
This can never be
Cos you’re clean and I’m unclean
We’re gonna turn it round
Take my heart, it’ll bring you down
Yeah you’ll get no relief
If you try to smile through my crooked teeth
Cos ooh you’ll be cursing me
As you slip slip slip into my disease
So c’mon wrap your legs ‘round my dirty sheets
Dream my violent dreams
All the light in your eyes
I wanna steal it
All the love in your life
I wanna feel it
But oh try as I might
This can never be
Cos you’re clean and I’m unclean
Unclean
Unclean
Unclean

FIGHT OR FLIGHT
I’m not faking anymore
Rinse away the blood cos this is hardcore
Knuckles white
I’m ready for this fight
And I’m not shaking anymore
Do your worst
I am strong
Held my grip
For so long
Roots are deep
Underground
I won’t fall down
I won’t fall down
I’m not sliding anymore
Rinse away the blood
That’s what a scar’s for
Knuckles crack
I’m ready to attack
And I’m not hiding anymore
Do your worst
I am strong
Held my grip
For so long
Roots are deep
Underground
I won’t fall down
I won’t fall down
Scratch and claw
My way out of this
I will scratch and claw
My way out of this
I will scratch and claw
My way out of this…
Do your worst
I am strong
Held my grip
For so long
Roots are deep
Underground
I won’t fall down
I won’t fall down
It’s fight or flight

No Logo

NO LOGO
I won’t sell my soul to the corporation
They can’t buy this cos it’s the only thing that’s real
You all line up for the money
Bend over and lose all dignity
But that’s not how we roll
So looks like we’re on our own
When did you all become the same?
Your rebellion, it’s so safe
Feels like it’s just us fighting
As every one of you gets sucked right in.
No Logo!
I won’t sell my soul to the corporation
They can’t pay me to be the face of their disease
You bow your heads in submission
Drop your pants as they brand you like cattle
We don’t follow the herd
So looks like we’re going first.
When did you all become the same?
Your rebellion, it’s so safe
Feels like it’s just us fighting,
As every one of you gets sucked right in!
No Logo!
I won’t sell my soul!
You’re desperate and eager to please.
They got you on your knees.
How meekly you submit.
Oh how you beg for it.
Whatever happened to integrity and intent?
Is nothing sacred?
It’s all product placement.
We’re not a tool for the marketing.
We’re not hawking anything.
We won’t tell you what to buy.
Or how to live your life!
Whoah oh oh oh!
I wouldn’t do it if you paid me!

Swallow The Sound

SWALLOW THE SOUND
They’re all gonna say that I’ve gone mad
They’re all gonna say that I’ve gone mad
Well, what the hell? Have I gone mad?
Well what if I have? What if I have?
They’re all gonna say they can save me
They’re all gonna say they can save me
Some with wisdom and some with poetry
Some with religion and some chemistry
They’re all gonna blame somebody
They’re all gonna blame somebody
Blame my friends or blame my family
Blame themselves or blame humanity
They’re all gonna say that I’ve gone mad
They’re all gonna say that I’ve gone mad
They’re all gonna say that I’ve gone mad
They’re all gonna say that I’ve gone mad
They’re all gonna say that I’ve gone mad
They’re all gonna say that I’ve gone mad
They’re all gonna say that I’ve gone mad
They’re all gonna say that I’ve gone mad
They follow me down
They swallow me down
I swallow the sound
They follow me down
They swallow me down
They swallow me
They don’t own me
They don’t owe me
They don’t know me

An Unbearable Lightness

AN UNBEARABLE LIGHTNESS
The sensation of letting go…
Fingers peeling one by one
An unbearable lightness
Then a rush of adrenaline
The Dead Sea that holds you afloat
Is all the tears you shed
So lie back and drift away
Cos all of this is just in your head
You’re stepping over the edge
Descending peacefully
An unbearable lightness
Then a rush of adrenaline
The Dead Sea that holds you afloat,
Is all the tears you shed
So lie back and drift away
Cos all this is just in your head
Just in your head
Just in your head.

The Only Way Is Down

THE ONLY WAY IS DOWN
You’re spinning on the spot
Drill yourself into the ground
6ft down 6ft down
Swallow the sound
Keep it inside you
You give it all you got
But still the only way is down
6ft down 6ft down
It’s over now
There’s nothing left inside you
It’s all beaten out!
You’re working as long as you’re waking
You’re giving much more than you’re taking
It’s only your own bones you’re breaking
Just look at the mess that you’re making
You’re spiralling, unravelling
Losing grip on everything
It all falls down
It all falls down
It all falls down
You’re spinning on the spot
Drill yourself into the ground
6ft down 6ft down!
