The Way of the Fist
Five Finger Death Punch lyrics to all songs featured on The Way of the FistAshes
Right. Hate. Hate. Hate,
Bring it.
[Verse one]
You don’t understand me,
And you probably never will
I got a tendency to self destruct,
And a soft spot for the filth
A hair trigger temperament,
A switchblade for a tongue
I’m a walking one-man genocide
With a black belt in corrupt
[Chorus]
Everything I touch turns to ashes
Falls away, it falls away
Everything I touch turns to ashes
It slips right through my hands
Love me, hate me
Isolate me everyday that I’m alive
Straight up mentally unstable
You don’t have to like my life
[Verse two]
I’m a jinx, a curse, some say, “the worst”
I’m a savage, rabid beast
I’ve been called so many fucking things,
It doesn’t affect me in the least
I’ve stolen, lied, been crucified but I don’t regret a thing
I’m an egocentric masochist with a sadist’s point of bleak
[Chorus]
Everything I touch turns to ashes
Falls away, it falls away
Everything I touch turns to ashes
It slips right through my hands
Love me, hate me
Isolate me everyday that I’m alive
Live to prove you wrong, it’s easy
When your heart is filled with ice
Chapters in my life define me
Chase me into this deprived
Straight up, mentally unstable
You don’t have to like my life
[Chorus]
Everything I touch turns to ashes
Falls away, it falls away
Everything I touch turns to ashes
It slips right through my hands
The Way of the Fist
Break this shit down!
Zoltan, open the sky!
[Verse one]
You want it, you got it
Everything you needed and more
You said it, I heard it
Careful what you wish for
Deleted, defeated everything you’ve ever been
No mercy, it’s the way of the fist
[Pre-Chorus]
Strapped with rage, got no patience for victims
Sick and tired of the whole fuckin’ world
[Chorus]
I don’t remember asking you about your imperfections
You might win one battle
But know this, I’ll win the fucking war!
End of the goddamn road! (Right!)
Step to me, step to me motherfucker
Zip your lip, you’ve run out of time
Step to me, step to me motherfucker
Talk the talk, now walk the damn line
[Verse two]
Deserve it, you earned it, got yourself a fuckin’ war
Believe it, you need it, face down on the fuckin’ floor
I hate it, can’t take it
Wanna break your fuckin’ bones
No mercy, you faggot
Should’ve left it all alone
[Pre-Chorus]
Strapped with rage, got no patience for victims
Sick and tired of the whole fuckin’ world
[Chorus]
I don’t remember asking you about your imperfections
You might win one battle
But know this, I’ll win the fucking war!
As you crash and burn
1, 2, fuck you! (Right!)
Step to me, step to me motherfucker
Zip your lip, you’ve run out of time
Step to me, step to me motherfucker
Talk the talk, now walk the damn line!
Step to me, step to me motherfucker
Shut your face, it’s your turn to die
Step to me, step to me anybody
Talk the shit, your ass is mine!
[Chorus]
I don’t remember asking you about your imperfections
You might win one battle
But know this, I’ll win the fucking war!
Salvation
[Verse one]
Disgusted by your weakness
You have no right to live
To know you is to hate you
But your life’s yours to give
[Pre-Chorus]
You monkey see, you monkey do
You’re always doing what they tell you to
You’re such a puppet on a string
You don’t get it!
[Chorus]
I won’t bow to something that I’ve never seen
Can’t believe in something that doesn’t believe in me
I’m not blood of your blood, I’m no son of your god
I’ve no faith in your fate
Still I find salvation
[Verse two]
You think you have the answers to every last detail
In your eyes, you’re the victor
In mine you’ve all but failed
[Pre-Chorus]
You monkey see, you monkey do
You’re always doing what they tell you to
You’re like a puppet on a string
You don’t get it!
You monkey see, you monkey do
You’re always doing what they tell you to
You’re like a puppet on a string
You don’t get it!
[Chorus]
I won’t bow to something that I’ve never seen
Can’t believe in something that doesn’t believe in me
I’m not blood of your blood, I’m no son of your god
I’ve no faith in your fate
Still I find salvation
Still I find salvation
Still I find salvation
The Bleeding
[Verse one]
I remember when all the games began
Remember every little lie and every last goodbye
Promises you broke, words you choked on
And I never walked away
It’s still a mystery to me
[Pre-Chorus]
Well I’m so empty
I’m better off without you and you’re better off without me
Well you’re so unclean
I’m better off without you and you’re better off without me
[Chorus]
The lying, the bleeding, the screaming
Was tearing me apart
The hatred (deceiving), the beatings; it’s over
[Verse two]
Paint the mirrors black to forget you
I still picture your face and the way you used to taste
Roses in a glass, dead and wilted
To you this all was nothing
Everything to you is nothing
[Pre-Chorus]
Well you’re so filthy
I’m better off without you and you’re better off without me
Well I’m so ugly
You’re better off without me and I’m better off alone
[Chorus]
The lying, the bleeding, the screaming
Was tearing me apart
The hatred, the beatings (disaster); it’s over
[Bridge]
As wicked as you are, you’re beautiful to me
You’re the darkest burning star, you’re my perfect disease
[Chorus]
The lying, the bleeding, the screaming
Was tearing me apart
The hatred, the beatings; it’s over
Disaster
The lying, the bleeding, the screaming
Was tearing me apart
The hatred, the beatings; it’s over
Disaster
It’s over now…
A Place To Die
[Verse one]
It’s days like this I wish that I, wish that I had stayed asleep
It’s times like these that make it so difficult to be
The light at the end, the crack in the sky
there’s no promise for release
No way for me to get away
And all I’m trying to do is breathe
[Chorus]
Searching…for something more
Searching…for something right
Searching…for a sense of clarity
Searching…for a place to die!
[Verse two]
Days like this I really wish, I really wish I wasn’t me
It’s times like this that make it hard, makes it hard to fuckin’ see
No light at the end, no crack in the sky
everyone ends up deceased
A life like mine makes a man, turns a grown man to a flea
[Chorus]
Searching…for something more
Searching…for something right
Searching…for a sense of clarity
Searching…for a place to die!
[Pridge]
Piece by piece, I slowly fade away,
I slowly drift apart
I see a different world, closing in on the future
Sorry to be so cynical but it’s all I know
Piece by piece, I slowly start to change
I slowly start to change!
[Verse three]
It’s days like this I wish that I, wish that I had stayed asleep
It’s times like these that make it so difficult to be
No light at the end, no crack in the sky
everyone ends up deceased
A life like mine makes a man, turns a grown man to a flea
[Chorus]
Searching…for something more
Searching…for something right
Searching…for a sense of clarity
Searching…for a place to die!
Searching for a place to die!
The Devil's Own
The Devil’s own
Why!?
[Chorus]
Where did I go wrong? Who was I supposed to be?
No matter what I’ve done, you’ve always criticized me
Where did I go wrong? Who was I supposed to be?
When it’s said and done, will you remember…
[Verse one]
Slap on the wrist, smack in the face
The family tree, gave me a name and nothing more
Neglected seed, why!?
[Pre-chorus]
It’s because of you I’m broken
It’s because of you I’m dead inside
I never asked to be here
It’s because of you I’m godforsaken
I never wanted this
It’s because of you I’m dead inside
[Chorus]
Where did I go wrong? Who was I supposed to be?
No matter what I’ve done, you’ve always criticized me
What did I do wrong? What was I supposed to be?
When it’s said and done, will you remember me?
[Verse two]
A happy home, a fairy tale, a broken dream
Gave me a life, then turned away
Killed everything, why!?
[Pre-chorus]
It’s because of you I’m broken
It’s because of you I’m dead inside
I never asked to be here
It’s because of you I’m godforsaken
I never wanted this
It’s because of you I’m dead inside
[Breakdown]
Fuck!
Father, bastard, I’m the Devil’s very own
Mother, know not, just who I’ve become
Father, hate me, for being all you’re not
Mother’s baby, I hate what I’ve become
I hate what I’ve become
I hate what I’ve become
[Pre-chorus]
It’s because of you I’m broken
It’s because of you I’m dead inside
[Chorus]
Where did I go wrong? Who was I supposed to be?
No matter what I’ve done, you’ve always criticized me
What did I do wrong? What was I supposed to be?
When it’s said and done, will you remember me?
White Knuckles
Oh, fuck it all!
[Verse one]
Sick of being sick and tired, sick of understanding
Tired of feeling sick to my stomach
Demons inside command me
They’re saying crush it, break it, smash it
Fuckin’ kill ’em all!
Laugh as it falls away
I won’t dodge another silver bullet
Just to save a little face
[Chorus:]
I want you to know, I want you to see
I want you to look beyond your own eyes
Past your afflictions
[Verse two]
How many people really care?
How many will be standing?
I’ll light the match, the flame, the fuse, the bomb
Rescue the world from slavery
I wanna torch it, burn it, scorch it, fuckin’ stomp it out
Laugh as it blows away
I won’t eat another rotten apple
Though I’ve grown to like the taste
[Chorus]
I want you to know, I want you to see
I want you to look beyond your own eyes
Past your afflictions
I want you to hurt, want you to bleed
I want you to look beyond your own face
Past your infections
[Breakdown]
I’m taking back control with my knuckles
I’m taking back control with my knuckles
I’m taking back control with my knuckles
I’m taking back control with my knuckles
Smash it, burn it, break it, kill it
Fuck ’em all!
[Chorus]
I want you to know, I want you to see
I want you to look beyond your own eyes
Past your afflictions
I want you to hurt, want you to bleed
I want you to look beyond your own face
Past your infections
Never Enough
[Verse one]
I’m so fed up with everyone around me
No one seems to care
I’m just so far gone and nothing’s gonna change
I’ll never be the same
It’s always do this, do that, everything they want to
I don’t wanna live that way (No!)
Every chance they get they’re always pushing me away
[Chorus]
It’s never enough, no it’s never enough
No matter what I say
It’s never enough, no it’s never enough
I’ll never be what you want me to be
[Verse two]
It’s all so messed up and no one ever listens
Everyone’s deranged
I’m just so fucked up and I’m never gonna change
I wanna lay it all to waste
They’re always say this, say that, nothing that you want to
I don’t wanna live that way (No!)
Every chance they get they’re always shoving me aside
[Chorus]
It’s never enough, no it’s never enough
No matter what I say
It’s never enough, no it’s never enough
I’ll never be what you want me to be
I’M DONE!
[Breakdown]
In the end we’re all just chalk lines on the concrete
Drawn only to be washed away
For the time that I’ve been given
I am what I am
I’d rather hate you for everything you are
Than ever love you for something you are not
I’d rather you hate me for everything I am
Than have you love me for something that I can’t
[Chorus]
It’s never enough, it’s never enough
No matter what I say
It’s never enough, no it’s never enough
No matter who I try to be
It’s never enough, no it’s never enough
No matter how I try to change
It’s never enough, never never enough
I’ll never be what you want me to be
Stranger Than Fiction
[Intro]
It’s stranger than fiction
How you’ve decayed
It must be so lonely
Lost within your ways
[Verse one]
You’re born alone, you die alone
The rest is yours to fill the gap
The world goes on without you here
Adjust or just collapse
[Chorus]
Is this what you wanted to be
Alone standing by yourself
Is this all you wanted to be
Or was that a cry for help
By yourself, by yourself, by yourself
[Verse two]
Verbal grenades
You throw in vain
I can’t believe you’d stoop so low
Of all the things you took away
I miss my mind the most
[Chorus]
Is this what you wanted to be
Alone standing by yourself
Is this all you wanted to be
Or was that a cry for help
By yourself, by yourself, by yourself
Is this what you wanted to be
Alone standing by yourself
Is this all you wanted to be
Or was that a cry for help!
[Outro]
It’s stranger than fiction
How you’ve decayed
It must be so lonely
Lost within your ways
Can't Heal You
[Verse one]
The deeper you get, the farther you fall down
The closer I get, the more you dissolve
[Pre-Chorus]
You’re lost inside, your pale addictions
Bury you, with the demons in the ash
[Chorus]
Can’t heal you, don’t want to
cause you can’t save your-fuckin’-self
Can’t heal you, don’t need to
cause you won’t save yourself
[Verse two]
You are the one who made the decision
stuck in a prison, shattered and broken
I am the one who, expected to heal you, save you from drowning in your endless nightmare
Blessed be, the disillusioned
The banished misfit and the cursed hollow son
[Chorus]
Can’t heal you, I don’t want to
cause you can’t save yourself
Can’t help you, don’t need to
cause you won’t save yourself
[Pre-Chorus]
We’re taught to perish but fade away
Become the haunted and die as slaves
[Chorus]
Can’t heal you, I don’t want to
cause you can’t save yourself
Can’t help you, don’t need to
cause you won’t save yourself
Can’t heal you, don’t want to
cause you can’t save your-fuckin’-self
Can’t heal you, don’t need to
cause you won’t save yourself
Death Before Dishonor
[Verse one]
To the haters, the takers, the liars, all the vultures and the bottom feeding scum
The FCC, the FBI and every tin god with a badge and a gun
You talk and talk, you preach and bitch but your words don’t mean a thing
You get what you give, you give what you get
Just the way it’s always been
[Chorus]
I choose death before dishonor
I’d rather die than live down on my knees
Bury me like a soldier, with my dignity!
[Verse two]
You imitate the ostracized, put your head beneath the sand
Your cup it runneth over, must be rough to live so grand
You reap what you sew, you pay what you owe unless you bathe yourself in greed
You rob and you take, your world is fake
There’s no honor amongst the thieves
[Chorus]
I choose death before dishonor
I’d rather die than live down on my knees
Bury me like a soldier, with my dignity!
[Breakdown]
Fuck!
You’re self righteous, self pretentious
Your ways are not for me
You’re deluded, so confused
Your world I dominate
[Chorus]
I choose death before dishonor
I’d rather die than live down on my knees
Bury me like a soldier…
Bury me! (Bury me!)
Bury me! (Bury me!)
Bury me!
With my dignity!
Meet The Monster
[Verse one]
It’s not that complicated and you ain’t gotta believe
They’ll put me down in a hole before I let you succeed
I’ve never been complacent, I can’t afford to be
I know you think you’re special but you ain’t nothin’
[Pre-Chorus]
Can you read between the lines?
Or are you stuck in black and white?
Hope I’m on the list of people that you hate
It’s time you met the monster that you have helped create
Boo!
[Chorus]
You’ve pushed me one too many times
I’m sick of all of the fiction, we’re gonna settle it
You’ve pushed me one too many times
I’m sick of all of the shit, I’m gonna settle it!
[Verse two]
It’s not that complicated and you ain’t gotta believe
They’ll put me down in a hole before I let you succeed
I’ve never been complacent, I can’t afford to be
I know you think you’re special but you ain’t nothin’
[Pre-Chorus]
Well there’s nothing you can say to me now
And there’s nothing you can do to stop me
It’s hard not to be a menace to society
When half the population is happy on their knees
[Chorus]
You’ve pushed me one too many times
I’m sick of all of the fiction, we’re gonna settle it
You’ve pushed me one too many times
I’m sick of all of the shit, I’m here to settle it!
[Verse three]
‘Cause I can’t take it anymore
I refuse to live this way
It’s not that I don’t care enough, it’s not that I can’t see
It’s everything inside of me that won’t let me be you
It won’t let me be you!
[Verse four]
It’s not that complicated and you ain’t gotta believe
They’ll put me down in a hole before I let you succeed
I’ve never been complacent, I can’t afford to be
I know you think you’re special but you ain’t nothin’
No, you ain’t nothin’
And you’ll never succeed
I know you think you’re special,
but you ain’t nothin’
But you ain’t nothin’!
Hate Me (Demo)
[Chorus]
It’s not enough
It’s not enough
It never was or will be
I never had the chance to thank you
(FOR RIPPING OUT MY HEART)
It’s not enough
It’s not enough
It never was or will be
I never got the chance to say
(FUCK YOU)
[Verse one]
I don’t want to be your tourniquet
For minor lacerations
Don’t wanna be your Romeo
Because you’re no Goddamn Juliet
(you always did know just what to say; insult and injury)
(YOU JUST LOVE TO HATE ME!)
[Chorus]
It’s not enough
It’s not enough
It never was or will be
I never had the chance to thank you
(FOR RIPPING OUT MY HEART)
It’s not enough
It’s not enough
It never was or will be
I never got the chance to say
(FUCK YOU)
[Verse two]
You’ve got a gun
I’ve got a gun
Let’s write a tragic ending
Don’t wanna be this way again
Don’t wanna be the one to blame
(You can have the high roads; I’ll take the lows, disguise the frailty)
(I JUST LOVE TO HATE YOU!)
[Chorus]
It’s not enough
It’s not enough
It never was or will be
I never had the chance to thank you
(FOR RIPPING OUT MY HEART)
It’s not enough
It’s not enough
It never was or will be
I never got the chance to say
(FUCK YOU)
[Chorus]
(YOU JUST LOVE TO HATE ME!)
It’s not enough
It’s not enough
It never was or will be
I never had the chance to thank you
(FOR RIPPING OUT MY HEART)
It’s not enough
It’s not enough
It never was or will be
I never got the chance to say
(FUCK YOU)
From Out Of Nowhere (Faith No More Cover)
[Verse one]
Tossed into my mind, stirring the calm
You splash me with beauty then you pull me down
Cause you come from out of nowhere
My glance turns to a stare
Obsession rules me, I’m yours from the start
I know you see me, Our eyes interlock
Cause you come from out of nowhere
My glance turns to a stare
[Chorus]
One minute here and one minute there
Don’t know if I’ll laugh or cry
One minute here and one minute there
And then you wave goodbye…
Goodbye
[Verse two]
Sifting to the bottom, every day for two
Energy funnels, all becomes you
Cause you come from out of nowhere
My glance turns to a stare
[Chorus]
One minute here and one minute there
Don’t know if I’ll laugh or cry
One minute here and one minute there
And then you wave goodbye…
One minute here and one minute there
And then I wave goodbye…
Goodbye!
War Is The Answer
Five Finger Death Punch lyrics to all songs featured on War Is The AnswerDying Breed
[Verse one]
Round 1!!
I swear to god I’d do it for fun
Just a dead man walkin’ with a double barrel shotgun
Ain’t a single fucker left to fear
See their lips moving’ but I don’t wanna hear
[Pre-Chorus]
SHOW DOWN (I ain’t backing down from anybody)
THROW DOWN (If I don’t get some space)
LAY DOWN? (Not in this lift or another)
IT’S A NIGHTMARE (and it’s not going away)

All I wanted was your honesty
Something more than this
Something more than me (more than me)
Death can take me if I can’t be free
I am not like you, I’m a dying breed

Round 2!!
Something you just don’t wanna do
Go dancin’ with the devil, unless your wearing my shoes
You got nerve, and I’ll give ya that
Watch the world crumble while you sit on your ass!?!
[Pre-Chorus]
WAKE UP (get your head together motherfucker)
STRAIT UP (Before it’s too late)
STAND UP (Nothing ever lasts forever)
CORRUPT (And that’s how it’s gonna stay)

Something more than this
Something more than me (more than me)
Death can take me if I can’t be free
I am not like you, I’m a dying breed
Hard To See
[Verse one]
I’m growing so distant
Nothing makes sense to me anymore
I’m learning to resist
Becoming more than you ever were
[Chorus]
Can’t explain,
What’s come over me (come over me)
Can’t explain,
Why it’s so hard for me, so hard to see your side
[Verse two]
Projecting all my anger
I can’t seem to get this through to you
The walls are closing in
I dare you to walk in my shoes
[Chorus]
Can’t explain,
What’s come over me (come over me)
Can’t explain,
Why it’s so hard for me, so hard to see your side
Your side
I won’t see your side
Can’t explain,
What’s come over me (come over me)
Can’t explain,
Why it’s so hard for me, so hard to see your side
Can’t explain,
What’s come over me (come over me)
Can’t explain,
Why it’s so hard for me, so hard to see your side
I won’t see
Your side
Bulletproof
[Verse one]
You can take the money, you can take the ride
You can take it all but never get inside
You can’t take my honor, you can’t take my soul
You can’t take the fact you’ll never have control
[Pre-Chorus]
YOU WON’T BREAK ME
NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY
YOU CAN’T SHAKE ME DOWN
I’M FUCKING BULLETPROOF
[Chorus]
All I’ve learned, ITS LIKE POISON
All I’ve done, INSIDE MY VEINS
All I’ve seen, ITS LIKE VENOM
All I know, IT’S ALL THAT REMAINS
[Verse two]
You can keep the fortune, and you can have the fame
You can have the shit you never will obtain
You can’t take my virtue, no you can’t take my pride
You can’t take the anger building up inside
[Pre-Chorus]
YOU WON’T BREAK ME
NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY
YOU CAN’T SHAKE ME DOWN
I’M FUCKING BULLETPROOF

All I’ve learned, ITS LIKE POISON
All I’ve done, INSIDE MY VEINS
All I’ve seen, ITS LIKE VENOM
All I know, IT’S ALL THAT REMAINS
No One Gets Left Behind
[Verse one]
NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND ANOTHER FALLEN SOUL
NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND ANOTHER BROKEN HOME
NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND WE STAND AND FIGHT TOGETHER
NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND OR WE ALL DIE ALONE
Politicians bathing in their greed
No idea on how to be all they can be
[Chorus]
Have you no honor Have you no soul
What is it they’re dying for Do you really even know
Have you no backbone Have you no spine
Whatever happened to NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND
[Verse two]
NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND I KNOW YOU MADE IT UP
NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND IT’S WAR FOR MONEY
NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND DRINK FROM THE GOLDEN CUP
NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND YOUR TIME IS COMING
Play your war games with other people’s lives
It should be you on the front line
[Chorus]
Have you no honor Have you no soul
What is it they’re dying for Do you really even know
Have you no backbone Have you no spine
Whatever happened to NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND
Have you no honor Have you no soul
What is it they’re dying for Do you really even know
Have you no backbone Have you no spine
Whatever happened to NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND
[Outro]
NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND
NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND
NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND
NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND
NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND
Crossing Over
[Verse one]
All perched alone he sits there broken
An eldered man with storm clouds setting in his eyes
He counts the sands of time remembering days gone by
It seemed like yesterday before it washed away
[Chorus]
Hey don’t wait for me there
Just find your own way
Hey don’t wait for me there
Cause I’ll be there soon enough
[Verse two]
The widow’s life ticks out like clockwork
A thousand tears she’s cried a hundred times before
But now that he is gone, she’s ready to move on
It all just fell away, it seems like yesterday
[Chorus]
Hey don’t wait for me there
Just find your own way
Hey don’t wait for me there
Cause I’ll be there soon enough
I’ll be there soon enough
Hey don’t wait for me there
Just find your own way
Hey don’t wait for me there
Cause I’ll be there soon enough
Burn It Down
[Verse one]
You think you know me
You don’t know shit
I’ve seen the world through your eyes
And it makes me sick
I question all of your answers
They’re fuckin’ lies
I won’t conform to your system
I’d rather die
[Chorus]
I burn it down
Just to watch it go
I burn it down
So everybody knows
I burn it down
Just to see it torched
I burn it down
I hate it to the core
[Verse two]
Think you’re a martyr?
Not hard to see
You wanna rule the fuckin’ world?
You gotta get through me
Your iron fist will be broken
No soul to sell
You think I’ll burn for my actions
See you in hell
[Chorus]
Burn it down
I do it for myself
I burn it down
For me and no one else
I burn it down
Just to watch it go
I burn it down
I hate you fuckin’ all
I burn it down
Just to watch it go
I burn it down
So everybody knows
I burn it down
Just to see it torched
I burn it down
I hate it to the core
Far From Home
[Verse one]
Another day in this carnival of souls
Another night settles in as quickly as it goes
The memories of shadows, ink on the page
And I can’t seem to find my way home
[Chorus]
And it’s almost like
Your heaven’s trying everything
Your heaven’s trying everything
To keep me out
[Verse two]
All the places I’ve been and things I’ve seen
A million stories that made up a million shattered dreams
The faces of people I’ll never see again
And I can’t seem to find my way home
[Chorus]
Cause it’s almost like
Your heaven’s trying everything to break me down
Cause it’s almost like
Your heaven’s trying everything to keep me out
Cause it’s almost like
Your heaven’s trying everything to break me down
Cause it’s almost like
Your heaven’s trying everything
Your heaven’s trying everything to break me down
To break me down
To break me down
[Outro]
Your heaven’s trying everything
Your heaven’s trying everything to break me down
Falling In Hate
[Verse one]
Falling in hate with you
More and more everyday
Falling away from this in every way
Is it right is it wrong
You and I don’t belong
[Chorus]
Falling in hate nothing to say don’t want to hear you
Falling away nothing to give no
Falling in hate nothing but fear in you heart
Falling away nothing to live for
[Verse two]
To you its a game to me its a joke
A mile to hang by with one inch of rope
Is it wrong is it right
You and I day and night
[Chorus]
Falling in hate nothing to say don’t want to hear you
Falling away nothing to give no
Falling in hate nothing but fear in you heart
Falling away nothing to live for
[Verse three]
Despite what you think of me
And despite what you say
I gave you everything
And you threw it away
[Chorus]
Falling in hate nothing to say don’t want to hear you
Falling away nothing to give no
Falling in hate nothing but fear in you heart
Falling away nothing to live for
My Own Hell
[Verse one]
Twisting and turning unable to sleep
DO THE VOICES EVER STOP
My thoughts speak louder the more I resist
AND THEY’RE DRIVING ME INSANE
DO THEY EVER GO
[Chorus]
Inside I’m a danger to myself
I’M A DANGER TO MYSELF
Inside I’m a prisoner of my own hell
MY OWN HELL
[Verse two]
Losing the battle I’ve waged on myself
LOCK ME UP AND TOSS THE KEY
Toys in the attic it’s all getting worse
WHY WON’T I LET ME BE OH GOD MAKE IT STOP
[Chorus]
Inside I’m a danger to myself
I’M A DANGER TO MYSELF
Inside I’m a prisoner of my own hell
MY OWN HELL
[Breakdown]
FIT ME FOR A STRAIGHT JACKET
PUT ME IN A PADDED CELL
I’M A DANGER TO YOU ALL
And I’m a danger to myself
[Chorus]
Inside I’m a danger to myself
I’M A DANGER TO MYSELF
Inside I’m a prisoner of my own hell
MY OWN HELL
Inside I’m a danger to myself
I’M A DANGER TO MYSELF
Inside I’m a prisoner of my own hell
MY OWN HELL
Walk Away
[Verse one]
I’m sorry for the demon I’ve become
You should be sorry for the angel you are not
I apologize for the cruel things that I did
But I don’t regret one single word I said
[Chorus]
Just walk away make it easy on yourself
Just walk away please release me from this hell
Just walk away there’s just nothing left to feel
Just walk away pretend that none of this is real
[Verse two]
Could you forgive me if I told you that I cared?
Would you be sorry if I swore that I’d be there?
Please forgive me for laughing when you fall
I’m so sorry but I never cared at all
[Chorus]
Just walk away make it easy on yourself
Just walk away please release me from this hell
Just walk away there’s just nothing left to feel
Just walk away pretend that none of this is none of this is
Just walk away make it easy on us both
Just walk away there was never any hope
Just walk away you already know the deal
Just walk away, pretend that none of this was, none of this was real
Bad Company
[Verse one]
A company
Always on the run
A destiny
Oh it’s the rising sun
I was born
A shotgun in my hands
Behind the gun
I’ll make my final stand, yeah!
[Chorus]
And that’s why they call me
Bad company
I can’t deny
Bad bad company ’til the day I die
Until the day I die
Until the day I die
[Verse two]
Rebel souls
Deserters we’ve been called
Chose a gun
And threw away the sun
Now these towns
Well, they all know our name
The death punch sound
Is our claim to fame
[Chorus]
And that’s why they call me
Bad company
I can’t deny
Bad bad company ’til the day I die
Until the day I die
Until the day I die
Until the day I die
[Breakdown]
Eye for an eye
Tooth for a tooth
Blood for blood
We’ve all gotta die
We’ve all gotta die
[Chorus]
And that’s why they call me
Bad company
I won’t deny
Bad bad company ’til the day I die
Bad company
I won’t deny
Bad bad company ’til the day I die
Until the day I die
Until the day I die
Until the day I die
Until the day I die
War Is The Answer
[Verse one]
This ain’t a test, fuck the rest. Time to set the record straight.
Talk your shit behind my back, let’s hear you say it to my face.
I’ve heard the words fall out your lips, you little trendy fuckin’ bitch!
The time has come to get you some, cause I just do not give a shit.
[Chorus]
Do you take me for a fool!?
How’s it feel to be a tool!?
See to me you’re just a cancer!
Motherfucker, war is the answer!
[Verse two]
As of now the end begins, I want to laugh but there’s no joke.
To eat with the beasts and run with the wolves on the ashes you must choke.
I know it’s got to chap your ass, to think I just won’t go away.
Affects me not, I’m writing you off, I’ve got nothing more to say.
[Chorus]
Do you take me for a fool!?
How’s it feel to be a tool!?
To me you’re just a cancer!
Motherfucker, war is the answer!
(Get some!)
[Breakdown]
You wanna disrespect me, you little fuckin’ punk?
Everything I’ve done to be who I am, as far as I’ve fuckin’ come.
I’ll slap you so fuckin’ hard, it’ll feel like you kissed a freight train.
Fuck you!
[Chorus]
Do you take me for a fool!?
How’s it feel to be a tool!?
Talking shit behind my back.
See to me you’re just a cancer!
The time has come to get you some.
Motherfucker, war is the answer!

It’s not enough
It’s not enough
It never was or will be
I never got the chance to say
(FUCK YOU)
[Verse one]
I don’t want to be your tourniquet

Don’t wanna be your Romeo
Because you’re no Goddamn Juliet
(you always did know just what to say; insult and injury)
(YOU JUST LOVE TO HATE ME!)

It’s not enough
It’s not enough

You’ve got a gun

It never was or will be
I never had a chance to thank you
(FOR RIPPING OUT MY HEART)
It’s not enough
It’s not enough
It never was or will be
I never got the chance to say

Undone (Bonus Track)
[Verse one]
Sometimes the things get so jaded
Still my heart slowly beats
Sometimes life gets complicated
Still the world around me sleeps
[Chorus]
I’m ashamed, not to blame
Don’t wanna think about it
Who I am, what I’ve done
How do I carry on?
Wanna change, turn the page
Don’t wanna think about it
How do I undo what’s done?
Undo what’s done!
[Verse two]
Sometimes the things get so faded
How is it that you can’t see?
Sometimes life seems overrated
Makes my heart slowly bleed
[Chorus]
I’m ashamed, not to blame
Don’t wanna think about it
Who I am, What I’ve done
How do I carry on?
Wanna change, turn the page
Don’t wanna think about it
How do I undo what’s done?
Undo what’s done!
Undo what’s done!
I’m ashamed, not to blame
Don’t wanna think about it
Who I am, What I’ve done
How do I carry on?
Wanna change, turn the page
Don’t wanna think about it
How do I undo what’s done?
I’m ashamed, not to blame
Don’t wanna think about it
Who I am, What I’ve done
How do I carry on?
Wanna change, turn the page
Don’t wanna think about it
How do I undo what’s done?

Under & Over It
Yeah, go!
[Verse one]
Did you hear the one about me being a punk?
Did you hear the one about me being a drunk?
Did you hear the one about me losing my nerve?
Or how I’m just another fucking sheep in the herd?
Did you hear about the money, how it made me change?
So funny to me, all the time that they waste.
Did you hear the one about me giving a shit?
‘Cause if I ever did I don’t remember it.
[Chorus]
You can be me and I will be you.
You can live just like a star.
I’ll take my sanity, you take the fame.
I’m under and over it all.
(I’m under and over it.)
[Verse two]
Did you hear the one about me playing the game?
Selling my soul and changing my name.
Did you hear the one about me being a prick?
Did you know I don’t care? You can suck my…
Did you hear the one about me trying to die?
Fist in the air and a finger to the sky.
Do I care if you hate me? Do you wanna know the truth?
C’est la vie….adiós….good riddance….fuck you!
[Chorus]
You can be me and I will be you.
You can live just like a star.
I’ll take my sanity, you take the fame.
I’m under and over it all.
(I’m under and over it.)
I, I, I’m under and over it.
I, I, I’m under and over it.
You can be me and I will be you.
You can live just like a star.
I’ll take my sanity, you take the fame.
I’m under and over it all.
(I’m under and over it.)
I’m under and over it all.
(I’m under and over it.)
I, I, I’m under and over it.
I, I, I’m under and over it.

Coming Down
[Verse one]
It’s caving in around me
What I thought was solid ground
I tried to look the other way
But I couldn’t turn around
It’s OK for you to hate me
For all the things I’ve done
I’ve made a few mistakes
But I’m not the only one
[Pre-chorus]
Step away from the ledge
I’m coming down
[Chorus]
I could never be
What you want me to
You pull me under
To save yourself
(Save yourself)
You will never see
What’s inside of me
I pull you under just to save myself
[Verse two]
Was there ever any question
On how much I could take?
You kept feeding me your bullshit
Hoping I would break
Is there anybody out there?
Is there anyone who cares?
Is there anybody listening?
Will they hear my final prayers?
[Pre-chorus]
Step away from the ledge
I’m coming down
[Chorus]
I could never be
What you want me to
You pull me under
To save yourself
(Save yourself)
You will never see
What’s inside of me
I pull you under just to save myself
(Save myself)
[Breakdown]
It’s caving in around me
(Caving in)
It’s tearing me apart
(Tearing me)
It’s all coming down around me
(Coming down)
Does anyone
Anyone
Care at all?
I will never be
What you want me to
You pull me under
I pull you under
[Chorus]
I could never be
What you want me to
You pull me under
To save yourself
(Save yourself)
You will never see
What’s inside of me
I pull you under just to save myself
Menace
Ohhhhh yeah, fuck it!

[Verse one]
Ohhhhh
I’ve got a killer’s blood
Running deep inside my veins
(Down in my veins)
Don’t expect you to understand
I was born without a name
(No name)
I see right through you, your opinions are a fucking joke
(hahaha)
I crucify you, on a silver spoon I hope you choke
[Chorus]
I’m tired of trying to please the world that spins around me
This time I’m doing it for me and me alone
I don’t need anyone, don’t think I ever did
Not trying to be selfish, just doing what I know
I’m a menace!
Right!
[Verse two]
Ohhhhh
I’ll fade the fuck away
Swear to God that I don’t care
(I swear to Christ)
I’ll die a lonely death cause I know that life ain’t fair
(It ain’t fair at all)
I can’t pretend that I am someone that I’m not
I live for me, myself
You can’t convince me that I’m wrong
[Chorus]
I’m tired of trying to please the world that spins around me
This time I’m doing it for me and me alone
I don’t need anyone, don’t think I ever did
Not trying to be selfish, just doing what I know
I’m a menace!
Right!
Yeah!
[Chorus]
I’m tired of trying to please the world that spins around me

This time I’m doing it for me and me alone

Fucking menace!
Ohhh menace!
Generation Dead
[Verse one]
I look around and all I see is evil
Walking dead disguised as real people
It’s kill or be killed ’cause life is not forever
It comes apart and then it falls together
[Pre-Chorus]
I am what you made me
‘Til death do I part
[Chorus]
It’s the world I’ve grown to know
Unforgiving and so cold
Take it away
Take it away
I don’t want it
It’s a life I’m forced to live
I’ve got nothing more to give
Take it away
Take it away
I don’t want it anymore
We’re generation dead
We’re dead
[Verse two]
You see yourself as such a fucking shepherd
But you trip the blind and then you curse the leper
Do you really want my true opinion?
You’ve taken more than you’ve ever given
[Pre-chorus]
You are what you are
Until death do you part
[Chorus]
It’s the world I’ve grown to know
Unforgiving and so cold
Take it away
Take it away
I don’t want it
It’s a life I’m forced to live
I’ve got nothing more to give
Take it away
Take it away
I don’t want it anymore
Generation dead
[Breakdown]
It’s the world I’ve grown to know
Unforgiving and so cold
Take it away
Take it away
I don’t want it
It’s a life I’m forced to live
I’ve got nothing more to give
Take it away
Take it away
I don’t want it anymore
[Chorus]
It’s the world I’ve grown to know
Unforgiving and so cold
Take it away
Take it away
I don’t want it
It’s a life I’m forced to live
I’ve got nothing more to give
Take it away
Take it away
I don’t want it anymore
We’re generation dead
We’re dead
Back For More
[Verse one]
Let’s get it on!
It’s time to get in the game,
You gotta fight ’til it hurts and then you do it again
Let’s tear it up!
I’m staying straight to the core, ain’t no room for second place, go big or go home!
[Pre-chorus]
Rise!
It’s dog eat dog
Rise!
Man versus beast
Rise!
The strong will survive
Rise!
I’ve got no time for the weak
[Chorus]
It’s time to rise up, man up, get back up, never been and won’t be broken
Dust off and then come back for more
You’ve gotta reach down, dig deep, and break ground,
Show them all you won’t be beaten
Brush it off and then come back for more!
Come back for more
[Verse two]
It’s do or die!
Time to settle the score, gotta give it all you got and then you give it some more
There will be blood
You’ve gotta fight ’til you break, talk a lot of trash now step up to the plate
[Pre-chorus]
Rise!
Refuse to give in
Rise!
Ashes to dust
Rise!
Make ’em remember your name
Rise!
’cause in yourself you can trust
[Chorus]
It’s time to rise up, man up, get back up, never been and won’t be broken
Dust off and then come back for more
You’ve gotta reach down, dig deep, and break ground,
Show them all you won’t be beaten
Brush it off and then come back for more!
Come back for more
Rah!
It’s time to rise up, man up, get back up, never been and won’t be broken
Dust off and then come back for more
You’ve gotta reach down, dig deep, and break ground,
Show them all you won’t be beaten
Brush it off and then come back for more
Come back for more
Rah!
Remember Everything
[Verse one]
Dear mother, I love you
I’m sorry, I wasn’t good enough
Dear father, forgive me
‘Cause in your eyes, I just never added up
In my heart I know I failed you, but you left me here alone
[Chorus]
If I could hold back the rain, would you numb the pain?
‘Cause I remember everything.
If I could help you forget, would you take my regrets?
‘Cause I remember everything.
[Verse two]
Dear brother, just don’t hate me
For never standing by you or being by your side
Dear sister, please don’t blame me
I only did what I thought was truly right
It’s a long and lonely road, when you know you walk alone
[Chorus]
If I could hold back the rain, would you numb the pain?
‘Cause I remember everything.
If I could help you forget, would you take my regrets?
‘Cause I remember everything.
[Breakdown]
I feel like running away
I’m still so far from home
You say that I’ll never change
But what the fuck do you know?
I’ll burn it all to the ground before I let you in
Please forgive me, I can’t forgive you now.
I remember everything.
[Chorus]
If I could hold back the rain, would you numb the pain?
‘Cause I remember everything.
If I could help you forget, would you take my regrets?
‘Cause I remember everything.
[Outro]
It all went by so fast
I still can’t change the past
I always will remember everything
If we could start again,
Would that have changed the end?
We remember everything, everything.
Wicked Ways
[Verse one]
I should have seen this
From a mile away
I should’ve never let you get that deep inside
You’re an actress
I can’t believe a word
You’d say anything to get anywhere in life
Stumble back to where you came from
[Chorus]
Wide awake and falling on your face
You’ve got an evil wicked way
Of saying I love you, I’d love to
Tear away from everything you are
You’ve got an evil wicked way about you, I hate you!
[Verse two]
Like a virus
That spread throughout my veins
You’re incurable and such a waste of time
You’re an angel
But only in your head,
You’d hurt anyone
To get anything in life
Slither back to where you came from
[Chorus]
Wide awake and falling on your face
You’ve got an evil wicked way
Of saying I love you, I’d love to
Tear away from everything you are
You’ve got an evil wicked way about you, I hate you!
[Breakdown]
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are? (so cold)
Who do you think you are? (so cold)
Who do you think you are? (so cold)
Who do you think you are?
[Chorus]
Wide awake and falling on your face
You’ve got an evil wicked way
Of saying I love you, I’d love to
Tear away from everything you are
You’ve got an evil wicked way about you, I hate you!
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
If I Fall
[Verse one]
I owe you nothing
I’ve given everything and more
I stand for something
The blood on my hands, the broken bones, I live it
[Pre-chorus]
Knife in my back, you can’t take it back
Eye for an eye – it’s cut and dry
I’ll do what I know, reap what I sow
While you’re waiting for me to fail
[Chorus]
(If I fall)
If I fall, if I fall
I’m dragging everybody down
If I fall I will take everybody down
(If I fall)
If I fall, if I fall
I’m taking everybody out
If I fall I will take everybody down
[Verse two]
I’m not a voice of reason
Never been too big on fate
Seeing is believing
You run from it all, you stumble and crawl, I hate it
[Pre-chorus]
Knife in your back, I won’t take it back
Live and let die, the art of a lie
You do what you know, you reap what you sow
I’ll be waiting for you to fail
[Chorus]
(If I fall)
If I fall, if I fall
I’m dragging everybody down
If I fall I will take everybody down
(If I fall)
If I fall, if I fall
I’m taking everybody out
If I fall I will take everybody down
Heeeyyyahh [x5]
[Breakdown]
If I fall, if I fall
I’m taking everybody down
If I fall I will!
[Chorus]
(If I fall)
If I fall, if I fall
I’m dragging everybody down
If I fall I will take everybody down
(If I fall)
If I fall, fuck you all
I’m taking everybody out
If I fall I will take everybody down
(If I fall, if I fall, if I fall)
If I fall I will
100 Ways To Hate
[Verse one]
Hate your goddamn, motherfucking, shitty ass band
Hate the way you’ve got my back while you’re holding out your hand
Hate the way you pussies talk shit, hiding on the web
Just the fact you think you know me makes me fucked up in the head
Hate your nails, hate your hair, hate the fact I even care
Hate the way you said you loved me but you fucking weren’t there
Hate your friends, hate your folks, it’s a stupid fuckin’ hoax
Hate the way I tried to change when the whole thing was a joke
[Pre-chorus]
I… hate… you…
That’s an understatement
I… hate… you…
For who you are
[Chorus]
I hate you
And all you stand for
I don’t care
Anymore
I gave you
100 chances
You gave me
A hundred ways to hate
[Verse two]
Hate your face, hate your lies and the blank look in your eyes
Hate your needs, hate your wants, hate the way you love to taunt
Hate your voice, makes me cringe every time I hear you speak
It’s uncomfortable to know you share the same air as me
Hate your lack of common sense and I’m tired of compromising
Take a good look at the end, ’cause it’s just on the horizon
I’ve been wrong about a lot of shit, this I know is true
There’s a hundred fucking things that I hate about you
[Pre-chorus]
I… hate… you…
That’s an understatement
I… hate… you…
For who you are
[Chorus]
I hate you
And all you stand for
I don’t care
Anymore
I gave you
100 chances
You gave me
A hundred ways to hate
I hate you
100 ways
I don’t care
100 ways to hate
I gave you
A million chances
You gave me
A hundred ways to hate
A hundred ways
A hundred ways to hate
The Tragic Truth (iTunes Bonus Track)
[Verse one]
I’m drowning in the bottom of a bottle.
Running from a man I swore I’d never be.
No one ever has to face tomorrow.
But I’m the one that has to face me.
[Pre-chorus]
It’s the demons I’ve created for myself.
The tragic truth.
It’s hard for me to understand myself.
So it has to be hard as hell for you! (For you! You!)
[Chorus]
Are we born to be broken, sinners, and thieves?
Someone tell the heavens I’m ready to escape! (You!)
This is not what I wanted not what I need!
Take it all, tear it all, rip it all away!
[Verse two]
I can’t say the Devil made me do it.
I chose to be the one I am, the way I am today.
I wish there was but there’s no way around it.
In the end I made the choice and will not die ashamed.
[Pre-chorus]
It’s the voices screaming in my head.
The tragic truth.
It’s hard for me to understand myself.
So it has to be hard as hell for you! (You! You!)
[Chorus]
Are we born to be broken, sinners, and thieves?
Someone tell the heavens I’m ready to escape! (You!)
This is not what I wanted not what I need!
Take it all, tear it all, rip it all away!
Take it all, tear it all, take it all, tear it all away!
Are we born to be broken, sinners, and thieves?
Someone tell the heavens I’m ready to escape! (You!)
This is not what I wanted not what I need!
Take it all, tear it all, rip it all away! (Away!)
Are we born to be broken, sinners, and thieves?
Someone tell the heavens I’m ready to escape! (You!)
This is not what I wanted not what I need!
Take it all, tear it all, rip it all away!
Take it all, tear it all, rip it all, tear it all! (It all away)
Someone tell the heavens to take it all, tear it all away!
The Wrong Side of Heaven & the Righteous Side of Hell, Volume 1
Five Finger Death Punch lyrics to all songs featured on The Wrong Side of Heaven & the Righteous Side of Hell, Volume 1Lift Me Up
[Verse one]
It ain’t no mystery
I’m all I have left
I’m pushing back and running you over
I’ve been thrown down run around
Beaten ’til I hit the ground
Telling you right now that it’s over
There’s no room for mistakes
All the parts are in place
Say what you will but say it to my face
[Pre-chorus]
Better back the fuck up
Better shut the fuck up
I’ll do what I want and I’ll never give up
I won’t be broken
I won’t be tortured
I won’t be beaten down
I have the answer
I take the pressure
I turn it all around
[Chorus]
Lift me up above this
The flames and the ashes
Lift me up and help me to fly away
Lift me up above this
The broken the empty
Lift me up and help me to fly away
Lift me up
[Verse two – Rob Halford]
I’m gonna change history
Enlighten the world
Teach them how to see through my eyes
I’m gonna lash back check that
Fatal as a heart attack
Stomp out all the ugliest lies
You can’t convince me to change
We ain’t on the same page
I’ve had my fill now there’s nothing but rage
Best get out of my way
‘Cause there’s nothing to say
Is that all that you got?
Because I ain’t got all day
[Pre-chorus]
I won’t be broken
I won’t be tortured
I won’t be beaten down
I have the answer
I take the pressure
I turn it all around
[Chorus]
Lift me up above this
The flames and the ashes
Lift me up and help me to fly away
Lift me up above this
The broken the empty
Lift me up and help me to fly away
Lift me up
I won’t be broken
I won’t be tortured
I won’t be beaten down
I have the answer
I take the pressure
I turn it all around
Lift me up above this
The flames and the ashes
Lift me up and help me to fly away
Lift me up above this
The broken the empty
Lift me up and help me to fly away
Lift me up to fly away
Lift me up to fly away
Lift me up
Watch You Bleed
[Verse one]
I’d give anything just to cut you free.
I’d give blood just to watch you,
(Just to watch you) BLEED!
I see through you and all your lies.
You are everything that I despise.
You won’t take shit when you leave.
What the hell do you want from me?
[Chorus]
I’m over it, so over it, this is goodbye!
I’d give anything just to cut you free.
I’d give blood just to make you,
Just to watch you BLEED!
[Verse two]
I know you better than you do.
I’m to fucking blame, so are you.
It won’t kill me to watch you leave.
What the fuck do you want from me?
I’m over it, so over it, this is goodbye.
[Chorus]
I’d give anything just to cut you free.
I’d give blood just to make you,
Just to watch you BLEED!

(Just to make you, Just to watch you)
BLEED
I’d give anything, just to cut you free.
I’d give blood, just to make you,
Just to watch you BLEED!
I’d give anything, just to cut you free.
I’d give blood, just to make you,
Just to watch you BLEED!
I’d give anything, just to cut you free.
I’d give blood, just to make you,
Just to watch you BLEED!
You
[Verse one]
I’m never gonna live,
Never gonna give
Never gonna die your way
Fuck. No! Go away
Never gonna try,
Never wonder why
Never gonna change
No, say it, what
Never understand,
Never gave a damn
Never see it through your eyes
Fuck you, no way
Never understand
Never lend a hand
Never see it through my eyes
[Pre-chorus]
There’s a fire within,
Hate to admit it, but I always knew
Violence and sin
Keeps me fearless
Keeps me from being…
[Chorus]
You – so dated
You – outdated
You – so fading away
You can’t take it
You just fake it
You are just in my way
I don’t give a fuck about you!
[Verse two]
I’m never gonna quit,
Never gave a shit
Never gonna walk away
Fuck you all day
Never gonna drop,
Never gonna stop
Never gonna fall
No, what, say it
Never understood,
Never really could
Never saw it through your eyes
Fuck off, no way
Never understand
Never give a damn
Never gonna change my mind
[Pre-chorus]
There’s a fire within,
Hate to admit it, but I always knew
Violence and sin
Keeps me fearless
Keeps me from being…
[Chorus]
You – so dated
You – outdated
You – so fading away
You can’t take it
You just fake it
You are just in my way
I don’t give a fuck about you!

Stand the fuck up!
I don’t give a fuck about…

You are just in my way
You – so dated
You – outdated
You – so fading away
You can’t take it
You just fake it
You are just in my way
I don’t give a fuck, don’t give a fuck, don’t give a fuck about you!
Wrong Side of Heaven
[Verse one]
I spoke to God today, and she said that she’s ashamed.
What have I become, what have I done?
I spoke to the Devil today, and he swears he’s not to blame.
And I understood, cause I feel the same.
[Chorus]
Arms wide open, I stand alone.
I’m no hero, and I’m not made of stone.
Right or wrong, I can hardly tell.
I’m on the wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side of hell.
The wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side, the righteous side of hell.
[Verse two]
I heard from God today, and she sounded just like me.
What have I done, and who have I become.
I saw the Devil today, and he looked a lot like me.
I looked away, I turned away!
[Chorus]
Arms wide open, I stand alone.
I’m no hero, and I’m not made of stone.
Right or wrong, I can hardly tell.
I’m on the wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side of hell.
The wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side, the righteous side of hell.
[Breakdown]
I’m not defending, downward descending,
Falling further and further away!
Getting closer every day!
I’m getting closer every day, to the end.
To the end, the end, the end,
I’m getting closer every day!
[Chorus]
Arms wide open, I stand alone.
I’m no hero, and I’m not made of stone.
Right or wrong, I can hardly tell.
I’m on the wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side of hell.
The wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side of hell.
The wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side, the righteous side of hell.
Burn MF
[Verse one]
My heart is frozen
My soul’s been broken
The whole world’s on my mother fuckin’ shoulders
and I can’t seem to control it
I can’t contain it
And I just don’t give a shit
You need to feel the way that I feel
but you’ll never fuckin’ know it
[Chorus]
Burn motherfucker burn motherfucker burn
You try but you can’t reach me

I’d live but you won’t let me
BURN
[Verse two]
Your life’s been wasted
You’ll die forsaken
You act like the world’s on your shoulders

Do you embrace it
How do you take it
I’ll never feel the way that you feel
I’d rather fucking break it
[Chorus]
Burn motherfucker burn motherfucker burn
You try but you can’t reach me
Burn motherfucker burn motherfucker burn
There is nothing you can’t teach me

I.M.SIN
[Verse one]
You’re a fucking poser, that’s all you’ll ever be!
Don’t get any closer, or you’ll meet the real me!
I am who I am, you can’t destroy me!
I am what I am, you can’t deny me!
[Chorus]
I want out, but I could never surrender.
Try and break me down, but I won’t let you win.
You can call me out, but I know you’re a pretender.
You may think you’re god, but I know that I am sin!
I am SIN! I am SIN!
I am SIN! I am SIN!
[Verse one]
I won’t fucking buy it!
I never have and I never will!
Keep fucking trying!
I’m just waiting for the blood to spill!
You are, who you are, I can’t explain it!
You are, what you are, to me you’re not shit.
No!
[Chorus]
I want out, but I could never surrender.
Try and break me down, but I won’t let you win.
You can call me out, but I know you’re a pretender.
You may think you’re god, but I know that I am sin!
I am SIN!
[Breakdown]
If there was ever a time you needed to walk the fuck away,
It’s right fucking now, right fucking here!
[Chorus]
I want out, but I could never surrender.
Try and break me down, but I won’t let you win.
You can call me out, but I know you’re a pretender.
You may think your god, but I know that I am sin!
I am SIN! I am SIN!
I am SIN! I am SIN!
Anywhere But Here
[Verse one]
Some say a storm is coming,
Some say the end is near,
Some think it’s all so hazy,
I think it’s all so clear.
If it all ends tomorrow,
If it all disappears
Where do you think you’re going?
Anywhere else but here!
[Pre-chorus]
I don’t claim to have the reasons!
All I know is
[Chorus]
If the world stops spinning tomorrow
I’d never shed a tear!
I’d rather be anywhere, anywhere, anywhere but here!
[Verse two]
Some say they have the answers,
Some say they know the truth,
Some people live in question,
Some people have no clue.
If there was no tomorrow,
If there was just today
Would you make different choices
Or would you stay the same?
[Pre-chorus]
I don’t claim to have the reasons!
All I know is
[Chorus]
If the world stops spinning tomorrow
I’d never shed a tear!
I’d rather be anywhere, anywhere, anywhere but here!
[Breakdown]
If there was no tomorrow,
If there was no tomorrow,
If there was no tomorrow
Would you stay, would you stay the same?
If there was no tomorrow,
If there was no tomorrow,
If there was no tomorrow
Would you stay, would you stay the same?
[Chorus]
If the world stops spinning tomorrow
I’d never shed a tear!
I’d rather be anywhere, anywhere, anywhere!
If the world stops spinning tomorrow
I’d never shed a tear!
I’d rather be anywhere, anywhere, anywhere but here!
Dot Your Eyes
Bring it!
[Verse one]
My life is perfect, so you believe.
Are you that stupid? ‘Cause I strongly disagree.
I’m not a martyr, more like a thief.
Your rules are twisted and they don’t affect me.
You saw me coming, so why you running?
What’s the matter, it’s just little old me.
I know your kind, you’re fucking blind.
I give a shit, don’t give a shit about anything.
[Chorus]
There ain’t nothing in this world for free.
There’s not a man, not a man I believe.
Give a rat’s ass what you think about me.
I’ll dot your eyes and cross your fucking teeth.
Bring it!
[Verse two]
You’re just a trend. It’s gonna end.
I stand in place while you mother fuckers bend.
You own a clock, your time is up.
You bottom feeders, it’s just time to give up.
Ready to throw down, this is a show down.
You get the memo, ‘Cause it’s all about to go down.
I know I’m twisted, I can’t resist it.
I give a shit, don’t give a shit about anything.
[Chorus]
There ain’t nothing in this world for free.
There’s not a man, not a man I believe.
Give a rat’s ass what you think about me.
I’ll dot your eyes and cross your fucking teeth.
Bring it!
There’s nothing in this world for me.
I gave away, gave away fucking everything.
This is the man that I’m choosing to be.
I’ll dot your eyes and cross your fucking teeth.
Bring it!
[Breakdown]
Pressure’s building breaking down.
Suffocating till I drown!
You know how the saying goes?
It’s not the size of the dog in the fight.
It’s the size of the fight in the dog.
Yeah, bring it!
[Chorus]
There ain’t nothing in this world for free.
There’s not a man, not a man I believe.
Give a rat’s ass what you think about me.
I’ll dot your eyes and cross your fucking teeth.
Bring it!
There’s nothing in this world for me.
I gave away, gave away fucking everything.
This is the man that I’m choosing to be.
I’ll dot your eyes and cross your fucking teeth.
Bring it!
M.I.N.E (End This Way)
[Verse one]
Everybody hurts
Everybody bleeds
Everybody bends to fill a need
Everybody’s born with their own curse
And I’m not alone
Everybody cries
Everybody breathes
Everybody wants to feel they’re free
Deep inside I know what I am worth
A life of my own
[Pre-chorus]
It could have been much worse
But it should have been better
[Chorus]
I know I’d hurt you, deserted you
And now I see it clear
I pulled you closer, tighter
‘Cause I knew you’d disappear
[Verse two]
I just can’t compromise, apologize
There’s nothing you can say
We both knew
It would always end this way
Everybody pains
Everybody grieves
Everybody’s making off like thieves
Every soul’s aching for release
You’re not alone
Everybody lives
Everybody leaves
Everybody begs best on their knees
Everybody’s got the same disease
No one’s alone
[Pre-chorus]
It could have been much worse
But it should have been better
[Chorus]
I know I’d hurt you, deserted you
And now I see it clear
I pulled you closer, tighter
‘Cause I knew you’d disappear
[Breakdown]
I just can’t compromise, apologize
There’s nothing you can say
We both knew
It’d always end this way
Knew it’d end this way
We knew it’d end this way
[Chorus]
I know I’d hurt you, deserted you
And now I see it clear
I pulled you closer, tighter
‘Cause I knew you’d disappear
I just can’t compromise, apologize
There’s nothing you can say
We both knew
It would always end this way
We both know
It’d always end this way
We both knew
It would always end this way
Mama Said Knock You Out
[Verse one]
Don’t call it a comeback
I been here for years
Rocking my peers
Putting suckers in fear
Making the tears rain down like a monsoon
Listen to the bass go bomb
Explosion, overpowering
Over the competition, we’re towering
Record? Shock
When I drop these lyrics that’ll make you call them cops (what)
Don’t you dare stare,
You better move (move)
Don’t ever compare us
To the rest that are all get sliced and diced
Competition paying our price
[Chorus]
I’m gonna knock you out
Mama said knock you out
[Repeat 4x]
[Verse two – TechN9ne]
Shadowboxing when I heard you on the radio
I just don’t know
What made you forget that I was raw?
But now I got a new toy
I’m going insane, starting a hurricane releasing pain
Letting you know you can’t gain or maintain
Unless you say my name
Rippin’, killin’, diggin’ and drillin’ a hole
Past your soul
[Chorus]
I’m gonna knock you out
Mama said knock you out
[Repeat 4x]
I’m gonna knock you out
Mama said knock you out
[Repeat 4x]
Mama said knock you out
[Repeat 4x]
Diary Of A Deadman
Looking back I still have so many questions
So many things unanswered
Like what did I do?
What could I do?
Was there ever a moment you cared?
Was I always ugly and abandoned?
Remembering all the times you wished me harm
You wished me dead
How could I have changed to make it better?
And would I?
Would I?
Why?
I still feel so much hate inside of me
Seems like you were just waiting for me to fail
I’m sorry I can’t forgive you
Do you blame me?
You never forgave me
I’ve tried to grow from this
Every day is a new challenge
Because with you there’s just no winning
Like it or not I’m still a part of you
And you’re still a part of me
Like it or not you’re still a part of me
Yeah
So this is how it ends
All the tears, all the blood
It’s all been for nothing
As the candle dwindles and flickers out
The end
The Wrong Side of Heaven & the Righteous Side of Hell, Volume 2
Five Finger Death Punch lyrics to all songs featured on The Wrong Side of Heaven & the Righteous Side of Hell, Volume 2Here To Die
[Verse one]
This wasn’t meant to be a love song,
Matter fact this one’s about hate.
I fuckin’ said it, I don’t regret it
A little much? You’re a little too late.
[Chorus]
I’ve turned away just one too many times
I’m tired of the reasons, sick of all the lies.
I looked away just one too many times
I’m tired of pretending, that I’m not here, I’m not here to die.
[Verse two]
You want my best, you get the worst
You’re not the last and you ain’t the fucking first
You die to live, I live to die.
Still that motherfucker finger’s in the sky.
[Chorus]
I’ve turned away just one too many times
I’m tired of the reasons, sick of all the lies.
I looked away just one too many times
I’m tired of pretending, that I’m not here, I’m not here to die.
[Breakdown]
I’ve been hated by better
I’ve been beaten by the best
It’s not a gift,
It’s a motherfucking test
[Chorus]
I’ve turned away just one too many times
I’m tired of the reasons, sick of all the lies.
I looked away just one too many times
I’m tired of pretending, that I’m not here, I’m not here to die, not here to die.
Weight Beneath My Sin
[Verse one]
You stole my life – you’ve taken everything
Left me here to die
You wonder why – I wish you’d suffocate
And kiss your ass goodnight
[Pre-chorus]
It’s the same old fucking story
The same old fucking lies
The same old fucking ending
With the fucking same good bye
I can’t believe…
[Chorus]
Now I know that
I don’t belong – I don’t care
You’re a scar burned into my skin
Can’t hold on – can’t move on
You’re the weight beneath my sin
[Verse two]
You wish I’d die – you don’t care how
And I know you don’t care why
Can’t see what you see – I know you’re
Begging me
Begging me to bleed

It’s the same old fucking story
The same old fucking lies
Without the same old ending
Without the same good byes
I can’t believe…

You’re a scar burned into my skin
Can’t hold on – can’t move on
You’re the weight beneath my…. SINNNNN

Now I know that
I don’t belong – I don’t care
You’re a scar burned into my skin
Can’t hold on – can’t move on
You’re the weight beneath my sin
Can’t hold on – can’t move on
You’re the weight beneath my sin
Wrecking Ball

Sliced up – shot down
Everybody bows down
Kill em all – let em fall
God’ll sort em out
Ripped up – zip it up
Really never gave a fuck
Wrecking ball – fuck em all
Never had a doubt
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m – never gonna be the one to

I’m – always do what I do
Sick of all the bullshit

Why – should I
Always be the one to back away
Why – should I
Have to be the one to not say what’s on my mind
I’m a mother fuckin’ wrecking
I’m a mother fuckin’ wrecking ball
[Verse one]
Take down – ground and pound
That’s the resolution
Show face – disgrace
A scar of evolution
Nice boots – cheap suit
You’re about to find out
Right here – right now
That’s what I’m about
[Pre-chorus]

I’m – always gonna say the shit that
I’m – always gonna hold a grudge

Battle Born
[Verse one]
Once upon a time
I swore I had a heart
Long before the world I know
Tore it all apart
Once upon a time
There was a part of me I shared
Years before they took away
The part of me that cared
[Chorus]
I’ve been a thousand places
And shook a million hands
I don’t know where I’m going
But I know just where I’ve been
I’ve flown a million miles
And I’ve rode so many more
Everyday a castaway
A vagabond battle born
I’m battle born
[Verse two]
Once upon a time
I had an open point of view
But that was just so long ago
Before I had a clue
Was there such a time
Where I didn’t stand alone
Was there ever a time
And how would I have known
[Chorus]
Been a thousand places
And shook a million hands
I don’t know where I’m going
But I know just where I’ve been
I’ve flown a million miles
And I’ve rode so many more
Everyday a castaway
A vagabond battle born
[Breakdown]
Attention all passengers
Flight 555 now departing from Las Vegas to London
Please have your passports and boarding passes ready
{Chorus]
I’ve been a thousand places
And shook a million hands
I don’t know where I’m going
But I know just where I’ve been
I’ve flown a million miles
And I’ve rode so many more
Everyday a castaway
A vagabond battle born
Been a thousand places
And shook a million hands
I don’t know where I’m going
But I know just where I’ve been
I’ve flown a million miles
And I’ve rode so many more
Everyday a castaway
A vagabond battle born
[Outro]
I’m battle born
I’m battle born
Everyday a castaway
A vagabond battle born
Battle born
Cradle To The Grave
[Verse one]
The blood that runs within my veins
(the blood that runs within my veins)
Keeps me from ever ending up the same
(ending up the same)
The fire that’s pushing me on and on and on
(on and on and on)
To me it’s everything and it makes me fucking strong
[Pre-chorus]
Love me or hate me
I walk alone
[Chorus]
Been called a monster, called a demon, called a freak
(called a freak)
I’m not an idol, not an angel, not a saint
(I’m not a saint)
I walk alone, I always have, I’m not ashamed
(not ashamed)
A living nightmare from the cradle to the grave
[Verse two]
The soul that lives within my chest
(the soul that lives within my chest)
Just won’t allow me to turn out like the rest
(turn out like the rest)
This heart that’s driving me on and on and on
(on and on and on)
Has the same vision and it keeps me fucking strong
[Pre-chorus]
Love me or hate me
I walk alone
[Chorus]
Been called a monster, called a demon, called a freak
(called a freak)
I’m not an idol, not an angel, not a saint
(I’m not a saint)
I walk alone, I always have, I’m not ashamed
(not ashamed)
I’ve always been a living nightmare from the cradle to the grave
I walk alone
Been called a monster, called a demon, called a freak
(called a freak)
I’m not an idol, not an angel, not a saint
(I’m not a saint)
I walk alone, I always have, I’m not ashamed
(not ashamed)
A living nightmare from the cradle to the grave
(I walk alone)
Been called a monster, called a demon, called a freak
(called a freak)
I’m not an idol, not an angel, not a saint
(I’m not a saint)
I walk alone, I always have, I’m not ashamed
(not ashamed)
I’ll always be a living nightmare from the cradle to the grave
Matter Of Time
[Verse one]
What kind of man would I be
If I accepted defeat
What would my eulogy read
Here lies a wasted soul
What would my destiny be
What sort of life would I lead
Consumed by apathy
Spinning out of control
[Chorus]
It’s how we live
How we live that defines us
What we change
And what we leave behind
You know you can’t
You can’t take it with you
Your day will come
It’s just a matter of time
[Verse two]
What type of man should I be
You know – so you tell me
Stomp out my identity
So I can be just like you
What kind of life should I lead
You’d have me down on my knees
Treat me like I’m the disease
Fuck you
[Chorus]
It’s how we live
How we live that defines us
What we change
And what we leave behind
You know you can’t
You can’t take it with you
Your day will come
It’s just a matter of time
It’s how we live
How we live that defines us
What we change
And what we leave behind
You know you can’t
You can’t take it with you
Your day will come
It’s just a matter of time
Cold
[Verse one]
I’m gazing upward, a world I can’t embrace
There’s only thorns and splinters, venom in my veins
It’s okay to cry out, when it’s driving you insane
But somehow someday, I’ll have to face the pain
[Chorus]
It’s all gone cold…
But no one wants the blame
It’s all so wrong…
But who am I, who am I to say?
[Verse two]
I’m begging for forgiveness, everything I’ve done
If God is listening, He knows I’m not the only one
It’s okay to lash out from the rules that I’m enslaved
But somehow someday, I’ll have to turn the page
[Chorus]
It’s all gone cold…
And no one wants to change
It’s all so wrong…
But no one wants the blame
It’s all gone cold…
There’s nothing left to gain
It’s all so wrong…
But who am I, who am I to say?
[Breakdown]
My heart’s an endless winter filled with rage
I’m looking forward to forgetting yesterday
[Chorus]
It’s all gone cold…
And no one wants to change
It’s all so wrong…
But no one wants the blame
It’s all gone cold…
There’s nothing left to gain
It’s all so wrong…
But who am I, who am I to say?
To say
It’s all gone cold…
But who am I to say?
It’s all gone cold…
But who am I, who am I to say?
Cold…
Let This Go
[Verse one]
It’s such an ugly thing
The way you treated me
I should have walked away
Never to look back
It’s all still haunting me
I’m still in disbelief
A broken memory
Fading into black
[Pre-chorus]
I could save you
But I fucking hate you
There’s no escaping it
you’re never gonna fucking see
You don’t know me
And you don’t own me
And you can’t control me
It’s only in your fucking dreams
[Chorus]
I don’t know
When I lost it all – when I lost control
I don’t know
If I can ever let this – ever let this go
[Verse two]
There’s nothing you could say
To make me want to change
You should have walked away
Now you fucking run
It’s all just such a waste
The time you stole from me
And now you’re on your knees
Look into the gun
[Pre-chorus]
I won’t save you
I fucking hate you
There’s no escaping it
I’m never gonna fucking see
I don’t know you
And I don’t want to
You’re uncontrollable
A nightmare not a fucking dream
[Chorus]
I don’t know
When I lost it all – when I lost control
I don’t know
If I can ever let this – ever let this go
I don’t know
If I can ever let this
Ever let it go
I don’t know
(I don’t know if I can)
(I don’t know when I lost)
When I lost it all – when I lost control
I don’t know
(I’ll never let this go)
(I’ll never let it go)
If I can ever let this – ever let this go
My Heart Lied
[Verse one]
Another chapter in my life
The sun has set, only ashes left behind
It turns out I was always wrong
I always have been, and you knew it all along
I knew it all along
[Chorus]
I gave you everything, everything but blood
Everything I had, and everything I’ve loved
You tore away and left me dead inside
Outside looking in, my heart lied
[Verse two]
A whole new chapter in my life
A new beginning, can you see it through my eyes?
It turns out you’re not always right
You never have been, and I knew it all the time
You knew it all the time
[Chorus]
I gave you everything, everything but blood
Everything I had, and everything I’ve loved
You tore away and left me dead inside
Outside looking in, my heart lied
I gave you everything, everything but blood
Everything I had, and everything I’ve loved
You tore away and left me dead inside
Outside looking in, my heart lied
I gave you everything, everything but blood
Everything I had, and everything I’ve loved
You tore away and left me dead inside
Outside looking in, my heart lied
Outside looking in, my heart lied
A Day In My Life
[Verse one]
Another day in my life
I live and die by the knife
I swear there’s nothing inside
Sometimes I wish it would end
How many hands could I shake
How many smiles must I fake
How many miles till I break
To start all over again
[Pre-chorus]
That’s not what I was promised
That’s not me
[Chorus]
Feels like I’m falling away
Getting deeper and deeper everyday
Like nothing has changed or ever will
It seems like I’m going insane
Getting farther and farther everyday
I just swallow the pain
And always will
Welcome to a day in my life
Welcome to a day in my fucking life!
[Verse two]
Unleashed the beast from its cage
Feel like a puppet on stage
It only adds to the rage
I’m sick of trying to pretend
They think I’m something I’m not
I give them all that I got
Feels like I’m sold to be bought
It starts all over again
[Pre-chorus]
That’s not what I was promised
That’s not me
[Chorus]
Feels like I’m falling away
Getting deeper and deeper everyday
Like nothing has changed or ever will
It seems like I’m going insane
Getting farther and farther everyday
I just swallow the pain
And always will
Welcome to a day in my life
Welcome to a day in my fucking life!
[Breakdown]
It feels like I’m falling away
I’m getting deeper and deeper everyday
Like nothing has changed or ever will
[Chorus]
It seems like I’m going insane
Getting farther and farther everyday
I just swallow the pain
And always will
I just swallow the pain
And always will
Welcome to a day in my life
Welcome to a day in my fucking life!

And, God, I know I’m oneMy mother was a tailor

You’re getting colder

Jekyll & Hyde
[Verse one]
There’s just so much God damned weight on my shoulders
All I’m trying to do is live my motherfucking life
Supposed to be happy, but I’m only getting colder
Wear a smile on my face, but there’s a demon inside
There’s just so much God damned weight on my shoulders
All I’m trying to do is live my motherfucking life
Supposed to be happy, but I’m only getting colder
Wear a smile on my face, but there’s a demon inside
[Chorus]
Oh, yo, yo, there’s a demon inside
Oh, yo, yo, just like Jekyll and Hyde
Oh, yo, yo, all this anger inside
Oh, yo, yo, I feel like Jekyll and Hyde
[Verse two]
There’s just so much God damned weight on your shoulders
That you can’t just live your motherfucking life
The story’s getting old and my heart is getting colder
I just wanna be Jekyll, but I’m always fighting Hyde
You’ve got rocks in your head, I can hear them rolling ’round
You can say that you’re above it, but you’re always falling down
Is there a method to your madness? Is it all about pride?
Everyone I know, they’ve got a demon inside
[Chorus]
Oh, yo, yo, there’s a demon inside
Oh, yo, yo, just like Jekyll and Hyde
Oh, yo, yo, all this anger inside
Oh, yo, yo, I feel like Jekyll and Hyde
[Breakdown]
If I wasn’t so deranged, could I ever face the pain?
If I ever were to change, would this song remain the same?
Oh, yo, yo
All I’m trying to do is live my motherfucking life
Oh, yo, yo
Wear a smile on my face, but there’s a demon inside
Oh, yo, yo
All I’m trying to do is live my motherfucking life
Oh, yo, yo
Wear a smile on my face, but there’s a demon inside
[Chorus]
Oh, yo, yo, there’s a demon inside
Oh, yo, yo, just like Jekyll and Hyde
Oh, yo, yo, all this anger inside
Oh, yo, yo, I feel like Jekyll and Hyde
Wash It All Away
[Verse one]
I’ve given up
On society
Up on my family
Up on your social disease
I’ve given up
On the industry
Up on democracy
Done with all your hypocrisy
[Pre-chorus]
All of the chaos
And all of the lies
I hate it
[Chorus]
I’m wasting here
Can anyone wash it all away
I’m waiting here
For anyone to wash it all away

On morality
Feeds my brutality

And there’s nothing you can say
I’ve given up
On everything
Up on everything
Up on everything

I’m wasting here
Can anyone wash it all away
I’m waiting here
For anyone to wash it all away
Wash it all away
I’m wasting here
With everyone just wash it all away
I’m waiting here
For anyone to wash it all away
Wash it all away
Wash it all away
Ain't My Last Dance
{Verse one]
I’m the apocalypse
With a fat lip
I never did and I still don’t give a shit
I’m such an outcast
You swore I’d never last
I got news for you
This ain’t my last dance
This ain’t my last dance
[Chorus]
I’ve given it all (give it all)
I’ve given everything for you
I’ve given you all (give you all)
What more do you want me to do
I’ve taken the fall (taken the fall)
I’ve given everything to you
I’ve given my all (give my all)
Will it ever be enough for you
[Verse two]
I am your nemesis
I don’t regret this
I wrote the fucking book with no consensus
Born to live fast
You said I’d never last
Let me say it again
This ain’t my last dance
This ain’t my last dance
[Chorus]
I’ve given it all (give it all)
I’ve given everything for you
I’ve given you all (give you all)
What more do you want me to do
I’ve taken the fall (taken the fall)
I’ve given everything to you
I’ve given my all (give my all)
Will it ever be enough for you
[Breakdown]
I won’t say you’re wrong
It comes together now
Falls together now
I won’t say I’m right
But it falls together now
Comes together now
This ain’t my last dance
[Chorus]
I’ve given it all (give it all)
I’ve given everything for you
I’ve given you all (give you all)
What more do you want me to do
I’ve taken the fall (taken the fall)
I’ve given everything to you
I’ve given my all (give my all)
Will it ever be enough for you
This ain’t my last dance
My Nemesis
[Verse one]
I’m leaving behind this world
And all the things I am
I’m tearing away from it
Because I know I can
I’m pushing away from you
And all the things you are
Don’t need the memory
Already wear the scars
There is no yesterday
Tomorrow’s far away
[Chorus]
I gave you everything
And in return
You gave me nothing
Show me a sign
Please give me anything
I will not hide from what’s inside of me
My nemesis!
[Verse two]
I’m turning away from me
And all the things I’ve known
I don’t need your help no more
I can do this on my own
I’m taking all the blame
Resent what I’ve become
I regret everything and
There’s nowhere left to run
There is no yesterday
Tomorrow’s far away
[Chorus]
I gave you everything
And in return
You gave me nothing
Show me a sign
Please give me anything
I will not hide from what’s inside of me
My nemesis!
I gave you everything
And in return
You gave me nothing
Show me a sign
Please give me anything
I will not hide from what’s inside of me
My nemesis!
No Sudden Movement
[Verse one]
Live your life
Like you’re a demigod
You force your weight
On everything and everyone
The bars you live
Behind are made of straw
How do you see the world
When you’re dead and gone
[Pre-chorus]
I dare not say what I want to say
No sudden movement
No sudden moves
I dare not say what’s inside of me
[Chorus]
Right
Between your eyes
Nowhere to hide
Click – clack reload
Click – clack unload
Life
Ain’t on your side
You’re out of time
Click – clack reload
Click – clack unload
[Verse two]
You’re a wolf
Hiding amongst the herd
You built a bridge
So you can watch it burn
Kick and scream
Your voice is never heard
Write down your complaints
And I’ll act like I’m concerned
[Pre-chorus]
I dare not say what I want to say
No sudden movement
No sudden moves
I dare not say what’s inside of me
[Chorus]
Right
Between your eyes
Nowhere to hide
Click – clack reload
Click – clack unload
Life
Ain’t on your side
You’re out of time
Click – clack reload
Click – clack unload
[Breakdown]
No sudden movement
No sudden moves
No sudden movement
No sudden moves
No sudden movement
No sudden moves

Between your eyes
Nowhere to hide

Ain’t on your side
You’re out of time

Question Everything
[Verse one]
She was a princess, she could’ve been a queen
She had the angels beneath her broken wings
She had the vision, she had the sight
She wants perfection, she wants it right
[Pre-chorus]
Who cares anymore, what’s right anymore?
(I question everything!)
[Chorus]
I won’t lie, I’ve never been ashamed
I don’t mind, admitting I’m to blame
I care no more, I can’t bare no more
I’ll say no more, I can’t give you anymore
(I question everything!) [x2]
[Verse two]
He lives in darkness, there is no progress
He knows the demons, they lie within him
He has no vision, he has no sight
He hates perfection, it wasn’t right!
[Pre-chorus]
Who cares anymore, who’s there anymore?
(I question everything!)
[Chorus]
I won’t lie, I’ve never been ashamed
I don’t mind, admitting I’m to blame
I care no more, I can’t bare no more
I’ll say no more, I can’t give you anymore
(I question everything!) [x5]
(I question everything!)
[Chorus]
I won’t lie, I’ve never been ashamed
(I question everything!)
I don’t mind, admitting I’m to blame
(I question everything!)
I care no more, I can’t bare no more
I’ll say no more, I can’t give you anymore
(I question everything!) [x2]
Hell To Pay
[Verse one]
Feels like I’m running in place
A past I can’t erase
I’m breaking, breaking apart
(I know they’re after me)
It’s like I’m fading each day
They took it all away
Left nothing, nothing but scars
(they make it hard to breathe)
[Pre-chorus]
Don’t know where it went wrong
But my love for this is gone
[Chorus]
I tried to numb the pain
But I can’t get away
Hiding behind this disguise
The games I had to play
The hell I had to pay
Everything comes with a price
[Verse two]
You’re waiting for me to fail
That ship will never sail
Keep pulling and pushing me down
(but I just won’t let go)
I know you wish I was dead
I’m stuck inside your head
I’m taking and breaking your crown
(I’m better left alone)
[Pre-chorus]
Don’t know where it went wrong
But my love for this is gone
[Chorus]
I tried to numb the pain
But I can’t get away
Hiding behind this disguise
The games I had to play
The hell I had to pay
Everything comes with a price
I tried to numb the pain
But I can’t get away
Hiding behind this disguise
The games I had to play
The hell I had to pay
Everything comes with a price
Digging My Own Grave
[Verse one]
I’ve been walking over graves
Carving out the headstone that I own, my own
I’m like a monster in a cage
Trapped inside a maze
I am home, I’m home
I’m here and gone, I’m dead and done
[Chorus]
I know there’s nothing I can change
And I regret the things I didn’t say
I resent how I walked away
Now I’m digging my own grave
Now I’m digging my own, digging my own grave
[Verse two]
Is there peace beyond the rage?
Tell me where this truly all went wrong, went wrong
I’ve been walking through the graves
Dancing with the lonely and the strong, the strong
I’m here and gone, I’m dead and done
[Chorus]
I know there’s nothing I can change
And I regret the things I didn’t say
I resent how I walked away
Now I’m digging my own grave
Now I’m digging my own, digging my own grave
Digging my, digging my own grave
I know there’s nothing I can change
And I regret the things I didn’t say
I resent how I walked away
Now I’m digging my own grave
Now I’m digging my own, digging my own grave
Is there peace beyond rage?
‘Cause I’ve been digging my own, digging my own grave
Meet My Maker
[Verse one]
Always try to see it your way
Never really knew whats right
Never really played in your games
(Saw it from the outside)
Never going to live it your way
I’d rather stand and fight
Never going to fall into place
See it from my side
[Chorus]
Letting go of everything
Looks better down on paper
Letting go of anything
Not until I meet my maker
[Verse two]
Never really saw it my way
Never really knew what’s right
Always gotta hide from the pain
(Saw it from the inside)
Never had to save it from face
Never had to run and hide
Tell me I’ve fallen from grace
See you on the dark side
[Chorus]
Letting go of everything
Looks better down on paper
Letting go of anything
Not until I meet my maker
Letting go of anything
Looks better down on paper
Letting go of everything
Not until I met my maker
[Breakdown]
Saw it from the outside
See it all from my side
Saw it from the inside
See you on the dark side
[Chorus]
Letting go of everything
Looks better down on paper
Letting go of anything
Not until I meet my maker
Letting go of anything
Looks better down on paper
Letting go of everything
Not until I met my maker
Meet my maker

You're Not My Kind (Bonus Track)
[Verse one]
Let’s take a walk down memory lane
When I was just a boy and I wasn’t insane
Back before the world got inside of my heart
Before all the sickness almost tore me apart
Corruption, deception
A natural progression
Denial was a drug that I couldn’t refuse
Now I’m just a puppet
Always singin’ for my supper
Blame it on myself
But I know it was you
I know it was you
[Chorus]
Here we go again
Life turns another corner
No way around it
I was born to fall behind
Here I go again
Life makes another loner
No way around it
You will never be my kind
You’re not my kind
[Verse two]
My dad was a killer, a cold blooded guerilla
Something I can never perceive
Mom was just a survivor, worked till it broke her
She always landed right on her feet
Rejection, infection
Down the wrong direction
Could never walk a day in their shoes
From a child to a leper
Feels like I’ve been severed
Blame it on the world
Cause I know that it’s true
I know it’s true
[Chorus]
Here we go again
Life turns another corner
No way around it
I was born to fall behind
Here I go again
Life makes another loner
No way around it
You will never be my kind
You’re not my kind
[Breakdown]
HAHAHA
You’re not my kind
You’re not my kind
You’re not my kind
You’re not my kind
[Chorus]
Here we go again
Life turns another corner
No way around it
I was born to fall behind
Here I go again
Life makes another loner
No way around it
You will never be my kind
You’re not my kind
You’re not my kind
This Is My War (Bonus Track)
[Verse one]
Tongue tied, dead inside
Nothing left, not even pride
This isn’t how I thought the future would go
Hell-bent, soul is spent
Nothing left but to repent
I’ve gotta dig myself back out of this hole
[Chorus]
This isn’t my fight
This is my war
(War, war, war)
I never wanted anything more
(This is my)
This is my war
(War, war, war)
Everything I love I’m fighting for
(This is my)
This is my war
[Verse two]
Crazy eyed, certified
Nothing left but shit inside
Nobody said this would be easy to do
Drying out, crying out
Nothing left but pain and doubt
I would be lying if I said it’s for you
[Chorus]
This isn’t my fight
This is my war
(war, war, war)
I never wanted anything more
(This is my)
This is my war
(war, war, war)
Everything I love I’m fighting for
(this is my)
This is my war
This is my war
This
This is my war
This is my war
(war, war, war)
I never wanted anything more
(this is my)
This is my war
(war, war, war)
Everything I love I’m fighting for
(this is my)
This is my
This is my war
I Apologize (Bonus Track)
[Verse one]
One day the shadows will surround me
Someday the days will come to end
Sometime I’ll have to face the real me
Somehow I’ll have to learn to bend
And now I see clearly
[Chorus]
All these times I simply stepped aside
I watched but never really listened
As the whole world passed me by
All this time I watched from the outside
Never understood what was wrong or what was right
I apologize, I apologize…
[Verse two]
One day I’ll face the Hell inside me
Someday I’ll accept what I have done
Sometime I’ll leave the past behind me
For now I accept who I’ve become
And now I see clearly
[Chorus]
All these times I simply stepped aside
I watched but never really listened
As the whole world passed me by
All this time I watched from the outside
Never understood what was wrong or what was right
I apologize, I apologize…
[Breakdown]
One day the shadows will surround me
[Chorus]
All these times I simply stepped aside
I watched but never really listened
As the whole world passed me by
All this time I watched from the outside
Never understood what was wrong or what was right
I apologize, I apologize
I apologize, I apologize
I apologize, I apologize
I apologize…
A Decade of Destruction

Verse one]
I don’t look for trouble, trouble looks for me
That’s how it’s always been, that’s how it’s gonna be
I’m looking down on you, you’re looking up to me
I never saw you coming, you never saw me
[Pre-chorus]
I can’t explain who I am
[Chorus]
Cause there’s no excuses, this is who I’m meant to be
There’s no regrets, I don’t care if you believe
There’s no excuses, this is who I choose to be
I don’t look for trouble, trouble looks for me!

Does it confuse you? I fucking used you
I got just what I want and what I wanna do
You won’t destroy me, you just annoy me
I’m sitting here on top, so fuck your trophy!

I can’t explain how I am

Cause there’s no excuses, this is who I’m meant to be

There’s no regrets, I don’t care if you believe
There’s no excuses, this is who I choose to be
I don’t look for trouble, trouble looks for me!
Trouble looks for me!
Gone Away
[Verse one]
Maybe in another life
I could find you there
Pulled away before your time
I can’t deal, it’s so unfair
[Chorus]
And it feels
And it feels like
Heaven’s so far away
And it feels
Yeah, it feels like
The world has grown cold
Now that you’ve gone away
[Verse two]
Leaving flowers on your grave
Show that I still care
Black roses and Hail Marys
I can’t bring back what’s taken from me
I reach to the sky
And call out your name
Oh please let me trade
I would
[Chorus]
And it feels
And it feels like
Heaven’s so far away
And it stings
Yeah, it stings now
The world is so cold
Now that you’ve gone away
Gone away
Gone away
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah
Ooh, yeah ooh ooh
I reach to the sky
And call out your name
Oh please let me trade
I would
[Chorus]
And it feels
And it feels like
Heaven is so far away
And it feels
Yeah it feels like
Heaven’s so far away
And it stings
Yeah, it stings now
The world is so cold
Now that you’ve gone away
Gone away
Gone away
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah
Ooh, yeah ooh ooh
Yeah ooh, yeah ooh ooh
And it feels
And it feels like
The world is so cold
Now that you’ve gone away
Lift Me Up
[Verse one]
It ain’t no mystery
I’m all I have left
I’m pushing back and running you over
I’ve been thrown down run around
Beaten ’til I hit the ground
Telling you right now that it’s over
There’s no room for mistakes
All the parts are in place
Say what you will but say it to my face
[Pre-chorus]
Better back the fuck up
Better shut the fuck up
I’ll do what I want and I’ll never give up
I won’t be broken
I won’t be tortured
I won’t be beaten down
I have the answer
I take the pressure
I turn it all around
[Chorus]
Lift me up above this
The flames and the ashes
Lift me up and help me to fly away
Lift me up above this
The broken the empty
Lift me up and help me to fly away
Lift me up
[Verse two – Rob Halford]
I’m gonna change history
Enlighten the world
Teach them how to see through my eyes
I’m gonna lash back check that
Fatal as a heart attack
Stomp out all the ugliest lies
You can’t convince me to change
We ain’t on the same page
I’ve had my fill now there’s nothing but rage
Best get out of my way
‘Cause there’s nothing to say
Is that all that you got?
Because I ain’t got all day
[Pre-chorus]
I won’t be broken
I won’t be tortured
I won’t be beaten down
I have the answer
I take the pressure
I turn it all around
[Chorus]
Lift me up above this
The flames and the ashes
Lift me up and help me to fly away
Lift me up above this
The broken the empty
Lift me up and help me to fly away
Lift me up

I won’t be tortured
I won’t be beaten down

I take the pressure
I turn it all around
Lift me up above this
The flames and the ashes
Lift me up and help me to fly away
Lift me up above this
The broken the empty
Lift me up and help me to fly away
Lift me up to fly away
Lift me up to fly away
Lift me up
Wash It All Away
[Verse one]
I’ve given up
On society
Up on my family
Up on your social disease
I’ve given up
On the industry
Up on democracy
Done with all your hypocrisy
[Pre-chorus]
All of the chaos
And all of the lies
I hate it
[Chorus]
I’m wasting here
Can anyone wash it all away
I’m waiting here
For anyone to wash it all away
Wash it all away
[Verse two]
I’ve given up
On the media
Feeds my hysteria
Sick of living down on my knees
I’ve given up
On morality
Feeds my brutality
Fuck what you think about me
[Pre-chorus]
All of the chaos
And all of the lies
I hate it
[Chorus]
I’m wasting here
Can anyone wash it all away
I’m waiting here
For anyone to wash it all away
Wash it all away
[Breakdown]
I won’t change for you
And I can’t take the pain
There’s nothing you can do
And there’s nothing you can say
I’ve given up
On everything
Up on everything
Up on everything
[Chorus]
I’m wasting here
Can anyone wash it all away
I’m waiting here
For anyone to wash it all away
Wash it all away
I’m wasting here
With everyone just wash it all away
I’m waiting here
For anyone to wash it all away
Wash it all away
Wash it all away
Bad Company
[Verse one]
A company
Always on the run
A destiny
Oh it’s the rising sun
I was born
A shotgun in my hands
Behind the gun
I’ll make my final stand, yeah!
[Chorus]
And that’s why they call me
Bad company
I can’t deny
Bad bad company ’til the day I die
Until the day I die
Until the day I die
[Verse two]
Rebel souls
Deserters we’ve been called
Chose a gun
And threw away the sun
Now these towns
Well, they all know our name
The death punch sound
Is our claim to fame
[Chorus]
And that’s why they call me
Bad company
I can’t deny
Bad bad company ’til the day I die
Until the day I die
Until the day I die
Until the day I die
[Breakdown]
Eye for an eye
Tooth for a tooth
Blood for blood
We’ve all gotta die
We’ve all gotta die
[Chorus]
And that’s why they call me
Bad company
I won’t deny
Bad bad company ’til the day I die
Bad company
I won’t deny
Bad bad company ’til the day I die
Until the day I die
Until the day I die
Until the day I die
Until the day I die
Under & Over It
Yeah, go!
[Verse one]
Did you hear the one about me being a punk?
Did you hear the one about me being a drunk?
Did you hear the one about me losing my nerve?
Or how I’m just another fucking sheep in the herd?
Did you hear about the money, how it made me change?
So funny to me, all the time that they waste.
Did you hear the one about me giving a shit?
‘Cause if I ever did I don’t remember it.
[Chorus]
You can be me and I will be you.
You can live just like a star.
I’ll take my sanity, you take the fame.
I’m under and over it all.
(I’m under and over it.)
[Verse two]
Did you hear the one about me playing the game?
Selling my soul and changing my name.
Did you hear the one about me being a prick?
Did you know I don’t care? You can suck my…
Did you hear the one about me trying to die?
Fist in the air and a finger to the sky.
Do I care if you hate me? Do you wanna know the truth?
C’est la vie….adiós….good riddance….fuck you!
[Chorus]
You can be me and I will be you.
You can live just like a star.
I’ll take my sanity, you take the fame.
I’m under and over it all.
(I’m under and over it.)
I, I, I’m under and over it.
I, I, I’m under and over it.
You can be me and I will be you.
You can live just like a star.
I’ll take my sanity, you take the fame.
I’m under and over it all.
(I’m under and over it.)
I’m under and over it all.
(I’m under and over it.)
I, I, I’m under and over it.
I, I, I’m under and over it.
Wrong Side of Heaven
[Verse one]
I spoke to God today, and she said that she’s ashamed.
What have I become, what have I done?
I spoke to the Devil today, and he swears he’s not to blame.
And I understood, cause I feel the same.
[Chorus]
Arms wide open, I stand alone.
I’m no hero, and I’m not made of stone.
Right or wrong, I can hardly tell.
I’m on the wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side of hell.
The wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side, the righteous side of hell.
[Verse two]
I heard from God today, and she sounded just like me.
What have I done, and who have I become.
I saw the Devil today, and he looked a lot like me.
I looked away, I turned away!
[Chorus]
Arms wide open, I stand alone.
I’m no hero, and I’m not made of stone.
Right or wrong, I can hardly tell.
I’m on the wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side of hell.
The wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side, the righteous side of hell.
[Breakdown]
I’m not defending, downward descending,
Falling further and further away!
Getting closer every day!
I’m getting closer every day, to the end.
To the end, the end, the end,
I’m getting closer every day!
[Chorus]
Arms wide open, I stand alone.
I’m no hero, and I’m not made of stone.
Right or wrong, I can hardly tell.
I’m on the wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side of hell.
The wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side of hell.
The wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side, the righteous side of hell.
House Of The Rising Sun
There is a house in Sin City
They call the Rising Sun
And it’s been the ruin of many a poor boy
And, God, I know I’m oneMy mother was a tailor
She sewed my new blue jeans
My father was a gamblin’ man
Down in Sin CityNow the only thing a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and a trunk
And the only time he’s satisfied
Is when he’s on a drunkWell, I’ve got one foot on the platform
The other’s on the train
I’m goin’ back to Sin City
To wear that ball and chainWell, mothers, tell your children
Never do what I have done
Spend your lives in sin and misery
In the house of the rising sunIn the house of the rising sun
Well, there’s a house in Sin City
They call the Rising Sun
And it’s been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God knows that I am one
I Apologize
[Verse one]
One day the shadows will surround me
Someday the days will come to end
Sometime I’ll have to face the real me
Somehow I’ll have to learn to bend
And now I see clearly
[Chorus]
All these times I simply stepped aside
I watched but never really listened
As the whole world passed me by
All this time I watched from the outside
Never understood what was wrong or what was right
I apologize, I apologize…
[Verse two]
One day I’ll face the Hell inside me
Someday I’ll accept what I have done
Sometime I’ll leave the past behind me
For now I accept who I’ve become
And now I see clearly
[Chorus]
All these times I simply stepped aside
I watched but never really listened
As the whole world passed me by
All this time I watched from the outside
Never understood what was wrong or what was right
I apologize, I apologize…
[Breakdown]
One day the shadows will surround me

All this time I watched from the outside
Never understood what was wrong or what was right
I apologize, I apologize
I apologize, I apologize
I apologize, I apologize
I apologize…
The Bleeding
[Verse one]
I remember when all the games began
Remember every little lie and every last goodbye
Promises you broke, words you choked on
And I never walked away
It’s still a mystery to me
[Pre-Chorus]
Well I’m so empty
I’m better off without you and you’re better off without me
Well you’re so unclean
I’m better off without you and you’re better off without me
[Chorus]
The lying, the bleeding, the screaming
Was tearing me apart
The hatred (deceiving), the beatings; it’s over
[Verse two]
Paint the mirrors black to forget you
I still picture your face and the way you used to taste
Roses in a glass, dead and wilted
To you this all was nothing
Everything to you is nothing
[Pre-Chorus]
Well you’re so filthy
I’m better off without you and you’re better off without me
Well I’m so ugly
You’re better off without me and I’m better off alone
[Chorus]
The lying, the bleeding, the screaming
Was tearing me apart
The hatred, the beatings (disaster); it’s over
[Bridge]
As wicked as you are, you’re beautiful to me
You’re the darkest burning star, you’re my perfect disease
[Chorus]
The lying, the bleeding, the screaming
Was tearing me apart
The hatred, the beatings; it’s over
Disaster
The lying, the bleeding, the screaming
Was tearing me apart
The hatred, the beatings; it’s over
Disaster
It’s over now…
Jekyll & Hyde
[Verse one]
There’s just so much God damned weight on my shoulders
All I’m trying to do is live my motherfucking life
Supposed to be happy, but I’m only getting colder
Wear a smile on my face, but there’s a demon inside
There’s just so much God damned weight on my shoulders
All I’m trying to do is live my motherfucking life
Supposed to be happy, but I’m only getting colder
Wear a smile on my face, but there’s a demon inside
[Chorus]
Oh, yo, yo, there’s a demon inside
Oh, yo, yo, just like Jekyll and Hyde
Oh, yo, yo, all this anger inside
Oh, yo, yo, I feel like Jekyll and Hyde
[Verse two]
There’s just so much God damned weight on your shoulders
That you can’t just live your motherfucking life
The story’s getting old and my heart is getting colder
I just wanna be Jekyll, but I’m always fighting Hyde
You’ve got rocks in your head, I can hear them rolling ’round
You can say that you’re above it, but you’re always falling down
Is there a method to your madness? Is it all about pride?
Everyone I know, they’ve got a demon inside
[Chorus]
Oh, yo, yo, there’s a demon inside
Oh, yo, yo, just like Jekyll and Hyde
Oh, yo, yo, all this anger inside
Oh, yo, yo, I feel like Jekyll and Hyde
[Breakdown]
If I wasn’t so deranged, could I ever face the pain?
If I ever were to change, would this song remain the same?
Oh, yo, yo
All I’m trying to do is live my motherfucking life
Oh, yo, yo
Wear a smile on my face, but there’s a demon inside
Oh, yo, yo
All I’m trying to do is live my motherfucking life
Oh, yo, yo
Wear a smile on my face, but there’s a demon inside
[Chorus]
Oh, yo, yo, there’s a demon inside
Oh, yo, yo, just like Jekyll and Hyde
Oh, yo, yo, all this anger inside
Oh, yo, yo, I feel like Jekyll and Hyde
Remember Everything
[Verse one]
Dear mother, I love you
I’m sorry, I wasn’t good enough
Dear father, forgive me
‘Cause in your eyes, I just never added up
In my heart I know I failed you, but you left me here alone
[Chorus]
If I could hold back the rain, would you numb the pain?
‘Cause I remember everything.
If I could help you forget, would you take my regrets?
‘Cause I remember everything.
[Verse two]
Dear brother, just don’t hate me
For never standing by you or being by your side
Dear sister, please don’t blame me
I only did what I thought was truly right
It’s a long and lonely road, when you know you walk alone
[Chorus]
If I could hold back the rain, would you numb the pain?
‘Cause I remember everything.
If I could help you forget, would you take my regrets?
‘Cause I remember everything.
[Breakdown]
I feel like running away
I’m still so far from home
You say that I’ll never change
But what the fuck do you know?
I’ll burn it all to the ground before I let you in
Please forgive me, I can’t forgive you now.
I remember everything.
[Chorus]
If I could hold back the rain, would you numb the pain?
‘Cause I remember everything.
If I could help you forget, would you take my regrets?
‘Cause I remember everything.
[Outro]
It all went by so fast
I still can’t change the past
I always will remember everything
If we could start again,
Would that have changed the end?
We remember everything, everything.
Coming Down
[Verse one]
It’s caving in around me
What I thought was solid ground
I tried to look the other way
But I couldn’t turn around
It’s OK for you to hate me
For all the things I’ve done
I’ve made a few mistakes
But I’m not the only one
[Pre-chorus]
Step away from the ledge
I’m coming down
[Chorus]
I could never be
What you want me to
You pull me under
To save yourself
(Save yourself)
You will never see
What’s inside of me
I pull you under just to save myself
[Verse two]
Was there ever any question
On how much I could take?
You kept feeding me your bullshit
Hoping I would break
Is there anybody out there?
Is there anyone who cares?
Is there anybody listening?
Will they hear my final prayers?
[Pre-chorus]
Step away from the ledge
I’m coming down
[Chorus]
I could never be
What you want me to
You pull me under
To save yourself
(Save yourself)
You will never see
What’s inside of me
I pull you under just to save myself
(Save myself)
[Breakdown]
It’s caving in around me
(Caving in)
It’s tearing me apart
(Tearing me)
It’s all coming down around me
(Coming down)
Does anyone
Anyone
Care at all?
I will never be
What you want me to
You pull me under
I pull you under
[Chorus]
I could never be
What you want me to
You pull me under
To save yourself
(Save yourself)
You will never see
What’s inside of me
I pull you under just to save myself
My Nemesis
[Verse one]
I’m leaving behind this world
And all the things I am
I’m tearing away from it
Because I know I can
I’m pushing away from you
And all the things you are
Don’t need the memory
Already wear the scars
There is no yesterday
Tomorrow’s far away
[Chorus]
I gave you everything
And in return
You gave me nothing
Show me a sign
Please give me anything
I will not hide from what’s inside of me
My nemesis!
[Verse two]
I’m turning away from me
And all the things I’ve known
I don’t need your help no more
I can do this on my own
I’m taking all the blame
Resent what I’ve become
I regret everything and
There’s nowhere left to run
There is no yesterday
Tomorrow’s far away
[Chorus]
I gave you everything
And in return
You gave me nothing
Show me a sign
Please give me anything
I will not hide from what’s inside of me
My nemesis!
I gave you everything
And in return
You gave me nothing
Show me a sign
Please give me anything
I will not hide from what’s inside of me
My nemesis!
Far From Home
Verse one]
Another day in this carnival of souls
Another night settles in as quickly as it goes
The memories of shadows, ink on the page
And I can’t seem to find my way home
[Chorus]
And it’s almost like
Your heaven’s trying everything
Your heaven’s trying everything
To keep me out
[Verse two]
All the places I’ve been and things I’ve seen
A million stories that made up a million shattered dreams
The faces of people I’ll never see again
And I can’t seem to find my way home
[Chorus]
Cause it’s almost like
Your heaven’s trying everything to break me down
Cause it’s almost like
Your heaven’s trying everything to keep me out
Cause it’s almost like
Your heaven’s trying everything to break me down
Cause it’s almost like
Your heaven’s trying everything
Your heaven’s trying everything to break me down
To break me down
To break me down
[Outro]
Your heaven’s trying everything
Your heaven’s trying everything to break me down
I’m battle born
I’m battle born
Everyday a castaway
A vagabond battle born
Battle born
Battle Born
[Verse one]
Once upon a time
I swore I had a heart
Long before the world I know
Tore it all apart
Once upon a time
There was a part of me I shared
Years before they took away
The part of me that cared
[Chorus]
I’ve been a thousand places
And shook a million hands
I don’t know where I’m going
But I know just where I’ve been
I’ve flown a million miles
And I’ve rode so many more
Everyday a castaway
A vagabond battle born
I’m battle born
[Verse two]
Once upon a time
I had an open point of view
But that was just so long ago
Before I had a clue
Was there such a time
Where I didn’t stand alone
Was there ever a time
And how would I have known
[Chorus]
Been a thousand places
And shook a million hands
I don’t know where I’m going
But I know just where I’ve been
I’ve flown a million miles
And I’ve rode so many more
Everyday a castaway
A vagabond battle born
[Breakdown]
Attention all passengers
Flight 555 now departing from Las Vegas to London
Please have your passports and boarding passes ready
{Chorus]
I’ve been a thousand places
And shook a million hands
I don’t know where I’m going
But I know just where I’ve been
I’ve flown a million miles
And I’ve rode so many more
Everyday a castaway
A vagabond battle born
Been a thousand places
And shook a million hands
I don’t know where I’m going
But I know just where I’ve been
I’ve flown a million miles
And I’ve rode so many more
Everyday a castaway
A vagabond battle born
[Outro]
I’m battle born
I’m battle born
Everyday a castaway
A vagabond battle born
Battle born
And Justice For None
Five Finger Death Punch lyrics to all songs featured on And Justice For NoneTrouble
[Verse one]
I don’t look for trouble, trouble looks for me
That’s how it’s always been, that’s how it’s gonna be
I’m looking down on you, you’re looking up to me
I never saw you coming, you never saw me
[Pre-chorus]
I can’t explain who I am
[Chorus]
Cause there’s no excuses, this is who I’m meant to be
There’s no regrets, I don’t care if you believe
There’s no excuses, this is who I choose to be
I don’t look for trouble, trouble looks for me!

Does it confuse you? I fucking used you
I got just what I want and what I wanna do
You won’t destroy me, you just annoy me
I’m sitting here on top, so fuck your trophy!

Cause there’s no excuses, this is who I’m meant to be

Fake
[Verse one]
This is the end, I can’t take anymore
This is where I’m fuckin’ drawing the line
You talk a great game, trying to make a big name
Soon you’re gonna run out of time
I’ve got news for you, I got nothing to lose
If you were smart you’d simply run and you’d hide
You’re such a dumb punk, such a fuckin’ weak chump
Don’t have the balls to look me dead in the eyes
Boom!
[Chorus]
You’re a… you’re a… you’re a…
You’re a fake mother fucker, I hate you mother fucker
I’ll break you mother fucker, you’re mine
You’re a joke mother fucker, you gloat but you’re a sucker
Such a fuckin’ waste of my time
You smile and wave with your borrowed fame
But everybody sees through the lies
You’re a fake mother fucker, you’re dated mother fucker
And you’re never gonna get what is mine
Fake!
You’re a fuckin’ fake
[Verse two]
What’s in a name bitch, you truly make me so sick
Think about the shit that you say
You’ll wish you never crossed me, you had me then you lost me
You’re losing all your bark when you beg
You’ve got a big mouth, makes me want to tear it out
You really don’t have nothing to say
I’m not your scapegoat, ram it down your damn throat
For me it’s just another day!
[Chorus]
You’re a… you’re a… you’re a…
You’re a fake mother fucker, I hate you mother fucker
I’ll break you mother fucker, you’re mine
You’re a joke mother fucker, you gloat but you’re a sucker
Such a fuckin’ waste of my time
You smile and wave with your borrowed fame
But everybody sees through the lies
You’re a fake mother fucker, you’re dated mother fucker
And you’re never gonna get what is mine
[Breakdown]
Fake!

You smile and wave with your borrowed fame
But everybody sees through the lies
You’re a fake mother fucker, you’re dated mother fucker
And you’re never gonna get what is mine
Fake!
You’re a fuckin’ fake
You’re such a fuckin’ fake
You’re just a fake fake fake fake
You’re such a fuckin’ fake!
Top Of The World
[Verse one]
I’m tired of bleeding for the ones that I love
Look to the heavens but there’s no one above
One day you need me, the other you hate
We’ve all got problems, I can fucking relate
[Pre-chorus]
I’ve tried my best to be humble
I’ve tried so hard to explain
I know that nothing is easy
(Over and over)
I know that all of it’s my fault
I bring you nothing but pain
Look at the way that you treat me
That’s why I’m insane
[Chorus]
Top of the world
Living the dream, wake me up, wake me up when it’s over
Top of the world
Living the dream, wake me up, wake me up when it’s over
[Verse two]
I’m sick of burning for the ones I despise
Have you mistaken me for some other guy
One day you love me, the other you run
My life’s a comedy, well isn’t this fun?
[Pre-chorus]
I’ve tried my best to be humble
I’ve tried so hard to explain
I know that nothing is easy
(Over and over)
I know that all of it’s my fault
I bring you nothing but pain
Look at the way that you treat me
That’s why I’m insane
[Chorus]
Top of the world
Living the dream, wake me up, wake me up when it’s over
Top of the world
Living the dream, wake me up, wake me up when it’s over
[Breakdown]
You know I’m living it up
Never giving a fuck
Heard you’re down on your luck
I-I just wanna take it
Living it up
Never giving a fuck
Never giving it up
I-I just wanna break it down
[Chorus]
Top of the world
Living the dream, wake me up, wake me up when it’s over
Top of the world
Living the dream, wake me up, wake me up when it’s over
Top of the world
Living the dream, wake me up, wake me up when it’s over
Top of the world
Living the dream, wake me up, wake me up when it’s over
Sham Pain
[Verse one]
I never cared about the money, never really needed fame
You’d think it would have changed me but I’ve always been the same
My label tried to sue me, TMZ tried to screw me
Blabbermouth can fuckin’ suck it ’cause they never fuckin’ knew me
Everybody seems like they’re waiting for me to die
Talk shit behind my back, can’t look me in the eye
They say I’m overrated, that I should’ve already faded
Gave a shit about it all because I love to be so hated
[Chorus]
All in all it’s a good life
I got what I want
I can’t complain (I can’t complain)
I’m living the good life
A toast to you now
It’s all sham pain (it’s all sham pain)
[Verse two]
I barely get to eat and when I finally get to sleep
I get drug out of bed for another meet and greet
I shake the hand of every fan, put on a happy face
Spread so fuckin’ thin I’m all over the place
I hate riding on the bus, I hate flying on the planes
Sedate myself just to kill the pain
I have no life, forgot the hope
The whole thing’s turned into one big joke
[Chorus]
All in all it’s a good life
I got what I want
I can’t complain (I can’t complain)
I’m living the good life
A toast to you now
It’s all sham pain (it’s all sham pain)
[Breakdown]
I mean no disrespect but I ain’t picking up the check
Taking selfies on your phone while you’re breathing down my neck
It’s getting pretty fuckin’ old, and I’m almost nearly done
I’m glad that you were happy, here’s another number one
I’m living the good life, a toast to you now, it’s all sham pain
[Chorus]
All in all it’s a good life
I got what I want
I can’t complain (I can’t complain)
I’m living the good life
A toast to you now
It’s all sham pain (it’s all sham pain)
Blue On Black
[Verse one]
Night falls and I’m alone
Skin, yeah, chilled me to the bone
You turned and you ran, oh yeah
Oh slipped right from my hands
[Chorus]
Yeah
Blue on black
Tears on a river
Push on a shove
Don’t mean much
Joker on jack
Match on a fire
Cold on ice
A dead man’s touch
Whisper on a scream
Never change a thing
Doesn’t bring you back
It’s like blue on black
[Verse two]
Blind, oh, but now I see
Truth, lies and in between
Wrong can’t be undone, oh no
Well it slipped from the tip of your tongue
[Chorus]
Yeah
Blue on black
Tears on a river
Push on a shove
Don’t mean much
Joker on jack
Match on a fire
Cold on ice
A dead man’s touch
Whisper on a scream
Never change a thing
Doesn’t bring you back
It’s blue on black
[Breakdown]
Blue on black
Tears on a river
Push on a shove
It don’t mean much
[Chorus]
Blue on black
Tears on a river
Push on a shove
Don’t mean much
Joker on jack
Match on a fire
Cold on ice
A dead man’s touch
Whisper on a scream
Never change a thing
Doesn’t bring you back
It’s blue on black
Yeah, blue on black
Yeah, it’s blue on black
Yeah, blue on black
Fire In The Hole
[Verse one]
I have a knife in my heart, I could never explain
Cloned from a killer, I crawled out the drain
Done from the start, there’s a short in my brain
To some it may hurt but to me it’s just pain
[Pre-chorus]
Regret it? Never…
Forget it, this ain’t a game
Ain’t gonna talk it, I ain’t ashamed (I ain’t ashamed)
I’m gonna walk it, I’ll never be tamed
[Chorus]
Open windows, closing doors
God can’t help us anymore
Souls forever come and go
Burn all the bridges then fire in the hole
[Verse two]
Ugly I can be, what you know about me?
I’m a pirate and a thief and you’ll never fucking see
There comes a point in time, put it all out on the line
I’m gonna get mine (mine), I come to take mine
[Pre-chorus]
Regret it? Never…
Forget it, this ain’t a game
Ain’t gonna talk it, I ain’t ashamed (I ain’t ashamed)
I’m gonna walk it, I’ll never be tamed
[Chorus]
Open windows, closing doors
God can’t help us anymore
Souls forever come and go
Burn all the bridges then fire in the hole
Burn all the bridges then fire in the hole
[Breakdown]
You live – die
That’s – life
You live – die
That’s – life
Whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa
[Chorus]
Open windows, closing doors
God can’t help us anymore
Souls forever come and go
Whoa, whoa
Open windows, closing doors
God can’t help us anymore
Souls forever come and go
Burn all the bridges then fire in the hole
Burn all the bridges then fire in the hole
I Refuse
[Verse one]
I don’t wanna die alone
I don’t wanna live forsaken
I refuse to let this go
Because my soul is breaking
I don’t wanna let you know
That my heart is just so jaded
I refuse to let it show
I refuse to let it go
[Chorus]
Wake me up when this is over
I’m tired of living life like its a dream
Please wake me up when its all over
I’m tired of living right here in between
I refuse
[Verse two]
I’ve always walked alone
I chose the path less taken
I refuse to let you win
Life’s a bitch and I’ve been shaken
Its not a joke at all
Inside my spirit’s fading
I refuse to take the fall
Cause no one cares at all
[Chorus]
Wake me up when this is over
I’m tired of living life like its a dream
Please wake me up when its all over
I’m tired of living right here in between
I refuse
[Breakdown]
Cause at the end of the day I’m not you
I refuse
[Chorus]
Wake me up when this is over
I’m tired of living life like its a dream
Please wake me up when its all over
I’m tired of living right here in between
Wake me up when this is over
I’m tired of living life like its a dream
Please wake me up when its all over
I’m tired of living right here in between
I refuse
It Doesn't Matter
I’ve wasted a lot of time and effort on motherfuckers like you
Now it’s my turn
1 2 3, fuck you!
Fuck you!
[Verse one]
You can run away from anything that you have ever done
You’re a victim to the system, you’re a knife and I’m a gun
You want to be a martyr but you cannot take the pain
You’re a voice without an echo, you’re a droplet, I’m the rain
You want me to just turn the other cheek
Want me to admit that I am weak
Want me to submit? That ain’t me, that ain’t me
[Pre-chorus]
You’re so self righteous
And you’re never going to change
You’re sick and spineless
You’re the fake and I’m the fame
[Chorus]
You can’t convince me life is fair
‘Cause you were never even there
In the end it doesn’t matter, matter at all
That’s why I never really cared
‘Cause I was never really scared
In the end it doesn’t matter, matter, matter, no!
[Verse two]
I wanna run away from everything I’ve ever said
It’s hard to really care when everything I love is dead
Can’t take away a single thing that I have ever done
I’m learning from the burning and that’s just half the fun
You want me to just turn the other cheek
Want me to admit that I am weak
Want to wear the crown? Learn to bleed, learn to bleed
[Pre-chorus]
You’re so self righteous
And you’re never going to change
You’re dead and lifeless
You’re a pawn within the game
[Chorus]
You can’t convince me life is fair
‘Cause you were never even there
In the end it doesn’t matter, matter at all
That’s why I never really cared
‘Cause I was never really scared
In the end it doesn’t matter, matter, matter, no!
Go!
[Chorus]
You can’t convince me life is fair
‘Cause you were never even there
In the end it doesn’t matter, matter at all
That’s why I never really cared
‘Cause I was never really scared
In the end it doesn’t matter, matter, matter
When The Seasons Change
[Verse one]
There’s a light in you
That tears me down to nothing
There’s an angel in your eyes
There’s a hope inside
That you can make it better
You see right through my disguise
[Pre-chorus]
When it rains it pours
And everybody stumbles
I won’t let them bring you down
[Chorus]
I won’t let you down
When the seasons change
I won’t go down
I’ll fight through the pain
I’ll be there right by your side
I’ll never let them bring you down
When the seasons change
[Verse two]
There’s a hope in me
That I will die for something
Was there fire in my eyes
All this pain inside
Will it be this way forever
I can run but I can’t hide
[Pre-chorus]
When it rains it pours
And everybody stumbles
I won’t let them bring me down
[Chorus]
I won’t let you down
When the seasons change
I won’t go down
I’ll fight through the pain
I’ll be there right by your side
I’ll never let them bring you down
When the seasons change
[Breakdown]
When the seasons change
And we’re in for colder weather
Look for me on the divide
[Chorus]
I won’t let you down
When the seasons change
I won’t go down
I’ll fight through the pain
I’ll be there right by your side
I’ll never let them bring you down
I won’t let you down
When the seasons change
Stuck In My Ways
[Verse one]
All the shades of gray that loom inside me
No one’s ever home and there’s no one around me
Such a perfect waste this soul behind me
No one really knows what truly drives me
[Pre-chorus]
I know what I’ve done wrong
I knew it all along
I can’t let it go, let it go, let it go
[Chorus]
Run away, run away
Look away, look away
I see inside you
I’m stuck in my ways, stuck in my ways
Run away, run away
Get away, get away
Leave me behind you
I’m stuck in my ways, stuck in my ways
[Verse two]
All the shades of red that have designed me
All the hell I’ve seen, it still confines me
All the pain I’ve felt, it’s still inside me
All the rage I have, it still completes me
[Pre-chorus]
I know what I’ve done wrong
I knew it all along
I can’t let it go, let it go, let it go
Let it go
[Chorus]
Run away, run away
Look away, look away
I see inside you
I’m stuck in my ways, stuck in my ways
Run away, run away
Get away, get away
Leave me behind you
I’m stuck in my ways, stuck in my ways
Stuck in my ways, stuck in my ways
Just run away, run away
Look away, look away
I see inside you
I’m stuck in my ways, stuck in my ways
Run away, run away
Get away, get away
Leave me behind you
I’m stuck in my ways, stuck in my ways
Stuck in my ways, stuck in my ways
Rock Bottom
[Verse one]
I ain’t your bitch, I ain’t your boy
I ain’t no god damn motherfucking toy
I’m not dead, I’m still alive
You don’t like it, you can go ahead and die
[Chorus]
Rock bottom
I got nothing left to hide
Rock bottom
I got nothing left but pride
Rock bottom
Nothing left to say
Rock bottom
Don’t bring that shit to me
Rock bottom
[Verse two]
You’re such a punk, you’ll never see
What it’s like to be a man like me
I refuse to be your kind
Have you lost your god damn motherfucking mind?
[Chorus]
Rock bottom
I got nothing left to hide
Rock bottom
I got nothing left but pride
Rock bottom
Nothing left to say
Rock bottom
Don’t bring that shit to me
Rock bottom
Rock bottom
[Breakdown]
Do you like blood? Cause I like mine
When you’re not looking I’ll be standing right behind
Can you taste blood? Cause I taste mine
You want the pain? Well I’m your motherfucking guy
[Chorus]
I hit rock bottom
I got nothing left to hide
Rock bottom
I got nothing left but pride
Rock bottom
Nothing left to say
Rock bottom
Don’t bring that shit to me
Rock bottom
Rock bottom
Gone Away
[Verse one]
Maybe in another life
I could find you there
Pulled away before your time
I can’t deal, it’s so unfair
[Chorus]
And it feels
And it feels like
Heaven’s so far away
And it feels
Yeah, it feels like
The world has grown cold
Now that you’ve gone away
[Verse two]
Leaving flowers on your grave
Show that I still care
Black roses and Hail Marys
I can’t bring back what’s taken from me
I reach to the sky
And call out your name
Oh please let me trade
I would
[Chorus]
And it feels
And it feels like
Heaven’s so far away
And it stings
Yeah, it stings now
The world is so cold
Now that you’ve gone away
Gone away
Gone away
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah
Ooh, yeah ooh ooh
I reach to the sky
And call out your name
Oh please let me trade
I would
[Chorus]
And it feels
And it feels like
Heaven is so far away
And it feels
Yeah it feels like
Heaven’s so far away
And it stings
Yeah, it stings now
The world is so cold
Now that you’ve gone away
Gone away
Gone away
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah
Ooh, yeah ooh ooh
Yeah ooh, yeah ooh ooh
And it feels
And it feels like
The world is so cold
Now that you’ve gone away
Bloody
[Verse one]
I’m staring at the photographs
That used to make me smile
Now all they bring is rage
Flipping through the albums
We made for one another
I’m tearing out that page
[Pre-chorus]
I love to hate you
I hate to love you
How did heaven turn to hell?
[Chorus]
I can’t blame you for leaving me
I took more from you than I could give away
You can’t blame me for turning face
Because everything became so bloody
[Verse two]
Does it have to burn
Does it have to sting
When we say goodbye
Do you ever stop to think about
What you’ve done to me
Cause I’m so bloody, bloody, bloody
It’s all so bloody, bloody, bloody
[Pre-chorus]
I hate to love you
I love to hate you
I will never wish you well
[Chorus]
I can’t blame you for leaving me
I took more from you than I could give away
You can’t blame me for turning face
Because everything became so bloody, bloody
Bloody, bloody yeah
[Verse three]
The pain we shared, the laughs and cries
All the evil lullabies
It all went up in flames
[Chorus]
I can’t blame you for leaving me
I took more from you than I could give away
You can’t blame me for turning face
Because everything became so bloody, bloody
Because everything became so bloody, bloody
Bloody, bloody
Will The Sun Ever Rise
[Verse one]
I take one step forward and two steps back
It’s always been like that, it shouldn’t be like that
I’m trying to overcome myself
Trying to work around this hell
Two steps forward and three steps back
Why is life like that? Why am I like that?
I’m trying to understand myself
Trying to fight through this hell
[Pre-chorus]
Why can’t I see this clearly? (See this clearly)
Why can’t I?
[Chorus]
Hey hey you, are you living the dream?
If you’ve seen what I’ve seen, nothing is clean
Hey hey you, while I’m rolling the dice
I’ve been paying the price, I’ve been walking on ice
Hey hey you, just get outta my way
At the end of the day, you’ve got nothing to say
Hey hey you, see the look in my eyes
Will the sun ever rise, will the sun ever rise?
Will the sun ever rise again?
[Verse two]
All the days gone by and I can’t get ’em back
What was my name now, what is my name now?
I’m trying to rise above myself
Trying to look beyond this hell
Seems like I got way off track
No one ever found me, no one unbound me
They wonder why I hate myself
Surrounded by a living hell
[Pre-chorus]
Why can’t I see this clearly? (See this clearly)
Why can’t I?
[Chorus]
Hey hey you, are you living the dream?
If you’ve seen what I’ve seen, nothing is clean
Hey hey you, while I’m rolling the dice
I’ve been paying the price, I’ve been walking on ice
Hey hey you, just get outta my way
At the end of the day, you’ve got nothing to say
Hey hey you, see the look in my eyes
Will the sun ever rise, will the sun ever rise?
[Breakdown]
Will the sun ever rise?
Will the sun ever rise?
Will the sun ever rise, will the sun ever rise?
Will the sun ever rise?
[Chorus]
Hey hey you, are you living the dream?
If you’ve seen what I’ve seen, nothing is clean
Hey hey you, while I’m rolling the dice
I’ve been paying the price, I’ve been walking on ice
Hey hey you, just get outta my way
At the end of the day, you’ve got nothing to say
Hey hey you, see the look in my eyes
Will the sun ever rise, will the sun ever rise?
Will the sun ever rise?
Will the sun ever rise?
Will the sun ever rise?
No!
Save Your Breath (Bonus Track)
[Verse one]
Children of all ages, welcome to the game
Time to face your demons (Question the answers)
Wasted generation, raised by television
Come and choose your poison (Christian or cancer)
[Pre-chorus]
I can’t be sympathetic
Repent repent, repent repent
Are you that blind?
[Chorus]
Save my breath, ’cause no one is listening
There’s no today if there’s no tomorrow
Save your breath, ’cause no one can hear you
Another day in the life…
Save your breath
[Verse two]
Buy, bigger and better, sell your soul for whatever
Lies, so fucking clever (Nothing is sacred)
Priests and politicians, crime masked by religion
Faith with no contrition (Bring on your hatred)
[Pre-chorus]
I can’t feel empathetic
Repent repent, repent repent
I’m not that blind
[Chorus]
Save my breath, ’cause no one is listening
There’s no today if there’s no tomorrow
Save your breath, ’cause no one can hear you
Another day in the life…
Save my breath, ’cause no one is listening
There’s no today if there’s no tomorrow
Save your breath, ’cause no one can hear you
Another day in the life…
Save your breath

Repent repent, repent repent
Repent repent, repent repent

There’s no today if there’s no tomorrow
Save your breath, ’cause no one can hear you
Another day in the life…
Save your breath

Bad Seed (Bonus Track)
[Verse one]
I didn’t give up the fight
I gave up on what’s right
Everything I should’ve believed
I don’t care about no one
It’s just who I’ve become
You swore that I wouldn’t succeed
I know that you’re wrong
Insanity embraces me
It’s what I chose and it’s what I believe
I still stand here strong
[Chorus]
I won’t deny, deny
The sun never shines
It always rains on me
I can’t deny, deny
That I never tried
No honor amongst us thieves
Inside, inside
I try to survive
Strangled by the waste
You can’t deny, deny
That I never tried
It’s always been on me
I’m just a bad seed
I’m just a bad seed
I’m just a bad seed
[Verse two]
I gave up on the light
I gave into the night
I never knew how much I could bleed
When it’s all said and done
I still stuck to my guns
I always knew what I could achieve
Even if I’m wrong…
Honesty is everything
It’s what I know and it’s what I believe
I still stand here strong
[Chorus]
I won’t deny, deny
The sun never shines
It always rains on me
I can’t deny, deny
That I never tried
No honor amongst us thieves
Inside, inside
I try to survive
Strangled by the waste
You can’t deny, deny
That I never tried
It’s always been on me
[Breakdown]
I’m just a bad seed
I’m just a bad seed
I’m just a bad seed
I’m just a bad seed
I’m just a bad seed
Yeah!
Bad seed!
Yeah!
Bad seed!
I’m just a bad seed
[Chorus]
I won’t deny, deny
The sun never shines
It always rains on me
I can’t deny, deny
That I never tried
No honor amongst us thieves
Inside, inside
I try to survive
Strangled by the waste
You can’t deny, deny
That I never tried
It’s always been on me
I’m just a bad seed

Inside Out
[Verse one]
Oh, take it, I don’t need it
I don’t wanna hear your motherfuckin’ side
You can love it or you can leave it
Because nothing I say and nothing I feel is right
[Pre-chorus]
Even if you wanted to, you couldn’t understand
While I’m sitting up here dying, you’re just holding out your hand
And even if I wanted to, I couldn’t have explained
Cause you don’t know the difference between violence and pain
There’s no denying it, you’ve never had control
[Chorus]
I stand alone
Guess I knew it all along
Yes I knew that you were wrong
How you left when I was down
I want you to say
It was never really me
You just turned and walked away
How you turned me inside out
Inside out
[Verse two]
I’m not a dog (I’m not a dog), I’m not a slave (I’m not a slave)
It doesn’t matter how much money I get paid
I give a shit (I give a shit), I never did (I never did)
So you can wipe it away, that silly fuckin’ grin
[Pre-chorus]
If I wrote it down for you, could you ever see it clear
Or would it go straight through your soul and come right out your ear
If I slowed it down for you, would you think me insincere
Cause in the end I’ll never bend, I’ll never shed a tear
There’s no denying it, I’ve always had control
[Chorus]
I stand alone
Guess I knew it all along
Yes I knew that you were wrong
How you left when I was down
I want you to say
It was never really me
You just turned and walked away
How you turned me inside out
Inside out
Inside out
[Breakdown]
How you’ve turned me inside out
Inside out
Inside out
How you’ve turned me inside out (inside out)
I’m inside out
So inside out
[Chorus]
I stand alone
Guess I knew it all along
Yes I knew that you were wrong
How you left when I was down
I want you to say
It was never really me
You just turned and walked away
How you turned me inside out
Inside out
Inside out
Full Circle
This is not a test, this is not a test
This is not a test, this is not a test
[Verse one]
That’s it, I fuckin’ had it, I can’t take it anymore
Yeah, I know now why I’m losin’, well, just look who’s keepin’ score
Got a vermin preachin’ sermon tellin’ me how I should think
While they’re busy countin’ backwards you’re there busy countin’ sheep

[Verse two]
There’s a demon sellin’ freedom to a martyr on T.V.
While you’re watching you should google, all the ways you’ve been deceived
There’s a new season of treason that you really outta see
And the bridges that they’re burning, well they all lead back to me
[Chorus]
I know I’m never going to change the world (Change the world)
I’m not sure that I could even if I tried (Full circle)
I know I’m never going to save the world (Save the world)
So I’ll sit here laughing as it all goes by (Full circle)

Living The Dream
[Verse one]
Captain America, are you off to fight the bad guys?
Hey, mighty Superman, can you save us from ourselves?
Hey, Mr. Universe, can you lift us up above this?
‘Cause I’m just Iron Man, I’m a ghost within a shell
[Pre-chorus]
Take a look around
Just look around
[Chorus]
They say the road to Hell is paved with good intentions
Why did they never mention what’s real and in between?
It seems the path we’re on was paved with blood and sorrow
No thought about tomorrow
Just part of the machine or so it seems
Yeah, so it seems
We’re all living the dream
We’re all living the dream
[Verse two]
Hey there, Your Majesty, is there anyone above you?
It must be lonely when you’re up there looking down
Hey, Lady Amnesty, there’s no one that can judge you
We’re all just broken toys beneath your crooked crown
[Pre-chorus]
Take a look around
Just look around
[Chorus]
They say the road to Hell is paved with good intentions
Why did they never mention what’s real and in between?
It seems the path we’re on was paved with blood and sorrow
No thought about tomorrow
Just part of the machine or so it seems
Yeah, so it seems
We’re all living the dream
[Breakdown]
Take a look around
Just look around
They say the road to Hell is paved with good intentions
Why did they never mention what’s real and in between?
It seems the path we’re on was paved with blood and sorrow
No thought about tomorrow
Just part of the machine or so it seems
Yeah, so it seems
We’re all living the dream
We’re all living the dream
We’re all living the dream
A Little Bit Off
[Verse one]
I’m a little bit off today, something down inside me’s different
Woke up a little off today, I can tell that something’s wrong
I’m a little thrown off today, there’s something going on inside me
I’m a little bit off today, a little bit off today
(I’m a little bit off today, a little bit off)
See, I’m a little bit off today, I cannot put my finger on it
Got up a little off today, just to play that same old song
I don’t really wanna try today, I see nothing in my reflection
I’m a little bit dry today, feel like I could die today
I’m a little bit off today
Feel like I could die today
[Chorus]
Hey yeah, hey yeah
Hey yeah, don’t ya know? (I’m a little bit off)
Hey yeah, hey yeah
Hey, you gotta let it go (I’m a little, just a little bit off)
[Verse two]
I’m a little pissed off today and there ain’t nothing you can do about it
I’m a little bit put off today and I could not tell you why
Got a really short fuse today and everyone around me’s fucking crazy
I’m a little ticked off today, a little pissed off today
(I’m a little bit off today)
I told a little white lie today, I smiled and told someone I loved them
I had to say goodbye today to someone that I love
I couldn’t even cry today, I think my heart is finally broken
Didn’t need a reason why today, I don’t need a reason why today
[Chorus]
Hey yeah, hey yeah
Hey yeah, don’t ya know? (I’m a little bit off)
Hey yeah, hey yeah
Hey, you gotta let it go (I’m a little, just a little bit off)
[Breakdown]
I got a little too high today, got lost inside a sea of madness
Crashed a little bit hard today, crashed a little too hard today
Everybody sing
[Chorus]
Hey yeah, hey yeah
Hey yeah, don’t ya know? (I’m a little bit off)
Hey yeah, hey yeah
Hey, you gotta let it go (I’m a little, just a little bit off)
Hey, you gotta let it go (I’m a little, just a little bit off)
I’m a little bit off today
Something down inside me feels so different
Just a little bit off today
You can all fuck off today
Bottom Of The Top
[Verse one]
Is this metal enough for you
Is it heavy enough
Destructive enough
Am I dead enough for you
Am I tough enough
Corrupt enough
Am I bloody enough
Am I broken enough
[Chorus]
Can I be – Can I be
One of the cool kids
The dumb shits
All I ever wanted to be
Is one of the brightest mother fuckin’ fallen stars
Can I be – Can I be
One of your heroes

To Be Alone
[Verse one]
Hey you
Can you tell me when enough is enough?
When you’ve pushed enough buttons and it’s time to back up?
Well, would you know when someone else has had enough of you?
(Of you) Of you
(Yes, you)
Just take a second, you should listen to yourself
Everybody is to blame, but no one else is around
Is any of it sinking in and making sense to you?
(Of you) Yes, you
(It’s true)
Is there no means to an end?
[Chorus]
So tell me, how does it feel to know that no one is coming?
No one is running
When you hit the ground (You hit the ground)
How does it feel to know that no one’s around you?
No one will be there
When you hit the ground (You hit the ground)
How does it feel?
How does it feel to be alone?
[Verse two]
Well, now that I’ve got you here and you’re all alone
Is there anyone you need to call before we move on?
Well, is there anybody out there thinking of you? (It’s true)
Of you (Yes, you)
I can see the empty look in your eyes
Like someone came along, stole your heart, and left you to die, yeah
I know the feeling ’cause you did the same things to me
(Of you) It’s true
(It’s true)
Is there a means to the end?
[Chorus]
So tell me, how does it feel to know that no one is coming?
No one is running
When you hit the ground (You hit the ground)
How does it feel to know that no one’s around you?
No one will be there
When you hit the ground (You hit the ground)
How does it feel?
How does it feel to be alone?
To be alone
[Chorus]
So tell me, how does it feel to know that no one is coming?
No one is running
When you hit the ground (You hit the ground)
How does it feel to know that no one’s around you?
No one will be there
When you hit the ground (You hit the ground)
How does it feel?
How does it feel to be alone?
To be alone
To be alone
To be alone
Mother May I (Tic Toc)
Tic toc, time is up
Tic toc, time is up!
[Verse one]
(I know you!)
You’re the one on the magazine covers and everyone loves ya
(Such a star!)
You’re the one everyone wants to be like, but no one can be
[Chorus]
Mother may I have a moment?
Feel I’ve come undone
Can you stop me from this spinning?
Nowhere left to run
Special’s a term they use to describe someone when they’re afraid to admit that they’re right!
[Verse two]
(I see you!)
You’re the one that’s in all of the movies, on everyone’s TVs
(Such a farce!)
You’re convinced that your shit doesn’t stink and we all should adore you
[Chorus]
Father can you stop this bleeding?
Hate what we’ve become
I’ve turned my cheek so many times
Fear I’m almost done!
[Breakdown]
Death is a term that they use to describe something they can’t accept because it comes with a price!
Tic toc
Tic toc
Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference
[Chorus]
Father can you stop this bleeding?
Hate what we’ve become
I’ve turned my cheek so many times
Fear I’m almost done!
Darkness Settles In
[Verse one]
Another sun sets down behind me, another day comes crashing in
There’s a whispering wind that’s blowing, there’s a storm that’s closing in
I can hear the trains they’re rolling to a place I’ve never been
And I can feel her breath beside me with an empty glass of gin
As the darkness settles in, I can hear her voice again
I can hear your voice again
[Chorus]
Waiting for someone to save me but everyone just runs away
Waiting for someone to change me but no one ever comes
I’m breaking down the walls that cage me but nothing ever falls in place
Waiting for the end to take me, blinded by the sun
[Verse two]
All the ghosts that live inside me always waiting in the wind
I can see through my reflection, what I’ve become and what I’ve been
You see, your Heaven doesn’t want me and your Hell won’t let me in
It’s like I’m holding all the aces but I know I’ll never win
[Chorus]
Waiting for someone to save me but everyone just runs away
Waiting for someone to change me but no one ever comes
I’m breaking down the walls that cage me but nothing ever falls in place
Waiting for the end to take me, blinded by the sun
[Breakdown]
You can take it away, tear it all down
Spit in my face, pushed to the ground
Look what I’ve become!
I’ve fallen from grace, bloodied and bound
Taking up space, lost and I’m found!
Look what I’ve become!
[Verse three]
I can hear the snakes they’re winding
Singing songs of pain and sin
There’s an anger overflowing
From this empty glass of gin
As the darkness settles in
And the darkness settles in
[Chorus]
Waiting for someone to save me but everyone just runs away
Waiting for someone to change me but no one ever comes
I’m breaking down the walls that cage me but nothing ever falls in place
Waiting for the end to take me, blinded by the sun
(You can take it away!) And the darkness settled in
(You can take it away!) And the darkness settled in!
As the darkness settles in…
This Is War
Un dos tres
Get the fuck up
[Verse one]
Call me insidious sadistic narcissistic demon child
But tell me what’s in a name
To me it’s all the same
And no one’s ever gonna take my side
Ballistic egotistic homicidal animal
I gotta predators mind
I’d rather leave it behind
Never let it infect my skull
[Chorus]
You want it – you got it – take it
This is war
You want it – you got it – you can keep it
Break it off break it off
You want it – you got it – take it
Mother fucker this is war
You want it – you got it – you can have it
Fuck it all fuck it all
[Verse two]
You’re desensitized computerized a product of the times
But you just follow along
Always rubbing me wrong
You’re so convinced that you are right
Dehumanizing polarizing everything you see
They’re just wearing you down
Like a rodeo clown
Or maybe that’s just me
[Chorus]
You want it – you got it – take it
This is war
You want it – you got it – you can keep it
Break it off break it off
You want it – you got it – take it
Mother fucker this is war
You want it – you got it – you can have it
Fuck it all fuck it all
Fuck
[Breakdown]
I know you better than you fucking do
Ya I’ve seen your kind before
And I ain’t impressed at all
You’re a snitch, you’re a cheat
You’re a liar and a thief
You’re the weakest of the heard
And you’ll get what you deserve
Falling backwards
Down the hole you go
In the hole you go
[Chorus]
You want it – you got it – take it
This is war
You want it – you got it – you can keep it
Break it off break it off
You want it – you got it – take it
Mother fucker this is war
You want it – you got it – you can have it
Fuck it all fuck it all
[Chorus]
You want it – you got it – take it
This is war
You want it – you got it – you can keep it
Break it off break it off
You want it – you got it – take it
Mother fucker this is war
You want it – you got it – you can have it
Fuck it all fuck it all

Leave It All Behind
Was there ever a time – that you could define
Tell me was there ever a time that you could refine
What was boiling deep inside you
What was building up inside youSo what’ll you do when none of it’s true
Ya gonna go and break the mirror you thought was you
While it’s coming down around you
It’s all falling down around you
If I took away your one excuse
Helped you down and cut the noose
Would you leave it all behind you
Could you leave this all behind youIf you tore away the tourniquet
And you put yourself in front of it
Could you leave this all behind you
Would you leave this all behind you
Tell me was there ever a way – ever a day
You could have simply walked away or talked your way
Out of what was changing deep inside you
Rearranging what’s inside youWhile you’re lookin’ around for someone to blame
I hear that you been running around dropping my name
While the ship you’re on is sinking
What the fuck have you been thinking[Chorus]
Helped you down and cut the noose
Would you leave it all behind you
Could you leave this all behind youIf you tore away the tourniquet
And you put yourself in front of it
Could you leave this all behind you
Would you leave this all behind you
If I took away your one excuse
Helped you down and cut the noose
Would you leave it all behind you
Could you leave this all behind youIf you tore away the tourniquet
And you put yourself in front of it
Could you leave this all behind you
Would you leave this all behind you
Helped you down and cut the noose
Would you leave it all behind you
Could you leave this all behind youIf you tore away the tourniquet
And you put yourself in front of it
Could you leave this all behind you
Would you leave this all behind you
Scar Tissue
[Verse one]
You ripped my heart out and you threw it away
Torn away – threw away – ripped away
Been pushing buttons since the day that we met
All the pain – it’s a shame – you’re insane
Infectious
I bleed you out
So precious
You’re empty
[Chorus]
You’re always saving face and hiding behind love
There’s nothing left to save – just look what we’ve become
Scar tissue
[Verse two]
You run in circles and you plant fuckin’ lies
Escalate all the hate you create
There’s just no end and you’re so quick to defend
Fabricate medicate isolate
Infectious
I bleed you out
So precious
You’re empty
[Chorus]
You’re always saving face and hiding behind love
There’s nothing left to save – just look what we’ve become
Scar tissue
You’re always saving face and hiding behind love
There’s nothing left to save – just look what we’ve become
Scar tissue
Brighter Side Of Grey
[Verse one]
I’m writing this in case I’m gone tomorrow
I’m writing this in case I’ve moved along
There’s something that I hope you’ll remember
That life is not a game, it’s a song
[Pre-chorus]
So take the best parts of me
Locked away without the keys
And know that I’m forever by your side
[Chorus]
When the lights go down
Know that I am never far away
When the sun burns out
I’ll be waiting on the brighter side of grey
[Verse two]
If you’re reading this, I know you’re feeling sorrow
If you’re hearing this, I know you’re probably scared
Just know that all the things you want are borrowed
And all you get to keep is all you’ve shared
[Pre-chorus]
So wipe away the tears for me
Know that we’ve made history
Remember no one ever really dies
[Chorus]
When the lights go down
Know that I am never far away
When the sun burns out
I’ll be waiting on the brighter side of grey
[Chorus]
When the lights go down
Know that I am never far away
When the sun burns out
I’ll be waiting on the brighter side of grey
Inside Out - Radio Edit (Bonus Track)
[Chorus]
I stand alone
Guess I knew it all along
Yes I knew that you were wrong
How you left when I was down
[Verse one]
Take it – I don’t need it
I don’t wanna hear your mother fuckin’ side
You can love it or you can leave it
Because nothing I say and nothing I feel is right
[Pre-chorus]

While I’m sitting up here dying – you’re just holding out your hand
And even if I wanted to I couldn’t have explained
Cause you don’t know the difference between violence and pain
[Chorus]
There’s no denying it you’ve never had control

It doesn’t matter how much money I get paid
Don’t give a shit – I never did
So you can wipe it away that silly fuckin’ grin
[Pre-chorus]
If I wrote it down for you could you ever see it clear
Or would it go straight through your soul and come right out your ear
If I slowed it down for you would you think me insincere
Cause in the end I’ll never bend
I’ll never shed a tear
[Chorus]
There’s no denying it I’ve always had control
I stand alone
Guess I knew it all along
Yes I knew that you were wrong
How you left when I was down
I want you to say
It was never really me
You just turned and walked away
How you turned me inside out

How you left when I was down
I want you to say
It was never really me
You just turned and walked away
How you turned me inside out

The Tragic Truth
[Verse one]
I’m drowning in the bottom of a bottle.
Running from a man I swore I’d never be.
No one ever has to face tomorrow.
But I’m the one that has to face me.
[Pre-chorus]
It’s the demons I’ve created for myself.
The tragic truth.
It’s hard for me to understand myself.
So it has to be hard as hell for you! (For you! You!)
[Chorus]
Are we born to be broken, sinners, and thieves?
Someone tell the heavens I’m ready to escape! (You!)
This is not what I wanted not what I need!
Take it all, tear it all, rip it all away!
[Verse two]
I can’t say the Devil made me do it.
I chose to be the one I am, the way I am today.
I wish there was but there’s no way around it.
In the end I made the choice and will not die ashamed.
[Pre-chorus]
It’s the voices screaming in my head.
The tragic truth.
It’s hard for me to understand myself.
So it has to be hard as hell for you! (You! You!)
[Chorus]
Are we born to be broken, sinners, and thieves?
Someone tell the heavens I’m ready to escape! (You!)
This is not what I wanted not what I need!
Take it all, tear it all, rip it all away!
Take it all, tear it all, take it all, tear it all away!
Are we born to be broken, sinners, and thieves?
Someone tell the heavens I’m ready to escape! (You!)
This is not what I wanted not what I need!
Take it all, tear it all, rip it all away! (Away!)
Are we born to be broken, sinners, and thieves?
Someone tell the heavens I’m ready to escape! (You!)
This is not what I wanted not what I need!
Take it all, tear it all, rip it all away!
Take it all, tear it all, rip it all, tear it all! (It all away)
Someone tell the heavens to take it all, tear it all away!
Broken World
[Intro – Ivan Moody]
Is it liberty or anarchy that brought us here to this?
Thrown into a broken world
[Verse One – Chris Kael]
Is it liberty or anarchy?
Have we lost the way?
I don’t know if we’ll wake up or if we’ll see another day
Things are fucked – they’ve gone to hell
Is there nothing we can do?
We can’t unbreak this broken world
We can only turn the screw
[Chorus]
We live in a world that’s turned so cold
Now that our integrity has been sold
We’re living inside this broken world
This broken world
This broken world
[Verse Two]
Is it anarchy or liberty
What have we become?
When lies are truth and we are blind
This can never be undone
Will we survive this travesty?
What can I fucking do?
I won’t unbreak this broken world
I will only turn the screw
[Chorus]
We live in a world that’s turned so cold
Now that our integrity has been sold
We’re living inside this broken world
This broken world
This broken world
We live in a world that’s turned so cold
Now that our integrity has been sold
We’re living inside this broken world
This broken world
This broken world
We’re living inside this broken world
This broken world
This broken world
I Refuse
[Verse one]
I don’t wanna die alone
I don’t wanna live forsaken
I refuse to let this go
Because my soul is breaking
I don’t wanna let you know
That my heart is just so jaded
I refuse to let it show
I refuse to let it go
[Chorus]
Wake me up when this is over
I’m tired of living life like its a dream
Please wake me up when its all over
I’m tired of living right here in between
I refuse
[Verse two]
I’ve always walked alone
I chose the path less taken
I refuse to let you win
Life’s a bitch and I’ve been shaken
Its not a joke at all
Inside my spirit’s fading
I refuse to take the fall
Cause no one cares at all
[Chorus]
Wake me up when this is over
I’m tired of living life like its a dream
Please wake me up when its all over
I’m tired of living right here in between
I refuse
[Breakdown]
Cause at the end of the day I’m not you
I refuse
[Chorus]
Wake me up when this is over
I’m tired of living life like its a dream
Please wake me up when its all over
I’m tired of living right here in between
Wake me up when this is over
I’m tired of living life like its a dream
Please wake me up when its all over
I’m tired of living right here in between
I refuse

Hard To See
[Verse one]
I’m growing so distant
Nothing makes sense to me anymore
I’m learning to resist
Becoming more than you ever were
[Chorus]
Can’t explain,
What’s come over me (come over me)
Can’t explain,
Why it’s so hard for me, so hard to see your side
[Verse two]
Projecting all my anger
I can’t seem to get this through to you
The walls are closing in
I dare you to walk in my shoes
[Chorus]
Can’t explain,
What’s come over me (come over me)
Can’t explain,
Why it’s so hard for me, so hard to see your side
Your side
I won’t see your side
Can’t explain,
What’s come over me (come over me)
Can’t explain,
Why it’s so hard for me, so hard to see your side
Can’t explain,
What’s come over me (come over me)
Can’t explain,
Why it’s so hard for me, so hard to see your side
I won’t see
Your side
When The Seasons Change
[Verse one]
There’s a light in you
That tears me down to nothing
There’s an angel in your eyes
There’s a hope inside
That you can make it better
You see right through my disguise
[Pre-chorus]
When it rains it pours
And everybody stumbles
I won’t let them bring you down
[Chorus]
I won’t let you down
When the seasons change
I won’t go down
I’ll fight through the pain
I’ll be there right by your side
I’ll never let them bring you down
When the seasons change
[Verse two]
There’s a hope in me
That I will die for something
Was there fire in my eyes
All this pain inside
Will it be this way forever
I can run but I can’t hide
[Pre-chorus]
When it rains it pours
And everybody stumbles
I won’t let them bring me down
[Chorus]
I won’t let you down
When the seasons change
I won’t go down
I’ll fight through the pain
I’ll be there right by your side
I’ll never let them bring you down
When the seasons change
[Breakdown]
When the seasons change
And we’re in for colder weather
Look for me on the divide
[Chorus]
I won’t let you down
When the seasons change
I won’t go down
I’ll fight through the pain
I’ll be there right by your side
I’ll never let them bring you down
I won’t let you down
When the seasons change
Cradle To The Grave
[Verse one]
The blood that runs within my veins
(the blood that runs within my veins)
Keeps me from ever ending up the same
(ending up the same)
The fire that’s pushing me on and on and on
(on and on and on)
To me it’s everything and it makes me fucking strong
[Pre-chorus]
Love me or hate me
I walk alone
[Chorus]
Been called a monster, called a demon, called a freak
(called a freak)
I’m not an idol, not an angel, not a saint
(I’m not a saint)
I walk alone, I always have, I’m not ashamed
(not ashamed)
A living nightmare from the cradle to the grave
[Verse two]
The soul that lives within my chest
(the soul that lives within my chest)
Just won’t allow me to turn out like the rest
(turn out like the rest)
This heart that’s driving me on and on and on
(on and on and on)
Has the same vision and it keeps me fucking strong
[Pre-chorus]
Love me or hate me
I walk alone
[Chorus]
Been called a monster, called a demon, called a freak
(called a freak)
I’m not an idol, not an angel, not a saint
(I’m not a saint)
I walk alone, I always have, I’m not ashamed
(not ashamed)
I’ve always been a living nightmare from the cradle to the grave
I walk alone
Been called a monster, called a demon, called a freak
(called a freak)
I’m not an idol, not an angel, not a saint
(I’m not a saint)
I walk alone, I always have, I’m not ashamed
(not ashamed)
A living nightmare from the cradle to the grave
(I walk alone)
Been called a monster, called a demon, called a freak
(called a freak)
I’m not an idol, not an angel, not a saint
(I’m not a saint)
I walk alone, I always have, I’m not ashamed
(not ashamed)
I’ll always be a living nightmare from the cradle to the grave
Sham Pain
[Verse one]
I never cared about the money, never really needed fame
You’d think it would have changed me but I’ve always been the same
My label tried to sue me, TMZ tried to screw me
Blabbermouth can fuckin’ suck it ’cause they never fuckin’ knew me
Everybody seems like they’re waiting for me to die
Talk shit behind my back, can’t look me in the eye
They say I’m overrated, that I should’ve already faded
Gave a shit about it all because I love to be so hated
[Chorus]
All in all it’s a good life
I got what I want
I can’t complain (I can’t complain)
I’m living the good life
A toast to you now
It’s all sham pain (it’s all sham pain)
[Verse two]
I barely get to eat and when I finally get to sleep
I get drug out of bed for another meet and greet
I shake the hand of every fan, put on a happy face
Spread so fuckin’ thin I’m all over the place
I hate riding on the bus, I hate flying on the planes
Sedate myself just to kill the pain
I have no life, forgot the hope
The whole thing’s turned into one big joke
[Chorus]
All in all it’s a good life
I got what I want
I can’t complain (I can’t complain)
I’m living the good life
A toast to you now
It’s all sham pain (it’s all sham pain)
[Breakdown]
I mean no disrespect but I ain’t picking up the check
Taking selfies on your phone while you’re breathing down my neck
It’s getting pretty fuckin’ old, and I’m almost nearly done
I’m glad that you were happy, here’s another number one
I’m living the good life, a toast to you now, it’s all sham pain
[Chorus]
All in all it’s a good life
I got what I want
I can’t complain (I can’t complain)
I’m living the good life
A toast to you now
It’s all sham pain (it’s all sham pain)
M.I.N.E (End This Way)
[Verse one]
Everybody hurts
Everybody bleeds
Everybody bends to fill a need
Everybody’s born with their own curse
And I’m not alone
Everybody cries
Everybody breathes
Everybody wants to feel they’re free
Deep inside I know what I am worth
A life of my own
[Pre-chorus]
It could have been much worse
But it should have been better
[Chorus]
I know I’d hurt you, deserted you
And now I see it clear
I pulled you closer, tighter
‘Cause I knew you’d disappear
[Verse two]
I just can’t compromise, apologize
There’s nothing you can say
We both knew
It would always end this way
Everybody pains
Everybody grieves
Everybody’s making off like thieves
Every soul’s aching for release
You’re not alone
Everybody lives
Everybody leaves
Everybody begs best on their knees
Everybody’s got the same disease
No one’s alone
[Pre-chorus]
It could have been much worse
But it should have been better
[Chorus]
I know I’d hurt you, deserted you
And now I see it clear
I pulled you closer, tighter
‘Cause I knew you’d disappear
[Breakdown]
I just can’t compromise, apologize
There’s nothing you can say
We both knew
It’d always end this way
Knew it’d end this way
We knew it’d end this way
[Chorus]
I know I’d hurt you, deserted you
And now I see it clear
I pulled you closer, tighter
‘Cause I knew you’d disappear
I just can’t compromise, apologize
There’s nothing you can say
We both knew
It would always end this way
We both know
It’d always end this way
We both knew
It would always end this way
Hell To Pay
[Verse one]
Feels like I’m running in place
A past I can’t erase
I’m breaking, breaking apart
(I know they’re after me)
It’s like I’m fading each day
They took it all away
Left nothing, nothing but scars
(they make it hard to breathe)
[Pre-chorus]
Don’t know where it went wrong
But my love for this is gone
[Chorus]
I tried to numb the pain
But I can’t get away
Hiding behind this disguise
The games I had to play
The hell I had to pay
Everything comes with a price
[Verse two]
You’re waiting for me to fail
That ship will never sail
Keep pulling and pushing me down
(but I just won’t let go)
I know you wish I was dead
I’m stuck inside your head
I’m taking and breaking your crown
(I’m better left alone)
[Pre-chorus]
Don’t know where it went wrong
But my love for this is gone
[Chorus]
I tried to numb the pain
But I can’t get away
Hiding behind this disguise
The games I had to play
The hell I had to pay
Everything comes with a price
I tried to numb the pain
But I can’t get away
Hiding behind this disguise
The games I had to play
The hell I had to pay
Everything comes with a price
Never Enough
[Verse one]
I’m so fed up with everyone around me
No one seems to care
I’m just so far gone and nothing’s gonna change
I’ll never be the same
It’s always do this, do that, everything they want to
I don’t wanna live that way (No!)
Every chance they get they’re always pushing me away
[Chorus]
It’s never enough, no it’s never enough
No matter what I say
It’s never enough, no it’s never enough
I’ll never be what you want me to be
[Verse two]
It’s all so messed up and no one ever listens
Everyone’s deranged
I’m just so fucked up and I’m never gonna change
I wanna lay it all to waste
They’re always say this, say that, nothing that you want to
I don’t wanna live that way (No!)
Every chance they get they’re always shoving me aside
[Chorus]
It’s never enough, no it’s never enough
No matter what I say
It’s never enough, no it’s never enough
I’ll never be what you want me to be
I’M DONE!
[Breakdown]
In the end we’re all just chalk lines on the concrete
Drawn only to be washed away
For the time that I’ve been given
I am what I am
I’d rather hate you for everything you are
Than ever love you for something you are not
I’d rather you hate me for everything I am
Than have you love me for something that I can’t
[Chorus]
It’s never enough, it’s never enough
No matter what I say
It’s never enough, no it’s never enough
No matter who I try to be
It’s never enough, no it’s never enough
No matter how I try to change
It’s never enough, never never enough
I’ll never be what you want me to be
Walk Away
[Verse one]
I’m sorry for the demon I’ve become
You should be sorry for the angel you are not
I apologize for the cruel things that I did
But I don’t regret one single word I said
[Chorus]
Just walk away make it easy on yourself
Just walk away please release me from this hell
Just walk away there’s just nothing left to feel
Just walk away pretend that none of this is real
[Verse two]
Could you forgive me if I told you that I cared?
Would you be sorry if I swore that I’d be there?
Please forgive me for laughing when you fall
I’m so sorry but I never cared at all
[Chorus]
Just walk away make it easy on yourself
Just walk away please release me from this hell
Just walk away there’s just nothing left to feel
Just walk away pretend that none of this is none of this is
Just walk away make it easy on us both
Just walk away there was never any hope
Just walk away you already know the deal
Just walk away, pretend that none of this was, none of this was real
Wrong Side of Heaven (Acoustic Version)
[Verse one]
I spoke to God today, and she said that she’s ashamed.
What have I become, what have I done?
I spoke to the Devil today, and he swears he’s not to blame.
And I understood, cause I feel the same.
[Chorus]
Arms wide open, I stand alone.
I’m no hero, and I’m not made of stone.
Right or wrong, I can hardly tell.
I’m on the wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side of hell.
The wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side, the righteous side of hell.
[Verse two]
I heard from God today, and she sounded just like me.
What have I done, and who have I become.
I saw the Devil today, and he looked a lot like me.
I looked away, I turned away!
[Chorus]
Arms wide open, I stand alone.
I’m no hero, and I’m not made of stone.
Right or wrong, I can hardly tell.
I’m on the wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side of hell.
The wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side, the righteous side of hell.
[Breakdown]
I’m not defending, downward descending,
Falling further and further away!
Getting closer every day!
I’m getting closer every day, to the end.
To the end, the end, the end,
I’m getting closer every day!
[Chorus]
Arms wide open, I stand alone.
I’m no hero, and I’m not made of stone.
Right or wrong, I can hardly tell.
I’m on the wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side of hell.
The wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side of hell.
The wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side, the righteous side of hell.
