10. Everything

I felt the moon today
Everything is drawn away
Water splashes on my skin it makes me dry
It makes no sense at all
Why didn't I get a call
When the whole world knew but me
There was nothing left to see

Everything reminds me
Of something from my past
Everything I know is in the past
And everything I see is now

Friends are friends until the end
How soon will it end today
Friends are friends close by
How soon they're gone away

An old man tries to run me off
As he stops to wheeze and cough
I seize the fruit
And steal his day away

Everything reminds me
Of something from my past
Everything I know is in the past
And everything I see is now
Everything I know is in the past
And everything I see is now
Everything I know is in the past
And everything I see is now
Everything I know is in the past
And everything I see is now

I saw the moon today
Everything just melts away
The sun beats upon my skin it makes me sweat
It makes no sense at all
Why didn't I hear the call
When the whole world saw but me
There was no where left to be

Everything reminds me
Of something from my past
Everything I know is in the past
And everything I see is now
Everything I know is in the past
And everything I see is now
Everything I know is in the past
And everything I see is now
Everything I know is in the past
And everything I see is now
Everything I know is in the past
And everything I see is now
Everything I see is, everything I see is, everything I see is now

11. Forkboy

[Originally recorded by Lard]

A fork is a cold shiny tool
To pierce, tear and ingest
Whoever has the fork in hand
Controls the meal of its choice
We're told the first few punctures
They're for our own good
Better carved up in pieces
Than blown up in the oven

Agh! Agh! Agh!

Forkboy
Flies by night on stolen fuel
To Santa Rosa, CA
Opens a fake employment office
"Want a job? Go get me drugs"
People desperate for work
Return to quite a surprise
Busted for intent to sell
Cops pay him a bounty
Forkboy skips town

Agh! Agh! Agh! Agh!

We came
We peed
We conquered
You bleed

The choice:
Fork Boy
Or Finger Food

Ugly joy
What does it replace?
Why wait
When you can eat yourself alive today

Junk bondage takeover glutton
Ready to bore in
Unfold his rotary blades inside
Pull the guts out and resell them
Buys out his next target
With the last one's pension funds
Thousands more thrown out of work
So Leona won't have to settle for a mint

Forkboy
Picked by the FBI
To be the black pied piper
After Dr. King died
Watches soap operas on TV
While 6 billion's disappears from HUD
Who are you working for
What did you hope to gain
Why do you hate your past
So much you destroy the ones you love

Forkboy!

1. Dream Scape

Living in dreams, day dreaming
Not in good shape for a life
Can't remember, why I like this feeling
Falling, falling on knives

Words can boost, words can break
Smiling sins can do no wrong
Say something good, if you speak
Good news never last too long

Forget the time too often
And I don't care to get some sleep
It's the skull I aim to soften
From there inside of you I'll creep

What did I expect to find
Dreams are not the same as life
More than the world inside my mind
Dreams empty into my life

What did I expect to find
Dreams are not the same as life
More than the world inside my mind
Dreams empty into my life

Heavy lids closing my eyes
Dreaming of falling asleep again
Blacken my visions of my
Life coming to a bitter end

Now surrounded all by strangers
Strangers I call friends
Help the species help to endanger
Darkness falling to play pretend

Forget the time too often
Inside your skull I aim to creep

See the soft spot in the skull

2. Chemical Noose

You think that everyone's against you
You think the world's a conspiracy
Life is a movie about you
We're all supporting your lead
You've been up for a week or two
You've done everything with nothing to do
Eyes so big how do you see
You've lost all your personality

Spun Vacation, Chemical Noose

Completely lost and right in front of me
Can't go to work, gotta stay clean
Spinning in circles take a soma
Now revive in a coma
Can't find any, can't find none
Oh my god the vacation's done
Wish you had a little bump to smoke
You smell the punchline and don't get the joke

Don't pick up the phone don't get the door
Gotta pick your face and do some more
Hallucination entertaining you
Wish you could eat, sleep, or find something to do

Fly, like a sigh
No way to save yourself inside
Sleep, like it's time
Try to remind yourself
One more time
Sleep, like it's time
No way to hold it down
It's time to die

Spun Vacation, Chemical Noose
Broken Headlight, Chemical Noose

3. Promise Keepers

Shelters full out on the streets tonight
Swollen shut black eyes burning bright
Folded arms hold everything she's ever owned
Folded arms holding every broken bone

Hard to stand on broken feet below the ground
The silent face that screams a shattered sound
More to the eye than another knotted fist
Slash the lips that were once longed to be kissed

Promise keepers nothing cheaper, yeah
Promise to keep her digging deeper

One strong smile reminds looks can deceive
If you're strong enough to bleed
You're strong enough to leave
Running away again down the same short hall
The face she used to have stares from these walls

Burn the rope while tying up loose ends
Introduced to the family secret again
First step out is up then you start to walk
Take first salt by grain then by block

Promise keepers nothing cheaper
Promise to keep her digging deeper
Promise keepers nothing cheaper
I promise to keep her digging deep

If you get the guts you gotta hold em tight
You've got wings spread them out, take flight
Hard to stand on broken feet below the ground
The silent face that screams a shattered sound

Promise keepers nothing cheaper
Promise to keep her digging deeper
Promise keepers nothing cheaper
I promise to keep her digging deeper

4. Liquid Noose

I skinned hope, then cut the rope
And watched you fall into my show

Thought I cared, feeling impaired
Cut yourself when no one cared

I'm calling out, attention mounts
This stowaway's ship is going down

Been running blind, running behind
Just very violently killing time

All I want from you is another round
Slamming faster just to hit the ground
Tip another glass just to get me loose
Tying on another big liquid noose

Served on ice, serving you sliced
Ground up men or were they mice

When it gets way down, to nothing or not
Way beneath less than what you've got

All I want from you is another round
Slamming faster just to hit the ground
Tip another glass just to get me loose
Tying on another big liquid noose

Round my neck, round my back
Swallow hard as the end's attached

Here's blood in your eye, the tension taken
Who are you to say that I'm forsaken

All I want from you is another round
Slamming faster just to hit the ground
Tip another glass just to get me loose
Tying on another big liquid noose

All I want from you is another round
Slamming faster just to hit the ground
Tip another glass just to get me loose
Tying on another big liquid noose

Liquid Noose

5. Falling

I am falling feel the pain
Clear the sidewalk see the stain
I will suffer nevermore
I have found an open door

I will soon have everything I've ever wanted
Revenge on my enemies will they be haunted
No worries, no feelings, no stress or fear
A permanent part of this spot right here

The wind in my face
It screams in my ear
Falling faster no one here

I will soon have time to rest and time to die
A speeding slab of concrete hits me in the eye
Broken bones that I won't get the chance to feel
I'll never cry or bitch or hurt or heal

I'm falling sirens calling
Everyone is watching me
I'm crawling lonliness mauling
Watching over me

I'm falling sirens calling
Everybody's watching me
I'm crawling lonliness mauling
Watching over me

I will soon have everything I've ever wanted
Revenge on my enemies will they be haunted
No worries, no feelings, no stress or fear
A permanent part of this spot right here

I'm falling sirens calling
Everyone is watching me
I'm crawling lonliness mauling
Watching over me

I'm falling sirens calling
Everybody's watching me
I'm crawling lonliness mauling
Watching over me

6. Fuckers

Righteous fucks
You think you are on top of the world
The little people spit down on you
You'll feel trying to look yourself in the eyes

Bleed you fuckers bleed
Die you fuckers die
I'll cut all your fuckin throats
So brace your fuckin self

Go right ahead you worthless gem, enjoy the laugh
I hope you choke on yourself in the end
You'll never get up on me
I won't subscribe
And I'll recognize

How fucked up you really are
The way you love to be
Self-centered selfish piece of shit
Another morning shows and nothing changes

You're death in everyone's eyes,
You'd be lucky to die
You fucked up everyone's life,
That comes as no surprise
You have to be taken out,
Instead you stay alive

You thrive on breaking their lives
Your feel tries to poke me in the eyes

Entertaining yourself
Makes you closer to hell

You're death in everyone's eyes,
You'd be lucky to die
You fucked up everyone's life,
That comes as no surprise, no surprise
You're death in everyone's eyes
You fucked up everyone's life
You have to be taken out,
Instead you stay alive

Worthless, useless, no good gimp
Another faceless, vileless pile
You're miserable, despicable, dismal, lovable, intolerable
And you don't give a shit
I despise, you despise, you recognize, gouge your eyes
Ah fuck you
Devil eyes, two lies in her eyes, visualize parasites,
A blacker demise

You're still a righteous fuck
Now down at the bottom of the world
Looking at everyone spit down on you
And there's nothing you can fuckin do

You're death in everyone's eyes,
You'd be lucky to die
You fucked up everyone's lives,
That comes as no surprise, no surprise
You're death in everyone's eyes
You fucked up everyone's lives
Make no mistakes about it
This time you're dead

7. Brain Dead

How much time will it take
Till I know how much longer

How many beatings do I have to take
Till I know I am stronger

How much space will it take
Till I know where I am

How many times do I have to do
Before I know I can

How much wasted energy is flowing through your head
How many cells must die before you're legally
Brain dead
How much wasted energy is flowing through your mind
How many cells must die before you're legally
Brain dead this time

How much farther do I have to go
Before I know I'm there

How many tears do I have to shed
Before I show I care

How much brightness can I stand
Before I see the light

How many wrongs must I have to do
Before I get it right

How much wasted energy is flowing through your head
How many cells must die before you're legally
Brain dead
How much wasted energy is flowing through your mind
How many cells must die before you're legally
Brain dead this time

How much space will I waste
Till I know where I am

How many times do I have to do
Before I know I can

How much wasted energy is flowing through your head
How many cells must die before you're legally
Brain dead
How much wasted energy is flowing through your mind
How many cells must die before you're finally dead, you're finally dead
How much wasted energy is flowing through your mind
How many cells must die before you're legally
Brain dead this time
Brain dead this time
Brain dead this time
