East Jesus Nowhere

Raise your hands now to testify
Your confession will be crucified
You’re a sacrificial suicide
Like a dog that’s been sodomized
Stand up! All the white boys
Sit down! And the black girls
You’re the soldiers of the new world

Put your faith in a miracle
And it’s non-denominational
Join the choir we will be singing
In the church of wishful thinking

A fire burns today
Of blasphemy and genocide
The sirens of decay
Will infiltrate the faith fanatics

Oh, bless me Lord for I have sinned
It’s been a lifetime since I last confessed
I threw my crutches in “the river of a shadow of doubt”
And I’ll be dressed up in my Sunday best

Say a prayer for the family
Drop a coin for humanity
Ain’t this uniform so flattering?
I never asked you a god-damned thing

A fire burns today
Of blasphemy and genocide
The sirens of decay
Will infiltrate the faith fanatics

Don’t test me
Second guess me
Protest me
You will disappear

I want to know who’s allowed to breed
All the dogs who never learned to read
Missionary politicians
And the cops of a new religion

A fire burns today
Of blasphemy and genocide
The sirens of decay
Will infiltrate the inside

Bitch Be Gone

I’m taking down all my enemies ’cause they’re all so fucking useless
A bunch of shit talking drama queens and they’re all filled with excuses
I wanna find me a better scene where it’s not the same opinion
I’d rather go to a funeral than to this high school reunion

Hanging out all by myself, at least I make good company
Hey, isn’t that a whatshisface that I see walking down the street
I’m gonna hide in the shadows ’cause I really got nothing to say
We never had anything in common and I never liked you anyway

Never Me

How could he know this new dawn’s light
Would change his life forever?
Set sail to sea but pulled off course
By the light of golden treasure

Was he the one causing pain
With his careless dreaming?
Been afraid, always afraid
Of the things he’s feeling
He could just be gone
He would just sail on
He’ll just sail on

How can I be lost
If I’ve got nowhere to go?
Search for seas of gold
How come it’s got so cold?
How can I be lost
In remembrance I relive
And how can I blame you
When it’s me I can’t forgive?

These days drift on inside a fog
It’s thick and suffocating
This sinking life, outside it’s hell
Inside intoxicating
He’s run aground like his life
Water much too shallow
Slipping fast down with his ship
Fading in the shadows now

A castaway
They’ve all gone away
They’ve gone away

How can I be lost
If I’ve got nowhere to go?
Search for seas of gold
How come it’s got so cold?
How can I be lost
In remembrance I relive
And how can I blame you
When it’s me I can’t forgive?

Forgive me, forgive me not
Forgive me, forgive me not
Forgive me, forgive me not
Forgive me, forgive me
Why can’t I forgive me?

Never Free

Lay beside me, tell me what they’ve done
Speak the words I wanna hear, to make my demons run
The door is locked now, but it’s opened if you’re true
If you can understand the me, then I can understand the you

Lay beside me, under wicked sky
Through black of day, dark of night, we share this paralyze
The door cracks open, but there’s no sun shining through
Black heart scarring darker still, but there’s no sun shining through
No, there’s no sun shining through
No, there’s no sun shining…

What I’ve felt, what I’ve known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you?

What I’ve felt, what I’ve known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there? ‘Cause I’m the one who waits for you
Or are you unforgiven, too?

Come lay beside me, this won’t hurt, I swear
She loves me not, she loves me still, but she’ll never love again
She lay beside me, but she’ll be there when I’m gone
Black heart scarring darker still, yes, she’ll be there when I’m gone
Yes, she’ll be there when I’m gone
Dead sure she’ll be there…

What I’ve felt, what I’ve known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you?

What I’ve felt, what I’ve known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there? ‘Cause I’m the one who waits for you
Or are you unforgiven, too?

Lay beside me, tell me what I’ve done
The door is closed, so are your eyes
But now I see the sun, now I see the sun
Yes, now I see it

What I’ve felt, what I’ve known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you?

What I’ve felt, what I’ve known
So sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there? ‘Cause I’m the one who waits,
The one who waits for you…

Oh, what I’ve felt, what I’ve known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you?

Oh, what I’ve felt…
Oh, what I’ve known…

I take this key
And I bury it in you
Because you’re unforgiven, too

Sabbra Cadabra

Feel so good, I feel so fine
Love that little lady always on my mind
She gives me lovin’ every night and day
Never gonna leave her, never goin’ away

Someone to love me
You know, she makes me feel alright
Someone to need me
Love me every single night

Feel so happy since I met that girl
When we’re making love it’s something out of this world
Feels so good to know that she’s all mine
Gonna love that woman ’til the end of time

Someone to live for
Love me ’til the end of time
She makes me feel happy
It’s good to know that she’s all mine

I am the world that hides
The universal secret of all time
Destruction of the empty spaces
Is my one and only crime
I’ve lived a thousand times
I found out what it means to be believed
The thoughts and images
The unborn child that never was conceived
You gotta believe me

Hey! I’m talking to you
Well, I know its hard for you
To know the reason why
And I know you’ll understand
More when it’s time to die

I don’t believe the life you have
Will be the only one
You have to let your body sleep
To let your soul live on. Ha ha!

Feel so happy since I met that girl
When we’re making love it’s something out of this world
Feels so good to know that she’s all mine
Gonna love that woman ’til the end of time

Someone to live for
Love me ’til the end of time
oh, she makes me feel happy
It’s good to know that she’s all mine

Cherry Pie

She’s my cherry pie
Cool drink of water such a sweet surprise
Tastes so good make a grown man cry
Sweet Cherry Pie

Well, swingin’ on the front porch, swingin’ on the lawn
Swingin’ where we want ’cause there ain’t nobody home
Swingin’ to the left and swingin’ to the right
If I think about baseball I’ll swing all night, yeah

Swingin’ in the living room, swingin’ in the kitchen
Most folks don’t ’cause they’re too busy bitchin’
Swingin’ in there ’cause she wanted me to feed her
So I mixed up the batter and she licked the beater

I scream, you scream, we all scream for her
Don’t even try ’cause you can’t ignore her

Swingin’ to the drums, swingin’ to guitar
Swingin’ to the bass in the back of my car
Ain’t got money, ain’t got no gas
But we’ll bet where we’re goin’ if we swing real fast

Swingin’ in the bathroom, swingin’ on the floor
Swingin’ so hard we forgot to lock the door
In walks her daddy standin’ six foot four
He said you ain’t gonna swing with my daughter no more

She’s my cherry pie
Cool drink of water such a sweet surprise
Tastes so good make a grown man cry
Sweet cherry pie

She’s my cherry pie
Put a smile on your face ten miles wide
Looks so good bring a tear to your eye
Sweet cherry pie

Battery

Lashing out the action, returning the reaction
Weak are ripped and torn away
Hypnotizing power, crushing all that cower
Battery is here to stay

Crushing all deceivers, mashing non-believers
Never-ending potency
Hungry violence-seeker, feeding off the weaker
Breeding on insanity

Circle of destruction, hammer comes crushing
Powerhouse of energy
Whipping up a fury, dominating flurry
We create the battery

Smashing through the boundaries
Lunacy has found me
Cannot stop the battery
Pounding out aggression
Turns into obsession
Cannot kill the battery

Cannot kill the family
Battery is found in me

Nothing Else Matters

So close no matter how far
Couldn’t be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters

Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don’t just say
And nothing else matters

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
But I know

So close no matter how far
Couldn’t be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
But I know

I never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don’t just say
And nothing else matters

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they say
Never cared for games they play
Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
And I know

So close no matter how far
Couldn’t be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
No, nothing else matters

F.O.D.

Something’s on my mind
It’s been for quite some time
This time I’m on to you
So where’s the other face?
The face I heard before
Your head trip’s boring me

Let’s nuke the bridge we torched
Two thousand times before
This time we’ll blast it all to hell
I’ve had this burning in my guts now for so long
My belly’s aching now to say

Stuck down in a rut
Of dislogic and smut
A side of you well hid
Well, it’s all said and done
It’s real and it’s been fun
But was it all real fun?

Let’s nuke the bridge we torched
Two thousand times before
This time we’ll blast it all to hell
I’ve felt this burning in my guts now for so long
My belly’s aching now to say…

You’re just… a fuck
I can’t explain it ’cause I think you suck
I’m takin’ pride
In telling you to fuck off and die

I’ve had this burning in my guts now for so long
My belly’s aching now to say
I’m taking pleasure in announcing this to you
So listen up ’cause you might miss (as you bite THIS!)

You’re just… a fuck
I can’t explain it ’cause I think you suck
I’m takin’ pride
In telling you to fuck off and die

Saints and Sinners

Grown from a seed of hope I’ve never known
Been raised by the surroundings of a home so cold
If I only knew what I know

I’ll shake my fist up to the sky
Just keeping my dreams alive
I’m one part saint and two part sinner
And the last part is still on the line

We pray even when we know nobody cares
And make everything we know turn into fear and then disappear
If I only knew what I know

I’ll shake my fist up to the sky
Just keeping my dreams alive
I’m one part saint and two part sinner
And the last part is still on the line
