Hanging out, we're chilling on a Saturday night
and every time I thought that man, how it feels so right
So we go on with doing how the way that it's been
Never felt this much stuff about other women
Maybe once or even twice I called you love of my life
I never though that you would put me through so much strife
and I'm thinking back now on everything that you said
Damn, I'd give anything to get out of my head – but
You said
Baby, let's be together
You said
Hey you, I'll let you down never
Who said
There's nothing, no why or how
You said
These words you can't take them back now
I was working on a way to make myself feel alright
Then ole' you came along and I though, maybe I might
I mean you've been there this whole time, I thought that it'd be good
But as I look back on us now I think maybe I should
I should have done this (yeah)
I should have done that (yeah)
I think that your new man's a dirty little rat
Now as I kick back here and lie down in my bed
I'll look back and think on everything you ever said
You said
Hey my kiss, yeah, that means yes
You said
Baby then take off my dress
You said
Oh dear, you feel just like my brother
I said
Fuck you then, you're just another one

Out in the cold, dark, lonely winter
I used to find peace in the warmth of your heart
Now how is my heart still in one piece?
Our love was a flame, but now as the cool rain kisses
You’ll go your own way without no shame
There’s one thing I miss here – it’s your love
‘Cause I still remember how we used to be
It’s something that’s always been missing in me
Can’t watch you throw it away this time
Those feelings I held have been replaced
Because of her though, I’m always bracing for the worst
I hope that I’ve found me a good one
But now with it you and me oh love
No lyrics and no verse will ever help me explain these things
I think I’m getting deeper in your love
All that I want is to know what it’s like
To be given love and not spite
How will you show me?
Chorus:
Where are we going?
‘Cause where I’ve been has always been empty
We used to laugh, we used to love
You dropped upon me like a little dove
Whisper words right in my ear
“I’ll show you to safety, I’ll make it clear”
It’s in her eyes, and the way she smiles
From fields of green to hearts of fire
Your love has colored my soul’s desire
You make me feel like it’s real
Into the spring where the blossoms are new
The ground is wet from the settling dew
All that I wanted was to know what it’s like
I’d be given love and not spite
How in the hell did you show me?
‘Cause I still remember how we used to be
It’s something that’s always been missing in me
Fill me up, get me back in line
Chorus

Beast

Might I spend some time with you?
Make your hell real, and mine will be too
Fill me up with despair
Shoot right through my head, find if I really care
You’re the beast inside of my head
I flick the hammer, and you’ll be dead
Why I live with you’s a shame
The devil and God – naked one and the same
Fused together into pain
Shave your spirit off, down against the grain
Fight to get back to my world
Souls of black, man, darkness you’ve unfurled
Sweetest thing I’ll ever taste
Are the tears you shed as you fall down disgraced
You’re the beast inside of my head
I flick the hammer, and you’ll be dead
You’re the beast inside of my brain
Swallow hard, because I’ve gone insane
Wake up now I’ve overcome
My vicious nightmare has been all undone
But my freedom isn’t free
I wake again to find out that you’re still haunting me
You’re the beast inside of my head
I flick the hammer, and you’ll be dead
You’re the beast inside of my brain
Swallow hard, you stupid motherfucker
Because I’ve gone insane
You’re the beast inside of my head
And now
you’re
dead

I'm Gone

Tried and tried, over and over
It'll be forever 'fore I give in
Shoot me down, pick me up
Shake off the dust, and I'll do it again
If I stick this out, will you stick me up?
Lead feels like just the way for me
I won't cry, just pass me by
Give me one last grin as you watch me go
Chorus (x2):
Go ahead and give me your best shot
You won't get me for what I'm not
I'm already gone (x3)
Breakdown:
Maybe it's not best for me
Well I know
You told me what's best for me
Well I know
I tried and tried, over and over
It'll be forever 'fore I give in
Shoot me down, pick me up
Shake off the dust, and I'll do it again
If I stick this out, will you stick me up?
Hell feels like just the place for me
I won't cry, just pass me by
Give me one last grin as you watch me go
Chorus (x2)
Breakdown

Why
02:45

Say I should believe in you
Why? You’re not believing too
What’s there to believe in lies?
Iago, Judas, priestmen go
What’s it mean, you ought to know
Someday, everybody dies.
We’re not saying what we’re believing now
You’ve got a lotta grit to ask what’s on my mind
We’re not playing the game you want us to
What’s the point in starting playing if we’re starting behind
Gasoline, an open flame
Now there’s no one else to blame
Open casket, ringing bells
You burnt the bridge, I watched it go
Now I know I’m on my own
Send me to my perfect hell
We’re not saying what we’re believing now
You’ve got a lotta grit to ask what’s on my mind
We’re not playing the game you want us to
What’s the point in starting playing if we’re starting behind
You always wanted me to think traditionally
Or maybe to conform to society
And every time that I think of it
It makes me scream it makes me scream
I don't care what you want
I don't care what you do
I just do what I want
I don't do what I should
and I like it
and what I believe

The looks I’m getting don’t even matter now, my brother
All I’m waiting for is to reunite with my other
To have the good times return, to live again, the same
We’ll burn the city down when our sparks ignite into flame
Bringing it all back to where we left it in a foggy haze
And now that we’re back in business, I’m missing the good old days
The sun shined brighter and the leaves crunched under our feet
When nothing else in the world could ever even try to compete
Bring me back, bring me back
Wipe away my tears and swallow my pride
I can’t do it myself, man, you know that I’ve tried
Bring us back, why don’t you bring yourself back?
Wipe away your tears and swallow your pride
I’m glad I finally found out about the other side of you
Bring me back, bring me back
Wipe away my tears and swallow my pride
I can’t do it myself, man, you know that I’ve tried
Can’t have these days back, won’t see these days again
You know I miss the way that things were
Back when you were my best friend
I won’t forget your name – if you remember mine
Keep my memory close
To bring us back in time
Bring us back, why don’t you bring yourself back?
Wipe away your tears and swallow your pride
I’m glad I finally found out about the other side of you
I’m glad I finally found out about the other side of you
