Sometimes I feel like the whole world hates me
Sometimes I feel like the whole world hates me
But I don’t mind
I don’t mind
I was born for a different time
So go ahead now and confess your love
Tell me what you’re dreaming of
I’ll drink again from the venom you pour
Standing here alone when you clear the floor
You think in lies you can be yourself
But you’re just playing someone else
I’ve seen the light behind your eyes
Get darker as the time goes by
Sometimes I feel like the whole world hates me
Sometimes I feel like the whole world hates me
But I don’t mind
I don’t mind
I was born for a different time
Sometimes I feel like the die is cast
It doesn’t matter how you act
But I don’t mind
I don’t mind
I was born for a different time
I know you’re biding your time listening
We’re growing apart that’s the way it’s been
But I’m standing clear just waiting here
However this ends I won’t disappear
You think in lies you can be yourself
But you’re just playing someone else
I’ve seen the light behind your eyes
Get darker as the time goes by
Sometimes I feel like the whole world hates me
Sometimes I feel like the whole world hates me
But I don’t mind (I don’t mind)
I don’t mind (I don’t mind)
I was born for a different time
Sometimes I feel like the die is cast
It doesn’t matter how you act
But I don’t mind (I don’t mind)
I don’t mind (I don’t mind)
I was born for a different time
I was born for a different time
I was born for a different time

Love and rebellion
Swinging around in my mind
I’m afraid of the past
And I can’t see what’s behind
Show me a night time
A night time without dreams
And I hope
When I wake up
Things will not be as bad as they seem
Where are the answers?
Where are the answers?
Love and rebellion
Swinging around in my head
I’m afraid of the past
And I can’t see what’s ahead
Show me a night time
A night time without dreams
And I hope
When I wake up
Things will not be as bad
Not be as bad as they seem
Not be as bad as they seem
Not be as bad as they seem
Not be as bad as they seem
Not be as bad as they seem
Where are the answers?
I know the way it goes
So take it slow
There are demons there are ghosts
In this world you know
If I could see inside your head
Would there a mind for peace or would you want revenge instead
Want revenge instead so
Where are the answers?
Where are the answers?
Love and rebellion
Spinning around in my mind
I’m afraid of the past
But I can’t take you with me this time
Show me a night time
A night time without dreams
And I hope
When I wake up
Things will not be as bad as they seem
Where are the answers?
I know the way it goes
So take it slow
There are demons there are ghosts
In this world you know
If I could see inside your head
Would there a mind for peace or would you want revenge instead
Want revenge instead so
Where are the answers?
Where are the answers?

Nice Girl

If you listen to that crap
Its guaranteed to make you go mad
But you go and listen to that crap
All night long
If you tranquilize your mind
Walking around thinking like it’s fine
But you’re just a walking landmine
Tell me am I wrong?
I don’t wanna know your birthday
I don’t wanna know your name
I just wanna know what changed you
From a nice girl
To one that’s insane
If you’re lying in the trash
Scratching at your virtue like a rash
You better have a pretty good mask
To help you get along
If you’re making up the rules
Quoting from the ignorance of fools
Quilted on the banners of your schools
Tell me what went wrong?
I don’t wanna know your birthday
I don’t wanna know your name
I just wanna know what changed you
From a nice girl
To one that’s insane
If I listen to this crap
Its guaranteed to make me go mad
But I go and listen to this crap
All night long
If I tranquilize my mind
Walking around thinking like it’s fine
But I’m just a walking landmine
Tell me am I wrong
I don’t wanna know your birthday
I don’t wanna know your name
I just wanna know what changed you
From a nice girl
To one that’s insane

Choking

Am I feeling alright?
You must be joking
You must be joking
I feel like I’m choking
White Halls, Last calls
Color shines through the window
It’s not a rainbow
Leads to tomorrow
I’m on the way when I’m there I will call you
Inside I’m in disrepair but I’ll ask you
I can’t begin to be fair but I’ll tell you
I love you
Half of what I’m feeling reads like a novel
I never got through
I never meant to
Always sideways leaning what have we come to
It’s suffocating
Always pretending
I’m on the way when I’m there I will call you
Inside I’m in disrepair but I’ll ask you
I can’t begin to be fair but I’ll tell you
I love you
Onward
Forward
I don’t trust you now at all
Always forward
I don’t trust you now at all
Onward
Forward
I don’t trust you now at all
Always forward
I don’t trust you now at all

95 Reasons
05:23

Fool on the throne and a thorn in your side
All disappear like the sun at night
Don’t be so rash you can hold up here
Wait for your anger to disappear
She shines a light it’s a war this time
Wanna believe in the things she lies
Pick up your dime it’s a sin to try
Righting the wrongs that the Lord made right
Keep pouring keep on pouring wine
So I can forget the circling skies and the 95 reasons to try
Keep dancing keep on wasting time
So I can forget the head on the door the the 95 reasons before
The head on the door and the 95 reasons before
Evening has come and the wolf at your door
Baring her teeth at the blood on the floor
Smile on a mask as she comes inside
Every bit better to eat you alive
Pulls you in close as you ask of her teeth
Every bit better to drag you beneath
Tame as a lamb as you play her hand
Stretching your neck to the noose again
Keep pouring keep on pouring wine
So I can forget the head on the door the the 95 reasons before
Keep dancing keep on wasting time
So I can forget the circling skies and the 95 reasons to try
The circling skies and the 95 reasons
Keep pouring
Keep pouring
Keep pouring
Keep pouring
Keep pouring
Keep pouring
Keep pouring
Pouring wine
Keep pouring keep on pouring wine
So I can forget the head on the door the the 95 reasons before
Keep dancing keep on wasting time
So I can forget the circling skies and the 95 reasons to try
The circling skies and the 95 reasons to try
Keep pouring keep on pouring (wine)
Keep pouring keep on pouring (wine)
Keep pouring keep on pouring (wine)
Keep pouring keep on pouring (wine)
Keep pouring keep on pouring (wine)
Keep pouring keep on pouring (wine)
Keep pouring keep on pouring (wine)
Keep pouring keep on pouring wine

Anytime

Today something came to me
Tonight I’m afraid of myself
And I feel dark thoughts running through my mind
I must let you go this time
Hands are tied by fate’s design
No out this time
Like a sigh
Like a word that leave your lips
Before you realize
You just crossed your line
Peace inside
Reach into me don’t you realize?
I wanted this to die
Anytime now
Anytime now
Anytime now
Anytime now
Anytime now
Anytime now
Anytime you’re looking for a change in this life
Anytime now
Anytime now
Anytime now
Anytime now
Anytime now
Anytime now
Anytime you’re looking for a change in this life

Albatross

What’s a win?
What’s a loss?
When you count up the fucking cost
When there’s such hurt
And there’s such pain
And I think we’re going backwards again
I try and see through the eyes of the Lord but I’m coming up short
When will we stop spreading all of our shit on each other’s shores
It’s so hard
Moving on
When you’re wading through so many wrongs
The children cry
The people bled
Always the same in every single book I’ve read
I try and see through the eyes of the Lord but I’m coming up short
When will we stop spreading all of our shit on each other’s shores
We live in the year of the poison ash
When every would be prophet strikes another match
There’s a message somewhere in this thread
Unless we learn how to love each other we might as well be dead
Burning the flag
Bury the cross
You’re making friends with an albatross
And when he swoops
Gather your pain
You’ll trade your future for an hour of revenge
I try and see through the eyes of the Lord but I’m coming up short
When will we stop spreading all of our shit on each other’s shores
I try and see through the eyes of the Lord but I’m coming up short
When will we stop spreading all of our shit on each other’s shores

I tried to cry
With the wind blowing in my eyes
But my heart was cold
My tears were dry
And the best I could do was sigh
The sky was dry
So I bought up a little water
But in the flood I had to sell
For a penny on the dollar
Grief in motion
Sowed with devotion
Gets you nothing in this life
Your children cry
And you stoop down to dry their eyes
But don’t expect the same from them
When the time comes to pass the fire
I set my gaze
On visions of purple haze
But the strings of my guitar were never
Worthy of singing that way
Here goes anyway
Grief in motion
Sowed with devotion
Gets you nothing in this life
Your children cry
And you reach up to dry their eyes
But don’t expect the same from them
When the time comes to pass the fire
I kneeled I prayed
That I’d win that my trials be light
But the Lord He said
It’s not about how you win, it’s about how you fight
