……………………………………break my heart……………………….. it's when you come back to bed you don't know i'm awake and you slip your left hand in mine when you're cradling my head kissing me till i break then we spoon your chest to my spine or when we walk down the beach heaven sent us the moon and the sand sticks to our skin when the language you teach stabs like a harpoon watching your lips makes me spin when you break my heart go on and break it right baby break my heart do it to me it's alright take your time and make me put up a good fight baby break my heart tonight and now i walk down the street i see us when we first met when you stared into my soul i surrendered defeat i gave up and i let you take me and make me whole and now i turn down the bed and i remember how drunk i felt without one drink now i know this should end when every time my hearts sunk my words resound that's when i think break my heart go on and break it right baby break my heart do it to me it's alright take your time and make me put up a good fight baby break my heart tonight i'm not aware of where i'm going to and i'm not aware of where you're been and been through one thing i know is true is how i'm missing you you had me from the start and now that we're apart please oh break my heart do it to me it's alright take your time and make me put up a good fight baby break my heart break my heart and i'll take you from inside and i'll make my heart forget that you're not mine wake me up forsaking all we had that night and i'll break your heart this time i'll make you mine you're gonna put up a good fight but i'll break your heart like mine

Mindkiller 09:39
…………………………………………mindkiller…………………………. i'll kill your mind unless you face me pass me through you every time when i'm gone only you'll remain the muse released bliss you seek is now alive i hold to you to keep you safe keep darkness away i'll save you but without me you'd be so free open heart learn to die i lead to war, disaster, confusion, deception no solution in religion utter mantras, litanys, meditations, all in efforts to dispel me not enough to simply run away you gotta find me and face me don't wanna be afraid anymore? want this fear to go away? right now takes a little bit of effort but it's all worth it is all for the better no matter how scary the voices the chains and the shadows take a deep breath and know the dream will be over don't wanna be afraid anymore? want this fear to go away? i hoped that i'd see this sooner than now thought there'd be some way of understanding somehow don't know what i am, don't know what we are lost my will to keep on fighting my internal war the battle's not over….. you say i'm not needed you say you're just fine i got a message for you it says otherwise all this time you're thinking that everything's alright well if everything's alright then alright i'll leave you i'm not the monster under your bed i'm the friend you're afraid of, keeps you from death don't forget or forsake me take me away embrace me confess to me all you are they say let it go let it go let it go they say let it go but they don't know they're just repeating repeating repeating repeating don't hate them it's all they know this is not the way we were meant to live we could be so much more if we chose love not fear open into another heart is clear besides you there is no other She'll kill your mind unless you face her pass her through you every time when she's gone only you'll remain your heart revealed your love is free the muse released the bliss you seek And everything is now alive………

Assassin 07:41
…………………………..assassin………………………….. i killed you in the middle of the night dead to a cold cold world you tried to stop my hand like brick walls stop bad wolves i took the life out of you it's just what i was told to do i feel no regret, feel no emotion simply the instrument of death just a job to me, can't you see? we're all going to die anyway you think that i'm a monster living life without a soul that life is sacred and i'm profane but what you don't see is where we'll be at the end of this road 6/8 you need to know who i am i'm not the man you thought me to be i'm a killer but not the devil not a saint nor an angel i'm an assassin i'll make it quick no time to think no reaction and now you're gone no aggression in the action just a simple swift end you've been silenced without a fight cold wind is the only eye to another unnoticed crime blood melts snow and now i'll go to be with you in this starry night ****Chorus 2x******

Remember Me 06:18
………………………………………………remember me………………………….. i know you'll cry so i won't bother to try to convince you not to shed a tear so instead i'll just say This isn't your fault there's nothing you could have done please don't try to blame yourself you did everything you could but everything just wasn't enough this is good bye this is good bye this is good bye this is my final song the last you'll hear from me i'm not sure if death is the end in life nothing really ends but this will be the start of something new now i'm gone i'm really gone i ask one thing…. remember all of me remember everything even the darkest things when you need me know that i'm right there in your memories in your heart in your memories in your heart in your memories in your heart

Life Undone 06:20
-----life undone--------- look at everything i've done spent my whole life learning my whole life opening up and this, this is what i get you always kill the good ones, the bad guys get to stay i don't see the point i gave it all up for you i hoped you'd find the light i just wanted us to be free everybody keeps on stopping me i've replaced the sun i didn't want this i tried to stop it all the good i've done will be forgotten my life undone and now we're here, at the end, and you kill me too soon and for what? i didn't do it so you could find utopia just helping you find some inner peace you always kill the good ones, the bad guys get to stay I'm trying to make you see this is not okay i've replaced the sun i didn't want this i tried to stop it all the good i've done will be forgotten my life undone two thousand years later at the end of the age my story so wrong when i never wanted this at all i'm just a man don't believe the stories they're based on old fairy tales but i'm none of it i'm just a man a life of symbols a life of love a night of pain a gift of hope

Stuff 07:33
……………………………………………stuff……………………. i need more stuff i need it i need it now gotta fix this craving gotta scratch this itch i need more.. tell me where tell me how i can get more, baby cuz i ain't happy show me the way the way to fill me up there's a sale today a sale of souls we've sold our spirits, baby for higher profits we were warned before but we weren't listening senses under siege we couldn't pay attention we can't keep living this way but you know we'll keep on trying until it's too late too late too late to turn back turn back gotta change it now gotta change things right now cuz we're running out of time and we don't even know it don't forget the way things used to be this moment in time is gonna fade into memory what we call sacred has become an excuse to fill up our lives with more material i'll just close my eyes pretending to celebrate the holy while worshipping the purchase something im' sure that christ would never do change your name you don't deserve it watching the screens with the pretty pretty people in their pretty little clothes tell me to get these pretty things as soon as the product hits the line we'll go out and waste our time *****chorus***** presents and packages don't do much for me love and forgiveness have much greater meaning tolerance, kindness, compassion and peace these are a few of my favorite things when my heart breaks, when the earth shakes when the world's gone mad if we only learned some of my favorite things maybe this world wouldn't be so bad

Alone 11:12
…………………………………….alone……………………………………. please talk to me say hello say anything i'm here i'll be drinking i think i need you though i'm sure you'll never need me and oh i'm loving you so but i don't even know a single thing about you but oh i don't want to go and i'll walk slow to see if you are looking i'm so scared you'll shut me down so instead of speaking i'll make excuses and drink more beer and i'm so afraid of being alone i'm willing to go so low that i'd stay with someone i loathe only to ensure i'm never alone thousands of people surrounding me why do i feel so alone? when i go to bed my stomach drops inside me a dark black hole i try all day to fill it with work and entertainment and when it's done i cry and shake for i can't seem to cope i was so scared of being alone i was ready to fall so low then i saw another way to go love. where is love? in the space between ideas and words emotion and music heart and the head in those moments in our lives when we feel so alone it holds us together and finally for the first time i think i start to see all the love i'll ever need has been trapped inside of me i'm tying up the threads that connect us all together and what i've finally found is there's no other than us i was so scared of being alone i was ready to fall so low then i saw another way to go love. where is love? in the space between ideas and words emotion and music heart and the head in those moments in our lives when we feel so alone it holds us together all of you is all of me everything you are is everything i hope to be now

mustache ride Verse 1 on the road down south i met an old man i approached him from behind he turned around, gave me a frown, and said, "son, what's on your mind?" but i couldn't say a single word because his mustache made me blind for the lip-warmer this old fella possessed well it was one of a kind Chorus! mustache ride now i've got one i'm everywhere mustache ride how i love you my sweet lip hair mustache ride spent my life searching for the perfect beard now i've got it i'm a sight to be feared mustache ride mustache ride Verse 2 went up to my darling and gave her a kiss i think she almost died from all the love, joy, elation and excitement that she felt inside so i took her for a spin in my pickup truck, turned the key, made the engine ignite but nothing excited my dear sweet honey more than my mustache ride ***chorus*** when i'm lying in my deathbed thinking about all the good things in my life the first thing i will think of… will by my family, friends, and wife i'll also think of the hard times when i was sad, depressed, and full of strife but let's not kid ourselves now don't forget about that mustache ride
