My life is not something I can control, on my own, This time I think it’s really, really my fault. And I try but this thing is eating my goddam soul, all alone. Why do I lie when I say I will not fall? Now is the moment when I must draw the line, You may think that I am going blind. I just think I’m going blind, I just think I’m going blind, What kind of crazy am I if I can’t justify? Listen! Please don’t leave me in this room! Look at me! I swear I’m telling the truth! Dear doctor, do you see? Can you please just answer me? Dear doctor, do you see? Can you please just answer me? Answer me! Answer me! Answer me! And I try but this thing is eating my goddam soul, all alone, Why do I lie when I say I will not fall? Why the hell am I talking to myself? I’m the psychologist, not the patient. I’m the psychologist, not the patient. Psychologist! Psychologist! This is endless, My situation will be over, Always out of my comfort zone, I always thought I was left alone, Why are you screaming in that tone? On my own. On my own. On my own.

Disintegration, alienation, My life’s a mess. I’m feeling nothing, Driving around looking for The power of the needle touching my skin, The walls of my shallow grave, Is where my head will sleep? There’s no easy road, Everlasting serenity, Just to find some peace, In my crazy uncertainty. Disintegration, alienation, Leave the pieces on the floor. There’s no turning back, They keep calling me again, and again. I feel helpless inside, no place to hide, The harder I fight, the faster I’ll die. I wanna know if you’re with me, Closing all the doors to my freedom, Closing all the doors. The world is tearing me apart, Come back to bed, stay in my thoughts, ‘Cause I need to learn how to control myself. Psychotherapy 101, stating my pain once again, I must be insane, there is no escape, Craving to die yet another day. Feeling it crawling my spine, I don’t know how to fight, Psychotherapy 101. My desire is written underneath, The shame of my defeat. I need to fell, Some peace, some rest, ‘Till the day I am dead. Feeling it crawling my spine, I don’t know how to fight I wanna know if you’re with me, Closing the doors to my freedom, I need to feel, Some peace, some rest, ‘Till the day I am dead. Shut up!

Waiting for a world of pain. I know this is too much for you and me, That’s why I’m trying to escape, But from now on, I’m not gonna lie, Facing the reality we live in And it’s a place filled with poverty and disease, But I bet that you think We are all the same. We’re all the same, No one will tell me how I am the master of myself. We’re all the same, No one will tell me how I am the master of myself. We’re fighting a war, And now is the time, But we are just warriors in disguise. Facing the reality we live in, And it’s a place filled with poverty and disease, But I bet that you think We are all the same. Release, Release the beast inside. Release, Release the beast inside. Release the beast inside! What do you have to say? You’re just a bag of shame. I don’t have the resources For your dangerous games. I was begging you And yet you throw me away, All I wanted was for you to finally Get me out, Get me out! Get me out of this tyranny. Get me out or throw me a grenade, In your holiness you never take the blame. In times like these You have a chance, Do what’s right for your life, Turn your fear into wisdom And remember, in the end, Only the strong will survive. Only the strong will survive. Waiting for a world of pain.

Bloodinger 02:58
I was walking down the forest, just because, To explore a new way of life, to feel the Nature, Then a grizzly bear came to me, out of nowhere, Oh man, this is such a disgrace, That thing robbed my finger and now I’m bleeding, I think the best thing to do is to find someone, So I started to scream, Scream! There’s so much blood right here, My thoughts are blurred, There’s so much pain and suffering Just because of a finger. Finally, an old man saw me and gave me a nice ride, It was the best thing to do, so late in the night, No one around except you, Oh old man, Thank you so much. Save my life, I’m dying, This is a bloodinger, This is a bloodinger! Save my life tonight! Save my life tonight! Save my life tonight! The story of my own problem, and it’s so sad, I lost my finger and now I’m going to die. Nobody cares about a guy with nine fingers, Nobody cares about a guy with nine fingers! Nobody cares, Facing the end, My life is over, I’ve got no friends.

Moe 03:22
Not for sale! My dream job, running a bar is always great, Sometimes I feel so lonely, with no purpose at all. Everyone is coming for a beer, But no one is coming for me, Just need a lady, I don’t wanna be alone. If only I had a lady, I wouldn’t feel so forsaken, Everything wonderful in this life, Seems to me it´s all a lie. No one is going to bother me, Until I say so, Just insult me one more time, And I will bring the revolution. My bar is where I belong, My bar is where I belong, I’m such a pussy; oh baby I can feel it now, You want something, let me hear you beg. Pay attention to the rules written on the walls! Spent years and years looking at you, Trying to humiliate me, Breaking bottles and throwing chairs, Stop puking all over the place! Listening to every kind of madness, Just to make fun of me, My home is my legacy, My grandpa would be proud of me. I control every drunken people in this city, You don’t realize the power I have in hands, And the meaning of it all. You want a whisky, You must respect me, Pay the bill or you will have to fear me. You want a whisky, You must respect me, Pay the bill or you will see what I mean. Lies! No more fights!

Bread Pit 05:28
So much crumb around me to feed the irony, I always thought I was born in a golden bed. But now I look at this and I must realize, All the bread that others are willing to die for. Reaching the pit of hypocrisy, Feeding our lies, How lucky we are to be alive With a good life, While others are trying to survive, Reaching the pit of hypocrisy, Feeding your demise And we just can’t fight, This is modern slavery, I need to get away from this. I have to run away, as fast as I can, With one hand I give, With the other I’ll take away. It’s sad how I’m not ashamed, I was supposed to feel bad, But I guess I’m just okay. I´m standing in the most beautiful bread pit, I need to get away, but I want to stay in it, I live in the most dreadful bread pit, And I don’t care if your plate is finished. I have to run away, as fast as I can, With one hand I give, With the other I’ll take away, It’s sad how I’m not ashamed, I was supposed to feel bad, But I guess I’m just okay. All the bread that others are Willing to die for, Falling apart. Take the guilt away from me, Burn everything in my eyes. Take the guilt away from me, Burn everything in my eyes, My eyes. So much crumb around me to feed the irony, I always thought I was born in a golden bed. But now I look around and I must realize, All this bread that others are willing to die for. All this bread that others are Willing to die for, To die for. All the bread that others are Willing to die for, To die for. Within the pit.

I'm freaking out, hiding in my bed, Still waiting with a knife in my hands, So scared to pick up the damn phone, I think someone is gonna kill me. They really wanna kill me! Be aware, I’m not insane, I’m the knife and you’re the cake, So, be aware, I’m not insane, I’m the knife and you’re the cake. Am I going insane? It is just the beginning, I can’t do this anymore right now, Please leave me alone, Free me from this, Free me from this, Now! Go away, I can’t handle it, Go away. This cake is a lie! The cops are coming, The shadows are fading, Freaking out, hiding in my bed, Freaking out, hiding in my bed, Freaking out. This cake is a lie, This cake is a lie, This cake is a lie, This cake is a lie!

What is This 04:23
I’m telling you the story that we live nowadays, Trapped inside a corrupted system. We need to find the answers to escape our prisons, That we’ve been living for so long. Forget everything you think you know about me, I’m the giver and the owner of all this generation, Nothing can stop me, even if you try to bring me down, I own every penny of your consolation. You think you’re free, but you are so wrong, Obey me; I will put every word in your tongue, ‘Cause I control you, so you may try to scream, It’s just wasting air from the top of your lungs, Resist me, and you will see the end, Resist me, and it will be the last thing you say! I will make your life a living hell, I will make your life a burning hell, I own you, along with your family, I own you all, even your precious son. I’m the master of it all so try me, I’m the master, I’m the giver, The provider, I am the liar, I’m the deceiver, I am everything. I am the king of this world, Kneel before me. What is this? Trapped inside a corrupted system, We need to find the answers to escape our prisons. Can we embrace that? Can we believe that? Our strength is beyond your comprehension. I am the king and you will obey Every single word I say. I am the king and you will obey Every single word I say! I am the king! I am the king and you will obey Every single word I say. You are the king but we won’t obey Anything you say.
