Chorus:
We're made out to be the villain,
and you play the victim well
but once your judgment condemns you,
I'll see you all in hell.
Human carnal craving at its worst
tempestuous indulgence
Pushed to the brink of sexual insanity
But no one's ever worth it.
We can't help but fantasize, and
it's never to be fulfilled
disgust and anger is the reality.
repress this natural drive
[Intro is hymnal/angelic chorus, break into minor key & satanic chord, switch to main melody and music. harsh, industrial sound.]
the pleasures of the body cannot placate your lust
your consumption is one that should cause disgust
a jealous glance, a lying tongue
a desire to look and stay so young
spurning love and embracing fury
dead but breathing, inclined to bury.
Living is a sin and God's a necromancer
sinners beg forgiveness, and never get an answer
You'd think by now they'd just stop trying
to repent their sins as they lay dying.
God won't care, but truth is out of reach
do yourself a favor, and practice what you preach
(avaritia, gula, luxuria, acedia, ira, invida, superbia) [chant]
taking solace in work that wasn't yours
lying back while the others do their chores
hands that make the innocent bloody
tracing the curves of a heavenly body
thou shalt not covet, your god has said
but it won't matter once you're dead
Living is a sin and God's a necromancer
sinners beg forgiveness, and never get an answer
You'd think by now they'd just stop trying
to repent their sins as they lay dying.
there is no god but truth is out of reach
just do yourself a favor, and practice what you preach
(avaritia, gula, luxuria, acedia, ira, invida, superbia) [chant]
(Intro: 0:00 to 0:34)
(:034)Insubstantial and unnoticed
the contradictions that built our world
promised freedoms, sworn on liberty
things that no longer exist.
bigoted ideals balance on a precipice
between "us" and "them"
(1:02)wondering where this world has gone
feeling lost, forsaken, hated
these things they gave us, they took away
they lie, they steal, every fucking day
take our money, take our lives
controlled by greed, craving more (x6)
(1:30)stolen lives and brainwashed soldiers
numbed to nothing, no thought at death
choiceless masses, bound by bureaucracy
we speak of leaving, they convince us to stay
deadened thoughts and neglected dreams
a country rots, a people falls.
(1:58)wondering where this world has gone
feeling lost, forsaken, hated
these things they gave us, they took away
they lie, they steal, every fucking day
take our glory, take it all
wasn't it yours? that's what we learned.
(2:26- 3:42 Interlude)
(3:42)wondering where this world has gone,
feeling lost, forsaken, hated
these things they gave us they took away
they lie, they kill, every fucking day
take our money, take it all
take our glory, take our lives
take it, take it, take it, take it
wasn't it yours? that's what we learned (x9)
(extro at -:04)
Sarah: what the FUCK was up with you and kenzie?
Megan: what do you mean?
Megan: i hung out with mary most of the time
Sarah: yeah i know but then you like freaked out and tried to hide kenzie and then ran away. like you couldn' teven let anyone see anyone else. pretty fucking suspicious. especially since afterward shelby came into scotts room
Megan: she didn't want charley to bite her head off, excuse her for wanting to live.
Megan: she wanted to see stormy
Sarah: you were like staring at us at several points. I saw you and so did Charley. reaaaal mature.
Megan: and don't tell me i didn't get a death stare as soon as i walked in
Sarah: i won't because i won't lie. you did, because charley really didn't expect to you to show up all by yourself. but that's ONE
Megan: i tried to start a conversation with you but you totally blew me off. so stop your bitching. at least i wasn't staring daggers at you
Sarah: ok you got five stares. whatever. wasn't five hours
Sarah: i TOLD you thursday that if we went, you would know ppl and charley wouldn't besides Cairo. I TOLD you if he wanted my attention, he would get it.
Megan: and i didn't stare at you for five hours. neither of you are that pretty. i'm sorry charley was surprised i showed backbone
Megan: just deal with it. you were avoiding me all night so just shut your trap and buck up. i never thought a guy would come between us, but i was wrong.
Sarah: i don't call sitting in a chair and only talking to mary backbone. and you chose your side weeks ago, so don't tell me it's charley
Megan: everyone who was out there knew we wre there so don't accuse us of that
Megan: besides kenzie didn't even know charley was there until she got there cuz i didn't tell her
Megan: please, he knew plaenty of peole besides cairo. cassie came for fucksake
Sarah: yeah well we didn't know for sure they were coming until after you were there.
Megan: you know what i'm sick of both of you. you wanna talk about this do it to my face.
Sarah: not my fault i cant
Sarah: the feeling is mutual to you and kenzie and your shit
Megan: i'm really sad that we're letting this shit come between us when we were really good friends.
Sarah: well you know what? you boldfacedly chose KENZIE over me. just because you want shane. I thought we were better friends than that.
Megan: i chose kenzie over charley not you
Megan: you chose charley over me. mea nd kenzie invited you to hang out with us and you didnt' come. i tried talking to you and you didn't listen
Megan: i sitll want to be friends, i'm just not gonna put up with charley constantly being chosen over me.
Sarah: was i ever invited with you and her and shane? no. except that friday. but neither one of you actually invited me. "you can come if you want" just sounds so enthusiastic. i asked to be posted on what the plan was, but was i? nope. I didn't do the choosing. And you said "you guys" I didn't know charley was two people. I'm not going to try and justify myself. I didn't do anything except share a moment of our day with him.
Megan: and twelve hours is an extremely long moment if you ask me. not to mention i was never invited to hang with you guys before anyways.
Megan: our day? you make it sound like it was a day for you and me. and we didn't know what the plan was, when do we ever?
Megan: and why the fuck are you dragging shane into this? he's got nothing to do with it.
Sarah: we ALWAYS hung with you for some reason or other. Remember when you needed space? Is no one else allowed to need space? I'm not dragging shane into it. I"m simply pointing out that we were replaced. Our day referring to the obviously HUGE fucking mistake I made by telling charley what kenzie said. it's all my damned faul tand i know it so i don't understand why anyone gives a shit all of the sudden. nobody did before. it's always been me listening to everyone's petty problems, but how often do i have that chance? practically never, okay? so i'm done. i don't need anymore back and forth friends. and i'm done being the always neutral peacemaker. I don't care anymore.
Megan: i'm not asking you to be a peacemaker. i'm just saying i wish we could still be friends, but obviously you don't want that.
i'll bring your mom's book back after spring break. if you could bring anything of mine you might have that would be great
then i'll just leave you alone.
Sarah: well i wish we could too but i can't tolerate always hearing about how much of an ass one of my best friend is from one of my other best friends. and i won't deal with the immaturity and spinelessness. i don't care about the book. keep it. burn it. idc.
so tired of watching you draw the blade
over skin that isn't yours
this ache in my chest, a shudder i can't control
as you hurt the ones I care about.
Can't fucking stand the pain
Rattling the bars of this cage
Trying to control this fury and rage
I walk away from both fiend and friend.
I don't know if this will ever end.
Give me a moment, I'll fight my own battle.
nails dig into scarred flesh
my blood releases the scream.
I try to remember to breathe
as the anger chokes me
Suffocating in my own emotion
Rattling the bars of this cage
Trying to control this fury and rage
I walk away from both fiend and friend.
I don't know if this will ever end.
Give me a moment, I'll fight my own battle.
I wish I knew why you crave such power
and wring it out of so called friends
there's no excuse for what you say is life
a pitiful attempt at idyllic bliss
while we lie low and decay.
breaking apart the bars of this cage
I'll no longer control my fury and rage
I walk away from both fiend and friend.
I know that this is going to end.
Give me a moment, I'll fight my own battle.
Take a deep breath, step forward to fight.
Escape
The world in which I live decays before my eyes
humanity succumbs to every petty lie.
*our souls are locked in bondage, where the shadows wax and wane
isolated and imprisoned, made this way by pain.*
I can't find a reason to keep breathing.
Words cannot express the disgust I feel inside
The ways we preach these false ideals, and stifle death with pride.
I no longer want to be a part of this forsaken place
Categorized with this species is truly a disgrace
Drop the bomb, take the plunge, escape.
(interlude)
Running for so long, now I'm out of breath
Try to grasp their logic, but I'd gladly welcome death.
Tomorrow comes regardless, and I will greet it with a smile
For I know the dismal truth, and their excuses now are vile.
Words cannot express the fury we embody
Revulsion uttered, slip of tongue, look to tell somebody.
I no longer want to be a part of this forsaken place
Categorized with this species is truly a disgrace
Drop the bomb, take the plunge, escape.
(interlude)
escape...
escape...
escape...
*I didn't write this, but I can't for the life of me remember who did.*
Insubstantial and unnoticed
the contradictions that built our world
promised freedoms, sworn on liberty
things that no longer exist.
Ethnocentric ideals balance on a precipice
between "us" and "them"
wondering where this world has gone
feeling lost, forsaken and hated
these things they gave us, they took away
they lie, they steal, every fucking day
take our money, take our lives
controlled by greed, craving more more more
stolen lives and brainwashed soldiers
numbed to nothing, no thought at death
choiceless masses, bound by bureaucracy
we speak of leaving, they convince us to stay
deadened thoughts and neglected dreams
allegiance pledged to a decaying nation
wondering where this world has gone
feeling lost, forsaken and hated
these things they gave us, they took away
they lie, they steal, every fucking day
take our glory, take it all
wasn't it always yours? that's what we learned.
a country rots, a people falls
knocked off this pedestal, down to the floor
They think we're on top, but we're lower than low.
and our fathers roll 'round in their graves
these things they gave us, they took away
they lie, they steal, every fucking day
take our money, take our lives
controlled by greed, craving more more more
Faces flicker red and orange
Horrific in the fire's glow
The shadows cast on all who're there
Create the illusion of masks
or is it the blood?
Red, gleaming black in the fire's light
Standing ready, gun in hand
Ready to die for this god-forsaken land
Institutionalized, stripped of all identity
Filled back up with all their lies, friends become the enemy.
(Cock and aim, fire and kill
The war will never end)
From gray woolen rags to camoflauged fatigues
They hide in ditches, die in the fields.
We hear of one dead, a frenzied panic spreads
While masses lie in nameless graves, and we don't blink an eye.
Standing ready, gun in hand
Ready to die for this god-forsaken land
Institutionalized, stripped of all identity
Filled back up with all their lies, friends become the enemy.
Humanity claims supremacy, glory over all.
But we're no better than those beasts
They don't aim to kill their kind (X2)
Standing ready, gun in hand
Ready to die for this god-forsaken land
Institutionalized, stripped of all identity
Filled back up with all their lies, friends become the enemy.
Our world will screech to a halt
Before they learn the truth
It will end, in blood and war
at the fumbling hands of youth.
The apocalypse is our own doing
And yet they do not see
the wounded dead, the death of man, the broken earth,
May well be caused by me.
Sucking, biting
Fucking, fighting
Tricked and torn
Pricked and worn
Play your twisted games.
One to fly,
Two to die
Three for fun,
Four to run (run run run)
Brazen cold,
Crazed and old
Shoved and hated
Loved and waited
for the illusion they call "love"
One to fly,
Two to die
Three for fun,
Four to run (run run run)
Armed and ready
Charmed and deadly
life's a game
love's the same
Come now, play with me (laugh, sigh)
One to cry
Two to die
Three for fun
Four,
I'm DONE.
Twisting truth, making it mine.
The world rests in my hands.
Nothing can change it but I.
Molding, shaping, carving life
finding my reality within this bloody lie.
Withered, cracked, and calloused hands
reach for oil and paint.
Create that place, the one you see
and climb inside to stay.
An artist never settles for merely what he has
disappointed by what we got,
we start again from scratch.
Ink, the weapon, canvas a shield
staving off the barren truth
tings change when one man dies,
why nothing as it's hoards?
Erase the troubles, touch up mistakes
-AND RUN-
split up, bloodied, broken hands
caress the artist's wounds.
Terrified of what's inside, he's out to fill the holes.
An artist never settles for merely what he's got
And they don't care, they leave them there
To lie in shadow and rot.
Jigsaw pieces fit together like they shouldn't
Symphonies of broken glass, dreams of answers and rejection,
far too good to ever be true.
Early on dreams, they have to be
Nothing like this could be... too cruel to be true.
Screams and sighs, raining life
Hot, smooth motion, grasping for more (more more)
Begging at my master's feet for a taste of what they've got.
Bloody, gory fantasies of love and lust and blood
Kinks in the system, whipped into shape.
Pull me closer, touch me (please)
Let's hope it's real enough to feel.
Screams and sighs, raining life
Hot, smooth motion, grasping for more (more more)
Begging at my master's feet for a taste of what they've got.
Uncontrollable, a greedy craving
Straining, playing sick sweet tasks.
Take me, break me, suffocate me.
Bite back, take that, give you to me more more more
Skin on skin, entangled legs, that's not all... it takes me, breaks me, suffocates me.
Whips and chains and sick cliches, turn me torrid, boil my blood.
Screams and sighs, raining life
Hot, smooth motion, grasping for more (more more)
Begging at my master's feet for a taste of what they've got.
Uncontrollable, a greedy craving
Straining, playing sick sweet tasks.
Take me, break me, suffocate me.
Take me, break me, suffocate me. (X3)
Take me, break me, just fuck(and/ing) suffocate me.
It's odd. We fight for so long, and then we talk like that. Maybe I can't hate her. I know I probably should.
I feel like soup today. Liquid-y and warm.. yet not quite filling.
Half of the sky is a bright, vibrant blue. the other half is dark dark grey. Almost snow cloud-y. I wish it would snow.
I woke up this morning and opened my curtain. The window was foggy and it gave a snowy illusion to what was outside my window. It made me sad when I realized it was only fog... nothing more.
I made a barbie look emo. It's retarded.
I'm avoiding reading the Odyssey. I'd rather read the 12th Series of Unfortuante Events than read that. It is so... boring... in a word.
I have a frozen tin of candy. The little swoops taste like christmas. I want hot chocolate... I can't wait until thanksgiving, until the lights turn on, until it snows.
Sigh. I love this time of year. I feel drunk on memory. I am letthing the memories of last year keep me floating... buzzed. It's working. I have a real smile on my face, even just a small one.
It is real.
It is good.
They say you're sad
I'm sad too but not as sad as you
You don’t seem to care what I've done
You pretend like you don't care.
Like hurting me has hurt you too
I don't care.
Your tears were bitter
Burning those they touched
Away from the light,
Refugee in a darkened corner
Hiding from your very own life
Horrified for what you've done
Yet plotting to do it more
Your vicious circle eating you up
Tearing you apart from the inside
You just don't care, you soulless freak
One day you'll wake up and
You'll suddenly feel
A scar for every scar you've helped to make
A sting for every blade you guided into skin
Your "friends" hate you
One only wants you back
If you only knew what's been said
Behind your back
Payback's a bitch, and so am I.
All I ask is that you try to feel
Try to care
Make anything come out of you
I want those lies to stop from you as well
Those lies that kill me
Those lies that I can stop somehow
I take it away and they never see
Soon you'll learn to hate.
The blood I've spilled for you
Pointless little pricks I made
You told me you'd make more
But you fear the karma
Well it'll come back for you anyway
One day when you least expect it.
I loved you once, I can love you again
Your feelings blackened out
Covered up by foolproof liquid words
Answers never given, too many questions asked
You hurt me... I'd love to return the favor.
They say you’re sad
You are sad, you see, but not as sad as me.
