Yes I think it's safe to say I feel good about the place that I have made in the world today I get all sticky inside when I close my eyes and open up wide I see pictures in the clouds so obscene I gotta laugh out loud I look back to find my way Reminisce nice About the good old days... When I saw my brother above me I remember the words he said "When you dream you hit bottom Chances are good you're gonna wake up dead" I will be up on top when the sky falls down And it all goes wrong again I will be sitting on top When it all goes wrong again I will be sitting on top When it all goes wrong Yes I think it's safe to say I feel good about the sin that I inflict on my own skin I pay money to cut and burn Pictures like lessons that I need to learn I see faces on the ceiling I see them move I hear them singing I lay down laughing here by myself And think about the time that I spent in hell When I saw my brother below me I remember the words he said "when you need to wake up happy You better sleep right in your own warm bed" I will be singing in the rain When my bed's on fire When it all goes wrong again I will be singing in the rain When it all goes wrong again I will be singing in the rain when it all goes wrong Where are you going to be... When it all comes down? What are you going to do... When it all comes down? Where are you going to be... when it all comes down? What are you going to do... When it all comes down on you? Sitting on the top of the world (..when it all goes wrong again) I will be sitting on top when the sky falls down (...and it all goes wrong again) I will be sitting on top when it all goes wrong again I will be sitting on top when it all goes wrong again I will be sitting on top when it all goes wrong again Again and again I will be sitting on top when it all goes wrong... Yeah, when it all goes wrong again When it all goes wrong again When it all goes wrong again When it all goes wrong again When it all goes wrong again When it all goes wrong again When it all goes wrong
5. Short Blonde Hair
2. Slide
Hey I think this is getting to me First class living in a goldfish bowl Just when I think I have driven my life where I wanted it to be It takes me to a place that I do not want to go All I ever wanted to do was to learn how to break this world in two Teach it all the tricks I wanted it to learn Teach it how to do that I want it to do No one really understands just how simple and plain and predictable I am Because all I ever wanted to do was to play guitar in a rock and roll band Now I'm just losing my hair and I'm learning how to smile like I just don't care No, I just don't care (I hear them under their breath) No, I just don't care (what they say...when they think that I can't hear them) I see them point and I see them stare There goes that stupid guy with the short blonde hair Yeah, I think this is getting to me First class living in a goldfish bowl Just when I think I have driven my life where I wanted it to be It takes me to a place that I do not want to go All I ever wanted to do was to learn how to break this world in two Teach it all the tricks I wanted it to learn Teach it how to do that I want it to do No one really understands just how simple and plain and predictable I am Because all I ever wanted to do was to play guitar in a rock and roll band Now I'm just losing my hair and I'm learning how to smile No, I just don't care (I hear them under their breath) No, I just don't care (what they say...when they think that I can't hear them) I see them point and I see them stare There goes that stupid guy With the short blonde hair Short blonde hair Say la de da de da de da Say la de da de da de da Say la de da de da de da Say la de da de da de da La de da de da de da La de da de da de da
We were fading like the bottom of a bad dream We were heading south looking for a good time Faces look so pretty in the spotlight All blown out and bathed inside a world of white Sometimes I feel like I am holding it together Sometimes I feel like everything is fine Sometimes I feel like I'm out of control I feel like I am falling Like my life is on a slide Slide Slide Slide Slide It was sunny on the streets down there by the water We would get hammered on the beach Right down by the water She was slightly out of reach A rich man's only daughter I think she slept with me Just so she could piss off her father I am elastic I am easy with the damage I am ecstatic I am hungry for the climb Sometimes I feel Like I am falling apart... I feel like I'm falling... like my life is on a slide Slide Slide Slide Slide I know it's wrong but I just can't seem to act my age I know it's but I just can't seem to control my rage My heart is racing and I am losing my mind Sometimes I feel like my life is on a slide Slide Those faces look so scary in the harsh light All blown out and bathed inside a world of white We were shining like the good part of a bad time We were laughing, happy just to be along for the ride Sometimes I feel like I am really lucky I have made it through bruised and scarred and half alive Sometimes I feel like I'm out of control I feel like I am falling Like my life is on a slide Slide Slide Slide Slide Yes I know it's wrong but I just can't seem to act my age Yes I know it's wrong but I just can't seem to control my rage My heart is racing and I am losing my mind Sometimes I feel like my life is on a slide
6. Misery Whip
3. Babytalk
Walking wounded with a belly full of pain and a big bad attitude We are shaking shadows for that perfect dark room We can do just what we want to do There is a place where we can leave behind All those simple minds They would not like the way we live When we are all alone in this house that we call home You will become my misery whip (yes...I said like a misery whip) Walking hungry with a pocket full of promise And a big black song in my head I know the answers to my questions They are purple black and blue And they are waiting for me in my bed There is a place where we can leave behind All those simple minds They would not like they way we live When we are all alone In this house that we call home You will become my misery whip (I will say it again...like a misery whip) Stop! I get no pleasure when I'm going through the motions Of my mediocre day to day I'm just an actor just like Robert fucking Redford When I say those stupid words that they expect me to say Yes we can leave behind All those simple minds They would not like the dirty things we do Yeah When we are all alone in this house that we call home I will fall down like a bitch for you I need you to hit me and make me shake I need you to hurt me and make me beg for more I need you to bend me and make me break I need you to make me feel like I am your whore I feel complete when I feel sick inside I feel complete when I feel sick inside I feel complete when I feel sick inside I feel complete when I feel sick inside I need to feel like I am real inside I need to feel like I am really alive I need you to make me feel I need you to make me feelI need you to make me feel I need you to make me feelI need you to make me feel I need you to make me feel I need you to make me feel I need you to hit me and make me shake I need you to hurt me and make me beg for more I need you to bend me and make me break I need you to make me feel Like we can leave behind all those simple minds They would not like the way we live When we are all alone in this house that we call home You will become my misery whip You will become my misery whip You will become my misery whip You will become my misery whip You will become my friend
This is a song about Spike He is a bad ass guy Who just happens to be A really good friend of mine Everyone I know...yeah Who knows Spike too Would agree when I say the words That Spike is cool The problem with my friend Spike He has fallen into A true love with a nice girl Who has gotta lot of tattoos He always talks crazy Whenever she calls He always talks like a baby It's obvious She has got him by the balls She has got him by the balls She has got him by the balls My weird little brother James And his ex-girlfriend They would talk in those ridiculous voices We would all be hanging out getting drunk in the neighborhood And they both would make those ridiculous noises He would always talk crazy Whenever she calls He always talks like a baby It is obvious They have got him by the balls I hate you when you talk like that I wish you could act like a grown man (They have got you by the balls) I hate you when you talk like that I wish you could act like a grown man (They have got you by the balls) I hate you when you talk like that I wish you could act like a grown man (They have got you by the balls) You will never see me walking that walk You will never catch me Talking that babytalk (you know it's true... they've got you by the balls) Which brings me back to Spike A good guy to have in a fight Unless he was with his girlfriend Obnoxious on Saturday night You know he couldn't care less What anyone thinks He does not give a damn No, because he has no shame He looks so happy Just like everything is fine He is oblivious to the fact That he has no spine He always talks crazy (you have no shame) Whenever she calls (you have no shame) He talks like a baby (you have no shame) It is obvious they have got him by the balls I hate you when you talk like that I wish you could act like a grown man (they have got him by the balls) I hate you when you talk like that I wish you could act like a grown man (they have got him by the balls) I hate you when you talk like that I wish you could act like a grown man (they have got him by the balls) You will never see me walking that walk You will never catch me Talking that babytalk (you know it's true...they've got you by the balls) I am not going to let it get to me They've got you by the balls They've got you by the balls Yeah They've got you by the balls
