You're always saying that there's something wrong, ..
I'm starting to believe it's you plan all along, ..
Death came around, forced to hear its song, ..
And know tomorrow can't be depended on.
I seen the home inside you head, ..
All locked doors and unmade beds.
Open sores unattended
Let me say just once that
I have faced it, .. a life wasted, ..
I'm never going back again.
I escaped it, .. a life wasted, ..
I'm never going back again.
Having tasted, .. a life wasted, ..
I'm never going back again.
The world awaits just up the stairs
Leave the pain for someone else.
Nothing back there for you to find, ..
Or was it you, you left behind?
You're always saying you're too weak to be strong, ..
You're harder on yourself than just about anyone, ..
Why swim the channel just to get this far?
Halfway there, why would you turn around?
Darkness comes in waves, .. tell me,
why invite it to stay?
You're warm with negativity,
Yes, comfort is an energy, ..
But why let the sad song play?
I have faced it, .. a life wasted, ..
I'm never going back again.
Oh I escaped it, .. a life wasted, ..
I'm never going back again.
Having tasted, .. a life wasted, ..
I'm never going back again.
Oh I erased it, .. a life wated, ..
I'm never going back again
WORLD WIDE SUICIDE I felt the earth on Monday. It moved beneath my feet. Saw his face in a corner picture. I recognized the name. It's a shame to awake in a world of pain It's the same everyday in a hell manmade The whole world .. World over. Medals on a wooden mantle. Next to a handsome face. And in all the madness. Thought becomes numb and naive. It's the same everyday and the wave won't break Laying claim to the take that our soldiers save The whole world, .. World over. The whole world, .. World over. Looking in the eyes of the fallen It's a shame to awake in a world of pain It's the same everyday and the wave won't break The whole world, .. World over. The whole world, .. World over.
COMATOSE Consider me an object. Put me in a vacuum. Yeh, I'll be hanging upsidedown. And there I will swing.
Feel it rising, .. yeh, next stop falling Conside me an abcess. Leave me in my vacuum. Feel it rising, .. yeh, next stop falling Feel it rising, .. yeh, next stop falling High above, .. I'll break the law, .. if it's illegal Yeh, I'll be hanging upsidedown. And there i will swing. Feel it rising, .. yeh, next stop falling Feel it rising, .. yeh, next stop falling Something never thought you'd be a part of
SEVERED HAND Big man stands behind an open door "Got some kicks, wanna take a ride?" I've no fear but for falling down Tried to walk, found a severed hand "It's okay, do you want some more?" "Understand, I'm not falling down" In waves, lets me stay calm If I don't lose control Like a tear in all we know When I get home
MARKER IN THE SAND There is a marker, .. no one sees it cause the sand What went wrong? Walking tightrope high, .. over moral ground With the living let, .. what is living love God, what do you say? Those undecided, .. needn't have faith to be free What goes on? Walking tightrope high, .. over moral ground With the living, let, .. what is living love God, what do you say? God, what do you say? I feel a sickness, .. a sickness coming over me What goes wrong? Walking tightrope high, .. over moral ground With the living, let, .. what is living love What do you say, .. God, what do you say? Calling out, .. calling out
PARACHUTES Why deny That you're gone You And I don't want to know your past Nothing else And died Heaven knows if there's a ceiling All the friends I'm needing And far away will be my home
Further back and forth, a wave will break on me today
UNEMPLOYABLE He's got a big gold ring what says "Jesus Saves" Oh yeh Oh yeh Well, his wife and kid are asleep but he's still awake Yeh
Oh yeh Oh yeh Near to death, .. uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh Yeh Oh yeh Oh yeh Near to death, .. uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh Scared alive, .. uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh Here to die. Near to death.
BIG WAVE I used to be a crustacean Got be a big wave, ride me a big wave, got me a big wave. I feel the need I scream in affirmation Got be a big wave, ride me a big wave, got me a big wave. Got me a ride.
GONE No more upset mornings When the gas in my tank For the lights of this city I'm gone Long gone In the far off distance Feel like a question is forming
For the lights of this city I'm gone Long gone If nothing is everything If nothing is everything I am gone
WASTED REPRISE I have faced it
I am never going back again Having tased I am never going back again I escaped it I am never going back again
ARMY RESERVE How long must she stand I'm not blind I'm not frantic Her son's slanted She tells herself I'm not blind I'm not frantic
COME BACK If I keep holding out, .. will the light shine through? I have been planning out, .. all that I'd say to you Please say, that if you hadn't of gone now And these days, they linger on If I don't fall apart, .. will my memories stay clear But the strangest thing to date There must be an open door And the days, they linger on And sometimes you're there And it's okay. It's okay I'll be here
vVedder, Gossardv
In the form of a morning paper. Laid out for me to see.
Could not stop staring at the. Face I'd never see again.
What does it mean when a war has taken over
What can be saved, and who will be left to hold her?
It's a worldwide suicide.
That the president took for granted.
Writing checks that others pay.
So much to talk about. Nothing for to say.
Tell you to pray, while the devils on their shoulder
Does not equate, and the truth's already out there
It's a worldwide suicide.
It's a worldwide suicide.
You got to know there's another, another, another, another
Another way
What does it mean when a war has taken over
Tell you to pray, while the devils on their shoulder
It's a worldwide suicide.
It's a worldwide suicide.
vVedder, McCready, Gossardv
Free of all conditions. Free of air and friction.
For all eternity.
Feel it rising, .. comatose, with no fear of falling
Blood on all the pistons. Running my transmission.
Feel it rising, .. comatose, with no fear of falling
Feel it rising
To be in love, .. leave the hatred, .. on the cross
For all eternity.
Feel it rising, .. comatose, with no fear of falling
Feel it rising
vVedderv
Said, "Leave your lady on the cement floor."
I said, "Yeh, .."
"Take your pick, leave yourself behind."
I said, "Yeh, .."
So look out below, I am falling now
Oh please understand, I just need my friend
A way home
Recognized it from the wedding band
I said, "Yeh, .."
"You'll see dragons after 3 or 4 .."
I said, "Yeh, .."
I said, "Look around, the room's taller now, .."
I can't close my eyes, cause I see the sound
In waves
Explore and not explode
A preternatural other plane
With the power to maintain
Once dissolved, we are free to grow
"What is human?, .. What is more?"
I'll answer this
vVedder, McCreadyv
Has covered over, .. all the messages it kept
Misunderstanding, .. what original truth was
And out expanding, .. in a faith, but not in love
Seeing visions of, .. falling up somehow
Do come down
So unforgiving, yet, .. needing forgiveness first
And those misguided, there was a plan for them to be
Now you got both sides claiming killing in God's name
But God is nowhere, .. to be found, conveniently
Walk the bridges, .. before you burn them down
Do come round
So unforgiving, yet, .. needing forgiveness first
Like watching freedom, .. being sucked straight out to sea
And the solution?, .. well, from me far would it be
But the delusion, .. is feeling dangerous to me
Seeing visions of, .. falling up somehow
Do come down
So unforgiving, yet, .. needing forgivness first
Calling out, .. I'm calling out
vVedder, Gossardv
All the troubles when combined
With the missing links
It don't feel like
Home now, ..
All the troubles
Suddenly explained infinitum
You're always wishing and
Never here at
Home
All the dreams we shared and
Lights we turned on
But the house is getting dark
But together share the dawn
And I won't need
Cause when we're dead
We would've had it all
I would've fallen from the sky
Til you
Parachutes have opened now
Come so low with the kneeling
Please know that
I got
Before my light goes out
As the doors are closing now
And to grasp this, I don't know
But I don't need
and love, .. wish the world could go again with love
One can't seem to have enough
And war, .. break the sky and tell me what it's for
I'll travel there on my own
And love, .. what a different life
Had I not found this love with you
vVedder, Cameron, McCreadyv
And it's dented from the punch thrown at work that day
When he smashed the metal locker where he kept his things
After the big boss said, "You best be on your way"
So this life is sacrifice
Jumping trains just to survive
On his brain weighs the curse of thirty bills unpaid
Gets up, lights a cigarette he's grown to hate
Thinking if he can't sleep, how will he ever dream?
So this life is sacrifice
To a stranger's bottom line
I've seen the light, .. uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh
I'm scared alive, ..
I've seen the light,..
Scared alive.
So this life is sacrifice
Was a dream that had to die
I've seen the light, .. uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh
I'm scared alive, ..
I've seen the light.
Near to death
Scared alive.
Here to die.
Scared alive.
vVedder, Amentv
In an underwater nation
And I surf in celebration
Of a billion adaptations
Got be a big wave, ride me a big wave, got me a big wave.
Planted in me
Millions of years ago
Can't you see
The oceans size?
Defining time
And tide
Arising
Arms laid upon me
Being so kind
To let me ride
Of connecting dislocations
And exceeding limitations
By achieving levitation
Got be a big wave, ride me a big wave, got me a big wave.
I got me a ride.
vVedderv
No more tyring evenings
This American dream
I am disbelieving
Feels like money in the bank
Gonna blow it all this time
Take me one last ride
They only look good when I'm speeding
Gonna leave em all behind me
Cause this time
This time I'm letting go of it all
So long
Cause this time I'm gone
As my tail-lights fade
No one thinks to witness
But they will someday
And the answer's far
I will be what I could be
Once I get out of this town
They have lost all feeling
Gonna leave em all behind me
Cause this time
This time I'm letting go of it all
So long
Long gone, I'm letting go of it all
Cause this time I'm gone
If nothing is everything, I'll have it all
If nothing is everything, I'll have it all
vVedder, Gossardv
A life wasted
A life wasted
A life wasted
vVedder, D.Echols, Amentv
Before the ground, it gives way
To an endless fall
She can feel this
War on her face
The stars on her pillow
She's folding in darkness
Begging for slumber
I can see it coming
Looks like lightning
In my child's eye
I can feel it coming
Violently shakes
My body
Always giving her
The sideways eye
The empty chair where Dad sits
How loud can silence get?
And Mom, she reassures
To contain him
But it's becoming a lie
And everyone else
Father is risking
His life for our freedoms
I can see it coming
Looks like lightning
In my child's eye
I can feel it coming
Darling you'll save me
If you save yourself
vVedder, McCreadyv
Under this broken roof, .. it's only rain that I feel
I've been wishing out the days, .. come back.
Since you slipped away, .. know that I still remain true
I've been wishing out the days, ..
I wouldn't have lost you another way
From wherever you are, .. come back
And in the night, I've been waiting for
The real possibility that I may meet you in my dream
I go to sleep
So you had to go, .. and I had to remain here
So far away
And yet you feel so close
And I'm not gonna question it any other way
For you to
Come back
And every night, what I'm waiting for
Is the real possibility I may meet you in my dream
And you're talking back to me
Come the morning I could swear that you're next to me
It's okay.
Come back
Come back
