HATE

Simmons, Kulick, Van Zen

 

Hate is what I am

Cuz underneath this heart

There beats the heart of man

 

You'll wear your crown

When you're lyin' 6 feet underground

 

Don'tcha think it's odd

Man was created in the image of God

 

All you martyrs and saviours

Go through the same door

Listen all you butchers, saints and sinners

We've all been here before

 

Yes, Hate is what I am

Cuz underneath this heart

There beats the heart of man

 

So you're lookin' for a saviour

But I'm here to tell ya

All you ever did was follow orders

 

All you martyrs and saviours

Go through the same door

RAIN

 Stanley, Kulick, Cuomo

 

Tell me what you want me to be

I can't find my way off the floor

 

Took me like a hurricane

I think it's gonna rain, yeah

I think it's gonna rain

Rain down on me

Whisper words inside of my head

Thunder like a gun in my ear

Clouds are burstin' over my bed

 

Wash me like a hurricane

I think it's gonna rain, yeah

I think it's gonna rain

I think it's gonna rain down down down

I think it's gonna rain

Some things will never be

MASTER & SLAVE

Stanley, Kulick, Cuomo

 

Life, a movie in my head

A page of lines we read

The words remain unsaid

 

Time, a race you never win

Look back at where we've been

And throw the towel in

 

(chorus)

Every time I see a sign

Tell me what's the bottom line

Tell Me

I just wanna take my turn

Now before I crash and burn

Yeah

 

Hope, a candle burning bright

A temporary light

'Till we return tonight

 

Love, the mighty drug we crave

The master and the slave

Will rule us to our grave

 

Everytime I see a sign

Tell me what's the bottom line

Tell Me

I just want a place to rest,

Count to four and catch my breath

One, Two, Three, Four...

 

I don't know what to feel

Don't know what to say

Don't know what to do

 

I don't know where to go

Don't know who to be

Don't know who to know

 

Life is never what it seems

It shakes you from your dreams

Wake up and start to

Everytime I see a sign

Tell me what's the bottom line

Tell Me

I just want a place to rest

Stop and let me catch my breath

 

Everytime I see a sign

Tell me what's the bottom line

Tell Me

Forget all that I've been told

I just wanna lose control

 

Everytime I see a sign

Tell me what's the bottom line

Tell Me

I just wanna take my turn

Now before I crash and burn

 

 

CHILDHOOD'S END

 Simmons, Kulick, Thayer

 

I lived a life of illusion and you had your kicks

So what, there's nothing left to do

And you and your obsessions and your crucifix

As if what I thought mattered much to you

 

(chorus)

And you were always my friend from Childhood's End

It was forever and ever

Did you understand

It's Childhood's End

But never, the dream is over

 

Sunday morning in the New York Times

I read you died last night

It said you were smilin' when you blew your mind

And the note you left behind said:

 

You were always my friend from Childhood's End

Seems like forever and ever

Yeah, you won't have to have to pretend

It's near the end

You won't ever be a rock and roller

 

Yeah, you were always my friend from Childhood's End

But never, the dream is over

You were just like me

I was just like you

For eternity I'll think of you

 

(Repeat choruses, overlapping, fade out)

You've got something about you,

You've got something I need...")

 

 

I WILL BE THERE

 Stanley, Kulick, Cuomo

 

Each and every day

People turn away

Change the things they feel

Change the things they say

 

We can never know

Where our lives will lead

Wherever you go

Whenever you need

 

I will be there

Wanna be there

I will hear you when you call

Give you anything at all

I will be there

Anywhere

Like a father to his son

 

You are just a child

All is yet to be

Growing all the while

Knowing when you leave

 

I will be there

Wanna be there

Only blood will run so deep

Seal the promise I will keep

I will be there

Anywhere

Like a father to his son

I can swear to only one

 

Time moves quickly as the years go by

All these moments slip away

When I'm gone and life will carry on

You will know someway

 

I will be there

I will be there

 

I will be there

Wanna be there

Only blood will run so deep

Seal the promise I will keep

I will be there

Like a father to his son

I must swear to only one

 

 

THE JUNGLE

Stanley, Kulick, Cuomo

 

Here I go

Down below

 

The sun is goin' down

A jungle comes alive

The beast is waking up

To take another life

I can't sleep

In too deep

 

The man with nothing left

Without a place to hide

Will take a final breath

And tumble in the night

 

Yeah

Someone's safe at home

Someone dies alone

Someone's fallen prey

Yeah

Some will take their fill

Like lions to the kill

Livin' day to day

Whoooaaaaaoooohhhh, The Jungle

 

Mothers mourn

Fathers groan The child takes a hit

And then he starts to cry

A mother never hears

Her baby's last goodbye

 

Yeah

Someone's safe at home

Someone dies alone

Someone's fallen prey

Yeah

Some will take their fill

Like lions to the kill

Livin' day to day

Whoooaaaaaoooohhhh, The Jungle

 

The sun is coming up

A city comes alive

The lamb will never see

A jungle in the sky

 

Yeah

Someone's safe at home

Someone dies alone

Someone's falling prey

Yeah

Some will take their fill

Like lions to the kill

Livin' day to day

Yeah

Someone dies alone

Someone's safe at home

All is flesh and bone

Whoooaaaaaoooohhhh, The Jungle

 

 

IN MY HEAD

Simmons, St. James

 

I'm obnoxious and no one's home

In my head

In my head

 

Cardboard boxes filled with hate

In my head

They're in my head

 

Nest of termites, glowin' red

In my head

They're in my head

 

(chorus)

Look behind the mask

Try to find peace of mind

And you'll find

Just look behind the man

And lead me by the hand

 

Faded smiles behind dark shades

In my head

In my head

 

Plastic icons, glowin' red

In my head

They're in my head

 

I experiment with myself

In my head

In my head

 

Look behind the glass

Try to find peace of mind

And you'll find

Just look behind the man

And lead me

Aaaaahhhaaaaaahaaaa

Aaaaahhhaaaaaahaaaa

 

Look behind the glass

Try to find peace of mind

And you'll find

Just look behind the man

And lead me

 

Look behind the man

Look behind the glass

Look behind the mask

 

 

IT NEVER GOES AWAY

Stanley, Kulick, Cuomo

 

Want it

You can have it

Come and take it

I don't need it

 

Power and possessions

Never quiet your obsessions

Outside, we search for something

Inside, we still have nothing

 

People deep in trouble

Let their money run for double

Outside, they search for something

Inside, they still have nothing

 

It never ends

There's nothing I can do

There's nothing I can say

And even if I could

And even if I would

It never goes away

Yeah

 

Heartless rich and greedy

Watch the churches rape the needy

While we pray for salvation

Preachers yield to temptation

 

It never ends

There's nothing I can do

There's nothing I can say

And even if I could

And even if I would

It never goes away

 

There's nothing I can do

There's nothing I can say

And even if I could

And even if I would

It never goes away

 

Blinded believers and doomsday deceivers

Are driving you out of your head

Look in the mirror, the answer is near

Though your sanity hangs by a thread

 

There's nothing I can do

There's nothing I can say

And even I could

And even I would

It never goes away

 

There's nothing I can do

There's nothing I can say And even if I could

And even if I would

It never goes away

 

 

SEDUCTION OF THE INNOCENT

Simmons, Van Zen

 

He always wears his bible belt

The collar under his head

It's like a noose around his neck

 

His sandaled feet don't touch the ground

Ears don't hear a sound

Seduction Of The Innocent

 

Everybody thinks there's always a reason

Need a reason to cry

You kiss the hand of the man for all seasons

And don't know why

 

Say it friend, if you had to do it all over again

Would you know the trickery that he's prayin?

 

The padre looks well fed

Remember what the good book said

Vultures circle overhead

 

Whatever gets you through the night

Friends sing to clear your mind

Seduction Of The Innocent

 

Everybody thinks there's always a reason

Need a reason to cry

You kiss the hand of a man for all seasons

And don't know why

 

Say it friend, if you had to do it all over again

Would you know the trickery that he's prayin'?

Everybody thinks there's always a reason

Need a reason to cry

You kiss the hand of the man for all seasons

And don't know why

 

Say it friend, if you had to do it all over again

Would you know the trickery that he's prayin'?

 

 

I CONFESS

Simmons, Tamplin

 

When I look into the mirror

Just can't believe, what do I see

There's no wakin' from this nightmare

And you're lost in your reality

 

So you tell me all your secrets

And you tell me that you're innocent

There's something in your eyes I can see

And my face keeps looking back at me

 

You Confess

You can't help yourself

This living lie that you can't go on

You're possessed

You can't fool yourself

You're the crime and you can't go on

 

Another day, another sorrow

No today and no tomorrow

Try and wash away the shame

And you smile in your picture frame

 

You had a charmed life, but you think from grace

And you're long gone without a trace

You're all alone and wonder why

And you laugh when you wanna cry

 

You Confess

You can't help yourself

This living lie that you can't go on

You're possessed

You can't fool yourself

You're the crime and you can't go on

 

You Confess

You can't help yourself

This living lie that you can't go on

You're possessed

You can't fool yourself

You're the crime and it can't go on

 

It can't go on

God never spoke to me about your sin

So livin' in our lies will test the faith

 

So cut your straight lines on the mirror

And dip your hands in holy water

Try and wash away the shame

Cuz all you've got is your father's name

 

(repeat choruses)

 

 

IN THE MIRROR

Stanley, Kulick, Cuomo

 

You were in the right

Until you're left stuck in the middle

I still wonder why

You gave it all for such a little

 

You

Tell me you're only

Scared to be lonely

On and on

 

You

Livin' on credit

Want it, you get it

Right or wrong

 

(chorus) You oughtta take a look in the mirror

Every line's gettin' clearer

See the face you can't deny

 

You appear to me

Appear to be lost in confusion

I don't wanna live

Only to die in your illusion

 

You

Dial information

Station to station

On and on

 

You

Lie to your lover

Make him your cover

Blindfold on

 

You oughtta take a look in the mirror

Every line's gettin' clearer

See the face you can't deny

 

Take a look in the mirror

All your fear gettin' nearer

Nothin' left to get you by

 

Only a matter of time

Leavin' illusion behind

Tick Tock

 

You won't realize

'Till all the eyes are truly open

You can't hide away

Throw what you may, when all is broken

 

Go on and take a look in the mirror

All your fear gettin' nearer

Nothin' left to get you buy

 

You oughtta take a look in the mirror

Every line's gettin' clearer

See the face you can't deny

 

 

I WALK ALONE

 Simmons, Kulick

 

I look deep inside of me

there's a place but its not plain to see

I belong where no on else can be

 

Searching for myself again

Here I'm all alone and when

I Close my eyes -- no one else can see

 

[Chorus]

I Walk Alone, can't you see

I don't belong, let me be

Everything I dreamed of being -- is me

And I got myself to lean on,

got both my feet on the ground

 

And you don't know me,

I don't know me

I can't see you ,

you can't see me

close my eyes and leave the world behind.

 

So I got no heart, got no home

Got no somewhere I belong

I don't know if everything is just fine

 

[Chorus]

I Walk Alone, can't you see

I donšt belong, let me be

Everything I dreamed of being

and I don't belong, can't you see

I Walk Alone, let me be

Everything I dreamed of being -- is me

And I got myself to lean on,

got both my feet on the ground

 

[Solo 1]

So I got no heart and I got no home

And I got no somewhere I belong

I don't know if -- everything is just.....

 

[Solo 2]

And I got myself to lean on,

got both my feet on the ground

And I got myself to lean on,

got both my feet on the ground

 

[Bridge]

And I look deep inside of me

There's a place but it's not plain to see

where I belong where no one else can be

 

And I'm searching for myself again

And here I'm all alone and when

I close my eyes and no on else can see

 

[Solo 3]
