Little Green Men

Out of the playground's ashes, come little men with little games
They're playing war, planning new crusades, like new arcades
The reason for the season is to flood the media with sucidal mania
And paint the landscape with this human waste

So lets all sing, sing a song of life, sing untill our throats bleed, and if
this child could speak he would say: I dont need anybody,
I dont need anyone, I dont need your guidance home

Yeah, yeah, history's a stage for reruns for 3 am insomniacs, who quote
the episodes: "If tricycles came with guns we'd all be safe" And
little green men didnt come from outter space, with coupons in the
sunday paper they came from corporate brains

So lets all sing, sing a song of life, sing until our throats bleed,
and if this child could speak he would say: I dont need anybody,
I dont need anyone, I dont need your guidance home, watch as
I build my empire, watch as I rise and fall, watch as I fight all alone

So untill we all confess and admit we stole the candy, these little men are
playing games from here to eternity, but I'll be sitting by myself here
waiting oh so patiently, waiting for the sky to fall and purge this frail
humanity

So lets all sing, sing a song of life and we'll pretend were not to blame
lets sing, sing, sing, sing a song of life, sing until our throats bleed
and if this child could speak he would say: I dont need anybody,
I dont need anyone, I dont need your guidance home watch as I
bulid my empire, watch as I rise and fall, watch as I fight all alone

Caught In The Middle

caught the middle is my mind...

One side of me you love
One side of me

You love you love one side of me
You love you love one side of me
You love you love one side of me
This one side of me you love

And In the middle my head is spinning
And I don't want to loose my mind

Caught in the middle is my mind

One side of me you love to hate
One side of me

You love to hate this side of me
You love to hate this side of me
You love to hate this side of me
This one side of me you hate

And in the middle my head is spinning
I don't want to loose my mind

Caught in the middle is my mind
You love to hate you
You love you love to hate

One side of me you love
One side of me is one you love
One side of me you hate
Caught in the middle is my in the middle is my mind
One side of me is the one you...

Know What It Means

Remember what its like to be you?
To be you
Remember what its like to be me?
To be me
All that I see these eyes in my dreams
These thought police coming for me

Do you know what it means
What it means to be free
Do you know what it means
To be free? (me)
Neither do I
Neither do we

Do you know what its like to be one
One of us
Do you know what its like to be one
One of us
One is the family perfect in apathy
Being a clone isn't all that it promised to be

I am invisible just like you
Just a reflection of what I consume
Now I myself will be consumed
Consumed for the sake of you

Salem's Suburbs

They put on disguises today
To hide the scarlet letters
That each of us has put so far away

In this witch trial
Modern day

Despite this it seems that the powers be
Have decided who I am
And who I will be

Who I am who I'll be
Has been decided for me
And they don't even know me

As they pounded in the stake
I thought I heard them say
�Become like us or you will be slain�

You can't tell me who I am

...A Word From Our Sponsors

are you tired of losing rest
are you in desperate need of peace
well your problems my friend will soon begin to cease
i am your local truthless hero
your saviour in the little screen
please dont worry your local truthless hero is here while you sleep

S.M.C.

Big business ain't easy
I'm sure you'd agree
Especially when the product is eternity-
To stay one step ahead we must achieve
And turn this holy temple
Into a factory
Is there anywhere you can run
To hide from these thieves' -
Cause eternity's on sale today for a fee

Faith is buying me away
Buying me a way
To convert the masses into little servants
Faith is buying me away
Buying me a way
Buying me into your home (soul)

Our sanctuary of this high-rise
Our steeples our billboards
Our slogans our converts
Oh don't forget to buy this T-shirt
As you leave
And open up the offering box
And give until it hurts
Show me an open heart and we'll steal it away
Cause eternity's on up for sale for a small fee today
You Know

This altar is a stage
Our sponsor must be paid
And maybe even make the front page

Team Black

I don't even like the taste of blood
But it was all they had for sale today
And this is hunger that just won't go away
I was taught to drink my fill of you
You were taught to take take take from me

The more I taste the more I need
The more it (You) makes me ill
The more I taste the more I need
Need my fill of you

You are a sight for hungry eyes today
I am needing more of you inside of me
I am nothing more than what they've made of me
I was taught to drink my fill of you
You were taught to take take take from me

And when my objects become used
I throw them all away
And when I need another fill
I'll turn to you again

Your Heroes Are Dead

There's something coming,
And its coming for you,
The mob is restless,
Looking for something new,
You lead us here,
With an eternal promise,
The gallows are calling,
For you to pay for this.

Now that we're left here on our own,
There is nowhere left to turn,
Who will see us through?

Your heroes are dead,
They were all in your head,
When nothing is left we'll start again.
Your heroes are dead,
They were all in your head,
When nothing is left we'll start again.

What fitting ends,
To our fearless fathers,
The cost of treason,
Isn't paid in dollars,
With nothing left,
There is nothing to lose,
We'll watch the city gates,
Falling all around you.

Now that we're left here on our own,
There is nowhere left to turn,
Who will see us through?

Your heroes are dead,
They were all in your head,
When nothing is left we'll start again.
Your heroes are dead,
They were all in your head,
When nothing is left we'll start again.

You said I'd never make it,
That I could only fail,
But I'm the one who's standing,
And what has happened to you?

Now that we're left here on our own,
There is nowhere left to turn,
Who will see us through?
Now that we've said goodbye to you,
We've started something new,
Who will see us through?

Your heroes are dead,
They were all in your head,
When nothing is left we'll start again.

Your heroes are gone,
They left with the dawn,
Now its just us,
We'll carry on.

Your heroes are dead,
They were all in your head,
When nothing is left we'll start again.

Your heroes are gone,
They left with the dawn,
Now its just us,
We'll carry on.

...To Brighten Your Day

Another Boredom Movement

You were conceived on a storyboard
In an uptown high-rise
Where your celebrity born
From obscurity

Oh, keep screaming!

And the list keeps growing
And our ears keep bleeding
And the masses keep begging for more (Go! Go! Go!)
And your screams keep coming
And the units keep moving
And the masses keep begging for more (Go! Go! Go!)

The grins of your puppeteers are beaming
Because the quotas will be made
Or your time in the spotlight will fade
At the hands of the same pigs that made you

So speak of movements
To move more units
And invent brand name for your 'believers'
Like brands on slaves

So, so,
We'll still be waiting for something stimulating (x2)
In the end all you sold us was boredom (x2)
(Go! Go! Go!)
In the end all you sold us was boredom (x2)
(Go! Go! Go!)
In the end all you sold us was boredom (x4)
(We'll still be waiting for something stimulating) (x2)

Bottom Feeder

So little of what seems to be
Is ever really there
So much of what's here I resent
I am a demagogue
Born of eternal flaw
Forever just a memory my friend
So when I disappear
She will still be here
Sifting my remains through the ashes

She's not ordinary
She's just like me

But there is something wrong
Inside of me that says
That she and I are one in the same
So I'm not alone
She's just like me

Shelter Me * Mercury

Not found

...And Help You Sleep

Last Meal

I am lost inside your lair
And allowed you to lure me here
You promised immortality
I've become your newest meat
And I am ripe for the feast
And I am dripping form their mouths
As they say to me:

Well eat what's left of you before we're through

The lust for blood within reach
We've woken under your feet
No longer
Frightened by these vampires
This situation is clear
No longer clouded by fear
Like cornered dogs we'll turn and
Bite the hand that feeds but does not kill

Sleep and dream
Hiding from the day
Pay no mind to shapes that wind
Around you where you lay there will be time for waking
There will be time for taking
But who?
But you-
Parasites come in many shapes
And you forgot that we have teeth too
While you were feeding off our blood we
Became one of you
There is something coming that you forgot me friend
The very beast that you create is the one who'll slay you in the end
You thought I'd go down easy
But now you're coming
With me
You'll burn with me
You'll never take us alive

Soma

The only thing I recall is
Those shadows coming my way
Comforting me with their searchlights
To guide me home again
We will take
We will take
That wretched heart away
And when you come to
You'll thank us
For this new you we've made

'''Chorus:'''
Now I'm left here fading away
Far away
Far away
So now I'm left here fading away
Far away
Far away
From me

So now I wait as they make me
Into someone else
If I believe what they tell me
I'm tired of being myself
Cause they take and they take
A piece of me everyday
And we will help you belong here
With this new you we've made

[Chorus]

If you could amputate my heart
Then I will learn to smile and then
You can replace me with yourself
And I'll become the model citizen
And I will tell them all
That I had this breakthrough surgery
They give you a pill
They remove your heart
And replace it with a battery

[Chorus]

Hollow Again

Somehow I lost my way
And now it's clear to me
All that I fought so hard to keep
Is all I had to leave

I know you can't hear me
And you won't believe me
But there is something I must say here
Before I fade away

(This is the way the world ends again)

'''Chorus:'''
Forever we will be hollow
Forever we will be
Forever we will be hollow
Hollow again

So I'm left here waiting
So long I'm contemplating
And now I know how it is
But now it's far too late

(This is the way the world ends again)

[Chorus]

How will we open the eyes of the dead
When we are hollow
Hollow

And all along here I was told
By fallen men in their charade
That we could find a hope inside
The safety of this empty place

(This is the way the world ends again)

[Chorus]

...With Regards, T.H.

(Instrumental)
