Think

Think about your life, you wouldn't give it up
Think about your life, you wouldn't give it up
Think about your life, Before you're led off to the slaughter, you ought to

And just before you fade out too, I will hold a place for you
Do you remember when we used to? Do you remember when you used to?
Do you remember life?
Well, as you're led out to the slaughter you ought to

Think about your life, you wouldn't give it up
Think about your life, you wouldn't give it up
Think about your life, Before you're led off to the slaughter, you ought to

And just as soon as you will find, That all of this became your life
Do you remember when we used to? Do you remember when you used to?
Do you remember life?
Well, as you're led out to the slaughter you ought to

Think about your life, you wouldn't give it up
Think about your life, you wouldn't give it up
Think about your life, Before you're led off to the slaughter, you ought to

And just as soon as, All of this so
All of this so pure

NOOOOOOOOOOOO
NOOOOOOOOOOOO
NOOOOOOOOOOOO
NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
always for you

Think about your life, you wouldn't give it up
Think about your life, you wouldn't give it up
Think about your life, Before you're led off to the slaughter, you ought to

Think about your life,
Think about your life, you wouldn't give it up
Think about your life, Do you ever stop
Think

Step Up

1 2 3 go
Broken yeah you've been livin
On the edge of a broken dream
Nothing yeah thats the only thing
You'll ever take away from me

I'm never gonna stop
An't never gonna drop
Ain't no different
Then it was before
So take some good advice
You'd better stop and think twice
'Fore you take your first
Step out that door

If you wanna step up (step up)
You're gonna get knocked down (knocked down)
If you wanna step up (step up)
You're gonna get knocked down
You had your chance to walk away
Live to see another day
If you wanna step up (step up)
You're gonna get knocked down(knocked down)
You're gonna get knocked down

Suffering yeah thats the only thing
Here thats left for you
Nothing yeah thats the only thing
You're ever gonna fuckin' do

I'm never gonna stop
An't never gonna drop
Ain't no different
Then it was before
So take some good advice
You'd better stop and think twice
'Fore you take your first
Step out that door

You're gonna get knocked down
And now you've crossed that line
You must be out your mind
No

-Solo-

Chorus

You're gonna get knocked down
You're gonna get knocked down
(Step up)
You're gonna get knocked down
(Step up)
You're gonna get knocked down

Numb

To the man looking back at me
Said why don't you go away
We've all heard your misery
You've been bleeding it for days end

And it's plain when I look into your eyes I see
All you want is everybody's sympathy

So why don't you take all of this and go away
So why do you always look to me this way
When it seems like tomorrow might not come
And it seems like the sorrow has left you numb

And to the world I see
Said we've sat and watched you shine
Pack up all your guilt and please
Leave it all behind

And it's plain when I look into your eyes I see
This could be the way you want your life to be

Numb

Now your gonna bleed
So why don't you just tell me

This Life

And when it's cold out
I will wait for her
And I will roam out
To the edges of the earth
And when it feels just like the rain
Has soaked through my bones
None of this will matter
None of this will save you from yourself

This life
It's brining on the death of me
Swear that I can barely see
That I'm the one to blame
This life
I swear to God it's killin' me
Seems some times I can't believe
That I'm the one to blame
And when it's cold out
In the sleet and snow
I will hold out
'Till the answers all unfold
And when it feels just like the rain
You will see through it all
None of this will matter
'Cause none of this will save you from yourself

None of this will matter
None of this will save your from yourself

Nothingness

And this blood on my hands, Now it won't go away
I've been out on this road, For days
And the fear on the wall, Watch it slowly cascade
As the door holds the wolves at bay, At bay
The emptiness is building from the nothingness, That we've all become
Yeah that we've all become
And this road that I've chosen has taken it's toll
Leading far, far away from the soul
And the fear on the wall, Watch it slowly cascade
As the door holds the wolves at bay, At bay
The emptiness is building from the nothingness, That we've all become
The nothingness, This thing I've become seems it's taken control of
My mind and my body, my will and my soul
Driving further and further away from myself
Until there's nothing left, I've become something else
The emptiness is building from the nothingness, That we've all become (x3)
That's we've all become (x7)

Bringing Me Down

Everyday, always the same
I hear your name and it cuts through me like a chainsaw
And I fall back into that simple fool that you once knew

And just as soon as I let you back in
Seems I'm reminded of all of this again

Bringing me down

How much more will it take
'Till I break
And I dived that stake
Right into that think that you call your heart
Hell it's fallen apart
And I don't think it worked right from the start
Just as soon as I let you back in
Seems I'm reminded of all of this again

Bringing me down

I can't believe that I let you walk all over me
I can't believe that you had such a hold on me

Bringing me down

Love And War

Promise that you always will, Candle lit on a window sill
You know that I'll be coming home
You know I never wanted to go away, but what am I suppose to say
When I hear the sound of the trumpets call
Who says, All is fair in
All is fair in love and war
I have your pictures kept close to my heart, Letters all but fall apart
Each night I read them over again
You know I never wanted to go away, but what am I suppose to say
When I hear the sound of the trumpets call
Who says, All is fair in
All is fair in love and war
No I never wanted to go away, I swear
I swear, It's war
All is fair in, Love and war

Forget

I can see it your eyes
Why you're here tonight
LookinG for that something sacred you'll never find
And you know there must be some way
To wash away the pain
Just like you did your faith

So we can
Forget
Forget
Forget
Forget the fear you try to hide
Forget
Forget
Forget
Forget the pain you keep inside
(all the pain you keep inside)

And before we all regress
To this emptiness
Crawl across the floor once more
Scraping hands and knees
And just know there must be some way
To wash away the pain
Just like you did your faith

So we can
Forget
Forget
Forget
Forget the fear you try to hide
Forget
Forget
Forget
Forget the pain you keep inside

I know that all of us must feel this way
I know that all of us must feel this way

Forget the past
Forget the pain
Forget your fear

Yeah
So we can
Forget
Forget
Forget
Forget the fear you try to hide
Forget
Forget
Forget
Forget the pain you keep inside
Forget
Forget
Forget
Forget the fear you try to hide
Forget
Forget
Forget
Forget the pain you keep inside
Forget the pain you keep inside
Forget the pain you keep inside
Forget
Forget
Forget

Cast Me Aside

So you think that you got it all figured out
I told you, you got no clue what it is all about
Now you want to cling to the next big thing
Be part of the scene and ride the big machine
Well it aint gonna work out that way
Now you want to cling to the next big thing
Be part of the scene and ride the big machine
Well it aint gonna work out that way

What, who, where were you when I was down on my luck you know you never gave a fuck
You just cast me aside
What who where were when I needed you,
You know you never came through
And now you wanna come along for the ride

I told you I know you as well as you think you do
I showed you just how easy you are to see straight through

Now you want to cling to the next big thing
Be part of the scene and ride the big machine
Well it aint gonna work out that way
Now you want to cling to the next big thing
Be part of the scene and ride the big machine
Well it aint gonna work out that way

What, who, where were you when I was down on my luck you know you never gave a fuck
You just cast me aside
What ,who, where were when I needed you
You know you never came through
And now you wanna come along for the ride

Nothing to me you're nothing to me (repeats)

What, who, where were you (repeats)

Killin' Me

Like cigarettes and gasoline
I light a match and watch this scene
Burn away in front of me
Ashes of my misery

I swear sometimes I think this life is killing me

I swear it's killin me
All our shattered hopes
And our long dead dreams
The wreckage that we all try to keep
From coming to life
And tearing us apart at the seams

Sun bleached bones and withered trees
Slowly rotting just like me
Empty bottles broken glass
My resolve is fading fast

I swear sometimes I think this life is killing me

I swear it's killin me
All our shattered hopes
And our long dead dreams
The wreckage that we all try to keep
From coming to life
And tearing us apart at the seams

Hate

bury the priest and burn religion alive
baptized at birth with the black brush's wine
the uncrowned king unholy
forget about the crusifix,
my rising sign is 666!

can't you see the way they twist and turn
you watch it burn
just stand right here and watch the tables turn
you want the world,
i'll show the way,
just raise your fist and let me here you say:

hate, you want it
say hate, you need it,
say hate, you want it
come on, come on, come on, come on
get it, get it, go!
get it, get it, go

incarnation can bring down the stars
five-thousand times and their service is ours!
obscene, unclean, unholy
the losers, dope-fiends, and don't forget
the worthless, no-good piece of shit

come with me and we'll drink a toast to anarchy
all we need is excess in ecstasy
you want it all
i'll know the way
just raise your fist and let me hear you say

hate you want it,
say hate, you need it,
say hate, you want it,
come on, come on, come on, come on,
get it, get it,
hate you want it,
say hate, you need it,
say hate, you want it,
come on, come on, come on, come on,
get it, get it, GO!

and though it's plain to see,
in our society, all of us will bleed
but your war is not with me
there are many of those who oppose us [3x's]
who oppose us [2x's]

all of this could always be the way that you would want it to
come on and sell your soul
it's what you want to do
this could be the only way
forget about the judgement day
ignorance is bliss, so raise your first and say

hate, you want it
say hate, you need it,
say hate, you want it
come on, come on, come on, come on
get it, get it,hate, you want it
say hate, you need it,
say hate, you want it
come on, come on, come on, come on
get it, get it, go!

get it, get it, go[2x's]

come on, come on, come on, come on,
get it, get it, go!
