Walk

Can’t you see I’m easily bothered by persistence
One step from lashing out at you…
You want in to get under my skin
And call yourself a friend
I’ve got more friends like you
What do I do?

Is there no standard anymore?
What it takes, who I am, where I’ve been
Belong
You can’t be something you’re not
Be yourself, by yourself
Stay away from me
A lesson learned in life
Known from the dawn of time

Respect, walk

Run your mouth when I’m not around
It’s easy to achieve
You cry to weak friends that sympathize
Can you hear the violins playing you song?
Those same friends tell me your every word

Are you talking to me?
No way punk

Slave To The Grind

You got me forced to crack
my lids in two
I’m still stuck inside this rubber room
I gotta punch the clock that
leads the blind
I’m just another gear in the assembly
line – oh no

The noose gets tighter around
my throat
But I ain’t at the end of my rope ’cause
I won’t be the one left behind
Can’t be king of the world
If you’re slave to the grind
Tear down the rat racial slime
Can’t be king of the world
If you’re slave to the grind

Get it?

A routine injection, a lethal dose
But my day in the sun ain’t even close
There’s no need to waste
your prayers on me
You better mark my words
’cause I’m history
Yes indeed

You might beg for mercy to get by
But I’d rather tear this thorn
from my side

I won’t be the one left behind
You can’t be king of the world
If you’re slave to the grind
Tear down the rat racial slime
Can’t be king of the world
If you’re slave to the grind

They swallowed thier daggers by
turning their trick
They tore my intentions apart
brick by brick
I’m sick of the jive
You talk verbal insecticide

They swallowed thier daggers by
turning their trick
They tore my intentions apart
brick by brick
I’m sick of the jive
You talk verbal insecticide

I won’t be the one left behind

You can’t be king of the world
If you’re slave to the grind
Tear down the rat racial slime
You can’t be king of the world
If you’re slave to the grind

I said slave to the grind
Slave to the grind
Slave to the grind

Bully

It’s 8 AM, this Hell I’m in
Seems I’ve crossed the line again
For being nothing more than who I am
So break my bones and throw your stones
We all know that life ain’t fair
But there is more of us, we’re everywhere

We don’t have to take this, back against the wall
We don’t have to take this, we can end it all

All you’ll ever be is a fading memory of a bully
Make another joke while they hang another rope, so lonely
Push them to the dirt till the words don’t hurt
Can you hear me?
No one’s gonna cry on the very day you die
You’re a bully

Think it through, you can’t undo
Whenever I see black and blue
I feel the past, I share the bruise
With everyone who’s come and gone
My head is clear, my voice is strong, now I’m right here to right the wrong

We don’t have to take this, back against the wall
We don’t have to take this, we can end it all
All you’ll ever be is a fading memory of a bully
Make another joke while they hang another rope, so lonely
Push them to the dirt till the words don’t hurt
Can you hear me?
No one’s gonna cry on the very day you die
You’re a bully

(Solo)

It’s 8 AM, the Hell I’m in
Your voice is strong, now right the wrong!

All you’ll ever be is a fading memory of a bully
Make another joke while they hang another rope, so lonely
Push them to the dirt till the words don’t hurt
Can you hear me?
No one’s gonna cry on the very day you die
You’re a bully

All you’ll ever be is a fading memory of a bully
Make another joke while they hang another rope, so lonely
Push them to the dirt till the words don’t hurt
Can you hear me?
No one’s gonna cry on the very day you die
You’re a bully

We don’t have to take this, back against the wall
We don’t have to take this, we can end it all (x4)

Now

I wanna know you better
Let’s spend some time together
I wanna be what’s on your mind

Look in my eyes they’re calling
I need your love to fall in
If you could just give me a sign

I can’t get over baby
I can’t get over now
I can’t get over this feeling I feel

Chorus:
NOW, right now
If the fire inside you
Feels like I feel
NOW, right now
Deep inside of me
Deep inside of me.

I’m tired of make believin’, I’m lost and barely breathin’
I’m on the ceiling help me down….yeahhh
So stop my heart from achin’
I’ll be the risk your takin’
And I won’t rest until you’re mine..ohhh…

I wanna show you baby
I wanna show you now
I wanna tell ya this feeling I feel…

Chorus:
NOW, right now
If the fire inside you
Feels like I feel
NOW, right now
If it’s love you’re craving
It’s the love worth saving

I can’t get over this feeling I feel now
Yeah.

Now, right now
Let the fire inside you
Burn like I do…

Chorus:
NOW, right now
If it’s the love you’re craving
It’s the love worth saving
Deep inside of me
Deep inside
Deep inside of me

Deep inside
Deep inside of me
Deep inside of me
Deep inside.

Dream On

Every time when I look in the mirror
All these lines on my face getting clearer
The past is gone
It went by, like dusk to dawn
Isn’t that the way
Everybody’s got the dues in life to pay

I know nobody knows
Where it comes and where it goes
I know it’s everybody sin
You got to lose to know how to win

Half my life
Is books written pages
Live and learn from fools and
From sages
You know it’s true, oh
All these things you do come back to you

Sing with me, sing for the years
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tears
Sing with me, just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good lord will take you away

Yeah, sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tear
Sing with me, just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away

Dream on
Dream on
Dream on
Dream until your dreams come true
Dream on
Dream on
Dream on
Dream until your dreams come true
Dream on
Dream on
Dream on
Dream on
Dream on
Dream on
Dream on

Sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tear
Sing with me, just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away
Sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tear
Sing with me, just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away.

Cold Blood

Cruisin’ downtown
Shakin’ her love
T and A talkin’ to me
Felt my heart drop
Wheeled a dead stop
Girl has got me on my knees
Baby baby babe don’t make me wonder
Won’t you let me in
She said – see you later
Shot down
I’ll be back again

Good love is all you need
But you don’t wanna know
Cold blood is all you bleed
When it cools off – you tease it
When it gets hot – you freeze it
Cold blood is all you bleed

Dresses so tight
Moving to the beat
Set my feet on fire
Dream come true I want to give it to you
Let the flame get higher
Baby baby you’re driving me crazy
Like a cat in a cage
You make me sh-sh-sh-shiver – earthquake
Down town to the blaze

Good love is all you need
Give me what I know
Cold blood is all you bleed
When it cools off – you tease it
When it gets hot – you freeze it
Cold blood is all you bleed

You make me so hot
I feel my temperature rise
Don’t shoot me down – No

When it cools off – you tease it
When it gets hot – you freeze it
Cold blood is all you bleed

(group participation)

Cold blood is all you bleed
Cold blood is all you bleed
Cold blood is all you bleed

Bodies

Let the bodies hit the floor
Let the bodies hit the floor
Let the bodies hit the floor

Beaten why for
Can’t take much more

Here we go…Here we go…Here we go

One – Nothing wrong with me
Two – Nothing wrong with me
Three – Nothing wrong with me
Four – Nothing wrong with me

One – Something’s got to give
Two – Something’s got to give
Three – Something’s got to give
Now

Let the bodies hit the floor
Let the bodies hit the floor
Let the bodies hit the floor

Let the bodies hit the floor
Let the bodies hit the floor
Let the bodies hit the floor

Push me again
This is the end

Here we go…Here we go…Here we go

One – Nothing wrong with me
Two – Nothing wrong with me
Three – Nothing wrong with me
Four – Nothing wrong with me

One – Something’s got to give
Two – Something’s got to give

Now

Let the bodies hit the floor
Let the bodies hit the floor
Let the bodies hit the floor

Let the bodies hit the floor
Let the bodies hit the floor
Let the bodies hit the floor
Let the bodies hit the floor

Skin against skin blood and bone
You’re all by yourself but you’re not alone
You wanted in now you’re here
Driven by hate consumed by fear

Let the bodies hit the floor
Let the bodies hit the floor
Let the bodies hit the floor
Let the bodies hit the floor

One – Nothing wrong with me
Two – Nothing wrong with me
Three – Nothing wrong with me
Four – Nothing wrong with me

One – Something’s got to give
Two – Something’s got to give
Three – Something’s got to give
Now

Let the bodies hit the floor

Let the bodies hit the floor

The floor…The floor…The floor…The floor

Higher

When dreaming I’m guided to another world
Time and time again
At sunrise I fight to stay asleep
‘Cause I don’t want to leave the comfort of this place
‘Cause there’s a hunger, a longing to escape
From the life I live when I’m awake
So let’s go there
Let’s make our escape
Come on, let’s go there
Let’s ask can we stay?

Can you take me Higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me Higher?
To a place with golden streets

Although I would like our world to change
It helps me to appreciate
Those nights and those dreams
But, my friend, I’d sacrifice all those nights
If I could make the Earth and my dreams the same
The only difference is
To let love replace all our hate
So let’s go there
Let’s make our escape
Come on, let’s go there
Let’s ask can we stay?

Can you take me Higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me Higher?
To a place with golden streets

So lets go there, lets go there,
Come on, lets go there
Lets ask can we stay?

Up high I feel like I’m alive for the very first time
Set up high I’m strong enough to take these dreams
And make them mine
Set up high I’m strong enough to take these dreams
And make them mine

Can you take me Higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me Higher?
To a place with golden streets

Can you take me Higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me Higher?
To a place with golden streets

Tonight

I’m not gonna waste this
This opportunity’s mine
I’m sick of complaining
About a beautiful life

How did we get here?
Did we forget all the things inside?
And how do we stay here?
Do we embrace all the things denied?

I feel so alive tonight
You got me feeling sublime
I want to yell it from the rooftops down
Until it’s over, and we’re older

For my entertainment
You tell a whimsical lie
To keep me complacent
You knock me down with a smile

How did we get here?
How do we pretend everything’s alright?
And how do we stay here?
Do we erase all the fear inside?

I feel so alive tonight
You got me feeling sublime
I want to yell it from the rooftops down
Until it’s over, and we’re older

Like sugar and cyanide
These worlds are gonna collide
I want to yell it from the rooftops down
Until it’s over, and we’re older

So take me, but go slow
Let me hide somewhere I know
And let this seed grow
Until we finally call this home
So take me, but go slow
Let me hide somewhere I know
And let this seed grow
Until we finally call this home

If I was to die tonight
Would it tear you apart?
Would you yell it from the rooftops down?
Until it’s over, and you’re older

I feel so alive tonight
You’ve got me feeling sublime
I want to yell it from the rooftops down
Until it’s over, and we’re older
Like sugar and cyanide
Our worlds are meant to collide
I’m gonna yell it from the rooftops down
Till it’s over, and we’re older
