Jennifer Lost The War
Jennifer lost the war today you'll find her burnt and raped Through it all she must have wondered "what have I done?" But nobody really cares today the world's a busy place Guess she really must've seen now Really seen now I guess we're all just soldiers She was only 6 years old Left to die by strangers And if we're all just soldiers is it so wrong to be afraid? Jennifer lost the war Jeannie lost the war today there must be some mistake They say it all the time and they said it then Little Miss 15 55 her soul remains ungraved She must have really seen now Really seen now Morality won't help her All her sorrows left her But the morning headlines even say that it's a shame What are we headin' for Jennifer lost the war
Seen it all before Started on the ground then it walked away And I wonder how many more everybody take it like there's nothin' to say Jennifer lost lost lost the war
I guess we're all just soldiers She was only 6 years old Left to die by strangers And wait'll the morning headlines even say that it's a shame What are we headin' for

Elders
When we younger There always seemed like some Some perfect mold That we're supposed to be But now we're growing up and I see it's just not that way Now I feel like someones lied to me Cause I've been true Made good for you And now I feel used I'm asking you How does it feel How does it feel How does it feel To be like you Tell me now elders
What wre your reasons for Making it seem Like you were so much more If you want to feel good
Because of our accomplishments Why the fuck Don't you just do it yourself
Cause I've tried Man I've tried While you all lied So now just tell me How does it feel How does it feel How does it feel To be like you
Look at all the families now Who don't talk and don't trust Because of the way That things have been done When will you finally learn To leave out the bullshit And just be straight with us

Out On Patrol
Look at my soldier boy now With that big gun in your little hand As you patrol this foreign land Hear the mine that clicks beneath your feet
Now do you see the light Fading while your world is crumbling Out on patrol And all you can do is sit and stare What revelation have you now What culmination to your speck of life Your moment in time
As you sit here all alone Will your buddies come and save your life But as the enemy appears See your life flash before your eyes

Crossroads
Time has washed away And now I may wonder How did it all slip by Cause I always thought We had forever Future calls to me To take me away from things I don't want to leave behind Like I'm slipping away I can't hold on
Find that path alone Crossroads lead me away But thats not what worries me I just want to know whats home
Through it all My mind still wanders To the one who touched my soul Though her road leads away She's still my True love I could believe
Will is not enough when all those Lost days stand in the way But she was My hopes and dreams my Whole world I could believe
I still want to know Who can see for me Crossroads tell me
Now you'll have to trade Your past away And find another day So is change a friend or an enemy
Through what comes to pass I'll find my way I've seen it all before But is the best you can be The best thing to be Some people say You're just wasting time But thats not what worries me I just want to know whats home

Demons
Clouds pass over the moon Like an eye that shows impending doom Tension in this misty air Souls pass into the room Drawn in by a lost memory You will join them in the moonlight
You are my offering Your soul transcends The centuries of pain Your misery in life Is your ecstasy in death
Time passes like the wind As we race to beat days dusky grin Mornings just a moment away Your body glistens in candlelight As we all look on in fiendish delight The ritual is just beginning
Come fulfill the prophecy With our demons of debauchery As virgins and spectress sing This madness will never cease
In the dead of night You will follow In the footsteps of many others Who have come before I will show you the altar Your aztec eyes, egyptian hair Your beauty bestoved upon my lair I've loved you before, in other lives But youve never ment as much to me Never meant as much to me as now
In this night of sacrafice where blood is spilt That will never spill again But in your linen robes We want you now We want you now You could never ask for more than that
You are my offering Your soul transcends The centuries of pain Your misery in life Is your ecstasy in Come fulfill the prophecy With our demons of debauchery This madness will never cease

Beheaded
Mommy doesn't have a head any more Keep it underneath my bed on the floor Well thats alright, man thats OK She never really used her head anyway
Daddy called me a stupid boy Bet he wont say that any more Cause the way his body is severed too His vocal cords are gonna be hard to use
Beheaded, watch him squirt like a garden hose Beheaded, bloody mess all over my clothes
Watch my girl friend come to the door Chop off her head, she falls to the floor Now watching my baby's jugular blow Really makes my motor go
Wrap a towel round the bloody stump Take my baby's body to the city dump Then wipe the mess off the bloody axe Scoope all the feads into my pull-up sack
Beheaded, watch her squirt like a garden hose Beheaded, bloody mess all over my clothes
All my collection, adorns my room on bedroom polls Use to be a little, but a little got more and more Now I'm craving yours
Night brings bad dreams, bad dreams and guillotines Night brings bad dreams, bad dreams and guillotines
Off with her head Off with her head Off with her head Off with her head Off with her head Off with her head
Find another victim for my machine Put 'em in a home-made guillotine Blade falls, gonna need a casket Watch your head plop in a wicker basket
Leave the house at a quarter to four Come back with sixteen or more Cause the more I walk, the more I see I got a funny feeling coming over me
Beheaded, watch you squirt like a garden hose Beheaded, bloody mess all over my clothes

Tehran
In your plane in the blue sky You roam again Word that echo in your mind Make you heart beat faster This is no Vietnam We will win in Iran
The President said let it ride Islam be damned Make your last stand In Tehran
Warrior, the time bombs About to go What will you feel Will you even wonder If the man that'sin your sights Ever kissed his girl goodbye
The President said let it ride Islam be damned Make your last stand In Tehran
Great Satan Our flags our burning
Soon America may find Its young men in the sand Where there casualty Is just a number In Iran
The President said let it ride Islam be damned Make your last stand In Tehran

A Thousand Days
Ask me no questions and I'll tell you I'll tell you no lies When all is said and done Does it really matter who's wrong or right Don't ask me for a reason, I can't explain Why we hurt one another again and again As I lie bleeding here I still I still reach for you
A thousand days Have passed away A thousand days Were captured in her eyes
Your eyes are open now but you know Its still hard to see inside When action and intention Are two seperate things Now I somehow wish I could explain Why we hurt each other again and again Like someone on his dying breath I still reach for you
A thousand days Have passed away A thousand days Were captured in her eyes
Forever we've been Trapped by our hearts Trapped by our minds I'd like to leave I'd like to win at love
But I just can't let it go And I just can't watch it slipping away And I just can't let it go And I just can't stand another minute
Maybe now someday our shattered lives Will mend themselves again But now a million miles away I still wish I could And though I somehow know, I can't explain Why we hurt another again and again Like someone on his dying breath I still reach for you

Black Ball
In this world of hate and shallowness Where enemies become your consolation And those of us who win the game give up our minds I don't call that winning Say this doesn't apply to you But ask yourself first What have I done today to win the game And just what have I sacrificed
Win the battle lose the war I know I've played this game before When people were still real I don't want this anymore It's time for me to close the door There's nothing left to feel
Reflect on all our yesterdays My own words choke me Why were they spoken Regret for the things I've said and done Just can't compare with Regret for those that I have never tried So blame this world or blame yourself It's really all the same When you are standing on the precipice From which you just can't return
Win the battle lose the war I know I've played this game before When people were still real I don't want this anymore It's time for me to close the door There's nothing left to feel
In the style of forgotten men I look to my horizon I see nothing While thoughts of guns and desecration Sweep through my mind But only coffins and bones remain As I look to you The emptiness behind your eyes Seals my decision Can't carry on in this world of juggling Where all this thoughtlessness and bludgeoning Your key to success What kind of tradition to carry on
Blackball The new disease Blackball The new disease Blackball Your evil ways Have found their way inside me
Blackball The new disease Blackball The new disease Blackball For a better life In this high tech dog eat dog existence
(Chorus)

I'll Be Waiting
Once I had a friend that I could count on So I thought Well so it seemed But times of need are not enough To prove your friendship to me now Once I saw a face that I believed in But a mask was all there was So who wears the masks and who wears the faces Well I guess I'll never know
But as I stand here alone in a room full of people With nothing to say Beer on their minds, and smoke in the air Call them feiends but they just don't care
Friend for life Such shallow words for brokrn minds Show me a friend for life Cause I'll be waiting for that day to arrive When I'll feel alive I'll be waiting for that day
Once I found a love I had to know Now we might know each other just too well Cause when we're together we just can't get enough Or is it we just can't get what we want Once I saw a dream, I had to chase it Dreams quickly turn to reality Who's at fault in this game of yours and mine Well I guess I'll never know
But as I sit here alone Think of the girl who came softly inside me The look in her eyes, the smell of her hair Call her my own but is she really there?
Love for life Such noble words for noble minds Show me a love for life Cause I'll be waiting for that day to arrive When I'll feel alive I'll be waiting for that day
Once I had a friend that I could count on Times of need are not enough Once I found a love I had to know Now we might know each other just too well Once I saw a dream I had to chase it Dreams quickly turn to reality Now let me close my eyes Because I don't want to see anymore

Kill The President
In a world without leaders Who'd start all the wars? The world that your saving Will always be yours
Kill the President Listen to the voice of reason Unify with that single line Stop the man with the power Of the goverment A leader's not the center Of democracy
In a world without leaders Who'd make people starve? The world that we're saving Will always be ours
Everyone says Well maybe I'll make a difference Thinking they've got plenty of time But you're squezed A little tighter everyday Finished before you can commit a crime
In a world without leaders Who'd start all the wars? The world that your saving Will always be yours
Kill the President Listen to the voice of reason Unify with that single line Stop the man with the power Of the goverment A leader's not the center Of democracy
America All of your eminies Come from within But you lash out so It is seen Like some frightened child In an angry world Or the fall of Rome Your demise comes From your own hands
In a world without leaders Who'd start all the wars? The world that your saving Will always be yours
In a world without leaders We might have a chance But we'll never see it As long as there's | | |
