Life on the brink
How outrageous
You sympathize like it's contagious
Remember what to do
Remember what to say
Learn to love your burdens
And never get in the way
You won't get respect through control
You can lose yourself and never know
Inoffensive
Disaffected
Unexceptional waste
No room to breathe
(Malignant sow of a victim)
A man is who he fleeces
(Live for the hustle)
You're counting down until you've made your millions
Masticating cowards napalming children
So deep, and wide, and unknown
No wonder you're all alone
Disconnected
Unrepresented
Ineffectual waste
You won't get respect through control
You can lose yourself and never know
Inoffensive
Disaffected
Unexceptional waste

Alienation

Find something strong to quench my tears
And sleep at the end of the day
I can't outrun my fate
Not even if it killed me dead
How could we?
Left nothing at all as it should be
Haste to face my waste
And embrace my alienation
Rise above
Embrace my alienation
Rise above
Get back from the media glow
No one cares if nothing changes
Cuz nothing changes anyway
Penetrate the conversation
And get your head in the game
You rigged the contest
You bought apologists
And then you wonder why
Your enemy speaks with their fists
You've done your part
That war is over
So lick your wounds, and be praised
You know that nothing changes
So turn your despair into rage
Time's up, boss
You took too long, and you lost us
Hate enough to change my station
And embrace my alienation
Rise above
Embrace my alienation
Rise above
Get back from the media glow
Embrace my alienation
Get back from the media glow

Burn It Down

Take the pain for all it's worth
Is it apathy or shame that's gonna get to you first?
We've yet to see what good you're for
But I'd resign your fate
From the cradle of your mother
To the boot on your grave
So far away, all hope is lost
You know that none of this matters
You can learn to love your cage
And embrace the heartbreak
So unless you want a piece of this
You would not want to see me around
We're gonna paint the town red tonight
And then I'm gonna burn it all down
Such aggression you've not seen before
Await the coming chase
When the arms of your salvation
Hold a gun in your face
Taking life in anticipation
Of a world that lay shattered
I should have left you something more
Than a promise I would break
You're not without your dignity
It's kept you strong, much to your credit
But if you think one moment will save your life
You can forget it
Won't try to hide my pride
Cuz I deserve more
I will get mine
You and I will paint the town red tonight
And then I'm gonna burn it all down
Until there's nothing left

Climb the walls just to show them all
And leave it up for no debate
Close your eyes to find the strength to concentrate
Rock the boat until they wonder what to say
To face it
And then the tension slips beneath my skin
Full of salty sweat to drown me in
So tell me what to do instead
How to live when I'd rather be dead
I would kill for it, I confess
Got the taste for it on my lips
Just saw it on a broken TV
And it set me free
Clumsy hands and a master plan
That leaves you lusting for the truth
Fitting then the faith you find is so uncouth
A monument to broken hearts and wasted youth
Let's get it over with
Can you take it back
Just to tear it all down
You asked for it
Now you'd better be proud
I would kill for it, I confess
Got the taste for it on my lips
Just saw it on a broken TV
And it set me free
Underneath this disappointment
Your resentment, my enjoyment
And dedication to erase this violation
Condescending and remorseless
Human effort you exploit as all things decay
Use me up and throw me away
I would kill for it, I confess
Got the taste for it on my lips
Just saw it on a broken TV
And it set me free

Writing plans on the wall
To imagine my escape
When, in fact, all the words
Only tie me to this place
Many facets to your virtue
That I fail to perceive
It is hard to believe in
Something you have never seen
Then I lost my faith
When you could not
Lay down the sword
For all peace, we must assume
That if the risk is real, threat rules the room
While you waste all your precious time
I will brave the dark to come into the light
Fighting fire with my fist
Trying not to lose my mind
For to seize this moment
I must swallow my own pride
To be brave in defending
To be bold on my own
I take comfort in the knowledge
That I am alone
I broke the cardinal rule
And I embarrassed little you
No need to ever find a reason
To confess a higher treason
Now have I gone too far?
Not every son can be a star
I may be broken before long
But I'll be looking strong
Fighting fire with my fist
Trying not to lose my mind
For to seize this moment
I must swallow my own pride
To be brave in defending
To be bold on my own
I take comfort in the knowledge
That I am alone

We hold onto the glory in a fumbling embrace
This paranoia still creeping into place
No great illusion; your choices made aren't real
Raise your voices to shatter the ideal
Our eyes fall blind
A light that we leave behind
All truth that we trust
Returns to dust
You're well-worn with pride
As done as the deal
For neon towers of steel
Committed to submission
Collude to corrode
Every admission compiled into code
That exposes your nerves
Until you feel the pain that you deserve
Tell me what would be
Appropriate pornography
You're as done as the deal
For neon and towers of steel

We're so thirsty for the trap you laid
How long before we've taken the bait
You would sell your graven image to the indigent
To line your pockets with their accolades
But it's only the game I blame
In the act of desperation, we're all the same
Just a vessel for a diffident mood
That never seems to lead where we wanted to go
You elitists
Couldn't make or break it in time
No one gets over now
Until they push that dirty dime
Well so much for your philosophy
How long before we've tasted defeat
Everybody wants to blame it on the Bad Guys
And stay indifferent to suffering
I'm so sorry to see my dreams
In service to the plastic fantasies
And necessity of bowling you over
For the ecstasy of gold
You elitists
Couldn't make or break it in time
No one gets over now
Until they push that dirty dime
I'll be lifted up to such great heights
I'll feel the heat of the sun at night
It's an adventure until I fall
I want everything or nothing at all
You elitists
Couldn't wait to make it a crime
No one gets over now
Until you push that dirty dime

One more open door
Leading to one more vice
You're bleeding freely from behind
Your self-serving sacrifice
Never gonna let you go
Not before it tears you apart
You asked me to be patient
When you knew right from the start
That it cuts right through me,
Your condescending glance
Now I can't stand my morals
Upright to the task
And I must release me from the avarice that I never asked to know
I won't be ruled by vanity, and I hate the status quo
I see right through the fantasy, and I hate this beast inside of me
And I'm left here sinking low
Will I have this nightmare forever?
Your one chance is death by degrees
With hell to pay in time
Unwilling to take much more
Of your insight
I respect your efforts
But I resent your gall
To try to sweeten what tastes so sour
And I must release me from the avarice that I never asked to know
I won't be ruled by vanity, and I hate the status quo
I see right through the fantasy, and I hate this beast inside of me
And I'm left here sinking low
I will leave this nightmare forever
And I must release me from the avarice that I never asked to know
I won't be ruled by vanity,
And I hate the status quo
I see right through the fantasy,
And I hate this beast inside of me
And I'm left here sinking low
I will leave this nightmare forevermore
I will leave this nightmare forever
