Lyrics

1.
Not Going Away
Don't tell me I'm wrong
Don't tell me that you knew all along
I won't roll over dead
Only I know what goes on in my head

I've got nothing to hide
I'm not guilty inside
I won't give up
After all I'm still crazy

I'm not going away
I'm not going
Try so hard to break me
But all your diamonds turn to sand
I'm not going away
I'm not going
Say goodbye forever
I'll wait for you in no man's land

Get out of my way
There's nothing you can do to change what I say
I won't ever let go
I got the answer but you'll never know

I got my eyes open wide
Ain't gonna' slip up or slide
Can't take me down
After all I'm still crazy

I'm not going away
I'm not going
Try so hard to break me
But all your diamonds turn to sand
I'm not going away
I'm not going
Say goodbye forever
I'll wait for you in no man's land

I'm not going away
I'm not going away
I'm not going away
I'm not going
Say goodbye forever
I'll wait for you in no man's land

I Don't Wanna Stop
I don't know what they're talking about
I'm making my own decision
This thing that I found ain't gonna bring me down
I'm like a junkie without an addiction

Mama don't cry I just wanna stay high
I like playing with danger and fear
Everybody's walkin' but nobody's talkin'
It looks a lot better from here

All my life I've been over the top
I don't know what I'm doing
All I know is I don't wanna stop
All fired up, I'm gonna go till I drop
You're either in or in the way
Don't make me, I don't wanna stop

Why don't they ever listen to me?
Is this the one way conversation?
Nothing they say is gonna set me free
Don't need no mental masturbation

Too many religions for only one god
I don't need another saviour
Don't try to change my mind
You know I'm one of a kind
Ain't gonna change my bad behaviour

All my life I've been over the top
I don't know what I'm doing
All I know is I don't wanna stop
All fired up, I'm gonna go till I drop
You're either in or in the way
Don't make me, I don't wanna stop

I don't wanna stop
Are you ever going to stop?
I don't wanna stop, I don't wanna stop
I don't wanna stop, I don't wanna stop
Are you ever going to stop?
I don't wanna stop

All my life I've been over the top
I don't know what I'm doing
All I know is I don't wanna stop
All fired up, I'm gonna go till I drop
You're either in or in the way
Don't make me, I don't wanna stop

Black Rain
The black rain is falling
Contaminating the ground
The human race is dying
The dead are scattered around

What is the price of a bullet?
Another hole in the head
A flag draped over a coffin
Another soldier is dead

How many victims have fallen?
How many more have to die?
People dying in masses
Angel of death standing by

We've got our marching orders
Defenders of our home and our pride
We've crossed too many borders
Military suicide

War killing sons and daughters
Another failed attack
There is no turning back
Blood running down like water
You'll think you got away
Until the judgement day comes

Politicians confuse me
I watch the body count rise
Why are the children all marching
Into the desert to die?

The human psyche is twisted
The madness rising again
Another empire falling
I watch them dying in vain

We've got our marching orders
Defenders of our home and our pride
We've crossed too many borders
Military suicide

War killing sons and daughters
Another failed attack
There is no turning back
Blood running down like water
You'll think you got away
Until the judgement day comes

Are you ready?
Black rain, black rain
Black rain, black rain

War killing sons and daughters
Another failed attack
There is no turning back
Blood running down like water
You'll think you got away
Until the judgement day
You'll think you got away
Until your judgement day comes

Lay Your World on Me
I know you think you're all alone
I haven't been there when you've needed me
I didn't deserve the love you gave
But now I'm telling you I'm here if you need a friend

Give me your pain
Give me you anger
Let me be your rock
I can be the pillar of strength that you need
I'll help you keep it all together
It's better late than never
Lay your world on me
I can take the weight

Don't let it twist you up inside
Time never fails to make the heartache stop
You've got to let those feelings go
I'll give you everything I can if you say the word

Give me your pain
Give me you anger
Let me be your rock
I can be the pillar of strength that you need
I'll help you keep it all together
It's better late than never
Lay your world on me
I can take the weight

We all laugh and we all cry
We all hurt the same inside
We all fall down and we lose faith in who we really are
But if we can bend instead of break
The choice for us is to make it together
Lay your world on me

I'll help you keep it all together
It's better late than never
Lay your world on me
Lay your world on me
Lay your world on me
I can take the weight
5.
The Almighty Dollar
It's in the life that we lead
Set up for money and greed
A little isn't enough, we have to use it all up
Success - Excess, the truth is inconvenient

Oh hang your head
Pillaged and left us for dead
You kept us blind and mislead
How could you think nothing's wrong
You won't be smiling for long
When it's
All gone
Gone
We can never go back

Burn into the air and atmosphere
Watching the rain come down
Turn your head away ignore the fear
Watching the ice crash down

Our father's justice gets closer
How could you screw us all over
Rape, steal and murder
God bless the almighty dollar
The almighty dollar

Poison the air that we breathe
Chained to industrial need
Destroy the souls that you steal - the radiation is real
Debate - Too late

You've built our funeral pyre
You kill my faith
Mother earth, desecrate
Deceive the whole human race
I know you think nothing's wrong
We won't be breathing for long
When it's
All gone
Gone
We can never go back

Burn into the air and atmosphere
Watching the rain come down
Turn your head away ignore the fear
Watching the ice crash down

Our father's justice gets closer
How could you fuck us all over
Rape, steal and murder
God bless the almighty dollar
Death, doom and disaster
The point of no return
No earthly life ever after
Is it too late to learn?
Burn into the air and atmosphere
Watching the rain come
Our father's justice gets closer
How could you fuck us all over
Rape, steal and murder
God bless the almighty dollar
the almighty dollar

11 Silver
Your words, they go right through me
They circle round my head - yeah
I can't believe I'm still here
I know I should be dead - yeah
This desperation makes me feel so filthy
But I know if I don't stop I won't feel guilty
Take me higher
Crank me faster
Help me get
The thrill I'm after

One time to take away all pain
One more to turn myself insane
One shot to keep me high all day
makes my reality fade away

There is no future waiting
There is no morning after
Can't stop obsessive craving
An itch I just can't scratch - yeah
This paranoia stops my mind from sleeping
I don't know if I'm awake or if I'm dreaming
Take me in
You won't deny me
Spit me out
All bright and shiny

One time to take away all pain
One more to turn myself insane
One shot to keep me high all day
makes my reality fade away

One time to take away all pain
One more to turn myself insane
One shot to keep me high all day
makes my reality fade away
7.
Civilize the Universe
Bombs exploding, and tears are flowing
Chasing rockets and gasping for air
You can call it justice or retribution
Yet the reasons are never clear
Freedom is just man's invention,
and a soldier is just a slave
Self inflicted, so addicted,
Bad habits are hard to break

I'm alive
Watching better turn to worse
One more time
Try to civilize the universe

Without the righteous, without the faithful
We would never accept the obscene
A false confession, a priest's obsession
Gives the demon a light to be seen
Burn the witch and hang deserters

I'm alive
Watching better turn to worse
One more time
Try to civilize the universe

There's only one choice to be made
We're thought restricted, and herd afflicted
The truth is so hard to take
The righteous and the faithful
Give the deaf man to the blind
the world full of confusion
From a disease of the mind

I'm alive
Watching better turn to worse
One more time
Try to civilize the universe
8.
Here for You
I remember all the good times
Sometimes I'd wonder would it last
I used to dream about the future
but now the future is the past

I don't wanna live in yesterday
Cross my heart until I die
Don't wanna know just what tomorrow may bring because
today has just begun
No matter whatever else I've ever done
I'm here for you
I'm here for you

So now I sit here and I wonder
What ever happened to my friends?
Too many bought a one way ticket
But I'll be with you 'till the end

I don't wanna live in yesterday
Cross my heart until I die
Don't wanna know just what tomorrow may bring
because today has just begun
No matter whatever else I've ever done
I'm here for you
You're my religion

You're my reason to live
You are the heaven in my hell

We've been together for a long long time
and I just can't live without you

No matter what you do
I'm here for you

I don't wanna live in yesterday
Cross my heart until I die
Don't wanna know just what tomorrow may bring
because today has just begun
No matter whatever else I've ever done
I'm here for you
I'm here for you

Countdown's Begun
Watching blood stained windows
He must just love the pain
See the children crying
His mother's died again
Dig her grave much deeper
The fatal price she paid
I hope I'm there to hold her
When she comes back again
I see the death and the disaster
There is no happy ever after
The time has come
Countdown's begun

Countdown's begun

Is the Armageddon finally here at last?
You may see the mushroom but you won't hear the blast
Don't need a self made prophet
Don't need a holy war
Don't need another leader
To even up the score
I'm cursed with living on a fault line
The doomsday clock was made by mankind
No place to run
Countdown's Begun

Countdown's begun
Countdown's begun
I see the death and the disaster
There is no happy ever after
The time has come
Countdown's begun
10.
Trap Door
Can you see your reflection
False strength and hollow protection
Run from pain and rejection
the truth stabs again
till the skin is broken
and the cut is open
and the words once spoken
just fade away

Too late, standing on the trap door
Too late, standing on the trap door

Big head leads to confusion
Strong heart pumps up delusion
Tough talk, one voice communion

Medicate the pain
Justify your ego
Living with denial
and the thoughts so vile
Won't fade away

Too late, standing on the trap door
Too late, standing on the trap door

It's coming
You're falling
You're on your own
with no one left to blame
Can't sleep? Cause you've made your own bed
The sentence of the helpless
Sink deep to the trial in your head
The court of the selfish
Why? Tell me why? Can't evade or escape the reality
A true lie and a broken promise
A Judas and a doubting Thomas
A tragedy just to keep you honest
Guilty always fall through the trap door
Fear the trap door
Though the trap door
The trap door
The trap door
No fear, too scared to look up
Can't win, nothing but bad luck
Clock ticks, your time to face up
You can't run for long
When your world is broken
Your trap door is open
The very words you choke on
Just fade away

Too late standing on the trap door
Too late standing on the trap door
