It All Began in the Dark
03:40

Electric light like fireworks show
It all began in the dark
The smoking man caused the spark
(Yeah you know he likes it!)
The spooky tale told fireside
It makes the kids' skin crawl
But I don't feel that at all-
In fact it's turning me on!
I want to be there when the whole thing blows
And see the mushroom grow
We'll hack and cough a beat through smoke
So armageddon dope.
They say the loosest lips will always sink ships
But then right after they're kissed
They disappear into mist
(Oh like it's magic!)
The grandpa pa was powerless
Weakness pecked him like a crow
Until he couldn't say no
He became nothing then....now!
I want to be there when the whole thing blows
And see the mushroom grow
We'll hack and cough a beat through smoke
So armageddon dope.
I wanna be there when the flash arrives
And watch bad habits die
Burning my shadow in the concrete drive,
I'll see armageddon live
See armageddon live

You said it won't make any difference at all
You said it won't make any difference at all
So I say by my love
If this all means little more to you
I thought it might be enough
That I fought until my face was blue
Or maybe I'm a coward
And maybe I'm a monster in your heart
Cause if I have devoured
The flower that kept us from being apart
You said it won't make any difference at all
You said it won't make any difference at all
So if this must be the end
Will I look back to someday see
The wind made the branches bend
And then all the rest was history
Or maybe I should turn around
And maybe I should beg for forgiveness from you
And if the lost could be found
I'd part these clouds revealing a sky of blue
You said it won't make any difference at all
You said it won't make any difference at all
Something took me over
I couldn't tell my name
And when something takes you over
It's gone....
elle va déchirer votre coeur putain et il crache au visage, puis vous vous rendrez compte que tout cela était une énorme erreur
(translation: she will rip your fucking heart out and spit it in your face and then you will realize that it was all a huge mistake)
You said it won't make any difference at all
You said it won't make any difference at all
You said it won't make any difference at all
You said it won't make any difference at all

As you rush up to the front gate
Your greatest fear is you are late
You get in line at the front end
Thank God they haven't let them in
You're whispering to your best friend
Pass me a cup of the straight gin
A nervous din lifts from the crowd
"They must've finished the sound check now!"
Attendants start checking wristbands
(This is the wait that you can't stand)
Push to the front of the line
Save time as the alkaline
In your stomach burns as the first chords churn
This is happening NOW!!!
Just keep on making their heads bob
You part the crowd like the Red Sea
Your only goal is the front seats
Feeling their fists on the surface
Deep down inside you deserve this
Hands grip the stage as your swaying
Now know what the singer's saying
Steam rises up from the mosh pit
Weaving in time to the snare hits
Time seems to stop in the moment
The band the clockwork component
The only ones that can save my soul
With this rock n' roll
We are all the same this is not a game anymore...
We are not alone.
Just keep on making their heads bob.

So what's the story now?
You left them no doubt
You finally made it out
They hunt your head with no sympathy
Your chord rings out like a symphony
Oh yea!
The paper's headline read clearly:
"Once Fallen-Doomed- Now Brings Us To Our Knees"
And that-
Truly makes me pleased.
So get revenge for us all!
You must know where to go tonight
I just know you will make things right
And it's always been this way
Crush the indignant foes
Bring new highs to these lows
Your secret identity will be secure with me.
Such a saint
Taking wrong- wringing it out
Then settle up
Satire!
Everyday you risk your life for those unknown
Always searching for the just from judge's throne
As the bad
Shake from their knees
They know-
And that makes me pleased.
So get revenge for us all!
You must know where to go tonight
I just know you will make things right
And it's always been this way
Crush the indignant foes
Bring new highs to these lows
Your secret identity will be secure with me.
They tried to disarm and hide me
Not even invite me
Then Karma arrived
And wasn't likely
To derive these things all lightly
All agitation from my patience
I had to take in
Cause the wait
Turned from days into weeks and increased into months
I got not a thing to ensconce
If i was to be humpy dumpty
I won't be too stiff to get stunned in the run
If my destined destination was a cliff cause I won't rupture under these scums
Impairing all these barricades and parapets
Getting to a point I never dreamt to ever ever get
Turn the reprimand into remembrance
Let my raps be my advocate
So they won't forget but regret
How hard they made it hard to get by and off a surface
Full of denial buying bias but their purge has been purchased
Even if it wasn't on purpose
The timing was still perfect
And I do refuel
Obtuse to reviews
What you hear in your ear coming through
Is my detailed view on my rear view
Death is the cousin of sleep
Reason why they're feeling bleak
Falling oblique as theta waves taking their fatigue
Hitting the sea knee deep
Oblivious to the fact that it wasn't their niche
Messing with me and my dreams
So get revenge for us all!
You must know where to go tonight
I just know you will make things right
And it's always been this way
Crush the indignant foes
Bring new highs to these lows
Your secret identity will be secure with me.

In My Way

Bonfire
There's nothing left but the bones
The wind is shifting and burning my nose
I can smell death.
It must be true
It seems I've misplaced my soul
I never thought
They could invade it
They're all in my way.
Live wire
The gurney jumps and he moans
He's old and grumpy on methadone
He stares through me
"You're just like me
It seems you've misplaced your soul
It's all that you've got-
Rebuild you cannot."
They're all in my way.
Even though my luck is completely gone
I'm sending all these suckers to Babylon
Drop change in their pockets and move 'em on.
They're all in my way.
( I push through bodies so I can go home.
I wish the zombies would just leave me alone.)
Just leave me alone.
