Cold as I am, I'm just doin' my best The best that I can, I'm just needing some rest The rest that I know, I've needed much too much Can you help me Pulling me down Save my soul Pulling me down It drags me down I can't take this hurt Oh and I'm so tired Oh and I'm so tired Suffered this far, might as well just suffer some more The more that I take, you know the further I'll fall Eyes to the sky, I've got my eyes to the sky One last day, so I can end with the night Can you help me Pulling me down Save my soul Pulling me down (down, down) It's draggin' me down (down, down) I can't take this hurt Oh and I'm so tired Oh and I'm so tired Oh and I'm so tired, one of these days Oh and I'm so tired, sleep this away One of these days, sleep this away One of these days, sleep this away I'll sleep, I'll (sleep this away) [x2]

The system is fucked, things aren't fine Out of control, the world's lost it's mind I know this sounds like some trash from the right My compassion was stolen, smoked in a pipe Deception and fraud, too many acts to mention Pushed to the end this is my declaration Lost, lost, lost, I lost my faith Lost, lost, trust no one Learned from mistakes, the lesson was hard Forecast misfortune, live on your guard I'm not as negative as all this sounds I just feel like humanity has let me down Deception and fraud, too many acts to mention Pushed to the end this is my declaration Lost, lost, lost, I lost my faith Lost, lost, lost, I lost my faith in the world Rob me at gun point with crowbars and knives Smash what you want, take what you like Lost, lost, lost, I lost my faith Lost, lost, lost, I lost my faith in the world Rob me at gun point with crowbars and knives I don't care anymore, been robbed my whole life

Dead Wrong 02:40 video
lyrics

Questioned, until I found what's mine Only given so many options, promised to work out fine Brought up, taught what to say We're all raised in tradition, waking up everyday There came a chance that I took and ran Questioned my conscience, stopped going along There came a point where it all made sense If what you have is right then I'll die being wrong [Chorus:] Dead wrong, dead wrong If what you have is right then I'll die being wrong Dead wrong, dead wrong Wrong for the rest of my life Hatred, in everything you've got When it all came crashing down, realized you got caught There came a chance that I took and ran Questioned contention, stopped moving along There came a point where it all made sense If what you have is right then I'll die being wrong [Chorus x2] I was told it would work Taught to accept I was told it would work Taught to hold my breath Own your future, your own misery's your own design Own your future, your own happiness is yours to decide Own your future [x2] Live dead wrong [Chorus x2]

Calculations, unsolved I'll sort it out at the end Apprehensions, dissolved Just dive right in Let it out, what's the worst that could happen Let it out, it either works or it don't Let it out, there's no telling the best time Cause time is just the ticking of a clock, man [Chorus:] I'd rather get burned (I'd rather get burned) I'd rather get burned than never have tried I'd rather get burned (I'd rather get burned) I'd rather get burned than never have tried Calculations, uninvolved This is a current affair Apprehensions, not at all We ain't racing to anywhere Let it out, what's the worst that could happen Let it out, it either works or it don't Let it out, just enjoy the ride Cause it's not the destination it's the trip, man [Chorus (x2):] I'd rather get, I'd rather get, I'd rather get burned than never have tried Doomed to fail, I will always be [x2] Doomed to fail if I don't even try [Chorus:] I'd rather get, I'd rather get, I'd rather get burned than never have tried

Some people call me a nihilist Say I don't believe in a thing I know that can't be true Cause baby I believe in you (oh yeah) Cold, dark eyes, the deeper they stare Underrate me, I don't even care Pass your judgement or leave me alone, just hurry up and decide I'm done caring what anyone thinks, I'll just carry on living my life These misconceptions, you've got so wrong, these misconceptions In this life, I want nothing, expect nothing, never let down In this life, I want nothing, but the truth, I know I've found Cold, dark eyes, why do they care?

Hold me closer If you'd kill for me I'd die for you Ask me now, I'd say "I do" If you'd kill for me I'd die for you I've never seen these things so clear Stared in the face of the things I fear Petrified, I lost my breath (I'm scared, I'm scared) Stuck on the thought of having nothing left (I'm scared, I'm scared) I've never seen these things so clear These words I speak I'm being so sincere Electrified straight from the heart (I'm scared, I'm scared) Caught on the brink of being torn apart (I'm scared, I'm scared) All the facts that I've been shown I'm scared to death of dying alone Hold me closer than I've ever known I'm scared to death of dying alone [Chorus] I wanna kill everything I fear I wanna kill everything I fear I wanna kill everything I fear I'm scared, I'm scared I wanna kill everything I fear I'm scared, I'm scared I wanna kill everything I fear I'm scared, I'm scared I wanna kill off all my fear (I'm scared, I'm scared) All the facts that I've been shown I'm scared to death of dying alone Every chance that I've been thrown I'm scared to death of dying alone Everyone's screaming, everyone's crying If I didn't feel it you know I'm lying So hold me closer than I've ever known I'm scared to death of dying alone

Darkness lives, in the heart of me Deep inside us all, darkness lives The thrill to kill like a love song The lust in us to destroy To strike the life from another Rise above, never let this take you Don't you fear this, hate's not breaking free Don't you fear my, rage won't anchor me [Chorus] Want to crush every part of you Broken bones and all I'd love to watch you suffer Rise above, never let this take you Don't you fear this, hate's not breaking free Don't you fear my, rage won't anchor me Strength is clear, from this darkness we all fear Own the hatred at the deepest of your core There's no escape from this anger From what we all have inside It's in us all, in us all, it's in us all Never let this take you Don't you fear this, hate's not breaking free Don't you fear my, rage won't anchor me

The real you is wasted, your actions in vain You beat down your passions for financial gain You're missing the point, you've forgotten your name Don't make excuses, don't give me reasons No explanations, no one cares You're oh so convincing, you lie to yourself Caught in the thinking of everyone else All for the gamble of wealth Compromise, compromise yourself Compromise, compromise you'll sell your soul On the outside you're fine, you're owning your role Manufacturing smiles is just getting so old How long can you last 'til this all takes its toll Don't make excuses, don't give me reasons No explanations, no one cares You've come now so far, the way that you act You know in your heart what you wish could take back But you've drifted so far from the tracks Compromise, compromise yourself Compromise, compromise you'll sell your soul You're gonna sell your soul [repeat 4x] Your reasons, deceiving Your actions, misleading You've got your price, forgot your past Now that you're here there's no turning back

So sick of this culture Sick and tired of the tired and weak Nothing new on the market So sick of the words you speak I'm such a skeptic, so cold, when did I get so faded? Undecided, unsold, when did I get so bored? Half hearted, fake gold, I'll give this body, this soul Half hearted, fake gold, I'll bleed, 'til this blood runs cold So sick of these vandals All this destruction just looks the same I thought that noise was danger Now you're out just pushin' brand names Am I an asshole? Or just old? When did I get so jaded? Undecided, unsold, When did I get so bored? Half hearted, fake gold, I'll give this body, this soul Half hearted, fake gold, I'll bleed, 'til this blood runs cold I'm so sick and tired, I'm so sick and tired of all this Overrated [x2] I'm so sick and tired of all this Overrated [x2] I'm so sick and tired of all this shit

Longest distance, length of time Never said that this was easy Commonsense, left behind Got myself to drive This distance is killing me Dropped line and I'm losing my mind Everything's perfect, everything's fine Why can't I shake this feeling? Alive in the daylight, alone in the dark We'll always only ever be an ocean apart Too many hours, too many miles I swear to you I'll count the days Drifting further, further away So many things, wish I could say This distance is killing me Piece of static just saved my life One last night, just one last time Hope I can keep this going Alive in the daylight, alone in the dark We'll always only ever be an ocean apart [Chorus:] Lost connection, oh, lost connection Under the darkest skies, I swear I hate goodbyes Lost connection, oh, lost connection No matter how I try, I swear I hate goodbyes Left and leaving, left behind Do my best to keep this working Tired of waking, waking up tired Dead brain, driving me insane This distance is killing me Despise, I curse every sunrise Out of reach, just out of touch Only thing I know for certain Alive in the daylight, alone in the dark We'll always only ever be an ocean apart [Chorus] I hate this ocean I hate these skies Oh my darling I just hate goodbyes

Set straight from the first time Taught from the start, right from wrong Led by example, shown to be strong On how to act and to carry on My mother raised me, to be a gentle man And I know I am my father's son [Chorus:] I'll always be keeping my, head up high I'll always be keeping on, on and on I'll always be keeping my, head up high I'll always be keeping on, on and on Hard work was the best of traits And to lend a hand, whenever you can If it was never broken, no need to fix If it needed mending, learn to stitch My mother raised me, a resourceful man And I know I am my father's son I'll always be keeping my, head up high I'll always be keeping on, on and on I'll always be keeping my, head up high I'll always be keeping on Without a foundation and sights set so clear I would fail I know that I could not have made it to here I would fail All that you gave me came straight from the heart I would fail Without all the love that you gave from the start I would fail [Chorus] Set straight from the first time It's a credit to you I never went astray Last time I checked, I was doing fine Last time I checked I hadn't lost my mind My mother raised me, as best as she could I know I am my father's son

[Beastie Boys cover] Can't stand it, I know you planned it I'm gonna set it straight, this watergate Can't stand rockin' when I'm on thin air Cause your crystal ball ain't so crystal clear So while you sit back and wonder why I got this fuckin' thorn in my side Oh my god, it's a mirage I'm tellin' y'all it's sabotage So, so, so So listen up cause you can't say nothin' You'll shut me down with a push of your button But yo, I'm out and I'm gone I'll tell you now I keep it on and on Cause what you see you might not get And you can bet, so don't you get souped yet You're scheming on a thing that's a mirage I'll tell you now it's sabotage Why Listen all of y'all it's a sabotage Listen all of y'all it's a sabotage Listen all of y'all it's a sabotage Listen all of y'all it's a sabotage Can't stand it, I know you planned it I'm gonna set it straight, this watergate Can't stand rockin' when I'm in this place Cause it's all a disgrace, cause you're all in my face Make no mistake when I change up the channel I'm bloody rich when I fly off the handle What could it be? It's a mirage You're scheming on a thing that's sabotage
