"Lethal Killers"

Is it not enough for you
to be alive
Did you have to create god
to survive
This is all we have
and all we have is everywhere
There are so many stars
The church and state are lethal killers

If this is all we have
Life seems so much better
Life seems so much deeper
than before

"Rabble"

You're sitting next to me
The leaves are on the ground
My heart is in your hands
The ticking of the clock
The siren on the street
My heart is in your hands

But all I ever wanted
All I ever really needed
Was just for you to hear me
Just for you to really know me
All I wanted was you to hear me

"The Catalyst"

I am on your side
You light me up inside
You fill my eyes with stars
It doesn't get me very far

Just look around
You don't need no fairy tale
To get you by
Just look around
You don't need no Santa Claus
You don't need to make things up

But if there's something more than this

"Tighter Noose"

Up in smoke
This is a joke
Isn't it
All your fault
You went too far
Call it quits
No one knew
The dare to prove
Came and went
Moving on
Chance is gone
Throw a fit

So it's through
Nothing's left to lose
It's lucky too
Who needs a tighter noose

You're so weak

"Waiting To Panic"

What do I do to get your attention
What do I do to get this through
Not the cool kids clique
Not the cool fake hits
What do I do to break this silence
What do I do to make the noise
You prefer to hear
demand to hear

I'm sitting
I'm standing
I'm thinking
I'm thinking
I'm walking

"Hunting (The Universe Breaks My Heart)"

Ginny I know what love is now
I know what we could be
This time it will be different
This time you'll be happy

Stupid twisted irony
You know what your heart is worth
Cause I'm the one who trampled it
And pushed it in the dirt
In time we'll see what grows

I've been hunting through forests

"Armed To The Teeth"

I am armed to the teeth
You can't hold me down
I've turned seething
into a hobby

Why is god out to get us
Can't we just be friends
I feel a twinge of righteousness
Like a corporate hedonist

Armed to the teeth
I'm ready
Go out and spend
Your money

The thugs are banging

"Sooner Or Later"

Well sooner
or later
It's all coming down
I float
down a river
Above my own town
I will fight fire with fire
I will take an eye for every eye
I've got my finger on the trigger
I've got you in my sight

Well sooner
or later
It's all coming down
And high
above the city

"Sailing Seas"

Damn this destiny
And damn this twist of fate
And damn its 5 A.M.
and I'm still awake
You're haunting me
I know it's hypocrisy
but this is not easy
And this is not what we were supposed to be

So holly
You should know that I'll be
Sailing seas of regret
I can't listen to that CD anymore

"Renegade"

Scattered thoughts and scattering masses
The war has just begun
the bully pulpit never had so much fun

Like a wrecking ball held on a string
I'm a renegade who wants to get stomped
Like a wrecking ball held on a string
I'm a hammerhead who wants to get stopped
who wants to get stomped on

All I see are daisies for miles and miles

"Maybe Then Someday"

What's this thing that's haunting me
Won't my mind just let me be
With you I have to be so sober

Have our plans washed out to sea
Did we drown too easily
It's not sinking in that its over

Maybe then someday
Maybe then someday
Maybe then someday
Maybe then
Maybe then we'll make it right

"Goodbye Song"

Come on
I'm not washed up
And you're not back luck
For anyone

Come on
Things got dark
But now our story's just begun

If I was all that I could be
Would you then love me
Despite the history
Stupid things, I know the shame

If this is the end of us
I'll sing you this goodbye song

"Lucky"

It's not me
Find someone who loves you
And if not me
Find someone who knows who you are
They're just memories
They can get so mean
Little sacred things
Floating out to sea

I once knew a girl
She once knew me
We had our own world
My life was free

I loved someone
I set them free

"The Remedy"

I could use
A shot
Your novacaine
My soul's a fuse
Blows away your name

Then you can be the remedy
And I can be the enemy
And he can go and live as nothing
They you can be the wanna be
And I can be the remedy
And he can go to hell for all I care

Say this world is not so shallow

"Mercy Kiss"

I'm outta sight around the moon
But I'll be back in time for you
I know it's strange but are you big enough?

Ok, you know this isn't right
I'm the bark that's to your bite
But I can't wait till you see the light

So I, I do it all for you
But I'm not asking for

You lead me on
I don't need your mercy kiss

"Start Over"

What a mess our lives turned out to be
It was at its best when you and I were only 3
We can start with all the things that turn us out
And we can go right down the list and throw them out

Can we start over?
It's over

Here you are and there's where you wanna be
But don't think you don't have company

"Monster"

Everyone's a genius
Brushing up on irony
But no, no one's free

Everyone's a salesman
Gushing with sincerity
Or so, so it seems

I wanna go another round
I wanna blow the monster down
I wanna go another round
Cos I am coming up
I am coming back

Everyone's a rockstar
Look how cool and dark you are

"Blood"

I see the happy the family tree
It sways so easily
We're smiling all the time
This world just isn't mine

We watch it burn
And we never learn
This can't be what you're waiting for
Staring into the sun
We eat our young
This can't be what you're waiting for

Just take it easy on yourself
Forget all the stupid things we say

"Suburban Muse"

Blue sky us holding down
There's no why
Only the sound of happy TV land
Cue the canned applause

Sidewalk fall through the cracks to China
Never get back
I'm nothing in these blues and laceless Velcro shoes

There used to be a reason why
We wrote the words across the sky
You and I will never die without a fight

"Sunny Day"

Hiding inside a crowd
My head is inside a cloud
Go where the music's loud
And all these talking heads are
Blurred in violet hues

Another Sunny Day

She doesn't know wrong from right
She doesn't know when to fight
She only knows that tonight there's always someone out there
She'll never be alone
