Justified Black Eye :
she was confused and abused in this life
emotional and violent moments seemed to take the longest time
every single night i tried to find the other half
apologies and dignity denied

he starts to laugh
he starts to lie with suddenly psychotic eyes.
every night she cried herself to sleep
she didn't recognize her own face in the mirror all
black & blue,
so afraid intimidation like a child she hides away
he would always try to justify what wasn't true

justified black eye

taken for granted she sleeps by the phone
waiting for a call from him
but it seems he's never coming home,
14 beers later he is there without an answer
once again she questions his lies she goes to bed with no reply
tomorrow morning different story and he'll be a different guy,
he'll justify her black eye with another lie.

she packs her bags in great temptation
he's on his knees again he cries a hug & a kiss and I don't know why
as a tear drops from her swollen eye
apologies until tonight and another justified black eye



Couch Boy :

(T. Sly/C. Shiflett/M. Riddle/R. Koff)
Don't take it so hard, we're not
against you
it's really not that bad, it's just that they
want you to think that it is
I'm over the past but I can't defend you
so I'll say it one last time before I leave
that life behind
It's easy to abuse the friends that end up
screwed
just take one for the team, I hope
you're happy
It's hard to believe that once there
was something
there's something to be said for sinking
the ship that I wanted to sail
you don't have a clue, you never can
and never will
but I'll suck it up and lie, with all my
dignity and pride
These words can't say it all, you're
feeling ten feet tall
and stronger everyday, I've learned to
walk away
So easy to confuse another lie that's true
you'll find out for yourself, I hope
you're happy


Soulmate :
Monday morning you woke up crying
The outcome of a stupid line
Said by some punk asshole on the street
It wasn't me, it wasn't you
It wasn't anybody you knew is it
Your old friend insecurity?

The one companion that stuck by your side
Since you were born

Tuesday night you were in a fight
The same old argument black and white
It's something that's eating your inside
It's not the food, it's not the booze
It isn't anything consumed so is it
Becoming a problem you can't hide?

And all those times you thought that you were wrong
But you were right

The devil on your shoulder gives you
Strength in paranoia
The countless times you call a few
Your best friend till the end of time
They'll always be there by your side
Solidify conditions you've abused
What that means you'll never have a clue

More than just a life long friend
no social life I guess we can pretend
It's not like I care but anyway
You always wanna leave you never wanna stay
Cause you think if you drink too much
Then you will lose it
You'll drink your security away

The one companion that stuck by your side
Since you were born

The little voice inside your head
Annoying and confusing
That somehow tells you what to do
Socially you've lost your mind
And basically you're out of time
You try to build so much it breaks on you
What that means you'll never have a clue



51 Days :
Where do you go, my lovely
Where do you go
I wanna know, my lovely, I wanna know
Where do you go, oh oh eh oh
I wanna know, oh oh eh oh
Where do you go, oh oh oh
oh oh oh eh oh...
I wanna know
Where do you, where do you go
Where do you, where do you go
You leave without a word, no message, no number
And now my head is pounding like rolling thunder
You left me with a heartache deep inside
Girl you should see me cry all night, and I wonder
Everybody says, what a shame, what is wrong
They don't like the game you play
Heard you're hanging round every night until dawn
I'm waiting for you night and day
Where do you go, my lovely
Where do you go
I wanna know, my lovely, I wanna know
Where do you go, oh oh eh oh

Where do you, where do you go
Where do you, where do you go
Save me, come back and save me
You gotta break the silence, don't keep me waiting
Just like a river flowing to the sea
You're running back to me
Come hear what I'm saying
Everybody says what a shame
What is wrong
They don't like the games you play
Heard your hangin' round everynight until dawn
I'm waiting for you night and day
Where do you go, My Lovely
Where do you go
I wanna know, my lovely
I wanna know, where do you go
My lovely, I wanna know
Where do you go, oh oh oh

Come back and dry the tears, I cried for you baby
You've gotta stop this heartache deep inside
You've gotta help me make it through the night safely
Come back and save me
Where do you go, my lovely

Leave It Behind :
When we came here it was done
I felt completely useless
Never learned to quite adjust
And all along they knew this
Carousel would someday stop
And throw us off in anger
I guess I didn't think I 'd ever see this sitcom dramedy
They wrote the script for us already
It's not the time that makes us guilty
It's all done, the hatreds built, the walls divide
And when I die I'll leave you with these
Animals that think the future's in their minds
It's in their minds but they're so blind
And so I leave it behind, ecological man-made crime
And so I leave you behind
To these miraculous, intelligent, incredible, extraordinary minds
Junk mail stacked into the sky
Recycled paper and plastic
Then we said that we would try, decreasing figures were drastic
But I guess it did no good, nobody cares about it
Not much emotion in my neighborhood
My apartment's made of wood
I haven't given more than I could
It's not the time that makes us guilty
It's the ones before the ones that lit the fuse
Cancer causing, smog injecting in the vein
That makes the world go 'round so fast
And you won't last, it's in the past
So I leave it behind, ecological man-made crime
So I leave you behind
To these miraculous, intelligent, incredible, extraordinary minds

Redemption Song :
Oh pirates, yes, they rob I;
Sold I to the merchant ships,
Minutes after they took I
From the bottomless pit.
But my hand was made strong
By the hand of the Almighty.
We move forward in this generation
Triumphantly.

Won't you help me sing
these songs of freedom
'Cause all I ever had:
Redemption songs
Redemption songs

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery;
None but ourselves can free our minds.
Have no fear for atomic energy,
'Cause none of ud can stop the time
How long shall they kill our prophets,
While we stand aside and look
Some say it's just a part of it:
We've got to fulfill the book.

Won't you help me sing
these songs of freedom
'Cause all I ever had:
Redemption songs
Redemption songs
Redemption songs

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery;
None but ourselves can free our mind.
Have no fear for atomic energy,
'Cause none of themcan stop the time
How long shall they kill our prophets,
While we stand aside and look?
Yes, some say it's just a part of it:
We've got to fulfil the book.

Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom?
'Cause all I ever had:
Redemption songs -
All I ever had:
Redemption songs:
These songs of freedom,
Songs of freedom.


Straight From the Jacket:

Monday morning you woke up crying
The outcome of a stupid line, oh-oh
Said by some asshole on the street
It wasn't me, it wasn't you
It wasn't anybody you knew, is it
Your old friend insecurity?
The one companion that stuck by your side since you were born
Tuesday night you were in a fight

Becoming a problem you can't hide
So every time yo uthought that you were wrong you were right
The devil on your shoulder gives you strength in paranoia

Fields of Agony :
IHow many people, how many have died?
I'm feeling lucky and afraid at the same time
How many times have you sat home and wondered why?
We always hear about the U.S.A. but not the other side
In fields of agony everybody dies
How many humans, how many does it take?
We get a cedar box they get a body rake
How many lives does it take before we can end this war?
Bring Johnny home soon he forgot what the fuck they
were fighting for...In fields of agony
I don't want to die or be sent home on a cargo plane
A tag on my toe without my name because I'm one of a million
A million
How many weapons, how many do we need?
What about the economy, what about the economy?
You'll be the hero at the end of your catastrophe
It can't be stopped with unity with collaboration of
you and me...and human dignity...in fields of agony...



Fatal Flu :
It taught you a lesson, how to be afraid
And how to understand your life is not a game
It's more than a lesson now you can learn no more from love
Even with that wisdom in your mind there's still that
poison in your blood
You wouldn't touch the breakfast that I made for you
How could you lie?
Losing weight, you look afraid, you're scaring me
I wonder why?
Victim of environment I cannot stand aside and watch you die
Everyday you went to school trying to maintain your cool
With people sitting far away from you
No lesson learned here prejudice prevails
You're an outcast to the ignorance of other people's mental
Jails...Soon you'll be free you can live again my friend
Darkness is better than this live you live
Sympathy I give to you that is all that I can do
I'm sorry that you're stuck here with this fatal flu
There's not much I can do
They taught you a lesson how to stay away
Victim of your solitude one out of ten
And one was you victim of society's
Incurable disease, the fatal flu


Wood :
maybe you dont understand it, what keeps them awake at night.what goes through their little minds when you turn off the light.always having to say sorrytears are stained on the pillowlike the light of the moonthey cant be woncant exist without the sunlets think clearly for a while.can he shine without a smile?why am i alone with no one to be foundlooks like they know whats best for me.why doesnt anybody like me?i dont understand.guess ill have to crawl inside,and i dont know whyim sitting by myself when the problem isnt minebeen around the block a few times,been beat up by all his friends.learning life is like a maze that never seems to endlike an open bookblank pages left for only him to writelife is shortthis chapter takes so longcant tell the right from the wrong.its so hard for you to placean expression on his face.why am i alone with no one to be foundlooks like they know whats best for me.why doesnt anybody like me?i dont understand.guess ill have to crawl inside,and i dont know whyim sitting by myself when the problem isnt mine.why am i alone with no one to be foundwhy my friends and family left me?at 6 years he wont be taught a meaning to this mess.he'll just have to take a guess.and we'll never see the child who was forced to be a man

Alone :
(T. Sly/C. Shiflett/M. Riddle/R. Koff)
Lost yourself it didn't take much time, it
wasn't hard to find
now that you've been to the edge, stood
and looked down from the top
and found it wasn't worth the pain, a
selfish way to say
I'm the only one that counts and
happiness is out
Really insecure, disguising what's inside
you're not cool to me
I wont wait in the back of the line
No one knows exactly where you went,
the maoney has been spent
sent the search team, I'm about to
call it off
feel you close when you're so far away
a straw inside your vein
as it sucks the life from you I watch it all
come true
When it happens like a million
times before
I wont close my mind but I refuse to
open the door
Feel the world caving in, you had so
much left to give
is it worth the tide you turned, all the
people that you burned?
So long to your little friend this is how
the story ends
I'm the only one 'cause nobody cared
anyway
Hate yourself just like I thought you
would, it didn't do us good
I'm afraid of being right so before we
say good-bye to you
come down from off your throne and let
the truth be known
we all know you're not insane, it's how
you play this game
Really insecure, disguising what's inside
it's not cool to me when the game is a
fake suicide


Exit:
Sometimes the news bums me out
It doesn't get me off the couch where I belong
I guess as world problems never seem to rest
Am I afraid, God, yes I am
Won't somebody tell me why my TV
Claims we're born to die like this
Communicate, don't seperate
Don't instigate a world of hate
Comtemplate the situation
Negotiate those lazy ways
We've gone to far to slip away
Situation is an open invitation
And all this time we've had to change it
Now it's time to face it
Lazy, I am
Realistically, what can I do
I'll leave it up to the rest of you
Yo uwouldn't like my point of view anyway
How can I stand aside and watch the wear world go by?
It's easy, you see, when you haven't got a window
Just a screen
