Lyrics


1. ISRAEL'S SON

Hate is what I feel for you
And I want you to know that I want you dead
You're late for the execution
If you're not here soon, I'll kill your friend instead

[Chorus]
All the pain I feel
Couldn't start to heal
Although I would like it to

I hate you and your apathy
You can leave, you can leave, I don't want you here
I'm playing this pantomime
But I don't see you showing any signs of fear

[Chorus]

This time I'm for real
My pain can not heal
You will be dead when I'm through

[Chorus]

Pain and execution
Put your hands in the air
Put your hands in the air
The air... yeah

I am, I am Israel's son
Israel's son I am
Put your hands in the air
Put your hands in the air


2. BLIND (LIVE)

I need to get out
There's something wrong round here
I have no doubt
We're all really down from fear
Everything's dark
And I cannot find
What I've been looking for
So I have to say I'm blind
But he cannot see
But he cannot see
Yeah

If you do
Shed a tear
Don't go near my place
Because I I won't be here
There's no love lost between you and me
And that's the way that I like it
I want to live life like a normal man,
And I think I can, yeah,

But he cannot see,
Yeah, he cannot see,
He's blind, oh yeah,
Ooh, fuck, yeah, alright,

I'm blind,
Oh I'm blind,

If you do,
Shed a tear,
Don't go near my place, baby,
Cause I, I won't be here,
There's no love lost between you and me,
And that's the way that I like it,
I want to live life like a normal man,
And I think I am,

But he cannot see,
Yeah, he cannot see,
He's blind, oh yeah,
Oh, fuck, yeah, alright
Yeah, oh, no, yeah,
Fuck, oh, alright.


3. LEAVE ME OUT (LIVE)

Ohh, you can lead a throne
But I'm something you don't own
No...

Greed is a sin
So don't lead me in
Ohh...

Ohh, you can leave me out
Leave me out
Leave me out
Ohh, yeah


4. UNDECIDED (LIVE)

Ohh, there's no time
To choose for yourself
It's like the candle's lit at both ends now
Deteriorating health

Parent's breakin' up
Wish they would decide
Whether to stay together
Can't make up their minds

They wonder why you need someone
You get no freedom at all
They want you to drop down and conform
They make your self-esteem fall

[Chorus]
Undecided, can't make up their mind
Your parents collided and left you behind

If there's a lock to their minds
Can you tell me please
I'll be straight
Straight to get the keys

[Chorus]

Her mother doesn't even know her name...
Undecided
If there is trouble, well she just gets the blame
But denies it

[Chorus]
