Corrosion Of Conformity - King Of The Rotten


If I was the king of all the rotten
stealing filth from those forgetten
would you be my queen of a desperate land?
Do you give a damn?
What if I had to scold you?
listen once tried and true
What if I had to trade you for another man?
Do you think I can?

I won't call on the angels no
beating on the line as I turn to amputate
I'm bleeding on you

What if you were torn in two?
What if I wanted to be like you?
What if I were high, like an aeroplane?
Would you look at me the same?

I won't call on the angels no
beating on the line as I turn to amputate
I'm bleeding on you

If we walked side by side
would you stab my back and kill my pride?
would you fall ahead, or would you move behind?
tell me words unkind?

Now if I was the king of all the rotten
stealing filth from those forgotten
would you be my queen of this desperate land?
Do you think I give a damn?

I won't call on the angels no
beating on the line as I turn to amputate
I'm bleeding on you

 

[TenaciousDave]

I close my eyes to no avail
Three days of aching sleepless
I wish these sheets would suffocate me while I wait
I love the cuts that make the lines
Arranged in beautiful designs
I fight with a sharp side of a razor blade
It's not right I can't escape the choice I made

One last chance to get me through tonight
One last dance with the lady dressed in white
I lost myself I lost my alibis
One last time to feed the enemy inside of me

[h=2]System Of A Down - Sugar[/h]The kombucha mushroom people,
Sitting around all day
Who can believe you
Who can believe you
Let your mother pray (sugar)

Well I'm not there all the time you know
Some people, some people, some people,
Call it insane! Yeah they call it insane! (sugar)
I play Russian roulette everyday, a man's sport,
With a bullet called life. yYeah mama called life,(sugar)
You know that every time I try to go
Where I really want to be,
It's already where I am,
'Cause I'm already there! (sugar)

The kombucha mushroom people,
Sitting around all day
Who can believe you
Who can believe you
Let your mother pray (sugar)

I got a gun the other day from Sako,
It's cute, small, fits right in my pocket
Yeah, right in my pocket (sugar)
My girl, you know, she lashes out at me sometimes,
And I just f*cking kick her
And then ooh Baby! she's O.K. (sugar)
People are always chasing me down,
Trying to push my face to the ground,
Where all they really want to do,
Is suck out my mother fucking brains, my brains! (sugar)

The kombucha mushroom people,
Sitting around all day
Who can believe you
Who can believe you
Let your mother pray

I sit, in my desolate room, no lights, no music,
Just anger! I've killed everyone
Run away forever, but I'm feeling better,
How do I feel, What do I say,
Fuck you, it all goes away!
How do I feel, What do I say?
Fuck you, it all goes away!
How do I feel, What do I say?
In the end it all goes away
How do I feel, What do I say?
In the end it all goes away,
How do I feel, What do I say?
In the end it all goes away,
How do I feel, What do I say?
In the end it all goes away,
How do I feel, What do I say?
In the end it all goes away,
How do I feel, What do I say?
In the end it all goes away
In the end it all goes away
In the end it all goes away
In the end it all goes away
In the end it all goes away!

Dream Theater - Space-Dye Vest

Falling through pages of Martens on angels
Feeling my heart pull west
I saw the future dressed as a stranger
love in a space-dye vest

Love is an act of blood and I'm bleeding
a pool in the shape of a heart
Beauty projection in the reflection
Always the worst way to start

"But he's the sort who can't know
anyone intimately, least of all a woman.
He doesn't know what a woman is.
He wants you for a possession, something to look at
like a painting or an ivory box.
Something to own and to display. He doesn't want
you to be real, or to think or to live.
He doesn't love you, but I love you.
I want you to have your own thoughts and ideas and
feelings, even when I hold you in my arms.
It's our last chance... It's our last chance..."

Now that you're gone I'm trying to take it
Learning to swallow the rage
Found a new girl I think we can make it
as long as she stays on the page

This is not how I want it to end
And I'll never be open again

"...I was gonna move out...ummm...get,
get a job, get my own place, ummm,
but... I go into the mall where I
want to work and they tell me, I'm,
I was too young..."

"Some people, gave advice before,
about facing the facts, about
facing reality. And this is, this
without a doubt, is his biggest
challenge ever. He's going to have to face it.
You're gonna have to try, he's gonna to have to try
and, uh, and, and, and get some help here.
I mean no one can say they know how he feels."

"That, so they say that, in ya know
like, Houston or something, you'd
say it's a hundred and eighty degrees,
but it's a dry heat.
In Houston they say that?
Oh, maybe not. I'm all mixed up.
Dry until they hit the swimming pool."

"...I get up with the sun... Listen.
You have your own room to sleep in,
I don't care what you do. I don't
care when. That door gets locked,
that door gets locked at night by nine o'clock.
If you're not in this house by nine o'clock, then
you'd better find some place to sleep. Because
you're not going to be a bum in this house.
Supper is ready..."

There's no one to take my blame
if they wanted to
There's nothing to keep me sane
and it's all the same to you
There's nowhere to set my aim
so I'm everywhere
Never come near me again
do you really think I need you

I'll never be open again,
I could never be open again.
I'll never be open again,
I could never be open again.

And I'll smile and I'll learn to pretend
And I'll never be open again
And I'll have no more dreams to defend
And I'll never be open again

Dream Theater - Lie

Daybreak
at the bottom of lake
it's a hundred degrees I can't breathe
And I won't get out
'til I figure it out
Though I'm weak like I can't believe
So you tell me 'trust me' l can trust you
Just let me show you
But I gotta work it out in a shadow of doubt
'cause I don't know if I know you

Doing fine but don't waste my time
Tell me what it is you want to say
You sin, you win, just let me in - hurry
I've been out in the rain all day
So you tell me 'trust me' I can trust you
as far as I can throw you
And I'm trying to get out of a shadow of doubt
'cause I don't know if I know you

[Chorus:]
Don't tell me you wanted me
Don't tell me you thought of me
I won't, I swear I won't
(Did)
I'll try, I swear I'll try
(Lie)

Mother Mary quite contrary
Kiss the boys and make them wary
Things are getting just a little bit scary
It's a wonder I can still breathe

Never been much of a doubting Thomas
but nothing breaks like a broken promise
You tell me 'bout your two more coming
but once is just enough for me

[Chorus]

I had gotten used to being a soul destroyed
She comes in apparently to fill the void
All dogs need a leash and
at least I'll forget it
And she would never hurt me though
she's never said it
But I'm not gonna ask her today
I don't wanna scare her away
Your town, I'm all alone
and I just can't stare at the phone
I wanna talk about lifelong mistakes
and you can tell your stepfather I said so

Dream Theater - The Mirror

Temptation-
Why won't you leave me alone?
Lurking Every Corner, everywhere I go

Self Control-
Don't turn your back on me now
When I need you the most

Constant pressure tests my will
My will or my won't
My Self Control escapes from me still...

Hypocrite-
How could you be so cruel
and expect my faith in return?

Resistance-
Is not as hard as it seems
When you close the door

I spent so long trusting in you
I trust you forgot
Just when I thought I believed in you...

"What're you doing?
What're you doing?"

It's time for me to deal
Becoming all too real
living in fear-
Why did you lie and pretend?
This has come to an end
I'll never trust you again
It's time you made your amends
Look in the mirror my friend

"That I haven't behaved as I should"
"Everything you need is around you.
The only danger is inside you."

"I thought you could control life,
but it's not like that. There are
things you can't control."

Let's stare the problem right in the eye
It's plagued me from coast to coast
Racing the clock to please everyone
All but the one who matters the most

Reflections of reality
are slowly coming into view
How in the hell could you possibly forgive me?
After all the hell I put you through

It's time for me to deal
Becoming all too real
living in fear-
Why'd I betray my friend?
Lying until the end
Living life so pretend
It's time to make my amends
I'll never hurt you again

No mommy, don't do it again
Don't do it again
I'll be a good boy
I'll be a good boy, I promise
No mommy don't hit me
Why did you have to hit me like that, mommy?
Don't do it, you're hurting me
Why did you have to be such a bitch
Why don't you,
Why don't you just fuck off and die
Why can't you just fuck off and die
Why can't you just leave here and die
Never stick your hand in my face again bitch
FUCK YOU
I don't need this shit
You stupid sadistic abusive fucking whore
How would you like to see how it feels mommy
Here it comes, get ready to die
