HIS ARMS ARE MADE OF METAL
I CAN'T WAIT TO TWIST THEM OFF
HE CAN TELL YOU HE'S A HUMAN
HE CAN TELL YOU HE'S SAWED OFF
KNOWING I CAN'T WIN THIS FIGHT I
KNOW YOU CAN HUNT THEM ALL
CRUSH THE PILLARS THAT SURROUND YOU
CRUSH THE SYMBOLS OF YOUR GOD
NOW! I DON'T WANT TO TELL YOU
WHY! I CAN'T EVEN SHOW YOU
NOW! I JUST WANT TO EAT THESE
SINS I'VE COMMITTED TO YOU
YOU CAN HAMMER ON MY ANVIL
MOLTEN LEAD JUST BURNS MY HANDS
SHAPE ME UP THE WAY YOU WANT ME
GIVE ME SIGHT WITH BOILING SAND
I CAN SEE YOUR FACE BEFORE ME
DIAMOND SIGHT PROJECTS MY MIND
I NOW SEE YOU SOUL INSIDE ME
YOU CAN LEAVE YOUR HEART BEHIND

MY INSIDE'S BURSTING WITH BLOOD
THE PRESSURE'S RISING
SO I STUFF MY FACE
SO I CAN'T TASTE THE SALT NO MORE
MY HEART'S JUST POUNDING OUTSIDE
IT'S POUNDING LIKE A GUN
IT'S SHOOTING ALL MY CONQUESTS OF
JUNK FOOD AND OF ALCOHOL
I'M ALWAYS TIRED MY EYES
MY EYES ARE GRAINY
AND I'M LIKE A SLUG JUST FEEDING
UNNATURALLY DEPLETING
I'VE GOT TO TRY TO SURVIVE
BUT I CAN'T SHAKE THE BLOOD
THAT RISES TO MY EYES
SO I CAN'T SEE NO MORE.
ONE, TWO, ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR!
ONE, TWO, ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR!
THIS FREIGHT TRUCK'S READY TO CRASH
MY WALLS ARE SELF-IMPLODING
AUTOMATIC DESTRUCTION
IS JUST THE WAY TO GO
IT'S WHAT I PUT IN MYSELF
I CALL IT SUICIDE
'CAUSE ALL THE POISON I HAVE
JUST TASTES TO SWEET TO ME.
I'M ALWAYS TIRED MY EYES
MY EYES ARE GRAINY
AND I'M LIKE A SLUG JUST FEEDING
UNNATURALLY DEPLETING
I'VE GOT TO TRY TO SURVIVE
BUT I CAN'T SHAKE THE BLOOD
THAT RISES TO MY EYES
SO I CAN'T SEE NO MORE.
ONE, TWO, ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR!
ONE, TWO, ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR!
MECHANICAL MALFUNCTION,
WE'LL MEET YOU IN THE JUNCTION,
MANIACAL DESTRUCTION,
METAL AND RUN THEM!

FUNNY I DON'T SIT THAT WAY
MY LEGS CROSS ON THE OTHER SIDE
AND WHEN I'M DANCING ON THE STAGE
I TURN AND DIVE
AND WHEN I SEE THE TREND THIS YEAR
I PUFF MY CHEST AND STRUT AWAY
'CAUSE I JUST ROCKED THAT STYLE
BACK IN THE OLD SCHOOL DAYS
SO TELL ME I AM JUST A SNOB
I'M JUST A GUY WHO'S IN THE KNOW
I'M COOLER THAN COOL, HIPPER THAN HIP
I JUST KILL
SO WHERE'S THIS CASH BEEN COMING FROM
EMPLOYMENT'S NEVER BEEN A CHOICE
MY PARENTS PAY FOR EVERYTHING
MY WALLET'S BURSTING STILL
SO I CAN'T SEE WHY THEY'RE SO DRASTIC
THEY WANT TO FEEL LIKE THEY'RE COLLAPSED IN
I'VE FALLEN IN THIS STYLE OF MAKING
MYSELF FEEL SO BAD

THEY SAY YOU WENT AWAY
BUT NOT WHERE YOU WENT TO
I TRIED TO TRACK YOU DOWN
BUT I COULD NOT FIND YOU
YOU DODGE ALL OF THE TRAPS
THAT I LAID OUT FOR YOU
YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO DIE
BUT THEN YOU GOT AWAY FROM ME
THEN YOU WENT AWAY
AND I TRIED TO CATCH YOU
HOW COULD I GET MY PAY
WHEN I HAVE NOT YET KILLED YOU?
YOU ESCAPED FROM THE BOMB
I LEFT IN YOUR HOTEL ROOM
HOW CAN I GET MY PAY
WHEN I HAVE NOT YET KILLED YOU?

I KNOW WHAT MUD IS LIKE
DARK VEINS OF EARTH ENGULF ME
BLACK WEB OF SMOKE ABOVE
DESCENDS UPON THE BELFRY
I'M FILLED WITH BLOOD AND GOLD
WEIGHS ME DOWN I CAN'T RUSH ME
DRAGS MY SOUL OUT OF SKIN
EXPLODING HELL UPON ME
ALONE
I'VE THROWN AWAY
THEIR FACES NOW
THEY DROWN ALIVE
THEY SINK INTO
THE BLACKED SEA
THEY CANNOT HIDE
THEY CANNOT FIGHT
MY FRIENDS ARE ALL ALIKE
THEY SAY IT'S COOL WITHOUT ME
I KNOW I'VE LEFT THEIR CLIQUE
CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHAT I'VE SEEN
MY VISION'S TAKEN HOLD
BEEN TAKEN OUT BY MY BREED
THEY JUST CAN'T LET ME OUT
ONLY FELT GUILT WHEN I WAS
ALONE
I'VE THROWN AWAY
THEIR FACES NOW
THEY DROWN ALIVE
THEY SINK INTO
THE BLACKED SEA
THEY CANNOT HIDE
THEY CANNOT FIGHT

OPEN TO I'LL OPEN YOUR SUGGESTIONS
'CAUSE I'LL TRY TO BE A BETTER PERSON
GET ON TRACK GET TO MY DESTINATION
GOT TO ORGANIZE MY SITUATION
HOPS INSIDE MY WASTED CRANIUM
TO STOP THE WIDE INVITING COVERSATION
MOTIVATE TO STOP YOUR DRINK ADDICTION
I DON'T WANT TO HEAR YOUR CRUEL RELIGIONS
TRY TO LEAVE MY HOUSE OF THIS AFFLICTION
GET OUTSIDE TO CLEAN MY INNER FEELING
WHAT I DO RESULTS IN NEVER HEALING
WHAT I POUR IS SINKING IN MY CEILING
SO NOW I'M IN THIS TIDAL WAVE, AGAIN
I JUST CAN'T BRING MYSELF TO SWIM UP AGAIN
I'M TRAPPED INSIDE THEIR ISLAND'S MAZE AGAIN
WHILE THEIR HEARTS ARE CRUSHED BENEATH THE PRESSURE'S HATE

I'VE BEEN TOLD
I CAN'T PLAY THIS GAME
DIED SO MAY TIMES I'M THINKIN'
POCKET'S FULL OF SHAME
CUT MY REFLECTION'S EYE
STARE IN THE GLASS TONIGHT
TELL ME MY FACE IS RIGHT
TELL ME AND I JUST MIGHT
START TO BLAME
SWITCH UP THOSE SIDES
I'M NOT FULL OF VIRTUE
I JUST WON'T TRY
I'VE BEEN SOLD
TO YOUR HEART FULL OF PAIN
TRUST ME WITH YOUR PRECIOUS INSIDES
I WON'T GET THEM STAINED
CUT MY REFLECTION'S EYE
GLASS IN MY STARE TONIGHT
TELL ME HIS FACE IS RIGHT
TELL ME AND SHE JUST MIGHT
START TO BLAME
TRANSFER MY PRIDE
I'M FULL OF VIRTUE
TEST OF MY PLIGHT

THROUGH DISTANT RAIN AND THUNDER
THROUGH ICY WIND AND FIRE
I WILL CONTINUE TO GO ON
MY HEART CONTINUES BEATING
THOUGH TIRED AND SICK IT IS
IT'S BOUND AND WILLING TO GO ON
THE DARK IS EVER MOVING
IT FINDS ME WHERE I GO
THE AIR IS COLD THE NIGHT IS LONG
MY HEART CONTINUES BEATING
THOUGH YOU ARE FAR AWAY
I'LL KEEP MY WORD TO REMAIN STRONG
BUT WHEN ALL HOPE IS SINKING
AND I AM TIRED OF THINKING
YOU COME AND TAKE ME AWAY
AND ALL THE DARKNESS LEAVES ME
AND I WILL SING SWEETLY
AND I CAN FINALLY BREATHE
THE MAN'S A MIGHTY STRANGER
HE'LL CUT YOUR SOUL AWAY
WHEN YOU'RE NOT LOOKING HE'LL BE THERE
READY TO TAKE YOUR LIFE FORCE
AND POISED TO KILL THEM ALL
AND LEAVE BEHIND HIM JUST DESPAIR
THROUGH DISTANT RAIN AND THUNDER
THROUGH ICY WIND AND FIRE
I WILL CONTINUE TO GO ON
