Round 1!!
I swear to god I'd do it for fun
Just a dead man walkin' with a double barrel shotgun
Ain't a single f*cker left to fear
See their lips moving' but I don't wanna hear
SHOW DOWN (I ain't backing down from anybody)
THROW DOWN (If I don't get some space)
LAY DOWN? (Not in this lift or another)
IT'S A NIGHTMARE (and it's not going away)
All I wanted was your honesty
Something more than this
Something more than me (more than me)
Death can take me if I can't be free
I am not like you, I'm a dying breed
Round 2!!
Something you just don't wanna do
Go dancin' with the devil, unless your wearing my shoes
You got nerve, and I'll give ya that
Watch the world crumble while you sit on your ass!?!
WAKE UP (get your head together motherf*cker)
STRAIT UP (Before it's too late)
STAND UP (Nothing ever lasts forever)
CORRUPT (And that's how it's gonna stay)
All I wanted was your honesty
Something more than this
Something more than me (more than me)
Death can take me if I can't be free
I am not like you, I'm a dying breed

Hard To See
I'm growing so distant
Nothing makes sense to me anymore
I'm learning to resist
Becoming more than you ever were
Can't explain, what's come over me (come over me)
Can't explain, why it's so hard for me,
So hard to see your side.
Projecting all my anger
I can't seem to get this through to you
The walls are closing in
I dare you to walk in my shoes
Can't explain, what's come over me (come over me)
Can't explain, why it's so hard for me,
So hard to see your side.
Your side,
I won't see your side
Can't explain, what's come over me (come over me)
Can't explain, why its so hard for me,
So hard to see your side.
Can't explain, what's come over me (come over me)
Can't explain, why it's so hard for me,
So hard to see your side.
I won't see your side.
Your side
Nothing makes sense to me anymore
I'm learning to resist
Becoming more than you ever were
Can't explain, what's come over me (come over me)
Can't explain, why it's so hard for me,
So hard to see your side.
Projecting all my anger
I can't seem to get this through to you
The walls are closing in
I dare you to walk in my shoes
Can't explain, what's come over me (come over me)
Can't explain, why it's so hard for me,
So hard to see your side.
Your side,
I won't see your side
Can't explain, what's come over me (come over me)
Can't explain, why its so hard for me,
So hard to see your side.
Can't explain, what's come over me (come over me)
Can't explain, why it's so hard for me,
So hard to see your side.
I won't see your side.
Your side

Bulletproof
You can take the money, you can take the ride
You can take it all but never get inside
You can't take my honor, you can't take my soul
You can't take the fact you'll never have control
[Chorus:]
You won't break me, no matter how hard you try
You can't shake me down, I'm f*cking bulletproof
All I've learned, it's like poison
All I've known, inside my mind
All I've seen, it's like venom
All I know, it's all that remains
You can keep the fortune and you can have the fame
You can have the shit you never will obtain
But you can't take my virtue, no you can't take my pride
You can't take the anger building up inside
[Chorus x2]
All I've learned, it's like poison
All I've known, inside my mind
All I've seen, it's like venom
All I know, it's all that remains
You can take it all but never get inside
You can't take my honor, you can't take my soul
You can't take the fact you'll never have control
[Chorus:]
You won't break me, no matter how hard you try
You can't shake me down, I'm f*cking bulletproof
All I've learned, it's like poison
All I've known, inside my mind
All I've seen, it's like venom
All I know, it's all that remains
You can keep the fortune and you can have the fame
You can have the shit you never will obtain
But you can't take my virtue, no you can't take my pride
You can't take the anger building up inside
[Chorus x2]
All I've learned, it's like poison
All I've known, inside my mind
All I've seen, it's like venom
All I know, it's all that remains

No One Gets Left Behind
No one gets left behind, another fallen soul
No one gets left behind, another broken home
No one gets left behind, we stand and fight together
No one gets left behind, or we all die alone
Politicians bathing their greed
No idea how to be all they can be
Have you no honor? Have you no soul?
What is it your dying for? do you really even know?
Have you no backbone? Have you no spine?
Whatever happened to No one gets left behind
No one gets left behind, I know you made it up
No one gets left behind, It's war for money
No one gets left behind, Drink from the golden cup
No one gets left behind, Your time is coming
Play your wargames with other people's lives
It should be you on the front line
Have you no honor? Have you no soul?
What is it your dying for? do you really even know?
Have you no backbone? Have you no spine?
Whatever happened to No one gets left behind
No one gets left behind, I know you made it up
No one gets left behind, another broken home
No one gets left behind, we stand and fight together

Crossing Over
Perched alone he sits there broken
An elder man with storm clouds setting in his eyes
He counts the sands of time, remembering days gone by
it's seemed like yesterday before it washed away
Hey don't wait for me there, just find your own way
Hey don't wait for me there, I'll be there soon enough
A widows life ticks out like clock work
A thousand tears she's cried a hundred times before
But now that he is gone, she's ready to move on
It all just fell away, it seems like yesterday
Hey don't wait for me there, just find your own way
Hey don't wait for me there, I'll be there soon enough
I'll be there soon enough
An elder man with storm clouds setting in his eyes
He counts the sands of time, remembering days gone by
it's seemed like yesterday before it washed away
Hey don't wait for me there, just find your own way
Hey don't wait for me there, I'll be there soon enough
A widows life ticks out like clock work
A thousand tears she's cried a hundred times before
But now that he is gone, she's ready to move on
It all just fell away, it seems like yesterday
Hey don't wait for me there, just find your own way
Hey don't wait for me there, I'll be there soon enough
I'll be there soon enough

Burn It Down
You think you know me
You don't know shit
I've seen the world through your eyes
And it makes me sick
I question all of your answers
They're f*cking lies
I won't conform to your system
I'd rather die
[Chorus:]
I burn it down
Just to watch it go
I burn it down
So everybody knows
I burn it down
Just to see it torched
I burn it down
I hate it to the core
You think you're a martyr
Not hard to see
You wanna rule the f*cking world
You've gotta get through me
Your iron fist will be broken
No soul to sell
You think I'll burn for my actions
See you in hell
I burn it down
I do it for myself
I burn it down
For me and no one else
I burn it down
Just to watch it fall
I burn it down
I hate you f*cking all
[Chorus]
You don't know shit
I've seen the world through your eyes
And it makes me sick
I question all of your answers
They're f*cking lies
I won't conform to your system
I'd rather die
[Chorus:]
I burn it down
Just to watch it go
I burn it down
So everybody knows
I burn it down
Just to see it torched
I burn it down
I hate it to the core
You think you're a martyr
Not hard to see
You wanna rule the f*cking world
You've gotta get through me
Your iron fist will be broken
No soul to sell
You think I'll burn for my actions
See you in hell
I burn it down
I do it for myself
I burn it down
For me and no one else
I burn it down
Just to watch it fall
I burn it down
I hate you f*cking all

Far from Home
Another day in this carnival of souls
Another nights ends, end as quickly as it goes
The memories are shadows, ink on the page
And I can't seem to find my way home
And it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
Your heaven's trying everything
To keep me out
All the places I've been and things I've seen
A million stories that made up a million shattered dreams
The faces of people I'll never see again
And I can't seem to find my way home
'Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
To break me down
'Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
To keep me out
'Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
To break me down
'Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
Your heaven's trying everything
To break me down
To break me down
To break me down
Your heavens trying everything
Your heavens trying everything
To break me, down
Another nights ends, end as quickly as it goes
The memories are shadows, ink on the page
And I can't seem to find my way home
And it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
Your heaven's trying everything
To keep me out
All the places I've been and things I've seen
A million stories that made up a million shattered dreams
The faces of people I'll never see again
And I can't seem to find my way home
'Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
To break me down
'Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
To keep me out
'Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
To break me down
'Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
Your heaven's trying everything
To break me down
To break me down
To break me down
Your heavens trying everything
Your heavens trying everything
To break me, down

Falling In Hate
Falling in hate with you
More and more every day
Falling away from this
In every way
Is it right
Is it wrong
You and I don't belong
Falling in hate, Nothing to say
Don't want to hear you
Falling away, nothing to give no
Falling in hate, Nothing but fear in your heart
Falling away, nothing to live for
To you it's a game
To me it's a joke
A mile to hang by
With one inch of rope
Is it wrong
is it right
You and I? Day and Night
Falling in hate, Nothing to say
Don't want to hear you
Falling away, nothing to give no
Falling in hate, Nothing but fear in your heart
Falling away, nothing to live for
Despite what you think of me
And despite what you say
I gave you everything
And you threw it away
Falling in hate, Nothing to say
Don't want to hear you
Falling away, nothing to give no
Falling in hate, Nothing but fear in your heart
Falling away, nothing to live for
More and more every day
Falling away from this
In every way
Is it right
Is it wrong
You and I don't belong
Falling in hate, Nothing to say
Don't want to hear you
Falling away, nothing to give no
Falling in hate, Nothing but fear in your heart
Falling away, nothing to live for

My Own Hell
Twisting and turning unable to sleep
Do the voices ever stop
My thoughts speak louder the more I resist
And they're driving me insane
Do they ever go?
Inside
I'm a danger to myself
(I'm a danger to myself)
Inside
I'm a prisoner of my own hell
(Of my own hell)
Losing the battle I waged on myself
Lock me up and toss the key
Toys in the attic it's all getting worse
Why won't I let me be
Oh god make it stop
Inside
I'm a danger to myself
(I'm a danger to myself)
Inside
I'm a prisoner of my own hell
(Of my own hell)
Fit me for a strait jacket
Put me in a padded cell
I'm a danger to you all
And I'm a danger to myself
Inside
I'm a danger to myself
(I'm a danger to myself)
Inside
I'm a prisoner of my own hell
(Of my own hell)
Do the voices ever stop
My thoughts speak louder the more I resist
And they're driving me insane
Do they ever go?
Inside
I'm a danger to myself
(I'm a danger to myself)
Inside
I'm a prisoner of my own hell
(Of my own hell)
Losing the battle I waged on myself
Lock me up and toss the key
Toys in the attic it's all getting worse
Why won't I let me be
Oh god make it stop
Inside
I'm a danger to myself
(I'm a danger to myself)
Inside
I'm a prisoner of my own hell
(Of my own hell)
Fit me for a strait jacket
Put me in a padded cell
I'm a danger to you all
And I'm a danger to myself

I'm a danger to myself
(I'm a danger to myself)
Inside
I'm a prisoner of my own hell

Walk Away
I'm sorry for the Demon I've become
You should be sorry for the angel you are not
I apologize for the cruel things that I did
But I don't regret one single word I said
Just walk away
Make it easy on yourself
Just walk away
Please release me from this hell
Just walk away
There's just nothing left to feel
Just walk away
Pretend that none of this is real
Would you forgive me
If I told you that I cared
Would you be sorry
If I swore that I'd be there
Please forgive me
For laughing when you fall
I'm so sorry
But I never cared at all
Just walk away
Make it easy on yourself
Just walk away
Please release me from this hell
Just walk away
There's just nothing left to feel
Just walk away
Pretend that none of this is....
None of this is...
Just walk away
Make it easy on us both
Just walk away
There was never any hope
Just walk away
You already know the deal
Just walk away
Pretend that none of this
No, none of this was real
You should be sorry for the angel you are not
I apologize for the cruel things that I did
But I don't regret one single word I said
Just walk away
Make it easy on yourself
Just walk away
Please release me from this hell
Just walk away
There's just nothing left to feel
Just walk away
Pretend that none of this is real
Would you forgive me
If I told you that I cared
Would you be sorry
If I swore that I'd be there
Please forgive me
For laughing when you fall

None of this is...

Make it easy on us both
Just walk away
There was never any hope
Just walk away

Just walk away

No, none of this was real

Bad Company
A company always on the run

War Is The Answer
Go!!
This ain't a test, F*ck the rest
Time to set the record strait
Talk your shit, Behind my back
Let's hear you say it to my face
I've heard the words fall out your lips
You little trendy f*cking bitch
The time has come to get you some
Cause i do not give a shit
Do you take me for a fool?
How's it feel to be a tool?
See to me your just a cancer
Motherf*cker war is the answer
As of now the end begins
I want to laugh but there's no joke
To eat with beasts
And run with the wolves
On the ashes you must choke
I know it's got to chap your ass
To think I just won't go away
Effects me not, I'm writing you off
I've got nothing more to say
Do you take me for a fool?
How's it feel to be a tool?
See to me your just a cancer
Motherf*cker war is the answer
Get some
You want to disrespect me

Everything I've done
To be who I am
As far as I've come
I'll slap you so f*cking hard
It'll feel like you kissed a freight train
F*ck you
Do you take me for a fool?
How's it feel to be a tool?
Talk your shit behind my back
See to me your just a cancer
The time has come to you some
Motherf*cker war is the answer
