King of America

Verse 1
I’m all in favour of a dictatorship
Only if I’m the dictator
I’m all in favour of eroding rights
Only if mine are maintained
All citizens shall bow down before me
Dissenters will be punished
To the fullest extent of the law
This land is mine and you’ll do as I say
Live by my rules or you’ll dearly pay

Verse 2
I’m all in favour of a shadow government
Only if I’m at the head of it
I’m all in favour of importing drugs
Only if I profit from them
All citizens are below me
My throne is mightier than their treasonous thoughts
I’ll spy with my all seeing eye
On those who show resistance
And turn them into sheeple

Bridge
In me you shall trust
For I am the King of America
Death, captivity, and misery
Are what you’ll get from me

Chorus
The Richard Lawrences and Squeaky Frommes of this world
Will not force me into a fraternity
Of those who have came before me
And were too weak to hold onto their power
The J. Hinckley Jrs. and F.M. Durans of the world
Will never be allowed to overthrow me
As King of America there’s security
In knowing that I’ll reign for as long as I choose to

The Name of The Game

Verse 1
Now, here
See the plan and disappear
There, always
Embrace hope and fight the fear
Today, in this place
Memorize newfound disgrace
Far away, tomorrow
Soak in illusion and push back the sorrow
Adjust the plan and continue to care
Think of being anywhere but here

Verse 2
Good, right
Resolve conflicts with worldly might
Okay, sure
Shift alliances if you prefer
Wait, for now
The right to live will not take a bow
Begin, again
Adoration is not the goal
Adjust the plan and inherit wealth
Become familiar with collective amnesia

Bridge
Confer with your tribes when creating monsters
Debate with your tribes to manage monsters
Manipulate your tribes to exterminate monsters
Rush to the podium to accept your reward
You have lived up to your birthright
Congratulations are in order

Chorus
Undercurrents of hate occupy the land
Natural crowns are the killing kind
Truth and reconciliation is the name of the game
States of minds remain unchanged
Gossip is prime verbal transaction
Defective is reflective in traditional factions
Complexion is regulated along foreign lines
Inaction is your preference, not mine

And The Stars Go With You

Verse 1
Like yesterday
There's something old, something new
Along with me
Dim light and shadows
I want to walk with you
Please say yes
You can't keep a good man down
He'll always want to stand on his own
Help him to lift himself up
I've been trying to reach for the stars
Sometimes I come close
Other times I fall short
It's becoming a love-hate quest

Verse 2
World keeps turning
I'm yearning to shine so bright
To burn the dark eyes
I've been seeing myself with
Fascination becomes obsession
Admiration is no longer shown
Jealousy be still
To you it's effortless
It comes naturally
The light within you radiates
I don't believe it just happens that way
The mystery deepens

Verse 3
You're more than a simple creation
You're extraordinary
Luck delivers good fortune to you
I'd like to break bread with you
To learn things from the few
That shine as bright as you do

Chorus 1
You breathe
And the stars go with you

Chorus 2
You breathe
And the stars go with you
You get out of bed
Full of dreams and inspiration
I have tried but to no avail
To be like you
Maybe that's why I fail

The Ladder

Verse 1
They say we are unusual creatures
Creatures of a foreign nature
And that we should be exposed
Young and old, we're all treated the same
Cast in the harshest of lights
And thrown away like we're trash

We seek refuge in places that are more welcoming
In places that are less frightening
Trying to survive is challenging

Mostly stuck in situations not of our own making
Confusion transforms into rage
And in its carnage, we're always to blame

Verse 2
Suspicion seeps into our bloodstream
Turning us into pseudo-beings
And rules over us like a king

With just a look, fantasies begin to form
We dream about getting closer
And to finally make a move

If all goes well, we'll reach the state of ecstasy
Dismiss the notions of inferiority
And be proud of our identities

Verse 3
Is there a way for us to live a different life?
To speak words we don't understand
To act in a peculiar manner

Temptation could undo all the advancements
We've worked hard at attaining
Being knocked down is closer to death

If we overcome the multitude of hardships
By getting a firm grip on the ladder
Then we'll be able to succeed

Chorus
We always try to climb up the ladders of men
But once we reach a certain height
We get knocked to the ground
The sky is the limit
But it's difficult to reach for it
When the ladder is constantly being moved around

Eyes Wide Shut

Verse 1
Generating hits, you've got several smashes
You should be smiling from ear to ear
Why the sadness and disappointment?
There are many who would kill to be in your spot
That's not an exaggeration
It's a proven fact
If your eyes were wide open, you'd know this
Step outside of white and be in black
To experience the way that things are
Every spectrum of the rainbow
Waiting to capture your attention

Verse 2
A blockbuster falling into your lap
You're so lucky but you don't act that way
There are many who would trade places with you
Right or wrong, this is how it is
You try to shield yourself from knowing many things
Ignorance is not bliss
But you wish that were the case
Bells are always ringing inside your head
Stillness of mind is difficult to attain
If you step outside of white and be in black
Every spectrum of the rainbow will be revealed to you

Chorus
If your eyes are wide shut
Then so is your mind
Your heart is closed
And your spirit is broken
Running blindly without a care in the world
Indifferent to emotions and badly bruised
With your eyes wide shut

Castle

Listen up, we're taking over
You and your kind must step aside
Ranting and raving won't change anything
Decisions have been made and won't be reversed
Nothing is fair so don't complain
We keep getting richer and we like it that way
We live like kings, we live like queens
That rule over useful peasants
It's our birthright, our rightful place
Hush your mouths if you disagree with our ways of life
With how you're treated

Shacks will be converted into mansions
Mansions that captivate and astound
With grass that's greener than the colour green
And gardens so lush, they'll seem unreal
The sun will rise and fall on our part of town
The best part of town
This is how we'll choose to live
Live like kings and queens in our very own castle

Knock, knock
Who's there?
Possibly your worst nightmare
Put on your shoes and pack your bags
This is your only warning so take heed
Everyone should travel
So be glad that you'll get to see the world
It's larger than most people realize
It's vibrant, it's complex
And while you're doing that
We'll live like kings and queens in our very own castle
In our modern castle

Pushed along, pushed aside
It's difficult clinging to pride
We're constantly told nothing stays the same
Like a broken record, it drives us insane
Psychologists give useless advice
On how to deal with our new ways of life
We don't believe in what they say
They haven't experienced our pain
We put them in the same category
As politicians and salesmen
They always have something to sell
But the more we buy, the more we sigh
We dream of being kings, of being queens
Reigning over our very own castle
Living in a modern castle

As dark as night, as bright as day
Two opposing sides of an ancient spectrum
Perhaps its destiny that needs to be fulfilled
And when that's achieved, only the mighty will rule
They'll rule over us like kings and queens
In castles we've built, in castles we've lived in
We'll be forgotten royalty
On a journey to reclaim our very own castle
And if we're successful, we'll cherish our castle
So let's fight to have our own castle

Wickedly Perfect

Verse 1
Surrender your brain to the gods
To receive all that you'll ever need
A pseudo-being with new senses
You'll experience fresher and grander things
Wickedly perfect, wickedly perfect
Do as you're told
Nothing more, nothing less
With arms wide open and a willing soul
Nothing is off limits, nothing's taboo
Your glorious gift is special and rare
With a single clap, you can be anywhere
Wander between the edges of your mind
With fire at your feet and no water in sight
You'll entertain us or just simply burn

Verse 2
No hint, no clue
Nothing is left behind
If you always ask questions
You're wasting time
Follow the path approved by kings and queens
And be immersed by great pleasures and rewards
Wickedly perfect, wickedly perfect
You're the problem but don't be afraid of yourself
We're the solution to transport you to a better realm
Up and away from uneventful life
And into many sublime frontiers
A unique relationship you'll have
With all the ones who watch you closely
You're exactly what you were created to be

Chorus
Truth and reality are open to interpretation
What was still is and will ultimately never be
You're an ordinary fool if you know what's good for you
Unburden yourself of commonality
And be the one we revere

Verse 1
Colour is size, size is everything
Take a number and get in line
The glory you possess is in high demand
And you'll share it with all who are intrigued
An undeniable wonder of the world
To look at, to hold, and to have
A snake and a dove rolled into one package
Lay it on thick and be unrelenting

Verse 2
Many don't give a damn about your ageless plight
Your concerns are ignored
Blending in is what you're expected to do
Although you're failing
You reject your innate capabilities
And subscribe to nonsensical dogma
A half-being kneeling before the mighty
Begging for scraps and for sympathy
If only you knew your origins and purpose
The world as we know it would be forever changed

Verse 3
Without justice, there's no peace of mind
Unscramble your brains and reclaim yourself
Being a clown won't get you far away
From the distractions and pitfalls which surround you
When you're presented with playing by the rules or taking short-cuts
Choose wisely
Moments reverberate beyond breath and sound
Like a roller coaster, they keep pushing forward

Chorus
A spectrum, a state of mind, a group
You're the master and it's the subject
An institution to maintain and to destroy
You're the challenger of bodies and minds

Verse 1
Addicted to lemons instead of guys named Don
Refusing to be tainted by the personalities of others
Worshipping spices instead of white Jesus
The pot has been stirred and its hotter than cayenne pepper
Swimming in clean water instead of watching TV
Being physically active will stimulate my mind
Accepting myself while rejecting self-help gurus
Doctor [fill in the blank] can lecture someone else
Soaking up sunlight instead of bad habits
Being filled with the warmth of the light and wanting more

Verse 2
Stuffing my face with books instead of rice and beans
I won't be obese and I'll be well-informed
Recognizing who enemies are and keeping them close to me
Like a game of snakes and ladders
You're one step away from being bitten
Putting on costumes to keep me warm
Instead of hiding from myself and the rest of the world
Selling the truth instead of bodies and lies
Purity and honesty are a forgotten art
Like an ancient city, it's waiting to be uncovered
When it's personal, it's priceless
Knowing what to keep and discard
Beginning as a caterpillar then becoming a butterfly

Verse 3
Using information as a weapon instead of guns and bombs
When it's accurate and concise, it can cut through lies and deception
Like the strongest spider web preventing a stampede
From trampling over everything that's pure and precious
Accepting history for the way it is
Instead of sweeping it off its feet and romanticizing it
Even though it can be altered and casually dismissed
I'll keep searching for what's real and dismiss all that's fake

Verse 4
Learning how to play chess instead of how to hate
Being logical and strategic when dealing with differences
Catching flies with honey instead of a cold from germs
Jumping over obstacles and relishing in victory
Effects from a thought can outlast the beating of a heart
If I'm careful enough
What I do will be replicated and improved upon
Being the king of my domain without wearing a crown
Sovereign in mind, body, and soul

Chorus
No desperate need for superiority
I am who I am, I know what I know
You can't appease me with ponies
I'll reject your lollipops
I'll ride my own wave
No matter how large or small

Life As We Know It

Verse 1
If you're fast, they'll chase after you
If you're slow, they'll run over you
If you're weak, they'll bury you into the ground
If you're strong, they'll try to wrestle with you
If you're fat, they'll poke you with pins
If you're skinny, they'll shove sandwiches in your mouth
If you're curious, they'll purchase books for you
If you're indifferent, they'll pity you
The scales of life, the spectrum
To which everything is measured upon

Verse 2
If you're tall, they'll want to cut your legs off
If you're short, they'll want to sit on your head
If you're funny, they'll want you to entertain them
If you're stoic, they'll treat you like a robot
If you're black, they'll have no compassion for you
If you're white, they'll send you to the moon
If you're gay, they'll want you to be a clown
If you're depressed, they'll name pajamas after you
If you're cool, they'll think of you as arrogant
If you're awkward, they'll want to trip you over
The wheels of time, the journey
To which everyone is struggling on

Verse 3
If you're sexually active, they'll think of you as a slut
If you're a virgin, they'll want you to live in basements
If you're famous, they'll want to break into your house
If you're obscure, they'll think of you as worthless
If you're right, they'll want to punish you
If you're wrong, they'll welcome you into their club
If you're free, they'll want to limit your options
If you're stuck, they'll rejoice with glee
The scales of life, the spectrum
To which everything is measured upon
The wheels of time, the journey
To which everyone is struggling on

Bridge
It's difficult to distinguish between animals and humans
Being the sole inhabitant of an island is a recurring dream
There's only so many grits one can cook before insanity prevails

Chorus
You've got to keep on walking
Act like a freight train
And roll over all things and those who get in your way
No regret, no remorse as you disintegrate in a dog eat dog world
This is life as we know it

Close your eyes and give me your land
In return I'll give you glorified lies
No need to starve when I have all the food
Display loyalty and you'll get to eat
Necessities will be at your disposal
So long as you agree with me

You'll get to brush your teeth and cover your as-s
Pretty please forgive me if that sounds crass
You're too sensitive but I can help to butch you up
Put you in a ring with a prize fighter
Charge people lots of money to see the spectacle
If your ear is bitten off
Do the same to the other guy
By helping me you're helping yourself
Your assistance will go a long way
By making you a better person and enriching your soul

Clap your hands and bear witness with me
As I speak the truth ever so loudly
Every word I say is from on high
Don't reject me for I'm the messenger
Syllables spill out like water from a tap
Gather all the buckets and have them filled

Time is always of the essence
Sadly, it waits for no man
We could go on and on about how things should be
Indulge ourselves in wasteful fantasies
But those luxuries are bestowed on children
And it's up to us to teach them the right way

What goes around may come back your way
And if it does, you better duck
You'll have to come to terms with your actions
Embrace accountability as gracefully as you can
Stand tall, keep your head up high
For I'm always by your side

If you ask for forgiveness, you shall receive it
A judgement-free environment is an optimal one
I'll teach you compassion and empathy
And my personal brand of philosophy
You don't have to travel the world to get what you need
The cup of wisdom is now in your hands
You've been dehydrated
Drink up and fill your soul
Goodness will purify you in profound ways
It has the ability to outlast your bones

The future is here and now
What you make of it is everlasting
No need to knock on wood if you do as you're told
Foolish beings have been bought and sold
But you're wise enough to understand the gift you've been given

Going down is not an option
You do your best to live a good life
It gets more challenging as the days pass
And surrendering becomes appealing
Follow my lead and you'll eventually see
That what I've explained to you is real

I'm interested in your well-being
I'm interested in your healing
A comprehensive approach without restrictions
A metamorphosis of every cell and thought
Clean out your ears and eyes
For I have the cure you seek
The search for tomorrow begins now
You're young and on the edge of adventure
Place your feet in my hands
And I'll release you into the sky
You'll go beyond the clouds
And experience what's on the other side

Out of Time

Verse 1
Hide your husbands, hide your boyfriends
I'm coming for them
They've reached the age of maturity
And now they'll be used and abused
Subjected to harsh treatments
Treated worse than dogs
Rites of passages are common
And this particular one is a favourite of mine
Through their loss and through their pain
I'll gain everything that's been promised to me

Verse 2
When you control nothing
Everything will eventually work against you
Inflation and technology are never to blame
For that, you'll have to use a mirror
Your inheritances have been squandered
And your sole objective is to hide from competitors
The dreams of your country haven't been realized
You took your eyes off the prize
But still you complain
You are confused despite what most people may say
Whose life is it anyway?
It's yours and you've ruined it

Verse 3
Children gather around for your daily dose of madness and misery
You'll have to fend for yourselves
In a world that's been described as being unforgiving
They preach that education will be your saving grace
But it's just another religion
The only thing your elders can do for you
Is pat you on the head and feed you fairy-tales

Chorus
When you're out of breath
You won't be immune to the effects of time and space
Only fools reject the inevitable
Every road has been marched on
And now you're out of time

Verse 1
Typical journeys beyond the sun
And roller-coasters in my heart
I've rejected love so many times that I've lost count
Black daggers and white knives
Within an inch of my eyes and hands
Always on guard and never surprised
Trust is reserved for fools
Catastrophic interactions and fallout like no one has ever seen
History is made and revised
The mind is the ultimate prize

Verse 2
Mad men and little women
Working together behind the scenes
Pushing paper and creating lies
These are the elders to despise
With one foot forward, a dozen steps back
Kicked repeatedly when on the ground
Yelling fire is more advantageous
To getting the help I need
The weak beg, the smart take for themselves
If the lights are red, they change it to green
Reinvention is a necessary skill
To learn and to implement

Verse 3
A rebel of unknown status
Refusing the poison that's presented to me
Still, some things go unnoticed
The senses are compromised
In an era of confusion and angst
The lack of fortitude is the centrepiece
If I have no standards, I'll accept everything
Blending in like snowflakes in blizzards
All roads eventually lead to somewhere
My main goal is to achieve peace of mind
Nothing is free, sacrifices must be made
To learn is to live with failure

Chorus 1
Bumps and bruises come and go
The healing process is sometimes slow
Naturality gains popularity
But no one knows who I am

Chorus 2
Distractions and deadlines come and go
Personal improvement is sometimes slow
Psychology gains popularity
But no one knows who I am

Chorus 3
Thoughts and actions come and go
The passage of time is sometimes slow
Marathons gain popularity
But no one knows who I am

The One That Got Away

Verse 1
You're as lovely as a rose
That I want to pluck out of the ground
Place inside a box and throw into the sea
Watch it drift away
And be glad by what I've done

Verse 2
What you presented to me was nothing more than a dream
A fantasy concocted in your laboratory
I was your experiment
Someone to observe and analyze
My flesh and my bones were not seen as important to you
Wants and needs were driven underground
I was swallowed whole and rolled around inside you

Verse 3
I'm the one who got away from your influence
From all that you have created
Chains were broken and new thoughts are forming
All my senses are revitalized
I never knew that I could be vibrant

Chorus
Broken promises led to the realization
That you were being truthful about yourself
At that point, denial ran its course
You captured the spotlight as I viewed from the sidelines
It was like I was a trinket for your shallow life
So I become the one that got away

The Black Parade

Verse 1
Spend money with your oppressor
A daily ritual
Hold your hand out for crumbs and be grateful
Adjust your attitude and beliefs to fit the norm
Born without privileges and learning through the storm
Solo and so low in a wicked system
A product of mistakes and trauma
A damaged item

Verse 2
Golden opportunities evaporating into the air
Assumed connections weakening amid controversy
Self-constraint doesn't exist
When microphones are shoved in your face
Giving away secrets and customs for momentary gain
Forming crucial bonds is undesirable
An island unto yourself
What you dread the most won't cease to be
21st century reality

Verse 3
Fallen from grace and worshipping an external force
Mirrors have been shattered into unrecognizable pieces
Reasoning in short supply
An abundance of emotions
The black parade is always seen but rarely acknowledged

Bridge 1
You're fucked up and you don't realize it
Acclimation to dysfunction has been successful
Groomed from conception to engage in destruction
Your output is a manifestation of self-hatred

Bridge 2
You're incomplete in a broken world
A collection of disappointment and depression
A psyche passed through generations
You're unsettled and usually on edge

Chorus
You're fucked up and you don't realize it
Daring and dangerous
You're incomplete in a broken world
Detached and declining
The black parade - what's constructed and flawed
The black parade - reflections of existence

We

Verse 1
We are not candy, we are not animals
We're originators of a land
That's been used and abused
We are serious about our liberation
We're disengaging from creations
Which have been designed to harm us
Nothing is more important than truth and independence
The authority of our lives
What we choose to believe in
It's what we worship
It's what we try to manifest regularly
Without it, we're epically hollow
And far from who we should be
Perfecting the skills of listening and thinking
Will determine the path of our journey
And our eternal status

Verse 2
Brain-washing is a practice we engage in
To rid ourselves of the junk
That's been aculated over the years
The notions of inferiority were accepted and taught
And now are rejected
They are banished from our breath and sounds
From our thoughts and behaviour
If it's not important, then it's not worth trying
Something to ignore, something to forget
And to not be bothered with
We've been carrying the heavy weight of frustration and anger
Our experiences were being tainted
And our senses were compromised

Verse 3
There are consequences to having nothing
To letting anything affect you
To suppressing your natural abilities
What you give is ultimately what you get
So give all that you can to yourself
Be exceedingly generous
There are rules to follow, plans to conceive of
Whatever condition you're in
You'll need confidence for elevation

Chorus
We will be healthy
We will be mighty again
We will express ourselves in productive and profound ways
We will be intelligent
We will be compassionate
We will learn how to be human again

Away

Verse 1
I've been watching you for a while now
It sounds sinister
But it's far from being devious
It's not in my nature to be
You're the one who is closer
To being on the dark side
Like a hurricane, what you do is unsettling

Verse 2
You think of yourself as royalty
Destined to rule over everything including me
Regardless of your beliefs
I'll never bow down to you
The crown you've placed upon your head
Is as fake as faux fur

Bridge 1
Don't come to me like a bitch
Your harassment is out of style
I reject your drama
You won't inflict trauma

Bridge 2
My blood doesn't boil
As I've reached a new level of stillness
My voice doesn't carry the undertones of a call to arms
Transcending your influence was a struggle
But, ultimately, was successful

Chorus
Tales of loneliness and misery are a dime a dozen
If you flood this town with your tears
I'll build a cruise ship
And travel to where you don't reside
I must always be away from you

Ask Me No Questions

Ask me no questions for I know nothing
If it’s something about anything
I won’t know what you’re saying
Of course I hear you speak
But I can’t comprehend your message
Even if you break it down
All I hear are sounds
Sounds that are endless
Sounds that are boundless
Sounds which only cloud my mind
You’re searching for answers that I don’t have
I’m avoiding questions that you ask
I keep on telling you that I can’t help you
But you’re persistent like a cop
Trying to get the truth out of a criminal
If there was something I could do
I would have done it
I wouldn’t even hesitate for a moment
You do believe me when I say that, don’t you?
If you don’t, then you don’t
I won’t try to convince you that I‘m an honest person
You can think whatever you want to think
But you can’t do whatever you want to do
It’s not a free country
Nothing is free, so I’ve been told
You ask me: "Should I leave or should I stay?"
I’m thinking: "Didn’t you ask me that yesterday?"
I’ve wasted a lot of time on you
I’ve tried to explain that there’s nothing I can do
I’m not a psychic that can predict your future
I’m not a genie that can grant you three wishes
So ask me no questions for I know nothing

The Deeper Wound

Verse 1
The truth is buried underneath
You’re stepping on it
So get off and dig it out
You will find what you have been looking for
And when you do, you will appreciate it
It has been with you all this time
There is no denying its existence
You must feel lucky to have it
Does that mean you will embrace it?
I have nothing
I have no one to call my own
I feel jealousy towards you

Verse 2
Sometimes I feel like giving up
But I don’t
Other times I feel like winning
But I won’t
They will tear me down
They will wear me down
I’ll be standing on my own
You have everything
You have someone to call your own
I feel anger towards you

Bridge
Having your heart broken is sad
Being pierced by an object is bad
But realizing that you have nothing is the deeper wound

Chorus
I can see you
You’re everywhere, but where am I?
I have searched but I come empty-handed

Come In And Burn

Verse 1
Come in and burn
Peel every inch of skin off your body
The protection you assumed you had
Is really eating away at you
Right down to your core
Political correctness keeps feeding you poison
You eat more than you can chew
What you read and hear doesn’t have any meaning
But how would you know if it does?
Your mind is quarantined from everything around you
But you fear isolation

Verse 2
The stigma associated with your condition
Causes you to be afraid
You worry about your way of thinking
But you can’t concentrate anymore
Your body is turning itself against you
No doctor is going to help you
The kind of help you need is only ignited by fire
Throw yourself into the flames
Burn anything bad, burn anything sad
Turn it all into ashes

Bridge
If you’re tired of manipulation, interrogation and intimidation
Change the situation by going out of your mind
There’s nothing wrong in doing so

Chorus
Come in and burn
Peel every inch of skin off your body
Rip put your hairs and close your eyes
Unburden yourself of sanity
