I’ve been grinding my teeth Worrying about what’s going down I’ve been taking your grief All throughout this town You can take it or leave it I won’t let you run me down I’m not gonna take the blame For all of your misgivings I’ve been tearing my hair out Taking everything to heart I’ve been watching you blow it all away While the heartless tear us all apart You can take it or leave it I won’t let you run me down I’m not gonna take the blame For all of your misgivings And when it’s all said and done You may never want to say my name But it’s all just a senseless waste You make it look like it’s a useless game Forgetting what you say to make me feel like I’m the one Who got it all wrong Taking me for all I’ve got just because you want me to have none I’ve been walking on eggshells Trying to keep the peace I’ve been taking the blame for Things I haven’t done

Indian Giver I've seen your forked tongue Behind that happy face you wear You can't fool me because I've been where you stand Your moving closer to the fall Chorus- You see the future and you stare (and your lost&chasing) But you can't tell what is real (anymore) You keep looking for answers And life keeps giving you all of the chances You've nowhere left You've nowhere left to hide Verse 2 Well indian giver I've seen your forked tongue Behind that happy face you wear Ask not of others but for what they see you for Don't make promises you can not keep Chorus Solo Verse 3 Well indian giver Ive seen seen your forked tongue Behind that happy face you wear Time is endless just like time Will catch us when we fall As running waters will go slow As running waters will go slow

Growing up was the sweetest thing My heart was full , my mind was clean. I gave my ever- thing to those that I loved. Lessons through life, are moulding me And now my mind is not so clean. Shameless people, are so hard for me. Chorus; Stepping Stone, Stepping Stone, Is all that I was to you Your stepping stone. 2nd V Words have been said, for your own gain, you put me down, to keep your game I’m sorry for you, cause money is a disease. Stepping stone, is what you seek And destroyed life’s, is what you leave. You can’t see your power, is your greed. Chorus Stepping Stone, Stepping Stone, Is all that I was to you Your stepping stone Middle 8 Money and greed is you I’m not your stepping stone I can see straight through you I’m not your stepping stone---------- Solo. Chorus 3rd V Lessons learnt ill watch my back, I shut down to your cause. I’m not the only one, to play your game. Stepping stones I walk through life and they are set by me. You will never win against people like me.

Here I go again arguing with myself Tossing up the pros and cons Trying to feel my way through this noise What do I do with all the questions How do I please all the people in my head Here I go again debating with myself Why can’t I be more Like the guy I met this morning What do I do with all the problems How do I please all the voices in my head Oh and It’s a strange fascination Beating me up from the inside Here I go again playing games with myself Walking along and tripping on the white lines of life What do I do with all the questions How do I please all the people in my head Here I go again sailing through life by myself Watching from above and falling off the edge of the world What do I do with all the questions How do I please all the people in my head Here I go again arguing with myself Tossing up the pros and cons Trying to feel my way through this void What do I do with all the questions How do I please all the people in my bed It’s a strange fascination, such a strange fascination

Revolution 03:13
Revolution My babies in the dole queue Sucking off the state I'm in the streets I can't wait. I feel oppressed about it I’m Gona shout about it You can't buy truth A Revolution is coming Rise up we ain’t Joking You can't buy truth Rise up were here to stay Hypocrites go away I know you, you know me Would you like to strangle me? Well you can’t Politicians are lying People are dying You can't buy truth Rise up were here to stay Hypocrites can go away I know you, you know me Would you like to strangle me?

All about you! You got everything want everything you need You’d stick a needle in a stone if you thought you could make it bleed There’s no way of knowing which is right and which is wrong Or where you lie The worlds what you make it you know it’s true It’s yours for the taking yeah it’s up to you You can have it all, all to yourself But when there’s nothing left What you want and what you need It’s nothing like what you believe You’ve taken so much from all the ones who trusted you You’ll wake up alone bathed in a pool of blue You’re living the high life while the rest of us can’t see you From way down here Standing on your soap box your beating proudly on your chest But deep down inside you’re just like the rest Saying one thing and doing another It’s all just noise You’re so full of yourself You can’t see who’s on your side There’s no way of knowing Who you can trust You can take it or leave it Decision’s yours and yours alone Cos when it all goes to pieces You’re left all on your own You want you want at the expense of all the rest You’re counting all your money but is that the real test There’s more than enough for everyone But you don’t care Taking all the credit for all the work you never did You got another thing coming if you think you’ll get away with it There’s only one question we’ve got for you Who made you king?

This Moment 04:14
This Moment Give me this moment to explain I didn’t want to see you cry Give me this moment to refrain I don’t want to make you lie I didn’t mean to hurt you you’re not to blame You’re the one true thing that keeps going And now I see you’re different life’s not the same You’re the one true thing that makes my life alright Give me this moment I am not to blame The shoes on the other foot tonight Give me this moment I’ve gone insane This is the hand that feeds do you really want to bite I didn’t mean to hurt you’re not to blame You’re the one true thing that keeps going And now I see you’re different life’s not the same You’re the one true thing that makes my life alright You’re the one who holds me tight. You’re the one who taught me right. I never want to let you go. Cos you’re the one who told me so. I didn’t mean to hurt you’re not to blame You’re the one true thing that keeps going And now I see you’re different life’s not the same You’re the one true thing that makes my life alright Give me this moment to find a way Don’t complain about my life choice Give me this moment to save the day All this talk is just white noise I didn’t mean to hurt you’re not to blame You’re the one true thing that keeps going And now I see you’re different life’s not the same You’re the one true thing that makes my life alright

Seeing is believing All born the same without guilt or sin Forced to worship, to prey and to sing Taught to believe in an all seeing eye Told there’s a better place when we die ( Chorus ) I won’t read your book I won’t obey your laws I won’t say your prayers I won’t believe your lies Call it a miracle when healed from disease But what about the scientist who studied for years Prayers and faith will do you no good It’s the doctor that saves you with a manmade drug ( Chorus ) Hating the people who don’t think the same Willing to torture murder and maim Brainwashed by fanatics and put to the test They martyr themselves in a suicide vest ( Chorus ) Taking money from the poor to live in luxury Abusing children getting away scot free Persecution, genocide and taking tribal land Converting the heathens so they don’t get out of hand (Chorus ) Seeing is believing I’ll keep my thinking free I’ll put my faith in science and the things that we can see We get just one life so enjoy it while you’re here Live each day like it’s your last without hatred or fear. (Chorus) I won’t say your prayers I won’t believe your lies I won’t say your prayers I won’t believe your lies I won’t say your prayers I won’t believe your lies I won’t say your prayers I won’t believe your lies

One Step Closer I’m under pressure every day to be a better man They want me be special but I’m doing all I can I’m taking pills to keep me up and ones to help me sleep Pills to make my hair all shiny as if I were a sheep She takes me to a special place and gives me lots potion She must be a special chemist yeah living on the ocean She’s so perfect she’s so special She wants the best for me She’s got no time for my dark side She wants me to be the best I can I’m working out and drinking protein I’m smiling the whole time like I’ Don’t want no one to think I’m getting lazy I’m running hard trying to keep fit On a treadmill yeah this is shit Every day just one step closer to crazy I’m working hard to keep up with the grind of every day They want this ‘n’ that and then some more my nerves they start to fra I’m taking pills for concentration and ones to keep sane Pills that keep me up all night thinking about the rain She takes me to a back alley she’s acting kind of funny She blows our minds with drugs and then she rids me of my money She’s so I’m working hard and drinking hard I smile each day I punch my card Don’t want no one to think I’m losing my mind Handfuls of pills that make me function Don’t wanna think ‘bout my c Every day just one step closer to crazy I’m feeling more and more like I can’t keep up any more But everyone keeps telling me watch out they’ll shut the door I’m taking pills for high blood pressure and pills for anxiety All these pills they make me sick of feeling so shitty She’s slowing herself these days and looking back it’s sad We could have done so much better if we’d known what we’d had She’s so I’m checkin’ out and missing deadline I’m making excuses the whole Don’t want no one to think I’m getting lazy I’m swimming hard against the current Trying hard just not to get bur Every day just one step closer to crazy

Will the World Will the world ever change for the better Will my lover ever get my letter Will the sun shine bright tomorrow Is the one I love a liar The image shorn the flesh revealed Success is lust loss extraordinary Now you think you've got a friend Someone clean round the S bend Now you've got the works I see But, what is bothering me Will the love you have now last Or will it be a memory Do you think you've struck a chord What will the future hold A cure for the common cold Does the future hold a better world Or do we go on undeterred
