3rd Strike - Strung Out

this disease deceives us
takes us for a flight
then shoots us down
we need some protection from this soul infection
help us save ourselves before we drown
fight on fight on
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
i cant release myself
calm the storm that builds inside
kill off emotions and i'm strung out again
i cant escape myself
cuz i've been running all my life
kill off emotions and i'm sturng out again
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
a little hit can take away my fears
and make me feel a real man
selling all i have to make me whole
i can feel the fire
fueling me now i've lost control
fight on fight on

[chorus]

i'm sick and tired of being sick and fucking tired
heard the last shot rired walked the high wire
no desire left now that i accept
hanging by a rope seen a little bit of hope gotta cope
this aint no fucking joke
cuz my next binge with the syringe might do me in
take me out
down for the count
you're living in this chaos that aint what i'm about
motherfucker
i see you wasing away
you look at me and you see the same
why must we be normal and sane
why must we live this life of pain

[chorus]

i'm just a slave headed for the grave anyway
i'm just a slave headed for the grave anyway
i'm just a slave headed for the grave anyway
i'm just a slave
3rd Strike Strung Out

3rd Strike - Redemption

if i told you that i would never love another
build a prison for you soul
with the shelter i provide
surely we could live forever

feel addiction take control
i know no other way
reality its just fantasy again
if i could penetrate you soul
i'd help you find a way to make fantasy reality again
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
would you let me take you home fulfill my every need keep you
in this spell you're under
cause nows the time to let you know
if you only take my hand never will there be another

[chorus]

hold you down again
i wont let you breath
i see redemption in your eyes although i always seem to make you cry
so high off the pain that i give to you
hold you down till you cant breath you cant leave
or perceive that you're better off without me
i cut you down before you get a chance to doubt me
no love is sicker than the one we've found
keep a frown on you face so you'll never replace me
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
[chorus]
3rd Strike Redemption

3rd Strike - Paranoid

cause she couldn't help me with my mind
people think i'm insane
because i'm frowning all the time
all day long i think of things
but nothing seems to satisfy
thinking i'll lose my mind
if i dont find something to pacify
can you help me? are you for my brain?
oh yeah
i need someone to show me
the things in life that i cant find
i cant see the things that make
true happiness i must be blind
paranoid
the walls are closing in
i cant breathe cant sleep
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
afraid to live another day
too late to bow my head and prey
hate flowing through my veins
i cant change re-arrange
just a victim a casualty
war waged on humanity
lost my way in the darkness of the daylight
cant run cant hide
no love no fight
brought to my knees by this fate i cant avoid
scared of my own shadow its a battle living paranoid
make a joke and i will sigh
and you will laugh and i will cry
happiness i can not feel
so love to me is so unreal
and so as you hear these words
telling you now of my state
i tell you to enjoy life
i wish i could but its too late
3rd Strike Paranoid

3rd Strike - No Light

lets make a place for me
so i feel right inside

lost what is gone need to know to cary on
if i'd only see the light
maybe then i'd be alright
i know they'd rather see me down
on my knees than on my feet
tell me whats this world we're living in
sometimes it seems so strange

on the outside looking in no light
another man with a blood shot soul
get up dont be one stand up
control destiny dont back away
guns are blasting
hating me
cant take me
i've got to survive
first the order the hit
then forget its all justified
no retreat defeat
all that complete
life full of tears
sin for 2000 years

be not afrhttp://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.comaid thats what they say
i'm fed more lies
see my violent self
all has passed away
but dreams stay alive

[pre chorus]

test the best
check pride inside minds
never the enemy
i ain't ever going to die
first you're here today
and then you're gone tomorrow
why must we live this way everyday wasting our lives
not all has gone away
i shed a tear of sorrow
too bad we couldn't stay
one more day follow me tonight
follow me tonight
let's go fly away tomorrow
ehere everything's alrighty
everything's alright

[chorus]

3rd Strike - Lisa

nothing left to give
in this world filled with pain
you memore remains
i wish i could have said something
to meka you change your mind
but it's done
it's too late

know everything is wrong
know everything is wrong
now that lisa's gone
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
i remember when we used to be friends
those high school days are a haze
now i'm amazed
how the years slipped away
memories faded but you were always a queen to me
it's so sad to see this loss is a tragedy
no lie playing on my sanity
now i shed those tears for your family
and everyone who knew you loved you
what went wrong too young to pass on
i cant believe
i cant believe that you achieved to relieve yourself
a broken girl in a mixed up world walked out the door
i hope you found what you were looking for

[chorus]

turn another page
i guess that life goes on
take it day by day
it sometimes feels so wrong
turn another page
i guess that life goes on
take it day by day
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
[chorus]
3rd Strike Lisa

3rd Strike - Hang On

fading like the sunset
fills me up inside
dropping like a death threat
well i'm a lover
and then a fighter
no easy rider
just like my fallen brothers
watchin' over me
hip to the game
but the game brought the pain
starin' at the walls
i'm wondering how i'm gonna make it out
destiny to victory
you gotta run before you crawl
you must rise above it
listen up to our life
all your dreams are misgueided
hang on
holding on to your pride
but it wont get you what you want
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
life will bring you up
life will put you down
life will build you up
and then burn you down

step inside and testify
you're starin' at you death
but you won't stop to catch you motherfucking breath
petty bangsters playin' up the pranksters
runnin' from the officer
city executioner
come alive dont dive into the violent life
so leave the light on
cause i'll be coming right on up
quick fast
as i dash for the cash
i'm leaving all those other motherfuckers in the past
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
[chorus]
3rd Strike Hang On

3rd Strike - Flow Heat

burning through the pages of my life
cuz i cant help myself decide
if i wasnt to live or die
try to understand why i'm killing myself with my own hand
no solution
mass confusion
that situation that i'm facing
can't stop chasing memories
i can't ignore these casualties
fallacies come with ease off the tongue of the enemy
that voice keeps telling me
gotta find myself

cant keep living off and on
turn my head and all is gone
can't let it get the best of me no
time keeps ticking on and on
turn my head and all is gone
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
night falls no sleep
start to flow heat
straight to my veins
eliminate the pain
the warm feeling healing my soul
dealing control
sanctuary necessary to let go
and before i die heal myself inside
and before i die kill myself insice
gotta find myself

[chorus]
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
cant let go
no way stay clear never back trak
keep you head on straight
know where your hearts at
stay real to yourself
never give up you get up find yourself inside
youself
time marches on and on
and still the same old song
boredom perpetuates stagnation which creates
confusion in you head
depression that you dread
so check that mental health
you got to gree yourself now
gotta find myself

[chorus]

cant let it get the best of me no
cant let it get the best of me no
cant let it get the best of me no
cant let it get the best of me no
3rd Strike Flow Heat

3rd Strike - City's On Fire

cuz the F-A-C-T of the matter's

everyone for themselfes
that's they way it's gotta be
dont think twice in this false paradise
one step ahead

notter than the flames of hell
straight scorching me torchin' me

the town's a slaughter house and we're the fucking cattle

[chorus]

i tell you brother you were gone from the gate
just another kid swallowed by the streets
and retired
i can smell the smoke shit my city's on fire
we were cursed from birth incarceration planet earth
sentencedto die and smile on the face of the outcry
criminal minded blinded i'm barely getting by reminded
constantly i'm nowhere
that i want to be
cuz it's real in this battle field
no where to run
no where to hide
eventually the other side will catch me slippin' on the trip wire

shit my city's on fire
i can smell the smoke
3rd Strike City's On Fire

everyday steady dying lord
but still we live so confused abused
and still insanity seems the only way that i can feel humanity

breath it out
or we sink so far down
so far down
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
fool you kill your brother
and you think that makes you a man
try to tell his mother why she'll never see her son again
fucking coward go hid behind your false pride
street talking facade helps you justify this genocide
that's the card you deal
to hide the pain you feel
claimin' homey love but i'm telling you it isn't real
no ones got your back when its time for you to go
cuz when you leave this world
you'll be going out alone

[chorus]

3rd Strike - Blind My Eyes

the blind leads the blind
one voice one mind
guess you bought the facade
so give up you soul to the TV god now
no struggle no fight
when you're told what is wrong and told what is right
not a thought not a peep
cuz you have no say in the land of the sheep
cant think for yourself
lie down get beat
by the media's primary function
brainwash the masses death and destruction
burn my eyes till my sight is blurred
herd the flock where the flock cant be heard
land of the sheep home of the slave
one foot in the grave no we cant be saved
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
they blind mye eyses gear of my mind
resist the system light up let it burn
they blind my eyes for fear of my mind
wont submit to my suicide

ignorance breeds ignorance
amidst all the pain
anger guilt and shame
violence seems the american dream
its playing 24-7 on the silver screen
targed our childern
product to sell
no rehabilition
crime vacation
land of the sheep lost generation
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
[chorus]

3rd Strike Blind My Eyes

3rd Strike - All Lies

catholic faith, american pride, marital vows, the perfect bride
fallin' in love, trust in man, someday you'll understand
blood runs deeper, equal rights, follow me you're safe tonight
plastic smile, her tear filled eyes
all of these are fucking lies

everything that i have seen in my life leaves me blind
all are fuckin' lies

knight in shining armore karma
dishonor heaven and hell and nirvana
promises perfect and serve believe in me
you have my word
A.D.D. conversing up assassinations beginners luck
brother love caucasian christ
all of these are fucking lies

[chorus]

fallacies have blackened my soul
and i burn because i feel controlled
so i do what i gotta do
voice my hatred love has faded
jaded by the world that i'm living in
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
fuck no i ain't that nodel citizen
just a hood tryin' to get the dividend
seeing right throught those
they just want to keep us down in this life
so we have no insight to what the fuck is really going on
on the inside
desensitized to neutalize
so there'll be no resistance aimed at their existence
for instance nine to five slave
presistence
brain washing billboards make for big business
subliminal visuals criminal individuals
suits and ties disguise the lies they advertise
i'm checking the damage they've done it's like i'm starin'n at the sun
burnin'
turning my heart into stone left me
alone in this battle zone
there aint no way out
you gotta pay out with
damnation or pacification

[chorus]

so in the fucking mind you're dead
and now that you're alone you want to be my friend to
foe

lying bruised and beat
kicked to the curb

[chorus]
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
striving forever to find who i am

on the brink of a break down
no love found in my soul
straight from the get go
nothing left in this heart
just a motherfucking stab in the back
back in my life

filled with hate
nothing else to say

10000 Maniacs - Time Turns

you were envy you wouldn't say you tore heart strings
that sorry day dark light hid the tears one for each of the years
love has reasons reason never knows
time turns over love overflows I should have spoken sooner
on that sorry day your arms are open
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
and I wondered why
wondered why
five years passed to the day time heals some people say
when you hurt the ones I love you're also hurting me
and time turns over turning you from me I thought you'd never reach me
on that sorry day your arms were open wide and I wondered why

10000 Maniacs - The Earth Pressed Flat

first time o'er the ocean on a plane a billion stars below me lay,
circle slowly JFK,
so much there to see inside of a week they came looking for something new
try to press it flat inside of a few days Old Dominion Saturday,
Arlington's eternal flame Sunday tour Niagara Falls in the mist.
Monday I'll be heading south New Orleans the Cajun sound
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
Tuesday's Tupelo Elvis's home . . .
try to press it flat inside of a few days what a wonderful stay,
on a mule Grand Canyon ride on Wednesday,
hope to get to Denver in a day Friday ride to Washington,
in the glacial mountain sun hop a train for Canada
to the east they came looking for something new
try to press it flat inside of a few days what a wonderful stay

10000 Maniacs - Somebody's Heaven

so fickle tempting me teasing my ways thrown from

http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
Absalom hanging like you I'm caught in between heaven
then earth then heaven between you release me untangle my hair
Absalom hanging like you I'm caught in between heaven
then earth heaven between you patient I wait
as I hold a small feather that floated from somebody's heaven

10000 Maniacs - Smallest Step

when the valley is shrouded in snow,
when you're feeling that hope somewhere vanished
and there's no poetry left to console you,
with the smallest step you'll find a way oh of fate borne
and life is a jewel but stone will tarnish as dust will descend take a minute
and wipe free the lustre,
it'll mirror a day without end with the smallest step you'll feel
it starts a journey your way.
oh they tried to tell me but I'll learn for myself
and when they tried to tell me you know the words disappeared
on the wind I was running away
and when the laughter echoes through you in a pale beaming ray
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
and you'll know always and ever within you anyway
10000 Maniacs Smallest Step

10000 Maniacs - Rainy Day

Touched the bottom, the night a sleepless day instead;
a day when love came, came easy like what's lost now found.
Beneath a blinding light that would surround.
We were without, in doubt, we were about saving for a rainy day.
I crashed through floors of laughter, then.
In a blind science, no ties would moor us to this room.
A day when love came, came easy like what's lost now found.
And you would save me, and I held you like you were my child.
If I were you, defiant you, alone upon a troubled way.
I would send my heart to you to save it for a rainy day.

10000 Maniacs - Once A City

but these complications now make life a bit uneasy hallowed buildings scrape
the sky voices ride the airwaves once a city years gone
by will they still be standing in the centuries ahead going
underground little children hiding,
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
bullets never meant for them must there be such bloodshed in our hearts,
our homes, our heads? will I be walking, walking so free?
this was a city once this was once a city harmony a common theme
but these complications once a city, once a dream

10000 Maniacs - On And On

looking back at me back through the foggy window
on and on miles pass years turn over
on and on there from that rolled down window ponies run free
cradled protectively there in the greenery somewhere I keep this picture
on and on miles pass years turn over
on and on for all the roads we've travelled
and all the bridges burned I was thinking out loud the ways
of the world that all seem so constant how few
of the lessons we really have learned.
out through the foggy window frozen in frame capturing passing pictures
life's last refrain, memories ashes scatter
on and on miles pass years turn over

10000 Maniacs - More Than This

There was no way of knowing
Fallen leaves in the night
Who can say where they're blowing
As free as the wind
And hopefully learning
Why the sea on the tide
Has no way of turning
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
More than this - there is nothing
More than this - tell me one thing
More than this - there is nothing

It was fun for a while
There was no way of knowing
Like a dream in the night
Who can say where we're going
No care in the world
Maybe I'm learning
Why the sea on the tide
Has no way of turning

10000 Maniacs - Love Among The Ruins

When danger crashes, rose from the ashes.
Like two statues hidden inside ancient rock,
we were praying for the secrets to unlock.
And when the sun had turned its back on us,
in the dark our love kept track of us, pushed together by the lack of love.
We held each other tightly through our hell of dreams.
I still hear the never-endig echo of those screams.
But it's a life not made for reliving, it's a life that makes your soul forgiving.
We sealed our bond from the beginning.
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
Aching, affection, vulnerable protection; falling, captured, crawling, rapture.

10000 Maniacs - In The Quiet Morning

There was much despair
And in the hours that followed
No one could repair
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
That poor girl
Tossed by the tides of misfortune
Barely here to tell her tale
Rolled in on a sea of disaster
Rolled out on a mainline rail

She once walked tight at my side
I'm sure she walked by you
Her striding steps could not deny
Torment from a child who knew

That in the quiet morning
There would be despair
And in the hours that followed
No one could repair
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
That poor girl
She cried out her song so loud
It was heard the whole world round
A symphony of violence
The great southwest unbound

10000 Maniacs - Hidden In My Heart

I see a door standing open, open to curiosity we could be together tear
it all apart would you ever notice what was hidden in my heart
heartstrong do we ever listen closely
as willows start to weep there as we stood upon the threshold
who said forever was for keeps?
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
would you ever notice what was hidden in my heart,
my deep heart is reeling forward and steady on to keep,
who made me miss the last ferry?
who made this river so deep?

10000 Maniacs - Green Children

The strangest sight there alone they stood,
with skin of green and words no one had heard.
The girl was stronger, the boy was weak,
with her new mother she learned to speak.
And wove a tale of a dying sun, they had left darkness,
a dark world come undone.
They travelled so far. Believing they came from a star.
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
She fell through life, through time, through parallel lives.
The men of science, the men of fame, the men of letters tried to explain:
Was it parallel worlds or a twist of time to make her
think she'd fallen from the sky?
A whirlwind spun them all alone, took them from their twilight home.
Believing they came from a star.
10000 Maniacs Green Children

10000 Maniacs - Glow

I would meet you without question to share a starry gaze
a look through the sky from the start there was this kind of glow the start

fascinating love's a secret an ancient riddle with no reason
or rhyme unpredictable the muses
they play never knowing whether teasing or shy

10000 Maniacs - Girl On A Train

Captured in his artist way before the memories fade away.
To remember a face, and you're home or want to.
Certain they would meet soon, paint a portrait of a family.
Sigle light on, single way, single light away.
The night fell.
Saw a painting on the stairwell to mourn the passing of a daughter dear.
Her soul upon the train so far so near.

10000 Maniacs - Even With My Eyes Closed

Young girl in my young girl days, thinking I could live for always.
But like an ocean tide, I'm drawn back inside and I know.
Seasons pass like sand inside a glass and nothing, nothing returns.
Standing with the friends I've made, I'll race them to the grave.
Well who won, won the extra days?
When you take away the years toll on the waters wide, shallow high and low.
In the autumn sky, happy to know I'm going home.

10000 Maniacs - Ellen

that he was though his attempts there falling short,
expectation see he would tell of all his conquests, was he bragging?
but in the evening all alone Ellen unplanned delays saving for someone
who really cared about you invincible
they say married to your name she was the kind between a child and a lady,
quick was her temper like a blaze from an ember no one had measured
to her standard, so in the evening all alone all alone how do I tell them
to open their minds and to take a chance maybe on finding
life's treasure stubborn they stay set in their ways really not wanting
to be lonely not alone http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com

10000 Maniacs - Cabaret

at my legs drunk and giddy full of fate at the cabaret smokey stares
from the bar do stray bottles tumble I feel the misty spray what a perfect,
perfect day for the cabaret from afar he sees Venus rise
overwhelmingly beautiful he sighs the look of love was in her eyes
puts his hand upon her leg looking closer his lust begins to fade "what a drag,
" the queen did say. could this be a dream I'm in?
Fellini would be proud. gluttony enfolds the scene "give them one last round"
shining faces dance away swinging skirts between the panted legs
kaleidescoping then shassez in a blink the glasses fly suddenly joy
becomes a fight there they tossed and turned a sight

10000 Maniacs - Big Star

Turn the tables on me, what would happen if I fell to the tune of a dreamer,
to the tune of my heart?
A big start running from me, I saw a world out sunning on my head.
Turn the tables on me now. I would fall from heaven and ring your bell.
Baby, catch me in the middle of a lie.
The boys are out tonight, yeah the boys are out tonight.
The big shots singin' from me, I saw a world out sunning on my head.
Pity my heart signals: center of a storm inside my head.
Center of my heart, center of my out of time simple mind.
From the moon out my window a wink and a blink and a nod.
Had a wish on a start but now it's falling.
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
The boys are out tonight, big skies above me signal in my horoscope it said:
never heed a caution, never fought a lover,
never cross a street alone in the middle of a signal red,
middle of a drinker's heart, middle of a big parade, a signal in my horoscope.

10000 Maniacs - Beyond The Blue

what you left me out there in the cold days fading away
I see you so near I hear your voice calling
it calls me from these pages to you beyond the blue,
so sudden too soon the secrets we knew
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
I was thinking today if you would surrender to feelings
that you tried deserting and if given the choice
I'd still wait for the moment still wait for the moment
when I could have a hero like you days fading away

10000 Maniacs - All That Never Happens

A year had changed her forever, just like her grey home.
He used to live so close here, we'd look for places I can't remember.
The world was safe when she knew him, she tried to hold him, hold on forever.
For all that never happens and all that never will be,
a candle burning for the love we seldom keep.
The earth was raw in her fingers, she overturned it.
Considered planting some flowers, they wouldn't last long,
no one to tend them. It's funny how these things go,
you were the answer to all the questions.
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
The memories made her weary, she shuddered slowly, she didn't want to.
As a distant summer he began to whisper, and threw a smile her way.
She looked into the glass, liquid surface showing that they were melding,
together present past.
So where can I go from here?
The color fading, he didn't answer.
She felt him slip from her vision.
She tried to hold him, hold on forever.
So close forever, in a silent frozen sleep.

10000 Maniacs - Across The Fields

http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
of wings in the light moved together. In the colors
of the morning I looked to the clouds in the cirrus sky and they'd gone.
Across the marshes, across the fields below.
I fell through the vines and I hoped they would catch me below.
If only to take me with them there,
tell me the part that shines in your heart on the wind.
And the reeds blew me in the morning.
Take me along to the places you've gone when my eyes looked away.
Tell me the song that you sing in the trees in the dawning.
Tell me the part that shines in your heart and the rays of love forever,
please take me there.

10000 Maniacs - A Room For Everything

Colors spilling, running dazzling you.
I was looking the other way, voices call from the east,
I saw my roots of the trees there planted at my feet.
It could be I'm searching for a place so small with room for everything
where worlds on worlds revolve.
But how can we wait? I wouldn't hold you back.
Suppose I was the clever one and words came easy to me.
I could say I was writing a song about you and me.
Maybe that verse is yet to be found, but waits inside of me,
a secret room a tangled web to unweave.
But how can we wait knowing our ways, how can we hold on,
still you know it's not too late.

10000 Maniacs - Who Knows Where The Time Goes

But how can they know it's time for them to go?
Before the winter fire, I will still be dreaming
I have no thought of time
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
For who knows where the time goes?
Who knows where the time goes?

Sad, deserted shore, your fickle friends are leaving
Ah, but then you know it's time for them to go
But I will still be here, I have no thought of leaving
I do not count the time

For who knows where the time goes?
Who knows where the time goes?

And I am not alone while my love is near me
I know it will be so until it's time to go
So come the storms of winter and then the birds in spring again
I have no fear of time
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
For who knows how my love grows?
And who knows where the time goes?

40 Below Summer - Suck It Up

One more time to dig into my skin
You'll ignite so I can burn again
Sick like that - you'd better walk away
And set to snap - before I demonstrate
Played on this, you split me open
Preyed on this raw emotion
And force - feed me till I'm bloated
And swallow these open throated
I can't feel this way - so ordinary
Wrapped in all this pain - distorted every day
And I can't breathe - you've suffocated me and all my needs
And I can't scream again
Break me down - I'm breaking mentally
Break me down - I'm breaking everyday
Cover me - yes, I've had enough
Smother me - you better let me up
Eyes on this - psycho explosion
Your silent wish for my erosion
Bent on determination
And mental evisceration
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
I can't feel this way - so ordinary
Wrapped in all this pain - distorted every
Day and I can't breathe - you've suffocated
Me and all my
Why can't you leave me alone (no way)
Stripping me down to the bone (don't say) [repeat]
Force-fed and inbred and stunted,
Y'all made me feel so unwanted
Get off my case fore i make you-
Get out my face fore i break you.
Stain, change, range (suck it up)
Maim, aim, blame (suck it up)
Vacate now (suck it up) -
Take you out
I can't feel this way - so ordinary
Wrapped in all this pain - distorted every
Day and I can't breathe - you've suffocated
Me and all my needs
And I can't scream again
Again again again (suck it up)
Again again again (lick it)
Again again again (suck it up)
Again again again!

40 Below Summer - Taxi Cab Confession

where we are unstoppable
Inhale and let the smoke fill your lungs and breath the impossible
And as we follow these foot prints a new world will begin
Can you feel it my brother-it's time to repent
Now can I get an amen! Why don't you come and ride with me
I can feel your pain, If you let me I'll save your soul
I'll take you away if you're with me
I'll make you whole amen
Now can I get an amen
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
And as we slowly separate from our worldy desires
we think the unthinkable
And we will swim together through the fire for we are unsinkable
And if you follow this path a new life will begin
Can you hear it my children it's time to confess
now, can I get an amen?
Confess, confess, digest and you will be saved by this

40 Below Summer - Still Life

And break me here through the pavement
And I can trust in the silence
And I'll adjust to the violence...
Inside... I can't deny... I've burned
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
Alive in pain - but without you
I'll go insane reaching out to
I'm almost gone - but believe me
I feel so wrong

I can't believe what you've done to me
(Would you cut me - if you love me)
I can't believe this was meant for me
(Don't you touch me - don't you push me)
I can't believe what you've done to me
(Would you cut me now)
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
Life! (Life) It passed away (Wrong)
Another chance at this life but it passed away (I'm so alone)

40 Below Summer - Step Into The Sideshow

And please allow me to demonstrate
As you step into the rear of the sideshow bus
Strap it on cuz it's time to get a head rush
Twist the cap and tap the bottle
That's my motto - here it comes full throttle
Straight up at ya from 40 Below
Freezing - you're bleeding as you feel the winds blow

Can not stop this, you can not break this, you can not crush this
Get your ass out the way

I see you shakin cuz the time's up
wreck that ass with my starting line-up
Bolos and body blows, hooks and haymakers
re-animate, suffocate your breath taker
Kick down your doors - excuse the intrusion
swift and clean over the execution
Quick get shot - you're rocked - it'll bend you over
This is the sideshow, bitch - I thought I told ya
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
Can not stop this, you can not break this, you can not crush this
Get your ass out the way

You can't escape the disease of the freeze -
of the sideshow release - come and bring you to your knees
This is the last straw - I can't control, I explode
Now I got you in a choke hold
You can't try to get off - you'll get lost - you'll get tossed
when I'm up in your face full force
You can't try to get passed - you won't last
It's your ass - when I rip you in half
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
I know I ignite like a pyro - burn inside so
Step into the sideshow
I know - gonna go psycho - might go
Step into the sideshow
I know I ignite like a pyro - make em burn when they
Step into the sideshow
Gonna cut em in half really tight - so kickin your ass when ya
Step into the sideshow
Don't get me hot - you'll catch a right cold - check the eyes, bro
Step into the sideshow
Punk suck - gonna front on the ride - motherfucker
Step into the sideshow
I'm bringin all the pain straight out
40 Below Summer Step Into The Sideshow

40 Below Summer - Self Medicate

Can you fix yourself, fill yourself, trust yourself
Cloud your vision
And just medicate yourself and just separate yourself
And just medicate yourself and you'll never change yourself
Will you hesitate, penetrate, deviate
Will you medicate, agitate, aggravate
Indecision
Can you fill this deep inside
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com

40 Below Summer - Rope

I guess it always seems that something in this life is diseased
But guess what I know - Here's something you can't devour
It's something moving with the tide and now it's ripping you from inside

Follow me into the Abyss of the windfall that's tearing you down
It's okay to believe that there's something in nothing now

I'm at the end of my rope
If I could give - I bet I would play dead
If I could live - I'd fall apart again
If I could fly - away from all this pain
If I could run - I'd crumble again
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
Please rewind - retrace your life - and then you'll find
That everything you learned in this - is just a pile of worthlessness
So suffocate - and maybe you can separate
And in the end - it's no surprise - that only in death will you realize

I'm at the end of my rope
If I could give - I bet I would play dead
If I could live - I'd fall apart again
If I could fly - away from all this pain
If I could run - I'd crumble again
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
If it's true - it's just to pass the time - just to pacify my mind to bind
You can't drive when your blind - and it burns your eyes
You can't hold me to a place in time - where I'm stuck behind
You can't climb out of the flood - the sign - listen to the lies that cut
You up inside - and the blood will stain our lives

If I could...
I'm at the end of my rope
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
If I could give more - yeah
If I could cut me in any way I could
If I could fly away
If I could run... If I could
40 Below Summer Rope

40 Below Summer - Rejection

Just one taste and I needed a little more of your sweet honey
I want you to feel my pain
I want you - don't walk away
I need you - the time is right
I need to hold you tight

Rejection - I can't believe you're gone
Rejection - why'd you have to walk away
Rejection - I can't believe you're gone
Rejection - now it's time to turn the page
Rejection - What the fuck did I do
Rejection - why'd you have to walk away
Rejection - you broke me in two
REJECTION - REJECTION

What the fuck did I do
What did I do to deserve the blame
Remember this, and don't forget my name
Handle this shit before I rope ya
I'm gonna slit your throat before I smoke ya
Bet it all - but you don't own me
You tried to punk me - but you don't know me
You tried to blow me off without no question
You better pray for divine intervention

You really didn't think I'd let you walk away from me
Just one more time - I need to feel your lips around this piece
If you could come my way - what could I do to make you stay
Then you could penetrate my life - then you'd rip me up inside

Rejection - I can't believe you're gone
Rejection - Why'd you have to walk away
Rejection - I can't believe you're gone
Rejection - Now it's time to turn the page
Rejection - What the fuck did I do
Rejection - Why'd you have to walk away
Rejection - you broke me in two
REJECTION - REJECTION
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
Pushing and crushing me - down on my knees
Taking and breaking - and making me scream
I can't contain this - I'll make you all bleed
You've opened me up - now you'll feel my disease
In my suffering (stop)
Suffering (dying too)
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
Even in my suffering - I'll make you believe
You can't believe I'll make you disappear
Occurred to me - and then it became clear
Rejected me - oh no, I don't think so
I'll take you out quick - don't even blink ..so
You cut me up and hung me out to dry
Got your itch - like a bitch - you made me cry...but
Retribution, confusion, illusion
hairline fracture, multiple contusion
.....don't walk away
.....just run away
40 Below Summer Rejection

40 Below Summer - Rain

I've gone too far I can't rectify this
I walk away falling into
It's such a shame how I'll miss you
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
I feel shot can you reach me
You cannot bring me back
And I'll always sink into nothing
And I'm on my knees again
And I can't believe that it's always
Under my skin
Don't leave me out, leave me hanging
Don't keep me down, down and dragging
You're so sure that I won't splinter
You're so good, you're so good
Shift time to come back in line
cause when I tried to embrace my life
Gonna dry up was it something you're fed
Got you sickened was it something I said
All it did was rain

40 Below Summer - Power Tool

I'm up inside - now I cannot hide
those burns on your skin
and the stains on your grin
I took your pain
now you're dropped again
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
I can't feel the way you want me to -
I'll use you, abuse you, conveniently lose you
I can't feel the way you want me to
It's just my power tool

Who takes your hand
who makes you dance
who's in your pants
your lover, player, president

I can't feel the way you want me to
I'll use you, abuse you, conveniently lose you
I can't feel the way you want me to
It's just my power tool
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
You lose - don't confuse - what I say
I took you - then threw you away
You're through - don't misconstrue - what I said
All I wanted was just a little head

I can't feel the way you want me to
I'll use you, abuse you
I'll use you, confuse you
I can't feel the way you want me to
It's just my power tool

40 Below Summer - Monday Song

Picture me above the sky on this half day closing
Ride the wave say goodnight drifting slowly
I see the world in your eyes it's relentless
When I feel the burn in my life God please end this
It's not so easy can you fix me and wipe it all away
Wipe it all away, you wash it all away
Picture me inside the sun, I'm dried and burning
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
As I sink like a stone the world keeps turning
I'll hold you close to myself you complete me
A part of my life I can't fill, please release me now
It's not so easy, and wipe it all away, can you fix me, and wipe it all away
So sadistic, and wipe it all away, how you'd bleed me, and wash it all away
Follow a heart in vain you follow and start again
Life is lost for me now

Fuck you - if you don't like this
You don't like this, bitch - you can bite this

40 Below Summer - Little Lover

Hellhound hellbound hot on ya trail
And hungry for the sound
Of ya cryin Cold shivers in the black said
I'll light the match I'm burnin hot
Like ya thermostats Overdose when I push up
Inside ride on a bed of fire baby
I can take you higher I like the way you cut me
I like the way you fuck me
I like the way ya tie me up I hope you like it rough
And you will fly with me you'll get high with me
You'll lay down with me you'll cry out loud with me [x2]
Again cold chills up and down your spine
Don't mind when I come from behind
I see you laid back in ecstasy as I eat you alive
And hit it like a landmine oh woman you're so fine fine fine
And your all mine I want to tease you I want to please you I want
To burn you and I want to bleed you
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
And you will fly with me you'll get high with me

You shiver and shake and quake and break like no other
Little lover yeah little lover.
Shiver and shake and quake
Shiver and shake and quake and break

40 Below Summer - Jonesin

Cut you and hold you in place - as I rip you apart
This blood on my face - but I loved you so hard
I can't escape - I'm crawling inside
You can't erase - this night that you died
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
To blanket the obscure (I was the victim - you can't deny this)
To leave you enraptured (I was the victim - you can't deny this)
to open the obscene (blood on my hands - as I had to drive this)
Fade to wet dream (home)

I watched you die - shut up and stay there and bleed
As I open you up and I watch while you scream
I can't get enough of your face in my dreams
I'm raping you blind - you can't believe
This night that you died

So far away.............

40 Below Summer - I'm Still Bleeding

Where is the reason - where is the hope -
When all your life you're left hangin from a rope
Can I be saved - can I be cut loose -
Arms tied to my side swingin from this noose
Now it's getting heavy -
Now it's suffocating -
Cauterize my wounds
But I'm still bleeding
I'm still bleeding [x5]
And I pulled you closer for a sense of relief -
I've been crucified for all my beliefs
As I take this shotgun and put it in my mouth -
Set it to righten my sorrows and blast all the pain out
Now it pulls me under -
Now the pain it breeds
To stitch me closed -
But I still bleed
I'm still bleeding [repeat]
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
Open your eyes - lead me inside
And fall on a landslide - inside my hindsight [x2]
I'm still bleeding -
Won't you stitch me closed - don't ya know
I'm still bleeding from this open hole [x2]
I'm still bleeding, I'm still bleeding [x4]
Stitch me closed - cuz don't ya know
I'm still bleeding [x4]
BLEEDING BLEEDING BLEEDING

40 Below Summer - I'm So Ugly

Cause I'm a sideshow freak - a long legged geek
Gonna be feeling the flames and feel the heat of my pain
Now I know everybody hates me -
Tries to fake me and tries to degrade me
Ain't shit, never gonna be shit -
And I don't give a shit - not one little bit
Oh please, just shut the fuck up -
Why the hell are you so stuck up
Oh please, just leave me be -
I know but I can't believe that
I'm so ugly - nobody wants me -
I'm so ugly that nobody ever wants to touch me
I'm so ugly - nobody wants me -
I'm so ugly that nobody ever wants me
I shouldn't kill, but I will if I must -
I'm going off and I'm about to bust
In the dark - can't find my way -
And I wake up to it every single day
But I'll keep moving on -
Singing that same old song - Yo, I gotta be strong
I'll keep moving on -
Singing that same old song - for how long
Don't ya know that my life's killing me -
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
Don't ya know from before that I still bleed
Why can't you set me free -
You'll always see that
I'm so ugly - nobody wants me -
I'm so ugly that nobody ever wants to touch me
I'm so ugly - nobody wants me -
I'm so ugly that nobody ever me
Shut the fuck up - sit your ass down
It's my time bitch - eat your heart out [x2]
Shut the fuck up - sit your ass down
It's my time now eat your fucking heart out [x2]
I'm just one ugly mother fucker [x4]
I'm so ugly [x4]

40 Below Summer - Falling Down

Sun scorched and blistering (run) - do you know that it's all (gone)
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
Kiss my eyes shut to bash it in - it's just another payment
To how we live, how we dream, how we breed - low rent up in the basement
the sky conforms to the surface, what's the purpose, everything is worthless
I feel a crack in the structure - it's time bleed through suffer

And I fall into myself - I fall - I'm falling down
http://gepuh-mp3.blogspot.com
Life keeps on pushing me under (I am) ripping my whole world asunder (I can)
Death is what keeps me in motion (will I)
drown in this pain like an ocean

I'm falling down again (now) Into the ground again (low)

Don't tell me what to do when I take you - and I'm gonna make you
You had in a moment what the rest of us need to believe isn't hopeless
Take a look at the scoreboard - it's 1 nothing them - so I guess you need move more
We'll make a crack in the sun, if it feeds you the answer

And I fall into myself - I fall - I'm falling down

All in my head but the waiting is over
Your thoughts can't tread into my disclosure
I'm just a face - nameless and silent
I'm such a waste - that's why I...
And I can't erase - I'm feeling all this
I cannot frame and hide behind this (pain)
I did it one more time for you - and now I'm
Falling down again
40 Below Summer Falling Down
