TORN

�

�� Peace is what they tell me, Love am I unholy, Lies are what they tell me, Despise you that control me,

�� The peace is dead in my soul, and I have blamed the reason for my intentions poor, Yes I"m the one who, the only one who, would carry on this far,

�� Torn I'm filthy, born in my own misery, Stole all that you gave ,e. Control you claim you save me, the peace is dead in my soul, I have blamed the reason for my intentions poor, Yes I'm the one who, the only one who, could carry on the far.

MY OWN PRISON

�� A court is in session, a verdict is in, no appeal on the docket today, just my own sin, The walls are cold and pale, the cage made of steel,� screams fill the room, alone I drop and kneel,

�� Silence now the sound, my breath the only motion around, Demons cluttering around, my face showing no emotion, shackled by my sentence, expecting no return, here there is no penance, my skin begins to burn,

�� So I held my head up high, Hiding hate that burns inside, which only fuels their selfish pride, we're all held captive, out from the sun, a sun that shines on only some, we the meek are all in one

�� I hear a thunder in the distance, See a vision of a cross, I feel the pain that was given on that sad day of loss, a lion roars in the darkness only he holds the key, a light to free me from my burden, and grant me life eternally,

�� Should have been dead on a Sunday morning, banging in my head, no time for mourning, ain't' got not time

�� I cry out to god seeking only his decision, Gabriel stands and confirms I've created my own prison,

�� I cry out to god seeking only his decision, Gabriel stands and confirms I've created my own prison.

� So I held my head up high, Hiding hate that burns inside, which only fuels their selfish pride, we're all held captive, out from the sun, a sun that shines on only some, we the meek are all in one,

�� Should have been dead on a Sunday morning, banging in my head, no time for mourning, ain't' got not time.

PITY FOR A DIME

�� An artificial season, Covered by summer rain, Losing all y reason, cause there's nothing left to blame, Shadows paint the side walk, a living picture in a frame, See the sea of people, all their faces look the same,

�� So I sat down for awhile, forcing a smile, in a state of self denial, is it worthwhile,

�� Sell my pity for a dime just one dime, Sell my pity for a dime, just one dime,

�� Plain talk can be the east way, signs of losing my faith

�� So I sat down for a while, forcing a smile, In a state of self-denial, is it worthwhile,

�� Sell my pity for a dime, just one dime, Sell my pity for a dime, just one dime,

IN AMERICA

�� Only in America, we're slaves to be free, Only in America, we kill the unborn to make ends meet, Only in America, Sexuality is democracy, Only in America we stamp our god, "In God We Trust

�� What is right or wrong, I don't' know who to believe in, My soul sings a different song in America,

�� Church bell's ringing, pass the plate around, the choir is singing, as their leader falls to the ground, hey Mr. prophet man, tell me which way to go, I gave my last dollar, can I still come to your show?,

�� What is right or wrong, I don't' know who to believe in, My soul sings a different song in America,

�� I am right, and you are wrong, I am right and you are wrong, I am right and you are wrong,� No one's right and No one's wrong in America

WHAT'S THIS LIFE FOR?

�� Hurray for a child that makes it through, if there's anyway, because the answer lies in you, They're laid to rest before they know just what to do, their souls are lost because they could never find,

�� What's this life for,

�� I see your soul, it's kind of gray, You see my wrist, I know your pain, I know your purpose on your plane, don't' say a last prayer, because you could never find,

�� What's this life for?

�� But they ain't here anymore, don't have to settle the score, cause we all live under the reign of one King,

�� But they ain't here anymore, don't have to settle no god-damned score, cause we all live under the reign of one King.

ONE

�

�� Affirmative may be justified, take from one five to another, the goal is to be unified, take my hand be my brother, the payment silence the masses, sanctified by oppression, unity took a back seat sliding further in regression

�� One, oh one, the only was is one, I feel angry, I feel helpless, want to change the world yeah, I feel violent, I feel alone, don't try to change my mind

�� Society blind by color, why hold down one to raise another, discrimination now on both sides, seeds of hate blossom further, the world is heading for mutiny, when all we want is unity, we may rise and fall, but in the end, we meet our fate together,

�� One, oh one, the only was is one, I feel angry, I feel helpless, want to change the world yeah, I feel violent, I feel alone, don't try to change my mind.
