Should Have Been Mine

Lyrics: D. Robin Dennis and Ryan Dennis

Music: Serial Joe

You shut me out

Don't hear a word, I'm sayin'

Just can't understand, this crazy game you're playin'

Need a little time to make it right

Wipe the tears from your eyes, if it takes all night

Look into my eyes

And see into my heart

'Cause the pain I see in you

Is tearin' me apart

Don't turn away, slip into yourself

Open the door and let me in

My mind is racin', tryin' find the answer

To this crazy game you're playin'

Look into my eyes

And see into my heart

'Cause the pain I see in you

Is tearin' me apart

Look into my eyes

And see into my heart

'Cause the pain I see in you

Is tearin' me apart

Let me change the way you feel

Look right through me and see nothing of what I see

With frustration at my side

All I want is to set you free

Look into my eyes

And see into my heart

'Cause the pain I see in you

Is tearin' me apart

Look into my eyes

And see into my heart

'Cause the pain I see in you

Is tearin' me apart

Deep

Lyrics: Dan Stadnicki

Music: Serial Joe

You hope that something will happen

But you're stuck with what you've got

In a maze you're lost, thinking of things that are not

Real enough to make things different

Though I don't know what it means

Confused and mixed up when everything's deep

And I don't know what it means

And I don't know why, I don't know why

What you got, serenity

What is not deep

Your mind is ripe, your mind is weak

Can't stop, it's just so deep

You change while everyone else is still the same

Therapy is quite the road to take

Especially when you're in such a state

That the ones you love are the ones you hate

You crack a smile when you don't understand

The touch of a loved one's hand

I don't know why,

Instead of laughing you sit there and cry

What you got, serenity

What is not deep

Your mind is ripe, your mind is weak

Can't stop, it's just so deep

And I don't know why

I don't know why

What you got, serenity

What is not deep

Your mind is ripe, your mind is weak

Can't stop, it's just so deep

Mistake

Lyrics: D. Robin Dennis and Ryan Dennis

Music: Serial Joe

Do you know how to find what you’re looking for?

Stuck in a maze of promises, don’t know what’s real or not

Promise you everything, I’ll never lie

Do you even know what it is you want?

So how can I even try?

It’s all a mistake

How long will it take?

When the dreams are all gone

How long till you wake?

It’s all a mistake

How long will it take?

When the dreams are all gone

How long till you wake?

Don’t know how it came to this

Just try to figure out what to do

How can he give you what you need

You think that I can not?

You’re in a state of mind games

This seems like a checkmate

None of us will win

And I don’t think I can wait

It’s all a mistake

How long will it take?

When the dreams are all gone

How long till you wake

It’s all a mistake

How long will it take?

When the dreams are all gone

How long till you wake

~ bridge ~

It’s all a mistake

How long will it take?

When the dreams are all gone

How long till you wake

It’s all a mistake

How long will it take?

When the dreams are all gone

How long till you wake

How long till you wake?

Face Down

Lyrics: Ryan Dennis

Music: Serial Joe

Lost amidst this false reality

Don't feel a thing anymore

You're on your knees and begging

Face down on the floor

You try to fade into the background

But you're always seen

Face down, hit the ground

You do know you can't stay here anymore

Crooked, tangled

A heap of nothingness

Lying there in shambles,

A burning ball of stress

You try to fade into the background

Afraid of the hunter

Face down, hit the ground

You know you can't stay here anymore

Silence comes,

Like darkness to the night

Alone and peaceful

There's no one to hurt you where you are now

Safe from evil

See the pain

Dwelling in your eyes

Won't be long now

You try to fade into the background

Afraid of the hunter

Face down, hit the ground

One last breath

Shallow

Lyrics: Dan Stadnicki & Ryan Dennis

Music: Serial Joe

So close yet so distant

Fading face embrace is resistant

Words kept hidden

And the shadows dark

Your forbidden heart is shallow

Your emotions are hollow

You haven't learned it's time

'Cause you ain't comin' back

It'll never be the same old song

It will never be the same

The cards are stacked

And time's run out

And everything's a game

So sing me your lullaby

'Cause I need to know why

Why I keep falling',

Keep fallin'

'Cause you ain't comin' back

You know you're shallow

Used to be on the top, but now you've dropped

Lost all your common sense

And now your brain's stopped

There nothing left in your mind except yourself

You gave it all up - your home, your friends, and your health

Now you're out on your own, you've lost your soul

Get a hold of yourself - know your role

So close yet so distant

Fading face embrace is resistant

Words kept hidden

And the shadows dark

Your forbidden heart is shallow,

Your emotions are hollow

You haven't learned it's time

'Cause you ain't comin' back

Ain't comin' back

Push

Lyrics: Ryan Dennis

Music: Serial Joe

Standing

In the corner of my mind

I try to run, but I'm so far behind

I don't know the meaning of this life anyway

I try to find a way to get around this place

I'm gonna face this head on

I'm gonna push until these chains are gone

Step into the doorway

Of this hole where I reside

I kick the wall down,

Step to the other side

I need the feeling of your calm embrace

I try to find the way to get around this place

I'm gonna face this head on

I'm gonna push until these chains are gone

I'm gonna face this head on

I'm gonna push until these chains are gone

I'm gonna face this head on

I'm gonna push until these chains are gone

I'm gonna face this head on

I'm gonna push until these chains are gone

Sanity

Lyrics: Ryan Stever & D. Robin Dennis

Music: Serial Joe

I still don't know

What you mean to me

But I'm gonna lose my cool

You better go

'Cause I'm going crazy

I think I'm losin' all my sanity

We're goin' all the way down

To the end of our sanity

Blowin' it straight down

To the end of my sanity

I start to hear things

In my head

And try to block 'em out

You still can't run, there's nowhere to hide

'Cause it's the end of my sanity

We're goin' all the way down

To the end of our sanity

Blowin' it straight down

To the end of my sanity

We're goin' all the way down

To the end of our sanity

Blowin' it straight down

To the end of my sanity

Feel it slip away yeah,

But I can't turn back now

Feel it slip away

But I can't turn back now

Feel it slip away yeah,

But I can't turn back now

I can't turn back now,

Won't turn back

Centipede

Lyrics: Dan Stadnicki & Ryan Dennis

Music: Serial Joe

Ya keep on losing your mind

I'm afraid I can't say the same

Complicated reasons are why

I'm not the one who is left to blame

Your constant crap is what I'm left to use

Can't take this kind of senseless abuse

You're left with nothing else to say

Co-ordinations not the only simple way

(Squirm, squirm)

Go home and don't come back

(Squirm, squirm)

Go home and don't come back

(Squirm, squirm)

Go home and don't come back

(Squirm, squirm)

Go home and don't come back

Look at you, you little dirty mindless wreck

Worthless as a minor tiny insect

Crush your body, you're a centipede

Your mixed up yeah,

So reach inside and bleed and bleed

Surely you won't mess with me

I'm telling you this ain't hostility

Confused your judgment, it's insanity

Your jaded by your own immunity

(Squirm, squirm)

Go home and don't come back

(Squirm, squirm)

Go home and don't come back

(Squirm, squirm)

Go home and don't come back

(Squirm, squirm)

Go home and don't come back

Confused your judgment, it's insanity

Your jaded by your own immunity

Confused your judgment, it's insanity

Your jaded by your own immunity

Confused your judgment, it's insanity

Your jaded by your own immunity

Confused

Lyrics: Dan Stadnicki & Ryan Dennis

Music: Serial Joe

You back track, everybody knows just that

You're paranoid about the things that just don't cut it flat

Quit your pullin' all the tricks from you sleeve

But only God knows what the hell you mean

Stare out my window at the broken streets below

Feel the angst within me - soon I'm gonna blow

Got a rage built up inside of me I'll never show

Love to stay and chat but I gotta go

You second guess your life

Tryin' to make it all fit

Gotta stop your beggin'

And be more sure of it

Inquisitive minds wanna interfere

Try n' figure out what the hell I'm doin' here

Turn around the corner it's a brand new day

Strange the way today seems just like yesterday

Try your best to free yourself from anxiety

Livin' for today, you gotta make it your priority

Complicated,

Mind all faded

And a part of you,

Lost and jaded

Complicated,

Mind all faded

And a part of you,

Lost and jaded

Complicated,

Mind all faded

And a part of you,

Lost and jaded

Complicated,

Mind all faded

And a part of you,

Lost and jaded

Complicated,

Mind all faded

And a part of you,

Lost and jaded

Complicated,

Mind all faded

And a part of you,

Lost and jaded

Complicated,

Mind all faded

And a part of you,

Lost and jaded

Complicated,

Mind all faded

And a part of you,

Lost and jaded

Outrage

Lyrics: Dan Stadnicki & Ryan Dennis

Music: Serial Joe

You wanna take it to the next level

Walkin' among the street and burn like the devil

I don't know what's causin' your rage

Everybody wants to know why, 'cause it's an outrage

Listen up or pay the price, don't know what's nice

You know it ain't right

Madness and hate, you fill your veins

I know you're different 'cause now it's not the same (huh)

Your recklessness caused you pain

Unfair game or runaway train, barely tamed

Should have been cooped up in a cage

'Cause it's an outrage, listen up, that's the way!

Your recklessness caused you pain

Unfair game or runaway train, barely tamed

Should have been cooped up in a cage

'Cause it's an outrage, listen up, that's the way!

Night is clear, got no fear

But you're scared to tears

What's up with that ya hear

I don't listen to your problems

'Cause I can't solve 'em

And you know that fact be true

I should have left you astray

But I don't have my way, 'cause it's an outrage

You know it's an outrage

Your recklessness caused you pain

Unfair game or runaway train, barely tamed

Should have been cooped up in a cage

'Cause it's an outrage, listen up, that's the way!

Your recklessness caused you pain

Unfair game or runaway train, barely tamed

Should have been cooped up in a cage

'Cause it's an outrage, listen up, that's the way!

~solo~

Your recklessness caused you pain

Unfair game or runaway train, barely tamed

Should have been cooped up in a cage

'Cause it's an outrage, listen up, that's the way!

Your recklessness caused you pain

Unfair game or runaway train, barely tamed

Should have been cooped up in a cage

'Cause it's an outrage, listen up, that's the way!

Denial

Lyrics: D. Robin Dennis & Ryan Dennis

Music: Serial Joe

Yo and I bring it around again with a fresh flow

Low blow, Tippin' ya over like a deck of cards

I'll tell you where you are, stuck at the starting line with

nothing left to say,

Your ends unravel and your tips they start to fray

You think you know me, you're inside of my head

But you ain't understood one single word that I have said

Follow the leader is the name of the game you play

You wanna be takin' it but I'm gonna have my own way

Erase the face of your enemies

The right is mine yeah deny this

Erase the face of your enemies

The right is mine try 'n deny this

Take it down, you've got that look on your face

You think you're up there but you don't even know your place

You think you're something, make me do what you will

But I ain't buyin' you know that I have had my fill

See your body fallin', deeper in a hole

It's all over now you've gotta reach inside your soul

Fightin' to control

Denying what you know

The war inside your brain

Is like a sound insane

Erase the face of your enemies

The right is mine yeah deny this

Erase the face of your enemies

The right is mine try 'n deny this

Erase the face of your enemies

The right is mine yeah deny this

Erase the face of your enemies

The right is mine try 'n deny this

Erase the face of your enemies

The right is mine yeah deny this

Erase the face of your enemies

The right is mine try 'n deny this

Erase the face of your enemies

The right is mine yeah deny this

Erase the face of your enemies

The right is mine try 'n deny this
