You just gotta sit yourself down
To contemplate
You get yourself a nice cold beer
And drink yourself away
You're celebrating nothing
And you feel a-okay

And you feel a-okay
You think you're precious
And I think you're shit
And I'd kill your father
To destroy his seed
Ohhhh nothing will over
Destroy your greed
Chorus
Now when you break yourself down
And go to this place
You give yourself the reason
To get off your case
And when you break it down yeah
And see through this shit

To live through this
Break down

CAPTAIN BLIGH
I'll give you one good tiny reason think you could believe it
I'll give you one good tiny reason think you could see through it
I'm not the kind of man that thinks the truth could hurt me
I'm not the kind of man that thinks the truth can see me
You know a little bit goes a long way
You know a little bit lasts a long time
And the time has come to undo the wrong I've done
I am a grieving man
I can't believe the things I've done to you
I am a guilty man
And I can't believe the things I've done to you
I give you one good tiny reason to push that big suit too far
I give you one good tiny reason to smash him and his big car
Everybody thinks I'm blue and what
everybody think is true yeah
I just can't keep it inside
So you think it's you
So you think it's true
You know a little bit lasts a long time
You know a little bit goes a long way
And the time has come to undo the wrong I've done
I am a grieving man
I can't believe the things I've done to you
I am a guilty man
And I can't believe the things I've done to you
And I am a blood-snaked man
I can't belive the things I've done to you
I am a guilty man
I can't believe the things I've done to you
Amd I am a grieving man
I can't believe the things I've done to you
I am a beaten man
I can't believe the things I've done to you

SKINNY
So here you are in your small little world
Kept up like a little precious virgin girl
To hear 'bout your grace and your silly face
Wrapped up like a knot in a ball of shoelace
And everytime I talk to you
It sounds like you're caught in a psychological flu
Don't ever let them see you cheat
Don't ever let them see you bleed
Don't ever let them shake your hand
Don't ever let them believe that scam
Chorus:
Skinny
And it will make you cry
Skinny
And it will make you lie
Skinny
And it will make you soft inside
Skinny
At least you will not die
And if you take a good look at them
All caught up in their graciousless win
Every sin is their seamless smile
Will go on for a countless while
And just because they think they won
It just means that the shit has just begun
Don't ever let them see you cheat
Don't ever let them see you beat
Don't ever let them shake your hand
Don't ever let them believe that scam
Chorus
Yeah, skinny, skinny, huh
(8 times)
I WILL LEAD YOU
Come along take a ride 'cross the sky for an hour
Leave your mind take your soul fill the hole with flowers
From the lake through the trees in the streets for the podwer
In the creed for the freeze I gotta place for this power
'Cuz I am a lie
'Cuz I am a lie
Chorus:
I will lead you for awhile
Take you place to place
Bring you to this pyre
See you face to face
Come along to this flick take your simpathy with your simphony
See this dish a wonderful wish it's the perfect kiss it's the real thing
See the pitch it's the greatest of hits it's the missing with the wishing
At least you caught a smile when you coughed awhile when you did this kissing
'Cuz I am a lie
'Cuz I am a lie
Chorus
I will lead you
I will lead you
See you face to face
Face to face
See you face to face
Face to face
Yeah
See you face to face
Face to face
See you face to face
Yeah
CANCER
I cross the oceans
I cross the seas
I cross the mountains
Like a new disease
I cross the borders
I cross the line
Never to see the light
'Til the end pf time
I've seen the cayons
I've seen the cities
I've seen the prisons
That take such pity
When it comes to you
When it comes to me
It's just money
That'll set you free
Chorus:
Hey my children what seems important
Won't last forever
Hey my children what seems important
Won't last forever
Take a look at the Earth
From a plane
You'll see the Earth
Cut up and in pain
Take a look at L.A.
From the sky
What you see
Should make you cry
Chorus
I'm the sum of the Earth...
I am a cancer...
I am humanity...

MISS BLUE
Could you stay long enough for me to say goodbye
You can be free as long as you're with me
If you could see the real me you'd bleed
If I could see the real me I'd breathe
Could you still breathe long enough for me
Could you still be long enough for me
Chorus:
When do you think I'll be okay
When do you think I'll be okay
If you should stay when do I pray
If I should stay where do I begin
Do you think I should watch you die
Should we close our eyes and say goodbye
