Here's The LYRICS any other tabs are listed already if you want them from me e-mail me
_______________________________________________________________________

Slave 

Lived too long now you've come to take me to a place where I can die.
Lost my soul lost my confidence in me Can't be something but I'll try.
Lived too long and I waited to just drown In my self pity I keep falling down

Want to be your soldier,Want to be your slave I have no pride in myself

Only book that I own is called "How to Lose" ,pick a chapter I know them all just choose
Lived too long and I waited to find a place where I can die,
Lost my soul lost my confidence in me Give me something but I'll try.

Want to be your soldier,Want to be your slave, I have no pride in myself,
that's how I behave.
________________________________________________________________________

Freak 

No more maybes, Your baby's got rabies, sitting on a ball, in the middle of the Andes
Yeah im a freak of nature, Yeah im a freak,if only i could only be as cool as you, as cool as you 
Body and soul im a freak, im a freak ,Body and soul im a freak 
Try to be different well get a different disease seems it's in fashion to need the cold sore creme

i dont really know how to put on a good show as boring as they come just tell me where to go   if only i could only be as cool as you,  freak.
________________________________________________________________________

ABUSE ME 

need to ask a question calling out my name nothing seems to bother wish i had a clue
come on abuse me more i like it 
well i don't think you like me well i hate you as well no one seems to like you wish i couldnt tell
come on abuse me more i like it come on keep talking cause it's true
come on abuse me more i like it come on keep talking cause it's true

throw the sailors overboard 
________________________________________________________________________

lie to me 

gonna be a liar lie to me yeah
gonna be while lie to me yeah
________________________________________________________________________

No Association

You've never wanted to know me before little or no association leave me alone i wanna live stop sucking the blood right out of me 
couldnt care less if i died right now who am i i don't know you tell me you seem to know everything else 
need a pathway need a guide contemplating suicide wish i could be like you you say you care but do you do you 
burn
________________________________________________________________________

Cemetery 

need a change  not to imitate but to irritate all the ones who hate 
i may be late always seem to get the wrong  date well i guess it's fate 
i live in a cemetery full of good will and integrity you see i have no specialty
Here's your warning I'll give you click click boom
 
i live in a cemetery I need a change not to imitate but to irritate
 
I live in a cemetery
________________________________________________________________________

The Door 

Could've been like before Could've had to lock the door 

Make your mind let the door let the door swing
only one only one to let the door 

wanted to pretend he's dead Didn't have to pretend

All this and more makes no sense to me
all this and more makes me drown

let me know if it's airtight let me know if you just might
________________________________________________________________________

pop song for us rejects 

addiction's held you back but you don't care 
'Cause your on a high again and its not fair 
consuming alcohol while i gotta drive 
take a hit from the drugs you stole try to survive 

since your life was over you haven't yet been sober 
you you have held me back so long 
everything you do is wrong

now i gotta dump you  continue my life too
I tried to help you Don't care what you do.

Your state of mind improved but we're still apart 
I visited you'd moved Don't know where to start 
your life's an open cold sore gotta get out the creme 
now im thinking positive but i know its a dream

you died yesterday 
_______________________________________________________________________

Learn to Hate 

I wanted to be friends with her too 
so my relationship could be the same as yours 
I hated everyone just like you 
Hating you should be introduced as a new law

Take the time to learn to hate come and join the mass debate
take the time take the time It's all uphill you gotta climb

you betrayed all the trust i gave you 
now i need therapy to hate a little more 
you can not help me to forgive you 
the drugs have given you all kinds of different sores
As you pump drugs into your bloodstream I sit observant in disgust
Hoping that you will finally come clean 
so i dont have to use this gun
________________________________________________________________________


Petrol and Chlorine

Sinking through dark black holes its never gonna end 
Open gash in my rib cage is never going to mend

Take another picture off the wall
Sinking deeper every time i fall

Each day ends quicker and my mind gets slower too
As my life just fades away I wouldn't have a clue

Take another draw out from the shelf
I'm too weak to do it by myself

Though you had the world at your feet You could see it I was blind
Had the pefect the job called life You didn't like  it you resigned 

Brain's a square of grass
Growing on petrol and chlorine

On petrol and chlorine
You know just what i mean
_______________________________________________________________________

Roses
 
Drained as drained can be Life is gone from me 
Drained if drained is free If only I could breathe 

Smelling dead roses

Take your mind with you There's no room for two 
I can't handle both handle both of you 

Smelling dead roses
 
But I won't fall down no I won't fall down
________________________________________________________________________

Nobody Came 

Laying lost and wounded  just myself to blame 
Have no life and being hand-fed pain 

Head's a crying wasteland filled with shame
Cried for before and nobody came 

His father beats him no hesitation his face left dripping in humiliation

As he lies wounded  his father turns to clay a frozen statue cant walk away

His head's a crying wasteland filled with shame
Cried for before and nobody came  

to see what i can lose again for being the victim

no
________________________________________________________________________

The Closing 

Welcome to the closing
Not for love what for 
Its easy to be taken 
but to say 

Come again 
Leave again 
Waste of time 
Come again

Im alone while your having fun you have faith while i have none
Sleep till late to waste half the day but im happy to live this way

And i know that you can see my pain
but you know that i can see your pain

Me and shame are the same me and shame take the blame

Me and pain are the same me and shame take the blame.
