Jealous cowards try to control
Rise above! We're gonna rise above!
They distort what we say
Rise above! We're gonna rise above!
Try and stop what we do
Rise above! We're gonna rise above!
When they can't do it themselves
Rise above! We're gonna rise above!

We are tired of your abuse
Try to stop us; it's no use!

Society's arms of control
Rise above! We're gonna rise above!
Think they're smart; can't think for themselves
Rise above! We're gonna rise above!
Laugh at us behind our backs
Rise above! We're gonna rise above!
I find satisfaction in what they lack
Rise above! We're gonna rise above!

We are tired of your abuse
Try to stop us; it's no use!

We are tired of your abuse
Try to stop us; it's no use!

We are born with a chance
Rise above! We're gonna rise above!
I am gonna have my chance
Rise above! We're gonna rise above!
We are born with a chance
Rise above! We're gonna rise above!
And I am gonna have my chance
Rise above! We're gonna rise above!

We are tired of your abuse
Try to stop us; it's no use!

Rise above!
Rise above!
Rise above!
We're gonna rise above!
We're gonna rise above!
We're gonna rise above!

It feels good to say what I want
It feels good to knock things down
It feels good to see the disgust in their eyes
It feels good, and I'm gonna go wild
Spray paint the walls

I don't want to see the plan succeed
There won't be room for people like me
My life is their disease
It feels good, and I'm gonna go wild
Spray paint the walls

It feels so good to say what I want
It feels so good to knock things down
It feels good to see the disgust in their eyes
It feels good, and I'm gonna go wild
Spray paint the walls
It feels good, and I'm gonna go wild

I got a six pack and nothing to do
I got a six pack and I don't need you

$35 and a six pack to my name
SIX PACK!
Spent the rest on beer so who's to blame
SIX PACK!
They say I'm fucked up all the time
SIX PACK!
What they do is a waste of time
SIX PACK!

I know it'll be OK
I get a six pack in me, alright!

My girlfriend asked me which one I like better
SIX PACK!
I hope the answer won't upset her
SIX PACK!
I was born with a bottle in my mouth
SIX PACK!
Now I got a six so I'll never run out
SIX PACK!

I know it'll be OK
I get a six pack in me, alright!

$35 and a six pack to my name
SIX PACK!
Spent the rest on beer so who's to blame
SIX PACK!
They say I'm fucked up all the time
SIX PACK!
What they do is a waste of time
SIX PACK!

SIX PACK!
SIX PACK!
SIX PACK!

What do they know about partying
Or anything else

This feeling haunts me.
Behind these eyes
The shell seems so empty.
Though I wonder if anything lives inside?

I want to live
I wish I was dead

My heart aches to bleed.
I'm cheated from what I see.
Freedom holds a double-edge for me.
I look in your eyes and see...

I want to live.
I wish I was dead.

I don't want to think.
I'm stuck here and I know it.
I don't want to see.
Make me close my eyes.

I want to live.
I wish I was dead.

Life's cold.
Every thing's inside.
I need to feel,
But turn my mind off.
The desperation begins.
From the start I see the end.
Not right, I'm not right, you're not right.
I've got to close my eyes.

I look in your eyes
And see its always this way.
Live the lie and take a dive
Just to make it die.

I want to live.
I wish I was dead.
I've just got to close my eyes.
I've got to close my eyes.
I've got to close my eyes.

TV party tonight
TV party tonight
TV party tonight
TV party tonight!

We're gonna have a TV party tonight
All right!
We're gonna have a TV party, all right
Tonight!

We've got nothing better to do
Than watch TV
And have a couple of brews

Everybody's gonna hang out here tonight
All right!
We'll pass out on the couch, all right
Tonight!

We've got nothing better to do
Than watch TV
And have a couple of brews

Don't talk about anything else
We don't want to know
We're dedicated to our favorite shows

That's Incredible!
Hill Street Blues!
Dallas!
Fridays!

We sit glued to the TV set all night
And every night
Why go into the outside world at all
It's such a fright

We've got nothing better to do
Than watch TV
And have a couple of brews

TV news shows
What it's like out there?
It's a scare
You can go out if you want
We wouldn't dare

We've got nothing better to do
Than watch TV
And have a couple of brews

Don't talk about anything else
We don't want to know
We're dedicated to our favorite shows

Saturday Night Live!
Monday Night Football!
Jeffersons!
Vega$!

I wouldn't be without my TV for a day
Or even a minute
I don't bother to use my brain any more
There's nothing left in it

We've got nothing better to do
Than watch TV
And have a couple of brews

Wait a minute
My TV set doesn't work
It's broken
What are we gonna do tonight?
This isn't fair
We're hurtin'

We've got nothing left to do
Left with no TV
Just a couple of brews

What are we gonna talk about... I don't know!
We're gonna miss our favorite shows

No That's Incredible!
No Monday Night Football!
No Jeffersons!
No Fridays!

No TV party tonight

Thirsty and miserable
You drop to the floor
You drink 'til you can't
Even see any more

Thirsty and miserable
Always wanting more
Thirsty and miserable
Always wanting more

My brother wants a ride
To the liquor store
You pity him
For what he wants it for

Thirsty and miserable
Always wanting more
Thirsty and miserable
Always wanting more

It's 1:30
And we're all getting nervous
The store closes at two
There's not enough to last us

Thirsty and miserable
Always wanting more
Thirsty and miserable
Always wanting more

This fucking city
Is run by pigs
They take the rights
Away from all the kids

Understand
We're fighting a war
We can't win
They hate us
We hate them
We can't win, no way!

Walk down the street
I flip them off
They hit me across the head
With a billy club

Understand
We're fighting a war
We can't win
They hate us
We hate them
We can't win, no way!

Nothing I do,
Nothing I say
I tell them to go get fucked
They put me away

Understand
We're fighting a war
We can't win
They hate us
We hate them
We can't win, no way!

I go to court,
For my crime,
Stand in line pay bail,
I waste my time

Understand
We're fighting a war
We can't win
They hate us
We hate them
We can't win, no way!

Gimme gimme gimme
I need some more
Gimme gimme gimme
Don't ask what for

Sitting here I'm a loaded gun
Waiting to go off
I've got nothing to do
But shoot my mouth off

Gimme gimme gimme
I need some more
Gimme gimme gimme
Don't ask what for

You know I'm gonna go out
Get something for my head
If I keep on doing this
I'm gonna end up dead

Gimme gimme gimme
I need some more
Gimme gimme gimme
Don't ask what for
I know the world's got problems
I've got problems of my own
Not the kind that can't be solved
With an atom bomb

Gimme gimme gimme
I need some more
Gimme gimme gimme
Don't ask what for

9.

Right here, all by myself
I ain't got no one else
The situation is bleeding me
There's no relief for a person like me

Depression's got a hold of me
Depression! I gotta break free
Depression's got a hold of me
Depression's gonna kill me

I ain't got no friends to call my own
I just sit here all alone
There's no girls that want to touch me
I don't need your goddamn sympathy

Depression's got a hold of me
Depression! I gotta break free
Depression's got a hold of me
Depression's gonna kill me

Everybody, just get away
I'm gonna boil over inside today
They tell me son, things are gonna get better
All I know is, they fucking better

Depression's got a hold of me
Depression! I gotta break free
Depression's got a hold of me
Depression's gonna kill me

10.

Keep me alive
Only you can do it
If not you'll die too
And I'll see to it

It's hard to survive
Don't know if I can do it

Keep me alive
I can't accept my fate
I need help
Before it's too late

It's hard to survive, don't know if I can do it
I need to belong, I need to hang on
I need, need

Keep me alive feelings I must obey
Can't turn my eyes from the past
This crisis is the last

Keep me alive
I rely on your judgement
I've got none left of my own
Don't know what I'm doing

It's hard to survive, don't know if I can do it
I need to belong, I need to hang on
I need, need

Keep me alive
Only you can do it
Keep me alive
Only you can do it

It's hard to survive, don't know if I can do it

Keep me alive
Keep me alive
Keep me alive
Keep me alive

It's hard to survive, don't know if I can do it
I need to belong, I need to hang on
I need, need

11.

Damaged by you
Damaged by me
I'm confused
Confused,
Don't wanna be confused
Stupid attempts
No conclusions
I'm confused
Confused,
Don't wanna be confused

Put the gun to my head
And I don't pull
I'm confused
Confused,
My emotions are bruised

I no longer feel a thing
I no longer want to see
But you can't make me long
For your life and security
Problems stick,
My live drips feelings cut

Stupid feelings
Stupid illusions
I'm confused
Confused,
Don't wanna be confused
Scars for me to wear
I'm confused
Confused,
Don't wanna be confused

Things don't fit
Do I care
I'm confused
Confused,
Don't wanna be confused

I no longer feel a thing
I no longer want to see
But you can't make me long
For your life and security
Problems stick,
My live drips feelings cut

12.

No, I won't believe that this is all
I'm not happy, I'm not free
Pay check to pay check,
Living for what
Every night I get drunk to ger sunk

I need action, won't take no more,
No more, no more, no more
It won't work, won't work
No more

I knew what I had when I grew up
I know that it really sucked
Now I'm a slave to the same lies
If I don't get out I'm gonna die
I need action, won't take no more,
No more, no more, no more
It won't work, won't work
No more

Control, control for who,
For what?
I'm no robot, they can get fucked
Reaction's masochism this can't last
I need to live, I need it now

I need action, won't take no more,
No more, no more, no more
It won't work, won't work
No more

Earth's a padded cell
Defanged and declawed
I'm living in hell it's a paradise fraud
Straight jacket minds in line to be old
Telling me to want,
Let time slip through my teeth
Well I'm not the fool,
I'm going to town
Manic reactions are always a buzz
I'm suspect, the stranger in disguise
It's forced itself upon me,
Something I can't hide

See it in - maniacs
Their eyes - maniacs
Maniacs, maniacs

Looking at you inside of you
Behind your eyes, through your mind
Looking at you, inside of you
I'm invisible, nowhere to hide
I'm obscene the living dead
See the flys feed off your head
Looking at you I'm inside of you
It's walden two but the flower's dead

See it in - maniacs
Their eyes - maniacs
Maniacs, maniacs

Earth's a padded cell
Defanged and declawed
I'm living in hell it's a paradise fraud
Straight jacket minds in line to be old
Telling me to want,
Let time slip through my teeth
Well I'm not the fool,
I'm going to town
Manic reactions are always a buzz
I'm suspect, the stranger in disguise
It's forced itself upon me,
Something I can't hide

See it in - maniacs
Their eyes - maniacs
Maniacs, maniacs

Look what you've done to your arms
I see you don't care who you harm
I understand
You've never been the girl next door
But now you're worse than before
Self destruct
Self...destruct

Life's miseries pain is deep
Does it matter what anybody cares?
Can there be another outlet?
Nobody gets close, nobody dares
Self destruct
Self...destruct

I understand your problems
I can figure out the reasons why
But I can't help what I feel
I can't accept what I see
Self destruct
Self...destruct

There's got to be a way to get out

15.
My name's Henry.
And you're here with me now
RRRAGHH
My life
It's a song daaahh
It's so you won't even let it happen
You won't
You won't let

DAMAGED!
By attacks
I'm evil attacking my mind
But you don't mind
Cause this scheduled 13
You just sit, down
Buy the ticket
Wait your turn
Waaaaahhhhahahahahahaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!
Wooaharhhhhhhhhahhh!!
Aaghhhhhhhh!
Wooaharhhhhhhhhahhh!!
Aaghhhhhhhh!

Can't feel another day
Can't get past you
I can't see nothin'
I'm blind
I'm blind
I'm blind
Hold out your hand to me
Give me your hand
Aagh!
..And I'll bite it off!!

DAMAGED!
DAMAGED!
DAMAGED!

Hrraagh!
I...
I don't even care about self-destruction anymore
What's the use?
I just sit at home alone
Cold fingers, gold fingers, in a cold sweat
And then I remember
I remember a day
We'd go for a ride in the country
And you'd say..
Sing it boy!
Do it again
Do it again
Yes sir!
Yes sir!
Yes sir!
Yes sir oh yes sir yes sir yes
Arghh!!

Right now look at me now
Look at me now
Just shadows
I'm just shadows of what I was
I just want another thing
I don't even get by for that
I want such ass for
Ahm ahm ahhhh

DAMAGED!!
Oh waawhhh!!

I I'm sorry my friend, I guess I just can't
Lesson other thing nice
It's nice and cool around here
It's nice
It's my mind
It's my mind that's off guard
And no one comes in
Nobody comes in
Damaged.
My damage
No one comes in
Stay out!
