Sweet young girl, so soft and blonde Does exactly what shes been warned Intoxications in her veins Sweet young boy plays with her brain Believing all his faith through lies Putting his hands onto her thighs Impurity has now been gripped He takes away her innocence Sweet children Sweet children Sweet children Remember when? Ooh, Johnny Ray is running again As he hits the floor again Running from the light of day Or maybe lie and celebrate The slightest urge goes from his hand Follow me if you understand Hes got the trigger of his gun The final sin and now he runs Sweet children Sweet children Sweet children Remember when? Sweet children Sweet children Sweet children Remember when?

I sit in the state of a daydream With all of your words flying over my head Even more time gets wasted In a daze It should seem obvious to you Your screams and cries are never going to work And all of your time gets wasted In my daze And Im looking back now At where I have gone wrong And why I could not seem to get along My interests are longing To break through these chains These chains that control My futures aims, oh no I sit in the state of a daydream With all of your words flying over my head Even more time gets wasted In a daze Maybe Im just too damn lazy Or maybe I was just brainwashed to think that way And all of your time gets wasted In my daze And Im looking back now At where I have gone wrong And why I could not seem to get along My interests are longing To break through these chains These chains that control My futures aims, oh no Im looking... Back now at... Where I have... Have gone wrong... And why I... Could not seem... Could not seem... To get along And Im looking back now At where I have gone wrong And why I could not seem to get along My interests are longing To break through these chains These chains that control My futures aims, oh no

I. The Death of St. Jimmy My heart is beating from me I am standing all alone Please call me only If you are coming home Waste another year flies by Waste a night or two You taught me how to live In the streets of shame Where youve lost your dreams in the rain Theres no sign of hope The stems and seeds of the last of the dope Theres a glow of light The St. Jimmy is the spark in the night Bearing gifts and trust The fixture in the city of lust What the hells your name? Whats your pleasure, what is your pain Do you dream too much? Do you think what you need is a crutch? In the crowd of pain St. Jimmy comes without any shame He says Were fucked up But were not the same And Mom and Dad are the ones you can blame Jimmy died today He blew his brains out into the bay In the state of mind In my own private suicide II.

Anybody get me out of here! Somebody get me out of here! Get me the fuck right out of here! So far away I dont want to stay Get me outta here right now I just wanna be free Is there a possibility Get me out of here right now This lifelike dream aint for me! III. Nobody Likes You I fell asleep while watching Spike TV After ten cups of coffee And youre still not here Dreaming of a song When something went wrong But I cant tell anyone Cause no ones here Left me here alone When I should have stayed home After 10 cups of coffee Im thinking...

Were Coming Home Again Here they come marching down the street Like a desperation murmur of a heart beat Coming back from the edge of town Underneath their feet The time has come and it going nowhere Nobody ever said that life was fair now Go-carts and guns are treasures they will bear In the summer heat The world is spinning Around and around Out of control again From the 7-11 to the Fear of breaking down! So send my love a letterbomb And visit me in hell Were the ones going... Home. Were coming home again Home. Were coming home again I started fuckin running As soon as my feet touched ground Were back in the Barrio But to you- -and me, thats Jingletown, thats... Home. Were coming home again Nobody likes you Everyone left you Theyre all out without you Havin fun!

I wish I could tell you But the words would come out wrong Oh, if you only knew The way I felt for so long I know that were worlds apart But I just dont seem to care These feelings in my heart Only with you I wanna share The first time I caught A glimpse of you Then all my thoughts Were only of you I hope that when time goes by You will think the same about me Many nights awake I lie I only wish that you could see I know that were only friends I hope this feeling never ends If I could only hold you Its the only thing I wanna do The first time I caught A glimpse of you Then all my thoughts Were only of you

I always waste my time just wondering What the next man thinks of me Ill never do exactly what I want And Ill sculpt my life for your acceptance I always waste my time just wondering What the next man thinks of me Ill never do exactly what I want And Ill sculpt my life for your acceptance And I feel forgotten Feel like rotting Adolescence Just cant make sense I take a look around And all the things Ive found I call it blind hatred If youd stop a while And maybe if youd smile You would realize that Were all the same Its just like our brain When it goes insane We feel the same pain All my life Ive seemed to have this need I think at times it even turns to greed We all want to join some family Well even sacrifice a moral changing And I feel forgotten Feel like rotting Adolescence Just cant make sense I take a look around And all the things Ive found I call it blind hatred If youd stop a while And maybe if youd smile You would realize that Were all the same Its just like our brain When it goes insane We feel the same pain I take a look around And all the things Ive found I call it blind hatred If youd stop a while And maybe if youd smile You would realize that Were all the same Its just like our brain When it goes insane We feel the same pain
