Destroy Yourself (live)

My Mind is consumed
I smile at nothing
I know it won't be long
'til I am too far gone.
I act without reason
But, there's a lot of that goin' around this season.
I can't think straight
I walk with a gait.
I can't remember the last time I ate.
I felt the night starting to fail.
It's all over now
There's no wind
To make my boat sail.
Now it's time to sink
To a watery grave
I am on the brink
and I feel far from brave.
It's gonna happen
It's gonna happen
It's gonna fail.
It's definitely useless
Still, I wish you wanted to help.
It is certainly fruitless
There's no benefit for yourself.
Don't treat my mind like a toy
You made me feel good
But I've made a vow
To never feel alive again
To NEVER fell ALIVE again!
I make allowances for the things that make me sick
Fear and dread live inside my head
And I can't even lie straight in bed.
I feel nothing but sickness and weariness
It's maddening.
Is it even happening?
I can't get better
I won't get better.
Prevention is better than cure
You can't prevent accidents
And you're the cause and the cure
Of an illness that is pure
It will get a lot worse before it gets any better
I've never looked so far into someone's eyes
I wish I hadn't.
My thoughts cripple my brain.
My thoughts cripple my brain.
I'll never forgive the world
For letting me down.
It promised me so much
but delivered so little.
I want to reward you with my suffering
make you so ill that you will
Destroy yourself.
Destroy yourself.
Go on, don't be afraid now
Destroy yourself!
Destroy your, self!

Some are lost, yeah
Some are lonely
Some just can't find their way.
Everybody needs a route.
Whether it's the Bruce Highway.
Or waterworks road.
Which goes all the way to the gap.
Everybody needs a route.
How did you get here?
How are you going to get home,
Without a route?
It could be a slow route
Or a quick route
Or a scenic route,
but everybody needs a route.
David Ethix needs a route.
D'White Yokem needs a route.
Rand M. Strange needs a route.
Magnus O'Pus needs a route.
Everybody
Everybody, needs a route.
When Ric Ocasek moaned
Who's gonna drive you home?
I think that the point is moot
He definitely needed a route.

Sus Cunts (live)

I can't love
I can't laugh
What has happened in my past?
I have a fight
every night
with myself and no one else.
Look at this cunt,
he's a real sus cunt, this cunt hey?
Oh yeah, that cunt. I knew that cunt for 25yrs that cunt.
The nicest pain comes from you.
The sweetest abuse comes from the blackest smile.
The softest beating from a distant heart.
The gentlest breath from a dying body.
Awwww, Look at this cunt, he's a real sus cunt, this cunt hey?
Oh yeah, that cunt. I knew that cunt for 25yrs that cunt.
Look at this cunt, he's a real sus cunt, this cunt hey?
Oh yeah, that cunt. I knew that cunt for 25yrs that cunt.

I make allowances for the things that make me sick
To never feel alive again.
I make allowances for the things that make me sick
To never feel alive again.
I make allowances for the things that make me sick
To never feel alive again.
I make allowances for the things that make me sick
To never feel alive again.
I make allowances for the things that make me sick
To never feel alive again.
I am in the early stages of the disease.
I get cold flushes and hot flushes.
And the pain that crushes.
I can't see, I can't hear
My heart palpitates
My skin perspirates..
I am sick of feeling this way
I am sick of feeling sick
I'm tired of the next day
This half-living makes me lethargic.
I was born from a black hole
and back to a black hole I'll go
But I'll be dead for years
before they get around
to dumping me in the ground.
For the one time I thought I was right I was wrong
The one time I felt something good
It disappeared and all alone I stood
For the the one time I felt real, it was all along fake
but not one more mistake I shall make
Because I've made a vow:
To never feel alive again..
