II. when it all goes to hell
there you are
it's soft and it's red
floating free
in your own private bed
then one day
you're pushed down the well
and you can feel your funny bone crack
when it all goes to hell
you come into
a world cold and bright
and after a while
it all seems alright
you dance and play
but it's too soon to tell
that you'll find yourself scathed and attacked
when it all goes to hell
when it all goes to hell
and you don't even try to get up
when it all goes to hell
III. a thief in the night
i was a general
of darkness and light
i was to be the major man
it was some kind of sight
i was going to stand alone
and do what was right
now i'm just another stepping stone
a thief in the night
so where were all of those
angels and priest
who said they'd carry me
beyond my beliefs
where are all of them now
they're gone from my sight
my mother and father deserted me
like thieves in the night
yes, where are all of them now
they're gone from my sight
my mother and father deserted me
like thieves in the night
i was the water
i was the ocean king
i ruled the red sky
i could do anything
'till you, you
you messed me up
you, you
you all messed me up

i wish that you'd all fucking die, die, DIE!
you don't give a shit about anything
FUCK YOU
i don't know why you even bother to live
FUCK YOU
everyone's so pathetic
always talking all the time
what makes them think that
i give half a shit what's on their minds, minds, MINDS!
FUCK YOU
(if the truth were told i really hate myself so)
FUCK YOU
FUCK YOU
FUCK YOU
FUCK YOU!
i'm so sorry
i really am so, so sorry
if i ever hurt you or caused you pain
i can't help it
i really, really just can't help it
when the madman's on the rise again
can you understand what it's like?
you all must understand what it's like
i can't help what happened to me
sometimes it just comes out now can't you see
please understand and don't
don't hate me
i'm so sorry
i really am so, so sorry
if i ever hurt you or caused you pain
if you don't understand it's all the same
i guess i'll just be left alone again......
