Take
You Down
From the bottom of this
cup this bulbous world is finally straight
as straight, as broken
lines can sound
And maybe I didn’t wanna
feel the changing pace of
Life’s unforgiving grip,
admit my reel was slowing down
But I’ve seen this world
through the cracks in the floor
I’ve been the Pimp, Lord
and I’ve been the whore
I’ve found solice when
I closed my eyes, it’s fine
Open up and let a bottle
run the night
Hey, his cup is full
and it will break you, break you
Hey, he's going down
and he will take you, take you down
There’s feelings to hide
Nothing is ever all right
Chorus
"I believe in a world
where brown-bagging it cures the hopeless thoughts of all who follow in
his name.
Jack, Jim, Jose: All
members of a secret sect sworn to the happiness of all men. No matter who
it hurts...
No matter how many families
it destroys, kids it kills and lives it ruins, keep in mind, that as with
most things,
damage only comes in
excess."
Chorus
The Cause
And all the causes that
you're fighting for can't stand up to your tan
Flip-flop and recreate
yourself so you can make the common stand
Out in front of the clinic
holding signs, pretending that you mind
You take the things that
no one should say
And you put them on display
Come off your soapbox
Let us think for ourselves
And I swear we will find
our way
So now you've got your
bridge, you've got your friends
You've finally got your
chance
To take the plunge just
like a lemming should
To jump with all of them
Battles with the stubborn
and the blind are a waste of my time
Chorus x2
Bipolar - Path
She lies down and cries
herself to sleep
Every night a battle
that never seems to cease
Her twisted heart cant
heal without a mind
To crush the shadow cast
when she crossed the line
Another day is locked
away
Awake and lonely she
finds herself
To face another day stuck
on the shelf
She knocks it down and
builds it up again
Replacing the lid securely
and then
Another day is locked
away
The Path of least resistance
is effortless she promises
Soon one day she'll find
herself off the shelf and she notices
Empty hearts do not remain
once the pain is focused in to overcome yourself
Selfishness gently becomes
yourself.
She lies now and makes
herself believe
Her life is grand. She's
gladdened without me
But who's the fool? She'll
figure soon enough
Reflecting back her image
is clear to see
Another day is locked
away
Chorus
All you ever needed was
to open up your eyes and see the world in front of you
All you never saw was
my heart breaking and bleeding over you
All you'll never hear
are words unspoken. Unspoken wisdom all for you. I was all for you.
Chorus
Bipolar - Aftermath
Walk away from the aftermath
The residue of raw emotion
that you always leave behind
Run away. Leave today.
Spare the people in your path
Spare yourself the shame
When the blood that's
on your hands becomes the blood that's in them
You're to blame. That's
your prerogative.
It doesn't mean he is
out to hurt the ones he knows
They're just the box
that's built around him not expanding as he grows
He doesn't see that he's
the one who is shattered by these broken dreams
Chorus x2

Trust is hard to gain
but easy to give to someone else
Friends are everywhere
but most of the time out for themselves
All these pieces of a
mind that's made of clay
Soft and then it hardens
Making it easier to break
Shattering everywhere
Dissolved are the bonds
with the people that I have been meeting
Long since the time when
I could depend
Resolved is the guilt
I've been feeling for needing
Gone out the door fast
as it came in
Chorus x2
Dollhouse
I look into me and feel
this somthing you will never see
Trapped in skin clearly
not meant for me
Can't control the only
thing I've ever known
This person that's locked
up inside of me can't escape
The fire that's blazing
inside of me burns away
Im trying to change me
Im trying to grow
Im certain you'll love
me
When I have evolved
When Im free, when I've
reached some kind of reprieve
Chorus x2
Bipolar - Chemical Dream
I've seen this before
You're on it again
It's all in your eyes
They've sold you out
Now that your world's
standing still
I've got time to say
That the steps that you
take to forget all your pain
Won't let you remember
your life's not that easy to change
Your chemical dream has
gone too far
Now you've become what
they told you to be
And somehow forgot who
you are
They want you to say
That you're better than
me
But why pay for lies
I've
Already told you for
free
And now here we are
So very far from the
start
Well that shit that you
take might have cleared up your mind
But didn't leave much
of your heart
CHORUS
If you walk away, don't
turn around
I won't pick you up just
to wacth you fall down again
Maybe this time, you'll
realize
CHORUS 2X
As I Bleed
You don’t play the game
you can’t make the rules
While you sit and think
of which lies to choose
Again you push me as
I’m falling
You say you’ve changed
your ways but I fail to see
When it’s the same old
shit that you’re doing to me
You hold me down as I
am drowning
And just when I've begun
To crawl out from this
hole
The walls start caving
I can’t believe the things
that you say
Your words are choking
me
I can’t believe your
nerve as you’re leaving me
Watching me as I bleed
And here it comes again
now let the games begin
You give a smile, “hello”
but it’s all pretend
You always pinch me when
I’m dreaming
You’ll give a chance
to all that try except for me
And as I close my eyes
I can finally see
You’ll never stop til’
I lay dying
And just when I've begun
To crawl out from this
hole
The walls start crumbling
Chorus x2
