{The Blind video is close captioned, but I've yet to look at it's version}
Are you ready?!
This place inside my mind, a place I like to hide You don't know the chances. What if I should die?! A place inside my brain, another kind of pain You don't know the chances. I'm so blind!
Another place I find to escape the pain inside You don't know the chances. What if I should die?! A place inside my brain, another kind of pain You don't know the chances. I'm so blind!
-To burn, to burn, to burn inside 22, [to burn deeper,deeper inside 22] Live a life that seems to be a lost reality that can never find a way to reach my inner self. I stay alone. How deep can I go in the ground that I lay? If I don't find a way to see through the gray that clouds my mind. This time I look to see what's between the lines.
I can see, I can see, I'm going blind... I'm blind!

Ball Tongue |
|
|
{These are my best guesses on this one. Take them for what they are-- what it sounds like. I've heard that it might just be "reggie gibberish" or "frustrated gibberish", in Jonathan's words}
There you are alone With no hope of ever having something to be proud of Something earned without begging Yes, I know you're a person, a person close to me Who do you think you are? What more do you want from me?! Ball Tongue! -You got the dykes off, I think they'll mind me Ball Tongue! -The rag I'm on, we are justified Ball Tongue! -Congrats you just fucked up my make-up and shit Ball Tongue! What have you done for me?!
Why are you at home buried in your own self pity? Why do you insist on living the life clean out of me? Yes, I know you're the person, the person that took down me [...the person that could tell me] Does it give you the right to inspect your life revolves around me?! Ball Tongue! -You have come to take from your buddy Ball Tongue! -You have never been so funky Ball Tongue! -The higgle got sick of me Ball Tongue! -Ahh, the dick is fine for the day Ball Tongue! -You're drug addicted from me [Your brother took it from me] Ball Tongue! -Unidentified enemy [in my mind] Ball Tongue! -Come fucking back to save us and gave up Ball Tongue! -They've come to deliver me [come down, think to me]
You were my brother Where does our friendship end? I'm not going to give in
How can you fuck'n doubt me, but not again
Ball Tongue! -They've driven right by my friends Ball Tongue! -They've taken the take above me Ball Tongue! -They're a psychopath [psycho munky] Ball Tongue! -They've come to enslave me Ball Tongue! -They've jacken themselves onto me Ball Tongue! -Your fuck'n gangster signs Ball Tongue! -They've come not to save them, but they take Ball Tongue! -Fuck'n death to fuck'n me
You're psychopaths {repeated}
Ball Tongue! -Berome's dead at the tecnodrome Ball Tongue! -You're right, he's dead, tear gas dropped, but who was it? Ball Tongue! -it doesn't of the rhythm of the damn monger Ball Tongue! -Can I die?! Can I die?! Ball Tongue! -And then, the man kept kick'n me Ball Tongue! -He gets him on, they're cool Ball Tongue! -He wasn't dead, and then they knocked him on the head Ball Tongue! -No more, he's rid of you. You're a Dyke!

Need To |
|
|
I, I am confused, fighting myself [biting myself] Wanting to give in, needing your help Skin cold with fear, fear lives when we touch Outside I don't know you, but inside I'm fucked
Can you see it in me, skin cold from touch Each turn confronted with what I have done You pull me closer, I push you away You tell me it's okay, I can't help but feel the pain
I hate you Why are you taken? I love you I feel so helpless Why is it you? ripping my insides each time I'm with you why do I cry/try? why do I really need to? Why! Fuck you, bitch! need to . . . fuck . . . slut

{Someone tried to take a swing at Johnathan during a concert for being who Johnathan is, so they decided to write a song about it. "Wanna hear it? Here it goes."}
life is within my body four clicks . . . alright go

Anger inside builds within my body Why'd you hit me? What have I done? You tried to hit me!
-The pain will begin, if you like [Do you want me to begin, if you like] Throw your hate at me with all your might Hit me 'cause I'm strange, hit me! You tell me I'm a pussy and you're harder than me What's with you boy? Think hard. A tattooed body to hide who you are Scared to be honest, be yourself A cowardly man!
I don't run around trying to be what's not within me Look into my eyes, I am free You're just a wanna-be
To come out
Hit me clown because I'm not from your town, now hit me clown
Clown you ain't shit. Turn around and get your face split.

Divine |
|
|
I hide, only to defy you Take away the only love inside you I see the face through everyone Inside I've just begun! You think I'm out to scare you I'm only out to prepare you for when you stop and turn around Your body's going down!
You're gonna waste your time, Your life will soon be mine, You're definitely one of a kind, and You're suffering 'cause of me it's divine
Tell me why you never liked me Tell me why it is you fight me [Tell me why, so you'll fight me] Pull down and wait for the perfect time to take what's rightfully mine You think they're dumb to defy me You said you don't want to defy me -You wait, to dumb run anyone [...you don't want anyone] Oh well . . .
You know what, Fuck you! I'm fed up with you! I'm not as good as you?! Fuck no! I'm better than you!
Did you really think you'd beat me at my own game?! You try to see what you got Me ripping at your brain!

Faget |

{he is not bashing gays, but mearly saying how he hated being called a fagot while growing up for just being different}
Him!
Here I am different in this normal world Why did you tease me? Made me feel upset Walking stereotypes feeding their heads I am ugly. Please just go away
Him! I can see inside you fine This blessing in disguise Him! Why you treat me this way? Made to hate to stay
A cell locked, I can never seem to escape all the laughing, all the pain If you were me, what would you do? Nothing, probably. You'd just go on your way
Faget! [pussy]
I'm just a pretty boy, whatever you call it You wouldn't know a real man if you saw it It keeps going on day after day, son -you fake, if we don't want none I'm sick and tired of people treating me this way everyday Who gives a fuck?! Right now I got something to say to all the people that think I'm strange and I should be out of here locked up in a cage You don't know what the hell is up now anyway You got this pretty-boy feeling like I'm enslaved to a world that never appreciated shit YOU CAN SUCK MY DICK AND FUCKING LIKE IT!!!
He had my gun but he had to find the money [He might come, but he has a body mighty] any say, anyway, don't wanna say, anyway, any say, going away, don't wanna say, anyway
{This part is rumored to just be reggie gibberish, from the mouth of Jonathan}
I'm just a pretty boy, I'm not supposed to fuck a girl I'm just a pretty boy, living in this fucked up world
All my life, who am I?!
I'm just a faget! Faget! I'm a faget! Faget! I'm not a faget! What am I? Faget! I'm not a fucking queer!

Shoots and Ladders |

{Their second video. The intro is Jonathan (lead vocalist) playing the bagpipes. If you listen closely, you can hear birds in the background. It is rumored that this intro was recorded outside and the fade-in was done by Jonathan walking toward the mic on a hill}
Ring around the rosies Pocket full of posies Ashes, ashes, we all fall down
Nursery rhymes are said, verses in my head Into my childhood they're spoonfed Hidden violence revealed, darkness that seems real Look at the pages that cause all this evil
One, two, buckle my shoe Three, four, shut the door Five, six, pick up sticks Seven, eight, lay them straight
London bridges falling down, falling down, falling down London bridges falling down, my fair lady
Nick nack patty wack, give a dog a bone This old man came rolling home . . . this old man came, Mary had a little lamb who's fleece was white as snow! {He says it so weird that it sounds like, "and if we had to pick up the missing foot um in um in . . ."}
Mary had a little lamb who's fleece was white as snow! Baa baa black sheep have you any wool Mary had a little lamb who's fleece was white as snow! Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full Mary had a little lamb who's fleece was white as snow! Baa baa black sheep have you any wool Mary had a little lamb! Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full [white trash coon]
{also from the mouth of Jonathan} |
Predictable |
|
|
Go!
I can, in every way Distinct the pain I feel inside [The sting, the pain...] It comes to me Evil thoughts is creeping through my mind Who are you to say that I can't speak what's on my mind? It runs away It's so predictable
I can, in every way Illustrate this thing called love inside [...this thing that's left inside] Too blind to see, emptiness and sorrow of a lie [...are alive] You run away to the cover of their pointless ties You ask me? It's so predictable
I'm gonna try [should I? [fuck]] I'm gonna die I'm gonna try
another day Silence overwhelms my mind who is to say If I have the time, oh why should I pray for all the hate to go away another day I can never break free You wait for me I call out to you Another day I'll live forever! |
Fake |
|
|
I can't stand the sight of you I can't stand what you put me through Your life's a lie, but you hide Is it that terrible being you inside? I can't stand, oh, the thought of you I can't stand all the things you do What do you try to justify? You were just too scared to be you inside
Let! It all go
[I look] at you, all I see, is a man too afraid to really be
I can't stand what you put me through I can't stand even the thought of you Your secret lies that you hide Is it that terrible being you inside?
You try so hard to be wanted -False emotions tells you fronted I feel being a person relies on one thing: Be yourself, let you come through You're too afraid to really be Someone who has the thoughts who doesn't care to be Be yourself, let you come through!
Fake! -You'll regret it, you'll regret it |
Lies |
|
|
I would like to search inside for all of the things that you will hide What's the problem? Can't you seem to search through these problems that haunt and taunt you I smile, while you're afraid You run, while you're so in pain
Do you ever see [it from] outside you fears Thinking about your life Thinking about your inner fears
I would like to search inside for all of the things that you will hide What's the problem? Can't you seem to open your body and let me touch you
I want you to see the life you have disguised The world of things that hurt you Kept all these useless lies I want you to fear the you wound up inside Once I took you in, I'll throw you out next time
I tried, you win My life is ripping your heart out and destroying my pain! Go!

Helmet in the Bush |
|

{Intro is one of their sound tech guys or someone just fucking with their answering machine, and they decided to keep it. Excuse the spelling} {The song is about his drug problem. A problem associated with it is a shrinking of the penis, hince helmet in the bush} {Note: Drums are a from a drum machine}
'ello, esta Caco et eres Caco Well, you know, you fuck'n call me the Caco, okay?
I keep asking, what's your lie? It is disturbing This isn't mine Why Days keep passing A lot at a time me? I don't feel right Please God let me sleep tonight
Everyday confronted circumvents giving in [...sick of friends giving in] I just wanna know why!
Don't give it up [Don't get it up] Don't hit my stick [Don't get my stiff] [I can't escape]
I keep asking Well, again, please try [...can we please try] It is haunting This takes my mind Why Days keep passing Line after line me? I don't feel right Please God don't let me die tonight, die tonight, die tonight, die tonight
Please God help me Please God save me Please God help me from my painful situation
Please God don't let me slip in tonight, please God Oh, please God don't let me chip in tonight, please God Oh, please God don't let me slip in tonight, don't let me die Please God don't let me give in tonight, don't let me die |
Daddy |
|
|
{Though I'm not positive if it's actually about Jonathan, the song is about child abuse/rape from his "daddy"}
Mother please forgive me I just had to get out all my pain and suffering Now that I am done, remember I will always love you I'm your son
Little child, looking so pretty Come out and play, I'll be your daddy Innocent child, looking so sweet A rape in my eyes and on your flesh I'll eat
You've raped! I feel dirty [I feel daddy] [I fear daddy] It hurt! As a child Tied down! That's a good boy And fucked! Your own child I scream! No one hears me It hurt! I'm not alive [not a lie] My God! Saw you watching Mommy why?! Your own child {The third time this section is sung, "Mother" is repeated in the background}
It's alright
I didn't touch you there Mama said she didn't care I didn't touch you there That's why mama stopped and stared
I fucking hate you! Mother fucker! Mother Fucker! I fucking hate you! Fuck You! You son of a bitch, you fucking ruined my life! I wanted to die! I'm sick of it, mother fucker . . . oh oh Why'd you fuck'n do it to me? I Hate You! I Fuck'n Hate You! I Hate You! Piece of shit! Why?! I Hate You!
{The woman's voice in the background} When I awake, I'll see your face When I awake, I'll see your light Mother wake me from my dream Mother wake me in the . . . {Becomes indecipherable, any help here is appreciated}
{This outro is Johnathan getting a little excited (to say the least) and not planned. They ran out of tape just as he walked out the booth (you can hear the door close on the CD). The other band members were making shit up towards the end to go along with Johnathan} |
