Cast off the crutch that kills the pain
The red flag waving never meant the same
The kids of tomorrow dont need today
When they live in the sins of yesterday

In a crooked little town
They were lost and never found
Fallen leaves, fallen leaves
Fallen leaves on the ground
I hitched a ride until the coast
To leave behind all of my ghosts
Searching for something I couldn’t find at home
Can’t get no job, can you spare a dime?
Just one more hit and I’ll be fine
I swear to God, th... |
She reads a book from across the street
Waiting for someone that shell never meet
Talk over coffee for an hour or two
She wonders why Im always in a good mood
Killing time before she struts her stuff
She needs support and Ive become the crutch
Shell never know how much she means to me
Id play the game but Im the refere... |
Down, lets take it down – raise up their heads on a stake
We will show no mercy on evolutions mistake
Change will have to wait, if we cant decide on a fate
Self-appointed prophets and their doomsday charade
You preach about love and teach about faith
But all your beliefs are still rooted in hate
Crosses still burn, axe... |
I stumble through the wreckage, rusted from the rain
There’s nothing left to salvage, no one left to blame
Among the broken mirrors I don’t look the same
I’m rusted from the rain, I’m rusted from the rain
Dissect me ’til my blood runs down into the drain
My bitter heart is pumping oil into my veins
I’m nothing but a ti... |
Wherever I go, wherever I go
I have to question the hand that I hold close
Wherever I go, wherever I go
I have to silence the words that you fear most
Dont ever let go, dont ever let go
Are we destined to hit the ground below?
Dont ever let go, dont ever let go
Were at the end of a burning tightrope
Now Im waiting on t... |
Need more friends with wings
All the angels I know put concrete in my veins
I’d always walk home alone
So I became lifeless just like my telephone
There’s nothing to lose
When no one knows your name
There’s nothing to gain
But the days don’t seem to change
Never played truth or dare
I’d have to check my mirror to see i... |
A devil in a midnight mass
He preyed behind stained glass
A memory of Sunday class
Resurrected from the past
Hold your breath and count to four
Pinky swears don’t work no more
Footsteps down the hallway floor
Getting closer to my door
I was alive, but now I’m singing…
Silent night for the rest of my life
Silent night f... |
Like a target drawn across my chest
Shes a bullet in Russian Roulette
You said youd never turn your back on me
Would you stand by me or bury me?
Why dont we end this lie?
I cant pretend this time
I need a friend to find my broken mind
Before it falls to pieces
Every time
You tried to leave me blind
Youll never clos... |
As I get closer, my dreams get farther
I climb that ladder, but you kick it over
Thirsty for water, you give me vinegar
When I drink your medicine, it just makes me sicker
I dug a hole so deep
I’m gonna drown in my mistakes
Can’t even sell my soul
‘Cause it ain’t worth shit to take
I got the devil on my shoulder
And I... |
Rejected since day one
My name is bastard son
Ive been damned so many times Ive lost count
Blue collar working man
Devises master plan
Bipolar with a mental side arm
Im sick and Im twisted
Im broken you cant fix it
Dont make me, cause Ill do it
Red button and well all go
Into the river below
Im running from the inferno... |
You got the look, but not the credit
They wrote the book, on how to sell it
From cigarettes, to skinny jeans
You got the money, they got the means
Oh you upper class daughters, and working class sons
Its hard to save a dollar, the way the world runs
Youre the target market of a corporate joke
It wont be so ironic when ... |
Never understood how she could
Mean so little to so many
Why does she mean everything to me?
Is it worth the pain?
With no one to blame
For all of my insecurities?
How did I ever let you go?
Questioning her good intention
Jealousy’s a bad invention
When you push on glass, it’s bound to break
Even when she was defensive... |
Is never given enough today
Im tired of looking the other way
An appetite that we cant sustain
Were on a mission to kiss our days away
So how long before the rivers start to rise, dear?
Yeah I thank my lucky stars to be alive here
A generation of castaways
Under a nation of tidal waves
Are we the passengers or the prey... |
Well, I tripped, I fell down, naked
Well, I scratched my knees, they bled
Sew up my eyes, need no more
In our game there is no score
Forgive me father, why should you bother?
Try honesty! Try honesty!
Hop in your dump truck, reverse for good luck
Ride over me! Ride over me!
Take on the whole world, fight with the young... |
Everybody is tired
And poor and sick of trying
If you see me on a corner
Will you stop or will you splash me?
Take a look at what weve become
Nothing more than silhouettes of
A pretty family on a postcard
Picture perfect, I dont want it!
So I hold my breath till my heart explodes
Cause this is how it is and this is how... |
Today I walked down our old street
Past the diner where we’d meet
Now I dine alone in our old seats
The cold wind blows right through my bones
And I feel like I’m getting old
But I wish I was getting old with you
I held your hand when we took shelter from the rain
She laughed as we picked out our children’s names
White... |
Well never drink your medicine and well never think your way
Masters of broken promises are born to manipulate
Your mind is a vault of prejudice but we see through the door
Your dirty little secrets arent so secret anymore
Well never drink your medicine and well never think your way
Youre tied to an ideology from a boo... |
They found an empty bottle on her windowsill
The day her mother lost her sleeping pills
She was sick and tired of being invisible
Hard to see in color when youre miserable
Veronika, Saint Veronika
You cant leave this world behind
So be strong enough to hold onto us
Were still right here by your side
No one ever thought... |
Brothers in arms that share my fears
Time to protect what you hold dear
Theres been a rise in new ideas
Threatening to change the way we live
Who knows what troubles found a way?
Found a way to your door today?
Who knows what troubles on its way?
On its way to intimidate?
All I want is a big red gun
Im gonna shoot shoo... |
Time.. rolling along with the waves
A thousand miles away
Holding you close in the rain
Seems just like yesterday
Lost.. hope in a faraway place
And in my hand remains
A black and white print of a face
Ill never see again
I gave my life to save her
The ocean turned to red
In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took th... |
The gun is loaded when the glass is full
Down the hatch and the trigger’s pulled
Off the wagon and back onto the stool
I know that when I stare into your eyes
I can see all the years of lies
Ghosts and demons you never exorcised
All the friends that I’ve ever known
Are the streetlamps I follow home
And I’m in the crowd... |
Slapped my face, slammed the door
A dozen roses lay on the floor
I saw her friends and I was told
She blocked my number from her cell phone
You said we were meant to be
Now this obsession is killing me
Until I have a heart attack
I’ll keep on trying to win you back
Alone at last
I can’t wait till we’re alone at last
Al... |
One day youre gonna wake up from this dream
To find out that your life aint what it seems
When you feel so lost, that you dont belong
Well, I beg to differ
As time goes on, this will get better
And you cant go wrong if your will is strong
Enough under pressure
As time goes on, this will get better
This will get better
... |
Cmon!
Stuck in a crisis
Without a conscience
Trapped in a place we dont belong
Theres no more heroes
Left to believe in
Theyve pushed our backs against the wall
I know that something has to change
We got lost along the way
Your thoughts and prayers cant fix the pain
Cause were falling down again
Crooks and deceivers
Mi... |
What you see is what you get!
Fishing for the answers with a line and sinker
Look at me and dont forget!
Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers
What you see is what you get!
Fishing for the answers with a line and sinker
Look at me and dont forget!
Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers

In a garage beside a house
There is a luxury Sedan
And for his next monthly installment
He’s gonna go out with a bang
Boy who always did what he was told
Was promised to be king when he was old
Hit the brakes, hit the glass
Time to shake the hands of fate
The mistakes from the past
Flashed before his face
There is a ma... |
My head, it hurts, each day its getting worse
My looks and smile have now become my curse
Tight lips, red skirt, the never ending street
Big car, little man, my lover for a fee
So if you see me will you just drive on by?
Or will I catch the twinkle inside your eye?
And if you want me, well, I guess I want you
Oh, prett... |
The partys over, called it a night
I hope you had the time of your life
They say that rock will never survive
Its up to youth to keep her alive
And I dont know whats making you tick
Generation narcissistic
Little Miss Selfie, Lonely Boy Slick
Its time you got a brand new fix, baby
Louder, louder, louder than the DJ

Let the rain fall down, let it fall to the ground
Let the rain fall down to the ground
And the birds don’t sing, no, they don’t make a sound
When you’re six feet underground
Well, they cast me out when the word spread around
That I never sang in the church
And it took one night for the town to decide
I’m afflicted by t... |
March on, worker bees!
Know your enemy!
We take our orders given by the queen
We’re not the killers, we’re the worker bees
If you resist us, you will feel our sting
Surrender now before the swarm sets in
Protect the hive from enemies!
Protect the hive from enemies!
Follow the herd mentality!
Can we fight to save our so... |
Buried in the mail before the early morning
Under the frost thats forming his words are calling
Even though alarm bells rang without a warning
All of the clocks keep ticking and time keeps flowing
Everyone that I hold dearly, I try to keep em close
Cause some of them get bitten by the rabbit down the hole
Once they wal... |
Time
Drifts through the sky
Without a reason why
We walk past the flowers
Dont stop for a breath
Until theyre above our heads
We used to fight
Have we made amends?
Father I just cant tell
Watching you spend
The time you have left
Trapped in a cold blue bed
In darkness well rest
Count the days down to one last breath
In... |
Urban Hipster, the new gangster
Fronting by the club
A new wave mannequin packing haircuts
Instead of packing guns
Magazines from overseas
Wont teach you how to feel
They trade in their hearts for indie rock charts
To tell them what is real
When did they assume putting on a costume
Gave them a right to ostracize?
Out o... |
I should have turned and walked away
But I got tangled in your chains
A trail of debt for all to see
You shut the cage and stole the key
Your state of mind revealed
That my love for you was real
They say in time wounds heal
But Ive got nothing left to steal
My mouth is shut, my lips are sealed
You are the crutch of thi... |
Well I tripped, I fell down naked
And I scratched my knees, they bled
Sew up my eyes, need no more
In our game, there is no score
Forgive me father
Why should you bother
Try honesty, try honesty
Hop in your dump truck
Leave us for good luck
Ride over me, ride over me
Take on the whole world
Fight with a young girl

Constant quick fixes
They dont make no sense
Hop on bandwagons
You make me sick
Dont you tell me what you think is right!
When youre living in the shadows
I can tell that you have lost your sight!
When youre living in the shadows
Dont you tell me what you think is right!
When youre living in the shadows
I can tell that... |
Well, I looked at her face
And then I know she changed
Yeah, my heart turned black
Then the sky turned gray
Yeah, my heart turned black
Then the sky turned gray
And so I sat in my room
For twenty-seven days
No, she never called
I had something to say
No, she never called
I had something to say
Well, I dont know much

We tried to stay young by chasing the sun
You blink for too long, the swan sing a song
And all that Ive lost, and all that Ive won
Dont mean nothing more when you open your eyes and theyre gone
After all weve been told, were still flesh and bone
And lifes worth much more than silver and gold
And all that Ive lost, and ... |
All we shared was a mattress
And a lie and an address
Baby, I dont need you
Well, baby, I dont need you
Once occupied by a goddess
Now its a room full of boxes
She said, its time to leave you
But, baby, I dont need you
In a perfect world... her face would not exist
In a perfect world... a broken heart is fixed
In a per... |
Were living underneath the land of sorrow
I can hear the bombs rain down
And how do I explain theres no tomorrow
I can hardly make a sound
Dead silence, a fate we cant escape
Till death do us part in the end
Theyre marching up the main street as my heart beats
Louder than machine gun fire
The sound of all the sirens si... |
Dont wait for a knight in shining armor
Your saviors reflected in the mirror
These flowers have grown from bloodstains on the ground
Go rake them leaves off your grass and my grave
The fact is, everyone bleeds when they shave
Theres no use, so dont deny were just the same
Well take it back
Broken dagger! Southern swagg... |
And when the clock strikes 12, tell me where you gonna be?
Cleaning up the mess we’ve made or watching your TV?
And if you have to ask, then you don’t have a clue
There’s snow in Arizona while they’re bombing in Beirut!
I hope some day… when I’m dead and gone
We learn to right… everything that’s wrong
With loving hands... |
I never bite off more than I can chew
But then she came and bit me
I never bite off more than I can chew
But then she bit my leg
She said, dont wanna work, I wanna play
And live my life like it was Sunday
The only problem is that Sunday only comes
Now once a week and Im a freak but
Were breaking up the city
No time for... |
Tired of all the promises and never coming through
Its easy to pretend until they turn their back on you
And all the ones that bring you down, their colors werent that true
And lifes become a battle that you swore youd never lose
It dont matter what went wrong this time, dont matter what went right
Were always searchin... |
Vanities are only charity
And she makes donations at the Tiffany’s
Life is hard without a credit card to get by, get by
She sold her dreams for security
To a man that now she hardly ever sees
With a cold Martini in her hand, she don’t mind, don’t mind
So throw all your luxuries aside
You can’t take them with you when y... |
{Part I}
Lost in the wind
Without a direction
Possessed by perfection
In this land, if youre awake, youre the enemy
I run away
In search of redemption
A path to ascension
Like an elevator rising to the sun
I scream at the stars, but nobodys listening
Searching for the end
But the journeys the reason for existence
Its t... |
Twisted tongues will place you in their category
Face to face, you’ll hear them tell a different story
Loose lips may sink ships, but honesty’s forever
Eyes of envy try to cut and try to sever
Cowards that hide behind their words
Don’t care whose feelings will get hurt
Beware the voice without a face
That’s hidden unde... |
Oh my girl, youre so hot when you walk you melt snow
And now the disco has finally grown old
Lets buy back our souls
So lets see, we got five bucks between you and me
My mental dishes are finally clean
So clean are we
Cut the curtains, the actors have gone home
Cut the curtains, the actors have gone home

Watching the time bomb ticking away
Watching the time bomb nobody cares
Till its too late
Watching the time bomb ticking away
Watching the time bomb you better pray
Youre somewhere safe
Where transfixed on a pendulum sky
Watch another tank of gasoline run dry
A death stare from a cold, dead eye
As youre chopping up the... |
Its up to you!
This aint no TV show
You watch my head explode
Ten thousand hours everyday
No time to be afraid
Chase up the rattle snakes
Dont let your fear control your fate
The ghost of self denial
It whispers from the grave
The road you cant rely on
Is a risk that you must take
Im runnnin across the tracks,
Oh, Im ... |
Once there was a nation here, now there is no more
Once we fought to change our fears but now this is our war
This is our war
This is our war
Wash your mind out, wheres your morals?
How many people have to live this sorrow?
Life should not be begged or borrowed
How many really wanna change tomorrow?
Were still playing ... |
Crooked minds have gone astray
Have they never learned from yesterday?
Only a fool would wear the crown
One day the kids will tear it down
Yeah
Cant you see the clocks are ticking away?
They try to fit more hours into the day
To see that you was crunching numbers away
Were running out breath just to keep up the pace
An... |
Hello, hello, hello my darling, have we reached the end?
Cause when the stitches fall apart were hanging by a thread
Hello, hello, hello my darling, some things never change
When our words are dipped in gasoline, our love goes up in flames
I tried so hard to get behind your mental barricade
But every time it leaves me ... |
Hey!
Another tragedy has set the scene
For conscious to be revealed
And all the February
February winds are howling
Dont tell me were adversaries
Dont tell me were sworn enemies
Cause we all need necessary
Means to protect what we love
An ocean lies between us
Sufferings a constant we never see
Behind our sanctuary
San... |
A slap in the face
And I cant erase
These things that you say
Dont make it all okay, its not okay
When push comes to shove
Ill put on the gloves
Intentions are cruel
I aint nobodys fool you know it hurts..
My pride, step aside
Cause I dont need your..
Sympathy! Wont get the best of me
Misery! Thats what youre giving me... |
We spent a life together
That should have lasted forever
But now its time to sail on
So take this anchor from my heart
So we can finally drift apart
Before we drown in sorrow
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
I gave you sanctuary
Under the sun we lived carefree
I tried so hard to love you
But then you turned your back on me
Your goo... |
Horses and chariots, churches and states
Devotion turns dangerous when armed with rules of faith
Prisoners and patriots, angels and saints
If minds are persuaded enough compassion turns to hate
So when the tide comes to bury us, together we must stay
Dont let their horses and chariots drag our love away
No!
Borders and... |
Oh, I had a feeling buried inside
Covered beneath a blanket of pride
Oh, I couldnt tell you how my heart felt inside
In so little time
Stand up and run, stand up and run
Stand up and run, stand up and run
Oh, into my arms
Chasing the bright lights, this city got old
You walked out of my life and into the cold
Its hard ... |
This heart dont count on the wicked
These hands dont fight at all
This mind dont do what its told to
These eyes dont cry at all
Dont cry at all, hey-oh… hey-oh…
These eyes dont cry at all, hey-oh… hey-oh…
This heart dont count on the wicked
We face this world alone
When all they want is to break you
Turn anger into hop... |
Man Alive!
Dont stand aside!
While people make demands
At first theyll take your liberties
Then tie them round your hand
Man Alive!
Dont stand aside!

The song has born a brand new day
Conscience has been cast away
Evil has been blessed with praise
Heroes end up in their graves
So who will be our savior now?
Theyve shot your angels to the ground

Forced conversation
Hidden agenda
You think were stupid, how dare you
The rug has not been pulled
Over our eyes, you fool
We can see right through
Tip-toeing villain
Eyes in the ceiling
Your false intentions have worn thin
But weve been in your room
And in your closet too
Weve got one on you
Lies make it better

Alive!
And right before your eyes
Its easy to think twice
A choice can change your life
Angry fists, angry eyes
Thought youd take them by surprise
And unleash all your demons upon them
With your guns and your knives
Left them fighting to survive
Youre the villain but you played the victim
Never took no advice
Did you e... |
Won’t you stop, take a breath
Find a moment to reflect
On the pure and simple choices that we fail to see?
From the worst to the best
From the East Coast to the West
On a never-ending quest to end our misery
So cut to the chase, it’s time to escape
Before it’s too late
Yeah, pick up the pace and catch up with fate
It’s... |
Wherever I go, wherever I go
I have to question the hand that I hold close
Wherever I go, wherever I go
I have to silence the words that you fear most
Dont ever let go, dont ever let go
Are we destined to hit the ground below?
Dont ever let go, dont ever let go
Were at the end of a burning tightrope
Now Im waiting on t... |
Well, I’m scared of my reflection
Is it mine or is it yours?
And I swear I hear the knockin’
But there’s no one at the door
Don’t think I’m losing my perspective
‘Cause I know one thing for sure
They’ve been watching, they’ve been listening
Every whisper, every word
Your sudden movements, sudden movements
Gonna give us... |

Rock and roll can never die

You pay for this, but they give you that

A devil in a midnight mass
Who preyed behind stained glass
A memory of Sunday class
Resurrected from the past
I was told that the world wouldnt believe me
In the cold, sinners world, tried to see them
Hold your breath then count to four
Pinky swears dont work no more
Footsteps down the hallway floor
Getting closer to m... |
Do it again, she said to me
So I nailed my hand to the baseboard floor
Hysterically, laughing at me
She begged the question and I begged for more
Now I water the thorn you rammed
Deep into my side, watch it fertilize
Cause you shoved your finger right down my throat
And you made me puke up all of my pride
Pop the beach... |
Put me on an aeroplane
A million miles away
Shes opened up her book of hate
And tore a brand new page
Tonight Ill find a wishing well
Tomorrows a new day
Tonight Ill find a wishing well, before its too late…
Show me the way, show me the way!
Why do my dreams keep slipping away?
Show me the way, show me the way!

Swimming in the dark, were bound to drift apart
And I just cant go on pretending were in love
We play with matches in the rain but never learn
We try to light it but the fire never burns
You thought that love was just a casting call
Well, it’s our turn to quit before the curtain falls
Dont need to pretend to love me, y... |
You spurn my natural emotions
You make me feel like dirt and Im hurt
And if I start a commotion
I run the risk of losing you and thats worse
Ever fallen in love with someone
Ever fallen in love
In love with someone
Ever fallen in love
In love with someone
You shouldntve fallen in love with?
I cant see much of a future

Lay down, lay down with your drunken fools
I never thought you could be so cruel
And all the rumours I heard were true
You had another man in our room
Peel off the banner just from the wounds
I still have plenty of scars to prove
I’m sick of covering up the truth
So now I’m taking it back from you
From the start, drew ... |
Our first stop is in Bogotá
To check Colombian fields
The natives smile and pass along
A sample of their yield
Sweet Jamaican pipe dreams
Golden Acapulco nights
Then Morocco, and the East
Fly by morning light
Were on the train to Bangkok
Aboard the Thailand Express
Well hit the stops along the way
We only stop for the ... |
Oh this heart was made of gold
Now its blackened like a coal burns red
I need to find a role model
Like a need a hole in my head
Dont need to change the time honey
Im already half past dead
Strike me til I break, then turn me into flames
Cause round and around, you cant go down
Without a pound and an ounce of pain

Another F again I fret
Another cocky hypocrite
Another dirty look from a passer by
Kiddie porn and lunatics
And all the things that make me sick
Another suicide from a sad rock star

You annoying little prick

And you, and you came to me like my alarm
I carved your first and last name in my arm
Now I only wear black so maybe then they will see
Im just a shadow of what Im not supposed to be
You fuel my fire with your laughs and with your frowns
You call me a freak and join the circus, you clown
I heard a man say that I do it ... |
Temperatures rising
Fever is high
Cant see no future
Cant see no sky
My feet are so heavy
So is my head
I wish I was a baby
I wish I was dead
Cold turkey has got me on the run
My body is aching
Goose-pimple bone
I cant see no body
Leave me alone
My eyes are wide open
I cant get to sleep
One thing Im sure of

And when the clock strikes twelve
Tell me where youre gonna be
Cleaning up the mess we made
Or watching your TV
And if you have to ask
Then you dont have a clue
Theres snow in Arizona
While theyre bombing in Beirut
I hope some day
When Im dead and gone
We learn to right
Everything thats wrong

She was the one who would make me feel so fine
And then she walked up to my windshield
With a quirky little smile I rolled down my window and asked her
Hey maybe you would like to have a cigarette with me
Then she gave me a quirky little look and I said, Okay
So we stepped outside and sat on the curb and then we had a ... |
Give it up now!
Hey, you!
I said no, I dont think that I wanna die
And right for this I need a reason why
When you humans act so funny and I need to fill my tummy
I tried, well I lied
I said no, I dont know why I act this way
Something seems to change from day to day
Im feeling kinda silly and my mood seems kinda fitti... |
Need more friends with wings
All the angels I know
Put concrete in my veins
Id always walk home alone
So I became lifeless
Just like my telephone
Theres nothing to lose
When no one knows your name
Theres nothing to gain
But the days dont seem to change
Never played truth or dare
Id have to check my mirror
To see if Im ... |
Well I used to be a little one
But now Im big and strong
Because I used to eat my greens
I used to get the snot beaten right outta me
And then Id go on home and scream
But still Ill fight you for everything you offer me
Ill fight you for everything that you say to me
Ill fight you for everything you offer me
And all yo... |
Kick it, rockers
Bourbon blues on the street, loose and complete
Under skies all smoky blue green
She said I cant forsee a dixie dead shake
So we danced til the sidewalks clean
My memory is muddy
Whats this river that Im in?
I said New Orleans is sinking, man
And I dont wanna swim
Colonel Tom, whats wrong? Whats going ... |
Yeah, yeah!
Maybe its us but I really think that it could be you
We were head over feet, it was ironic that our dreams had come true
And so I packed up all my luggage and headed for the coast
Spandex, peanut butter, and more jam on my toast
We dont mean no harm
Its just honestys priority
And we just broke our break

Go!
With all these questions Im open to any suggestions
And I am facing the problems once faken
And Im keeping the promises maken
And now Im laughing at all the stupid ways that we were acting
And that Ill always be here to be your friend
Ill always be here to lend my hand
Peeking through your window all Im seeing is t... |
I never thought that the day would ever put
A twist on what we thought was true
I smile out loud just because of the way
You make me feel the way you do
Sprawled across my floor I wish that you
Would never have to leave my door
But if this world held a grudge against you
Id hold a grudge against the world
The big scary... |
One, two, three, four, five
I wish I had some thread so I could just sew up your nose
Eternal sleep at least you folded up your clothes
And then you went and you snorted your way off the earth
Ha, but why must you always obey when
Ha, theres so much to say and do
And now youre gone, I know its true
But now the day you ... |
Constant quick fixes, dont make no sense
Hop on bandwagons, you make me sick
Dont you tell me, what you think is right!
When your living in the shadows
I can tell that, you have lost your sight!
When youre living in the shadows
Distant loud chuckles, keep me awake
Awkward in stances wont make you hip
Dont you tell me, ... |
Oh my girl
Youre so hot, when you walk you melt snow
And now that disco has finally grown old
Lets buy back our souls
So lets see
Ya weve got 5 bucks between you and me
My mental dishes are finally clean
So cleared are we
Cut the Curtains the actors have gone home
Cut the Curtains the actors have gone home
The intermis... |
Id never bite off more then I could chew
But then she came and bit me
Id never bite off more then I could chew
But then she bit my leg
She said:
Dont wanna work
I wanna play
And live my life like it was Sunday
The only problem is that Sunday only comes now once a week
And Im a freak but...
Were breaking up the city

How long, and its so long
Just go
A thousand hands will carry into foreign lands
And I will point and Ill smile
Knowing youre filling your memory back
I need you please, I need you so
Go with the flow and Ill watch you go
So go on leave, so go on go
Just to let you know that I love you so
How long, and its so long
Hold... |
Oh my, my, could it be another rhyme?
Im always on the stage but Im never outta time
Come in everybody and shake your shit
You open some fortresses to help me quit
So then you get off your feet and your body will follow
Cause its time to feel the party from the boom to the swallow
I am here, to have some fun, so are yo... |
Now Im feeling older I can see through the shit
Put together the puzzle trying to make my life fit
But sometimes it feels hard and the
So when youre picking up all the pieces trying to
Some thingsll never change when
So before you leave this place
So many people look back swamp
Hearts are cold, youd think the brain... |
Cast off the crutch that kills the pain
The Red Flag waving never meant the same
The kids of tomorrow dont need today
When they live in the sins of yesterday
Well Ive never seen us act like this
Our only hope is the minds of kids
And theyll show us a thing or two
Our only weapons are the guns of youth
Its only time bef... |
Well, I looked at her face and then I knew she changed
My heart turned black and then the sky turned gray!
My heart turned black and then the sky turned gray!
So I sat in my room for 27 days
No she never called, I had something to say!
No she never called, I had something to say!
I dont know much and I dont know how...... |
Hey
Um
I just thought of a thought
This is what was thought up
Of all the battles and the wars that I once fought
We live take a look at the kind
Searching for something that is nowhere to find
We look now, look back to understand why
There are the instincts to love and there are the instincts to die
And repeat repeat ... |
Well Im a preach to the motherfucking king
Ive never been ashamed to ever say my name
Because I praise my parents for the way that they raised me
Never shook a thought of who I am or what I should be, ah
Know what I know and what I know is what I want
And if you dont like my point of view then take a walk

The Lyrics dataset parsed from Genius. This dataset is designed to generate lyrics with HuggingArtists. Model is available here.
en
How to load this dataset directly with the datasets library:
from datasets import load_dataset
dataset = load_dataset("huggingartists/billy-talent")
An example of 'train' looks as follows.
This example was too long and was cropped:
{
"text": "Look, I was gonna go easy on you\nNot to hurt your feelings\nBut I'm only going to get this one chance\nSomething's wrong, I can feel it..."
}
The data fields are the same among all splits.
text: a string feature.| train | validation | test |
|---|---|---|
| 122 | - | - |
'Train' can be easily divided into 'train' & 'validation' & 'test' with few lines of code:
from datasets import load_dataset, Dataset, DatasetDict
import numpy as np
datasets = load_dataset("huggingartists/billy-talent")
train_percentage = 0.9
validation_percentage = 0.07
test_percentage = 0.03
train, validation, test = np.split(datasets['train']['text'], [int(len(datasets['train']['text'])*train_percentage), int(len(datasets['train']['text'])*(train_percentage + validation_percentage))])
datasets = DatasetDict(
{
'train': Dataset.from_dict({'text': list(train)}),
'validation': Dataset.from_dict({'text': list(validation)}),
'test': Dataset.from_dict({'text': list(test)})
}
)
