Seether - Words As Weapons

 
All I really want is something beautiful to say...
(All I really want is something beautiful to say...)

Keep me locked up in your broken mind
I keep searching, never been able
To find a light behind your dead eyes
Not anything at all

You keep living in your own lie
Ever deceitful and ever unfaithful
Keep me guessing, keep me terrified
Take everything from my world

Say, "Can you help me?" right before the fall
Take what you can and leave me to the wolves

Keep me dumb, keep me paralyzed
Why try swimming? I'm drowning in fable
You're not that saint that you externalize
You're not anything at all

(All I really want is something beautiful to say)

It's all so playful when you demonize
To spit out the hateful, you're willing and able
Your words are weapons of the terrified
You're nothing in my world

Say, "Can you help me?" right before the fall
Take what you can and leave me to the wolves

All I really want is something beautiful to say
Keep me guessing, keep me terrified
All I really want is something beautiful to say
You keep living in your own lie
All I really want is something beautiful to say
To never fade away
I wanna live forever
All I really want is something beautiful to say
To never fade away
I wanna live forever

You keep living in your own lie
Keep me guessing, keep me terrified

All I really want is something beautiful to say
(All I really want is something beautiful to say)

Say, "Can you help me?" right before the fall?
Take what you can and leave me to the wolves

All I really want is something beautiful to say
Words are weapons of the terrified
All I really want is something beautiful to say
Keep me guessing, keep me terrified
All I really want is something beautiful to say
To never fade away
I wanna live forever
All I really want is something beautiful to say
To never fade away
I wanna live forever

Seether - Gasoline (Up!)

 
Last night I saw that beauty queen
Watched her paint her face on
I wanna be that magazine
That she bases life on

I wanna waste her monthly blood
Wanna get some on my love
Wanna get some gasoline
And burn the house down

She's got nothing to say
She's got bills to pay
She's got no one to hate
Except for me

Last night I saw that beauty queen
She's getting high on Revlon
I wanna be that magazine
That she wastes her life on

I wanna waste her monthly blood
Wanna get some on my love
Wanna get some gasoline
And burn the house down

She's got nothing to say
She's got bills to pay
She's got no one to hate
Except for me
Me

When I saw that beauty queen
Watched her paint her face on
I wanna be the one unclean
That she wipes her ass on

Wanna waste her monthly blood
Wanna get some on my love
Wanna get some gasoline
And burn the house down

She's got nothing to say
She's got bills to pay
She's got no one to hate
Except for me
She's got nothing but shame
She takes pills for pain
She's got no one to blame
Except for me
For me

Seether - Walls Come Down

 
I still remember the day that you entered my world
Filled with splendor, a light in the darkness unfurled
Well I figured it out, the louder they shout the more I fall
I'm reliving it now, the essence of how I'll lose this all

So take this doubt and grant me something more
I won't last without a reason to endure

For now and ever, I can't help but get in my way
I feel the pressure, the imminent cloud of dismay
Well the quicker I find a peace in my mind, then I'll feel sane
But the thicker the grime, the deeper the shine I can't reclaim

So take this doubt and grant me something more
I won't last without a reason to endure
Don't mistake me now for an empty shell unsure
When the walls come down we're left with something pure

I still remember the day that you entered my world
Filled with splendor, a light in the darkness unfurled
Well I figured it out, the louder they shout the more I fall
I'm reliving it now, the essence of how I'll lose this all

So take this doubt and grant me something more
I won't last without a reason to endure
Don't mistake me now for an empty shell unsure
When the walls come down we're left with something pure

No, we don't belong out here
No, we don't belong out here
No, we don't belong out here
No, we don't belong out here

Seether - Regret

 
I still remember your name
The sound of your voice
The smell of your clothes
I know that things aren't the same
But given the choice
I wish that you'd froze

Well, it's always the blame
It seems to rejoice
Whenever I'm low
I know that these are the ways
To keep out the noise
When my mind slows

So don't
Don't make me come home yet
Let me steep in my regret
I've seen the ways that
Love can pass for hate

I still remember the pain
It follows me close
Wherever I go
I stow the feelings away
And try to compose
Whatever I show

Well, it's always the same
And everyone knows
What's written on my stone
I know that these are the days
It starting to show
I've never quite flown

So don't
Don't make me come home yet
Let me steep in my regret
I've seen the ways that
Love can pass for hate

Ooh... Ooh...

I'm sick of the pain!
I'm sick of the pain!
I'm sick of the pain!
I'm sick of the pain!

I'm sick of the shame!
I'm sick of the shame!
I'm sick of the shame!
I'm sick of the shame!

I'm sick of it!

So don't
Don't make me come home yet
Let me steep in my regret
I've seen the ways that
Love can pass for hate

So don't
Please don't let me forget
How I played with ill intent
I've been the reason
Love has passed for hate

Seether - Wasteland

 
At the end of the day
You're so soft spoken
Don't hang your head for me
Nobody seems to believe in the reasons you feel so lonely
Nobody seems to accept them the way that I do
Oh

This teenage wasteland of ours
I feel too much

I remember the way you left me broken
Don't shed a tear for me
Nobody seems to be willing to save me from purgatory
Nobody seems to be able to shed the treadwheel
Oh

This teenage wasteland of ours
I feel too much
This drug won't take on for hours
I need this crutch

Say something
Say something
Say something
Say something
Now
Say something
Say something
Say something
Say something
Now

This teenage wasteland of ours
I feel too much
This drug won't take on for hours
I need this crutch

Now
I need this crutch

Seether - Broken

 
I wanted you to know I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away
I keep your photograph, I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

'Cause I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough
'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away

The worst is over now and we can breathe again
I wanna hold you high, you steal my pain away
There's so much left to learn, and no one left to fight
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

'Cause I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough
'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away

'Cause I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough
'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away

Seether - Careless Whisper (Wham! cover - Up!)

 
I feel so unsure
As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor
As the music dies
Something in your eyes
Calls to mind a silver screen
And all of its sad goodbyes

I'm never gonna dance again
These guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should've known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I'd been given
So I'm never gonna dance again...
The way I danced with you

Time can never mend
The careless whispers of a good friend
To the heart and mind
Ignorance is kind
There's no comfort in the truth
Pain is all you'll find

I'm never gonna dance again
These guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should've known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I'd been given
So I'm never gonna dance again...
The way I danced with you

Tonight the music seems so loud
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Maybe it's better this way
We'd hurt each other with the things we want to say
We could have been so good together
We could have lived this dance forever
Now who's gonna dance with me

Please stay
I'm never gonna dance again
These guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should've known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I'd been given
So I'm never gonna dance again...
The way I danced with you

Seether - Fade Away

 
I wanna be there when you call
I wanna catch you when you fall
I wanna be the one you need
I wanna be the one you breathe

Today’s the day we’ll fade away, oh
Today’s the day we’ll fade away, oh
Today’s the day we’ll find our way grown
Today’s the day we’ll fade away

I wanna be there when you cry
And when you’re down I’ll help you fly
I wanna be the one you need
I wanna be the one you breathe

Today’s the day we’ll fade away, oh
Today’s the day we’ll fade away, oh
Today’s the day we’ll find our way grown
Today’s the day we’ll fade away, oh

But I’m coming back,
and I’m taking back everything I can
It’s breaking me up and tearing me up
It’s all I have
And I’m coming back,
and I’m taking back everything I can
It’s breaking me up and tearing me up
It’s all I have

Today’s the day we’ll fade away, oh
Today’s the day we’ll fade away, oh
Today’s the day we’ll find our way grown
Today’s the day we’ll fade away, oh
Today’s the day we’ll fade away, oh
Today’s the day we’ll fade away

Seether ft. Amy Lee - Broken

 
I wanted you to know that I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away
I keep your photograph and I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away

You've gone away, you don't feel me here anymore

The worst is over now and we can breathe again
I wanna hold you high, you steal my pain away
There's so much left to learn, and no one left to fight
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

'Cause I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough
'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away

'Cause I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough
'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away

'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away

You've gone away
You don't feel me here anymore

Seether - Let You Down

 
If I could speak I'd tell you all my fears and deprivations
If I could feel I'd take away your pain
If I could bleed I'd show you all my scars and imperfections
If I could breathe I'd hold you in my veins

You've got me feeling like an animal
Beat down in fear and paralyzed
You've got me feeling like I have no other hand to hold
In this assisted suicide

So say something beautiful
Say what you're keeping inside
This anticipation
I will only let you down
Say something meaningful
Say what you're trying to hide
This anticipation
I will only let you down

If I could breed I'd show you all my infantile obsessions
If I could sleep I'd hold you in my head
If I was strong I'd keep you close and render you defenseless
If I was gone I'd hope you'd take my place

You've got me feeling like an animal
Beat down in fear and paralyzed
You've got me feeling like I have no other hand to hold
In this assisted suicide

So say something beautiful
Say what you're keeping inside
This anticipation
I will only let you down
Say something meaningful
Say what you're trying to hide
This anticipation
I will only let you down

So say something beautiful
Say what you're keeping inside
This anticipation
I will only let you down
Say something meaningful
Say what you're trying to hide
This anticipation
I will only let you down

Stone Sour - Bother

 
Wish I was too dead to cry
My self-affliction fades
Stones to throw at my creator
Masochists to which I cater
You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds

Wish I was too dead to care
If indeed I cared at all
Never had a voice to protest
So you fed me shit to digest
I wish I had a reason;
my flaws are open season
For this, I gave up trying
One good turn deserves my dying

You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds

Wish I'd died instead of lived
A zombie hides my face
Shell forgotten
with its memories
Diaries left
with cryptic entries

And you don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds

You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on:
I'll never live down my deceit

Seether - Rise Above This

 
Take the light, and darken everything around me
Call the clowns and listen closely, I'm lost without you

Call your name every day when I feel so helpless
I'm fallen down but I'll rise above this, rise above this

Hate the mind, regrets are better left unspoken
For all we know, this void will grow
Everything's in vain, distressing you though it leaves me open
Feels so right, but I'll end this all before it gets me

Call your name every day, when I feel so helpless
I've fallen down (fallen down), but I'll rise above this, rise above this
Call your name everyday, when I seem so helpless
I've fallen down (fallen down), and I'll rise above this, rise above this doubt

I'll mend myself before it gets me
(I'll mend myself before it gets me)
I'll mend myself before it gets me
(I'll mend myself before it gets me)

Call your name every day, when I feel so helpless
I've fallen down but I'll rise above this, rise above this
Forty-eight ways to say that I'm feelin' helpless
I've falling down, falling down, but I'll rise above this, rise above this, rise above this, rise above this doubt

Seether - Gasoline

 
Last night I saw that beauty queen
Watched her paint her face on
I wanna be that magazine
That she bases life on

I wanna waste her monthly blood
Wanna get some on my love
Wanna get some gasoline
And burn the house down

She's got nothing to say
She's got bills to pay
She's got no one to hate
Except for me

Last night I saw that beauty queen
She's getting high on Revlon
I wanna be that magazine
That she wastes her life on

I wanna waste her monthly blood
Wanna get some on my love
Wanna get some gasoline
And burn the house down

She's got nothing to say
She's got bills to pay
She's got no one to hate
Except for me
Me

When I saw that beauty queen
Watched her paint her face on
I wanna be the one unclean
That she wipes her ass on

Wanna waste her monthly blood
Wanna get some on my love
Wanna get some gasoline
And burn the house down

She's got nothing to say
She's got bills to pay
She's got no one to hate
Except for me
She's got nothing but shame
She takes pills for pain
She's got no one to blame
Except for me
For me

 

Seether - Never Leave

 
Will I fall again into dismay?
Will I be ashamed of crying?
And I know it's never been the way that I described
But I am afraid of trying
She's the one who keeps me all excited
She keeps me begging for more
She's the one who deems me uninvited
Now it's over

Never leave me, and don't deceive me
I'll keep on crawling my friend
Never tease me and don't leave me here
It's all the same in the end

Now I find that I am weaker fare
That I am ashamed of lying
And I know things never feel the way that's right inside
And I am afraid of dying
'Cause you're the one who keeps me all excited
You keep me begging for more
You're the one who keeps me uninvited
Now it's over
Never leave me, and don't deceive me
I'll keep on crawling my friend
It's only a symbol you've got me falling away
And I am afraid
Take back what I said
It's all the same in the end
It's all the same in the end
It's all the same in the end
It's only a symbol

Seether - Nobody Praying For Me

 
I'm a whisper lost upon wind
I'm the ember that'll burn you down
I'm the water that'll drown you
I'm a star that's just a black hole now
I'm a terrifying danger
I'm a fruit decaying on the ground
I'm a swallower of anger
I'm the tree that falls and makes no sound
I make no sound…

'Cause if I stand up, I'll break my bones
And everybody loves to see a fall unfold
Ain't nobody giving up, 'cause nobody gives a fuck
Stand up and break my bones
Everybody wants what they just can't hold
There's nobody praying for me

I am fungus in the forest
I'm a lizard with a poison tongue
I'm the child in the manger
I'm the one who sacrificed his son
Rust is showing on my armor
I am wheezing like an old man done
I'm a product of my anger
I'm the bullet in a loaded gun

Stand up, I'll break my bones
And everybody loves to see a fall unfold
Ain't nobody giving up, 'cause nobody gives a fuck
Stand up and break my bones
Everybody wants what they just can't hold
There's nobody praying for me

'Cause if I stand up, I'll break my bones
And everybody loves to see a fall unfold
Ain't nobody giving up, 'cause nobody gives a fuck
Stand up and break my bones
Everybody wants what they just can't hold
There's nobody praying for me
(There's nobody praying for me)
There's nobody praying for me
