The Great Southern Trendkill 

It's wearing on my mind, I'm speaking all my doubts aloud 
You rob a dead mans grave, then flaunt it like you did create 
If I hit bottom and everythings gone 
In the great Mississippi, please drown me and run

It's digging time again, you're nurturing the weakest trend

Those with the heart and the brain to get past this 
Can spot a pathetic without even asking

Fuck your magazine, and fuck the long dead plastic scene 
Pierce a new hole, if Hell was "in" 
you'd give your soul

(Chorus) 
THE GREAT SOUTHERN TRENDKILL 
That's right, 
THE GREAT SOUTHERN TRENDKILL

Buy it at a store, from MTV to on the floor 
You look just like a star, it's proof you don't know who you are

It's bullshit time again, you'll save the world within your trend

Politically relieved, you're product sold and well received 
The right words spoken gold, if I was God you'd sell your soul to...

(Chorus)

War Nerve 

Truly, fuck the world, for all it's worth, every inch of Planet 
Earth, fuck myself, don't leave me out, but don't get 
involved, don't corner me 
Inside, ulcer, unjust bastards, file out face first 
Meet the lies and see what you are 
(Pre) 
It's forcing you down, and it's grinding against you 
Let the war nerve break 

(Chorus) 
For every fucking second the pathetic media pisses on me and 
judges what I am in one paragraph - Look here - Fuck you all 

Expect the worse, you bleeding heart, but kill me first 
before it starts, yes my cock is getting hard, we are 
born different after all 
Invite mayhem, produce weapons, shoot out, burn down 
No CNN or media now

(Pre) 
(Chorus)

All the money in the fucking world couldn't 
buy me one second of trust or one ounce of faith in anything you're about 
Fuck you all

Nothing is worth the sleep that I've lost 
Apologies unacceptable now 
A blistered revenge awaits in me 
This is fucking loveless 
Hate 
Hate mail is not read, in jail instead 
Hate 
The Lord knows, there's worse 
Ignore, this curse 
Hate

Drag the Waters 

A smack on the wrists is the words from the mouth 
of the outsiders, lawyers, police 
A small price to pay for the dope and the guns 
And the rape, it should all be O.K. 
Your father is rich, he's the judge, he's the man, 
he's the God that got your sentence reduced 
But in the back of his mind, he well knows what 
he'd find if he looked a little deeper in you - in you

(Chorus) 
Drag the waters some more 
Like never before 

(Chorus)

Sweet is the slice and the lips - you're gonna have 
that woman - she is your favorite lay 
Promised you (swore) that no one had been there, 
and she was going to keep it that way 
Let it move in, you got thin, and got high, and 
your money went and so did your friends 
But she's by your side, and her smile cannot hide 
the premonition of the beckoning end - the end

(Chorus) 
(Chorus)

In with it, out with it

10's 

My skin is cold, transfusion with somebody morose and 
old, drop into fruitless dying 
It was tempting and bared, the whoring angel rising 
Now burning prayers, my silent time of losing

(Chorus) 
My foes - they can't destroy my body 
Colliding slow, like life itself 

Long for the blur, we cannot dry much longer 
Cement to dirt, disgusted with my cheapness 

(Chorus) 
(Chorus)

Reaching down, staring up (at the forgiver)

13 Steps To Nowhere 

Whores 
Your windows boarded up, your private lives exposed 
The talk shows pump it up, lab rats diseased for show 
We're doomed to use the slang, outbreak of drug roulette 
A church burned to the ground, not even noticed yet

13 Steps (To Nowhere)

Whores

A backwards swastika, the black skin riddled in lead 
A Nazi Gangster Jew, it beats a dog that's dead 
It's in to use the slang, outbreak of gun roulette 
The cross slants to the side, will prove the damnedest yet

13 Steps - Leads to nowhere

The backlash dislocates, an untimely reign of death 
The wolf poked with the stick, awaits with cancerous breath 
(Leads to nowhere)

Outsiders still suppose, there's Holy streets to roam 
The truth should not surprise, your homes were built on lies 

Suicide Note PT. I 

Cheap cocaine, a dry inhale, the pills that kill and take 
the pain away 
Diet of life, shelter without, the face that cannot 
see inside yours and mine

(Pre) 
When I'm hiding, when I need it, it lets me 
breathe, for our handle on this life, I don't believe 
this time 

(Chorus) 
Would you look at me now? 
Can you tell I'm a man? 
With these scars on my wrists 
To prove I'll try again 
Try to die again, try to live through this night 
Try to die again..... 

Forever fooling, free and using, sliding down the 
slide that breaks a will 
Mothers angel, getting smarter, how smart are 
you to regress unfulfilled? It's a damn shame, 
but who's to blame?

(Pre) 
(Chorus)

Suicide Note PT. II 

Out of my mind, gun up to the mouth 
No pretension, execution, live and learn 
Rape and turn 
Fret not family, nor pre-judged army 
This is for me, and me only, cowards only 
Try it

(Chorus) 
Don't you try to die, like me 
It's livid and it's lies and makes graves 

It's not worth the time to try, to replenish a 
rotting life 
I'll end the problem, facing nothing, fuck you off, 
fuck you all 
Tortured history, addict of misery, this exposes me 
for weakness is a magnet - watch me do it

(Chorus)

Graves descending down 
Why would you help anyone who doesn't want it, 
doesn't need it, doesn't want your shit advice 
when a mind's made up to go ahead and die? 
What's done is done and gone, so why cry?

(Chorus) 

Living Through Me (Hell's Wrath) 

I cannot take the take, your condition was nod awake 
A selfish cryer, boldface liar, robbing all of what 
you could take in 
Stabbed towards a death, a dirty smelling girl 
Shit decisions, no provisions, filling veins with juice 
of chaos

(Chorus) 
Painted face, olive drab, swollen hole, empty bag, 
sunken eyes, whining dog, it's times like this 
you should pray for never 
I broke your fucking mold, then threw away the 
cast, new religion and new provisions, it's amazing 
you're alive

Drop the needle and stop what you're changing into 
Erase the end dissolving, disgrace is needed more

So I mended severed ties, through flesh we cauterized 
the undeserving, sliming, writhing, I filled you up 
with watered promise

(Chorus)(2nd half) 
Spitting teeth, oral lust, alley fuck, angel dust, anal whore, bleeding 
knees, it's times 
like this to pray for murder 

(Chorus #2) 
So now I've seen it all, Hells' wrath , no 
man has greater glory, cause now you're living through me 

So I'm done with saving you, a gift unto myself, a 
tired savior, a wasted favor, and I'm lucky I'm alive

Floods 

A dead issue, don't wrestle with it, deaf ears are sleeping 
A guilty bliss, so inviting (let me in), nailed to the cross

I feel you, relate to you, accuse you 
Wash away us all, take us with the floods 
Then throughout the night, they were raped and executed 
Cold hearted world 
Your language unheard of, the vast sound of tuning out 
The rash of negativity is seen one sidedly, burn away the day

The nervous, the drifting, the heaving 
Wash away us all, take us with the floods 
Then throughout the day mankind played with grenades 
Cold hearted world 
And at night they might bait the pentagram 
Extinguishing the sun 
Wash away man, take him with the floods

The Underground in America 

Put in position to wage teenage mayhem 
A common affair for the ones who are juiced 
If it is weakness that grants us the power 
We thrive on what's stronger than most of the world

Glass breaks/the dimming lights/sweat, heat and profane debate/ 
the smart ones stay on the outside/while drunken heads and 
arms erupt/centered man swings a punch, spits a tooth, postures 
odd/a punk rock escapade/five bucks a head to be king dick in the crowd

We are the ones who must sport the position 
cheap beer/trendy clicks/lesbian love is accepted and right/ 
shaved heads meet hair in the mix/blending the 80's and 90's 
with hate

Shows on/dates canceled/kicked out for reasons that seem so 
unfair/skin crusts against the cops/a foregone conclusion that's 
tired and beat 
Ringworm,crabs and lice/V.D. ecstasy, speed and horse/a 
heaven/of unmatched importance/an honor of sex to be stuck by the 
punk 
Rich homes/with money and food/abandoned for the bums on the 
street/a lifestyle that's unexplainable/don't try and save what is 
all meant to be

If it is free/from (a) family that's seen/you can just keep it 
if you must beg/it's better instead/you must follow the etiquette 
You know when it rains you're in your bed at home 
You act so real when you are alone 
You better not let the mohawked crowd see 
Give it five years, you'll retire your piercings 
You must admit that you mimic the weaklings

(REPRISE) SANDBLASTED SKIN

Scrape it, grind it, peel it, hide it 
The trend is over and gone forever 
Shelf it, box it, save it, frame it 
You won't need that anymore, it's on sale at the dollar store 
Waste of time, pantomime, circus doll, at the local mall

Exterminate, it's all fake 
Exterminate, it's all fake

Sandblast yourself 
Sandblast yourself

Sandblast 
Sandblast

It's getting old, old, old
