SICK OF MYSELF
I'm so sick of myself so sick of myself
Don't wanna be me
Wanna be someone else
I'm laying down on the road
Looking up at the stars
Don't wanna be where I am
Wanna be where you are
Chorus
I'm so sick, sick of myself
I'm so sick, sick of myself
I'm so sick, sick of myself
I know life is short
I heard them say
It's better to burn right out
Then fade away
I'm laying down on the road
Looking up at the stars
Don't wanna be where I am
Wanna be where you are
Chorus
I've got to be who I see in my mind
She's waiting on me and I'm done wasting time
I lost myself somewhere down the line
Now I'm done, I'm done, with being numb
I'm in love with myself
In love with myself
I've gotta do it
'Cause there's no one else
I'm laying down on the road
Looking up at the stars
Don't wanna be where I am
Wanna be where you are
Chorus

BEAUTIFUL TERRIBLE
Got me by the throat
Put me on the floor
Day like today
Wonder what it's all for?
A little bit of kindness
Goes a long long way
If there was more
We wouldn't be in this state..... hate
When I asked her
With tears in my eyes
Why, why, why?
She said baby, baby, baby
It's just life
Kiss you or kill you
Crush you or thrill you
It's an unpredictable
Mystical ride
Moment to moment
Day to day
You never know
What you're gonna find
When I asked her
With tears in my eyes
Why, why, why?
She said baby, baby, baby
That's just life
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, terrible life
(Ad lib) ... beautiful...
​
When you wake up in the morning
you never know what you're gonna find
It's a dangerous world
I hope we make it in time

ZEBRAS AND BUTTERFLIES
Drank the whiskey, all the whiskey (repeat)
Drank the whiskey, all the whiskey
Should have lasted 3 days
And the zebras and butterflies
Have all passed away
Give her more pills, genius pills
Let them say she’s acting strange
No matter what it takes
Just get her out on the stage
Voice of angel, mind unstable
Or so they like to say
Ride your coat tails, tragedy sells
And baby it’s you who’s paid
27, there’s no heaven
Just this Rock and Roll cage
Unruly beautiful
Getting unsuitable for their gaze
(Chorus)
Drank the whiskey, all the whiskey
Should have lasted 3 days
And the zebras and butterflies
Have all passed away
Give her more pills, genius pills
Let them say she’s acting strange
No matter what it takes
Just keep her on the stage
Woke up high and had a good thought
Knocked it down with tanqueray
The ladies sick and you’re addicted
to her fame
27 what you’ve given is Here to stay
Alone on a Saturday
Demons driven her away
(Chorus)
Drank the whiskey, all the whiskey
Should have lasted 3 days
And the zebras and butterflies
Have all passed away
Give her more pills, genius pills
Let them say she’s acting strange
No matter what it takes
Just keep them on the stage
Little girl lost
Diva payed cost
The world mourns it’s loss....

GO AND BE FREE
You can't be free here
It was never meant to be
You get your teeth out
And snarl at conformity
You are the wild one
You threaten the sedate
If we could love you
It is us who would be saved
​
(Chorus)
Go and be free
Go and be free
You're not ours to keep
You're not ours to keep
No oh no no (repeat)
we've gotta get you outta here
This is a factory
You get your claws out
And scratch at, the illuminati
If they could let you
Be yourself, you could be great
But they will crush you yeah
They will rush you too your grave
Chorus....
PLENTY OF TIME (TO DIE)
Close your eyes baby
It’s better for you
Go to sleep
Just like they want you to
Keep watching your tv
‘Cause there’s nothing you can do
And remember you are free
To do whatever they tell you to
(Chorus)
Wake up wake me up baby
There’s plenty of time to die
Wake up wake me up save me
There’s plenty of time to die
They’ve got us fragile now
Like birds with broken wings
We used to fly didn’t we?
Will we ever again
Write us up wipe us out
There’s nothing left to talk about
So now they lay me down, down
Will I ever rise again
Chorus
I’m in the desert now
To set my mind free
Altering the state of your reality
Turn us off, lock us up
You’re never gonna shut us up
We occupy the streets tonight
Because we know we’ve got the right
(Spoken)
If I lay down in my mind
Would you lie down with me
And see the endless possibilities
They want us numb, dumb
Unquestioning
My path unswerving towards the strange
Enlightened, deranged
It’s not too late I’m here
To claim my fate!
Wake up, Wake up, Wake up
Wake up, Wake!
Chorus
