Times were tough and I crumbled
Tides were ruff and I fumbled
Push came to shove and I
Pushed back so hard it tore us both apart...
Could have been so beautiful with you...
Should have been so beautiful with you...
Could have been, so beautiful with you...
Could have been, should have been
but it wasn't and that's the truth!
So let the court assemble
And judge this here fool
But how to punish someone
Who just lost the best thing that they ever had?
Could have been so beautiful with you...
Should have been so beautiful with you...
Could have been, so beautiful with you...
Could have been, should have been
but it wasn't and that's the truth!

Aggressive, no-limits, relentless pursuit
War crimes, killing, battery and assault
Not sent to capture or compromise
Sent to return, packing heads on dry-ice
When the gloves come off, where will the buck stop?
Will the buck stop? When the gloves come off?
When the gloves come off?
When the gloves come off, where will the buck stop?
Will the buck stop?
Will they wash their hands with black water?
Will they clean their hands of black water?
Corporate animism, finally run amok
17 dead and no one gives a fuck!
'Cause the west-fall-act is gonna cover their back
Case closed, court adjourned and that's a fact!
When the gloves come off, where will the buck stop?
Will the buck stop? When the gloves come off?
When the gloves come off?
When the gloves come off, where will the buck stop?
Will the buck stop?
Will they wash their hands with black water?
Will they clean their hands of black water?

I see a world about to kill itself
A world full of misery
And violence, and silence
When it comes to speaking your mind
I see a world full of discontent
A world that seems hell-bent
On blowing itself off of the fucking map!
It's up to you
To make the world a better place to live in
It's up to you
To do the things you told me, you want to do
It's up to you to change...
It's up to you and me!
I see a species and it's extinction
A species bread on hate
And violence, and silence
A species bread to follow...
I see a species and it's certain death
A slow and painful death
Like cancer; rotting...
From the inside out...
It's up to you
To make the world a better place to live in
It's up to you
To do the things you told me, you want to do
It's up to you to change...
It's up to you and me!

Media Perfection (DEMO)
02:06

Gotta be beautiful, gotta look like
Those people on TV
To have it their way,
We'll go through everything
'Cause hair cuts are simply not enough
Where would you be without clothes and makeup?
Gotta reach media perfection
'Cause nowadays, being yourself just isn't enough!
But why stop there
When there's so many fun things you could do?
Face-lifts, implants or
Liposuctions to name a few
It seems we all don't make the grade.
Too fat, too ugly, too underpaid!
Gotta spend all our money on beauty creams
And douse ourselves with them, before we go to sleep
And maybe... One day...
We'll all wake up beautiful!!!!
I don't think so...
