Train of Thought

Don't
Tell me what's in
Tell me how to write
Don't tell me how to win
This fight
Isn't your life
It isn't your right
To take the only thing that's
Mine
Proven over time
It's over your head
Don't try to read between the
Lines
Are clearly defined
Never lose sight of
Something you believe in

Takin' in the view from
The outside
Feeling like the underdog
Watching through the
Window I'm on the outside
Living like the underdog

I've been trying
To justify you
In the end
I will just defy you

To those who understand
I extend my hand
To the doubtful I demand
Take me as I am

Not under your command
I know where I stand
I won't change to fit your plan
Take me as I am

Still
Running up hill
Swimming against the current
I wish I weren't so
Fucked
Feels like I'm stuck
Lost in a sea of mediocrity
"Slow down,
You're thinking too much
Where is your soul?"
You can not touch
The way I
Play
Or tell me what to say
You're in the way
Of all that I believe in

Takin' in the view from
The outside
Feeling like the underdog
Watching through the
Window I'm on the outside
Living like the underdog

I've been wasting my breath
On you
Open minds will descend
Upon you

To those who understand
I extend my hand
To the doubtful I demand
Take me as I am

Not under your command
I know where I stand
I won't change to fit your plan
Take me as I am

To those who understand
I extend my hand
To the doubtful I demand
Take me as I am

Not under your command
I know where I stand
I won't change to fit your plan
Take me as I am

We're taught unconditional love
That blood is thicker than water
That a parent's world would revolve
Always around their son or their daughter

You pretended I was your own
And even believed that you loved me
But were always threatened by some
Invisible blood line that only you could see

You took advantage of an outreached hand
And twisted it to meet your every need
"Gimme time to re-charge my batteries,
I'll see her when she's older and I'll bounce her on my knee"

Well listen to me you ungrateful fool
Here comes a dose of reality
You'll go to your grave a sad and lonely man
The door is now closed on your pathetic little plan

On and on and on and on it goes
It's so easy to run away with nothing in tow

How can you ever sleep a wink at night
Pretending that everything is alright
And have the nerve to blame this mess on me

Never in my life have I seen someone
So ignorant to the damage he has done
You're the rotted root in the family tree

I tried your 4 bill therapy
I tried to make amends
But nothing could lure you out of your selfish shell again

Expecting everyone to bow and kiss your feet
Don't you see respect is not a one way street
Blaming everyone for all that you've done wrong
I'll get my peace of mind when you hear this song

On and on and on and on it goes
And with every passing day true colors show

How can you ever sleep a wink at night
Pretending that everything is alright
And have the balls to blame this mess on me

Never in my life have I seen someone
Oblivious to the damage he has done
You're the rotted root in the family tree

Watch where you walk
Don't you dare cross the crooked step
Watch the way you talk
Don't cross the crooked step

''"This is the regret that you make
This is the...
Regret that you make
And the something you take

Mistakes like this... you don't make
You make some and ok
Not ok, sometimes, you make other ones
Know that you should do better

The goddamn regret
The goddamn regret!
And I'll die
Now I'll die
The biggest regret of my life... I let my love go
What did I do?
The fucking regret
What did I do?
What did I do?"

"We just don't connect"

"Well, I want my family back."
"Well, you can't have it. I'm sorry for you, but it's too late."

"Can't you see anything except in terms of how it affects you?!"

"I can't love anybody"

"I gave you money, I gave you a car, I took you in
Don't that mean something?"

" ...I'm disappointed in you"

"You deserve to die alone for what you've done"

"You cocksucker, I hated you
I want you to know that I hate your fucking guts
Just fucking die, you fuck"

"I'm your blood - I'm your family"
"You're not my family - not anymore"

"When your own flesh and blood renounces you...
...you have no choice but to renounce them"''

On and on and on and on it goes
Chauvinistic, heartless, selfish, cold

How can you ever sleep a wink at night
Pretending that everything is alright
And have the balls to blame this shit on me

Never in my life have I seen someone
So fucking blind to the damage he has done
You're the rotted root in the family tree

Hey You, Hey You
I'm right here
Conscience fading
Can't get through

Oh Lord
Helpless
Confused
Head swayed
Eyes glazed
And mine teared

She's losing control
What can I do
Her vacant eyes
Black holes
Am I losing you

[Instrumental]

How can this be? Why is he the chosen one?
Saint gone astray with a scepter and a gun
Learn to believe in the mighty and the strong
Come bleed the beast, follow me it won't be long

Listen when the prophet speaks to you
Killing in the name of God
Passion twisting faith into violence
In the name of God

Straight is the path leading to your salvation
Slaying the weak, ethnic elimination
Any day we'll all be swept away
You'll be saved as long as you obey

Lies, the tools of the devil inside
Written in Holy disguise
Meant to deceive and divide us all

Listen when the prophet speaks to you
Killing in the name of God
Passion twisting faith into violence
In the name of God

Blurring the lines between virtue and sin
They can't tell where God ends and mankind begins
They know no other life but this
From the cradle they are claimed

Listen when the prophet speaks to you
Killing in the name of God
Passion twisting faith into violence
In the name of God

Hundreds of believers lured into a doomsday cult
All would perish in the name of God
Self-proclaimed messiah led his servants to their death
Eighty murdered in the name of God

Forty sons and daughters un-consenting plural wives
Perversions in the name of God
Underground religion turning toward the mainstream light
Blind devotion in the name of God

Justifying violence citing from the Holy Book
Teaching hatred in the name of God

[Instrumental section]

Listen when the prophet speaks to you
Killing in the name of God
Passion twisting faith into violence
In the name of God
In the name of God

Religious beliefs - fanatic obsession
Does following faith lead us to violence?
Unyielding crusade - divine revelation
Does following faith lead us to violence?

[Chant:]
Mine eyes have seen the glory
of the coming of the Lord
he is trampling out the vintage
where the grapes of wrath are stored
he had loosed the fateful lightning
of his terrible swift sword
his truth is marching on.

glory, glory, hallelujah
glory, glory, hallelujah
glory, glory, hallelujah...

Ako to len môže byť?
Prečo je on ten Vyvolený?
Svätí odišli zvádzať na zlé cesty
so žezlom a so zbraňou.

Uč sa veriť v moci a sile.
Príď, vykrvácaj šelma.
Nasleduj ma, nebude to dlho.

ref.: Počúvaj, keď prorok k tebe hovorí.
Zabíjanie v mene Boha.
Umučenie prevracia vieru v násilie.
V mene Boha.

Priamo vpred je cesta, ktorá ťa vedie ku spáse.
Vyvraždenie slabých, etnická likvidácia.
V ktorýkoľvek deň my všetci budeme uchvátený
a ty budeš zachránený tak dlho, ako budeš poslúchať.
Klamstvá - nástroje diabla vo vnútri
napísané v svätej pretvárke.
Určené, aby nás všetkých podvádzali a rozdelili.

ref.:

Rozmazané hranice medzi cnosťou a hriechom
Nemôžu povedať, kde Boh končí a ľudstvo začína.
Nepoznajú iný život okrem tohto,
od kolísky sú presviedčaný...

ref.:
--------------------- INSTRUMENTAL PART ------------------------

... Stovky veriacich vábia do kultu Dňa Posledného Súdu.
Všetci chcú zomrieť v meno Boha.
Samozvaný mesiáš vedie svojich služobníkov do smrti,
80 zavraždených v meno Boha.
40 synov a dcér, neplnoleté manželky
perverznosti v mene Boha.
Skryté náboženstvo obracia vpred do hlavného svetla
zaslepená oddanosť v mene Boha.

Ospravedlnujúce násilie citované zo svätej knihy
učia nenávisť v mene Boha.
