1.Should Have Been Mine

You shut me out
Don't hear a word, i'm sayin'
Just can't understand, this crazy game you're playin'
Need a little time to make it right
Wipe the tears from your eyes, if it takes all night

Look into my eyes
And see into my heart
'cause the pain i see in you
Is tearin' me apart

Don't turn away, slip into yourself
Open the door and let me in
My mind is racin', tryin' find the answer
To this crazy game you're playin'

Look into my eyes
And see into my heart
'cause the pain i see in you
Is tearin' me apart
Look into my eyes
And see into my heart
'cause the pain i see in you
Is tearin' me apart

Let me change the way you feel
Look right through me and see nothing of what i see
With frustration at my side
All i want is to set you free

Look into my eyes
And see into my heart
'cause the pain i see in you
Is tearin' me apart

Look into my eyes
And see into my heart
'cause the pain i see in you
Is tearin' me apart


2.Deep

Lyrics:dan stadnicki

You hope that something will happen
But you're stuck with what you've got
In a maze you're lost, thinking of things that are not
Real enough to make things different
Though i don't know what it means
Confused and mixed up when everything's deep
And i don't know what it means
And i don't know why, i don't know why

What you got, serenity
What is not deep
Your mind is ripe, your mind is weak
Can't stop, it's just so deep

You change while everyone else is still the same
Therapy is quite the road to take
Especially when you're in such a state
That the ones you love are the ones you hate
You crack a smile when you don't understand
The touch of a loved one's hand
I don't know why,
Instead of laughing you sit there and cry

What you got, serenity
What is not deep
Your mind is ripe, your mind is weak
Can't stop, it's just so deep

And i don't know why
And i don't know why
And i don't know why
And i don't know why
And i don't know why
I don't know why
I don't know why
I don't know why
I don't know why
I don't know why
I don't know why
I don't know why

What you got, serenity
What is not deep
Your mind is ripe, your mind is weak
Can't stop, it's just so deep


3.Mistake

Lyrics:d. robin dennis and ryan dennis

Do you know how to find what you're looking for?
Stuck in a maze of promises, don't know what's real or not
Promise you everything, i'll never lie
Do you even know what it is you want?
So how can i even try?

It's all a mistake
How long will it take?
When the dreams are all gone
How long till you wake?
It's all a mistake
How long will it take?
When the dreams are all gone
How long till you wake?

Don't know how it came to this
Just try to figure out what to do
How can he give you what you need
You think that i can not?
You're in a state of mind games
This seems like a checkmate
None of us will win
And i don't think i can wait

It's all a mistake
How long will it take?
When the dreams are all gone
How long till you wake
It's all a mistake
How long will it take?
When the dreams are all gone
How long till you wake

~ bridge ~

It's all a mistake
How long will it take?
When the dreams are all gone
How long till you wake
It's all a mistake
How long will it take?
When the dreams are all gone
How long till you wake

How long till you wake?
How long till you wake?
How long till you wake?


4.Face Down

Lyrics:ryan dennis
Music:serial joe
© 1999

Lost amidst this false reality
Don't feel a thing anymore
You're on your knees and begging
Face down on the floor

You try to fade into the background
But you're always seen
Face down, hit the ground
You do know you can't stay here anymore

Crooked, tangled
A heap of nothingness
Lying there in shambles,
A burning ball of stress

You try to fade into the background
Afraid of the hunter
Face down, hit the ground
You know you can't stay here anymore

Silence comes,
Like darkness to the night
Alone and peaceful
There's no one to hurt you where you are now
Safe from evil
See the pain
Dwelling in your eyes
Won't be long now

You try to fade into the background
Afraid of the hunter
Face down, hit the ground
One last breath
One last breath
One last breath
One last breath

6.Shallow

Lyrics:dan stadnicki & ryan dennis
Music:serial joe
© 1999

So close yet so distant
Fading face embrace is resistant
Words kept hidden
And the shadows dark
Your forbidden heart is shallow
Your emotions are hollow
You haven't learned it's time

'cause you ain't comin' back
'cause you ain't comin' back
'cause you ain't comin' back
'cause you ain't comin' back

It'll never be the same old song
It will never be the same
The cards are stacked
And time's run out
And everything's a game
So sing me your lullaby

'cause i need to know why
Why i keep falling',
Keep fallin'

'cause you ain't comin' back
'cause you ain't comin' back
'cause you ain't comin' back
'cause you ain't comin' back
'cause you ain't comin' back
'cause you ain't comin' back
'cause you ain't comin' back
'cause you ain't comin' back
'cause you ain't comin' back

You know you're shallow
Used to be on the top, but now you've dropped
Lost all your common sense
And now your brain's stopped
There nothing left in your mind except yourself
You gave it all up - your home, your friends, and your health
Now you're out on your own, you've lost your soul
Get a hold of yourself - know your role

So close yet so distant
Fading face embrace is resistant
Words kept hidden
And the shadows dark
Your forbidden heart is shallow,
Your emotions are hollow
You haven't learned it's time

'cause you ain't comin' back
'cause you ain't comin' back
'cause you ain't comin' back
'cause you ain't comin' back
'cause you ain't comin' back
'cause you ain't comin' back
'cause you ain't comin' back
'cause you ain't comin' back
Ain't comin' back
Ain't comin' back
Ain't comin' back
Ain't comin' back


7.Push

Lyrics:ryan dennis
Music:serial joe
© 1999

Standing
In the corner of my mind
I try to run, but i'm so far behind
I don't know the meaning of this life anyway
I try to find a way to get around this place

I'm gonna face this head on
I'm gonna push until these chains are gone

Step into the doorway
Of this hole where i reside
I kick the wall down,
Step to the other side
I need the feeling of your calm embrace
I try to find the way to get around this place

I'm gonna face this head on
I'm gonna push until these chains are gone
I'm gonna face this head on
I'm gonna push until these chains are gone

I'm gonna face this head on
I'm gonna push until these chains are gone
I'm gonna face this head on
I'm gonna push until these chains are gone


8.Sanity

Lyrics:ryan stever & d. robin dennis
Music:serial joe
© 1999

I still don't know
What you mean to me
But i'm gonna lose my cool
You better go
'cause i'm going crazy
I think i'm losin' all my sanity

We're goin' all the way down
To the end of our sanity
Blowin' it straight down
To the end of my sanity

I start to hear things
In my head
And try to block 'em out
You still can't run, there's nowhere to hide
'cause it's the end of my sanity

We're goin' all the way down
To the end of our sanity
Blowin' it straight down
To the end of my sanity

We're goin' all the way down
To the end of our sanity
Blowin' it straight down
To the end of my sanity

Feel it slip away yeah,
But i can't turn back now
Feel it slip away
But i can't turn back now
Feel it slip away yeah,
But i can't turn back now
I can't turn back now,
Won't turn back


9.Centipede

Lyrics:dan stadnicki & ryan dennis
Music:serial joe
© 1999

Ya keep on losing your mind
I'm afraid i can't say the same
Complicated reasons are why
I'm not the one who is left to blame
Your constant crap is what i'm left to use
Can't take this kind of senseless abuse
You're left with nothing else to say
Co-ordinations not the only simple way

(squirm, squirm)
Go home and don't come back
(squirm, squirm)
Go home and don't come back

(squirm, squirm)
Go home and don't come back
(squirm, squirm)
Go home and don't come back

Look at you, you little dirty mindless wreck
Worthless as a minor tiny insect
Crush your body, you're a centipede
Your mixed up yeah,
So reach inside and bleed and bleed
Surely you won't mess with me
I'm telling you this ain't hostility
Confused your judgment, it's insanity
Your jaded by your own immunity

(squirm, squirm)
Go home and don't come back
(squirm, squirm)
Go home and don't come back

(squirm, squirm)
Go home and don't come back
(squirm, squirm)
Go home and don't come back

Confused your judgment, it's insanity
Your jaded by your own immunity
Confused your judgment, it's insanity
Your jaded by your own immunity
Confused your judgment, it's insanity
Your jaded by your own immunity


10.Confused

Lyrics:dan stadnicki & ryan dennis
Music:serial joe
© 1999

You back track, everybody knows just that
You're paranoid about the things that just don't cut it flat
Quit your pullin' all the tricks from you sleeve
But only god knows what the hell you mean
Stare out my window at the broken streets below
Feel the angst within me - soon i'm gonna blow
Got a rage built up inside of me i'll never show
Love to stay and chat but i gotta go

You second guess your life
Tryin' to make it all fit
Gotta stop your beggin'
And be more sure of it
Inquisitive minds wanna interfere
Try n' figure out what the hell i'm doin' here
Turn around the corner it's a brand new day
Strange the way today seems just like yesterday
Try your best to free yourself from anxiety
Livin' for today, you gotta make it your priority

Complicated,
Mind all faded
And a part of you,
Lost and jaded
Complicated,
Mind all faded
And a part of you,
Lost and jaded
Complicated,
Mind all faded
And a part of you,
Lost and jaded
Complicated,
Mind all faded
And a part of you,
Lost and jaded

Complicated,
Mind all faded
And a part of you,
Lost and jaded
Complicated,
Mind all faded
And a part of you,
Lost and jaded
Complicated,
Mind all faded
And a part of you,
Lost and jaded
Complicated,
Mind all faded
And a part of you,
Lost and jaded


11.Outrage

Lyrics:dan stadnicki & ryan dennis
Music:serial joe
© 1999

You wanna take it to the next level
Walkin' among the street and burn like the devil
I don't know what's causin' your rage
Everybody wants to know why, 'cause it's an outrage
Listen up or pay the price, don't know what's nice
You know it ain't right
Madness and hate, you fill your veins
I know you're different 'cause now it's not the same (huh)

Your recklessness caused you pain
Unfair game or runaway train, barely tamed
Should have been cooped up in a cage
'cause it's an outrage, listen up, that's the way!
Your recklessness caused you pain
Unfair game or runaway train, barely tamed
Should have been cooped up in a cage
'cause it's an outrage, listen up, that's the way!

Night is clear, got no fear
But you're scared to tears
What's up with that ya hear
I don't listen to your problems
'cause i can't solve 'em
And you know that fact be true
I should have left you astray
But i don't have my way, 'cause it's an outrage
You know it's an outrage

Your recklessness caused you pain
Unfair game or runaway train, barely tamed
Should have been cooped up in a cage
'cause it's an outrage, listen up, that's the way!
Your recklessness caused you pain
Unfair game or runaway train, barely tamed
Should have been cooped up in a cage
'cause it's an outrage, listen up, that's the way!

~solo~

Your recklessness caused you pain
Unfair game or runaway train, barely tamed
Should have been cooped up in a cage
'cause it's an outrage, listen up, that's the way!
Your recklessness caused you pain
Unfair game or runaway train, barely tamed
Should have been cooped up in a cage
'cause it's an outrage, listen up, that's the way!


12.Denial

Lyrics:d. robin dennis & ryan dennis
Music:serial joe
© 1999

Yo and i bring it around again with a fresh flow
Low blow, tippin' ya over like a deck of cards
I'll tell you where you are, stuck at the starting line with
Nothing left to say,
Your ends unravel and your tips they start to fray
You think you know me, you're inside of my head
But you ain't understood one single word that i have said
Follow the leader is the name of the game you play
You wanna be takin' it but i'm gonna have my own way

Erase the face of your enemies
The right is mine yeah deny this
Erase the face of your enemies
The right is mine try 'n deny this

Take it down, you've got that look on your face
You think you're up there but you don't even know your place
You think you're something, make me do what you will
But i ain't buyin' you know that i have had my fill
See your body fallin', deeper in a hole
It's all over now you've gotta reach inside your soul
Fightin' to control
Denying what you know
The war inside your brain
Is like a sound insane

Erase the face of your enemies
The right is mine yeah deny this
Erase the face of your enemies
The right is mine try 'n deny this
Erase the face of your enemies
The right is mine yeah deny this
Erase the face of your enemies
The right is mine try 'n deny this

Erase the face of your enemies
The right is mine yeah deny this
Erase the face of your enemies
The right is mine try 'n deny this
Erase the face of your enemies
The right is mine yeah deny this
Erase the face of your enemies
The right is mine try 'n deny this
