Taken from "Queen Of The Damned Soundtrack"
 
You think you're smart
You're not, it's plain see
That you want me to follow
It's killing me, let's see
You've got the gall
Come take it all...
 
The jury is coming
Coming to tear me apart
All this bitching and moaning
Come on it's on
 
I'm trapped in this world
Lonely and fading
Hartbroke and waiting
For you to come
We are stuck in this world
That's not meant for me
For me
 
So what you got
One last shot
It seems to me
That you're not needed
Come on
It's killing me, let's see
You got the gall
Come take it all...
 
The jury is coming
Coming to tear me apart
All this bitching and moaning
Come on it's on
 
Come on it's on
Come on it's on
Come on it's on
Come on it's on
 
I'm trapped in this world
Lonely and fading
Heartbroke and waiting
For you to come
We are stuck in this world
That's not meant for me
For me
 
I'm trapped in this world
Lonely and fading
Heartbroke and waiting
For you to come
We are stuck in this world
That's not meant for me
For me
 
I'm trapped in this world
Lonely and fading
Heartbroke and waiting
For you to come
We are stuck in this world
That's not meant for me
For me
 
For me
For me

FORSAKEN
 
Performed By David Draiman

Taken from "Queen Of The Damned Soundtrack"
 
I'm over it
You see I'm falling in the vast abyss
Clouded by memories of the past
At last I see
 
I hear it fading, I can't speak it
Or else you will dig my grave
You feel them finding, always whining
Take my hand now be alive
 
You see I cannot be forsaken
Because I'm not the only one
We walk amongst you feeding, raping
Must we hide from everyone?
 
I'm over it
Why can't we be together embrace it?
Sleeping so long taking off the mask
At last I see
 
My fear is fading, I can't speak it
Or else you will dig my grave
You feel them finding, always whining
Take my hand now be alive
 
You see I cannot be forsaken
Because I'm not the only one
We walk amongst you feeding, raping
Must we hide from everyone?
 
You see I cannot be forsaken
Because I'm not the only one
We walk amongst you feeding, raping
Must we hide from everyone?
 
Everyone
Everyone...

Taken from "Queen Of The Damned Soundtrack"
 
You fell away, what more can I say?
The feelings evolved, I won't let it out
I can't replace your screaming face
Feeling the sickness inside
 
Why won't you die?
Your blood in mine
We'll be fine
Then your body will be mine...
 
So many words can't describe my face
This feelings evolved, so soon to break out
I can't relate to a happy state
Feeling the blood run inside...
 
Why won't you die?
Your blood in mine
We'll be fine
Then your body will be mine...
 
Why is everything so fucking hard for me?
Keep me down to what you think I should be!
Must you tempt me and provoke the ministry?
Keep on trying I'm not dying so easily
 
(I will not die)
Why is everything so fucking hard for me?
(I will not die)
Why is everything so fucking hard for me?
(I will not die)
 
Why won't you die?
Your blood in mine
We'll be fine
Then your body will be mine

Your blood in mine
We'll be fine

I've watched you change
Into a fly

In you
It's like you never
Had wings
Now you feel
So alive
I've watched you change
 
I took you home
Set you on the glass
I pulled off your wings
Then I laughed
I watched you change
In you
It's like you never
Had wings
Now you feel
So alive
I've watched you change
 
It's like you never
Had wings ahhh, ahh, ahhh, ahh, ahhh, ahhh, ahh, ahhh, ahh
 
I look at the cross
Then I look away
Give you the lungs to
Blow me away

In you
It's like you never
Had wings
Now you feel
So Alive
I've watched you change
Now you feel Alive
You feel Alive

REDEEMER
 
Performed By Marilyn Manson
Written By Jonathan Davis + Richard Gibbs
 
©Warner-Barham Music, LCC/Zomba Songs Inc.
 
Taken from "Queen Of The Damned Soundtrack"
 
The hunger inside given to me, makes me what I am
Always it is calling me, for the blood of man
They say I cannot be this, I am jaded, hiding from the day.
I can't bare, I cannot tame the hunger in me
 
Oh, I say I did and always searching, you can't fuck with me.
So instead you'll taste my pain.
The hunger inside given to me, makes me feel alive.
Always out stalking pray, in the dark I hide.
Feeling, falling, hating, feel like, I am fading, hating life.
 
They say I cannot be this, I am jaded, hiding from the day.
I can't bare, I cannot tame the hunger in me...
Oh, I say I did and always searching, you can't fuck with fate.
So instead you'll taste my pain.
 
You say your life I'm taking,
always bothering me,
I can't take this anymore,
I'm failling,
always smothering me.
 
You look down on me, hey what you see, take this gift from me, you will soon be me...
 
Nothing seems exciting, always the same hiding
Hiding
 
It's haunting me.
It's haunting me.
It's haunting me.
It's haunting me.
 
It's haunting me...

DEAD CELL
 
Performed By Papa Roach
Written By Papa Roach
 
©SKG Music, LLC
 
Taken from "Infest Album"
 
Born with no soul, lack of control
Cut from the mold of the anti-social
Plug them in and turn them on
Process date, make yourself a bomb
 
What is your target
What is your reason
 
Do you have emotions, is your heart freezing
Seizing this opportunity to speak
Ya didn't say nothin but turn your fucking cheek
 
Dead cell
Dead cell
 
Sick in the head, living but dead, hear what I said
Jah nutty warrior, nothing's scarier
Kids are getting sick like malaria
Situation getting harrier, throwing up all types of barriers
 
I'm tellin ya the kids are getting singled out
Let me hear the dead cells shout
 
Dead cells
Dead cells
 
Born with no soul lake of control
Cut from the mold of the anti-social
Plug them in and turn them on
Process the data
Make yourself the bomb
 
Stop pointing fingers cause we are the guilty
Of clean cut lines and truth that's filthy
Believe what is the root of the word
Out comes lie when it's cut into thirds
 
I don't believe what my eyes behold, No
I don't believe what my ears told, No
 
Sezin' this opportunity to speak
I'm saying something don't turn your fucking cheek
 
Dead cell
Dead cell
 
Born with no soul lake of control
Cut from the mold of the anti-social
Plug them in and turn them on
Process the data
Make yourself the bomb
 
Born with no soul lake of control
(Dead cell)
Cut from the mold of the anti-social
(Dead cell)
Plug them in and turn them on
(Dead cell)
Process the data

Make yourself the bomb

PENETRATE
 
Performed By Godhead
Written By Jason Miller + Ullrich Hepperlin
 
©Priority Records
 
Taken from "2000 Years Of Human Error Album"
 
I've got nothing to penetrate
And I've got nothing to elevate
I can't seem to concentrate
Cause I've got nothing to consecrate
 
I wouldn't know the solution.
Cause this ain't my revolution.
I practice my prostitution
And spread the people's pollution.
 
I've got nothing to meditate
I've got nothing to dedicate
I can't seem to separate
Cause I've got nothing to liberate.
 
I wouldn't know the solution.
Cause this ain't my revolution.
I practice my prostitution
And spread the people's pollution.
 
I wouldn't know the solution.
Cause this ain't my revolution.
I practice my prostitution
And spread the people's pollution.
 
I've got no one to aggravate
And I've got no one to emulate
You want me to assimilate
But I'm not going to imitate.

Walking, waiting
Alone without a care
Hoping and hating
Things I can't bear
 
Did you think it's cool
To walk right up
To take my life

Well did you?

I see hell in your eyes
Taken in by surprise (surprise)
Touching you makes me feel alive
Touching you makes me die inside

I see hell in your eyes
Taken in by surprise
And touching you makes me feel alive
(I see hell in your eyes)
Touching you makes me die inside
 
I've slept so long without you
It's tearing me apart too
How'd it get this far
Playing games with this old heart
I've killed a million petty souls
But I couldn't kill you
 
I've slept so long without...you

I see hell in your eyes
(Touching you makes me die inside)
Taken in by surprise

Taken from "The Sickness Album"
 
(Do you feel that?)
Ooh ah ah ah ah!
Ooh ah ah ah ah!
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Drowning deep in my sea of loathing
Broken your servant I kneel
(Will you give it to me?)
It seems what's left of my human side
Is slowly changing...in me
(Will you give it to me?)
 
Looking at my own reflection
When suddenly it changes
violently it changes
Oh no, There is no turning back now
You've woken up the demon...in me
 
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Open up your hate, and let it flow into me
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
You mother get up
Come on get down with the sickness
You fucker get up
Come on get down with the sickness
Madness is the gift, that has been given to me
 
I can see inside you, the sickness is rising
Don't try to deny what you feel
(Will you give it to me?)
It seems that all that was good has died
And is decaying in me
(Will you give it to me?)
 
It seems you're having some trouble
In dealing with these changes
Living with these changes
Oh no, the world is a scary place
Now that you've woken up the demon...in me
 
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Open up your hate, and let it flow into me
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
You mother get up
Come on get down with the sickness
You fucker get up
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Madness is the gift, that has been given to me
 
And when I dream
And when I dream
And when I dream
And when I dream!!!!
No mommy, don't do it again
Don't do it again
I'll be a good boy
I'll be a good boy, I promise
No mommy don't hit me like that mommy?
Don't do it! You're hurting me oh-oohh!
Why did you have to be such a bitch?
Why don't you,
Why don't you fuck off and die?
Why can't you just fuck off and die?
Why can't you just leave here and die?
Never stick your hand in my face again bitch
FUCK YOU!!!
I don't need this shit
You stupid sadistic abusive fucking whore
Would you like to see how it feels mommy?
Hear it comes, get ready to die!
 
Ooh ah ah ah ah!
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Open up your hate, and let it flow into me
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
You mother get up
 
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
You fucker get up
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Mad-ness has now come over me

Taken from "Letting Go Album"
 
Strapped down and heavy
Tied up and bound
This weight I carry
This weight I've found
So let...me be the one to say
I've really had enough
 
Downfallen on (or maybe down, falling?)
(Yes, you meant the world to me)
My sweet love
So headstrong
Strong
 
Watch me...fall
 
One down to many
You let me down
Won't think what could be
Can't feel much now
 
Downfallen on
(Yes you meant the world to me)
My sweet love
So headstrong
(Are you?) this is whispered and hard to pick up
Strong
 
Watch me
Change this world inside of you
Change this world inside of you
 
Does it really mean that much to you
To hide your fear, to test the way I feel?
To test the way I feel
To test the way I feel
To test the way I feel
 
naaaahhhhh
 
Watch me crawl
Watch me break
Watch me crawl
watch me throw it all away
 
Downfallen on
(Yes you meant the world to me)
My sweet love...
So headstrong
Strong
 
I can't believe the things you say
So wrongful how I feel this way
I'm sleeping to relieve this strain
So calmly, sadly, softly
Just let it all just drift away
Let it all just drift away

Taken from "Warner Bros. Album"
 
Finally recover and the mood is right
looking up into a neon sky
child in me takes over, guess it's been too long
since the last time that I tried to fly
 
Finally I find when I lose control
Inside my body crumbles
It's like therapy for my broken soul
Inside my body crumbles
 
All I need's a moment, chance to get away
From the stressfulness of everyday
Know if I don't question and I never doubt
Everything is gonna be okay
 
Finally I find when I lose control
Inside my body crumbles
It's like therapy for my broken soul
Inside my body crumbles...
 
(I don't know if I'll be alright)
(I don't know if I'll be alright)
It is okay to be myself
(I don't know if I'll be alright)
(I don't know if I'll be alright)
Why do we always have to fight
(I don't know if I'll be alright)
(I don't know if I'll be alright)
It's alright
 
Finally I find when I lose control
Inside my body crumbles
It's like therapy for my broken soul
Inside my body crumbles
 
(I don't know if I'll be alright)
 
Finally I find when I lose control
Inside my body crumbles
(I don't know if I'll be alright)
It's like therapy for my broken soul
Inside my body crumbles...

BEFORE I'M DEAD
 
Performed By Kidneythieves
Written By Free Dominguez + Bruce M. Somers
 
©Extasy Records International
 
Taken from "Zerøspace Album"
 
Moon hangs around
A blade over my head
Reminds me what to do before I'm dead
Night consumes light
And all I dread
Reminds me what to do before I'm dead
 
The sun reclines
Eats my mind
Reminds me what to leave behind
Light eats night
And all I never said
Reminds me what to do before I'm...
 
To see you
(To see you)
To touch you
(To touch you)
To see you
(To see you)
To touch you
(To touch you)
 
(To touch you)
(To touch you)
(To touch you)
(To touch you)
(To touch you)
 
Epochs fly, reminds me
What I hide, reminds me
The desert skies
Cracks the spies
Reminds me what I never tried
The ocean wide salted red
Reminds me what to do before I'm...
 
To see you
(To see you)
To touch you
(To touch you)
Feel you
(Feel you)
Tell you
(Tell you)
 
The sun reclines, reminds me
The desert skies, reminds me
The ocean wide salted red
Reminds me what to do before I'm...
 
Feel you
To touch you
Feel you
Tell you
Feel you
