Tool - Pushit (live) (Salival)

We've been...
We've been trying something
a little different this tour.
We've been looking at
one of our songs
from a different angle,
under a different light,
so we can hopefully kind of
see it almost for the first time.
We'd like try that for you tonight, is that okay?

We're gonna need your help though.
We need your help
and your permission,
So we need you to find
a comfortable space,
that's not only comfortable,
but vulnerable.
I want you to shut your eyes and go there,
and we'll meet you on the other side..




I saw that gap again today,
while you were begging me to stay
Take care not to make me enter,
if I do, we both may disappear
if I do, we both may disappear

Saw that gap again today,
while you were begging me to stay
Managed to push myself away
and you as well, my dear
and you as well
Pushed you away, my dear
Pushed you away
Pushed you away
Pushed you away, my dear

I will choke until I swallow
Choke this infant here before me
What are you but my reflection?
Who am I to judge or strike you down?
Who am I to judge or strike you down?

But you're pushing and I'm shoving you
and your pushing me and I'm shoving you

Rest your trigger on my finger
Bang my head upon the fault line
You better take care not to make me enter,
if I do, we both may disappear
if I do, we both may disappear

But you're pushing and I'm shoving you
And your pushing me and I'm shoving you

Still love me, you still love me,
you still love me, you still love me

We're pushing and we're shoving
and you're pushing and I'm shoving
And we're still love me, you still love me,
you still love me, you still love me

You're pushing and we're shoving
And I'm pushing as your shoving
And I'm slipping back into... the gap again
I feel alive when you touch me...
I feel alive when you hold me... down

Slipping back into...
Slipping back into you

I am somewhere I don't wanna be, yeah
Put me somewhere I don't wanna be
Push me somewhere I don't wanna be
Seeing someplace I don't wanna see
Never wanna see that place again

Saw that gap again today,
while you were begging me to stay
Managed to push myself away
and you as well, my dear

If, when I say, I may fade like a sigh if I stay,
you minimize my movement anyway,
I must persuade you another way

Pushing and Shoving and
Pushing and Shoving and
Pushing me
There's no love in fear.

Staring down the hole again.
Hands are on my back again.
Survival is my only friend.
Terrified of what may come, ow yeah.

Remember I will love you,
as I claw your fucking throat away
It will end no other way
It will end no other way

Puscifer - Momma sed (live)

Wake up, son o' mine,
momma's got somethin' to tell you:
Changes come
Life will have its way
with your pride, son.
Take it like a man.

Suck it up, son o' mine,
thunder on your horizon
Changes come
keep your dignity
take the high road
take it like a man

howm, howm

Listen up, son o' mine,
momma got something to tell you
all about growin' pain:
life will pound away
where the light don't shine, son.
Take it like a man

Wake up, son o' mine,
storm's on your horizon.
Changes come
Keep your dignity,
take the high road.
Take it like a man

Momma sed: like the rain,
like a kidney stone,
it's just a broken heart, son
This pain will pass away
This pain will pass away
This too shall pass away
This too shall pass away


Changes come (changes come)
keep your dignity (keep your dignity)
take the high road (take the high road)
take it like a man (take it like man)

Momma sed: like the rain, (this too shall pass)
like a kidney stone, (this too shall pass)
it's just a broken heart, son
This pain will pass away
This pain will pass away
This too shall pass away
This too shall pass away
This too shall pass away
This too shall pass away

Linkin Park - Black Birds

[Mike]
Drop, like, get up
Get to the streets, try to lock that: get up
Face full of beat, twenty, hot: get stood up
Pace to the beat, like a beach-
rock and you block on repeat
Speak full of gut, like a front-to-front
J ran outa skinnies, 'nother one to fuck
Lay the sick ones down and the bells'll ring
Put pennies on the eyes, let the dead men sing

[Chester]
I shiver and shake the warm and cold
I'm alone, on my own
In every mistake I dig this hole,
through my skin and bones

It's harder starting over,
than never to have changed

With black birds following me
I'm digging out my grave
They close in, swallowing me
The pain, it comes in waves
I'm getting back all I gave

I slept though the shade as daylight fades,
as I waste... away
It traps me inside: mistakes I made,
that's the price... I pay

It's harder starting over,
than never to have changed

With black birds following me
I'm digging out my grave
They close in, swallowing me
The pain, it comes in waves
I'm getting back what I gave

[Mike]
I drop to the floor, like I did before
stop watchin, I'm coppin, I can't be more
what I want 'n what I need: over constant war
like the well full of boys and- a riding core
the blood goes thin, the fever stins
and I shake from the hell, that the habits bring
lay the sick ones down; the bells'll ring
put pennies on the eyes; let the dead men sing

[Chester]
Black birds following me,
I'm digging out my grave
They close in, swallowing me
the pain, it comes in waves
I'm getting back what I gave
I'm getting back what I gave
I'm getting back what I gave

MGMT - Pieces of what

When the world has turned
Paralyzed and wrong
Cold blooded claws never offered
anything at all
Past the point of love
Shattered and untied
Waiting to pick up the pieces
That make it all alright

But pieces of what
Pieces of what
Pieces of what
Doesn't matter any more

Moonlight on my floor
Shining through the roof
They got the city surrounded
As if I needed proof
I forgot my fear
Feelings on the rise
Buried by all of the pieces
Falling from the sky

But pieces of what
Pieces of what
Pieces of what
We used to call home
Pieces of what
We used to call home

Then I drag us tea
And shallow water still
At the belgian gates
I waited for my meal

Kelly Clarkson - You found me

Is this a dream? If it is,
please, don't wake me from this high
I'd become comfortably numb
Until you opened up my eyes
To what it's like, when everything's right
I can't believe

You found me when no one else was lookin'
How did you know just where I would be?
Yeah, you broke through all of my confusion
The ups and the downs and you still didn't leave
I guess that you saw what nobody could see
You found me
You found me

So, here we are and that's pretty far
When you think of where we've been
No going back, I'm fading out
all that has faded me within
You're by my side, now everything's fine
I can't believe

You found me when no one else was lookin'
How did you know just where I would be?
Yeah, you broke through all of my confusion
The ups and the downs and you still didn't leave
I guess that you saw what nobody could see
You found me
You found me

And I was hiding 'till you came along
And showed me where I belong
You found me when no one else was lookin'
How did you know?
How did you know?

You found me when no one else was lookin'
How did you know just where I would be?
Yeah, you broke through all of my confusion
The ups and the downs and you still didn't leave
I guess that you saw what nobody could see
You found me (You found me, when no one else was lookin')
You found me (How did you know just where I would be?)

You broke through all of my confusion
The ups and the downs and you still didn't leave
I guess that you saw what nobody could see
The good and the bad and the things in between
You found me
You found me

Dredg - Sang real

I'm the addict on the corner
I'm the lawyer in the tower
I'm the body with the coroner
No, the leader with all the power
You're the pillow, the cool side
The sand during high tide
The cocktail, poolside
The water when clouds collide

From the inside out we were formed
From the inside out we will fall
Soon this all will come to an end...

I'm a local but a foreigner
Still the addict yet I'm sober
Still the body with the coroner
Many friends yet still a loner
You're the pillow, the cool side
The sand during high tide
The cocktail, poolside
The water when clouds collide

From the inside out we were formed
From the inside out we will fall
Soon this all will come to an end...
Soon this all will come to an end...

From the inside out we were formed
From the inside out we will fall
Soon this all will come to an end...
Soon this all will come to an end...

P.O.D. - Alive

Everyday is a new day
I'm thankful for every breath I take
I won't take you for granted (I won't take you for granted)
So I learned from my mistakes

It's beyond my control, sometimes it's best to let go,
whatever happens in this lifetime
So I trust in love (so I trust in love)
You have given me peace of mind

I, I feel so alive
For the very first time
I can't deny you (I feel so alive)
I, I feel so alive
For the very first time
And I think I can fly (fly)

Sunshine upon my face (sunshine upon my face)
A new song for me to sing
Tell the world how I feel inside (Tell the world how I feel inside)
Even though it might cost me everything
Now that I know this, so beyond my control this
I can never turn my back away
Now that I've seen you (Now that I've seen you)
I can neva look away

I, I feel so alive
For the very first time
I can't deny you (I feel so alive)
I, I feel so alive
For the very first time
And I think I can fly (fly)

Yea now that I know you
I could never turn my back away
And now that I see you
I could neva look away
Yea now that I know you
I could neva turn my back away
Now that I see you
I believe no matta what they say!

I, I feel so alive
For the very first time
I can't deny you (I feel so alive)
I, I feel so alive
For the very first time
And I think I can fly (fly)

I, I feel so alive
For the very first time (For the very first time)
For the very first time
And I think I can fly (fly)
I, I feel so alive
For the very first time
And I think I can fly
And I think I can fly (fly)
And I think I can fly (fly)
And I think I can fly (fly)

Demon Hunter - Fading Away

It's in this wake that I find myself
Losing the will to resume this hell
When every breath is a dying wish
It's harder to follow the point of this

This broken place that I call my home
Has deepened the sorrow that I have sown
And I can't erase what is in my heart
I want it to finish before it starts

My own solution insufficient again
No false illusion, this devouring threat
I break the vessel, giving air to its red
And open my fate to the darkened sky

I've been fading away
I've been waiting on the call to reach my veins
Ready or not
No attention to waste
Every sorrow of the soul will read my name
When I cease to exist

So now I've come to the final sleep
I pray that forgiveness is mine to keep
I know it's hard to forget this man
Driving the failure into your hands

My own solution insufficient again
No false illusion, this devouring threat
I break the vessel, giving air to its red
And open my fate to the darkened sky

I've been fading away
I've been waiting on the call to reach my veins
Ready or not
No attention to waste
Every sorrow of the soul will read my name
When I cease to exist
When I cease to exist

I've been fading away
I've been waiting on the call to reach my veins
Ready or not
No attention to waste
Every sorrow of the soul will read my name
When I cease to exist

I've been fading away
I've been waiting on the call to reach my veins
Ready or not
No attention to waste
Every sorrow of the soul will read my name
When I cease to exist

When I cease to exist

Tool - Aenema

Some say the end is near.
Some say we'll see armageddon soon.
I certainly hope we will.
I sure could use a vacation from this

Bull shit three ring circus sideshow of
Freaks here in this
hopeless fucking
hole we call LA
The only way to fix it is to flush it all away.
Any fucking time. Any fucking day.
Learn to swim, I'll see you down in Arizona bay.

Fret for your figure and
Fret for your latte and
Fret for your lawsuit and
Fret for your hairpiece and
Fret for your prozac and
Fret for your pilot and
Fret for your contract and
Fret for your car. It's a

Bullshit three ring circus sideshow of
Freaks here in this hopeless fucking hole we call LA
The only way to fix it is to flush it all away.
Any fucking time. Any fucking day.
Learn to swim, I'll see you down in Arizona bay.

Some say a comet will fall from the sky.
Followed by meteor showers and tidal waves.
Followed by faultlines that cannot sit still.
Followed by millions of dumbfounded dipshits.

Some say the end is near.
Some say we'll see armageddon soon.
I certainly hope we will.
I sure could use a vacation from this

Stupid shit, silly shit, stupid shit.
One great big festering neon distraction,
I've a suggestion to keep you all occupied.
Learn to swim x3.
Mom's gonna fix it all soon.
Mom's comin' round to put it back the way it ought to be.

Learn to swim x8.
Fuck L Ron Hubbard and fuck all his clones.
Fuck all those gun-toting hip gangster wannabes.
Learn to swim x8.
Fuck retro anything, fuck your tattoos.
Fuck all you junkies and fuck your short memory.
Learn to swim x7.
Fuck smiley glad-hands with hidden agendas.
Fuck these dysfunctional, insecure actresses.
Learn to swim x8.

'cause I'm praying for rain
I'm praying for tidal waves
I wanna see the ground give way.
I wanna watch it all go down.
Mom, please, flush it all away.
I wanna see it go right in and down.
I wanna watch it go right in.
Watch you flush it all away.

Time to bring it down again.
Don't just call me pessimist.
Try and read between the lines.
I can't imagine why you wouldn't
Welcome any change, my friend.
I wanna see it all come down.
Put it down.
Suck it down.
Flush it down.

The Parlor Mob - Can't keep no good boy down

I been thinking for a while now, how you had me still.
Playing with my mind now, darling, hope you got your fill.
'Cause this train is leaving, it's rolling down the track,
singing: "Aint no turnin' back"

Now, I'm a simple man, it's true, I've given all I had to you.
Really don't leave much for me, sorry woman, had to let you be.
'Cause this train is leaving, it's rolling down the track.
singing: "Aint no turnin' back"
singing: "Aint no turnin' back"

One day you're going to realize, that I aint the one to blame.
I see how you critisize and curse my very name, but baby that's alright.

'Cause I got better things to do, than to be your whippin' boy,
So, you can say what you want 'bout me, hope it brings some type of joy
back in your life.

'Cause it don't matter what I do,
there just aint no pleasing you.

Just say it how you mean it.
Just tell us how you feel.
Whoa, just say it how you mean it,
Just tell us...

Hope one day you'll find a man that can keep you satisfied,
Have yourself a mess of kids and a real comfortable life
This train is leaving, it's rolling down the track,
singing: "Aint no turnin' back".

Still, I really wish you well, 'spite of all the lies you tell.
Can't keep no good boy down, woman, when you gonna look around?
'Cause this train is leaving, it's rolling down the track,
singing: "Aint no turnin' back"

Ye, this train is leaving, it's rolling down the track,
singing: "Aint no turnin' back"
singing: "Aint no turnin' back"
singing: "Aint no turnin' back"
singing: "Aint no turnin' back"

Tool - Vicarious

Eye on the TV,
'cause tragedy thrills me
Whatever flavor
it happens to be, like:
"Killed by the husband"
"Drowned by the ocean"
"Shot by his own son"
"She used a poison- in his tea,
Then (she) kissed him goodbye"
That's my kind of story
It's no fun till someone dies.

Don't look me at like
I am a monster
Frown out your one face, but with the other (you)
Stare like a junkie into the TV
Stare like a zombie while the mo-ther holds her child,
Watches him die,
Hands to the sky cryin "why, oh why?"

Cause I need to watch things die
from a distance
Vicariously, I live
while the whole world dies
You all needed it too - don't lie.

Why can't we just admit it?
Why can't we just admit it?
We won't give pause until the blood is flowin'
Neither the brave nor bold
Nor brightest of stories told
We won't give pause until the blood is flowin'

I need to watch things die from a good safe distance
Vicariously, I live while the whole world dies
You all feel the same so why can't we just admit it?

Blood like rain fallin' down
Drum on grave and ground

Part vampire, part warrior,
Carnivore and voyeur
Stare at the transmittal.
Sing to the death rattle.

La, la, la, la, la, la, la-lie (x4)

Credulous at best
Your desire to believe in
Angels in the hearts of men.
But pull your head on out (of) your hippie haze
And give a listen
Shouldn't have to say it all again

The universe is hostile
So impersonal
Devour to survive
So it is, so it's always been ...

We all feed on tragedy.
It's like blood to a vampire.

Vicariously, I live while the whole world dies
Much better you than I.

Tool - Jambi

Here from the king's mountain view
Here from the wild dream come true
Feast like a sultan I do
On treasures and flesh, never few.

But I, I would wish it all away.
If I thought I'd lose you just one day.

The devil and his had me down,
in love with the dark side, I'd found.
Dabble in all the way down,
up to my neck soon to drown.

But you changed that all for me.
Lifted me up, turned me round.
So I...
I...
I...
I...
I would
I would
I would
Wish this all away

Prayed like a martyr dusk to dawn.
Begged like a hooker all night long.
Tempted the devil with my song.
And got what I wanted all along.

But I,
And I would,
if I could,
And I would,

Wish it away,
Wish it away,
Wish it all away,
Wanna wish it all away,
No prize that could hold sway,
Or justify my giving away,
my center.

So if I could I'd wish it all away.
If I thought tomorrow would take you away.
You're my peace of mind, my home, my center.
I'm just trying to hold on,
One more day.

Jab my eyes...
Jab my eyes...

Jab my eyes if they should compromise
our fulcrum what you need divides me then
I might as well be gone.

Shine on forever, shine on, benevolent son.
Shine down upon the broken, shine until the two become one.
Shine on forever, shine on, benevolent son.
Shine on upon the severed, shine until the two become one.

Divided I'm withering away.
Divide and I'm withering away.

Shine on upon the many, light our way, benevolent son.

Breathe in union.
Breathe in union.
Breathe in union.
Breathe in union.
Breathe in union.
So as one survive.
Another day and season.

Silence leeches, save your poison.
Silence leeches, stay out of my way.

Tool - Wings for Marie (Part I)

You believed.
You believed in moments not conceived.
You believed in me.

A passionate spirit. Uncompromised
boundless and open.
A light in your eyes, then, immobilized.

Vacant, broken.
Fell at the hands of
Those movements that I wouldn't see.
Cause it was you who prayed for me so.
What have I done to be a son to an angel?
What have I done... to be worthy?

Day light dims leaving... cold fluorescence.
Difficult to see you in this light.
Please forgive this... selfish question, but
What am I to say to all these ghouls tonight?

She never told a lie, well might of told a lie, but never lived one.
Didn't have a life, didn't have a life, but surely saved one.
Saved on. Alright, now it's time for us to let you go.

Tool - 10.000 days (Wings part II)

Listen to the tales and romanticize,
how we follow the path of the... hero
Boast about the day, when the rivers overrun,
how we rise to the height of our... halo.
Listen to the tales as we all rationalize
our way into the arms of the... savior
Feigning all the trials and the tribulations,
none of us have actually... been there, not like you

Ignorant siblings in the congregation
Gather around spewing sympathy... spare me
None of them can even hold a candle up to you,
Blinded by choices hypocrites... won't see
But, enough about the collective Judas, who could deny,
you were the one who illuminated your little piece of the divine
This little light of mine, the gift you passed on to me,
I'm gonna let it shine, to guide you safely on your way
Your way home...


Ohh, what are they gonna do when the lights go down
without you to guide them all to Zion?
What are they gonna do when the rivers overrun
other than tremble incessantly?
High is the way, but all eyes are upon the ground.
You are the light and the way... they'll only read about
I only pray heaven knows when to lift you out
10.000 days in the fire is long enough. You're going home...

You're the only one who can hold your head up high,
Shake your fist at the gates saying:
"I have come home now!
Fetch me the spirit, the son and the father,
Tell them their pillar of faith has ascended.
It's time now! My time now!
Give me my... Give me my wings!"

Give me my (x5)
"Give me my wings!"

You are the light, the way, that they will only read about

Set as I am, in my.. ways and my arrogance
Burden of proof tossed upon the believers.
You were my witness, my... eyes, my evidence,
Judith Marie,
unconditional one.

Daylight dims leaving... cold fluorescents.
Difficult to see you in this light.
Please, forgive this... bold suggestion, (but)
Should you see your maker's face tonight:
Look him in the eye
Look him in the eye and tell him:
'I never lived a lie, never took a life, but surely saved one
Hallelujah, It's time for you to bring me home.'

Tool - The Pot

Who are you to wave your finger? You must have been out your head
Eye hole deep in muddy waters, you practically raised the dead
Rob the grave to snow the cradle then burn the evidence down
Soapbox house of cards and glass so don't go tossin' your stones around

You must have been high
You must have been high
You must have been

Foot in mouth and head up ass-hole, whatcha talkin' 'bout?
Difficult to dance 'round this one 'til you pull it out, boy

You must have been so high
You must have been so high

Steal, borrow, refer, save your shady inference
Kangaroo done hung the juror with the innocent

Now you're weeping shades of cozened indigo, got lemon juice up in your eye
When you pissed all over my black kettle

You must have been high, high
You must have been high, high

Who are you to wave your finger? So full of it
Eye balls deep in muddy waters, fuckin' hypocrite

Liar, lawyer; mirror show me, what's the difference?
Kangaroo done hung the guilty with the innocent

Now you're weeping shades of cozened indigo got lemon juice up in your high eye
When you pissed all over my black kettle
You must've been...

So who are you to wave your finger?
Who are you to wave your fatty fingers at me?
You must have been out your mind

Weepin' shades of indigo
Trapped without a reason
Weepin' shades of indigo

Liar, lawyer; mirror for ya', what's the difference?
Kangaroo be stoned. He's guilty as the government

Now you're weeping shades of cozened indigo
Got lemon juice up in your eye, eye
Now when you pissed all over my black kettle

You must've been high, high, high, high

Eyeballs deep in muddy waters
Your balls deep in muddy waters
Ganja, please
You must have been out your mind
