I've got a name, but I'm known by a number All of my life I'm controlled by computers Bottom half, but I think it's an error We're just a number, our lives don't fucking matter A person just died - their name's in the paper Some people just died - they became just a number Am I the only one who knows something's wrong? I know it's wrong, but we're all just... She's got a name, but she's known by a number Doctors won't see her 'till she shows those digits Fifteen percent - she will not accept it Doctors give up just because of statistics All of my life, how I've longed to be different We never will. We're just part of statistics Names - they mean nothing Lives - they mean nothing God - He means nothing, when you're known by a number

Organization to justify the love between us Who are you? Stop judging me But it’s not working, look at this war around us What’s going on? Strike a match in the dark to help you see right You've yet to make yourself a path Burning out, I’m not lit, I’m running away You claim to know of this love, why can’t you show it off? I don’t stand beside you, so high, yet there’s compassion in my life Organization to justify love Your organization is fucking it all up Your mind is running out of ideas to tell them So listen up let me speak I’m from the other side and I don’t wanna fake it I’m not a liar Ignoring those who try to fix the faulty Why make exceptions to the rule? If that’s the case then, hey, I guess I’m guilty... Organization, justification, let’s get it right, you’re not all alone in this Organization, justification, you’re the people who lead the way for sin

When the world is looking down on me I want them to see just what they thought I could never be And they'll all rot into the ground, yeah Along with their need to make me What they want. They'll never make me What they want. I'm never gonna fucking be What they want. Cause what they want is someone to be above, yeah What they want. They'll never make me What they want. I'm never gonna fucking be What they want. Cause what they don't know is I'm already at the top, yeah Blank faces passed around the room Gazes fixed on me I can feel their thoughts burn through my flesh And I let skin char to the bone, yeah They'll never have enough to take me on What they want. They'll never make me What they want. I'm never gonna fucking be What they want. Cause what they want is someone to be above, yeah What they want. They'll never make me What they want. I'm never gonna fucking be What they want. Cause what they don't know is I'm already at the top, yeah So take your fucking chances Look up all the answers Tunnel visioned for a grade And all you kids take warning Or just keep on running If you (If you) want to be like them Yeah! What they want. They'll never make me What they want. I'm never gonna fucking be What they want. Cause what they want is someone to be above, yeah What they want. They'll never make me What they want. I'm never gonna fucking be What they want. Cause what they don't know is I'm already at the top, yeah

Say what you have to say But make it quick, cause I don't have all day You're too late, too late, too whoa, hey It's four a.m. and I'm still wide awake No rest for the weary only rest for the dead Can't take, can't take, can't take it, hey Faster and with less feeling No, I don't wanna feel a thing Shattered existence, scattered love (Hey hey) Can't come home to what you're not part of (Hey hey) Waste all your time crammed in a box (Hey hey) All the money you make couldn't pick the lock (Hey hey) Faster and with less feeling No, I don't wanna feel a thing I've broken down, I'm breaking out Taking what's left of my life back now This is my skin I'm living in And what lies beneath, you can't contain Faster and with less feeling No, I don't wanna feel a thing

"When we die, do we die alone?" And the word caught in my throat when I said, "No" Cause I knew that I was lying just to ease the pain of passing But she's the one who left me all alone Yeah, she's the one who left me all alone And she sang, "Whoa! I've gotta go. I've been hanging 'round too long And you gotta let me go." "Just let me go" And I know she saw disappointment in my eyes, But she closed her own and said her last goodbyes I guess she got me all along And I sang, "Whoa! I've got to go. I've been choking on these words from long ago." Burning fire set me free. You know I'm burning out for this. And we sang, "Whoa! I've got to go. We've been waiting for too long, and we let each other go" "Just let me go" We've been waiting for too long and we let each other go Yeah, we waited for too long we let each other go Yeah, I waited for too long and now you're gone.

There’s not a lot to say You’re not going our way Break the bond and I explode There’s nothing left to find Like a mime to the blind, Your tongue I’ve never understood Whoa that’s great that you’re not leaving Whoa but I’m through believing Whoa pack up your shit, walk out the door Whoa we will not wait for you anymore I know you waited so Long for this day to show But we’ve heard that story before We can’t get on the same Page with you, what a shame Your apathy cloaked in guilt trips Washes up dead on the shore The sky’s not falling So let’s stop digging our graves Let’s sail with heads held high In winds of desperate needed change

Lightweight 03:57
Baby, you're a lightweight It won't take much before you're gone Say goodbye to heartbreak Right now, nothing could go wrong And when you wake up You'll wish you'd stayed home last night So when your mom gets home You don't have to lie I saw a dead stare in your eye Shot in hand, and a beer can littered life now A dull laugh etched upon your face Seems you've left without a single trace now You thought you had it figured it You had no idea what we're about Can you even recall what I'm saying? Baby, you're a lightweight It won't take much before you're gone Say goodbye to heartbreak Right now, nothing could go wrong And when you wake up You'll wish you'd stayed home last night So when I come by You don't have to lie You spilled your guts, I couldn't care You thought that I would always be there waiting It's such a shame to call you friend I always thought that this would have a bitter end You were nowhere to be found No one picked you up when you fell down Can you even recall what I'm saying? Baby, you're a lightweight It won't take much before you're gone Say goodbye to heartbreak Right now, nothing could go wrong And when you fuck up You'll wish you'd stayed home last night So when I come by You don't have to lie Baby, you're a dead weight And God, you only bringing me down Say hello to goodbyes Cause this time we're not fucking around And when you wake up You'll wish you'd stayed home last night The medics came and swear you fucking died Baby, you're a lightweight It won't take much before you're gone Say goodbye to heartbreak Right now, nothing could go wrong And when you wake up You'll wish you'd stayed home last night So won't you please come home? Please come home tonight Baby, you're a lightweight And you've been gone for far too long And you never came home So I guess I'll say, "So long"
