The Suicide Machines Destruction By Definition Lyrics
1.Break The Glass

Breaking.myself
There's something about myself i can't control
Yet it happens time and time again when i'm trying to be
Well i smash it down and break it down when i'm trying to be
Well it's such a shame it's sad to say there's nothing to see
there
I don't wanna talk about it &cause you know i can't live without
it
It's a stupid fucking shame
And every time i think about it
I think i'm so lame listen || buy

I break the glass, i break it down (repeat 4 times)

What's your story, what's your sign.
No i can't agree
Well you know you'll never get it in this life for free
You can blow it down and break the glass
Break my heart in two
But you'd better be prepared its such a shock
There's nothing there

Fill me up because i'm empty
Why couldn't i just have kept me
You know it really fucking sucks
When i try to talk about it the words seem to get stuck

I break the glass, i break it down (repeat 4 times)
Down!

I break the glass, i break it down (repeat 4 times)

Pick it up.


2.Face Values

You've got no friends and so you're lonely.
It does not have to be this way
Just be yourself, the one and only
It take some time but that's okay
Alright, no need to fight
'cause everybody's different
And there's nothin you can do about it
And just because i dont look like you
Or act like you
It doesn't make me any better or worse
You hate yourself cause you're not like them
Well understand that this is wrong
You're better off doing your own thing,
Being yourself and
Being strong


3.Hey Ska!

Hey! what's goin' on?
Hey! what went wrong?
Hey! i don't know why
Hey! i might as well try! buy

Well, i looked around this crazy place and tried to make some
sense of it
Robbed a bank and stole a car and tried to put some dents in it
And everybody is playing games
I don't know what to make of it
Don't play your stupid games you know i don't need all that
fucked up shit

No one ever told me i was gonna get older
Turned 21 and i thought my life was over
Took a long time to get where i am now
And i'm not gonna sit around wondering how, no!

Well i listen to your fuckin' shit i can't make any sense of it
&cause what goes in does not come out, you've gotta put two
cents in it
You're just a blob of fuckin' jell you're brain is floating in
space
And if your brain was worth a quarter i'd get twenty-six cents
back in change!

No one told me that the grass would be greener
I've done a lot of things since the last time that i seen her
No one ever told me it would be this way
That's why you can't make any sense out of anything i say!

My world is crumbling and i don't know what to do
It's falling down around me &cause i'm thinking of you
If we take a look at our world today
Are our morals on decline or have we all gone insane?

Hey! what's goin' on?
Hey! what went wrong?
Hey! i don't know why
Hey! i might as well try!


4.Insecurties

Held back by walls of security, that
I just could never see, held people at arms length
Devoid of human contact
Cannot express emotion
I try with all my strength
What is the matter with me?
It seems that no one even cares
I'm blinded by my innocence
Will no one be there for me?
When i dont understand.
Covered in blankets of imagination
Where i can talk to people without a
Second thought
What if they're laughing at me
I know i'm not good enough
So i won't even try.....
God only knows what'll keep us from dying
Because eveytime i look around i see life as a big lie
Yeah everybody's saying 'yeah i'm the one' yeah
'everybody came running to me'
But thats not how it works and it never did
You know i'm sorry it had to be this way
Things got fucked up but thats okay....
...i'm sorry....
...i'm sorry....


5.Inside/outside

If you're fucked up on the inside, then you're fucked up on the
outside
Doens't matter what you say or do
Doesn't matter what you think is true
Don't look for peace on the outside man
Just look for peace on the inside
Doesn't matter what the others say cause all those mouths get in
the way

You're just too hip, you're just too cool
But everybody knows that you're just a fucking fool
And you'll carry that 'cool' until the day you die
'cause you're still full of shit and you're turning 25

If you wanna know the answers, then you've gotta ask the
questions
'who am i?' and 'who is she?'
And 'does it matter anyway?'
You've got to look for love on the inside man
Don't look for love on the outside
Doesn't matter what the others say, cause all that shit gets in
the way

You can't love me, and you can't love you
Where'd it all go wrong? cause i wish i really knew
That color's all the same through color blind eyes,
And if you think you're so different then you're wasting your
time


6.Islands

You tell me that you've found a better way
And i tell you that it isn't fucking sane
Everything that i wanted has broke down
They all think that i'm just a fucking clown
Everybody's telling me i gotta move faster
Everybody's telling me that i'm a fucking bastard!
All my dreams were just islands in the sky (repeat 4x) listen ||
buy

I tell you that the world's a scary place
You tell me we're caught up in the same race
Everybody's worried that they'll never get their share
I get left behind &cause i wasn't ever there
But everybody's telling me i gotta move faster
Everybody's telling me that i'm a fucking bastard!
All my dreams were just islands in the sky (repeat 4x)

They all think i'm mad
Everything i had just broke down
They all think i'm mad
Everything i had just broke down
But everybody's telling me i gotta move faster
Everybody's telling me that i'm a fucking bastard!
All my dreams were just islands in the sky (repeat 4x)


7.New Girl

Well i can't wait to tell you all about her, all about my new
girl
(he can't wait to tell you about his new girl)
And i can't wait for you to hear me shout it, all about my new
girl
(he can't wait to tell you about his new girl)
When we were together you tried to break my heart
Said you always did your best at keeping us apart
Said now you're dead and gone and i've got a new thing going
I can't wait to see your face when you and your friends show up
listen || buy

So i've got a - i got a new girl (repeat 4 times)

Something makes you think that you're some kinda winner
Said you wanna get married and cook somebody dinner?
Said you're making fun of me &cause i'm young and got no money
I've got no time for school books &cause i got no time to study.

Well i can't wait to tell you all about her, all about my new
girl
(he can't wait to tell you about his new girl)
And i can't wait for you to hear me shout it, all about my new
girl
(he can't wait to tell you about his new girl)

So i've got a - i got a new girl (repeat 4 times)

Hey!

You're the type of girl that any guy would die for
That's the way it looks and i'm really glad you think so
So concerned with friends and your popularity
That you never even took the time to see the real me

Well i can't wait to tell you all about her, all about my new
girl
(he can't wait to tell you about his new girl)
And i can't wait for you to hear me shout it, all about my new
girl
(he can't wait to tell you about his new girl)

So i've got a - i got a new girl (repeat 4 times)

He can't wait to tell you about (repeat 4 times)
This one -
New girl


8.No Face

I know, they know
Don't drink, drive slow
Insane, no brain
Dress down, look plain
Big fun, no gun
No girl, gotta run
Flipside, can't hide
Can't think suicide
Is there anybody out there?
Does anybody know?
Is there anybody out there?
Does anybody know? listen || buy

Been there, no where
Done that, get square
I'm hip, no lip
Dig this, my tip
Punk's dead, see red
Life sucks, deadhead
No race, no face
Still there, same place!
Is there anybody out there?
Does anybody know?
Is there anybody out there?
Does anybody know?

I don't know where i went wrong
And i don't know if i can wait that long
But every time i hear that another kid died
Through a senseless act of violence
It makes me wanna cry
Is there anybody out there?
Does anybody know?
Is there anybody out there?
Does anybody know?


9.Our Time

I got no time!
I got no time!
How can it end when it never began?
Why can't i win when i know i can?
Seems that we've forgotten about the mess we're in
Which way do we go, and was there ever a plan?
Seems i'm getting old ya see and i can't avoid responsibility
Stuck in a box of popular belief and it feels like somethings
wrong with me! listen || buy

Got no! got no time for myself (repeat 4x)
Do we have a function?
Tell me is there something
Is this my assumption?
Tell me is there something
Life is nothing but consumption
Tell me is there something there! oh yeah!
I got no time!
How can we help when we don't know where to begin?
Fighting the system, yet you got sucked in
You dropped out of the race, &cause you never fit in
It's a racist power structure, do we call it human?
Seems i'm getting old ya see and i can't avoid responsibility
Stuck in a box of popular belief and it feels like somethings
wrong with me!
I've seen through all the years and through all the tears
I've seen my share, it makes me feel like
No one even cares.
I've seen through all the years and through all the tears
I've seen my share, it makes me feel like
No one even cares.
Do we have a function?
Tell me is there something
Is this my assumption?
Tell me is there something
Life is nothing but consumption
Tell me is there something there! there? there!
Seems that no one even cares!


10.Punk Out

You're the only one in the world that you care about
Makes me wanna run and hide my head
It's hard for me to tell you how i feel
&cause there's nothing real
Makes me wanna run and hide my head
God only knows what'll keep me alive
Because everybody's turning 25 listen || buy

And i haven't got a word to say to you
Honor role when i was 13, head over heels when someone kissed me
When i needed someone you weren't there

I'm sorry (repeat 14x)

Hey, hey, hey (repeat 6x)

You know that you scare me when you act this way
Makes me wanna run and hide my head
It's hard for me to tell if you're serious or if you're joking
Makes me wanna run and hide my head
And god only knows what'll keep us from dying
Because every time i look around i see life as a big lie
Yeah, everybody's saying yeah, i'm the one§, yeah
everybody come running to me§
But that's not how it works and it never did

I'm sorry (repeat 14x)

You know that i'm sorry it had to be this way
Things got fucked up, but that's okay
I'm sorryi'm sorry
You know that i'm sorry it had to be this way
Things got fucked up, but that's okay
I'm sorryi'm sorry

Hey, hey, hey (repeat 6x)


11.Sos

I take a look around, i don't like what i see
A bunch of people who don't know shit about unity
I see right through your skin, you say you see through mine
Then please explain to me why we fight all the time
I can't take it anymore, this is bothering me
Got people killing each other
Why does this have to be?
I wish i knew, i really wish i knew
How people can see there's no real difference between me and you
listen || buy

It's a bomb with a short fuse
And i know it seems like no use
The tension's building a reaction
This is a call to action

S.o.s. we need help (repeat 4 times)

Man's inhumanity towards another man
It's man's insanity and ignorance again
And now the time had come to stop what's going on
The hatred's building up, exploding like a bomb

It's a bomb with a short fuse
And i know it seems like no use
The tension's building a reaction
This is a call to action

S.o.s. we need help (repeat 4 times)

The bomb is gotta stopthe bomb is gonna pop! (repeat 4 times)

It's a bomb, it's a bomb!

It's a bomb with a short fuse
And i know it seems like no use
The tension's building a reaction
This is a call to action

S.o.s. we need help (repeat 4 times)

Drop, drop, drop, drop, drop, drop, drop, drop!


12.So Long

You never considered how i feel
Show me something thats real
You never show me whats inside
The truth can never hide
How could such a simple argument turn into this
I thought that i knew everything about you
I pushed that flashing red button that set you off
I guess i didnt really know you as well as i thought i did
I guess that i figured out everything about you
I guess i know all there is to know
I guess that i figured out what makes you do all the things you
do
I guess i know everything there is to know
You know you make me want to say so long
You know you make me wanna say goodbye....(goodbye)
How could you do all the things that you've done to me
And still have the nerve to say we're still friends i don't know
They tell me that it's all a part of growing up and being scared
When i was down and out where were you
You weren't there!


13.The Real You

The word real§ is defined as what really lies inside
You're not the person i once knew,
You're not the you that i'm used to
All this wool is buggin' my eyes and i never realized
Behind that plastic shell, you cannot even tell
I can't come in &cause you won't let me break through the mask
of who you are listen || buy

You let down your shield, it's your best defense,
It won't devastate you, it's really hard
For me to tell you everything that i want to tell to you
But you never knew the real me
And i'm sure i never knew the real you

I wanna see the real you! (repeat 6x)

Conflicting spheres of interest pose a threat to who we are
And where we want to be, we just can't see
We throw the walls up around ourselves
Our visions are dulled and doubtful
It's our double standards
That'll wrap us up inside ourselves and never let us out

I wanna see the real you! (repeat 6x)

Motherfucker!
Fucking bitch!
Hypocrite!
Ahhh!
The real you!
I wanna see the real you! (repeat 6x)


14.The Vans Song

Well, you're just like a club fag wearing doc martens
Get a pair of chukas or some checkerboard slip-ons
Worship jeff spicoli not chris cornell
Get a pair of vans or god will send you to hell
To hell
You think doc martens are the coolest invention listen || buy

Since someone sliced a loaf of bread in someone else's kitchen
The plain truth is that you just plain suck
So why should i tell you not to waste a hundred bucks
Vans in my head
Vans on my feet
My sole is on the ground when i'm walking down the street 2, 3,
4
Don't wear no doc martens
Can't wear no birkenstocks
Just a crummy old pair of chuka boots and a smelly old pair of
socks
If you want to wear them you don't have to ride a skateboard
You can even wear them with a pair of old cords
Someone'll probably tell you that they're not in trend
Just tell them that's the reason why you don't have any friends
No friends
I don't wanna hear about alternative footwear
And i don't wanna hear about your new hair-do
I don't give a shit about you stupid motherfuckers
&cause i just wanna get a pair of olive green chukas!
Vans in my head
Vans on my feet
My sole is on the ground when i'm walking down the street 2, 3,
4
Don't wear no doc martens
Can't wear no birkenstocks
Just a crummy old pair of chuka boots and a smelly old pair of
socks
Vans in my head
Vans on my feet
My sole is on the ground when i'm walking down the street 2, 3,
4
Don't wear no doc martens
Can't wear no birkenstocks
Just a crummy old pair of chuka boots and a smelly old pair of
socks


15.Too Much

When the extra weight hits my brain i feel like i'm going insane
That's when the hand of god cuts my cord,
That's when i feel like jah the lord
My heart is pumping blood into my head,
And i feel just like a thousand pounds of lead
And the right half of my body has gone numb listen || buy

I think it's too much, a little too much
I think it's too much for me!
When the monster inside my head is telling me i'm better off
dead
That's when my mind's turned upside down
That's when you wish you weren't around
My head is telling me that it's not right,
Your face is such an unfamiliar sight
And when i'm flying high as a fucking kite,
I think it's too much, a little too much
I think it's too much for me!
Take another drag to kill the pain of
Your meaningless existence in this godforsaken place,
Where everyone's a sellout but they're also a fucking burnout,
They thought it would be the best way to enhance your state of
mind
See, i went home and i turned on the t.v. &cause i had the time
I look at all this bullshit, all this muggin' and crime
War, death, disease, famine what's it all worth!
I started to lose it by the time i started losin' my mind
So i got to the jah, and i got to the j.
I get to the spliff, and i got in his way
The same frame of mind! (repeat 3x)
Pick it up.
When the extra weight hits my brain i feel like i'm going insane
That's when the hand of god cuts my cord,
That's when i feel like jah the lord
My heart is pumping blood into my head,
And i feel just like a thousand pounds of lead
And the right half of my body has gone numb
I think it's too much, a little too much
I think it's too much for me!


16.Zero

I'm not the same as i was when i was young
And neither are you
There's been a lot of changes in the both of us,
You said you see that 2
I've wasted such a lot of time to find i was
Looking at the wrong things
If its an apology you're waiting for , you could
Wait a long time
I've wasted such a long time
Just to feel like a zero
Life really sucks ya know when ya
Yeah feel like a zero
I've wasted such a long time too
Just to feel like a zero
You're not the only one who's held me in
You said i broke your heart
It would've been the the other way around when i was young
But sooner or later we've all got to
Grow up
I dont know if i should tell you how i'm feeling
Chances are you're laughing at me
And tell me that i dont know
What i'm saying
.....it's not my fault
