CHORUS Hanging on to everything you said, and everything you did was so wonderful, so unbelievable. What is this world without you. We're hanging onto what you said even if it hurts. He jumped into life and never touched the ground, raised in California, insane but sure to rise to epic fame. A man who followed nothing but his own ideas, constantly changing minds conquering fears. A heart of gold terrifying everyone in sight, only those who got real close could truly see his light. Breath by breath longing for the life, Breath by breath the master of the knife. A new breath of life is upon us now, inspiring the choices that we make. CHORUS Jimmy was out of his mind in the most wonderful way, I would hang on to everything he would do or say. Jimmy was a shooting star he burnt perhaps to brightly. Jimmy was best friend to all, no one would take him lightly. Inspired through your music if only I could still meet you. I would give so very much just to hug you but I have to go the rest of my existence without you. If I could live with half the enthusiasm coursing through my veins, sometimes it's still unbearable, I still feel the pain. So this is how I choose to remember your life, your thoughts music and theories forever a night. You left your mark on the world, no one could ever forget, so instead... Goodbye Hanging on to what you said and what you did was unforgettable In the hearts of many, blessed are those who knew you. CHORUS

The city of sin will corrupt your kin its a line so thin drawn under your skin On naivety they feed and on ignorance they breed so keep your wits about you and come with me Hey! Such a crap deal you better not take it They kinder your mind, but you know they fake it Their trickery has gone beyond return and now it's your turn, your turn to learn Place your bet you get what you get the stage is set you get what you get you're feeling regret you get what you get too late to reset If you keep you're head still, you're an easy kill A dirty little riffay for a cheap ass thrill if you get your act together, you can rip forever feel light as a feather floating through the the never The anger will keep it around it will fade; the lesson is sound You can choose to grow make a stand against the show You could stick with old ways and die or could take baby steps and try then you'll take yourself to the sky and you'll be sorted for the rest of your life You get everything that you have worked for get what? I don't understand the question what you I don't have a clue what you mean you get oh you mean you get what you get You get what you get you get, what you get you get what you, you get what you get you get, get what you get you get what, you get you get what you, get what you get you get you, you get what you get you, get what you get! You get...

Hope 06:26
CHORUS Hold on soul your life awaits somewhere beyond this, do not fear the mirror of past mistakes, hold on to what is real, the end is so near. They will see, hope cannot be taken away from me. Do not mistake our hope for submission to the human race. VERSE 1 Butcher of Uganda, extreme paranoia, public safety unit, killer squads to prove it. Abduction, torture, murder, military coup berserker. The last king of Scotland falls. PRE-CHORUS Past evaporates in our hands, we don't look back at time and sands, in the distance and oasis gleams, sunlight covering screams. CHORUS VERSE 2 Rapist of Nanking, remorseness slaughtering, assault, torture, rape, murder bloody rape, Yanzee running red, flowing with the dead, gunshots ring in the rainflower terrace. VERSE 3 Slachter von judäa, extreme paranoia, storm detachment unit, the final solution, abduction, torture, murder, indoctrinated nation, wahnsinniger Diktator fällt. PRE-CHORUS CHORUS VERSE 4 Prevailing politicians, secret nuclear missions, selling off every bit, budget cuts to prove it. Abduction, war and terror, take our human rights, you'll fall! Hold on soul, your life awaits somewhere beyond this disappointment. Hold on soul your life awaits beyond this disappointing rule.
