Forced Excel
• Verse 1
Tell me God why have you just left me to die and rot outside your kingdom in the sky filled with souls of so many others like me
Please tell me God why am I dying here like some unfaithful cur, oh God why wont your answer me tonight I lie here this is the end

• Verse 2
Come on God, I need an answer
Come on God, I know you hear me
Come on God, there is another
Come on God, I need to know

Come on God I need an answer
Come on God I have to know
Push my faith into the ground now
Turn me out, turn me around

• Chorus
Force me to excel in your eyes
Force me to excel

• Verse 3
Here I lie, I’m broken and bleeding
Dear God, wont you help me now
Come on God, there is another
He tells me, that you lie
Here I die, I’m broken and bleeding
Dear God, wont you help me now
Come on God, I know you hear me
How can faith tell you lies?


The Hideous
• Verse 1
Beat me down you can’t kill me
As long as you keep up your practice of atrocity

• Verse 2
I am the martyr
I am the dark god
I am the hater
I am the goth/mod

Kill me to silence me
It’ll never work
Take a look at yourself
Reading from the book

• Verse 3
I have the shotgun
I will go make fun
I can’t do it now
I look for your pain

• Chorus
You will see my everything and you will see I’m dressed to kill
Close your eyes and just relax it’ll be all right again
Great men die in agony so why can’t we be side by side
Take me to the next dimension where we all live in fear and pain

• Verse 4
You will see my love
It is all for you
You can take this drug
It is your despair

(v23)
Come with me
We’ll all bow down
To get ready for the
Totalitarians

All that you see
