Sum 41
INTRODUCTION TO DESTRUCTION
children of the beast embrace
to scorn and hate the human race
consume the light that hugs the earth
and aid the womb in giving birth
to a group that will appear
and guide you through this final year
the dark armies then will come
when the sum is 41



ALL SHE'S GOT
this place reminds me of,
a time that's way too old
these thoughts have gathered up the memories unfold
but for now i don't see what's so wrong with pretending
it's true i thought you knew

believe her it's all she's got to pass the time
believe her it's over now she's passed her prime
believe her it's all shes got to keep things right
believe her it's all she's got it's all she's got

these days keep getting worse i'm wasting all my time
i thought i'd come in first instead i feel behind
i dont know i dont know if i can keep this up to long
it seems most every time my motives are all wrong
but for now i dont see whats so wrong with pretending
its true i thought you knew

believe her it's all she's got to pass the time
believe her it's over now she's passed her prime
believe her it's all shes got to keep things right
believe her it's all she's got it's all she's got

its times like this but times run out
its times like this but times run out
its times like this but times run out
its times like this i want to

believe her it's all she's got to pass the time
believe her it's over now she's passed her prime
believe her it's all shes got to keep things right
believe her it's all she's got it's all she's got



CRAZY AMANDA
dont know what you really got
its hard to stay and not pretend
cant make sense in whatyou thought
seems i cant comprehend

i'm happy to be
only all that you see
and i'm not one to learn to be the same
i dont wanna hear you bitch no more
i was better off a year before
no matter how i try i cant ignore
every time i think my brain is sore
when i'm with you...

whats so hard about goodbyes
i'm sorry i'm just not as keen
i'm planning out a perfect life
when i'm ony nineteen

i'm happy to be
only all that you see
smf o'm not one to learn to be the same
i dont want to try and just be friends
nothings gonna change my mind again
and never hear the thoughts i had were dead
i cant even think inside my head
when i'm with you...

i'm in my way
cant you see thats the truth
so long cant stay
wont you see thats the truth
i'm in my way
cant you see thats the truth
so long cant stay
wont you see thats the see thats the see thats the

last thing i could take
because it's getting really hard to fake
its not like its my problem that you're in
but cant you just spare the lives i hate
when i'm with you...



FAT LIP
storming thoguht the party like my name is el ninio
when i'm haning out drinking in the back of an el camino
as a kid was a skid no one knew me by name
trashed my own house party cause nobody came

i know i'm not the one you thought you knew back in highschool
never going ever showing up when we had to
is it attention that we crave dont tell us to behave
i'm sick of always hearing act your age

i dont want to waste my time
and become a casualty of society
i'll never fall in line
become a victim of your conformity
and back down

because you dont
know us at all we laugh when old people fall
but what would you expect with a conscience so small
heavy metal and myllets its how we were raised
maiden and priest were the gods that we praised

cause we like having fun at other peoples expense and
cutting people down is just a minor offence then
its none of your concern i guess i'll never learn
i'm sick of being told wait my turn

i dont want to waste my time
and become a casualty of society
i'll never fall in line
become a victim of your conformity
and back down

dont count on me to let you know when
dont count on me i'll do it again
dont count on me its the point you're missing
dont count on me cause i'm not listening

well i'm a no goodnick lower middle class brat
back packed and i dont give a shit about nothing
you be standing on the corner talking all that kufuffin
but you dont make sense from all the gas you be huffing
then if the egg dont stain you'll be ringing off the hook
you're on the hit list wanted in the telephone book
i like songs with distortion to drink in propotion
the doctor said my mom should have had an abortion

i dont want to waste my time
and become a casualty of society
i'll never fall in line
become a victim of your conformity
and back down
waste my time with them
casualty of society
waste my time again
victim of your conformity
and back down



HANDLE THIS
you said it once before you dont do those things you used to anymore
you say in doubt were fading out forgetting who we used to be

cause i will bring you down
i dont want to miss i dont think you can handle this
you've lost what you cant find its never what you had in mind

you take it with a smile its so easy when you're always in denial
just in time but out of line i cant make all the smae mistakes you want me to

cause i will bring you down
i dont want to miss i dont think you can handle this
you've lost what you cant find its never what you had in mind

your gicing up you know its not what you need
and its true what you're going through
try so hard not listen to everything i say

cause i will bring you down
i dont want to miss i dont think you can handle this
you've lost what you cant find its never what you had in mind

i'm getting over getting used to
and after all that i put you though now i see
i'm not the only one

i never thought it'd ever come to
this in fact was never what you wanted from me
or how you meant it to be



IN TOO DEEP
the faster we're falling
we're stopping and stalling
we're running in circles again
just as things were looking up
you said it wasnt good enough
but still we're trying one more time

maybe we're just trying to hard
when really its closer that it is too far

cause i'm in too deep and i'm trying to keep
up above in my head instead over going under
cause i'm in too deep and i'm trying to keep
up above in my head instead of going under
instead of going under

seems like each time
i'm with you i loose my mind
because i'm bending over backwards to relate
its one thing to complain
but when you're driving me insane
well then i think its time that we took a break

maybe we're just trying to hard
when really its closer than it is too far

cause i'm in too deep and i'm trying to keep
up above in my head instead over going under
cause i'm in too deep and i'm trying to keep
up above in my head instead of going under
instead of going under
instead of going under

i cant sit back and wonder why
it took so long for this to die
and i hate it when you fake it
you cant hide it you might as well embrace it
so believe me its not easy
it seems that somethings telling me

cause i'm in too deep and i'm trying to keep
up above in my head instead over going under
cause i'm in too deep and i'm trying to keep
up above in my head instead of going under
instead of going under
instead of going under

instead of going under again
instead of going under
instead of going under agian
instead of going under again



MOTIVATION
whats the difference of never knowing at all
when every step i take is always too small
maybe its just something i cant admit but lately
i feel like i dont give a shit

motivation such an aggravation
accusations dont know how to make them
inspirations getting hard to fake it
concentrations never hard to break it
situation never what you want it to be

whats the point of never making mistakes
self-indulgence is such a hard habit to break
its all just a waste of time in the end
i dont care so why should i even pretend

motivation such an aggravation
accusations dont know how to make them
inspirations getting hard to fake it
concentrations never hard to break it
situation never what you want it to be

nothing's new everythings the same
it keeps on dragging me down its getting kind of lame
i'm falling further behind theres nothing to explain
no matter what you say nothings gonna change my mind

cant pretend on doubt until the end
it seems like leaving friends has become
this years trend and thought i cant pretend
its not the same but whos to blame
for all those stupid things i never said

motivation such an aggravation
accusations dont know how to make them
inspirations getting hard to fake it
concentrations never hard to break it
situation never what you want it to be

motivation such an aggravation
accusations dont know how to make them
inspirations getting hard to fake it
concentrations never hard to break it
situation never what you want it to be

never what you want it to be
never what you want it to be



NEVER WAKE UP
jump all you can
and you got out your right foot
the sooner you get out
in your hide away
i might be left dead
side of the road
serves a place and time

i plan on never waking up
i plan on never waking up

jump all you can
and you got out your right foot
the sooner you get out
in your hide away
i might be left dead
side of the road
serves a place and time

i plan on never waking up
i plan on never waking up
i plan on never waking up
i plan on never waking up



NOTHING ON MY BACK
was happiness a fad
or was it the lost in found again behind the issues
it might not be so bad
we're all addicted to our tragedy
i guess its what it had to be

with nothing on my back
its still enough to bring me down
my minds about to crack
cause what i thought could not be found
matter of in fact
its harder still when you're around
with nothing on my back
i cant help but drown

i might as well belong to both of you
and the mess you always seem to drag me though
that night forever always haunting me
but i guess it is what its supposed to be
but spare your thoughts of sympathy

with nothing on my back
its still enough to bring me down
my minds about to crack
cause what i thought could not be found
matter of in fact
its harder still when you're around
with nothing on my back
i cant help but drown

with nothing on my back
its still enough to bring me down
my minds about to crack
cause what i thought could not be found
with nothing on my back
its still enough to bring me down
my minds about to crack
cause what i thought could not be found
with nothing on my back
its still enough to bring me down
my minds about to crack
cause what i thought could not be found
with nothing on my back
its still enough to bring me down
my minds about to crack
cause what i thought could not be found

with nothing on my back
its still enough to bring me down
my minds about to crack
cause what i thought could not be found
matter of in fact
its harder still when you're around
with nothing on my back
i cant help but drown


PAIN FOR PLEASURE
the seas have parted
the ending started
the sky has turned to black
a killing spree through eternity
the devil stabs you in the back
its midnight now you must escape somehow
torture is his leisure
dont try to hid he'll make you subside
as he exchanges pain for pleasure

pain for pleasure hes the hunter you're the game
pain for pleasure satan is his name



RHYTHMS
mad in a way but i dont say
its what you're used to
i got the words but cant convey
i know you'll turn it all around
cause thats the rhythms that you go through
get it back and you're not obliged to say
not intact but you're better off anyway
somehow its never up to me
what if i would say
simple words i cant relate
i dont place upon your view
it the rhythms that you go through

i know what i want
you just take me through the motions
i know what i want
and thats more than you can say

since you found me out
since you found me out
since you found me out
since you found me out

your story still remains
its so unline still you stay the same
and all the while you're counting on your day to come
but nothing ever told you
you would say that its only for a day
yesterdays last week tormorrows on its way
and i'm falling faster all the time

what if i wouls say
simple words i cant relate
what came easy is now too late
and it was always standing right in front of me

i know what i want
you just take me through the motions
i know what i want
and thats more than you can say

all the time you thought worth saving
you still end up with memories fading
after all that you wouldnt do
it makes no sense but its that rhythms that you go through

i know what i want
you just take me through the motions
i know what i want
and thats more than you can say
i know what i want
you just take me through the motions
i know what i want
and thats more than you can say

since you found me out
since you found me out
since you found me out
since you found me out



SUMMER
its far beyond your reach it holds a place in time
somewhere ahead is the back of the line
i cant relate to your mistakes awkwardly
speaking with nothing to say

caught up in your life excuses are so lame
you may be different but i'm still the same
the reasons that you thought the intention that you caught
you say things are simple we both know they're not
you cant let it go

whao

you cant but i know

whoa whoa you dont even know

caught up in your life excuses are so lame
you may be different but i'm still the same
the reasons that you thought the intention that you caught
you say things are simple we both know they're not
you cant let it go

its not in what you do more in what you say

a million questions asked the remnants of the past
you've always been denied but always by your side
i've always tried to to understand you
the words not learning from you

whoa whoa

caught up in your life excuses are so lame
you may be different but i'm still the same
the reasons that you thought the intention that you caught
you say things are simple we both know they're not
you cant let it go



HEART ATTACK
remember when there was nothing else to do
but lie in bed and wonder how it was always up to you and no one else and
early mornings made by warnings whats the point of the alarm that i'm ignoring
its either raining i'm not complaining but waking up is so hard to do

turn my head its back to bed with no delay cant be bothered by the phone ten times a day
why get up my morning doesnt even start till two
forget reality waking up is so hard to do

remember when we would hang out every day and we would rather
not be told what to do or what to say cause nothing mattered
never boring with slept in mornings not ashamed of bad habist that i'm forming
its not important if days are shortened i cant make time when nothings new
cause waking up is so hard to do

caught up in your life excuses are so lame
you may be different but i'm still the same
the reasons that you thought the intention that you caught
you say things are simple we both know they're not
you cant let it go

whats a day when it all ends up the same and lasts forever
cant complain when theres nothing there to blame and things cant be better
summer evenings teenage grieveings got no problem with the life that i've been leading
no concentration no hesitation i cant make time when nothings new
cause waking up is so hard to do so

caught up in your life excuses are so lame
you may be different but i'm still the same
the reasons that you thought the intention that you caught
you say things are simple we both know they're not
you cant let it go
