Gretchen 02:27
Gretchen got a gun for Christmas Actually, it's not really like that but the result is the same. She went to a party and met a guy there, they fell in love instantly In a whirlwind of flowers & hearts & all you only see at the movies Gretchen got a butcher's knife for her birthday But, no, it's not really like that... She pulled out of all her projects to move in a flat with her new boyfriend They got carried away & bought a car & a dog & a brand new tv set Gretchen's got a gun, Gretchen's got a knife Gretchen's got razors, but it's not like that... Gretchen got a razorblade for Valentine's day Except it's not really like that... She fell down the stairs one day And all her friends & family were standing by her bed Her boyfriend the closest, hiding the little bloodspots on his hands Do you get it now ? Do you get it ?

People are walking by my side. I’m just here standing, not moving. Rolling eyes, clenching hands. Watch their minds, feel their minds, catch their weakness, focus on your hatred to blow them up. Make their heads explode. This selfish crowd, this blind army, how can’t they feel your pain, why don’t they care ? Let them endure your sorrow, I want them so hard to suffer. Words won’t come, my voice stays silent, I’m stuck in a speechless jail. I need to shout out this rage inside me and the only way is to hurt them badly, to blow them up. Make their heads explode. Something inside me is broken. I’ve lost my optimism and that faith in humanity I had. Your everyday’s problems make me want to melt your face off, to peel your skin, so you’ll know how’s my pain, so you’ll carry my cross. You will feel my suffering and you’ll get my scars.

Be a mom 02:58
They tell me I'm a muff and i'm supposed to hide my stuff Since birth that I am wrong Abort my ideas and get along They tell me I must be a mom Forget what's really turning me on Living at society's pace 10-day-make-up dripping on my face Since birth that I'm too serious And now I know that... We are living in a farce And I'm so pissed at the human race They tell me I must be a mom Forget what's really turning me on Since birth that I'm too showy And I'd rather hide my cavities Living at society's pace 10-day-make-up dripping on my face We are living in a farce We are living in a farce They tell me I must be a mom Forget what's really turning me on And I'm so pissed at the human race... And I'm so pissed at the human race...

Play dead 01:48
People think I'm a monster I'd rather say I live with my time I just wanna be on top of the food chain And then I never, never, never get down I come to your house at night Careful not to leave my prints on your shelves Now's a good time to play dead Today is a good day for suffering "What I see is what I get" So I'll help myself to your assets It's no use covering your breasts I'm gonna rip a smile on your face Crawling under your bed like a baby Crying for your mum when you see me Today is a good day for suffering Now's a good time to play dead People think I'm a monster I'd rather say I live with my time I just wanna be on top of the food chain And then I never, never, never get down
