Just thot i'd post some lyrics for those of u without the album, i know it wont come as much of a comfort but shit it worth the wait...
I had this song so wrong in the dodgy live recording that was floating about....
SUPERHERO

When you praise my name i'll fulfill your expectation
looking for an answer that'll dignify your prayers
What remains when your savior becomes human?
You feel the legend something sacred
you cant understand
becomes bigger than the man.

Chorus
PRAY FOR HELP CRY OUT SCREAM FOR ME NOW
IM NOT YOUR SUPERHERO
PRAY FOR HELP CRY ILL SCREAM FOR U NOW
IM NOT YOUR SUPERHERO

All my love and hate radiate and become equals
Untouchable enmity has always been my fate
mine alone agony destined to suffer.
Eternally my story never goes as planned
And its bigger than the man

Chorus

Once upon a time i would do anything
For anyone; at anytime
And all i asked for was your faith
Was that to much to ask?

Ther is no god there is no king
There is no saint of broken dreams
There's only you and truth and soul
The superhero is you own...
 
Thought I might help out a bit.

WCFYA
The mind can atrophy
such mediocrity
things aren't what they seem
sometimes
and every waking dream
repeating central theme
if we don't wake up do we die?
and when the best can be
worse than what's usually
found it's all between
the lines
then patience starts to bleed
increasing enmity
its time to let the bullets fly

developed all exposure
revealing no composure
the gates are open wide
the wrecking ball is here
your chest contains no treasure
the prisoners are loose
we've come for you all

pay the expected fee
for the insanity
now the reflection's deeply
lined
all systems fail and seize
break down and spill the grease
aggressive tendencies designed

and every element
will force a consequence
it takes a slanted state of mind
then patience starts to bleed
increasing enmity
it's time to let the bullets fly
 
Thanks kaiyan and Jockthrax for the lyrics! What about posting more lyrics - e.g. Nobody Knows Anything..?
 
Nobody Knows Anything

I've been choking on the air that you've been giving me
it's all a game to you, to me it's an atrocity
as you add another loop onto my noose
i lose all sense of what is abuse

'cause it's always been a bone of contention
this game of "what it is that i've done for you"
I've given you everything for nothing in return
and i'm so tired of bleeding for the respect that i've earned

because no, nobody knows, nobody knows
because nobody knows anything

I don't know how much generosity that I can take
until I leave a trail of bodies lying in my wake
how many times do I lose my mind 'til I realize
give me the high hat and you think that i should compromise?
