Wishers Lose Copper Dreamers Lose Everything

It started last night when I ate a tab
She gave me top till her throat sore
I thought I was living in happy land
Then I woke up it was all gone
I sunk to the bottom the floor of the ocean
I woke up the body of plato
He showed me atlantean holy land
And gave me the key to mankind's hope
I wanted to say so many things but I never did
I wanted to say that you're the reason I escaped my sins
I would do pills if they made the pain go away
But you know they don't
Popping and snorting ain't nothing but band-aids
Rip it off and you got no hope
Going 85 in a 65 tryna make my way on through the night
Red and blue lights right behind me make me think back
To those crucial nights in a Miami county cell
Where I realized that I will become somebody not a waste of a body
Violence isn't the way (isn't the way)

I don't want to be, so I'll drown in the lake
I tried everything, but I'm still not really free
Drown in the lake, we all drown in the lake
Wishers lost a penny, dreamers lost everything
I don't want to be, so I'll drown in the lake
I tried everything, but I'm still not really free
Drown in the lake, we all drown in the lake
Wishers lost a penny, dreamers lost everything

What are you trying to get across in the lyrics to these songs?
It's always about being yourself and not being ashamed
Of being different or thinking different
I try and take everyone's ideals, common morals
Flip them around, make people look at them differently, question them
You're a minister in the church of satan, right?
I think everybody's got a presentation
Everybody looks a certain way because
They want to convey a certain image
You look a certain way because you want people
To listen to you in a certain way
Anything can be misinterpreted
People can look at Christ on a cross and think, t
His is an image of murder, this is violent, this has sexual imagery in it
And it just -- I think it's my job as an artist to be out there
Pushing people's buttons and making them question everything

I don't want to be, so I'll drown in the lake
I tried everything, but I'm still not really free
Drown in the lake, we all drown in the lake
Wishers lost a penny, dreamers lost everything
I don't want to be, so I'll drown in the lake
I tried everything, but I'm still not really free
Drown in the lake, we all drown in the lake
Wishers lost a penny, dreamers lost everything
