Theory Of A Deadman - Theory Of A Dead Man Lyrics






Invisible Man

Haven't seen me lately
Staying hard to find
Well I know it ain't easy
But you know I don't mind

I always know where you are, you never know where I am
You got me sneaking around like the invisible man
You'll never know where I've gone, you've gone and done it again
you've got me sneaking around like the invisible man
Going once, going twice, three times, f*ck this I'm gone
[Edited version: "Going once, going twice, three times I'm gone"]

You've been looking for days now
Oh but I'm not around
I've been finding new ways how
To see that I'm never found

I always know where you are, you never know where I am
You got me sneaking around like the invisible man
You'll never know where I've gone, you've gone and done it again
you've got me sneaking around like the invisible man
Going once, going twice, three times, f*ck this I'm gone
[Edited version: "Going once, going twice, three times I'm gone"]

You can see right through me, outta sight, outta mind
Can you see why it's easy to be the hardest to find

I always know where you are, you never know where I am
You got me sneaking around like the invisible man
You'll never know where I've gone, you've gone and done it again
you've got me sneaking around like the invisible
Like the invisible man
Like the invisible man
Like the invisible man
Like the invisible man
Like I'm invisible
Going once, going twice, three times, f*ck this I'm gone
[Edited version: "Going once, going twice, three times I'm gone"]

Nothing Could Come Between Us

Well I'm running back and forth from here to South Carolina
Wishing you were here, I guess I should watch what I wish for

You're right on time, so invite me in
this is where your trouble begins
But I like you better than the other ones
You say I'm right when you know I'm wrong
we could never just get along
Don't you hate when it gets stuck in your mouth
and then those words get in the way
She said...

Nothing could come between us
One of those favorite things that she used to say
That's just what she said
Nothing could come between us
Sorry to say but I don't feel the same

You're so damn relentless, and you will find,
the two of us are like two of a kind
But it hits you harder than the other ones
You said it loosely, when I'm just sitting here with myself
Don't you hate when it gets stuck in your mouth
and then those words get in the way
She said...

Nothing could come between us
One of those favorite things that she used to say
That's just what she said
Nothing could come between us
Sorry to say but I don't feel the same
Since home is where the hurt is

It's on your conscience, I'm not for sale
It's on your conscience, I'm not for sale

Nothing could come, oh nothing could come
She said...

Nothing could come between us
One of those favorite things that she used to say
That's just what she said
Nothing could come between us
Sorry to say but I don't feel the same
Since home is where the hurt is

Oh nothing, oh nothing, oh nothing
It's on your conscience, I'm not for sale

Make Up Your Mind

Make up your mind and I'll make up mine
Don't worry about me, I'll be fine
Those words that you said to me, why wasn't I listening?
I wish I hadn't met you at all, I started thinking
I'll sit back and relax and wait for the morning

We'll wake up, we'll make up and do this for the last time
We'll wake up, we'll make up and do this for the last time
If we break up, we'll wind up losing both of our minds
So wake up, let's make up and do this for the last time

Make up your mind and I'll make up mine
Don't worry about me, I'll be fine
The last time you yelled at me I swore that I heard you say
I wish I hadn't met you at all, I started thinking
I'l sit back and relax and wait for the morning

We'll wake up, we'll make up and do this for the last time
We'll wake up, we'll make up and do this for the last time
If we break up, we'll wind up losing both of our minds
So wake up, let's make up and do this for the last time

When will we make up, will we break up?
Let's wake up, let's wake up, let's wake up

Make up your mind and I'll make up mine
Don't worry about me, I'll be fine
Those words that you said to me, why wasn't I listening?
I wish I hadn't met you at all, I started thinking

We'll wake up, we'll make up and do this for the last time
We'll wake up, we'll make up and do this for the last time
If we break up, we'll wind up losing both of our minds
So wake up, let's make up and do this for the last time
Let's wake up, let's make up and do this
for the last time
If we break up, we'll wind up losing both of our minds
Let's wake up, let's make up

Point To Prove

The country's gone to hell
But believe me I didn't do it
You left me all alone
And now they call me stupid

Didn't think it would take this long
to see the things that you've been doing
Didn't think I could wait this long
to make the point that you've been proving

Just when you think you've found a friend
That's when they call you stupid
Just when you think that life is dull
That's when they call you pathetic

Didn't think it would take this long
to see the things that you've been doing
Didn't think I could wait this long
to make the point that you've been proving
Didn't think it would take this long
to see the things that you've been doing
Didn't think I could wait this long
to make the point that you've been proving

I wish we all could make it
I wish we all could make it
I wish we all could make it
I wish we all could try, try, try

Didn't think it would take this long
to see the things that you've been doing
Didn't think I could wait this long
to make the point that you've been proving
Didn't think it would take this long
to see the things that you've been doing
Didn't think I could wait this long
to make the point that you've been proving
The point that you've been proving
The point that you've been proving

Leg To Stand On

Get on your horse and ride

What she said to me you would never believe
Someone should have shot the messenger
Was like sticking needles in my eyes
She meant what she said, when I had nothing to lose
Tried to shake you awake but you would not move
Not on your life 'cause I'm on to your lies

Is it just my imagination or did you have me believe
You're not yourself and you're out of line
Is it just my medication or is it wearing away
I'm not myself and I'm out of time

Get on your horse and...

Today, you'd say the same for me
That every man is a prisoner
Was like sticking needles in my eyes
She said I would not feel a thing
Then she wore her goddamn wedding ring
Not on your life 'cause I'm on to your lies

Is it just my imagination or did you have me believe
You're not yourself and you're out of line
Is it just my medication or is it wearing away
I'm not myself and I'm out of time

You haven't got it, you haven't got it,
you haven't got a leg to stand on
You haven't got it, you haven't got it,
you haven't got a leg to stand on
You haven't got it, you haven't got it,
you haven't got a leg to stand on
You haven't got it, you haven't got the time

Is it just my imagination or did you have me believe
You're not yourself and you're out of line
Or is it just my medication or is it wearing away
I'm not myself and I'm out of time
So get on your horse and ride
Just get on your horse and ride

What You Deserve

You try to string me up
You can never get the best of me
Well I've never been to California
And I'll never care if I get there anyway

Don't ever lose your morals
Since I could never fill that hole
And I never burned your letters
But I think I'll like you better
When you get what you deserve

You try to take control
You can never get the best of me
Well I've never been to Tijuana
And I never care if I get there anyway

You never lost your marbles
Since I could never fill that hole
And I never burned your letters
But I think I'll like you better
When you get what you deserve

Give it some time to sink in
Just give me some time to figure it out
Just give me some time to think here
Just give it some time
and you'll get what you deserve

You'll get what you deserve, you'll get what you deserve
You'll get what you deserve, you'll get what's coming
You'll get what you deserve, you'll get what you deserve
You'll get what you deserve, you'll get what's coming
You'll get what's coming

Give it some time to sink in
Just give me some time to figure it out
Just give me some time to think here
Just give it some time and
you'll get what you deserve

The Last Song

The last song
The light that's in your eyes, like everyone wants it to be
Well can't you see that it must be this way
Who knows who's wrong or right
Just as long as you're here tonight
Just like my mother, always taking my likings away
When nobody's watching us

I missed the last song
I blame myself for just standing there too long
I missed the last song
I blame myself for just standing there

I miss the love, I miss the holidays
I miss my best friend, cheap cigars, stupid kids and movie stars
And just like my father, always taking my likings away
When nobody's watching us

I missed the last song
I blame myself for just standing there too long
I missed the last song
I blame myself for just standing there too long

Why does it feel like this world is just not for us
Why does it feel like this world's all they've got for us
Why does it feel like nobody's watching us

I missed her sweet smell, I miss it everyday
I miss my best friend, cheap cigars, stupid kids and moviestars
And I missed the last song and I miss you
And this time this one's for us

I missed the last song
I blame myself for just standing there too long
I missed the last song
I blame myself for just standing there too long
I missed the last song
I missed the last song
I missed the last song
I missed the last song

Say Im Sorry

As I sit in this coffee shop
Halfway through your note, I had to stop
Right near the end, the letter read

Maybe when I leave I'll lead a life less empty
Maybe we were waiting way too long to end this soap opera story
You'll accept just half of all these consequences
Maybe then that's when I'll finally say I'm sorry

Why didn't you, why didn't I, why couldn't we, I wonder why

She called me up the other day
And thank god I knew exactly what to say
You left me with this note and I quote from this note you wrote

Maybe when I leave I'll lead a life less empty
Maybe we were waiting way too long to end this soap opera story
You'll accept just half of all these consequences
Maybe then that's when I'll finally say I'm sorry

Why didn't you, why didn't I, why couldn't we, I wonder why
Why didn't you, why didn't I, why couldn't we, I wonder why
Why didn't you, why didn't I

Maybe when I leave I'll lead a life less empty
Maybe we were waiting way too long to end this soap opera story
You'll accept just half of all these consequences
Maybe then that's when I'll finally say I'm sorry
Whyd idn't you, why didn't I, why couldn't we, I wonder why
Maybe then that's when I'll finally say I'm sorry
Whyd didn't you, why didn't I

Any Other Way

You've tried to open your mouth but only shit would come out
I always wondered where you got it from
You haven't heard a damn word I've said,
you never believed in anything I did
I don't care what you're doing, do what you want to,
look where it got you

You can't help yourself
I know you'll never change
You say you don't need anyone
And wouldn't have it any other way

Just try to open your eyes and try my life on for size
I always wondered who you're hiding from
You haven't heard a damn word I've said,
you never believed in anything I did
I don't care who you're doing, do who you want to,
look what it got you

Well you can't help yourself
I know you'll never change
You say you don't need anyone
And wouldn't have it any other way

Oh you made a big mistake, and won't admit it
You say you don't need anyone
Oh you made a big mistake, so don't forget it
I know you'll never change
and wouldn't have it any other way

You can't help yourself
I know you'll never change
You say you don't need anyone
You say you don't need anyone
You say you don't need anyone

You've tried to open your mind and leave your last life behind
I always wondered what you're running from

Oh you made a big mistake, and won't admit it
You say you don't need anyone
Oh you made a big mistake, so don't forget it
I know you'll never change
and wouldn't have it any other way
You say you don't need anyone, anyway
You say you don't need anyone
and wouldn't have it any other way
You say you don't need anyone, anyway
You say you don't need anyone
and wouldn't have it any other way

Confession

Felt like the earth was alive
Felt like a life worth living
Too bad that knife in my back was so heavy
And now the bitch is gone, but still the knife remains
So glad she's packed and gone already

Well it's like...
Life after death is life after you
Half of all of this is gonna have to do
Is gonna have to do

This time the cohice was mine
This time I just won't give in
Too bad that knife in my back was so heavy
And now the picture's gone, but still the dust remains
I hope she's missing me already

Well it's like...
Life after death is life after you
Half of all of this is gonna have to do
Life after this is life after you
Half of all of this is gonna have to do
Is gonna have to do

Well it's like...
Life after death is life after you
Half of all of this is gonna have to do
Life after this is life after you
Half of all of this is gonna have to do
Is gonna have to do
Half of all of this is gonna have to do
Is gonna have to do
I hope she's missing me already

The album contained the hit single "Make Up Your Mind". It also featured the singles "Nothing Could Come Between Us", "Point to Prove" and "The Last Song," (which was originally called "Theory of a Deadman"), both of which were solely written by Tyler Connolly, the band's lead singer. The album bears a Parental Advisory label due to expletives in "Invisible Man", "Any Other Way", and "Confession". A clean version was released that removed the expletives. The track 'Invisible Man' was also featured on the 2002 Spider-Man film soundtrack.

The album received mixed reviews from critics but sold very well. It would later certified Platinum in Canada as well as charting at number 85 on the US Rock Albums chart.
