I'm an animal
I'm a victim
I'm the answer to your prayers
I'm a witness
On the witchhunt
I'm the monster of the stairs
I'm ghost that's
In the mirror
I'm everything that you fear
I'm the riptide
I'm the soldier
I'm the voice that's in your head

[Chorus]
I've seen it all
Still can't taste it
Smashed to the wall
That brought me to my knees
I've done it all
Fucked up
Wasted
Still in my blood
But now inside unseen

I'm the hunted
I'm a predator
I'm the answer to the riddle
I'm the upbeat
I'm the headfuck
I'm the way yarn flips to the middle
I the payer
I'm maniving
I'm the one who's not addicted
I'm illogic
Turn the fuck up
I'm the broken one who fixed it

[Chorus X2]

I'm just a child
With tears in it's eyes
I am holding this gift
That is broken
What do I have left now

I've seen it all
I've done it all
I've seen it all
I've done it all

[Chorus X2]

Now inside unseen

    I agree. This song is one of the best from the new album. I am unclear on its meaning though.

    I think the meaning of this song is like the song title, "Seen it All." The lyrics, to me at least, is basically like the opening up of a person. The lyricist tells how he felt, how he feels, and what he did, and what he done. He's trying to let go of the past and his mistakes by burying it deep inside him, but the thought still remains the same. The hurt doesn't go away, and becomes unseen to others. Basically he's been there, and he's done that.

    Everyone knows that it is the cover of the album made from that line cause Jonathan gave it to David Stoupakis it was in all interviews.

    the line "I'm the monster of the stairs" thats wrong instead of (of) its "up" awsome song i really like the bells in the background gives it a nice touch.

    Oh yeah undergod ur right theres alot of different band sounds in this album like "liar" i cant remeber wat its called but it has a static-x sound to it.

    The 'broken gift' could be the band itself, without Head. Like Throw Me Away... in any case, I agree with freakyshe_freakyme. What we need is more bagpipes. We all love bagpipes.

    Lyrics for KoRn Seen it all

    I'm an animal I'm a victim I'm the answer to your prayers I'm a witness On a witch hunt I'm the monster up the stairs I'm ghost that's In the mirror I'm everything that you fear I'm the riptide I'm the soul shock I'm the voice that's in your hair

    [Chorus] I've seen it all Still can't taste it Smashed to the wall it brought me to my knees I've done it all Fucked up Wasted Still in my blood But now inside unseen

    I'm the hunted I'm a predator I'm the answer to the riddle I'm the offbeat I'm the head fuck I'm the way off left in the middle I'm the player I'm the naive I'm the one who's not addicted I'm the logic to the fucked up I'm the broken one who fixed it

    [Chorus X2]

    I'm just a child With tears in it's eyes I am holding this gift That is broken What do I have left now

    I've seen it all I've done it all I've seen it all I've done it all

    [Chorus X2]

    Now inside unseen

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
