Chop Suey! - System of a Down

Album: Toxicity

genre: Metal

Wake up (wake up)
Grab a brush and put on a little makeup
Hide your scars to fade away the shakeup
(Hide the scars to fade away the)
Why’d you leave the keys upon the table?
Here you go, create another fable
You wanted to
Grab a brush and put a little makeup
You wanted to
Hide the scars to fade away the shakeup
You wanted to
Why’d you leave the keys upon the table?
You wanted to

I don’t think you trust
In my
Self-righteous suicide
I cry
When angels deserve to
Die

Wake up (wake up)
Grab a brush and put on a little makeup
Hide the scars to fade away the
(Hide the scars to fade away the shakeup)
Why’d you leave the keys upon the table?
Here you go, create another fable
You wanted to
Grab a brush and put a little makeup
You wanted to
Hide the scars to fade away the shakeup
You wanted to
Why’d you leave the keys upon the table?
You wanted to

I don’t think you trust
In my
Self-righteous suicide
I cry
When angels deserve to die
In my
Self-righteous suicide
I cry
When angels deserve to die

Father (Father) Father (Father)
Father (Father) Father (Father)
Father, into your hands I commend my spirit
Father, into your hands
Why have you forsaken me?
In your eyes, forsaken me?
In your thoughts, forsaken me?
In your heart, forsaken me?

Oh, trust in my
Self-righteous suicide
I cry
When angels deserve to die
In my
Self-righteous suicide
I cry
When angels deserve to die
