What's The Word? Lyrics


So what's the word?
I'm looking for a word that can ease the pain
That we all suffer from living in a world that's insane
A simple word I could shout out or blurt
And that would take away all of the hurt
A word to soothe your soul when the tears flow
And that would make the smile on your face glow
Bury your bad memories in a deep grave
Free your mind from the chains of an emotional slave
A word as pretty as a purple sunset
A word so powerful you'll never forget
That I'd be willing to do anything for you
But I just need to know what to doI'm looking for a word, is it a secret word?
I wish there was a wordI wish there was a word that could help you heal
That could take away all the pain you feel
Not asking for a word that can cure a disease
Just a word to put your mind at ease
I'm looking for a way to communicate

That all the people on the earth can relate
I'm looking for a word that won't let you down
That'll give you strength when I'm not around
A word that can fill you up when you're past empty
A peaceful place in your mind that's is always rent freeYea I got to slow down
Cause too much is going down
How many times can one person cry?
How many times can one person die?I'm looking for the word, that special magic word
I'm looking for the word, the secret wordSo what's the word?
So what's the word?
My, my, my, another lie
Why, why, why, you got to lie?So what's the word?
I spend too much time wondering what the hell is wrong with me
Where all you see is joy, pain is all I see
Suffocating in a world full of schemers
(Who are) Taking advantage of the hopes of the dreamers
I need a word to let you know that I need help
Cause sometimes I get so down on myself
Trying to find my place in this madness
Drowning myself in a cesspool of sadnessYea I got to slow down
Cause it's getting so out of hand
Half of my homies that stood so proud next to me
Are doing time in the state penitentiaryLie. lie, lie, until you die
Lie, lie, lie, until you die
So what's the word?

Suicidal Tendencies is an American crossover thrash band formed in 1982 in Venice, California. Sometimes regarded as the progenitors of skate punk, they later incorporated significant heavy metal and thrash elements. The group, led by Mike Muir ("Cyco Miko"), had a rough start that included being voted "Worst Band/Biggest Assholes" in Flipside in 1982. Using the opposition to fuel creativity, they quickly gained a following, performing larger and larger gigs. As the size grew, so did the rumors of gang relations and violence (eventually leading to a Los Angeles ban on public performances by Suicidal Tendencies). The band signed with the indie label Frontier Records and issued their classic self-titled debut in 1983. The album was the best-selling hardcore album up to that point. It included many memorable songs. The video for Institutionalized was one of the first hardcore punk videos to receive substantial airplay on MTV. It was also used in the Emilio Estevez cult classic movie Repo Man and an episode for the hit TV show Miami Vice (which included a cameo appearance by the group). Recently the track has been used in the blockbuster movie Iron Man. Their song Possessed to Skate solidified their status as a premier skate punk band. How Will I Laugh Tomorrow has become one of the band's most acclaimed songs. After lineup changes and side projects, including the Infectious Grooves, they have continued to release albums and (as of 2004) are working on a new album and a Live-DVD to be titled "Return to Venice."
Former Bass player Robert Trujillo currently plays for Metallica and former guitar player Rocky George joined Fishbone.
