Cold is your heart
When you're heart has been broken
Love is what's lost
When the loss leads to loathing
Pain's what you've got
When you've got
Got going
There is your food
And your food's
Got you choking

[Bridge]
Touch a good game
'Cause the rules are the same
I can't deny that we'll miss him
Now that you've killed
It's a much bigger pill
'Cause larger words are missing

[Chorus]
Say what you will
Where's your father figure?
Say what you will
Where's your father figure
Now?

Spun is your head
And your head is unfolding
Crushed is your soul
And your soul is unloading
Torn are your thoughts
And your thoughts
Make life hopeful
Gone is the cost
And the cost
Is un-hopeful

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

Say what you will
Where's your father figure?
Say what you will
Where's your father figure?
Say what you will
Where's your father figure?
Say what you will
Where's your father figure?

Army of Anyone

Army of Anyone was a supergroup formed by Filter frontman Richard Patrick with two of the then-former members of rock band Stone Temple Pilots. In addition to Patrick on vocals, the band featured Dean DeLeo and Robert DeLeo on guitars and bass, respectively, and Ray Luzier, formerly of David Lee Roth's band, on drums. The band released one self-titled album in November 2006. The band went into hiatus in mid-2007 to return to their respective bands, except Luzier, who joined a new band, Korn. However, members have alluded to the possibility of a second album if they are able to work around everyone's scheduling conflicts. more »
