Deftonesis a platinum selling, Grammy award winning alternative rockband from Sacramento, California. Frontman Chino Moreno's poetic lyrics—described by a Time magazine critic as "furiously intelligent"—are often evocative, yet are sparse enough to allow for multiple interpretations. Moreno has cited Morrissey, Weezer's Rivers Cuomo, The Cure's Robert Smith, and Depeche Mode's Dave Gahanamong his favorite singers, and beyond an occasional similarity in vocal technique, these singers' sweeping sense of drama and delicate vulnerability is often evident in Moreno's vocals. Deftones members have worked on several side projects, including Moreno's Team Sleepand drummer Abe Cunningam's Phallucy. Guitarist Stephen Carpenter works with a group called Kush, featuring members of Fear Factoryand Cypress Hill.

Lifter Lyrics

Deftones

Watch me with your eyes
Been giving god, Ive been on fire
I want to be just like you
Then Id be cool, maybe not -- but
We lift our eyes, big suprise
Kiss me goodbye -- whore
Without you being here
Ive been getting fear -- been unborn
I wish I could feel like you
When I fuck like you --- being sore -- but
We lift our eyes, big suprise
Kiss me goodbye
And make you burn all that you worked for
Every now I want into her
And I will fuckin must stop
I will never get what I want
Inside I found her
This gift of mine, resing restring unwind, eyes are closed
A part of me gets pissed, a part of me gets sore (3x)
A part of me gets sick, a part of me gets sore (11x)
A part of me gets sick, a part of me gets -- inside Im burned
A part of me gets sore, a part of me gets sick (3x)
A part of me gets sore, so fuckin sick!!!
