Hope unkown. Sometimes just waking is surreal.
I walk right through the nameless ones.
I know that hope's unknown.
Sometimes the water feels so real.
As I walk through it fills my lungs, my god, I'm drowning.
This day never seems to end.
This pain, never.
The rage I will not let go.

I hear them calling.
I feel them gnawing out holes through flawless soulds.

So alone. Sometimes I swear that I can hear the taunting of the voiceless ones.
I fear that I alone fear those ceased to feel they're alone inside of this place.
I am the misplaced.
Now every faCe, it looks familiar...
then every face would melt away until...
now everyone, do you know, I know your deception?

    General Comment:I have to agree slightly with theFrailtyofWrds. I think Dexter's voice is cool, but here he sounds bad as he tries to copy the original.
    I love the original song though, and I love all other of The Offsprings songs (well maybe not When You're In Prison)

    General Comment:This version is horrendous in comparison to the godly anthem that is AFI's Totalimmortal.

    General Comment:I hate when people start to discuss tastes.
    Musically the cover was good, and if you like Dexters voice or not that is your personal opinion.

    Oh and if you are trying to give a subjective opinion at least try to argument it.

    General Comment:Ok, this song is not better then the original. *Sighs* Ok, my opinion might be slightly biased, but i've personally never liked Dexter's voice that much, and while Davey's voice is effeminate, i still love it. Another rule i go by is that the cover is never as good as the original. EVER. This cover didn't suck too badly though, but not as rough, i guess, and the bass is not as prominent. Plus AFI has better backup singers *pokes tongue out at offspring fans*

    General Comment:This version is so much better than the original.
    And yes Arm you're right: it's because Dexter's voice is so much better!!!

    General Comment:This song is way better then the AFI version. Why? Because of Daveys efferminate screeching voice. I hate it. Dexter sounds alot better.

    General Comment:yeah- dropthebible... you're not stupid haha just "misguided", if you will. I know "Halloween" is a Misfits cover, but totalimmortal definitely isn't. I think the offspring's cover of this song isn't bad at all- but I wouldn't actually listen to it on a regular basis when I can just listen to the real version by AFI... it's such an amazing song. alright i'm done.

    General Comment:anyway, i have to agree and disagree with most of you. yes, i agree that dexter cannot and i doubt ever will sound like havok, whether you consiter that good or bad. instrumentally though, this song kicks AFI's ass. i don't know about the misfit's version because honestly I don't listen to them :/
