Disturbed may refer to:
Disturbed is the second album by Coo Coo Cal, released on September 18, 2001 through Tommy Boy Records. Most of the album was produced by Bigg Hank, though Bink, DJ Cipha Sounds, Rated X and Kay Gee of Naughty by Nature also contributed production to the album.
The album is perhaps best known for its lead single, "My Projects", which became a minor hit on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number 81. It became a bigger hit on the R&B and rap charts, reaching number 22 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks and topping the Hot Rap Singles chart at number one.
The album itself found mild success on the Billboard charts, reaching 45 on the Billboard 200 and number one on the Top Independent Albums. It sold an estimated 800,000 copies.
Disturbed is an American heavy metal band from Chicago, Illinois. The band comprises vocalist David Draiman, bassist John Moyer, guitarist Dan Donegan, and drummer Mike Wengren. Former band members are vocalist Erich Awalt and bassist Steve Kmak.
Formed in 1994 as Brawl, the band was renamed Disturbed in 1996 after Draiman was hired as the band's new vocalist. The band has released six studio albums, five of which have consecutively debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. Disturbed went into hiatus in October 2011, during which the band's members focused on various side projects, and returned in June 2015, releasing their first album in five years, Immortalized, on August 21.
Before David Draiman joined Disturbed, the lineup consisted of vocalist Erich Awalt, guitarist Dan Donegan, drummer Mike Wengren, and bassist Steve "Fuzz" Kmak. Before changing their name to "Brawl", however, Donegan mentioned in the band's DVD, Decade of Disturbed, that the name was originally going to be "Crawl"; they switched it to "Brawl", due to the name already being used by another band. Awalt left the band shortly after the recording of a demo tape; the other three members advertised for a singer. They posted an advertisement in the local music publication in Chicago, Illinois, called the "Illinois Entertainer". Draiman answered the advertisement after going to twenty other auditions that month. Guitarist Dan Donegan commented on Draiman: "You know, out of all the singers that we had talked to or auditioned, he [Draiman] was the only singer who was ready to go with originals. And that impressed me, just to attempt that".
See the dogs come running
Smelling blood now
To an open sore
On the parasite
Countless hearts have fallen
Hard to number
Damnation's whore
Is looking for a victim tonight
With an angry soul
And a wicked design
Your will cannot endure
And your heart is torn away
Chorus:
I was caught up in the moment
We were alone and you seemed to harness the light
Even though I felt cold inside
When you told me it would be alright
I had given up control and
I didn't focus hard enough to see the warning signs
Your heart is serpentine
Damn what I'm becoming
One of them now
Just an opened door
On the endless night
Dark desire burning
In my blood now
How can I be sure
I don't know if I'll be able to fight
With a tortured soul
And an honest design
My will cannot endure
As my heart is torn away
Chorus:
I was caught up in the moment
We were alone and you seemed to harness the light
Even though I felt cold inside
When you told me it would be alright,
I had given up control and,
I didn't focus hard enough to see the warning signs,
Your heart is serpentine,
Now that I've been torn apart,
Will there be an end to this?
Will there finally be release?
Will I finally rest in peace?
I'm determined to believe,
My prayers will be received,
With a tortured soul,
And an honest design,
My will cannot endure,
As my heart is torn away,
Chorus:
I was caught up in the moment,
We were alone and you seemed to harness the light,
Even though I felt cold inside,
When you told me it would be alright,
I had given up control and,
I didn't focus hard enough to see the warning signs,
Your heart is serpentine,
The warning signs,
Your heart is serpentine,
Evil personified,
