Angry youth
MR. Elite Your older now Inside your head lives an old scene MR. Punk Sad and hating everyone Your exucuse is old The way you felt has left you hating yourself Cause everyone is so confused You never worked for a cent Self0destructive you pay your debt Cause you miss another time when all your friends were divine Now all of them have gone or changed Do you still live in angry days? But when you've lost someone you love When your mask is taken off Does life cut you down to siz? Does it open your eyes? Because they all have found their way as you struggle through your maze You built those walls of hate Don't tell me it's too late |

The turn out tonight is weak
The crowd is looking meager Only 40 to 50 in the flock but 3 more beers and I'm playin' Woodstock And you can probably see that we're not all that tight A couple more drinks will alter your sight That does not mean fight I'm not saying I have to be drunk but tequila shots make it more fun I'm havin' fun (Chorus) Oh, Beer Goggles I love to put them on Next to eachother at the bar She's thinkin' he's the one I'm thinkin' where's my car She thinks I look good Obviously she didn't smell that fart "Oh, what kind of cologne is that you're wearing?" Hey man, it's a start "Hi, my name's Barbie" "My name's Ken" The perfect couple 'cause we're drunk in the head I'm drunk again (Repeat Chorus) And one size fits all!!! |

I can't recall the hurting words that I once said
So long ago, still indignation clouds your head And it's enough to know the pain of losing friends You perpetuate certain senseless hate and I can picture you today as you say "I used to know that guy" And as you speak they watch your face split into two And when you see me it's always hey Joe, how is it goin' bro? where have you been man? We used to be such good friends Two-faced you don't care You know what you can do with it I can't pretend and you just want a war man and there you go again You ought to bury the hatchet and leave behind all the lies and your disguise You know that I just want to bury the hatchet How much more will you permit? Think about it you'll admit you a Am I really that bad? Sometimes I second guess Often times I wonder why my head is such a mess But put yourself in my shoes and picture if you can All these insecurities create that bitter sad man you see hurting Not me I forgive, I forget I won't say the things that I'll regret Not this time I will stop, but just between you and me it's a loss Hypocrite Don't give me that shit |

Too many hangars in the closet
A clutter of confusion Too little rectitude to hold a moral absolute Too much distinction to relate to them Irresolutions we contemplate with no end In this world of give and take And what we refer to as maturity from emotional need to technology has you, a cultured seed of your society, lacking ability to feel clemency I'm surprized we still bleed into the abyss of despair that's hiding the child Compassion you would not dare admit to have experienced Do you regret looking back? A penitent confessing his sins The child inside of me recalls a time of purity, an outlook of release You remember Confident that you were able A future laid out on your table Running through memories a child is free The world restored you see I see The child inside of me |

He grew up with nothing
He lived and died poor a father of four He left his family temporarily for a future based on words of chicanery They said join the Army Join the Navy He joined the Marines and his children were proud but exhaltation was exhausted and patronage died when this expendable number left his family of five Imposture and all that man wanted was to provide a better existence for his kids and wife An investment that cost him his life A family of ethics has... A fatality of war can't be noble enough to justify the loss of life so young Continental security Atonement, there's no such thing There was no hero in the end Only letters of resent, remorse, regret Bitter resent Imposture and all those boys wanted was to be alive, a return of existence yet so many died and those who returned were alone with nothing awaiting at home Again the headlines read "A Noble Soldier Finds A Noble Ending" They are the ones who can be done without Expendable numbers forgott no doubt A family of ethics has died |

It opened our eyes We swallowed their pride A new era So whee is the new advise It seems the older methods no longer suffice The very oldeest if thoughts cast into the mold of these new times Vindictive, he raises his fist The animal is instinctive Everyone desires peace but indread of war, still arms increase Perpetual with only one end When that savage nature destroys them all All is written All is forgiven All is lived again After all, this worthless progress is progress made for change After all these vain advances does that concerned animal value his life?

Wasting his days and his nights
Nothing's changed Nothing's right He has no sense of pride Sees no respect in his parents eyes and why should he care? No one ever cared for him? Wasting her nights and days Sixteen with a child God wouldn't have it any other way And then they told her of shame and that impurity made her bed no fuckin' CHOICE She took two lives instead All these worthless nights Al Down the path I follow you because who am I? Denial I still care but it's my life in despair Laughing harder In self-concious I've played my last solitaire That shirt's too tight to wear Wasting my days nad nights Nothings changed Nothings right I know I'm not exactly the parents guide to living but it's the road less traveled in this world so unforgiving and I've lost count of score |

Can't you see
we the people can make the choices You and I must raise our voices To build a future where we belong Revoke oppression and right and wrong But do you vote or do you only complain Do you just carry on in vain As your economy crashes, your country goes to war The deficit Their answer to tax the poor But you may never know what you refuse to learn Do you work the system or do you get burned? Do you ignore your abilities or your intellect? Are you obse An easy out, you forget it all but it's the hardest path and you chase to follow You wouldn't speak for yourself and now you're spoken for This is something you can not ignore It's time for you to notice the things that die with no more lies You can't deny You're always high and you still bitch Makes me sick It makes me sick the way you always fuckin' bitch I remember a time when I thought it wasn't fair The scales of justice did impair but with no darkness theere would never be light there would never be light Without injustice we'd never have a right |

In This faltering nation
the future belongs to the children in school There's something wrong 6th grader on crack Hangun overflowing in his hands Now he is just further demand We search for the source and still that child is left watching Inhumanity, bloodshed as the tele-violence feeds his head (Chorus) Only if he knew the consequence of greed A concious state of mind T.V. is not reality Never a victim the role model said Bamg, bang the bad guy is dead Always a rockstar on eMpty T.V. The lesson complete Now the child has needs of competition they bleed Oh beautiful for bills of green Nevermind spacious skies overhead Bleed the earth and butter your bread (Repeat Chorus) Child turns on T.V. What does he see? Nature of man, dishonesty That child grows old Story be told as he sits behind bars and his soul growz cold |

Hey, where did we go days when the rain came?
Down in the hollow, playin' a new game Laughin' and a-runnin', hey, hey, skippin' and a-jumpin' In the misty mornin' fog with our hearts a-thumpin' at you The brown-eyed girl You're my brown-eyed girl Now, what ever happened? Tuesday is so slow Goin' down the old man river with a transistor radio Standin' in the sunlight laughin' Hidin' behind a rainbow wall Slippin' and a-slidin' all along the waterfall with you The brown-eyed girl You're my brown-eyed girl Do you remember when, ah, we used to sing? Sha la la la la la la la la la la dee dah Sha la la la la la la la la la la dee dah La dee dah So hard to find my way now that I'm all on my own I saw you just the other day; my, how you had grown Sometimes overcome thinkin' 'bout Makin' love in the green grass, behind the stadium with you The brown-eyed girl You, my brown-eyed girl Do you remember when, ah, we used to sing?

Here comes the day I see my friends far away,
When I grow up inside what will happen to me? The city sights the business types, I can see but where are you? Bye for now. Didn't mean to let you down, Didn't mean to drive you away. Bye for now! Now that your not around, So many things I'd like to say! See here I think I've found the missing link, The piece that holds us together. If I had my way I'd here you say that it's OK, Friendship should last for ever. Bye for now. Didn't mean to let you down, Didn't mean to drive you away. Bye for now! Now that you're not around, So many things I'd like to say! Didn't mean to let you down. Didn't mean to let you down. Didn't mean to let you down. Didn't mean to let you down. Didn't mean to let you down. Never meant to let you down. Didn't mean to let you down. |

omission I feel broken down inside because my words seem to be trite adding to the overwhelming Always a question of truth your truths question my efficiency Shocking - The words you can't hear Impact - The words I can't write Recycled words don't justify... none of these words suffice searching for the sharp words to drive the message in I put the last words down then I begin to question the truth |

Trying to ignore him
Trying to have self control When that tongue slips just once It's in his eyes Thank you... Silence by energy Push me down And the likes to come again Here to make you listen to them Treated to many times The eye for eye has left us blind This creature of demise Repaid all the time You hate them You hate yourself Take it out on someone else I feel a change within myself I used to be out of control I always knew anger and pain That inspiration was a game But now it seems as I grow old As I mature I'm lesser bold I can't believe how cruel and cold some people act I give it back Cause I don't want it and I don't need it So I give it back Cause I don't want it and I don't need it Don't want to understand the child abuse, the past gone violence Don't justify his violent nature Soon or later I hope he meets his maker once again And like his father before him he kills himself Cause I don't want it and I don't need it So I give it back Cause I don't want it and I don't need it You hate them You hate yourself Take it out on someone else |

Gotta drive all night if not a go Got to designate a driver before the show It's your turn now at the wheel There's nothing like a guard rail To wake you up in the middle of the night And we are drivin' north, goin' south It looks like we'll sleep here We're out of beer We're headed south on the north bound Our wheels might as well be square Cause we're not really getting anywhere Tire tracks throughout, felt the brakin' I don't think we're gonna make it Drivin' around, goin' down It looks like we'll sleep here, I need a beer South, goin' south, check us out we're goin' south South, headed south, check it out, we're goin' down South, goin' south |

One summer morning
He left us ashamed In some small town of small ways The one they feared They might turn to stone They feared to hold his hand And he died alone Don't leave them on - an island of shame Your solution You - homophobic You - coward You send them away to an island of misery You're not immune to any disease I can not argue when the truth is plain to see In your beliefs, your fear of death I see reflections of society We'll take our last breath - alone Adding insult to injuries - He was alone |

Look at the world in disbelief
You used to follow - now you lead College has enlightened you And you are proud to be different And like different bands - different types You ain't nobody's fool It's like certain bands remind you of someone you hated 'Cause they didn't wear the right clothing And there's only one true fashion Alot of the bands on the college charts are great bands Until they get signed. Then you hate them It's such bullshit - you used to love them you hypocrite Know it all, know it all Did you really listen to that song? Could you ever write what you call wrong? I remember you and I listening to bands that we liked Only the songs mattered to you But now you're a D.J. and preaching that hype ""Corporate Rock Sucks"" ""You know, college radio enlightens you"" It's supposed to serve as a means to expose new bands Without prejudice, but it makes no sense Safe harbor for the underground 'Til the alternative becomes the popular sound The bands are good 'til they make enough cash To eat food and get a pad Then they're sold out and their music is cliché Because talent's exclusive to bands without pay Know it all, know it all Did you really listen to that song? Could you ever write what you call wrong? Know it all |

Labors of commitment
Blood of his arms A growing sense of duty But in his song he's screaming out Insuficient - he just falls further Behind Principles, purpose, tradition, time Weigh heavy on this guilty Mind Wits astray Blind in rage, awar he'll wage on grieving Another no one hanging from the ceiling Because only the extreme makes an impression When drowning in the mainstream One at the mercy of another's faith finally answers to no one in his fall from grace They say they love him but how could they ever Miles above him they ask for repent It doesn't matter what you want from me Don't think there's worth in my apology Because people never really change You and I will always be the same and it's a problem that we can't mend Because it happened once it will happen again Because they plant their seeds of condition Until we have no choice, we lose conviction wits astray Blind in rage a war he'll wage on grieving Another no one blows his head off Because only the extreme makes an impression When drowning in the mainstream no one |

They make your bed, don't they
Long ago they fought and died for faith - what's changed ? It's said that we've acquired tolerance to build more bridges Cross those rivers, yet modern man enslaves his conscious and the undertow of blame still flows between Give it birth to the machine - hostilities of ancestry Slow to understand the variance - quick to judge on one aspect - rust We call them fools today - they will call us fools in days to come - always In any age it's ignorance He that he's not with me is against me The river of pride swells to high, washing those bridges out to sea Give it birth to the machine Too proud to love - Too proud Soaking in your fears - rusting away Never comprehending - always condescending Slow to understand the variance - quick to judge - quick to condem Carried them for years - stones that they once cast Place the blame on them as if it were their past Yesterdays distrust Resent, Regret, disgust Still we pay for their living - pay for their mistakes Who will cast the latest stones of hate Pay for their misgivings - pay for their living - still we find that on the surface there is rust |

Friday night's the perfect night to mow some neighbor's lawn,
And Dave is drunk and at the helm before too long. And Chris will gladly ride shotgun, 'cause navigating seems like fun, Drunk and out of gas, they drive around and crash. They're driving through your yard, there's nothing you can do, Dave's behind the wheel, and he's had more than just a few. Suburban families slumber in civility, Awakened to the sights and sounds of the yard they're blowing down in their death machine. Drive, drive, drive, drive, drive, drive... Dave's a midnight landscaper, and he's working overtime, And he is full throttle--full throttle tonight. (Alright!) He was almost home, just one more block, he had to hit that last mailbox, Dumped it in a ditch, ain't that a bitch? (Stoking the neighbors!) Came time to run, came time to bail, He was having too much fun to spend the night in jail. He had no "Triple A" for a tow truck, Called them anyway: Goleta, hear them say, "Hey pal, you're fucked!" Dave's a decent guy, like most of us, until he drinks, And then his liquid mind takes over how he thinks. And then all that matters is having fun, pulling off the next beer run, On one too many nights, the party's over. He's driving through your yard, there's nothing you can do, Dave's behind the wheel, and he's had more than one or two. Suburban families slumber in civility, Awakened to the aftermath: the neighbors have been stoked... |

Sometimes you have to let go when there's Next to nothing You say everytime she says no There's more pain then love It comes o shove almost Everytime you speak Somehow you fight Something's just crazy Somehow it's taking all the life left in you You'er losing ground Carrying that torch Your not asking for much As she has... Had time to heal And she doesn't need you any longer an you... Had time to drink And you call her to tell her you've gotten much stronger At three in the morning she says stop calling cause... Everyone's asleep Some of us work You're driving me crazy When will you get on with my life Now every nights Friday night Picking fights with your friends Somehow trying to make amends So you seach for comfort in a friend It's not the same she won't understand You both learned to think alike So what was so wrong Where's she tonight Out there drinking while you're left in thinking It's taken all the life left in... You You're losing ground Carrying that torch You're not asking for much Still somehow You'll wait for her You say she'll return But you still carry that torch That girl |

He knows no shame, and takes no blame
This simpleton, sees everything He's only satisfied, To point out other's mistakes Never afraid, to use his pride His tradition is old, His faith a hand-me-down, the family He wears them on his sleeve, Morale and values left under a christmas tree He once had the gift, This image in his grandparents eyes No guns, no drugs, no rape, no end This vacant soul, is pale and blue, In empty gaze, his crow's feet are A vision of defeat sick And tired of the meaninglessness The irrationale he's desensitized, His every need and emotion A cup half empty, But full of euphoria he's, Searching for the light switch in the dark, To switch his routine To find a reason, To find faith in piece of mind When one to many beliefs die, It's tough to see through these black eyes Everyone forgives everyone forgets Everyone is true And no one here will lie to you He knows the truth, He knows the truth, Here nothing's certain Disregard what you've learned, To find faith in piece of mind All of their gods died with his peace, I should know him that heathen?s me |

And now you're searching
For that new messiah It's your greatest passion, To set'em up and knock'em down Put them on a pedestal idolatry, Wear the ring you're married It's all yours to their envy, Because you hold a higher key of senses And they are drawn like magnets, To a genius, it's confirmed Chorus Set'em up and knock'em down, Tour taste is so accountable This is no great loss, And sharing never was a choice It's burning on your cross, It gives you credit and a voice Here to relay tour beautiful ideals Vicaruiously through them And when he died too many were sympathetic, And they are all pathetic So you dethrone your king, Without listening, without ever listening And Jesus Christ is realized, As he burns on your cross But this is no great loss, Another one will come The wait is short the search is brief, You find another faith, Another Clark Kent, another Superman, Flashing in the pan [repeat chorus] And now you are searching For that new messiah It's your greatest passion, It's the latest fashion |

(chorus) and now it seems you haven't learned the lesson i guess you have to share the pain andnow your tainted blood leaves stains behind your back and in thier words i hear your shame how can you lie to me when in your eyes i can see glazed and vacant as you're caught in the act you've always wanted this now you feel the stab are you happy to be sad is there pleasure in the...(repeat chorus) as it make you sick do i make you scared when you see what you once were as you're shaving your head the scared boy thinks he's safe if you can't read his eyes but you can read you can read his eyes his lies |

I've been living for years in question, some obsession
Was I less to live with no answers, as a life cried wolf I'm ashamed to mention my anguish, but silence lies empty If I say it again can I kill it, will you lend me your ears Breathe in breathe out exhale, acting sweating A broken smile provides them a view, projection is nothing new Just once I would like them to feel it, suffer in my skin For a moment stand in my shoes, filled with swelling blues [chorus] I keep this room, and this room keeps me, chained to my organs I am quarantined, to a place that's dark, staring at three walls The door is locked to them Maybe now that they all know it, you'll find solace As you're drowning in narcissism, or is it self-loathing You fought it all in your head boy, psychosomatic They used to humor you now they pity you, and nothing's changed [repeat chorus] The door is locked behind me, if I say it again can I kill it 'Cause they're sick of my complaining and i am sick of being sick Maybe these will cure you completely, chemicals deeply Saviors until you're dependent, don't let them go to your head I'm ashamed to mention my anguish, but silence lies empty, silence lies |

Hi, it's me I'm bored again, all is well I'm not insane
I've been drunk for seven days, everything is fine I made some friends, broke the ice, then I ate some bread and cheese To gain some weight, keep me warm everything's okay. It's me, delivering psychosis, over the phone to you I color your world blue, ten thousand miles from you I'm sinking all alone, treading new waters, We're is my buoy? The van smells like a dirty sock, everyone has got the flu I'd rather be sick of you, I'd rather be asleep It's me, delivering psychosis, over the phone to you I color your world blue, ten thousand miles from you I'm sinking all alone, treading new waters, I'm missing my buoy When I get home, the band will have, it's first hit song You and I, will buy some rings, and a suburban home I'll bring home, the bacon bits, we'll make our parents grandparents I'll take you out, to breakfast at night, and then we'll go to sleep |

I am just another fool, and I have to, keep telling myself that I am just a hypocrite, and I have to, keep calling you one Cause I forgot to bite my tongue, and my assumption, is the mother of all mistakes But I assume the role, open my mouth, and clumsy words escape So why you, wanna be there, when you could be here, you are slipping away I awake to your replacement, a bottle in my mouth, in an unfamiliar place Because you put me out, the butt of a sick joke, into this ashtray life As you come and go, cause I forgot to service you, and we broke down And you can't live with my mistakes, but I assume false grace Open my arms and grasp for something true How are you, how have you been, girl I miss you, wanna see you again Oh why you, wanna be there, when you could be here, you are slipping away I bring out the worst in you, and you try to let me know You bring out the worst in me, anxiety, anxiety I'm trying to let you go, you say I'm giving you the creeps But I assume the role, open my claws and grasp for your heart How are you, how have you been, girl I miss you, wanna see you again Into you like a mortal stake so vindictive Your love's slipping away Violins, into this ashtray life Violins, the butt of your sick joke Violins, I'm trying hard to let you go Violins |

Would it make you feel much better
If it was you against the world If you were an alien If it were conspiracy and would it hurt to live in comfort If you found someone to trust If you knew that you were with us If we shared a common goal But you will isolate, alienate No one can appreciate the poor miss understood Can you see that I don't care anymore Do you ever stop to listen Are you a martyr for your pride Does it makes you fell much better When you are an alien? |

As you in this search for something to hate
I can feel you rally around someone with your peers but can you stand alone Can you take the long way home Cause I stood in the circle a hundred times before and I feel safer in the eye of a storm You can throw your stones I'll only bleed for you one day They all answer to the hearsay but they will only care for one day It's so small and I would love to show you all I can see you in the middle of a doubt You told them we had a falling out Sick your dogs on me as you take the easy way out So I will be a freak show when the circus comes to town and I will rain on your parade without a sound Then we will draw a crowd that's only breaking down for one day I graduate this calss with honors I will never fail drama Making Friends Will you still hate me tomorrow? |

Here's a song to all my friends
I know they'd like I remember every drunken night at the old dive Driving the ol'wreck Trying to make it home somehow One more pit stop at our favorite watering hole The ghost of Christmas past swallowed all our pride We'd open up our story books and water down the eyes our demons raised their glasses singing "I propose a toast to my friends" Who's buying the next round Cup half empty Cup half full Perspectives and beers They weren't failure Just the regulars of my favorite year They come and go paying their toll From mobiles homes Decaying old unsound minds The ghost of Cristmas failure dancing to the click of time The beating of defeat Shaking in his hands a lifetime of retreat And his regrets were ours A time to say good-bye I've been waiting so long for you to call my old friend To all my friends... |

Her cheeks are soaked The drink is empty And now he is everything she hates Her lowest day It's all the same It's all the same This house is drowning in inevitable silence And it's always been on In another born sick love Never made her question right or wrong In a see of failure he's numb Upstairs disgust Small words cut through what once was their trust And then he gots everything he wants Silent treatement She's out of breath There's no one left around He will have regret when there is nothing left to say And it's alway been on In another born sick love Never made him question right or wrong In a see of failure he's numb It's already killed me That's aleready killed me It's already been there That's nothing new I overdosed I dug an hole I buried them and died with you In a sea of failure and I am numb |

Everything that i've done here into one in keeping with...
Some earned conviction, some stagnation, Some change despair Disappointment and odds In a costume you can't take off I leave it behind. I know that this time i get in for free Our latest rendition lame Reincarnate, return the same Still the best times are her now. Now that I'm bored, now that I'm numb Done, I know this is wrong Safe in that stance but incomplete Leave it behind. I know that this time i get in for free. Some of it's habitual sometimes the change is not enough And in the lost empathy memories of better days |

You jump in front of the bullet
The family put you to it You might survive the first thousand shots Back to the end of the line You hold the will to survive them Answer to those you have failed Time to clean your room and show you are able to stop Beating yourself down You've arrived A wealth of respect, a world of a regard You've always belonged You have to go on I just want you to feel the gun in your hand You used to hold aspiration You couldn't see the limitations Even in your youth you were unsurpassed But driven by grief and it couldn't last Sometimes promise Sometimes goodbye Confessed to all through bloodshot eyes I just want you to feel the gun in your hand yeah It only breaks you until you get off I'm not gonna watch you kill yourself to live It's all so average until you get off I'm not gonna wait here until the body's cold I was young too I felt just like you Hated authority, hated all my bosses Thought they were full of shit Well it's like they say: If you're not a rebel at the age of twenty, You got no heart But if you haven't turned establishment by thirty, You got no brains Because there are no storybook romances No... fairy tale endings so before you run out to change the world, (I just want you to feel the gun in your hand) Ask yourself: What do you really want? |

No one here's surprised but you Embellish it, the truth is you're a slave Addicted to it's escalating And your love story's bad Drama makes you livid And the nervous way you laugh I'm fresh out of advice And sick of standing in this harms way Interstate, in debate, an impasse Driving out of hope and gas Arriving at the same mute conclusion This destination failure This is going, going Nowhere slow Drama is exhausting and I'd rather be alone I want better friends I'm sick of getting into harms way And so are they Sick of being around something That's destined to fail And the sum of it's parts cannot see They make me hat life, hate friends, Hate being there Iknow, that it's not funny but it's true No one gives a shit but you Maybe I'll just swallow all these thoughts Maybe someday you'll stop |

Rat in the sewer, scraps they left behind Once their visionary, and they all have robbed you blind Your broken records playing for None fabricate song Amputated creative tongue You sing on and on and I can tell you why I'm bringing you down, Calling you out, Taking your shield It's easier now Years have been kind Distance between Has given hind sight I jumped a train Your tragedy so easy to read, Is bitter envy They're reaping all the lowly benefits You missed the train they stole And you've never...

I'm kinda down about it
I'm kinda sick about this feeling Talking brings it up And I'm kinda short on feelings And I kinda got the feeling that I'm losing everyone Could this be all? Could it linger any more? What an endless fall; there's no use to call it off. So I'm rolling down the stairwell And I'm giving in; these thoughts sound angry Talking brings it up So now I'm down about it I'm kinda sick about this feeling Drinking brings it up And I don't even know why I shouted out I'm the one who's being left out-- Again. I'm kinda down about it I'm kinda sick about this feeling Talking brings it up Could this be all? Could it linger any more? In an endless fall, there's no use to call it off And I don't even know why I try it at all I'm the one who's being left out Yeah, I don't even know why I try it at all I'm the one who's being left out I'm the one who's living with it all. |

i want to mute the scene
stop the clocks, turn them off and feel your silence shut their mouths, block my ears and i wanna hear of some way or down and out and all else is separation my watches when you heave for the last in a conscious moment i could live in uncertain regret here in the past my choose blanks memories and more you clearly made me think that i had something to live for buried in the dirt so I will dig and pull the fleet for once I believe and may you pray for me our worlds ran parallel an indefinite promise to meet divided and a colored frustration as i enter the vault you breach unsubsided hit firm |

Scaling the mountain, I have given up my pride
and I'm clinging to this rocky edge, a rose thorn in my side It's fabled contradiction, it's bitter sweet and blind And I'm balancing the mountain of compromise I went over the hill to be with you I went over the hill I am over the hill to be with you Am I holding on to lies or holding onto life? Standing in position objectivity goes by 'cause it's hard to ignore losing when you're winning all the time and the weight of this too heavy, the ceiling far too low This commitment is restraining and I can't grow I went over the hill, over the hill I am over the hill to be with you Am I holding on to life or holding onto lies? In retrospect in your absence my disposition's gone as I close my eyes to search for treasure in what I once lost I let go of the noose and breath again I am falling from the game and mending a foot (?) |

Truth and justice And I can't wait for we have to know the truth And what they say is justice What we see All lies, it's justice, a bullet in your fucking face And you believe in the system, believe this whole fraud, the media's lies, the evening you're loaded from within the day, what have you seen, the empty street, that thing, I can't propel it, probably I will, what is right, truth and justice? And I can't wait, where's the fucking truth? And what they say is justice What we see All lies, it's justice, what do you believe, the people always look away Their interest strapped to decay And the people always come on fast Knocked and stole neighbor's cash Fuck justice Justice (x2) Between a lie and your cardboard are your interests, you're to weak to strike, the fucked up incest, the woman in the other street liked them again, can we still burn up before our dying countrys Justice, justice, justice, justice |

I won't carry... it's a measure of bad dreams but I won't carry... I won't carry you

You won't find me condescending at your closed door you won't hear how I feel. say you've been there before the holiday's the hardest time to fill in all the blanks and you don't need anyone to show you those mistakes wrap yourself up in only math of our world fill up the holes in your full heart with details for all the riddles solved and every puzzle you complete can't seem to find the pieces to the heart that beats you'll master every task but always by the book then log it in your past with risk that you once took they left you then, they'll hurt you now can't get too close to you or you will cut them down and any fool can play I'll raise the stakes with another turn we risk, we roll and we burn at arms length you never get hit there's too much to gamble when you let someone in my true friend I'm spewing and only one more positive I just might spill some notable insight I didn't think before I purged so here I am attempting to unlock your closed door I wouldn't break it down 'cause you'd be gone for sure you might say something nice of me and send it in a card or under whiskey breath slur kind words at the bar and you're sinking me while you stay afloat in the tank you built we drop, we'll never learn

All the mirrors scream as they describe your dreams all that they deride until you have no allies they depict a world where we aren't safe without hate an angry mob of one author of the unstoppable will united we must kill here comes the faade they will inflate your God by default accomplice to their war but I know where I stand born into the geographic call but I won't elect to let my mind fall no dividers
