Here he is, he saves a grin
He wants to be the one who doesn't have to sink a level Indiscrete, in his retreat All he needs is just a taste of the bitter pride He held in her name Embrace the solitude in ordinary fucked up state of grace Far away from the days he bared the cross she used to wear In some resolve well aware A little pitiful, a pin up boy they dress in grieving wear Well at ease in consent in the drift of undertow He won't justify the pity from them When he knows....fools in love are arrogant Their sermons cloud his breathing air He's in love with an isolation from emotions Here he is awaiting sentence A fool to think that anyone can escape guilt and anguish A subtlety that can't be learned A subtlety that can't be taught He is caught in the lure of second thoughts He might still care As he settles down well aware Bound in secrecy. His voice will only dignify their But his sorrow is signified Well aware of his pride |

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 make you feel much better When you are an alien? Cause you will isolate, alienate No one can appreciate The poor miss understood Can you see that I don't care, I don't care, I don't care anymore? |

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 |

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 |

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 |

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?

the myriad of thoughtful acts A million ways I'm into you I'm never getting over you I'm sorry for exposing you I know you hate it when I do But I had to write one for my better half The days are new, the nights unwind You break my world, you change my mind Run out of love, come down from life Run out of pain, my life has changed It's obvious it's all been said in cheesy poems and chick flicks The mushy shit that people say, it makes us chuckle everyday So how can I express to you the recent dramas we've been through I wouldn't have been fine without your help The days are new, the nights unwind You touch my world, you change my life Run out of love, run out of life Come down from hate, the world has changed But we may never have met if it weren't for him Hey Derrick, maybe somehow you're listening Today's mantra is gratitude You changed my life I'm sure you knew I'll never forget the words that you said The life that you lead I'll never forget, I'll never forget |

things don't seem to be as easy as they used to be
it's getting harder everyday to think of better things to sayabout what's going on around you and what's happening inside youwhen it's time to change you won't know howit won't matter years from now no matter what you think or do or say everything turns grey this is it, the darkest hour isn't it depressing how our minds create an atmosphere that won't happen here unless we make some new demands to grasp the future in our hands you know i wish i could but it's too late for senseless minds that love to hate no matter what they think or do or say everything turns grey |

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 |

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? |

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 |

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 |

never knew what it is and there's no sign of it ending as i am it and ought to be they're telling me i am (chorus) bowling race car driver superficial hitman you're on the list at every door you don't bowl or race fast cars composition competition you drive just because i don't go to the church where you reside i might as well go for it the nineties won't be back again until i'm forty-eight years old i can be the hungry as i eat my words again appealing yet apalling rising to my falling going to extreme ends i am gagging on their scene (repeat chorus) you shift i'm the driver over time in it's defense i move their car and for a moment it makes sense i fail them in the end i fail it in the end in the arms of old age knowing only one to lose feeling nothing more to hide consider life a forgery as you're gagging on your scene admit to fraudulence driven to this thought death is certain faith is not (repeat chorus) composition competition you drive competition competition i'm losing i fail it in the end |

Nothign has broken
MR. Coffee has spoken The familiar wake-up call sings to my ears I wake up with a shrug To the floor with a thud Where in this hellhole is my coffee mug? I can now face the day on legal speed (The American way) I'm sketching I'm seizing I'm spazing I'm shaking I can not stop spilling on my brand new shirt I-I-I'm wored I'm so inspired I drank the entire pot so off to work Here I come to save the day on legal speed (The American way) Drinking coffee I drink coffee Drinking coffee everyday |

Crysti can't take all the pressure
Kevin hates the girls He dates Mia says she's gonna snap I need a new car to drive away Derek beats up all his girlfriends Jessie likes to comb his hair Hanacek is on the wagon I tried not to speak today Chorus: You slip and fall They pick you up and throw you down again I left them there and found them here I was rarely smart enough to dodge the careless words You find them everywhere It breaks you into two Emily had sex with Joey Chris is weird He must be gay Everyone is smoking H And I tried hard to laugh today Every word you hear you repeat Every word you repeat you change Here's a quarter There's a phone Why don't you call someone who cares Repeat chorus I left them there and found them here It breakes me into two |

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 |

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 |

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 |
