1.We're All Dead
We're all dead!
Excuses and shaking heads
can't put stop to it
constantly approaching nothing left
Our reflection, gods and guns;
hollow distractions
life begins when trust is placed in death
So every day's a brand new chance to
stop throwing our lives away
Idle disconnect won't carry us through
'cause it's steady progress or swift decay
The rest of time starts today
I've spent so many hours fighting
myself over how I'll die
So many sleepless nights denying
it's over when we close our eyes
I need to make the most of my time
it's over when we close our eyes
Every day we chase our dreams
until they become reality
Every day we feed our dreams
to give ourselves something to believe
So get up, it starts today
2.Where'd You Go, Psycho Boy
Follow the leader, cracking skulls and closing minds
stuck in the same rotation
Follow the leader, cracking skulls and closing minds
no sign of communication
Boys will be boys, but what's the cost of all those blind eyes
And foolish lines in a world where the thoughtless mind
Is always right, blurring boundaries is all I've ever known
Maybe alone isn't so alone
And the cycle repeats itself as they try to change how you see
yourself
Pressure's building so don't let the fucking valves all blow
Let them laugh the night away, fingers point at everyone someday
We all need to help create new ways of being man, new ways of
being a man
And we need to throw all aggression away, sympathize and
understand,
sympathize and understand
3.Rearranging Deck Chairs On The Titanic
Intravenous venom in the morning＊
Floor burst open - no warning
Pitch black in all directions
The greatest depression
Conspiracies secluded in twisted insides torn to shreds
Ripped by the hand of influence
The knifepoint concession
The greatest depression
I can't stop this freight train feeling
Rolling over me
From the dollar to the nose
From under tables to explode
From under tables to explode
This is a vicious takeover
Ceiling collapse - no warning
Can't get off this island
The greatest depression
Conspiracies secluded in twisted insides torn to shreds
Ripped by the hand of influence
The knifepoint concession
The greatest depression
Hiding in the wings
Pulling teeth like puppet strings
I can't stop this freight train feeling
I can't stop this feeling
I can't stop this freight train feeling
Rolling over me
Total collapse from the ceiling
Rolling over me
I can't stop this freight train feeling
Rolling over me
From the dollar to the nose
From under tables to explode
From under tables to explode
4.Glaring Teeth
Spinning out of control
like an animal glaring teeth
pounding fists stop the pound of her heartbeat
The deadly rhythm
no cry for help could ever stop him
it happens every fucking day
this happens every fucking day
I can't believe
the air we breathe
gives oxygen to him
Watching skin and bone come crashing down onto the knife
I know that I don't ever wanna know how it feels to take a life
5.Strange, Slow And Old
There is no use for damage control
when heroes become villains with counterfeit morals
Forget going out in style, substitute giving up on
everything that you stand for
forget going out in style
In New York on a Saturday
no one's working on a dream
just saving face for the character it seems
In New York on a Saturday
someone has diamonds in their eyes
baby, this town rips the bones from your spine
Fighting to keep the mask on his face
an actor nothing more chalks betrayal up to mistake
Baby this town rips the bones from your spine
we gotta get out while we're still alive
(In New York on a Saturday
someone has diamonds in their eyes)
6.We Don't Care If Yesterday Burns, Stoke Up The Fire
I've got to get out cause I've been stuck in a dream＊
Every day wasted away, walking in my sleep
My mouth runs marathons and I always say the same things
This tongue turns me in circles, spins words into strings
I know I'm more than passing points of interest
It's high time to move these mountains of my chest
My head runs roundabouts, but I see it clearly
Feeling lost in waiting lines won't get the best of me
Nights skies and exhaust serenades
Empty-eyed handgrenades
Sing me to sleep on the way home
Now it's no more yesterdays
No more aimless routes and highways
This is the soundtrack to going it alone
It's time to get out, to wake up from this dream
Don't waste away another day walking in my sleep
My mouth runs marathons, but I'll stop saying the same things
Feeling lost in waiting lines won't get the best of me
And I say
Here's to the silver lining, I
Take back this life, this life of mine
Night skies and exhaust serenades
Empty-eyed handgrenades
Sing me to sleep on the way home
Now it's no more yesterdays
No more aimless routes and highways
This is the soundtrack to going it alone
7.What We Have Here, Is A Failure To Communicate
California 1978
two men down letters piercing skin to intimidate
Sneaking weapons through the window
ignorance disguised as insult
shovels shit onto their names
The damage isn't fleeting
when hate rips into veins
these are people you're demeaning
No, I won't get over this one
troubled stains won't wash away
take this as appeal to reason
When those words fire out of mouths
the smell of venom on their breath
the bottom of the barrel's been found
bullets fueled by smoking hopelessness
Here's a screaming wake-up call
in-equal is a concept designed to make the sufferer small
Everyone was equal until we hunted human difference
now we're dragging bodies to the landfill
Triggers click, shatter monuments in heads
a cultural nosedive in intelligence
It's in the space between a nation's teeth
you don't have to listen carefully
it keeps going
Overlooked, hidden in undertones
passed on and handed off in simple jokes
it keeps growing
Don't underestimate the power of the things you say
it's been too many years and far too little change
8.Five Out Of Five Kids Who Kill Love Slayer
Heated words exchanged outside＊
Fight their way out as beasts collide
It's broken bones in the parking lot
From acts of fear and not from thought
This frame that used to be a refuge
Bears asylum for abuse
Knuckles, a forced replacement for
Hard-working minds and vocal chords
And as the temperatures rise
The crowd becomes a great divide
And when I look inside I find
Nothing you could do could bring me down to you
I will fight the good fight, and I'll fight it my own way
Broken bone parking lots, cut-outs, cheap shots
I will fight the good fight, and I'll fight it my own way
I refuse to join a side
Won't be a part of this decline
Knuckles are not replacement for
Hard-working minds and vocal chords
And as the temperatures rise
The crowd becomes a great divide
And when I look inside I find
I don't need bloodstains on my hands to make me feel like I'm a
man
Fuck brute force, hostility, head high I choose to keep my peace
I don't nee bloodstains on my hands
Nothing that you could do could bring me down to you
I will fight the good fight, and I'll fight it my own way
Broken bone parking lots, cut-outs, cheap shots
I will fight the good fight, and I'll fight it my own way
And I'll fight it my own way
9.Start Over Starting Over
Too many bad habits and problems
pushed aside instead of solved
raised hands say I could do better yeah
My bags are permanently unpacked
giving up means going back
raised hands say I could do better than this
I was completely fucked
head in way over enough
rock bottom was on its way up to swallow me whole
My world started to shake
always feeling like an earthquake
on the wrong side of the fault line, so
Reach up sweating cold
about to lose control
rock bottom was on its way up to swallow me whole
These photographs are old but the faded image holds
a boy who tried to take back what his life stole
Split apart and redefined
by how we change throughout our lives
cut in half to see inside
'cause how we live is how we die
How we endure will justify the history we leave behind
Raised hands say I will do better than this
10.This Is A Farewell Kiss, You Dog
I've waited too many years
and swallowed too much fear to let you off easy
The whole world agrees it's gonna take a little more than sorry
Pulling punchlines that never hit land
you failed everyone
It's hard to laugh off a total lack of responsibility
It's been building inside of me
enough contempt to flood the sky
Feel it explode from sea to shining sea
it feels so good to say goodbye
11.Between The Devil And The Deep Blue Sea
It's hard to look past getting by
the evening's breaking news always provides me with an excuse
Pavement scrapes the underside
options all set to run out
paper slips and receipts start to feel like ghost towns
Here come those empty feelings again
watching black turn into red
there was no restraint for this accident
the seat belts had already snapped
Headfirst through the glass
It's hard to look past getting by when black holes can't compete
with the sad-eyed way my empty pockets look up at me
Pavement scrapes the underside
I'm fighting off the burnout
my sense of self respect is all that's left in this ghost town
12.One Million Motors
It is miles upon miles for a traveling man
bittersweet smiles
reminders that you understand
But shaking nerves still come unwound in messages
stories of coming back around
These barren, hungry tires grip the earth
as where we are becomes where we were
When destination slams into location night after night
you know the taste of dirt
It is miles upon miles for a calling
closer to home with every word I sing
Anxiety and relief still contend in messages
stories of coming home to a best friend
Leaving feels a lot like falling
like a million motors running in my stomach
It kills me to say all these late night phone calls
are the most I can offer when the train pulls up
Leaving feels a lot like falling
like cyanide and cyclones
leaving feels a lot like falling
but I'm always on my way home
13.Curtain Calls
The final act sits writing death threats in the corner
line up for curtain calls or great leaps forward
Sedated homes in rows like graves for miles and miles
Are you living life or just getting by？
Counting lines and cracks in the pavement
will your last lines speak of glory or regret？
Do you chase dollar signs or good times？
Are you living life or just getting by
when you close your eyes and say goodnight for the last time
Will your last lines speak of glory or or regret？
This is your one chance and it's all you get
so make the best of it
Will you fall asleep while years just disappear
no memories, just frequencies ringing in your ears
Do you chase dollar signs or good times？
Settling down is an easy way to swallow giving up
settling down is an easy way to say 'I'm giving up'
14.Be Kind, Rewind
Life begins when trust is placed death
embrace and be empowered
avoid and sink to the bottom
constantly approaching nothing left
embrace and be empowerd
avoid and sink to the bottom
we could be animated or
forever caught in headlights
bodies are more than cases
for veing and vital signs
Attempts to climb walls of glass
in search of man-made answers
and synthetic solutions
don't add up when it matters
when the power goes out
and everybody sings your name
steady yourself for the darkness
as the faces start to fade
dont' waste your last breath
to ask for redemption
forgive yourself
and reinvent salvation.
