Life In General

Middlename

Emotion, is my middle name
I lay in bed and listen to the rain
Put happy thoughts in to my head
But I find instead the hurting words you said

Why won't you believe me
When I tell you the things that I see?
And I'll still see you tomorrow, at the show

It's been a long winded, long time
I wish I'd never met you
I wish I could forget you
And what you said
You're directing your complaints to me
I should walk away, I could easily
Never hear a word you say

I'm not your robot or your slave
I won't behave, I'm not your toy
Go on go bury me with self righteousness
I confess, I'm just a boy



My mom still cleans my room

I'm not always nice, not always mean
My room has never been seen clean
The way I feel is not always how I seem

The thoughts that form inside my brain
Don't always seem to entertain
'Cause when I tell my company
They think there's something wrong with me

You don't know me like you think you do
You don't understand me and it's true

I'm getting older day by day
Ain't got time to get to everything
Hold on tight, enjoy the ride
Life is short, so live it wisely

I'm not always sick, but often tired
Sometimes I'm having fun or wired
I don't have someone to call my own

I'm not full of all the answers
I guess that I'm an o.k. dancer
I just want to be left alone


Do your feet hurt

Can I call you sweetheart or even baby doll?
If I had your number, you'd be getting a phone call
Can I leave you a message on your machine?
Letting you know that you're the bomb
And you blew up on me

Are you anxious to see me
After your next class?
Do you care when I tell you
Step around that broken glass?

Can I see you after you get out of school?
I won't even mind if you treat me cruel
Take a ride on my Vespa, I'll take you home
I'll climb up to your window and read you a poem

I know that you believe in the one true God above
And that's why you're waiting
For your one and only love
Do your feet hurt? Did you fall from heaven?
'Cause you've been running through
My mind all day
My mind don't mind

I don't know what to say or do
I can't eat when I'm with you
Goodnight sweetheart I gotta go
And you won't come to my next show?


Sometimes you have to ask yourself

Never quite just knew how to get it through
The utilitarian sloganeerian minds
And its time to stand up and redefine the lines
right now

Compartmentalizing, isn't realizing
Because it's not affecting change in the real world
So get on with your life and get over mine
There's only one world and there's many different tastes

So enjoy, don't employ your state
Common goals, communicate to contemplate
The way things are and why
Don't pawn the status quo problems off on the other guy

Your a celebrity in your own world
Catch phrases only catching cobb webs
Spiritualized capital gain and wealth
Isn't the means to the end, isn't the end itself

Manifest individually
Manifest a sense of reality
Because it's non exclusive
Don't be so elusively blind
Things are never what they seem
You don't know what you'll find
Right now!



the wonder years

I don't understand what's going on in my life these days
Everything upside down turned around
Won't waste my life, no way
And I don't know why

I can't see clearly?
I can't think 'cause it's too early
So many doubts frequent my mind all the time

Our lives in general are one in the same,
But there's no variations
Our lives in general are on in the same
But there's no difference of opinion

In my younger years, I used to be so free
But I don't know what's happening to me
We all know by now that time's the enemy
It controls us, tells us where to be

Don't know, don't care
If you need me, I'll be right here


move to bremerton

When I meet a special girl
She always lives somewhere else in the world
I don't want to call her on the phone
I wanna talk to her when I'm at home

Move to Bremerton - we'll hang out
Move to Bremerton - cause you wanna
Move to Bremerton - will you be mine?
(Move to Bremerton til' the end of time)

I'll change the street signs you drive down
So you end up in my town
I'll re-draw the maps all one by one
So they all lead to Bremerton

Drop out of school and run away
Quit your job, you got a place to stay
Pack your bags and hitch a ride
Bremerton's a good place to reside

If you owned a brain and use it too
You gotta know that I'd have a crush on you
I'm a sucker for a level headed girl with a pretty smile
She gotz to have ideas, yeah, and she gotz to have style



new york to nowhere

Going nowhere fast, watching cars go past
Why won't the snow melt faster?
This trip is a disaster
16 hour drive, just played in some dive
New York to nowhere, we're never gonna get there

A million miles away from everyone I know
Stuck here night and day with 5 more days to go



andrea

Meeting you was just so unexpected
I guess I was scared of being rejected

Since you were so nice
I wouldn't think twice
I'd give it all away for one more day with you

If ever there was a girl to be engaged to
That amazing girl would have to be you

Before we hung out
Don't know how I lived without
Your beautiful face - like God's amazing grace

Andrea, I say your name and all I can do is
Think about the way you smiled
And kinda sorta held my hand
Went out for coffee in what must have been the smallest town in Kentucky

Andrea, we walked together
Down the dirt road by the bridge
That we sat by each other
Talked about a few things
You looked at me I looked at you
Before you know, it's time to go!



your problem my emergency

Get a clue, I'm not here for you
And I'm not like you

I'm not gonna do what you say is right
'Cause then I'll end up just like you
I'm gonna rebel, I'm gonna fight
This organized manipulation

Learn to think before you speak
And you just might make a point

I'm just an average guy, is that hard to accept?
I live a normal life I've got no regrets
Don't make me out to be something that I'm not
I never said I was anything, so don't expect me to be

Why is your problem always my emergency?
This is no court of law, you're all speculation
Sex masquerades as rock and roll
And manufactured music to save your soul
So go and do your homework
Demographics target marketing



chick magnet

Well he's a chick magnet, if ya know what I mean
The way the girlies just go to him
Well ya should've seen
the guy yeah, he's got style and it's plain to see
Smooth shoes and cool tattoos
Hair pomped as tight as can be

He ain't got a girlfriend
No one to sing this song to
He's gotta settle down
If he meets that special girl soon

He knows just what to do
When it comes to the girls
He writes them poetry
And he picks them flowers
He knows just what to say
When it comes to the ladies
Knows how to make a girl smile
How to drive a girl crazy



today is in my way

It breaks my heart it makes me sad
to think of all the times we had
You made me laugh and you make me cry
And all that I can do is sigh, and wonder why
How will I get through tomorrow
If I can't make it through today?
How will I get through tomorrow,
when today is in my way?
Today is in my way
What's done is done and in the past
good things come and go so fast
You looked up at me and said goodbye
All that I could do was sigh and wonder why
I deserve all that I get
serves me right I will admit
and today just won't go away



sorry so sorry

I should have stayed in bed today
I couldn't think of a positive thing to say
My friends all hate me now
I was selfish and realize now
I have it a little time
I thought about it a while
ask to forgive and forget
Crack a joke and a smile
It's hard to say you're sorry
when you know that you were wrong
The weight of hurting words
We often carry on
The annoying things I don't mind so much anymore
I've learned to tolerate the annoying four
I won't let the sun go down
when I've made a mistake
I'd make right what I've wronged
and give more that I take



doing time

I remember times I had
some were happy, some were sad
memories me and my partners in crime
throwing up a thousand times
I got through it, I feel fine
I went to school and did my time
In a sense I'm out, in a sense I'm free
to be what I wanna be
Fun was cartoons Saturdays
Fun was staying up past eight
lame was tring to fit in
lame was the wrong crowd let me it
YOu gotta stick together
with who you are and who you know
You gotta remember
Where you've been and where you wanna go
I never did homework after school
did all the things I thought were cool
went out every Friday night
I still do and I'm alright.



Did you forget what's important in you life?
Somewhat confused, everthing is going wrong
Do you regret the decisions that you've made?
I don't expect a second chance to come along
You already found the book
with all the answers to all your questions
so take a closer look
You're in the turn land and I'm the intersection
Did you forget when you wakled out of my room
to turn off the light and say goodnight
your answer's coming soon
I will admit in the end I'll be O.K.
I think it safe to say, you don't know
If we're better off this way
Please don't forget how to laugh out loud
And be proud of yourself
I know you'll do what's right for you



cristalena

Cristalena, ya she's so cool
Crsitalena, she's out of control
Half the time she don't know where she's at
Cristalena don't know much about that
But you know, and I know Cristalena
But you know, and I know where I've seen her
Cristalena, she's in her own world
she's always happy as a littly girl
Cristalen's nice unless she's annoyed
Cristalena happens to like boys - but not me
Cristalena, where'd you go?
Don't even know where you've been
Cristalena, won't you stay?
Please don't go away, won't you be my friend?



destroyed by you

Can someone tell me why I'm feeling this way?
Can someone tell me why this world is so grey?
It's never just black and white
So much went on tonight
was I wrong or was I right?
You think the whole world revolves around around your head
You are ignoring me, you haven't heard a word I've just said
Why can't I just pull myself together?
What's done is done, never say never
Always look for good in the bad
learn from the mistakes that I have had
I re and re-learn
to let it go
talk is easy
but it's so hard to show

Southbound

It's all the same
same old town witha different name
That's fine by me
there's only one place that I wanna be
Southbound on I-5
and windows down and music on the stereo
I'm drivin' and I'm dreamin'
there's no place I'd rather go
Staring at white lines on the side of the road
(Playing every night with the occasional fight)
Been on the road awhile
I gotto get back to a place with style
Hang out, havin' fun
I gotta get back to the beach in the sun



Teenage Politics

Sugarcoated poisned apple

it eats at you i know, but it's so hard to let it go
let yourself go yah just let yourself go
it consumes you can't you see that sin hates everybody
everybody, sin hates everybody
even though i know the reasons why, it breaks me down i want to cry
i search for comfort in a friend, when will my troubles ever end?
the sugarcoated poisoned apple
tastes so good that you can't see
the death and decay that's inside
and what it's done to me
the sugarcoated poisoned apple
tastes do good how could you know
its deciteful lies
and where you're gonna go



Do & don't

i still don't know what i want to do
i'd probably still ask you if i knew
what i'm doing now seems to be okay
if it's your will if it's your way
don't want to have to deal with pointless bureaucracy
making sure where something goes or making sure that your agree
well i don't even know what my choices are
should i fly a plane, or should i drive a car?
nothing's clear to me, my eyes won't do a thing for me
i'll just wait right here, until i am what i will be
whatever it is i'm sure ill know, when the time comes he will show
me what to do, and me where to go
all i've got is a skateboard and a guitar
i go to a lot of punk shows a i drive a car
i don't like to work and i don't like to go to school
the teachers think that i'm a girl and the kids they think that i'm uncool
i'm just not interested in much of anything
wouldn't want to be a president, don't want to be a king
i just want to ride my skateboard just want to play my bass
every now and then strum a chord, sometimes land right on my face
have you any ideas? i can't tell by a chart
i wanna do what he wants me to, i'm gonna do my part-yah!



Teenage politics

no i'm not mad but i think they forget
what it's like and how hard it is to be a teenager
this is a new day and age, we read a different book
where elvis ain't the rage and polyester ain't the look
and will we change at all when we get old?
or will we be the same? never do what were told
well that depends on you, are you doing the right thing?
it's not about control, it's about you and me and understanding
teenage politics it's too confusing
politics shmolitics it's too confusing
is it time again to disagree
about anything, everything and what's on tv
it's a vicious circle, never ending
a linear equation worldy extending
no ill never be like you ill never ever be like you
oh no! i'm just like you!



Punk rawk show

we ain't go no place to go
so let's go to the punk rock show
darling take me by the hand
we're gonna see a punk rawk band
there's no use in tv shows
radio or rodeos
i wanna get into the crowd
i wanna hear it played real loud
ain't go no money to pay
we'll get in anyway doesn't matter i don't care
it's fell good so we should share
we're going to the punk rawk show! oooohh!! ooohh!!



The opposite of intellect

it seems so hard to get away from last week and yesterday
i have to sit right here and watch it all go by
is this really happening? maybe this is just a dream
when i wake up ill be someone else
i don't want to grow up, not just yet
i don't wanna have to see your false sence of reality
i don't wanna grow up, not just yet
i don't wanna have to know how to play in your game show
just don't ask me if you're getting thru to me
just don't tell me the way that you want me to be
you say ill fit nicely in society
you only took a superficial look at me
why can't i say i'm sick of you? is it wrong to say what's true?
i'm skeptical about your point of view
teaching us not to reflect, the opposite of intellect
don't resist authority and you'll be fine
you don't want me to speak my mind.



T/false fiction

they guarantee our freedom but freedom isn't real
unless you know Christ you won't know how i feel
inflections of the way things were supposed to be
the mental disorder of our society
false finite ways of thinking
false fiction they're believing
entropy is still promoting chaos
it's chaos, it's your loss
maybe this world has stopped thinking
maybe all their minds are shrinking
your failed system is inducing chaos
it's chaos, it's your loss
building, moving forward never looking back
taking what the world has offered, but you forgot the pack
common sense,logic,science, a humble self esteem
live to die and die to gain, abort the selfish scene



Falling down

you're only interested when our power's threatened
you're only paranoid cause you know what you're doing
you know what you've done and what you're about to do
the conspiracy to your inconsistency
could it be your spirit's dead?
why do you run away when faced with these questions?
i know you know it
but you just won't say you built this conformist system
you built this state and now you're falling down
your education teaches us not to resist
subjects don't question kings
it disrespect, they slam you in the face with their fist
you'll do anything to keep from falling down!



Money tree

4 more years ain't right for me, i don't think so
won't let them teach me how to be a money tree
that's what you are
that's all you'll ever be
a money tree
they've got you planted in the ground, you don't know it
they make you put your money down & they take it
never want to be your money tree



Rainy day

they just point the finger they don't care
they don't think i know you think
where did i go wrong? what did i do?
where did i conflict with you?
you can't tell me that you care
when you're never ever there
i don't ask a lot from you
but you've got better things to do
i thought i knew you i don't know
do you just want me to go? cause i'll go
actions over words to you i'm nothing
you seem so far away where are you today?
don't just leave me in a box
then walk away
don't just put me in a box
for a rainy day
for a rainy day...



Like sand thru the hourglass...

so are the days of out lives"
it seems like every time i get something going
it falls apart right in my hands
it seems like every time i get it figured out and
i have no doubt, that's when i'm farthest from the truth
my world is breaking down around me
i see my destroyed world in front of me
any and every thing i trusted
i weep for my world disgusted
i always learn the hard way, there ain't an easy way to learn
that's what i've learned
was i tought the right things tought the right?
i don't know and that is all i know



Democracy

believing the lies defines american
they don't realize their ignorance and sin
democracy ain't real it's a fairytale
anarchy now then spend the night in jail
i won't pretend that it ain't wrong
i won't just go along
humanity is deseased
and the sickness has increased
for the people by the people
who's considered people anyway?
the rich get richer and the poor get poorer
so much for equal opportunity!



Something more

i've lost all words to say, driving everyone away
am i really all that bad, or am i going mad?
i'm a face from yesterday, always in the way
hiding all my pain, it's driving me insane
if you fell this way, each and everyday
there's got to be something more
you want your like to change, something's got change
so live for something more
no one ever calls, you're sick of it all
your friends don't come around, they all let you down
what's gotten into you? there's nothing you can do
to make it all seem right, so why put up a fight?



Different things

she's been told so many differnt things
she just don't know what she believes
it all makes sense at the time
but don't forget that we are blind
when the obvious is real
she still ignores the way she feels
you can run jump sit or stand around
but not for long unless you've found
Jesus Christ,God,Son and Sacrifice
believe in him, he'll open up your eyes.



Misunderstanding

been told once, been told twice
he just won't listen to advice
it's in God's book but he don't wanna look
his friends say it's so uncool
you're better off without those rules
your life's your own, you live it alone
he can't ignore his misunderstanding leaves him sore
he can't explain why his life is full of so much pain
he parents pushed it on him
he wasn't ever really interested
now he's old enough to make up his own mind
he was only going thru the motion
now he's drawing in the ocean
of these hateful times & he believes he's right


Study humans

everyday i go to school and study humans
i sit and watch them all go by
everyday's a new day to study humans
i sit and ovserve this girl named bri with my eye
all those mannerisms and the funny things the do
humans and their dogmas the defend so selfisly
i'm planning to take over cause i hate living on the moon
they won't get suspicious cause the soaps are on at noon


Inquiring minds want to know

how you fell depends on what you think about
what you need depends on what you can't live without
how you act goes right back to the way you feel
what you see isn't always what is real
so where do we go? and what do we do?
you're asking me and i'm asking you
to be real with yourself and don't play the game
of daily life, it's all the same
the way you think depends on what you're going thru
what you create comes from deep inside of you
what you know makes the difference in what you hate
what you love depends on how you relate
inquiring minds want to know.


i'm the bad guy legalistic people suck legalism makes me sick
i wonder what makes them tick? i wanna go puke on it
ephesians verse 2:8 states God has saved us not by works but by grace
so what's it gonna take? there's no getting thru to you
so what's it gonna take?
there's no getting thru to you
i'm way to young
to have a point of view
this whole thing just bums me out, Jesus knows my heart
but you don't care you've already made up you mind
i try to change my attitude but it's really hard
i'm so sick of you, God is gonna pull thru



Americanism

have they got what they wanted?
cause they've taken everything
was it for the money?
or is political power to blame?
would you die for your country?
false freedom and liberty
they're lying when they tell us
this is the home of brave and land of the free
why aren't we against them?
cause we know that they are wrong
we're the biggest faction
and they've had control too long
americanism, nationalism, bow to the flagism!
militaristic, egotistic, high class and capitolistic!



Delores

My girl hates the IRA
it's true she just a Fantasy
Don't know her she don't know me
We'd make the perfect memory
Nothing in this world could be better
than falling in love with her
she'd write me the most beautiful of songs


1, 2, 3, Go! Go! Go! Go!


Pokinatcha

Anywhere but here

it seems like life would be better some other
way some other day, life is what you make it
that's what some say just go away, i don't want to
hear it i'm confused i'm not amused, right now
i'm incoherent i'm not on my own still i'm alone,

i should have seen it coming i didn't want to see
i can see us breaking permanently!
I guess it's out of my hands that's exactly what i hate

there's one thing left to turn to it's not a girl and it's not the world,
when everyone has their own thing
he's into you and he loves you too. he's
what keeps me going when i'm afraid any my beds not made.
Still I haven't forgotten that they're over there and
i'm right here. i might not always be here.

Think Twice

it tears me apart inside i know
think twice it tears me apart inside i know
i do it too you can run but you can't hide
deep down i find you so it seems it's no big deal
we don't think about it much a pain created a
pain that's real i've got the scars to prove it
when we tear each other down what's our
intentions? it's always more that just a joke
so let's try to think twice-so think twice! it's
true we are a brotherhood and we all know it
bonded by the son of God is how we live-so think twice!

fell that i need to cry it
hurts me even more to
think how it was before
no you first is how it
always went the simple
things made us content
we don't need nothin'`
except and the one true
God that keeps us
together i hate time!
cause time brings
change! and change
makes me start all over
again i guess i can work
with time but does time work out

jars of clay

a promise from a
cardboard box so
commonly thrown on
the street how easily we
break apart but we never
seem to stay that
way there's something
inside those jars
of clay!(2cor.4:16)
outwardly we're wasting
away inside we're
renewed day by day it's
always him it's never me
he is truth why can't you
see? there's something
inside those jars of clay.

analogies of what a
happy life looks like and

look up to you'll never
be like them no matter
how hard you try it's all
superficial a deceptive lie

another song about tv

another song about tv
how much tv sucks
washes your brain of
intelligence you sit
around all night and day
was life really ment to
be thin way? tv sucks!
watching your life go
down the tube and you
wonder why every day's
a re-run nothing
different happens
nothing new your life's a
show and the show is
over tv sucks! a waste of
time of a created mind
star trek's been airing far
to long can you sleep at
night without sight and
sound what ever
happened to reality? tv

twisted words

have you ever noticed
how people twist the
words that you have said
to them funny how these
things occur taking it
literally all the thins

in to deep in the
meaning of what they've
read twisted words
causes ignominy twisted
words changes what
things used to be it
happens every day

just can't come to see
why they aren't sick of it
all on and on they twist
the things tell me will i
end words will change all
the same with the

mistake to let this go to

coming outside and it
just won't let me go why
does it matter where
you've been because i
cAre for you my friend i
can't read into you mind

jay jay's song

i am myself and no
one else because my eyes
see so much negativity
pressuring me every day
thy judge me as
something i'm not
there's so many lies in
this world today fears
and doubts run thru my
mind i've gone thru this
a million times i read his
word look to his face
but i could never earn
his grace it's not right to
sit at home we're the
church of today not

one way window

there's barriers in my
mind that i think about
all the time and i know
there's no way past them
i can never get away
from the things that
people say well i guess
that's just part of it all
my one way window
where i can't hide my
one way window where i
can't see the other side

dead end

choose a direction which
way you gonna go? you
chose rejection because
you didn't know what he
can do for you what he
has done for me
the purpose we've been
waiting for the purpose
that we want to see why
won't you see the signs
there's a dead end
between the lines it
looks impressive now
just wait cause you will
see all those things let
you down including you
and me there's more
than meets the eye so
much more to know
learn to think more
clearly and i know that
you'll start to grow


Slowly Going the Way of the Buffalo

Under Lock And Key



There's something crazy, something strange about
The way I'm lazy and how I go about
Giving my time and how I reason
Do all my problems have to do with how I reason?
Don't feel bad if you haven't figured out
Cause I'm not mad there's really no need to shout
There's really no way you could have estimated
That you would ever in your life be so frustrated

If you knew what was good for you
You'd lock me up and throw away the key
You don't need me and no you never will
You never did as far as I can tell

Should I wake up and explain myself to you
Or should I not care and sleep the whole day thru
Finding the sense in everything
Is like going thru my head to find a diamond ring.
Living day by day is all that I can say
Something someone to believe in might be the
other way
We can't know for sure until we open the door
Inherent choices, choices I can't take anymore

Tomorrow's Another Day



I don't want to let my life fly by
Do you ever stop, stop to wonder why?

And time flies by
When everything is ok
It just turns out that life ain't that way
Big decisions overwhelm me and I know
nothing's free

When I don't think of, think about much
People die and we don't know why
I could use some understanding
Human contact, sign that contract

I don't want to let my life fly by
Did you ever stop to wonder why-ever stop to
wonder, wonder why?

And time stands still when no one understands you
When you don't quite understand yourself
But just know this that God is faithful
Even if you don't have faith yourself

There's nothing quite like being sure of
What's inside your heart
It's mostly simple but not so easy
To know just where to start

Today didn't have to be this way
Tomorrow is another day
Another chance to make things right
A chance to make sense of last night

A chance to fully live your life
I don't want to, I don't want to, you don't want to

The Final Slowdance



You're taking all the space up in my head
With all the things that we could do and
All the things that could be said
It's hard for me to understand
The way I feel about you and the way it
Made me feel to hold your hand

Am I running out of time or am I at the
starting line?
I know I missed the mark yet I just need some
sort of sign

My words don't come out easily
So I will tell you honestly
No one wants to spend
Eternity alone....

I'm OK, You're OK



What's going on tonight? Is everything alright?
I hope that nothing's wrong. I haven't seen you
in so long.

I'm away, you're here to stay and I'm away and
you're ok
You're here to stay and I'm away, you're here to
stay and I'm ok

What exactly do you do, when I'm not with you?
What exactly do you say, all the time that I'm away?

You tell me nothing's wrong
Seems like I've been gone oh so long
Nothing seems to have changed
Yet the familiar things seem all so strange

Cold and Alone



I know I'm mean but I'm real sorry
I didn't mean to make you cry
I feel so bad by then it's too late
You're hurt, I'm mad, is this goodbye?

I've dug down far too deep now
I've dug down far I'm losing sleep

You know it's hard you know I'm trying
To understand to do what's right
I don't like to see you crying
I don't like it when we fight

I've dug down far too deep now
I've dug down deep I'm losing

Cold and all alone
Out there on your own
Cold and all alone
Living on your own

Party my house, be there



It's about time for a party at my house
And it wouldn't be the same without you
No not at all as I recall
You've got what I need

Bring along yourself and don't forget that smile
And plan on staying a while
Till summer turns to fall, as I recall
You've got what I need

You said you were leaving
I said you were crazy
You said that you have some things to do

I'll see you in a while
And don't forget that smile
What else could there possibly be to do?

The Downfall Of Western Civilization



What do you call yourself?
What did you call me?

Excuse me but you don't know me
And I sure don't know you neither

Who are you and where did you go?
You think you know but you, just don't know

Invitation To Understanding



Come on understanding visit me for once today
I'll be grateful, you don't even have to stay
It must be hard for you to get over to my
side of town
I know there's many people like me to be found

If you come knockin' at my door
And I am not around
Foolishness came by and we're downtown
Please don't leave
Please come on in and make yourself at home
I know you're probably used to being alone

Everyone keeps telling me you're something that
you're not
But I know if I met you I'd like you a lot
What exactly does it take to bring you to my door
By the time that you arrive I won't live here no more

What can I do? There's no one here but me
And nothin' on tv
Where could you be? I really wouldn't know
Where else you might go

FIST VS TACT


I've dwelt long on the past and I just can't
take it anymore
I struggle in vain at last, I've managed to board
Up the windows and lock the door

Persist to resist, fight back
Not with a fist, with tact
Ideas in action, with passion
Passion commitment, dedication

When all is said and done, our time is spent
And we've had our fun
Have you taken the time to think about your life
And what it means to know eternity

I've dwelt long on the past and I just can't
take it anymore
I struggle in vain at last, I've managed to board
Up the windows and lock the door

WHAT'S MINE IS YOURS


As soon as I figured out that you wouldn't be there
As soon as I figured out that you didn't care
I try to do what's right, I try to keep an open mind
I try to do what's right, but your so unkind

You don't own me
They've abolished slavery
And I can't wait for the day when things
turn around
You don't own me,
They've abolished slavery
There's conciseness for your actions
I know cause I'm paying for mine now

The piece of paper you have says that you
can get into my pocket
But you can't get inside my heart or my mind or
my head
Money doesn't mean to me what it obviously
means to you
Cause I would never steal from kids that dont
have a clue

SELF SERVING WITH A PURPOSE


Next time my heart breaks in cold rage
I'll be on your page
Waves of misunderstanding crashing
Demanding passage through

Dont tell me I've changed
Dont tell me I've changed

You've got your rights
Dont mean its right, ethical or sane
I'm not your type your beholding me
Dont remind, regret

Still "Desperate is as desperate does"
Self served purpose, grasping straws
Ugly hate and ill breed heart
Misunderstanding from the start

FOR ALWAYS


If we help each other out along the way
Then maybe everything will be OK
Who decides if you'll succeed?
Who decides those things you want and need?

Looking back on all those years
All the smiles and all the tears
i never want those memories to fade
What we have done what can we do
We search our whole life for the truth
For always and always and always

I know sometimes well disagree
But no one here can absolutely see
Were just learning as we go
There's nothing in this world we just dont know

Honestly not interested

SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT


Did we ever have an understanding?
Did we ever have anything at all?
Not that i recall
You were never really there for us but then
We were never really there for you
Its true, the rest is up to you
You say its wrong, its right
You say we wont, we might
We thought about it twice tonight
And if we dont seem to Broken hearted
That because were glad we've parted
I think we've had enough for two

Well I believe in second chances
I believe the world is gonna end
But I would do anything to set the record straight

If you would believe

Will someone think about the heartbreak?
Will someone realize there has been a mistake?
No one really cares enough to listen
No one really cares enough to listen
Just believe the lies

GET WITH IT!


Kid quit it, get with it
Kid quit it, get with it
You're getting on my nerves
Is that what I deserve

I know I can't play guitar
So kill me quickly
And I'll be glad I'm gone

You wouldn't be so cool
If your friends ran off without you
And left you with your pants down

You're nothing but a lonely clown
With out a circus
A sheep that's lost the flock
Your nothing but a lonely clown
With out a circus
We're just here to rock

INCHES FROM LIFE


There's something wrong inside of us
It's important to discuss
A narrow mind a hardened heart
And this is just the very start

Frustration gets the best of me
So I dont speak coherently
We are are taught to go along
We need to figure out it might be wrong

You oughta know you can be inches from life
And never live at all
You oughta know that our pride is our downfall
There's no need to stand up tall

No one knows what's going on
Even those who cause oppression
Most of which dont realize
Uneasy smiles and blackened eyes

Could it be there's something real
Not always known but you can feel
The presence of an absolute
That our lives cant substutute
