Can't Take It Away
i'm as passive as i can be i'm so blind i can't
see why people take advantage of me squeeze me dry of all i've got drained
of life, i slowly rot just because i care a lot take my money, take my
time take whatever i call mine never greedy always fucking kind now i'm
empty do you care doesn't matter i'm always there to let you strip me fucking
bare can't take it away from me (3x) can't take my pride all i know is
all i've got but i know i have a lot time for this to fucking stop playing
games with my head suppressed anger burning red it's better off.
that i have something said blank stares and blatant lies half truths and
alabis pull the shades over my eyes now i'm wise to your game and i see
it's all the same one again myself to blame.
Falling
Help me, somebody help me because i am falling
down again help me, somebody help me because i know how these stories end
i've doen all i can to do what's right i've done all i can and fought a
good fight but still i find myself.... falling, falling down again paralyzed
with fear as i descend.
See Through You
I question the sincerity of this so called community
are you here because you want to be or just for popularity just the other
day you told me you'd be there how come then i couldn't find you anywhere
good intentions falling short of empty promises for support a scene just
simply cannot be unless there is true unity wear the colors, fly the flags
they might as well be shredded rags when all is summarized in the end you're
just here to impress your friends i can see right through you i can see
the difference in what you say and do you only want what you already know
then you wonder why there's so few shows just the other day you told me
you'd be there how come then i couldn't find you anywhere "support the
scene" & "make the shows" is what you say i guess you had better things
to do that day.
Enjoy The Show
Don't even know why or what you hate false negativity
i know i can't relate clench your fists in anger at those who will oppose
your hate is just a label an image that you chose open your mind and you
will see you don't prove a fucking thing to me repeat first verse we're
just here to enjoy the show break down the walls of hatred do us all a
favor and let it go.
...Just The Beginning
so many people (3x) have no clue there is no sincerity
(3x) in what they do do you love music or financial gain? take pride
in creation or searching for fame? if you want to get ahead, you'll
just play the game your objective is pompous and lame is it expression
or just to get laid? is it your life or just to get paid? we don't
need to live by the choices you've made we'll do it our way, because we're
not afraid.
I'm Still Here
Once it was something so strong now just a joke
you disappeared in an instant, a puff of smoke what you stand for today
means nothing tomorrow better things to do new people to follow how can
you turn into someone you would have made fun of? what happened to
caring, what happened to love? what happened to your strength and
pride? behind your excuses you cannot hide complain to me about your
lack of old friends but now it's you who moved on in the end i'm still
here - just waiting for you i'm still here - no matter what you do i'm
still here - come back to what's true i'm still here (3x) for you.
Epilogue
You cause a lot of pain the day that you left town
ignited gasoline and burned the bridges down i guess you had no plans of
ever coming home i wish you the best of luck wherever you may roam because
there is no turning back the bridge is no longer there no way in for when
you're down and no way out if i should care the cliffs are steep and rugged
1,000 miles tall and hungry sharks swim down below if you should slip and
fall it does not matter who was wrong what does not kill me makes me strong
i listened to the words you said the one that i once loved is dead i'm
not sitting by the phone i'm not dying here alone keep on going your merry
way and listen close, you'll hear me say i don't want you i don't need
you -anymore- trust is hard to come by and loyalty hard to find and no
ones ever gotten what they need by being kind there is nothing left for
us to do but never give up hope that someone has the skills to cross this
tightened rope.
Shit's Creek (The Crumbsuckers cover song)
Life's going fine till its time to pay then nobody
cares about what you say borrowing all the time, now you're in debt.
money's fun to spend... you bet. my arms are short and my pockets
deep and all the money that i have i want to keep. i'll be making
my payments over time. that was long ago now the lender whines moving
down the river of life make your payments, grab a wife then you try to
float upstream its much harder then it seems finally you make your goal
with no morals and no soul. had to sell them on the way, so that
you could live today you're up shits creek, installments due last week
your bank book is looking bleak because you're up shits creek traveling
without a paddle for so long it doesn't matter now you're in a new tax
bracket don't forget your life jacket and if you hit some waves that's
all right the money saves but if your cash flow stops will your life crumble
and drop now your debts are paid and you can relax got shit in your ears,
or is it wax i thought i saw your boat capsize bobbing in the creek getting
shit in your eyes.
