Treason 02:59
I'll start it, regarded, as the initiator Rejected, deflect it, got set off by a word Heat rising, chastising, I think its blood that I taste Surmising, comprising, of everything I've faced Nowhere to go, but up from here! You know I need the war, my conflict isn't tired I don't know what it's for, but now I feel inspired I send words to the line, attacking for no reason Flanking on either side, cause I commit the treason Blindsided, reminded, I did not choose the way Reacted, redact it, most everything I say I failed to, regale you, the way I should have done No movement, improvement, I’m not the only one Nowhere to go, but up from here! You know I need the war, my conflict isn't tired I don't know what it's for, but now I feel inspired I send words to the line, attacking for no reason Flanking on either side, cause... I never win the argument Served a term but I never meant All the hurt and disrespect Or the weak ass compliment (repeat all) You know I need the war, my conflict isn't tired I don't know what it's for, but now I feel inspired I send words to the line, attacking for no reason Flanking on either side, cause I commit the.... You know I need the war, my conflict isn't tired I don't know what it's for, but now I feel inspired I send words to the line, attacking for no reason Flanking on either side, cause I...

Failure 04:01
1, 2, 3, Go! Inadequate, even if they like me Think I'll never fit, like ‘em I could never be Never fail to fail at everything I try Got me wondering if there is a why Do I stand here with my stupid song? Hoping everyone'll maybe sing along But there's a certain bit that plays in my mind And it's the same voice, every time You can't do this Cause I'm a failure, in my head But I never, wanna be led Down a path that, I didn't choose Even if that, means I lose, means I lose I can blame whatever that I want to That's another thing I think I already do Is it me responsible at all? For the feeling of crashing in the wall? Maybe it's something I got from my father I gotta wonder why he never even bothered To give me a swift kick in the ass The only lesson heard from his class, was You can't do this Now I'm a failure, in my head But I never, wanna be led Down a path that, I didn't choose Even if that, means I lose, means I lose, means I lose Maybe my father didn't learn from his father But he was always nicer to my little brother Now I'm a failure, in my head, but I never, wanna be... Now I'm a failure, in my head But I never, wanna be led Down a path that, I didn't choose Even if that, means I lose, means I lose, means I lose I’m a failure! Am I a failure?! I’m a failure! Am I a failure?!

I don’t have to use my blinker I don’t have to let you know I’m about to turn Some other, direction The way I drive, is cause for concern I spin my tires in the parking lot Just because, I like to smell ‘em burn But on the endless commute to your job If you follow me, you’ll be late for work I hate traffic more than you do I don’t believe, in zipper lanes I just wanna get where I’m going Get out of my way I take two spots at Costco The ones right up, by the front door But don’t worry, there’s more I can do To piss you off, just a little bit more Like when I walk out with my groceries And I stroll down the middle of the road As I hold up, all the traffic The look on your face, is solid gold I hate traffic more than you do I don’t believe, in zipper lanes I just wanna get where I’m going Get out of my way Out of my way Sometime today What do you say? And the last thing that I’ll mention This is the last, thing I’ll say Don’t pace the car to the right of you When you’re driving, in the fast lane

Sedition 02:58
Go! I know I instigate Don't have minute to contemplate Gotta burn it down Too much on the plate It’s not a thing you can delegate Burn it to the ground I'm fully aware (gonna go, gonna go down) What I declare (gonna go, gonna go down) Said it wasn't right (gonna go, gonna go down) It's, time, to fight Conviction / Conscription Join us in this phase Rendition / Sedition Not just a phrase Yeah, we'll support the cause Gonna keep answering all the calls We'll lead the way Tearing down the walls Keep on pushing until it falls Gotta make them pay I'm fully aware (gonna go, gonna go down) What I declare (gonna go, gonna go down) Said this wasn't right (gonna go, gonna go down) Said, it's time, to fight It's time to stand up It’s time to do what's right Go on, put your hands up If you're ready to fight Why you always gotta be doing what you're told? (Repeat X3) Why you always gotta be......Go!

Oblivion 03:16
Tuesday was pretty alright The sky was clear, the clouds were near But they kept themselves away My nose was clean, since 23 Made it through another day With a broken lace, and a broken face A head, that wasn’t right Man, I was trying hard not to fade Into oblivion, let’s burn the sun Delirium, don’t know why I feel so numb Oblivion, the only one Not having fun, where’s this feeling coming from Made it to another night Walking down the street, take a look a see The writing on the wall Who put it there, does anybody care? Do we ever listen at all? To the ones before, who we all adore Who were trying to set things right Man, I’m trying hard not to fade Into oblivion, let’s burn the sun Delirium, don’t know why I feel so numb Oblivion, the only one Not having fun, where’s this feeling coming from Made it to another daylight With a mind that’s clear, living out a fear That I fight to keep at bay Sun is in my eyes, making me blind Let it take the sight away Of the ugly face, of this ugly place That we call life Man, there’s no way I will fade Into oblivion, let’s burn the sun Delirium, don’t know why I feel so numb Oblivion, the only one Not having fun, where’s this feeling coming from

Negative Nancy She’ll keep ya guessing Don’t even waste your time Feeling sorry for her She started her own war Steps on her own landmine She’ll find the wrong, in every right She’ll find the darkness, in every light She will always be the one who brings you Down, down, down When she’s around Her joy is truant Blue and indignant Even good times bring the hurt Kind ain’t her talent Nor is self-improvement For a girl she’s a fucking jerk She’ll find the wrong, in every right She’ll find the darkness, in every light She will always be the one who brings you Down, down, down…. down When she’s around (X4)

So Perfect 03:14
Don’t wanna keep changing the channel Don’t wanna keep up with the cattle Don’t wanna keep my old point of view….of you Keep chasing that next tomorrow Keep chasing the time I borrow Keep chasing another busted tooth….from you Cause you don’t like what I have to say You don’t like my full ash tray You don’t like my kind of truth….do you? There’s a ton of things I don’t understand A ton of things that I should have planned There’s a ton of shit that I’ve been through….but so have you How do you do It all so perfect and go unchecked By all the things that continue to get in my way I will never be somebody like you I will never be good enough to Stand tall and plant my flag on the world….unfurled But I wanna see you standing there Wanna see you with purple hair Wanna see your fist up in the air! How do you do It all so perfect and go unchecked By all the things that continue to get in my way I know I’ll lose (I know I’ll lose) Cause how I choose (cause how I choose) At least I’ll never be you

Let It Ride 03:32
Hey man, mind your level, you gotta go to work today It’s four in the morning, you’ll sober up on the way And while we are at it, we gotta talk about last night And your tired habit of always picking a fight And I scream out to my gang, HEY, HEY, HEY! Are we gonna make it? And I scream out to my gang, HEY, HEY, HEY! Make it til we fake it When patience is getting tried And we trip along our stride And I scream out to my gang, HEY, HEY, HEY! Let’s let it ride, let it ride Hey man, where you going? That’s your neighbor’s door And as a matter of fact, this ain’t even your floor And now you’ve lost your keys, maybe they’re at the bar Let’s check one more time, they might be in the car And I scream out to my gang, HEY, HEY, HEY! Are we gonna make it? And I scream out to my gang, HEY, HEY, HEY! Make it til we fake it When patience is getting tried And we trip along our stride And I scream out to my gang, HEY, HEY, HEY! Let’s let it ride, let it ride Hey man, mind your level, we still have a show to play We gotta finish the set, or lose out on the pay Just stay off the mic, and keep to your own side Get the crowd bouncing around, and keep the band in time And I scream out to my gang, HEY, HEY, HEY! Are we gonna make it? And I scream out to my gang, HEY, HEY, HEY! Make it til we fake it When patience is getting tried And we trip along our stride And I scream out to my gang, HEY, HEY, HEY! Let’s let it ride

No More 02:49
Don’t know if I, can live another day As the world around me slowly rots away Doesn’t matter, a single thing I say If no one around me hears it anyway Hears it anyway Don’t wanna be a bore Don’t wanna be your whore I don’t wanna do it anymore Don’t wanna pick a fight Just wanna do what’s right Before there’s no more No excuses, can’t make it up to me I can’t tell you who, you ought to be I’m not bothered, I’ll never bend a knee To a media with its hypocrisy Hypocrisy Don’t wanna be a bore Don’t wanna be your whore I don’t wanna do it anymore Don’t wanna pick a fight Just wanna do what’s right Before there’s no more No more

We're Not OK 03:11
This song is for the broken hearted Who’ve been beat down, cast out, discarded Left out in the cold For not doing what they’re told And now some are mad at them for being fucked up And won’t even share a sip from their cup I’m here to say you're not alone Or out here on your own I hope this, keeps you awake I know this We’re not OK, and that’s OK (X4) “We” ain’t the same as you and me Gonna have our own philosophy For the way we want to live And the shit we can forgive We’ve all got problems, maybe more than some But being held down by anyone Is never gonna be alright How do you sleep at night? I hope this, keeps you awake I know this We’re not OK, and that’s OK (X4) I hope this, keeps you awake I know this We’re not OK, and that’s OK (X4) We’re not OK, and that’s OK (X3) (This song is for the broken hearted) (X4)
