Lyrics


1. LIVE IN FEAR

Live in fear [x3]

Dead end generation you should live in fear
Mass destruction, corruption and no one cares
White is the color of thos ein power
Red is the color of the millions slaughtered
Blue is the color of the flesh that rots
Murderers go free while some are never caught
It's been said before it's time to listen
Tune into the news you don't know what you're missing

Lies! Decite, injustice!
This is how our culture lives!

Six year olds with fucking guns
Run away youth on the fucking run
Parents who abuse their kids
Yet we're told be proud where we fucking live
Proud for crime, proud for death
Proud for the fucking poor who tried their best
Told to vote, cast your ballot
But the vote only counts if you're the few in power.

Lies! Decite, injustice!
This is how our culture lives!
This is how our culture lives!


2. SOMETHING TO SAY

I've got something to say
And I just can't fucking hold it anymore
It means more to me today
Then it ever fucking did before
I'm a punk
And I've finally learned what it means to me
It doesn't dictate who I am
I define what the word means

I ain't ever scared to say
I'm proud to be where I am today
Always follow your dreams
If I ever cared what people say
I wouldn't be who I am today
Be yourself to be free

Use destruction
It's the only way to pave salvation
But don't forget creation
It's the REAL history of this nation
Hate and fear your government
Because what they steal is your onlycovenant
Love your land, your nation
But don't forget theres a whole world out there waiting

Be yourself to be free


3. GIVE IN TO HATE

Violence surround me
Violence in society
Violence in our eyes
Violence in their cries
Violence it's too late?
Violence no escape?
Violence it's our fate?
Violence give in to hate?

Is it human nature to act like animals?
We're all guilty, we're all criminals
Selfish species headed for a self destruction
Violent product of a moral corruption

Violence for love
Violence because of hate
Violence revoultion
violence of the state
Violence you will find
Violence it grips your mind
Violence it's too late?
Violence give in to hate?


4. 1,000 MILES

Another show, another fight, another beer, another Sleepless night
No food or money it's all pay to play
Drive all night to work an eight hour day
Seven years of playin shows, where it ends no one knows
There's confusion in my head, I wish I was in my bed
Driving in a beat up van, you wanna critisize the band
You don't know what we go through, FUCK YOU

1000 miles away from home
Where we'll end up no one knows

Another city, another town
Another transmisson run into the ground
But you gotta keep going as fast as you can
Seeing the world from the back of a van
How long will we sit at home, get me to the open road
I can't pay my fucking rent, all my money has been spent
Homeless for the next few weeks, can we stay with you to Sleep
I'd rather make this my life, it's better than working nine To five


5. THE ANGER AND THE TRUTH

Where's the anger?

There comes a day when you finally realize
That everything you've been taught was a fucking lie
They always said that you should always tell the truth
Do as I say, but don't do as I do

Where's the anger?
Where's the fucking truth?
Did you lose it somewhere in your youth?

Sometimes it's hard to see the enemy
The left, the right, or the fence of apathy
The sheep or the wolf, it's a thinly veiled disguise
Movements are worthless if they're plagued with lies


6. NO TURNING BACK

I'm sick in the mind, body, and soul
This way of living has taken it's toll
I'm abusing myself, but I'll never learn
I just want to watch this city burn

There's no turning back, once you've turned your back

I'm sick of the human race
Wanna see society laid to waste
Of the people who destroy more than they create
Live to kill, love to hate

I used to feel sympathy but now it's all just apathy
I'll just turn my back as the world burns all around me
Am I dying for a change or just dead on the inside?
Maybe I don't look cause I'm not sure what I'll find
So I point the finger at whose to blame
But deep inside, we're all the same
Is this me, can it be?
Have I become... one of them?


7. WHAT HAPPENNED ?

They shut down another venue
Proving once again they're right
We can't even police ourselves
Or see a show without a fight
That's why

I'm so fucken sick of this scene
But what you gonna do?
Condemn anything you think is different
That's nothing new

What happened to intelligence in the scene?
Maybe there was never any
All right

I ain't saying we can't have no fun
But would it hurt to fucking think?
What seperates you from the dumb jocks?
When all you do is fucking drink

Don't preach, learn, teach.


8. NO MASTER RACE

Fuck off to nazi idea worshipping ku klux klan preaching Power for religion,
Church is getting rich again
I say there's nothing wrong with hate, its something I embrace
But dont hate a fucking person cause the color of his face
Your screaming in the suburbs a middle class brat
Sometimes i fucking wonder where your head is at
Yhe world is full of problems
Dont blame it on the jews
I'd rather be friends with them than the fucking likes of you

Race riot its past debate the war is on and fueled on hate [repeat]

There is no master race
So open up your eyes
Fuck nazi religion kkk
It's all a fucking lie [repeat]


9. NEVER FORGET

Its the dead of night and she wakes up screaming
But her terror doesn't end when she's done dreaming
She recloses her eyes and all she sees is your face
Bringing her back to that time and that place
When you forced your way into her front door
You took all her possessions, still you wanted more
Grabbed her by the arms, forced her to the bed
You left her body but you'll never leave her head

Never forget, never walk away
Pain, regret, till her dying day

He was very young but he knew when to hide
He didn't recognize the smell booze
But could see it in your eyes
He swore when he was older he'd get his revenge
But he never got the chance cause you left when he was ten
Now he walks the street with hatred in his eyes
A needle in his veins, a head so full of lies
All his wounds have healed, scars still mark the flesh
Drugs numb the pain but he'll never forget

How do you sleep at night?
What gave you the right
Destroying people's lives
Only their pain will survive

Never forget


10. WHERE HAVE YOU GONE ?

I've seen so many kids over the years
A few years come and go and they disappear
Punk rock is not a trend its a fucking life style
Yet so many fade out after a while
When you grew up and deserted the scene
Found the american nightmare is the american dream
Your ideas changes as you matured and grew
The system you despised now controls you

Where have you gone?
You faded away

You faded away, now you're gone

So many scream the kids are united
Then they grow up and become divided
Don't look down on us, cause we won't change like you
Who gave you the right to write the rules
Work five days a week and you slave nine to five
Well half your life you lived a lie
I thought I knew you, man I was fooled
You have gone and let the system trap you


11. FIGHT FOR A BETTER LIFE

Ae are one
And i refuse to believe that we have to live like this
You slag off
Anyone who tries to rise above all it

You're never gonna stop fighting
For a better life
So get used to it kid!

You're jaded, over rated
If you think you've seen it all then think again
Same story, you're boring
The day you die is the day you throw up your hands

Stay pissed, stay young, stay pissed


12. NO EVACUATION

When the time comes what are you gonna do?
When the sirens blow, 10 seconds of chaos
Is it your regret? does it matter anyway?
When the poisons come from all around

No evacuations

For a split second we're all the same
Nothing to lose, nothing to gain
No classes, money, or politics
Just flesh and blood and eyes of fire
All those years of fucking pain
All those years of suffering
Are wasted away

When the bomb is dropped
And the button is pushed
There is no second chance
Your nations on fire
You're going down
