1. HARDLY

I am a memory,
I never existed
And now I am nothing.
Her name, a single word
Melts me, takes me to the ground.
Only alive, can't she see
I'm destroyed by yesterdays.
And do I gain?
I could only Dream
For chance to side with me,
Inquire, ingest, implode.
Let this not be the dissemblance of me.
Another night with arms still empty.
I'm destroyed.
And do I gain?
Or just fall.


2. IF BORN FROM THIS SOIL

This world is a burden
And it disgusts me.
I want to deny it,
Its inhabitants and their possessions.
I'm embarrassed to know
This soil produced me.
I'm dying to be elsewhere,
Trying not to belong in a nature
Of impulse and self indulgence.
A brother to none,
my kinship lies elsewhere.
I am separate and loyal to no one,
If born from this soil.
I'm embarrassed to know you;
you do not represent me.
a likeness only in structure,
Not in mind.
I vow to never belong to anyone
Born from this soil
A people that follows blindly
Will not reprimand me.


3. FOR THE WORLD

Poured myself out:
I am the empty cup
My hope has died away
And my tolerance faded.
How can I keep Stability
On such shaky ground?
Prayers that a smile will flag me down.
Sadly I've learned there's no truth in comfort;
Well-being stems not from love.
Anguish proves to be my only means of solace,
Yet I want to be held by anyone,
With any arms
I spend another morn alone
In a world that rejects me.
A public unkind, laced with apathy.
This one's for the world: I hate you.
Life could get no colder;
I'm living out a dying cell,
But I can pull through.



4. THE BONDS OF THOSE WHO HAVE NO UNDERSTANDING OF CONSEQUENCE

Death will end the weakness
I am a violent tendency sparked by the words of the world
An isolated integrity employing wisdom learned through the search for the truth
Searching to no avail
Those enlightened abandon hope for truth
Those enlightened trust no one
I've lived so openly and have been so naive to think that any man can be believed
I will pledge no allegiance to a defect and within this resistance
I am liberated
I repel the weakness and side strongly with virtue
I resist insincerity
I resist humanity
There is no person's promise that can not be broken
One more time
Only death will end the weakness
Anyone can comfort me with promises again I know
Wading through deceit and lies to end in the arms of mistrust
An embrace I've grow to despise
All are insincere


5. LOVE IS THE FALL OF EVERY MAN

I stand on the edge of destruction
Emotionally ruined
By the warmth I most desire
I will not fall prey to love
Of a human kind
Love is weakness
Love is the fall of every man
Take this heart you've claimed
And as it numbs your hands
Know the flame is dead
And will no longer burn
This body will never pain again
This mind knows no wound
Though I am of flesh
This flesh will not consume me
As it has destroyed so many before
This body will never pain again
This mind knows no wound
The flame is dead
Left only with ashes of memories
That renew my faith in hate
And my faith in myself
Nothing can break me!
This heart remains free
From the burden of love
Yet this heart will be sustained
No hope No compassion
I fill my heart with strength


6. WHEN ONE BESTS DEFEAT

The vigor in my soul won't stand for this anymore
The potency that is my being is far ruin
Far from silenced
And far from death
With Severed legs
I'd walk with intent to prosper
A body plagued with sickness and still I'd dare to dream
For I can
Breathe my blood is fire and I bleed life
The defeatist is dead
No remorse for that man who dies
A sad bitter man whose contempt for himself exceeded his contempt for the world
No remorse for those who chis spirit
A sad bitter lot whose lack of insight left a man broken Left many broken
The disenchanted led by the frightened only blessed
With the absence of respect
A world enslaved by itself but one was reborn to conquer
I climb to the crest and strive to climb higher
At the core of my being is vitality that will not die
My blood is fire and I bleed life
My blood is fire


7. FEARLESS VAMPIRE KILLERS (BAD BRAINS COVER)

The bourgeoisie had better watch out for me
All throughout this so called nation
We don't want your filthy money
We don't need your innocent bloodshed
We just wanna end your world
Well my minds made up
Yes, it's time for you to pay
Better watch out for me
I'm a member of the F.V.K


8. SET YOUR BODY ABLAZE

From flesh to steel...

I fortify this easily splintered bone into a stronghold of will
As the balance of man lay beaten in the wake of its own frailty

A horde eager to accept deceit and more so to speak it
Words will sear the throats of all who freely beguile
The trught burns through my veins and in my black heart
Breathe the flame that will overwhelm you; flaw ignites swiftly

A product of conceit so absorbed and vain that he thinks himself divine;
He is sure to die
And man must truly be God; for he has tried so hard to create me
In His image, a formless shadow deprived of life

I am the wayward son of man
My fathers have darkened what was the warmest heart the world
Would have ever known
Relish in what you have created

Set your body ablaze
Hollow words will burn and hollow men will burn


9. ANESTHESIA (BAD RELIGION COVER)

Yeah
Everybody's talking about the girl who went and killed the deliveryman
But she looks so kind and gentle it just doesn't stand to reason
I saw her right there just the other night as stately as a slot machine
When she looked my way something mad as Hell came over me
Anesthesia
Mona Lisa
I've got a little gun here comes oblivion
I never loved you
How did you find me
The cops will never prove complicity
Now Anna(one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight)
All good children go to Heaven
I remember your face that August night when we lied about the beautiful times to come
And that crazy old man who came much too late and caused a chain reaction
I've been hanging out here for eleven long years like a church mouse wondering where the cat has gone
And looking at you now is driving me to distraction
Anesthesia
Mona Lisa
I've got a little gun here comes oblivion
I never loved you
How did you find me
The cops will never prove complicity
Now Anna(one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight)
All good children go to Heaven
I never loved you


10. LINOLEUM (NOFX COVER)

Possesions never meant anything to me
I'm not crazy
Well that's not true I've got a bed
And A guitar
And a dog named Bob who pisses on my floor
That's right I've got a floor
So what? So What? So What?
I've got pockets full of lint and holes
Where everything important to me
Just seems to fall right down my leg
And onto the floor
My closest friend, linoleum...linoleum
Supports my head, gives me something to believe
That's me on the beachside combing the sand
Metal meter in my hand
Sportin' a pocket full of change
That's me in the street with a violin under my chin
Playing with a grin
Singin' jibberish
Thats me on the back of the bus
Thats me in the cell
Thats me inside your head
Thats me inside your head


11. DAMAGE, INC. (METALLICA COVER)

Dealing out the agony within
Charging hard and no one's gonna give in
Living on your knees, conformity
Or dying on your feet for honesty
Inbred, our bodies work as one
Bloody, but never cry submission
Following our instinct not a trend
Go against the grain until the end
Blood will follow blood
Dying time is here
Damage Incorporated
Slamming through, don't fuck with razorback
Stepping out? You'll feel our hell on your back
Blood follows blood and we make sure
Life isn't for you and we're the cure
Honesty is my only excuse
Try to rob us of it, but it's no use
Steamroller action crushing all
Victim is your name and you shall fall
Blood will follow blood
Dying time is here
Damage Incorporated
We chew and spit you out
We laugh, you scream and shout
All flee, with fear you run
You'll know just where we come from
Damage Incorporated
Go!
Damage jackals ripping right through you
Sight and smell of this, it gets me goin'
Know just how to get just what we want
Tear it from your soul in nightly hunt
Fuck it all and fucking no regrets
Never happy ending on these dark sets
All's fair for Damage Inc., you see
Step a little closer if you please
Blood will follow blood
Dying time is here
Damage Incorporated


12. LOST CAUSE

Get out of here!
Leave me alone!
I don't need you.
You make me sick.
You are just a lost cause.
Can't stand the things you do.
You are just a lost cause.
I've had enough of you.
You are just a lost cause.
Can't stand the things you do.
You are just a lost cause.
I've had enough of you.
Get out of here!
Leave me alone!
I don't need you.
You make me sick.
You are just a lost cause.
You are just a lost cause.
You are just a lost cause.
You are just a lost cause.
One, two, one, two, three, four...


13. Faithless Is He Who Says Farewell When the Road Darkens

Rather let me fail, than never to have tried at all.
Come what may, nothing short of death will see me cry defeat.
Rule every moment. Seize every day.
By storm. By the throat. With every breath I take.
It's not what you can not do, it's what they told you, you can not do;
so, fire your gun into the mouth of doubt.
Let the masses dictate themselves.
I am not now theirs, nor will I ever be.
They wont crush my hopes.
They cannot smash my dreams.
I am not inspired by men without faith.
I am not deterred by events that cause the average man to break.
Rule every moment. Seize every day.
