1. SICK AS YOUR SECRETS

You're only sick as your secrets,
How many times did you disappear?
You're only good as your word,
How much longer can I believe?
I've buried bodies myself,
A hundred graves, a hundred ghosts
I see myself in you,
How much longer,
How much longer can I believe?

You paint a picture
in my head of where I've been
You write the scripture,
I hang on every word you say
As sick as thieves (As sick as thieves)
we huddle in you call the plays
How sick are we? (How sick are we?)
How sick are we now?

How can I believe?


2. SIN AND REDEMPTION

We kill time with sleep and heal
the heartache of thousands,
at the cost of ruining ourselves
Take it for granted.
We hone skills of cons and steal
the same hearts and bodies.
On our knees we're begging to be by ourselves,
but only in our heads.
Only in our heads.

You're laying down in front of me,
completely unaware I'm fantasizing
about everything I want,
and everything you're not,
we're screaming at the top of our lungs
but only in our heads.
Only in our heads.
Only in our heads.


3. SOS

And I can't protect this
anymore.
I can't reflect this light,
that you shine on me.
So I'm giving up, not giving in.
I'm selling out, not selling in.
Judge for what I've done not who I am.
So take your shot now, so take your swing.
Start a fight because you know you will win.
A perfect storm touches down in your head.
You think you've found where the bodies are buried,
but you could never dig them up.
This is forever.
So take your shot now, so take your swing.
Start a fight because you know you will win.
You can't expect me to forget.
This is forever. This is forever.
You can't expect me to just accept the lies you've said.
This is forever. This is forever.
I won't be here for you with forgiveness.
We can't recover.
So take your shot now, so take your swing.
Start a fight because you know you will win.
So take your shot now, so take your swing.
Start a fight because you know....you will win.


4. BROOKFIELD

A 26 ounce promise
The bottle still lays there
We'll make a right on Brookfield
Never took anyone else here
The days I sit for hours
This night I tried to throw these rocks in to
This dirty lake that's home
You standing in my backyard
Your hands up in the air
Calling out my name one hundred times but I'm not there
I think you telling secrets
To people who don't care enough to know
Why I'm so scared
I'll just sit in silence
Waves the only sounds
A sailboat divide the clouds that cover this whole town
So if it really makes no difference
I'll just see you around
And if it doesn't matter
I'll stay here til the sun goes down
I'm standing in your front yard
My hands aren't in the air
And I don't say a word you know exactly why I'm here
A 26 ounce promise
The bottle still lays there
So bury me on Brookfield and then I won't be scared


5. LA MARSEILLAISE

Arise!
The children of the fatherland.
The day of glory as arrived.
Against us tyranny.
The bloody standard is raised.
The bloody standard is raised.
Do you hear in the countryside
the roar of those ferocious soldiers?
They're coming right into our arms to cut the throats
of our sons and our women.
In arms, citizens!
Form your battalions!
Let us march! (Let us march!)
Let this impure blood water our furrows.


6. WORLD ON FIRE

I let it go and watched it fly,
So far away out of my sight.
I trusted in your eagle eye.
I let it go. I let it go.

I dug a hole into the ground.
I hid my chest, it won't be found.
I took a breath without a sound.
I let it go. I let it go.

Is this the start or end?

I've been told a thousand times it's good for me (good for me),
But I don't believe it.
I'm being warned by everyone that I meet (that I meet),
That I've set my world on fire.

Right now.
What it all comes down to.

I need to see it in your eyes (I need to see it in your eyes),
And never doubt it.
I need to know (Can you believe in something?).

I've been told a thousand times it's good for me (good for me),
But I don't believe it.
I'm being warned by everyone that I meet (that I meet),
That I've set my world on fire.


7. SLEEP AROUND

Start with the best intent you've earned it.
Promise was made not kept you've burned it.
Sleep around, you sleep around.
He's driving around his stomach churning.
Peering in bedroom windows searching.
Sleep around, you sleep around with me.
A lie and excuse will make no difference.
And the shades don't ever make it down.
It's obvious, we're obvious, we walk and talk so loud.
In the morning we lock our bodies,
sleep around, we sleep around in red.
We'll safely stash away the guilt again.


8. MY MISERABLE LIFE

It’s been four years of silence,
But there’s still so much left to say.
This dirty lens remembers,
I’ve tried to clean it and hide it away,
But it won’t forget you.

And if this picture tells the story of my miserable life,
Would you burn it for me or hang it up for everyone to see?
A thousand words judge me


9. TRUTH AND TEMPTATION

You can't stop it now,
it's already in motion.
Don't try to fight it now,
you're already dead again
She's taken over,
snuffed out the life you had,
the life you had.
It's coming down to this,
another year you can't have back.
You're a little older,
your lies a little bolder.
You've tried to change,
but the secret caged inside
won't escape you.
You should have stopped and told her,
your heart had gotten colder,
and make the change.
It's locked way deep inside,
you can't stop it now.


10. ONE LAST DANCE

I shot this glance to you
In a minute I’ll be gone
But not because I didn’t want to

No one wants to dance
So I’m standing on my feet
Nobody takes the chance
To break the law to start the beat

So I’m sitting this one out
I’m planning on my own
I’m staying put for now
But not forever

I’ll save this dance for you
In the morning I’ll be gone
But not because I didn’t want to
I tried so hard to stay, stay in love with you and me
I’m moving on because I have to

You say it’s too late, I was wrong, you can’t wait
I’ll try now, if you stay, stay with me

I’ll still fight for what’s right
I still dream every night
I still want to believe
You’re saving one last dance for me


11. SEE YA BILL

1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4
One thing that you gotta do
Is write your name on all your food
NO!
NAME!
FAIR!
GAME!
I say "See Ya" Bill


12. SHORT SONGS

I like short songs!
I like short songs!
I like short songs!

I like short songs!
I like short songs!
I like short songs!

Yeah, I like short songs!
I like short songs!
I like short songs!
I like short songs!
I like short songs!
I like short songs!
I like short songs!
I like short songs!


13. 236 E. BROADWAY

It seems so tough sometimes
When you face a day with back to back conflict
When you get pushed around you might stand your ground
Might end up on your back but...

When you fall do you benefit and talk about it?
When you fall do you get back up with your head above you?
When you fall...?

I choked back tears last night
Sitting alone in a restaurant thinking...
How did I get so low?
How did I manage to sink to the bottom?

When you fall do you benefit and talk about it?
When you fall do you get back up with your head above you?
When you fall, when you fall, when you fall...


14. GOOD INTENTIONS

Things I try don't work out
Other people gripe and shout
That's not positive
I'm not perfect, I'm just Civ

Trial and error...good intentions!

Throw a beer at the stage
That's how you behave
Paid admission, had no fun
You think I'm the stupid one

Think again...good intentions!

I'll just try my best...and you?
Nothing!


15. DESTINATION: BLOOD!

This is our party!
We pick the records!
We set the dress code!
And make love on the dance floor!

Like it or not we're the only game in town!
Like it or not we're the only game!
Like it or not we're the only game in town!
Like it or not we're the only game in...!
The only game in town!
The only game in town!


16. COFFEE MUG

Mug, mug, mug

Coffee mug
Gonna clear away the haze
Liquid proof
That I can win this race

Coffee mug
The grip that keeps me tall
My inter-link
Keeps me questing all

I don't need no booze or drugs
I just chug-a-lug-o my coffee mug
And I don't need your kiss and hug
I just chug-a-lug-o my coffee mug

They haven't banned
My liquid drug of choice
There's too many hooked
And they've got too much voice

So for the moment
We're all pretty good to go
With 98 cups
With 98 more to go

I don't need no booze or drugs
I just chug-a-lug-o my coffee mug
And I don't need your kiss and hug
I just chug-a-lug-o my coffee mug

Here a bean, there a bean
Everywhere a mean mean
Bean chug - a - lug - o - my coffee
Mug, mug, mug, mug


17. xON OUR KNEESx

I don't want it!
I don't want it!
I don't want it!
I don't want it!

I don't need it!
I don't need it!

I don't want it!
I don't want it!

Who wins when we go through life on our knees?


18. SCENES FROM PARISIAN LIFE

The sun comes up a little later
So you can drink a little longer

I wish I had a dream last night
I wish I had a dream last night
So half the time you'd be here
I wish you were here

I'm on your vine now, so high, I can see Italy


19. IT'S MY JOB TO KEEP PUNK ROCK ELITE

Indiscriminate I'd rather be elite
I'll choose my own shit scene
Unsubstantiated rumors flown are true
I'm here for me not you

Nonconglumurate I mean what I say
I'm not your fucking scape
Goat apparently I've alienated some
It seems my job's half done

You'll never understand it
Try to buy and brand it
I win, you lose, cause it's my job
To keep punk rock elite

This music ain't your fucking industry


20. QUIT YOUR JOB

Quit your job
Screw you around
Screw you around
They screwed you around

Whatever you do
Don't start a band
Don't start a band
Don't start a band
Don't start a band


21. THE BALLAD OF WILHELM FINK

Said that I'd meet you
At the Oakfield Marina
3 AM when no one will be found

All I got in mind
Is a Boone's Farm jug of wine
Smash a bottle in the parking lot

But considering our luck
We'll get busted by the cops
Instead of sex, we'll go to jail
Another lesson learned and failed


22. YOU GOTTA STAY POSITIVE

You gotta stay positive!
