Walk

Can't you see I'm easily bothered by persistence One step from lashing out at you... You want in to get under my skin And call yourself a friend I've got more friends like you What do I do? [Pre:] Is there no standard anymore? What it takes, who I am, where I've been belong You can't be something you're not Be yourself, by yourself Stay away from me A lesson learned in life Known from the dawn of time [Chorus:] Respect, walk What did you say? Respect, walk Are you talking to me? Are you talking to me? Run your mouth...

Until The End

Weekends on young and angry streets We meet, drink 'till trouble found us there Living life as without a care We've had our fights, been black and blue Its true, I've even gone to jail for you my friends Bet your life that I'd do it again (Until the End) Don't change the way you think of me We're from the same story Life moves on, can't stay the same But some of us, I'm worried, yeah While some have gone their separate ways There's some still caught up with the past and stead to move on, you're missing most of your life They...

The Fight

The problem with society's been how do we teach And if they'll believe. We'll fight this battle for years to come 'til we all accept that we can stand on our own. Grandfather used his hands, he worked them to the bone. Provide his family with a happy home, alone. Don't take your aggression out on me. My own man is all I'm meant to be. This common place is so lazy, old, and tired All your ideas are so fucking uninspired. Takes more than one idea More than one person to fight the fight How many times have you taught and not conspired? Don't...

Tension

I wake up every morning, bright and early Roll out of bed but I'm never quite alone Tension is pulling me in all directions And all of these problems use me as their own Sometimes the pressure will just drive you crazy At any time I could explode I need some piece of mind, it's got me tired Don't wanna lose it, but I'm turning down that road I need a moment 'cause I've spread myself to thin We all need a moment in our life Works hard, the days too long And that's just where it begins Tension has had us all this time I sit in...

Girl I know

Let me tell ya 'bout a girl I know That comes alive when you take off her clothes There's no tellin' just where she's been Ask around but no one seems to know, yeah Late at night when your looking to sin Call her up and she'll lay down the law You can't trust her 'cause she'll lie to your face But that's not why you gave her a call You're waste deep inside The lust and burning desire We've all been more than eager to sin And it feels alright, 'till we pay the price Now you choose either naughty or nice 'Cause she's here for...

Flash Of The Blade

As a young boy chasing Dragons with your wooden sword so mighty, You're St. George or you're David and you always killed the beast Times change very quickly And you had to grow up early A house in smoking ruins and the bodies at your feet You'll die as you lived In a flash of the blade In corner forgotten away You lived for the touch For the feel of the steel One man, in his Honour. The smell of resined leather The sticky iron mask As you cut and thrust and parried at the fencing master's call He taught you all he ever...

Demons

I've been thinking lots about my life and How quick I'd wash it down the drain Past tense the future, nothing matters now I act on my own and I'm to blame Living's a wicked dream, where things turn out all wrong We're all so weak, no matter how strong, yeah I tried running away from me Convince me that I've grown, but I can't Change so unnaturally, Demons they follow me I quit running away from me Convinced that I have grown, but found out All my reasons for insanity, all a part of me I don't like that you're calling me a liar I...

Dancing Dead

Dead men, they celebrate as the final chapter fades away Cuz they can't hide; We can see their flesh is rotten! The band plays a hopeful tune The champagne is poured as they socialize The look in their eyes Hide in the light Everything is paid for tonight while at the party of the dead dancing in their graves The drinks here are free so relax Enjoy the sight of all the dead dancing in their graves And while the world that they built told 'em to change, told 'em to listen They just kept it the same And now that midnight...

Crossroad

I've been traveling for so long so lost till I stumbled upon two roads in front of me, I had to take my time to the right I could see a church I took a step in that direction first but to the left there was a watering hole where they were whiskey drunk and now that's where I wanna be The fire down here goes on and on If I was perfect then this would be easy Either road is plausible on both I could drown I walk through the center with no rules to guide me I realize it's difficult but now I can see There's gotta be another...

Almost Easy (CLA Mix)

I feel insane Every single time I'm asked to compromise 'Cause I'm afraid and stuck in my ways And that's the way it stays So how long did I expect love to outweigh ignorance? By the look on your face I may have forced the scale to tip I'm not insane, I'm not insane I'm not insane, I'm not... not insane (Mother) Come back to me it's almost easy (Said it all) Come back again it's almost easy Shame pulses through my heart from the things I've done to you It's hard to face but the fact remains that this is nothing new I left...

Afterlife (Alternate Version)

Like walking into a dream, so unlike what you've seen. So unsure but it seems, 'cause we've been waiting for you. Fallen into this place, just giving you a small taste. Of your afterlife here so stay, you'll be back here soon anyway. I see a distant light, but girl this can't be right. Such a surreal place to see so how did this come to be, Arrived too early. And when I think of all the places I just don't belong, I've come to grips with life and realize this is going too far. I don't belong here, we gotta move on dear, escape...
