I see my dog as human being. I feel like breaking down at what I see. An animal stripped away of a chance to survive without pain and strife. I can't see what this world's become to be. A materialistic world has filled our narrow minds, forgetting the feelings of other kinds. When will I realize that animal torture is just another disguise for hurting our fellow beings? Well I've got to scream this: Does an animal even mean shit? Does he feel the same way I do? Does it cry when it's in pain? Is it happy when it plays? Doesn't that make it equal to me and you?

Think
01:33

Fuck your fairytale bullshit. You visualize world peace, chanting love and cooperation, then you treat the world like a maggot. If you got off your ass and really tried you might find it's easier than changing channels on your television! Building bombs throughout the lands. nazi youth from Hitlers' hands. Pregnancy is on the rise. Friends drove drunk and they all died. Your girlfriend left you so now you're alone, but we're still fucken our ozone. People starving. People in need. Cocaine wars filled with greed. Think about it before it's too late. Think about it before we're all fucken dead. Animal torture still around, young kids lost and found. An airline got shot down in enemy zones. Nationalistic fuckhead clones, oil spills within our fucken seas, Ronald McDeath is chopping trees think about what's going on before we're dead and our earths gone!!

All Grown Up
00:58
|
|||
You kept telling me to grow up but if growing up means acting like you I am never gonna grow up. I'm gonna keep my youth. You can never go out unless you go out with me. You can't play in a band or with your friends. If you love me you'll do it for me. Now you're grown up, now that your all grown up your a mom at 17. I'm in a band with my friends and I've built up my self-esteem, and now that you're all grown up your life's already been planned away. And I'll keep acting like a kid and I'll grow up some other day.

I'm Not Gonna Stop
01:15
|
|||
I spoke out and tried to change things so why am I called the imbecile? I just didn't like what they were saying I wanted to change their apathy! It doesn't make no sense just doing my part. I was used to taking the easy way out, but made up my mind to take a stand. Just 'cause you get mad I'm not gonna stop!

Bushanomics
01:20
|
|||
This is where the bullshit ends, this is where the bullshit starts. The very beginning of the rest of my life, work, buy, smile, die, money in my pocket. Green paper propaganda controls my smile, trying to fight it but wind up buying it. Happiness found within a fucken coin! Throwning it away like wasting food! Want to speak but got to sleep for that smile. I'm a work jerk gotta buy, gotta sh** I'll be with you in a second sir, Bushonomics up my fucken ass!

Walls Of Shit
02:07
|
|||
I can't shed a tear no more it just makes me fucken mad. I can't live my life anymore. Living in the past. It seems I've carried this fucked up crutch impaled up my ass! I've to get my shit together and get together fast! All these dreams, and all these feelings, I can't scream, it's killing me! I used to look at everything being constantly reminded. All the shit inside my head just kept me fucken blinded to all the things that are there for me on the other side of the hall. Now it's time I smash the fucker or die inside these walls!!

Energy
01:08
|
|||
Energy is the ability to work or to cause change. It's not real hard to make it when your not alone, you say I make no difference in this dying corrupt world. Fuk your attitude. I won't give in cause it ain't worth being dead. All we know, and all we've said, it wasn't for nothing it meant something, do you care, do you want to help? Do you want to change things right now? We're not alone but we're separated from people that don't give, would you rather be so ignorant that you didn't care? I don't know man no one's right but who will you stand for? Would you rather commit suicide cause that's where we're headed!!

Please Come In

Getting into me, a hand down my throat. Blood under my skin. Is on it's way out. to put things in their places I put myself here. I don't see it so it isn't there. The real truth is, that I don't fucking care. I close my eyes it's an easy choice. Fuk that bullshit I want a voice! 1-1-1 is three, we should stand together, fuk the anger and fuk the hate compassion and love is what I say! it's not easy it's not hard until I try I won't get far. He's 16 years old and he's all alone, his mom and dad said your on your own then they jumped on a bus going south. Where's to go and who's to meet and would he make it on the street and tell me who's gonna keep him warm at night? I am 20 years old and why do i feel so cold am I gonna die?

Today was a fucked up day. I worked in the hot sun all I did was sit in a classroom and listen to teachers tell me how to live. No! No way, fuk know Fuck you! Today was a fucked up day, it took forever but at least we go to jam, had to go to work. I had to mow a lawn. Had to fix his fence and I had to fix his jon. Today was a beautiful day. I skated in the hot sun, found 30 bucks, I almost paid rent, just bought a quarter with the money I spent, no more money ha ha ha!

Problem
01:02
|
|||
Everything' so extraordinary, some real bad and some good story's and some days are all the same. Go to a party, drink some beer tea. Scream out loud so you can hear me. Call me stupid. Call me names. I am convinced that you are the assholes. Fuk this fuk that you are the problem your fucken lame your fucken stupid. So called love, you sexist cupid, your muscle headed apathy. Well so I'm a punk and so I'm gay. At least we're happy in my own way. We're not blind at least we can see.

|
|||
Yah that's it you fucken idiot. Make a fist and take a swing. Now your better then the rest of us. you forgot your a human being, such a big man impressed your friends that guy can really fight. Don't want my advice I'm giving it to you man go fly a kite! Fuk someone up god your so tough. No one's gonna get in your way. Someday some crazier fucker's gonna laugh and blow you away! And when your gone it won't really matter cause now i;ts up to your friends. They'll kill the guy who took your life and the ignorance never ends! Violent fuk, I'll have my say. Violent fuk get the fuk away! Every time I look at you, I could see somebody new. Your fucken ego controls your mind. Common sense was left behind. Macho shit your ways are absurd. I'm not screaming for nothing I hope I'm heard. Real nice guy when not with friends. Your friends are there and niceness ends!

But If You Weren't Here
01:56
|
|||
I know that things aren't as nice as we'd like them to be. And I know that we don't have everything we need. But I'm here and your here and we still have a few friends and I'm not saying that I couldn't be much happier. But if you weren't here and my friends all went away I probably wouldn't know exactly what to do. If I could think good thoughts and stand on my own two feet. Then that night be enough to make me want to live!

Could've Been
00:57
|
|||
This just ain't any old song. It's about a friend who went away. Hope that you don't take it wrong. But this is what I have to say. Why did it happen. Could have been a revolution, why did it happen. No solution, you help me strengthen my bent mind and showed me how to dance. You helped me see what I couldn't find so tell me there's a chance! I would like to start again, without that mental pollution. Take it from where we left off and make that revolution.

Blood Gutter
01:38
|
|||
You talk and talk but never listen. In one ear and out the other. Laugh and with no emotion when you see another crying. Close your heart as well as your mind other people share your views, root for your country in time of war not realizing both sides will lose! Fucken stop and wake up! Think about the shit you do. Pull yourself out of the rut. Idiocy is ruling you. Hypocrisy, democracy, genocide. It's so unfair. Look at what its causing, global fucken warfare! What does it take to get to your mind? Get to your heart? It's fucken murder rammed in your face. It;s precious life being ripped apart! All around look at what's being isolated? If the tables where turned and you were the victim, suffering in pain, your violent screams rejected!! That is death. The hand of hell this so many totally ignore! Watch the blood drip from the gutter, as it hits the bottom another one dies, maybe it would give you some compassion senesless fucken bullshit just ain't right!!
