Top Shelf:
Step one step two annihilated not getting through a daily testament your lack of confidence
or bastard temperament so what's the difference say something, say something else you just pushed it
off the shelf got bills to pay, work for minimum wage working everyday, what could I say with the next word you speak
you just might get kicked in the teeth late for work again your job won't pay the rent another day of debt so what's the difference well
life gets rough and this is tough the routine grinds you down out and around, we just crossed town drank too much last night again

Dear Old Dad:
Which side of this life will you fight before you realize what is wrong and what is right
I remember twenty years ago you stood and watched me play baseball you were the greatest dad those were the greatest times of all whatever
happened whatever happened to you never forget never forget memories inside my head got to much pride to think of them every time
I talk to you you take two steps backwards which side of this life will you fight before you realize its over I remember when you
stood backwards and you told me this wasn't over dear old dad

Brick Layer:
Threw a brick through a window today and I stood around just to watch it break so I started showing severe signs
of stress now I need to calm myself still I need some rest guess they were right so I am wrong again if the system works why can't I get ahead
quality is worth its weight in gold and I reduce the gears just to make it slow so I need as much speed as I can get now I need to calm myself,
need to clear my ahead wrong again

Guessing Is A Sin:
Well I guess it will be all right he said at the club all night the bottle broke he held on tight his hand bled
so he ran outside he kept laughing on and its more than you can take but I tell you I'd make this same mistake you may never understand but I tell
you I'd break before I'd bend do it all again 'cause guessing is a sin I guess I'll be okay he said betting on roulette one day black 22 his chips
were played he wasn't saving for a rainy day he kept losing on

President's Day:
So you say that you walk the line those rosy glasses that kept you blind we all want to be president convenience
lets us settle for less and they said suck me in to the punk rock show we wanted more but we let go like an anchor going down grab like an anchor going
down grab for anything around we don't want to live without trust we're afraid that you'll see right through us and they said sit back and listen in my
life starts where I begin sit back and listen in we don't have to follow the trend

More Metal:
Stole a breath of air to have the life sucked out of me but we are not alone because we are who we are supposed to be
closed circuit, reverse it, quick wits won't last forever closed circuit, reverse it, who said that life was hard like this took the risk to taste the thrill
of some anxiety but we are not afraid because we are who we'd like to be you and I always wondered why we get by you are more metal then...

Across The Green Bridge:
Across the green bridge where the liars live and I hope they die and you wonder why I have no time for them so now
we are moving up and moving on we left this town for so long how I am still part of this it's time to say goodbye and I refuse to fight until we fight again I believe
there is something more locked inside of me please agree you said who I am and I said who are you who the fuck are you? Hey alright, we can't see eye to eye and that's
just fine you live your life and I'll live mine

Some Things Never Change [Basements + Broken Glass]:
Sat outside and looked around wanting to yell my dreams out loud happiness it turns my gears even as the months turn to years as
they turn to years the boys pull up and we drove away we won't be back for a couple of days took my drink and smashed it down fuck it all it will come around times we had and
days we shared remember those like yesterday why will this never change why will this always be the same be the same the boys pull up and we drove away we won't be back for a
couple of days why will this be the same why will this always be the same sat outside and looked around wanting to yell my dreams out loud why will this be the same why will
this never ever change one, two, fuck you it will come around

Anthem For The Apahetic:
With your fist thrown in the air someone screams revolution a hint of hypocrisy this cookie cutter mold has not been broken the rhetoric spewed
isn't yours as opposed to what I believe your latest radical co-op cause who are you trying to appease you thought this would change you won't change a thing make your mark right from
the start you are not what you believe I'm positive suburban middle class guilt won't change a thing I'm positive suburban middle class guilt is fucking killing me I'm positive

The Unbearable Rightness Of Being:
So you think you have the right to say on and on and on that the end will justify your means on and on and on just another face in the crowd tried to
stand out by standing around we want it all right now nothing better then your head in the clouds heading nowhere hanging around I know you know what I should do
Back to track listing
The Way Of My World:
Journeys unstoppable living life gonna live it to the end with dreams illogical like palm trees blowing in a distant wind you've got to lose to know how good
it feels to win if your life was easy nothing would teach you the way of it way of it that's the way of my world countdown oblivion when you got nothing you got nothing to lose four, three, two,
one so I match wit with risk live it like the last day of my life 'cause if I try to change this things won't get any easier for my time if I just start today and never turn around tomorrow never
take that walk down that lonely old road home and that's the way of my world when you got nothing you got something to prove Johnny, Johnny Johnny's unstoppable living life gonna live it to the end
with dreams illogical like palm trees blowing in a distant wind you got to lose know how good it feels to win never take that walk down that lonely old road that lonely road home countdown apocalypse
countdown oblivion count me in
