Drain
Miss integrity your face
is turning red again now
Something no one needs to
see
So if you follow through
with your intentions
All your fretting can all
get washed away
Right before your eyes
Don't realize
Understanding all depends
Knowing if you're winning
Keep up to the pace
So if you meet it less at
your discretion
All your fretting will all
get harder to deal with than
I ever thought that it would
be on you
If you're going to sleep
it off it's not my style
Why the sudden change
You're neglecting everything
built complex
Your doubt of honesty has
all been self inspired.
Stronger than you make yourself
to be
Got to keep your head in
line
Rejected is how you feel
this time
All's the same needless
to say
Shrug it off before all
gained respect
Turns into nothing more
back
In Reach
Take this down and make sure
that
You remember that what you
think
What appears is not always
the case
Still you're talking shit
all for no reason
You try competing with the
words I speak
I feel the tension
You're blown away
I'm taking you down
Options are still in reach
There's no peace in this
discomfort
Don't know why I fell so
hard
Now all your opinions are
going sour
Such strong opinions but
not your own...
And just when things started
going for me
I don't need this, still
receive it
And now you're talking shit
And it blows me away
Don't talk any more and
it's making me think
More than I want to, settle
the score
What is it for, it sets
you back
Leaves you waiting for something
to give.
back
This Side
Break it down to me
You really think it's all
that easy
You shouldn't even waste
your time
And don't you
Feed the lines with all
your shit cause
Ignorance makes easy critics
Media with wrong direction
Is more than we're asking
for
You write us off
False autority is fine but
it's all for the narrow minded
You don't understand
The position that you hide
behind
And now I know your really
so far off
Another biased view
Judging all our true intentions
Somehow it looks to me
You don't seem to call the
shots that fair
I give it everything
No compromise for what you
say it's all the same
How can you not understand
you're so far off
What you meant to say
Is different from the way
that it's supposed to be
What you portray is all
the same you're so far off
back
Less Than
Nothing
Remember we'd confide without
a second guess
The feeling now a loss or
maybe less
Emptiness, a feeling of
self regret
Something I will never ever
forget
The faces you have stepped
on have been broken down
Understand your motivations
Guilt lies on
Knowing you were desecrating
Friendships gone
You threw it all away
Something you should have
known
We both were wrong
Was left unsaid and it weighs
on me
It's just like you to be
settling for less than nothing
You're making assumptions
My views mean nothing to
you
Remain half a step away
without
Mending the trust that has
been torn apart
Misunderstanding has left
this all for naught
Swallow your pride and let's
salvage what we both knew
Disregard the senseless
conflict
Take down your guard
It will be dismissed.
back
Wasted
Eighteen years old, did what
you're told
You've gone on with all
your parents wishes
Fancy degree thought that
was the key
But now you're stuck washing
dishes
It's still so distant from
you
The life that you wanted
Your dreams are lost behind
you
Forget it start over.
Five fifty plus tips, putting
up with shit
This can't be all that there
is
Four years in the books
and all your time it took
And you end up with nothing
but this
I can't believe you now
All that time wasted
You thought you had it all
worked out
It seems so simple
Now that you are on your
own, so devastated
You wish you had all the
time back
Now that you've had a sample
You face that fear
A solemn oath that you were
forced into
back
Turd Farmer
My girl sits so close
I squeal my tires just for
show
And cruise the strip until
the Red Rooster is closed
Get some offsales to go
fuck shit up
Hey, don't you even try
to look at me
Hey goof, what did you just
say
Hop in my truck
Find someone to fuck up
Punks, fags, geeks, wimps,
traveling freak show in a motorhome
A pacifist you say
Maybe I'd understand you
if I'd make it through grade 8
Hey goof what did you just
say
Your days are spent thinking
of ways
To create confrontations
with someone
Trying to understand just
can't comprehend
Your turd mentality
In time you may free yourself
Put your dickmode in a bucket
And run over it with your
truck
You don't need to prove
yourself to me
I know better
back
Lost Cause
You've found another reason
For you to keep on stalling
It seems to make no difference
When you are your best interest
Back yourself with the lies
you spread
In the end there's no truth
to defend
Now you're watching out
over your shoulder
Cause everyday the past
gets closer
You've been running
Hiding from the truth too
long
Now another day goes by
and you stand there
Looking down on those who
carried you so far
Now another day you say
that it's not fair
You brought it on and you
can't take it
back
Filter
Today I felt the weight compelling
Not the first it's not the
best I've been
No thoughts come out worth
saying
Self tension has limited
What am I committing myself
to
Resistance is going no where
It still counts to you more
than anything
When you're around pocket
all of my attention
Filter out you
Fault touches no one, it
just happens, no one wins
I guess it all depends
Tomorrow I'll feel the weight
times ten
No thoughts to speak, no
self expression
Complacency is all I need
Insight of what's important
to me
You don't know me, just
pretend to
Important to me isn't to
you
Why I seal off all connections
Self tension has got to
end
back
Doin' Fine
I start to think allot about
what I did
But not what I would say
My friend, it's not what
they told me
Had allot of shit go down
but in the final stage
You wanted me just to stay,
I've done my all
Now I'm stable,
Now that the cards are on
the table.
Well all was said in decent
taste
All I needed was some distance
and space, a mess
A lesson is learned
Allot of people knocked
it but what they'd see was
Different from what you'd
say
You'd say I can't understand
why you don't come to visit
Get on with your life, you
can't understand...
That I'm doin' fine this
time, I don't really care
What you say no more now
that I see
What was distant from me,
not going to wake up
Doing fine this time
That could be why you are
here no more
Things for you went wrong
this time
You want it more than I
do,
Something changed along
these lines
You needed it more than
I did.

Six Inch
Coiler On White
Laid awake all night preoccupied
Rummaging through
Stacks of dreams that have
been pushed aside
Is expired aspirations built
on lies
So I complain
Again another miss, I never
again
I've waited for so long
I push to follow through,
it never seems to show that way
In myself, tired of this
slow pace
Promised everything
Force fed shit that I will
eat
I'll be naïve
Just this last time
Stuffed in my face
Wake up every day
Find myself in the same
place
My hope defaced
It serves me right
Everyday I'm fed the same
Cannot compete
What's in the way
Why can't I sleep
Cannot be optimistic
What will it take
Cannot compete
Everyday I feel the same
And nothing's ever going
to take my dignity.
back
Bent On
Profit
Stagnant lives
All kept in place
By those who say
9-5 makes them stronger
They say the same shit everyday
They don't even know their
names
Forgotten in false promises
of reaching so much more
Silent cries
Drowned inside
Conditioned minds
Bent on profits of the day
Seems all will has been
erased
By the rules they will not
break
They're taught to expect
an empty life
Can you blame them
Blinders blocking out all
other direction
Their shattered dreams are
kept in place
By the certainty the routine
always makes them
Follow through with full
intent on keeping up
With those ahead
Trade their lives for endless
races
Awaiting the time their
oppression will end
back
Nothing
Nothing changes in my life
Another day, wasted day
now
Can I get far from this
place
Amuse myself with all these
games
What a lie what a shame
now
There is no more to erase
Can I let go
It must seem I'm lost in
despair
No one beside me all I need
is myself.
Discretion means nothing
when I'm happy this way
I don't want to be a part
on your world anyway
Take in everything, a simple
view it explains you
A comfy chair with no one
there it's safe
So I have myself a simple
mind, to me that's fine
A slower pace I think that
that's the case
It's nothing
My mind's not melting I
think it's helping
To fit the crime
It's what I need to get
me through these days
Nothings changed
back
Up 'Til
Now
Maybe someday you'll be something
But I know I can make it
No regrets until this day,
life couldn't get better for me
No way
Fold up now from what you
speak
I know you think it's all
a waste
I won't turn back `cause
nothing else is true
I try convincing
All you know is your own
way
So you rule me out in assumptions
Go on and say the things
you do
It's comforting to you
I've got everything I need
I am complete, your lifestyle
does nothing for me
Difference of opinions
Tradition is concrete in
your mind
You ride it
Common interest
Still such difference
Between how we live our
lives
You ride it out, you're
missing out
I'm trying hard to leave
a mark
I missed again
I can't give up
It's what I am
It's where I'm at
I give it all
I still get pushed back
At least I try
The things I've seen
I can't complain about the
way it's been
Up `till now
I recognize me
Still you seem blind
To what's inside, you don't
realize
Up `till now
What you're missing
Maybe someday I'll be something
Complaints I won't regret
