Anthem
solidarity culture and a common belief our community strong and out minds are free pride and brotherhood and unity positive outlook and a sense of idenity those who walk blindly through a fools paradise will fill their bellies but remain hungry false promises of a better life are just shit rat race ideology the hand we're biting is the hand that feeds us false nourishment made sugar sweet to mask the bitter taste of its rotting greed it's time we stand up and let our presence be known it's time we spoke out and let our voices be heard
One to Blame
temperatures rise when you roll your eyes i can see that you're angry with me we got our lives you got yours and i got mine so why's the finger always pointed at me i'm always the one you have to lay shame on enough is enough i'm going to place the blame on you and it's not to late for you to say i'm sorry and we can still be friends and it's not to late for you to say i'm sorry but if you do it again well then it's to fucking late and you're the one to blame.
Hatefully Ever After
we're breeding out hatred generation upon generation of short fused frustrated violent and self destructive behavior i'm pleading with every beat my heart is bleeding the issues that's pressing why haven't we learned out lesson open your eyes your heart open your mind we are one stand together brother against brother there's a million excuses to hate each other so peace and unity won't come so easily i'm part of you you're part of me yet we still struggle who will hear our plea
Wounds Heal, Scars Remain
afraid and alone in the corner she cries wipes the blood form her lips and the tears from her eyes her body and heart have been broken and bruised in cycle of abuse that's nothing new she looks in the mirror she used to feel beautiful all that has been taken away wounds heal but scars remain objectified dehumanized
Slipping Away
i've been drinking and i've been down for far to long and i've been thinking where my homes and dreams have gone you see some people my friends mostly tell me that i'm lost so lost you have no right to judge me until you've walked a mile in my shoes until you've seen the world through my eyes until you've lived my life
The Hand That Feeds
roads paved by progress lead to the final days cold steel and concrete stifle and suffocate overpopulation and still we procreate our race our mother is dying man is the problem proposes no solution defile all that's scared no savior no salvation we've broken the air the water and the soil the end result is a system that can no longer support life how many selfish mistakes is mankind allowed to make before out home has been laid to waste
Everyday
guess i'll never understand, what brought you to this end, but i've never met anyone quite like you, yes, you always were my friend, everyday. say a prayer for you. shed a tear for you. wish you only knew, how much i care for you, memories of you are with me everyday. Friends to the end, friends to the end. everyday i say a prayer for you. shed a tear for you. wish you only knew. how much i care for you. memories of you are with me everyday.
In This Together
this time i'm gonna try to open up my eyes and see it doesn't matter who's right because that's what separating you and me believe me, it's safe to see that someones gotta give. we're in this together but we don't see eye to eye.
Sink or Swin
freedom and peace are buried so deep i am digging in the sand and the tide keeps rolling in washing over my head signal distress is there anyone who will hear this s.o.s. stand attention and fall in line existing nine to five then do it all again. motivation instant gratification then piss it all away one chance it's either sink or swim it seems no chance i'd rather drown than learn to swim.
Little League
to enforce the laws that keep our nation great with god on their side and a gun at their waist use any means that's necessary. boys in blue uniforms playing little league military we have the right to live in fear remain silient or be silienced. proud defenders of justice and liberty. who'll defend us from the police?
Waiting for Nothing to Change
through consumption of material it seems we're posessing nothing seduced by greed we've hung ourselves from a power tie where's the living in that life their sugar coated candy complacency has left us nowhere where's the line that's separating us from them we've become them we've tried but we won't fail this time. to rise against those that beat us down or will we wait until they've taken everything? it's time for action so take action now while we're waiting. time is wasting while we're waiting for nothing to change.
Price of Freedom
mother/father told me the best things in life are free but you can't afford to entertain that thought so i learned that nothing in life is free unless nobody else wants it, can't break free from wage slavery so we pay the price, day after day.
My boyfriend is in a band, "boxingwater", they're actually very good, they have a record deal and everything. I decided I would post the lyrics to a few of their songs on here because they are very good lyrics that many of you might be able to relate to. If you want to check out his band, the URL is: http://www.boxingwater.com
