Intro/True Til 21
01:33
|
|||
It was an oath you said you'd stick to
the one thing that still held true
you were wide awake to the world around you
you were all the drug free youth
now years have passed
and you have changed
you are no longer straight and alert
your mind was changed
your will was turned
and our faith in you
has been hurt
True til 21 you fuckin fake
shouldn't have drawn the X for your own sake
knew you were full of shit right from the start
you never had the will, you never had the heart
I'm not nailed to the X
I never claimed to be
straight edge is not the oath
that keeps me free

Assimilate
00:47
|

Leave your dignity at the door
and prepare for assimilation
briefcase in hand, emotion lost forever
climb the ladder, make the grade
Kiss some ass so you'll get paid
function
decay
assimilate
Become the gears that run the machine
afraid to face yourself
a mirror-imaged upper-classmen
a runner up for chief exec.

Bury The Hatchet
01:43
|
|||
I have no forgiveness
for someone who stole
so many years from me
and you'll never
endure the pleasure
of seeing me scared
because I've learned that...
Your bite
will never
live up to your bark
So let's bury the hatchet in their fucking skulls
show them all its not that simple
show them the receiving end was so much worse
Yeah I'll bury the hatchet
when the sun has set
on your final day
when your last breath
is drawn and released
when you've finally realized that forgiveness is more than just a word

Stuck
00:36
|
|||
All alone
feeling useless
on my own
trapped inside of me
started a fight
with no opponent
lost control
now I'll never be free
of this feeling
of being useless
but its all inside of me
sleepless tonight
just like tomorrow
this routine
is getting old to me
can't control
I'll have to borrow
can't decide
what I want to be
But I'd rather spit into the wind
and fuck myself than cheat to win
I'll drag my feet until the day I die
there's no reason why
(Lyrics by Don Harris)

Clenched Teeth
02:22
|
|||
It used to be just music, fun and games
now I just sit and watch the silence eat my soul
some say that if I'd just lighten up...
but what the fuck do they know?
(forgotten lyrics)
Worry not
its not as if my heart
isn't torn to shreds
anyway
Blood boiling at the drop of a hat
but what do I have to be (forgotten lyrics)
like maybe the last time
I heard you laugh
or the fact that you're all still around
I'm sorry but I guess I'm destined to stay pissed off and bitter

Blader Impaler
01:19
|

Getting in our way
at the parks
we respond
with crude remarks
lame ass shit
intruding on our land
I won't be the one
to lend you a hand
Blades and boards can never co-exist
if it comes down to it we'll respond with fists
Rainbow Brites
and Misty Flips
take you out
at the hips
we get busted by the pigs
as you roll by
arrested for laws
you also defy
Here is our cry
for skater redemption
we must put an end
to this blader convention
