Dependence 03:26
Dependence You don’t see the positive side of life You need a reason for happiness The love and hate swells through my veins Yet you don’t see this You feel that’s how life goes on You don’t give me time of my own You place your life into my hands Over one decision Learn to like yourself for what you are Leave the past behind and you’ll go far Only you can live your life And time has almost caught you You must try to take a step on your own The crutch you use is out of patience What is given is so one-sided You needed to know
2.
Box of Culture The violence today Comes from that little box It shows us the way out Of our dead end lives It fills us with vast information All edited for their protection It won’t let us think For ourselves Box of culture Show me life and happiness Box of culture Don’t let me think, control my mind All the news of the world Comes to us each night So do the violent streets To survive you’ve got to fight Day after day We escape form our life To the visions of western culture Coming from that little box Box of culture Show me life and happiness Box of culture Don’t let me think, control my mind
3.
Change 03:05
Change During those times of trouble Precious things become rubble When your mind is in a state When you must obliterate Take control of your own life It’s time for change Only you can make things right Make those changes today The big bad world’s right outside There’s no way to run and hide Make a stand don’t fall down In the past is where the pain belongs Take control of your own life It’s time for change Only you can make things right Make those changes today

War at Home 03:01
War at Home So you’re back from overseas Can’t you see the misery Families are living on the street They have no home and nothing to eat All your promises turn to lies You turn your back and ignore their cries Your feeble programs don’t do much It gives the illusion that you keep in touch Money for the needy goes to military Space for the homeless goes to industry Priorities are all fucked up in the u.s.a. Citizens should run the country That’s the final say During a recession we go to war The guys in the office turn their backs on the poor Maybe the problem has some value Domestic issues have some too Foreign policy is your excuse If it doesn’t make a profit then to you it’s no use The next war might be in your country If you keep ignoring the people’s basic needs
5.
Snap 03:41
Snap Fire and rage burning through my head Pressure building up and feelings of dread Violent visions surging through my brain While adrenaline rushes through my veins You look into my eyes and see that i am gone Somethings got a hold and it won’t let go You try to pull me back But i’m way too far gone I’m gone i’ve gone away i’ve snapped You think that you know someone And they change before your eyes That thing inside of me has fought and it has won It’s turned me into something that you despise The same straw that broke the camels’ back Is the exact same straw that makes people snap I don’t know what’s going through my mind So many thoughts can be unkind Too many things pent up inside It’s way too late for me to confide I’m all torn up on the inside Now you can see through all my lies
6.
Reality 02:59
Reality The dust from your past Sweep it away Under the rug You’ve nowhere to stand When the rug is pulled From under your feet It’s hiding, waiting, and watching It all comes crashing down on you It beats you right into the ground It kicks you when you are down It comes right down on you Everything around you comes unglued There’s no escape no way out There’s not one thing to set you free You can run but you can’t hide Reality is all around ‘till the day you die So fantasize, idealize But then you have to realize That reality is waiting just outside And the scars are too deep to hide In this mad reality
7.
Living With a Grudge Living in the past Keeps us from moving forward No communication will keep it up Until we’re dead Guilt has no sympathy for your tears of regret To live with this is up to us In god’s eyes our lives are set Make the contact it’s up to you You’ve got to do what you’ve got to do When judgement comes were all the same We only have ourselves to blame A petty reasons no reason to hate In meeting with death we all have our dates The travel is easier without the load To swallow our pride we must be bold It’s easier to face tomorrow When yesterday is left behind One is quick to give up When life brings us a bind Without effort nothings done Its up to you to end the grief A civil gesture will bring relief
8.
First Reminisce My past it smiles at me A glimpse of what it used to be A past screaming to see inside The blind intentions of my mind The future so far ahead The past a scroll i’ve read Knowing what used to be And wishing for it back Faces ramble through my head Of all the opportunities i’ve missed Grasping, clutching for it all My ignorance seemed bliss My reminiscing i never had I grasp for to the back of my mind My hoping for a future bright I don’t want to miss out again Go now move on with it It’s too late to go back now Memories planted still remain But there always more to gain
9.
Tomorrow Never Comes Stop and look around Before life passes you by Value each experience Don’t push new ones aside Always look straight ahead Don’t stray in the past Life was meant to live Not to be wasted away Don’t put things off until tomorrow Tomorrow never comes Now is the time Because tomorrow never comes Life goes by so fast Then it fades away All of today’s activities Are tomorrow’s memories When we’re overcome with age We’ll look back upon our youth We only have one life to live Right now we’re making the future
10.
Life's Too Short Never mind what was said In a hundred years we’ll both be dead So live it up have a good time Don’t you know you could be the next in line Life’s too short To think about it think about it Life’s too short The futures never known Life’s too short To think about it think about it Life’s too short To worry about yesterday So you’re girlfriend left you And now you’re life’s a tragedy But then again a year ago You had a different girl between the sheets So take a look at what we’ve said And take a look at wat you’re doing Don’t think about what could of happened Don’t think about what might have been
11.
Narrow Confines So you’ve got the hair And the hardened glare But who the fuck are you trying to scare Is your goal in life to become a jade Or do you really want to bring about change You can’t hang with me Because i’m not a part of your clique Well that’s all right I don’t really give a shit Pain and fear is What i see in your eyes Is it really worth it To go and despise Everything that’s outside The narrow confines Of your mind That group ain’t cool enough The other’s just fucked up There seems no end To your list of reasons why You choose to set Your petty schism aside It looks to me Like you’re just trying to hide
12.
Taking of Innocence Selfish needs overrule them Violate her innocence Be a man even if it scars A moment of weakness at her expense He is evil out for himself At the cost of everything he gets what he wants Heartless lust passion is gone Tears fall in fear all trust is lost Tasting blood tears fall in fear Violate her virgin fear Falling of darkness penetrations near Pain so great penetrations here Torture is over confusion builds up Life has no meaning love does not exist Pray for death to take its toll Pray for death for the taking of innocence
