![[SHOW HALL BOUND]](images/showhallbound.gif)

I go to the show only to have a good time
I go to dance and leave my worries behind
Troubles arise and someone throws their weight around
Good times turn into violent excitement and someone goes down
Someone always goes down
No good reasons but the tensions always arise
To no surprise everyone's tempers are tried
It's so hard to believe there's little unity to be found
In such a small town the show hall is so violence bound
It's so violence bound
Why can't we all see it just as rock'n'roll
Instead of this secured underground fashion show
Listen to the bands and just enjoy the sound
Instead of starting shit now I know I'm show hall bound
Why can't we all see it just as rock'n'roll
Instead of this secured underground fashion show
Listen to the bands and just enjoy the sound
Instead of starting shit now I know I'm show hall bound
Put all your worries and your conflicts aside
Get it together and swallow your pride
Things have got to change before the whole thing goes to hell
Practice diversity or just don't show up at all
No don't you show up at all
Why can't we all see it just as rock'n'roll
Instead of this secured underground fashion show
Listen to the bands and just enjoy the sound
Instead of starting shit now I know I'm show hall bound
Why can't we all see it just as rock'n'roll
Instead of this secured underground fashion show
Listen to the bands and just enjoy the sound
Instead of starting shit now I know I'm show hall bound
Put all your wars aside, Put all your wars aside, Put
all your wars aside
Leave them behind
Put all your wars aside, yeah leave them behind
This is our place, this is no place for your state of mind
We're fed up and not going to stand for it anymore
Watching all the shows turn into personal wars
Too many come with the intentions of watching someone fall
So if you don't come for the music just don't come at all
Just don't come at all
Put all your wars aside, Put all your wars aside, Put
all your wars aside
Leave them behind
Put all your wars aside, leave them behind, put all your wars aside
Leave them behind

![[DISASTER]](images/disaster.gif)

Don't you recognize it's money in their eyes
The money's like this poison and the music slowly dies
They got it all set up like this so the bands they can't exist
They'll promise you everything they'll promise you'll get big
It's a rock and roll rock and roll disaster
It's a rock and roll money making scheme
They go through you to make it faster
It's a rock and roll rock and roll disaster
It's a rock and roll money making scheme
They go through you to make it faster
There's no place in this music for them
This is music not a trend when will they learn that
There's no place in this music for greed
But with the industry that's the way it seems
There's no place in this music for them
This is music not a trend when will they learn that
There's no place in this music for greed
But with the industry that's the way it seems
There's no place in this music for them
This is music not a trend when will they learn that
There's no place in this music for greed
Well it's just the way it seems
Don't you recognize it's money in their eyes
The money's like this poison and the music slowly dies
They got it all set up like this so the bands they can't exist
They'll promise you everything they'll promise you'll get big
It's a rock and roll rock and roll disaster
It's a rock and roll money making scheme
They go through you to make it faster
It's a rock and roll rock and roll disaster
It's a rock and roll money making scheme
They go through you to grab it faster
Call it crazy but it isn't the way
They promise you everything and there's nothing you can say
It's finally time you see to read between the lines
And pay no attention to their money grubbing lies
And the greed won't stop
Until you fall to your knees
It's a rock and roll rock and roll disaster
It's a rock and roll money making scheme
They go through you to make it faster
It's a rock and roll rock and roll disaster
It's a rock and roll money making scheme
They go through you to grab it faster
Call it crazy but it isn't the way
They'll leave you with nothing and there's nothing you can say
It's finally time to read between the lines
And start ignoring their money grubbing lies
No the greed won't stop
Until you fall to your knees
There's no place in this music for them
This is music not a trend when will they learn that
There's no place in this music for greed
But with the industry that's the way it seems
There's no place in this music for them
This is music not a trend when will they learn that
There's no place in this music for greed
Well this is just the way it seems

So far so far away from home -Yeah right

You're on the streets you're all alone
Begging for change just go back home
Begging for change it ain't much fun
Take it from me kid you're spoiled and you're young
You're on the streets you're all alone
Give me a break just go back home
Begging for change it ain't much fun
You gotta take it from me kid you're spoiled and you're young

![[TENDENCIES]](images/tendencies.gif)

He's broke and he's out of work
His girlfriend left him for some other jerk
He doesn't know why things went so sour
But now he's off to happy hour
Every morning it's another hangover
He couldn't face the day if he were sober
Bills piling up along with the returnables
It's building up it's nearing it's cold
Why do things have to be like this
Why does everything have to be just like this
Why does everything have to be this way
Be this way
Why does everything have to be this way
He wants some change
He thinks he is a victim of circumstances
He pushed it away he had plenty of chances
His friends had asked him to choose
He chose to ignore the truth
Every morning it's another hangover
He couldn't face the day if he were sober
Bills piling up along with the returnables
It's building up it's building and it's cold
Trusting oh so trusting in a past that never was
Believing in a trust that's long been lost
Breaking all the promises that he made to himself
It wasn't his fault he made his own life a living hell
Breaking down there's no one left to confide in
Drink it down there's no one left and he said
Why do things have to be like this
Why does everything have to be just like this
Why does everything have to be this way
Be this way
Why does everything have to be this way
He wants some change
He's a victim of circumstances
He pushed it away he had plenty of chances
His friends had asked him to choose
He chose to ignore the truth
He doesn't want to think no more
So he heads to the nearest liquor store
He wonders when his life will end
He got time it's not over yet
It's become such a part of his life
He couldn't give it up no it wouldn't be right
Where can he go from here
He can go anywhere just one more beer
Why do things have to be like this
Why does everything have to be just like this
Why does everything have to be this way
Be this way
Why does everything have to be this way
He wants some change

![[WE CAN]](images/wecan.gif)

You know you can do with less
You know we're trying we're trying our best
You call us ignorant youth
Why don't you just face up to the truth
We can we can
Wooooaaaaah
We can we can
Wooooaaaaah
There's always another shoe to fill
It's going to get you in the end
It's going to get you still
You know we've got another shoe to fill
Well I don't think you realize
It's how you live that I despise
What do you think those are really your rights
Pass it on to your kids and duplicate your life
We can we can
Wooooaaaaah
We can we can
Wooooaaaaah
Get up the nerve to make a stand
Make another move and they make another plan
Get up the nerve to make another plan
Get up, we can
Go on, and duplicate your life
You know there's always another shoe to fill
It's going to get you in the end
It's going to get you still
Get up the nerve to make a stand
Make another move and they make another plan
Get up the nerve to make another plan
Well I don't think you realize
It's how you live that I despise

![[NO MORE]](images/nomore.gif)

No more
American Dream is not what it seems
He's got this place in a cardboard box
He wanders the streets wondering where he went wrong
He's got his place and a little dog
And he gathers his dinner while singing his song
No more no more
Our American Dream it's no fucking dream
I don't want to grow up just to make you lots of money
No I don't see any reason
All this shit that's stuck in your head
You've got to stop your American Dreaming
Stop the American Dreaming
No more
American dream is not what it seems
He's got this place in a high rise building
controlling everything with the push of a button
Then someplace he hears the man's song
It's so real but it doesn't touch him
No more no more
Our American Dream it's no fucking dream
I don't want to grow up just to make you lots of money
No I don't see any reason
All this shit that's stuck in your head
You've got to stop your American Dreaming
Stop the American Dreaming
All right let's go
No more no more
No more
No more
American dream is not what it seems
What for what for
In God you trust in greed you lust
There's a hell in both of these worlds
And it won't stop because the greed is a must
No more no more
Our American Dream it's no fucking dream
I don't want to grow up and make you lots of money
No I don't see any reason
All this shit that's stuck in your head
You've got to stop your American Dreaming
Stop the American Dreaming
No more American Dreams
All right

![[REPUTATION]](images/reputation.gif)

The need for acceptance, the need to play that role
How much time do you really have to be digging yourself another hole
Doing what you think it takes you forget what really
matters
Doing everything in your power just to climb that social ladder
You forget to believe in yourself that's your first mistake
When are you going to realize you're just a fucking fake
The need for acceptance, the need to play that role
How much time do you really have to be digging yourself another hole
The people you look up to know exactly what's going
on here
They've been playing that game, but they've been playing it longer
The people you look up to know exactly what's going on here
They've been playing this game, but they've been playing it longer
Doing what you think it takes you forget what really
matters
Doing everything in your power to climb that social ladder
You forget to believe in yourself that's your first mistake
When are you going to realize you're just a fucking fake
Your acceptance is your responsibility, your reputation
is your disability
The need for acceptance, the need to play that role
How much time do you really have to be digging yourself another hole

![[ANOTHER LINE]](images/anotherline.gif)

Right
Right let's go
Where does it come from
A voice from deep inside
Why not take a listen
It's just another line another line
We fall victim to our pitfalls
We fall victim to our pride
What and who's at fault
It's just another line another line
Right
Right
It's about time
Oh it's about time let's go
It's about time
Oh it's about time let's go
It's about time
About time to go
It's about time we said
Let's go
Opportunity lost
'Cause we're so fucking blind
Why not just open your eyes
It's just another line another line
We fall victim to our weaknesses
and we're weakened by the lie
On what's and who's at fault
It's just another line another line
Right here we go
Right
Right let's go
Where does it come from
A voice from deep inside
Why not take a listen
It's just another line another line
We fall victim to our pitfalls
We fall victim to our pride
What and who's at fault
It's just another line another line
Right
Right
It's about time
Oh it's about time let's go

Opportunity lost
'Cause we're so fucking blind
Why not just open your eyes
It's just another line another line
We fall victim to our weaknesses
and we're weakened by the lie
On what's and who's at fault
It's just another line another line
Right

![[NO TRUST]](images/notrust.gif)

Knocked down I slowly realize exactly what I've lost
I've come to recognize there are so few that I can trust
I try to get away as far away as I can
It's time to take suggestion it's time to make my stand
I can't trust you I can't trust you
Betrayed for the last time only now I know the cost
'Cause when you spit on me I know I've not lost
I try to get away as far away as I can
It's time to take suggestion it's time to make my stand
Knocked down I slowly realize exactly what I've lost
I've come to recognize there are so few that I can trust
I try to get away as far away as I can
It's time to take suggestion it's time to make my stand
To make my stand
Betrayed for the last time
It's time to take suggestion it's time to make my stand
It's time to take suggestion it's time to make my stand
I can't trust you I can't trust you
No

![[FRESH CUT]](images/freshcut.gif)

You want to be slick
You want to be hard
It's all new and it's going to be the end of you
Always in the past
You've always been last
Now there's something new
And it's going to kick your ass
Treading through deep waters
there is nothing you can do to keep you dry
Treading through deep waters
there is nothing you can do to keep you dry
Too much like a game with your checkered flag
Too much like a trend with your suit of plaid

![[SUSPECT DEVICE is by STIFF LITTLE FINGERS. Go ask Sparky for the lyrics, 'cuz I don't know them.]](images/suspectdevice.gif)

Sorry about that...

![[OLD DAYS]](images/olddays.gif)

Getting on a level with you
It's not easy to do
When I remember the boy I once was
back and forth with the impossible
Imagination nearly dead
All these things fucking my head
Things to do and bills to pay
Oh how I miss how I miss these old days
Getting on a level with you
Is not easy to do
But when it happens I see the boy I once was
Back and forth with the impossibel
Imagination nearly dead
All these things are fucking my head
Work to do and bills to pay
Oh how I miss how I miss those old days

![[IT WON'T STOP]](images/itwontstop.gif)

Sitting alone in an empty room 'cause I got no place to go
Staring out of a broken window with an ainxious feeling I will never
show
No it won't stop it won't stop
Because the voice rage still remains
It won't stop it won't stop stop stop
Complacent again remains feeling unchanged
Scoping out the future paths
Nothing is certain
Remaining confusion
Is it really worth it
Well it seems like a game
That I've tried to play
I get nothing
And nothing has changed
A complelling urge to overcome the desire to settle
for the ordinairy
A justification is just an excuse another reason to be lazy
No it won't stop it won't stop
Because the voice rage still remains
It won't stop it won't stop stop stop
Complacent again remains feeling unchanged
Scoping out the future paths
Nothing is certain
Remaining confusion
Is it really worth it
Well it seems like a game
That I've tried to play
I get nothing
And nothing has changed
I tried so hard to see it their way
But I keep coming back to the same then back again
Going in circles has it beaten me
Near-sighted corrupted beings forced ideology
Dated view of what they are
Confused not saying what they thought
It's so hard to look beyond everything seems like a
joke
Reality is conformity I'm searching for another way out
No it won't stop it won't stop
Because the voice rage still remains
It won't stop it won't stop stop stop
Complacent again remains feeling unchanged
Scoping out the future paths
Nothing is certain
Remaining confusion
Is it really worth it
Well it seems like a game
That I've tried to play
I get nothing
And nothing has changed

![[WASTE AWAY]](images/wasteaway.gif)

Grab a Dr. Pepper and a pack of smokes
I sit on the steps and I dream of my hopes
All these things I have forgot
Some eighteen birthday wishes
I can't remember a single one
They're all but gone
They're wasted away
They're all but gone
They're gone today
I'm going to waste away
