Accountability
07:33

I’ve done a lot
I wouldn’t say all
But enough
To make the call
That sometimes
It’s too much
And seeking new thrills
Might be a crutch
What’s going on?
What lay below?
What’s being avoided?
Do I really want to know?
What have I hidden
That I can’t explain
For fear of reliving
Crippling pain?
Something in the shadows
My elephant in the room
Buried in denial
That I don’t want to exhume
Something in the shadows
Something in the shadows
Something in the shadows
Something in the shadows
Something in the shadows
My elephant in the room
Buried in denial
That I don’t want to exhume
Don’t want it around
Remove it from here
Blindly running
Guided by fear
What is it
That you can’t see
That haunts
Your memory
One thing
That won’t let me be
Accountability
Frigid blasts
Smacking my face
Coming to terms
With life in this place
Feels like ice
But I don’t care
It’s only my skin
It’s only air
Below the surface
Cracking the seal
Of reality
Is that what’s real?
The bigger picture
Has lost it’s appeal
Don’t care anymore
Just want to feel
What is it
That you can’t see
That haunts
Your memory
One thing
That won’t let me be
Accountability

Hurt So Bad
04:41

You gotta be kidding me
This must be some kind of joke
What have you been drinking
What did you just smoke
I’m really curious
What’s with your brain
Fabricating the truth
You’ve gone insane
Tell it to yourself
Over and over again
Make it your reality
Blur real and pretend
No one has told you
Nobody’s gotten through
None of this is real
None of this is true
At first we were shocked
At your utter gall
Your brazen lies
Told with no blinks at all
But your shtick has worn thin
And your salad has been tossed
You are a LOSER
You are a loser ‘cause you LOST
You gotta be kidding me
This must be some kind of joke
What have you been drinking
What did you just smoke
I’m really curious
What’s with your brain
Fabricating the truth
You’ve gone insane
This time it’s really gonna hurt
It’s gonna hurt so bad
This time it’s really gonna hurt
Hurt. So. Bad.

We're Fucking Up
03:27
|
|||
Rotten to the core
It’s all broken now
Nothing works anymore
Anyway anyhow
Have we stepped
Over the line?
Are we ruined?
Is everything fine?
I’ve never seen it
Like this before
How much of this can we endure?
Can we grow?
Can we thrive
Or even exist
Just to stay alive
The fallout is
So extreme
Too complex to explain
With a stupid meme
This seems so chaotic
Free of any form
Is this the beginning
Of a new norm?
We’re fucking up!
We’re fucking up!
We’re fucking up!
We’re fucking up!
But we’ll keep on rocking
‘Cause I don’t give a fuck
If you’re thinking that I do
Then I guess you’re out of luck
We’ll keep on rocking
That’s what we gotta do
So come on pretty baby
Let me rock it with you
We’ll keep on rocking
‘Cause I don’t give a fuck
If you’re thinking that I do
Then I guess you’re out of luck
We’ll keep on rocking
That’s what we gotta do
So come on everybody
Let us rock it with you
I’ve never seen it
Like this before
How much of this can we endure?
Can we grow?
Can we thrive
Or even exist
Just to stay alive
Rotten to the core
It’s all broken now
Nothing works anymore
Anyway anyhow
Have we stepped
Over the line?
Are we ruined?
Is everything fine?
We’re fucking up!
We’re fucking up!
We’re fucking up!
We’re fucking up!
But we’ll keep on rocking
‘Cause I don’t give a fuck
If you’re thinking that I do
Then I guess you’re out of luck
We’ll keep on rocking
That’s what we gotta do
So come on pretty baby
Let me rock it with you
We’ll keep on rocking
‘Cause I don’t give a fuck
If you’re thinking that I do
Then I guess you’re out of luck
We’ll keep on rocking
That’s what we gotta do
So come on everybody
Let us rock it with you
Fuck Yeah!
Fuck Yeah!
Fuck Yeah!
Fuck Yeah!

Right Here
03:44
|
|||
Right here in my arms
Is the safest place you could ever be
Because I wanna hold you tight forever
And keep you right here with me
Some people say love at first sight
Is nothing but a silly cliche
But I saw you in my future pretty baby
When I saw you on that very first day
Right here in each others arms
Is a safe haven for you and me
A place on our path together
Fulfilling our destiny
This world can be cold and cruel
A turbulent tiresome affair
But of this one thing you can always be sure
I’me right here and I’ll always be there
Right here in your arms
Is the only place I want to be
Gonna hold you so close to my heart
And keep you right here with me
So many challenges
Will come our way
It won’t always be as easy
As it is today
But the easiest thing I’ll ever have to do
Is to face each day knowing I have you
Right here in my arms
Is the only place you want to be
Gonna hold you in my arms forever
Because you are my sweet baby
Right here in my arms
Right here in my arms
Right here in my arms
Right here in my arms
Here for you
Here for you

Selected

At first this all must seem so unclear
As to why we all have been gathered here
But now the time has come to awaken
And claim all the things from us that have been taken
We are unflappable we shall not be halted
Our drive is unstoppable to high we’ll be vaulted
Our faith can’t be questioned nor our drive
To strive is what it means to be alive
Rejected
Selected
Corrected
Perfected
We have been broken off from the herd
And we shall forever be marching forward
Because we are warriors who see the light
We shall be guided by what we know is right
Rejected
Selected
Corrected
Perfected
Selected
Connected
Projected
Directed
At last the time has come to test our make up
And see if we stand the pressure or break up
Our cause is under siege from all sides
And yet our resiliency allows us to abide
Change is cracking apart our base
Our faith is lacking it’s showing on our face
Stunned revelation of a gross charade
The world is laughing laughing at the fools made of us
Selected
Connected
Effected
Dejected
Selected
Connected
Effected
Dejected

Death and Hope
04:54
|

I remember getting the call
We were all together waiting for you it surprised us all
You were there but you were already gone
You fought a little longer and carried on
We gathered by your side
We held your hand together we cried
You were the best that we could have known
None of us wanted to let you go
Everyday I wanna give you a call
You would always help me make sense of it all
I still see you smile I still know you care
I know that forever you’ll always be there

You Failed
02:19
|
|||
You failed
So magnificently
At living up to the standards
You demand of me
Judgement cast
At the slightest cue
On everybody
But you
You claimed
The highest ground
From there
You stood and looked down
So you could
Take and take and take some more
Then turn around
And align yourself with a snake, you dirty whore
Why is it
When you get your turn
Rights are denied
And cities burn?
Why is it it
When you get your try
So many people
Die?
Why?
You failed , that’s why
You failed
You failed

Ready
05:00
|
|||
I wanna reach out
To all of my friends
Because I can’t wait until
We’re together again
Giving high fives
Turning up loud
Raising our voices
And being a crowd
But for now
I don’t think we’re ready
I’ve got my doubts
I don’t think we’re ready
I’m a private creature
I can be alone
But even I have limits
Limits once unknown
I’m not really sure
How much I can take
I’m getting closer to the limit
I’m getting closer to the break
But for now
I don’t think we’re ready
I’ve got my doubts
I don’t think we’re ready
Hey!
This new normal can suck it
This oppressive trend, I wanna buck it
Running hard losing track of time
I lost all sense of reason and I lost all sense of rhyme
I’m running hard I’m running out of time
I lost my reason I can’t rhyme
I’m running hard I’m running out of time
I lost my reason I can’t rhyme
I’m running hard I’m running out of time
I lost my reason I can’t rhyme
I’m running hard I’m running out of time
I lost my reason I can’t rhyme
We’ll be together soon someday
I’ll greet you with wide open arms
Until then we can just be okay
And keep each other safe from harm
I don’t think we’re ready
Doubts!
I don’t think we’re ready
Doubts!
I don’t think we’re ready
Doubts!
I don’t think we’re ready
Oh maybe one day it’ll all be over
Oh maybe one day it’ll all be over
All be over
Be gone! Get away, be gone!
Get out of here, I want you out of my house
Baby, gotta get away
Be gone
Let it go
Let it go

Here Goes
04:20
|
|||
At first I had reservations
About what I could reveal
I was afraid to be vulnerable
And let you know just how I feel
But I trust you my baby
I know you wouldn’t do me wrong
I said I trust you my baby
I always have all along
So here goes here goes
I’m giving everything to you
Well here goes here goes
That’s what I want to do
Opening up to you
Shouldn’t be so hard to
We’ve been hurt so many times before
We don’t want that pain anymore
But whenever you are near
You chase away all of my fear
I want this moment to never end
I want to share it with you my very best friend
So here goes here goes
I’m giving everything to you
Here goes here goes
That’s what I want to do
Never leave my side
That’s what they always say
But you can do whatever you want
I’ll never stand in your way
I know how I feel
By your sided is the place for me
I’m here for you baby
And I always will be
So here goes here goes
I’m giving everything to you
Well here goes here goes
That’s what I want to do
Well here goes here goes
I’m giving everything to you
Well here goes here goes
That’s what I want to do
Well here goes
Well here goes
Well here goes
Well here goes

Not Fall Down
03:31
|
|||
I wanna keep it simple
Don’t wanna go deep
I don’t like crazy
I don’t like it too steep
I don’t need subtle nuance
To tell how I feel
I’m not changing the world
Or reinvent the wheel
Just trying to live
And not fall down
I don’t feel the need to yield
Or give up any ground
Some people roll over
And take whatever they can
Sometimes I have to go big
Just so I can stand
I’m so tired
Of your subterfuge
Your raining chaos
Is like an utter deluge
You had me off kilter
For just a sec
Here I come now
Here comes a wreck
I wanna keep it simple
I don’t wanna go deep
I don’t like crazy
I don’t like it too steep
Don’t feel the need to yield
Or give up any ground
I’m just trying to live
And not fall down

Coming At Ya
04:12
|
|||
How many times must I ask
For you to halt and hand me that flask
Not saying that I’m proud
But now we’re here
Back on top we conquered the beer
It’s taken hold
We’ve lost control
So watch your back yeah
We’re coming at ya
It’s taken hold
We’ve lost control
So watch your back yeah
We’re coming at ya
Sure it’s true it could worse
Circumstances could be more adverse
It’s not a lie to say we’re in control
Like a convict controls his parole
It’s taken hold
We’ve lost control
So watch your back yeah
We’re coming at ya
It’s taken hold
And we’ve lost control
It’s alright is what we’re told
As the world crumbles and chaos takes hold
For now I’m soaring flying so high
Soon to come crashing and take another try
Reckless is where I’m at
Destructive and dangerous I am that
Just wanna charge and leave a fiery trail
Full power on catastrophic fail
Full commitment to this crooked path
From hero to zero you can do the math
Implosion imminent let’s make a cave
It’s a bed of rubble but it’s better than a grave
Now it’s taken hold
We’ve lost control
So watch your back yeah
We’re coming at ya
It’s taken hold
We’ve lost control
So watch your back yeah
We’re coming at ya
It’s taken hold
We’ve lost control
So watch your back yeah
We’re coming at ya
It’s taken hold
We’ve lost control
So watch your back yeah
We’re coming at ya
It’s taken hold
We’ve lost control
We’re coming at ya
We’re coming at ya
It’s taken hold
We’ve lost control
We’re coming at ya
We’re coming at ya
