We could develop a new way of thinking To disempower the pain inside Locked up so long Wasting away Feeling a longing and never knowing When we would start to believe We could call this living Locked up so long Wasting away Feeling a longing and never knowing How this would end Let us start to believe We're not alone we have each other This time don't throw it all away We're not alone we have each other Not gonna waste another day We're not alone we have each other Reach out and give yourself away We're not alone we have each other Opening up and reaching out Open up, reaching out We define the value of life With a system so flawed Set aside the cycles and strife A template to survive Overshadows a beautiful dance That moves on when we die When this body meets the soil Still the atoms resonate Still the atoms keep on moving Still the atoms resonate

Bitch fest, total mess I'm gonna milk that goat 'til it kicks my head Hanging out with the butterflies I never get nervous and I don't know why I'm gonna be what I'm gonna be Even if it turns out a catastrophe Pennies saved 'til you fill up your urn Chew the virus and feel the burn We'll bring them all down Down People people everywhere People people never care What if we've got so much time? Turkey in the cart and time to grind People see what they wanna believe You gotta open up your heart and let yourself see We'll bring them all down We're gonna bring them fucking down We're gonna bring 'em down I know what I need What I'll be What I'm here for I know what I need What I'll be What I'm fucking doing here I know what I need What I'll be What I'm here for Yeah

Caring Song 02:50
So much talk with little response I'm not sure if you're hearing Creeping thoughts have started to haunt Guess I'll talk to myself Whisked away Brazen, lazy, misplaced joy Shut in and terrified, useless boy Beating yourself up, lick the wounds Beating yourself up and trusting too soon It's a state of mind to neglect what we love It's a waste of time to regret what we've done Listen closely, write it all down Down Sinking slowly, no words Don't make a sound I don't care what you say and You don't care what I say and We don't care what they say and They don't care what we say I care what you don't say I care what you don't see I care what you don't do I care what you don't be I

Better War 02:59
We tend to bicker, we tend to whine We carry on for years like we've got plenty of time World explodes, episodes Text your gods and let 'em know "I deserve better, I deserve more" Misheard prayers and mixed up thoughts I'm not a scholar, I'm just a man I got a feeling there's so much we don't understand World explodes, episodes Text your gods and let 'em know "I deserve better, I deserve more" Misheard prayers and mixed up thoughts We need a better war Not like the one we've fought so long We need a better war Aiming our thoughts upon ourselves We need a better war Turns out we don't really need, really need We need a better war We've been through so much shit You think we'd learn from it We need a better war Not like the one we've fought so long We need a better war Aiming our thoughts upon ourselves We need a better war Turns out we don't really need war Don't Need War

Thinking of truth and times that I've lied Mostly to self but maybe, don't know Reach into heart and make a good noise Move into Self and make it sound bigger, better Wouldn't you like to know what you're like To all those who don't have to be you? Wouldn't you like a cookie or Sprite? Some kind of gift for all you've done Coming to ya Make your shirt into a basket (Maybe if I scream loud I'll explode) Stockpile every tender morsel Sometimes you've gotta sit And inquire seriously Ask yourself those burning questions Everyone's too scared to say: What is it like as a broom or a mop? What have you learned how to cook in your life? What if you weren't such a dumb piece of shit? What if I died and the world turned out better, better? Make your bed into a casket (Maybe if I scream loud I'll explode) Worms think you're a tender morsel They're all feeding now They're all feeding now We're gonna drop this down 'Cause on a somewhat serious note We've got a lot to change And little time to do it in I've spent a pretty huge chunk of my life Listening to protest songs Meanwhile, I've been punching a clock A good cog, a citizen I guess the fear of not providing for my family Was a hidden shame I never wanted to feel So I worked today and I'll do it tomorrow And at night I'll write songs about change I will not participate in your system of hate I will wait until the time is right But inaction breeds the pain You and I have claimed to loathe Will we ever make the move ourselves? Yeah
