Push me straight down, last day next round
Talking back without much sense
Soapbox rants, half-used antics
Talking back just fed up with abuse
Too much before, can’t feel it anymore
Your hurtful words ignore me

You said it once before
Time and time again
What do you think makes us the best of friends?
Try so hard
Fought, bit, plead
Living through your hell, ears are bleeding

Built on tough ground, never gonna break down
Pain and pleasure blocked for good
Too much emotion felt, killed by inner self
Pushed towards something vague, destructive
Built up defense, back against the fence
Fighting makes me go recluse

You said it once before
Time and time again
What do you think makes us the best of friends?
Try so hard
Fought, bit, plead
Living through your hell, ears are bleeding

Stand tall stand proud
Built walls, break down!

No luck, don’t give a fuck
Another victim lack of trying
I pier around, nothing left to give
Everyday our freedom’s killed
Trust me, not likely
Politician’s built by greed
Dark thoughts, darker dreams
Can’t you see just what I mean?

I’m trying, I’m pleading
Fight your way, forget the bleeding
Push back, pull through
All the eyes are placed on you
Too much for one man’s brain to convert you
Find it in yourself to make sure you make do

Fight your own war, can’t keep the fucking score
Line the higher-ups pockets with green
Voices yelling, voices screaming in my head
Can’t you see we’re forced by necessity for democracy…

No luck, don’t give a fuck
Another victim lack of trying
I pier around, nothing left to give
Everyday our freedom’s killed
Trust me, not likely
Politician’s built by greed
Dark thoughts, darker dreams
Can’t you see just what I mean?

Fight your own war, can’t keep the fucking score
Line the higher-ups pockets with green
Voices yelling, voices screaming in my head
Can’t you see we’re forced by necessity for democracy…

Time is running out, nothing’s gone your way
Take a look at yourself, tell me who’s to blame?
Find out you don’t know yourself
And you don’t have nobody else

I got nothing left
Save your breath, ‘cause I’m the one to fucking blame
Got nothing left
Bitching, fucking whining… Wastes away the timing…

Something’s in the way
Something’s gotta give

Don’t need, nothing, don’t need, nothing left (x4)

Life done with straight face
Don’t know if I can take it anymore
Used up all my friends, to the bitter end
Now I’m labeled a fucking bore

I got nothing left
Save your breath, ‘cause I’m the one to fucking blame
Got nothing left
Bitching, fucking whining… Wastes away the timing…

Something’s in the way
Something’s gotta give

Don’t need, nothing, don’t need, nothing left (x4)

Thoughts and lives taken loosely
Context broken, meaning forgotten
Too much commotion in perception
Too much thinking not knowing
Compromising everything to make sure
You don’t falter back there
Hindsight leads to show us that
We don’t even fucking care!

Think clearly (lines bleed red)
Clouded ideals (lines bleed red)
Blurred together (lines bleed red)
Lines bleed red, break down

Why don’t we fight against what
We see as a common enemy?
Respect and ideals are two words
That are always taken so lightly
Choices that are made
Decisions that were due
Senseless shit is carried on
Why do we do the things
Affected everyday by the clueless

Think clearly (lines bleed red)
Clouded ideals (lines bleed red)
Blurred together (lines bleed red)
Lines bleed red, break down

LINES BLEED RED

Think clearly (lines bleed red)
Clouded ideals (lines bleed red)
Blurred together (lines bleed red)
Lines bleed red, break down

You think because you don’t have everything you’re fucking nothing
Take a minute, look at yourself, figure out you’ll make due
Don’t think what you are right now will affect you in the outcome
Just push ahead, battle through, till you get what you think is due

Can’t cheat it, can’t nudge it, it’s set in stone for you
(Live your life)You can’t change it, it’s the hand your dealt with

Problems come, solutions go don’t worry things aren’t always good
You think there’s always something pushing back when you get through

Can’t cheat it, can’t nudge it, it’s set in stone for you
(Live your life)You can’t change it, it’s the hand your dealt with

Nothing’s forever, pull through we’re going together, tomorrow’s another day (x3)
Nothing’s forever, pull through we’re going together, tomorrow’s another day (x2)

White collar boy now, you think you’re moving up
Taking names, collecting contacts,
Playing in the bigger game
You’re a bigshot now, I’ll always be the same

That’s right – white collar job, you’re thinking clearly
That’s right – being thought of as the authority
That’s right – money makes things happen to each other
That’s right – can’t go back to hardcore motherfucker

Rolodex, shiny new Ferraris,
Makes you think you’ve made it big time
I got none of that, don’t even feel that bad
Hardcore’s put me someplace that feels good

That’s right – white collar job, you’re thinking clearly
That’s right – being thought of as the authority
That’s right – money makes things happen to each other
That’s right – can’t go back to hardcore motherfucker

Money doesn’t make you something, it’s inside that counts

White collar boy now, you think you’re moving up
Taking names, collecting contacts,
Playing in the bigger game
You’re a bigshot now, I’ll always be the same

Step up and listen – listen straight
Too many things are fighting you
Gotta block them out, can’t think about
All the things that they promise you
Forget about how good it sounds (it’s not for you)
Remember how it’s been played before (just pay your dues)

Stand up! Don’t back down!
What you think is what you gotta do
Stand up! Don’t back down!
What’s the point to change yourself to get through?

Push aside the waste – go straight
In your head is where the problem lies
Try not to think about it, don’t mess with it
Destroying ideals with all of their stupid shit
Rather make myself not a target (stand against)
Rather make myself better from the start (fight for it)

Stand up! Don’t back down!
What you think is what you gotta do
Stand up! Don’t back down!
What’s the point to change yourself to get through?

All I can do is try [back to the basics](x2)

Stand up! Don’t back down!
What you think is what you gotta do
Stand up! Don’t back down!
What’s the point to change yourself to get through?

Facing all my enemies
Put to the test, let the blind see (one against another)
What’s the point? Why bother?
You just find somebody else (one against another)
Accusations and choice words
Don’t you see they cannot hurt me (one against another)
Gonna step to it? Just think a bit
It’s not always so black and white

So you think you’re gonna defeat me?
Push me down, seems so easy
Guess what? I’ll stand against (make my stand)
Fight back without any reason
To provoke or complicate feelings
Learning by making same mistakes against the world

Facing all my enemies
Put to the test, let the blind see (one against another)
What’s the point? Why bother?
You just find somebody else (one against another)
Accusations and choice words
Don’t you see they cannot hurt me (one against another)
Gonna step to it? Just think a bit
It’s not always so black and white

One against – against another (x3)

Push me, stand against me (one against another)
Push me, stand against me (one against another)
Push me, stand against me (one against another)
Push me, pushed back

So you think you’ve lost yourself without nothing
Do you think without anything you’ll never be something
Don’t lose face, just think straight, never back down when things fall apart

Can’t break it, you ain’t lost it all
Can’t give up, you’ll never take the fall
Make yourself into something, someone else you just can’t deal with
Why does your action make up the whole truth?
Why does all of this get inside of you?

So you think you’ve lost yourself without nothing
Do you think without anything you’ll never be something
Don’t lose face, just think straight, never back down when things fall apart

Hindsight only 20/20 if you think all of us are grading you
You think of all your actions but why do we do them all for you…

The struggle’s had, yourself to blame,
Once you learn it the knowledge is gonna stay
Piece yourself together, take it all apart,
Shove it in the back ,don’t you fucking start
Take a freebie turn, just get outta jail,
The lesson learned is to stick with it, you cannot fail

So you think, with all that you’ve done
You can make it, you can’t fall apart
Take the pieces, just learn the rules
The lesson taught will be ignore the world…

Well the lesson’s learned is that you gotta cope
Well the lesson’s learned is that you got hope
With your wits at hand, you can face it, look it in the eye and say change it
You got to keep on fighting, trying and making the whole difference count
Well the lesson’s learned to the very end
When all you got to count on is your friends
Climb up to the top, don’t you ever stop
You are the one that knows your own
   That knows your own…

Don’t give in, don’t back down
Push into the corner and fight back fight back
You got the upper hand, but I’ll make the moral stand
They dropped the ball and we picked it up, we got control

No you won’t force my hand, I won’t compromise
Against all odds, I’ll fight and survive
You turn your back to me
Forced me on my knees
Threw away all the things that kept you on top

Don’t give in, don’t back down
Push into the corner and fight back fight back
You got the upper hand, but I’ll make the moral stand
They dropped the ball and we picked it up, we got control

    …and it’s are time to use it…

Pull through / Face front
You’ve lost and now you’re through
Face front / Look back
You’re defense, I’m on the attack
Look back / Last chance
You think I’m going fucking blind
Last chance / Can’t break
The X’s on my hands are simply mine

Defeat by my hands
Broke down, lost again – lost the struggle
Clear thinking, whole again – lost the struggle

Lose the will to live
Lose the will to face it
Second glance and make a start
On first moves, and first words
Glue it together to reconstruct your life

Defeat by my hands
Broke down, lost again – lost the struggle
Clear thinking, whole again – lost the struggle

So you’ve admitted defeat
Torn from soiled hands
With one blind eye, figuring in lost time
Put together
Better left on
Better days with
Clearer endings
Your heart has fallen
Your mind is clouded
My eyes are screaming
My mouth is seeing
   lost the struggle

   Just fight back!
Push yourself on top of… them all
Push back who walks on… all of you
Change yourself to suit in all… just break through

What you stood for, you backed up
With attack plans, against the oppression
They all stood against
Fought and schemed
To bring you down and
You braved the violence
You held the only positive
The uphill battle’s taking all the wind but you’ll still make it through

Fit the pieces – make yourself be heard
You can and will make the difference
Fit the pieces – share what you’ve learned
Tell them that you aren’t the victim

Built up by the 2% that own the world
They want to keep you down, force you to do their dirty work
But you just can’t sit there
Expect that you’ll be left alone
You gotta fight the battles
You gotta face the overlords

Fit the pieces – make yourself be heard
You can and will make the difference
Fit the pieces – share what you’ve learned
Tell them that you aren’t the victim

   Just fight back!
Push yourself on top of… them all
Push back who walks on… all of you
Change yourself to suit in all… just break through
