Track Name: Dreams Fade
There seems to come a time in life where everyone learns to let go. And I can't seem to do this with dry eyes. Because this is everything I've ever loved. There seems to come a time in life where everyone learns to let go. Yeah I know that its worth it and I know that its time for me to move on. But I don't want to give this up. I never thought I'd give it up. And its hard to know where exactly will this road lead. Will all my dreams pass me by and will I be happy? I don't know. But I'll always keep facing forward. Because there's no use looking back. Never let fear keep me from what I want. I'll always listen to what I tell myself. And I always feel passed by in a scene that doesn't care. And if we had our funeral would anybody be there? I watch my dreams fading before my eyes, am I destined for more in this life?
Track Name: On Our Own
What happened to the kid that believed every dream could come true. Believed that everything you worked hard for you would achieve in the end. Believed that everything would always end up right. I can't beleive I let myself lose sight. Have my dreams been shattered? Torn down by reality. Or do I have a lack of ambition? After working everyday I can't hang on myspace every night to convince everyone how cool we are. I won't kiss some ass to play at your festival. These are the things that make me lose hope for a sense of community. I think I expected so much more out of us. And I was let down, I feel so let down. With all the false promises from other bands, always wanting always hold out their hands. But I don't really think they understand that we have no one else we gotta do this all on our own. Have my dreams been shattered? Or just maybe I'm growing up. Realizing I don't need more in life than I already have, I have so much to be proud of.
Track Name: Con Artist
If I made one mistake in this life its that I listened to you. I can't wait for you to hear this song, because you've ripped me off for far too long. You never did a single thing you promised. I've seen so many failures and still your promises are so big. Where do you get off? I can't trust a single thing you say. But the words, they sound so sweet. It sound so good to hear that I wanna believe it. I should have seen it coming by now it seems so obvious. That all the people you care for are still capable of the worst. I gotta keep my head straight and keep this con artist out. False hopes and promises die tonight. I'll leave this world to fend for itself. False hopes and promises die tonight. I can't change this world so I'll take my only option and worry about myself. I feel so ashamed that I let my guard down couldn't see through your lies. The worst part is I know that I'm not the only one. How your life ended up is the revenge I need because you're such a failure.
Track Name: Take Action
When you take no action, what do you expect to happen? Complain about your problems every single day. And do nothing and wonder how it turned out this way. I just don't get it and yeah I dont understand. I put my foot down when things aren't right and never go down without a fight. And then you ask me for all the advice I can give. And then you backstep because when it takes an effort you're nowhere to be found. Get Real. If you're not willing to take the steps, I'm not willing to waste my breath. Because I kinda think that you'd do anything to bring me down to your level. So drown yourself in sorrow and do nothing. Because misery loves company and I'm not your guest this time. Happiness is in front of us. It seems like some of us are to scared to take the leap. No matter how hard it is I'll make the best and strive for happiness.
Track Name: Personal Choice
Fuck these straight edge kids that ruin our names. Treat everyone as if they were lesser because they went straight last week. You don't know what it takes, you don't know what this means. I'll never hate anyone for personal choices that they make. Its not the words that you wanted to hear, I'll stand up I'll say it, somebody fucking needs to. I think I'm wise enough to see a fake in front of my eyes. I see you've practiced writing the X on your hand that means nothing to you. And I know I won't be apart of your kind. I'm still proud to call myself straight edge. And I know its never fucking worth it to judge. Anyone that drinks or smokes or does what they want. I've only ever made this choice for myself.
Track Name: What This Music Means
Keep it simple to get ahead. Am I the only one that has ears or that hears? They play a single note and then they slow it down. Get ready for another breakdown. These are such mediocre songs and yet they soak it up. I just can't believe that this tradition holds. What I wouldn't give for a band that would break the mold. What can I really say I know the music sells. I'm glad that you're doing so well. I'll just keep playing with my heart. I'll never let myself down. I recall having one purpose for a show. Listening to music hanging out with the friends I know. I see you dancing so hard and then you look around. Looking for approval man, you look like a clown. I just can't believe, that this music sells. I just can't believe, that you can fill a room. I just can't believe, that your so full of yourself. I just can't believe, that you have lost sight of what this music means.
Track Name: Screaming Voices
I know I hate it sometimes too but, these screaming voices, they still sound so beautiful to me. I still love this music and it still makes me feel passion. Despite all the generic bands, fashionable kids, and flavors of the week. We talk about the same issues and we're still fed up. With all the same bullshit, I don't know the answer.
Track Name: Things Unsaid
This is the only thing I've ever wanted, don't take it away. My heart beats for this dream it means too much to me. To watch you walk away and steal the best years of life that I've ever had. No, I can't just let you go. And ruin everything we've worked at for so many years. And everything just feels so different. From when we were younger and we felt the same. I wonder what could've changed. I know we have tempers and maybe I'm to blame. For letting this all get out of hand. Far too long things unsaid. For far too long things unsaid have left their mark, and made us grow apart. I want nothing more than to have you right here standing next to me. But I refuse to hold you back if its not your dream. I've sacrificed so many things just to take a shot. I'm still willing even if your not. I've sacrificed so many things just to take a shot at this. I can't force anything that you don't want, and I don't want to have to let you go but fuck it.
Track Name: Keep Playing For Love
Take me back to when this all meant so much more. When there wasn't a new band everyday playing the same garbage I hear from every single band. Following the format set in the past and they eat it up. But I still feel we're stepping backwards, when all you care about is fitting in. To me hardcore always pushes against the grain and I don't ever want to be the same. I can't, I refuse. I pour my heart out but it doesn't matter because these kids, well, they come and go. Theres many times when its hard to keep pushing on. But I'll just do what I've always done. Keep playing for myself and nobody else. Stop worrying at shows about reactions we get. Because the truth is we've never made a single dime. Put the money into merch every single time. Keep paying out of pocket for an out of state show. This is all I have this is all I've ever known. Keep playing from heart, Keep playing for love.
Track Name: Stepping Stone
Who the hell are you and where did you come from? I want the person back that I knew for so many years. But by your actions that person is long gone. Quitting is the easy way but I won't take that path. I'll take this one day at a time. Leave it all in the past but I'll remember this pain and struggle made me who I am today. So I'll take this one day at a time, never look at my life with regret. Everyday is a stepping stone, a lesson. Of who you truly are. I never thought we'd end this way. I can't wait to move on from this place. Then I'll never have to see your face again.
