Pushed to the Edge
01:36
|

Limits of the human mind
Pushed to the edge another time
Silence blares as my skin crawls
Sit and stare at empty walls
Beaten down and all alone
Stuck inside this vacant home
I won’t leave and nothing helps
I’ll have to think of something else
By myself
I live a lie I can no longer live
I give away more than I can give
Loss of identity, defeating self
Withdraw from family and ignore my health
I need some help but can’t afford
I try to change but nothing works
Made some mistakes and can’t go back
A stress induced panic attack
What is next?
Life’s a mess
Can’t decide
What is best
I’ll have to move forward
No more looking back
Find peace in the present
Not dwell in the past

Poison gas led me to my death
It was him that told me he’d never
come home again
The patriotic psychosis lost in the
fervor for war
How that turns to agony, as the
Bullet drives it’s bore
Paraded thru the streets, a hero in
His land
But in only 5 years, they call him a
Homeless man
Only good for your youth
Use it and you
Destroy the truth
My uncle
The war vet
Has not come home yet
From Vietnam yet
Paraded thru the streets, a hero in
His land
But in only 5 years, they call him a
Homeless man
Only good for your youth
Use and destroy
Destroy the truth

Small Town Blues

I cannot stand this place
My life’s a fucking waste
Overwhelmed with disgrace
Everything’s against me
Never enough money
In constant misery
Can’t breathe - trapped in a self-made hell
Can’t sleep - failing not to dwell
Can’t eat - so ashamed of myself
Don’t whine - lots have it worse today
Don’t try - nothing helps anyways
Stay high - Binge watch sitcoms and waste
Stuffing it down with weed and brown
I’ve had enough of this small town
I’ve got to get out while I still can
Don’t wanna die here an old man
At the end of my rope
I’m failing to cope
With the loss of all I love, all I know
There’s no end in sight
I’m failing to hide behind the guise of false well-being
I’ve lost all sense of security

Learned Behavior
01:46
|

Everyday, Isolate, Masturbate
Repeating, Defeating, Depleting
It’s learned behavior
I know yet make the same mistakes
Holding myself back
From what could be, what’s good for me
Living with regret
What do I expect
Bear the consequence
I have to accept
Fear of the unknown
Never leaving home
It’s no way to live
Suffering alone

I Beg For Death
01:02
|

I wonder what you are dreaming
While you’re lying in the dark
I wonder what you would think of
me and that’s the hardest part
I will always be a little boy lost
Looking for a father’s love
at sanity’s cost
I could play forever
I could sell a million records
I could be a good son
But what’s done is done
I watched a person I love
Cross the great divide
I watched my father drag him self
to Hades
The night that he died
You don’t have to drag me to hell
Because I’m already fucking here
There’s nowhere left to run,
when you have nothing left to fear
I will always be a little boy lost
Looking for a reason to die and rot
I won’t play forever
I’ll never sell a million records
I was a good son
Now I beg for death

Point the Finger
01:53
|

Welcome to our state of decline
Polarization by design
The tension of civil unrest
With no relief from the distress
Point the finger, quick to blame
Quick to forget, we’re all the same
In this class struggle, we’re all misled
Work for the man, until we’re dead
