EAC23
Lend me your ears, but turn
away because it’s hideous up here. Amber waves of grain have crumbled down and Church Street has
been swept clear. A lonely train ride home, when all your friends have wings.
Remember when the skies were
for the birds before structures were even dreamed. When everything has gone
wrong.
So what’s your two cents? That’s
all it worth because you never had a clue. Regurgitating everything you heard
in the post and the daily news.
A slave to your nine to five
and your three piece suit and tie(your suit and tie). The irony of the American
dream, indentured till you die.
When everything has gone
wrong. Just know I meant every word. You know I meant every word. And we dance,
and we dance, and we dance through the streets and tenements and we snap-snap
and clap our hands in remembrance.
Why me? “The seasons come
and go. Look at the ash it falls like snow. We flew to fertilize the earth so a
flower can grow.” He said. But still the seasons come and go. Look at the leaves
that turn to snow. We flew to fertilize the earth, cause from death come
rebirth. So just live!
When everything has gone
wrong. Just know I meant every word. You know I meant every word. Why me?
She’s a Carnivore
So take a look in my eyes and
tell me what you see. It’s all for you, it’s not for me. When talking to you is
like a CD on repeat (here it goes, here it goes). You never listen to me. Is
that the way it’s supposed to be? But there’s two sides to every story so shut
your mouth and hear me out!
When all your negativity, it
makes me want to leave (and I’ll go) and all your insecurities, they make me
want to scream.
Now you wake me up out of a
perfect sleep, you’re yelling and screaming and I’m still trying to dream and
everyday it’s like a carbon copy (here it goes, here it goes). You never listen
to me. Is that the way it’s supposed to be? But there’s two sides to every
story, so shut your mouth and hear me out! When all your negativity, it makes
me want to leave (and I’ll go). All your insecurities, they make me want to
scream: Get off my back! I’m not your crutch. Trapped in a box (I’m trapped!).
So take a look at yourself
and tell me what you see. I’m not normal but you’re crazy and everyday it’s
like a carbon copy (here it goes, here it goes). You never listen to me. Is
that the way it’s supposed to be!? Trapped in a box (I’m trapped!)
Code Red, Almost Dead
Around the world and back
again and still nothings changed. When me, myself, and I’s my biggest adversary.
Where do we go from here? Cause my visions become unclear and something’s got to
give because I don’t have another year. Let’s go! This is our contribution but
we are not your revolution. As youth dies, dreams fade away. So live your lives
extraordinary and never settle for ordinary. Be who you want to be. So who you
want to be?
Yea, bands they come and go
but in the end they will know who has been here from the start and always did
it with heart. This is our contribution but we are not your revolution. As
youth dies, dreams fade away. So live your lives extraordinary and never settle
for ordinary. Be who you want to be. So who you want to be? And if not now then
when?
This scene is crumbling. Our
dreams are falling down like rain!
This is our contribution but
we are not your revolution. As youth dies, dreams fade away. So live your lives
extraordinary and never settle for ordinary. Be who you want to be. So who you
want to be?
Just live. Your life. This is
our contribution but we are not your revolution. So be who you want to be, just
live your life.
March II Revolution
We’re not your revolution. We’re
not your call to arms. We’re not what makes a difference. We’re nothing. You’re
nothing.
Habit vs. Habitat
I'm almost 25 years old and I still can't do what I'm told..
I'm not speaking of anarchy, I'm just talking about following my dreams..
And are you satisfied with what's been going on?
And are you satisfied with what you've become?
Cause yo thats sick man! You make 200K, but how do you sleep at the end of the day??
Cause friends they come and friends they go but beware of the friends that you keep close. A good friends worth his weight in gold.. but a knife in the back hurts more than I'm told.
I DON'T WANNA BE OLD AND BORING. I DON'T WANNA BE JUST LIKE YOU!
IF WE COULD JUST STAY KIDS FOREVER, JUST THINK OF ALL THE THINGS WE'D DO!!
CAUSE I DON'T WANNA BE JUST LIKE YOU...
So let's TURN BACK TIME!
And do all the things we wanted to. I wanted to ride a bike with you, I wanna do everything with you!
And I thought I saw you on the train today. If I did I wouldn't known what to say..
"Cause yo thats sickkk man, about your 401k, but how do you sleeep at the end of the day?!"
Cause friends they come and friends they go but beware of the friends that you keep close. A good friends worth his weight in gold but a knife in the back hurts more than I'm told..
I DON'T WANNA BE OLD AND BORING. I DON'T WANNA BE JUST LIKE YOU!

Everyone’s Getting Arrested
The air tonight (yea) it
smells of snow. With your demeanor, your body language, your fake expressions
are so cold. So what you trying to prove? What you try to say it like you mean
it. You act so misleading. This isn’t you. This isn’t you.
The leaves are changing,
they’re different colors and everything is fading fast. Like your demeanor,
your body language, your fake expressions cannot last. So what you trying to
prove and who the hell are you? So what you trying to prove? This isn’t you.
This isn’t you.
You can fake it, you can
fake it but it’s just not true!
So where you gonna run?
Where you gonna hide, when your past is there by your side. Where you gonna
run? What you gonna do? When your past is waiting there for you! This isn’t
you. This isn’t you.
The way you fake it, the way
I take it. The way we both act like nothing’s wrong!
Snaps Not Claps
With knapsacks and pre
bit-rate. Through lonely streets that we would skate. We’re armed with only
your mix tapes. I know you said it yourself.
But that was way back in the
day, before anyone got paid. You hung on every word I said. I know you said it
yourself.
So won’t you say it to my
face. The lies you made yourself believe and everyday we slowly see. It’s not
me, It’s not me.
You know we’d rock this
stage for free because it’s where we want to be. We’re making music, it’s
straight lovely. I know you said it yourself.
But now every show’s
routine. The verse, chorus, it’s obscene. We’re moving t-shirts like disease. I
know you said it yourself.
So won’t you say it to my
face. The lies you made yourself believe and everyday we slowly see. It’s not
me, It’s not me!
The streetlights go on
forever and ever and our friendship has been torn and severed. I never thought
it could and I never thought it would.
So won’t you say it to my
face. The lies you made yourself believe and everyday we slowly see. It’s not
me, It’s not me.
So stumble home and stagger
through the closing doors of a wasted youth.
It’s plain to see. It’s not
me.
