Closed Minds 01:46
Your ignorance it makes me sick, I wish the way you think was less significant. I won't back down, I won't listen to your backwards views of those who don't fit in. Your intolerance of others acts and callous way of dismissing facts, I've no interest in what you have to say, I've got my own life, I live my own way. A generation of such closed minds, you're just the blind being led by the blind. I can't understand why you'd feel such hate, what will it take, to make you just see straight. What's the aim? Where's it gonna end? Do you feel no shame? This needs to fuckin end. Your ignorance it makes me sick, I wish the way you think was less significant. I won't listen to your backwards views of those who don't fit in. It's time for us to take a stand, no matter what you believe you're not better than them.

Losing Grip 01:46
Never felt the need to stop and never thought to question why, you're so sheltered in your life, no need to think of criticise. Day by day I'm losing faith in this human race, I try to pave my way with change but it seems to crack in front of me. Break loose from the chains that hold us, break loose from the ties that bind, break loose from mundane structure, free your mind. Never felt the need to stop and never thought to question why, this time is ours for us to hold, at least I'm gonna fuckin try. Day by day I'm losing faith in this human race, we need to inspire a change in youth, it starts with me and it starts with you. Break loose from the chains that hold us, break loose from the ties that bind, break loose from mundane structure, free your mind. I feel like we're loosing grip, but I'm still holding on for change.

Face the Sun 02:04
This unbelievable repetition, I've forced myself in this position, I've done things that I'm not proud of and I've lost all respect for myself. I thought I was a better man, I need to be better man. I can only hope, that I'm given that chance. I'm sick of being a disappointment, I'm determined to make my admends, admit to my mistakes and be able to face the sun. I need to search inside, find the strength to make a change.

Action without focus. We revolt without knowing what we aim to achieve, hoping a brazen display will stem their greed. We're too short sighted we refuse to see, that we're wasting our own lives. If we continue on this way we never will survive. Who has the power? Who's in control? Light a fire, don't stand idyl. Be the change you want to see, start with yourself. Action without purpose. We need to unite for a common cause, stop the turmoil within ourselves and target breaking down their walls. Edification is the key, no anarchists we need activists, free spirits and minds, not a mob mentality. Who has the power? Who's in control? Light a fire, don't stand idyl. Be the change you want to see, start with yourself. I know it's true something's gotta give. Have you thought through how you wanna live? There's sacrifice that you'll have to make. Ask yourself if you think you have what it takes.

I'd like to think that I don't care, that I'm not weighed down by this mask that I wear. These days are short, too short to spend, trying to relive them all over again. Maybe they were never meant to last. So where do I go from here?
