AUTHORITY ZERO LYRICS - Everyday

AUTHORITY ZERO LYRICS

"Everyday"

I look around and it's the same old situation on a different day

These masses of confrontation beating me down

I'm picking at the pieces to put them all back into place

A never ending crossword of questions collaborates

While asking myself, where are we going in time?

But hey, everyday, I'll pick my feet up off the ground

And everyday you'll see, I don't make believe

That everything is okay, but in the end

The life that you choose to lead is your fate

You'll see

Communication with yourself and asking,

"Is this really where I want to be?"

No way!

Patronized, antagonized, and bound beyond

the boundaries of everyday life

A mutual enmity for a system of conformity, and asking myself,

Is this really where I want to be?

Anchors away, don't let it drag you down oh no!

But hey everyday, I'll pick my feet up off the ground

And everyday you'll see, I don't make believe

That everything is okay, but in the end

The life that you choose to lead is your fate

You'll see: !!!

Well I know by now, but keep wondering how

How many times will I fall?

I'll keep standing tall!

Everything you talk about and everything you see

Everybody's trying to tell you who you want to be

Don't try to separate reality from dreaming

Trust yourself, keep on believing

I think I can is all that you can really tell yourself

Just keep on and moving my friend oh yeah someday you're gonna see!

That hey everyday, well I'll pick my feet up off the ground

And everyday, you'll see, I don't make believe

That everything is okay, but in the end

The life that you choose to lead is your fate

You're gonna see

ROSEMATTER LYRICS - Being Brave Means Having Your Adult Teeth Kicked In

ROSEMATTER LYRICS

"Being Brave Means Having Your Adult Teeth Kicked In"

You could be a little lost or you could be a little stronger

But it’s up to you

Break down those breakthroughs

There’s a subtle ringing at dawn that glows on the horizon

Here’s a song of hope

Breathe in all the possibilities



We could be, we could be lost in all our situations or on the verge of clarity

We share disaster and strive for meaning

A collection of laughter and tears, regret and satisfaction connect us all



All these minutes, they fly off our tongues unaware of their value

They disappear into the night becoming a blanket of fire and romance

We turn our wishful gaze upon

When desperation’s our only option we beg for those minutes back



We could be, we could be lost in all our situations or on the verge of clarity

We share disaster and strive for meaning

A collection of laughter and tears, regret and satisfaction connect us all



Seeds of bitterness can become words of progress

Step outside yourself and tend your wounds

Peel back the skin and wash away, wash away the salts of spite



We could be, we could be lost in all our situations or on the verge of clarity

We share disaster and strive for meaning

A collection of laughter and tears, regret and satisfaction connect us all

Or on the verge of clarity

We share disaster and strive for meaning (connect us all)

A collection of laughter and tears, regret and satisfaction connect us all

CURSIVE LYRICS - The Rhyme Scheme

CURSIVE LYRICS

"The Rhyme Scheme"

Words have no feeling without loaded meanings

Words take too long to come across

Meanings are meant for defining defintions

We load them for efect, it's cheap but it's working



It's the best I've got to get your attention

I could never get your attention

I could never please you

The verses are wasted on words you won't relate to

On words you'll never hear



It's not working -- I don't feel any better

I don't feel so well

The verbal breakdown has failed

So I'm whispering secrets

Hush, hush, on the loudspeaker

Words sculpted on verse become absurd



But it's the best I've got to get your attention

I could never get your attention

I could never please you

Words so sympathetic -- symphonic, yet pathetic -- are tossed on to the song



The meaning is lost...

The meaning is lost...



Words... just... won't... work...

Words... are... slowly demeaning their meanings

Words... make... things... worse

Words... are... always repeating

Losing their meaning

These words failed

Words fail

CATCH 22 LYRICS - This One Goes Out To

CATCH 22 LYRICS

"This One Goes Out To..."

Staring out the window of somebody's pickup truck

well I never mind the boredom cause I use it for a crutch.

Just to get me to that place it's a different state of sane

and every time I try to change I always end up quite the same.

Thinking back to happier days when everyone was ignorant

and all the kids behaved

but me and my friends and the ice cream man

that was our existence that was our clan.

This one goes out to the friends I never had:

Hey I don't understand but I'd like to anyway,

hey I don't understand but I like it anyway

hey I don't understand but I like you anyway

hey I don't understand.

Shelter in the city we decided to go in

and I gave a man some money to buy heroin

but the homeless man returned and he gave me back a dime he said,

"put it in your sock my friend and save it for another time."

but: lessons are learned and later unlearned

If he knew then what he knows now well he could rule the world

but I'm not one to judge what happened yesterday

cause I got me I got myself my future is at stake

This one goes out to...

PETER AND THE TEST TUBE BABIES LYRICS - Temptation

PETER AND THE TEST TUBE BABIES LYRICS

"Temptation"

I'm walking on fire, I'm painting the whole sky blue.

Can't control my desire, can't keep my hands off of you.



There's one thing I can't resist.. temptation.



Jungle sensitivity, feeling like a child.

Take a trip to the root of my tree, send me running wild.



I'm climbing mountains, for those peaks of pleasure.

I'm spending fortunes, on a life of leisure.

BLACKLIST ROYALS LYRICS - Tennessee Blues

BLACKLIST ROYALS LYRICS

"Tennessee Blues"

Head up sixty-five

Through the Kentucky line

Southern Indiana

In the summer time

All those girls are crazy

But you know that's alright

Get another round

And boys we'll play all night



Cause it's Virginia, Carolina,

And I'm back to you

Make town in the morning honey,

But when I do

It's only for a minute

And I'm gone again

Following the river

Down to New Orleans



Stranded out in Texas,

Austin, San Antonio

Ten through Arizona man

And we are gone

Right off to California

With them girls so fine

It's gonna make me lose my mind



I've been drunk since noon

Ain't it a shame

But lately I don't give a fuck

About anything

Driving these highways all alone

Tennessee I'm coming home



I don't want to go home

ANBERLIN LYRICS - Like A Rolling Stone

ANBERLIN LYRICS

"Like A Rolling Stone"

Originally by Bob Dylan

Once upon a time you dressed so fine

You threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you?

People'd call, say, "Beware doll, you're bound to fall"

You thought they were all kiddin' you

You used to laugh about

Everybody that was hangin' out

Now you don't talk so loud

Now you don't seem so proud

About having to be scrounging for your next meal.



How does it feel

How does it feel

To be without a home

Like a complete unknown

Like a rolling stone



You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely

But you know you only used to get juiced in it

And nobody has ever taught you how to live on the street

And now you find out you're gonna have to get used to it

You said you'd never compromise

With the mystery tramp, but know you realize

He's not selling any alibis

As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes

And say do you want to make a deal?



How does it feel

How does it feel

To be on your own

With no direction home

Like a complete unknown

Like a rolling stone



Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people

They're drinkin', thinkin' that they got it made

Exchanging all precious gifts

But you'd better take your diamond ring, you'd better pawn it babe

You used to be so amused

At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used

Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse

When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose

You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.



How does it feel

How does it feel

To be on your own

With no direction home

Like a complete unknown

Like a rolling stone

DISTORTED PENGUINS LYRICS - I Will Stay

DISTORTED PENGUINS LYRICS

"I Will Stay"

If I will stay it's up to you

If you want me if you need me

and If I know you that's what you'll do

You'll say never leave me ever



I hope you'll find, a bed to rest your head in comfort

Hope it is mine, The hand that holds your soul in slumber



If I will stay it's up to you

If you want me if you need me

and If I know you that's what you'll do

You'll say never leave me ever



I know in time, You're hand held skies parallel to mine

I know we tire, from every passing day we're blind



Follow these feelings deep inside

All my decisions they decide

Hold on, Hold on for dear life now



I can be, I can be.. your everything

If you wanted to know

I can be, I can be.. your everything

If you wanna go



Finally, found a reason

BOY SETS FIRE LYRICS - Pariah Under Glass

BOY SETS FIRE LYRICS

"Pariah Under Glass"

symbolized patronized and then tossed out dry revolution or humiliation

promise the bread the wine a life that shines

pick them up from the floor to get knocked down again

when you're bored with your mission and a new one begins

ride - your new thrill ride

smug - it suits you well

god - in your new science lab

master - of your new promised land

echo care and fake some tears to show your opponent

throwing bones with bread and circus to disguise the proof

you only empower yourself when those in need become your new

test subjects in your smear campaign 101

recycle control from their hands to your own every word is

dropping empty promise again focus away from day to day for your own ends

their means are dying

shame - the act is old

count - your saintly sermon cells

angel - for your own rewards

bring - the mercy merchants down

ATOM AND HIS PACKAGE LYRICS - Atom And His Package

ATOM AND HIS PACKAGE LYRICS

"Atom And His Package"

Here is the tale of the boy standing in front of you

Not one word is exaggerated -- entirely true

A four square in chemistry, my agenda tonight

As I rock the house left, and a I rock the house right



I can't fly, I can't dance

And I don't like any bands

Listen up, cuz I am Atom, I am the sequencing man

Where I want is where I go

I'm always armed with a burrito

Listen up, cuz I am Atom, I am the sequencing man



I travel the world with my band in a box

And I rock 10 times harder than your average punk rock band

I'm almost done, I'm almost through

I hope to God I'm not boring you

I often do the number 2

I am the always often pooping Jew



I can't fly, I can't dance

And I don't like any bands

Listen up, cuz I am Atom, I am the sequencing man

Where I want is where I go

I'm always armed with a burrito

Listen up, cuz I am Atom, I am the sequencing man



I can't fly, I can't dance

And I don't like your band

Listen up, cuz I am Atom, I am the sequencing man

Where I want is where I go

I'm always armed with a burrito

Pay attention, cuz I am Atom, I am the sequencing man

"The Sage Of Washington Oaks"

Maybe We'll Come

Maybe We'll Go

It's all for you (This is all for you)

maybe this time around we'll know what to and what not to do

and we'll go on thinking about how we all could change

but what good is changing for all of them

for all of them, for all of them

you're not changing for yourself

save yourself

change for yourself

NUMBER ONE GUN LYRICS - Try It

NUMBER ONE GUN LYRICS

"Try It"

I don't even want to guess

How much it hurts to have

Nothing in the way of this

I will never know you sad

You didn't even see us here

You might as well disappear

It didn't matter all along

It didn't matter right or wrong



Decide

I will be fine

And all along the back of my mind, I am

Way too fast

This won't, won't last

'Cause I'm way too fast

You cant, can't see my mind and I'm

Way too young, what I believe is mine alone

And I'm way too fast

Can't take my reason why tonight



Even when I'm all alone

I take in the breath and hold

Average is 5 a day

I have plenty more to take

And what am I to say to you?

What do I fall into?

Fall into all the lies

Can you make me realize?

(Can you make me realize?)



Decide

I will be fine

(I take in the breath and hold)

And all along the back of my mind, I am

Way too fast

This won't, won't last

'Cause I'm way too fast

You can't, can't see my mind and I'm

Way too young, what I believe is mine alone

And I'm way too fast

Can't take my reason why tonight



(Can't take my reason why tonight)

Way too fast

This won't, won't last

'Cause I'm way too fast

You can't, can't see my mind and I'm

Way too young, what I believe is mine alone

And I'm way too fast

Can't take my reason why tonight

FRENZAL RHOMB LYRICS - The Ballad Of Tim Webster

FRENZAL RHOMB LYRICS

"The Ballad Of Tim Webster"

You remind me of a god you are my hero

An authority on all and sundry, it's remarkable your

depth of knowledge but there's something wrong

with your eyes.



What are they protecting you from

There's something wrong with your eyelids.

ZEBRAHEAD LYRICS - The Setup

ZEBRAHEAD LYRICS

"The Setup"

Lie to me

Tell me that everything will be all right

(Who-o-a)Lie to me

Don't say it didn't mean anything

1-2-3 GO!

I should have known when my kicks

Crossed the hinge on your door

That you had something more in store

Implore

Do not push my back up to the wall [x2]

This is a set up

Rush adrenaline

Fake, phony, fed up

Bass, Alkaline

This is a set up

Waste everything

You never told me

Till the pressure started building

You never told me

I was wrong

I was right [x2]

You never told me

Till the building started shaking

Now I'm surrounded on all sides

Lie to me

Tell me that everything will be all right

(Who-o-a)Lie to me

Don't say it didn't mean anything

Lie to me

Killing joke cause your smile was the calm to the storm

And the ties that bind have been torn

I said

Do not push my back to the wall [x2]

[Repeat Chorus]

You take this for granted

Right?

And I never wanted anybody else

You took this all for granted

You took it all

MADISON LYRICS - A Fall From Grace

MADISON LYRICS

"A Fall From Grace"

When I sat

Felt I had no where else to go

When in before the sun and god only knows

When I see your face it makes me think of that special place

Stood out on the rocks and watched the stars all fall from grace



But I knew that it had to end some day

You just didn't know what words to say



Constant fights getting stuck in my mind

I thought we knew enough to go and put them all behind

If I had the chance to make it all mend

I'd hold in you in my arms and never let you go again



Never let you go, never thought I'd know

Never let you go, never thought I'd know



But I knew that it had to end some day

You just didnt know what words to say



Felt we needed to spend some time

You didn't want to I knew because I read your mind

When I think back to that day you went away

I wanted to follow you, you knew I didn't want to stay

PEDRO THE LION LYRICS - Slow And Steady Wins The Race

PEDRO THE LION LYRICS

"Slow And Steady Wins The Race"

all the way to grandma's house

i stayed on the narrow path

but my brother wandered off

deep into the woods

bitten twice by rattle snakes

tangled up in poison oak

he fell down and broke his legs

into a great ravine

when i arrived at grandma's house

she made us tea and cake

she asked me where my brother was

i said i don't know and ate

when i get to heaven i'll be greeted warmly

surrounded by angels

as jesus takes my hand

i'll receive a mansion

on the river jordan

and a crown of diamonds

for a race well run

i won't ever lock my doors

i will trust my neigbors

confident that they desreve

to be there in heaven, too

ANTI-NOWHERE LEAGUE LYRICS - Mother's C!!!

ANTI-NOWHERE LEAGUE LYRICS

"Mother's C!!!"

We used to knock around at school

But now you're fat and now you're bald

You see me working for the fist

As you spend your time just getting pissed



Oh oh oh that's arseholes to the front

We're the boys that's always on the hunt

Oh oh oh that's aseholes to the front

Can't you see you're just your mothers cunt



She was only seventeen

She had her kids from different men

So just to give her hands some ease

She kept her knickers round her knees



Now you think you've got it made

You're getting fat not getting laid

You'll eat yourself into your grave

You're a big fat bastard anyway

DISCO ENSEMBLE LYRICS - Lightweight Giants

DISCO ENSEMBLE LYRICS

"Lightweight Giants"

Once in a year they shoot up fireworks

This time we'll give them something in return

Once in a year they shoot up fireworks

We've never known why, it's not our concern

We're ugly little teens in ugly little towns

We tried sneaking light

But our steps make holes into the ground



Take over

Walk trough the walls

Come over

This is our town

Just make a move and you are history



We're going to fuck you up

Just for sitting there

Our word is the law

Our word is the law here

We're ugly little teens in ugly little towns

We spit between our teeth

And then we strike a frown



Take over

Walk trough the walls

Turn over

Our arms are crossed

And don't make a sound cause we are listening



Once in a year they shoot up fireworks

Now something went wrong, and the whole city burns



Bad news travels faster in here

THE REBEL SPELL LYRICS - I Was There

THE REBEL SPELL LYRICS

"I Was There"

When we started out they said that you can't change nothing but we could all see that we were gonna have to do something. The years continue to pass and the change has been hard fought and to the person in the moment nothing seems to move. But if you look back past the limits of your time you can see that things are better now. Decades and decades of back and forth resulted in a steady shift. A better place is an is and epoch off but the numbers have grown and increased the pace. As long as you're involved you've earned the right to say. I was there on the day it all went down. You're making a big mistake if you think we're fucking around. You said it can't be done and try to fade us out. I was there on the day it all went down. They say that we owe them, but we don't owe them nothing. Don't ask us to play along in the choice of no choices. We're putting down our popcorn and standing in our chairs. Please remove me from this movie my eyes can't take the glare. I resent your attempt to bury me. I'm angered by the disease you weave and i see the futility in passive means. We all know it's an action scene and like some kind of super squad, we make things move against the odds. We were there and we will be here. I was there on the day it all went down. You're making a big mistake if you think we're fucking around. You said it can't be done and try to fade us out. I was there on the day it all went down. They say that we owe them, but we don't owe them nothing. Don't ask us to play along in the choice of no choices. As the world boils to war, it's easy to despair. It doesn't mean that anyone wants this, it's just how strong the trap is. The genious who brought this can't be excreted from office because the methods they offer are'nt met to change a thing. It's moved and it's building because people are seeing that revision is not an answer. We've earned the right to say. I was there on the day it all went down. You're making a big mistake if you think we're fucking around. You said it can't be done and try to fade us out. Lets bring it home, we have something to tell them.

HOT HOT HEAT LYRICS

"Talk To Me, Dance With Me"

You are my only girl, but you're not my owner girl.

Talk to me... dance with me here in the spotlight, girl.

Talk to me... dance with me here.

You're the spotlight girl.

So perfect you paint it... yet so manipulated.

So calm and so patient... yet oh so calculated.

So safe and comforting... this doesn't feel like flirting.

So fun I'm distracted... forgot you keep track of it.

THE AMITY AFFLICTION LYRICS - Severance

THE AMITY AFFLICTION LYRICS

"Severance"

This silence just became disconcerting

And I am more than worried…I…

Try to steal glances through the smoke

But I…I…find that I’m collapsing on the table amidst it all



Staring at exit signs

Until my eyes bleed green and white

Staring at exit signs

Until my eyes bleed green and white



Feeling the warmth drain from within

Watching my face contort

In the blood spill

Watching my face contort



The silence just became disconcerting

And I am more than worried

(I feel the warmth) Worried about

(Drain from within) The state of

My severed hands



I guess that I’m…falling out of touch…

I guess that I’m…falling out of touch…



Feeling the warmth drain from within

Watching my face contort

In the blood spill

Watching my face contort



The silence just became disconcerting

And I am more than worried

(I feel the warmth) Worried about

(Drain from within) The state of

My severed hands



I’m still trying to steal stares with glances

Still dying to be so close to…

Severance…Severance

Still dying to be so close

To Severance

I see my face contort



The silence just became disconcerting

And I am more than worried

(I feel the warmth) Worried about

(Drain from within) The state of

My severed hands

SICK SHIFT LYRICS - Sunday Drive

SICK SHIFT LYRICS

"Sunday Drive"

I've felt dignified fortune before

But the luck's not on my side today

Burnt out, can't remember the score

Success and reality have gone their separate ways

I know it's hard

When the solitary chain reaction buries me

Confessed, second guessed

I swallow the remains of my pride and my validity



Now it's come to this

I never thought I would hang so long

I'm blaming everyone

I was falling short all along

At odds, but I try

I know it ain't no Sunday drive

Pressure, it bears down

Distracts me from my life



Penniless, but got the bills to pay

Inferiority complex rations spent

Working nine to five every day

Sucks my time right through the social vent

I can't make sense

Of this systematic rat race marathon

In time I realize

My dreams for ideals and utopia have gone

FACE TO FACE LYRICS - Boat Dreams From The Hill

FACE TO FACE LYRICS

"Boat Dreams From The Hill"

Originally by Jawbreaker

Boat on a hill

Never going to sea

Anchored to a fixer upper's dream

This boat is beat

Never gonna be a boat now

Thirsty sees the sea from high on ice plant



He keeps patching it and painting

Thinking about his pension plan

But the boat is out to pasture

Seems it never had a chance



I wanna be a boat

I wanna learn to swim

And then I'll learn to float

Then begin again



I wanna be a boat

I wanna learn to swim

And then I'll learn to float

Then begin again



Boat remembers the carpenter's sure hand

Missing fishy flutter on it's rudder

Sold at an auction, on a dolly ever since

Sometimes rainy days drop boyish wonder



He keeps patching it and painting

Thinking about his pension plan

But the boat is out to pasture

Seems it never had a chance



I wanna be a boat

I wanna learn to swim

And then I'll learn to float

Then begin again



I wanna be a boat

I wanna learn to swim

And then I'll learn to float

Then begin again

A LYRICS - Good Idea

A LYRICS

"Good Idea"

Good Idea [x6]



1% is all I hate

The other 99 I rate

Things that make me feel like I'm alive, woah...



Rocky One, summer sun, 10 foot of snow, big theme parks

I said Columbo, easy b-sides, and royalty cheques, happy hours



Problem is we don't have long

The list is longer than the song

Please don't miss the point and say I'm wrong, oh...



Tony Hawk, fat cigars, concrete skate parks, lyric swappin'

Body poppin', Jedi mind tricks, and mountain songs, sell out gigs

Ian Wright and satellite are



Good Idea [x8]



Give me a G-O-O-D

Give me an I-D-E-A



Good Idea
