It's been proven
There is no solution
Glorious flags
Will turn into rags
It'll be all we have
To prove there was a past
Rotting beneath the surface of the dust
Remnants of the past and stories warning us
Of plight and tyranny, you can look and see
The things underneath
Rotting inside
Governments hide
You know deep inside that
We'll be dust in a pine box
When society is lost
No matter what we have faced
It will always be erased
We are to be defeated
We will always be deleted
It shall not end in torture
But ignorance and forfeiture
What happens when that day comes
When you give up on the fight
And all your mind and souls numb
You do not remain dumb
There's no time to rest
It's time to resist
(I won't let that be me)
I'll leave the things in life that will be found in time
(I won't be found buried)
I'll be in the air when a presence isn't there
We'll be dust in a pine box
When our society is lost
No matter what we have faced
It will always be erased
We are to be defeated
We will always be deleted
It shall not end in torture
But ignorance and forfeiture
What happens when that day comes
When you give up on the fight
And all your mind and souls numb
We have to turn the gun

These three chords have been played so many times I swear
But there's not many choices on this guitar I wear
It's okay I don't know how to play it anyway
I think I've heard this song so many times
If I blew my brains out It would be on my mind
Thats okay it's love and that's what we need
Scream my heart out through my mouth I will bleed
These three chords can never fail me
They live in my soul and they fill up my teeth
You may not know just what I mean
But you've never been babbling
Or seen what I seen
These three chords have saved my life
Or set it in the dumps when I wanna die
All my favorite times of life
Are set to a song resembling this like
Drinking and singing with my friends
Talking about happiness and of the end
These three chords can never fail me
They live in my soul and they fill up my teeth
You may not know just what I mean
But you've never been homeless
Or seen what I seen
So next time you think
This song sounds like shit
Remember this is my life
And this is how I think
And next time you think
This songs so simple
If I wasn't alone
It'd be better by triple
This is how I wanta play
Easy to strum when I'm drunk
And wasted by end day.
These three chords can never fail me
They live in my soul and they fill up my teeth
You may not know just what I mean
But you've never been in love
Or seen what I seen

Dear Friend
I know that you would back out
from what you said
By the lines that you now defend
Told us that we would
spend all your pointless loot
To get out of here and go for adventure
And break off all our roots
We needed to escape
Get out of this place
Told us to pack our shit
Then you stayed home and lied to my face
Fears what makes you stay
To you
I know that I look like a fool
for not saving
all of the coins you are craving
I will always be
and never stay
in this place for the rest of my time
I'll die without a a dime
We all need to escape
Get out of this place
Stand up and pack our shit
But we stay on the couch and stuff our face...

I Won't Give Up

I just wanna get a ride
outta town some place to hide
Someplace in the woods I need
Ohio took my license from me
But it seems escapes a dream
To those trees so dirty so clean
I won't be stuck in this town
Like my friends who are so down
I won't give up on
I won't give up on my dreams

We Don't Need No Place

I won't get stuck
In this hellhole
I'd sell my soul
For one moment
With you
(Chorus)
I'd give it all
Burn down the mall
Ride suicide
Drink cyanide
Go to jail
I'd put up your bail
Travel with you
See something new
Busk for some drugs
Covered in bugs
We don't need no place to call home
(Post Chorus)
I've been travelin'
I've been had in
I've been gotten
I've been rotten
I've been something
I've been nothing
I've been sober
I've been over
But not with you
I've been crazy
I've been lazy
I've been homeless
I've been hopeless
I've been richer
Slept in ditch dirt
But not with you
My folk punk girl/boy
You are my world
Steal some cheap beer
Without a fear
(Chorus)
(Post Chorus)
(Chorus)

It's All Over

I've been watching
Earth fall apart
From the acid
Or is it just the life
Booze is worn off
Never enough
It'll be tough
But there's another day
Trying to hard
To prove I'm not a
Sycophantic, apathetic, pacifistic, hypocritic fuck
Who is to blame
For the acid rain
Planets done for
It's passed out on the floor
Give it a chance
It'll get back
The things it lacked
And kill us off for soil
More sleepless nights
Moon fight my eyes
So keep drinking
While the world sinks
Pay the man to cross the bridge
Say nothing to anyone
Lay down take your last breath
It's all over
I've been seeing
Mind is fleeting
Finally solve
Nothing more nothing
Will I die soon
I would assume
It will all end
And I will be alone
Give me a chance
Get up and dance
The acid rain
Will sizzle away your pain
