Straight Ahead Lyrics

Greed
Everything you see you always think you need
You are so crazy motivated by greed
You never take responsibility
You only waste your time when you fuck with me
All you do is take you see my hatred grows
Can't take much more I'm about to explode
You'll see a side of me I've never shown
You'll feel pain like you've never known
Got enough but you want it all
In it for greed now you're gonna fall
Here we come gonna ruin your day
Time has come It's your turn to pay
The mighty dollar is your only care
You're movin' up but you're going nowhere
You say you only want to get your share
But you still want more no you won't play fair
you'll never ever quit you won't be denied
You sit and watch your money multiply
To get what you want you'll cheat and lie
But I know - you won't be satisfied
Got enough but you want it all
In it for greed now you're gonna fall
Here we come gonna ruin your day
Time has come It's your turn to pay
Today is a good day for suffering

My Own Country
Fools run the government,
sick foreign policy
Their words sound valiant but their hands are green
Unending quest for power,
Taxes that make us slaves
Don't believe a word of it
ignore the fucked up things they say

I'm gonna make it on my own
Dictator on a throne
Make my own philosophy
U.S. of me
A citizen who's really pissed
United Anarchists
Give me death or liberty
I am my own country
United States Confederate of Me

Old whigs in parliament
play bedroom politics
Salacious stories make them look obscene
Spin on your nemesis
fill up the news today
Don't believe a word of it
not all the fucked up things they say

Fools run the government,
sick foreign policy
Their words sound valiant but their hands are green
Unending quest for power,
Taxes that make us slaves
Don't believe a word of it
ignore the fucked up things they say

Cant Believe It
I said Wait! Can't Believe it
Another victim another life,
another wasted casualty
The youth are shooting, robbing and looting
violence plagues society

In LA. you see it everyday
on your TV on your front page
you can try, but you can't wish it away
I said wait! Can't believe it

drunk and loaded in the street
hatred flowing through their veins
no respect for human life
a world that slowly goes insane

In LA. you see it everyday
on your TV on your front page
you can try, but you can't wish it away
I said wait! Can't believe it

On your front page, on your TV
( it's ) the endless urban tragedy
in your dark thoughts,
your wildest dreams
can you imagine a worse society
and when I think I can pretend
I turn on my TV again
and all the fucked up things I see
I can't believe how this can be

Wait! Can't Believe it
I said wait! Can't believe it

Victim Of Reality
Let's take a ride!
take a ride and you will see
another dose of reality
It's your life that becomes a victim of me
I think I'm sick and you will see

Because one good shot
and you'll end up dead
It's violence on the streets
and it will never end
The world is not built for me
and your my next victim
Victim of reality
Voices screaming in my head
telling me the path that I tread
It's not sane but it's where we're fed
You're gonna end up dead

It's not something new to me
a body in the street free publicity
for me and you a world we've known
a world that is so cold

Might Be A Dream
The look in your eyes
tells me you can't disguise
why won't you try and face the truth
You're stuck nowhere
I can see that you dont care
It doesn't seem like it means much to you
I'm sick of listening to you whining

It might be a dream, instead it means nothing
It could be everything you wanted it to be
It might be a dream, instead it means nothing
It could be everything you wanted it to be
It might be a dream

I see you everyday
wasting your time away
afraid to try afraid to lose
don't know why you can't see
you could have everything
or nothing at all it's up to you
you've always got to keep on trying

It might be a dream, instead it means nothing
It could be everything you wanted it to be
It might be a dream, instead it means nothing
It could be everything you wanted it to be
It might be a dream

You know your life could be
all you want it be
keep getting closer day by day
Images in your head
and they wont go away
if you don't try you'll only fail

It might be a dream, instead it means nothing
It could be everything you wanted it to be
It might be a dream, instead it means nothing
It could be everything you wanted it to be
It might be a dream

Still Can Be Great
Every time you try to change,
something always goes wrong
And by the time you figure it out,
everything you wanted was gone

Do you know there is a way
to be everything you always wanted to be
Can I Say if you start today
You can begin to make your own reality
don't say it's not worth it,
I know you can change
It may never be perfect,
there's no one to blame
When you feel yourself going down
pick yourself up off the ground
It may never be perfect
It still can be great

So you think you've lost your chance,
the world just keeps passing you by
But you can find what you're looking for,
only if you're willing to try

Straight Ahead
All the things you want
all the things you need
you got the power to choose
you got the right to be
all the things you loathe
all the things you hate
is what you will become
until you will go straight
all the things denied the shit you can't believe
you don't blame your self you blame society
all the things in life that you've been waiting for
wait outside your door

All your problems won't go away
I guess this is the price you pay
your decisions you will soon regret
throw away your life,
go straight ahead

I see you everyday
wasting your time away
you got no respect
got nothing good to say
all the things you loathe
all the things you hate
see what you will become
unless you will go straight
all the things in life all that you wanna be
but you don't even try you want it all for free
all the things in life that you've been waiting for
wait outside your door

All your problems won't go away
I guess this is the price you pay
your decisions you will soon regret
throw away your life,
Go straight ahead

My Own Way
I got my way of life
and I won't back down or apologize
for things I cannot change
guess I gotta do things my own way
And I don't give a damn
if you got a problem with who I am
Cause I don't give a fuck
you wanna change me well you're outta luck

I don't know if I could never ever change
And I don't think that I would want to anyway
And I don't care if I never live to see the day
We can compromise,
I'm doing things my own way

It's so hard to believe
that we can see the world so differently
And we don't realize
cause we can't see the world through each other's eyes
We'll never understand
I dont think that anybody can
I won't change anyway
Cause I'm just stubborn stuck in my ways

I don't know if I could never ever change
And I don't think that I would want to anyway
And I don't care if I never live to see the day
We can compromise,
I'm doing things my own way
I don't care, I don't know
I don't care, I don't know
I don't care if you never see the world like I do

One Voice
A million faces are blurred in today
A million lives that are so far away
I'm all alone and I want you to know
I want to scream but there's nowhere to go
A million voices are making the cry,
A million lives that are waiting to die
A million families are wasting away
split by decision it must go away

Someone soon is gonna die,
wasting away in a world full of lies
Song unseen another day
somehow tomorrow somehow today
If you don't listen you'll never learn
watch yourself or you might get burned
Isn't it time to tell yourself
I've got to get out I've got to go
We've got to be one voice

How many lives will be taken today
How many times will we just look away
How many voices cry to be heard
Screaming alone but no one hears a word
How many faces alone in the crowd
waiting for answers facing the clouds
How much longer do we have to wait
times running out and there's no time to waste

We've got to be one voice,
Gotta start now, we don't have the choice
We've got to be one voice today
We've got to be one voice,
Don't back down, we don't have the choice
We've got to be one voice today

Alien
Everyday I convince myself,
Of every thing I can and can't believe
Abused, Confused
Everyday you see your every crime,
Just stare up at the sky, you wonder why
Afraid, Deranged

Hold on to your promise, you can use it for a crutch
Stand by, while all your dreams get trampled in the dust
Leave now, before your slick machines begin to rust
Last chance, farewell
Among us

Everyday you get a little bit older
And everything gets hard you wonder why?
Afraid, deranged
Everyday you see your every crime,
An endlessshocking show on the parade
Abused, Confused

Hold on to your promise, you can use it for a crutch
Stand by, while all your dreams get trampled in the dust
Leave now, before your slick machines begin to rust
Last chance, farewell
Among us

Everyday I convince myself,
Of every thing I can and can't believe
Afraid, Deranged

Hold on to your promise, you can use it for a crutch
Stand by, while all your dreams get trampled in the dust
Leave now, before your slick machines begin to rust
Last chance, farewell
Among us

Where are the aliens?
We're the aliens

Watch Me As I Fall
I am a puppet on a string
I am the worst thing
worst thing you've ever seen
I am impossible to believe
I'm pulled by gravity shocked by my depravity

I'm irrational, I'm illogical, hypocritical
a bleeding heart liberal
I'm an alien dressed like Gideon
I'm a malcontent, a thorough modern idiot
watch me as I fall

I am humble I am vain
what motivates me something I can't explain
I am outrageous and insane
I'm fueled by gasoline, alcohol and nicotine

I'm irrational, I'm illogical, walking chemical
a bleeding heart liberal
I'm an alien dressed like Gideon
I'm a malcontent, a thorough modern idiot
watch me as I fall

I'm an honest hypocrite
imploding modern idiot
I am a slave to my abuse
convicted caught with no excuse
I'm pathetic, apathetic
disillusioned, disconnected
I am lost, I am free
I'm impossible to believe

I'm irrational I'm illogical, hypocritical
Statistcally impossible
I'm an alien dressed like Gideon
I'm a malcontent a thorough modern idiot
watch me as I fall

Just For You
Confusions just set in
It always does, where does life begin
You never know
You won't know, until it hits you
You never act the same
You always play the game
If you play to kill,
You won't see it coming

You wanna see a change for tommorow
Don't you wanna see a change, just for you
Just for you

Depression closes in, you can't escape
No one understands, they can't relate
You won't know, until it hits you
It never goes away, feel it everyday
You're only hope, It could change tommorow

You wanna see a change for tommorow
Don't you wanna see a change, just for you
You wanna see a change, before you throw it all away
Something has gotta break,
Just for you

Break through tradition,
Break through to life
Hold onto, anything you can find

You wanna see a change for tommorow
Don't you wanna see a change, just for you
You wanna see a change, before you throw it all away
Something has gotta break,
Just for you

Can't Take Anymore
Thought you could face the world
now you lost your nerve
All the things you held so close
until the tables turned
And when I tried to warn
you still you took the risk
How did I know we'd drift apart
how did I know it would come to this
Now everything is over
and it never will return
You're just a part of my life,
a memory I wanna burn
I could feel it ending
you won't face the truth

I can't live with all your lies
I can't take more of your abuse
No I can't take anymore
Don't apologize to even the score
Hypocrisy and unity,
they're not just words to me
No I can't take anymore

Want to send you a letter
just to put your mind at ease
I could write it up in the sky
I still don't think that you could see
You won't admit that it's over
you won't face the truth

I can live with all your lies
I can't take more of your abuse
No I can't take anymore
Don't apologize to even the score
Hypocrisy and unity,
they're not just words to me
No I can't take anymore

All the things you try to hide
won't wash away
All the life you took from me
you can't disguise, will never fade
So don't look for the answers
or somewhere to place the blame
There's nothing that can save you now
can't get back what you threw away
I could feel it ending
you won't face the truth

I can't live with all your lies
I can't take more of your abuse
No I can't take anymore
Don't apologize to even the score
Hypocrisy and unity,
they're not just words to me
No I can't take anymore

American Dream
Things you can't deny, you best believe it
when everything you wanted is gone
Struck down although you don't like it
nothing of value to be found
Violence breeds violence
you know we'll never stop it
for progress we will protect the game
We struck the fuse, you can't refuse it
the memory is all that will remain

The political scene coming apart at the seams
Its the end of the American Dream
The temperature is ready to burst
The future is not what it seems
For the American Dream

Time has come you know we can't stop it
You know that the end is drawing near
Knocked down the sound of it collapsing
So loud no one can hear
Mindless old tyrants do you hear the sirens song
that will herald your demise
excessive sessions on your transgressions
we're all left sifting through the lies

The political scene coming apart at the seams
Its the end of the American Dream
The temperature is ready to burst
The future is not what it seems
For the American Dream

Things you can't deny, you best believe it
when everything you wanted is gone
Struck down although you don't like it
nothing of value to be found

The political scene
coming apart at the seams
Its the end of the American Dream
The temperature is ready to burst
The future is not what it seems
For the American Dream

"Ask not what you can do for your country,
Ask what your country can do fo you"

Need More
Everything you say to me
is a lie you've lost control
All you say is just a mask for what you feel
down deep inside
And I don't care about getting your respect
not in your eyes
It's just an illusion a faded dream
of what we had and so much more

So if you wanted to ask
and I think you should know
I've given up on the past
Now I know that I need more this time

Everytime I try to make you understand
you look away
And now I know you are never going to change
you've lost control
I wanna know how you lost your self-respect
you are so blind
It's not an illusion and I can't understand why
you don't want more

So if you wanted to ask
and I think you should know
I've given up on the past
Now I know that I need more this time

Never Know
With so much bullshit
what can you believe
A million lives
all divided by greed
No way to stop it
no way to erase
what we all cannot face
Sometimes the thunder
it slowly creeps in
makes us all wonder
where did it begin
No way to stop it only it will grow
to what we will never know

I just can't believe
no way to stop it if no one can see
We gotta take control
or we will never know
Say what you wanna say
there's no tomorrow
if we don't start today
We gotta take control
or we will never know
Never Know

It's on your TV, all over the news
what does it matter
it's not happening to you
No you can't stop it
can't wish it way
And it happens more everyday
When will we stand up
when will be heard
They go on screaming
no one hears a word
No way to stop it only it will grow
to what we will never know

Badge Of Pride
All the bullshit that I see
so much I can't believe
grown man just tryin' to be
true to myself impossibly
I may not ever get rich
might wind up diggin' a ditch
I won't cry no I won't bitch
I wont back down and I'll never quit

It is my badge of pride -
hardcore 'til the day I die
just tryin' to survive
I won't back down or apologize
Say what you wanna say
I'm not listening anyway
I'll believe what I wanna believe
true to myself that's how it's gotta be

All the methods that I use
all the things I use and abuse
it all leaves me confused
I've been torn up, beat down and bruised
but somehow I was saved
and I'm standing here today
Now I do things my own way
cause I'm never going back again

All the bullshit that I see
so much I can't believe
grown man just tryin' to be
true to myself impossibly
I may not ever get rich
might wind up diggin' a ditch
I won't cry no I won't bitch
I wont back down and I'll never quit
