Bloodsuckers 03:05
This is not another song About the fucking cold concrete It’s about some other things That felt my blood All year long, I was dealing with People who tried to take advantage of me Tried to take everything Leave me with nothing Slowly I learned what was happening And I knew it was time for change Slowly weeding certain people out Those who tried to ruin my life They won’t come around anymore Soon I will be happy Now much later everything is different Going back to the way things were Finally, I can live stress free Finally, I can be happy It’s all for the better now Finally, I’m happy

Look at yourself You’re not yourself Only the image Of what they want you to be Once unique, now a clone Of what’s in magazines And on TV screens Pressured by media And lemmings for peers You walk off the plank Lost yourself to fear The mirror won’t lie But it’s blocking the truth Dig past the surface You’ll find the real you There’s more to life Than just fitting in Not being yourself? That’s the real sin Fuck what they say Fuck what they say Fuck what they say There’s only one you Don’t follow the flock because they are all doomed
3.
Asking you a question You took it the wrong way I slid into your DMs It’s exactly what you said Now you threaten me For no good fucking reason I tried to work with you But this is fucking treason Is this how you treat customers? Don’t you wanna make a sale? Fuck this! I don’t want anything Anything from you Now it’s fucking awkward When you come around The vibes that I’m feeling Are bringing me down Complimenting you Turned 180 on me Now there’s fucking poison In my I.V. Is this how you treat community? What a fucking joke Fuck this! I don’t want anything To do with you P.S. Where’s the print that I asked for?

I remember Or maybe I don’t Careless decisions I’ve made And things I’ve said That may have been hurtful To those I love And what would I do? Blame it on the sauce! Sometimes I thought Man, this is great But was it really? No, fuck no! Lying, stealing, fighting Fuck, I know I was a mess Endangering myself and others Put this shit to rest! Looking back at how I would Blame it on the sauce! But I’ve come so far No more will I Blame it on the sauce! Blame it on the sauce!

I’m a full grown fetus man I’m as stupid as a clam Don’t really know where I am In this world I don’t understand We’re programmed to be this way We’re destroying everything Look at the last 100 years We’ve brought nothing but more tears And a few more big time fears Our future’s becoming clear Everything will burn! Everything will burn! I don’t think I wanna see What goes on in 2023 Have we lost all feeling? Watching our whole planet bleed Everything will burn! Everything will burn!

The Fallen 02:09
This goes out to All my friends That I’ve lost To overdoses It kills me To see them go like this I just wish I could have saved them One too many times I’m not desensitized It still hurts me every single day Looking back I Wish I could have said Something that would save them But now I can’t Sometimes I tried But it was always hidden I never knew how bad it was Until it was too late I hope you’re all happy Free from your depression In a better place I still miss you every day I wish you never left us I miss you every day I wish you never left us Now I’m listening

Creeper 02:11
Every time you holler Do you even Think about what you say? How do you not Even notice That your words Makes them stay away? The way you approach them Makes them deny The affection you want to feed There’s no reason To be angry When they will not Let you plant your seed You always try too hard. It’ll get you nowhere, don’t you see? You will get no respect for your endless misogyny! Just because you want them Doesn’t mean That they’ll express the same Lashing out From their rejection Makes your behavior The only one to blame You only call them dirty All because You are not who they need The word is spread now So no one will Ever accept your plead You always try too hard. It’ll get you nowhere, don’t you see? You will get no respect for your endless misogyny! GO!!!

You swear that you will pay your dues But day by day, you brush it off Your time to pay is always wasted Put the money in the bag! No matter how much you were told To pay up as you said you would Your broken trust has made me jaded Put the money in the bag! And every time you cash your checks Instead of paying off your debts You waste it on your luxuries Put the money in the bag! You brush off your necessities So your dues will rise up and more From your lack of conformity Put the money in the bag! When you lash out when you’re told That your high debts are overdue You show your poor audacity Put the money in the bag! The more your careless spendings rise The more you’ll end up in the red From your lack of security Put the money in the bag!

Speedball 02:27
Cruising down the highway At breakneck speeds Pushing it faster Fulfills this need Pedal to the metal To go full throttle Push it to the limit Take it over the maximum Driving faster Than Speedy Gonzales Driving faster Than Sonic the Hedgehog This ain’t NASCAR This is the public streets The cops can’t catch up They have been beat It’s a criminal crave to have a need for speed It’s hard to hit the brakes when it’s a habit to feed The drive to go fast is such a dangerous blast Whenever driving slow, get the fuck off the left lane! Never need to slow down Keep it over 100 When it’s bumper to bumper It’s such a burden With the increasing temptation To start a fender bender Getting off to road rage Slowing down is a killer Driving faster Than Lightning McQueen Driving faster Than Herbie the Love Bug This ain’t NASCAR This is the interstate The cops can’t catch up They’ve been put in their place It’s a criminal crave to have a need for speed It’s hard to hit the brakes when it’s a habit to feed The drive to go fast is such a dangerous blast Whenever driving slow, get the fuck off the left lane!

Why does it have to be this way? Broken glass and shattered dreams That is the way it seems to me Take the right road in the wrong direction Later realize you fucked up Everything you ever hoped for Was taken away By the fucked up society We live in today Why does it have to be this way? Things like this just make us want to Give up but I never will Somehow I will find a way to overcome These obstacles and I Will do what I must This world sucks They try to make things harder every day So they can can stay on top But I will never stop It doesn’t have to be this way

Dark Abyss 01:57
Don’t tell me that you’re A true friend to me If you refuse to help me In an emergency Would you not care if I drive a bullet to my own head? You preach advocacy For those who are in need But when it comes to me You have no urgency Would you not care if you found me laying on the floor dead? You never cared when I was left alone! You never cared when I voiced my suffering! You never cared when I was lost! You said you cared But you refused to help out When I was dragged Through the thorns and the flames So I must climb Out of this dark abyss from death! Don’t say that you will Help your friends see the light If you’re gonna leave me In the dust and the dark Would you not care if my life was at an all time low? You say that you have Been through worse than me But when I’m left on the edge You leave me in a lapse Would you not care if I fall and took a hard blow? You never cared when I was left alone! You never cared when I voiced my suffering! You never cared when I was lost! You said you cared But you refused to help out When I was dragged Through the thorns and the flames So I must climb Out of this dark abyss from death!

No Shame 00:31
Do you have no shame for the damage you’ve done? Do you have no shame for the people you’ve hurt? Do you have no shame for the friends you’ve lost? Do you have no shame? Will you ever learn? Society disowned you! You won’t be forgiven! You get no other chances! All I gotta ask is Do you have no shame for the damage you’ve done? Do you have no shame for the people you’ve hurt? Do you have no shame for the friends you’ve lost? Do you have no shame? Will you ever learn?

This is our generic pop punk song We play the same three chords over and over Listen to Drew play the same 4/4 beats That everyone does, yeah This is a ticket to our fame Yeah, we’re gonna sell out Just like Blink-182 Because we know this song will hit you You’ll be singing it until fall asleep, yeah Eating our pop punk recipe We can’t wait to go on tour Basement shows are cool but we want more So we’ll get signed to a major label With some sweet ass merch, yeah Seeing our fans wear our t-shirts At every show we play Oh yeah, it’s the punk rock way Seeing our CDs on display in all the stores Next, we’ll see our name on the top 40 chart, yeah And realize it’s not just art It’s a masterpiece By the way, I hope you know I’m just kidding about this, bro Our whole scene’s about community and friends, yeah Helping each other until the end So fuck those corporate fucks We are not out here for fame I think selling out is lame We’re out here to see our friends and make some noise, yeah So fuck those fake ass punk rock toys Put them back on the shelf

Your attempts to manipulate What’s processed inside of me Is nothing for me to take When you let out your insanity Your anger, your bitterness Drives up my anxiety Your tendency to use me Drags me into misanthropy Goodbye! So long! Farewell, and good riddance to you! Goodbye! So long! Farewell, and good riddance to you! No longer will I take this abuse from your hands Goodbye! So long! Farewell, and good riddance to you! The nightmares induced in me Is what drains my sensory Your language is a filthy plague When you speak your words vaguely The patterns you never change Doesn’t give you a light to see Your toxicity and negativity Is a disgrace to society Goodbye! So long! Farewell, and good riddance to you! Goodbye! So long! Farewell, and good riddance to you! No longer will I take this abuse from your mind Goodbye! So long! Farewell, and good riddance to you! I find it fucked up that you called me your best friend when you always treated me like shit! You always threw me under the bus! You were always impatient with me! You blamed me for your problems or dragged me into them! You were very negative about my choices and habits! I should’ve realized your true colors a long time ago! I can’t be around any of this anymore! No more! No more!!! NO!!! Goodbye! So long! Farewell, and good riddance to you! Goodbye! So long! Farewell, and good riddance to you! No longer will I take this abuse from you now Goodbye! So long! Farewell, and good riddance to you! Goodbye! So long! Farewell, and good riddance to you! Goodbye! So long! Farewell, and good riddance to you! FUCK!!!
