Who Are You

Who are you, who are you
To believe that you can tell me what to think or what to do
Who are you, who are you
Better step aside because now I'm coming through
Since 1977
You keep the gates so pure and clean
You talk and talk but I'm not listening to you
trying to exercise control
Who are you, who are you
To believe that you can tell me what to think or what to do
Who are you, who are you
Better make some space because now I'm coming through
Behind your dress of studded leather
Lies a narrow minded point of view
Your mind has stalled, defied progression
And now you're living in the past
So watch me pass you by so fast
Fuck you, fuck you,
you can never tell me what to think
Fuck you, fuck you,
you can never tell me what to do

No Way Out
01:38
|
|

Stuck in a rat race while
Slowly getting ground
You hate your job but
The mortgage must be paid
No way out, no way out
Yeah you've lost your way out
Some weekend getaways,
Vacation once a year
Is this your life now?
Is this what you dreamt of?
The grip gets tighter,
Everyday it's worse
All dreams are long gone
You're longing for a noose

Oh No! They revealed my secret
On a message board.
I'm part of an evil cabal,
Intergalactic overlord
I tried so hard but they found the clues
On a Dollar bill
Illuminati, pyramid eye,
All you heard is true
I'm a Shape Shifter
Shape shape, shift shift
I'm a lizard, I'm a man
I'm a part of a secret plan
I like to shape shift, shape it my baby
You know you shift so good
You know you shift so fine
Shape shift a little closer
And let me know you're mine
I'm a Shape Shifter
Shape shape, shift shift

I Don't Care/Know

Am I doing this okay?
What would Karl Marx say?
What do all these people think?
Why does this place stink?
I don't care
I don't know
I don't care about your rules
I don't know your dress code
Punk is no exclusive club
You are not its gatekeeper

Out Of Time

I know
You know it
Everybody knows
We're fucked
So long
Thanks for nothing
What a ride
what a pity
That the whole world's gonna end
Hope you packed your last meal cause now
the tide is rising up and we are going down down down
We're out of time, we got nowhere to go
Bad luck
Bad timing
Didn't think I'd live to see the day
The ship is sinking
And the useless captains are all gone
What a ride
What a pity
That the whole world's gonna end
Hope you packed your last meal cause now
the tide is rising up and we are going down down down

A deadly pandemic
World powers run by dickheads
Everyday the same tradmill
Barely alive, dragging myself
Through the same bullshit everyday
Then a random dude tells me to smile
Fuck no!
I really got no reason to.
And I don't care if you think I'd look nicer that way
Fuck you, fuck your opinion! Don't talk to me!
Why can't you just leave people alone?

Nice Guys Finish Best
02:12
|
|
||
|
I've heard the same trash way too many times by now
People whining 'bout "the friend zone"
And that "nice guys finish last"
It's time you realize no one ever owes you sex
Not for showing basic manners or for listening to someone.
Nice guys finish best
Women don't owe you, women don't owe you
If you're really such a nice guy there were things that you would know
Like respect for other people and that no still means no
Women don't owe you an explanation
So before you start complaining rather think about your act

Egoistic
narcisstic
You love no one but yourself
Not Listening
To anyone
Your own opinion
Is all that you need
You don’t care
You just dont care
No sympathy
No empathy
You love no one but yourself
You think that
You know Everything
While in fact
You have no clue
You don’t care
You dont fucking care
You're straining everyone around you
You're a burden to anyone but yourself
You're not better than anyone
You're straining everyone around you

You get your morning coffee to go
You fly away for a weekend trip
Electricity from the nuclear plant
You always buy the cheapest meat
The price that you don't pay
Someone else pays it for you
The price that you don't pay
Someone else has got to pay
Someone else has got to pay
Your brand new sneakers were so cheap
Your shirt's flown in from Bangladesh
Your breakfast avocado
Was watered with an activists blood
But that you don't want to know for sure

This is a nightmare
It's only getting worse
Trapped in my own mind with no chance to escape
Avolition is everything I own
Aimless thoughts are racing,
Can't call them to a halt
I'm always tired
But I never fall asleep
Instead I'm drowning in all my broken dreams
I don't feel joy
And I don't feel any pain
My life's all senseless and I am left in void
This is a nightmare
It's only getting worse
Trapped in my own mind with no chance to escape
Avolition is everything I own
Aimless thoughts are racing,
Can't call them to a halt
Dark Prospects
Dark Prospects

Wrecking Ball

Walked down the street the other day
Had my swagger on display
Saw an office, tried blocking my way
Pushed him aside said: "Not today!"
Drive my head right through this wall
Tear it down, tear it down
Come into this room like a wrecking ball
Tear it down, tear it down
Drive my head right through this wall
Tear it down, tear it down
And I won't stop until I see it fall
Tear it down, tear it down
Cool dude at the punk rock show
Told me what I can and cannot do
Showed him his place, now don't you know
Kicked his ass right out of the door

We Are Doomed
02:23

So the only certain thing in life is uncertainty
We don't know where we are going, we don't know where this will lead
We're just blindly stumbling forward and we try to find a way
Life should be more than survival, but it's not on every day
And we feel like we are doomed
And we know that we are doomed
And we feel like we are doomed
Staying true to ourselves is getting harder everyday
Searching for that inner spark and for what made us feel alive
We are waiting for all things to change but not expecting that
And as clouds darken the sky we feel a heavy sense of dread
