Burning Away 03:31
Tell me something you have tried, You're existence based on lies, Burning through life just like a cigarette, Don't look back, don't have no regrets, Just remember who you were at the time. Adolescent thoughts none had, Everything is for a laugh, Burning through life just like a cigarette, Don't look back, don't have no regrets, Just remember who you were at the time. Don't you want to stop what's going on? Unity and peace all in a song You give your opinion, it's ignored, Expecting to be told. Living my life in suspense, Never sitting on the fence, Burning through life just like a cigarette, Don't look back, don't have no regrets, Just remember who you were at the time. Don't you want to stop what's going on? Unity and peace all in a song You give your opinion, it's ignored, Expecting to be told.

I Am Gone 03:56
I wake up in the morning I look outside and it's snowing That cold breeze, it hit's my face Another routine and another disgrace And you're lying there smiling Pretending we are the best thing But the truth is we're bored, we just can't ignore We can't go through this anymore Now everybody says that this is it We just sat and we watched as this fell to bits Now I will feel redemption And I, no I am gone You were always right, I was always wrong And I, no I am gone And I aint ever coming back to you These days are a difference My memories are distant this is the life, and this is for me I've the ability to do as I please Nobody to tell me Nobody to shun me You've put me down for far too long You are gone now I can move on Now everybody says that this is it We just sat and we watched as this fell to bits Now I will feel redemption And I, no I am gone You were always right, I was always wrong And I, no I am gone And I aint ever coming back And I aint ever coming back to you And I, no I am gone You were always right, I was always wrong And I, no I am gone And I aint ever coming back No I aint ever coming back No I'm never coming back to you

Last Chance 03:30
Regretting nothing but What I've been told The only thing that is for certain is that I am getting old Questioning everything Always willing to last I think that this chance might be the last Your story is more fucked up than mine I'd listen, but I just don't have the time Knowledge is everything What have you learned? All these wasted moments you had You were quite content Questioning everything Always willing to last I think that this chance might be the last Your story is more fucked up than mine I'd listen, but I just don't have the time Understanding what you have been through There's nothing I can do And now you have grown up, the truth is lost Making bad decisions in which paths have been crossed Borderline insane On you I'm giving up Sometimes I think One day you will keep your shit together when you drink Now you have made your bed I hate to say Not getting one bit of sympathy Your story is more fucked up than mine I'd listen, but I just don't have the time Understanding what you have been through There's nothing I can do

When you're walking down the road There's a set of eyes on you When you think you're alone They will hunt you down Their watching your actions Their watching your moves Then they find you slip and they come for you Their gonna find a way Their gonna find a way to you Their gonna find a way Their gonna find a way to you And everybody thinks That their gonna keep you safe CCTV is protection It sees what it see, It lives to be true But in the wrong hands they will come for you Their gonna find a way Their gonna find a way to you Their gonna find a way Their gonna find a way to you The neck will turn to left The neck will turn to right When it sees you, You are in sight The focus is zoomed The targets in sight Hunting begins and into the night Their gonna find a way Their gonna find a way to you Their gonna find a way Their gonna find a way to you Their eyes Are watching Big brothers watching you My eyes Are open Big brothers watching you Their gonna find a way Their gonna find a way Their gonna find a way Their gonna find a way to you

Johnny has a problem Johnny is out of control He had a TV party With the kids of the black hole Stealing people's mail And lynching the landlord Things to do when angry, young and bored Johnny was only a lad Johnny hates the scene First he hit an old man Then he hit and run Pauline The record player spinning the best times I never had So why do my old records make me sad? Cause they're so bad And no one seems to understand The glory of guitar When out of tune The off timing The singers who can't sing The beauty of flaw He's a teenage vegetable Listens to last resort He's got PCP in his veins He lives inside a quart Johnny is a punk rocker Johnny is he queer? Johnny needed two bags And a car to commandeer Johnny wasn't liked much But he had a lot of friends Waits on stage eating ludes A brainless mind-washed pig Johnny was a good man Till the day that he got shot He had a jacked up chevy That could blow you off the spot Johnny always needs More than he takes Forgets a couple chords Forgets a couple breaks Johnny says he's bound By only six strings to this world Johnny Quest hates sellout bands And Johnny Punk snorts Ritalin And Johnny is an angry amputee
