Another Door 03:10
Another Door Another door is slamming shut Way too many policies I wish I could… But I lost the key No More government policies So many bridges I have to cross Careful not to burn them down I wish I could… but I lost the key No more government polices Another door slams right in your face Another door is slamming shut Way too many policies I wish I could… But I lost the key No More government policies Another door slams right in your face In your Face

Rat Race 04:03
Rat Race You never had a chance to get ahead No education Got pushed down from the start Not many options Stuck in the middle and you can get out Caught in the Rat Race Built up rage you scream and shout… Stuck in the same wage Not sure what the future holds just trying to get buy Don’t try to kick me down I’ll keep my head-up I wish there was an easier way I’ll learn to live with At least I have my fuck’en pride Subculture dignity It’s the same dance that we fight for… I’m telling you it’s not enough Unanswered questions surrounding me I’m telling you it’s not enough You never had a chance to get ahead No education Got pushed down from the start Not many options Stuck in the middle and you can get out Caught in the Rat Race Built up rage you scream and shout… Stuck in the same wage It’s the same dance that we fight for… I’m telling you it’s not enough Unanswered questions surrounding me I’m telling you it’s not enough You can’t take away our pride Our strength has built up a wall You can’t take away our pride Cause it’s all we got, and we’ll fight for it You can’t take away our pride Our strength has built up a wall You can’t take away our pride Cause it’s all we got, and we’ll fight for it Caught in the Race Rat

Night Terror 03:51
Night Terror Deep in another place as the world shuts down No time to think all I do is scream Terror in my eyes flashing all around Nowhere to go keep on moving on In a World that never sleeps you can’t imagine worse Wake up in a pool of sweat and tears Find you in the dark feed upon your fears Make no mistake you’re locked into this state Cause I have walked with giants strolled in open space Things before my eyes they remind me of my past I have walked with giants can’t forget my past Smash the shadows around me there’s no turning back Deep in another place as the world shuts down No time to think all I do is scream Terror in my eyes flashing all around Nowhere to go keep on moving on Cause I have walked with giants strolled in open space Things before my eyes they remind me of my past I have walked with giants can’t forget my past Smash the shadows around me there’s no turning back Cause I have walked with giants strolled in open space Things before my eyes they remind me of my past I have walked with giants can’t forget my past Smash the shadows around me there’s no turning back

Silence Many won't see... see… Another day Choices they make... take our friends away Life gets tough.... Nothing you can do Fight the stress... Silence... not for you. Thinks get rough... It happens once again Short cold shock... Can't see no end Walk away... Think about yourself Beat it back... Silence not for you Silence... In your mind Silence... In your head Silence... Dark as night Silence... It's no end We won’t let...Let it take you down Do you think... we'd let you walk away Don't react...reaction to the call Fight the stress... Silence not the way Silence... In your mind Silence... In your head Silence... Dark as night Silence... It's no end

Hell In A Handbag Mother... Don’t let them take me down I fight tooth and claw and their screams don’t make a sound Mother... My world has come undone I preach by day but my nights are stained with blood Mother... Don’t leave me all alone A flash of pain and the sounds of screams ring out Mother... I know the choice was mine I took the shot now I’m running out of time You’re off to Hell… You’re going to Hell… Straight to Hell Hell in a Hand Bag Mother... I Don’t know what to do The demon is close and now it hunts for you Mother... Don’t judge my evil crime I’m cold and weak and I haven’t got much time You’re off to Hell… You’re going to Hell… Straight to Hell Hell in a Hand Bag Mother... Don’t let them take me down I fight cross and nail but it always lets me down Mother... Please don’t let me die My soul is lost and I’m running out of time You’re off to Hell… You’re going to Hell… Straight to Hell Hell in a Hand Bag

about

Following a very impressive and critically acclaimed debut 12” MLP in 2013, this full-length album picks up right where that left off.

At the core, the songs on "Pressure" are similar, but with a noticeable growth and maturation to them. The lyrics continue to be bold and ask questions of our society while extolling the traditions and pride of punk rock culture and accountability to each other through unity
