Waiting 03:31
Waiting This generation is dead inside Controlled by optics Look at the ground and don’t say sorry Mind annihilation, you’re left aside Can't think yourself You’re left alone, so fucking blinded Each generation will always change Doesn’t have to make you Follow like sheep to the slaughter You continue behind your wall Nameless faces dead inside And I won’t say sorry, will I? You’re waiting, you’re waiting, left out all alone You’re waiting, you’re waiting, left out all alone You’re waiting, you’re waiting, left out all alone You’re waiting, you’re waiting, left out all alone This generation is dead inside Controlled by optics Look at the ground and don’t say sorry Mind annihilation, you’re left aside Can't think yourself You’re left alone, so fucking blinded

Working Poor 04:16
Working Poor You wake up in the morning, another restless sleep You look inside the mirror and what do you see? You pour yourself a cup of tea and think about the day You put your boots on your feet and head right down your street Walk right in, punch the clock, dread another shift Stick it out, hear the whistle blow, not yet time to go Pour yourself a cup of tea, near the end of day Punch the clock, out the door, and head back down your street Another day is gone Another day is gone You wake up in the morning, another restless sleep You look inside the mirror and what do you see? You pour yourself a cup of tea and think about the day Put your boots on your feet and head right down your street Another day is gone Another day is gone

We Decide 03:47
We Decide Twist the truth and bend the rules You gotta make it stick You act that way, but nothing’s done But we still gotta pay Deny our say and step on us Pull it over our face Time is right, you make your move You got nothing to lose The streets are paved, we don't walk alone Don’t get in our way Side by side we walk in stride We decide What’s wrong, what’s right, what’s it’s in our minds We shout out Can't destroy that voice inside Blue collar pride One day, someday, we’ll have our say Never listen, distorting the truth Media lies control, voice denied Where is your dignity? All you do is bend the truth They try to sell us lies Tell you what you want, can't hear what we say They try to tell us lies Can't take away our pride, we walk side by side Let’s go now Twist the truth and bend the rules You gotta make it stick You act that way, but nothing’s done But we still gotta pay Deny our say and step on us Pull it over our face Time is right, you make your move You got nothing to lose One day, someday, we’ll have our say Never listen, distorting the truth Media lies control, voice denied Where is your dignity? All you do is bend the truth One day, someday, we’ll have our say Never listen, distorting the truth Media lies control, voice denied Where is your dignity? All you do is bend the truth

Tumbling Down Why are we left with nothing? I don’t see no change All you do is run and hide Up the taxes you decide Raise the prices, hike the tax Gouge a little more Make for certain We remain the working poor Why are we left with nothing? I don’t see no change All you do is run and hide Up the taxes you decide Raise the prices, hike the tax Gouge a little more Make for certain We remain the working poor When the walls come tumbling down When the world comes crashing in When the walls come tumbling down When the world comes crashing in

Alone [Live] 10:01
ALONE What it’s like to feel love, what it’s like to feel hate From the bottom of my glass, to the scars upon my fists But I can’t see too clear, through my clouded mind And I don’t feel too good, and I can’t remember why What it’s like to feel hate, what it’s like to feel rage And I don’t want to be kicked around, pushed, knocked down And I can get too close, fear that I could snap And it all points to you, tormented mind You left me bloody on the ground, beat down and all alone No one else around, alone, alone, alone Bloody on the ground, beat down and all alone No one else around, alone, alone, alone What it’s like to feel love, what it’s like to feel hate From the bottom of my glass, to the scars upon my fists But I can’t see too clear, through my clouded mind And I don’t feel too good, and I can’t remember why Beat down, beat down, never give up, never give up Beat down, beat down, never give up, never give up You left me bloody on the ground, beat down and all alone No one else around, alone, alone, alone Bloody on the ground, beat down and all alone No one else around, alone, alone, alone Bloody on the ground, beat down and all alone No one else around, alone, alone, alone Bloody on the ground, beat down and all alone No one else around, alone, alone, alone

The Crow In a field with gloom all around I hear them fighting for their lives The crow up high sits and waits Fallen soldier Crows make no mistakes Dark clouds and blackened skies Storm front nears through tiny eyes The crow up high sits and waits Fallen soldier Crows make no mistakes Crows are watching, mothers don’t let your boys march Crows are watching, mothers don’t let your boys march In a field with gloom all around I hear them fighting for their lives The crow up high sits and waits Fallen soldier Crows make no mistakes Crows are watching, mothers don’t let your boys march Crows are watching, mothers don’t let your boys march
