You can see it in his eyes
In the way he walks and the way he talks
The kids try and break him his father violates him
But he won't wave that SOS white flag
The anger grips his fists
You can see it in his paved face look
Fall? NO WAY!
Violation Detonation
You said I was born to lose
But now I'm living to win
I've answered my beckoning call, and I'm casting the
Seven deadly sins, ON YOU!
On you, and the world that is against you
But he won't wave that SOS white flag
The anger grips his fists
You can see it in his paved face look
Fall? NO WAY!
Violation Detonation
Raise your fist and fight
Face your fears and rise
Fall? NO WAY!
Hollow, the devil's eyes
Besiege and clever lies, he'll pull you under
Won't let you up for air
Try to reason, there's no fucking answer
Try to leave he's like a fucking cancer
No conscience, he doesn't get it, doesn't get it!
He's like a cancer, he won't let go
He'll hit the bottom, and then come back for more
No surrender, repeat offender
He's got the courage, he's got the courage
Don't come calling now, when your two stone throws away from your own grave
Your back's to the wall, you're at the bottom of the well
2 bridges down, only one to burn
I'm singin' now, 3 bridges down nothing left to burn
[Chorus]
I've seen it. You said it. This town is burning down
He's living underneath. That black cloud down town
If he comes around, it thunders and it pours
Renelly makes a dirty living from cheating, double cross and stealing
Heartless, no soul, he reeks of filth so I'm told
He's like a cancer, he won't let go
He'll hit the bottom, and then come back for more
No surrender, repeat offender
He's got the courage, he's got the courage
Don't come calling now, when your two stone throws away from your own grave
Your back's to the wall, you're at the bottom of the well
2 bridges down, only one to burn
I'm singin' now, 3 bridges down nothing left to burn
I hear the barley calling my name
So I put on my best shoes and head down New St.
Where the welcome mat hurries me in
A pint glass awaits to drown my sins
Looking in the windowpane, looking in the glass.
Seeing my reflection, seeing my past
Sitting at the same bar, playing that same game
Drinking that same beer, killing that same pain
Well little Mikey was only 16
He's on top of the punk rock scene
Rasing his fist for a political fight
And he can't do wrong and only a right
And his mother can't tell him
No one can tell him
He wagered this war he's gonna win the fight
Thirty years later, still singing for tonight
[Chorus]
Saturday night, reminisce and renegade. We're on a mission to no submission.
The brigade, the youth is on the loose tonight and we shout it out loud!
Saturday night! Saturday night! Saturday night! We've got to do it right!
Saturday night! Saturday night! Saturday night! Tonight's the night!
The clock strikes 12, the sun has gone down
The party's risin' up, risin' up in your hometown
And the spirit's in the street, and the fire's in their eyes and
They're living for the moment, their passion never dies
And she looks him in the face, she said she would never leave and
Her whispers still haunt him and he still believes
[Chorus]
We'll go to the bottom of every bottle
The end of theline on every story
Those times we miss, those times we reminisce
Those were the good old days
I hold in heart and cherish. Never forget
[Chorus]
Tonight's the night we've gotta do it right!
The clock strikes 12, the sun's gone down
The party's rises up, risin' up in Burlington.
Saturday night, reminisce and renegade. We're on a mission to no submission.
Crossfire into situations time after time
We'll finish this up tonight, not somewhere down the line
I've got few good friends by my side
And they're with me till the end of this ride
We'll never know unless we try
[Chorus]
So this time, I'm not going out like this
Caught in the crossfire
I'm seeing red
I've learned my lessons well
Crossfire into confrontations
Visions seeing red
I've been thinking this over my whole life
I've never listened to the words that they said.
I mean the odds don't mean a thing to me
And if there's heart it looks good from up here and
Are we gonna win this war? We'll never know unless we try
[Chorus]
It's not your fault
That you don't know us
You took our time
We took our chances
More than a year's gone by since I lost my mother
Since she left I've thought well what's the point
I've thought well I don't know what I'm doing here
What's the point if the meaning's not clear?
But after crying, the clouds are clearing
My mother's teaching me to make a mark
You see she, she lived with pride and she, spoke her mind and
When she left, that's what she left behind
[Chorus]
The point we're missing
It's not what you had, it's how you lived
The point we're missing
It's who you were and what you did
Don't need no diamond rings
Don't need to live like kings
And I still don't know what we're doing here
Try to make a mark and make my presence clear
To challenge right wing culture and move beyond
Live for life, it's not too far gone
Exist or live, is time well spent?
And once you start thinking then you'll know
[Chorus]
It's and Iconoclast, has your moment passed?
There's time to make it right
You've got to try and to try cause there's just no giving in
I'm on the outside, on the outside looking in
I saw the battle of a lifetime
And she tried, and we tried, and we're never giving in
Because I'll see you on the bright side
[Chorus]
It's how you live and it's who you were
A good job, good home
But you chose the streets as a place to go
Taking on the uniform to wear loud and proud
But underneath it all, a teenage suburban girl
With her parents and a brother and a sister that miss her
And they can't figure out why she's not listening
[Chorus]
And she's sleeping 6 feet deep tonight
Sleeping...
She's got old bones and dirty coffins
They can't be better than broken homes
Lonely fossil lying in the cold
Unconditional love and protection from the cold
It all came down to one long cruel night
She took but one shot to the vein
And time stood still she'll never be the same
And now she realizes the streets aren't fun and games
[Chorus]
Feel the chill as time stood still
The rain came and the angels sang
I watched the people come and go
The black cars lined row by row
And Jenny's parents are left to weep
While her spirit sleeps on the concrete
[Chorus]
And it's do or die, and death or glory
When choose the streets stricken by the devils and the cheats
You ever felt like you've had the wool pulled right over your eyes?
He never ever quite figured it out which path to choose
An instinct. A gut feeling
Mind's reeling over situations
Lost into darkness he falls away again
The spotlight's on him and his life
He hears the call to make a move
But what has he got to show for nothing
I never really did learn my lessons well
You can't fight the time cause only time will tell
Sometimes I wonder if I'm hearing that...who's calling my name?
And there's something guiding me through to the end
Just take my hand
Questions with no answer
You can't stop it it's just a feeling
How fare will he go before he realizes?
The spotlight's on him, and his life
He hears the call, to make a move
But what has he got to show for nothing
You've gotta turn it around. Gotta find a way
Gotta turn around. Gotta turn it around
Gotta turn around. In the end it's the same
Gotta turn around. Gotta turn it around
And in the end it's the same
It's how you get there now
I never really did learn my lessons well
The hourglass is slipping, slipping away
She knows the clock is ticking and she knows her number is coming up
She can't shake this feeling it won't go away
And inside she's screaming and she knows the angels are coming soon
And she knows the angels are coming soon
[Chorus]
And she tries and she lies, says she's ok
Always thinking of others first
And never cries and she tries to put things off
She's still smiling, and lives for the day
And when people see her. They just look away.
They think she's just a dreamer
Cause they don't know what she's going through
She doesn't accept the sentence she battles it out
And in her mind she fights it
And then she falls asleep and thinks of her boys
And she falls asleep and thinks of her boys
[Chorus]
He counted his cards but there's nothing left in the deck
Drugs money and alcohol broke his hollow soul
Now he's on his knees screaming, self inflicted addiction
Too far gone, too far gone to take my helping hand
[Chorus]
Generation, Generation, Genocide
Kamikaze casualties are falling by my side
It's a Generation, Generation, Genocide
Kamikaze casualties are falling by my side
I'll see the sun rising
Rising up again
I wish I could say the same for my fallen friends
Well I've been there, done that, and I've walked that line
Bloode knuckles and rumbles, it's love hate with this town
I said your own friends run around town, throwing your name on the ground
No back! No spine! Ain't no friend of mine!
I've been around and I've seen the worlds collide
From the east coast to California
I'm tryin' to live this dream and the streets won't take my name
And I'll take life by the throat, fuck you!
You might think that we've got it made
And the crowd is huge and they're calling our name
But for now I'm alone in this city tonight
All alone, these city streets are cold
Do you know me? I was on TV in 1963 for armed robbery. Here's my story.
I didn't even keep the money. It's my time, my time was standing still
This deadbeat job's so stagnant. And I'm alive, still got my will
To commit crime, go down in time
And it's one last chance for glory and I've already done it in my mind
[Chorus]
We were desperate for change, to live our own way
If nothing has changed, I've got this story
I still work 9 to 5, still doing my time
If nothing has changed, I've got this story
It went down on a Tuesday, of that morning, that morning it all came down
Ski masks, sawed off shotguns
There were people, they were hitting the ground,
And no casualties, just adrenaline, it's the perfect crime in twenty
And I, I was out, before you clued in
[Chorus]
It's one last chance for glory, one last chance for me
What is the mission today?
Produce without injury, (where'd you go?)
Can you feel the steel, the steel?
It's in my mouth my hair it's in my head (where'd you go?)
I wear the scars of my own actions (where'd you go?)
Shop floor, turn up the radio.
I've got this boss, "son" he said
What are you doing here?
There's more to life, you've got much more to give
This is it for me. Don't end up in here
If I'm the first mother fucker in
I'm the last mother fucker to leave (where'd you go?)
I'm tired of working for the weekend and that sip of beer (where'd you go?)
I wear the scars of my own actions (where'd you go?)
Shop floor, turn up the radio.
I've got this boss, "son" he said
What are you doing here?
There's more to life, you've got much more to give
This is it for me. Don't end up in here
Have I wasted all these years?
No there's no reason, it's just not clear
No son, you've made an impact on our lives
You and your friends remember...
This is it for me. Don't end up in here.
Intertwined around your sticky fingers I fall
Into the traps you lay, yeah the traps you lay
You slipped inside my head
I washed my thoughts. Unthinkable
You won't resurrect me
You can't resurrect me
I won't die for you and I won't kill for you
You won't resurrect me
I felt your heat, I felt it colder than ice
Like your red glazed eyes burning in the back of my head
You feed and twist until I fall and I fall
Into the black scarred skies and your bloody sunsets
You won't resurrect me
You can't resurrect me
I won't die for you and I won't kill for you
You won't resurrect me
A blackened room, Richmond 2001
A whiskey poison brings out the evil one
A crucifixion, suffocation of mind
A bad religion to set the outlines
Tossing, turning, are you one of the damned?
I won't give in, no I'm not giving in
You won't resurrect me
You can't resurrect me
I won't die for you and I won't kill for you
We falter, forgive, when the hinges break
We spiral, impact, and watch the high chairs fall
Using all defence, they drew us inside their curfews
Breaking hold of functions, mark my words,
No regrets
But a kiss still finds, it's way out of, of a chainlink fence
Did we stand a chance?
We turn to face the rules that we imposed
We closed our eyes and turned our heads mark my words
We turn to face the rules that we imposed
We closed our eyes, we closed our eyes and turned our heads
Falter, forgive, when the hinges break
Spiral, impact, watch the high chairs fall
Using all defence, they drew us inside their curfews
Mark my words, no regrets, to combat, no remorse
We turn to face the rules that we've imposed
We closed our eyes and turned our heads, did we?
As the cold floor screams attention (determination......) I observe reactions with tears (......to make us see). Apologies for broken halo's and imperfection, broken wings mend. This fall (problems solve......).
This fall where words vanish (......thoughts awake) and problems solve like fallen angels. A new concept (and coldness......). What keeps me seated (the winter of my heart), rooms warm with familiar voice.
To the stairs with hands that pull, they find no resistance. Shirts ripped and tears, I have no time to choose my words, that break pictures and wet eyes.
To keep my eyes open takes your faces (for you). This glass in my head (without a reason) resounds and echoes. With each dream that screams and dies, with each of your words my head looks up.
Its not the fear of seeing new days, but it's the fear of seeing your eyes
Full of august promises and september curses
And helping your hands with wayward stabbings
Flick throw these matches I'll ignite and rise
To dress you in flames and reel around your ashes
In cowardice speak her name tear this writing from this page
And watch me claim this crime
If i could steal you're waking, then i would hang you on the strings
You'd stay cutting all the words,making circles with your feet
Poison on top of fracture lines, passive where no one interupts
Today we breathed in this towns air
And conjured illness to escape beaten walls
And how long will you stand aside perfecting this abandonment?
Today we breathed this towns air
And conjoured illness to escape
Beaten walls and last chances
Like words I read your smiles. With sight these guilty viles.
To bleed we shall match.I speak these words you need.
These inches from you add miles (tears witheld....) and insults.
Overhead a friction (....unthought of until now) fuels a flight that rips through sound and our hands. It makes (to make way....) our actions (....for silence) undefined.
Fade.... Their whispers amount to nothing now, this payed through you walk....
....Through the cracks of their hands. Always, always.
We shall be blessed with these three times.
We shall be blessed, left in disrepair.
Bind me from harm (tears withheld....),
As you move to forget (....unthought of until now) that I never stop, when nothing seems to change. I know hope never unties itself from you (to home and welcome the fall).
Andrea does her dance on sidewalks building fires
And tying us to lights and rythms fighting to ignore the shapes she throws
Fighting our way through our critics, we memorised this taste
Taking breaths through tiny lungs
In these nights we steal liquids from bottles
That bleed all over this white sheet
We spend to much time in sleeps arms
Drown in maria all of us students
Tonight my eyes won't close, the absolution is too late. And so are my words as they travel to you, they give the wrong sign. They give the wrong sign (sense/direction). I showed you the way out.
Your smile gives me assurance, we are poets of indecision. Bound to past mistakes that lead us miles apart, and I give the word that drives. Tonight (I know) my eyes won't close. This is how it is without you.
I think about (sense/direction) how my (anticipation) agreements have worked against me.
Three days left and as last weekend passes by, I can see the sun coming up for us soon. I'll never be faded away. My love.
We burn this town while your feet trapse through the landfills, eyes blind, eyes blind. As fallacy rules...
From caskets to cavalcades with rain-making blankets. Trapping nerves of common coins as cars make melodies. We bury this spear together in the sides of idles without consent following, stalking chalk-white outlines in the floor with your nails broken. These streets shall forget us while they trapse through the landfills. Eyes blind, eyes blind.
Become this death as spite leaves your tongue, when double meanings kill my interest. This new mind (someone take my hand) will have it's new hand to wash away your mistakes with blood.
All you are is words you speak, to hide wounds from angelic eyes.
Last words won't stop your world from burning, so read this picture of what you are. I am blessed in ways of silence and how your kingdom, the victim, shall inherit.
From the book of youth; (with faded pages....) stay closed, lessed this spine crack and reveal (....I remember shoulderlength summers). From the book of youth; stay closed, lessed this spine crack and reveal.
I must have done something wrong in my life
For all the pain and thoughts that I can’t move on
It must be a curse that no spell can reverse
That’s what I thought until another stranger came along
Now here we are
Writing letters to each other
With sweet words
We know we’ve said and hurt before
But it’s you
You made the difference and it’s true
In you, I’ve found the one who would let me be
Like for a bird to fly you set it free
Hold on and watch as I move to your direction
And you got me as soon as our eyes met
Like for the moon to rise the sun sets
Hold on and look at the same direction
You found love
Ooohhh
You found love
I spent my time wondering what I should do
I’d get keep searching and I have been waiting
Now it’s a curse that has been reversed
It’s not what I thought
You are the stranger that came along
Now here we are
Writing letters to each other
With sweet words
We know we’ve said and hurt before
But it’s you
You made the difference and it’s true
In you, I’ve found the one who would let me be
Like for a bird to fly you set it free
Hold on and watch as I move to your direction
And you got me as soon as our eyes met
Like for the moon to rise the sun sets
Hold on and look at the same direction
You found love
Ooohhh
And I know now it wasn’t me
It’s just wasn’t meant to be
In you, I’ve found the one who would let me be
Like for a bird to fly you set it free
Hold on and watch as I move to your direction
And you got me as soon as our eyes met
Like for the moon to rise the sun sets
Hold on and look at the same direction
You found love
ooohhh
Here I am, standing close to you
And it's still so far away,
So many times, I tried to say,
But my heart was afraid
Look at you is all that I can do,
Like a silly girl, I stare
'Coz you might leave me when I reveal,
What my heart is really feeling
CHORUS
If I could just say the words,
All the secrets in my heart and in my soul you'll hear,
Will you take me in your arms or let me go,
Our lovely days will they just fade like whispers in the wind?
If I could just say the words,
All the secrets in my heart and in my soul you'll hear,
Can't you see the love I hide slip through my eyes,
This silly girl so scared she just can't say "I Love you."
III.
Here I am, holding on to fate,
What we have may never change
'Coz you might leave me when I reveal,
My lips will seal the love I'm hiding.
(Repeat Chorus)
If I could just say the words,
All the secrets in my heart and in my soul you'll hear,
Can't you see the love I hide slip through my eyes,
Di Lang Ikaw Lyrics
Pansin mo ba ang pagbabago?
Di matitigan ang iyong mga mata
Tila di na nananabik
Sa iyong yakap at halik
Sana'y malaman mo
Hindi sinasadya
Kung ang nais ko ay maging Malaya
Chorus:
Di lang ikaw
Di lang ikaw ang nahihirapan
Damdamin ko rin ay naguguluhan
Di lang ikaw
Di lang ikaw ang nababahala
Bulong ng isip wag kang pakawalan
Juris Di Lang Ikaw lyrics found on
Ngunit puso ko ay kailangan kang iwan
Pansin mo ba ang nararamdaman
Di na tayo magkaintindihan
Tila hindi na maibabalik
Tamis ng yakap at halik
Maaring tama ka lumalamig ang pagsinta
Sana'y malaman mong di ko sinasadya
*Repeat Chorus
Di hahayaang habang buhay kang saktan
Di sasayangin ang iyong panahon
Ikaw ay magiging Masaya
Sa yakap at sa piling ng iba
I have been here many times
I have been on the edge for a while
Looking for something but don't know if it's coming oohh
I have both forgotten memories
And sometimes I dreamt of how these smiles
Here I go again
Asking myself a thousand questions
And here I go again
Telling myself a thousand lies
If you'd just listen, listen to me
Dear you
It feels like getting hurt is my second nature
Dear you
I feel like I'm a failure
I may love you much just let me get to learning
Where are you now
Dear you, dear you
I'll be high and I'll be low
And I will be anything just to get to talk to you
They told me that love was magical ang grand oohh
But nothing compared to what they say
If only I get to hold your hand
Here I go again
Asking myself a thousand questions
And here I go again
Telling myself a thousand lies
If you'd just listen, listen to me
Dear you
It feels like getting hurt is my second nature
Dear you
I feel like I'm a failure
I may love you much just let me get to learning
Where are you now
Dear you
It feels like getting hurt is my second nature
Dear you
I feel like I'm a failure
I may love you much just let me get to learning
Where are you now
Dear you, dear you
