Burn
01:43

I’m not afraid
To say I am afraid sometimes
I live on my knees
So that you can watch me
Watch me rise
And though it looks like I stand alone
I always know to whom I can turn
I am the Defeated Decade
And I will watch the world burn

Disbelief
01:53
|

I keep trying to convey
the message that means the most to me.
But every time I look around
i stand on my own.
Violence and greed are worse than ever before
But what makes this worse for wear
No one seems to care.
i still hold on
to what I believe
I STILL SAY NO
To causing anger and grief
I stand in disbelief
I still stand behind
Every word I write
And every word I say
Stems from my disbelief
My angry heart, my angry mind,
Give me the fuel to make something of my life.
I just cannot believe
What motivates you I can't conceive
Is it fame, a bigger name?
Grab the cash and leave?
Your words lack credibility
Your songs originality
Won't even look me in the eye
Trip over your style
Choking on your words
Why do it? Why do it if your heart's not in it?
I'M NOT ALONE
How much do you truly mean?
Stand up for your scene.

Mirror
03:45
|

I take a good look
In the mirror
And I watch myself weep
For my society
Succumbs to fear
And it won’t get any better
At least they won’t get the best of me
Every day I watch the world
And every day I watch it burn
A message sanctioned by the state
Only speaks of fear and hate
When will we let it go
When will we finally know
Equality in this day and age
Walls put up by our convictions
Cast in concrete around the world
Dividing humanity
Leaving only pain and hurt
We let ourselves be terrorized
But when will we realise
The people always hold the key
We hold the key
They will never get the best of me
I´ll still die for my ideas
They will never get the Best of me
I stand free, I stand fucking free
We hold the key

I've seen you fall
Over and over
I've seen you crawl
All the way back home
But I've seen you pick yourself up
Seen you get back on your feet
I'm proud to call you my friend
I offered a helping hand in times of need
I helped you out when you were low
Positive minds in a Positive scene
Have always been my goal
Is this where the story ends
No
Young and angry nothing better to do
Oh-Four-Nine-Five hardcore crew
This is the scene that has taught me
A one life one chance mentality
One life one chance
Don't take it for granted
One life one chance
Hold out your helping hands

My Words
03:46
|
|||
I hold my breath and swallow my words
I try to speak my mind but my heart isn't sure
I look around do I stand alone
Where were you
You said you'd be here
Where is the positive message
You told us all to adhere
All I see in the world is senseless violence
This is not the way we want it to be
I have one thing to say
To the ones who try to break me
My words will remain
My message to this day
I know, I won't
I won't stand alone
No I won't stand alone
I live, today
Until things swing back my way
I won't stand alone
Someone or something please help me out
So much ignorance lingers around
Priests will tell you that you need the word of christ
Psychs will tell you you need pills to feel fine
But live life as you feel, not as you're shown
We're all living proof that you can do it on your own
I have one thing to say
To the ones who try to break me
My words will remain
My message to this day
I know, I won't
I won't stand alone
No I won't stand alone
I live, today
Until things swing back my way
I won't stand alone
You say you hate this world
I won't pretend I don't undestand you
But whilst you shut yourself in
There's still so much we could do
My words will remain
My message to this day
I stand against your rage

Severed

I may not be the person the world wants to see
I may not always have made you proud
I don't have it all figured out
But this is who I am
Faithful to myself until the end
This is who I am
Faithful to myself
I'm not the type of guy to bite the bullet when I cannot see a reason why
I envy those who care to stop and think
I keep resisting until I sink
Pushing forward
Severed the link between who I am
And who I used to be
No fear, no hate, every day I strive to educate and create
For the world to embrace this
Would be my one wish
Sever the link

Resistance
04:02
|
|||
Who will you follow
Who will you choose to lead
When there is no perspective
And the future seems so bleak
When our philosophy is a distant dream of unity
Will you choose a different path
The path of most resistance
We will resist, we will resist
We will carry this burden
We will carry on
When the thrown stones
Have lost all meaning
When the people forget
The reason for your screaming
When our philosophy is a distant dream of unity
Will you choose a different path
The path of most resistance
Resistance
We will fight back
We will resist, we will resist
We will carry this burden
We will carry on
Hold me closer hold me over the edge
Push me under the surface I scratch
Leave me hanging leave me in between
Certainty of life and certainty of misery
