the world has gone to hell
and there's no time left to tell
adults and kids at war
do you want to know more?
Maybe what we need
Is a fresh start with a fresh breed
A whole new way to live
Cause who gives a shit?
We don't really want to try but uh
Maybe we could do something new
And if it sucks we'll say
Fuck you fuck you fuck you fuck you
the world has gone to hell
and there's no time left to tell
adults and kids at war
do you want to know more?
Why do old people have to be so old
Ruining all our fun
Time to run away
Towards the teen horizon
We don't really want to try but uh
Maybe we could just do something new
And if it sucks we'll say
Fuck you fuck you fuck you fuck you
Fort Teen Fort Teen it's where I wanna go

Your number's come up
And it's your name
Play by the rules
You don't know the game
Just looking for help
But you're who's to blame
Statistic battalion
Going to war
You left all you love
Don't ask what for
Leaving a hero
Come back ignored
You never thought it would be like this
Taking a vacation in a foreign ditch
Weren't they supposed to protect you
You're head's on the ground
Under a boot
Are you questioning those who lead?
Fear what you believe
Look in the mirror
And see a friend
Take a walk outside
They see a trend
People who like you
Whose freedom might end
You never thought it would be like this
Taking a vacation in a foreign ditch
Weren't they supposed to protect you
You're head's on the ground
Under a boot
They're trying to objectify you
Are you objecting to what they do?

Fight what
Is inside you
Consciousness
Allows us
A choice
Break free
From your
Animal heart
And listen
To your
Own voice
All the things they try to say
It never mattered anyway
I am not
A machine of flesh
A mind is it's own maze
Molding the key beside the cage
I am not
A machine of flesh

Forgotten Death

can you hear me
eternal frequency?
time gets away from you
watch, it continues
history takes longer than a paragraph
you are always living in the aftermath
ocean waves
will take your graves
and who really wants to talk about the past?
you're living a forgotten death
Is that you I hear?
Among all the fear
No one is ever alone
With that everlasting tone
history takes longer than a paragraph
you are always living in the aftermath
ocean waves
will take your graves
and who really wants to talk about the past?
you're living a forgotten death

Shimmer

Running beside a furious river
The rain is beating me down
The water is rising up
Begging me to drown
Images surface, form and take shape
From the water and from my dreams
The river grabs me and I hear
Come in and you'll be free
Inside the river
Am I sinking
Am I sinking
Why can I breathe
Going further down
What am I seeing
What am I seeing
I'm so scared
I try to swim my way out
The current is dragging me
Away from where I was
Living so safely
Showing me the things I fear
Making me drink them in
Swallowing the water and the pain
What I was is at an end
Inside the river
Am I sinking
Am I sinking
Why can I breathe
Going further down
What am I seeing
What am I seeing
I'm so scared
I don't want to die without living first
All the pain, the strain & the hurt
The River takes that decision from me
A change pervades either way
The River, it shimmers

Ooo
She Tacky
I think you know what I'm talking about
Exactly
Ooo
She a tacky girl
Wanna order up some nachos
In her tacky world
Ooo
With her suntan hair
Parted to one side like she just don't care
Do you know what I mean?
You shoulda seen that freaky scene
Ooo
She a valley girl viking
And every pose
That she chose
She knows will be more striking
Ooo
Double-neon see-thru freakum dress
Makin an art out of a hot mess
Ooo
She tacky
I think you know what I'm talking about
Exactly
Don't sleep on the steez
Don't sleep on the sleaze

You think you're clever
"It's just a joke"
Nobody missed it
Don't get it twisted
Let's keep this civil
Strike with a missile
If shame's the way we gotta play it
Then it's time to open up the corner
Everybody came to party
Don't be afraid to be yourself
If there's ever any doubt
Come to us, we'll point them out
A noxious tension
Apprehension
You're words are borrowed
Holy and hollow
Think you're alone
Where's your chaperone?
Nothing left
Out of breath
Everybody came to party
Don't be afraid to be yourself
If there's ever any doubt
Come to us, we'll point them out
You must think you're really something
You're a sheep dressed in wolf's clothing
Making fun of someone else's skin?
Next let's take on those burn victims
When you're in the mood
And you're feeling rude
And you just want to let loose with some 'tude
Party Cops
To protect and serve
That's our only words
And the number one rule is to not be a jerk

Idols

Our idols are melting
Under the glare of our eyes
How could we think they were real
After hearing so many lies
Don't you see that there is nothing true
In their minds we're just bugs to be crushed
When we'd fight back we would always lose
But their time is at an end
They won't go without a struggle
Our idols will steal our screams
If we act out of line
They'll get rid of all our dreams
Don't you see that there nothing true
In their minds we're just bugs to be crushed
When we'd fight back we would always lose
But their time is at an end
We can win but we can never stop
We can beat them but we can never stop
We can make it better but we can never stop
Do we cherish our life enough to never stop?

Over and over
Write what you know
This lockstep's
My only spoke
Filling up a bar
That's the oldest joke
Just get this done
Before you croak
Walls
Start so small
Brick by brick
Until you're surrounded
Patterns
Emerge
The whole thing clicks
Waiting to be found
Have you ever run in circles so many times
it became a straight line?
Have you ever played a game so many times
that it became a nightmare?
Repetition is insanity
