And it's prejudice
As if he chose to be this way
They'll make him keep more than he would take

One summer morning
He left us ashamed
In some small town of small ways
The one they feared
They might turn to stone
They feared to hold his hand
And he died alone
He died alone

They might turn to stone... alone

Don't leave them on an island of shame

Your solution
You homophobic
You coward
You send them away to an island of misery
You're not immune to any disease
I can not argue when the truth is plain to see
In your beliefs, your fear of death
I see reflections of society
We'll take our last breath alone

Don't leave them on an island of shame

Open your eyes
It's all in sight
Adding insult to injury
'Cause deep inside
The truth in lies
It's not that blind
He was alone

And it's prejudice
As if he chose to be this way
They'll make him keep more than he would take
It's prejudice
Yes it's prejudice
As if he chose to be this way
They'll make him keep more than he would take
They like to stabb him in the back

I just lost my job
I just lost my girl
Things are getting way out of hand
But my living room is like quicksand
Sucks me down
I'll never leave
In the ground
My cable TV
I'm burnt out and lazy
Looking, Dwelling, Fuck me!
I'm lazy
Look at my cat
Why can't I live like that
All other animals except us
do nothing else but eat and shit
Yesterday
Is not the time
Tomorrow
Hasn't yet begun
Another wee)
Another Month
Going, Always, Fuck you
I'm lazy
I have no faults to fear, I'm down here
There's nothing to fear, no changes
'Cause having it all means nothing
I am not in beyond great pressure or the reason I see on you
Blue day again
Trying to reach end
A call, the machine, unseen action
No act of faith
No deed of good
Yesterday
Is not the time
Tomorrow
Is it not yet here
Another month
Another year!

Look at the world in disbelief
You used to follow now you lead
College has enlightened you
And you are proud to be different
And like different bands different types
You ain't nobody's fool
It's like certain bands remind you of someone you hated
'Cause they didn't wear the right clothing
And there's only one true fashion
Alot of the bands on the college charts are
great bands until they get signed.
Then you hate them
It's such bullshit -
you used to love them you hypocrite

Know it all Know it all
Did you really listen to that song?
Could you ever write what you call wrong?

I remember you and I listening to bands that we liked
Only the songs mattered to you
But now you're a D.J. and preaching that hype
"Corporate Rock Sucks You know, college radio enlightens you"
It's supposed to serve as a means to expose new bands
without prejudice, but it makes no sense
Safe harbor for the underground
'Til the alternative becomes the popular sound
The bands are good
'til they make enough cash to eat food and get a pad
Then they're sold out and their music is clich�
Because talent's exclusive to bands without pay

Know it all Know it all
Did you really listen to that song?
Could you ever write what you call wrong?

Know it all

friday night's a perfect night to mow some neighbor's lawn
and i'm drunk and at the helm before too long
and chris will gladly ride shotgun
'cause navigating seems like fun
drunk and out of gas, we drive around and crash

drivin' through the yard
there's nothin' u can do
dave's behind the wheel and he's had more than just a few
suburban families slumber in civility
awakened to the sights and sounds of the yard they're blowin' down
in their death machine

drive, drive, drive, drive, drive, drive

dave's a midnight landscaper and he's workin over-time
and he is full throttle-- full throttle tonight
--ARIGHT!!--
he was almost home, just one more block
he had to hit that last mailbox
dumped it in a ditch-- ain't that a bitch?
STOKIN' THE NEIGHBORS!
dave had to run, dave had to bail
he was havin' too much fun to spend the night in jail
had no triple A for a tow truck
called 'em anyway only to hear them say
"hey pal, you're fucked"

"hey man, what're ya doin?"
"i'm goin for another drive, you wanna go chris?"
"ya bro, lemme grab a couple beers!"
"shouldn't be drivin like that, dave"

dave's a decent guy like most of us until he drinks
then his liquid mind takes over how he thinks
and then all that matters is havin' fun
pulling off the next beer run
on one too many nights, the party's over

drivin' through the yard
there's nothin' u can do
dave's behind the wheel and he's had more than just a few
suburban families slumber in civility
awakened to aftermath, the neighbors have been stoked

"the story you have just heard is true. the names have not been
changed to protect the guilty, however, lagwagon does not condone
drinking and driving, they just find this particularly humerous."

Trying to ignore him
It's in his eyes
Trying to have self control
When that tounge slips just once

Thank you...
Push me down

Silence by energy
And the likes to come again
Treated to many times
Here to make you listen to them
The eye for eye has left us blind
This creature of demise
Repaid all the time

You hate them
You hate yourself
Take it out on someone else

I used to be out of control
I feel a change within myself
I always knew anger and pain
That inspiration was a game
But now it seems as I grow old

As I mature I'm lesser bold
I give it back
I can't believe how cruel and cold some people act
So I give it back

Cause I don't want it and I don't need it
Cause I don't want it and I don't need it

Don't wanna understand the child abuse, the past gone violence
Don't justify his violent nature

Soon or later I hope he meets his maker once again

Cause I don't want it and I don't need it
And like his father before him he kills himself
So I give it back
Cause I don't want it and I don't need it

You hate them
Take it out on someone elseYou hate yourself

They make your bed, don't they
Long ago they fought and died for faith - what's changed ?
It's said that we've acquired tolerance to build more bridges
Cross those rivers, yet modern man enslaves his conscious
And the undertow of blame still flows between
Give it birth to the machine - hostilities of ancestry
Slow to understand the variance - quick to judge on one aspect - rust
We call them fools today - they will call us fools in days to come - always
In any age it's ignorance
He that he's not with me is against me
The river of pride swells to high, washing those bridges out to sea
Give it birth to the machine
Too proud to love - Too proud
Soaking in your fears - rusting away
Never comprehending - always condescending
Slow to understand the variance - quick to judge - quick to condem
Carried them for years - stones that they once cast
Place the blame on them as if it were their past
Yesterdays distrust
Resent, Regret, disgust
Still we pay for their living - pay for their mistakes
Who will cast the latest stones of hate
Pay for their misgivings - pay for their living -
still we find that on the surface there
Is rust

Gotta drive all night if not a go
Got to designate a driver before the show
It's your turn now at the wheel
There's nothing like a guard rail
To wake you up in the middle of the night

And we are drivin' north, goin' south
It looks like we'll sleep here
We're out of beer
We're headed south on the north bound
Our wheels might as well be square
Cause we're not really getting anywhere
Tire tracks throughout, felt the brakin'
I don't think we're gonna make it
Drivin' around, goin' down
It looks like we'll sleep here,
I need a beer

South, goin' south, check us out we're goin' south
South, headed south, check it out, we're goin' down
South, goin' south

Hey where did we go, days when the rain came.
Down in the hollow, playin' a new game.
Runnin'And Laughin' , hey hey, skippin' and a jumpin'
In the misty mornin' fog with our hearts a thumpin' at you,
The Brown-Eyed Girl
You,my Brown-Eyed Girl
Now what ever happened, Tuesday is so slow,
Goin' down the old mine, with a transistor radio
Standin' in the sunlight laughin'
Hidin' behind a rainbow wall
Slippin' and a slidin', all along the waterfall with you,
The Brown-Eyed Girl
You,my Brown-Eyed Girl.

Do you remember when, ah we used to sing
Sha la la la la la la la la la la dee dah
Sha la la la la la la la la la la dee dah
La dee dah

So hard to find my way, now that I'm all on my own
I saw you just the other day, my how you had grown,
Cast my memory back there, Lord, Sometimes overcome thinkin' bout,
Rollin' In The green grass, behind the stadium with you.
The Brown-Eyed Girl
You, my Brown-Eyed Girl.

Do you remember when, ah we used to sing
Sha la la la la la la la la la la dee dah
Sha la la la la la la la la la la dee dah
La dee dah

Now it's simple to me
Sometimes you have to let go when there's
Next to nothing
You say everytime she says no
There's more pain then love
It comes o shove almost
Everytime you speak
Somehow you fight
Something's just crazy
Somehow it's taking all the life left in you
You'er losing ground
Carrying that torch
Your not asking for much
As she has...
Had time to heal
And she doesn't need you any longer an you...
Had time to drink
And you call her to tell her you've gotten much stronger
At three in the morning she says stop calling cause...
Everyone's asleep
Some of us work
You're driving me crazy
When will you get on with my life
Now every nights friday night
Picking fights with your friends
Somehow trying to make amends
So you seach for comfort in a friend
It's not the same she won't understand
You both learned to think alike
So what was so wrong
Where's she tonight
Out there drinking while you're left in thinking
It's taken all the life left in...
You
You're losing ground
Carrying that torch
You're not asking for much
Still somehow
You'll wait for her
You say she'll return
But you still carry that torch
That girl
WHIPPING BOY!!!

here comes the day i see my friends far away
when i grow up inside what will happen to me?
the city sights the business types
i can see but where are you?

bye for now
didn't mean to let you down
didn't mean to drive you away
bye for now
now that your not around
so many things i'd like to say

see here i think i've found the missing link
the piece that holds us together
if i had my way i'd here you say that it's ok
friendship should last for ever

bye for now
didn't mean to let you down
didn't mean to drive you away
bye for now
now that you're not around
so many things i'd like to say

didn't mean to let you down

didn't mean to let you down

didn't mean to let you down

didn't mean to let you down

didn't mean to let you dooooown

never meant to let you down

didn't mean to let you down
