- Alone In New Jersey
It's nice and quiet over suburbs of North Jersey. Every night my friends and me would skate through Nichols Park. Never hurt no one just sat around and laughed about the times that past. Same old story in any town the times they go so fast. The title to the world just can't replace the smile on my face. When I know that I'm coming back home to this place. People in this town seem so much meaner. It used to be much cleaner. Make sure you know that the grass is always greener. Weekdays always came and went I felt so robbed. Never seems to stop full-time classes and two jobs. On Friday night we'd hop the path to New York City. We'd end up getting shitty most of which is still a blur to me. The title to the world just can't replace the smile on my face. When I know that I'm coming back home to this place. The people in this town seem so much meaner. It used to be much cleaner. Make sure you know that the grass is always greener. I'm gonna sit here till the sun comes up. I'm gonna think about how I'm down on my luck. I'm cold and there's nothing to do time ain't a threat. All alone in New Jersey on my last cigarette. I'm thinking about you sun's comin' up again. And I never wanted this plain old day to end. My TV can't get the channels. I go to Juan's to watch Sopranos. Twist one up and everything's alright. Looks like I'm leaving here again and all the fun will end. Seems like I'm just a normal guy living a not so normal life. The title to the world just can't replace the smile on my face. When I know I'm coming back home to this place. The people in this town seem so much meaner. It used to be much cleaner. Make sure you know that the grass is always greener. I'm gonna sit here till the sun comes up. I'm gonna thing about how I'm down on my luck. I'm cold and I don't want to go home time ain't a threat. All alone in New Jersey on my last cigarette. I'm thinking about you sun's comin' up again. And I never wanted this plain old day to end.
- Appreciation
I've been so blind not to appreciate what fed me and what dressed me.
A life can't be represented by what it's worth.
So do your part as long as you're on this earth.
My earth, your earth, our earth.
Alternatives to a learned nature have been made accessible.
A life can't represented by what it's worth.
So do your part as long as you're on this earth.
- Ashtray Monument
Free, alone.
The predawn white light's coming on.
Bottle on the night stand.
I count disasters on my free hand now.
Run for cover there's a big one coming.
You'll be lucky if you're at ground zero.
No one said that this life was easy.
- Bad Timing
i woke up late this morning
the sunlight shining in my eyes
and i almost forgot what it felt like to be free i wanted you to show me
all the things i'd never seen
and now i'm struggling to make ends meet
[chorus:]
how could you do this to me?
- Cross and burn
Rain falls down in concentration,
I finally come to the realization
That this place I'd once forsaken
Will consume my generation.
Countless, endless summers
Opposing everything we've worked for.
It was foolishness that made us wish
- Freegan
Well, I'd club a baby seal,
But you know I won't ingest it.
I'd tell my vegan girlfriend
"You know I wouldn't suggest it "
All my shoes are leather
And I don't care whether or not
All the cute little animals were to be shot!
- Friends
Talking shit is so easy to do
Guess i'm rubber your a fool
Telling lies to be a part of the drama
Guess your not so cool now not so cool are you?
I know who my friends are
Atleast I know so far
I know who my friends are
- Hope
Lyrics to Hope
I wrote a letter saying that
That i'm never coming back
Now I can be here by myself
Without you and no one esle
Your such a waste of time
But i'll be just fine
- Moosh
We sat on a curb after a party. And I'll never forget how she looked at me so sweet. We traded thoughts we traded secrets. And I never thought I'd ever find the girl that made me so complete. I can remember the taste of our first kiss. I can't remember a time when I felt like this. She don't care that I'm always broke. She always laughs at my dumb jokes. I can remember the time that we first met. I can remember the first words that you said. She must have stolen the stars and set them in her eyes. She blinds me with a smile everything is all right. I haven't felt this good in so long. And I've never felt something ever feel so right. And I've been away for a while. And I can't wait to see her smile. I'm driving home so far from here. I hope I get to see her tonight. I can remember the taste of our first kiss. I can't remember a time when I felt like this. She don't care that I'm always broke. She always laughs at my dumb jokes. I can remember the time that we first met. I can remember the first words that you said. She must have stolen the stars and set them in her eyes. She blinds me with a smile everything is all right.
- Sink Or Swim
So you're sick and you feel like you've got to stay in line. I keep the questions in my mind the time is changing with the tide. It's never too late don't put it all aside. Don't become the one you hate. So sink or swim you make the call. Give way to one give way to them all. And they'll all come crumbling down. All the times that no one heard your voice. All those times did you know you really had a choice. Don't sell yourself short. Your better off without it you're better than before. Now this mess becomes too much at a time. It's always on my mind and there's not a place to hide. Don't let it go don't put it all aside, to watch everything collide.
- Smile
Is there such things as to sensitive?
Should we ignore what really hurts?
You're taking what I'm not giving,
It's always the stupid things that seem to hurt us.
But can you see it in my eyes?
When you walked away and stabbed me in the back.
But please don't tell me no more lies,
And I can see it in your eyes,
- Sore Losers
I'm guessing some things never change
Sore losers they've just lost the game
Trying to win the battle lost
Some just can't accept it
Some just wanna reject it
Their hearts have been consumed by hate
It takes me back to the kid who had someone fighting for him
Brings me back to a game we played when we were kids
- Static
You try to find your place for comfort regurgitating everything they say.
Believe, believe, believe, relief.
Rinse and repeat your time away.
They lie brainwashing you into submission.
And I think it's time I think it all again.
Now throw away everything that you have learned.
Conning you into giving everything that you have earned.
- Waste
I see these people everyday.
These zombie like lab rats just wasting away.
And what I see it's not for me.
Your really not living you're barely existing.
I'm trying hard to think for myself.
And I won't waste away.
I'm living for today.
Your rules were meant to break.
- Who Am I To Say
I know what your thinking responsibility scares you to death.
We'll this is the last time your ever gonna meet this mess again.
Why don't we talk about it I don't want to fight about it.
Hey who am I to say well I think you're acting a little out of line.
Hey what you gonna do when none of your friends will come back to you.
Some people say that life's a bitch but I'm not one of those.
It's what you make of it what you make of the path you choose.
Why don't we talk about it I don't want to fight about it.
