Modern Life Is War piosenki

We've been abandoned. Yeah, we've been left behind. Red hot daggers in our conscious through the long cold night. Are we growing ugly? Are we wasting time? Tell me your truth, kid. I'll tell you mine. I've crawled through obscurity to find the heavy burden...

The last words I heard before I slammed the door... "You gotta be humble in this life." But my shoulders tell me that ain't right as I race down the stairs and step out into the night. I scan the city skyline... smoking like a neon mechanized Christ. So...

Is this bitter disdain or just yearning? Am I standing still or am I slowly turning? Welcome me back and make the embrace warm. Cause I'm still screamin' at the same walls I was screamin' at five years before. Fight invisible enemies. Warriors without a w...

This marks the return of a threat that we should have never taken back: To live our lives with unwavering intent and in the spirit of a new romance. Growing up in an age where monotony reigns...it's so easy to keep your heart and mind locked away. And it's...

Some days I pray for collapse. Pray for my comforts to be snatched From my soft hands. For the rug to be pulled from beneath my soft feet. Maybe then finally, a true piece of mind could be mine. Until then I need you now more than ever. Permanent changes f...

We were young, numb, and violent all at once. We were always smashing glass but it was never enough to make us feel OK. Are we normal boys? Is this the normal way? We've been dragging dead weight across Midwest towns. Killing our times with our frowns. Alon...

Steal my heart in the summer. Thoughts & visions from another time cloud my mind. Thinking I was not meant to live this long. Thanking an absentee god that I did not take that accidental fatal fall. Distractions as lifeblood. Stranded drunk on a humid...

Force fed from the outside. We live a crowded life it seems. Fragile minds in a fast paced world. Can't compute the images coming through the screens. Can't seem to bridge the gap between AM reality and late night schemes. Can't seem to focus as the glitter...

I am rising with the concrete tide. Bumps'n'cracks shake loose the cobwebs in my mind. Bail or smash. For old mistakes I won't do time. Sincerely sorry if I was a fool. If I acted arrogant or cruel. My vessel moves forward so must my soul. Shouting matche...

Poverty of spirit. Economy of disappointment. Laborers of the concrete reservation. I'm a broken record now. Skipping for a decade now. Still trying not to drown in this dead eye sea. Is it real? I don't know, but I feel like it's surrounding me. And I w...

Making come true our modest impossible dreams. Stuck in public school classrooms at age 15. Those long hot days just before the summer... Knowing that we're stuck here... And there's something happening somewhere. Knowing we know we gotta get there. It's...

Balance is bittersweet when all you know is madness. Count my blessings. Poke out my eyes. Privilege magnified & shoved in my face when I walk through the tunnels where the invalids lay. I'm wading in dark water when I should be in bed. With a head...

We've been climbing uphill together, For three years and counting. Life kicks us when we're down but we, We just keep trying. What else can we do? Dwell on the past and it will bury you. But it's getting harder to look ahead, With all these conflicting...

This is a lesson in letting your guard down. Sometimes open arms are an invitation for disaster. So next time, I'll trust my fucking instincts. Next time you come around, All you will get are cold stares, cold shoulders. I'll be crouching with my fists cl...

There is a certain constant tension inside my skull. Insecurities that used to make me crazy now just make me dull. So I'm scrounging in a western void searching for relief. You can check out early & die while you're young or peak, wither & wait f...

I believe I am here to create. Armed with love & knowledge I will find a way. If you believe you are here to create. Seek love & knowledge and you will find a way. If we believe we are here to create. Armed with love & knowledge we will find a...

Is it wrong to want to walk away when every day of your life looks like today and today looks like a rotting lifeless gray? I don't know where things went wrong with me...but I feel like I've become a timid shadow of the person I've always wanted to be. And...

The grass was never green. There was never purity. Some say it's all over... stupid fucking jaded burnouts. Young ones: carry on. Destroy and annoy. Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Fuck The Glory Days! We don't care what you think. We don't care what you say....

I promised myself I wouldn't lead you on. So here it is confused and flawed. As foolish as these words may seem. As foolish as I may be. See, I'm just a factory worker's son from a railroad town. And yeah, I can feel the steel mills rust. But I've been...

In the pursuit of health, wealth & peace Try not to dwell in the rear view on momentary street. Shun substance for distraction. You can't squeeze love from hateful action. Picking up the pieces from the days when youth was my religion & friends we...
