Enough
01:11
|

Thought you understand
at least some crucial points
About what to reject
who better not to join
I tried to talk to you
time and time again
but when push comes to shove
you're no different, only one of them
This time I fucking had enough
No more sweet talk
Let the gloves come off
Disgusted how you compromise
I draw the line for all to see
Goodbye, my friend; I'm through with you
Hello my latest enemy

Nothing But Contempt
01:40

Take a look at yourself
Your identity off the shelf
Your so-called life, your so-called friends
exchangeable until the end
Your superficial
urge to stand out
Can’t hide from me
what you enshroud
Fucking shallow, full of shit
I hate to see you get away with it
You showed me what I truly strife to be
The less I am like you, I feel like me
I will bring you down
You fail to hide your true colors from me
and to conceal your fucking mediocrity
The worst I know rots behind your facade
I will always be here to show up your fraud
Walk Away, straight fucking edge
Music against the likes of you

Redemption Denied
01:08
|
|||
Don't watch your back
Don't you worry
You’ll see my face
You’ll hear my voice
You’ll feel my rage
when we settle the score
Some things in life can not be set right
Excuses rejected, redemption denied
Some things in life can never be set right

The Defiant
01:22

Defend your life against this reality
A label, a barcode on every fucking thing I see
Forced to your knees, scared to your fucking bone
A pawn, a robot, no more than another clone
Before you forget and live in regret.
Before you're losing track - demand your life back!
All caught up in work and prescribed pastime dullness
Exhausted, weakened, succumbing to slow regress
Forced to your knees, scared to your bone
A pawn, a robot, no more than another clone
Before you forget and live in regret
Before you're losing track - demand your life back!
I want my life back!

Fuck Your Numbers
00:59
|
|||
Looking for truth in mass consent
Looking for strength in marching hordes
A desperate plea for community
I still prefer to live free
Strength comes from within
And truth from far beyond
Fuck Your Numbers, they don't mean shit to me
You are the plenty and I'm still me
And I'm still free

Remnants
01:10

One might think we've fucking changed
but in our hearts we're still the same
Despite the curse of growing up
rest assured we'll never stop
The washed-up youth, the discontent
the crucial few who'll never bend
The dissidents, the honor-bound
who speak up and will not back down
The few who choose to walk away
who found this place and are here to stay
The positive, the straight edge kid - we will never quit
One might think we've fucking changed
but in our hearts we'll always be the same

My Oath
01:29
|
|||
You love the masses and want to fit in
You trade in clear thoughts for that stupid grin
No trust in yourself - the greatest sin for me
You claim you control it but that’s a lie
I can see it controls you every time you’re high
You doubt and regret but never resist
and face your hardest trail
I made this decision to always be myself
A lifetime commitment to trust in who I am
An oath I stand for even if it isolates me
I’ll never be like you, trust this: The edge has set me free
You shut down your brain for what you call fun
becoming a better automaton.
I’ve seen it so often, it makes me stun
It’s how I could never be
I will never share the apathy that dominates your life
And I will never need to drown my brain just to have some fun
I will never live in sedation and addiction
Right I will never give up on straight edge

Alive
00:49
|

The world out there is so hard to bear
The fight for change seems so unfair
Too many people are too far gone
But here's what gives me the strength to carry on
One board, four wheels and my friends are enough
Clear thoughts, bruised knees and the music I love
Three cords, two steps and a hundred stage-dives
Out of step with the world and I feel alive. Alive!
The world out there seems too far gone
but I still find the strength to carry on

Walk Away
01:45
|
|||
I turned my back on everything that held me down
Said goodbye to being pushed around
Bowed out of the game we’re forced to play
I clenched my fist and chose to walk away
There’s the flock and there’s the hive
They suck you in - to rule your life
but there’s one path without a guide
for you to tread if you decide:
I choose to walk away
You played your part to fit in the best
You knew where to stand, what to think, how to dress
No matter how confident some doubt would remain
A feeling there might be much more to gain
Afraid to stand out, to feel all alone
to burn down that bridge and be on your own
Take all your courage - this is the day
Have faith in yourself and choose to walk away
No compliance, no compromise, no looking back
Turned my back on your world and its lies
Stand tall, stand alone, state with pride - I chose to walk away

Y.A.R.

Let us give up all restraint
Let go all our doubts and then
raise our fists, fall in line
Stop to think, start to shout again
We are on the move again
This time we'll set it right
No time to rethink, let worry set aside
Let go, let go, reservations, hesitations and inner quarrels mustn't show
This time everything is clear
The silence of the critics
No dissent to fear
Let go, let go, of the voices deep inside:
We can’t be wrong again
It's time for action, it's time to fight
Team up! Unite! Don't ask twice!
Yet another revolution is on the verge.
Don’t you hold back:
We can't be wrong again

Resilience
01:36

Your path, your plight, so far from mine
Your heart so warm and truly benign
Your world on fire, your mind at peace
Truly convinced all pain will cease
No matter what life hurls at you
Still you’re standing tall
Still you are standing tall
A voice of reason and empathy
Righteous and honest, inspiring to me
A beacon of hope in desperate times
To hold on, to focus on making the climb
No matter what they throw at you
Still you make it through the day
You taught me what it means
To live, to learn, to rise above
To fight, to lose, to get back up
To live, to learn, to rise above
To fight, to lose, to keep pushing on
