| ALL ABOUT CONTROL | ^ Top |
this towns being run down by a twisted state of mind
no one seems to care; yeah no one got the time
all the money's being used the wrong way
all the kids are reaching out to have their say
flashing banners light up city streets at night
everywhere you turn you seen another f*cking corperate sign
isn't this just like they're vandalists
everyday they force us to look at their shit
it's all about control
but we think that we still have our say
it's all about control
they do what they want anyway
it's all about control
changing all the standards
it's all about control
and tearing down what matters
I think its time that they wake up
get the green out from their eyes
reality's too distant
when all they see are lies
its time for a shake down
for another revolution
cause everyone is drugged up on
advertising pollution
it's all about control...
manifest destiny
white supremacy
social dependency
gotta find another way
government policy
tax payer funded free
total inconsistency
it's all about control
| ALL YOU FEEL IS HATE | ^ Top |
take a look at yourself in the mirror
pictures pretty grim and its only getting grimmer
I can tell by your words that you’re
reconciled to your views
like an old dog set in his ways
don’t you understand that views can change?
you’ve given up trying to find truth
you’ve given up trying to find truth
I try to understand where you are coming from
your words, your actions are coming across so strong
starting to think that it’s too late
starting to think all you feel is hate
stare at the world you know what’s going on
say this disaster is a message from the gods
don’t you feel like you’re blinded?
when your moral views have subsided
don’t you think that perhaps you are wrong?
do you expect everyone to just play along?
starting to think that it’s too late
starting to think all you feel is hate
get so bitter that you’re ready to blow
how can you hate what you don’t even know?
you’ve given up trying to find truth
you’ve given up trying to find truth
I try to understand where you are coming from
your words, your actions are coming across so strong
starting to think that it’s too late
starting to think all you feel is hate
all you feel is hate
| BACK DOCK | ^ Top |
another working day
he gets up on his way
doesn't want to show up late
cannot miss a minute of it
as tired as a slave
only getting minimum wage
still tired from yesterday
but he couldn't live without it
the back docks where he's at
never gets paid his over time wage
the back docks where he's at
if you're looking for a chat he always down for that
it's the only way
to pass the time away
if he could get his way
he would change any of it
| CORPORATE POLICE | ^ Top |
you're getting away sack of gold in your
hands, but the blood stains are all
around you, set the place alight with
the oil in your veins, so that no one will
ever find you.
of course you can hide when all you're
livin' is a lie, but the searching will
never quit, so many want you dead with a
bullet in your head, you can burn in the
fires that you lit
yeah the corporate police ain’t walking
down the street, they let everybody get
away, Just like you, just like you
Mother-f*ckers only trying to get paid
they’re as greedy as you all they want
is money too, and you’re the one that took
it all away, in the end it’s all the same,
just the smarter of the two, you get to
keep all the money that you made
of course you can hide when all you're
livin' is a lie, but the searching will
never quit, so many want you dead with a
bullet in your head, you can burn in the
fires that you lit
the corporate police don't even exist,
they let everybody get away
just like you, just like you
problems never going to go away
the corporate police won't even assist
you've got the money to make them go away
they're just like you, they’re all like you
they'll do what it takes to get paid
| CRIMINAL | ^ Top |
they can take what they want but they
can’t take his mind away from the time when they took him in
now the boys got a gun held to his head
every time a whistle blows he’s headed back in
he's like a ticking time bomb
that’s gonna explode
when the dust settles down
he's gonna make his move
time to stop running
his visions impaired
can't see that he going nowhere
he's not a criminal, the crimes of the street
he's not a criminal
he's not a criminal, just a victim of deceit
he's not a criminal
gotta look both ways
in the middle of the night
a crowds startin out yeah they’re beginning to fight
everywhere he goes this kid starts a riot
he’s gotta speak out, he can’t keep quite
I take this shattered vision
And play it all alone
they’ll never let you take it
No they’ll never let you go
so whats the point in judging everybody else
before you judge somebody better f*ckin judge yourself
how is it that we don’t rebel more often
we don’t need a riot yeah we need a revolution
there’s a mile of red tape that chocking off the world
don’t accept subordination, don’t take their f*cking word
he doesn’t get no sleep anymore
nobody said that he’ll end up with the law
and if its solitude they think that’s gonna put him in his place
he's gonna throw another brick and the city will go up in flames
| DESPERATION | ^ Top |
your desperation, Don't even bother,
don't even think about me
get no sanction your desperation
hit against the wall with a million
reactions, say you wanna end it
then go ahead and do it, don't expect
anyone else to live through it.
feel like you're alone whenever I'm
not here, contemplate your own
narcissistic self despair, your scars
are alive so fresh that they bleed,
every night you cry the moment that
I leave.
lock yourself up with a razor by
your side, forget about your friends
they're only filling you with lies,
your scars are alive so fresh that
they bleed, every night you cry the
moment that I leave.

| KINGSTON AND LIBERTY | ^ Top |
started out living in the suburbs
where the wall used to speak in some
foreign language to me, said I want to
leave it all behind, and head down the
road, right down liberty street.
kingston and liberty, you know
there ain’t no place I'd rather be,
kingston and liberty
saw some things that made me wanna fight
when back in the hills I knew they'd never
understand, they're all too busy makin'
money, feedin' their addictions to own
everything they can.
down here no one's ever alone, there's
always someone who doesn't think you're
insane, and there is always some place
to go, and the walls are gonna know
exactly what you're sayin'
yeah I still go back and visit sometimes
when my world seems to be pouring down
like rain, but as soon as I step off on
the street, I remembered why I left all
over again.

| THESE PICTURES | ^ Top |
lying awake at 4am fighting a battle he
never wins, these pictures are killing him
but he doesn't understand, that old memory
when he was a kid how it changed his life and
everything he did, why do these strangers still
keep haunting him through his sleep?
television ads and morning spells these
things will never make you feel well, are
your pills working yet? is it making you
forget? the skeletons the ashes the tricks
and the violence the cars screeching by
with nobody assisting, just a memory just a
truth, just a broken hearted youth.
they never go, they'll murder him
they never go, they'll murder him
these pictures can kill a thousands words
his mother she was no better than him she
would turn her blind eye and let him in,
all of your favourite songs couldn't tell
you what's going wrong, somebody knew but
he said nothing he had no body, no friend to
confide in, One day he smashed the pictures
burned and his room, to the ground
back up in the strange cell one night he
cut himself on the edge of a knife, these
burns will never leave they're with you like
family, and the picture remain and the ripped
up letter 4am fix that don't make you feel
better, these tears are stolen ivory they
rare and harden up when he goes to sleep.

happy to sit back and watch the destruction of a nation
send us all on genocide based on speculation
the black blood that you spilled now soaks across the nation
structured way of killing for personal wealth
the greed stinks of the rotting fallen victims in hell
going to war with nothing to prove
the citys under siege by the red white and blue
