Lyrics by Joe Hill:
We're spending billions every year
For guns and ammunition
"Our Army" and "Our Navy" dear
To keep in good condition;
While millions live in misery
And millions died before us
Don't sing "My Country, 'tis of thee,"
But sing this little chorus
Should I ever be a soldier
'Neath the Red Flag I would fight;
Should the gun I ever shoulder
It's to crush the tyrant's might
Join the army of the toilers
Men and women fall in line
Wage slaves of the world! Arouse!
Do your duty for the cause
For Land and Liberty
And many a maiden, pure and fair
Her love and pride must offer
On Mammon's altar in despair
To fill the master's coffer
The gold that pays the mighty fleet
From tender youth he squeezes
While brawny men must walk the street
And face the wintry breezes
For Land and Liberty
Why do they mount their gatling gun
A thousand miles from ocean
Where hostile fleet could never run--
Ain't that a funny notion?
If you don't know the reason why
Just strike for better wages
And then, my friends--if you don't die--
You'll sing this song for ages
Should I ever be a soldier
'Neath the Red Flag I would fight;
Should the gun I ever shoulder
It's to crush the tyrant's might
Join the army of the toilers
Men and women fall in line
Wage slaves of the world! Arouse!
Do your duty for the cause
For Land and Liberty

The Path - Better Birds
01:48
|
|||
We can't fly
It must die
Oh shit we've been tricked in how we identify ourselves
one bird with two wings was never meant to fly so we die
Funnel your funds
Keep your mind numb
Shut the fuck up and pretend that you have won.
Which one represents you?
Which one wants you fucking dead?
This is the trap
How did it last?
How did we let ourselves get reduced to this?

Lick the boot or eat the sole
The poor will keep killing the poor
I had a dream that they put down their guns
to serve and protect in the interest of everyone
Send in the goons, throw them some steak
see how many heads they will break
I had a dream that they put down their guns
to serve and protect in the interest of everyone
lets undo the tried and true
There's a way to serve without using violence
There is a better way

Gone Wrong - Lethargy
01:17
|
|||
Never see your around but I wish I did
Stuck building tolerance for emptiness
Lethargy, apathy, is your plan
I want you to try but you don't think you can
Stuck in a room you’ll never know what it's like
Can’t stand to see you just waste your life
Can’t let ourselves feel like this
When all it takes is doing something about it
Do what you want, just sit inside
Forgetting what it means to be alive
I’m sick of you, letting yourself down
Wake up inside, it's your life

another one gone to the bliss
To the apathetic abyss
Lives no more
fried on Like
brain is gone
Cry all night
Nothing for you here
Go home and drink your beer

Gone Wrong - Hated
01:43
|
|||
Demo plane flies overhead
An overwhelming sense of dread
Should be safe inside their home
Now where are they gonna go
Hated
For who they are
You
Have gone too far
Why make so many mistakes if you don’t learn from them
Standing high on morals you don’t believe
Quest of power through hatred
Running from the darkness you created
Hated
For who they are
You
Won’t go far
As long as there's soldiers in the street
We lack empathy for human beings
As long as we stick to our silent ways
Nothing will ever change
Don’t let excuses get to your head
Lawful or not those kids are dead
Sympathy has never been enough
Wish I knew what was
(Demo was supposed to mean demolition)

Building walls around myself
Concerned with my best self
Closing doors around me
So they can't see the ugly parts that make up me
