Teenage Time Kills

even though I have no traction
I think that we can find this mutual attraction
got no brains just a head with motion
I get up and down my art is an explosion
idiot fools overcome tools
all I'm doin' is movin'
don't need coolin'
no
the way I show me is the way I show me
do you think you know me?
I try my best and flow free
cause if you felt lonely
then you might know me
teenage time kills
it's time to write your wills
it's hard to have fun
when you're stuck in class, hun
but we can break this
let's remake this
I know a place where music flows through all the kids
the way I show me is the way I show me
do you think you know me?
I try my best and flow free
cause if you felt lonely
and you think you're the only
just don't worry you're not alone
I know it hurts but please don't
tomorrow is coming your way

Ego Mania
05:18

through the eyes of a child there is no losing
lies are truth, if its ego stroking
but we must pull ahead, continue the fight
to the land of ego mania
here is where the child resides
propped up in a cushy white chair
hostility in the air
here you are stubborn and you wont admit defeat
but you'll face the heat in the face of climate change
look through the eyes of a child and try to understand
how we can turn our leaders around
I thought I was afraid but I'm not
I want to fight
in ego mania you'll find the noblest of souls
with G.I. Joe's one could have ran a fort
so restrained, no fire from the loose cannon
best of all the child in the cushy white chair
too afraid to shake his rump
'cause shakedowns are only for black people or the bad guys
please look through the eyes of a child and try to understand
how we can turn our leaders around
I thought I was afraid but I'm not
I want to fight
look through the eyes of a child and try to understand
how we can turn our leaders around
I thought I was afraid but I'm not
I want to fight
look through the eyes of a child and try to understand (through the eyes of a child lies are truth)
how we can turn our leaders around (in ego mania)
I thought I was afraid but I'm not (through the eyes of a child lies are truth)
I want to fight (in ego mania)
I want to fight

Next Time

in the heat of the moment there's so much that can go wrong
and there's nothing left to lose so we have to stay strong
when citizens united bought your vote
all that's left was voice with no way to be heard
so stand and take the pledge
to fight till we fall off the edge
if you feel hurt that you've been kicked to the curb
we'll see you next time
if you feel like you've been marginalized
we'll see you next time
sitting down in class not knowing what to think
feels like my life is draining down the sink
choices to make and decisions to be made
why is everybody so damn worried about their grades?
so stand and take the pledge
to fight till we fall off the edge!
if you feel hurt that you've been kicked to the curb
we'll see you next time
if you feel like you've been marginalized
we'll see you next time
politicians still squander
our lives for personal gain
so if you feel like it's about time for a change
we'll see you next time
politicians still squander
our lives for personal gain
so if you feel like it's about time for a change
we'll see you next time
if you feel hurt that you've been kicked to the curb
we'll see you next time
if you feel like you've been marginalized
we'll see you next time

Done Is Done

hey little one
I'm not your son
ill morning skies
shine so bright, she cries
hey little one
do you see what you've done?
I know we've got it real rough
and it seems all we've got just ain't enough
I know it's really difficult sometimes
maybe you shouldn't stop to think and wonder why
hey little one
it's not close to being done
don't you give up and quit
remember why you started this
hey little one
it's okay that today they won
it won't stand to last
yesterday has gone and past
hey little one

Aiming at the Sun
03:30

I think it's time I leave home
one year left but I don't know
I love my family and my friends but oh
high school is really takin it's toll
almost 18, I never would've dreamed
of aimin at my hair but I'm runnin with my feet
how'd I get so god damn old?
I'm just a kid but they're throwin at me stones
aiming at the sun
can you hear my drum?
you wanna know who won?
my difference is greater than your sum
everyday it's always the same
I tell myself not to complain
I know to you this probably sounds lame
but sooner or later things have got to change
I got a feelin now
I got a feelin now
I got a feelin now
aiming at the sun
can you hear my drum?
you wanna know who won?
my difference is greater than your sum
aiming at the sun
can you hear my drum?
you wanna know who won?
my difference is greater than your sum
don't wanna go home I don't wanna leave
don't wanna stay here I wanna be free
comes with a price as far as I know
I feel like I'm seven,
but I'm already grown
and now I've all run out

I've Run Out Of...
04:45
|

|
here alone
do you feel alone?
is this your home?
well do you know?
it's hard to listen
when there's something missin
from your chest
you don't know what's best
where to go when you're on your own
sticks and stones don't break any bones
think too much, you've run out of luck
care too much, I've run out of...
fucks
count them all
see how they fall
all your friends
you're close to an end
in my room
and I can't move
my head's on fire
and wrapped in barbed wire
where to go when you're on your own
sticks and stones don't break any bones
think too much, you've run out of luck
care too much, I've run out of...
I've run out of...
I've run out of...
fucks!

Greed Is Good
06:02
|

I look into their eyes
oh what a surprise
I can see
vacancy
try to put us down
our heads facing the ground
it's unclear to me
can we succeed?
time to play a game
the goal is to obtain everything
be a king
have you heard the word?
it sounds so absurd, but
all your dreams aren't what you need
anywhere you go
they'll see you walk in
they'll try to catch your eye
put you in a coffin
they'll tell you what you need
and say it's helpful
they'll stuff it down your throat
won't stop till hell cools
and when you're finally done
and you leave your childhood
they whisper in your ear
that greed, greed is good
always wanting more
not allowed to be bored
it's okay, waste away
always check your screens
don't you ever scream
we don't know
continue the show
they'll never let you in
they'll never let you in
there's only room for a few
anywhere you go
they'll see you walk in
they'll try to catch your eye
put you in a coffin
they'll tell you what you need
and say it's helpful
they'll stuff it down your throat
won't stop till hell cools
and when you're finally done
and you leave your childhood
I'll whisper in your ear
that greed, greed is good
greed is good

So It Goes Los Angeles, California
the limb swings daintily from the shaft
how clever the devil must be to craft
a world where we would chase our tails
until we accused and killed each other
over our own fails
So It Goes recommends:
knitting/scissors + O, Captain
by no boot straps
These songs are sensual, yet unorthodox and will really leave you wishing there was more. Good thing their debut album is coming soon!
