Packing Heat
05:26
|

Calm down
Let it build up
Better keep inside
You don’t wanna hide
But you better shut your mouth
Chill out
Take a back seat
Cuz you don’t wanna meet
I’m packing heat on a California street
I ‘m gonna run right through you
I’m packing heat
Never felt so incomplete
I’m gonna head right to you
You’re dead to me
After all that we’ve been through
You lied to me
And still you continue No sympathy for your idiocracy
t’s a blatant catastrophe
I’m packing heat on a California street
I ‘m gonna run right through you
I’m packing heat
Never felt so obsolete
I’m gonna head right to you
Like a time bomb ticking
Ain’t no use predicting
When I’m gonna blow
Like a rocket ship countdown
You don’t wanna be around
When it’s time to go
My weapon’s hot
And I don’t wanna stop
Packing heat
On the California streets

Love And Obstacles
06:37
|
|||
Incomplete incompletion
Obsolete by deletion
Side by side comparison
Warrant my indignation
Ascension and innocence
Makes no sense in my defense
Intense self deprecation
Question my destination
Say what you gonna say
I won’t listen anyway
Do what you gotta do
I will never run with you
Know what you wanna know
I don’t have to believe so
Find what’s inside of you
The nightmare of a dream come true
Satisfy my satisfaction
Correct my adaptation
Intensely amplify my insolence self confidence
Raging from a voice inside you
Throw what you gotta throw
I will deflect your arrows
Stand where you gonna stand
I will try to understand
Hear what I got to say
You won’t listen anyway
Find what’s inside of you
The nightmare of a dream come true
When the voice inside you corrupts your soul
And the noise besides you wants it all
When your strength is gone and you try to move on
Unstoppable love and obstacles
Speculate by spectacle
Disputes are indisputable
Your pretenses are advanced
By overwhelming circumstance
Words by prejudice have consequences
Say what you gonna say
I won’t listen anyway
Do what you gotta do
I will never run with you
Know what you wanna know
I don’t have to believe so
Find what’s inside of you
The nightmare of a dream come true
When the voice inside you corrupts your soul
And the noise besides you wants it all
When your strength is gone and you try to move on
Unstoppable love and obstacles
When the voice inside you corrupts your soul
And the noise besides you wants it all
When your strength is gone and you try to move on
Unstoppable love and obstacles

Nobody's Listening
05:28
|

The back of the bar seems so far
Far away
The stage is bare
The tables and chairs are empty tonight
One microphone and one guitar turned up to five
I’ll sing my song but the game is on
You don’t know I’m alive
Nobody’s listening
The silence is deafening
Nobody’s listening at all
It’s half past ten
I’m at it again
I play to survive
I see the back of your head
I feel like I’m dead and I’m dying inside
Some change in my jar
I’ll sleep in my car
It’s a labor of love
With grace and poise I’m your background noise
But I crave the rush
Nobody’s listening
It’s a rude awakening
Nobody’s listening at all
I’m singing I’m playing every night
When the weekend comes and my money’s gone
You were still there
Someday I’ll be famous and you will have missed it
Because you were talking
Yes you were talking
I cuss and fuss
The drink is just to make it through
Life on the road I’ve never felt to alone
I’m missing you
I sing from the heart
I nail all the parts
You’re deaf dumb and blind
As the patrons walk out I scream and shout
They pay no mind
Nobody’s listening
Is this really happening
Nobody’s listening
At all
Nobody’s listening
Your chatter is overpowering
Nobody’s listening
At all

The Formula
04:17
|
|||
Simplify for simple minds
Less is more in these times
Music for free is a crime
Open your mind
You’re confined
An earworm and a noose
Set it forth and break loose
Much room to improve
Keeping me hooked on the groove
Stick to the formula
It never fails
The formula
Stick to the formula
Your ordinary lives have become king
The words that you speak are hollow
No one can do it solo
Ya just gotta go with the flow
But everyone pays for the show
The camera cries in your face
Everything you do a disgrace
Conquer the world in cyber space
Embarrassing the whole human race
Stick to the formula
It never fails
The formula
Stick to the formula
Your ordinary lives have become king
Make a scene for a minute
A million views and you're in it
Tomorrow comes with someone new
A million more to forget you
You’re a star better believe it
A strangers eyes to critique yeah
When haters troll your ego knows
The black empty pit of your soul
Stick to the formula
It never fails
The formula
Stick to the formula
Your ordinary lives have become king
Dictate the formula
It always wins
The formula
Stand by the formula
Your mediocre lives on the small screen

Something More
03:41
|

You’re such a disappointment
Like a fly in the ointment
That’s not what I meant
But you let me down again
You’ve been there all my life
It cuts me like a knife
You caused me lots of strife
Let’s try this one more time
It’s like a brick wall impossible to climb
Constantly reminding me how
I’m wanting something more
I live for something more
I’m wanting something more
I live for something more
You cost me everything
But you taught me how to sing
You give the middle finger one too many times
Been like this all along
Seems like the same old song
I‘m not where I belong
It’s wrong place wrong time
It’s like a grand canyon impossible to cross
Constantly reminding me how
I’m wanting something more
I live for something more
I’m wanting something more
I live for something more
It’s like a brick wall impossible to climb
Constantly reminding me how
I’m wanting something more
I live for something more
I’m wanting something more
I live for something more
(stick to the formula)

My Goddess
03:53
|
|||
I’ve fallen in to you
There’s nothing I can do
When I think I think that I fell for you
We drove the slow lane
Where others crash and burn
I'm not afraid
I know what I’ve learned
We come from broken bones
We dodged sticks and stones
We came and saw the Point of Know Return
I do believe that you know
How precious time is now we’re alone
My girl
My heart
My Goddess
I’ve jumped the rabbit hole
I’ll go where you go
Watching movies on a Sunday afternoon
When things run amuck
You’re absolutely stuck
We know the meaning without having to say a word
And when your dreams get wild
I'll be with you every mile
It’s all worthwhile when I see your morning smile
I do believe that you know
How precious time is now we’re alone
My girl
My heart
My Goddess
I've fallen in to you
I do believe that you know
How precious time is now we’re alone
My Goddess
I do believe that you know
How precious time is now we’re alone
My girl
My heart
My Goddess
I've fallen in to you

The Bottom Feeders
04:13
|
|||
From the dawn of day till the end of time
Someone will stab your back
One family or a good ole friend
Or some random stranger maniac
C'mon
You’re just the scum of the the earth
Trained to be bad from your birth
You’re just the evil seeders
The bottom feeders
Words can manipulate
Learn to love before it’s too late
These are the cue card readers
The bottom feeders
Wasting all my breath at the breaking point
My blood boils in your name
To live in fear is no way to live
How much more can I explain
You’re just the scum of the the earth
Trained to be bad from your birth
You’re just the evil seeders
The bottom feeders
Words can manipulate
Learn to love before it’s too late
These are the cue card readers
The bottom feeders
You may find an empty threat in you yard or cigarette
Without fail it happens here
Near or far
It’s crystal clear
Looking down there’s shadows cast
Standing tall but in past past
Media manipulate and speculate
You can't escape
You’re just the scum of the the earth
Trained to be bad from your birth
You’re just the evil seeders
The bottom feeders
Words can manipulate
Learn to love before it’s too late
These are the cue card readers
The bottom feeders
You’re just the scum of the the earth
Trained to be bad from your birth
You’re just the evil seeders
The bottom feeders
The bottom feeders

Lack Of Motivation
03:35
|
|||
You know how I feel about Mondays
I never get enough rest
It feels like a week full of Sundays
I’d rather stay In my bed
Sleeping is always a nightmare
Cuz sleep is the thing that I dread
I dream about getting up someday
I know that it’s all in my head
What does it take
What does it take
What does it take to get motivation
What does it take
What does it take
What does it take to get motivation
I get nothing done but I have so much to do
I get so much done cuz I have nothing to do
I can’t fall asleep on a weekday
I toss and turn in a rage
Uncomfortably left in a small space
Like being confined in a cage
Yeah
What does it take
What does it take
What does it take to get motivation
What does it take
What does it take
What does it take to get motivation
I get nothing done but I have so much to do
I get so much done cuz I have nothing to do
Back to life and reality
Back to vices and causality
Back to strife and normality
Back to lies and morality
You know how I feel about Mondays
There’s so much potential ahead
But to put it off until tomorrow
I can dream about you instead
What does it take
What does it take
What does it take to get motivation
What does it take
What does it take
What does it take to get motivation
I get nothing done but I have so much to do
I get so much done cuz I have nothing to do

Calibration
05:41
|

Can you see I’m happily in pain
But you won’t know
I hide it every day
It’s a different situation all around
When I’m headed for the lost and found
I don’t know why there’s no room left to breathe
So hold on tight to all that you receive
It’s the same old nightmare that’s here to stay
It cannot stop when It’s in your way
Calibrate
Reconfigurate
Calibration get your head straight
Reconfiguration carries too much weight
When I’m about to break
Well I’m running
I run to get away
And I’m in the same place I was yesterday
And I’m feeling no one could give a damn
And I’m falling down when I try to stand
How much more or further should I wander
Just to get a bit
Maybe a little bit stronger
I can’t find a place so little believe
Of peace and hope and harmony
Calibrate
Reconfigurate
Calibration get your head straight
Reconfiguration carries too much weight
Calibration get your head straight
Reconfiguration carries too much weight
When I’m about to break
Whoa Yeah!
Uh!
