Wake up! Get up! Wake up! Keep up! Wake up! Stay up! Wake up! Hold yourself up We live our lives through our disappointment We rest, we rot and we dont have time to prove it Earn some satisfaction with your own two hands While you still can Hold yourself up

I sat down today Listened to a band I will not mention the name I'm sad to say that this new shit just isnt the same as the band that I was hooked on day after day And I know I am Only something to the kids on the floor We play no games We need no names This is all I want for myself This is all we want for ourselves We have things to say This is the way we know how to say it This is an outlet, you dont have to plug into us This is a reason, to never give up We will continue, doing our best This is the way we want to stay Be an example of your beliefs, be a sample and furthermore Be yourself Dont change your self, just to make money Dont lose your integrity, just to make money Dont let us down, just to make money Dont let us down, just to make money

I want to stress how much I wouldnt be okay If we didnt get to play My life's a mess, borderline nervous breakdown You're always broke, I'm always pissed I feel like I have missed out on a lot I havent fought all the battles I still want to win But I'm okay when I'm here I cant go long Cant go on Without this my favorite thing I dont think I can, I know I dont want to wait til Friday night I dont do well in the real world by myself I need my friends By my side telling me I'll be fine I know I cannot go long without this feeling that I love 2 days a week that I dont feel mad at all I've been stay late each night Til my brain convinces my heart It's time to slow down It's time to sleep right now But when I wake up This is all I'll ever want to This is all we ever want to do and I'm okay when I'm here

Dirt 05:06
Into a stranger's arms A shameful way of sidestepping pain I walked a mile on a fence to forget or remember your name I feel a pain and my heart will not obey I woke up Said "Fuck this" I'll keep my head up, you'll make your escape So far away Fuck It's your life, and it's your choice but I once considered you trustworthy Now you'll wake up in the morning without me When it's over you might realize youre full of regret and sorrow maybe today you dont need me you may kick yourself tomorrow you may kick yourself I'm down in the bottom again in the Dirt You kept my spirits high Back then You dont understand, permanent damage Has been done Pride and trust broken I'll climb towards the sun
