We're under attack A knife in the back form you The sirens wail and I'm on my way Tied to the world with these four strings I play And they're always out of tune Gotta list of your needs and wants 24 hour roadside resistance Is all I got for you Line 'em up and we'll knock 'em down All I got is this raging sound We make and you take what's not bolted down Just one match will burn this town And you'd look so pretty with your head on fire You brought me down but Joe's amplifier Cut through my body and I'm feeling higher Association of thieves and liars Resist- We're under attack A knife in the back from you We make our home wherever we lay I tie my hands with these four strings I play And I break one every other day Get your guitar cord and hang 'em high -ALRIGHT! Like a piñata we'll smash 'em for what's inside Then I'll be satisfied You sent us a letter. We wrote you a song The structure's weak but the message is strong Waiting in the shadows for you to respond You lit the fuse. We hold the bomb.

Night falls like the silence over Sudan Where children run like the blood on the sand And I can taste it like the dust that chokes this land A government sponsored slavery plan Lined up like cattle at an auction deprived Of everything that you and I have ever known All alone, wearing only the dreams of their far away home Back to the market Of endless profit Impoverished in famine, set me free A never ending cycle of slavery A cowardly silence plagues our land, where children are stolen from the Dinka clan And I can taste smokescreen that chokes this land A government sponsored slavery plan Branded like cattle at an auction deprived Of everything that you and I've ever known All alone, wearing only the dreams of their far away home I just want to close my eyes I don't want to agonize Over people I don't know I was asleep until you woke me up And now I see thee faces Of these kids in foreign places When I close my eyes

Systematically populated, Nuclear annihilation Mind rotting flesh eating cellular infection Genetically manipulated, human imitation All staring through my window as I sit here in damnation I wonder how it's gonna end, If we keep up this pace Will we progress? Or end the human race We're destroying our planet, We've fallen from grace I just can't take it anymore Take me to this place to This wall of sound that surrounds me Ands keeps me bound to the underground It's in my heart and in my soul I wanna kill you with my rock and roll And destroy the forces that control our pestilent existence Can't take it anymore, don't wanna think about it, it makes me sick I step outside and all I see is our deterioration When we're gone all that remains Will be plastic implantations And I can't tell the Christians from Satan's congregation So everyone climb aboard Nonstop to damnation! This run away machine Never slowing down Someone said "its Entropy" well its too late now We're far to gone We keep adding to this pile Just wanna sit back and listen for a while to this Wall of sound that surrounds me Ands keeps me bound to the underground It's in my heart and in my soul I wanna kill you with my rock and roll And destroy the forces that control our pestilent existence Can't take it anymore, don't wanna think about it, it makes me sick This pestilent Existence Humanity's persists in It grows like a plague While we whither away

Just keep your mouth shut And don't you try to obstruct us Your act of conscience protects everyone but now you've lost our trust And now you're a target for us Whistleblower, you're a whistleblower I heard you commit the truth And we'll deny and we'll dispute it Your integrity protects us all But in this institute it just serves to make you a target for us Cause when you speak out you will receive no praise and You will be blacklisted for the lives that you've saved Cause when you signed up, all your rights were waved We'll demote, harass, dismiss and intimidate We know that it's our fault But you've brought production to a halt So crawl back home and lick your wounds And we'll make sure to pack them full of salt You're just a target for us Hide this catastrophe We own the images that you see There's nothing that you can do The laws protect the industries And now you're just a fucking target for us

He's running wild through the streets at night But he's hiding in the shadows by the break of day He's got a clip-on Spyderco knife But it's just for keeping the wolves at bay It's 2am, fucked up again He's living in the bottle cause he's living with the pain Insane, poking his veins, he's standing in the rain With nothing to lose but everything to gain Unwanted and unforgiving He's tired of fighting and he's tired of living here Swigging beer with nothin' to fear He's got nothing to lose so he's always winning He's suffocating, the pain can be excruciating And liberating, it helps him forget the worlds he's hating And now he's waiting, there won't be any negotiating He's got nothing to lose He's been beaten and he's been bruised He ain't taking anymore of your abuse He's had enough of their institutions And all the rules he was told to obey They offered him no solutions So he hit the street before they put him away In a deprogramming youth care center To rid him of his insubordinate ways "You know that boy ain't right" is what you hear his parents say down on the world and down on his luck he's got nothing to lose so he don't give a fuck about shit taking risks in the street throwing bricks he's got nothing to lose but you've drove him to this trying hard to forget the past he's sleeping under the overpass of 1-95 just trying to survive just waiting for the moon to arise

Don't know I'm watching you and every move you make I know what you do and everything you say I hear loud and clear and there wont be no escape For those of you who won't cooperate So don't stand in our way, obey Or you'll be taken away and you will soon be forgotten mind and body rottin' and you'll pay for what you do and say I think you think too much- you think too much We're watching you And everything you do and say will come back some day Just look at this fucking mess you made Choose carefully the words you wish to speak Confiscated my zines and my lyric sheets Detained 8 hours, It was looking bleak They called the dogs, they called us thieves We stood and watched in disbelief They stripped our van to the cold concrete We pulled away to their defeat We made it to the show and didn't miss a beat So sign that line the lies that I create Will follow you and its unfortunate You opened your mouth and your words agitate And freedom of speech we will not tolerate

Stand in the crowd with your biggest pose You hide it well but everybody knows you and We watch just how you go along Easily led into battle by the first song Stalking your prey , single out the weak And beat them down because you're incomplete What's in your mind when our eyes are yours We've seen your image and you're uniform before What are you trying to gain acceptance to? I know your eyes and that sure isn't you We lost another. Run for cover Cause the next to taste the street might be you So stop the show and turn on the house lights So everyone can see a pathetic man fight Because he feels he lesser, he acts like the aggressor to you I've see your face in every town I've see your face in every crowd Tell us why it is you have to prove Just how easily the others bruise So many of us and so few of you We know your motives and were watching you We wouldn't miss you of you were gone Someone would take your place at the beginning of the next song

So you can't get it up you'd better take you medication Now you have an oily discharge running down your leg You're new girlfriend looks like the new sensation Plastic face and lips hide the feelings of despair I wanna feel like that I wanna look like her I wanna follow the leader and be part of the herd These ugly desires that were instilled In you by the companies that made you ill in the first place So doc do you think I have a problem? Yea you got lots, but that's ok we'll solve em' You're just gonna need a series of operations And take these pills for the rest of your life A body like Venus Your soul is on fire Such a pretty face With ugly desires And now you look back on how you used to be Cause you're new and improved but you're still unhappy Cause now there's something new on the television That you want to be I wanna feel like that I wanna look like her I wanna follow the leader and be part of the herd These ugly desires that were instilled In you by the companies that made you ill in the first place

Conspire to control The masses is your goal The lies we've bought you've sold But we're watching you And every grassy knoll and bell tower too Who's your next patay The lies caught up to you Speak till you're blue in the face But we'll never believe you We've weighed the evidence and what we conclude is He was the victim of a murder conspiracy A peaceful man with a broken dream to Unite the black and white And speak out against a useless fight in Vietnam then the business man said We can't have you interrupting our plan to Kill all the hippies boost the economy And to control our freedom of speech In the land of the free If you stir things up you'll be put to sleep By the bureau of investigation They'll plan your annihilation The click of a sniper trigger We'll put the blame on a lesser figure To confuse and distract Fuck the First Amendment Act Another victim helps pave the way for you One bullet made to many holes its true You can't be trusted. And we can't undo The things you've made and the things you'll do to the Do you think I'm trying to undermine the Authority we've given to you Or did you take it when you killed the truth

You want authority You want a war with me What motivated you To reinforce all policy You want authority You want a war with me And any opposition You suppress for a salary When I see you I should feel safe But I don't cause I know just how you take Advantage - Of your position The answer - Is sedition Don't understand so why don't you clue me in Cause there must be something that you're missing Somewhere deep within You say it keeps me free I have to disagree We've seen it before And we'll see it again You infringe upon the rights Of those you should defend

Another day in this broke down place The towers grow and the skies are slowly replaced With the cold gray structures that lay to waste Everything that stands in the way Stare at the ground as I walk on by You make me sick and I hate what I feel inside As I lobby for acceptance, you know I've tried Another life for you to nullify I'm weak inside because I see the shape of things to come I'm weak inside because I don't change what's begun I'm weak inside because I hate what I've become I'm feeling empty as I struggle with my thoughts each day Just a drone who contributes to his own decay An apathist who's sweat and blood grease the wheels for pay Just a whore for the puppeteer to whom I obey And nothing changes...No nothing changed today I close my eyes and keep my mouth shut Why am I afraid to stand up and knock them down When I've been betrayed You've been conditioned to accept everything they say So I walk on but I start to stumble Through the ruins of a life that's troubled By the expectations I'm conditioned to struggle for My possessions leave me self-absorbed So many bombs I've left unblown The streets are crowded and I feel so all alone Stacking bricks that to this day remain unthrown Yet I'm the one to cast the first stone

Stuck in a rut with no way out Cause of a time when things are all about Being better way back then And the complacent didn't ask questions So bow down to your master And fit the image bound straight for disaster Enslaved and misled By the lies that you've been fed As you lay there in deceit Caught up in your prefab dream The molds been forged for you Compliments of the red,white and blue To scared to break away What will they think? What will they say? If you live your life today And fuck this American way Disease! This Disease! With shit up to my knees!! Spreading across the nation from to filthy sea Just slavin away at the repetitious mass decay I did it yesterday and I'll do the same again Today is day I'm gonna break out I wanna run through the streets and give a shout Stay ahead from the sickness that falls on me So I lessen myself just to stay free I was choking from a victim right from the start You can use my body, but you Can't take my heart and soul away from me Cause I'm in control of my destiny

Well son are you feeling the pressuer yet? You know where you're from and you best not forget You can twist and contort it But I know you'll regret If you compromise all the blood that you've sweat And I feel it now when I'm forced to produce Cause this gift I've been given I've learned to abuse I've asked for this rope And I've made a fine noose for myself It's no excuse, It's no excuse I heard thy're like assholes I know I can be one So I'll be the best one I can be I won't compromise I just can't organize My thoughts with it hovering over me So we'll scream when we've finished triumphantly Fuck the deadlines And you!

Like a good friend The shadow from the landfill Visits my house everyday The glow from the reactor Keeps me warm at night And I always feel safe That was yesterday Now they're telling me That you've exposed me to your sickness And I know it's just a song but you can take it and you can stick it Where the fucking sun don't sunshine Cause it don't round here no more And lately I've been inclined To strike a few different chords With no apologies We're going down With best regards from Turkey Point You raped the land and sea and sky And now it's us that you exploit And I know I shouldn't drink the water Or breathe too deeply anymore A stench settles on Princeton When it rains sometimes And it's absorbed Into every pore And they're telling me And still they offer no apology And they show no remorse The glow from the reactor Chokes the stars at night And I know the source
