In my car trapped in the backseat
The dial felt far away from me
Nothing on I could see myself in
And no idea what to believe
Left my life of feeling nothin'
I'm skippin' town not coming back
Cas when it's on I feel like somethin'
I'm burning coal straight down the track
When blue skies turn into grey
I put my tape in and hit play
And feel my sadness fade away
Everything fell into place
Led me in with all it's charm
And welcomed me with open arms
Good kid never failed a class at school
Felt suffocated by another rule
Class full of people but feeling abandoned
High school logo hoodie they'd walk hand in hand in
All ages venues and dimly lit basements
Were medical marvels for all the sick patients
They had a place where they all could belong
They had a place they could all sing along
When blue skies turn into grey
I put my tape in and hit play
And feel my sadness fade away
Everything fell into place
Led me in with all it's charm
And welcomed me with open arms
Whoooooooah
Led me in with all it's charms and lead me in without open arms
Whoooooooah
Led me in with all it's charms and lead me in without open arms
When blue skies turn into shades of grey
I put my music on and the clouds fades away
Without it how do they feel complete
Hangin' from the rafters
And skankin' to the beat
When blue skies turn into grey
I put my tape in and hit play
And feel my sadness fade away
Everything fell into place
Led me in with all it's charm
And welcomed me with open arms
Whoooooooah
Led me in with all it's charms and lead me in without open arms
Whoooooooah
Led me in with all it's charms and lead me in without open arms

Throw Em' Over

This is it it's happening on our street
The kids stomping with their feet
We got our chains to lose and a world to win
We're jumping in the deep end where the fat cats swim
We're goin' one two three at the top of the night
Down to the city and we're lookin' to fight
Lurking in the shadows where they cast no light
Whole damn cities gonna burn tonight!
One rule
NO RULES!
Three Four
ONE TWO!
Kickin' down our door because we're hanging out
Shaking up our nation's what it's all about
They sold out our future so we'll throw them out
Over and over and over and over OH YEAH!
This is it now this is war
We're knockin' down your door
A worm could see it from miles away
The instinct to revolt lights up the day
We're goin' one two three at the top of the night
Down to the city and we're lookin' to fight
Lurking in the shadows where they cast no light
Whole damn cities gonna burn tonight!
One rule
NO RULES!
Three Four
ONE TWO!
Kickin' down our door because we're hanging out
Shaking up our nation's what it's all about
They sold out our future so we'll throw them out
Over and over and over and over OH YEAH!

Radio Says No

Corporate sponsor sings a hymn
The artist can't find their way in
Boardroom writers drink champagne
They lit the fuse tied to his name
News reporter's gun is cocked
Communion line wrapped around the block
Raw report fell off the desk
We could only hear the rest
And the radio says no
And the radio says no
And the radio says no
And the radio says
Hey now man just let me know
And the radio says no
World goes on another day
Checks were cashed and put away
Money transfers to the top
Lobbying means it won't stop
And the radio says no
And the radio says no
And the radio says no
And the radio says
Hey now man just let me know
And the radio says no

Nightmare

Thunder in the storm today
The people couldn't roll away
The north side won't be weeping at his final hour
Knife they put in our back
Drawing closer every time
Cut the red tape at the camp today
Where the dreams they had would fade away
They flew his name in lights as a progressive power
Life that's lived authentic
Is now guilty of a crime
It's a nightmare
Running free from every wrong they wrote for you
Everything you wanna see
They kept right out of view
And we'll see the place in flames again
We will see the place ablaze again
I saw the news today
And ordered chinese takeaway
I couldn't be awoken by the cell phone towers
Young me wrapped in plastic
Old me waiting out in line
I'm gonna scream it in your ear
Run you the fuck out of here
To join the rest of the monsters of history
And we'll pay no mind
It's a nightmare
Running free from every wrong they wrote for you
Everything you wanna see
They kept right out of view
All these hours sucked up by
A vampire that's bleeding us all dry
A therapist whose pockets full
Of misery they made for you and I
All these hills and valleys I have traveled in my head
A bakery for everyone
In the conquest of bread
It's a nightmare
Running free from every wrong they wrote for you
Everything you wanna see
They kept right out of view

From All the Dust
04:04

When it's cold outside
When there's no place to hide
They'll bury you in snow and gouge your eyes
When they're over your shoulder
And you've gotta make a choice
You have to do the best with time while you're alive
This is how it was
I stood on trial with all my peers who took the bus
To where it all died
And I watched them cry
We gotta build a brand new world from all the dust
And well the money's spent
But they're collecting rent
The landlord burns the house while you're in bed
When money talks it screams so loud
The words no one would say
The greatest story ever told will not be read
This is how it was
I stood on trial with all my peers who took the bus
To where it all died
And I watched them cry
We gotta build a brand new world from all the dust
The bomb blew as expected
And the bad ones never cease
The evidence was covered up by the police
They'll beat you and they'll kick you
Til you're rabid in the streets
It's up to every one of you to break the leash
This is how it was
I stood on trial with all my peers who took the bus
To where it all died
And I watched them cry
We gotta build a brand new world from all the dust
