Self Destruction 03:54
lyrics
Self Destruction Yeah the American dream was nice while it lasted Back in the day when the radio blasted If the money got tight you could count on your savings Now you’re pretty lucky if your job is still paying Times are rough and the headlines are shitty Well it’s rat eat dog here in New York City You could be a rich man if your daddy’s rich too You could starve or you could prosper but it’s really not up to you Well all give We all fight We’re trying just to make it through the long night Do we live by design? Praying someone holds the key to salvation The road to destruction is our own creation You bring the whiskey and I’ll bring the shotgun If the world’s gonna blow, then we might as well have some fun You could riot and plunder and loot for a small fee Tell me when is the government coming to bail out me Praying someone holds the key to salvation (We all live, we all fight) The road to destruction is our own creation (We’re trying just to make it through the long night) The road to destruction is our own creation (We all live, we all die) The road to redemption is our own creation

The Loser 04:39
lyrics
The Loser I don’t wanna waste my time Holding onto something that ain’t right My heart has been on cruise control Heading for a crash at the end of the night Maybe this is destiny girl No one said that fate won’t bring you pain Admit it Things have changed I’m giving up I don’t wanna love you My mind’s made up I don’t wanna care She’s been playing her games Now I’m the loser I knew it was a matter of time ‘Til I would lose her The writing was on the wall I guess I could have told her She’s been messing around And now it’s over Maybe I’m the one to blame I haven’t been around too much lately I love when you pretend there’s nothing wrong ‘Cause you don’t have the guts to face me Yes I’m sorry But what’s done is done The show has ended The last note’s been sung I’m gonna throw the fight And it’ll be alright Yeah I really need to let you slip away The world is turning around I think I’m West Coast bound I’ll have my tickets bought by noon today So have your fun But your day will come He will treat you just the same

No More Waiting 04:48
lyrics
I’m feeling jaded I’m suffocated Working for the man has got me Doubting I can make it I’m feeling hollow This shit’s too much to swallow If I had a million bucks I’d be a world away tomorrow They try to rule you Think they can fool you They bait you with a buck And then do anything to screw you But I don’t worry Instead I’ll hurry I’ll make my break at five And drive off in a blaze of glory Tonight we leave it all behind We’ve earned our chance to lose our minds No more waiting for these summer nights 2 AM and there is no end in sight We’ve been waiting for these summer nights There’s no sleep ‘til we start to see the light TGI Friday What else can I say? In a little while I will be free to do it my way One more hour I feel empowered Someone tell me why Such precious little time is ours It’s ten to five Almost quitting time The minutes passing by I’ll make it if it kills me Just two more to go And I’m a one man show You don’t even know How this moment does fulfill me Now the summer’s gone And we’re all still here You gotta raise your glass And toast another year

Make up Your Mind 04:29
lyrics
I’ve got a friend Who’s got a friend who’s such a tease With just a word She’ll have you on your knees I’m stuck on her Its borderline OCD I’ll never stop As long as it’s good for me Make up your mind I don’t have the time To sit around waiting for you You had your chance But now that it’s past I should probably look for somebody new Tell me all the things I don’t want to know Show me silver lining before you go I think that this abuse has taken its toll How do I know That your words will be true? You could just lie And I won’t have a clue Say it again And I’ll pretend not to hear I heard obsession Was in fashion this year Go on say it I can’t scan your brain Go on Make my illusions go away Go on say it Before I go insane Go on I can’t wait another day Tell me all the things I don’t wanna know Show me silver lining before you go I think that this abuse has taken its toll Tell me what you’re doing after the show I think that this abuse has taken its toll

On the Run 04:05
lyrics
Let’s take a rest It’ll be alright In time this is all gonna fade I know a place Where we both can hide Far from this mess that we made We were foolish But we can’t turn back now I’d redo it But I just don’t know how Baby we are living on the run And we never thought it could be done We’re still holding on as strong as ever The punishment don’t always fit the crime And even innocence can hurt sometimes If we gotta fall we’ll fall together I know it’s tough Scraping by each day Relying on strength to survive The reach of the law Is not far away And they’ll take us dead or alive Don’t you worry Because I got a plan We’ll keep moving Until we reach the promised land I should have known A long long time ago That we’d make out like bandits We’re far from home But I think the time has shown That the two of us can stand it

Home 05:08
lyrics
Driving down the parkway one last time Maybe I’ll take Route 35 Through the heart of the Amboys I’m just a kid from the suburbs of NJ But I’m still looking for the way In a sea of white noise Not to be sentimental But this town took eighteen years to raise me It may sound like nothing special But I’m going back before I go crazy Going home where I can find me Going home where the lights don’t blind me Home is a word that can have a lot of meanings But home is home no matter what you’re feeling Walking on the boardwalk late at night Snacking on bags of salty fries Wash it down with candy We never had a care from year to year Gonna grab a slice and then a beer From some shore town shanty Maybe I’m too nostalgic Our glory days are in the past now Childhood won’t live forever But memories will help it last now Make it last now So it don’t fade away It’s funny how we never did appreciate The things we used to love to hate When we were younger We couldn’t wait to get the hell out of this place But blemishes we wish we could erase We can’t resent any longer
