Nothing Left 04:14
lyrics

No need for punks to seal the deal ‘cause no future is now for real No more bees on summer meals No one to tell you how it feels What will we do with no beer to get drunk? Who will we fight with no one else around? What will we do with no beer to get drunk? Who will we fight with no one else around? So many promises were made By egotistic fucking liars No more birds shitting on your head No oil to rot leaders’ brain What will we do with no beers to get drunk? Who will we fight with no one else around? What will we do with no beers to get drunk? Who will we fight with no one else around? Just think about life As it used to be Good times are gone Nothing left to see We laughed – Enjoyed – And lied We cough – We suffer – We’ll die

A Purpose For Violence 04:13
lyrics

Daily life is a cure To being too nice So tired to try To keep kindness alive It can be better to smile It can be better to kiss Is temptation too strong? Is the world too hard? It feels like everybody’s up To find a good reason to die Can we blame mother Earth Go heat up like a time bomb! Dog eat dog they say A little more each day Dog eat dog they say A little more each day Praising a different God A purpose for violence Looking someone in the eye A purpose for violence The wrong time the wrong place A purpose for violence Anything you can say A purpose for violence, for the fighting, for the killing, for the rich and for the poor There is no need to talk Better roll the dice There is nothing to do It’s hate at first sight Can be better to smile Can be better to kiss Is temptation too strong? Is the world too hard?

Can't Compete 03:51
lyrics
buy track
Doing barely nothing Watching the world collapsing Drinking smoking sleeping Never found life motivating 'Cause I miss the fucking train Not to live my life in vain So I chose to ignore the pain And think I go against the grain Can't compete can't complain I'm so bored Never sad never glad I can't cope Come to me my friend - I will never let you down I'll stick to you somehow - Every day every hour Come to me my friend - I will never let you down I'll stick to you somehow - Every day every hour I'm trolling my own life not knowing why The best way I found to pass it by

Care For Yourself 04:19
lyrics
I've been down, I've been working extra hours Fighting the blues that was hitting sweet and sour A big jerk, knowing nothing whatsoever But fuck it all, the whole counterfeit is over I / we felt sorrow But I don't care anymore What humankind we used to be Do you wonder What your future life will be? Don’t you know fate can be unfair? What's left now, of the things you once desired? Are they gone like the feeling of innocence? No need to worry about opinions of others Your life is short, take the most of every hour

Beer Me Strength 04:22
lyrics
buy track
Late for class But best of all A metal fan Riff mastermind English teacher Respected man All the things you did for us They will live forever All the songs you wrote with us We will sing forever All the songs you wrote with us We will sing forever You were the one to have fun with You were the friend to be trusted Always calm and reassuring Chris in Lust it wasn’t your time Gone too soon we will miss you bro What to do? Where to go? We’re still here so let’s flow Beer me strength from your final home There was a time, we were young and feisty A time we lived – A time we loved – A time lost in time

The Unknown 03:52
lyrics
buy track
When pasta, toilet paper are driving everyone insane The only things we need are some better working brains Our idiocratic world will lead us to our fall The only thing we need is way less stupid folks Our idiocratic world will lead us to our fall All scared of one another, all scared of the world Fast to the unknown - Each one on his own Conspiracy nuts - A playground for their cause Fast to the unknown - Each one on his own Conspiracy nuts - Fuckers Good to stay at home Bad to lose control When home means home alone The world seems to break down Will you stay home? Will you stay safe? Are you a useless man? Are you a pointless prick?
