IGNITION
SESSION 
I don't know when it got this way 
I don't know how long she's gonna stay 
Every week it's the same in her room 
That's why I came 
Here I go, I go again 
Our rendezvous never seem to end 
I know where I'll be, I'll make this confession 
Back in her bed for another goddamn session 
CHORUS 
I'll never learn 
God knows I try 
Keep coming back for session 
And I don't know why 
I'll never learn, I'll never see 
Just tell me why these sessions got a hold on me 
Some might say it's a fling 
For all I know it don't mean a thing 
Either way I can't complain 
Ain't no strings 
Guess I got it made 
Here I go, I go again 
Our rendezvous' never seem to end 
I know where I'll be 
I'll make this confession 
Back in her bed for another goddamn session 
CHORUS 
*****
WE ARE ONE 
We are one with ourselves 
We don't give a shit about anyone else 
Well it won't be wrong until our day in the sun is gonna stop 
The walls come tumbling down 
CHORUS 
We are one 
We are free 
We are headed for obscurity 
We are one 
We are weak 
We are gonna make ourselves extinct 
Let it go 
We're gonna let it go 
It's real, we are one 
You know it's true 
Don't fuck with us or we'll fuck with you 
It's a mentality that kills the best 
We better stop 
The walls come tumbling down 
CHORUS 
We are one and it won't be news 
When we hang ourselves with one collective noose 
Well, it won't be wrong until our day in the sun is gonna stop 
The walls come tumbling down 
*****
KICK HIM WHEN HE'S DOWN
'Hey, you're a riddle', 
I say as I move aside 
(Like I really need your advice) 
But you won't leave it alone 
Little men try but don't get a lot done 
Living in sin doesn't move me either way 
I get a feeling you're so vague 
Like I said before 
Little men come when anything goes 
CHORUS 
When the rain comes I sit home and pray 
Make it all numb 
I wish it all away 
All I really need is just somewhere to hide away 
Kick him when he's down 
Here alone I'll put up and fight 
Kick him when he's down 
Beat me all the way I'll take it all night 
Kick him when he's down 
Hey, don't worry, I'll get along home alright 
Hey, everybody's supposed to be the same 
So how come they're so lame? 
It's like taking a fall 
Keep on running back into that wall 
Awake in a dream, get up and go to work 
But I'm feeling like such a jerk 
Like I said before 
Little men come when everything goes 
CHORUS 
'Hey, you're a riddle' I say as I move aside 
(Like I really need your advice) 
But you won't leave it alone 
Little men try but don't get a lot done 
Living in sin doesn't move me either way 
I get a feeling you're so vague 
Like I said before 
Little men come when anything goes 
*****
TAKE IT LIKE A MAN
When you won't go along 
Some will feel like you can't find your way 
Heaven knows 
Heaven knows I've seen it all before 
Now don't get me wrong 
I've seen many a life gone astray 
When someone goes 
All your bows won't make it any better so let it go 
CHORUS 
Shut up and take it like a man 
You need us to get a life 
For your own good we'll take you by the hand 
'Cause you need a little more 
Maybe no one will say it 
Maybe no one's aware it goes on 
All I know 
All I know it's like going off the deep end 
Could you make a decision? 
Could you think for yourself and go on? 
Everyone knows 
Everyone knows you've got to fit into the mainstream so save your woes 
CHORUS 
Close your eyes 
Look away now 
Make believe while you can 
So you'd best go along 
Don't let on if you can't find your way 
Many more 
Many more do it for you 
Because heaven knows 
Heaven knows it's like playing with fire 
Your life's a throw 
CHORUS 
*****
GET IT RIGHT
I've been told that to get what you want 
You just gotta give what you can 
But I know for what I want it don't come easy as that 
They say, "Look out, boy 
Tomorrow comes and things will look better by then." 
But I'll look out the window 
Then look in the mirror at the same old me again 
CHORUS 
Still can't get it right 
And for all I know 
I swear I never will 
Do you think you'd sell your soul 
To just have one thing to turn out right? 
For the thousandth time you turn and find 
That it just makes no difference to try 
Like Holden Caulfield, I tell myself 
There's got to be a better way 
Then I lay in bed and stare at the ceiling 
Dream of brighter days 
CHORUS 
No way out 
Same old stuff always drags me down 
No way out 
Never gonna get it 
*****
DIRTY MAGIC
I've been told that to get what you want 
In my own simple way 
I think she wants me only 
She said," Come over right away." 
But she's just not that way 
Her little soul is stolen 
See her put on her brand new face 
CHORUS 
Pull the shades 
Razor blades 
You're so tragic 
I hate you so but love you more 
I'm so elastic 
The things you say 
Games you play 
Dirty magic 
I should know better than to think I'd reach inside her 
It's all a cloudy kind of daze 
She's not so sweet today 
She mocks me, I'm no fighther 
It all just seems like such a waste 
It's oversimplified 
HYPODERMIC
When you're feeling low 
Hypodermic's where you go 
When you're with yourself 
You wish you could be someone else 
CHORUS 
Can't you see like you saw anymore 
Can't you feel like you felt before 
Can't you face anything anymore 
When life's a waste 
Run away 
Your life's a waste 
Run away 
Once you get a ride 
Doesn't matter where you lied 
Once you shoot it in 
Doesn't matter who you've been 
You're reaching in but you don't know where to begin 
All your dance and song won't matter when you're gone 
*****
BURN IT UP 
I think I'm burning up inside 
I think I'll take a little ride 
I'm gonna light up everything in sight 
I'll drive on by your yard 
And throw a Molotov cocktail at your car 
Then another in the local bar 
CHORUS 
Ignition 
They call it an obsession but I think it's kinda bitchen' 
I think it's kinda neat 
Yeah, I'm a pyro 
I wanna burn it up 
Yeah, I'm a pyro 
Tonight this 'hood will be a pyre 
I'm gonna set your house on fire 
I'll dance around the pretty flames 
Such a wonderful game 
CHORUS 
I want to make a tiki torch 
I'm gonna throw it on your porch 
Then I'm gonna run away 
And come back another day 
So many houses, so little time 
So many reasons, I'm not a crime 
I'd like to set you up
I'd like to set you up 
*****
NO HERO
Once you said you'd stick to it until the end 
I guess you lied, they call it suicide 
Now you're gone 
What was so wrong that you couldn't find a way to carry on? 
Second guess 
Did I do my best 
There was a friend I had 
CHORUS 
Johnny was a weirdo 
So what did you expect? 
I ain't no fucking hero 
I'm just trying to survive myself 
I should have known you went through it alone 
I wonder why did you even try? 
You could have come to me 
I would have helped you see 
You could have found a way to carry on 
Second guess 
Did I do my best 
There was a friend I had... 
CHORUS 
'Johnny's strange behavior was a tip-off,' they say 
But I ain't no fucking savior 
I'm just living day by day 
Little things, little lives hanging 'til the end 
I say it doesn't really mean nothing 
Telling truth, telling lies 
I used to have a friend 
I say it don't really mean nothing 
And I can't let this feeling go 
Let this feeling go 
Let this feeling go 
*****
L.A.P.D.
When cops are taking care of business I can understand 
But the L.A. story's gone way out of hand 
Their acts of aggression, they say they're justified 
But it seems an obsession has started from the inside 
They're shooting anyone who even tries to run 
They're shooting little kids with toy guns 
Take it to a jury but they don't give a damn 
Because the one who tells the truth is always the policeman 
CHORUS 
Beat all the niggers 
Beat whoever you see 
Don't need a reason 
(We're) L.A.P.D. 
The city of L.A. feels like a prison 
With helicopters overhead and bullets whizzing by 
Martial law ain't no solution 
Police brutality's just social pollution 
Beat all the white trash 
Beat whoever you see 
Don't need a reason 
(We're) L.A.P.D. 
They say they're keeping the peace 
But I'm not buying it because a billy club ain't much of a pacifier 
"Protecting your freedom" 
Now that's just a lie 
It's an excuse for power that's more like an alibi 
Law and order doesn't really matter 
When you're the one getting bruised and battered 
You take it to a jury, they'll throw it in your face 
Because justice in L.A. comes in a can of mace 
CHORUS 
*****
NOTHING FROM SOMETHING 
Things are coming down on me 
They never seem to let it be 
It seems like everything I say just starts another fight 
The pressure's building up inside 
I gotta let it out tonight 
Shattered glass will cure my ills and make me feel alright 
CHORUS 
Gonna break it 
And never stop running 
Making nothing from something 
Making nothing from something 
Cut me for the lion's share 
It's mindless, but I don't care 
'Cause no matter what I say 
I'm in another fight 
Take more shit, I've had enough 
Tonight I'm gonna rip it up 
Broken windows cure my ills and make me feel alright 
CHORUS 
*****
FOREVER AND A DAY 
Look at me while I look at you 
Seeing eye to eye we can never do 
You try to tell me what is right 
I may not know a lot but I know one thing 
CHORUS 
If you've got the answer 
Then I don't want to know 
If you've got the answer 
Just keep it your own 
I wonder why our world is ablaze 
Sometimes I speak aloud to hear what people have to say 
I try to have an open mind 
But your brain and mouth must not be connected 
If you've got the answer 
Then I don't want to know 
If you've got the answer 
Just leave me alone 
I would be patient but it takes so long 
I don't want all this misinformation 
All the words that you say 
Lean on me while I lean on you 
If we destroy each other 
We might save a life or two 
A little sun, a little shine 
Separates us both by forever and a day 
CHORUS 
If you've got a vision 
Then I don't want to see 
If you've got a notion 
Don't waste it on me
