Concrete & Country (NEW)
(No Fuego)
March 19, 2010
Down in Louisiana i was born in a scene of concrete and country with nothing to do and nowhere to go.
Almost every single night i'd grab myself a pint and jump into the van and head on down to the show.
*Another whiskey night under moon lit skies. I see stars as they shine and i'd love to watch them fall.
As these thoughts fill my head i drink until my eyes turn red and i watch them as they shine. I'd love to see them fall.
And here's to all the nights i spent alone, tryin hard to make it home.
Back to where it all began, back to where the sidewalk ends..
*Another whiskey night under moon lit skies. I see stars as they shine and i'd love to watch them fall.

Another State Line (NEW)
(No Fuego)
March 19, 2010
Another warm summer night,
Another 15 hour drive.
Can't remember much of last night,
I'm amazed we're still alive.
Road maps flashing through my head.
Now i'm feeling funny on the inside,
Like something just ain't right.
I catch my breath, slow my breathing.
Cross another state line.
Anxiety's attacking me.
Another day in the life of breaking your back to make ends meet.
*All day, everyday we're working our lives away, and sometimes it just don't seem right.
I don't wanna say i regretted anything, i just wanna live my life

Bloodshot (NEW)
(No Fuego)
January 12, 2010
Bloodshot, I can see right through it. Just look into my eyes and you’ll see I just can’t turn and walk away. 10 hours from home and this road’s too slow to see the sunrise set the 2nd time today. It’s the choices that we make. Well I love to live my life at home. Sometimes it can’t compare to life out on the open road. I just can’t wait to see what’s next.
Torn by the fork stuck in the road. Addicted to the feeling of nerves and nicotine and how we got here. You only get one chance to live your life.

You stand with your bags facing out towards the crew.
Your armor is brandished in all that you do.
Until the day comes when our worries are set free,
we'll fight for each other and live how we please.
We're sailing onward over uncharted seas, through hurricanes
and we've conquered those that deceive. We live our dreams,
cause in the end we know it's all we got.
So raise your swords and your bottle of E.
Stand your ground and remember what it's all about.
We won't surrender.
Heading to the unknown. Fucked up, 300 miles from home
and we're not stopping!
So raise your swords and your bottle of E.
Stand your ground and remember what it's all about.
We won't surrender. Not tonight...
Following Skylines
(No Fuego)
Off "Always Outnumbered"
I walk these streets at night only to find nothing on top of nothing, follow skylines. And the bar pillars are dancing in my head. Weakening my knees with every step. I keep my head wide open with nothing to hide. Promises made and broke, I died inside. And the bar pillars are dancing in my head. Weakening my knees with every step.
Always Outnumbered
(No Fuego)
Off "Always Outnumbered"
Is this now our anthem? Loneliness and heartbreak and all the wasted nights, they seem to stick to us like crazy glue. The inspiration has died. It died last night along with a part of me, rotting inside. And this is not the way I pictured, I’m not giving up…
Another night of surely wasting away. Again my mind goes astray. Just like letters with no words we seem to write everyday. And this is not the way I pictured giving up.
This is not the way I pictured giving up. Sure to fight a losing battle. Always outgunned.
Growing up I never asked for this. I didn’t wanna be helpless and on my knees. Crying for the world I loved, I watched it die. Moments passed, I grew inside. And I can’t go back to what I used to know.
This is not the way I pictured giving up. Sure to fight a losing battle. Always out gunned.
Always outnumbered, we’ll always be outgunned.
Live & Learn

off "Marshall's Law"
Ragged and my brain hurts. I can't believe they're following their part.
Losing my patience and fading again, not falling from what i believe in.
Out here on our own not trying to make a difference.
Doing what we know. Aint buying what your selling.
Don't need anyone but my friends and i'll say it again,
I wouldn't have it any other way.
Dead end job making ends meet, coupons cashed, shoes on my feet.
Live and learn or so it's said, to all my friends i won't forget.

Somethings Changing
(No Fuego)
Off "Always Outnumbered"
A violent envy of myself, i'm finding it in me. It's easier just to forgive than forget. And i can't leave it all behind, with friendship comes loyalty. But sometimes i can't trust myself. We're taught to live and learn, defeat and burn, bend and turn, give and yearn. I felt me body turn cold. (something's changing) A feeling that i've never known. And through my decay, i'm brought to life. I got something for you, a little piece of mind. Something you can't see but figure out through time. If happiness was for sale then we'd all be first in line. But we all have dreams so follow your heart and live your life. I felt me body turn cold. (something's changing) A feeling that i've never known. And through my decay, i'm brought to life. Education is the movement from darkness to light.
The Struggle

off "Dropping Expectations"
Given another shot. I swear this time we'll make it. (this is the path we're on) The road is free and clear, our eyes bloodshot but open.
One day we'll be on top of the fold.
Here's to another night. The end is nowhere in sight and all we got is time. The will to win the fight, we'll take whatever trouble comes our way and we won't let it keep us down.
Our heads under stars, the dreams we can't let go, fire burning in our hearts. (the hunger deep inside) It's what keeps us going and sometimes that's all we need to put us on top of the fold.
Here's to another night. The end is nowhere in sight and all we got is time. The will to win the fight, we'll take whatever trouble comes our way and we won't let it keep us down.
And this time we won't let go.
Ups & Downs

Off "Always Outnumbered"
Temperatures rise right through the ceiling. My body went numb from the feeling. And branded on my skin is dedication to my friends, so sit back and listen. For everything we’ve felt, I believe they’re 1,000 better days.
We’ve been knocked down and pushed around. This is what we’ve learned to know. Gonna make it through this with my friends. We’ll always have a place to go.
I’m not done with this. I don’t think I’ll ever be, and if I will we’ll I don’t wanna know. Lived the highs, lived the lows and I wouldn’t change it for the world.
It’s uncompromising and yet realizing that if I fall this is my net. And when I look out I see your smiling faces and it makes me feel like I am home.
We’ve been knocked down and pushed around. This is what we’ve learned to know. Gonna make it through this with my friends. We’ll always have a place to go.
There’s a song in our hearts of friendship and of unity that will never be sold or bartered away
