Since I am super behind on this, here are the lyrics from our demo.
Burn The Papers
Why does it feel like I am the only one Who feels the pain and the damage done Why are we repeating simple mistakes Of the ones who have long since passed away
History is repeating itself each day History is repeating itself each day
Ignorance builds moral decay Our children will be burning soon enough And who can our loved ones trust?
Can we not open our eyes to the agendas pushed our way Education corruption and political slaves
Does not matter as long as you get paid You’re a power hungry whore dying to get laid
Think of others lives think of crimes committed in front of our eyes Think of crimes committed in front of our eyes
The media's said enough Burn the papers it's all gone corrupt
Into Myself
I want to close my eyes and forget everything around me No matter how I try to block it out, I still hear the shouting “Which way is life taking me each day?” I ask but to no surprise, I hear nothing back I look to the skies for piece of mind and I remember the times I cried
Stop telling me I am doing this in vain I feel all of you feeding off my pain I never understood the tears I cried, I never understood why Why it was always this way with an ignorant father and mother's broken dreams Innocence lost never taken back and I still yearn for a light The one thing that has made me want to keep life With all the grief I have felt, it has slowly made me into myself (Grief)
Aspirations (...Reprise)
Made of false pride and blood I do not wish to have in my veins But the aspirations that I hold onto will never change Made of false pride and blood, made of false pride and blood From a coward grandfather who lied to his family To a grandmother with memories that she could not bury To a family that will not accept common, we are stuck at the bottom To a father looking for happiness in a bottle, To a mother with insecurities that always follow I am the product of dysfunction and unhappiness Manifested
This will not break my spirit or what I feel, I’ve just accepted reality and what is real And I push on through this, past negativity and years of strife I am separate from that of my mother and father And if you can hear me I wish I could have helped you my brother I have learned that our father's mistakes will never be repeated
Made of false pride and blood I do not wish to have in my veins But the aspirations I hold onto will never change Made of false pride and blood, made of false pride and blood
We are in control of our broken souls Broken souls

I deleted all of our old posts considering we have new members and a lot has gone on since I have last been on this thing.

Our next show is May 29th at the Cat Cave with almost every Atlanta hardcore band it's going to be smelly, sweaty, sticky and awesome. We are working out details for a possible tour in July with our friends from Cincinnati Sleeptalkers!
