Trippin'

I can tell by the look in your eyes
everything about you is just telling the lies
the mask you wear is just a thin disguise
and there are too many things
going wrong at too many times
because you spent too long now trippin' up
stumblin down the road just hopin' for a light
it's been a long time since you've had to fight the good fight
looking for someone to fool and you know you just might
even if it winds up being just for one night

The Losing Side (Part 1)
02:03
|

When you can't really get around being branded there
with that scarlet letter
when you try and you try to make ends meet
but it never really gets any better
it takes years and a want
to ever get to sink this fucking low
you may think you have a good idea
but my friend you will never know
when you've done everything you could ever do
just so you don't have to hide
well, I hope you never know how it feels
being on the losing side

Tamed

Well, I know you don't feel ashamed
all those wrongs still remain
but maybe you're taking this all just a bit too far
all those people you named
all those things that you say
you know deep down inside
you're leaving me scarred
your tears fall down like wild and windy rain
but tell me what you really know about pain
you keep thinking that someday I'm gonna change
but honey I was never meant to be tamed
so what did you hope to gain
from this fucked up game
did you even see who it is you are
hoping I was tamed
honey I don't change
I'll just keep playin' my guitar
You keep waiting for me to obey
thinking that you deserve all of my praise
and every single time I try and get away
you seem to drag me right back down in your fucking maze

An Afterthought
02:53
|

|
I got a habit of wanting things quickly
if it doesn't happen I move onto the next
too many times now good things have missed me
didn't have the time though to see it was best
and I say go slow
your life's all you know
all of my life I've worked for someone else
fulfilling their dreams while mine turned to dust
never believing that I could do it myself
having not the glory, experience or guts...

Saving Myself
04:02
|

|
I awaken to a light
in my eyes
I can't escape this funny feeling
that I'm having inside
for the very first time
in my life
so I'll just go with it
but every time I turn around now
someone's trying to tell me something
that they think that I may already know
I never asked for advice about how to live my life
from you bud
so you should probably just let that shit go
I imagine there's a time
in your life
when you feel you have it all figured out inside
and then once you feel that and you go ahead and try
you find that you were so very wrong

Running Away

I've been running away from myself
just wishing that I was someone else
just please I can't take anymore
I'm gonna fucking snap
I'm living in this Hell
you know that I'm running away
day by day I'm planning my escape
I've spent too many damned days
in my head
going so lightly wherever I tread
just please I can't take anymore
I'm gonna fucking snap
or wind up dead
I can not undo the things that I've done
I can only do much better now
these uphill battles that I've won
don't matter when you're taking me down

Look, the gem on this album is really "With Sympathy". If you've never heard it, do yourself the service of listening to it. It'll change your life.

Two Parts Viper (Deluxe Edition)
by '68
I'm absolutely obsessed with these guys. Every single song is just down and dirty rock n roll. I absolutely recommend this to any and everyone.
go to album
The third album from this band is just an extension of the last album. They don't have any negative aspects to their music. Just down and dirty gritty rock n roll.
