Take away the lights
Take away the planes
Take away the guns and drugs and TV screens
Take everything away
And I guarantee
We'll still make it everyday
Take away the cars
And take away the buildings
Take away the shopping malls and video games
Take away the distractions and maybe
We'll be reminded we are human beings
We've lost our innocence already
We've poisoned our lands with all our cities
We're killing ourselves from the insides
Polluting our bodies
Polluting our minds
Take away the colors
Take away the classes
Take away the rich and add them to the masses
And when we're on the same side we'll see
We're the only ones left to blame for everything
Take away the violence
Take away indecision
Take away mistrust
And take away fear
Take away all the hate please
Take the sorrow and the sadness
And all will be left is peace
We've lost our innocence already
We've poisoned our lands with all our cities
We're killing ourselves from the insides
Polluting our bodies
Polluting our minds

Where did the time go?
When does the sun set in the west?
Where did the time go?
Years pass like minutes
How many left?
Sleepless nights
Restless days
So many anxieties
Worried about everything
That I love that might go away
Please just stay
The lives we lead are transient
Constant impermanence
I know it's always been that way
But those fucking vultures are circling
Circling
Circling
And they're coming for me
Where did the time go?
Where did the time go?
Where did the time go?
And no one knows how much is left

Too reserved to think
About what it meant to me
But now it's gone
I got a hold of a bright light
Transfixed I was sucked inside
And now I'm gone
Down that road of indifference
I crossed too many times
But I didn't really see anything at all
I didn't pay close attention
To those flashing warning lights
And I didn't really see anything wrong
But I was wrong
What's in the past is the past
No reason to hold that against myself
And I can use those memories
To help to guide what's right for me
Because I don't want to go
Down that road of indifference
I crossed too many times
But I didn't really see anything at all
I didn't pay close attention
To those flashing warning lights
And I didn't really see anything wrong
But I was wrong
And it's all right to kill some time
But when we're killing ourselves
You know there's something wrong
When you don't feel anything at all

Burning Ember

I saw you this morning
Held up by the bus stop waiting
For the green line to take you away
I was watching closely
To see if there was a light left in your eyes
I thought I saw it flicker
Flicker then fade away
I couldn't take my eyes off you
Because I knew if I looked away for even a second
You'd be lost forever
It's like the wind was blowing
And I was trying to
Hold onto that burning ember
I saw you again today
In the faces of 1000 people
Still holding on to that dream
Their eyes were worn and blurry
But hopeful for a day when
They could see the light like you had
Long ago, shining on everything
Long ago you had an eye full of passion
Long ago you could set a spark and ignite everything
Long ago you had an eye for excitement
Another cocktail set ablaze
With flames to the ceiling
Long ago you had a life full of passion
Long ago you could set a spark and ignite everything
Long ago you had an eye for excitement
Another cocktail set ablaze
With flames to the ceiling

Set It Off

Well I locked it all away just like I've always done before
Sold the rest of the memories down to the record store
You can have what's left because the meanings all have changed
I'll keep a book of matches and a can of gasoline
And set it off
Watch the history burn up to the sky
No more conversations wondering why
The past is gone and with it you and I
So why can't I?
Kicking through the rubble after the ash has blown away
I loaded up the back seat because it's time to move again
Strip the foundation back to just an empty space
Erasing any traces of the life that we had made
I blocked the rearview mirror out for good
I threw away the stories like we should
And set it off
Watch the history burn up to the sky
No more conversations wondering why
The past is gone and with it you and I
So why can't I?
And set it off
Watch the history burn up to the sky
No more conversations wondering why
The past is gone and with it you and I
So why can't I?

I'm a punk first
I'm a husband first
I'm a friend first
I'm a father first
I'm the only one who can decide
What's right for me in this world gone crazy
I'm a sinner
I'm a user
I've wasted so much time getting my shit together
I've got my heart stuck in everything
So I ain't walking away unless you're coming with me
And there's something going wrong
We got our back against the walls
It's time to stand up and see who's been picking up the right messages
Punk's more than just a fashion
Punk's more than just music
It's unity
It's brotherhood
It's salvation from the masses
It's the ideas
And the ideals
That you and me we will be counted on
And there's nothing wrong with another unity song
I'm a punk first
I'm a husband first
I'm a friend first
I'm a father first
I'm the only one who can decide
What's right for me in this world gone crazy
I'm a sinner
I'm a user
I've wasted so much time getting my shit together
I've got my heart stuck in everything
So I ain't walking away unless you're coming with me
At least that's what it means to me

Let's pack our bags tonight
Get in the car and drive
And let the stars be the guide for you and me
We'll pick the brightest one
Make a wish and follow it out to where the horizon meets the sea
We've got to take the chance to play before it's too late
And I hope it's never too late
Westbound 10
We're on the road again
Driving through the morning
Straight out into the ocean
Westbound 10
We'll go and chase your dreams
And let tomorrow bring what it will bring
Westbound 10
The pier's calling my name
The salty sea air in my face
While the fishermen are out for the trophy of the day
It beats the desert sand
So come on out and take my hand
Today's responsibilities can wait another day
We've got to take the chance to play before it's too late
And I hope it's never too late
Westbound 10
We're on the road again
Driving through the morning
Straight out into the ocean
Westbound 10
We'll go and chase your dreams
And let tomorrow bring what it will bring
Westbound 10
We've got to take the chance to play before it's too late
And I hope it's never too late
Westbound 10
We're on the road again

Straight out into the ocean

We'll go and chase your dreams
And let tomorrow bring what it will bring
