1. _ War Baby
Cast from the heart of deceit
The struggling arm of defeat
The army of doom marches on
From out of the night traids to dawn
War baby
Oh you without face, without form
Who force us to fight in your war
It's easy to see what is not
Believing it's something we've got
War baby
You've raped and invaded, degraded us
When will you stop?
You raise us, protect and defend
Slaughter our thoughts with your pens
Train us with treacherous
While whispering we are too young
War baby

2. _ D.o.a.
Into dark waters flow - bad dreams of long ago
Children who never knew - what doors would open to
Flights taking weary souls - life shakes of bitter cold
Love tears on golden shores - teenaged, no more
(chorus)
What made you take the trip
How could you go so quick
Out through the open door
I wish i'd loved you more
D. o. a.
Pure as the driven snow - innocence now quickly goes
Hard pressed between the folds - inside the overcoat
Warm hearts and homeless bound - beware the city sound
Lying there below the street - broken, hard and beat
In cries of angels fall - in time you hear them all
Each face a deeper down - each heard a highway sound
Bound for the twilight flash - in tears the blinding match
A moments flame now cold - i knew her long ago

3. _ Running Scared
The imaginary line that we don't dare cross
That innocent side that might be lost
That dangerous beast that lies inside
That public cry, that never knowing
The dark at the top of the stairs
I'm running scared
That fading youth that leaves no trace
That tick-tick-ticking that leaves no trace
That final design, that self-destruct
That condescending critic who's out for blood
The dark at the top of the stairs
I'm running scared
That twilight flash, that one-night stand
That grand illusion, that radar scan
That piece by piece, that bit by bit
That electric whine by mechanical lips
The dark at the top of the stairs
I'm running scared

4. _ Revenge
Bad blood stirring in the boiling pot
Finger on the trigger of a gun
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
It's an old web being spun
Born from the seeds of anger and hatred
Do it to them like they do
It's only revenge and the worst of it all
It all comes back to you
Envy treads at the breaking edge
Wheredogs begin to wail
Sarrow imprisoned the widows eyes
Like arrows too, they fell
Trying to balance the scales of injustice
Do it to them like they do
It's only revenge and the worst of it all
It all comes back to you
The hounds pursue the weary step
As silver etched the sent
Chasing down the passions of mans convictions
Escaping time he'd never spent
Half starved and running
He'll pay for his blindness
Racing the bullets of hate
Thirteen steps an a dead mans walk
It's always been this way
It all comes back to you

5. _ We Won't Change
Deep in my heart, right from the start
We had the look, we never took
People want to know how come we stay the same
But we won't change - not like that
We never knew what we would go through
Time could stand still but we never will
People want to know how come we stay the same
But we won't change - not like that
Straight from the soul, how could they know
We'll never do what they want us to
People want to know how come we stay the same
But we won't change - not like that

6. _ Social Contender
Logically appraise the situation
Sizing-up the ones who'll do you good
Realize it's not merely position
That gets you to the top that's understood
(chorus)
You can't live with yourself
So live off someone else
You say your one of us
But you're really one of them
So don't pretend - social contender
This rule by ladders hazardous ascent
Your path is strewn with others who have bent
Ambition hides from view those who are falling
Convince yourself you'll not be like those crawling
Laughing in the face of their distress
Believing they're impressed with your success
You'll find out the street you travel narrows
Poisoned by the edge of social arrows
Social contender, social pretender, social defender

7. _ Not The Only One
I'm not the only one, the only lonely one
You know who you are, afraid to lose your hearts
You sit in the corners of a world gone square
You can see them but to them you'r not there
Did you ever wonder why you'r stranger than - close?
I'm not the only one who's tired of the gun
There must be something more than marching off to war
Bleeding in the trenches 'neath a 90 lb pack
18 years old and never coming back
How can their dying ever make us feel - free?
I'm not the only one trying to get ahead
Working everyday harder than i'm paid
Going through changes - working my job
Thinking things be better if i get on top
With everybody yelling "hey, what about me/me?"

8. _ Milk Cow Blues (public Domain)
Well i tried everything
Just to get along with you
And i'm gonna tell you just
What i'm gonna do
Well i'm sick of all your cryin
When you should be leavin me alone
If you don't believe me
You pack me bags, i'm gone
Wontcha please
Don't that sun look good goin' down
You almost lost your love girl
When your ol man ain't around

Don't that sun look good goin' down
When your ol man ain't around
Won't you please
Don't that sun look good goin' down
And you best believe i love ya baby
When your old man ain't around
Chorus (repeat)
Round and round

9. _ Street Of Despair
There's a street that only ends alone
A place you go to find your soul
Where the paralyzing screem
And the echoes dark between
Wait in the shadows,
Your entering the streets of despair
It's a dead end - the final report
A break-down, the last resort
It's the faces of a few
That everybody knew
Waiting in the shadows -
Your entering the streets of despair
It's a street that only goes one way
Down the narrows where the neons say
Life is only but a dream
And you're playing out a scene
Waiting in the shadows -
Your entering the streets of despair

11. _ Claim To Fame
Don't you worry 'bout hurting me
I've been hurt before
Don't you worry 'bout using me
I always knew the score
Don't get excited
When i come and go
My claim to fame baby was a long, long time ago
Did you get what you wanted
Are you through with me
I can feel your nails cutting
I bleed so easily
The angels of mercy
Never rescued my soul
My claim to fame baby was a long. long time ago
I can't stop the burning in my soul
So don't get excited
'cause it's only me
The same guy you've been laughing at
Continuously
But i ain't no threat now
We all come and go
My claim to fame baby was a long, long time ago
I can't stop the burning in my soul

12. _ Kicked Out- Kicked In
When i was 16 i was kicked out of school
They couldn't dig my anti-social attitude
When i was 20 looking for a job
They told me "kid, you got hair too long"
And things ain't changed a lot since way back when
I'm still a loner without many friends
Kicked out - kicked in, i can't open the door
When i got older and i learned the truth
Some things don't matter if they ain't no use
If you can't get there without playing games
Or pointing fingers at who's to blame
I'm only human but time will tell
Who's sold out and who is for sale
Kicked out - kicked in, i can't open the door
Now muddy water's running through my brain
That deep depression's coming on again
It's no secret why i'm so damn down
It's how you end up in the underground
I can't remember how i fell out of sight
It's like i'm on the other sight of the light
Kicked out - kicked in, i can't open the door

13. _ Unknown Passage
Asked, "where are you going?"
"somewhere far away. "
She was standing at the window
I won't forget her face
With my suitcase and my old car
I'm driving somewhere blind
Unknown passage
Cuttin' like a knife through the night
Cuttin' like a knife through my eyes

14. _ I'm Out Nine
Runaway horses under my hood
Can't catch me when i fly
Blue sky over me, six feet under me
Touch me when you cry
I caught sight of you, i've got altitude
In my clouded eyes
Isn't that mainstream? finding you empty
Socially i'm out nine
Innocent highway, stranger than my way
Turn me like a page
Taken a wrong turn, deafly won't be heard
Damaged but i'm ok
Checking the chamber, nervous i came here
Looking through colored blinds
Careful don't miss me, going out easy
Socially i'm out nine

15. _ Walking On My Grave
I can't stay knowing what's going down
I can't stay, darkness on the edge of town
Streetwise kids in an act of defiance
Out to defeat what's already behind us
Rattle and shake their political cans
Giving directions without any plans
There's a new kid on the block
And he's taking my place
Walking on my grave
I can't stay staring down a .44
I can't stay dying on the killing floor
A man in blue and he's drawing a gun
A child in the shadows too scared to run
Crack on the mirror of a teenage dream
Like a lost generation on l.s.d.
There's a new kid on the block
And he's taking my place
Walking on my grave
I can't stay knowing what's going down
I can't stay, darkness on the edge of town
The brain's still twitching but the eyes are closed
My best friends dying from an overdose
A red light flares unacounted for
It's happening now and it's happened before
There's a new kid on the block
And he's taken my place
Walking on my grave
