1. Gunpoint
Revolution of youth
Rebellious they stand
Thriving on disobedience
No new attitude
No new means or way
To satisfy, hunger they crave
Use youth as a weapon
That you can’t control
It’s a world for the young
Out with the old
Find yourself powerless
In their hands
Authority stands no chance
With a gun to its head
Gun to it’s head
In battle they clash
A war never won
For these gaping generations
Discipline, it clouds all their little dreams
Your support’s all they really need
Use youth as a weapon
That you can’t control
It’s a world for the young
Out with the old
Find yourself powerless
In their hands
Authority stands no chance
With a gun to its head
Gun to it’s head
How does it feel
Staring down the barrel
Welcome to madness
Hope I’ve lead you there
Revolution of youth
Rebellious they stand
Thriving on disobedience
No new attitude
No new means or way
To satisfy, hunger they crave
Use youth as a weapon
That you can’t control
It’s a world for the you
Out with the old
Gunpoint
Gunpoint
Gunpoint
Gunpoint
Taken at gunpoint
2. World Won't Miss You
I see a nine your old
Selling crack in this hole
A violent world, no self respect
No moral values left
Livelihood now is theft
Watch it crush you
Why don’t we call it suicide
Keep all that shit away from me
Can’t you see I’m no fool
Tempt your fate, fuck with me
The world won’t miss you
Struggle to meet supply
People demand their high
Sedating masses, no questions asked
Our sons and daughters raised
Into this blinding maze
Resisting pressure from their peers
Face to face, don’t turn away
I need to know what motivates
Genocide, the poison crutch
That consumes your life with lust
Keep all that shit away from me
Can’t you see I’m no fool
Tempt your fate, fuck with me
The world won’t miss you
Hey man, how can you face each new day
What gives you the right
To take another’s life
And expect yours to be saved
Face to face, don’t turn away
I need to know what motivates
Genocide, the poison crutch
That consumes your life with lust
Keep all that shit away from me
Can’t you see I’m no fool
Tempt your fate, fuck with me
The world won’t miss you
Keep all that shit away from me
Can’t you see I’m no fool
Tempt your fate, fuck with me
The world won’t miss you
3. Scattered Wits
A row a scars that cut me
Way too deep
I’m numb to life anymore
So just let me be
Can’t seem to scratch and pick
On life as earth as known
Can’t come back
It’s too late now
Seems to feeel like candles in the wind
They’re going still strong
No one will win
It’s way too late to feel bad
For yourself
The damage has been done and you’re
Going down
Can’t seem to scratch and pick
On life as earth as known
Can’t come back
It’s too late now
So many times to fall out
So many times
This world has left us out
Out in the cold
Cold sun is finally going down
Your life is worthless now
And you’re going drown
Your hate and spite that drives you insane
Put the gun to your head and you’ve lost all that pain
Took the fire
Burning you higher
You threw it away
You could feel it
Taking you down
Now your life’s blown away
So many times to fall out
So many times
This world has left us out
Out in the cold
Cold sun is finally going down
Your life is worthless now
And you’re gooing drown
Your hate and spite that drives you insane
Put the gun to your head and you’ve lost all that pain
Threw it away
Dropped the fire
Taking you higher
Threw it away
Threw it away
Threw it away
