You don't like seeing us on the town You don't like seeing us hanging around You don't understand anything we do You don't understand why we 're not like you why you trying to put us down why you throwing your weight around We are the blood, We are the skins We are the kids snd we'll never give in We are the blood, We are the voice We are the streets and we're the boot boys out of fear you cast us out you dont even know what we're all about but now its time to face the truth when your face to face with the angry youths why you trying to put us down why you throwing your weight around We are the blood, We are the skins We are the kids snd we'll never give in we are the blood, We are the voice we are the streets and we're the boot boys and now the smoke has cleared and I see the fear in your eyes we are sick and tired of all of your bullshit lies so they say our scene is dead well look at us now we're far from it why you trying to put us down why you throwing your weight around we are the blood, We are the skins we are the kids and we'll never give in we are the blood, We are the voice we are the streets and we're the boot boys

Another shadow on the street I'm lying at deaths door where I walk I'm leaving footprints where thousands have walked before I am just a number in this society I've finally accepted my own mortality but nothing lasts forever everything must end we gotta stick together cause we've always got our friends I stare into the mirror and I see a dying face I realize that in my life I've got no fucking place Im just another kid, another shadow on the street I'm trying to live my life, but my life has got me beat but nothing lasts forever everything must end we gotta stick together cause we've always got our friends

Many bloody wars and settled scores and broken hearts ago hung over, lost can't give a toss we suffered through the blows time's come and gone and we're the ones to turn and run they'll say how many times has the door been slammed on a lonely cast away? what' is left of all the kids who seemed to have something to say they're picking up the pieces of their broken yesterdays they've said goodbye, found better lives but I feel left behind I'm on the outside looking in and there's nothing left inside And all the lonely castaways get lonelier it seems burned up washed out without a doubt and tied to broken dreams Many bloody wars and settled scores and broken hearts ago hung over, lost can't give a toss we suffered through the blows time's come and gone and were the ones to turn and run they'll say how many times has the door been slammed on a lonely cast away?

This one's for the punks, this one's for the skins this one's for the drunks that got their heads kicked in this one's for kids living out on the street and this one's for us cause we can't be beat and This one's for you! never hang up your boots! this one's for you! never hang up your boot! This one's for the kids out back downing pints this one's for the kids who're out starting fights this one's for the kids who were destined to fall this one's for the kids who show no shame this one's for the kids who won't play their game this one's for the kids who're rising high this one's for the kids who keep the spirit alive this one is for us cause we can't be beat this one is for us all cause we can't be beat

Hey Baby you've got a lot to learn I've been down and now it's your turn Never guess I'd see through you Took a chance at the things you do You make me sick Hey baby you got a lot to say Don't look true to me that way You always thought you were something new Never wanted my point of view You make me sick You think your smile is oh so cool Go find yourself another fool I cramped your style so you say Looking at yourself 24 hours a day You make me sick Hey baby don't turn me on I ain't gonna miss you now that you're gone I love the things you do I can not get through to you You make me sick

Dirt on your face and boots on your feet sneak out at night to drink on the street they say that you're so young but your mind is made up and your passing all the others the ones that gave up Only 16 but your nobody's fool you get beat up by the jocks on your way home from school but you've got something that they can't understand you got the fucking world in the palm of your hand Too big for boots is what they say but you'll knock down anyone in the way they don't understand this is the life you choose and right now you feel like you can never lose It's more than a tourist photo in Harvard square it's more than a leather and purple hair this is more than jumping the fashion cart because your outside shows the pride in your heart You may look different but it's by choice no lies or accusations will silence your voice brought into this world and forged in adolescent pain something that others just can't explain

There was a time when I thought you could be trusted brothers we said, and I thought it was true but now things are different and I realize how stupid I was to have trusted you the things people say and the clothes that they wear are not always a reflection of whats inside it took me some time but now I see the world of insecurity in which you hide now I see the fear behind your eyes now I see the truth behind your lies behind your lies (2) There was a time when I thought you could be trusted brothers we said, and I thought it was true but now things are different and I realize how stupid I was to have trusted you so I see you now and it's like we've never met a handshake and a smile and small talk shit can't say I care cause it never meant a thing it just took me some time to come to grips now I see the fear behind your eyes now I see the truth behind your lie behind your lies now I see the fear behind your eyes now I see the truth behind your lie behind your lies behind your fucking lies!

Why drink a beer if the bottle's got a bottom? Pretty soon everyone will leave a nice exterior, the insides rotten I can't trust what I once believed now I'm fucked, twitching crucified nothings changed, we all feel the same this empty feelings to which I'm tied I saw my own funeral and nobody came Nobody laughs anymore, Nothings changed, we've seen it before nobody smiles anymore, we try and try but we're still bored You told me we could make it through this trick yourselves into plans of hope the sea of time in which we wade jealous of purity I see in their eyes the same clear vision torn from my heart like a dying man wiping off the flies I feel it, I need it but there's no hope

No Regrets 02:02
I am the taker, the giver of none you see me coming and you better run cause I don't give a fuck about your pain madness is the only thing that keeps me sane you are my roadblock, the one in my way think you're gonna stop me but you're gonna pay coming at you like an eighteen wheel truck the I'll spit on you cause I don't give a fuck you think I'm hateful- well that's tough shit think I'm crazy well you better deal with it I have no conscience, I have no heart coming for you gonna rip you apart madness is what keeps me sane

All things lost, nothing gained everything passing day intensifies my pain I look towards tomorrow yet cling to yesterday hoping sometime I'll find my way Each day a reminder of my mistakes each day a reminder of what it takes nothing to look forward to from what I can see the old days ended too soon for me
11.
You know you're at the end when your mind's a prison cell the walls are closing in and your life's a living hell nowhere left to turn to and no one else to blame so you blame yourself you might as well cause the jokes on you again Alright alright it's not alright I'm gonna feel the pain tonight Give me a push give me a shove I'll never fuckin' learn made all the wrong decisions now there's nowhere else to turn so don't call me your brother and don't call me your friend cause I've been down that road before and I know where it ends Alright alright it's not alright I'm gonna feel the pain tonight out of mind and out of sight I'm at the end of my rope tonight

Another weekend on the town another Saturday night another riot, another fight beer by the riverside we always get chased by the cops they really got it in for us they wanna see us all behind bars cause we're always making a fuss Saturdays kids, nothing else to do Saturdays kids, teenage wasted youth Another gang out on the streets you can't say we haven't tried all the cops and all the suits wanna push us down to the side our generation is gonna fucking stay our generation is gonna have it's say

Reckless 02:58
You talk to us about the way it was but you don't see we don't care about the way it used to be can't live on those nostalgic lies we're sick and tired of living up to the old ways the scene is ours now, the kids are here to stay and we will never go away The first to arrive and the last to leave another generation wears it's anger on it's sleeve and if your not careful it'll come right down to you Cause the tables have turned and the hatred burns and after all these years we've finally learned we gotta take a stand so what are you gonna do? Another casualty, don't look at me just a reckless useless young wannabe singled out and written off like it was never meant to be you're a nameless faceless bygone to be

You were only 13 when you had your first fuck cause at the age of 12 you were a certified drunk sneaking home through the window so late at night don't want your parents to see that you had another fight your new friends are all older and you feel so cool smoking butts in the back lot and skipping school but you can't see they started out just like you grew up too fast, now in the welfare queue And you're wishing, and wanting to be so much older and your life and your dreams are getting so much colder and you don't know what you have, and now the song is sung you've forgotten what it's like to be young The days roll by and the nights are a blur getting fucked up all the time but always quite sure that things will work out and it'll be just fine but you can't see you're just a fucking lie your childhood friends can't look you in the face cause you ditched them long ago and they feel betrayed besides most of them have moved, got lives of their own and you're still unemployed and living at home And you're wishing and wanting to take it all back cause your life and your dreams are rotted and cracked you're sick and you're tired of the things you've done and seen cause you're an old man at the age of eighteen

Insight 03:25
Guess your dreams always end. They don't rise up just descend, But I don't care anymore, I've lost the will to want more, I'm not afraid not at all, I watch them all as they fall, But I remember when we were young. Those with habits of waste, Their sense of style and good taste, Of making sure you were right, Hey don't you know you were right? I'm not afraid anymore, I keep my eyes on the door, But I remember... Tears of sadness for you, More upheaval for you, Reflects a moment in time, A special moment in time, Yeah we wasted our time, We didn't really have time, But we remember when we were young. And all God's angels beware, And all you judges beware, Sons of chance, take good care, For all the people not there, I'm not afraid anymore, I'm not afraid anymore, I'm not afraid anymore, Oh, I'm not afraid anymore.
