Tidal Waves 02:55
Silent sound don't mean much to me Silent sound brings out the worst in me I wonder should I lock my door And hide away in my hideaway? Violence found don't mean much to me Violence found beings out the worst in me I wonder should I lock my door And hide away in my hideaway? Hideaways mean a lot to me Tidalwaves bring out the best in me I wonder should I lock my door And hide away in my hideaways?

I Was Born 05:03
I was born in the night Sacrificed to the roving blight I'd welcome death if she'd only suck my breath My only pedigree Is this faceless madding sea Bodies surround me but not one can see me Isolation here for no one and not me My only lifelong quest is to have a painless death I only want to see Where do you run to when you ain't got no home Safely chewed off society's bone A young priest took me in She was bathed in earthly sin I have a pistol but I can't I can't read She gave me love unconditionally She kicked me in the teeth Turned my gun on me I only want to see Why she loves me Read more at http://societyfringepodcast.libsyn.com/page/3/size/25#GWxOItX3SFSbwVxm.99

You're a memory Far as I can see Priestly evil deeds to me Free as lusting chance Bathed in decadance Got it in my pants My pants I'm leaving here today Leaving anyway Gonna live today Today Run the fuck away Got an itch for a more evil dare I'm gone like a song in the air I'm gone like a song in the air I spent my young life running away The more I ran the more I stayed Motion is home to the restless And mad I'm gonna muse my dream Lead me where it leads Lead the voiceless away Leave me the fuck alone Leave me just the motherfuck alone Leave me the fuck alone Alone Pleased to be remembering me well Read more at http://societyfringepodcast.libsyn.com/page/3/size/25#KFw5Ab4fbUGY4Bs2.99

Homeless 05:20
I will work for food Often misconstrued Please don't think me rude Baseless, strained or crude Inside out they come I'm the chosen one Sleep with Jesus' son Be the lonely one I will do anything I'm the homeless one Terrorized for fun I'm the chosen one Lest we come undone I will do anything Let me have some food Please give me some food Can I have some food May I have some food Read more at http://societyfringepodcast.libsyn.com/page/3/size/25#xREY0MBoWWb9XSJy.99

Break your back break your face Fall asleep miss the race Scared to be anything Scaredy scared of everything Go People suck people lie Just complain all the time Whine all day fall in line Just fit in it's lemming time So fuck the herd Fuck 'em Cattle sheep chew your cud Stupid and dumb as mud You don't care if it's true Or a lie so fuck you And fuck the herd Fuck 'em Read more at http://societyfringepodcast.libsyn.com/page/3/size/25#2GDPZLmpa8atPT2a.99

They tell you to walk before you run But me I want to fly Shake off that misanthropy And try and touch the sky A sky that's cold as winter icicles in May A rage that never really goes away Spend all your spare time looking back 'Cause memories never fade Everything I've seen just seems To be a grand charade Of faceless voices claiming to be the status quo But never let them show you where to go They tell you to think before you leap Lives they just fall down All these wasted people They just burrow in the ground That's hard as screaming arctic glaciers late in June Just another word for a cocoon And so I sit back and think a while Wondering what it's for This grand scheme that builds some dreams And thrashes others on the floor That's crowded by a billion entities and some Who never even heard the starting gun Read more at http://societyfringepodcast.libsyn.com/page/3/size/25#qLG2LQftL7Zsv6HQ.99

Silent sound means the world to me Falling down all around me I wonder should I smash that door And fly away from my hideaways Violent sound seems to make me be Triumph around gave the rest to me I wonder should I smash that door And fly away from my hideaways Hideaways don't mean shit to me Tidalwaves bring out the best in me I wonder should I smash that door And fly away from my hideaways In the night she stays Hideaways Read more at http://societyfringepodcast.libsyn.com/page/3/size/25#QFzOZGrFW5loOW3Z.99
