A demo track recorded for @FourtitudeTheBand

I HAVE FUN BY MYSELF

This is a song about violence and Peter Kassig recorded as a home demo for the band Fourtitude.

Lyrics:

Punch Me In The Face

Angry infidels captured the bass player
I knew him as a running man among slower sloths
I learned more about him from the aggregate news
Than from my life at a sanitized school

The war is never over
Memories will never die the people you loved
The people you cared for are still alive
The ones you forgot
But knew they were right
The drama is climaxing
There is no resolution forthcoming

The president bends
He fires his chief advisor
Out of the river reverie
My resin soaked memory
I can't take you away
There's a knife on the bed

Punch
Punch me in the face
Punch
Punch me in the face

I can't control my breath
Because my last name
Might save me from this death
Is anyone listening?
Everything that I once knew
Is taken from lies
I always knew were true
What can I do?
I can't erase the days I lived
The dream continues to be ad-libbed
While the hostage smiles for the camera
The executioner awaits samsara
So ask for salvation with your head bowed
And wrap up your mind in a shroud
You only hide in the structure of silence
As they videotape violence


Punch
Punch me in the face
Punch
Punch me in the face

There's a solemn understanding
That gentleman recognize blindly
Life is a parade
You can't hide your nakedness
I never asked for anything more
Than to read the message I wrote

Punch 
Please punch me in the face

<Dog chewing on the microphone>

Punch Me In The Face

This is a home demo recorded for Fourtitude, the band, about CM Punk and Stephanie McMahon and Triple H's disavowal of him as a "quitter" on public television after he "Walked out" on the world of wrestling.

lyrics:


"Quitter"

Blading and broken tables
Its shameless fairy tales
The crowd cheers
It sounds like tears
When the pain pays off

I tried it
I grabbed the brass ring
Don't buy this
Gold they're selling
It's priceless
Like everything I've learned
Facing fragile freaks

Tell your friends
There's gonna be a show
And it all depends
If you are buying in
It doesn't matter when
The place is packed and buzzing
Anything goes in the circus

I want you to know
That I'm a quitter

It's not easy to admit
I'm gonna lose it
I was ready to split
Before the party started

Create a cult
And worship at the altar
I see empty space
Behind your face

Please don't ask
Just tell me what to say


Blading and broken tables
Its shameless fairy tales
The crowd cheers
It sounds like tears
When the pain pays off

The hardest thing you'll ever do
Is staring a hole right through you

Tell your friends
There's gonna be a show
And it all depends
If you are buying in
It doesn't matter when
The place is packed and buzzing
Anything goes in the circus

The Circus

This is a song about my experiences in high school with Chris Bauer and his subsequent philosophical forays into yoga and truth by the way of meditation and solitude.  I still remember the "Golden Days" where we wrote music with reckless abandon.

LYRICS:

The Golden Days

I once knew
I looked up to you
Eye to eye, we wrote rallying cries
Now you've become mute
The faceless jackyl smile
The snick of every wick of every light
Silenced your life
No feeling inside
Be your own prisoner
Like all of us
Take a dogmatic plunge
No matter how shiny and gold
Your shackles may be
You're still stuck in shackles, you see?

Finally you've found what you believe
All the world is up your sleeve

Don't be so naive
Don't be so naive
Don't be so naive

Finally you've found your gold sea
Make a choice to break your voice
Then you're free
Blissful harmony
Don't be so naive

A cold front hovers
Above my day
I see glimmers
But nothing gold can stay

Once I was young
I never held my tongue
I toppled peaks of all kinds
I enjoyed the climb

Finally you've found what you believe
Make a choice to break your voice
Then you're free
Blissful harmony
Don't be so naive
