Three Years

as the old drift away
and the young seem to stay
we hold on to the pain
swelling unneeded hate

revolution, institution
isn't life all just a game?
evolution, man's solution
humans never really change

watch the years pass us by
as the good ideas die
leaders scream bombs away
while the children all play

revolution, institution
isn't life all just a game?
evolution, man's solution
humans never really change

you tell us what we know
who to see, where to go
won't take this anymore 
fuck you and all your wars

I've got my life to live
not for your wretched sins
but a life all my own 
not to fix all you've done

as the good drift away
and the evil remain
we evolve to the same
as we were yesterday 

revolution, institution
isn't life all just a game?
evolution, man's solution
humans never really change

Evolution of Man

©2013 Written by Stephen Bagan & CJ Doyen

Sit real tight you've got nowhere to go
Relax sit back its time to start the show
All the times you've ever had a dream
You just fall down back to reality
Crumbling walls engulf you in a cage
Captive in the darkness of your rage
Memories of all the tragic days
Cities falling as the music plays

As we watch our lives go by
The elders slip away and die
Anger just leads us to hate
You could never appreciate
The life that runs around you
And all the things that they can do
Your world is filled with angst and grief
Eyes closed you cannot see
You dwell on all your horrid past
Until you feel you just won't last
You're closing all your fucking windows 
and who knows where you will go

You're not the only one
Who's life was shattered all gone
Waiting for your break
Just for someone else to take

Rise up, be counted
It's not over yet
Reach to your heart I'll heal you
I won't let you slip into death

Relax breathe still and calm you're wired nerves
Take it easy on approaching curves
Slip into sense of tranquility 
Embracing all you thought you'd never be
Then one day you'll start to realize
And just maybe you'll open your eyes
All the shit from all your blackened days
Forgotten memories as the music plays
