Numbers ( side a track 1 )
Numbered and filed, collected on lists, the blueprints already been drawn,
Blindly accepting, oblivious, ignoring what's come before...
Wait, now people, why can't you see
Now people, why won’t you see,
Open your eyes, then you will see,
What it is that they want you to be..
Knowing your place is the first thing you learn, TVs to keep you in line,
Pulling your strings as you happily smile, dismissing all warning signs
Your birthright defines the roles that you choose, ensures there's no crossing the line,
Incentives and gimmicks to keep you sedate, and stop you from using your mind.
Don't kid yourself that you're living your way, decisions have been made for you,
To fight you must see what life really is, so what are you going to do?

The Autistic Song

Autistics song (side a track 2)
Broken dreams, hands on ears.
forward and back, under attack,
scary places, unknown faces,
no looking back.
counting blocks, collecting rocks,
spinning wheels, it’s warm in here
cold out there, confusion reigns,
but nobody cares.
Meaningless words,
jumbled tongue,
little understanding,
the autistics song.
Welcome to my world
i’ve been there before.
Welcome to my world,
please shut the door?
Dis-ability you can't see,
my ability,
alphabetically,
nothing out of place,
nothing out of line,
set your clock
I’m bang on time.

Big band theory ( side a track 3)
You say you're better than us.
We know we're better than you.
At the start it went so well,
You were once where we are now,
You played and played,
You shared a stage but now.........
You think you're better than us
and we know were better than you.
Listen now we'll take a vow,
Listen now. We'll stay true;
Listen now, the stage was meant for you.
You say you’re better than us
And we know were better than you.
Take you back to the start,
Do you really have no heart?
We lost our gig cus you made it big
But now!

Con-Dem Nation

Condem-nation (side a track 4)
Thatcher’s son, reptile eyes,
people fell for your lies
economic emergency
political ideologies.
Liberal yellow,
that’s apt,
betray ideals in a pact,
Lilly livered, tories whores
no one trusts you anymore.
Oxford, Cambridge,
both are blue,
old school friends, how do you do,
secret handshakes,
knowing smiles,
millionaires stash their piles.
raped, looted,
stashed and burned,
took all you could, no return,
bankrupt banks laugh with glee,
profit, profit, more for me.
Con-Dem nation,
Con-Dem nation,
Con-Dem nation
Generation !!

Futility of the human condition ( side a track 5)
We fight, kill, maim, steal
love, hate, destroy, create
No-one knows what we’re doing it for
Sleep, dream, laugh, scream
strong, weak, hide, seek
Never gonna find what we’re looking for
Complicate our lives so needlessly
Cuz people just don’t want to see
Be who you want to be
really, there’s no more mysteries
complicate our lives so needlessly
Cuz people just don’t want to see
In the end we’re all going to die !

Meathook ( side a track 6)
Do you remember?
Playing with a gun
When you were children
Killing was such fun
And now you’re older
The killing is for real
Cuz you’re a soldier
How do you feel??
You’re not free
It’s obvious to me
From the day you were born
You were meant to be a pawn
You’re on a meathook
A tour of duty
Risking life and limb
But you were bought up
To think killing is a sin
Can you live with?
The things you’re told to do
An do you wonder
Who's killing you?
One Law, No war

Welcome to the U.K.(side a track 7)
Smash your head against a wall , you’re a burden on the state , we can’t keep you all
Welcome to the U.K.
You’ll find you’ll do best if your quicker than the rest
Tax breaks serve the wealthy interest
Welcome to the U.K.
set yourself ablaze too much pressure from debt
Millions of people feeling the threat
Welcome to the U.K.
God forbid if you come into this country thinking that your gonna find work
Well use you as a scapegoat make sure your villified cos we like to blame others when we’re hurt
It’s who you know what counts and cash in large amounts if you wanna make your way round here
We’re turning on each other while they watch their plans unfold but do we wanna do as we’re told

Sign of the times (side b track 1)
From birth to death you go it alone
Until you draw your last breath go it alone
Friends they come and go and still your alone
It seems the more you know the more your alone
Sign of the times when nothing feels fine
Crossing a line where nothing feels fine
A cog in the machine always alone
Chasing the American dream always alone
Stand for what is right and you’ll be alone
Fight or flight always alone
Sign of the times where nothing is fine , crossing a line where nothing is fine

New generation ( side b track 2 )
We are the New Generation
Fighting, to save the fucked up nation
We are the New Generation now
Building up, one by one
we won’t stop until we’re done
We’re In your minds, in your beds
lying here with fucked up heads

No more puppets on a string
thinking of everything
The consequences that we must pay
For every action in every day
We are the new generation,
fighting to save the fucked up nation,
We are the next generation now...
No one telling us what to do, we just say, fuck you!
No one telling us what to do, we just say, fuck you!
New generation, true generation, regeneration we're here
new generation, true generation, regeneration, were here
new generation, true generation, regeneration. We're here
new generation, true generation, regeneration... Fuck you!

Reality ( side b track 3)
From the top of the Ivory Tower
I survey the land below
Know not where I’m going
know not what I know
I’ve been places I shouldn’t have been
And I’ve seen things that I shouldn’t have seen
And I’ve found reality
is not the place I want to be, oh no
From across the land
I despair the pain
No-ones in control
I’ve found myself again
From my ground in Hell
I’ve lived my normal life
as my Heart begins to burn
No longer feel the knife
I’ve been places I shouldn’t have been
And I’ve seen things that I shouldn’t have seen
And I’ve found reality
is not the place I want to be, oh no
From across the land
I despair the pain
No-ones in control
I’ve found myself again
From my ground in Hell
I’ve lived my normal life
as my Heart begins to mend
No longer feel the knife
I am I and I am me
I go where I want
And see what I see

Relationshit (side b track 4)
On your own, for far too long, never relying on anyone,
but sometimes, it helps to say...somebody catch me when I fall
Built a wall, to protect myself, ensuring no one gets to close,
but now and then, from time to time..It’s good to let somebody in.
Let somebody in,
You don't have to do it,
Let somebody help,
Sometimes it's lonely on your own.
Been let Down, been betrayed, life's left you so cold and numb,
but sometimes, it helps to say...somebody catch me when I fall
No more trust, you can't get hurt, that's become philosophy,
but now and then, from time to time, it’s good to let somebody in.
Let somebody in,
You don't have to do it all alone,
Let somebody help,
Sometimes it's lonely on your own.
so negative, so Down and out, things you just won't talk about,
but sometimes, it helps to say, somebody catch me when I fall
There's nothing wrong, with being strong and it’s hard to rely on anyone,
but now and then, from time to time.. It’s good to let somebody in

Stronger ( side b track 5)
STRONGER THAN YOU GIVE ME CREDIT FOR
STRONGER I COPED WITH SO MUCH MORE
STRONGER, I NEVER LOCK MY DOOR
STRONGER THAN ANY WORDS COULD SAY
I GROW STRONGER DAY BY DAY!
STRONG ENOUGH TO SLEEP AT NIGHT
STRONG ENOUGH TO WIN MY FIGHT
STRONGER WITHOUT YOU BY MY SIDE
STRONGER
WEAKER
WEAKER THAN I THOUGHT
WEAKER, IN THE PAST YOU WALKED
I WILL LEAD THE WAY
I GROW STRONGER DAY BY DAY
FEAR THE DAY THAT I RETURN
FEAR THE STRENGTH INSIDE ME BURN
ONE DAY THE PAST WILL REST
AND WE WILL PUT YOU TO THE TEST
STRONGER
YOU RAN FOR SO LONG,
YOU’RE WEAKNESS HELPING ME GROW STRONG
WE WILL FIGHT, YOU WILL FLEE
A DEEPER, DARKER SIDE OF ME.
FEAR THE DAY THAT I ARRIVE
THE STRENGTH INSIDE ME WELL ALIVE
I HAD TIME TO SIT AND WAIT
SIT, RECOVER, CONTEMPLATE.
STRONGER
I GROW STRONGER DAY BY DAY
A STRENGTH INSIDE NOONE COULD SLAY
A DEEPER DARKER SIDE OF ME,
A TOUGHER SIDE HAS BROKEN FREE
A MORE INTUITIVE THOUGHT
A MORE EMOTIONAL WAY YOU BROUGHT
A CONTEMPLATIVE WAY FOR ME
MY MIND NOW HAS BROKEN FREE

Virus ( side b track 6)
Where you gonna go when there's no one left to help,
Who you gonna call when everyone is fighting for themselves,
What you gonna do when You need some company,
What you gonna be when there's nothing left to see...
alone ...your gonna be alone...
What You gonna eat when You can't afford the food,
Where you gonna sleep when there's no more room for you,
Where you gonna live when there's no money for rent,
Who you gonna trust when there's so much false intent,
no one...you can't trust no one...
How you gonna feel when your friends leave you behind,
How can you cope when the roles aren't clearly defined,
Who's gonna speak when they've taken everything away,
Sooner or later there'll be nothing left to say..
fucked...we'll all be fucked....

Bottom of a bottle ( cd track only )
Bottom of a bottle the place I lie,
Bottom of a bottle getting high,
Bottom of a bottle the place to be,
Bottom of a bottle that set me free,
Bottom of a bottle lying on the floor,
Bottom of a bottle now im not sure,
Bottom of a bottle the place to be,
Bottom of a bottle, set me free.
Chorus
Been here before so many times,
Been here before so ill sing these lines,
Been here before but I forgot my past,
Bottom of a bottle will it be my last,
Bottom of a bottle looking at the sky,
Bottom of a bottle no place to die,
Bottom of a bottle im lying in my Piss,
Bottom of a bottle slitting my own wrist.
Bottom of a bottle thats now in the bin,
Bottom of a bottle I will win,
Bottom of a bottle that I showed the door,
Bottom of a bottle i've won my war.

Stuck in a rut ( cd track only )
All alone in shattered broken dreams
No-one to turn too
No where to run
No place called Home
I'm all alone
Stuck in a rut, nowhere to stay,
have to last another day.
tortured mind, messed up soul,
bruised body, gaping hole.
In your head, know the way,
speak the truth, no longer stay.
don’t think you can get out,
worried, scared, you scream and shout.
Stuck in a rut, you can't get out,
bloody lip, downward pout.
you’re sinking slowly, fading fast,
how much longer will this last.
In your mind, you caused it all,
another trip, an awkward fall.
You spoke your mind, at the end of the day,
another thump and there you stay.

Pigs ( cd track only )
We are going to beat you,
we're going to let you die,
not there when you want us,
but there when you’re high
We are the pigs,
the boys in blue,
gonna fucking beat you,
nothing you can do.
We are the pigs,
how do you do,
don't really care,
going to beat you.
We are going to beat you,
we're going to let you die,
not there when you want us,
but there when you’re high
Sit there waiting,
point the gun at you,
do you for speeding,
but when the blood is drew?
We are the pigs,
we steal and lie,
double sided entities,
we're going to let you die.

Please please help me , I want to be set free
I want to live my life again free from misery

Don’t want you to see me suffer as a shell
Remember all my dignity that’s not who I am
