The Homefront - Sacrifice

1) Free Ride
And I know that I'll get by just fine with what I have.
You keep pushing closer, coming up on your own end.
See what you can't have , take what you can't get.
You've reached your limit, I will never know the end.

At the days' end, who's the better man?

Things will never be the same again.

Choose your fate.

2) People Like You
I put so much effort forth in this
But I'm not strong enough to make a fucking change.
All those words you said to me meant nothing
Because the world isn't strong enough to change me.
People like you always try so fucking hard to break me
But your words and actions fell too short for me too grasp.

You can't change me.

I live my life for me, and not anyone else.

Just face the fucking facts man.
I live my life for me, and not anyone else.

You can't change my mind.
You will be denied.

Your pressure only goes so far with me.
Now you've reached the end of the line.

3) Snakes Vs Man
We were on our way out,
But we found our way back in.
And even though it's hard,
It's better tahn it's ever been.
No matter how hard we've tried,
We'd always find the time.
To give up once again.
To give up once again.
Just waiting around. Letting go and letting down.
But bite your tongue, 'cause it ain't over yet.
I know, we've still got something left...
We're worth so much more.
We've wasted time. Now time has wasted us.

4) Word Of Honor
Why can't you see that I don't mean what I say,
And I say what I don't mean?
When will you know this is real,
And I only thing the best of you?

One thing you should know about me is that
Sometimes I don't think before I speak.
I've said the wrong thing many times to different people.
You should know that I don't always mean what I say.
This has gotten me into trouble in the past.
I wish that I could take all those words back.
You have no idea what this is doing to me.
Many sleepless nights are the effect.

So listen closely and you will hear
This song is more than words.
Open your ears, open your eyes.
There's room for change.
I will write until this ink runs out,
Hopefully you'll know
Listen to me, why can't you see?
It's already getting better.

I've learned to appreciate all the small things in my life.
They've done nothing but make me better.
I've come to realize that this life isn't perfect.
This is as close as it gets.

I won't quit.

I want your forgiveness for my mistakes in the past.
My word of honor is all I have to give to you.
I'm aware that my second changes are starting to add up.
These words coming from my mouth are long overdue.

This means so much to me.

5) Against The Tide
This is my last for the last time.
Chances wasted, days have passed.
Never coming, never coming back.

It's too hard to continue when you can't ignore the past.
And I swear you'll never change.
I swear that giving up and giving in...
Well, I never thought I'd see those fucking days.
Now I'm about to fucking call it quits.

This is the end.

For every fucking thing you said I believed you just a little less.
Fuck what you heard, you'll never know anything besides the lies.
And I'm swimming against the tide.
This is a war that I will never win.
I'm giving up on giving in.

This is the end.

I want to quit, but I can't seem to pull myself away from you.
You beg me to stay, but I just don't know about this anymore.
I want to quit, but I can't seem to pull myself away from this.
You beg me to stay, but I just don't know about this anymore.

This is my last for the last time.
For the last time.
For the last...

6) Time Will Tell
We lose our minds as time flies by,
Slowly starting to realize that one day,
We'll all fall down.
When it rains, it fucking pours.
And after all, it's not so bad.

Maybe things will get better over time.
But time is something that we all don't have.

One day, we'll fall.
::top::

7) Midnight Society
We turn the page
Welcoming with open arms
A new chapter to our lives.
So many sleepless nights spent talking underneath the stars,
Wondering what the next day would bring.
Spontaneous decisions are the best part of it all,
And I'd never whish to change a thing about the way we are.

Now that this story has begun,
I've decided to take a novel approach
On what may become of this.
The endless drives throughout the day and night.
Time and distance was never an option.
We took every opportunity for what it's worth
And turned it into something greater
For an inferior world to look up to.

We turn the page
Welcoming with open arms
A new chapter to our lives.

Day in, day out
we live a life that's worth reading about.

8) So Here's My Renaissance
So here's my renaissance.
Here's to new beginning.
I'm starting over on a clean slate.
I've had my moments when I wish that I could just sit back
And stop this charade forever.
I've been told so many times that I can't do anything right,
And I'm a worthless fucking kid.
So here I am, I'm standing on the edge of town.
Crossroads consume my thought.
Do I go back to where I came from? Back to all I know?
Or do I press onward towards newer, bigger, better things?

The fact that things may never change is a scary fucking thought.
Yeah, and I swear that this is not the last that you'll hear from me.
Take these words to heart,
Cause they're the last you'll me sing.
I'm finished. I'm done. I'm never coming back.
::top::

9) A Day In The Life
Here in this head lies the thoughts of a million words.
Getting them all out for you to understand is by far the hardest feat I've ever done.
Please understand my intentions here are true.
One day you'll find the right path, and I'll be here long after that day comes.
All those things they said can't stop us now.
No matter what they say or what they do, this is all I need.

Now I've been thinking about this for quite sometime,
And I need you to know you've made me who I am today.
You have shown me there's more to life than living.
And I go through every day with you in mind.
My actions based on your decisions.
Aiming to please with all I do, and I swear I'll never hurt you.
And until that day comes I plan on putting all these efforts forth to help this cause.
You're all that I have left to believe in,
So don't let go... please don't let go.
Just try a little harder to show me that I'm doing something right.
So here it is...
Welcome to your life.

We've come too far for them to tell us how to live our lives.
These words are all that I have left to help you find your way.

10) Escape (Fuck This Town)
As I'm walking through the streets of this town,
It's so easy to see that nothing's ever gonna change.
I've grown weary of the familiar face and country stores,
Broken windows, boarded doors.

I don't wanna fall apart.
I just wanna forget this place, where you can't see your fucking self.

We're all decaying,
So alone, so helpless.
Never to be let free.
This is false security.

I want to wake up in a place where no one will now my name.
I want the sweet sweet scent of success running through my skin and bones.

Each time we come up short we're thinking.
Will we find our way out?

We're all decaying,
So alone, so helpless.
Never to be let free.
This is false security.

Fuck this town.
I want out.
