Альбом Unwritten Law

I remember the way when we used to play,
All our troubles seemed so far away,
That was when I lived from day to day,

Do you remember the times,
When all on our minds,
Was having fun,
And catching a buzz,
That was life for you and for me,

Oh-oh-oh I want it back,
Oh-oh-oh I want it back, now,
I've got my life to live,

Looking back now at all of my friends,
And asking myself why these times had to end,
Well, I'm older now than I was then,
And it makes no sense to try and deny it,
There's no use to try and defy it,
That's the way life goes for you and for me

Oh-oh-oh I want it back,
Oh-oh-oh I want it back, now,
I've got my life to live,

Hey

Oh-oh-oh I want it back,
Oh-oh-oh I want it back, now,
I've got my life to live,

Sometimes it seems you just don't understand,
The way I think and who I am,
When I'm told what I'm supposed to be,
You think you know what's best for me

I want to see you standing next to me,
Seems you've got nothing much to say,
And when you're dying lying next to me,
I'll turn my head and walk away,

Sometimes it seems I might be losing touch,
Or maybe I just try too much,
Now I get told I'm crazy,
Nothing you can say will faze me now,

I want to see you standing next to me,
Seems you've got nothing much to say,
And when you're dying lying next to me,
I'll turn my head and walk away,

I walk alone,
My thoughts aren't always carved in stone,
My life revolves according to me,
And what you say don't mean a fucking thing to me,
You'll see I'll make it further on my own,

I want to see you standing next to me,
Seems you've got nothing much to say,
And when you're dying lying next to me,
I'll turn my head and walk away,

I want to see you standing next to me,
Seems you've got nothing much to say,
And when you're dying lying next to me,

Dear father thank you for this life,
Hey mother why aren't you his wife,

You expect respect from me,
Where's your responsibility,
I'm your responsibility,
You're my responsibility, right now,
And I'm shouting,

Turn around and you have found,
The shit now left by you,
What it takes and you mistakes,
Point only at you two,
What the fuck has happened,
To this thing called family life,
Why weren't we the Grizzwalds,
And why was I denied,
When I was alone and down,
You weren't there for me,
This simple life lesson is all,
That's taught the modern family,

A united front is what,
We claim for respectability,
I'll walk around and I will shout,
Hey what about me,

Oh-oh-oh, hey what about me,
Oh-oh-oh, hey what about me,
Oh-oh-oh, hey what about me,
Go,
Oh-oh-oh, hey what about me,
Oh-oh-oh, hey what about me,
Oh-oh-oh, hey what about me,
Now,

Dear father you can leave me be,
And hey mom you ain't no mom to me,

You expect respect from me,
Where's your responsibility,
I'm your responsibility,
You're my responsibility, right now,

She was the cutest girl I'd seen,
With eyes so deep and colored green,
It only took a look you see,
When Suzanne had put a spell on me,
It made me feel so high in ecstasy,
Here I go, now you just got to know,
The way I feel Suzanne,
I knew I couldn't try to move too fast,
I know this time I have to make it last,
The way she made me feel had got,
A hold of me was so unreal,
The way she made me feel would never pass,
You make the sun shine in the day,
Why do you make me feel this way,
You make me wanna fly away,
Far away,
Here I go, now you just got to know,
The way I feel Suzanne,
Here I go, now you just got to know,
The way I feel Suzanne,

Caught in this endless trap, you neglect to see
All of the aspiration built up inside of me
I want to express myself and say what's on my mind
You're that perfect person and that's so hard to find

Something's burning inside of me, obsession, depression
Why won't she fall for me, obsession, depression
All I wanted was to be with you
I can't believe it's true

Obsession,
Obsession, depression
Obsession, depression
Killing my mind

You won't give me a chance you just say "leave it be"
I want to get in your pants is all you think and see
You've got a new guy now, what am I supposed to do
I guess I'm fucked, cuz I've been played you you

Something's burning inside of me, obsession, depression,
Why won't she fall for me, obsession, depression,
All I wanted was to be with you

Deafness is a blindness deny through that burn inside
Will life go on any longer a blank page in the book of life
Conceive this time behind me because the future is gone
Meet face to face to face with a bad dream the thought remains
It can't go on

Will you be standing there
Call my name at the ending light
I'll set my soul beside you
God forgive this ending life

Dave where are you going
This burn in my heart is growing
Down on myself, I don't want to be
Set my soul apart constrict the feelings
I want to break free

Deafness is a blindness deny through that burn inside
Will life go on any longer a blank page in the book of life
Conceive this time behind me because the future is gone
Meet face to face to face with a bad dream the thought remains
It can't go on

Will you be standing there
Call my name at the ending light
I'll set my soul beside you
God forgive this ending life

Dave where are you going
This burn in my heart is growing
Down on myself, I don't want to be
Set my soul apart constrict the feelings

I tell you what I do
Inside of my bedroom
I wrap my arms around
Myself as I'm feeling
These pains
Void from healing
I only wish I could hold back
This aggression
Please hear my confession
I try to keep myself from
Thinking about you
I can't live without you
You turned away from me
All of the lessons that
I had to learn and
All of the respect that
I had to earn and
You're the one that
Makes me understand
Life!

I tell you what I do
Inside of my bedroom
I wrap my arms around
Myself as I'm feeling
These pains
Void from healing
I only wish I could hold back
This aggression
Please hear my confession
I try to keep myself from
Thinking about you
I can't live without you
You turned away from me
All of the lessons that
I had to learn and
All of the respect that
I had to earn and
You're the one that
Makes me understand

So I'm not good enough to hang out with you're friends
You say it's a bluff, it's no lie
You want to be cool and hang with both sides
But what would they say, I'm the fool

It's a superficial society
It's a bunch of bullshit can't you see
Why wouldn't you wake up to reality
I guess backstabbing ain't the way of life for me

Open your mind and close your eyes
To the things that really persist
It's not your hair or the things you wear It's hard to find yourself sometimes
Around the people with a cool policy
Why don't you let yourself unwind
And leave that lame society

Superficial society
Superficial society
Superficial society
It's all superficial to me
Superficial society

Completing life with cold blank eyes
My final thoughts race through my mind
With some brief visions of what's to come
Is there a light, it is just done

I'm running away from what I can't explain
A new location, strange vibration from a different time and age
On a trip, in a dream far away, forgetting the proceeding day
I'm being chased, can't move
I'm running in place
Running-away
These endless days
The words were said, but I can't hear these voices in my head

Am I running away

Let me paint
You a picture
Or two just telling
You what I'd like
To do get a twelve
Pack and sit on
The beach and
Look at all the
Hookers I'll never
Meet there saying
"Look at me"
"Look at me"
"Look at me"
"Look at me"
Maybe I'll bleach
My hair or grow it
Out long I'll buy
A surfboard and lay
Out all day long
I'm the mammoth
For you to nurture
And I just want
You to think you'll
Be screwing a surfer
"Look at me"
"Look at me"
"Look at me"

This is a question of the human
Race will this planet remain in
Space two world leaders get
In a fight we'll all be gone
In a flash of light
When I die for my country
I'll take no part in the destruction
From World War III
I have no answer not my
Decision and if I spoke no one
Would listen is this the end
Of history, why should I care
Why should I worry
When we die for our country
We'll take no part in the destruction

A man walks through the rubble of this cold and mindless
Land with a chip on his shoulder and a pistol in his hand
No emotions he has immortal thoughts
No friends or peers for a thousand years in a place
Where he's been dropped
Just a threat and a waste of a deaf, blind soul
His tricks and cons are carried on while the ignorant enroll
You won't be the first, you'll be the very last to know
When you're face to face with a man called death
And life's the pending toll
So if you want to turnout like this bold and fearless man
The keep living your life in a reckless abandon
Thrown the dice, this gamble you have lost
Realize what you must sacrifice to pay the growing costs
Caught in a cage you slowly fill with rage
In a world where hates like a never ending plague
You won't be the first, you'll be the last to know
When you're face to face with a man called death,
