Amber 02:54
Where do you go when there's no one you know there? The fog, the night, the street again. A 20$ bill and a purse in her hand. She had left Hastings on her way to something But these Broad Streets have offered nothing. The betterness she had in mind Something that she never finds. A peace and a state that seems out of mind. Out of the fog and out of the night Finally a face she could recognize. The message is not the same Conditions have changed I feel better now that You're here by my side. Now take my hand And make it right. Tell me that everything's going to be alright We'll make it right, alright? Where do you go when there's no one you know there? Some days, perspective's not enough. She stayed on my couch for quite some time now. She opened up enough to let herself let go. «Life on the street is never really fun. It's like being far from home and everybody's gone. Naked and stranded by the barrel of a gun. You don't even get to appreciate the sun.» She told me all along, on the couch, the light on. The message is not the same Conditions have changed I feel better now that You're here by my side. Now take my hand and make it right. Tell me that we'll stand the test of time.

Shame On You 01:44
Over desks by grey peoples The rules are set by their leaders Followers, who’s leading you Who gives you the truth You believe into Lucky ones can't realize They all seem to be paralyzed Things that are shown Are to increase fear Thought control Their main weapon is Now wars are created And war funds are raising We all now feel safe With the whole neighborhood armed This is just a nice place to live Feeling safe with that piece on my hand, no With the greediness the triggers are pulled You made me and my brothers murderers Open your eyes You can do more This is no dream Every life’s worth much more Living and dying, fighting and killing people like you what the fuck you think you do

Doesn’t it ever seem so cruel? This world is cold, full of fuckin’ abuse. It’s like all there was ever to do Is buy shits and forever consume. Making myself alright, I’m taking my life one day at a time. The nicest things are not hard to find Just got to take life one day at a time. We’ve all seen the misery. We’ve seen it all on our TV. But we go on now with our day. I don’t let it, let it affect me. Making myself alright I kick my feet and I open wide. A TV screens the world. On display, nothing is right at the end of the day. Nothing is right anymore, more, more... I shut my eyes and I hear the news. Images I see send me so confuse. The world can crash, collide or die, I know I will sleep, I will sleep tonight.

Today is a day of celebration Let's across America drink to this There's finally a holiday For everyone to celebrate Thanx cuz We all believe in you Thinking that money Brings us happiness Thanx God We all believe in you Now we must think it's good To bomb our peers I'm so proud of everyone There's no more reasons To stay divided Cuz everybody gets united On Ignorance Day Thank you system for being so fair The space between social classes is Now spread wide Thank the media for showing us the truth Lets celebrate our nice democracy Bring all these idiots to the ballot boxes And now I'm walking through the door I could be crawling on the floor With all the media with the focus on the hill A fucking fashion show I'm so proud of everyone There's no more reasons To stay divided Cuz everybody gets united On Ignorance Day

Yeah Yeah 03:07
I'm sitting here by myself The sun is shining but I can't tell What's wrong with me, what does people see I don't give a shit about what they think I'm hanging around in my own town The fucking neighbourhood I've seen it all I got to say that I need to go Take me to some area that I don't know Let's go! Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Everytime I look around It feels like a nose bleed I see my friend buddy He doesn't know how to read It doesn't hurt but it don't feel right Commiseration I see my friend buddy I know he got a book But he's never gonna be able to read

Driven 03:50
Driven by this dream I had To be on stage and drive you wild Punkrock saved my life Starting from that first album in summer class. Punk in drublic was all I had, with 'Liars' and 'Anarchy in the UK' and 'Problems' on some B-Side. That's when I thought «This simply is the best thing I have». But then one night I was just so sad. Sixteen and fucked, just awakening on society. I was freaking . Tonight's the night I'm gonna die. Right there I thought «Why wouldn't I?» Sunday's jam kept me alive. So here we are, we're playing live. When all your world goes crashing down And desperate you're on the ground. There'll always be that song To remind you You're not alone We all wonder what life's about We'd all want to shut it loud Break all the rules and just Bring Happiness to kill Distress. Your head it hurts, you overturn. This final cut, play it and burn. Did you make it count past the average? Not even close to kids your age. Your mind just doesn't have a ground. You're living off and out of bound. There's too many wrongs in which you don't belong. You played it wrong. No matter what you live on now Don't get me wrong, I know you're strong. When all your world goes crashing down And desperate you're on the ground. There'll always be that song To remind you You're not alone You want something more than the American dream You want something more for your life and kids You want something more for your daily needs You want something more than this American Greed. When all your world goes crashing down And desperate you're on the ground. There'll always be that song To remind you You're not alone

Hospital 03:47
I need to go to the hospital Where crazy folks sleep on the floor I think my heart just need a break I grab my keys hump in the car I want to drive till the light of dawn I hope that they find what it takes Pull me behind a curtain Just plug me on a machine I want to know what’s happening I need to know what’s happening I must go to the hospital Where hours flow like nowhere at all I think my heart's about to break I keep on waiting for a call I can't stay here but I can't go far I feel lousy and weak Pull me behind a curtain Just plug me on a machine I want to know what’s happening I need to know what’s happening Because sometimes it's like you're crazy You need someone but no one is there Because sometimes it's like you’re crazy You want to throw it all up in the air I want to know what’s happening I need to know what’s happening I've been to the hospital Where crazy folks sleeps on the floor There's nothing to do You just have to wait.

This is our first release.
Projected to be a Split Record, we ended up bringing that baby home after our friends EL PATRON broke up by the end of the recording process. Extended through the course of four short months, this project became an anthem to all that would happen in the wake of the 2012 maple spring. We couldn't have guessed for a better a title than ''Melee''...
