lyrics

I will not salute the flag I will not support the war oh what's it for? it's for the rich to eat up all the poor I will teach the younger souls guide them through the scarey world it's such a scary place if you're small and no one holds your hand I will build my own treehouse livin' in the forest and I'll wake up with the sunshine the birds are singin' out protect the trees, they're keeping us alive I'll write zines forever more publishin' my projects and I won't stop at locked doors I'll just climb over them! Do it yourself, and the whole world's in your hands everybody dance I will not be dressed in black the colors explode and they're blasting through with light there's rainbows everywhere I wanna be a reflection of the sun the colors all explode I will sing until I die screamin' in the streets as I ride down on my bike I feel so alive when I am loud, and you can't stop me now I'm singin' till I die I will strive to organize gotta make a change and it's gotta happen now, now, now we'll soon be dead so lift your head get back on your feet open up your heart I will strive to organize gotta make a change and it's gotta happen now, now, now, now, now, now, now we'll soon be dead! so open up your heart open up your heart

Wrong Lane 02:38

I've got a secret that I can't quite say out loud but she don't know it can't be so and I try to hide it away Roller skates and a bicycle they both roll, but they're not the same if I walk in the wrong lang, I might get run over Do you realize how perfect was the other night just like a movie scene she's lying next to me I don't say much, I kinda laugh it's really rather funny if you add up the math we can cancel out the common fraction no chance left for distraction I woke up next to my best friend what if we could try it all over again I've seen it many times before, are you still there behind the door? there are things, I wanna say but I would never tell ya honey, no way I'd rather be your friend than risk it all again I've got a secret I'm in love with the girl next door but she don't know it can't be so and I try to hide it away Roller skates and a bicycle they both roll, but they're not the same if I walk in the wrong lane, I might get run over there are things, I wanna say but I would never tell ya honey, no way I'd rather be your friend than risk it all again

Psychological Violence 03:28
lyrics

"You don't fucking know me" is what he said trying to make me feel bad with a gun against my head lying in bed with a lover scared for my life, that revolver... I crawled back to bed with you despite almost being murdred poor show of my femenism and all that I'd learned before leave town while I still can, goodbye leave town while I still can, goodbye. Never again will I fall for self-inflicting wounds of how a girl should behave, how to obey the words of a man of what is right and how a woman should be I'm not your wife I'm not your property Diagnosis: symptom related, psychological violence. you shut me up and kick me out of your conversation why don't you just sit down and listen and shut the fuck up about what you're telling me, how to live my life well I'm alright, no thank you kindly, I'm alright My choices are my own, I will not apologise And what you expect of me I will not compromise You think you know me better than myself-- Thank you, America for 40 years backwards in the sexual revolution what the hell were you thinking?? A strong anarcha-feminist still has issues with my female gender roll in society where we still can't be who we want to without being harassed, being ignored being uptight, being a whore feeling forlorn, wanting for more respect and treated like a human being and know that it's a social problem and not my "chemicals" when I get sad and angry Diagnosis: symptom related, psychological violence. you shut me up and kick me out of your conversation why don't you just sit down and listen and shut the fuck up about what you're telling me, how to live my life well I'm alright, no thank you kindly, I'm alright I'm alright, you can go to hell cuz I'm alright

My favorite quote's on a bathroom stall that I found when I was alone it says "don't give up before you've even started" they're words I'd like not to forget when the state of the world seems hopeless so don't give up before you've even started In a million years if we all survive or even if we don't, it'll still be there: A layer of concrete beneath the soil a rock that's made of streets and government buildings One day they'll fall down! torn apart brick by brick it can't last forever this system of capitalism we can make changes tear apart our own walls we have to start now we have to start now... Our future ancestors will all be appauled read the trauma on every tree they could smell our oppression, our sorrow, our sadness inside of our chemical bones the piles of pollution junk yards filled with cars and they'll wonder just how we could live like this? the earth was in overdrive how could we ever survive lest we learn how to SMASH THE WALLS One day they'll fall down! torn apart brick by brick it can't last forever this system of capitalism we can make changes tear apart our own walls we have to start now we have to start now... So don't give up before you've even started don't give up before you've even started don't give up before you've even started don't give up before you've even started

Lungs 02:14
lyrics

Play another song I play another song to forget about the distance between you and me across the Baltic sea five-hundred-two point seven-eighteen-oh-four kilometers apart between our beating hearts way up there in Sweden You held your lungs out I held mine too and we breathed in and out and in and out our bodies searching to be as one coheasive unit in the dark I said I love you under the moon in the park naked as a new born child hold me closer for a while cuz you're leaving tomorrow It's not the end but it sure hurts to say goodbye goodbye, goodbye, goodbye I'll see you another time when we're a little bit older Play another song I play another song to forget about the distance between you and me across the Baltic sea It's not the end but it sure hurts to say goodbye goodbye, goodbye, goodbye I'll see you another time when we're a little bit older
