I still have the notebooks we used to write our songs in
And the front cover is still covered up in Crass lines that we loved
to sing along.. sing along.
I remember walking down the streets of this dead end dying town
screaming our hearts out.
I wasn't ready to lose..
to lose another friend like this,
to put another friend to rest,
another friend that I won't see again.
Another friend that I can't talk to
and another friend that I can't call
Another friend that I won't see again.. in this life.
I still have the moments locked into my head
of the first time we went down into the band room
and played our first song.. sing along.
I remember all of the songs we sang on our way to the Big Time
so long ago..
I sing with you spirit like we did when you were alive.
I can always hear you sing along
I hear singing all of the time.
I hear you singing this whole line.
I will always hear you sing again.
Sing along...
Dedicated to Max Eschbach. Rest easy, man.

Brian's in the Army Now

Brian's in the army now. I haven's seen him in so long.
He's off fighting on foreign lands and then I really hope he's coming back home.
Brian's in the army now. I heard he's got a wife and kids.
I heard he's on his final tour and then I really hope he's coming back home.
And as the bombs are flying overhead, I hope he's safe and sound and protected. I hope his final tour is over soon so Brian can finally back home. Brian's in the army now.
Brian's in the army now. It was his means to an end.
He signed up to escape a life that was already becoming a constant war.
Brian's in the army now. I hope to see him again.
I hope his days under the desert sun are done so Brian can finally come back home.
As the bullets fly through dry desert air, I hope he's coming at the end of his final tour over there so Brian can come back home.
The war is over. But, the war at home as only just begun..
Brian's life got so fucked up when him and I were growing up.
Things that happened that forced the boy to become a man..
And he became one of the greatest men that I've ever fucking known.
Please come back home.

He blew a 0.33 the first time he got fucked up.
He blew a 0.38 when he fought a cop.
That's when he got tossed on house arrest and I rarely seen him after that..
He's a kid that always had my back
And he's got a heart bigger than most have.
He gave me a place to stay when I had nowhere to go
I haven't seen him in so long. Where have you gone?
Where have you gone? Are you happier wherever you are now where ever you are?
The last time I seen his brother was right after he got shot
He was showing off his wounds to anyone who would look
It's still one of the grossest things I've ever fucking seen.
I can't list all of the things they have done for me
But, most importantly they gave me clarity in my times of need.
They were both always there for me.
They are the greatest friends that I could've asked for.
And I wouldn't ask for more... But I'd like to ask..
Where did you go?

Strong Hearts

With his name kicked through the mud by his drugs of choice
A poetic tongue sponges up the thoughts in his head
Too tired to exist in this world by force
He's got a troubled mind blinded by a heavy heart
Shaky hands, anxiety.. Nowhere bound philosophy
I've seen him struggle his own life.
He's trying to shake it off for good
and come out on top and finally leave it all behind.
With dope sick eyes he sees the world as he can only see.
Strong Hearts..
With dope in his system and music in his soul
His life went spinning out of control
With hope in his heart and music in his soul
This time around he can finally come home.
Now he says it will be different
He's out of rehab and out of halfway homes
He collects all of his thoughts to keep them in place
He says that he won't fuck up
He'll never fall behind. We won't be waiting
We let the stereo scream out the anthems of our lives
We let the stereo scream out the anthems of teenage years
Music saved us from ourselves
This stereo saved us from ourselves
So let the stereo scream..

A Song of Dedication

This song is for Alyssa, and Connor, and Larry,
Shawn Bliler and Tyler, and Lori Folweiler.
It's for Billy and Max and for all of my friends who left this world to soon.
I can't count how many shots I've taken in memory of one of my friends who left too soon..
Or all of the songs or albums that were written in dedication of one of my friends who left too soon.
This song is for Mr. Green. He was one of the sweetest men this world ever knew.
You raised more kids than just your own. You taught us so much.
I can't wait to see you again with all of my friends who left too soon.
