There’s a new wind blowing through these big blue parliament rooms It’s after me and you and it’s bringing hatred and doom Now is the time to stand up and say “We will fight until the day we die” Because we won’t give in to racial discrimination United Nation United Nation Don’t believe the lies you hear from all around We are the human kind walking on the same ground Stand up brother, come and join me sister and let’s fight until the day we die Don’t be fooled by false information United Nation United Nation There’s a new wind blowing through these big blue parliament rooms It’s after me and you and it’s feeding on the gloom Now is the time to stand up and say “We will fight until the day we die” Don’t believe in false accusations United Nation United Nation

Degenerated 03:02
Break free From the chains that hold us down From the patterns we got chosen From the lies that we were told Break free The truth is carved deep in our hearts It's a wake up call There has to be more than this Degenerated generation From birth to death we walk alone There's no such thing as hope For the heart that’s been bleeding from day one Degenerated generation We never had the future in our hands. Nothing lasts forever and I know You stood in the light while we walked in the shadows

The bombs were keeping me busy, the rain was keeping me wet When the Russian police came storming in, a vision I’ll never forget The chaos was still a surprise and I had the time of my life My dirty shoes were following the fun When your head’s down, you lose your mind You think it’s alright, you think it’s fine When you have fun it’s just a matter of time Before reality hits and it all comes tumbling down Punkrockers dressed for a Friday met cops dressed for a war And I thought to myself “What a wonderful place and I wanna come back for sure” Together we felt every moment and stood united as one As all the private cabs were passing by When your head’s down, you lose your mind You think it’s alright, you think it’s fine When you have fun it’s just a matter of time Before reality hits and it all comes tumbling down

I deny it 03:06
I deny it The stories about me aren’t true I fucked up but I’m not that bad I would never do things like that I’m being back stabbed again Waking up at twelve AM My bedroom walls are closing in Yesterday, things got carried away I'm sorry but I lost control Should have been at work at eight Should have shown some responsibility Free margaritas turned the whole world upside down I’ve got an arm full of wounds I’ve got a soul full of regrets Yesterday is a blank and I’m the easy one to blame You’re a rat and your words are spreading like a disease Yeah I’m a troublemaker but I’d never do like that Over my head there’s a dark sky The rain keeps falling down until the day I die Someday the sun will shine again I will have my recognition

Pick it up, don’t play hide and seek Pick it up, you’re misguiding me Take me on and then we will see Pick it up, you’re misguiding me You got me hooked and you had me going With all the stuff that you were showing It started off like a normal Saturday night You had kids in the park drinking homemade delight Pick it up, don’t play hide and seek Pick it up, you’re misguiding me Take me on and then we will see Pick it up, you’re misguiding me You had punks in love by the pizza place Trying to get those mysterious ways You got me hooked and you had me going And my emotions were overflowing It started off like a normal Saturday night Kids in the park drinking homemade delight Pick it up, don’t play hide and seek Pick it up, you’re misguiding me Take me on and then we will see Pick it up, you’re misguiding me

Under the city light in the streets I walk alone on hard concrete Complete Control, Hitsville UK I feel the rhythm and I feel the beat The young and free This time around I´m holding on to my memories There have been times when I've been down Down and out with my head against the ground I always forgive and try to forget Put it aside and go to rest The old and chained The older I get the harder I try to remember the good and not the bad

Stranded 02:59
I feel stranded, I feel lost by the things that I can not control With a broken heart and a broken dream I walk the street all alone I don’t know if I’ll ever be free From the past that is hunting me And I don’t wanna lose control Good friends I’ve had Good friends I’ve lost along the way And I wonder will you still be here? I feel stranded, I feel lost by the things that I can not control With a broken heart and a broken dream I search the street all alone For every new year another friend is gone I wonder what I am doing wrong and I get so full of regrets

The revival 03:19
I can’t stand believers that think they can Convert me into a religious man And when they come knocking on my door I cannot hold it back no more I don’t wanna hear about the revival Don’t tell me that I’m too blind to see And I don’t wanna read your fucking bible So don’t try to pull that shit on me Let me go, don’t wanna know All dressed up they’re walking down the street Forcing lies on people that they meet Loving the wrong person is a sin Open up your mind and let him in I don’t wanna hear about the revival Don’t tell me that I’m too blind to see And I don’t wanna read your fucking bible So don’t try to pull that shit on me Let me go, don’t wanna know

You were standing in the dark the snow was falling on your shoulders I couldn’t resist to walk away I heard you screaming out my name a last attempt to make me stay I was too weak to even care Now I’m feeling so ashamed I have burned all the bridges between my heart, soul and mind Due to lack of empathy I’m no longer the nice kind I have burned all the bridges down It was a cold december night I left you on a dead end street A lonely girl with a bleeding heart The tears were falling from your eyes I know it’s sad but I couldn’t care less Tonight I think I’ve had enough Things will never be the same For every problem that I’ve caused Please forgive me For every mistake I have done Please forgive me For every heart that I have broken Please forgive me

We’re singing songs for a new generation but they don’t listen that much at all The girls and boys need a new sensation We’re coming back for more Remains of a worn-out wreck floating ashore A chant of the boys royale tear through the core Now you’ve got them hanging by your door Oh baby, you don’t need to be alone no more Now you’ve got them hanging by door Oh baby, you don’t need to be alone no more I see you’ve been crying Tell me what’s on your mind Let me know how you’re feeling Bet you miss the best punk band in town I know you’ve been waiting For the new rude tunes Now we finally deliver and it’s not a second too soon

There’s a burning fire inside of me No storm will blow it away I see the clouds in the sky It’s getting brighter day by day A vision of the future keeps the blood pumping in my veins I will try to hold my head up high until the day I die I’m getting older I’m getting tired But I wont slow down I will hold on to my dreams It’s getting harder for each year to carry on I will hold on to my dreams So many sleepless nights Moving from side to side I can’t stop worrying What will the future bring? The world is spinning faster Faster for every day The commitments fill the schedule The schedule is killing me

I remember back in 1994, I heard a sound I had never heard before These guys were raw and they spoke right to my heart And since that day we have never been apart That moment will forever be One of the best things that’s happened to me Like a kid on Christmas Eve East Bay punk delivery So I bought everything I could, I even cut my hair I didn’t know that it would change my life forever Then one evening back in 1995, I had never felt so much alive It was the best thing that I had ever seen And I feel the same today as I did when I was a teen That moment will forever be One of the best things that’s happened to me Like a kid on Christmas Eve East Bay punk delivery

I have been true to these streets and I have been watching the changes I’ve got the small town in me and the lack of a big city life I’m just a normal guy, there’s nothing special about me I’ve got a job and I’ve got a girl and I’ve got places to be So give me a bag with the cheapest of dreams And I will surely come around And gather the lot who are stuck in this town Let’s get up, let’s go out, let’s go down I have been looking for fame but I have no clue where it is I’ve been to Russia and I’ve been to Spain But it always ends up like this So give me a bag with the cheapest of dreams And I will surely come around And gather the lot who are stuck in this town Let’s get up, let’s go out, let’s go down And here we are, in the same spot as last week We haven’t come too far On solid ground Let’s get up, let’s go out, let’s go down
