lyrics

Old School 101
Bien Venido a Miami
( instrumental )

Zero Down
Empty Promised Land

the clock is ticking on the wall the world is spinning
while the billions work to justify their lives
they search for meaning in their useless sense of breeding
in their quest for recognition when they die

because ego won't permit belief in our mortality
so we manufactured our delusioned lie
we believe with much conviction in our useless superstition
that our lives are bigger than life

the man on TV preaches his beliefs to me
and says that I am doomed because I don't think like him
he asks for contributions for his sermons' convolutions
in return is absolution for your sins

I watch in disbelief as people try and shed their grief
because they can't accept the things that they've become
they blindly patronize a dogmatic pack of lies
that tell them Jesus is their chosen one

strictly designed for the weak of mind
not just the working man's opiate anymore
paralyzed minds all seeking the sublime
with all doubt ruled out by their faith in the divine
all of them seeking that same righteous reward

weak of mind and born to follow
do not question the beliefs you swallow
eternal life for your belief in man
welcome to the empty promised land

don't think, don't breathe, don't live, just believe
with no question, just devotion, lifeless life living in transition
don't think, don't breathe, don't live, just believe
welcome to the, welcome to the, welcome to the empty promised land

Consumed
Wake Up With a Smile

I will be there for the wake up
and take you back with me
I will wake up with a smile
just for you

I've seen the visions on the tv
they're not half as good as you
and I like the silly things that you do

I like to watch her while she's sleeping
it settles me to know
from the start
from the heart
'cause she's smart

and you hit the mark
don't you breathe a word
of what you've seen and heard

I've seen the visions on the tv
they're not half as good as you
and I love the stupid things that you do

I will be there for the wake up
and take you back with me
I will wake up with a smile
just for you

'cause you're smart
and you hit the mark
you don't breathe a word
of what you've seen and heard

she's smart

Consumed
King Kong Song

you look good to me
can I take your picture?
is it fair to say
that you're mine
you belong to me?

you got in for free
it doesn't matter
'cause it's up to me
if I had my way
the things I'd do
I couldn't begin to say

what a piece of cake
I could be with you
wouldn't that be great
to decapitate your mate

and now I'm looking back to see
all the things that went wrong
when you look just like king kong
little things that go wrong

and now I'm looking back to see
all the things that went wrong
when I look just like king kong
little things do go wrong

Zero Down
Bite the Hand that Feeds

I have no interest in self-preservation
emptiness is like an old friend
I have no motive or any inclination
of doing anything for any one again

I've been the patsy, I've been the fool
I've been the scapegoat, now all of that is through
don't want to sit and wonder when the end is near
don't want to know where I'll be in 20 years

because I bite the hand that feeds

easy to call me selfish
after years of nurtured apprehension
I have no shame I take the blame
no more subordination

I gave up my self-esteem for a false security
and foolishly I chased that dream
that had to be force fed to me

because I bite the hand that feeds

I play no part in hope that dwindles
reality is such a change of pace
I see things now for what they are
and reality is such a different place

Nostalgia such a waste of time
so much life left to live
I can't dwell on yesterday
I gotta take as much as I give

bite the hand that feeds
bite the hand that feeds
bite the hand that feeds

Zero Down
Going Nowhere

is this what you offer me
a system of dishonesty
where life gets measured monetarily
and I'm just another face

another man with the simple skills
of staying alive and paying the bills
never amount to anything
live and die where I've always been

this is where I am at the bills still come no matter what
I'm all grown up but still I'm going nowhere
I'm all grown up but still I'm going nowhere

uneducated though I graduated
wish I would have been a little more dedicated
and got something out of school
instead of always playing the fool

but even if I did for just one day
had all the right words that I wanted to say
it wouldn't make a difference anyway
cause no one's listening

this is where I am at the bills still come no matter what
I'm all grown up but still I'm going nowhere
I'm all grown up but still I'm going nowhere

so save your words
just save your words
cause I don't care anymore

my father worked his life away
in all those years he never missed a day
there isn't anybody that could say
he didn't keep his bills paid

all that time he never got to do
all the things in life that he wanted to
he always kept his family fed
by the blood and sweat he shed

and for the sacrifice he's made this is how he gets repaid
I'm all grown up but still I'm going nowhere

No use for a name
Life Size Mirror

she was done before the start
always mending broken hearts
making others miserable not knowing who she's hurting

father said "this day will be
one for everyone to see"
is it true you'll follow suit
and have you learned a thing?

it's just a selfish way to go
it's safe to say she'll never know
for every person there's a whole life story waiting to be told

when she is happy it's OK
but then these people start to fade
then we'll just watch her self-destruct as she gets old

she put up defensive shields
to walk through all of life's minefields
all defined by make-up and a car behind she's hiding

"father do you have to go
left me questions I dont know"
any answers or even close the life time lie was true

she's gonna move on with her life
and take it one heart at a time
and watch the little girl inside her wait behind as she goes on

but with this black heart she decides
who she'll take in and shove aside
until the day she sees that everyone is gone

getting used to people leaving
thinking true love is deceiving
soon she'll know how lonely it can be

now was it really worth the pain?
a couple pills make her feel sane
while she lives out the story written for the part she is to play

with so much shame for her to hide
there's no more dignity, no pride
then there will only be dark in her light of day

and she will only see a reflection
of her father's rejection
nothing will change until she breaks this lie
this life size mirror

No Use for a Name
Lies Can't Pretend

I received your letter in the mail
sounds like times are hard for you again
you said that you'd be nineteen in september of this year
and you're breaking up with your first girlfriend

my dad and I got in a fight, he told
me to leave when everything was fine
there isn't much that I can do to help you yes it's true
but I promise that the hurt will heal in time...

and you don't deserve this

lies can't pretend
just another way of thinking
people can change when it seems they're not there for you

truth cannot lie
never heard a better word that trust
yes it's in you, know that it's true and right

let me count the ways that I feel so sorry
when it rains it drains the spirit dry
we all have our mishaps, misfortunes, misopportunities
and the strength to carry on consider yourself free

and you don't deserve this

lies can't pretend
just another way of thinking
people can change when it seems they're not there for you

truth cannot lie
never heard a better word that trust
yes it's in you, know that it's true and right

Mad Caddies
Shaving Your Life

early come one winters morning
I packed my bags and said goodbye
I knew my mind was made up
and then she cried and asked me

why I had run
I heard the world calling my name
had to find a better place
had to take a chance and get away

wake up to a different point of view
look to my better half but I dont see you
5000 miles away I left a life of ignorance
I did not understand
but to me it makes more sense

our lives go on
while we procrastinate
feeling okay
watching as the blue skies turn to gray
got nothing to say

later on a new spring morning
I felt my strength come back around
I knew I'd come full circle
left with the wisdom that I found

I had to run
I heard my home calling my name
back to a better place
back to somewhere I knew I could stay

our lives go on
while we procrastinate
watch days go by
funny how it all turns out when you start to try

I dont know where to go
I see that place in front of you
the things I thought were not true
I see the fires burning you
got nothing

Rise Against
My Life Inside Your Heart

fighting back the impulse
turn my head and close my eyes
spending these nights awake and cold and paralyzed

wonder how we got this far and never realized
the common thread that binds our lives
and I know you hurt
but I can help you if you can...

take my hand
and we'll live inside the dreams we left behind
take my hand
as we move from this place to a better life
take my hand
(if you take my hand)

fighting back the feeling
that you always could deny
anything but everything we know is just a lie

as I cremate this memory and watch the darkened ashes rise
and beneath the smoke I'll stand
and ask you if you can

take my hand
and I'll promise not to ever let it go
take my hand
'cause this hope is greater than you'll ever know
(take my hand)
and this is all I'll ever ask of you to show

fight back the urges
turn my head and close my eyes
and will I wake tomorrow still alive

I'm still dreaming
I'm still waiting
I'm still sure
(I'm still sure)

you're still living in a life
that isn't yours
(that isn't yours)
and this is part of me
I hope you never see
this is my life inside your heart

take my hand
and I'll promise not to ever let it go
take my hand
'cause this hope is greater than you'll ever know
(take my hand)
and this is all I'll ever ask of you to show

Rise Against
"The Art of Losing"

I'm not fucking blind
to the way that you talk
you talk around the truth
not just what you say
but what you do

played this tug of war
way too fucking long
like every time
again I've lost, you've won

you took advantage of the trust that I gave
took my forgiveness, rubbed it back in my face
reaching for words but there's nothing to say
I'm left to wonder will this ever be the same

this rage
burning through my veins
regret consumes my mind
cutting deeply like a razor blade

will I live to see
to see another day
without questioning your motives
with constant doubt

you took advantage of the trust that I gave
took my forgiveness, rubbed it back in my face
reaching for words but there's nothing to say
I'm left to wonder will this ever be the same

and as we sit back
waiting for these scars to heal
try to convince ourselves
that this
that this isn't real
will you allow me to forget your past
or will you always hang it over my head

AM2
"Angel High"

fly in the high clouds rolling by
to try to see them with your eye
to be with angels, high in the sky
no one can touch me high in the sky
angel fly
angel fly

I'm on the mountains high in the sky
holdin' on to dreams knowing they are lies
to buy the seconds shooting by
nothing can hurt - die in the sky
angel fly
angel fly

tonight I live my lonely dream forever
they can't take from me
they can't take down the angels in the sky
tonight I live my lonely dream forever
they can't take from me
they can't take down the angels in the sky

the fire and the wind, me
see all the wires holding me, see
full of lead and over deep sea
fly on forever, I will be free
angel fly
angel fly

I am the best, enough to fly
I am the one with the deep, blue sky
the water's too dark now, well I'm not
I have my freedom - with angels, I
angel fly
angel fly

tonight I live my lonely dream forever
they can't take from me
they can't take down the angels in the sky
tonight I live my lonely dream forever
they can't take from me
they can't take down the angels in the sky

AM2
"Justify"

tell me why you should die
give a reason for all my lies
made up for the war
playboys backed up and all

justify the whole world
don't believe it's a justice call
gonna see you going down
don't you know you're going down?

woah - did you see nothing?
tell me would you try again
woah - did you see fire?
tell me then go much higher
woah - can you turn normal?
tell me now, hold your fire
woah - can you find your mind?
tell 'em all when you're higher

they sent you to a place
you came home a disgrace
had two so you could waste
reason well in your haste

tell me now, you say grace
in your mouth a bad taste
hope yours is the last case
you know that he has a face

woah - did you see nothing?
tell me would you try again
woah - did you see fire?
tell me then go much higher
woah - will you turn normal?
tell me now, hold your fire
woah - can you find your mind?
tell them all when you're higher

AM2
"Take It High"

devastated highway
let's take it high, let's take it low
the ever-open skyway
let's take it high, let's take it low

the over-rated hero
is given five, let's take a bow
the estimated fly time
that meant a lie, take a blow

woah-oh-oh-oh
he must be crazy!
woah-oh-oh-oh

it was a soulless single flight
but not now
he's a dead knight
ten-four, roger that, over

it was a soulless single flight
but not now
he's a dead knight
ten-four, roger that, over and out

got bombarded by lead
one last line hit the ground
overheated engine
one last dive, went too low

devastated highway
let's take it high, let's take it low
the ever-open skyway
let's take it high, let's take it low

woah-oh-oh-oh
he must be crazy!
woah-oh-oh-oh

it was a soulless single flight
but not now
he's a dead knight
ten-four, roger that, over

it was a soulless single flight
but not now
he's a dead knight
ten-four, roger that, over and out

AM2
"Fighter Flyer"

hey hey hey
hey hey hey

I will defy the ones
I've seen the pilot take a dive
now I flew on that flight
so let me tell you 'bout the fun

Let me do the shooting down
for the final round
I don't want any tears
just go on and on, my baby

I shot that flyer down
I saw him spinning through the air
said I shot my last foe
so let me tell you 'bout them, bro

he let the bullets whine
for the final time
I shed no further tears
just go on and on, my babe

hey hey hey

I don't want to go
No, I don't want to go
The man said I gotta go
So I go anyway

hey hey hey

I don't want to go
No, I don't want to go
He said I gotta go
So I go anyway

just let me know what you see there
just come back to life, not death

you looked up from the ground
you never ever knew his name
when I watched him spinnin' 'round
now you can never feel the same

Let me do the shooting down
for the final round
I don't want any tears
just go on and on, my baby

I shot that flyer down
I saw him spinning through the air
said I shot my last foe
so let me tell you 'bout them, bro

he let the bullets whine for the final time
I shed no further tears
just go on and on, my babe

hey hey hey

I don't want to go
No, I don't want to go
The man said I gotta go
So I go anyway

hey hey hey

I don't want to go
No, I don't want to go
He said I gotta go
So I go anyway

just let me know what you see there
just come back to life, not death

AM2
"Looking For U"

out in the streets
getting a chill
shaking the die
stay on the blue my man

one single day
to pay the rent
before I get it
it's already spent, baby

I guess you already know this long song
even if you don't, you can go on
I'm thinkin' that this life is just not real

lying on the ground,
looking at the sun
I'm just 'bout to burn
flying through my space
floatin' 'round the stars
keeping up my pace

what a good view
late in the night
hopin' you're alive
got into a fight, man
wait until dawn
there's some light
hope comes soon
drivin' me crazy, baby

I guess you already know this long song
even if you don't, you can go on
I'm thinkin' that this life is just not real

takin' on the world
flying off the ground
so high--onto stars
Flying through my space
floatin' 'round the stars
keeping up my pace

Lying on the ground,
Looking at the sun
I'm just 'bout to burn
Flying through my space
floatin' 'round the stars
keeping up my pace

AM2
"No Return"

as I look out from the cockpit
at break of dawn
all I want to see is the runway
leadin' to my home

my home
my home

when I look out from the gunsight
at rising sun
all I want to see is my baby
awaiting my return

my return
my return

over the runway
can't get no higher
pushing the limit
born again fighter

over the runway
can't get no higher
pushing the limit
born again fighter

now I pull up short, the cockpit
shakes and it burns
all I now can see is a vision
there in front of me

of me
of me

when I wake up and the enemy
come from behind
the metal cuts and it burns
so now I realize

no return
no return

over the runway
can't get no higher
pushing the limit
born again fighter

over the runway
can't get no higher
pushing the limit
born again fighter

AM2
"Ride the Wind"

ride the wind
killing time
in a raid that isn't mine
I will be hard to find ten miles away

got no fear, now I see
I don't care how they feel
hell, it's not too good to try to run away

hey, can you see my vapor trail?
hey, stay behind my vapor trail

yeah man, there's no time to be that
one day you'll be a hero
yeah man, you know to stay on top
if you can, they'll turn away

yeah man, there's no time to be that
one day you'll be a hero
yeah man, you know to stay on top
if you can, they'll turn away

thanks for the ride
you can't beat it
say again

far from home, feeling down
what a cold and lonely town
I wish I could go back
ten years ago

got no chance, now I know
I don't hold any hope
wish to hell I never had to let it go

hey, can you see my vapor trail?
hey, stay behind my vapor trail

yeah man, there's no time to be that
one day you'll be a hero
yeah man, you know to stay on top
if you can, they'll turn away

yeah man, there's no time to be that
one day you'll be a hero
yeah man, you know to stay on top
if you can, they'll turn away

AM2
"She Says This"

can't fake your promises again
nothing you do can ease the pain
I just want to go back
when our love was doin' fine
I just have to say to her
If I could say, if I could say

even if she says it's over
I know we'd be fine
even if she says it's over
I know we'd be fine
always be sick and ache of her
I can't lose this time
even if she says it's over
I know we'd be fine
but she says this

when we hurt
in that way again
when all of the help
is all the pain
got my place on the line
I was sick of filing down
she needs me and flyin' high
if I'm away, I guess you'd say

even if she says it's over
I know we'd be fine
even if she says it's over
I know we'd be fine
always be sick and ache of her
I can't lose this time
even if she says it's over
I know we'd be fine
but she says this

AM2
"The Battle"

hurricane on the far horizon
high wind blowin' in the center
spots of rainfall on his visor
volunteered to take the mission

see him now amid the storm
crying out in all his anger
shoulda stayed but it's too late
this is the way
this is the only way

fire one, hit the light
do it once, move around
goin' down low
fire one, hit the light
do it once
go down

cannon fire from his machineguns
ripping, howling in the dark night
tear a line across the side
streaks of black smoke fill the blue sky

see him now amid the battle
crying out in all his glory
didn't stay and it's so great
this is the way
this is the only way

inside, do it right
now lock it on
move it on, its a hard hit
inside, do it right
now lock it on
right on

fire one, hit the light
do it once, move around
goin' down low
fire one, hit the light
two at once
goin' down

AM2
"This Trips"

I've got a full tank to go
I'm gonna ride 'til it's low
well this trip has just been re-done
it can be my second run

I'm not gonna stay 'til I get old
don't wanna laugh dead and cold
on the road where I belong
no more pain, I'm too far gone

tell the boss-man I'm not around
tell the people I'm off the ground
tell my baby I'm not that strong
tell all the world not to wait, I'm gone

balance of time, don't you know
I've been hit but I'm the show
my life's just like re-runs
like bullets from machine guns

I've got a full tank to go
I'm gonna ride 'til it's low
this trip has just been re-done
it can be my second run

tell the boss-man I'm not around
tell the people I'm off the ground
tell my baby I'm not that strong
tell all the world not to wait, I'm gone

AM2
"Good Time Wings" (ending)

high clouds and rolling winds
high hopes and fallen friends
high fives and goodbye laughs
I gotta go - I gotta have good times

fly on and never stop
fly by and hope to die
fly high - y'know let's hope
I gotta go - I gotta have good times

into the sun
out of the rut
take me up

I'm alone
riding my route
take me home

why wait feeling tired
why fly the lonely skies
why go the extra miles
I gotta go - I gotta have good times

look out for number one
no chance to turn and run
I do it just for fun
I gotta go - I gotta have good times

take up the slack
don't you turn back
stay on track

all of the times
stay on the line
you'll be fine

open the gate
no time to wait
can't be late

into the sun
out of the rut
take me up

AM2
"Survivor" (intro)

you're standing like a survivor
a poser in a new threat
a love affair without danger
who do you think you're gonna impress?

this here goes there
he's gonna send you there
too late to turn your back
you're on the wrong track

survivor - so real
survivor - don't feel
survivor - won't heal
survivor - so real

 

how to rip Dreamcast audio

Dreamcast games usually have their music and sound effects stored as .adx files, compressed into a large .afs file. Use Puyo Tools to extract the .adx files from the .afs file; then use PES Sound File Converter to convert them into .wav files, which any audio editor can handle.
