The 25th Hour
When the pressure drops And the stakes are high A minute to prey A second to die The Twenty Fifth Hour strikes

Born on the wrong side Yet we choose to remain You know we built this Brick by brick Hand over fist No time (No time) No time for fools Ain't got no time No time for fools (Now) Now they try to sell it They've erased the name You know who you are I hope you choke on your fame No time No time for fools Ain't got no time No time for you I watch them come, I watch them go I see through you, you've been exposed I'm looking you in the eye No time for fools I'm talking to you No time for fools

Dirty deeds, keep calling me The bad signs, never kept me away Built up these walls, fuck them all I tried to change, I'm exactly the same Tried to beat it, the walls were too strong Tried to run, but you always return To that place, that gave you that sting Feel the separation Now you only fear, the cheap thrill is gone Tried to cheat it, you lost Hands tied, can't reach for the cure Can't stay away until they're destroyed Dirty deeds, keep calling me The bad signs, never kept me away Built up these walls, fuck them all I tried to change, I'm still the same Can't see the life you wanted to live Can't find the answers, the missing pieces Can't feel the love that you've thrown away You are the one, close to the fucking blade

A reality check Keep listening to that garbage And calling it this Begging for acceptance You make me sick It's all I see Heartless, worthless You're the fucking disease It's all I see Quit living that lie Check your reality For the year you're here You judge of everything Let's feed the rats And weed out the weak It's all I see Mindless, worthless You're a fucking disease It's all I see Quit living that lie Check your reality

Took thrill in your pain Your youth was destroyed And nothing's the same So much anger so deep inside I can't see no wrong from right You can't break the chains Damaged goods For you it's too late Don't turn your back Don't look away The hurt is real There will be pain Violence solving everything Now you smile, watching what you loved die Violence solving everything Waiting for your turn to feel the knife Begging for retribution The solution The hunt and the prey Your mind is consumed with destruction and hate Don't want to be loved, don't want to recover So much pleasure Watching them suffer Violence solving everything Now you smile, watching what you loved die Violence solving everything Waiting for your turn to feel the knife I feel so alone Or is this feeling nothing at all? Damned to repeat this pain Look what you've done to me

I saw myself in you All of you But that glimmer of hope You shut it down Same old story A taste of glory Can you face yourself After you face the crowd? Blinded by the light It's got you twisted around Blinded, blinded by the lights It's going to burn you down Knock down the ones who believed My revenge is when you descend No, I don't give a fuck what you call it I'm moving on, you'll never get it Blinded, blinded by the lights It's got you twisted around Blinded, blinded by the lights It's going to burn you down My revenge is when you descend No leeway, no compromise Weak motherfuckers like you I despise When I see you, I wanna cut you down I wanna cut you down, just like you shut me out Now you're on your own

Trust no face Or disguise I'm not leaving, no compromise Screaming out But nothing helps You push on to survive Better days never came It's eating you alive Screaming out But nothing helps You push on to survive Better days never came It's eating you alive Push on, push on I've seen better days Break away Take by force Take what's yours Violent thoughts Like a storm Every day No remorse

There's conflict Surrounding me Within myself And on these streets Everywhere I look Disease spreads My mind at war Begins again There's war inside my head There's war out on these streets There's war between wrong and right Now there's war between you and me Caught in my thoughts Just damaging Exterminate My suffering There's war inside my head There's war out on these streets There's war between wrong and right Now there's war between you and me My mind's at war again Tell me how I can win I'm feeling paralyzed Trapped in the lows and highs Mind at war

I see the cracks written all over you Nothing here is making sense Just another no run for cover Won't let you get inside my head Never explain yourself They don’t deserve it Never fold under pressure They set the trap for you to snap Trying so hard to cross up my words Always looking for a reason to make me sink People always throwing their opinions around But you won't get the drop on me Never explain yourself They don't deserve it Never fold under the pressure They set the trap for you to snap You best believe they are the enemy Setting you up to sink like stone Hold fast Mindset Don’t let them Don't let them break you

Say I got a problem with everything Can't see this clear and I won't change It's been dragging me down for so long The only thing left is for me to walk Life goes on With or without you I'm not sorry I doubted you Lost hope, it's broke What do you want to hear me say? You are the one that never bothered I'm set free by turning away Life goes on Without you I'm not sorry I doubted you Keep asking yourself What went wrong I'm already gone Still asking yourself What went wrong I'm too far gone Too many times you said get lost Well now it's happening This time it's happening Too many times you said fuck off I regret our paths ever crossed

I've done my best, my best to prove That I never needed you Since that day you threw me away I haven't asked you for a thing I found the road to forget those times To never return, and leave it all behind I am the product of so much rage I can't escape what you made me I am the bastard son Loved by no one You both threw me away This distance is killing me Went south to start your new life I was just a boy, how could you leave me behind? Those early days you were my everything So now I trust no one, keep them away from me I am the bastard son Loved by no one You both threw me away This distance is killing me I've got your name I've got your blood But I don't have Your fucking love

Late nights at the speed of my life This is how it was meant for me Deep roots Deep rooted Deep rooted Deep, deep roots There has never been another plan for me No one else has ever understood my pain For 41 years I still remain Still screaming what I heard in '89 The rebirth of hardcore pride Deep roots Deep rooted Deep rooted Deep, deep roots There has never been another plan for me Some drift away, grow up, and change But this is where I wanna be A better man I know I have been One promise I can keep Frustration every day I will not fall, I won't run away You showed me a better way A place to breathe where I can feel Deep roots Deep rooted Deep rooted Deep, deep roots There has never been another plan for me Deep roots Late nights at the speed of my life Deep rooted Deep, deep roots There has never been another plan for me Deep roots Late nights at the speed of my life Deep rooted Deep, deep roots There has never been another fucking plan for me
