    Rare as hell... Have you ever made a jewel case packaging? Do you know the level of precision at which Spencer from Youth Riot applied the stickerings onto this disc?

    I don't know if you do, but I know that it's precise and frustrating work. That's why it's $10 for the CD. I don't typically ever do CDs for that reason. We made these for sending to radio stations and such. I gave one to KEXP and I figure they didn't open the package.. because there are some slamming radio hits on this CD.

Brother if I lied to you Boy you know I'd always regret it Only thing i wanted from you was the truth Everybody knows that you're wrong I didn't have to say it in this song But then I did Brother if I gave love to you Don't you think I'd wanted to remember? Everything I'm doing for you makes the fool Glaring ain't enough and I know Taking care is always a hassle Everybody seems to be staring at me

Seems like I've done it again I'm running out of good ends Seems like I've been here before This time I wanted more These things they make you think twice Before you sell at half price Those things that benefit you The least you couldn't do And it feels like I've been dreaming flowers for everyone And it feels like I've been feeding powers to help no one What I want could not be free What I want could not be free But I know Inaction shows, you've got to go Seems like it's happened again I've been betrayed by a man He's got the power over you (Power over you) Maybe I'll think it through next time And it feels like I've been dreaming flowers for everyone And it feels like I've been feeding powers to help no one What I want could not be free What I want could not be free But I know Inaction shows, you've got to go Seems like I've done it again Seems like I've done it again Seems like, it seems like I've done it again I've done it again Seems like I've done it again...

And I don't feel right today Heaven is so far away If I button up and start to play The devil comes calling in every way Think I'll wrestle with the truth today Given a shot at redemption And I don't feel right okay Heaven is so far away She may want, she may live, she may want what the others got to give her (I've been listening, I've been listening to my heaven) She may want, she may live, she may want what the others got to give her (I've been listening, I've been listening to my heaven) Ooh, anytime that you feel it Ooh, Papa you better believe it And ooh, anytime you feel it Ooh, Mama you better believe it I can laugh, I can cry I can stop but I know it won't be the last time (I've been listening, I've been listening to my heaven) I can laugh, I can cry I can stop but I know it won't be the last time (I've been listening, I've been listening to my heaven) Please don't handle this You'll make a mess of everything Please don't handle this I've got it, I've got it And I don't feel right today Heaven is so far away And I don't feel right today The devil is calling and he's here to stay And I don't feel right today Oh you may find a way And I don't feel right today Heaven is so far away

If I don't wanna know Well should I tell you that? Not that I couldn't go It's that I'm feeling like I've got to leave Cause it's so hard If don't wanna go Well should I tell you that? Not that I didn't know It's that I'm feeling like I've got to leave Cause it's so hard If I don't wanna show On my face how I'm feeling Not that I didn't know It's that I'm feeling like I've got to leave Cause it's so hard Yes it's so hard Yes it's so hard Yes it's so hard If I don't wanna share Well should I tell you that? Not that I didn't care Well just that feeling like I've got to leave Cause it's so hard If I am unaware Well should I tell you that? Not that I didn't care Well it's just I'm feeling like I've got to leave Cause it's so hard And if I'm always there Should I tell you that? Having fun ain't always fair It's just that you've got to know that I've got to leave Cause it's so hard Yes it's so hard Yes it's so hard Yes it's so hard Yes it's so So hard, woah So, so, so hard So hard, hard Good news, you choose Good news, you choose I'm through Good news, you choose Good news, you choose I'm through Good news, good news Good news, good news I'm through Good news, good news Good news, good news I'm through

Every time I think I'm gonna make it Then it's already time to try to let it go If you've got mushrooms in your hat then follow me If you've got weasels in your sack then set them free And every time I think I've got the answer Well then someone comes along to tell me that I'm wrong It's not enough to be the one that's almost there Never enough to be the one who has the privilege to pretend just not to care And I'm never gonna feel the same, love like you wanted to Never gonna feel the rain long as you ask me to And I'm never gonna be ashamed until you ask me to Sold myself short again just like you wanted to But I Every time I think it begs the question That if you can't recommend, then I'm wasting all my time So nice to soothe it when you're aching from the ends So trite to prove it when your position never bends Even as you're feeling good Doing things just like you should Hands of evil twist your neck (Hands of evil) Do my fingers fill with regret? And I'm never gonna feel the same, love like you want me to Never gonna feel the rain long as you ask me to And I'm never gonna be ashamed until you ask me to Sold myself short again just like you wanted to And I'm never gonna feel the same, love like you want me to (Never gonna feel the same) Never gonna feel the rain long as you ask me to (Never gonna feel the same) And I'm never gonna be ashamed until you ask me to (Never gonna feel the same) Sold myself short again just like you wanted to (Never gonna feel the same, no) Just like you want to

Having fun 'til someone does you dirty Making a mess at the table with your hands They give you their love, you tell them you're not worty Would you let me know? Driving home but someone's in your backseat Call them your friends but they're keeping things from you You ruined the song by listening on repeat, oh no Would you let me know? Could you let it go? Well would you let me know? Oh could you let it go? Oh so much time for your problems Not much time 'til you rob them from me So much time for your problems There's too much time 'til we solve them Oh yes there is Temporary warmth is what I'm after It's better for you if you let them wear you thin Can't you hear the mice up in the rafters? Would you let me know? Could you let it go? Well would you let me know? Could you let it go? Well so much time for your problems Not too much time 'til you rob them from me Well too much time for your problems There's too much time 'til we solve them

I ain't no crook I'm just trying to feel the music And if I'm shook Well then I'm the one who's losing That smile I took Well it's not to be confusing now A lot of ways To tell you there's a problem And in my haze Well I don't think I could stop them So close to tasting All of what I should renounce I ain't no crook so tell me what's your plan sir I ain't no crook, I'm just a fancy dancer I ain't no crook, Lord I just don't want to answer you You I ain't no crook so tell me what's your plan sir I ain't no crook, Lord I'm just a fancy dancer I ain't no crook, I just don't want to answer you You OW! I ain't no crook I'm just trying to feel the music And if I'm shook Well then I'm the one who's losing That smile I took Well it's not to be confusing now C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon Woo! Shoo-buh-duh-buh-duh mornin' One more time now Oh, oh yeah I ain't no crook I'm just trying to feel the music And if I'm shook Well then I'm the one who's losing That smile I took Well it's not to be confusing now Now...

So mean 02:40
So mean, you're so mean to me So mean to me, oh why? Crying, how I cry again I'm lying to my friends Lonely, you're so lonely The only who knows So mean, you're so mean to me What did I ever do to deserve this? What am I gonna do?

Could I swim in your pool? Do you think that'd be cool? Or do you think I'm a fool for you? Maybe we could be friends I don't think so How much rice in the bowl? What's the price of the toll? Here's that smile that I stole from you Well if I have to grow old Well I don't want to If I don't have to Oh I don't want to If I don't have to If I'm stuck in the tar And you're well above par Oh how that left a scar on me How did me get so far from me? It may just happen Though I tried to I never wanna see you Doing what you always do Because you know that I'd be so kind And I tried to Settle and take a clue (Go on without you) But looking straight at you Well you know that it'd never be true I never wanna put you through Never wanna put you there And I never wanna put you through Never wanna put you there And I always seem to lack something kind And I always try to put things behind But I know you'll see right through that (Never wanna put you through that) And I'd like to Take it on back to Bleeding through my shoes And a fever that I couldn't define And I don't feel right Stepping into the night Try to hold myself so lightly You know that I never could to I never wanna put you through Never wanna put you there And I never wanna put you through Never wanna put you there And I always seem to lack something kind And I always try to leave things behind But I know you'll see right through that (Never wanna put you through that)
