Words and Music: Eddie Star, David Spielman, Kelly Charles
Intro: Chorus
Verse #1
I am poison to your heart
The bitter and sweet tares me apart
Fatal charm with a sick smile
I’ve had my taste of reality for a while
Shut me out and put me down
I’m in society’s lost and found.
Chorus
Rejected, infected
Rejected, disconnected
Rejected, affected
Rejected, disrespected
Verse #2
Can you look inside of me.
Does it scare you what you see
Mixed up youth, an aging freak.
Emotions drained and I’m feeling weak
In this spring time of my life
There is nothing but chaos and strife.
Chorus
Guitar solo
Verse #3
I am pleasure I am pain.
Life is too short to be mundane.
I walk on I walk alone
Trying figure this world on my own.
A voice is screaming inside of me
Saying “this can’t be reality”
Repeat chorus twice

Words and Music: Eddie Star, Anthony Griffith, Calvin Popejoy, Kelly Vaught
Verse #1
Mental shutdown I can’t think.
If I thought about what’s going on.
It would drive me to drink.
I just can’t deal with reality
I’m not a recluse or naïve.
I’m just trying to protect my sanity.
Chorus
Shot myself with Novocain.
My heart and soul are Numb.
I can’t feel the pain.
Shot myself with Novocain.
I feel like I’m going insane.
Verse #2
Crime and violence everywhere
None of the politicians seem to care.
Ask yourself don’t you feel?
Or do you deny anything that’s real.
Sometimes life can be so strange
A revolution is coming I can feel a change.
Chorus
Guitar solo
Verse #3
Every time I turn on the TV news
I have to change the channel cause I get the blues
I have to be numb I just can’t cope.
Sometimes I wonder if there is any hope.
Sometimes life can be so strange
A revolution is coming I can feel a change.
Chorus
Ad lib till end.

Writers: Eddie Star - Kelly Charles
Verse #1
Civilization dies it’s all done.
No more ideas nothing has won.
Corporate control your thoughts are gone.
Why don’t they realize what’s going on.
A generation of mindless clones.
No revolutions to call their own.
Wake up, Wake up
Wake up, Wake up
It’s the blind leading the blind.
Chorus
Welcome to generation zero. (Repeat four times)
Verse #2
Follow every fad and trend.
No ideals left to defend.
Close your eyes to reality.
The media creates your fantasy.
Exploit old ideas from the past.
The meanings gone nothing moves fast.
Repeat chorus
Guitar solo
Verse #3
Sit and swallow all their lies.
Church and state try to disguise.
Special interest has their hold.
Take the money they have control.
The silent majority sits and waits.
To be told what to hate.

Writer: Eddie Star
Verse #1
Can you move through time and space?
Into a world another space.
Where moments are given back to you.
What would you say? What would you do?
If this chance were given back to you.
What would you do?
Chorus
One time
One Chance
Victim of Circumstance.
One time
One chance
Victim of circumstance.
Verse #2
Can’t move forward when you’re looking back.
Can’t feel strong when you’re under attack.
I’ve lived fast and moved too slow.
There are so many things I don’t know.
What’s it like when your world dies
What’s it like when there is nothing left inside.
Chorus
Guitar Solo
Repeat Verse #1
