No Other Place lyrics - Authority Zero

There's a place that's been reaching with fists in the air

In deep aspirations, growing much more sincere

Strength fills our words while the sweat fills the floor

We're reaching for something and searching for so much more

Is there nothing at all left to see?

Is there nothing at all left to be?

Now we're running in place

It's been one hell of a ride and I can see in your face still

There's no other place that I'd rather be

Than right where I'm standing with you here beside me

Yeah, there's no other time that I'd rather know

Than here in this moment, just watching it all explode

Right here and now

This is the time

No! I can't hear you!

Love and loss, that part of life you don't forget

Expecting the worst but always praying for the best

You hold to something to watch it all slip away

It's here in this moment; there's nothing here left to save

Is there nothing at all left to see?

Is there nothing at all left to be?

Now we're running in place

It's been one hell of a ride and I can see in your face still

There's no other place that I'd rather be

Than right where I'm standing with you here beside me

Yeah, there's no other time that I'd rather know

Than here in this moment, just watching it all explode

What's been done is done, and yet, I can see the light

It's what goes in as we continue to fight

What's gone so wrong and what is this all for?

To live a life that is worth dying for

No other time and place; that time is here and now

No other way around it; this is going down

No other time and place; that time is here and now

No other way around it; this is going down right now

Is there nothing at all left to see?

Is there nothing at all left to be?

Now we're running in place

It's been one hell of a ride and I can see in your face still

There's no other place that I'd rather be

Than right where I'm standing with you here beside me

Yeah, there's no other time that I'd rather know

Than here in this moment, just watching it all go

Yeah, there's no other place that I'd rather be

Than right where I'm standing with you here beside me

Yeah, there's no other time that I'd rather know

Than here in this moment, just watching it all explode

Right here and now

This is the time

Yeah! Let me hear you!

Undivided lyrics - Authority Zero

Stepping out alone into the faces that you had never seen
With sights set on your sense of urgency
I'll tell you what this all looks like to me

It's sinking ships and castaways
With their hands stretched out and led astray
A dying wish on an endless sea

Are we all drifting away? (This is the last of our days)
Can this be what we've been dying to say?

Or have we all been divided while the struggle carries on?
In a world that's set its standards and a life worth living on
In the face of this united while the silence stands alone
The loss won't be forgotten; these new pages make us strong

So here we are; are we sleeping?
I could have sworn my head was spinning
Now we're running 'round in circles to no end
Can you see it?

'Cause I don't know what we're thinking
At times we're running from the truth
It seems the cycle has started again
Are we breathing? Who knows?

There's no remorse in our eyes (What's going on inside?)
In the end, it's what we're trying to find

Or have we all been divided while the struggle carries on?
In a world that's set its standards and a life worth living on
In the face of this united while the silence stands alone
The loss won't be forgotten; these new pages make us strong and carry on

This is it! This is it!
Carry on! Carry on!
This is it! This is it!
Carry on!

We must stand united; we must make it through
Now we live this life together; I know we'll make it someday soon

Or have we all been divided while the struggle carries on?
In a world that's set its standards and a life worth living on
In the face of this united while the silence stands alone
The loss won't be forgotten; these new pages make us strong

Now we've all been divided; the struggle carries on
This world has set its standards; our life's worth living on
Yeah, we've all been divided; the struggle carries on
This world has set its standards; this life's worth living on

For The Kids lyrics - Authority Zero

We were all alone

Throwing caution to the wind

Running so far from home

Facing this world, not a care

But to be hand in hand, shouting voices

Fuck the world

We'll make it on our own

And there we were

In the crowd as one

Shouting out again

Breaking out on the road

Looking back now on this life

And what the future holds

Facing this world, not a care

But to be hand in hand, shouting voices

Fuck the world

We'll make it on our own

And there we were

In the crowd as one

Shouting out again

Yeah, there we were

And we were screaming at the world again

This one's for the kids

For all those years you've left behind

For all the love and all the memories

Now clouded in our minds

This one's for you

All of the broken and abused

Born to lose

And all of those who decided not to

This one's for you

This one's for you

As time keeps passing away

I see reflections of my friends

And what life used to be

The good times that we've shared

And all those things that we swore to God

We'd never be

Yeah, we were fighting everything

Oh, how I miss those days

When we were in the crowd as one

Shouting out again

Yeah, there we were

And we were screaming at the world again

This one's for the kids

For all those years you've left behind

For all the love and all the memories

Now clouded in our minds

This one's for you

All of the broken and abused

Born to lose

And all of those who decided not to

This one's for you

We were all alone

Throwing caution to the wind

Running so far from home

But here we are

In the crowd as one

Yeah, here we are

And we're still screaming at the world

This one's for the kids

For all those years you've left behind

For all the love and all the memories

Now clouded in our minds

This one's for you

All of the broken and abused

Born to lose

And all of those who decided not to

This one's for you

This one's for you

This one's for you

This one's for you

We were all alone

Throwing caution to the wind

Running so far from home

Take Or Leave It lyrics - Authority Zero

Push off! It's time to set sail into the east!
You've been stagnant for a long, long time, it seems
Paper trails you've left along the way
Cry out for something more than where you've been

Underneath the moon and stars
Lights a path to light your way
Too many darkened nights behind
Into the sunrise, burning bright

Now there's an angel on my shoulder telling me
Forget, forgive, let live and live
Let be what will and what the hell?

And there's a devil on my back
Just saying, what's the problem?

'Cause I don't know what I'm doing here
I never saw this coming
I do believe the end is near
You can take or leave it

I didn't plan on anything
I figured I was dreaming
Another dose of my own pill
You can take or leave it

So leave or take it's all I hear you say
Give me a chance here to explain
And beg forgiveness, I don't so well
But please release me from this hell

And it gets so cold at night
I can't remember when I've slept right
Breaking out in sweats I drown
I gasp for air and choke somehow

Now there's an angel on my shoulder telling me
Forget, forgive, let live and live
Let be what will and what the hell?

And there's a devil on my back
Just saying, what's the problem?

'Cause I don't know what I'm doing here
I never saw this coming
I do believe the end is near
You can take or leave it

I didn't plan on anything
I figured I was dreaming
Another dose of my own pill
You can take or leave it

No more words, no more blame
Actions louder than you think
No more lies or sympathy
Trust in something; set it free

No more loss, no more pain
Believe in something once again
Believe in something once again

'Cause I don't know what I'm doing here
I never saw this coming
I do believe the end is near
You can take or leave it

I didn't plan on anything
I figured I was dreaming
Another dose of my own pill
You can take or leave it

You can take or leave it
Push off! It's time to set sail into the east!
You've been stagnant for a long, long time, it seems
Paper trails you've left along the way
Cry out for something more than where you've been

Underneath the moon and stars
Lights a path to light your way
Too many darkened nights behind
Into the sunrise, burning bright

Now there's an angel on my shoulder telling me
Forget, forgive, let live and live
Let be what will and what the hell?

And there's a devil on my back
Just saying, what's the problem?

'Cause I don't know what I'm doing here
I never saw this coming
I do believe the end is near
You can take or leave it

I didn't plan on anything
I figured I was dreaming
Another dose of my own pill
You can take or leave it

So leave or take it's all I hear you say
Give me a chance here to explain
And beg forgiveness, I don't so well
But please release me from this hell

And it gets so cold at night
I can't remember when I've slept right
Breaking out in sweats I drown
I gasp for air and choke somehow

Now there's an angel on my shoulder telling me
Forget, forgive, let live and live
Let be what will and what the hell?

And there's a devil on my back
Just saying, what's the problem?

'Cause I don't know what I'm doing here
I never saw this coming
I do believe the end is near
You can take or leave it

I didn't plan on anything
I figured I was dreaming
Another dose of my own pill
You can take or leave it

No more words, no more blame
Actions louder than you think
No more lies or sympathy
Trust in something; set it free

No more loss, no more pain
Believe in something once again
Believe in something once again

'Cause I don't know what I'm doing here
I never saw this coming
I do believe the end is near
You can take or leave it

I didn't plan on anything
I figured I was dreaming
Another dose of my own pill
You can take or leave it

You can take or leave it

Struggle lyrics - Authority Zero

You've got the strength
You've got the drive to steer it all
You've got the vision
You've got the mind set above and beyond
But can you take it?
Can you depend on yourself when the time comes?
You cannot fake it
It's the truth of the matter that calls you

It's that struggle
On and on bring the fire to the front lines
Listen to the sound of the battle cries
It's that struggle
Into the fire turn it up and kick the flame bright
Watch it all go this is your life
There's only one more day to go

You've got the patience
You've got the words at the tip of your tongue
You're in the belly of the beast
That of which you have slowly become
But can you take it?
Can you depend on yourself when the time comes?
Cuz you cannot fake it
It's the truth of the matter that calls you

It's that struggle
On and on bring the fire to the front lines
Listen up now this is your life
It's that struggle
Into the fire turn it up and kick the flame bright
Watch it all go before your eyes
There's only one more day to go

You've got the strength
You've got the drive yes you're steering it all
You've got the vision
Got the mind set yes above and beyond
But can you take it and depend on yourself when the time comes?
You cannot fake it
It's the truth of the matter that calls you
Tongue tied at the tip of your tongue
You're in the belly of the beast
That of which you have become
But can you take it?
Can you depend on yourself when the time comes?
Cuz you cannot fake it
It's the truth of the matter that calls you-

It's that struggle that makes it worth it in the end
It's that struggle that takes you over again and again

Lift One Up lyrics - Authority Zero

Shouting at the top of your voice to make a difference
Til you're passing out or spitting your last breath in the air
You've got a long long way until you figure it out
Back to the basics of how you got there
Tonight we're living like the end of the world is finally happening
Screaming until our voices are gone
And then we'll do it again
This is a chance to make things right
This is our chance to feel alive and shout it out

They say you're never gonna know until you give it a try
Until you give it a shot
I say that there's nothing that can slow you down
Or make you stop
Just keep it moving
And then take it to the ends of the earth
And shout it out
Until you find out what it's really worth
I figure there's only one way back in the end
You take a long hard look
And then you do it again
Tonight we're living like the end of the world has arrived
This is our chance to feel alive
Come on and shout it out

Whoah!
Give me something true
Whoa!
What's it mean to you?
This may come as a surprise
In some ways we're living the same live
And singing
Whoa!
I'll always be there for you

So now there's music in the air
That takes us to that place
Another turning point
That's brought us here face to face
So give us something that is true
And helps us understand
A voice to help us make it through
See i'm the kind of guy
That's always betting on the best
Those little moments
That you truly put yourself to the test
I'm shouting out until my voice is gone
This is it
Tonight let's feel alive
Come on and shout it out

So lift one up
To put one down
We'll keep singing these old songs our whole lives through
It's where we're found
They've touched our hearts
They've saved our lives
Through thick and thin they've been there
To help us through and reconcile
And singing

Shouting at the top of your voice to make a difference yeah
Yeah you've still got something to say
We've got a long way until we figure it out
Fighting just to break on through and make a difference yeah
Yeah you've still got something to say
You've got a long long way until you figure it out
Back to the basics of how you got there

On The Brink lyrics - Authority Zero

I'm on the brink

I just can't take anymore

I've taken one too many shots I've really fucked up the score

I'm near the edge

I think I'm losing my mind

I've taken back by insuring acts and your lies

Where do we go?

Or do we stay for a while?

Fight off the enemy and cut our losses I don't know

One thing I do

That I've been doing for days

Is look them in the eyes and spit in their fucking face

Turn it up all the way

And take me to a better place

This is the sound of your stereo, the radio

Your beating heart to the words that you already know

Everything that you want to say that you're thinking

All the thoughts that your regret for never speakin'

This is the sound of your beating heart as you watch it go

Chase tracks played back through the window

Everything you want to say that you're thinking

All those words that you regret for never speaking

Lets take a turn

To another place

A destination that you thought you knew and get away

Now back it up

You're just a little too close

I bet you never thought you'd find your destination unknown

Well face the facts

Of what's the matter at hand

You've pissed off everyone that gave a shit because you can

Well here we go

Back at the start again

Just tell me what the fuck?

What the fuck were you thinking?

Where do we go now?

Take us to a better place

Today We Heard The News lyrics - Authority Zero

Today we heard the news
That things had changed and far too soon
Tell me it's not true
It won't be the same if it's not with you
The day that the world stood still
Shock filled the air and people they knew
Nothing would be the same
All that they'd known had suddenly changed

So play on play on
Don't stop the music
Sing on sing on
Use your voice use it
Dance on dance on
Keep your feet moving
Live on live on
Through your songs and views

Sing at the top of your lungs
Sing at the top of your lungs

For today I'm coming home
Today I'm coming home
But I may not make it home

Today we saw the signs
Of people walking in these lines
Shouting out of time
Protesting what they felt was right
I took to the streets and sighed
Tears fell down as they looked to the sky
Why must we why must we even try?
If you stop believing there's no reason why

So walk on walk on
Don't stop believing
Speak on speak on
Words are deceiving
March on march on
This is the season
Carry along and give us a reason

The Tipping Point lyrics - Authority Zero

Hey you
Let's get this started
Throw up your hands
And no more standing on our own
Hey you, Hey you, Hey you
Hey you
Let's keep it moving
Let's shake things up
And recreate our destiny
Hey you, Hey you, Hey you

Who's gonna save us?
And what's the end result?
Take my word this one's on you
Yeah it's all on your shoulders
It's time to catapult
What are you gonna do?
I know you don't understand it
But yet it's happening
You're not alone

This is a wave of hope
The things I've been seeing
An epidemic that can sway your own reflection
Here comes something new
A new perception
A new direction
Something soon

And so it begins
Becoming docile
Another chance to tip the scales
And make new attempts
A chance to start again
Make amends
And make a mends
Given the context of new direction
A glimmer of hope is all we see
We're right at the threshold as we stagger
A chance to break on through
You feel it changing
The rearranging with life so out of tune

There's a way around if we keep going
I know how this plays out
At the tipping point as we look over
And hope we don't fall down
Now we're sitting at the edge here locked together
Finding out where we belong
Its the moment of our lives that lasts forever
We have a choice to sing along
For tonight we take this further
For tonight we see it through

Shakedown In Juarez lyrics - Authority Zero

It was the summer of confusion back in 2006
There was a stench on the air
Down by the border some kids
With only one thing in question
Would they make it through the night?
Or end up in a suitcase on front of El Paso Times
See times they were changing
There was violence in the streets
Down in Juarez Mexico getting rowdy off the beat
With tequila in the air and booze in our system
It was a shakedown in Juarez you couldn't have missed them

It was a shakedown in Juarez
It was a shakedown in Juarez

Rolling across the boarder around four a.m.
We should have known we had it coming when we couldn't get in
So we clipped on through the fence and slipped right past the feds
Down Avenida, Past the clubs and right on past the stench
See there was something in the air as we walked that night
On down the main strip no more lights and only devils in sight
Anyone who dares enter finds them selves in some danger
Read the cardboard box as things they only got stranger

Whistles in the night night that signaled we were alone
Up pulls a paddy wagon with 666 on the door so
Hands above our heads and backs against the wall
Out comes a knife just one excuse was needed that's all
How much for one ticket and yeah you know what I mean
How much it gonna cost to set these here gringos free?
A hundred bucks a pop and you can save your skin
It was a shakedown in Juarez or never see them again

Moving moving
Jumping jumping in the streets and
Running running
Keeping up the pace
Hoping hoping
For a brave new future
Dying dying
Like it's the only way

Shakedown yeah you'd better keep it moving

Endless Roads lyrics - Authority Zero

Here we are
Let's be on our way
Have we all lost touch?
Are we even here?
There are songs of revolution in the air
Let's drive another mile and sing another tune
Let's chase the horizon just to make it through
No more wasting away
Lets find something new
No there's no other way
As we close our eyes and say

If we take this road together
We'll be fighting out whole lives
And we'll be in for stormy weather
Making the ultimate sacrifice
But we live we love we learn and breathe
Each breath we take makes me believe
That we can take this road forever
If we take this road together

Because there's a point you pass when you already know
That you're faced with something more that's in your control
Now up and down you see the passing signs
Down these endless roads lie sleeping nights so
That could be our chance to say
To say something new
No more apologies
As we close our eyes and say

Pushing into overdrive
Another day it doesn't come too soon
Pressing on, what lies ahead?
A turning point that's redirecting you
Can you take it?
Can you make it through?
There's only one way of knowing
Only one way for sure
It's full speed ahead

This is what we're living for
Let's take this road forever

21st Century Breakout lyrics - Authority Zero

You're confined
You're contained
You've been living a lie for so long
You don't know what it means
You're controlled
You're set free
This time they're going to listen
Because you're playing for keeps
I can't believe what I'm hearing or saying
I was alive when you twisted my words
It's truly killing me in this situation
I was alive what was it really worth?

Hold me down
Speak your peace
Spit your lies
Just wait and see
Hold me down
You've got me wondering

Is anybody listening?
Can anybody see?
From where you're standing
You're looking right through me
Is anybody there?
To see what's happening
This is the day that I've been waiting for patiently
Bring on the 21st century breakout
Are you breathing?
Cause I am right now
Hold on to me
Hold on to me
Hold on to me
I'm still breathing

You're denied
You're released
This conversation has got us driving right into insanity
Let this go you confess
Come on and tell me a story
That will make this progress
I can't believe that we're stuck and replaying
And now it's fading fast
The company that we've been keeping
Is about to turn their backs

Because you know what you wanted
Chances are you shut down way too soon
So let's be honest
It's like I'm screaming at a wall
There's no reaction
Just try and remember
This is something that you can't ignore

Authority Zero (bonus track) lyrics - Authority Zero

Give me a second chance
And you take one back
Yes you take one back
There's no authority given to me
It's all for you

Why must you change your mind?
Time after time you tell me what to do
And how to do it

There's no authority in our lives
You don't like me and you I despise
The world grows bigger everyday
I'll tell you my authority stays away

You can't do this
And no you can't do that
Don't dress that way
Now take off that hat

Should I listen to you, I really seem to doubt it
And no I won't forget about it
Oh no

You toss me around
You put on my funny nose, I look like a fucking clown
Throw me up and bat me around
Jump on my side now pound me down
With authority zero, Whoa oh

Authority zero, authority zero
Authority zero...
