Held Hostage 03:03
lyrics
How do we know Who we can trust When the innocents are the ones handcuffed Teachers, lawyers, fascists and priests Police, politicians who are we to believe? I’ll tell you this right now I hope you’ll understand By the way things are going Everything will soon end Don’t even bother There’s nothing you can do Because everyone's fucked And it starts with me and you The truth is a lie You can see it on the TV Or turn on the radio For this false reality The worlds fucking dying Because of these conditions You better start to pray Or you’ll die for your religion Can't even walk outside without being robbed While another fucking country is next to be bombed Can't even go to school without being shot While another fucking murderer is never even caught Chorus: Born here in these numbering bar codes Our lives are packaged and sold We're all held hostage We're all going down The world is going under and taking us along So step aside and watch it die There is no giving up Survival of the fittest They just want to conquer Who can last the longest Struggling to survive This isn’t how it’s supposed to be Half the world is starving With nothing to eat Where is the answer Where is our help Where is this help in this world That wants to kill me today Chorus Watch it die So step aside and watch it die because it won’t last long.

What We Don't See 02:32
lyrics
This place you call home is full of fucking lies Keep your blindfold so tight around Can’t see it in front of your eyes Stealing millions for this business genocide While the youth is forced to sell and exploited by dollar signs President steals and kills and somehow that’s okay While the people are scapegoats digging Americas grave Chorus: News just states the problems of today War, violence, death and rape You never see anything worth a change When every day’s the fucking same Time you took your blindfold off Strive for the truth but close your eyes But how can the truth be true When it's all based on fucking lies When our backs are turned and our eyes are closed The innocent are oppressed and hanging by their ropes A lower class women and killed "by accident" But no one ever suffers any consequence Their backs are turned just like their souls They have the answers that we all need to know But it’s not what the feed us on the fucking news When it’s all based on greed and lies how can it be true Chorus Its time your take your blindfold offff

Porcelain Throne 02:07
lyrics
She was such a pretty girl but then her life grew shorter She looked in the mirror couldn’t stand what stood before her Shoved her finger down her throat puked what she ate before Another teenage girl with an eating disorder Chorus: Purge out your misery into a porcelain bowl Shut your mouth out from the food Till your body takes its toll Gets home from school locks herself with the bathroom door Tired of getting made fun of for the way she looked before She can’t take it anymore she just feels all alone She pukes after every meal her skin turns to bone Chorus She knows she needs help She knows there’s something wrong She eats herself to sleep then wakes to throw it all up She just sits back And lets it take its course Till this becomes her life and it just gets worse 90 pounds and you still think you look overweight Choking and gagging on the food you overate You just want to look like the people on TV When your life is drowned in a pool of calories This isn’t something sane You don’t have a clue You look like a skeleton What are you going to do Disease has taken your whole fucking life Gotta back down Gonna puke until you die It's not too late Take back your life

How Can We Be Safe? 03:14
lyrics
How can we be safe Turn on the news or read it in the paper The crime through the years has grown even greater A man you all trusted who would have ever suspected For killing an innocent girl yet he just got elected Schools are gunned and ready to fire Our failed health system gets our addicts higher People die left and right Buts if it’s in our countries name Then it seems to be alright Chorus: How can we be safe If every day our lives are at stake And death is in every step we make How will we be saved From all the problems that won’t go away The ones never even tried to change We're all gonna die We're all gonna die The world that we know it Is coming down When justice has right with decisions they make And innocent man is killed because he made a mistake The police are on the hunt but not to protect Another girl is raped another father is the suspect Bombs explode on your front lawn Crashing this country and killing everyone Static screens on TVs as we sit watch and listen From all the things we hear and see There’s always something missing Chorus x 2 We're all gonna die We're all gonna die

Dead To Me 03:27
lyrics
Another day goes by Another story to be told By the one I trusted the most who left me in the cold I couldn’t say I saw it coming That knife was a surprise I hope the blood stains your hands as you tell another lie Chorus: Who the fuck do you think you are You're dead to me Did you really think it would go this far You're dead to me The truth is coming out now it’s plain to see You're dead to me I don’t give a fuck about you And now you're dead to me The times for sure have changed This isn’t something new I shouldn’t have turned my back Because this is what you always do Hide behind a computer screen With the face you try to hide You can take that mask off Because you are no friend of mine Chorus Your blame your faults on me But you’re the one who’s changed You tell lie after lie I’m sick of all these games I’m tired all these excuses This is not how it’s supposed to be I'll turn my back on you Like you turned yours on me Dead, dead to me

Condemnation 03:56
lyrics
Stole your fucking house through their commercial properties Leaving you with nothing and no place to fucking sleep As the money cashes in another shopping mall is built As more businesses are created more lives are killed Stealing money and selling back to private corporations Gaining public use without any compensation When we don’t have the right to keep living in our home They have the right to condemn everything you fucking own Big business stealing millions from these private properties Just so they have more space for their corporate companies Building mall strips is the last thing that we need While so many people still have nowhere to fucking sleep Power makes profit for these greedy corporations When we're living in this condemnation Power makes profit for these greedy corporations When we're living in this condemnation Chorus: Power makes profit For these greedy corporations Power makes profit For our rich decaying nation Power makes profit When we're living In this governmental condemnation

Texas Massacre 03:37
lyrics
Blood stained on the border on this foreign Texas town A group of kids were killed and later to be found Their faces missing and stitched out from their skin His name is Leatherface and he’s back again They're all dead They're all dead Is what she tried to say Gagging on the human stench and sound of a chainsaw blade Hang them from the razors pouring salt in their wounds Ripping out your nails and eyes eating them as food Ripped through the guts Cut through the pain Live through the screams and let the blood drain Chorus: Back for us all Back from the dead His name is Leatherface and he’s back again Texas massacre Blood stains the walls of flesh and human skin Smell of rotting flesh and pieces of your friends One by one slaughtered You’re the only one left Watching your friends getting cut up Gargling in your blood and digging in human meat Shoved down your throat cutting off your arms legs and feet You fell onto your knees and then you closed your eyes As he ripped off your fucking face You became his next disguise Ripped through the guts Cut through the pain Live through the screams and let the blood drain Chorus
9.
The Patriot 04:23
lyrics
In your house you feel surveillance everywhere you turn While the line was tapped they listened on your every single word The news has the power to invade your privacy Preserving life and liberty for our national security Implemented through our minds as they research our lives How can you feel safe while watching your liberty die Chorus: Say goodbye to your secrets Say goodbye to your lives Say goodbye to your liberty Because the patriot has arrive Spying privacy suffocating through our wire-taps Libraries are the source Brainwashed through the facts Scope our name and address through improved intelligence Gathering information from their criminal evidence Sweeping through our records Surveillance caught in the act Another suspicion another warrant Another innocent person is tracked Chorus Familiar tools used against this new threat Tracked down and waged from the use of the Internet Warrants passed on every phone call that you make While the institution watches every step you take Our freedom was the problem Our privacy's what’s died Our innocence was killed through all their patriotic minds
10.
Covered In Blood 04:00
lyrics
Raise your hand in salute To the death of the youth He’s back from the war His parents are so proud now Their boy’s life is on the battle ground The smiles on their faces as they sit there and brag Their son's fighting for our flag But life was not the same or good as he thought it would be His girlfriend slept around and there’s no hope for this economy His depression sets in He doesn’t act the same The visions of war drive him insane He can’t forget the past It's built into his head The pain, horror, blood, and people’s death Chorus: Another soldier Another torment Another son who's Covered in blood Then one day when no one was home He just couldn’t take it so he picked up a gun Tears running down his face he points it to his head Counts down the seconds and screams as loud as he can He let the trigger loose his body fell onto his bed His blood stains the flag as it’s raised to honor his death His parents fold the flag He's lowered in the ground It's placed on his grave from the people who once stood proud The tears run down their faces Chorus
11.
Rebellion 01:31
lyrics
In this world a rebellion comes hard Nothing ever changes and no one goes far But we'll and fight and fight until we've won Because our rebellion has just begun This is our rebellion at its best It puts your power to the total test It's going to last and last until the day we die You can't stop us not worth a try Chorus: Rebellion sounds good Rebellion sounds great This is the war that we create Rebellion sounds good Rebellion sounds great This is our rebellion This is our rebellion so get out of our way You can’t stop us there is nothing you can say Going to fight and fight until we have won Because our rebellion has just begun Chorus

"Some Nerve rips through old school hardcore punk with a modern finish. They're not wearing gym shorts and windmilling about-- they're breaking strings and bellowing their message with both direction and aggression. This five piece takes the raw energy of their hardcore punk forefathers and pumps it through a fret-smoldering metallic sensibility, bringing a sense of dynamic musicality to their fury. The sound of Some Nerve's debut self-titled album brings to mind the glory days of early era Epitaph Records band RKL and has even been described as an "evil version" of A Wilhelm Scream/Propagandhi, but the relentless pissed off spirit is certainly all their own. This is music for punks with pervasive sore throats and bloodshot eyes, taking aim at the establishment with athletic aggression and an unquieted voice." - Dying Scene Records
