Social Circkle - I've Got Afflictions (2007)

Social Circkle - I've Got Afflictions Lyrics

1. Afflictions

I'm not going anywhere today

I'll just sit around inside

I've got a massive headache

and this pounding won't subside

I don't know what to do

I don't know what to say

I've got afflictions

and they won't go away

burned out and dried up

I've been this way for days

it's only getting worse

I can't see through the house

2. Life Crisis

indecision fills my thoughts

up in the morning and I'm totally lost

I've got to fight to make it through the day

I go to bed feeling the same way

spent years in this crisis state

I can't find nothing to motivate

I can't seem to get ahead, a piece of the pie

all I need is some piece of mind

I'm in a life crisis - caught in a rut

it's a life crisis and I'm totally stuck

I don't know where I'm going

but I'm on the wrong track

taking two steps forward

and three steps back

I don't know where I'm supposed to be

and this life crisis is killing me

and now it's got me totally trapped

I had a way out but I lost the map

this feeling is consuming my days

I've got to find a way out of this maze

I didn't hear the count or the starting gun

but by my first step, the race was won

1-2-3-4-3-2-1, now I'm right back

where I'd begun

3. Canned Response

I've had enough, heard your lies

I can't take this one more time

we've had this talk a hundred times before

there's nothing you can do for me

I've got no time for any schemes

we've had this talk a hundred before

cause everything you say is just a

canned response, canned response

every line you have is just a

canned response, canned response

your ego's getting out of hand

and I don't match up to your demands

we've had this talk a hundred times before

I'd leave you if I could

I should've got out when the getting was good

we've had this talk a hundred times before

4. I Don't Want

I don't, I don't

I don't wanna lose my life

in a car bomb blast like the ones on TV

and I don't wanna get sick from

a fallout wave from a bomb I can't see

I'm an innocent life

and I don't wanna die

but you can't deny

we live in frightening times

I don't, I don't

I don't wanna leave my houses

or walk the streets today, cause my nerves are shot

and I don't wanna ride the bus

or go downtown today, scared of a terror plot

I don't know what to say

but I know I'm not supposed to live this way

I've got to admit

that I always watch out cause I'm scared as shit

I don't know what to do

when there's targets on the heads of me and you

we've got to hide out, but there's nowhere to go

got our eyes closed, fists clenched, ready to blow

Social Circkle - Expiration Date (2011)

Social Circkle - Expiration Date Lyrics

1. No I Won't

I don't buy a word of the line you're trying to sell

you care for no one except yourselves

you smile and lie

want me to die

ask if I'll go for you to a foreign land

just take my life and place it into your hands

no I won't

don't try and tell me

this is how my life should end

defending oil for some rich old men

you'll never get me to see

that dying is being all I can be

it's nothing that I want

I won't play into your hands

and I won't have any part of your plans

for power and fame

through terror and pain

and you want a life to put on the line

risk your own not mine

2. Objector

from your world I'll turn away to keep from going mad

this time I know I'll be alone like a dream that I once had

I'm an objector, objector

out of the daily battles

and into a different zone
objector, objector

I seen too much can't just close my eyes

uncertain future I'm not sure if we'll survive

I'm an objector, objector

out of the daily battles

and now I'm going home

objector, objector

your greed and hate

your dirty lies

won't give in, I'm gonna try

made a choice to stand aside

I've seen enough

I know too much

I'm the objector, objector

out of the daily battles

and into a different zone
objector, objector

3. Expiration

needed more time than we could give
expiration

a few more years another life to live
expiration

now I've got a chill down to the core

low down feeling like never before

collect your thoughts and say goodbye

no easy answers to the questions "why?"
no easy answers to the questions "why?"

when you go what will you leave behind?

what did you stand for? what did you sacrifice?

don't be a fake, don't be a liar

what will they say when you expire?

what will they say when you expire?

4. Security Force

I'm in a private army we are the police

following our orders to patrol the streets

we're locked and loaded ready for the fight

preparing for the final charge I know tonight's our night

security force - coming after you

security force - we'll fight and never lose

I got no conscience so to me it's all the same

just another trooper in a city gone insane

everyone is joining up enlisting for the thrill

getting off on violence maybe a chance to kill

because there ain't no jury and you know there ain't no trial

you better watch yourself the force is running wild

security force - coming after you

security force - we'll fight and never lose

I got no conscience I'm just following commands

we'll go to any length to protect the state's demands

5. Up the Ladder

I am an obstacle I'm standing in your way

you need me in a stalemate in this vicious game you always play

I'm down, you're up you're always in control

you've been dancing with the devil made a deal to sell your soul

walk all over me

talk behind my back

up the ladder

climbing higher can't look back

I know what you're doing you're living in a dream

I know what you're thinking that it isn't just a fucking scheme

so now you stand on higher ground while those around you sink

and I know that you don't care when you ask me what I think

walk all over me

talk behind my back

climbing up the ladder

never break your devil's pact
