1.	War of 84 02:19	lyrics	buy track
War of ‘84 Every channel, all you see Is virtual reality Big Brother’s watching you Documenting every move Try and fight But there’s nothing you can do There’s a camera on every street Whole world knows what you had to eat Big Brother’s closing in It’s 1984 again Try and fight But you’re never gonna win You Can’t Run. You Can’t Hide. Our Lives are Digitized War of ‘84 Now it’s time to pull the plug Addicted to another drug Big Brother’s reign will end As 1985 descends Out from under The microscopic lens credits
2.	Outta Time 03:33	lyrics	buy track
Outta Time Nobody knew a thing about me Until that 4th of July When I vanished off the face of the planet Now everybody knows me as “That Guy” Over the Mountains Under the Sky Each moment flashes by Into outerspace Outta time Hit the wire with tires on fire Then everything went Ice Cold 88 Miles per hour Where we’re going we don’t need roads Over the Mountains Under the Sky Each moment flashes by Into the future Seeing life Fast Forward and Rewind Sooner or Later Outta time Turn back the clocks Tick tock tick tock Switch on the flux A Paradox Don’t need to reverse the Earth Or slingshot around the sun Pick up the phone. Wait for the Tone Reach out and touch someone Outta time
3.	Jumped The Shark 01:41	lyrics	buy track
Jumped The Shark Futile Act. Desperation. Ruining Reputations. Took a risk. Swung and missed Sleeping with the fishes, kehd! Jumped The Shark Raised the bar. St the pace Till you fell flat on your face Yesterdays. Passed your prime Limp across the finish line. Jumped The Shark Used to kick the jukebox With Chuck Taylor high tops Now when everyone's having fun You're the first one to dial 9-1-1 Lame. Should be ashamed. Get out the game.
4.	Old Friends Die Hard 02:51	lyrics	buy track
OLD FRIENDS DIE HARD People Come and Go Sometimes they gotta leave Can’t escape the Truth And that’s What I believe Hold onto your friends And to your memories That’s what loyalty Means That’s why I tell myself, “It’s all in the Cards” And old friends will always die hard The ones that go can never come back We suffer, that’s life, and it’s a cold hard fact I got the good times locked in my mind Couldn’t forget you if I even tried It’s hard. I miss you. I always get by Our brothers, Forever You’re two of a kind They broke the mold when they made your heart This world couldn’t tear you apart Forever True from the start Old Friends Die Hard I would spill my blood for you I would stand and die for you I would hold the knife for you I would trade my life for you
