Your Life 02:40
We've been here for so long Where did you go? You said you'd stay forever You walked out the door Just wanna live my life You always tell me no Who the fuck am I? guess well never know It's your life And I'm living in it It's my life too I'm not along for the ride, girl I've got places to go I'll pack up my guitar I'll head to the show Just wanna live my life You always tell me no Who the fuck am I? guess well never know

The Virus 01:37
I'm fucking sick and tired of all this shit Spewing out of your mouth about politics Try to accept the fact Stop feigning ignorance That only helps to spread the virus Your hate filled rhetoric just keeps droning on Millions of jaded fools singing along This isn't right or left it's fucking wrong Business as usual We're divided and they're strong A bunch of faceless liars All high up on the hill They take from every corner They take more than their fill But not if you were chosen We're left to pay the bills It's time to take a stand This time we really will

A field of stones and broken bones It's all that separated us From the ones we've loved It may be true it may be false But this is your only shot so Give it all you've got These things I see cannot be true You can't keep hanging yourself While I'm hanging from you This limb gets weaker as we sway And I swear these are my last words Can't save your soul Everything I touch turns to stone Turn to stone These things I feel cannot be real They say it only takes time But I don't want to heal These cuts get deeper every day And I swear these are my last words Can't save your soul Everything touch turns to stone Turns to stone

He's Gone 03:25
Jimmy was a kid who always got straight A's in school A model citizen he followed all the rules His parents thought him right Thought him not to fight Just sit complacently and everything will be alright Your mind is not a toy Just something to employ Your body's sacred too Just do what we tell you He just kept to himself He passed through like a ghost Never had any friends 'cept Jesus Christ and both his folks One day he went away At least that's what they say Nobody knows for sure It's still a mystery He never fell in love No one was good enough They always disapproved When push you know it came to shove They threw his life away He'll never be the same and now he's gone for sure It's such a fucking shame He ran away he couldn't take it anymore Got his mind set on some distant shore Just close his eyes and then he'll be there Away from home and without a care

Out the door and to a show Pour my heart into a list of sing-alongs that nobody will know Here comet that beat again Crowd is full but I am here all alone I've got the urge again Need to feel the needle on that vinyl skin Everything fades away Takes away the pain Sing along but I can't tell you anything that's going on in here I can't take it anymore I need a fix I need some more I need those white hot lights Burning in my eyes I need to hear the gain I need to feel the pain Ringing in my ears Doing this for all these years If you think you feel the same You can't escape it Nothing else will keep you sane But these are just my words These are just my songs I'm just trying to cope man And get along till I can feel again I can't take it anymore I need a fix I need some more I need those white hot lights Burning in my eyes I need to hear the gain I need to feel the pain Ringing in my ears Doing this for all these years

about

The Barksdales Buffalo, New York

The Barksdales music takes the attitude and rebellion of traditional punk rock and blends it with raw driving guitar laden, good old fashion rock 'n' roll. They blend huge driving drums and bass with an almost obnoxious amount of rock guitar. They play fast, they play hard, and they will never do it any other way. ... more
