Track Lyrics
Sassafras Lyrics
[Intro: Mike Hranica]
This is the faith, this is the faith complex
Where all takes is another step so we can then step again
[Breakdown: Mike Hranica]
It's not all about the numbers
It is not all about the numbers
This is the faith, this is the faith complex
[Verse 1: Mike Hranica]
Try not to write another disappointing letter to integrity
Only go faster when you've stopped and thought
Only go slower when you've learned of wisdom
Everything is a question of goodwill
But we're too busy delivering answers with arrogance
Isn't it funny how one's compassion diminishes when his or her own perils rise?
[Breakdown: Mike Hranica]
Perils rise, perils rise
It's not all about the numbers
It's not all about the numbers
[Verse 2: Jeremy DePoyster & Mike Hranica]
What should we ask for?
Who should we look to if all we know is burning bridges?
Don't speak to me like I'm a stranger
Turn your thoughts to the roots
As we've all been caught up in the branches
With roots above and branches below
[Verse 3: Mike Hranica]
Don't run if you don't know your walk
This is the faith complex
Don't run if you don't know your walk
This is the faith complex
This is a memoir to friends persisting
This is the faith complex
Ben Has a Kid Lyrics
[Verse 1: Mike Hranica]
I mean this, I'm not sure if you could say the same
Week after week after week
[Verse 2: Mike Hranica]
Idolatry is wasted reverence, idolatry is the yellow on your teeth
Gasp for the truth you once lived
[Chorus: Jeremy DePoyster]
Beyond this world is what is always breathing
Beyond this world is worth dying for
Beyond this world is what is always breathing
Beyond this world is worth dying for
[Verse 3: Mike Hranica]
I remember what you used to claim, what you used to claim
You can't bury conviction with anything
[Breakdown: Mike Hranica]
Our message will grow, our message will grow
No matter the mistakes made with construction
[Chorus: Jeremy DePoyster]
Beyond this world is what is always breathing
Beyond this world is worth dying for
Beyond this world is what is always breathing
Beyond this world is worth dying for
[Verse 4: Mike Hranica]
Gasp for the truth you once lived
I pray that stolen glimpses, don't
Subtract from what we've been building
Keep stride persist in our march
Wapakalypse Lyrics
[Verse 1: Mike Hranica]
Dear tomorrow
Find some sensibility
Respond to emotion
Dear politician
Define sagacity
[Chorus: Jeremy DePoyster]
One after another
Nobody stands behind the ones they have chosen
One after another
Nobody stands behind the ones they've selected
[Breakdown: Mike Hranica]
Nobody stands behind the nation they've selected
All chances of survival are beginning to diminish
Comedy is no excuse for our own blasphemies
[Verse 2: Mike Hranica]
Mass media, mass pessimism, mass denial
My television tells me to panic, but I don't think I'll listen
The apathetic force us to persevere
The apathetic, with their backwards priorities
If only the strongest of stone was not necessary
[Chorus: Jeremy DePoyster]
One after another
Nobody stands behind the ones they have chosen
One after another
Nobody stands behind the ones they've selected
[Verse 3: Mike Hranica]
Liberation includes failure
Your rebellion is resultless
So be angry at yourself
If only we did not deserve this
[Breakdown: Mike Hranica]
Your rebellion is resultless
So be angry at yourself
