Snake Oil 03:37
They peddle dreams to the uninformed A blink of an eye and the heart is torn Money and trust have parted ways They'll drain the life right out of you There's really nothing you can do If you take whatever they feed you Might be best not to keep it down Just when you think they need you Their hands in your pocket and they're skipping town A sleazy smile and a beckoning call The likes of which will end us all Hope and faith have parted ways They'll choke the life right out of you There's really nothing you can do If you take whatever they feed you Might be best not to keep it down Just when you think they need you Their hands in your pocket and they're skipping town There's a sucker born every minute...which one are you? Don't....blink....you're on your own Don't....blink....you're on your own Don't....blink....you're on your own Don't....blink....you're on your own If you take whatever they feed you Might be best not to keep it down You think they really need you? Oh, come on... If you take whatever they feed you Might be best not to keep it down Just when you think they need you Their hands in your pocket and they're skipping town You're on your own, you're on your own You're on your own, you're on your own

Seems like forever Since we'd seen a ray of light Sing the praises of our strength We've proven together We won't go down without a fight So sing the praises of our strength [I'll keep my eyes on the sunrise] When it becomes too much to breathe When it brings you to your knees When you're begging to be free I know that life is war sometimes We live in the shadows But there is no shadow without light Sing the praises of your strength Our time is coming When we no longer have to fight So sing the praises of your strength [Keep your eyes on the sunrise] When it becomes too much to breathe When it brings you to your knees When you're begging to be free I know that life is hell... Into the unknown fray There's always something else to fear But I'm still holding strong Shouting 'I'm still here' Into the unknown fray There's always something else to fear But I'm still holding strong Screaming 'I'm still here!' When it becomes too much to breathe When it brings you to your knees When you're begging to be free I know that life is war sometimes

Hands in the air if you’re living, not existing! Some take comfort in never knowing Others simply can’t accept this Hands in the air if you’re living, not existing Open their eyes and show them what they’re missing Hands in the air if you’re living, not existing Open their eyes and show them what they’re missing Some take pleasure in never trying Fear of failure, overwhelming Hands in the air if you’re living, not existing Open their eyes and show them what they’re missing Hands in the air if you’re living, not existing Open their eyes and show them what they’re missing If I’m wrong, prove me wrong If I’m wrong, prove me wrong If I’m wrong, prove me wrong If I’m wrong, prove me wrong Prove...Me...Wrong Hands in the air if you’re living, not existing Open their eyes and show them what they’re missing Hands in the air if you’re living, not existing Open their eyes and show them what they’re missing Hands in the air if you’re living, not existing Open their eyes and show them what they’re missing Hands in the air if you’re living, not existing Open their eyes and show them what they’re missing

You're just a memory That bears deleting from my existence It's just too late for me And now you're begging for my repentance The wants and the needs that you feed are your own You have what you want and yet you're all alone I’m gonna purge you from my mind (You’re drifting away) Your image fades behind my eyes (You’re drifting away) I thought I was better than this You've lowered me to a place I should not exist We should both have a better life But you're here just twisting the knife The wants and the needs that you feed are your own You have what you want and yet you're alone True intentions are bleeding through The only one you've ever cared about Is you I’m gonna purge you from my mind (You’re drifting away) Your image fades behind my eyes (You’re drifting away) I’m gonna get this off my chest (You’re drifting away) Until there’s finally nothing left I'm gonna purge you from my mind... I’m gonna purge you from my mind (You’re drifting away) Your image fades behind my eyes (You’re drifting away) I’m gonna get this off my chest (You’re drifting away) Until there’s finally nothing left

Second chances Rare enough alone, even more so now, like this A broken promise Destroying all the trust I've earned... Everybody makes mistakes But everything's still out of place One thing still rings true to me I'm not the man that I know I'm supposed to be No one ever wants to go through this alone So many things for which I should atone Endless patience Even angels have their limits with us all Begged Hoping one day we all recover... And everyone still makes mistakes Yet everything's still out of place I hope that they finally see I'm trying to be the man I was meant to be No one ever wants to go through this alone So many things for which I should atone I never meant to place this life on you So...when will I break through?

Oh, how things change Oh, how things change I was waiting for it Waiting on that moment When nothing was ever good enough I am getting pulled in Opposite directions Nothing's ever good enough I keep drowning out the screams Everything that I once knew is gone Nightmares turn into a dream But only when I close my eyes Heavy are the shoulders That we place the blame on When nothing's ever good enough I keep trying to find some Solid ground to stand on Nothing's ever good enough I keep drowning out the screams Everything that I once knew is gone Nightmares turn into a dream But only when I close my eyes Breathe in, breathe out It's all that I can do To stand on solid ground Breathe in, breathe out It's all that I can do To stand on solid ground I keep drowning out the screams Everything that I once knew is gone Nightmares turn into a dream But even when I close my eyes... They fall They fall, one at a time They fall, one at a time They fall, one at a time They fall, one at a time They fall

You're Gone 03:53
You may not even know it yet I've been, tracking you for miles You think I won't catch up to you That's fine, all I've got is time... Cause all that we know, all that we know Is one way or another, you're gone All that we know, all that we know One way or another, you're gone I'll put the fear of God in you I can smell it in your bones How do you think it's gonna feel Crawling, on your knees alone Your blood, leads me right to you I promise I will not be kind You know, just how far I've come When all I've got left is time... Cause all that we know, all that we know Is one way or another, you're gone All that we know, all that we know One way or another, you're gone I won't make it quick It's not mine to take You've got a lot to lose I know you're gonna break Cause all that we know, all that we know Is one way or another, you're gone All that we know, all that we know One way or another, you're gone You're gone

Dysphagia 03:37
Everybody's got their demons, But yours seem to shadow the rest They shadow the rest You seem to think that you're a savior But it's not over yet It's not over yet You're on the wrong side The writing's on the wall Pride comes before the fall You will see your demise You're on the wrong side I will watch you fall Yes I will watch you as you fall I will see your demise come true Unraveled thread, But what did you expect? Silver tongues still tarnish in the sunlight I still shine through, With your hands around my neck It's not hard to see that You're on the wrong side The writing's on the wall Pride comes before the fall You will see your demise You're on the wrong side I will watch you fall Yes I will watch you as you fall I will see your demise come true Chemical cannibal, demagogue with thinly veiled motives Chemical cannibal, a demagogue with no remorse You're on the wrong side The writing's on the wall Pride comes before the fall You will see your demise You're on the wrong side I will watch you fall Yes I will watch you as you fall I will see your demise… Everybody's got their demons, But yours seem to shadow the rest They shadow the rest You seem to think that you're a savior But it's not over yet It's not over yet Chemical cannibal, you're a demagogue with thinly veiled motives Chemical cannibal, a demagogue with no remorse

It all begins with a single seed of doubt Perpetuating growth, until it turns us inside out Shadows grasping hold, and pulling further down Taking nearly everything to turn it all around Forged in flames is what we are Tempered by the wounds and scars We’re different now No looking back on yesterday The siege continues The battle’s not yet lost No risk for no reward Effort far exceeds the cost Shadows grasping hold, and pulling further down Taking nearly everything to turn it all around Forged in flames is what we are Tempered by the wounds and scars We’re different now No looking back on yesterday No looking back Forged in flames is what we are Tempered by the wounds and scars We’re different now No looking back on yesterday

Rise 03:20
Here we go! Geared up, let’s go, they’re closing in fast With the speed of a thousand atomic blasts They’ll try to take this world from us Not gonna happen, because We rise, never backing down from a fight We fall, but only after finding the light We’ll rise again just to take it all 10 million volts running through our veins The enemy thinks that it’s a game They’ll never take it away because They’ve underestimated us We rise, never backing down from a fight We fall, but only after finding the light We’ll rise again just to take it all Rise, Rise………. We rise, never backing down from a fight We fall, but only after finding the light We’ll rise again just to take it all Gonna take it all Rise

Drown 03:37
Every lie salts the wound a little further Even though I know you're trying to help And the best way that you can help at this point in time Is just for you to say goodbye With nothing to hold onto I'm sinking further down Every fiber of my being knows that I will drown The waves are unrelenting And I can’t hear a sound Every fiber of my being knows that I will drown Late one night a dream awoke me When I thought I'd already gone A small light caught my eye at the bottom of the hill And something told me that I'm not quite done That small light that kept me going Eight some-odd years ago today All that's left for me to do at this point in time Is to gather the courage to say With nothing to hold onto I'm sinking further down Every fiber of my being knows that I won’t drown The waves are unrelenting But then again so am I As I climb a little further I can feel the sky With nothing to hold onto I'm sinking further down Every fiber of my being knows that I won’t drown

Still Alive 04:17
I've seen the end in the beginning Something hard to miss A new beginning in the ending The day that didn't exist... Hands just won't stop shaking Cold sweat permeating And I can't seem to get a grip on anything I feel my life draining, The blood inside me staining And I can't make this feeling go away I'll keep holding on, until it's gone... I stand alone, wondering if I'll survive, Will I survive this? All unknown, watching as the worlds collide, And I…...I’m still alive The taste is so distinctive Atropa Belladonna If I succumb tonight there is no turning back Fragmented physiology I cannot find nirvana A glimmer of hope, when the skies are turning black I'll keep holding on, until it's gone... I stand alone, wondering if I'll survive, Will I survive this? All unknown, watching as the worlds collide, And I……….I’m still alive' I'll keep holding on, until it's gone... I stand alone, wondering if I'll survive, Will I survive this? All unknown, watching as the worlds collide, The day that didn't exist...

about

Something Clever Band Charlotte, North Carolina

Hard rock is in need of a duo like White Stripes or Twenty One Pilots, and
Something Clever’s Adam Nelson and Kelly Flusk are poised to claim that spot. Shouting
an overall theme of endurance through hardships and finding purpose through
victory has proven to be a successful message.
