1.	Fry My Mind 02:08	lyrics	buy track
I wish a pen and paper would be enough When I am sitting here spilling out my guts I know I can't be with you, that you're not good for me I was fine before this, fuck off and let it be I thought about it all Psychoanalyzed Being quite serious I wish the silence wasn't so loud The way you looked at me Filled me up with doubt We were in different places, you were no good for me I said it once before, fuck off and let me be I thought about it all Psychoanalyzed Being quite serious I just want to fry my mind I'd rather not feel antagonized Being quite serious I just want to fry my mind Just want to fry my mind
2.	Not Today 02:34	lyrics	buy track
Never was a model child Always marched to the beat of her own drum Good days were less than shitty days Never thought she'd come this far Not Today Asked herself if what she did was okay Did he mean to look at you that way? Did he mean to put his hands up your dress? He didn't deserve your innocence, ignorant Accused of all these notions Feeling freedom is no longer the same I saw, you felt as he played Feeling freedom is no longer the same Not Today No longer the same… Fumble these struggles everyday You sit down at home, and she has bills to pay Living for work, and working to live Her American dream washed away, far away Accused of all these notions Feeling freedom is no longer the same I saw, you felt as he played Feeling freedom is no longer the same Not Today

4.	Bully 02:44	lyrics	buy track
How many lives have you taken apart? How many people fell under your petty hands? How much hatred is enough for your entertainment? Not to worry, the show must go on I think you're such a bore Because of you we lost control Trade in our pride, our goals Thanks to your greed we lost it all How many years do we put up with this shit? How many times can we say we've had enough? How many mistakes can you possibly convey? How many chances have we had to do the right things? I think you're such a bore Because of you we lost control Trade in our pride, our goals Thanks to your greed we lost it all Stare in the mirror Do you like what you see? Sit behind a keyboard, not caring who you bully Not now or not ever Will you ever change, but I will carry on I think you're such a bore Because of you we lost control Trade in our pride, our goals Thanks to your greed we lost it all
5.	Resistance 01:42	lyrics	buy track
Resistance is coming Oppression will decay We walk among the surface, time to celebrate Racism will die, relinquish your faith To put us through the tests that mere men create I cannot understand The fuckers in command America's on board like a game of chess If you're not playing clean you will be put in a trance You're part of the resistance so throw away the plan If you're feeling tired, come take my hand Divided we were once but now together we stand Drama's all I see Death seen on tv Killing mother earth, melting pot of the freed If it were up to me, I'd kill humanity Land of the living dead, melting pot of the freed They'll destroy you if they can Part of the master plan Now it's time to rise up, destroy them if we can Changes never come if we don't put them on demand You're part of the resistance so throw away the plan If you're feeling tired, come take my hand Divided we were once but now together we stand Drama's all I see Death seen on tv Killing mother earth, melting pot of the freed If it were up to me, I'd kill humanity Land of the living dead, melting pot of the freed
6.	Parasite 02:22	lyrics	buy track
The signs have spoken Parasites everywhere I see Your bones have broken At this point will they heal back again? Tearing my skin open As the feet of dirt sink into me Burn it up, burn it down Suffocate me, did I drown? These people leave me such a distaste Us trying to fit in But I'm not a puzzle you can just squeeze in I'm telling you, fuck you You fucking parasite, you can't just get it right You fucking parasite, how can you sleep at night? You fucking parasite, you don't know wrong from right How can you sleep at night, you fucking parasite All I can say is I fucking hate you Hate you 'til I die Hate whoever made you I'm telling you, I'm telling you You drive me fucking crazy At the end of it, it's me and only me Against the hazy days You fucking people leave me such a distaste Us trying to fit in But I'm not a puzzle you can just squeeze in I'm telling you, fuck you You fucking parasite, you can't just get it right You fucking parasite, how can you sleep at night? You fucking parasite, you don't know wrong from right How can you sleep at night, you fucking parasite
7.	Worst Enemy 02:40	lyrics	buy track
There's no ending in sight No hope for a better tomorrow Everything stresses me out Where's the light at the end of the tunnel? And I can't find words to tell you And yes everything sucks But once the pain is over We'll rise among the dust I know the fabric of time is fine Will we learn to open our eyes? You couldn't set me free You became the worst part of me I'm slowly sinking This human isn't me I'm not a shallow person Will you please rescue me? And I can't find words to tell you And yes everything sucks But once the pain is over We'll rise among the dust I know the fabric of time is fine Will we learn to open our eyes? You couldn't set me free You became the worst part of me I know the fabric of time is fine Will we learn to open our eyes? You couldn't set me free You became the worst part of me Watching myself turn into Who I said I wouldn't be Caught in despair, in shambles Becoming my worst enemy
8.	Hollow 02:35	lyrics	buy track
Woke up to smell the roses Anxiety came knocking This senseless deprivation This lack of motivation Turning me inside out Something that takes me nowhere Losing myself sometimes Maybe holding on too tight Drowning in your cup of water Thinking that this could make it better This is a bitter pill to swallow It leaves everything inside me so hollow Hollow Woke up to hate myself I just need medication Perpetually frustrated Always stuck feeling jaded Turning me inside out Something that takes me nowhere Losing myself sometimes I'm holding on too tight Drowning in your cup of water Thinking that this could make it better This is a bitter pill to swallow It leaves everything inside me so hollow Hollow
9.	Only Human 02:03	lyrics	buy track
Wake me up when it's over Will I get to move on? I'm not scared to say sorry for things that I have done I'm not afraid to tell you, I know when I fuck up But I'll take no excuses for the things you have done Because these demons, they always follow me I'm only human, give me a chance to breathe I'll never follow, I was put here to lead I'm only human, give me some space to breathe I just want out of this hell So high up, until I fell I just want to run fast and exit this place today I know I am a monster, I could have told you that I'm not scared to admit that I'm a fucking mess I'm not afraid to fall, I will get up again You couldn't take my worst, you will not get my best Because these demons, they always follow me I'm only human, give me a chance to breathe I'll never follow, I was put here to lead I'm only human, give me some space to breathe I just want out of this hell So high up, until I fell I just want to run fast and exit this place today
10.	Never Settle 02:34	lyrics	buy track
I'm not going to settle It keeps me up at night I toss and turn again and again The nightmare doesn't seem to end She walks through the shadows Of mistakes she's passed She'll go back to fix them from time to time But time keeps passing by Your hands aren't fragile, just drifting away They say the answer will come But you know we have to wait Time's not my friend, this lingering won't end It keeps me settled, but I just can't settle again I won't settle again You thought I was broken You tried to fix me But let me remind you when nothing is broken There's nothing to fix As I make my anthem I'll walk these broken paths Go down the road, walk through it all If I could do it again Your hands aren't fragile, just drifting away They say the answer will come But you know we have to wait Time's not my friend, this lingering won't end It keeps me settled, but I just can't settle again I won't settle again Won't settle again
11.	Pray For All 02:15	lyrics	buy track
Tune in to your radio station Hear the fight song blasting through Stay awake, sleep deprivation Bringing the war now to you There are things that are out of control Simple things that we often ignore A cry for help, a desperate soul Let's fight for us, let pray for all So many lives in danger So many kids unsafe So much money wasted On wars we can't afford to pay I see mothers crying Burying their young Innocents imprisoned Just to die for a bigger cause Tune in to your radio station Hear the fight song blasting through Stay awake, sleep deprivation Bringing the war now to you There are things that are out of control Simple things that we often ignore A cry for help, a desperate soul Let's fight for us, let pray for all Sign your life at eighteen To the ones that turn their back on you Daily veteran suicide, spiking through the roof Tax our lives day to day Everything they promise you Take the opportunity that stands in front of you
12.	Pick Your Poison 02:15	lyrics	buy track
He comes at night to eat his prey Destructive thoughts won't fade away Am I an empty shell? While someone else controls my head And I'll be here taking these victories It's a long road to who I'll become Thanks mother mercy for what you have done Programmed to follow, to fit your agenda Distractions around me, my head is all messed up Programmed to follow, to fit your agenda Distractions around me, I am the pretender Pick your poison Sell your drugs I sit behind these broken bars These pills won't do anything for me "You're born with this anxiety" You think I'm fine As far as the eyes can see Programmed to follow, to fit your agenda Distractions around me, my head is all messed up Programmed to follow, to fit your agenda Distractions around me, I am the pretender Visions, the visions The reason, the treason I sit in this prison, as I watch the seasons Visions, the visions The reason, the treason I sit in this prison, as I watch the seasons

I have listened to this album so many times since I grabbed it I'm surprised the MP3s haven't worn out! Rancid is an amazing band and this tribute is just excellent. ...And Out Come the Wolves needs no intro and neither do any of the songs on here. Real standouts for me are Sarchasm crushing "Journey to the End..", Matt Moua's soft hearted "Daly City Train" and Little Debbie & The Crusaders pounding "11th Hour". congealedmeat
