From Autumn To Ashes - "Take Her To The Music Store"

In late Winter/Early Spring of 2007 I made the move to Toronto. Uprooted my life and moved in with a close friend of mine Jonny HP. We were both at a significant crossroad in our lives. We were glad to have someone to keep company with. Have a few drinks at the end of the day. Most of the time those nights were filled with music. Me sharing songs with him. Him sharing songs with me. I'm sure we did so much more during those days, but it's the nights of listening to music and talking until midnight that stick with me the most. Those songs always bring back memories from those years. This is one of those songs.

Bad Religion - "Punk Rock Song"

This is one of those songs that has been in my collection for years, but I don't know if i've sat and actually listen to it. Absorb it, until lately. Jesus, the lyrics are more meaningful now than ever...

Have you been to the desert? Have you walked with the dead?
There's a hundred thousand children being killed for their bread
And the figures don't lie, they speak of human disease
But we do what we want, and we think what we please

Have you lived the experience? Have you witnessed the plague?
People making babies sometimes just to escape
In this land of competition, the compassion is gone
Yeah, we ignore the needy, and we keep pushing on
Keep pushing on

This is just a punk rock song
Written for the people who can see something's wrong
Like ants in a colony, we do our share
But there's so many other fucking insects out there
And this is just a punk rock song

Have you visited the quagmire? Have you swam in the shit?
The party convention and the real politik
The face is always different, the rhetoric the same
But we swallow it all, and we'll see nothing change
Nothing has changed

This is just a punk rock song
Written for the people who can see something's wrong
Like workers in a factory, we do our share
But there's so many other fuckin' robots out there
And this is just a punk rock song

10 million dollars on a losing campaign
20 million starving and writhing in pain
Big strong people unwilling to give
Small in vision and perspective

One in five kids below the poverty line
One population running out of time
Running out of time

This is just a punk rock song
Written for the people who can see something's wrong
Like ants in a colony, we do our share
But there's so many other fucking insects out there
And this is just a punk rock song

The figures don't lie, they speak of human disease
But we do what we want and we think what we please
One in five kids below the poverty line
One population running out of time

This is just a punk rock song
