Karate In the Pits
Yes this sound is abrasive
Still we crank the volume up
We hear the past and can't help
Losing ourselves to the sound
The songs we all grew up with
Aren't on the radio
They took us on a journey
From highest high to lowest low
Can't hear our songs on the radio
We come alive at the metal shows
We freak out as the tension builds
But nothing beats getting to breakdown
Kick off the riff
Momentum shifts
The intensity of the crowd
Throwing a fit
Jumping in the pit
Til we hit the ground
These songs that gave us solace
Picked us up when we were down
Screaming out these shit emotions
Knowing we are not alone
We'd pick our favorite station
Find a song and let everything go
Turn it up til the dial was maxed out
Tear it down til the speakers blow
Can't hear our songs on the radio
We come alive at the metal shows
We freak out as the tension builds
But nothing beats getting to breakdown
Kick off the riff
Momentum shifts
The intensity of the crowd
Throwing a fit
Jumping in the pit
Til we hit the ground
Take me back to the Halcyon days
When everybody always let the radio play
Every single channel there was nothin' but hits
Every fucking show there was karate in the pits
Come on
Can't hear our songs on the radio
We come alive at the metal shows
We freak out as the tension builds
But nothing beats getting to breakdown
Kick off the riff
Momentum shifts
The intensity of the crowd
Throwing a fit
Jumping in the pit
Til we hit the ground
Can't hear our songs on the radio
We come alive at the metal shows
We freak out as the tension builds
But nothing beats getting to breakdown
Kick off the riff
Momentum shifts
The intensity of the crowd
Throwing a fit
Jumping in the pit
Til we hit the ground
Still we crank the volume up
We hear the past and can't help
Losing ourselves to the sound
The songs we all grew up with
Aren't on the radio
They took us on a journey
From highest high to lowest low
Can't hear our songs on the radio
We come alive at the metal shows
We freak out as the tension builds
But nothing beats getting to breakdown
Kick off the riff
Momentum shifts
The intensity of the crowd
Throwing a fit
Jumping in the pit
Til we hit the ground
These songs that gave us solace
Picked us up when we were down
Screaming out these shit emotions
Knowing we are not alone
We'd pick our favorite station
Find a song and let everything go
Turn it up til the dial was maxed out
Tear it down til the speakers blow
Can't hear our songs on the radio
We come alive at the metal shows
We freak out as the tension builds
But nothing beats getting to breakdown
Kick off the riff
Momentum shifts
The intensity of the crowd
Throwing a fit
Jumping in the pit
Til we hit the ground
Take me back to the Halcyon days
When everybody always let the radio play
Every single channel there was nothin' but hits
Every fucking show there was karate in the pits
Come on
Can't hear our songs on the radio
We come alive at the metal shows
We freak out as the tension builds
But nothing beats getting to breakdown
Kick off the riff
Momentum shifts
The intensity of the crowd
Throwing a fit
Jumping in the pit
Til we hit the ground
Can't hear our songs on the radio
We come alive at the metal shows
We freak out as the tension builds
But nothing beats getting to breakdown
Kick off the riff
Momentum shifts
The intensity of the crowd
Throwing a fit
Jumping in the pit
Til we hit the ground
