No support for your friends
Don't hear the meaning of what we sang
You smiled when you left us all behind
Those few nights where you came around
You might as well fold up your shirts
Stored away, in a cardboard box
Because suddenly, a mark of pride
was a relic of forgotten times
You gave us your all your swift goodbyes
To chase the things that’d never last
Let downs made up most our time
How could you call yourself a friend
I believe that we are more
than heavy beats, meaningless screams
Won't waste a breath on someone
I’ve never seen
I FEEL
THAT YOU
SHOULD GET
YOUR PRIORITIES
STRAIGHT
It's easy to just stand to the side
and act like you
have done your part
Sing-a-long to lyrics that you don't believe in
About things that were never in your heart
So go ahead, and drown your memories
In the same old bar, there's nothing else you've seen
Telling stories, ´bout all your friends who were in a band
To make yourself seem interesting.
Stay on the side line if it's best for you
We're commited through and through
Does that, make some sense
Hard work, makes a difference

The Score

I have seen this happen
So much more times than my eyes could handle
Your relationships are degraded
To nothing but a competition
You are the scar on the soul
Of so many people who had put their trust in you
You were never there with good intentions
I've seen you try so hard, you had something to prove
I wanna see your attempt to hold hearts together
And show to someone that you cared
Now sleep in the embrace of your own lies
Every single helpless night
She was dead in your arms from the very start
And you just didn't mind
And I know, if all of this was easy
The truest bonds would not price for more than gold
But if all your actions were selfishness
I will chose to respect myself and I'm respecting you
I know I don't have to do that
I hear all things you say
It was always my choice anyway
And it might not seem like such a problem
But it is to me
You were never there with good intentions
I've seen you try so hard, you had something to prove
I wanna see your attempt to hold hearts together
And show to someone that you cared
I can't lie to you
Can't lie to myself
If I don't have sincerity
What do I have?
I'll rather stay alone and look for something more
Than treat love just like a fucking scoreboard
And my decisions, they are nothing to be laughed with
And I will tell for the last time. This is my choice

Test of Time

When I was in my youngest years
I needed something I could believe
I would dig my nails into the table
When nothing you said made sense to me
I look at all the answers that it gave
And all frustrations that we exhale
As one voice in a darkened room
A memory that will never leave
Who would I've been without this
I don't have a single clue
I can only try my hardest
To keep this promise I made to you
Losing all I found in this, Is my greatest fear
But I find comfort in telling myself
I'll be here, year after year
Will we survive the test of time
Still stand by the words we spoke
Believe in what we chose to live by
Carve our existence into stone
I can't promise that nothing changes
But I know how this changed me
And I will work to keep my word
And live up to the things I say
Who would I've been without this
I don't have a single clue
I can only try my hardest
To keep this promise I made to you
Losing all I found in this, Is my greatest fear
And I hope this passion never leaves
Because I am afraid
That time will take this from me
That I hold what I love so close
That it just might choke
But You will see me holding on
Until my final finger breaks
I won't believe this is another empty love song
When I'm looking back
Will I be proud of who I was?
And the music that meant so much to me
I'll greet you with a smile and wave
We will lose our voice in unison
I am not the only one, the honest hearts are standing strong
Who would I've been without this
I don't have a single clue
I can only try my hardest
To keep this promise I made to you
Losing all I found in this, Is my greatest fear
But I find comfort in telling myself
I'll be here, year after year

Never 'Bout Effort

Everything
You said, your words they've lost all of their meaning
They've bled out from the heart you claim to carry
And what's left? What's left of all the titles gained
You carry them with so much pride
But you don't live up to them today
I'm broken by my expectations
You never really cared
I know all things come with a price
But your demands will be our end
And why do you expect
To be treated any different
Look at our scraped and bleeding knees
We dragged ourselves through the streets
Always grateful, sometimes excessive
While you were never about the effort
That's why it seems you've lost awareness
Or what it means to be a part
But that's not the way
That we can make things better
That we can make a change
So forget who you were
And start working for tomorrow
There's a blister for everything
That you can change

Your Point's Been Made

You brought in things that we were not about
Your anger directed to all of us
Now we see so many become
A reflection of the way you chose to act
And all the lines you've drawn in the sand
That made you feel like more of a man
You take up arms for causing harm
Where it does not belong
Why do I waste my time
On your stupid bullshit
We didn't come here to feel scared
And once again stay shielded
You didn't care about friendships
That you could have made
And threw away our ideals
Well your point's been made
Because throwing a trash can
Is not part of a dance
Are you trying to make me laugh
You seem so disconnected
To the place you claim that you belong
To get the air that we sing with
Kicked out of us when you come around
And how we're told to shut up
When we speak up
About how you mow down all our friends
Because I can't understand
How you took what we had
And turned it into something that revolves around yourself
Because the only one who thinks
You are cool
Is you

supported by 4 fans who also own “The Score 7"”
A standout full-length debut in what has been an incredible year for hardcore. Ecostrike play a incendiary, impassioned brand of straight edge metallic hardcore that recalls One Truth-era Strife and early Earth Crisis, but are far from being a simple retread of 90’s past. One of the year’s best releases.
