Outspoken
02:44
|

|
So much to say, but so little time.
I need to get this off my chest before I go insane.
What the hell is the matter with me?
The world around me will just not let me be.
But Everyone has plans and ideas
of what is right or wrong
But who says your ideas are better than mine
I am sick and tired of being labelled every day
Always outspoken,
I Never had the chance to cleanse my mind.
I hate this feeling, it eats away at my common sense
Somebody help me, it seems so bleak I just must
Get away and leave this place behind.
But Once again my life is turning around
The guiding light will help m e find the way
And when I find myself I will overcome
All the past pain and misery
So much to say, but so little time.
I need to get this off my chest before I go insane.
What the hell is the matter with me?
The world around me will just not let me be.
No longer outspoken, I have the chance to use my mind.
A sense of confidence, the world has opened up its door
Somebody helped me, my life has taken a drastic turn
And now I see the purpose of myself.

Captain Control
03:06
|

I look around and see the sights
Of angry faces that fear the fright
The terror so real it hunts them down
It takes away the freedom found (2X)
The beast inside, the monster within
He sharpens ideas of domination
Ignoring the cries, the desperate pleas,
The wrath has begun (2X)
Oh! Captain Control
Futuristic leader of a confused society
Oh! Captain Control
Obsessed with success, deprived of common sense
The governments agree, he is the model man
A savior of humanity, the protector of the land
He is the strength of all, the killer from above
There is no comparison
The minds of all the citizens, lost in the fray
Telling them stories of fighting to save the day
Listening to God, and all his great advice
Long live Captain Control (4X)
Oh! Captain Control
Victorious leader who overcame the enemy
Oh! Captain Control
Lost a million lives but won the battle!
ALL BOW TO CAPTAIN CONTROL (6X)

You’ll never beat me
Cause I’m too strong for you woosie
And I’ll never be ok, because of what you keep saying to me, today
Step back and try to hide
My fist will be by your side
Fuck off and die you bastard
Yeah shut up and call me master
It’s the way it’s going to be, so don’t dare try to change me, today
Adrenaline is pumpin throughout my veins
That motherfucker is driving me insane
There’s really something wrong with that guy
Everybody should say he’s a wreck
But nobody realizes that the guy is a reject
Please somebody tell me that I’m right
So don’t stand in my way, today is your judgement day
And you’ll never see it coming, this is just gonna happen
You’ve gone over the line, this is gonna be the last time
Step back and try to hide
My fist will be by your side
Fuck off and die you bastard
Yeah shut up and call me master
It’s the way it’s going to be, so don’t dare try to change me, today
Step Back (4x)

I Can't Believe

Can you help me
To figure out what is wrong with me
I’m living in a world of misery
Cause I am tired, but I cannot sleep
Cause everything is mixed up in my mind
I’m asking myself questions but there’s no response
To what is going on
Doctor, can you give me something to reduce my anxiety
I’m feeling stressed up inside and it’s driving me totally crazy
All my dreams are gone
I used to fly high but now I’m crashing down
Happiness is nowhere to be found
There’s nowhere to be found
I can’t believe that you are far away from me
Cause Without you I’m nobody
I’m all alone sitting in my chair
Looking at your picture on the wall
I’m asking you, father, can you give me strength?
So, I can move on
Father, can you me the way out of all this agony
I’m feeling so lonely without you my life is totally empty
All my dreams are gone
Since you left me, I’m feeling lost
Happiness is nowhere to be found
There’s nowhere to be found
I can’t believe that you are far away from me
Without you I’m nobody
All my dreams are gone
I used to fly high but now I’m crashing down
Happiness is nowhere to be found
There’s nowhere to be found

Irony
03:23
|

|
I Couldn’t wait to see what would become
Everything was perfect, nothing could go wrong
Great job, cute wife, well brought up kids
Life was so damn good until I realized
The worst was yet to come
You live, you die,
And everything between a bunch of lies
The world was made for me
And now I lost the key
Hope you all enjoy the irony
Superjock was always liked by all
Cheerleaders would shake their pom poms
When he carried the ball
His GPA was low, less than a great feat
Now he’s picking up cans on the side of the street
You live, you die,
And everything between a bunch of lies
The world was made for me
And now I destroyed the key
Hope you all enjoy the irony
Preacher’s daughter always said her prayers
Father always showed her off to all the loving community
One thing he did not know
Her lap dancing was a popular show
Now she’s all alone with nowhere left to go
You live, you die
And every between a bunch of lies
My world was built for me
How could this be supposedly all mine
Until the end of time
Hope you all enjoy the irony

This is What I Want
04:02

There’s a lot of things that I have put aside
My dreams, my goals, everything I wanted to be in life
But today everything will change
And nothing is going to stand in my way
Nothing is going to stand in my way
I will do what I want and nobody will stop me
I will do whatever I can to make myself happy
I don’t care if it’s wrong or right
I will make dramatic changes tonight
I want the Dramatic changes tonight
I’m tired of feeling like I’m incarcerated
I needed some air, but you wouldn’t give some to me
I’ve done everything I could but now I’m choking
So, I hope that you understand that you and me are history
You and me are history
I will do what I want and nobody will stop me
I will do anything I can to make myself happy
I’m tired of seeing black and white
I need a little bit of sunshine in my life
A bit of sunshine in my life
To all the shit I put aside
To all the shit I realize
Yeah nothing’s gonna stand in my way
Yeah ...! Keep away
I will do what I want
I will do what I can
To make myself happy
I have done my share
So, it’s time to face the reality
That me and you are history

Dishonesty

Why can’t you admit to me what I already know
Don’t waste your time on giving me a show
It’s in your eyes it’s in your smile
I can see, you got something to hide
So, you can put away your disguise
Cause I have discovered what you’re hiding inside
No…I don’t want your hypocrisy no more
No…I been through this many times before
You thought maybe I wouldn’t see
that you were playing games with me
It took me time to realize but you’re not
going to manipulate me anymore
I used to think that you were somebody special
But now the only thing I see in front of me
Is nothing but a whore
It’s in your eyes it’s in your smile
I can see that you’re stressed up inside
You acted just like a child
So, I have discovered what you’re hiding inside
No…I don’t want your dishonesty no more
No…I’ve heard them too many times before
Don’t think I’m going to forgive all of this easily
You’ve wasted 2 years of my life
So, you better, realize that it’s payback time
So, you still tell me that you are sorry
That you never wanted to have betrayed me
But I can’t accept your apologies
No, I can’t accept your apologies
No…I don’t want your dishonesty no more
No…I’m not going to tolerate any of this no more
No…I can’t even look at you anymore
So…On your way out don’t forget to close the door

Nothing in Common

Another fight what’s wrong between me and you
I tried everything so now there is nothing left to prove
Cause you don’t understand
No, you didn’t comprehend my point of view
Does it even matter to you at all
Don’t like my friends, they’re all bunch of losers to you
Is there any way to get past all these differences?
Cause you don’t want to bend
No, you didn’t even listen to what I say
Does it even bother you at all
Many times (3x), I’ve tried to push back the lies
Can’t think of anything else to help get through to you
I’m tired, I’m tired can’t sleep, just leave me be
Leave me be (2x), just fucking leave me be
I’m leaving, I’m gonna end this game between me and you
I tried everything and now there is nothing left to do
Cause you didn’t want to change
No, you never understood my point of view
There is no looking back at all
Many times (3x), I’ve tried to push back the lies
Can’t think of anything else to help get through to you
I’m tired, I’m tired can’t sleep, just leave me be
Leave me be (2x), just fucking leave me be
Cause no you didn’t want to change
You never understood my point of view
There is no looking back at all
No looking back at all

Distanced
02:23
|

|
I’d like to see myself in 20 years
I’m asking this question cause it’s not that far
I was thinking about all that while chilling with my beer
I have to put everything straight in my mind
Cause today I heard a story, that made me realize
That I am lonely but still got so much to say
It’s time to take a bite out of life and do what is right
Drain every single bad thing in my life
Cause I don’t have much time
Depressed, she can’t understand why I’m going away
From here you should of known that screaming,
Won’t ever change a fucked-up guy
I’ve been like this for all my life, you can’t change me
You cannot live with all my lies
You tell me that they you just don’t understand why
But I’ve never felt so alive
Can’t you see that we were not meant to be
Cause today I heard a story, that made me realize
That I am lonely but still got so much to say
It’s time to take a bite out of life and do what is right
Drain every single bad thing in my life
Cause I don’t have much time

Let it Go
03:20

When I think back, bout the bad old days
Scrawny kid trying to grow up in a brave new world
Was no sports jock, or honour student, just an ordinary kid
This little wimp was about to change in so many ways
We all confront the past and realize our calling
People walking the thin line between truth and make believe
The obligation to succeed just creates too many problems
Just let it go, let it go, let it go away forever.
I’ve seen so many things, and I’ve been too many places
But the situation just gets worse and never improves
What the hell is the matter with this so-called society
Justice and free speech are a figment of imagination
We all confront the past and realize our calling
People walking the thin line between truth and make believe
The obligation to succeed just creates too many problems
Just let it go, let it go, let it go away forever.
I now look at today and so much has changed
No longer a child, and not yet full grown
I still have the same thoughts and the same convictions
We are all just puppets part of their master plan.
We all confront the past and realize our calling
People walking the thin line between truth and make believe
The obligation to succeed just creates too many problems
Just let it go, let it go, let it go away forever

No Thanks

He woke up that morning with a feeling
Of happiness without the pressure of society
He finally decided to find his way to liberty
Since he’s young all he wanted was to face the outside world
Forget the wall end obstacle that makes him feel like he would fall
He said!
I don’t want your drugs anymore
I don’t want to be a fool no more
Cause I want to be somebody
And I don’t want anybody
To Take me in pity
So, no more dope now there is hope
He’s fascinated by the ecstasy of freedom
He climbed, he ran and hoisted the rope
To have an end with a successful conclusion
Since he’s young all he wanted was to face the outside world
Forget the wall end obstacle that makes him feel like he would fall
He said!
I don’t want your drugs anymore
I don’t want to be a fool no more
Cause I want to be somebody
And I don’t want anybody
To Take me in pity
There is much to say now that I am O.K
All the sweet melodies have helped me find some of my dignity
I now understand that I have hurt my family and friends
But now I’m happy to say to them
I’m not going to take those drugs anymore
Excuse me if I acted like a fool before
But I can say that I am free
And I have found my way out of all misery

Flashback
02:33

I remember when we used to talk about all our memories
I remember when you used to tell me
That we’d always be happy
I couldn’t imagine the someday it would all go away
But I was too blind at the time
I was too blind at the time, so I didn’t realize
That you were slowly saying goodbye
I couldn’t face the reality that you would go away
No, I couldn’t face the reality that you would go away…
From me
I never thought it would be so hard
To look in your eyes that night
I never thought it would be so hard
To keep a straight face that night
So many thoughts were replaying in my mixed-up mind
Cause I was too stupid at the time
I was too stupid at the time, so I didn’t realize
That you were slowly saying goodbye
I couldn’t face the reality that you would go away
No, I couldn’t face the reality that you would go away… From me
Cause I was too stupid at the time, so I didn’t realize
That you were slowly saying goodbye
I couldn’t face the reality that you would go away
No, I couldn’t face the reality that you would go away… From me
Cause I was still in love with you at the time

Stand Point Chandler, Québec
Founded by Quebec guitarist Martin Dubois and singer Jonathan Campeau in 2000, the first StandPoint lineup was active until
2006.
With fast, melodic riffs, their highly political skate punk rock style was evident from the start and solidified with the 2003 release of their album Outspoken.
In 2024, after more than 20 years, Stand Point reformed with new lineup and is preparing a second album.
