1. 1:01 I laughed out loud
Cuz you walked right passed me now
you didnt care or wave back
At me and your friend was
Staring me down
I got so sick of being stepped on
now I'm doing fine
Because I got away
From feelin kind
Sometimes I just get so angry
For no reason when you say
That you are happy and successful
And I'm just lying to pass the time
Did you give a shit about me
When I lost my mind
Or were you making fun
Of me behind
Behind my back
I shouldn't care
All the people laugh and stare
They are all obsessed
With my brain
I'm not insane
Take a shot to kill the pain
Just like you
Ive got no welcome mat
But I don't burn my bridges
Cmon dude... fuck that

Just a week ago I kissed you goodbye
I didn't know it would be for the very last time
cant see you anymore, and I feel the lonely cold
again his fingers run up and down and
you scream
and i cry .
I dont even know why,
I couldn't even go to sleep if i wanted to.
I think im losing my mind,
i think youre one of a kind...
Are you alive?
I'm breathing but i feel dead inside.
please give gimme more space I'm on a wicked pace.
I won't change and I haven't given up yet
so tie me up to a post
and beat me senseless til blood is let.
I haven't heard from you yet
you sent me on my way when the things were looking gray
if i told you then before it was too late on the phone
that the time has come and gone so here I'm on my own.
I think youre one of a kind, and now its trouble i find, yeah
Too Soon?
Said Who?
That was me?
It couldn't be...

I hate myself again
Why do I always lose all my friends?
I guess this is the end
I just wanted something real and not pretend
I guess you say I'm just a fool
I'm not another useless tool
You think you can tell me who I am
But I know I don't give a damn
I was raised to be
Not this guy you see
This is just a result of
All the things I did
No longer a kid
Just some average kind dumb peaceful adult
I'm out of luck tonight
Don't have drugs to make me feel alright
I'm scared of makin plans
Fear of failure's what my brain demands
Its so hard to feel okay
I disrespect and disobey
Every law they try to pass
This empire can kiss my ass
We are fighting for
Just a little more
Than you're wanting to see
We might disagree
On the subject but
At least I don't have a shred of hate in my
Heart Attack I'm gonna look back
On the way it was back then (and not how it is)
Its a poison for your soul and a
Lack of self control and its
Gonna drag you down to hell
Believe it or not this is
What you got and you are
Not gonna like the truth
You spit another line
And then they snort another line
they are wasting up all of their youth
Beauty in life is all around us but theres
A wicked vicious nightmare creeping outta the closet
A Twoheaded beast playing a fucked up game
We're in a battle and a struggle but for them its for the fame

Flashback

1 - Sitting in the traffic is driving me insane - I drag myself to work again I need to kill the pain
All this mental traffic is murdering my brain- I can't find a solution and its clogging up the lanes
Feeling like a kid in here - I'm full of sweat and dripping fear - From all the hatred spewing around - lost in a daze I can't be found
I'm flying down the highway - I'm starting straight ahead - My vision isn't lost but
I'm feeling pretty dead
My radio is blaring - A Bad Religion song - Pumps into me an exlixir
Keeps my mind and body strong
I wonder what its like to be - A boring simple man - To feel like you don't need to be
All that you possibly can
1
Gotta just make it through this - Tired phase - Because I never sleep much anymore these days
Gotta just keep on fighting - Through the pain - Kill the depression with a hit - of mary jane
2 Then it all just seems to come back to me - Like a flashback to 2013
All these nightmares won't go away - Its better to stay awake
Another dream - Failing at a scheme - Bad at saving money - barely scraping up the green
I hate this place - Pacific rhythms are the best - the cold is bitter winters - aren't so bad out in the west
Let the caffeine take ahold of me - You can't get sad when the - coffee won't let you
Chemical dependency isn't so bad when its better than being bummed
1
Get up on out of here is - What I need
Make a change of scenery to - Clear the dread
Gotta just keep on thinking - Positive
Because its easy to get Stuck inside your head
2
Chug a pot - Its all youve got to
Win this day
Keep alive - Don't let it fall - a part
You can do - whatever you want - when the clouds are grey
Your suffering will stop killing you - today
---
No I can't stop the flashback
Please just stop this flashback
Repetitions a fuckin bitchslap
Memories like this they just won't go
AWAY
Won't go away
And it all just seems to come back to me
Like a flashback to 2013
All these nightmares won't go away
Its better to stay awake yeah
Awake yeah
Its the same old shit
I'm sick of it

Stuck Up
03:21

Daydreaming of a world without indoctrination
Stuck in a daze with never ending stimulation
I can see the fires burning all across the nation
So many years I'm working without a vacation
I am not sure
We won't
blow it today theres
Absolutely no
Reason to delay
So I walked outside
And I found the truth
There wasn't anything
Under that roof
I didn't know myself
Until I found you
Then I knew right then
That we were fireproof
Will you please tell me that your fine
I'm sick of worrying all the time
Theres a pretty good chance
That I'm a step away from cracking up
These monsters telling people how they should
Live their life I wish they'd shut up
There is no perspective and there isn't
Any reference
If you live in the suburbs from day 1
You won't have any common sense
Can we stop them
From forcing us to pray
Dealing ultimatums
Like theres no other way
Can we turn around
We need to fix this mess
I'm getting sick and tired
Under all this stress
If we slip and fall
And the world burns down
It won't matter then
With the love we found
Its really easy to believe
In something that you'll never see
These problems are
All intertwined
The imbalance
Will make you blind
To reality
It'll set you free
When you just let go
Of the things you don't need
Well I'm well aware
You think that I don't care
And it might be true
But I don't need to swear
An allegiance to
Your school of thought
I'll never put my faith
Into a broken rotten
Steaming pile of shit outdated
Generating hate inflated
Egotistic aggravated

Wake up everyday I chug some listerine, I'm so mean (to myself)
well I'm pickin it up and pickin it up and I drop it on the scene
its not clean
its the pills and Mr. Pibb are pushin me, so dirty
my brain is full of shit and my ass is totally clean, too keen
I guess it makes sense just to go by
and walk around the town like I'm in the sky
Nothing can hold me down, no, not anymore
Filling up the tank just to drive to work
I'm hanging out by myself and I'm a jerk
Whats keeping me down is not a mystery
We are all the same
I'm pissing on my shame
Cuz I don't care anymore
Stop your arrogance
your a misogynist
and I'm for equality
the message gets too strong
You will hate me for this song
I sit and wonder why
I used to be such a nice guy
Right back here where I started all over again , in 10
Gotta get out fast because I'm tired of living pretend, this den
I'm held inside a prison and its feeling like I'm stuck, no luck
It was working for a while but now It seems like I am fucked I got chucked
the crux of the moment wasting the time
Looking out the window while I'm yelling inside
No one can hear you scream internally
JUST GO
Take a car drive a van do whatever you can
Your not a dumb white trash American
You can make this work just stop the bullshit show
We are all the same
Playing video games
cus we are all dead inside
Stop with your nonsense
you're being racist
and I'm for equality
I refuse to sing along
To a boring happy poppy song
Radio friendly disease
Brainwashing ignorance so
Scream everything you hear
into a biased politicians ear
you will never take it from me
Because I set myself
Free from all the
Lies and deciept
Dwelling on
Unecessary
Get rid of this
sarcasm
Or am I just
trying way too hard.
We are all the same
I don't care for fame
This is all clear to me
Superiority
Lets curb authority
The system is broke and I
cannot sleep
swallowed by apathy
endless stimulation
living in anarchy

Its 5am and she knows she has to wake up
Alarm clock reminder that the degree wasn't quite enough
Gotta seize the day
Theres no other way
You need to have the money for
That damn rent you have to pay
No one is going to help her
There is no escape from the bad
Thoughts inside her head
Its torture
Repeating all the mistakes
what a tragedy our culture makes
Its 5pm and shes makin dinner for the kids
They don't know why they're eating mac and cheese instead of ribs
Forgetting all of the pain
With a bottle of wine
Won't be reading lullabies to them there is no time
No one is going to save her
She doesn't need some hero
Though the thought is
Nice he couldn't
Stay to be a kind caring dad
It was an empty love they had
All I ask is
Save yourself from total self destruction
Do what you need to maintain your main function
No matter what I say
its probably too late
to take it easy
please just play it safe

Hanging out at Quenchers I got nowhere else to go
Sitting at the bar in the middle of Chicago
Never thought I'd even see myself in here again
A band is playing grunge and I am drifitng off
Do they
Even know who I am
Should I
Care or try to get to know them
Phones at 2% now I've got a healthy buzz
Do a shot of jack then no more alcohol because
I got 20 bucks left and I've had enough drink
I need to have a moment I can't hear myself think
its
So damn hard to have a good time
When the whiskey mixes with wine
I will carry this pain with me
I was scared and I was angry
Doesn't make much sense to hide this
You were there to be my comfort ing
Back in the motel I took a shower in the dark
We got up drove around and headed to some skater park
The memories come flashing back to me a movie scene
They told me I was ill and my behavior was obscene
its
High time for some
meditation
With
self prescribed medi cation
I don't need it
I don't want it
Take it from me
I'm fine without it
Locked inside of a cage
I don't even know my own age
I will carry this pain with me
I was scared and I was angry
Doesn't make much sense to hide this
You were there to be my comfort
There will always be tomorrow
We can breathe and feel no sorrow
Where you go it doesn't matter that
that you were once a big disaster
Yeah I know how it feels to be all alone
In a dark cold place where you can't even call it home
It isn't easy to swallow our reality
So fuck that shit and have another drink with me
