I hate the government and I hate my mind cause I don't know what's real or not as I pass over lines am I just another basket case or one of a kind or influenced by mk ultra propaganda drugs and time.....cause it seems that nothing's changed is it getting worse or do I just feel no pain no cause lions can't be tamed just ask Siegfried and Roy about the one that got away No one cares about you until after you die and then after your dead you've got true fb friends for life as politics divide our nation's circus morality but I forgot the words again so I don't know what I'm saying...but it seems that nothing's changed is it getting worse or do I just feel no pain no cause lions can't be tamed just ask Siegfried and Roy about the one that got away Oi!

Well hell no this worlds no wonder land cause fear and greed still run the land and if you don't stand up for something man you'll fall for anything but when love and pain start to feel the same it's something you gotta learn to differentiate cause when illusions like pain consume your brain delusions don't seem insane. Just like kryptonite when your so weak that you can't sleep at night I wonder where u are and if ull be all right cause heaven only knows that I'll be damned but fucking fine. And true love will never fade away denial built on lies won't change its not the same but I couldn't even help myself back then with all the voices in my brain and I know some day in time we'll learn and we can take our millionth turn as we set our sails into the wind and watch this damn world burn..just like kryptonite when ur so weak that u can't sleep tonight I wonder where you are and if you'll be alright cause heaven only knows that I'll be damned but fine..and the way I feel won't ever change no matter how far that you run away and i don't even care how damn long it fucking takes cause I know you hear me in your brain so ima play this song to help me get along cause I don't know where u are or what is going on and helplessness is a feeling no one will ever want to fucking claim

Well I don't know what's going on inside of my head or heart I guess deep down I knew it all along buy now I still feel ripped apart like I'm the king of fools whose breaking all of the rules while I'm losing every girl I've got nothing do no I got no one to screw I'm just a lonely dude chilling here and drinking some brews..because the world will try to hold you down but just keep on Cadi lackin stand the fuck back up now it's a brand new day..and yes the system it works for them cause money can walk on breaking ice but the criminal class is what they've made of us so don't get caught or your doing time and money is such a fucking bullshit thing there's millions of deaths I mourn but you better find a way to fuck the system or it'll fuck you first..cause yeah the world will try to hold you down so just keep on Cadi lackin stand the fuck back up now man it's a brand new day

I don't know why I like to sing about things nobody else believes like Robinhood and anarchy or like when love and peace meet fate, cause this world has been to hell and back so don't ask kids to stay on track when half of them will just have heart attacks or get cancer and fucking die. And no one knows why...life's to short to sort through all the bullshit lies, while propaganda steals minds...no there int no solution to our inevitable demise And maybe that's why crystal meth and heroin are better than sex cause love simply is poisonous like the delusion of fucking time. So if all that shit means nothing now then don't ask me to fucking care cause I'll probably just have an another heart attack yeah another heart attack........

Lets go Well there's so much wasted life under this sky rotting away slowly it's like a decomposing body man walk around this town with me and ill show ya and it all started when we were just fucking kids but I guess the truth is when your 13 years old you don't know shit and if the whole world is against you it's gonna be until the end..so don't you try and tell us anything you know about it cause we all grew up together on these same old dead end streets and if u see us in this city yeah you know that we'll be drinking cause there ain't fucking shit else to do in corpus Christi..but if you walk along the Oceanside at night the sky is tinted pink cause you know it don't ever seem to get dark at night here unless u fall asleep but this is our town and these are our life's so these are the songs Ill sing about another fucked up generation i thought id never fucking leave...but we made something out of nothing no because none of us had money but we knew what lives and breathes I n us will never fade away it started when we were a bunch of kids that met in the streets running from cops and smoking dope behind trains and besides getting older and hopping on well nothing much has changed....and then they try to call this the sparkling city by the sea but to me and my friends it was always more like no hoes lies drugs and broken dreams and then they try to label it some all American city but if youve lived here you'll just fucking laugh because u know it's pretty shitty

Well I'm stuck here down under a bridge between nature and society im living down by the river and I aint got nothing but my dreams from the Sacramento to the Guadalupe yeah I'm just singing about the streets with nothing but the clothes on my back and just a little bit of food to eat..and then two cardinals fly by and I know I'll be all right cause I might be down on my luck from fucking up yeah but I know that I'll survive so don't bother to ask me why for no love at all I walk the line out here all on my own again yeah closer to the day I die..so yeah so what if I sit and squat right here in this hall of dirty sprayainted concrete cause you know it's funny to me how your story changes every other week and I may have lost you baby but somehow when u stole my heart you set me free cause I picked up a guitar again and that's the only kind of love I'll ever need..and then two cardinals fly by and I know I'll be all right cause I might be down on my luck from fucking up but I know that I'll survive so don't bother to ask me why for no love at all I walk the line cause I'm living out here all on my own again closer to the fucking day I die

Well I wish I could stop driving myself crazy and forget finding the answers to things that remain unseen but locked in my own damn confusion I'm stuck in a daydream where I'm contemplating nothing again yeah nothing so what the fuck is wrong with me and what the fuck is wrong with you and the rest of our God damned society cause it seems we've all just come unglued but if u don't know why I'm talking about I don't know what I'm trying to say just seems that nothing's ever getting solved and nothing has ever fucking changed..so tell me that I'm crazy man yeah tell me I'm just insane cause that's what ive been thinking myself for all these years before today and maybe sometimes we just all lose our minds like Friedrich Nietzsche or curiosity just kills the cat nine times til there ain't no rekey. Yeah wtf is wrong with me and wtf is wrong with u and the rest of our damn society cause it seems it's all just come unglued but if you don't know what I'm talking about I don't know what I'm trying to say. Just seems like nothing's ever getting solved and nothing's ever changed

Well you know it's hard to say I lost you cause you ain't ever left my mind like a picture in my subconscious your like one of those lockets carried thru time and u know every day I'm sober well there's one less false hope I find but you know every day I'm sober baby is also one less thought that I can hide...so what am I trying to run from cause I know nothing's chasing me and what good is following the fucking law if its the system that I need cause I know your just gonna go and lead me on again at least every other year but I'm not the I one that's questioning our love no I'm the one who isn't even here and you know it's hard enough just to clear my fucking mind without these pills that help Change the fucking things that I think and u know it's hard enough just going through the time when your alone and lonely so if a hermit is what I have become at least I know there's a little peace in solitude cause if in what I am there's things that I still fucking hate won't you tell me wtf I'm supposed to do yeah what am I trying to run from cause there ain't nothing chasing me and what good is following the god damn laws if it's the system that we need cause I know your just gonna go and lead me on again at least every other year. But I'm not the one that's questioning our love no cause I'm the one who isnt even fucking here...so as time slips by I fathom a couple more lost things close to truth cause the future and the Pat well yeah they make me wonder baby if anything you ever did around me was even you and yes I know you switched planets who the fuck you think it was that switched planets with you? And that means soon that one of is leaving in a casket so u know I really wish it wasn't true. But what am I tryin to run from if there ain't nothing chasing me and what good is following a fucking law if its this bullshit system that I need cause I know ur just gonna go and lead me on again at least every other year. But I'm not the one that's questioning our love girl I'm the one who isnt even here

I grew up in a hustling town you either wise up or u get kicked when ur down but you know my dumbass fell straight for all the drugs and the bullshit ended up homeless on the run cold sleeping on the ground. And most of it I'll never remember but I still swear those were the best times of my life cause I was dropping acid with my friends almost every fucking day snorting to much cocaine and smoking whatever was in the pipe. We burned off from the Texas coast in a stolen U-Haul on the run that I took we headed west but when we finally ran out of gas we were still just deep in the heart of west Texas. Si we started flying signs and hopping trains rolling up butts on toilet seat covers sometimes not eating for days, yeah I guess it's true y'all I was so fuckin spun out that I almost forgot how starving taste..cause dogs eat dogs and men eat sheep but we are all wearing wolves clothing so if u can see it then it's not hard to explain cause the propagandas already unfolding. yeah dogs eat dogs..and men eat sheep..grew up in a hustling town you out either wise up or you get kicked to the ground you know I used to think I was above all of that bullshit but the only thing I'm still above now is the ground and it's always the bullshit you remember and not the ecstacy or what is right so to all my friends that never made it through the night just know that I'll remember every one of you for all my life. We hit LA then headed north all the way up along the cost to Bellingham started camping out somewhere in those woods I finally remembered just who the fuck I am...I'm not some junkie running dry at least most of the time I'm to busy running from the law playing a busted up guitar I got for thirty dollars scrapping copper and you know it was that music that fucking saved my soul. Cause now I'm a basket case with a mental illness that I hate to admit to but I know that it's probably true cause I just won't trade my delusions for the society illusion cause that shit to me is even more fucking wing nut to. So fuck all od you cause I don't remember and fuck you all yeah bro u know I'm paranoid to but most of all fuck our fascist government right in the fucking ass for all the social programming and drugs that we've all consumed cause if freedom rings man I will fucking hear it but until the day it'll be a pirates life for me cause I spent the last decade shipwrecked and lost in fucking hell howanh times do h think I've tried swimming away. But arizona aint no fucking island and from Texas man there's just no god damn escape. Even if I woulda made it all the way on up to Iceland extradition and exhile kind of feel the same but every fucking then and now I've just got to get away just so I can catch the fucking breath to say that I better see my po by the end of the fucking week or im gonna get locked inside of a kennel instead of a cage...cause dogs eat dogs and men eat sheep but we are all wearing wolves clothing so if u can see if well then its not hard to explain cause the propagandas already unfolding yeah dogs eat dogs... And men eat sheep. Grew up in a hustling town..u either wise up or u get kicked to the ground

U call it love I call it hopeless anarchy cause all we ever had was romantic fucking apathy instead of all the possibilities that exist in time all u can say is that I fucked up your life..so why do we always want all the things that we don't need and why do we always hold on to these dumb fucking beliefs and why do we always love the people that we know we shouldn't be with..cause were all fucking idiots And why is it we always want all the things that we don't need and why is it human nature aint based on a motherfucking thing except for greed and why is it no one will ever open up their eyes to see...that there's a million fucking people bleeding...cause I like walking down the side of the fucking street I live on I don't need much money just some food to eat and a little bit of rum. Guess I'm just happy living a little differently than you with your fucking boring 9-5 well who hates their life? So why do we always want all the things that we don't need and why do we always hold onto to fucking false beliefs and why do we always want every fucking thing..and why do we always hold on to fear and why do we always stay right fucking here and why why why are other people so weird..u think I'm mean but I think you have no right to fucking speak cause I think it seems to you my life is just unraveling and while i guess it's true im not busy planning all my traveling this drifting is what I love girl and it's not a foolish dream..and why do we always want all the things that we don't need and why do we always hold on to these fucking false beliefs and why do we always love the people that we know we shouldn't be with? Cause the whole world is hypocrites..and why do we always want every fuckin thing and why do we always say shit that's so fucking mean and why do we always fuck up everything when there's still millions of people bleeding

Why do guys like me flirt with prison when angers a cancer to a man? Why does it feel good to be a junkie, higher than the sky above the land? No I don't know no I don't know no I don't know and I don't think I ever will, this world has named me sysiphus I can't get this ball I'm chained to up a fucking hill. And I don't know why I'm always thinking cause you know the answers they never come and I don't know why I'm scared of bullets cuse u know I love playing with puns. But I swear I can't win at losing just like the man in black when he was swallowing his pills cause I was just born an outlaw baby yeah and you know I haven't got a clue no I don't know no I don't know no I don't know and i don't think I ever will this world has named me sysiphus I can't get this ball I'm chained to up the fucking hill. Well yeah I love to hate authority and do all the fucked up things I didn't realize that I wanted to do. They say I don't agree with nothing man so u know I'm not listening to you I'm just a lonely broken rebel without a cause singing out of tune I'm not the wisest wizard in the land oh hell no but what doesn't kill me makes me feel no I don't know no I don't know no I don't know and I don't think I ever will this world has named me sysiphus I can't get this ball I'm chained to up this fucking hill. It's true I ain't got much of nothing even with this guitar I'm heavy lacking skills but the frustration in my life still dreams of contentment as I lay awake at night and I realize this nightmares more rel than hectic but I guess I'll never know just why my color is black no I don't know no I don't know no I don't know and I don't think I ever will this world has named me sysiphus and I can't get this ball I'm chained to up a fucking hill

You can run from your problems but your problems are always gonna find you you can try to fight the system but the systems gonna grind you and it'll break you down til your black and blue with no fucking hope inside you so make faith your strength to carry on so even when your fucked off no your not through..cause our life's are going nowhere deaths our only future I ain't gonna lie to you but when u find a place or purpose nothing else will even be in sight to you as we face our fears and dry up our tears drink a few more beers and struggle through the years Yeah time fly's but our dreams aren't gone cause rebellions living in every song..so I'm glad you found your own self righteous sanctuary but it ain't the one that's out there for me oh hell no cause the only thing I've ever hads the only thing I'll ever need man I'm a punk rocker forever I'm a loner I'm a dweeb ...cause life's going nowhere deaths your only future I ain't gonna lie to you but if you find a place or purpose nothing else will even be inside of you as we face our fears dry up our tears drink a few more beers and struggle through the years yeah time fly's but our dreams aren't gone cause rebellions living in every song..life's going nowhere deaths your only future I ain't gonna lie to u but when u find a place or purpose nothing else will even be in sight to u as we face our fears dry away the tears drink a few more beers and struggle through the years yeah time fly's but our dreams aren't gone cause rebellion forever carries on

Well I must have a bad rap for losing all of these girls cause alone out in the cold man I'm alone in this world and my heart isn't broken cause it's just shattered apart like a fucking cyclone spiraling this shit ripped my life apart cause I thought I found an angel once her kisses were so sweet but my lifes just a demon and off my fucking soul it feeds cause yeah I wanted your love girl but I still just hate myself and i didn't ever wanna hold u down I just wanted out of this hell. So if my words could reach you now i know they'd probably do no good cause ud just ignore them yeah girl like u always would so as I sit right here and sing not a tear comes to my eye but I'll probably play and sing this shitty song til the day I fucking die cause u can't change the beat of my heart girl so no don't you even try and if loves a ring of fire then I guess it's true cause it burned me up alive and that's no lie...if u live by love your gonna die by love until u splinter and fail yeah if u live by love your gonna die by love so just splinter and fail splinter and fail splinter and fail splinter and fail..so as your heart moves on so nonchalant I'll try with strength to find a way to have the faith that it takes to carry on until I'm gone and in the grave cause out here all alone you know that I'll be married to the sea just like Lars Frederickson said on the viking; at least the solitude will give me inner peace and I cant confess that I told no lies cause were all victims to our pride but I loved you with my fucking heart and with my soul and my fucking mind and I've written all of these words at least a thousand fucking times cause my memory sucks dick and I lose shit more than even you are in my mind so it ain't my will and no it never was to count the hidden cards of fate but I still wage wars in vain by placing bets with more chips than I could ever pay so while for you good intentions might balance the scales but for me all they ever did was fucking splinter and fail thought I was born to lose but I guess I was wrong cause I've won the prize for surviving hell so ima end this song the same as the first power chords I ever played marveling at the melody of punk rock that's always fucking intertwined with Pain..yeah cause if you live by love your gonna die by love until u splinter and fail yeah live by love and die by love just splinter and fail splinter and fail splinter and fail splinter and fail splinter and fail

No I don't believe in America, no I don't believe in broken dreams, I don't believe in much of anything these days, much less in things like you and me. Cause I think it's to late to start again I think it's to late and we'd never fucking win cause there's nothing left at stake, it'd be like starting at a dead end. And nothing's changing man I'm out on my own again i pulled that needle out of my arm but I'm still here alone with it and no one can save me cause self destruction is such a selfish deed but I think I'm alright I think I'm alright I think I'm alright I think I'm just crazy..and I don't believe in any movements not even in nihilism being pointless I don't believe in the future or the past or in any fucking revolution cause I just don't believe in society and I get the feeling that they don't believe in me cause you know it's the people like them as much as the fucking people like me..and nothing's changing man I'm out on my own again i pulled the needle out of my arm but I'm still here alone with it and no one can save me cause self destruction is such a selfish deed but I think I'm alright I think I'm alright I think I'm just crazy..and nothings changing man I'm out on my own again i pulled the needle out of my arm but I'm still here alone with it and no one can save me cause self destruction is such a selfish deed but I think I'm alright I think I'm alright I think I'm just crazy

Another god damn institution but I'm seeking shelter not absolution but this world still demands that I find a solution another jaded junkie movie another punk love horror story yeah my life could be a fucking misfits production. I'm prison bound when no ones looking tho it seems I've fallen victim to prying eyes cause yes I know the road that I've been going down and yes I know it isn't worth a fucking dime but thrill seekers they seek adventure it almost seems like the pleasures worth half of the pain as a tear streaks down my face cause I just can't remember again in mid sentence wtf Im even trying to say..so I'll sing while i stare up at the stars I'd probably scream at the constellations if I could only tell them apart and I usually don't remember more than just a couple lines my veins are shot my mind is fried man I'm tired of my life veins are shot mind is fried u know I really just don't even give a fuck tonight veins are shot my mind is fried I'm sick and fucking tired of my life..and this shits over and over again cause you know I seem to give in Everytime the fucking cycle breaks had almost three years clean off the dope til I just got so fucking bored I didn't want to relate so I guess that I don't have no answers if I'm just another victim crying out in pain from diving head first straight into the bullshit that u know i refused to fucking ever see coming and so I'll scream when no ones looking but if you fucking catch me man I'll probably refrain cause I don't know wtf Im even doing and yeah I'll forget these words soon as the fucking verses change..so I'll sing while i stare up at the stars id probably scream at the constellations if I could only tell them apart and I usually don't remember more than just a couple lines my veins are shot my mind is fried man I'm tired of my life. Veins are shot my mind is fried you know I just don't really give a fuck tonight veins are shot my mind is fried I'm so sick and fucking tired of my life

No rainbows or stars above me head, and yes I love the rain man but these nights are cold as shit I don't things are ever gonna be the way that I dreamed. I'm burnt out and nothings gonna change pray to a god that's not even there because I feel insane yeah this world beat me black and blue so I dont need you..locked in my mind I'm just doing more time and I'm never getting out of here, locked in my mind I'm just doing more time and I'm never getting out of here..and these freeways weren't built for men to sleep but id other be dry than have wet socks on my fucking feet nd u know wet tobacco sure taste fucking disgusting man but at least it's fucking something cause the road to redemptions way to long wish it was only two minutes like all my shitty songs that nobody wants to fucking hear but I'ma keep playing on..locked in my mind I'm just doing more time and I'm never getting out of here, I'm locked in my mind just doing more time and I'm never getting out of here never getting out no never never getting out no I'm never never getting out of here never getting out no I'm never getting out never ever getting out of here.. I cooked my breakfast at Walmart in a sink that was right next to a dirty shitty stall and all the people who walk in on my ramen noodles just think I'm an asshole. I ran out of paper to write my song so I guess now I should stop but I think I'll just keep on making up the words as I go just like I've done all along ..locked in my mind I'm just doing more time nd I'm never getting out of here locked in my mind I'm just doing more time and I'm never getting out of here no I'm never getting out never never getting out never never getting out of here I'm never getting out never never getting out never never getting out of here
