i did my best to sort it out
deep within my brain
but all I found was brick and mortar, vomit on the window pane
unbridled rage and unpaid bills and things to second guess
i'm casted out to mainline with genuine distress
and she said to me, that you’re trash like me
and she said to me, but through gritted teeth

i don’t understand
what goes on in your brain
i don’t think you’re crazy
but your thoughts are insane
no I’m right
yeah you’re wrong
no I’m right
i’m confidently incorrect
you don’t need to explain
just give me a break
i could agree with you
but that would be a mistake
no I’m right
yeah you’re wrong
no I’m right
i’m confidently incorrect
(x2)
hold on now
you can’t be serious
if you think that
you’re just delirious
it’s not quite
that mysterious
i’m right you’re wrong
that’s all that’s to it
(x2)
no I’m right

wake up surprise its a brand new day
sun is out but the sky is grey
routine’s moved in and here to stay
there’s got to be a better way
slow down slow down
you're doing fine
don't rush don't rush
you still got time
(x2)
think its time lets get on a cruise tonight
still only getting 39
breathe in breathe out all away your spite
if you take some time you’ll get it right
slow down slow down
you're doing fine
don't rush don't rush
you still got time

the air was crisp on amnesia beach
pursed lips stained, BRIGHT HAIR BLEACHED
i can heed you something true
a perfect sermon just for you
life is not laughs and love
it's adherence and money you're thinking of
my litigious friends can make you whole
and gift you back the world they stole
tell my mom that i'm okay
i didn't need her anyway
bitchin' robes made of the finest silk
to canonize the world we built
on this earth beyond space and time
only we can see it, check the dotted line
the pope is a lizard, the president's an asp
we all plan to leave this earth with ONE COLLECTIVE GASP
life is not laughs and love
it's adherence and money you're thinking of
my litigious friends can make you whole
and gift you back the world they stole
i don't have the proof, but i know it in my heart
they all should have listened to me from the very start
i've always had a yearning for attention and fame
prepare to sever earthly bonds with nothing to our name
gaslight me, feed me lies
i can reach nirvana just launch me in the sky
we can take you with us, but not without a price
let's achieve inner peace with cyanide and ice
uncomfortable in your own skin
none of your own to call your kin?
get in line, fill your cup, grin and bear it you're next up
this is not a scam

all-star at carrying a cross
always burdened by a loss
champion of complaining a lot
being happy never was a thought
nobodys got it worse than you
thats the only thing you know is true
if they think they have it hard
they should try a day living in your shoes
you won the gold (you won the gold)
you won the gold (you won the gold)
congratulations it really sucks to be you
you won the gold (you won the gold)
you won the gold (you won the gold)
congratulations it sucks to be you
the MVP of having it worse
than even that guy in a hearse
reigning king of suffering
never content with anything
cause nobody’s got it worse than you
thats the only thing you know is true
if they think they’ve got it hard
they should try a day living in your shoes
you won the gold (you won the gold)
you won the gold (you won the gold)
congratulations it really sucks to be you
you won the gold (you won the gold)
you won the gold (you won the gold)
congratulations it sucks to be you

is this some kind of joke?
my camel’s back just broke
not a straw of sincerity
like you’re allergic to honesty
brush your teeth, your voice stinks
you’ve got a little truth decay
silver tongue, and lung of dung
your mouth is like a lie buffet
sticks and stones, break your bones
you’re gonna feel their weight some day
brush your teeth, your voice stinks
you’ve got a little truth decay
something smells like shit
of course you’re the source of it
foul words dripping off your breath
stench so bad makes me wish for death
brush your teeth, your voice stinks
you’ve got a little truth decay
silver tongue, and lung of dung
your mouth is like a lie buffet
sticks and stones, break your bones
you’re gonna feel their weight some day
brush your teeth, your voice stinks
you’ve got a little truth decay

well this is my last entry
one to undo the noose
although my heart’s been emptied
broken battered abused
maybe this time it’s different,
i hold the right to choose
i’ll claw my way out again
i’m so grateful to you
we will, learn to, adapt and
press hard with grace
although, it stings
i think i just needed space
what ever I have I spent
in emotional muck
compares nothing to my
constant pressing of luck
although I’ve had my chances,
i’m fine with what I’ve struck
i’ll look back on this day
it sure beats being stuck
we will, learn to, adapt and
press hard with grace
although, it stings I think I just needed space
well this is my last entry
one to undo the noose
although my heart’s been emptied
broken battered abused
maybe this time it’s different,
i hold the right to choose
i’ll claw my way out again
i’m so grateful to you
