ALREADY DEAD -
dead -
you're already dead, and you don't even fuckin' know it -
dead -
you're already dead, you're just like the rest, and the morgues overflowin'
dead -
it's all in the way that you disregard your dreams
dead -
from the small corners of your mind you hear them scream
what a change from the days we held our heads in shame
when the daily grind was the cause of our pain
you're killing yourself, but what do you gain?
you're just a number, no longer a name
dead -
you're already dead and you don't even fucking know it
dead -
you're already dead, you're just like the rest, and the morgues overflown'
dead -
your mind is dead & gone, and you don't even know it
dead -
your body's a puppet, and you don't control it
now as i conjure these lyrics from the back of my brain
these words they spill from my pen to the page
you're bitching & moaning, i don't complain
i spend days without dollars, then cash in the change
changed from the days we held our heads in shame
when the daily grind was the cause of our pain
i was killing myself, found out i was to blame
so i gave back my number, and took back my name

NICKELS & DIMES
I could not forget the times
we made those fuckers pay
the nickels and the dimes
on a warm mid western day
i will never forget the times
we made those fuckers pay
the nickels and the dimes
on a warm south bonetown day
haunted by ghosts from our past
good times that don't seem to last
i have no regrets, and i'd do it all again
I could not forget the times
we made those fuckers pay
the nickels and the dimes
on a gray mid western day
i will not forget the times
we made those fuckers pay
the nickels and the dimes
on another south bonetown day
how do you say goodbye
when you know that this is the last time
bright stars they shine
you know - they fill the sky
and i know, you're up among them
haunted by ghosts from the past
good times that don't seem to last
and if you ask me i'd say
i have no regrets and i'd do it all again
i can not forget the times
we made those fuckers pay
the nickels and the dimes
on a warm south bonetown day

RAT RACE -
RAT!!!!
you get up early & start your RAT fucking day
you're out the door, you're on your RAT fucking way
to your bullshit job for your shitty fuckin' pay
you're just a fucking RAT in the RAT RACE
it's a RAT RACE
slaving away every fucking day for your murder wage
and now the day is done
the RAT RACE is over & run
and you were the first to place
but it doesn't even matter
you're still a fucking RAT
in the RAT RACE
it's a RAT RACE
slaving away for your murder wage every fucking day
you created a cage, now your spending your days just rotting away
it's a RAT RACE
so you say that "shit's all fucked"
"times are tough"
you've completely given up
slaving away every fucking day for your murder wage
IT'S NEVER TOO LATE TO BREAK OUT OF THE CAGE & FUCKING ESCAPE
FROM THE rat race

2 DAYS
i spent the last 2 days fuckin' dying inside
i spent the last 3 nights just tryin' to hide
i figured out just how to cope
i got a 6 pack & a bag of dope
so what the fuck am i trying to confess?
the fact that i'm a complete fuckin' mess?
and what's that i hear off in the distance?
the sound of broken fuckin' commitments
ayh fuck it man, let's just go get high
you know tomorrow we just might fuckin' die
so what the fuck am i trying to confess?
the fact that i'm a complete fuckin' mess?
and what's that i hear off in the distance?
the sound of broken fuckin' commitments
yeah, that's right, i'm fuckin' drunk again
and this one goes out to all my friends
still throwin' it down, still partyin' up
still playin' in bands, not givin' a fuck
i spent the last 2 days fuckin' dying inside
i spent the last 3 nights just tryin' to hide
i figured out just how to cope
i got a 6 pack and a bag of dope
so what the fuck am i tryin' to confess
the fact that i'm a complete fuckin' mess
and what's that i hear off in the distance?
the sound of broken commitments
dope = weed, smoke, pot, marijuana

STANDING STILL

STANDING STILL
you stand still - maintain worthless possessions
i'm moving forward with aggressive progression
and that's where the separation begins
i believe there is a direct correlation
between
your disappointment and unexpressed expectations
and that's something you should have figured out long ago
you're standin' still fuckin' waitin' on somethin'
i'm moving forward, from you i need nothing
this is why the separation exists
i believe there is a simple explanation for your
lack of dedication and your abrupt resignation
and that's something i should have figured out long ago
if you're standing still - things won't ever change
you gotta keep movin' - don't be afraid
if you're standing still - things will always be the same
you gotta keep movin' - don't be afraid
you're standing still - maintaining worthless possessions
i'm moving forward with aggressive progression
and this is why the separation exists
you're standing still fuckin' waiting on somethin'
i'm moving forward, from you i need nothing
you stand still
i will persist
if you're standing still - things will never change
you gotta keep movin' - don't be afraid
if you're standing still - things will always be the fucking same
you gotta keep movin' - don't be afraid

INFECTED
i freed my hands from the ties that bind
to shade my eyes from the lights that blind
i live my life one day at a time
I WILL NOT BE INFECTED
parasitic blood suckers
you're infected motherfuckers
parasitic blood suckers
you're infected motherfuckers
i was a puppet, but i cut my strings
no longer dance to the songs you sing
the future is open & it's undefined
I WILL NOT BE INFECTED
you're infected - now, how do you feel?
as suffering becomes your ritual
so tell me - how that workin' out for you?
I WILL NOT BE INFECTED
parasitic blood suckers
you're all infected motherfuckers
parasitic blood suckers
you're all infected motherfuckers
you're infected
you're all infected
i freed my hands from the ties that bind
to shade my eyes from the lights that blind
i live my life one day at a time
I WILL NOT BE INFECTED
parasitic blood suckers
you're infected motherfuckers
parasitic blood suckers
you're infected motherfuckers

FAKIN' IT
come with me
on a death march
down memory lane
where joker, he sings the blues
and the band plays the same ol' fuckin' tune
rehearsals became a routine
show up late, get drunk, then leave
come with me
on a death march
down memory lane
you would never give
you just take it
you were never real
you just faked it
it became a repetitive fucking task
answering all the stupid questions that you'd ask
i've heard your story so many fucking times
that i've memorized it line for fucking line
come with me
on a death march
down memory lane
where jive turkey, he sang the blues
and the band played the same ol' fuckin' tune
rehearsals became a routine
show up late, you get drunk then leave
come with me
on a death march
down memory lane
you would never give
you just take it
you were never real
you just faked it
it became a repetitive fucking task
answering all the stupid questions that you'd ask
i've heard your story so many fucking times
that i've memorized it line for fucking line
and it took us some time to realize
you were just squares in disguise
you are just squares in disguise
half truths - you're full of fuckin' lies
you are just squares in disguise
half truths - you're full of fuckin' lies
