lyrics

I’ve been here it seems forever
Broken down, chopped and severed
Ten years cold, a ten year cold endeavor
Fourteen miles lost per hour

And so in this line
I will rhyme these words that don’t go together
You must find
Piece of mind and if you want me forever
You must promise to never

Speak aloud your holocaust of opinions
I’m not your prima donna local junkie pretender
You got me wrong all along, not for radio
Teacher tell us how to bite the lion

And so in this line
I will rhyme these words that don’t go together
You must find
Piece of mind and if you want me forever
You must promise to burn that smile off your face
Please burn that smile off your face
Please burn it off

Fast asleep against the wailing wall
Tell us how to entertain you all
The sentiment is honest but isn’t pure
How do we keep from drowning?
