Looking down from the skybox, watching the whole block
Throw 'em in the air if you hate me now Not getting your truce, getting loose Like the noose on my neck I'm bringing the next suburban curse If I make it baby you can drive my hearse We're getting close man, toe to toe man, here we go Here we go, never gonna see me broken Here we go, they're never gonna see me broken Here we go, gonna keep my eyes open So tell me who do you think you're defeating? Looking out from the cellblock, watching the door lock, Throw 'em in the air cause you hate you now Expect nothing less, just confess You cut me off at my legs, No, I won't beg I'm older now, I won't sit here never making a sound We're getting close, toe to toe Here we go, Not broken, Here we go, never gonna see me broken Here we go, they're never gonna see me broken Here we go, gonna keep my eyes open Here we go, gonna stay so outspoken Until you eat out your heart still beating Who do you think you're defeating? |

Cut the engine when I'm all revved up, pull the rug beneath my feet
Pull the trigger when I'm wound up, then you turn your back on me Then you say that I'm taking too much, that I'm talking to myself And whether you like it or not you'll never ask for help Breathing for you Can't be all in my head Changing scares you This is all in your head Beware, I swear, I will be waiting there Draw the battlelines and back me down to the corner with such ease Turn the knife til I'm so worked up all I do is aim to please The power balance is now upside down with a sudden change of gears Every single word is now washed up by your crocodile tears The setting sun crumbles in the distance Feeble words meeting new resistance Tired games do they make a difference Tired games, tired games |

Under the gun to wear my teenage aggression
Tell everyone it's the high school's newest succession We didn't know what he was getting us into Look out below, below Come blazing your guns You write us off when times are rough, baby I couldn't say it enough, no Your commitment's so dangerous Under the scope, the new craze from the paid and the faceless Packaged and sold by the gross to the young and the tasteless Does anyone know where they go when they find the replacements Look out below, below Hours and hours of stipulation Slowly adding up to manipulation We bought into your presentation Rock 'n' roll and speculation Throw your pitch and show your numbers Dropping names of the people you're working under I'll keep the miles, you can have the cash Here's your word you can have it back Come blazing your guns You write us off when times are rough, baby I couldn't say it enough, no Your commitment's so dangerous I can't stand the crossroads Turn around when the times are rough, baby I couldn't say it enough Your commitment's so dangerous |

You started it off, break out the ammunition
If not enough, you point at my friends Grabs the keys and tells me she's out of patience And tells her friends what a loser I've been The walls go up, the telephone is waiting To get shut off, if it happens again I've been building up or just been overrating Time and my sanity spent I don't wanna stand here and say I'm sorry I just want to drink beer and play Atari You can tell your mom how I make my money I don't care Well, later on my clothes are in the front yard The tapes I made are all in a mess I got to laugh thanks for the new selection I got your dad's John Tesh I don't wanna stand here and say I'm sorry I just want to drink beer and play Atari You can tell your mom how I make my money I don't care The world outside is cold, man, it's gone forever I get high, in hindsight it's getting better Save your breath, your threats won't hurt me And I don't care Beautiful, twisted and beautiful I'm wasted and miserable Take it away |

The world is blocked out in the bedroom
The radio won't let her down Every note is a reminder Another failure born Thirty miles outside Chicago Kids know what's really going on Still this gravel highway makes a statement We're another town gone wrong Moving out and moving on You used to look like me Moving out and moving on, forever And this autumn air reminds How things slowly unwind Changing times have been unkind to you As these days they slip away We grown closer to our graves Had the best time of my life, without you It's three month since I've seen Chicago Now the buliding aren't so tall I found our initials in the pavement Just another dream gone wrong I bet it's simplier today Throwing everything away But the memory remains, Forever |

Popped up this morning just a little off center
God fearing world, I'm so afraid to enter Haven't decided what to do Looking back, looking over my shoulder Still agnostic, every day it gets older Haven't decided what to do Holy books, so many flaws no answers Believe in him, or fear him like a cancer Haven't decided what to do Bible banging, slanging Jesus at my door Hey son, this is something you can't afford Haven't decided what to do Oh, give me somethign to believe So many down on their knees It baffles me, baffles me Popped up this morning like nipples in the winter God fearing world, I'm so afraid to enter Haven't decided what to do After life, after death uncertain Choose your side before they're dropping the curtain Haven't decided what to do Where do I go for my inspiration Go with the flow, with the standing ovation Haven't decided what to do Standing idle, waiting for doomsday Damned if you do, damned if you don't say Haven't decided what to do Learned my lesson from history I'm not claiming to be Jesus Christ and company I am needy, I'm a thief I'm not claiming to have role model qualities But here's a lesson, Simplicity From a poor boy who don't believe in destiny Be good to one another, set yourself free All the pieces they fall together |

I don't need your advice
I am the device That you are living through How long can this last It's all in the past And I am living proof Chorus You gave it away, Maybe I'm not old enough You gave it away Maybe I wasn't cool enough You gave it away Maybe you weren't there enough There enough Fuck it, come on The greatest device Branches collide The overcast agrees The rotten fruit That you prosecute is leaving the family tree Chorus You plant the seed Then you take control Your grip has taken its toll Chorus |

I left you in the morning
Still drunk on melodrama, You're so pretty so natural but I had to salvage honor . Down your spiral staircase The television I bought you, Took a deep breath Of your endless love perfume. The carnage that the storm left Six inches on the ground The south side of Chicago Stands eerily so sound. I looked up at your window Hand out as if to touch you; You used to be so perfect Why did I ever meet you? |

Forty five steps to the liquior store
Just another breakdown that I can't afford but Can't worry about tomorrow's pain tonight Alright Forty five minitues it will all be gone I'll be strapped to the tap like nothing's wrong but Can't worry about tomorrow's pain tonight Alright These days, these nights are so ordinary Smoke filled room conversation slow Just leave me alone with the radio Can't worry about tomorrow's pain tonight Alright End of the tunnel couldn't light my path Souls warring down still running fast but Can't worry about tomorrow's pain tonight, Alright Possessions never make good friends You can throw it all away Freedom is the race to your new beginning Possessions never made much sense Confessions never made much sense to me These days, these nights are so ordinary |

It's getting quiet here again
For a minute let's pretend When I disapear the world stops turning Getting hassled by my friends They're telling me I'm changing for the worse Another episode I'm still pretending I'm growing tired of holding out Another open road it's never ending time Here's to you, the good life and me Here's to handshakes and losers, medicine and gasoline Here's to you the good life to be The dial tones, the misery and me All the questions are the same Won't you question who's to blame Or ask me when my fire stops burning Throwing more than just the game Spitting back my answers well rehearsed |
