It’s not a simple thing for me to explain it Cos I don’t know exactly what’s going on It’d take a million years for you to understand me And I know we don’t have that long And what you know And what would you care We’re just crippled by the fact of that that you’re there It’s just another secret that you’ll never know It’s my frustration that seems to grow and grow I’m in awe cos the weight of this thing it weighs more Bodies thrown catastrophic tones, it weakens my bones Blistered sores multiply in scores It’s time to draw to straws It’s time to draw to straws It’s a scandal to be found to in the tabloids It’s just a part this trip that I’m on To find some friends with no end and a future It’s not so far away We’ll make it, we’ll make it I’m in awe cos the weight of this thing it weighs more Bodies thrown catastrophic tones, it weakens my bones Blistered sores multiply in scores It’s time to draw to straws It’s time to draw to straws

It’s moving forward While I’m going backward Assorted confusions With mixed delusion This parallel’s real You know just how I feel When we slip on the peel To procrastinate is fine When you’re past your prime But we’re just wasting time It preys on the mind Preys on the mind Bear this cross and you’ll find It harms the spine Anxious to see A glimpse of sanity Before it escapes me To another isle Leaving this thing filed But it’s just not my style It preys on the mind Preys on the mind Bear this cross and you’ll find It harms the spine It preys on the mind Preys on the mind Bear this cross and you’ll find It harms the spine I know I go on Too much sometimes But all these things Won’t be denied

Where at a crossroad The problems are tenfold You know it’s a farce It never lasts, no Roll, roll... Where at a crossroad The problems are tenfold And you know it’s a farce It never lasts, no Roll, Roll.. Everything is fine When you’re mine Just climb on in this This tired skin Sticks in my throat Thick and cold Sticks in my throat...

Does it make you feel Make you feel Make you feel awful These feelings that I hide scare me all the time It makes me awful It’s not hard to find hate personified It makes you feel awful I’m just a walking brain This neurotic plain It makes me feel awful Awful Awful Awful Awful Bah, bah, bah, bah… Does it make you feel Does it make you feel Make you feel stupid Everything a sign These thoughts of mine They make me feel stupid Stupid Stupid Stupid I’m stupid Bah, bah, bah, bah… Hear the horns sing They sing, they sing Hear the horns sing They sing, they sing Hear the horns sing They sing, they sing Bah, bah, bah, bah…
