[length: 09:15]
[00:01.53]Yeah
[00:02.06]
[00:36.70]Nowhere to go
[00:39.12]No place to go
[00:41.14]I’m real screwed up
[00:43.19]My eyes are sore from smoking all that shit
[00:46.47]No place to go
[00:48.35]Bottomless heart
[00:50.29]So big that everything just gets lost in there
[00:53.54]And if it never comes out
[00:56.27]That’s okay by me
[00:59.36]And on the other side
[01:03.25]At the top there may light at the end of the tunnel
[01:06.44]I just don’t think I’ll be the same
[01:10.26]I’m just warning you
[01:11.95]I’m warning you all
[01:14.40]No crutches, no, nothin’
[01:19.07]I am going to live the end
[01:22.78]Apocalypse man!
[01:25.52]What the hell else is there to do?
[01:28.19]I want a mission
[01:29.56]Not a gig or a good time, I want a mission
[01:33.01]Scrawny stiff legs and despair come walkin’ my way with an achy step
[01:38.34]Shipwrecked souls, desolation paradise
[01:41.92]Bountiful wonderland of lost souls staggering around, arms outstretched, looking for something
[01:48.77]Lonely hero man sitting on the crest of the apocalypse
[01:52.90]And our boy says something like, uh
[01:55.79]”Hey sir, I’m a man away from home, and my soul is out on loan
[02:03.19]Could you throw us down a bone, so I wouldn’t be all alone?
[02:07.03]’Cause I wanna see it all, and I wanna have it all
[02:10.43]And I wanna see it fall, and I wanna take it all away”
[02:15.48]February 13th
[02:17.15]Birthday, new shirt around my neck
[02:19.05]Shivers up and down my spine
[02:20.71]The time is mine and I’m feelin’ fine
[02:22.10]And I take this one thin dime
[02:24.82]Call my mom on the phone and say
[02:30.28]Say, something to warm her heart
[02:33.96]Say, uh, “Your boy done fucked up
[02:37.82]Had a bit of hard luck, went down a wrong trail, messed with some wrong people and just lost his mind
[02:45.42]Just lost his mind
[02:47.92]Just lost his mind
[02:50.49]Lost his mind
[02:53.97]Lost his mind
[02:56.56]Lost his mind
[02:59.25]Lost his mind”
[03:03.02]Jumped! Get stuck in the trunk, stuck in the jungle
[03:08.86]And their jokes and their pokes and their wrong side looks
[03:12.81]And all the notes in the books
[03:14.49]And all the wrong turns and all the bad burns
[03:17.37]And he never learned
[03:18.79]Kept burning, and he never got to learn
[03:22.14]One wrong turn led to another wrong turn
[03:25.99]Dog people!
[03:29.32]These people are for real!
[03:32.95]They watch television!
[03:36.77]They run in circles!
[03:41.02]They bark like dogs!
[03:44.56]They nip at my heels!
[03:48.46]They wanna put a collar around my neck!
[03:53.03]They want me to be like them!
[03:59.69]Well, I just walk right past, right over ’em, right though ’em, right on top of them
[04:04.75]I crush their face
[04:07.19]’Cause it’s easy
[04:09.43]’Cause they’re nothing!
[04:11.64]’Cause they’re nothing
[04:15.08]Little dogs
[04:17.96]Humping dogs
[04:20.93]Sticking that thing in any crap that passes by
[04:26.94]Dirt falling in my mind
[04:29.99]Dirt gettin’ stuck in my mouth
[04:32.05]Dirt gettin’ stuck in my eyes
[04:34.05]Seeing everything through dirt
[04:36.18]All I see is dirt, all I know is dirt
[04:40.42]Just talkin’ dirt, talkin’ dirt
[04:42.61]Digging dirt, loving dirt, rolling in dirt
[04:48.21]Dirt river, dirt slithers, dirt lovers, dirt undercover, dirt over color
[04:53.84]Ah
[04:56.76]
[05:08.76]I’ve felt dirty before, but it never felt quite like this
[05:12.52]I’ve seen dirt before, but it never looked quite looked quite like this
[05:16.52]I’ve talked dirt before, but it never sounded quite like this
[05:19.59]
[05:24.33]That’s not the way it is
[05:26.22]That’s just the way it is around here
[05:28.77]Around these parts
[05:31.23]Oh!
[05:36.13]It took a long time to make a long rhyme
[05:38.33]It took a long time to make a story short
[05:42.09]It took a lot of lives and a lot of lies to make this story what it is
[05:46.06]And stretch it into a disgusting distortion, and proportion, and detail
[05:51.60]And you can retail that, and sell it to the market and see what you get
[05:55.35]Bring back the proceeds and we’ll spend it on
[05:58.30]Something of worth
[06:01.38]Something that’ll save me
[06:04.38]Something that’ll get me out of here
[06:07.58]There’s nothing I want more… out
[06:12.60]There’s nothing I like to roll in like dirt
[06:18.73]Look
[06:20.48]Cheated myself
[06:22.87]Looked at myself
[06:24.76]Hated myself
[06:28.21]And if we could all just get together and hate a little
[06:33.94]We could hate one another
[06:36.93]Hate our sisters and brothers in a sea of disunity
[06:43.07]Get my fill when the blood spills
[06:46.02]Get my fill when the blood spills
[06:47.96]Get my fill when the blood spills
[06:49.19]Get my freeze with the chill spells
[06:51.13]Get my thrills with the cheers feel
[06:53.19]I get my thrills with the tears’ fills
[06:55.06]The glass breaks
[06:57.16]Shivers up and down my spine and I’m feeling fine
[07:00.02]I’m feeling fine, the time is mine
[07:01.73]
[07:09.59]Spending time to time getting my fill
[07:11.68]And all the bells ring inside my head
[07:13.30]Alarms going on and off
[07:15.91]All fucked up
[07:18.10]All messed up
[07:20.32]Open my eyes, too much breathing
[07:21.69]Too much of that fucking dirty air
[07:25.37]Makes me talk shit
[07:27.62]Makes me live shit
[07:33.74]Makes me wanna kiss the ground, better than kissing you
[07:38.16]Dirt girl, in that dirt dress
[07:42.00]What’s up that dirt dress?
[07:44.22]What’s up that dirt dress?
[07:46.24]Ain’t nothing but a bunch of trash
[07:48.60]Ain’t nothing but a bunch of trash
[07:50.24]Ain’t nothing but a bunch of trash
[07:52.33]Ain’t nothing but a bunch of trash, but you seem to have me quite interested
[07:55.58]Quite interested
[07:56.91]I think I’ll walk your way, I think I’ll say your name
[07:59.43]I think I’ll come over to your house
[08:01.82]Mmm, got something for me?
[08:06.04]Got something for me?
[08:07.42]I’m the man among men walking tall with a plan
[08:10.54]You can send it around the world, you can hold it in your hand
[08:13.38]You can bring it on home, I’m Armageddon man, girl
