life
sucks
and it ain't getting better
living costs too much and you can't float in stormy weather
(it's like a)
break
down
in common courtesy
daily fear campaigns about how strangers are your enemy
(I've got a)
pro-
-blem
with this world we're living in
we're greedy for loose change and hope is running thin
(someone)
get
this
tie off of me
it feels like a noose that's got me lynched from the corporate tree
it's raining outside every single day
I can't a afford a yacht so I'll be washed away
and if it stops pouring I'm still doomed to drown
because I can't afford to live on solid ground
life sucks
and that's about it
no one
cares about
anyone else
growing up taught to only care for yourselves
(and why)
can't
we
believe in what we want?
why is being odd a thing that must be stopped?
(this just)
can't
be
what life is all about
you shouldn't be measured by what's in your bank account
(someone)
get
this
tie off of me
it feels like a noose that's got me lynch from the corporate tree
life sucks
(now get back to work)
life sucks
(need to pay off your worth)
life sucks
(there ain't much to miss)
life sucks
(and that's about it)

dirty fingernails are scrapping for wealth
working for pennies to save myself
living on salvation loans'll never last
the spiritual economy's bound to crash
been mining for silver linings in these clouds
looking for hope when the sky's falling down
the pit boss priest promised pay in paradise
but the word of god is just mortal lies
digging for china
digging for gold
digging for something to please my soul
digging for hours
digging for days
looks like I've dug myself a grave
seven plagues rolling in scream THE END IS NIGH
a ticket to heaven has gone up in price
workers to the life boats, the maelstrom swirls!
opened tear ducts have flooded the world
dug to rock bottom
then dug a foot down

do this
not that
that's right
you're doing it wrong
do this
like that
you've got it
but now it's wrong
no errors and no mistakes
don't you think that you should think for yourself?

you're losing ground
you're losing grip
falling through floorboards
landing on grit
eyes full of sand
mouth full of stone
you've lost teeth
to the curb of the road
head-on collision on a one-way street

Throw Them to the Sharks
03:37

who needs friends when they don't meet your needs?
they've been left behind, they're obsolete
you've found peace in living your days alone
with a cold heart in an empty home
(the lights are off and the phone is quiet
and you're there smiling in the silence)
you're just waiting for one of them to mess up
friendship with you is all about testing one's luck
you've got no room to care for people in your heart
one mistake and you'll throw them to the sharks
who needs friends when they don't fit your mold?
you need friends who will do as they're told
living in line and doing what you say
and if they go against the grain you'll throw them away
(the lights are off and the phone is quiet
and you're there smiling in the silence)
throw them to the sharks
(dear so and so, how have you been?
enjoying the life you've put yourself in?
are you proud of what you've done?
are you proud that you've pushed away everyone?
go ahead, you can lock that door
no one's coming to your home anymore)

RUN!

(I've been running, yes, I've been running,
my whole life I've been running,
since the day I could first stand and walk I've been running,
my shadow has a bone to pick with me!)
I've been running from something chasing after me
my shadow's got a truth it wants me to see
over the mountains and around every bend
a madman looking for where the sidewalk ends
WHERE DO I GO?
WHERE HAVE I BEEN?
IF I STOP RUNNING
I'LL NEVER RUN AGAIN
I've been running yes
I've been running
