There are people starving in other countries, yet we beg for more. We're greedier than I thought we were - pigs at the slaughter. And America bleeds red, white, and blue - while our allies just bleed red. We won't help them, we don't have the courage. Quit making excuses for our lazy politicians that make our lives even harder than they already are. We can't figure why we keep seeing pictures of broken glass and tiny villages plagued by war. Because America kind of sucks, but we think we are the shit... Come on! We're kind of bullies that are in other people's business. Can we forget about the things that we did to other countries when they're gone? I have a feeling that nothing I say makes any difference, 'cause I don't have the money to promote it. I'm just not cut out for a corporate mindset. I'm too passionate. I hate making other people feel like they're worthless by throwing my money at things, like a stupid fuckin' circus. If anyone's a monkey, it's that asshole Rick Santorum. Stuck in his own thick skull - two thousand million meters from the surface. Because America kind of sucks, but we think we are the shit... Come on! We're kind of bullies that are in other people's business. Can we forget about the things that we did to other countries when they're gone?

Hey, are you there? Are you awake? I need somewhere to escape to. In your bedroom, I can see your wallpaper is starting to fade from all the times that we scratched at the walls screaming bloody murder. There are things you know about me that I hope will never hurt you. Anytime, anywhere, any place, the decision I make... I'm not a hero for letting myself become who I wanna be. This world is for lovers, and I am loveless. I'm full of evil no one sees. Someday, I hope to vanish to a place where you can't be. I'm not a fan of my work, even if I tell myself I am. I'm just self-conscious and extremely self-loathing. I'm just regurgitating lyrics I have written to myself. I'm not creative. I'm just awful.

This isn't a feeling. It's barely a compliment. Drifting in between the lines, I swear I meant it. You can cry over anything you feel like over-thinking, but I'm not helping. Because I can't see the light yet, but I'm starting to wish that I could. I can feel my lungs pumping out sharp breaths. I'm an idea worth dying for. Martyrdom and angry words fill the inside of my skull. I'm not able to resurface from this place. I'm still stuck in this deep, yet shallow hole. In my chest, I can feel a knife pierce my heart. I am bleeding out, I can't feel your love. You are a traitor. You are the worst thing that's ever happened to me.

The sand, your shoes, your point of view Erase your face in a dumb cartoon Well I saw The Jerk but that stuff don't work So you say it used to But can you say it with a please? I wanna see what's going on Over your shoulder but it all goes wrong Don't say goodbye say you're not sure Anything could ever come between the two of us I would say the same thing In the place with cakes and eight ball juice Where I lost my place so I started over again With some farmyard friends Looked em dead in the eyes and said I'm not like you I wanna see what's going on Over your shoulder but it all goes wrong Don't say goodbye say you're not sure Anything could ever come between the two of us I would say the same thing I wanna see what's going on Over your shoulder but it all goes wrong It all goes wrong
