You say you got nothin' for me
And my life is a bit obscene
No one to love or call my own
And I'm all strung out on methadone
Passed out, pissed off my friends
My life's been shit time and again
I'm hated for everything that I've done and I don't care
'Cause I'm the king of all the losers and empty-hearted weak abusers
Braindead and obsolete, so dumb can't even speak (so high can't even speak)
I'm on the floor again, these walls are closing in
Braindead and obsolete, a modern-day lobotomy
My head is spinnin' I'm about to choke
On this handful of pills stuck in my throat
I think I'm going a little insane
As I watch my life go down the drain
My heart feels like it's gonna stop
It's black, it's cold, it's filled with rot
And I'm the only one who takes the blame and I don't care
'Cause I'm the king of all the losers and empty-hearted weak abusers
Braindead and obsolete, so dumb can't even speak (so high can't even speak)
I'm on the floor again, these walls are closing in
Braindead and obsolete, a modern-day lobotomy
Anxiety is attacking me the pills they give will set me free

Old Novelties

Yesterday's so far away I'm thinking back to better days
When the world was in our hands
We were young and so alive and everything was do or die
They could never put an end to our plans
What happened to yesterday? All the good times have gone away...
Too many nights of neon lights and barroom fights
Got my head all in a haze
We reminisce about the times that we miss and the rivers start flowing
Through the valleys of my face
What happened to yesterday?
Kicked open all the doors and watched the flames just burn away
Time and again I see old friends, we sit and talk about how we've been
And the dreams that slipped away
Our lives have changed all too fast, hopes and dreams could never last
This existence has become dull and mundane

Standing here outside the door
Nothin' to do, nowhere to go oh oh
You'll know where to find me
I'm standing here and I'm all alone
Half a bottle of pills is gettin' my pulse out of time
I'm not feelin' sorry
And I know just what to do when my life comes all unglued
I keep knockin' 'em back and wash 'em down with a bottle of whiskey
Like a stray dog lost out of place
I'll never fit into this rat race
You'll know where to find me
Like a new balloon, I'll float away
I'll be on the edge of Outerspace
I'm never gonna come down

I see her walking down the street
Oh yeah
The kind of girl I'd like to meet
Uh-huh
But she will never notice me
No way
And my crazy punk rock sensibilities
And then she said what the fuck is that?
'Cause things are getting heavy all alone inside my room
And I'm going blind pretending that I love you
I see her on the t.v. screen
Oh yeah
The type of woman of my dreams
She's a star
They tell me we will never meet
Son, what are you doin' in the bushes?
But that don't mean a god damned thing to me
Get out of there kid, you can't be here!!
I see her in the magazines
These two pages aren't stuck together yet
My type of plastic fantasy
It says just add air
And they will ship you out for free
Man that's a deal
So I lock the door and throw away the key
Didn't you see the fuckin' sock on the doorknob?

Times have come and times have gone and times will surely change
I step right back and take a look at times that left me re-arranged
Am I insane, am I out of my mind?
I'd like to step out of the darkness but there's nowhere to hide
So I cut you off to protect myself and continue this cycle in my own true hell
As I bottle up my feelings and I throw them away
I try to silence the screams and pray for a better day
I can't take back all those things that I said
I said I was sorry then I said 'em again
And maybe saying sorry was out of line but you should know by now
I'll do it every time
It's not something you could ever understand, just take my word and hold my hand
It's not something that will ever go away
So help me silence the screams and pray for a better day

Highway '95
02:19

Thinking back to the time when I first took a hit
My life was in shambles and I never really gave a shit
I would move around from town to town
Never long enough to settle down
And the people and the streets are all the same
Only the names have changed
'95, out lookin' for a place to call my home
Up in smoke are the times I've spent down on my own
I broke my back workin' for the man every day
My pockets still empty and I just want to getaway
It seems I won't amount to shit so I light it up and take a hit
It's the only way that I stay sane
Until I find a better way
This loneliness, it sucks up all my energy
The pain inside my spine is slowly killing me
My memories are getting hazy
Am I going fucking crazy?
Help me 'cause I just don't understand

Pain, it will never feel the same
And all the thoughts inside my brain
Are gonna take me to a place I've never been before
Time, it is never on my side
I'm contemplating suicide
but then again, my life could never end that easy
So long, I'm checking out again
It seems I've only got one friend
And she's always gonna be by my side
They, they all say the same things
Lip service driving me insane
Don't tell me things I've never heard before
I know that everything will be ok
She is watching over me
Because Misery loves company
So long, I'm checking out again
It seems I've only got one friend
And she's always gonna be by my side
I'm on the run tonight
She'll never let me die
Because Misery loves company

Bubble gum and Lollie pops and televised atomic drops
Its candy-coated insta-pop a media blitz and it goes non-stop
Sell me this and sell me that and sell me more atomic crap
Made to order just your way but blinded by the price you pay
It seems the cycle keeps spinnin' around
It's time to break these chains
It's time to burn it all down
U.S.A. we must unite, we've got to fight for a better tomorrow
Stand up proud, take back the night and never let 'em have another day
I tried to cast my ballot today
They said "mail it in it will be ok"
Then I heard on the news they threw it away
And the Feds aren't gonna do shit NO WAY

You're telling me all the things I don't want to hear
You come around here now but you won't be here in a year
No, I don't want to look through your box of useless memories
And I don't want to read through the pages of your diary
I don't want to be another notch in your lipstick case
I saw you on the corner just the other night
Too drunk for self-esteem and way too high to get it right
I don't want to hear any more of your endless sob stories
I don't want to dance, I don't want to dance, I don't want to dance
I don't want to be another notch in your lipstick case
Now you've made a fool of yourself that much is clear
Why don't you make like a tree and get the hell on out of here
I don't want to look through your box of useless memories
I don't want to dance, I don't want to dance, I don't want to dance
You've made a mess of life and I've got no sympathy
I don't want to dance, I don't want to dance, I don't want to dance
I don't want to be another notch in your lipstick case

You say my generation is a waste of space
You'de never waste your time on me
Well I've got news for you, your gonna pay
Don't turn your back and walk away
Revenge, Revenge, I'm out of my head, I'm out of line, Revenge
Get down on both your knees, reach to the sky
And say your last prayers goodby
Does your whole life flash in front of your eyes
When you know your gonna die?
Revenge, Revenge, Vengeful justice will be mine, Revenge
Are you a coward? will you plead for your life?
Will you cry, apologize?
Or will you take it and look me in the eyes?
Starrin' down the barrel of my .45

Long Road

It's a long road to be set free
It's an endless trip through misery
But when all is said and done I wouldn't change a thing
I've been let down, I've been kicked in, I've been knocked down and I've lost friends
Just bumps in the road I chose to take
This is just life, gotta take it day by day when you fly by night
This is just life, and I won't be going down without a fight
I dove to the bottom trying to climb to the top
I burned too many bridges that I needed to cross
To get to this place at the end of the road
I did it my way with no compromise
I'll never stop to smell roses or take advise
I'm a ticking timebomb ready to explode
When I get to this place and walk through the door
I see too many faces I've seen before
I guess everyone's path leads to the same place
I've got nowhere to go but I know where I've been
Now that my journey is at the end
I look up to the sky and swear I'de do it all again
This is just life, gotta take it day by day when you fly by night
This is just life, I flew through hell and back and never felt the fire
