lyrics

I can't decide if I'm feeling up or down.
That's the first thing you should know about me.
Who likes being told they're not worth a damn?
Some are used to the absurd their parents put them through.
Reach for the top & you'll be disappointed when you get there & it's not what you had dreamed it was. It's human instinct to escape reality. All that we can do is sing or scream.

I wish for something to connect me to everyone who's been let down or misused & I'm hoping that one day I could be a punching bag for you.

Look at me now and you'll see I'm black and blue.
I've been stumbling through life like a drunken stooge.
Nobody likes being told to get their shit in line.
Some are used to the dysfunction of their family.
Scape the bottom and you'll be disappointed when you run out of all the people you can blame. It's human instinct to not accept responsibility. It's easier to shout and point the finger.

I wish for something to connect me to everyone who's been let down or misused & I'm hoping that one day I could be a punching bag for you.
