Find My Place
Gotta find my place in this world Gotta find my
place in this world I want to be more than just a face in the crowd I want
to be proud of my time in this world Feel like someone's taken my place
in this world I feel out of place every place Too much time on my hands
And no one understands my demands For changing this world I've got so much
faith in this world I've got so much riding on this on this I keep working
so hard and it just breaks my heart When it all seems to fall apart At
the seams Gotta find my place in your heart Gotta find my place in your
mind Gotta find the time to find the time To find the life I left behind
trying to find My place in this world Find my place in this world Find
my place in this world.
Before The Accident
Well here's to you And your old crew For when you
used to run this town Before the new kids came around Before you came back
Before you went away Before everything here changed Here's to you And your
old crew Before you played your cards too soon Here's to sitting around
talking About how wild you used to be Here's to stagnating and complaining
And to your lame washed up bar scene Here's to you before growing up to
soon Before the accident (whaaa!) Here's to being bitter, here's to regret
Here's to the old days, drink to forget Here's to you ditching your used-to-be's
And coming back out on the town with me Here's to you before growing up
to soon Before the accident.
I Used To
I used to want you Now I want to make you nervous
Now I want to make you hate Now I want to make you crazy So that we can
still relate And we could get drunk all night And in the morning ride your
Motorcycle through the dirt road Countryside Like we used to do I used
to need you Now I need to fuck up your life Cause you pain and strife Stab
you in the heart With a rusty knife Then maybe you'd still be a Skitzed
out freak and maybe You'd still like me And at least you'd still be interesting
I used to.
Reach For The Bottle
I'd love to stay and have another beer And we could
waste another year Saying how last one was better Do you remember the time?
Now the only time I see you smile and sigh The only time I see that sparkle
in your eye Is when you talk about getting another bag of dope I hate to
see you when you Reach for the bottle Reach for the needle Reach for the
little white pills To kill the pain Think you're so wild with the bottle
in your hand Slurring your speech, barely able to stand But you look just
like a younger version of Your stupid drunk old man When you reach for
the bottle Reach for the needle Reach for the little white pills It kills
your spirit It kills your imagination It makes me sick it makes me sad
It makes me wonder what happened to you It makes me reach for the bottle
too.
Walkin' Catastrophe
Hey she's a walking catastrophe She keeps on whining
and now It's all rubbing off on me Hey she's looking for sympathy So keep
on crying You're not getting any from me Everything's gone wrong again
Everything is all fucked up Everything Everything It's all rubbing off
on me.
I Am An Elephant
Wow, look at you Your pathetic It's amusing It's
depressing It's amazing Tell everyone What your not And they believe you
They proceed to Emulate you Now you've got a whole Circle Jerks of fakes
Crowding up my space I'm talking shit behind your back I'd say it to your
face But I'm not sure which one Hey! There's one thing that hasn't
changed You're still a joke to me It's so easy to see right through you
Do you remember That I knew you When you were just Yourself? Well
I wonder, were you ever? Anyway, I liked you better When you did
not Change with the weather Doesn't it feel good to know I'll always remember
you? Do you wish I'd go away? Do you think I could? Change
you past, change your style, Change your identity But you're a fool and
a fake I don't forget easily There's one thing that hasn't changed You're
still a joke to me It's so easy to see right through you.
I Am The Stranger
I'm glad you taught your kids my name They scream
it as they run away They say it's getting worse out there Let me welcome
you to the climate of fear I am the stranger Your paranoia created me A
picture perfect scary freak A violent drugged out two-bit thief Just like
they show them on TV You lock your car door when I walk by You won't even
look me in the eye I walk alone down the street at night Triggering every
sensor-security light I am the stranger You lock me out of your world But
you won't leave me alone Concerned neighbors call the cops on me For going
into my own home Look at you, you're scared of life Just waiting to be
killed, saying "If I don't call the cops on you my neighbor will" But your
neighbor Is the stranger.
Certain Things
He is good at certain things Like making you feel
guilty And disappointing everybody At breaking promises and plans And talking
shit behind your back And telling you how you should live While he goes
nowhere fast He says I only see his faults But that's not true I'm trying
to have a positive attitude Yeah, he is good, really good At certain things
She is good at certain things Like staying at home watching TV Yeah, she
really does it perfectly But that's not all, you also get Snotty condescending
comments And she's really good at turning A small problem Into a huge dramatic
mess These talents didn't come naturally though It took a lot of practice
To get them down so well Now she is good, really good At certain things
They were both really good Really good friends of mine But people they
change over time Now they are so perfect together I'm glad they found each
other They make such a wonderful couple.
Mahogany
Do you know where you're going to Do you like the
things that life is showing you Where are you going to Do you know?
Do you get what your hoping for When you look behind you there's no open
doors What are you hoping for Do you know? Once we were standing
still in time Chasing the fantasies and fear in our minds Do you know how
I loved you but my spirit was free Laughing at the questions that you once
asked of me Do you know where you're going to Do you like the things that
life is showing you Where are you going to Do you know? Now looking
back at all we've had We let so many dreams just slip through our hands
Why must we wait so long before we see How sad the answers to those questions
can be.
