CynicalGuitarist Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 All the screw-ups (countless) I've made in this life have been starting to take a toll. First, not graduating high school, second, not getting a job as soon as I turned 16-17 (my friggin teacher refused to give me paperwork for a work permit), third, my massive car payments, and I'm now on a quest to teach kids not to end up like me. I encourage children everywhere to succeed in school, pay attention, and stay away from drugs; even if it's just pot or alcohol. Otherwise, you'll end up a cynical, inept, apathetic fool like me. I now adopt the saying "The nail that sticks out is the first one to be hammered". At this point, it seems that Dredg is one of the only bands that knows how I feel; Bug Eyes describes me to a pin needle: Bring back those good ol' days Nothing feels right Nothing ever goes my way I threw my future away Now I'll walk alone out here in the cold Wandering astray Where's my future? Gonna need a home You'd expect the same, now, wouldn't you? Wouldn't you? Your journey back to birth Is haunting you It's haunting you Your departure from the earth Is haunting you It's haunting you Only those who accept Will find that acceptance in return We have been trimmed down like hedges Told just to sit and wilt And spit at each other from a distance With constant resistance From you I'm gonna need a home You'd expect the same, now, wouldn't you? Wouldn't you? Your journey back to birth Is haunting you It's haunting you Your departure from the earth Is haunting you It's haunting you It's been ten years strong That's much too long Time to do something good for my health Time to do something good for myself I've wasted all this time... I've wasted all this time... Your journey back to birth Is haunting you It's haunting you Your departure from the earth Is haunting you It's haunting you Link to comment
