Armatage ShanksINSOMNIAC
Brat
Mom
and Dad don't look so hot these days
They're
getting over the hill
Death
is closing in and catching up
As
far as I can tell
Got
a plan of action and cold blood
And
it smells of defiance
I'll
just wait for Mom and Dad to die
And
got my inheritance
Now
I want more
'Cause
I'm getting bored
And
I'm going nowhere fast
I was
once filled with doubt
Now
it's all figured out
Nothing
good can last
Crows
feet and rot are setting in
And
time is running out
My
parent's income interest rate
Is
gaining higher clout
I'm
a snot nosed slob
Without
a job
And
I know I damn well should
Mom
and Dad don't look so hot these days
But
my future's looking good
Stuck
With Me
I'm
not part of your elite
I'm
just alright
Class
structure waving colors
Bleeding
from my throat
Not
subserviant to you I'm just alright
Down
classed by the powers that be
Give
me loss of hope
Cast
out... Buried in a hole
Struck
down... forcing me to fall
Destroyed...
giving up the fight
I know
I'm not alright
What's
my price and will you pay it if it's alright?
Take
it from my dignity
waste
it until it's dead
Throw
me back into the gutter
'Cause
it's alright
Find
another pleasure fucker
Drag
them down to hell
Geek
Stink Breath
I'm
on a mission
I made
my decision
To
lead a path of self destruction
A slow
progression
Killing
my complexion
And
it's rotting out my teeth
I'm
on a roll
No
self comtrol
I'm
blowing off steam with methamphetamine
Don't
know what I want
That's
all that I've got
And
I'm picking scabs off my face
Every
hour my blood is turning sour
And
my pulse is beating out of time
I found
a treasure
filled
with sick pleasure
And
it sits on a thin white line
I'm
on a mission
I got
no decision
Like
a cripple running the rat race
Wish
in one hand shit in the other
And
see which one gets filled first
No
Pride
I'm
just a mutt
And
nowhere is my home
Where
dignity's a land mine
In
the school of lost hope
I've
panhandled for a life because
I'm
not afraid to beg
Hand
me down your lost and founds
Of
second hand regret
You
better swallow your pride
Or
you're gonna choke on it
You
better digest your values
Because
they turn to shit
Honor's
gonna knock you down
Before
your chance to stand up and fight
I know
I'm not the one
I got
no pride
Sects
of disconnection
And
traditions of lost faith
No
culture's worth a stream of piss
Or
a bullet in my face
To
hell with unity
Seperation's
gonna kill us all
Torn
to shreds and disjointed
Before
the final fall
Bab's
Uvula Who?
I've
got a knack for fucking everything up
My
temper flies and I get myself all wound up
My
fuse is short and my blood pressure is high
I lose
control and I get myself all wound up
Tension
mounts and I fly off the wall
I self
destruct and I get myself all wound up
Petulance
and irritation sets in
I throw
a tantrum and I get myself all wound up
Chip
on my shoulder and a leech on my back
Stuck
in a rut and I get myself all wound up
Killed
my composure and it will never come back
Loss
of control and I get myelf all wound up
Blown
out of proportion again
My
temper snaps and I get myself all wound up
Spontaneous
combustion
Panic
attack
I slipped
a gear and I get myself all wound up
86
What
brings you around?
Did
you lose something the last time you were here?
You'll
never find it now
It's
buried deep with your identity
So
stand aside and let the next one pass
Don't
let the door kick you in the ass
There's
no return from 86
Don't
even try
Exit
out the back
And
never show your head around again
Purchase
your ticket and
Quickly
take the last train out of town
Panic
Song
Ready
for a cheap escape
On
the brink of self destruction
Widespread
panic
Broken
glass inside my head
Bleeding
down these thoughts of
Anguish...
mass confusion
The
world is a sick machine
Breeding
a mass of shit
With
such a desolate conclusion
Fill
the void with... I don't care
There's
a plague inside of me
Eating
at my disposition
Nothing's
left
Torn
out of reality
Into
a state of no opinion
Limp
with hate
Stuart
And The Ave
Standing
on the corner of
Stuart
and the Avenue
Ripping
up my transfer
And
a photograph of you
You're
a blur of my dead past and rotting existance
As
I stand laughing on the corner of insignificance
Destiny
is dead
In
the hands of bad luck
Before
it might have made some sense
But
now it's all fucked up
Seasons
change as well as minds
And
I'm a two faced clown
You're
mommy's little nightmare
Driving
daddy's car around
I'm
beat down and half brain dead
The
long lost king of fools
I may
be dumb
But
I'm not stupid enough to stay with you
Brain
Stew
I'm
having trouble trying to sleep
I'm
counting sheep but running out
As
time ticks by
And
still I try
No
rest for crosstops in my mind
On
my own... here we go
My
eyes feel like they're gonna bleed
Dried
up and bulging out my skull
My
mouth is dry
My
face is numb
Fucked
up and spun out in my room
On
my own... here we go
My
mind is set on overdrive
The
clock is laughing in my face
A crooked
spine
My
sense dulled
Passed
the point of delerium
On
my own... here we go
Jaded
Somebody
keep my balance
I think
I'm falling off
Into
a state of regression
The
expiration date
Rapidly
coming up
It's
leaving me behind to rank
Always
move forward
Going
"straight" will get you nowhere
There
is no progress
Evolution
killed it all
I found
my place in nowhere
I'm
taking one step sideways
Leading
with my crutch
Got
a fucked up equilibrium
Count
down from 9 to 5
Hooray!
We're gonna die!
Blessed
into our extinction
Westbound
Sign
Boxed
up
All
of her favorite things
Sold
the rest at a rainy yard sale
Big
plans and leaving friends and
A westbound
sign
Weighed
out
Her
choices on a scale
Prevailing
nothing made sense
Just
transportation and a
Blank
decision... she's taking off
No
time and no copping out
She's
burning daylight and petrol
Blacked
out the rearview mirror
Heading
westward on
Strung
out
On
confusion road
And
ten minute nervous breakdowns
Xanex
a beer for thought
And
she determined... She's taking off
Is
it salvation?
Or
an escape from discontent?
Will
she find her name
In
the California cement?
Punched
out of the grind
That
punched her one too many times...
Is
tragedy 2000 miles away?
She's
taking off
Tight
Wad Hill
Cheapskate
on the hill
A thrill
seeker making deals
Sugar
city urchin wasting time
Town
of lunatics
Begging
for another fix
Turning
tricks for speedballs
One
more night
Making
your rounds once again
Turning
up empty handed
Bumming
a ride
Burning
daylight
Last
up at dawn... tight wad hill
Drugstore
hooligan
Another
white trash mannequin
On
display to rot up on the hill
Living
out a lie
But
having the time of his life
Hating
every minute of his existance
Walking
Contradiction
Do
as I say not as I do because
The
shit so deep you can't run away
I beg
to differ on the contrary
I agree
with every word that you say
Talk
is cheap and lies are expensive
My
wallet's fat and so is my head
Hit
and run and then I'll hit you again
I'm
a smart ass but I'm playing dumb
Standards
set and broken all the time
Control
the chaos behind a gun
Call
it as I see it even if
I was
born deaf, blind and dumb
Losers
winning big on the lottery
Rehab
rejects still sniffing glue
Constant
refutation with myself
I'm
a vicitm of a catch 22
I have
no belief
But
I believe
I'm
a walking contradiction
And
I ain't got no right
