rock!
why is there no fuckin relief
wired off your face trying to sleep
caught within the things you believe
falling into traps you concede
i don't need it
that fucking shit
since defeated
i'll be better off
when the fences stand up to tall
cry out cuase they don't answer you call
friends when your down they will fall
pretend you hear nothing at all
i don't need it
your fucking shit
still defeated
better off dead
I don't need it
I don't need it
why is there no fuckin relief
wired off your face trying to sleep
caught into a trap you believe
falling into things you believe
i don't need it
that fucking shit
since defeated
better off dead
