You Leave A Dirty Trail... So Obvious Like The Rest,
But It's Easy To Find You When You're Living Way Out West!
Don't Cut Your Mouth On A Sharp Tongue, Better Watch Out What You Say!
I'm Not So Nice Today, It Hasn't Gone Away Yet...
And I'm Not Going Nowhere - So You Better Get Used To It!
[Chorus:]
It's All Good And Fake Distance Keeps You Safe
There's Six Degrees Of No Space - Good Try But Not This Time!
Mediocre Fits You Perfect And I'm So Amused To Hear It,
But I'll Never Buy Your Bullshit - Just Like I Will Never Fear It!
Keep Kissing Ass, Shaking Hands - Be Careful Where You Play!
I'm Not So Nice Today, It Hasn't Gone Away Yet...
And I'm Not Going Nowhere - So You Better Get Used To It!
[Chorus]
Your Life Like Your Mind Feeds All Your Lies!
It's Been A Long Time Coming - Long Time Coming!
And I'm So Glad I Went With My Instincts And Did This...
While They All Think You're Perfect So We Must Have Deserved It!
But I Know Quite Different - So I Will Rid Myself Of Words Which I Have Held Hostage - In Memory Of A Girl!
Your Opinion Who Asked For It Considering All That You've Said...
The Never Ending Shit Talking Will Never Be Forgotten!
[Chorus]
Your Life Like Your Mind Feeds All Your Lies!
No... Not This Time...
No... Not This Time...
No... Not This Time,
I Cut The Ties That Bind!
You Keep Playing The Martyr...
You... Keep Playing The Martyr....
You... Keep Playing The Martyr - Good Try But Not This Time!
