The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You say it's raining
As you piss in my ear
You say it's pain inside
That fills you with fear
Right-right
Right-right
Right-right
Right-right
You say you had it
You can't find, it lost
You say you have it
I say gimme back my cross
Everybody movin from the right to the left
Everybody movin from the life to the death
Everybody movin from the good to the bad
Everybody movin from the happy to the sad
Everybody churnin and life ain't fair
Everybody movin to the rip n' tear
Right-right
Out of my way insanity
Right-right
Out of my really don't care
Right-right
Out of my way with your gimme-gimme
Right-right
Gonna do rip n' tear
It's right in front
And when I blink my eye
It's gone
I turn around, it turns around
And no ones standing
I catch a glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye
Turn back around
And no one ever going to
belive what I saw
It knocks me down
And when I blink my eye
It kills
I crawl around
Down on the ground
With no one living
I take a hit
Into the corner of my eye
I try to stand
And no one ever going to
Belive what I saw
It's right in front
And when I blink my eye
It's gone
I turn around, it turns around
And no ones standing
I catch a glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye
Turn back around
And no one ever going to
belive what I saw
Right-right
Right-right
Right-right
Right-right
Right or wrong, weak or strong
This is where we all belong
Don't you know that life ain't fair
Don't you know the rip n' tear
Everybody movin from the lick to the bark
Everybody movin from the light to the dark
Everybody movin from the right to the left
Everybody movin from the life to the death
Everybody churnin and life ain't fair
Everybody movin to the rip n' tear
Right-right
Out of my way insanity
Right-right
Out of my really don't care
Right-right
Out of my way with your gimme-gimme
Right-right
Gonna do rip n' tear
Right-right
