Lyrics

Scattered

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.

Where the dragon flies float on

And little kids go chasing them

Til night time comes along

And the prophet of a discontent is gone

And the devil smiles as he pulls the wings off

Of the one who wrote and forgot the song

Well it's not my fault what you did

And it's not my fault we're young and stupid

Still I'm stuck in this nightmare joke

No company

My strings are broke

So I go out lookin for the right one

A nice, fat girl with a tight one

Cuz I, I, oh I always laugh when I'm hurting

When I was punk I was way more punk than you

What happened to our little tribe

On a tombstone it inscribed

And I, I didn't know my friends would leave me too

When I sold out I thought my lies out

Through and Through

Cuz I, I, oh I always laugh when I'm hurting

Is anyone sick of being nervous

And annoyed?

Don't play with pens to fill the void

And I'm paranoid

And the legacy that we've become

To the hard rock and see the shotgun

If we're good leading on the play

Holding out for a different fate

Yeah

No one's fooling anyone

Everyone struggles inside

And everyone has lied

Fooling anyone

No one is fooling anyone

Yeah

No one is fooling anyone

No one is fooling anyone

Turn the music up louder

Spit out the taste of gun powder

Yeah

We'll have a bonfire

Burn it all down let's take it higher

That ugly word that makes my throat feel thick

She said love

I won't feel sick

When you say how ya doin

We'll say

We are fine

Yeah

We're fine

I am fine

Cuz I, I, oh I always laugh when I'm hurting

Oh and I, oh I
