Sk8 Rock

(album: All Fall Down - 1998)

Don't try to understand it
The most destructive high
Shoots my nerves into the sky
Everybody's looking for something
I know just what I need
I'm addicted to the speed

Rent-a-cops try to stop me
I wanna see you try
I just want to skate or die
Faster than lightning and out of sight
Like a demon in the night... go!

I grab my skate and catch some air
I'm grinding my life away but I don't care
'Cause skating for me is more than a feeling
Run for cover I hear somebody squealing

Stupid rent-a-pig, you try to make me stop
But you better back off or I'll knock you off your block
I'm a prisoner for life, a slave to the grind
I slide into the future and leave my worries behind!

Don't try to understand it

I just want to skate or die
Faster than lightning and out of sight
Like a demon in the night... go!

I'm grinding my life away but I don't care
'Cause skating for me is more than a feeling
Run for cover I hear somebody squealing

Stupid rent-a-pig, you try to make me stop
But you better back off or I'll knock you off your block
I'm a prisoner for life, a slave to the grind
