Strung Out

(album: The Skinny Years...Before We Got Fat - 1998)

The crumple of a law, justice shrinks the pain I feel
The dream we have, a bumpy road, to me has no appeal
Realistic dreaming comes out at you some day
The dream you have a perfect world just fades this night away

I'm strung out on this way of life
I have to find another way
Antagonistic tendencies plague me every day
Strung out on this road today
As my mind has been sorta unclean
I'm strung out on this way of life
And in debt every fucking way

I gave up a long time ago on the goals set for me
Ignorance and politics are strung out to be free
Cannot seem to find the answers problems that exist
But the misery that falls never fails to persist

I'm strung out on this way of life
I have to find another way
Antagonistic tendencies plague me every day
Strung out on this road today
As my mind has been sorta okay
I'm strung out on this way of life
And in there, every fucking way

Well I know you're scared and so am I
All these things that I tried to deny
Dream of toil creeps upon my sleep
Crawling alone, I'm in too deep

Sitting in a room in another hole
As I dream of hate and a desperate toll
I don't want it anymore, I can't take it anymore
I don't want it anymore

The crumple of a law justice shrinks the pain I feel
The dream we have, a bumpy road to me has no appeal
Realistic dreaming comes out at you some day
The dream you have will never float the miserable night away

I'm strung out on this way of life
I have to find another way
Antagonistic tendencies plague me every day
Strung out on this road today
As my mind has been sorta unclean
I'm strung out on this way of life
And in there, every fucking way
