lyrics

My watch is broken
and my throat feels coarse
my eyes are blank
and my smile is forced
how can we be strong
and not so weak
how did we lose to the television screen
that screams war war war war
sex drugs sex
vi vi vi vi
violence
die die die
after this talk show
we've got you by the throat
and we're never letting go

No we're never letting go
we're never letting go
we've got you by the throat and we're never letting go
nothing new is up to you it's all under control
a braindead life
is yr one and only hope

So when's the time fer action
when yr time is never yours
money costs desires
discarded on the floor
I'd like to run forever
(?? I don't actually know this line ??)
I'd like to just keep running
until I fall in love
In the foggy streets
my time is my own
I ride ride ride
like I'm never coming home
one time I ran fer weeks
searching fer gold
I'm way too young
to feel so old

I'm too young to feel so old
too young to feel so old
searching fer gold
I'm too young to feel so old
my ears don't work after the last punk show
my beard's full of dirt
and my pants are full of holes

So burn all the nick-nacks
hangin on yr wall
don't answer the door
when the cops get called
don't go to mass
and never go to court
I'll never fall asleep
but I'll never ever get bored
because god is dead
and it's starting to hail
the highway's closed
and the stock market failed
I'm gonna make it now
I know that I can
I'm not getting mad
no I'm getting even

No I'm getting even
I'm getting even
I'm not getting mad
no I'm getting even
I'm not getting mad
I'm getting even
I'm not getting mad
I'm just getting even
