Chorus: This old world don’t feel like it end And this old life don’t feel like a friend I know I’m just here I know I’m just here I don’t feel like wondering round no more I don’t remember what I’ve been running for I know I’m just here I know I’m just here Verse 1: I wake up to the same alarm the same face the same tomorrow The same waste of space no lace no charm just some masonry Encasing my own hate of me basically put a date on me Cuz I’m already best used by painfully This complaceny completes the trace of me I feel the latency of what they do then what I feel Fate me to is just some random bad day act I haven’t had a chance to make you see But graciously you won’t even waste your time on hating me Chorus: This old world don’t feel like it end And this old life don’t feel like a friend I know I’m just here I know I’m just here I don’t feel like wondering round no more I don’t remember what I’ve been running for I know I’m just here I know I’m just here: Verse 2: Existence is this all there is or did I miss My indifference to your life is more about physics then metaphysical limits Listen its just its you fire your ballistics cuz you don’t like the other guy’s mystic Shit kid this is the same fight we started since existence And a thousand years from this instant they fire the same missles burn the same witches Nobody listens were dismissive and missing the point this is Come to grips with time check yours I’ve already missed it Chorus: This old world don’t feel like it end And this old life don’t feel like a friend I know I’m just here I know I’m just here I don’t feel like wondering round no more I don’t remember what I’ve been running for I know I’m just here I know I’m just here

Would you save my soul if you knew Would you save my soul if you knew Would you save my soul if you knew what I'd been through Would you save my soul if you knew Would you set your feet a fire And walk through fields of briar Would you push me up higher and higher And help me to aspire to walk them pearly gates with you Would you save my soul if you knew Would you save my soul if you knew Would you save my soul or let me go Would you save my soul if you knew Hey there hey there friend of mine Won't you help me out this one last time And be there won't you there be there for me Hey there hey there friend of mine I don't deserve the time you'll find But be there won't you be there for me Back in the day we open containered a ticket Driving over the limit vintage blue rusted Plymoth Whipping shitties while doing a whip it Who turn to hit it Get the wah wah wah for less then a minute Time less then infinite now I'm bless to be in it Test what i'm givin yes this mess that I'm livin Unless I'm forgivin' I'm here to swim in this sinnin' Grippin is slippin to come out of this prison I'm livin Hey there hey there friend of mine Won't you help me out this one last time And be there won't you there be there for me Hey there hey there friend of mine I don't deserve the time you'll find But be there won't you be there for me Our weekend used to be a whole lot of freedom Two bottles of Tussin gotta be the DM I don't mean to be a heathen But believin' in Eden aint gotta be the meanin' of life I've been meanin' to write but I've been deep in this hole These demons at night always fienin to fight Keep a hold of my soul I don't evenknow when I might Find my way out this weighted this hated page of my life Time to turn it I might earn it tonight Hey there hey there friend of mine Won't you help me out this one last time And be there won't you there be there for me Hey there hey there friend of mine I don't deserve the time you'll find But be there won't you be there for me

Preachers on the podiums speaking of saints Prophets on the sidewalk begging for change Old ladies laughing on the fire escape Cursing my goddamn name I got a basket full of lemons they all taste the same A window and a pigeon with a broken wing You could spend your whole life working for something Just to have it taken away for nothing People walk around pushing back their debts Wearing paycheck like necklaces and bracelet Talking about nothing, not thinking 'bout death Every little heartbeat, every little breath People walk a tight rope on a razors edge Carrying their hurt and hatred and weapon It could be a bomb, or a bullet or a pen Or thought, or a word or a sentence There ain't no reason things are this way It's how they've always been and they intend to stay I don't know why I say the things I say But I say them anyway Ain't no reason things are this way It's how they've always been and they intend to stay I don't know why I say the things I say But I say them anyway Prison walls still standing tall Some things never change at all Keep building prisons, gonna fill them all Keep building bombs, gonna drop them all Work your fingers bare to the bone Break your back, make you sell your soul Like a lung that's filled with coal You don't even know your suffocating slow The wind blows wild and I may move The politicians lie and I am not a fool You don't need no razor or a three piece suit To argue the goddman truth They air on my skin the world under my toes Slavery stitched to the fabric of my clothes Chaos and commotion wherever I go But love yep I will try to follow here we go There ain't no reason things are this way It's how they've always been and they intend to stay I can't explain why we live this way We do it every day Ain't no reason things are this way It's how they've always been and they intend to stay I don't know why I say the things I say But I say them anyway Feedback
