Narcissist

You’re a narcissist
A decoy analyst
A shiny object that can only see itself
Imagine this
Yeah you’ve lost all control
There’s nothing that you don’t know
You’re digging up the dirt
And water’s about to overflow
Your position
Your disposition
Is going nowhere fast
And we all can see
Your direction
No sense of vision
All you see is all you see
And all you see is you and nobody
You’re an egoist
A bully full of shit
Everyone surrounding you
You that they can all see it
No one really cares
Or do I even dare
Speak freely or is that not even fair?
I don’t wanna hear it anymore
I don’t wann a hear it, I don’t wanna hear it
All the words you say behind closed doors
It’s your ship so steer it
Face it don’t fear it
What ‘s it gonna take?
To shake you awake
And rehabilitate
Cuz I don’t wanna hear it anymore
I don’t wanna hear it!

What’s The Big Deal

What’s the big deal anyway?
I can’t say that I care
Just burn it all right to the ground
I can’t say you were there
(Put your pints in the air)
Don’t piss if it’s on fire
Let it be how it was found
Is anybody out there?
Is there anyone around?
No sense in losing your mind again
It is what it is as it always has been
No problems here I’m just the messenger
Second guessing just what it is I’ve been delivering
All in all just a minute too late
Because I’m still waiting
Pack your bags because we’re all in
And finally I’m contemplating
Round and round we go
So this is how it’s gonna be
Well loosen up because it’s driving me crazy
Right now I’m drinking like it’s Saturday
Let’s spend the rest of the night in this controversy
Landing on my own two feet at the end of the day
But I’m still waiting
Counting down to eternity goes with
One, two, one, two, three so
So burn it all right to the ground
Do what you feel is right
There’s something to be said
About the one’s who stay and fight
Don’t piss if it’s on fire
Let it be how it was found
Then sift through the ashes
As they fall to the ground
Some sweet day when they return to life
And flourish with all new intent to remind
What’s been has been
And what is in the end
What’s here and now
Is I’m still waiting

Busted

Why do I keep punishing myself?
It can’t be for the one’s I love or my health
The focus out of focus is hard to see
I guess I’ll do it one more time instead of facing me
Because I’m out of my mind and I don’t have time for this
This is my life
You just don’t get it
Out of mind
Out of time
You just don’t get why I just keep punishing myself
It can’t be for the one’s I love or my health
I want to be I want to be here for my friends
I want to be here for the better and the bitter end
I just want to test it all
I just want to push and fall
No reason why
Push the limits until I die
I just want to test it all
Because I’m out of my mind and I don’t have time for this
I’m out of control and I’ve lost my mind for this
I’m out of my mind and I don’t have time for this

Authority Zero

Give me a second chance and you take one back
Yeah you take one back
There’s no authority given to me
It’s all for you
Why must you change your mind?
Time after time you tell me what to do
And how to do it
There’s no authority in our lives
You don’t like me
And you I despise
The world grows bigger every day
All to you my authority stays away
You can’t do this
And no you can’t do that
Don’t dress that way
Now take off that hat
Should I listen to you?
I really seem to doubt it
And no I won’t forget about it
You toss me around
You put on my funny nose
I look like a fucking clown
Throw me up and bat me around
Jump on my side
Now pound me down
With authority zero
