Lyrics
The other day I took a walk downtown
And saw a friend I used to know
A time ago
Before she sold herself out to be loved
I looked at her, she looked at me
How could I ever have believed
She was the one I wanted?
She was the one I needed?
When I look at her I see
What I despise
I hate the lies
She tells herself
She never thinks for herself
Now I feel a firey rage
Welling-up inside my head
For what I’ve said about myself
I get in bed and relieve myself
Maybe tomorrow I will buy myself a gun
And go to school
And kill the fools
I’m forced to listen to
Day after day
If they knew what I was thinking
They would know I can’t stand
What they stand for
Terror took the boy that day
He didn’t know what he should say
Or what he should do
Should he set it straight?
Should he take the bet they’ve set?
You know he will not do that
Time goes so very slow
When you’ve got nowhere to go
And nowhere to hide
From your enemies
