When misery found company it quieted the stance
Loneliness reminded him, "this was not our plan."
Jealousy beat sympathy 'til he could barely stand
Loyalty torched dignity, burned him up and he ran
There's nothing worse than a radio edit
Girls' fashion's callous, the standard is angry
Blown-out conversations about nothing at all
With boys who hover at the bar
Like vultures indulging in a war
Agony told apathy, "You ain't even s***."
I used to hang with terror when fear was still a kid
Vengeance is circling back, he's gonna torture on demand
My only hope is memory, is someone will forget
There's nothing worse than the chance you're not taking
People complaining couldn't live without complaints
A public execution is a solitary death
There's a freeway to memorize expense
In some ways you never catch your breath
But ignore it and we'll see how bad it gets
Eventually we'll meet again with time more "worn" than "done"
Tried to be the better man, the best I did is run
We may see our blood shed in a storm of distant death
Attendance at your funeral, there's not a thing you don't expect
All by your lonesome, watching bottles on the wall
Broken down by morning, pouring through the door
If Jesus ever gets here, he's gonna sort you out
There's a freeway to memorize expense
In some ways you never catch your breath
But endurance is the one thing you respect
