A suicide pact
A lit cigar
And a new way to sing along
In a dying c**ture that feeds on the blind
And waits for the lethal sickness
There's a boy out back with a gun to his chest
Like it's the only way to relieve stress
Then the c**ture dies and it leaves us blind
In the wake of our resistance
Boy if you step outside
You'll never make it
The world can be a bitter place sometimes
You better just stay inside
Boy if you step outside
You'll never make it
The world can be a bitter place sometimes
You better just stay inside
A case of hard facts and no one knows
Not a d*** thing can be exposed
In this world of ours where we're living in hope
Despair's where we keep our wishes
Not alone or afraid
But afraid to recite
The words you hear and the wrongs you right
This world is ours but we're only in charge
Of our lives and how we live them
Boy if you step outside
You'll never make it
The world can be a bitter place sometimes
You better just stay inside
Boy if you step outside
You'll never make it
The world can be a bitter place sometimes
You better just stay inside
Today's abused
What is there for you
Just rise above the few
That lay in stone
Trying to obtain
An idol to betray
Besides there's so much on the line
Don't take a step back
Not one more step back
Boy if you step outside
You'll never make it
The world can be a bitter place sometimes
You better just stay inside
Boy if you step outside
You'll never make it
The world can be a bitter place sometimes
You better just stay inside
Boy when you step outside
You gotta face it
The world can be a bitter place sometimes
But you're gonna be just fine
you're gonna be just fine
you're gonna be just fine
you're gonna be just fine
Boy don't step outside...
Boy don't step outside...
