-Get It Off Your Chest

That fleeting glance hit me
like a stab wound from across the room
Oh bloody hell
it's gonna be one of *those* nights again...
Time to get up, stand up
fall down on the floor
 
Crawling across the shards
but bleeding within and not without
wanting to scream wanting to shout
fuckfuckfuckfuckfuckityfuck FUCK!
Dirty whore's got a way of talking
makes me wanna turn on the TV
and drown out the buzz of alcohol
sip on some Coke
skin a live rabbit
violence ain't the answer, it's the question
a question I raised in a fist of fury
unleashed the hate on myself
because it wanted to be happy
The shit's going down
'cause Newton says it can't go up
Try hard to defy
and circles become squares--
though you still get nowhere
just keep finding yourself in different corners
of your cardboard Pandora's Box
Wanna eat your Cheerios with a silver spoon
and have the sun shine out yer ass nightly?
Don't we all, my fickle friend, don't we all
