Sometimes life's a vice and god seems like he's Joe Pesci And sometimes your soul is sneezing but there's no one their to bless thee Sometimes you feel overwhelmed and you wonder what would be the best thing? To wake up and find solutions and give up and continue resting The camel's back is broken so you use the straws to sip his poison You reminisce of careless days with cartoons... but you were just a boy then You remember the days when waking up was not a chore And calculate the possibilities if there's really anything more You wonder how your family is... mom's just a voice away As you pack your bags for heaven in hopes to stifle all the pain Your carpet soaked in brush strokes of vomit sweat and anger When you tried to divide your life with pills to see if you'd be the remainder You tried to board the train of life but you overslept and missed it The morning a broken man tried to take his own existence
Every night you wept tears acid but no one noticed the corrosion or the blasts of shrapnel from when your heart began exploding All the forks in the road but all you wanted was a knife Or a spoon to cook your demons and free base them down your wind pipe The morning you cut in line for an express ticket to your creator You ripped apart the stairs to heaven and installed an escalator You pawned off your innocents and deep fried your magic beans Life flashed like deja vu as you deposited all your dreams But the bank teller is closed now and you've written your last check A dark robed man, holds out his ravaged hand and says, "I don't believe we've met..."
Door cracked, in crept the light The sirens: flashes blue and white All your saviors you tried to fight But god turned on his brights And you going to live to see tonight The doctors pump the demons from your stomache In a well of depression; can’t see above it When life brings hurdles you must learn to jump it You saw black sails and chose to jump ship Selfishness gave in, you hit eject… like you were nothing
From your family, your friends, loving strangers to those existing unaware To all the sleepless nights, worries, warm thoughts and loving prayers We council, plead and beg you and we feel our offer's fair Remove that escalator and promise to reinstall the stairs Because to muzzle all your torments doesn't stop the world from spinnin Your treated your troubles like a grenade but you refused to keep the pin in You transcend from an angel to demon and plague all the people that made you Leave them with questions of, "Why?" and "What didn't I do to save you?" The realization smacks and beats your family and they plead, "What did my little boy do?" The depression becomes hereditary and they might just think to join you
Again...We council, plead and beg you and we feel our offer's fair Remove that escalator and install those fuckin stairs Remove that escalator and install those fuckin stairs Don’t you dare try to tell me that there’s no one here that cares Or that all your tirades will fall upon deaf ears Cause you have my attention and I don’t even know your middle name Nor your home town that now symbolizes your life with rain I watch you sleep now, I watch you sleep in invisible chains Your mental foundation has weakened; you must rebuild it while in restraints I hope that when the smoke clears from this death you’re soon to rise Not many have walked within your shoes, but some might fit your size I hope when this is over you’ll bare a complimenting smile Reflect on your mistakes and replace your painted carpet with tile Piece your life together and realize what you’ve done Learn to jump those hurdles, throw grenades and replace your pain with fun And always put your faith in those you truly love Don’t waste your breath on gratitude… To all those that rescued you… They just answered a call from the landlord above
He said don’t worry about the rent this month The skin suit’s free I’m glad your still with them Because it’s not your time to be with me…
