6 days on the road now, all gone to my head Take the time to drop me off down by the river's edge Saw my reflection, clear as day Nothing looking back at me 'cept a dead man's gaze 6 days and a month now, I'm out on my own Lost my mind along the way, and everything's gone wrong One question buggin' me, one thing I don't know Is who the hell'll remember me when I'm six feet below? 6 days to remember, and a life to forget For all the clouds, my silver lining, it ain't happened yet So what's left to keep me here, well not much it seems But I still got my dignity, I still got my dreams 6 days and a year now, I'm out on my own Lost some friends along the way, and everything's unknown One question buggin' me, one thing I don't know Is who the hell'll remember me when I'm six feet below? 6 days and a year now, I'm out on my own Lost my mind along the way, and everything's gone wrong One question buggin' me, one thing I don't know Is who the hell'll remember me when I'm six feet below?

You think you're friends with everyone Cause you laugh at every word they say You talk about your big ideas But nobody looks your way You buy ugly designer clothes While your friends they can't afford to eat You live in an expensive condo While we're shufflin' here through the streets Son, you need to leave my home I'm a no direction man, everywhere I go I hate my generation They think they got it figured all out They don't know what they're livin' for Or even what they're talkin' about They do what everybody does They speak like everybody speaks And when I tell 'em it's all wrong They shout at me like I'm some freak Son, you need to leave my home I'm a no direction man, everywhere I go

My Hometown 04:34
When your hands are black, and your back's been cracked And your thrift shop's been selling you burlap sacks When you reel in your catch and it slaps you back You know you're going to my hometown When you scream at the walls in your bathroom stall And there's no one there to help you make sense of it all When you walk under a bridge and you hope it falls You know you're living in my hometown Ooh we're going to my hometown They're gonna mess you around Yeah we're going to my hometown We're gonna take you down When you're workin' your hands just to impress the man And you're only apartment's an old Chevy van When you're feelin' like trash at the base of the can You know you're going to my hometown When you can't figure out what your life is about And the drunks down on 8th start to scream and shout When you're living on grass and on farm runoff trout You know you're living in my hometown Ooh we're going to my hometown They're gonna mess you around Yeah we're going to my hometown We're gonna take you down Knock 'em dead

Open your eyes and turn out the lights You know I want it that way Will we make it through the night Or will we fade to grey Runnin' in and out of time To find a way to survive Taking the lowest low to new heights Without a reason why And if the sky burned out at night Would we see the morning light? Morning light Can't you see I'm just like you? Look into your mirror Let's keep doing what's familiar Lemme make it clear You can't make me bow like your dog You can't make me kneel You can't terrify my people You can't feed the fear And if the sky burned out at night Would we see the morning light? Morning light And if the sky burned out at night Would we see the morning light? Morning light

Final Breath 05:43
Where have I gone? Was I even trying to hold on? Can't write or speak the words I feel Can't cry out loud for fear they'll hear Outside, the world awaits In here there's only my mistakes Down and out inside my head To helplessness a conscience wed Pondering and eremite He slips the chains of Aphrodite To exchange them for the words of gods Inside an open door Insomniac, in black and white, Takes to the street Keeps watch at night Stepping softly back He takes a final breath Life and misery Power off, decreasing frequency I pray I'm not asked to explain When giving up's all that remains

Laid to rest among the living I feel there's no place to turn I'll be the victim no longer I got my bridges to burn, yeah I've never been the one to step out of line I've found the answers to the thoughts on my mind All I wanted was that sweet, loving girl All she wanted was more diamonds and pearls Make you burn Make you burn The feeling's gone away forever She'll never see me again She'll never know what she's missing I'll make her burn in the end, yeah I've never been the one to step out of line I've founds the answers to the thoughts on my mind All I wanted was that sweet, loving girl All she wanted was more diamonds and pearls Make you burn Make you burn

I ain't afraid of death If I'm close to you Now, I can't see no way For us to make it through So just sit, back, woman And enjoy the view You know that nothing's gonna change The things you make me do You're the only thing keeping me sane But now They've made me forget your name Devil's coming faster now, Got me begging please Panic's taken over me Caught me ill at ease I'm not the man I used to be They shook him out of me But I'll always be searching for you We'll find a way to be free, yeah You're the only thing keeping me sane But now They've made me forget your name

Jen Says 04:52
Jen says that I'm too mature to be with her She thinks that I'm too boring to please her So lost, she doesn't know what she's after She wants to live life a little faster I ain't growing down I ain't growing down I ain't growing down For you For you For you For you Jen says that I can't live in the moment She thinks that my way of living is torment So far, in time maybe I'll be more open If not, I guess I'll forever be broken I ain't growing down I ain't growing down I ain't growing down For you For you For you For you

Disappear 05:02
Forever confined, in space and mind Come away with me if you can Come away with me if you can We'll break the walls that keep us here, and disappear A path is made for those who fear, to disappear Entrancing divide, engulfing inside Come away with me if you can Come away with me if you can We'll break the walls that keep us here, and disappear A path is made for those who fear, to disappear Eternal escape, before it's too late Come away with me if you can Come away with me if you can We'll break the walls that keep us here, and disappear A path is made for those who fear, to disappear
