Lyrics

Almost, almost, almost, almost, almost had to start a fight
Don't know, don't know, don't know, don't know how to react, so I won't
What do, what do, what do, what do you do when you are provoked?
When does, when does, when does, when does, when does something stop bein' a joke?
Caught up, caught up, caught up, caught up in our morbid, modern lives
Adapt, adapt, adapt, adapt to the void, then, if you must
Into, into, into, into this perverted the status quo
What if, what if, what if, what if I've grown tired of bein' polite?
Why am I searchin' for reason?
I'm in the chaos dimension
Reason's eclipsed by tension
I want, I want, I want, I want not to feel numb about death
Finding, finding, finding, finding peace is not an easy task
Breathing, breathing, breathing, breathing to see if there's any left
Reading, reading, reading, reading about how many people died and
Can't someone tell me the reason?
I'm in the chaos dimension
Trapped in a brutal invention
If it stops, I'm, if it stops, I'm, if it stops, I'm havin' a bad dream
In and out of patience
I just can't keep it around
Most of mine's been taken
Is there a finite amount?
Had a little left, but I gave it to you
Now someone's at my door, and he needs some too
Lightin' up my phone, darkenin' my mood
And all I got left is this shit attitude
At least music's playin' in my head
If it stops, I'm, if it stops, I'm, if it stops, I'm havin' an unshakable nightmare
In and out of patience
Don't have enough to share
Sometimes on life itself
I'm neither here nor there
The MTA took the first of it
Twenty-minute delay wasn't the worst of it
Saw it underground, you could burn to death
Now you're right on time to take what I got left
Funky music playin' in my head
If it stops, I'm, if it stops, I'm, and if it stops, I'm countin' on you
This next's one is called Freebird II
