Worthless in meaning
I’d climb higher and higher
Until the roof caved in
Now I’m treading through water
Trying to find what’ll make
Me whole inside
But nothing can focus
All of my pain into artistry
Shit through the eyes
Of a mild creator
Chasing a dying dream
Everything I have done
Everyone I have lost
Never compares to the story I’ve dropped
I only want you to see
How I view this world
Ruled by hypocrisy
Everything I have done
Everyone I have lost
Never compares to the story I’ve dropped
I only want you to see
How I view this fucked up world
That lives off me
I won’t be anyone’s martyr
I’ll die for a reason that no one believes in
For one more look at you
I won’t be anything
I can’t be the only one
I hold my heart out
Till the second that the
Last drop hits the ground
Now I am awakened
It’s not until I spill my guts
Along the pavement
That you will reconcile
Why can’t you recognize
The power of fact and
Beauty in violence
I am the shepherd, the common man
The messenger of fate and worry
I put the words in the serpent’s hiss
That’ll dry you out
And make you sorry
I preach the word of your common values
The truth you can’t un-see
Everything I have done
Everyone I have lost
Never compares to the story I’ve dropped
Everything I have done
Everyone I have lost
Never compares to the story I’ve dropped
Points made through suffering
You’re alone can’t you see
Everyone around you thinks
The same damn thing
Can’t you see how
The night grows nearer
Filling out the sky
Lost again, still you try
To wish it all away
Can’t you see how
The night grows nearer
Filling out the sky
Lost again, still you try
To wish it all away
Wish it away
Worthless in meaning
I’d climb higher and higher
Until the roof caved in
Now I’m treading through water
Trying to find what’ll make
Me whole inside
