Yet another song.


They said the grass was greener, on the other side. But I checked, and it's a goddamned lie~

Just as grey, either side of the fence. And it tastes, the, same. Another day, and another test. Gotta play, the, game. Running round in circles, chasing my tail. If I'm just being told, what to do, how can I succeed or fail?

Say hello, Say goodbye. Living life, until you die. Gone as a blur, into the dirt. Closing your eyes, and feeling the hurt...

The said the grass was greener, on the other side. But I checked, and it's a goddamned lie~

Just as grey, either side of the fence. And it tastes, the, same. Another day, and another test. Gotta play, the, game. Running around in circles, chasing my tail. If I'm just being told, what to do, How can I succeed or fail!?

Look around you, what you see. Is everything, as it should be? What's out of place, and why is it wrong? And why's everyone else, just playing along?!

Why's it so hard, to do the right thing? We know what is, yet we keep avoiding. The path we know, on which we should stay. What in our nature, keeps leading us astray?

In this world, everthing's against you. Keep trying, don't let it get you down. Spirits up, eyes ahead. You must weather the storm!
