lyrics

Part 1

Everything you cherish and hold dear to your heart
Will one day take a shit on you and fall the fuck apart
And if you're asking yourself how I know this to be true
It's because for 30 silver pieces I would probably betray you

Like Judas Iscariot I might just kill myself
I hate the fucking world just like everybody else
Disappointment and depression that's all we'll ever know
In a world where Limp Bizkit tryouts include Rivers Coumo

That's right folks you fingered your first love to Fred Durst
So instead of asking why I'm sad now you'll just know why it hurts
So many things since then have fallen apart
I can't masturbate to the Blue Album or call my music art

Everybody in the world is only looking out for themselves
That's why they sell anarchy patches on Hot Topic shelves
Betrayal is an instinct in every human mind
"It's in my nature" said the scorpion, "I can swim" said man-kind

Part 2

Beaten down and broken, mistreated and concussed
Multiple stab wounds to the back by people we thought that we could trust
Like the time I ripped of AJJ unintentionally
In part one of this whole thing

Fucked up and used, tired and abused
Sippin' on the dregs of the only courage that I use
Scourged and scorned, why the fuck was I born?
The dichotomy of life and death has got me torn

When I wake up breathing, people tell me I should feel blessed
To wake up to corruption and wars, but I digress
It's like finding out your favorite, Insane Clown Posse
Is part of the whole evangelical Christian monopoly

Part 3

When we met I was depressed and sang lots of Johnny Hobo songs
I drank more than I ate and thought about how everything had gone wrong
Well now I'm drinking less and I've aged a little bit
But I'm still depressed, Pat the Bunny's dead, and Chris Clavin is a piece of shit

When the fuck won't I feel betrayed
By the people I've met along the fucking way
I rewrote this song again
Promising myself I'd write letters to all my friends
It won't be everyday, but I'll make god damn sure that I remember
To change the fucking font from Arial to Helvetica

'Cause if there's one thing I learned from being with you, it's the type of fonts that I shouldn't use
Because Arial is just a re-rendering of Helvetica, they stabbed right in the fucking back
Just like the people I looked up to when I was a kid

When the fuck won't I feel betrayed
By the people I've met along the fucking way
I rewrote this song again
Promising myself I'd write letters to all my friends
It won't be everyday, but I'll make god damn sure that I remember
To change the fucking font from Arial to Helvetica
