Schoolyard freaks are freezing, down getting teased again

I'm looking back and down and watching it go by

Down at the stockyards cattle screaming, the trains squeak by again

I can feel my breath and I'm so thankful I'm not one of them



The sound of the ground freezing is pounding once again

It comes with the wind that once wiped off our smiles

Alarm clock bells are screaming out the same routine again

Scrape open your eyes, rise and fucking shine, 7 am



Sit down, dead weight, and wonder

Unsure, unslept, uncovered

The new light of dawn discovered by ungrateful eyes,

Through 5-3 eyes



Schoolyard freaks are freezing, pushed to the ground again

I'm looking up and west for black to fill the sky

The sound of bottles breaking still breaking in my ears

They opened just in time to empty out and gouge away the years



Sit down, dead weight, and wonder

Unsure, unslept, uncovered

The new light of dawn discovered by ungrateful eyes,

Through 5-3 eyes



Schoolyard freaks are bleeding, down getting kicked again

I can taste the earth and feel it in my eyes

The sound of cattle screaming, still screaming in my ears

They came in metal coffins -

chained me up and hacked me off my years



Sit down, dead weight, and wonder

Unsure, unslept, uncovered

The new light of dawn discovered by ungrateful eyes,

Through 5-3 eyes
