I've been gone from the scene a minute
had a lot of life to live
i've been through four addictions
i've been through four girlfriends
i'm not bagging on the life you're living
but life is more than handshakes in basements
i've learned to walk away
from those who won't kiss back
when you've lost everything
you learn what means the most
i hear you've got a new perspective
i see you've got a new last name
but you're just another person
who loved me then turned away
i'm beginning to sense a pattern
better turn heel to save face

I've taken bullet rides going 75 down main street at 2 am
done coke and dope, screamed "shoot the pope," drank 'till i could not stand
and like you all i believe in how nothing can stop us now
so why the fuck would you just us when your life's so miserable?
the streets are ours to dance in
so let the crazy out
go hard as fuck
'cuz for some of us
this is the best it's ever gonna get
these streetlights are the light that i have basked in all those days
at 4 am a king i am with a crooked, cocky smile
when daylight breaks and squares awake i'll still be on my throne
so why the fuck would you judge us when your life's so miserable?

No matter the ribbon or trimmings, it's just a package
a little something from you to me. tongue in cheek sweet irony
sprinkle glitter, hide the rips and the tears, can't make that smile match
you know what's coming next. used 'till your final breath.
...and that's the way that it is
a false sense of progress
what's a little self-degradation to get the job?
what's giving in, what's giving out, what gets you off?
never matter the situation, you've the tools for the task
mirror, mirror got a crooked smile
watch the eyelids drop

You left me behind
for the promise of a better life
a path through you i find
no ladder too tall to climb
a friendship once so strong
shattered when you did me wrong
i won't rest until
i crush you like so many pills
innocence unfound
oh so profound
ill gotten means
so much you gain
betrayal all so
intricately planned
your next step to get ahead
was all that i ever meant
our world's are much the same
simply on a different stage
and i'll never look back
you got me with the sneak attack
the biggest prize i'll claim
to beat you at your own game
a war between former friends
a war that will never end

I've put you through a wooden table
crushed your spine through a barricade
when you were wheeled away on a gurney
i was the one to push you off the dock
i'm not finished
this is just beginning
i'm not finished
it's only the beginning
I'M NOT FINISHED WITH YOU
I've kissed your face with the steel steps
pushed you into an ambulance
you keep on saying that you're the big dog
well i'm the one who's gonna take you out back
monster
among men
big dog
defeated
