Not Lost Just Profound
they say punk is dead
I must have missed the memo
was never the sharpest tool in the shed
still partying like it's 1999
checking out the teachers
swore she was giving me the look
everyone is so politically correct now
overly sensitive
must be the electronics fucking with their heads
showing my age again
when I scream the party never dies
the future is a trainwreck
take me back
back to when the only worries we had
were having fun
driving fast and drinking late
making out with Ms.Chainsaw behind the bleachers
she sure did cut me deep
writing suicide notes and hitlist
transforming them into poetry
parents said I was hopeless
lock him up and throw away the key
nah, I was too wild for them to catch
one step closer to the edge
jumped off and woke up in 2020
a shout out to the dead
some days I don't know how I survived
I cherish the love that is beside of me
hold close the faith that keeps me going
but that's all that is worth anything
I say throw this shit year in the trash
I'm going back
