All Or Nothing
Pennywise · All Or Nothing [2012]
with my lead boots nailed to the floor
dancing the best that I can
Sweets-took the pain away
I saw a cold death at the end of the line
so I started to pray
Up towards the sky but knew no one would
answer me. I asked the trees why they
grew toward the sun. I asked the clouds
and they rained down bad luck on me
Oh my god why hath thou forsaken me
I asked the teachers who taught me rules
to obey. I asked the gaes and prophets
through time. Came up nothing but
a hole where my faith had laid no
reason, no rite... nothing feels fine tonight
crime it was a price to pay
I found the hole world as guilty as I
It took the danger away
Hate-it was so easy to do
You just directed all your anger at fear
and then you follow it through
I went to churches and schools to decide
for me. I went to prophets to plea for
my life. Went to my parents who gave
this dark life to me. I don't need to
I don't want to. I don't want to
wonder why. If you don't want to
hear my problems well you can fuck
off and die. You do not know. Dont
say you know. Give me some answers
fpor my life... now got some explaining to do
I've got to come up with solutions in time
before my future is through
Hope - for my new promise today
Still I got this strane feeling that
time is slowly slipping away...
