new ego - last to the worm lyrics

[derek]
you’re a new face living in a new place
ain’t n0body knows you’re packing bodies in that suitcase
new look, new voice, and new name
but no matter where you go, you’re still playing in the same game

look ’em in the eyes. make ’em realize
that you’re better left alone, that you won’t pick up the phone
at the end of the day, they know that all they’re gonna get
is another busy tone and a heart of regret

he saw a man in the white light
telling him he shouldn’t fight
telling him to stay away
he met a man in the dark night
told him it’d be all right
“keep your demons back at bay”
and then he stepped out of the cold frost
felt that it was all lost
but he knew he’d be okay
now he could start fresh
cutting out the abscess
he didn’t need to be afraid

doors locked – n0body’s going in or out
gun’s c-cked – n0body better move about
sit tight; i think he’s about to lose it
he’s got the power and he’s not afraid to use it

i heard you want to get to know me
well, i’ma push you away
don’t come here acting like you know me

i’m sure you know what it’s like
been around trying to figure out the meaning of life
but you can’t because there are winners and then losers alike who want to take advantage of the people living in strife –
that’s the plan
i’m not saying hate the world or fight back; i just think that everybody should just sit back and relax
because the world ain’t going to change
the stiff ways in which it looks at you
just change your att-tude
new ego, we will getcha through

letting go of everyone he already knows
pushing everyone away before they even get close
he’s too afraid to be a friend, let alone a lover
he knew a traitor once; he’d rather not befriend another
he’s got his eyes on the dark skies raining on him
he shies away as the looks of people fall upon him
what do you expect with that pessimistic mindset?
does he even know if he’ll really fall behind yet?

[verse 3 – suburban truth:]
look at him –
the hermit, the recluse, the lone wolf
it’s him against the phone book
don’t look, he’ll probably stare
you’ll have to acknowledge he’s there
and act like you honestly care
and that’s a suicidal choice
i never heard his voice
’til he made the suicidal choice with the audio recording
i never knew him, so the mourning is boring
i’m only moaning till four in the morning
okay fine!
i admit i can’t sleep
these bad dreams; i’m seeing him scream on a blank screen
kool-aid in my canteen, i consider
drunk liquor, gunk fill up my lungs thicker
lunatic once a month, scratching lunar ticks
pray to an illuminated crucifix
now you dismiss  all the feelings i used to miss
i shoved him in a locker the day before
finally fall asleep
and i’m seeing him calling me
as i’m running he follows me up into the opening of a hollow tree
he said “don’t bother crying in shame, i ain’t die’n in vain
“kick the social super heroism before you die in vein.”
i’m a human sacrifice, i’m a statement
i’m the spider that’s spinning a web in your bas-m-nt
i already showed the world my pain
everyone’s going to know my name

i forgive you
