SUBURBAN SCUM LYRICS

1. Hanging By A Thread

Crucified again and again for all of my sins.
I see no light, only darkness.
Can't stand the fucking state we're in.
All I want is peace for eternity.
Life is torture, so it seems.
Life prison set me free.
I'm trying to break these shackles and chains,
Every time I open my eyes all I see is agony.
The streets flood in disbelief of what we've become.
This world is a graveyard lying under the sun.
We're so fucking weak.
We're just begging for mercy, as our lives are erased.
We'll just suffer forever, then we'll be replaced.
Every man for themselves inside of this living hell.
We're so fucking weak.
We're so fucking weak.
Buried alive.

2. No Justice

Every time I try to breathe something else strangles me.
Filled with pain to the top.
All I feel is empty.
I've got too many questions that you can't answer.
I've got no faith.
Wasting time on my knees.
I'm living in vein.
What the fuck have I done?
If all men are equal,
Why do I look above?
Too many times I've closed my eyes and prayed to die.
Life's so unforgiving, I'm wondering why.
Is it that you hear me and turn your cheek?
Do I pray to a ghost who I'll never meet?
I'm living in vein.
What the fuck have I done?
If all men are equal,
Why do I look above?
I pray and I pray.
You never answer me.
Are we just waiting to die cause there's no justice?
I've been shown no love from the Heavens above.

3. Nature Of The Beast

Everyday life gets harder to find serenity.
Evil thoughts just weigh me down.
It's all depression, my disease.
All I want to do is live without an ounce of insecurity.
Chained to my mind.
That's the nature of the beast.
I've never felt so hopeless,
At the end of my rope.
I've never felt so desperate.
Life's taken its toll.
I've spent these days wasting away.
I can't be saved.
Why can't be saved?
Trying to breathe while self-pity swallows me.
It's like every step is one closer to death and I want to believe.
Believe that there's meaning in life.
I want to rise above the feeling of feeling nothing and never having enough.
I've spent these days wasting away.
I can't be saved.
Why can't I be saved?
Losing, losing, losing all I've ever loved.
I pray for the power,
The power to rise above.

4. Life Vices

Fear runs in all of us,
Deep through our bones.
Between these empty walls I called my home.
Every breath I take,
Every move I make,
Temptation awaits.
I hold my own,
Carry the worlds' weight.
I won't make the same mistakes.
I stand alone in a world that wants to bring me down.
I bow to no man.
These hands remain unbound.
I try and I strive,
But someones always pulling me
In the opposite direction of who I'm trying to be.
I'm tired of running away,
Running away from the pain.
I'm tired of inner demons depicting my fate.
I'll never let my life slip away.

5. Wall Of Stone

As the distance between us grows,
Love still remains.
But I can't settle for tainted love.
I built this wall and doused the flames.
I watched the world pass their judgment.
I buried the blame.
As days go on,
I grow stronger and accepted change.
I am the wall of stone.
I am the wall of stone.
Alone, I felt so alone,
So I took that feeling and built a wall of stone.
Tired of putting you before me.
I fought our demons on my own.
Sometimes my knees grow weak knowing what we'll never be.
I let the memories sink and now I'm set free.
I am the wall of stone.
I am the wall of stone.
But maybe you're not to blame.
I knew you were fucked before I asked your name.
So maybe I've earned this pain.
You're no worse than the rest,
The fucking problem was me.
I let you do this to me.
Every second we shared,
Like a shot in the vein.
Left with nothing but shame,
I put you under this wall and carved your fucking name.
Pick my heart up off the floor because I'm worth so much fucking more.
I am forever.
Dead to me.
