Lyrics
Hey kid (hey did)
Do I have your attention? I know the way you've been living
Life so reckless, tragedy endless, Welcome to the Family
Hey, there's something missing
Only time will alter your vision
Never in question, lethal injection, Welcome to the Family
Not long ago you find the answers were so crystal clear
Within a day you find yourself lilving in constant fear
Can you look at yourself now, can you look at yourself?
You can't win this fight
In a way it seems there's no one to call when our thoughts are so numb
And our feelings unsure
We all have emptiness inside, we all have asnwers to find, but you can't win this fight
Hey kid (hey kid)
I have to question, what's with the violent aggression?
Details blurry, lost them too early, Welcome to the Family
Hey, why won't you listen?
Can't help the people you're missing
It's been done, a casualty rerun, Welcome to the Family
I try and help you with the things that can't be justified
I need to warn you that there is no way to rationalize
So have you figured it out now, so have you figured it out? You can't win this fight
In a way it seems there's no one to call when our thoughts are so numb
And our feelings unsure
We all have emptiness inside, we all have asnwers to find, but you can't win this fight
Here for and all mankind, I've lost my mind
Psychotic rounds in rabid dementia, I won't be fine
I see you're a kind who's been dethroned, cast out in a world you've never known
Stand down, place your weapons by your side, it's our war in the end, we'll surely loose but that's alright
So have you figured it out now? So have you figured it out!?
In a way it seems there's no one to call when our thoughts are so numb
And our feelings unsure
We all have emptiness inside, we all have asnwers to find, but you can't win this fight
Deep inside where nothing's fine, I've lost my mind
You're not invited, so step inside, I've lost my.....
Deep inside where nothing's fine, I've lost my mind
You're not invited, so step aside, I've lost my.....
