One false step
and you're a goner
falling through the trap door
mother like daughter

looking for the key
but you swallowed it up
they'll stomp you in the ground
like a cigarette butt


All hands on deck

were looking for the big one
such a train wreck
thought you said you had a golden thumb

this is just a phase
in this storybook life of

passion and rage
marching on over the strife
