So I see how it works   We're all just a bunch of jerks   suited to our own reality      With the standards of hate    we consistantly berate   hoping that nobody will see      Survival does depend on us      It is painfully clear   We are nothing   Without a scab to pick on   Without a rock to kick on.      It is painfully clear   We want something   We want a ground to spit on   We want to think that we're strong.      So I see how it works   Distance can have it's perks   It's best to stay just out of reach.      With the standards of hate    we consistantly vasilate   Avoiding the lessons that teach      Cause we are transparent   and we have feelings   and being transparent   means being revealing.      So many things we want to master.   So many question that's to ask.   But we're so afraid that they'll take us to task now.      Gonna take you to task now.      It is painfully clear   We are nothing   Without a scab to pick on   Without a rock to kick on.      It is painfully clear   We want something   We want a ground to spit on   We want to think that we're strong.
