to survive in the game man you gotta be lame
you need a half-broken ego and a bottle of pain
killers that you're dosing on nightly, rightly
you might be losing your mind slightly
here's a tip

don't stop running the race
even when you feel your heart pumping in your face
not even when you drink yourself to sleep every night
for the last month straight

man there's gotta be more to this Life

but it seems that the best in me is covered by the rest in me
the shit that's piled over, freedom covered by a quest for things
trained true from birth to search for greed and suddenly it's so plain to see
it's within me, and everyone i meet

the mark it came to me with rain, and clothes were gone
but i had no shame, oh no
i slipped and fell and bled and, sane, i laughed 'cause it was all the same
the pain contains nerves in your brain along with those beside your veins
and blood is red, and the mark of cain is black on those who spit refrains
the calling felt deep within your bones as, broken, you sing softly of homes
of candles lit against backdrops stacked
the stars poke bright hope through the cracks

but all alone, you drill your dome with T.V. dinners and processed scones
newspapers black with lines of dread, they all get paid to report the dead

playgrounds all perfect
no more metal slides to toughen hides, to toughen hides
so little to know all the ones you need
are right next to you, fast asleep

so, wake up quick, your breakfast is cold
and don't give up before you feel too old
the oyster's there

you know your pearl

the young at heart will save the world

  • awsome video its truth....

  • i was putting your age around 30, maybe 25 at the lowest... the "old farts" vid showed an intellect that most boys don't access until after that. feh... i hate it when i fill in the blanks like that. fucking filters...

  • oh no need for apologies

    i realized early on you thought i was an 18 year old boy--most do....

    my sister says no woman in her right mind would call herself pennilesscripple (which i take as the highest compliment)

    so i didn't straighten you out as i kinda enjoyed it ;^)

    i was called 'dude' and 'bro' until i 'came out' with my video 'three answers'

    which gave certain youtubers a whole new pallette of words to use against me....

  • thnx! so, wait... now you're multiples? Buggerin' Buhda, i'd just accepted one state change, now gotta do quanta, too?

  • (i think most folk eschew mountain talk on teh w3rbz... i totally heard the real in that; that's a proper Belle's sincerest. NOW i fully believe gurl. Dunno how i went awry, 1000 apolinas.)

  • Beutiful Work/Play....Keep living outloud....

  • That was so dope. You guys are awesome. RESPECT!!!

  • i enjoyed
