lyrics

I think you all understand me
At some point or another, I think everyone tries to take his life
They all seem so happy
But in every high school class, someone's got to be picked last for gym
You may be low but you're never alone
There's always someone willing to pick up the phone

But then you hear
"Bottoms up!
Kill yourself."

There's so many voices in this world
How can we know which ones to trust?
There's so many choices in this world
And we keep making the bad ones
There's so much confusion in this world
Everyone wants to be the 'it' girl
So if we get swept up by the world
We're gonna get driven straight to madness

I see the Hell all around me
Thanking God daily that he always seems to hold me high
Being bad is faddy
But when rock bottom's hit, the only direction left is, go up
I may be low but I'm never alone
There's always someone waiting to welcome you home

But then I hear,
"Toss your pants,
Be a clock"

There's so many voices in this world
How can we know which ones to trust?
There's so many choices in this world
And we keep making the bad ones
There's so much confusion in this world
Everyone wants to be the 'it' girl
So if we get swept up by the world
We're gonna get driven straight to madness

Monday's morning talk show
Is Tuesday's eleven o'clock
Wednesday's evening magazine
Is Thursday's headline shock
Friday's up-and-coming
Is Saturday's EAS
And Sunday, holy Sunday
Well, Sunday is the day of rest

Be as strong as you can be
You know what's right even if it isn't selling in high demand
Let's crash the market
Take your neighbor by the hand, help him carry his big banner proud
He may be low but he's never alone
We people go together like butter and scones

But then you hear,
"Rest a while
Sin a bit"

Listen to the small voice
Listen to the still voice
Listen to your conscience
Or listen to the Holy Ghost
Listen to yourself
Listen to your true friends
And you'll never ever ever
Have to ask yourself again

There's so many voices in this world
How can we know which ones to trust?
There's so many choices in this world
And we keep making the bad ones
There's so much confusion in this world
Everyone wants to be the 'it' girl
So if we get swept up by the world
We're gonna get driven straight to madness

about

Kevin Calaway Seattle, Washington

I could while away the hours conferring with the flowers, consulting with the rain - but who has time for that? I regulate my mood with musical catharsis and publish my diary on the internet for the whole world to hear, wearing my heart and my influences on my sleeve like a man who really needs to do laundry. ... more
