Learn life in the ways of insolence
The Devil doesn't know
If taking a step forward
Or to the side
Is worth anyone's while
Even the aged taste crisis
Pulling hair out of the cortex
Dye it black to love the past
Shorter it goes
The easier it gets
We arn't 17 forever
Not even the fun we had together

Suits from the Warehouse
Expensive threads that are valued
Cars take us miles
Stacks of envelopes piled

Lost within the paper men
Women washed to pretend
Among the sea of paper men.
Children taught to pretend
Among the sea of paper men.

Learned our lives from our parents
Your father doesn't know
That your passion is dented
And heart is stained
Maturity seems to kill creativity
It's only one to extremity
You may think forward is the path
But not if you forget your past
Or put it in last
Innocence eaten by ignorance
Blessings cursed by sins
We are little heathens

Accounts not kept track of
An invention never heard of
Love takes us higher
Letter and a fireplace beside them

Lost within the paper men
Women washed to pretend
Among the sea of paper men.
Children taught to pretend
Among the sea of paper men.

I'm just going to add this, it's pretty much about the same thing, except with more of message to a subject, or person.

Devil's Spawn

Tap a line into the past
Ask for the youth to everlast
Put time into a cast
Play with our angst between the rats
Make this past everlast
Everlast

Yellow streams of the cancer spread
Question my mortality between the dead
Ghosts of life pulled from the stream
Pray to God thier Karma redeemed
In Jesus they believed
Believe

Love is early until dawn
You know you're right
When you're the Devil's spawn

Forgiveness not granted 'til action
Drown in pride and satisfaction
In every ounce of perfection
Is sweat, scars, and segragation
Kill for domaination
Arbitration

Love is late by dusk
You know you're right
When you're the Devil's spawn

You have me down on my knees
I beg to be redeemed
You have me glued to my knees
Because you know everything
My lips are sealed
Until my sins are repealed
I eternally kneel
Until you want to cut a deal

Because I'm always wrong
And you're right
(You're right)
