Stress Builds Character

Matt Parrillo, Dino Sommese, Todd Kiessling

Y'know sometimes, sometimes I feel so tired
I can't eat I can't sleep
So tired
The pressure builds and builds
Seems like there's no release
The things I see go unnoticed by some
But fill my eyes with horror
Anger, and guilt, and frustration, and depression
Makes waking up every day harder and harder
I work my fingers to the bone just to survive
I gotta get money so I can have a home
So I can breathe, eat and live in this society
I don't even like money
And I gotta work every day just to feed myself
God it makes me sick
I just wanna curl up into a hole and die
This, this isn't worth it!
I need a raise man!
I can't survive on this pay anymore!
I can't live on this!
I'm hungry, and I'm frustrated
And I can't eat, dammit!
God! I look for you to help, and I don't see no help
And I see no thoughts, no looks, no praise!
You don't care, you don't love me!
I only love myself
No one will love me like I love me

Life's been swell now I want to die
My body, it hurts me, sigh after sigh
I call it torture, you call it life
A slave to money and everything I despise
Like everyone in general
Fuck, eat, sleep, destroy
Just about the only things you fucking enjoy
I am a disposable being who will fuck all life
I multiply and the air gets thinner and dirty
I take up space, I smell, I consume
But I produce nothing, I abuse
I have no reason to exist
The toilet's clogged in this world of shit

I breathe filth everyday
Living fucks up my brain
Why? Why did I wake up today?
My eyes are heavy
Why? Why must I see this face?
Your life is ugly
Why? Why must I buy these things?
I don't want them
Tension, tension
Frustration, alone
Tension, despair, tension
All these pressures on my life
