Stay Inside (Album Version)

A suicide pact

A lit cigar

And a new way to sing along

In a dying culture that feeds on the blind

And waits for the lethal sickness

There's a boy out back with a gun to his chest

Like it's the only way to relieve stress

Then the culture dies and it leaves us blind

In the wake of our resistance

Boy if you step outside

You'll never make it

The world can be a bitter place sometimes

You better just stay inside

A case of hard facts and no one knows

Not a d**n thing can be exposed

In this world of ours where we're living in hope

Despair's where we keep our wishes

Not alone or afraid

But afraid to recite

The words you hear and the wrongs you right

This world is ours but we're only in charge

Of our lives and how we live them

Boy if you step outside

You'll never make it

The world canbe a bitter place sometimes

You better just stay inside

Today's abused

What is there for you

Just rise above the few

That lay in stone

Trying to obtain

An idol to betray

Besides there's so much on the line

Don't take a step back

Not one more step back

Boy if you step outside

You'll never make it

The world canbe a bitter place sometimes

You better just stay inside

Boy when you step outside

You gotta face it

The world can be a better place sometimes

But your gonna be just fine

Boy don't step outside
