LYRICS
As I walk through the streets of my new city
my back feeling much better, I suppose
I've reclaimed the use of my imagination
for better or for worse, I've yet to know
but I always knew you'd be the one to understand me,
I guess that's why it took so long to get things right.
Suddenly I'm lost
On my street
On my block
Oh why, Oh why
Oh why haven't you been there for me?
Can't you see, I'm losing my mind this time?
This time it's for real, I can see
The tops of trees are turning red
The beggars near bodegas grin at me
I think they want something
I close my eyes, I tell myself to breathe
and be calm.
Be calm.
I know you feel like you are breaking down.
I know that it gets so hard sometimes.
Be calm.
I'm scared that everyone is out to get me.
"These days before you speak to me you pause."
"I always see you looking out your window."
"After all, you lost your band, you left your mom."
Now every single crack, every penny that I pass,
says I should either leave or pick it up
But with every single buck I've made
I'm saddled with bad luck that came
the moment I was baptized
or when I found out one day I'm gonna die
if only I could find my people or my place in life
and when they come a'carolin'
so loud, so bright, the theremin
will lead us to a chorus
where we'll all rejoice and sing a song that goes:
Oh be calm.
Be calm.
I know you feel like you are breaking down.
I know that it gets so hard sometimes,
Be calm.
Take it from me, I've been there a thousand times.
You hate your pulse because it thinks you're still alive
and everything's wrong
It just gets so hard sometimes
Be calm.
I don't remember much that night,
Just walking, thinking fondly of you
Thinking how the worst is yet to come
When from that street corner came a song
And I can't remember the man,
The panhandler or his melody.
The words exchanged had far exceeded any change I'd given thee.

Feb 6, 2012 - Funny shit will be the day when you like this kind of music...only so much Slipknot to be heard before a pubescent troll can like before it gets old...you're young give it time...your tastes will wax and wane depending on your mood, s.e.c., momentary lifestyle choices, etc...have a great day...from a f.a.h.

Feb 9, 2012 - Funny how most of you people are here because of their new hit song. fuck yourself. your not a fun. fan.

Feb 9, 2012 - @MEGASEXYMAN2000 because, why not?
cmerun42 Says:
Feb 9, 2012 - I can't stand it when fucking hipsters claim people aren't "fun. fans" for liking their recent success and deciding to see more stuff the band has done. Don't be hating on people like that, just be glad that a good band is actually succeeding. When I saw that they had a huge hit like "We Are Young" I was happy to be able to say I saw them before it, sure, but I was just as happy to see that they had become popular too. (Let the bashing begin, I guess.)

Feb 4, 2012 - @RapIsForMorons And, pro tip, the moment you point out you're troll, you no longer are, and you are a terrible troll. A troll's mission is to be constantly undercover. If you want to be successful, keep cover, and actually be clever. Being a dickweed is just being a dickweed, nothing more.
