I never learned how to read or write
but that's okay 'cause I know how to fight
I never learned how to play guitar
but that's okay because I'll never get far
I never learned how to be cool
but that's okay 'cause I dropped out of school
I still don't know what I want in life
maybe two kids a dog and a wife
I never loved I never lost
you could call me a fucking lost cause

My dad's a cop, and I'm blind in one eye
my life sucks, but I get by
I'm blind in one eye, and my dad's a cop
somebody please make the pain stop
8th grade sucked, but 9th will be better
I hope to god I don't get Ms. Wedder
the streets of Grand Forks are so unforgiving
Cherry Street, Cotton... Hard livin'
this song goes out to all my fallen brothers
too many tears from too many mother
the streets of Grand Forks are so unforgiving
Cherry Street, Cotton... Hard livin'
My dad's a cop, and I'm blind in one eye
my life sucks, but I get by
I'm blind in one eye, and my dad's a cop
somebody please make the pain stop

Come sit with me my old friend
we'll tell it like it is how it is in the end
come sit with me my old pal
we'll tell it like it is the only way we know how
light up cigars before I get there
we'll surf the pavement without a care
times like this I love to reflect
on all things I chose to neglect
but I don't care anymore
no I don't care anymore
when I lost you I lost it all
felt like a little child without his mom at the mall
maybe one day they'll get what they deserve
but until then I'll just sit in reverse
'cause I don't care anymore
no I don't care anymore
such a young soul gone to soon
tears in my eyes before it hits noon
maybe one day they'll get what they deserve
but until then I'll just sit in reverse
'cause I don't care anymore
no I don't care anymore
come sit with me my old friend
we'll tell it like it is how it is in the end
come sit with me my old pal
we'll tell it like it is the only way we know how

You're asking to much of a dumb punk kid
who already knows what he already did
you're asking too much of a dumb punk fuck
I'm sorry man, but you're shit out of luck
you've never fucking kissed a man
so I doubt you'll ever understand

Why do you ignore my calls?
why do you wanna see me fall?
why do you spend so much time
on something you hate, something you despise?
I live a life of lies
a handful of truths
what I despise
