I hold my head up for seventeen hours a day
and it's tearing my neck, thread by thread
twenty years old and getting older yet
I can't find the strength to do an-y-thing
just hope for change and keep everything the same
ever jaded jihad
what are you fighting for?
keep on forgetting
it's all pointless anymore
another grain of sand slips through my hands
they're beat to shit and bleeding
times pass, they pile in the glass
as lights burn out decieving
and seasons shift but winter's fist
held no fuel to warm the core
I can't raise care anymore
it's all just weight on my back.
ever jaded jihad
what are you fighting for?
keep on forgetting
it's all pointless anymore
gratification comes instant now
one way or another
but it doesn't last, it's gone fast
disappearing altogether
all that's left is a weak attempt
amount to nothing less
no swing no miss hit by the pitch
lay my bones to rest
ever jaded jihad
what are you fighting for?
keep on forgetting
it's all pointless anymore
