Everybody wants a piece of some easy enterprise

And this is how we measure the cost of enjoying the pain of 21 years of good living

When you look at me do you see someone with a future?

One day you will learn there is some beauty in the thing that makes you sweat

Sleeping on the rocks and stones

Waiting just to die
