Penny Royal
Strip down bear soul,
On top of power chords,
The boredom you know,
Knocks the audience out cold,
More punk and less roll,
Rapid fire control,
The stardom they choose,
Was just part of the show.
In time,
Your lines,
Deeper meanings defined,
And the lie,
You believed,
Wasn't worth suicide.
Alone on the stage,
Free bird in a cage,
Though your sensitivity shined,
You hid it with rage,
You grew weary each day,
Hearing all of them say,
You would have traded away,
For the quiet you ached.
In time,
Your lines,
You believed was your crime,
And the fine,
You assigned,
Shouldn’t have been suicide.
When the shit hit the fan,
We all remembered again,
That you're only a man,
Who in time couldn't stand.
All the people who won’t,
I’m so glad that they don’t,
All the people who won’t,
I’m so glad that they don’t.
In time,
Your lines,
You believed was your crime,
And the fine,
You assigned,
Shouldn’t have been suicide.
