( Abstract to Me)
To Run and Hide
Is not abstract to me
I know the ups and downs
But I just can't turn this life around
Su-i-cide
Is not abstract to me
I know the ups and downs
But I just can't turn this life around
Su-i-cide
Is not abstract for me
I know the ups and downs
But I just can't turn my life around
But Iiiii
Feel like a psychopath
Cause I just can't do the math
Why iiii
I feel no connection to those who surround me
Or who can see what I can see
But Iiii i'm
Feeling like a psychopath
And I just can't do the math
Cause I feel no connection to those who surround me
Or to those who can see what I can see
Su-i-cide
Is not abstract to me
I know the ups and downs
But I just can't turn this life around
There's an emptiness inside me
That I decree just can't be pleased
Su-i-cide
Is not abstract to me
I know the ups and downs
But I just can't turn this life around.

I see suicide as a means to an end
But a group plan would be nice
Your secrets, you won't need to defend
Let communication be your vice

To stand up on stage in front of you
Has taken all my might
I know I'll fail to follow through
I know I'll lose this fight
Don't call it a fight, call it a beating
Call it life without a friend
Call it life without meaning
Call it days without an end

[Nature Walk]
Danger signs,- Alert me to - a short, tranquil road
That ends in, a clearing, shallow brook, rope, and swing
My facial lines, - are amirrorred to - my heart's heavy load
Cheap rope, you need a good kick to jump off the damn thing

I'm as lost, as I'll ever be
But those waves are hip notize ing me
Freezing cold, but eye-catching
Travel guides don't help a damn thing

(Leavin' treatment)
I left treatment a wimp
I left treatment a weaker man
All this wakings givin' me a limp
All this talkings givin' me a plan
I'd go out and meet my fellow mad man
And ask them over again

How their day was going
How they'd have any idea of knowing
How my future would for me would be
"Do you want to go out with me"
In both sense of the word
It's a stressed "out" I wish they heard

But now my pleas have been taken
And now my knees are shaking
I never thought it would actually go down
I never thought I'd live to be around
But my gut reaction is to talk things out
I guess I never knew what my mad men were about
