lyrics

LEFT ON RED

It's going to be sundown
right on the eve of your birth.
Go West, go down with the Sun
to the Earth.

So you got tired?
Why don't you take the easy way out?
Just go ahead...
Just blow your brains right out!
(Be that Pollack on a smashing white wall)

Oh, you tried to tell them, but they never seemed to understand.
'cause what the fuck do they know about holding your Dad's gun to your head?
Saw the world in Black and White
so go and take that shot
maybe do something right.

No one is going to see you, so no one is ever going to see you again.
'cause no one here gives a fuck about you.

Trepidation/premonition
right before your eyes.
Trigger finger on the barrel of a .45
So you got tired?
Why don't you take the easy way out?
After all, everyone has a little chemical imbalance.
(Serotonin, where the fuck have you been?)

Oh, you tried to tell them, but they never seemed to understand.
'cause what the fuck do they know about holding your Dad's gun to your head?
Saw the world in Black and White
so go and take that shot
maybe do something right.

No one is going to see you, so no one is ever going to see you again.

'cause no one here gives a fuck about...
(at least they never seemed to give a fuck about...)
So I'll give them something to talk about
'cause who the fuck would ever give a fuck about you?

but when you're dead, they miss all those things you did.
when you're dead, they will miss all those things you did.
when you're dead, they miss all those things you did.
when you're dead
when you're dead
when you're dead
