a suicide pact a lit cigar and a new way to sing along in a dying culture that feeds on the blind and waits for the lethal sickness there s a boy out back with a gun to his chest like it s the only way to relieve stress then the culture dies and it leaves us blind in the wake of our resistance boy if you step outside you ll never make it the world can be a bitter place sometimes you better just stay inside a case of hard facts and no one knows not a damn thing can be exposed in this world of ours where we re living in hope despair s where we keep our wishes not alone or afraid but afraid to recite the words you hear and the wrongs you right this world is ours but we re only in charge of our lives and how we live them boy if you step outside you ll never make it the world canbe a bitter place sometimes you better just stay inside today s abused what is there for you just rise above the few that lay in stone trying to obtain an idol to betray besides there s so much on the line don t take a step back not one more step back boy if you step outside you ll never make it the world canbe a bitter place sometimes you better just stay inside boy when you step outside you gotta face it the world can be a better place sometimes but your gonna be just fine boy don t step outside
