Let me tell a story About this kid that I knew He left his house in the burbs And now he's submerged His life is in a bag Now a two dollar rag And I'll ask him How does it feel Who's your real friend The guy on the corner trying to catch the trend You can do better than that Take a look around you Your living like a rat brat Started out young on a street so old Walk around the block Ten years been sold I'm in a coffin And the door is closing I'm dying dying Lost in time trying to get back to nowhere Now you've been around What is it that you found You never took a chance Never gave a second glance Like a dream you never wake up from And your life has just unspun So what's up with that You just don't give a damn What about your family I'm your family man I'm in a coffin And the door is closing I'm dying dying Lost in time trying to get back to nowhere So what about the days Laughing about nothing But now you spend your time Thinking you could have been something Isn't it sad You were so bad You were hard-core I thought you were hard-core man I'm in a coffin And the door is closing I'm dying dying I'm in a coffin And the door is closing I'm dying dying Dying, dying, dying Lost in time trying to get back to nowhere
