I was feeling a lot at the time that I wrote this song. It refers to a lot of different things. It actually only took about 30 minutes to write.
"Just like this mother fuckin hell that we live in The fuckin government takin everything that it’s given Making people feel like shit like it’s not even worth livin Cause in the eyes of a Christian you’re always just sinin"
I was talking about how the government and all their bull shit laws put people who dont belong in jail, in jail, or they just make your life hell. I'm also tired of America being based on christianity, all of them acting perfect like they did nothing wrong, like their religion says to do what their doing. ex: bush going to war.
"There’s too much shit in this government system Where the people they protect are the potential victims From the time of your birth to the time of your death They’ll make sure you die without anything left They don’t give a fuck about the US of A They’ll let you fuckin die in the bed that you lay A corrupted young system that doesn’t know when to quit Creating people out of hatred and their heads full of shit Busting into your homes taking you out of the chair that you sit Saying it’s time you put your part into the country a bit"
The government has gone too far, to where they dont even protect the people that are suppose to be running it. They dont care if you die, rot in a cell, or live on the streets as long as they get their shit done. They'll drag you from your homes to put you in war, but they wont even protect us when our rights are at hand.
"So now I hide underground like the Wiccan religion The burning of the witches can never be forgiven For thousands of years they forced us to stay hidden As they walked around acting like a perfect Christian My body holds more than it can even contain Just one fucking thing stops me from going insane A crazy mother fucker who’s about to loose his brain Has the girl of his dreams to keep him sane"
I'm comparing how I have to hide from the law and keep things low with Dallas to the Wiccan religion, how we have to hide our practices cause their 'morally' wrong. My body is getting close to a point where it's holding so much inside from me and others, that it's getting hard to ground any of it. The only thing that stops me from my body completely dying or my mind going insane is Dallas. The girl of my dreams.
"Through the eyes of a stranger I was a man who sinned Blazing in the dark putting holes in their friends Until the day came when I said all of this ends So I packed my shit to go home again But at the burning of the marsh a couple nights before I left He tried to kill my friend so I put a hole in his chest After I left I didn’t know what to do An hour later found he had died at a quarter til 2 A 16 year old boy trying to live up his life Now lies dead on his chest with a knife"
I was referring to Canada. If you didn't know me, a stranger, you would see me as a kid shooting at people for no reason. I got tired of it while I was there, so I decided to leave and come home. Before I left, I went to a swamp that was on fire, where greg tried to kill my friend, so I stabbed him in the chest.
"They got me locked up like an experimental slave My souls almost gone almost too late to save Only her and I know what it is that nature had gave Meditation is addicting a drug that let’s you behave I don’t need any meth to keep me up in a cage My marijuana keeps me high when I’m up on the stage Tearing up this government shit at the start of their page"
They have my mind and heart locked up. Unable to see my lover or express anything to her, unable to communicate with her. They have my mind locked, to a point where I can hardly practice my own beliefs. Nature gives a lot of things, but love being it's purest. Meditation can clear your mind, let you think.

"There’s too much shit in this government system
Where the people they protect are the potential victims
From the time of your birth to the time of your death
They’ll make sure you die without anything left
They don’t give a fuck about the US of A
They’ll let you fuckin die in the bed that you lay
A corrupted young system that doesn’t know when to quit
Creating people out of hatred and their heads full of shit
Busting into your homes taking you out of the chair that you sit
Saying it’s time you put your part into the country a bit"
