Wasted No Recess Lyrics

From alleyways to gutters, from happiness to pain
Everything will leave its mark, you can´t wash off THE STAINS
Something´s telling me to put an END to all of this
Yet it´s too late to think of all the chances that I´ve missed
I´m messed up. I´m RESTLESS, broken and so fragile
Drunk on monday morning in the shadow of the sun
I´m not sure how low I´m going, but the only way back is up
I just leave my mark in the questbook then take off
Some of us GROW UP and some grow old

I´m leaving to a PLACE yet UNKNOWN
In here there´s NO RECESS
I´m leaving to a place yet unknown
Where the SPARKS OF HOPE still havent´t died

So many different places, a lot of blurry memories
Where I´ll crash tomorrow, no one really knows
Sometimes it´s hard to wake up from the bed of NAILS
I need a vacation from all the insanity
But I´d rather be a free man and CONTROL what I do
Than a SLAVE in a f___in cell and wallow in bitterness
When I stop to think back and sum this all up
I would change a day, even the ones that were so f___ing rough
Got my head held up high with NO REGRETS

I´m leaving...

In the times of self-destruction, I HATE MY LIFE and wanna throw it away
But still I won´t change direction even though this path AIN´T PAVED IN GOLD
Into the unknown that´s where I´m heading
I´m on a quest for a PLACE CALLED HOPE
Into the unknown, my destination
Of something to call my OWN

I´m leaving...
