Stay Inside

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 could be a bitter place sometimes
 It's better just stay inside
 Boy, if you step outside
 You'll never make it
 The world could be a bitter place sometimes
 It's 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 is where we keep our wishes
 Not alone or afraid, but afraid to recite
 The words you hear and the wrongs you right
 The 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 could be a bitter place sometimes
 It's better just stay inside
 Boy, if you step outside
 You'll never make it
 The world could be a bitter place sometimes
 It's 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 could be a bitter place sometimes
 It's better just stay inside
 Boy, if you step outside
 You'll never make it
 The world could be a bitter place sometimes
 It's better just stay inside
 Boy, when you step outside
 You gotta face it
 The world could be a bitter place sometimes
 But you're gonna be just fine, you're gonna be just fine
 You're gonna be just fine
 You're gonna be just fine
 Boy, don't step outside
 Boy, don't step outside
