Lyrics

With nothing better to do,
No one to come home to,
I woefully conclude
To take it out on you.

I'm bored to the extreme,
This world of foolish dreams.
Disillusion,
I am not who I seem to be.

Yeah sure I might do harm
And bear my right to arm,
Retribution,
If only someone would listen to me.
Listen to me,
Listen to me,
Listen to me,
Listen to me.

A room, an empty shelf,
A book on mental health,
I look for inner wealth,
By punishing myself.

I'm bored to the extreme,
This world of foolish dreams.
Disillusion,
I am not who I seem to be.

Yeah sure I might do harm
And bear my right to arm,
Retribution,
If only someone would listen to me.
Listen to me,
Listen to me,
Listen to me,
Listen to me.

The shooting happened about a year before this song was written. 11/01/2010 at 01:10 Agreed, I'm pretty sure Greg wrote this about the columbine shooters.

(As) Bakura Lost Pilgrim Location: Argentina Status: Offline Posts: 29	Quote I think it's about a boy who is excluded by his friends because they think he's a bad person. He's bored because he has no friends, or if he has they don't like him, but he's not like that, it's just they don't know him well, and he hurt people without the intention to but people don't understand him, nobody listens to him and that's all he needs. In the second verse as he feels so lonely he starts to become crazy and hurting himself to feel better. 04/25/2010 at 08:18 I think it's about a boy who is excluded by his friends because they think he's a bad person.
