about

I can a bit more clearly remember what this one was supposed to be about: it was a self-criticism of my poor social routine as a teenager, my bitterness at often being overlooked or excluded from things, even though I made little effort to get involved with people.

The style of this track is a teensy bit of a hat tip to Korn, which I was very much into at the time.

lyrics

They say that you are ugly
They say that you are strange
Participate in theory, but
Not in practice these days

Let petty words destroy you
Let rage build up in your heart
Sit down your pen and paper
You've got a fight to start

So find your place, or
Be replaced

No one who feels just like you
Everyone licks your wounds
Sit alone and cry sometimes
For things you never do

No one will hold your hand now
No one will feel ashamed
You've reached your last decision
It's time to place the blame

So find your place, or
Be replaced

And now there's a thoughtful
Look in your eye
And now you will always want
To despise
Since no one listens to you anyway
You ain't gonna change
