about

"It's meant to prey upon the idea of what a home really is in modern American society. What is informing your American dream? It seems so ass backwards that a status driven culture is more concerned with how big their house is, or how much shit they have when there are plenty of people that sleep on the street and beg for food. You'd think the status sought after would be one of a good samaritan, but what do I know?"
-Johnny

lyrics

They say home is where your heart is
wont someone tell me where you go
when your pulse is MIA
and your blood is turnin cold
From the backseat where I sleep
to some other persons floor
This aint livin but it aint dyin
Im just cryin out for more

They say "Feed American Dreams"
with dollar signs to blind your eyes
but if you're living for tomorrow
you're living for a lie
So shake me won't you please?
pick me up from off my knees!
Cause you loose your voice from begging
when no one can hear you scream

I always said i was gonna be Nothin but Trouble
but you never wondered why
You always said i was gonna be 6 ft. under
and now i know why
