Alert The Audience! Lyrics

The song Alert The Audience! is performed by The Lawrence Arms in the album named Greatest Story Ever Told in the year 2003 .



Pa*sive, Aggressive, Confessing, Repressive
Structurally uncertain, transparent, transgressive
i've stumbled into something and i don't know what it is.
All I-beams, bolts and plaster, corners painted in piss.
Mistakes are the brakes that i'm cutting on me.
Fast down the hill, impossibly free.
Faster and faster, i'm burning the gears.
My tears are streaming back into my ears.

My enemies i knew too well, they bickered amongst themselves.
I have a rule, that i love to break.
It ends in tears, cursing and shakes.

I'm a clown and i'm choking on blood, teeth and toungue.
F**k the spectators, f**k the "he was so young"
F**k forced sympathy through lifeless gla*s eyes,
Povichian voyeurs drinking my cries.
F**k faced trilobites waiting to die.
I can't stand the humor, and i can't stand the lies.
