Federal Building Uprising Pt.2 (The 24th Fret)

The sun descends to the final horizon line
Clown cars race in circles all around me
She says that my love's overpriced when it's free
How much would you pay not to kiss a swine
Even if that swine had a soul
Even if that swin played rock and roll

Rock and roll

From the 24th fret to the noose
How much of a man is left after the fall
How much of a man is a dying recluse
How long before they decree
That there was never a man at all

Stretching the limits of Pity's binding rope
Shame has entangled me with his deadly skill
And makes me gulp down Pride's ever bitter pill
Can you see the big picture through a sniper's scope
How deep can you cut before the truth itself bleeds
How can you distinguish the flowers from the weeds
