Colors Of Discipline Lyrics - Long Division - Rustic Overtones

(D. Gutter) 

I heard the doctors on the street 

who say their prescription's great 

send my condolences to the kid who springs 

to buy his brand new brain 

you'll be big on the streets with friends 

better steal some money or you're alone again 

your hopes and dreams are like a beach 

where water has dried to sand 

Your colors have all gone away 

colors of discipline white to gray 

your vision will be black someday your ambitions will be lax someday 

like a dog lets rub your nose in the mess that you made 

how about your kennel for a couple of days 

it's yourself that you played 

scratch past the scab over the wound that you made 

It won't go clean, so you just let it bleed 

you may have destroyed the flower 

but you still have got the seed 

-chorus- 

If I had the time to give you a piece of my mind 

I'd kick you out of my life 

but just the same with your fame 

your friends may think you're great 

your friends are the ones with the sharpest haircuts 

and guns and they'll beat me up if I'm not the right punk 

in the right club today 

-chorus-
