Its a Means To An End

Fall in Fall out of favor
Fall in Fall out never waiver
Fall in Fall out of history
It ain’t no God damn mystery
Why the self doubt 
Makes you want to scream and shout

Fall in Fall out of misery
Standin and Waitin for a delivery that never comes
Never hesitate but I might
Obliterate 
Self destruct Holdin onto that rabbits foot
For good luck

It’s just a means to an end
Tying me up 
Weighing me down
Same old records playin all over town
Refusing to bend on a road that never ends
Waiting for some free and easy breeze
To carry me
As self destruction 
wages it’s war on me
